In December, the sky is full of wind and snow.
The ghost army commander Laisen led an army of 200,000 to the city of Sais.
On a vast expanse of white land, the ghost army formed several long queues, with no end as far as the eye could see.
At the city gate, Yurilo and several young generals were waiting.
Next to him, Iles put his hands in his sleeves, leaned forward and muttered, "In this damn weather, I really should be holding a woman under the covers."
"Then why would Lord Iles come out to greet you?" Yurilo said.
Iles rolled his eyes. Leisen was a noble and senior general and a figure in the Congress. How could he dare to offend him.
The team marched and gradually approached, and before long, Laisen arrived at the city gate.
He is riding a war horse, holding the reins in his left hand and a whip in his right hand. He is not wearing armor, but is wearing a rich winter coat and his blond hair is scattered.
Iles and others quickly put their hands on their chests, bent down and saluted: "General Leysen."
The war horse marched forward without even looking at a few people.
Everyone hurriedly stepped aside, still bending over, not to mention how respectful their attitude was.
The army entered the city one after another.
In the distant sky, the eagle chirped and spread its wings.
Half an hour later, the meeting hall of Seth City.
When Laisen arrived here, he was naturally in the leading position, and there were generals of all levels of the ghost army standing on both sides below.
After looking around for a week, Laisen said straight to the point: "I just learned about the military situation, Yuriluo, tell me how you lost the strongholds around Seth and allowed the Qin army to burn and kill our people unscrupulously."
"This" Yuriluo complained in his heart, and said carefully on his face: "Reporting to the general, the Qin army is not at the same level as the previous Central Plains army. Their cavalry is very capable, equipped with powerful crossbows, and is extremely fast."
"Is this your reason?" Laisen interrupted him: "But as far as I know, the Qin cavalry only dispatches a few hundred cavalry every time. With just a few people, they can penetrate you." Defense line!”
"General, it's not just these cavalry." Yuriluo explained: "The Qin army's tactics are very flexible. When the battlefield cannot be deployed, they often use infantry to cooperate sideways, so that their cavalry can make circuitous insertions. "
"Okay!" Laisen interrupted him again: "Didn't you respond to these tactics? After all, it's all your own incompetence!"
"Yes!" Yurilo didn't dare to argue back and lowered his head.
"Yurilo, do you know that if it weren't for His Majesty the King's mercy, you would have been escorted back to Congress for trial!" Laisen said coldly.
Hearing this, Yurilo was startled: "My subordinate is incompetent, please punish me, general."
Lathan snorted coldly: "Step aside."
"Thank you, General!" Yurilo secretly breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved a lot. As soon as Laisen came, he knew that he would definitely be held accountable. Fortunately, he was not punished badly.
Lessen looked at Iles again, with the same disgust on his face: "And you, Iles, were entrusted by His Majesty the King to come to negotiate with the Qin army, but what did you end up talking about!"
Iles's face changed and he quickly explained: "General Laisen, it's not that I didn't question it, but the Qin army is too arrogant and their attitude is bad. They just ignore us. I have tried my best."
As he said this, he did not forget to flatter him: "And this time General, when you come, the State of Qin will definitely beg us to talk. When the time comes, we will have the absolute initiative and we can claim whatever compensation we want."
He had a respectful attitude and bowed down with a shy face. Laisen smiled when he heard this: "When the time comes, we will capture more girls from the Central Plains."
"Yes." Iles immediately agreed: "Those women from the Central Plains have white and tender skin, and they can be sold at a good price when they are brought home."
Speaking of the girl from the Central Plains, these demons were very excited. The deputy general seemed to be impatient and said: "General, now that our country's 200,000 warriors have arrived, it's time to teach the Qin army a lesson!"
"What do you think?" Leson glanced at him.
The lieutenant general said: "It's just a Northeastern Pass. It can be easily broken by 200,000 warriors. When the time comes, we will first kill all of Anyang and rob all of the women, and then let Iles go to negotiate with Qin and ask them to cede territory and pay compensation." , if Qin does not agree, we will continue to attack the Central Plains."
"Yeah" Laisen rubbed his chin and thought about it for a moment. This is the idea of the entire ghost army and also the idea of the Congress.
However, Yurilo couldn't help but stood up and said respectfully: "General Laisen, the snow is falling now, and my subordinates think it is not appropriate to attack the city at this time."
"What?" Laisen glanced at him and said, "The snow is not thick and it does not affect the march."
Yurilo said: "It will not affect the march, but after all, the weather is very cold, and the army is not suitable for staying in the wild for a long time."
The implication of his words is that the Northeast Pass may not be easy to fight. This is based on Yuriluo's confrontation with the Qin army.
But the other generals have just arrived here. The ghost tribe has plundered a lot before, and subconsciously they don't believe in the combat power of the Central Plains.
Laisen also had this mentality, and he had participated in the war to invade the Central Plains many years ago. In his opinion, he was like a flock of wolves.
However, he was arrogant, but he was not blindly brainless. Instead, he glanced at the crowd and said, "What do you think?"
The lieutenant general sneered: "Let me see, Yuriluo is probably scared of being beaten by the Qin army!"
"Hahahaha!" The ghost generals burst into laughter, and someone said: "According to Yuriluo, we can't break through the Northeast Pass at all. How is this possible! When did we invade the Central Plains before, were we blocked from the pass?"
Yuriluo's face turned red. He could understand the psychology of these people. Just like himself, he looked down on the Qin army.
So he said seriously: "General Laisen, please listen to me. The Qin army is definitely not that easy to deal with."
"I know." Laisen said: "This general will look at the Qin army squarely, but the warriors are already here and need to eat meat! We can't let Qin do this anymore! So no matter what, the Northeast Pass must be call taxi!"
After saying that, he stood up and looked around: "Obey the order!"
The ghosts shook their bodies.
Laisen said in a loud voice: "Let the warriors eat and drink enough and rest for three days. After three days, send 50,000 troops to attack the Northeast Pass!"
"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison.
Northeast Pass.
The howling north wind is like a ghost whistling, rolling up a piece of snow.
In the big tent, a brazier burned with crackling sounds, and an old iron kettle hung above it.
Wei Qing held a volume of military literature in his hand and was reading it carefully behind the case.
"Report~~~~"
Following the cry, the soldiers hurried in, knelt down on one knee, clasped their fists and said, "General, the ghost army has arrived in Seth City."
"Approximately how many people there are."
"Looking at its size, it is at least no less than hundreds of thousands."
"knew."
Wei Qing was not too surprised. At this moment, the iron kettle was boiling water, and smoke was coming out.
He quickly urged the soldiers: "Hurry, the water is boiling." (End of Chapter)
