The army entered Yilumi.
The 130,000-strong army, not to mention elite, was at least mighty in terms of momentum, which put great pressure on Yilu.
Suddenly, an army of unknown origin appeared, which naturally shocked everyone in Yilu. This news was quickly sent to the capital.
Three mountains.
Varro, the general who defended the city, had an ugly face. He had been in the army for many years and had never seen so many soldiers. The darkness almost surrounded the entire city.
A look of solemnity flashed across Lieutenant General Carter's eyes, and he turned to Varro and said, "General, this large army is eyeing us, so we should ask the king for help first!"
"Our army only has 5,000 men, and we can't stop the opponent at all!"
"Ask for help?"
Varro's expression was complicated, and he turned to the deputy general and said: "We don't even know where the other party comes from or how many there are, so how can we ask for help?"
"Sending an envoy out of the city, I want to meet the leader of this army!"
"promise!"
Carter nodded in agreement, knowing that Varro was right. Given their king's impatience and suspicion, and since they were defenders, the court might not send troops if the news was unknown.
The most important thing now is to find out more about this matter.
Only by understanding the situation can they ask the court for help, and it will be easier for them to make choices.
They only have an army of five thousand, so they naturally know that they cannot stop the enemies outside the city. People have the mentality of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. Unless it is a fatal situation, or there is a reversal of the situation, there will be no one who is fearless. die.
.......
Outside the city of Sanshan.
The army shogunate.
"Sir, Sanshan has sent an envoy to ask for an audience!" Fan Zeng walked into the shogunate and said to Zhao Shu, "They are most likely here to inquire about our truth and situation!"
"Haha, can the twelve merchants investigate the situation of this Sanshan town?" Zhao Shu laughed and then asked Fan Zeng.
"Sir, this subordinate has done some research. Sanshan City is the northernmost city of Yilumu Kingdom. It has more than 5,000 defenders and 30,000 people!"
Fan Zeng told Zhao Shu the news he got one by one: "And its city is low, and its walls are all made of earth and stone!"
"Even though our army went south with few siege equipment, our army went south this time with an equipment battalion. With the equipment battalion's capabilities, we can produce siege equipment in a short time!"
Hearing this, Zhao Shu turned to Fan Zeng and said, "Let me meet this person!"
"At the same time, let the cavalry be on alert, the mountain division cut down trees, the equipment battalion make siege equipment, and part of it is used for digging mountains and quarrying rocks!"
"promise!"
Nodding in agreement, Fan Zeng turned and left.
At this moment, Zhao Shu turned to Sima of the Chinese Army on the side and said: "Pang Qing, prepare some tea, don't lose your etiquette!"
"promise!"
"The foreign minister has met the general!" the special envoy walked into the shogunate and saluted Zhao Shu, saying.
It's just that Zhao Shu couldn't understand the local dialect he spoke. At this time, Pang Qing opened his mouth to translate.
"Pang Qing, tell him why he is here?" Zhao Shu glanced at the visitor and said to Pang Qing.
"promise!"
Nodding in agreement, Pang Qing looked at the visitor and said, "This is my Daqin Master's technique. Why are you here?"
"Excuse me!"
The visitor saluted solemnly, and then said: "Young Master, lead your army into our city, I don't know..."
"This young master has brought civilization to the kings that Yi Lu did not bring!"
Zhao Shu took a sip of tea, smiled, and said: "My master led the army of the King of Qin to go south. Under the orders of the King of Qin, I brought civilization, etiquette, and food and clothing to the barbaric land!"
"After you go back, tell the guards of Sanshan and the king of Yilumu to accept the king's transformation. Only then will there be a way out!"
After Pang Qing's translation, the envoy's face changed slightly. He was not a fool and naturally understood the meaning of these words: "Don't worry, sir, your words will be brought to me by the foreign ministers!"
"good!"
Watching the special envoy leave, Zhao Shu shook his head: "They are barbarians after all, they don't even have the courtesy!"
"Notify Fan Zeng and send him the detailed information about Yilumei, and also ask the twelve merchants to send him the most detailed map of this land!"
"promise!"
Nodding in agreement, Pang Qing couldn't help but raise his head: "Sir, our army has the advantage and can completely attack Sanshan. Why do we have to go to such trouble?"
Hearing this, Zhao Shu smiled meaningfully and said, "We need the leading party!"
"Moreover, our army is alone thousands of miles away and needs to eat locally. Therefore, we need a stable rear area!"
"These three mountains are good and can be used as our rear area!"
"My subordinate understands!"
Ever since Li Xu became the captain of thousands and led the army, Pang Qing has become his military commander. Now in Zhao Shu's shogunate, the military commanders are extremely complicated, and almost all of them come from the Twelve Shang.
Because they are familiar with the local dialect.
Watching Pang Qing leave, Zhao Shu had a smile in his eyes, but his heart felt empty. Since he destroyed the Chu Kingdom, he had never encountered a decent opponent.
Originally, Zhao Shu thought that the Land of Baiyue would definitely be a deadly battle, but the result...
The painful lessons of the Qin army in history made him prepare for a long time and be very well prepared. As a result, the battle to destroy Baiyue made him feel like he thought he was a king but ended up being bronze.
The Land of Baiyue is like this, and the Land of Chaos is even worse.
Judging from various intelligence, this Indochina Peninsula is probably not even as good as a place of chaos.
The most difficult thing is just here and where Li Xin lives. The country here is more like a larger tribe than a country.
The progress of their civilization is probably worse than that of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.
"Sir, this is a brand new map. Going south from Sanshan City, we will experience the Three Kingdoms and more than a dozen small tribes!" Fan Zeng walked into the shogunate and towards Zhao Shu, said: "At the same time, the twelve merchants came According to the news, Ren Xiao has traveled three hundred miles without encountering any decent obstacles along the way."
"General Li Xin's troops are also attacking Rinan, and Rinan is the most powerful country in the area. As long as we defeat Rinan, there won't be much obstruction in that area!"
"Judging from all circumstances, General Li Xin will complete the mission as soon as possible!"
"Because the Daqinlou shipmen have landed in Ninan!"
Hearing this, Zhao Shu smiled and nodded. He naturally expected such a situation: "There must be obstacles. Every tribe and every nation has strong backbones!"
"Even if they are just a small tribe, a small nation..."
"The reason why the Land of Chaos is so easy is because we paid a higher price, and we used the three counties of Ba, Shu, and Central Guizhou to form an encirclement!"
"The one who took action locally was my Great Qin Rui Shi!"
"This time, apart from us, we are all bringing down soldiers and young men who have been recruited!"
