The Invincible Sixth Prince

Two days later, Qin Qihu and Shen Kuan rushed to the Yanhuishan camp with tightly wrapped explosives.

Qin Qihu has been staying at Dingbei's house to accompany his wife and children for some time. After being idle for so long, it's time for him to stretch his muscles.

On the second day after they arrived, the army set out from the Yanhui Mountain camp. They had to pass through the Beimoduo territory and then enter the camp they had established in the northwest section of Wulian Mountain.

Although this was a bit of a detour, as long as they entered the territory of Beimoduo, they would have a place to stay to avoid the wind and snow, and they would not have to camp and march all the way.

All in all, this is definitely much faster.

More than ten days later, they finally arrived at the camp in the northwest section of the Wulian Mountains.

Looking at the camp not far away, Yun Zheng couldn't help but worry secretly.

Damn, this battle is not going to be easy!

Even though they had bypassed the territory of Beimoduo and had dozens of military doctors accompanying them, they still lost more than 700 people in ten days.

Those people are now recuperating in Beimodo.

Some people developed frostbite on their hands and feet, some had frozen ears, and some caught colds.

Especially yesterday.

More than 300 people were killed yesterday alone, and Yun Zheng was forced to leave behind a military doctor to provide them with follow-up treatment.

If we were to fight the northern barbarians in the ice and snow for a month, the non-combat casualties alone would probably be over ten thousand.

"I, the king's weapon, pay my respects to His Highness and Madam Miaoyin!"

Upon learning that Yun Zheng and his companions had arrived, Wang Qi brought people to greet them outside the camp in advance.

Outside the camp was a thick snow wall nearly ten feet high.

This was also the method used by Yun Zheng and his men to set up their camp when they first arrived in Shuofang.

Although it cannot completely block the wind and snow, the camp is still slightly warmer with such a snow wall.

"No gift!"

Yun Zheng waved his hand gently, "Let's go to the camp first, everyone is freezing."

"Yes Yes!"

Wang Qi reacted and quickly led the way.

Soon, they followed Wang Qi into the camp.

As soon as he entered the camp, Yun Zheng saw tents in large numbers.

There are also snow houses between the tents.

"What's up with these igloos?"

Yun Zheng asked Wang Qi with a smile, "Did Yu Shizhong tell you to do this, or did you come up with this idea yourself?"

"Your Highness, after we set up the camp, there wasn't much to do except collect firewood and fodder, so I had some people build some snow houses, thinking that they could be used to store firewood and fodder, and also as tents..."

Wang Qi answered.

"Not bad!"

Yun Zheng smiled with satisfaction and asked again: "Are the firewood enough?"

Now, Yun Zheng is most worried about non-combat casualties.

All he wanted now was to have endless firewood.

"If we use it seriously, no matter how much we have, it won't be enough." Wang Qi replied, "I have people fetch firewood every day, but the consumption of firewood is quite high..."

Yun Zheng was worried that there was not enough firewood, and Wang Qi was worried too!

Fortunately, they are close to the Wulian Mountains, so they can ask people to go to the mountains to get firewood.

Otherwise, they would have run out of firewood long ago.

"Before the war starts, try to get as much firewood as possible!"

Yun Zheng felt the cold wind blowing across his face, "No one knows how long this battle will last, so we must ensure that there is enough firewood!"

"Yes!"

Wang Qi obeyed the order.

Led by Wang Qi, they came to the general's tent.

Wang Qi had already ordered people to light a fire in the general's tent, so it was warm inside.

When Yun Zheng took off his armor with Miaoyin's help, Wang Qi said, "Madam Jiayao ordered several large tribes of Beihuan to move between our camp and Beihuan's camp, so that we can provide timely support."

Yun Zheng smiled and praised: "She has considered everything very carefully!"

With these large tribes among them, they can support each other and no longer need to march slowly with tents and baggage.

When it comes to the safety of Beihuan, Jiayao is more careful.

