Chapter 692

A thousand Feilian soldiers continued to move forward, but when they came to the place ten miles away from Longya mountain, where the man on horseback was attacked just now, Yang Xuan suddenly waved behind him, and the people behind him immediately stopped. Yang Xuan turned his horse's head and clapped his hands at the people behind him. The soldiers immediately understood and disbanded, got into the grass on both sides of the hillside and disappeared.

About five miles behind them, turhao, who was lying in ambush in the grass, held his breath and stared at the movement on the pipe. Although Da Wei's army suffered a lot under the barbarian soldiers, turhao knew that this situation would not last.

He couldn't help recalling what the man in Black said to the Barbarian King when he was still the emperor capital of the barbarian not long ago. The man claimed that he came from a mysterious organization and would attack the capital of the great Wei Dynasty soon, so he specially asked manwang to be willing to attack the Xuanmen pass with them outside the Xuanmen pass when they attacked the capital, and win the Xuanmen pass in one fell swoop. After the man in black showed his strong and unparalleled cultivation, the man king agreed to the man in black's request.

It is for this reason that turhao chose to give up horse milk wine and attack Dawei in this cold winter. Things went very smoothly. Because there were insiders, the Xuanmen pass was quickly taken by the barbarian soldiers. Then, the barbarian army went down to ten cities, pushed 700 miles from outside the Xuanmen pass and hit the edge of the falling knife cliff. Only then did it suffer some obstacles.

However, if Da Wei was willing to take this as the boundary and not interfere with each other, it would be fine. However, judging from the resistance coming from Luodao cliff, it seems that things are not so simple. The strength of the other party's resistance has exceeded turhao's imagination, but things have developed to this point, and turhao can only harden his head and continue to fight.

But there is another important thing, because the barbarians are not a country famous for planting, so even if they did their best, they did not gather much food. Although the barbarians once suffered a great loss in Yang Xuan's hands and paid off 30000 Malay people to protect food, even so, a new crisis has quietly arrived.

There are 300000 troops in Xuanmen pass, including 20000 giant troops. However, because the land of Wei is fertile, it is almost easy to supply the food and grass of 300000 troops in terms of the amount of grain stored in the Treasury. Even if the food and grass of the border guards are cut off by them first, once they recover, the combat effectiveness of the border guards will recover in a short time. At that time, with the support of the natural danger behind them and the continuous arrival of support troops in the kingdom of Wei, it is only a matter of time for the barbarian army to be defeated. But on the other hand, look at the barbarian army. Because of the special domestic environment, although grain and grass can be sent continuously, the Barbarian King has written to turhao every day to ask about the resources after attacking cities and land, which makes turhao unable to tell.

It is true that turhao did get a lot of money from many squires and gentry all the way from the porch, but now he can't turn the money into ready-made food, and the money in his hand is a pile of scrap iron. Because he was anxious to go south, turhao did not have time to completely occupy the land he had beaten down. He could only roughly search every place and catch up with the border guards.

However, there is no food in the barbarian territory to support the front battlefield. The fresh milk and meat of cattle and sheep will be damaged during transportation. Although the temperature in the barbarian territory is very low at this time, the temperature will gradually increase as you go south. Apart from these foods that are not under consideration, only barley and highland barley can be sent to the front line in the barbarian territory.

Further north, except for the barbarians, a relatively large country, the others are small nomads. They are still brothers in difficulties with each other. Obviously, it is impossible to take out food to support the barbarians. When the overall situation is uncertain, it is even more impossible for the merchants in the state of Wei to take out their food and sell it to turhao.

Therefore, turhao must make the border guards lose their combat effectiveness in the shortest time. Only after occupying a large city can he stabilize his position, slowly negotiate with Da Wei and start preparing food. Now the ghost repair plan in the capital has failed. Although no specific news has come, turhao can roughly guess that the situation is wrong.

On the other side of Luodao cliff, the food and grass consumed by the 400000 barbarian army every day is astronomical.

Turhao sighed leisurely. They were born in a bitter and cold place in the north, and their materials are not rich. Therefore, going south is what they always have to do. But if they fought a war of attrition with Da Wei, they didn't have the family they could afford to drag with Da Wei.

You know, the border guards of Xuanmen pass have been stationed here for more than 20 years, but even in the year of drought, it has never been heard that Da Wei will not be able to provide food for Xuanmen pass. On the contrary, the troops of the barbarians often have to retreat for a period of time because of lack of food and grass.

In his mind, many things flashed in turhao's heart, which made turhao suddenly feel a little desolate. At this moment, the sound of horses' hoofs suddenly came from a distance. Turhao quickly interrupted his thoughts and was ready to start his last desperate gamble.

In the distance came the sound of horses' hoofs beating on the ground, and the creaking sound of the wheels of heavy carriages rolling on the ground. Tuerhao looked in the direction of the sound, and sure enough, he saw a row of ten carriages coming towards him. Turhowe did not know how many troops were left behind the carriage. Look at the quantity of goods carried on the carriage. If all the food transported on each carriage is grain, this grain is enough for 100 people for two days. If he remembered correctly, the person who sent him the message told him that the border guards at Xuanmen pass would send 1000 people to transport food. If there were two people in each carriage, it would be 100000 people's daily rations. This is not a small number. If we could intercept this batch of food, we might be able to help the barbarians delay one more day, So as to drag the garrison of Xuanmen pass to death.

One day is enough to do a lot of things.

Thinking of this, turhao made a gesture to his men behind him, and his men all clenched their weapons one after another.

The crowd held their breath and saw that these people and horses were about to enter their huge encirclement composed of 20000 people. Even if they endured the bone chilling ice and snow under their bodies, they did not move.
