The Invincible Sixth Prince

Chapter 409 Shooting yourself in the foot

As expected, Ga Yao asked people to retreat fifty miles.

This is where their main camp is located.

The 80,000 troops that had besieged Gubian frontally before were no longer there.

Counting the thousands of people she brought back, there are only 30,000 troops here.

However, these are Beihuan's elite forces.

Those people who were temporarily recruited have now been sent back to various tribes.

Even part of the original standing army was demobilized.

They can't afford to feed so many people now!

With so many people occupied all the time, Beihuan could only be eaten to death.

Now, he personally commands an army of 10,000, Heasu commands an army of 10,000, and Huluo commands another 10,000 troops.

On their two wings, there are also King Xian of the Left and King Xian of the Right.

King Zuo Xian's army also suffered heavy losses last time, and its current standing army has dropped to about 10,000.

Although King Youxian's troops did not suffer much losses in the previous battle, King Youxian took the initiative to reduce the standing force to 10,000.

She knew in her heart that King Youxian was hiding his power and biding his time.

If she were King Youxian, she would definitely do the same thing!

At this time, King Zuo Xian should not dare to act rashly for the time being.

But King Youxian may have already had thoughts on competing for the position of the Great Chanyu.

King Youxian had previously taken advantage of Yunzheng's group's raid on the Muma Grassland to gather several large tribes that originally belonged to his father.

Now, King Youxian's strength already requires them to be wary.

According to her estimation, if King Youxian devoted all his money, he should be able to summon an army of 100,000!

There should be about 40,000 elites among them.

This is a big threat!

King Youxian must be suppressed!

If necessary, King Youxian can be trapped and killed!

Otherwise, once Beihuan falls into civil strife, Yunzheng will definitely take the opportunity to attack.

By then, Beihuan will really be in trouble both internally and externally.

Do not!

Now Beihuan is already suffering from internal and external troubles!

"Princess, General He'asu and General Huluo want to see you."

Just when Jia Yao was frowning, soldiers outside the tent came to report.

Jiayao rubbed his head and nodded slightly.

The soldiers understood and immediately brought the two people in.

"Princess, what do you mean?"

As soon as Huluo came in, he asked Gayao with a bad expression.

"What do you think this princess means?"

Jia Yao raised his eyes slightly and looked at Huluo coldly.

"I think the princess is afraid of Yun Zheng!"

Huluo said angrily: "As soon as Yun Zheng showed up, you retreated fifty miles. Why, you want to give away fifty miles of land to Yun Zheng as a dowry?"

The news that Jia Yao wanted to marry Yunzheng had already spread among the Beihuan army.

There was nothing she could do about it, she said it in front of everyone, even if she didn't want to spread it.

A cold light flashed quietly in Jia Yao's eyes, and then he said calmly: "In this case, you go to Zuo Xian King and ask Zuo Xian King to lend you 30,000 soldiers and horses. You can fight Yun Zheng in any way. This princess and He Asu is at your disposal!"

In the current army, only Huluo dared to talk to her like this.

Without him, just because Huluo is Arutai's younger brother.

Now, they and King Ming's tribe suffered heavy losses.

The breakout battle at Gubian some time ago caused heavy losses to Arutai's troops.

Huluo directed all his grievances at her, believing that it was her unclear decision-making that led to the heavy losses of Arutai's troops.

Now Huluo pays less and less attention to her as a princess.

If she didn't want to cause civil strife in Beihuan, she would have taught Huluo a lesson.

"you……"

Jia Yao's words instantly choked Huluo and left him speechless.

Ask Arutai to borrow 30,000 troops and horses?

It’s strange that Arutai would give it to him!

Arutai just lost more than 20,000 people, but now they are working hard, including those who can mount war horses and charge into battle. It is estimated that they will not be able to assemble an army of 80,000!

If you lend him another 30,000 troops and horses, isn't Arutai afraid that he will seize power?

"If you have any objections to this princess, you can take your 10,000 troops and leave! I will never stop you!"

Jia Yao looked at Hu Luo with cold eyes: "However, since you are not participating in the war, the food and grass for ten thousand horses must be left behind!"

Hearing Jiayao mention food and grass, Huluo suddenly stopped talking.

Last year's locust plague caused extremely heavy losses to his tribe.

He simply doesn't have that much food to feed this standing army of 10,000 people!

He brought these men and horses to the battle just to ask Wang Ting to provide food and grass to support the army of 10,000 people.

"Princess, it's not an option for us to withdraw like this, right?"

He Asu frowned, "We have suffered so many defeats this winter, and now our morale is low. We have to rely on one breath to hold on! If we continue to withdraw like this, we will lose all morale..."

If possible, he would be willing to retreat even 500 miles, not to mention fifty miles.

It would definitely be best if we didn’t fight!

But now it’s not a matter of whether they want to fight or not!

It's Yunzheng who wants to fight!

If you keep retreating like this, your morale will be lost. If Yunzheng comes over, what should you do?

"What if we don't withdraw?"

Jia Yao sighed feebly, "What's the point of confronting the Beifu Army with thousands of people in front? Withdraw early and retreat late..."

To put it bluntly, before we put thousands of people in front of us to confront the Beifu Army, it was just a show.

Once the Beifu army comes over, those thousands of people will retreat and join the army behind them.

If we didn’t withdraw before, it was because it was the cold winter.

But now, spring is just around the corner!

The thousands of people withdrew, relying on the protection of the people in the camp, even if they dispersed to dig some wild vegetables, they would still be able to eat.

Continuing the confrontation has no meaning other than warning.

Retreating is for more space for activities.

If she dares to withdraw, it depends on whether Yun Zheng dares to lead his army forward!

The further forward Yun Zheng is, the greater their chance of defeating Yun Zheng.

Listening to Jia Yao's explanation, He Asu couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Let people withdraw to dig wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger?

Has Beihuan fallen to this level?

They originally wanted to cripple the Beifu army in the winter, leaving Daqian unable to launch a spring offensive.

As a result, the beatings ended up crippling themselves.

"I don't think so!"

Hu Luo frowned and said: "Yunzheng is not without worries now. Maybe the army of the Daqian court has begun to attack Beilu Pass! Everything he did was just a bluff! Yunzheng may not dare to attack!"

Just as Jia Yao was about to speak, the soldiers outside the tent hurriedly walked in and respectfully handed a small bamboo tube to Jia Yao.

Gayao took the bamboo tube, quickly opened it, and took out the note inside.

Looking at the content on the note, Ga Yao's expression suddenly changed.

After a long time, Ga Yao handed the note to He Asu and Hu Luo with a bitter look on his face.

"See for yourselves!"

Jia Yao sighed heavily, and the look of worry on his face became even stronger.

There is still a hint of regret.

She underestimated the courage of the Emperor Daqian!

Suddenly, Gayao felt like he shot himself in the foot.

The content on the note was simple.

Yunzheng was named the general of the auxiliary country and the governor of Shuobei, taking charge of all affairs in Shuobei!

The Daqian court seemed to have given Yunzheng a lot of supplies, but the specific amount has yet to be ascertained.

Looking at the content on the note, their expressions suddenly changed...