Wang Qi smiled and continued, "In addition, Madam Jiayao has sent a hundred people here, saying that they will report to Madam Jiayao when Your Highness arrives here. Would Your Highness like to meet them?"

"no need."

Yun Zheng shook his head and said, "Just ask them to go back to Jiayao and report the news!"

"Yes!"

After Miaoyin helped Yun Zheng take off his armor, Yun Zheng helped Miaoyin take off his armor in return.

Without the armor, Yun Zheng suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

"Stop standing there, sit down!"

Yun Zheng smiled and asked Yu Shizhong, Qin Qihu and others to sit down, and then asked Wang Qi: "Is there any new news from Beihuan?"

"No."

Wang Qi shook his head and said, "I have also sent people to the areas close to the northern barbarians to gather information. Currently, we have not found any barbarian troops here..."

"No movement yet?"

When Yu Shizhong heard this, he immediately frowned, "Your Highness, why do I feel something is wrong?"

There was no movement from their side, and no news came from Beihuan either.

Could it be that the northern barbarians are bluffing?

Or, do the barbarians really want to kill their way through Mondo's territory from the Sauron Valley and then directly attack the Northwest Protectorate?

If it's the latter, then all their efforts would have been in vain.

Yu Shizhong was confused, and Yun Zheng was also confused.

"Something is definitely not right!"

Yun Zheng nodded and said, "At this time, the northern barbarians have not made much movement. This is indeed a bit unreasonable..."

Not to mention an army of 100,000, even the actions of an army of 20,000 or 30,000 would basically not escape their detection.

Could it be that Jiayao and I had made a wrong judgment?

Won’t the northern barbarians take advantage of their New Year to launch an attack?

"Is it possible that those barbarians could split into numerous small groups and meet up in places we least expect, just like you did when you broke out of the siege at the edge of the hill?"

At this time, Miaoyin suddenly frowned and asked.

Qin Qihu was surprised, "Those barbarians shouldn't be so smart, right?"

"Don't forget, there is also Lou Yi."

Miaoyin reminded Qin Qihu, "Lou Yi is now the husband of the Barbarian Princess. If he wins the trust of the Barbarian King, it's hard to say..."

"right!"

Qin Qihu slapped his thigh, "I almost forgot, Lou Yi's grandson likes to learn your fighting methods the most! Maybe he has learned this trick too."

After listening to Qin Qihu's words, Yun Zheng and Yu Shizhong looked at each other at the same time.

Don’t tell me, it’s really possible!

It’s true that Lou Yi is not very good at fighting, but this grandson is good at studying!

The method that Yun Zheng used to build a city on the Sulu River to defend against the enemy was later learned by his grandson Lou Yi.

It’s just that this grandson didn’t learn the essence of it, and ended up with a result that he failed to draw a tiger but ended up drawing a dog instead.

But for someone who is good at learning, it is not difficult to learn how to divide and hide troops!

Yun Zheng pondered for a moment, and immediately ordered Wang Qi: "Immediately send someone to tell the people sent by Jia Yao that those barbarians may divide into small groups and gather in unexpected places, and suddenly launch an attack! Ask her to strengthen reconnaissance..."

He now had to suspect that the northern barbarians' previous gathering was just to disrupt their sight.

Maybe it’s really what Miaoyin thinks!

"Yes!"

Wang Qi hurried out to do what Yun Zheng had asked him to do.

"You guys continue discussing, I'm going to write a letter to Jiayao!"

Yun Zheng gave them an order and immediately asked someone to bring paper and pen.

Although Jiayao's men were asked to take the message back, they still had to use the white falcon to convey the message to her.

After all, the white falcon is much faster than those people.

The sooner Jiayao receives the news, the sooner she can react.

While Yun Zheng was writing to Jia Yao, Yu Shizhong and the others continued the discussion.

If Miaoyin's prediction came true, they would have to determine in advance where the northern barbarians would appear...
