Meanwhile, on a distant Dashan, Huo Qubing had his sights set on the army in Aksu!
Through his telescope, he saw the massive army of Frostwest, and his eyes gleamed as he muttered to himself, "Nearly 400,000 troops, with inadequate defensive fortifications!"
The army did not launch an offensive, lacking confidence.
Our troops are in high spirits, and the enemy is filled with fear. This battle is going to be very successful!
Despite facing an enemy force that clearly outnumbered their own, they did not launch an attack but instead engaged in various probing maneuvers, which, frankly, indicated a lack of confidence.
From another perspective, morale is low!
Furthermore, although the enemy appeared large, they lacked sufficient defensive fortifications, meaning they were unable to stop the cavalry's advance.
Based on this alone, even if he had more troops, it wouldn't be a problem.
His eyes grew brighter and brighter, and he couldn't help but feel restless.
If these armies were wiped out, the northwestern region of Frostwest would become the backyard of Great Liang, which would be of great significance.
Slurp!
Xiaohu swallowed hard and said excitedly, "General, the enemy army still has a large number of defeated soldiers from before. These people are like frightened birds."
If we charge through, they'll be utterly routed! We'll be rich!
In his eyes, these 400,000-plus troops were nothing but glittering military achievements, simply there to give him credit.
If these people are eliminated, not only will the general take off, but his subordinates will also rise to prominence.
Maybe I'll get promoted a few levels, then I'll look good when I go out.
"No more words, let's get him!" A Si was also determined to kill him; only an enemy lying on the ground was the best.
The generals around him were also extremely excited, wishing they could rush over and crush the enemy to pieces. So what if they were outnumbered? They were invincible!
"Haha, good bro!"
Seeing his brothers' reactions, Huo Qubing immediately laughed and raised his hands, ready to launch this war against overwhelming odds.
Just as Xiaohu said, there were many defeated soldiers among the opposing team, so their morale must be very low.
As long as our elite troops launch a fierce attack, the enemy will collapse on their own!
"Damn, you're going to fight about this too?"
Mo Yi, standing to the side, couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine. He had been following Huo Qubing and the others these past few days and felt like he had truly broadened his horizons.
It's one thing for 300,000 men to march into a country's territory, but to be so excited when facing an army of over 400,000 is just outrageous.
He couldn't help but glance at Mo Er beside him and whispered, "Heaven and earth bear witness, someone actually called us robbers? These guys are the real robbers!"
This is even more outrageous than robbery!
At this moment, he finally understood why Huo Qubing had only ordered them to attack Great Jade River and then left them to their own devices.
It wasn't that he was being merciful; rather, he looked down on people like them.
"Don't talk nonsense, or I'll beat you up too!" Mo Er glanced cautiously at Huo Qubing in the distance and whispered.
He was also terrified, fearing that Huo Qubing would go berserk and kill him too, which would be a great injustice.
He had no doubt about the outcome. If Huo Qubing, this big shot, were to make a move, his men would probably be no match for him; these men were too ruthless.
Just like on the previous battlefield, it wasn't that the Frostwest army was incompetent, it was just that Huo Qubing was too ruthless!
Seemingly sensing their gaze, Huo Qubing glanced at the two men and said in a deep voice, "You two need to pay close attention to transporting supplies. This is going to be a tough battle, and logistics must keep up."
If you delay my business, I will slaughter you all!
Waaaaah!
Mo Er and the other looked at each other, both on the verge of tears.
He used to be the big boss of this area, but now he's been reduced to cleaning up the battlefield and collecting corpses, and now he even has to transport supplies. It's just too miserable.
The two men couldn't help but want to shout in their hearts, "We're not just porters, we're robbers too!"
Mo Er took a deep breath and said in a solemn voice, "General, rest assured, I will absolutely not delay your plans, otherwise I will commit suicide to atone for my sins!"
"It is our duty Mo Yi, to step up no matter how difficult it may be," Mo Yi said solemnly, unwilling to be outdone.
Just then, a figure squeezed out from the side—it was David, the Frostwest general who had previously defected to Huo Qubing. He said with a fawning expression, "General, although Frostwest is my homeland, I, David, am willing to do anything for you!"
"Damn it, someone actually stole our job!" Upon hearing this, Mo Yi and Mo Er were immediately enraged.
This is practically vying for favor; it's downright suicide.
Thinking of this, the two brothers' eyes suddenly turned murderous as they looked at this guy. This guy, a Frostwest, was actually trying to steal their business.
Seeing their reaction, Xiaohu glared at them and said in a deep voice, "Shut up, both of you, and get back to work, or I'll kill you all!"
They're just a bunch of spoils of war; they're only causing trouble for their master. What's the point of keeping them?
"General, please calm down!"
The three men's expressions changed, and they quickly shut their mouths.
Huo Qubing ignored them and was about to order an attack when he turned his head and paused for a moment.
Upon closer inspection, the enemy began to retreat, showing no intention of engaging in battle.
He frowned and said, "Something's wrong. Are they trying to escape? This is outrageous! They're clearly trying to toy with me! Charge!"
With a wave of his hand, his army charged forward without hesitation; he had no intention of letting the enemy escape.
In this terrain, any so-called ambush is utterly worthless; against a large cavalry force, those little bit of tripwires and chevaux-de-frise are useless.
After all, there aren't many obstacles, and obstacles are inanimate, but people are alive and can be bypassed.
"Kill!"
After a loud roar, 300,000 Feathered Forest Army surged toward Aksu like a tidal wave.
Even if the enemy has an army of 400,000, so what? The Feathered Forest Army have never been afraid of anyone, let alone a tough battle!
The mighty army swept out, instantly causing Aksu, who hadn't gone far, to change his expression drastically. "Damn it, I'm not even going to fight you, and you still want to fight me? This is too much!"
Fortunately, there were enough obstacles set up to allow them to evacuate.
But the next second, they saw the fierce Feathered Forest Army appear in their field of vision, and the murderous aura emanating from them made them break out in a cold sweat.
These are a bunch of lunatics; all they care about is killing the enemy!
Grunt!
Ali and the others couldn't help but swallow hard. This was too ruthless! No wonder he was Huo Qubing; he was simply audacious.
Luckily we moved quickly, or they would have attacked us!
"Minister, the enemy has already advanced, and I'm afraid we can't retreat!" A general, steeling himself, ran to Aksu's side and shouted.
Aksu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, I was prepared. They won't come!"
