Chapter 1026: An Arrogant Army is Bound to Lose

Immediately, someone objected. “This can only be done from the inside out. The army can’t…” Under the gazes of the people in the Imperial Library, his lips moved, but he couldn’t continue in the end.

Yu Zongshen waited for a while, but when he did not hear anything, he said gently, “Duke Xu is wary of the Imperial Court and knows very well that it’s difficult to make up for the deficit in the treasury. In terms of supplies, he will definitely have backup plans. There’s no need to worry. There are priorities. Compared to the Northern Barbarians entering the Central Plains, the matter of Thief Liang can slow down.”

Back then, in the case of the Ning Residence, other than the foundation that the Ning Residence had accumulated for many years being sent to the Yi Kun

Palace by the Empress Dowager, half of the assets had fallen into the hands of Duke Xu.

For many years, Duke Xu had relied on the tolerance from the court to form cliques for personal gain. Together with Elder Xia, he controlled the capital of

Zhejiang and the water trade in Zhejiang. Elder Xia had already fallen, but Duke Xu was still fine. In terms of wealth, the Xie Residence in Quanzhou would probably have to retreat.

The Liang resistance army set off from Rehe. Along the way, they passed by important food production areas. They gathered rations and military supplies along the way and recruited troops. They would not lack military supplies for the time being.

In the blink of an eye, it was March.

Zamo He couldn’t resist the strong advance of the You army and finally retreated.

Yin Huaixi took the opportunity to pursue.

When the news reached the court, someone criticized King Yue Fei for being arrogant, and that he should not chase after the fallen enemy. He should take advantage of the moment when the troops of the Northern Barbarians retreated to retreat into the narrow Yu Pass and reorganize the army to recuperate to fight later.

The cabinet issued a summons and ordered King Yue Fei to return.

General Lin relied on the fact that a general in the field was not bound by orders from his sovereign.

The rumors in the Great Zhou Dynasty that King Yue Fei looked down on the Imperial Court and was arrogant and would definitely lose became more and more intense. Everyone was worried about the war at the border.

At this moment, another report came from the North.

King Yue Fei led a thousand-man heavy cavalry deep into the grassland and attacked a few Northern Barbarians in the grassland, plundering some warhorses, armor, and rations.

The MO Saber users were the kings of land battles, and the heavy cavalry were undoubtedly the kings of the field on the battlefield. They were good at long-range expeditions. The requirements for the physique of the heavy cavalry were not inferior to the MO Saber users. Their heavy armor weighed more than 60 kilograms and they were armed to the teeth. The warhorses under them were all carefully selected and good warhorses. There was no need to mention that these warhorses could run a thousand kilometers a day, under the condition of carrying more than 200 kilograms of heavy armor. It was already very shocking.

The heavy-armored soldiers were good at spears. With a spear, they could knock people and horses to the ground.

They were good at attacking cities and plundering land.

This news was undoubtedly a slap to the faces of the court officials.

It also excited the hearts of the entire court.

The court officials suddenly realized that ever since the Great Zhou and the Northern Barbarians started fighting, they had often been passively defending and rarely took the initiative to attack. After all, the grassland was vast and the map was complicated. The Northern Barbarians were a hunting tribe and did not have a fixed place to live. Going deep into the grassland was undoubtedly like sending a sheep to the tiger’s den. This time, Yin Huaixi had defeated a few branches of the Northern Barbarians and reduced their strength. It was obvious that Yin Huaixi had planned it. He had long figured out the background of the branches of the grassland.

From the beginning, only the Northern Barbarians had plundered the Great Zhou.

King Yue Fei’s actions of plundering the Northern Barbarians were simply satisfying. Immediately, many scholars wrote poems and praised King Yue Fei.

However, this was only the beginning.

As the news of King Yue Fei of the Great Zhou attacking several branches of the Northern Barbarians spread throughout the grassland, some small tribes in the Northern Barbarians who lived as herdsmen began to migrate deeper into the grassland because they were afraid of being attacked.

All of this was within Yin Huaixi’s expectations. He quietly followed the migration route of the branches and further perfected the topographic map of the Northern Barbarians to understand the distribution of the tribes.

An increasing number of affiliates were attacked and looted.

It wasn’t until Zamo He realized that the main military supplies of warhorses, cows, sheep, kumis , and Sapir-man had decreased a lot at some point in time that he finally realized that the tribes that had been snatched were actually the tribes that herded livestock in the Northern Barbarians. They herded horses, sheep, and cows to survive and transport the necessary military supplies to the various tribes in the Northern Barbarians.

This calamity made things worse for the Northern Barbarian army, which already lacked supplies because of the drought. Zamo He’s army suffered a huge loss.

Zamo He broke out in a cold sweat. “This is a premeditated attack. King Yue Fei of the Great Zhou Dynasty might have grasped the topographic map of the grassland and the distribution of the Northern Barbarians.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the generals of the Northern Barbarians subconsciously retorted.

“That’s impossible. The grassland is vast. The Great Zhou soldiers have never set foot in the grassland. It’s impossible for them to figure out the terrain of the grassland and the distribution of our tribes.”

“Back then, even Emperor Gaozu of the Great Zhou Dynasty almost died in the grassland. How could a young child like Yin Huaixi do it? This must be a coincidence. ”

“It’s very likely that a traitor appeared in our army and betrayed our military intelligence to the Great Zhou army…”

The idea of a traitor had actually received the unanimous approval of all the generals. Harmon was also surprised and uncertain. He had his doubts and uneasiness about this, feeling that this matter was not simple.

Unfortunately, the grassland was the place where the tribes of the Northern Barbarians relied on to survive. For generations, they had given birth to countless children of the grassland. They relied on the complicated terrain of the grassland and the various dangers hidden in it to block the Great Zhou army outside the grassland, turning the border cities of the Great Zhou into the backyard of the Northern Barbarians for them to attack and plunder.

They would rather believe that there was a traitor.

They did not want to believe that the grassland that they had lived on for generations could no longer be their capital.

By April, more than ten tribes had already been attacked by the Great Zhou army. Wherever the Great Zhou army went, other than the old, weak, women, and children, they were slaughtered.

The Northern Barbarians finally had a taste of everyone holding a white flag.

Due to the drought, only a few areas on the grassland could still be used for grazing. Supplies were scarce to begin with, so Zamo He had no choice but to send troops to intercept and kill.

This was exactly what Yin Huaixi wanted. He had achieved his goal of dividing the main forces of the Northern Barbarians and defeating them one by one.

Yin Huaixi had used the terrain of the grassland to appear and disappear unpredictably. Not only was Zamo He helpless, but he had also lost troops. The morale of the army in the Northern Barbarians was deteriorating day by day.

However, just as the Northern Barbarians couldn’t help but wonder if King Yue Fei of the Great Zhou Dynasty had really grasped the topographic map of the grassland and the distribution map of the Di tribes, the Great Zhou army retreated.

This guess once again became a mystery in their hearts.

The soldiers had tasted the sweetness of plundering the Northern Barbarians and had wine and meat every day. They were unwilling to retreat.

Yin Huaixi said, “Although we’ve grasped the map shape of the grassland and understand the distribution of a portion of the Northern Barbarians in the grassland, the terrain of the grassland is complicated and dangerous. This is the first time we’ve ventured deep into the grassland and we don’t have any experience fighting enemies in the grassland. This time, we’ll mainly scout the way and train our troops. We’ll secretly observe and learn from the Northern Barbarians’ soldiers. We’ll further understand the situation in the grassland and avoid danger. We’ll try our best to cut off the supplies of the Northern Barbarians. Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we win a hundred battles. “
