When the golden body of the Overlord left Makino City, he was ready to assemble a team to repair which viscount bought black iron.
On the seventh plane, Li Wenhao also opened his eyes from meditating, stretched, stood up and walked outside the tent.
Outside, it's dusk, and the faint smell of rice is wafting in the air!
According to his order, the left and right cavalry camps, Huo Yao, Zhebie and other high-level generals have already set off in advance with three thousand fire spirits and one thousand fire scorpion cavalry. These highly mobile teams have set off in advance.
Lying in ambush on the way the Sand Clan army retreated, ambushing them along the way.
Outside the big tent, only one of his fifth-level fire scorpions and his deputy commander Qiao Feng were standing guard around with some soldiers.
"Your Majesty!" Qiao Feng saw Li Wenhao coming out and hurriedly came up to him and clasped his fists: "The sentry came to report that the Sand Clan army is leaving the Central Sichuan Army Camp and retreating towards Guchuan County. The number is close to 100,000."
"Let's go to the artillery position and take a look!"
Li Wenhao nodded slightly, got on his fifth-level Fire Scorpion, and headed towards the front line.
"Wait a minute, we're going too!" Passing by a tent, Elena took Xuan Hongyi's little hand and hurried out.
Without waiting for Li Wenhao's permission, he grabbed the hem of his skirt and climbed up hand in hand.
Girls' friendship is so strange. They just had a falling out, so that's fine.
Li Wenhao was looking through some information, glanced at it speechlessly, and said nothing more.
"You haven't had dinner yet, try the barbecue meatballs I made!" Elena sat down next to Li Wenhao, holding a few skewers of barbecue meatballs in her hand, her little face seemed very happy.
Xuan Hongyi lowered her head and did not sit on the other side of Li Wenhao. Instead, she sat glumly behind Elena, keeping some distance from Li Wenhao and Elena.
Li Wenhao looked back and felt a little strange, but then he thought about it, it would be better this way, it would save everyone trouble.
"Hey, I'm talking to you!" Elena was unhappy when she saw Li Wenhao turning back to look at Xuan Hongyi, so she directly put a bunch of half-eaten barbecue meatballs in her hand into Li Wenhao's mouth.
"Okay, I'm busy, go play by yourself!" Li Wenhao opened his mouth, took a bite, and continued to read the information in his hand.
The Sha tribe army commanded by Baimu Qingfu first lost more than 20,000 infantrymen in Guchuan County, of which 10,000 were battle formation soldiers.
In the cavalry battle during the day, the 60,000 cavalrymen were almost completely lost under his special attack, and only a few thousand of them escaped back to the camp.
Therefore, out of the original army of hundreds of thousands of sand tribes, there were only less than 100,000 left, about 80,000 to 90,000.
Although Zhang Daoying's Central Sichuan Army suffered heavy losses in Guchuan County, it lost nearly 60,000 infantry, including all battle formation soldiers and the Black Demon Army.
However, the cavalry losses were relatively small. Of the 60,000 cavalry, more than 20,000 fled back to the main camp, and the total strength was about 80,000 to 90,000.
Of course, according to his understanding of Zhang Daoying, he must have hidden some of his strength.
Coupled with the detour to retreat from Qingyang County and join the Central Sichuan Army along the way, it is estimated that the total strength will soon reach more than 200,000!
But even if this kid has more troops, he can't hide for a while. After returning to Chuanzhong County, won't he still have to be cannon fodder for the Sha tribe?
"No, Zhang Daoying doesn't want to go back to Chuanzhong County!"
Li Wenhao suddenly shook his head, blurted out, quickly took out a map and spread it on the carpet.
Qingyang County is adjacent to Chuanzhong County on one side and Tiechuan County on the other. After Yancheng in Tiechuan County, it is Kyoto County!
However, at this time, the Northern Huns' 500,000-strong army marched south, Emperor Youwu issued the order of King Qin, and the Tiechuan Hou family sent a 100,000-strong army. It was a time of emptiness!
"Are you scaring me to death?" Irina was biting into a barbecued meatball when she was so shocked that Li Wenhao shouted in her throat that she almost choked. She stretched out her little hand to pinch the soft flesh of Li Wenhao's waist.
"Stop it, Zhang Daoying wants to attack Tiechuan County!"
Li Wenhao grabbed Elena's little hand and looked at Qiao Feng who was guarding the side: "Send someone to keep an eye on the Sichuan Army camp. The person who sent the crystal cannon is here. Bring him to me immediately!"
"Obey the order!" Qiao Feng was slightly startled, and then arranged for the two soldiers behind him to go to the front line to deliver the order.
"Zhang Daoying wants to attack Tiechuan County secretly?" After listening to Li Wenhao's words, Elena stopped making trouble and whispered softly: "Tiechuan County is close to Kyoto County. The Tiechuan Wang family does not have the strength of Chuanzhong Marquis. Emperor Youwu ordered him
Don't dare not listen.
Therefore, Marquis Tiechuan must send a large army north to King Qin, so Zhang Daoying picked a good time to avoid your attack on Chuanzhong County and occupy a piece of his own territory!"
"Hmph, I think this kid is very ambitious and wants to be independent!" Li Wenhao snorted unhappily.
He felt that he had been fooled by Zhang Daoying, and the left and right cavalry, high-ranking generals, and three thousand fire spirits were all sent to deal with the Sand Clan army.
He only has two thousand golden-armored warriors and one hundred thousand ordinary soldiers. It's not that he can't deal with Zhang Daoying now, but it's just a waste of time and will delay the pursuit and suppression of the Sha Clan army.
"You are so cautious that you are allowed to leave the family and become king on your own, but you are not allowed to have any small ambitions!"
Elena rolled her eyes and hummed: "I think Zhang Daoying's sneak attack on Tiechuan County is not a bad thing.
Firstly, it will not affect your attack on Meishan in Sichuan Province, and secondly, it will give you an excuse to attack Tiechuan County in the future!"
"It's a joke, I, Li Wenhao, can hit whoever I want. Do I need an excuse?" Li Wenhao glared disdainfully, and by the way, he held Elena in his arms and pinched her buttocks hard.
"You're going to die, that's meat, not iron!" Irina burst into tears in pain, and scratched Li Wenhao's ears with her little paws.
The two of them were fighting, Xuan Hongyi was sitting in the back with a miserable look on her face, she was worried about her parents' safety, and she didn't dare to ask.
Soon, a group of people came to the front line. Three highlands and undulating hills were filled with troops. They were only three miles away from the Sichuan Army camp in front!
Li Rong's new fourth battalion stayed at the main camp, Ehu's new first battalion, Li Erkui's new second battalion, and Hu Weiyong's new fifth battalion, a total of more than 80,000 people, all lined up in formation, ready to attack.
At this time, the sky was already dark, and the soldiers lit bonfires and raised torches. The stars were dotted, which was quite spectacular.
Li Wenhao went up to a hill facing the main entrance of the Central Sichuan Army Camp. Along the way, he could see black iron cannons that had been arranged in place one by one.
As the Mocheng Arsenal started working day and night, not only a large number of black iron cannons were equipped with troops, but also black iron cannons were equipped with two-wheeled wooden gun carriages.
The Langya Army now has 500 black iron cannons and has established five independent artillery battalions.
Three soldiers are responsible for one black iron cannon, and one battalion has one hundred guns. Including logistics, one battalion has a total of four thousand people!
Here, there are a total of two hundred black iron cannons and two artillery battalions on standby.
