Chapter 187 The nightmare is coming true
Leng Qingyi, who was on the Beidong grassland, had no idea that the nightmare he had some time ago was about to come true. He was discussing the next tactics with Ji Wuqi and several other generals.
After discussing the tactics, Ji Wuqi asked the others to leave first, and stayed alone, looking at their high-spirited new king with some concern.
"Your Majesty, I understand the principle that one's strength at the beginning is strong, the second is weak, and the third is exhausted. Now our soldiers are at their peak morale, and we should make another strong charge forward."
"But whether Dongxia's treasury can support us going deeper into the grasslands is a very important question."
"Although we robbed a lot of Beidong's food and supplies, we also captured nearly 100,000 Beidong soldiers. We still need to feed them, which is not a small number."
"Besides, we don't have many troops to mobilize right now, and we don't know much about how many soldiers and cards Beidong still has."
"Besides Beidong, there are many other small tribes on the grassland. If they come to our aid, they will become a formidable enemy for us."
Leng Qingyi knew what Ji Wuqi was worried about.
That's why she wanted to fight quickly and decisively, and not take advantage of his illness to make him sick. By the time they reacted and recovered, it would be difficult to fight.
Now is the time of civil unrest in Beidong. Even if the Khan of Beidong still has a lot of troops under his command, it will be difficult to mobilize them in a short time.
If he doesn't take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take the head of that old villain, he will be unworthy of his current status as emperor.
"General Ji, I understand your concerns, but don't you think now is an excellent opportunity?"
"As for food supplies, don't worry. Even if something unexpected happens at the Ministry of Revenue, I still have a backup plan."
When Ji Wuqi learned that he didn't have to worry about food and supplies, the biggest stone in his heart fell from his heart.
What happens next will require careful planning by these generals.
"Your Majesty, are we going to conquer the other tribes on the grassland in one fell swoop?"
"No, I have to give others some opportunities. If I do everything, how will other talented people come forward?"
"I only want the head of the Northern Dong Khan. Once we capture Northern Dong, I will return to the capital. General Ji will be in charge of the other tribes here."
The two looked at each other and smiled. Seeing that the emperor was so calm and composed when talking, Ji Wuqi felt a little relieved.
Over the years, Beidong and other tribes on the grassland have harassed the people of Dongxia a lot, and he hates those barbarians deeply.
He had to defeat one wave after another, and the treasury was not full. He wanted to take down all the forces on the grassland in one fell swoop, but he had no food support.
Now we can finally fight a prosperous battle.
After the soldiers had rested, Leng Qingyi led hundreds of thousands of energetic soldiers deep into the grassland.
There were many small tribes along the way. The men who surrendered voluntarily were sent to build the city wall, and the elderly, weak, women and children were sent to cook for those who built the city wall.
Those who refuse to obey will be killed.
During this period, a few fish were let escape, which was intentional by Leng Qingyi.
Otherwise, how would that old bastard Beidong know that she was here to take her life?
Naturally, moving with a large army would not be faster than moving on her own.
It would take at least six or seven days for the army to reach the royal court.
The army led by the Emperor of Dongxia was getting closer and closer to the royal court, and along the way they either persuaded many tribes to surrender or killed them.
There is no impenetrable wall in the world, let alone the grassland.
Within a few days, most people in Beidong knew that Beidong had been defeated and that the Emperor of Dongxia was leading an army of over 100,000 to destroy the royal court.
Everyone also knew that the nearly 200,000 troops sent by the Khan of Beidong were all wiped out by the army of Dongxia.
For a time, the people of Beidong were in a panic. They packed up their things, rolled up their tents and fled deeper into the grassland.
Beidong Khan naturally knew what the people knew.
He summoned some trusted ministers and generals to discuss the matter.
With the previous brutal battle in mind, even in a country like Beidong where every person had a lot of warriors, the generals did not want to lead their troops into battle.
They are warriors when evenly matched.
But we all know that the Emperor of Dongxia is evil.
It would only take a few days to wipe out their nearly 200,000-strong army, so they really didn't dare to try to confront the Emperor of Dongxia.
Who wants to die when they can live a good life?
They also heard that when the Dongxia people encountered scattered civilians on the road, they would first persuade them to surrender, and only those who refused to surrender would be killed.
Unlike the people of Beidong, who burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of evil.
Especially the people of the Hulun tribe, the three best warriors in the tribe all died.
Their tribe also lost many young warriors and was unable to fight again.
"Khan, it's not that we're afraid of those weaklings from Dongxia, it's simply that we have no one available in our tribe."
"All three Hulun generals died on the battlefield, and there are only a few young warriors left in our tribe. There is no one who can go to fight."
Tuoba Kui's face was gloomy, how could he not know.
But should he just run away like this?
He was the Khan, but he also followed the example of those ignorant people and packed up his belongings to flee deep into the grassland.
It's so shameful. If he did this, how many people would still obey him as the Khan?
Tuoba Kui looked at several tribal leaders and generals in succession, but they all avoided his sight.
Finally, his hopes fell on the queen's brother, Helian Shuhu.
Helian Shuhu sneered and was very rude when he was confronted.
"Khan is so capable, why not just do it yourself?"
"The Emperor of Dongxia had no children, yet he dared to lead the army himself. You have a lot of sons and you're not afraid of losing your lineage, so why do you go on your own?"
The hope in Tuoba Kui's eyes instantly turned into resentment.
He didn't kill Saiji on purpose. It was just that he stayed up late at night and ran to his bedroom to shave his hair and beard.
He mistook him for an assassin and killed him accidentally.
Now his hair has not grown out yet and he still needs to wear a hat when he meets people.
Besides, even if he killed her on purpose, what would it matter?
The Han Chinese have a good saying: Filial piety is more important than heaven.
I am Saiji's father. I gave his life to him, so I can kill him if I want.
The queen herself was in poor health and couldn't have more children after giving birth to one, so who could she blame?
There is also Helian Shuhu, who always has a noble expression on his face all day long.
If they were not also greedy for the benefits brought by being the Khan, why would they marry the queen to him?
Looking at those cowards who were avoiding his sight, he felt furious, but he had no idea how to vent his anger.
If he kills a few more people at this time, there will be no one left to use.
In the end, the conversation came to nothing.
Not long after they left, Tuoba Kui received news that many people had returned home and packed up their belongings and fled deep into the grassland.
He was so angry that he smashed a lot of things.
As he was smashing the things, a light bulb went off in his head and he thought of someone.
"Bring Huyan Heji here."
A moment later, Huyan Heji was brought over, covered in wounds.
Tuoba Kui walked forward with a smile on his face, helped Huyan Heji sit down personally, and applied medicine and bandaged his wounds with his own hands.
