Chapter 329 Rescue Plan Enters Qian
Therefore, when I heard that Yan Qifeng and Gongsun Yang had suffered a setback in Hengzhou...
Without saying a word, he simply waved his hand.
During this period of fighting, Yan Qifeng and Gongsun Yang's armies in Hengzhou...
Not only did they not suffer any casualties, but they also received support from the Nightshade Army in the rear.
Instead of decreasing, it increased, going directly from 60,000 to 80,000!
Now it was Wei Qing's Imperial Guards' turn to suffer.
In the recent battles, Yan Qifeng has been incredibly disgusting, taking advantage of her numerical superiority!
As night deepened, in a wilderness area within Hengzhou, a large number of Imperial Guards sat on the ground.
Wei Qing, Huo Qubing, and Ran Min sat around a campfire to discuss military matters.
At this moment, their faces were filled with solemnity and worry.
"The current situation is extremely unfavorable to our army. The Night Fury army has an absolute advantage in numbers, while our army is suffering continuous casualties and there is no hope of reinforcements."
"If this continues, the situation may become dire."
Wei Qing sighed softly, looking worried.
He certainly didn't want his debut battle to end with him losing because he was less skilled than others.
The problem was in logistics.
"The general is absolutely right. The Night Fury army has greatly increased its strength, while our army is fighting alone. With the strength of the enemy diminishing, it is indeed difficult to resist."
Upon hearing this, Huo Qubing, who was standing to the side, also frowned deeply on his handsome face.
"These Night Furies are really going too far!"
"Are we just going to sit here and wait to die?"
Ran Min, on the other hand, had an angry expression on his face.
"I have a plan that may solve our army's predicament."
"General Li Jing conquered Qizhou with hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, and now 200,000 troops have returned to Cangzhou."
"If we can obtain some reinforcements from our lord, our army can regroup and fight the Nightshade army again."
Wei Qing took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
Because Li Jing had already conquered Qizhou, and with the Prince of Qi captured, most of the counties in Qizhou surrendered without resistance, and the remaining troops of the Qi army were mostly taken over by Li Jing.
Therefore, including the Qizhou army that has been received and the Cangzhou army that was originally under Li Jing's command, Li Jing's army in Qizhou has reached a staggering 300,000!
Therefore, after leaving 180,000 troops to maintain order in Qizhou and guard against the Tiger King.
Li Jing sent his entire army of 200,000 elite troops back to Cangzhou to serve under his lord, Su Ye.
Therefore, the military force within the territory of Cangzhou is still quite sufficient.
"That's feasible! Cangzhou was already well-defended, and now we have a large army under our command, plus Cangzhou isn't far from here."
"If we can get some more assistance from our lord, our army will surely be able to turn the tide of the battle."
A glint of light flashed in Huo Qubing's eyes.
"Since that is the case, I am willing to personally return to Cangzhou to explain our army's predicament to our lord and request reinforcements."
Ran Min thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
"The journey to Cangzhou is long and arduous, and the Night Fiend Army has many spies. If the general goes alone, there may be unforeseen circumstances."
"I think it would be better for Qubing and I to discuss writing a letter together, detailing the current situation of our army and requesting that our lord send troops to reinforce us."
Wei Qing pondered for a moment, then shook his head.
"What the commander-in-chief says is absolutely right. We will immediately write a letter and send it to Cangzhou by fast horse."
Huo Qubing replied.
Once the agreement was reached, the three of them no longer hesitated and immediately took action.
The letter was quickly written, and Wei Qing personally located the hidden network that had been lying in the shadows.
I asked them to travel day and night to Cangzhou.
The night was hazy, and the moon hung high in the sky.
The carrier pigeons of the net took flight, soaring through layers of clouds and finally arriving at Su Ye's residence.
The carrier pigeon had a small bamboo tube tied to its leg, inside which was a letter from Wei Qing and the Daqian court requesting assistance.
Su Ye took the letter and read it carefully under the lamplight.
The contents of the letter made him frown; the northern front of the Great Qian Dynasty was in dire need of attention.
Night Fiend Army, led by Night Without Trace, swept through the enemy lines with unstoppable momentum, and the Great Qian's plans in the north were now in grave danger.
He put down the letter, stood with his hands behind his back, and looked out at the starry sky.
The moonlight shone on his deep-set face, reflecting a sense of calm and determination.
The power of the Great Qian Dynasty is now concentrated in Luzhou in the south and Yanzhou in the west, leaving the northern defenses as weak points.
As a Saint-level commander, Ye Wuhen's abilities should not be underestimated.
They also gained complete control of the hundreds of thousands of Night Furies.
Su Ye took a deep breath, her mind filled with a myriad of thoughts.
At this moment, I must make a decision to resolve the predicament of the Great Qian Dynasty.
He turned back to his desk, spread out a map, and began to study the war situation in the north carefully.
Cangzhou currently has 200,000 elite troops at idle, a force that cannot be ignored.
Su Ye knew that Ye Wuhen's military strategy was powerful, and now, because of the yellow robe, he had been promoted to a Saint-level commander.
Moreover, his Night Fiend Army is brave and skilled in battle, and is almost replacing the Yellow Turban Army led by Meng Zhang in Luzhou.
It became a major threat to the Great Qian Dynasty.
After all, Yuzhou in the northern frontier has been at war with the nomadic tribes of the grasslands for many years, and in terms of military strength, it has always ranked among the top prefectures of the Great Qian Dynasty.
Moreover, due to their proximity to the grasslands, the Nightshade Army also possesses the largest cavalry force in the Great Qian Dynasty.
In terms of cavalry, even the Nine Heavens Army, which combined the advantages of Yunzhou and Cangzhou, was no match for the Night Fiend Army, which occupied Yuzhou.
The Great Qian's northern defenses are now on the verge of collapse. If reinforcements are not sent in time, the entire northern defense line may fall.
However, Su Ye was not merely a regional warlord; he was also a shrewd strategist.
He had a long-term vision, knowing that this aid mission was not only about the safety of the Great Qian Dynasty, but also about his own future.
In this chaotic world, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies, only permanent interests.
At this moment, Su Ye had a sudden thought. He thought of someone—Si Luoying, the second princess of the Great Qian Dynasty, who was the person he was going to marry.
She was not only born into royalty, but also a woman with remarkable military talent.
Her arrival not only provided Su Ye with an opportunity to form a marriage alliance with the imperial court.
It also provided him with a legitimate excuse, an excuse to seek more benefits for himself.
"With Si Luoying's identity, I can temporarily be considered one of the people of the Great Qian Dynasty."
"So, when supporting the Central Region of Daqian, it's reasonable for my Cangzhou army to be a little less discreet, isn't it?"
Su Ye thought to himself.
He smiled slightly, a smile that revealed a hint of cunning and ambition.
After all, in this chaotic world, one must be cunning to survive.
The current Great Qian Dynasty is the best stage for him to accumulate strength and wisdom.
"My identity as Princess Siluoying is my best cover."
Su Ye pondered to himself, tapping his fingers lightly on the table as if he were thinking about the next move in the game.
He knew that this mission to aid the central region of the Great Qian Dynasty was not only to ensure that the Great Qian Dynasty would not be defeated so quickly, but also for his own future.
After all, the Great Qian Dynasty is currently in chaos, with all sorts of demons and monsters attacking it.
This includes both the Night King Ye Wuhen and the previous Flame King.
Su Ye should not make a move again and instead go to the five central states of the Great Qian Dynasty to make arrangements.
At that point, he won't even get a bone scrap, let alone soup!
