After hearing Li Rui's question, Lu Chen did not answer directly. He glanced at Qin Yushan in the crowd, and then said: "Commander Qin, please tell me.

Hearing Lu Chen's words, everyone's eyes fell on Qin Yushan?

Li Rui and others were a little curious, Commander?

What position is this?

Since when did the palace have such a position?

Qin Yushan walked out of the crowd at this time and came to Lu Chen's table. He first saluted and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Afterwards, Qin Yushan said to everyone: "Our people intercepted the summoning order of the barbarians on the grassland. The barbarians are preparing to summon 300,000 cavalry to go south, capture Beijun, and then establish a country in Beijun and use Yancheng as their capital."

After hearing Qin Yushan's words, everyone's expressions changed instantly.

The barbarians have always been the biggest threat to Beijun. The reason why Beijun is so poor is because the barbarians go south to plunder from time to time.

Unexpectedly, this time the barbarians stopped coming to rob, and instead directly occupied Beijun, and even established a country in Beijun.

For a moment, everyone in the study was extremely panicked.

Especially Li Rui, the reason why he was able to become the county guard was because the previous county guards were killed by the barbarians, otherwise it would not have been his turn to be the county guard.

He originally thought he could live a stable life for a few days, but he didn't expect that just over a year later, the barbarians would go south again.

And it's not an ordinary robbery. If it's just a robbery of food, Li Rui is not so worried, because the barbarians will only steal food in several other cities north of Yancheng, and rarely come to cities further south like Yancheng.

After coming back to his senses, Li Rui quickly asked: "Um, Commander Qin, is your information accurate?"

The barbarians going south is a big deal, let alone the 300,000 cavalry going south to attack Beijun. This matter must be reported to the imperial court, and it will be reported to the imperial court immediately.

In the eyes of everyone, the 30,000 soldiers of Beijun were like mantises in front of the 300,000 barbarian cavalry. They could only resist the barbarians with the help of the imperial army.

In fact, every time Beijun resisted barbarian invasion, it relied on the imperial army. Beijun's 30,000 soldiers were just to deal with some small fish and shrimps.

Qin Yushan said at this time: "The intelligence we collected has been verified. Our people infiltrated into the barbarian royal court and got the news personally from a certain barbarian king."

this……

Hearing Qin Yushan's words, everyone had expressions of disbelief on their faces.

Who is this Qin commander next to the prince?

How could the prince's people sneak into the barbarian royal court?

At this time, Li Rui suddenly woke up. He had always thought that Lu Chen was a lazy prince who was idle and didn't care about anything. Now he understood that all of this was just done by King Bei to show others.

The King of Bei has long had a power that belongs to him in private, and this power has penetrated into various places in Beijun, and has even penetrated into the barbarians.

Thinking of this, Li Rui broke out in cold sweat on his forehead. Fortunately, when King Bei came to Beijun, he didn't cause any obstacles for King Bei.

Otherwise, let alone Wu Shamao, I'm afraid I don't even know whether he is alive or not.

At this time, Mu Changtian asked: "My lord, what are you going to do? Do you want to ask the court for help?"

Thirty thousand versus three hundred thousand, there is no chance of winning at all. The imperial court must send a large army, otherwise North County will not be protected.

Lu Chen said: "I plan to send someone to tell the court the news later. However, it will take at least three months for the court to assemble an army. The barbarians can complete the assembly in about two months. We still need to guard Beijun for a while. ."

Although Lu Chen was confident that he would let 30,000 soldiers defend Beijun and eat the barbarian's 300,000 cavalry, this kind of thing must be notified to the court. After all, Beijun was nominally the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty.

If a foreign enemy invades and does not notify the court, no matter whether the battle is won or defeated, the court will think that he has rebellious intentions, and he does not even notify the court of such an important matter.

However, Daxia's army was not assembled as quickly as the barbarians. It would take at least two or three months to mobilize the army.

There is a saying that before the soldiers and horses move, food and grass go first. Daxia's army is definitely not as fast as the barbarian cavalry.

What's more, this is in Beijun. The roads in Beijun are extremely bad. It will take more time for Daxia to mobilize the army.

After hearing Lu Chen's words, Li Rui's face became even paler.

If the barbarians go south, they may be able to occupy the entire North County in less than a month, and it will take such a long time for the Daxia army to gather. By the time the Daxia army comes, all their 30,000 soldiers will be dead.

I can’t even imagine what will happen to Yancheng by that time.

Lu Chen continued: "This king plans to evacuate all the people north of Yancheng to the south of Yancheng, and then concentrate all forces to hold back the barbarian army of 300,000 in Yancheng. General Mo, you have fought against the barbarian army before. , I wonder what you think of this idea?”

Hearing Lu Chen's question, Mu Changtian was stunned for a second, and he frowned slightly.

Then he took a look at the map, and then asked: "There is no problem with the strong walls and clear fields, but if all the people north of Yancheng are evacuated, the barbarian army will march straight into Yancheng. Thirty thousand soldiers want to defend Yancheng. Disaster."

Mu Changtian knew very well the strength of the barbarian cavalry. Most of the barbarian cavalry were elites. It was basically impossible for 30,000 soldiers to hold back 300,000 cavalry.

Lu Chen continued: "What if I have a weapon in my hand that can instantly break the cavalry square?"

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Li Feng and others' eyes instantly lit up.

Those of them who have followed Bei Wang from the beginning know very well that Bei King has some mysterious weapons on his body, such as the exploding stones and the black stick that can kill ninth-level warriors instantly.

Now there are rumors in the army that King Bei has received the inheritance from the Immortal.

As for whether it has the inheritance of the immortals, it doesn't matter, as long as the North King has weapons that can destroy the barbarians, or such weapons can be manufactured on a large scale.

Mu Changtian was about to ask Lu Chen what kind of weapon he was, but Lu Chen looked at the map and continued to ask: "General Mo, I plan to lead the barbarian cavalry to the Wanning River Valley, and then ambush them on the high ground of the river valley. I don't know what you are doing." I don’t think this plan is feasible.”

After all, Mu Changtian had fought against the barbarians several times, and he knew the situation of the barbarians best, so Lu Chen wanted to ask his opinion.

Professional matters should be left to professionals.

After hearing what Lu Chen said, Mu Changtian looked at the map on the table seriously, but he did not answer immediately.

After a while, Mu Changcai said: "If the prince is in Yancheng, it will not be difficult to lead the barbarian cavalry to the Wanning Valley. The terrain of the Wanning Valley is relatively flat, making it easier for the barbarian cavalry to go south and go straight to Yancheng."

"It's just that, Your Majesty... if we set up an ambush in the Wanning Valley, there will be only 30,000 people, and I'm afraid they won't be able to stop the charge of the barbarian cavalry."

There are highlands on both sides of the Wanning River Valley and a flat plain in front. Even if the barbarian cavalry is ambushed in the Wanning River Valley, others can quickly pass through the Wanning River Valley as long as they speed up.

The Wanning River Valley is not very long. If you want to resist the charge of the barbarian cavalry in front, it is unlikely that there are not a hundred thousand people.

What's more, Beijun's 30,000 soldiers have to set up ambushes on the highlands on both sides. By then, there will not even be 30,000 soldiers facing them head-on.
