Snow Holy Village.
This is the largest village in Shilibaxiang.
The large open space in front was already filled with tents.
Various temporary work hours have been set up.
In a large tent in the middle, there were about ten people talking.
There seemed to be three people sitting at the top, but in fact there was only one person, and that was Beili Tu.
Beili Tu did not have the largest number of troops, but his status was the highest. After all, he was now the King of Beili.
The leader of the Mongolian army was Wulihan, who was just a member of Wanhu.
Yang Dingxing of the Yang family in Bozhou was a favored son of Chieftain Yang, but he was not the only one. In terms of status, he was far inferior to King Beili.
"Are you ready?" Beilitu asked.
He gave orders without hesitation. Among the three leaders, he had the highest authority and the strongest ability.
His position as the Great Elder of the Beili Clan back then was not obtained out of thin air, but through fighting with swords and spears. He is one of the most famous generals in the world today.
"We are ready, we can set off." Yang Dingxing said.
Beilitu turned his attention to Wulihan again.
Wulihan also nodded and said: "We have no objections and can take action."
On the second day, after resting for a while, the coalition forces broke out of camp and set off. They were still some way away from Sixiang City.
In fact, Yang Dingxing still wanted to delay a little, but there was no way. The other two armies decided to set off. They, the Yang Family Army in Bozhou, could not stay alone to rest.
The five fingers must be clenched into a fist to be powerful when punched. If you let go, the loose fingers will only be broken by everyone. In this case, he can only choose to set off.
Yang Dingxing was not afraid of fighting. Since he had chosen to lead the Yang family's army northward, he was already mentally prepared.
However, he found that he had underestimated the severe cold in the north.
He knew the temperament of his southern soldiers very well. Southerners were afraid of the cold. On such a cold day, they should hide in the house to keep warm. If they were fine, they would go out to fight in the wind and snow. Isn't this a fool?
From a spiritual point of view, it is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is the physique of southerners.
Banshu is located in the southwest. In winter, the climate is warm, equivalent to spring in the north. Compared with the severe cold in the north, it is really mild.
Therefore, when southerners grow up in such a warm environment, their bodies are naturally not so cold-tolerant.
Moreover, after traveling, you still need to carry heavy luggage.
If the Yang family had given them enough money and Beilitu had temporarily given them some money and promised rewards if they won the battle, the Yang family army would really not be willing to set off.
But even so, the marching speed of the coalition forces was still greatly affected.
While crossing a river, Yang Dingxing couldn't help but feel dissatisfied as he watched the soldiers knocking on the ice of the river and finally knocking out tiny cracks like spider webs.
"The area around Sixiang City has not reached the true north, so why is it so cold? It stands to reason that on this day in previous years, the ice in the river would have melted. This year, the river is really frozen solid."
"How can previous years be compared with this year..."
Wulihan smiled slightly and said: "General Yang, you are from the south. I don't know that in the north, there will be abnormal weather every few years. We grassland people call this year the ice year. This year is rare. It’s the Ice Year.”
"Maybe it's a good thing. Let's just walk across the ice. This way we don't have to take a detour and save a lot of time."
Yang Dingxing thought for a while and said.
"I'm afraid it's not a success... Our men and horses can pass through, but our siege artillery and siege vehicles are extremely heavy. This kind of ice cannot bear it."
North from the map road.
Yang Dingxing's face turned red.
He was careless for a moment and forgot about the heavy artillery.
"I'm anxious too. Look, why are we marching so slowly?"
"If we can get to Sixiang City quickly, we can destroy them and occupy Sixiang City."
"How many soldiers does Sixiang City have? It can fight more than ten thousand people at most. That guy Xiang Renyu can indeed fight, but there is only one strong general like him. It is not difficult for us to surround and kill him."
Yang Dingxing laughed dryly and spoke his mind.
"It's better to play it safe. What we're after is a one-hit kill, so advancing slowly is the safest strategy."
Beili Tu didn't feel the need to risk his march at this point.
He has already calculated that Sixiang City is at its most empty at this time. Except for the Yan family army who arrived in advance, the nearest army would have to take seven days to arrive.
But within seven days, if everything goes well, they will have already entered Sixiang City.
After getting the supplies in Sixiang City, and taking a short rest, we can directly besiege the capital.
By then, Da Qi might just die.
Such cases are not unheard of. In history, more than one empire perished after the imperial capital was raided and captured.
The future example is theirs this time.
While he was thinking about it, suddenly, a group of soldiers appeared in front.
They were sent out as scouts.
If the army wants to move forward smoothly, it is naturally extremely important to find out the way forward.
Scouts usually use cavalry, which facilitates sudden movement and transfer.
The scouts in front came quickly.
The leader was a short man wearing simple leather armor. He was the scout captain Beili Tu relied on very much.
Scout captain Mon Ensi got off his horse and quickly came to Bei Litu.
"Commander, the end is coming."
Moens is extremely ordinary-looking. If you throw him into a crowd, you won't be able to recognize him at all, and he will be easily ignored and forgotten.
It is naturally impossible for such a person to become the focus of everyone and shine brightly.
However, he is the best candidate to serve as a scout or spy.
Beili Tu said calmly: "What's the situation ahead? Is there any big movement in Sixiang City?"
"When I got back to the commander-in-chief, basically all the soldiers in Sixiang City were there, and there wasn't much movement. Only General Yan Junning was summoning the soldiers, and the strong labor force in the city was preparing various defensive equipment on the city wall. "Moen thought.
"Basically everyone is here? Does that mean there are still some who are not here?" Beili Tu raised his eyebrows.
"A small group of cavalry quietly left the city, but they were not many."
Moen thought.
"There are not many people, haha, it's not like they were escorting them, the county guard and a few other adults, and they ran away for their lives, haha..."
A contemptuous laugh broke out from Ullihan's mouth.
"That's not certain. Aren't all civil servants in Daqi like this? They are more greedy for money than anyone else, and they can run for their lives faster than anyone else."
Yang Dingxing also laughed.
Immediately, several lieutenants and others next to him started laughing.
"Okay, we can't underestimate the enemy. The lion fights the rabbit with all our strength. We don't want to make a big mistake."
