”Hehe …” If cavalry of Youzhou has invited someone, it would be even better. ” Li Ru blinked his eyes and said unhurriedly: ”Even if the Youzhou has a good harvest and can support so many troops, how long will it take for him to transport all these food from the Youzhou to Hanoi? What did the Army of Montenegro eat in such a long time? I am sure that tomorrow, the Army of Montenegro will attack our camp without restraint. If they are unable to attack within three days, the Army of Montenegro will scatter. ”
”Oh …” Military Advisor is that confident? ” Although Guo Si had always admired Li Ru, he still couldn't believe Li Ru's certainty that he was going to lose. ”Military Advisor, could it be that cavalry of Youzhou doesn't even have three days' worth of food?”
”It's not easy for the six counties under Yang Lin's jurisdiction to feed the current cavalry brigade since their food supplies are insufficient. And from what we know, Yang Lin sealed Youzhou, so they did not transfer any food from Youzhou, so I'm sure that with the sudden increase in Army of Montenegro, with the food they have, they won't be able to sustain for three days. ”
Li Ru smiled confidently, and said with confidence. The war was about money and food, so Li Ru had been paying attention to the situation of the Youzhou's food shipments. If it was only the cavalry of Youzhou, maybe Li Ru would be a little nervous. But now that he had added the burden of the Army of Montenegro, he could relax.
”Immediately send my orders, all soldiers are to gather in the main camp and prepare to face the cavalry of Youzhou's attack.” Li Ru looked at Guo Si, and said solemnly: ”Immediately send a large group of Scouting horse s to all parts of the Jizhou to inquire about the situation of the transportation of food there. The moment we discover the Youzhou's food brigade, we will immediately report it. ”
Although Li Ru was smart, he was still wrong. It was not that Yang Lin did not have any food for three days, but rather, he did not have a single meal. If Li Ru were to order Guo Si to bring his cavalry up right now, he did not know whether the Army of Montenegro, who had not eaten for a day, would scatter in all directions.
When they were still 15 kilometers away from Li Ru's camp, Yang Lin picked a place to stop and ordered the soldiers to set up camp. He had to wait here for Guo Tong and Huo Lang to send him some food.
No one dared to speak a word during an emergency march. However, when the camp was ready and no one saw the fire start, the Army of Montenegro soldiers began to get restless. First, there were groups of people making a ruckus, followed by groups of people with ulterior motives shouting, causing the camp to suddenly tense up, as if it was about to explode at any moment.
Yang Lin had never encountered such a situation before, he knew that if he was careless for even a moment, it would cause the legendary camp to explode. Before Li Ru's West Cold Army could attack, the Black Hills himself would probably rebel. He knew what the soldiers were looking for, but he couldn't bring out a single grain.
He immediately brought his personal guards to the middle of the Army of Montenegro, wanting to explain things to everyone. Coincidentally, he saw Zhang Yan, Bai Rao, Wei Gu, Chen Lin, Yellow Dragon, Left Academy, Yang Feng, Yu Du, Tao Sheng, Liu Shan, Luo Shi, Lei Gong and more than ten other commanders of Black Hills.
Seeing Yang Lin coming over, Zhang Yan made a bitter face and said helplessly: ”Lord General, we have already sent people to pacify the soldiers, we will be fine for now. However, the soldiers were very hungry. They had to start a fire to cook … ”As time passes, I'm afraid we won't be able to suppress it …”
Yang Lin also wanted to cook, but there was no food … … But Yang Lin only nodded slightly, he did not reveal the anxiousness in his heart at all as he said indifferently, ”Five days ago, I already ordered the Jizhou to send over the food. If not for West Cold Army's interception, we should have arrived by now.”
What Yang Lin said was true, it was just that Guo Tong and Huo Lang were far away at the border of the River and did not know that Yang Lin had already led Black Hills to Huaixian. Even if they were immediately informed about it, it would be hard to deliver it within a day, and looking at the current Army of Montenegro, without waiting for the food to arrive, they would probably go into chaos.
”Report …” Just then, a few cavalrymen suddenly ran in from outside the camp and shouted loudly, ”Lord General, our food brigade is here. They were intercepted by the West Cold Cavalry fifty miles away, both sides are fighting fiercely.”
The entire camp was quiet as if they were dead, the soldiers of Black Hills stood blankly on the spot, their eyes looking at Yang Lin in anticipation. So the hussar general did not lie to them, it was just that the detestable West Cold Army blocked the food. An unknown soldier suddenly raised his arm and shouted.
”Kill that damned West Cold Army!”
This shout did not matter, the Army of Montenegro suddenly understood that his enemy was the repulsive West Cold Army. The soldiers' hatred and anger had finally found a target to vent.
”Kill that damned West Cold Army!”
”Kill that damned West Cold Army!”
”Kill that damned West Cold Army!”
Yang Lin could see clearly that the person who reported this information was none other than his intelligence officer Chen Cang and his personal guards. Chen Cang was not a exorcism, he seemed to be by his side just a moment ago. How did he know that the Youzhou's food team was fighting with a West Cold Cavalry fifty li away?
