"Damn it, Lin Yi actually tried this on me!"

On Great Jade Mountain, Tuoba Wanli was also extremely annoyed and felt depressed.

Once or twice would be one thing, but the other side came more than ten times, which was starting to overwhelm him. Every time the war drums sounded, he had to stay on high alert, which made his anger soar to the heavens.

If Lin Yi were in front of him, he would tear that bastard to pieces to atone for his hatred.

Ashina Dubi, standing to the side, frowned and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, this is a tactic to wear us down. They are using this back-and-forth to keep us from having any peace!"

But if we let our guard down, that will be their real opportunity to attack. This is a very difficult move to deal with!

You know perfectly well that the other side is using a strategy of exhaustion, but the problem is that if you ignore them, they won't be so polite and might actually break in.

However, if you pay attention to the other person, you'll end up with a lot of headaches.

"Father, why don't we strike under cover of darkness and catch Lin Yi off guard!" Tuoba Qingshan couldn't hold back any longer and said angrily.

This bastard has been beating his war drums for ages, it's driving him crazy. If this keeps going, he's afraid he really won't be able to take it anymore.

Tuoba Wanli took a deep breath. He was indeed somewhat tempted, but he hesitated because he simply couldn't afford to gamble.

If this proactive attack fails, the consequences will be unimaginable, and the entire Northern Barbarians could even be wiped out, something he cannot accept.

These days he has been gathering troops, hoping to gain more support so that he can eliminate Lin Yi in one fell swoop.

Making a move now carries significant risks, which made him hesitate.

He looked at his strategist and said in a deep voice, "Strategist, what do you think? If we take the initiative to attack, what are our chances of winning?"

"Less than 30%!"

"What?"

Upon hearing his strategist's words, Tuoba Wanli was immediately displeased. "This is less than 30%?"

Ashina Dubi sighed and said in a deep voice, " The Heavenly Eagle Guard have already scouted the area and found that Lin Yi not only has heavy cavalry but also heavy infantry. If we head-on into them now, it will be like an egg hitting a rock."

With the addition of Lin Yi's elite Vanguard Dare-to-Die Warriors, we're afraid we won't gain any advantage; on the contrary, we'll suffer heavy losses!

Heavy cavalry and heavy infantry?

Upon hearing the strategist's words, everyone's expressions immediately turned grim. This thing was quite difficult to deal with, after all, it was fully armored.

Even if our warhorses are top-notch, they can't withstand the enemy's iron horses; a direct collision would almost certainly mean certain death.

"Just send your men to keep an eye on things. Call me if they make any moves!" Tuoba Wanli snorted coldly and stormed off.

Since we can't do anything to them, let's deal with this tomorrow. Once my army is assembled, I'll dismantle this iron lump for you.

The Tuoba Qingsong brothers exchanged a glance; that was the only thing they could do—send someone to keep an eye on things.

They gave the order easily, but those watching the Xiliang Army from the front felt their scalps tingle; it was only night, and there was still more than half the night ahead.

Who the hell can handle this?!

Xiliang Camp!

When Lin Yi woke up, it was already dawn, and Jia Xu and the others were already waiting outside the tent.

"My lord, the time is ripe, and it's time to completely crush the Northern Barbarians!" Jia Xu excitedly, his eyes flashing with cold light.

After enduring most of the night's torment, even if the Northern Barbarians still maintained some vigilance, it was no longer enough to withstand their attack.

Behind him, Zhang Liao, Gongsun Zan, and others also had their eyes shining. After this battle, the Northern Barbarians would be completely finished. This was the annihilation of a great nation!

Lin Yi stretched and laughed, "Alright, let's begin the attack!"

After these days of preparation, all kinds of supplies have basically arrived, and it's time to start the battle for Great Jade Mountain.

Now that the war drums have sounded for most of the night, and the enemy is exhausted and sleepy, it is the best time for our side to launch an attack.

He slowly walked outside. The soldiers had been waiting for a long time, and all it took was one order to unleash their fury!

Zhang Liao!

"Your subordinate is here!" Zhang Liao's eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped forward.

Lin Yi nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "In this battle, we will divide our forces into three routes, striving to annihilate the main force of the Northern Barbarians Northern Barbarians at Great Jade Mountain and crush their last hope."

The main battlefront is the most difficult, and I have decided that you will be the vanguard to break through the enemy's first line of defense. Do you have the confidence?

The main battlefield is undoubtedly the toughest nut to crack!

As long as Tuoba Wanli isn't foolish, he will station his elite troops at the front, making the main battlefield the most difficult.

This time, a quick breakthrough of the enemy's front-line defenses is needed, so the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, with their combined offensive and defensive capabilities, is undoubtedly the best choice. Therefore, Lin Yi decided to entrust this task to Zhang Liao!

"Rest assured, my lord, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry will guarantee the mission's success!" Zhang Liao said excitedly.

Lin Yi nodded slightly and looked at Bai Zizai, Qu Yi, and the others.

The presence of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry on the main battlefield is enough to break through the enemy's defenses, but the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry alone cannot take the main battlefield; they also need assistance.

He said in a deep voice, " Bai Zizai, Qu Yi, Gao Shun, listen to my command!"

"Your subordinate is here!"

"The three of you are responsible for assisting Zhang Liao in defeating the enemy's main battlefront!"

"Your subordinate obeys!"

The three were thrilled; facing them head-on was a tough nut to crack, but this time the quantity was definitely plentiful.

" Gongsun Zan!"

"Your subordinate is here!" Gongsun Zan stepped forward.

"I'm entrusting the left flank to you. Once the main battle begins, I want you to take advantage of the enemy's confusion and quickly penetrate deep into their territory to disrupt their formation. Do you have the confidence?"

"Rest assured, my lord, the White Horse Volunteers your sharpest weapon, capable of slaying any enemy!" Gongsun Zan said solemnly.

kindness!

Lin Yi nodded slightly, then looked at Ma Chao and said in a deep voice, " Ma Chao, the right flank is in your hands this time! Your task is very important. You not only need to intercept the enemy's retreat, but also block their reinforcements. Are you confident?"

"Rest assured, my lord, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry fears no enemy. If they dare to show themselves, they will surely die!" Ma Chao was overjoyed. His mission was so important; this was a great achievement!

After arranging everything, Lin Yi summoned Jia Xu and said with a smile, " Wenhe, you will come with me this time. We'll go and see just how strong this Northern Barbarians King really is, daring to provoke my Xiliang!"

The main battlefield was undoubtedly the primary battlefield, and missing this battle would have resulted in enormous losses.

According to the intelligence from Net, Tuoba Wanli has personally come to the battlefield, so it's really necessary to keep this guy here this time.

"Haha, the thing Tuoba Wanli regrets most in his life is probably provoking our lord!" Jia Xu couldn't help but laugh heartily, his face full of meaning.

You might survive if you offend others, but if you offend your own lord, you'll be trapped with nowhere to go!
