Chapter 166 Crossing the Desert
Seeing that Charlie Ann agreed to his request, Zhao Jiuxiao also nodded: "Your Majesty, since that's the case, I will lead an expedition after returning to Tiansheng Kingdom. When the time comes, I also hope that His Majesty the King will launch an attack."

Charlie Ann nodded: "Naturally, this king will definitely do such a good thing!"

Then, he asked, "General Zhao, what do you want to eat? I am going to treat you with a sumptuous dinner, and let you enjoy the highest treatment in our kingdom."

Zhao Jiuxiao shook his head: "No need, I want to return to Tiansheng Kingdom and lead the army to attack, so I won't cause trouble to His Majesty the King."

Charlie Ann was a little surprised: "Oh? General Zhao, you are so ambitious that you didn't even attend the dinner?"

Zhao Jiuxiao said with a smile: "The important matter is important, and I hope His Majesty the King will not force you."

Charlie Ann shook his head: "It doesn't matter. As long as General Zhao is willing, this is a small matter. But after the matter is completed, General Zhao should not forget the silk. My wives are still waiting to wear it."

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded: "Your Majesty, please rest assured!"

After speaking, he left here with Gongsun Wuji and Carlot.

Along the way, Carlot's expression was more of a question than shock: "General Zhao, you came all the way here just for this matter?"

Zhao Jiuxiao: "Not bad, what do you think?"

Carlot: "To be honest, I don't have a good impression of Changfeng Nation, and I even want to destroy it, but I didn't expect Tiansheng to cooperate with us."

Zhao Jiuxiao: "We're meeting now, aren't you happy?"

Carlos nodded; "I'm a little happy, but I'm also worried that if you lose this battle, we will suffer crazy revenge from the Changfeng Kingdom."

Zhao Jiuxiao shook his head: "Don't worry, it won't happen. In this battle, I will definitely destroy the Changfeng Kingdom and share the victory with your West Indian Kingdom. I will never break my promise."

Carlot looked forward to it: "Well, I hope you can succeed, General Zhao."

While speaking, everyone had already arrived outside the palace.

Turning his head and looking at everything behind him, Zhao Jiuxiao felt like a dream.

Carlot also summoned the Griffin and let him and Gongsun Wuji sit on it.

The griffin roared and soared into the sky.

Everyone is just flying high in the sky again.

Unlike last time, Zhao Jiuxiao's heart was much calmer.

But the feeling of appreciating the beautiful scenery was still there, making him smile involuntarily.

Zhao Jiuxiao also thought to himself: "After Changfeng Kingdom is destroyed, it will be the turn of Xiyin Kingdom. I believe Charlie Ann will also be ready to fight with me. Then it will be the decisive battle."

"If I can win, Tiansheng Kingdom will rule the world, and I will also become the emperor of Tiansheng Kingdom, and become the eternal king."

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously, extremely excited.

Gongsun Wuji seemed to have guessed what Zhao Jiuxiao was thinking, and was also looking at him, nodding slightly.

Unknowingly, Zhao Jiuxiao returned to the masters of various factions.

He told the news about his discussion with Charlie Ann.

Everyone present was stunned.

But the heads of the factions still accepted Zhao Jiuxiao's words.

Especially the abbot of Shaolin, he clasped his hands together: "Amitabha, I can't imagine that the king of West India is so generous and willing to cooperate with our country."

Du Linyuan, the leader of the Huashan faction, even smiled and said: "Leader Zhao, I have always considered myself to be very knowledgeable, but I have never seen that General Zhao can establish an alliance so easily. From this point of view, we can defeat Changfeng Nation just around the corner."

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded: "Yes, the biggest problem right now is food and grass. As long as the problem of food and grass is solved, our army will surely win."

Li Chunyang: "General Zhao, did you mean when you led the army across the desert?"

Zhao Jiuxiao: "Yes, it takes more than a month to cross the desert, and we need a lot of food and grass."

Sima You suddenly said, "General Zhao, I have a plan."

Zhao Jiuxiao showed curiosity: "Shaoxia Sima, please tell me."

Sima You: "To be honest, I think we can divide our forces and advance without having to cross the desert all at once. In this way, we can reduce the risk of insufficient food and grass."

Zhao Jiuxiao agreed after a little thought: "Good idea, besides that, digging underground grain channels is also the key."

Sima You: "Exactly."

Gongsun Wuji cupped his hands: "Don't worry, General Zhao, leave the matter of the grain road to me. I know everything about the situation underground, and I will never let the army dig the wrong grain road."

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded: "Thank you Gongsun Shaoxia."

Luo Wenyuan suddenly said: "General Zhao, if we go to war with Changfeng Nation, how should we deal with Changfeng Nation's witchcraft?"

Zhao Jiuxiao: "It's very simple, many martial arts masters and the elf dragon scales on my body."

Luo Wenyuan relaxed: "The final general agrees."

He Zhengyang roared: "If these wizards dare to make mistakes, my battle ax will chop them up first!"

Zhao Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Okay everyone, let's go back to Tiansheng Kingdom!"

After speaking, everyone set off on their way home.

Two months later, it was noon in Tiansheng Kingdom, the capital, and the General's Mansion.

Looking at the bright sunshine, Zhao Jiuxiao sat there, enjoying the beauty of peace.

A few days ago, he had just returned, exhausted.

Fortunately, with the protection of the magic power and the help of [Longevity Jue], Zhao Jiuxiao was not greatly affected.

But Gongsun Wuji and others are different.

They all fell asleep for several days and didn't wake up until it was dark.

It also keeps people in good spirits.

Zhao Jiuxiao also mobilized 200 million troops to gather near the capital.

In this army, there are 60 tiger and leopard cavalry, 70 crossbowmen, and 60 Xuanjia soldiers.One hundred thousand artillerymen.

Whether it is firepower or combat effectiveness, the strength of this million-strong army is enough to fight against powerful enemies.

And relying on the tax revenue obtained from the vast territory, Zhao Jiuxiao found enough food and grass.

Next, Gongsun Wuji led his troops to the desert to dig a grain road leading directly to the border of Changfeng Country.

With his understanding of the geography of mountains and rivers, everyone quickly succeeded.

Not only was the grain road dug through, but Gongsun Wuji also planned the route for the army.

Zhao Jiuxiao immediately led an army of 200 million to set off to the destination.

Along the way, he divided the army into four parts, 50 each, and acted in batches.

They were led by Nan Guofeng, He Zhengyang, Luo Wenyuan, and Hong Taishan respectively, advancing in an orderly manner.

Zhao Jiuxiao sat in the rear and commanded the army to mobilize to check for omissions.

In this way, with his efforts, the 200 million army successfully solved the problem of food and grass, crossed the desert, and came to the border of Changfeng country.

Once here, Zhao Jiuxiao's army can set up camp and have a good rest.

The climate here is no longer hot, and water and food are abundant, so there is no need to worry.

Zhao Jiuxiao was also sitting in the camp, looking at the map of Changfeng Kingdom in front of him, and started discussing with everyone.

Gongsun Wuji was the first to speak: "General Zhao, we have three cities to attack, but only two are the most suitable."
