"My Lord, Nanzhao has sent people!”
Early in the morning, Li Ke received a report from his subordinates that Nanzhao had actually sent someone.
"Hmph, their actions aren't slow!”
It had only been two days since he unified the Hundred Thousand Mountains, and he had just finished digesting them when the other party came knocking on his door, much faster than the Great Tang.
When they arrived at the living room, they saw a Nanzhao person. His clothes were also different from those of the Central Plains.
However, Li Ke felt a trace of arrogance from him.
"You are the boss of the Blazing Flame Army?" When this Nanzhao man saw Li Ke, he immediately stood up and asked condescendingly.
"Yes, so what?"
Li Ke was very unhappy with this guy's gaze. This guy was really a little arrogant.
The Nanzhao man took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Li Ke, saying in a deep voice,"I am the envoy of Nanzhao. I have come under the orders of my Lord to have you submit to us.”
Li Ke opened the letter and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. This Nanzhao guy was quite interesting. He actually wanted him to surrender and become a Nanzhao citizen. He was simply thinking too much.
These guys had probably suppressed these bandits a lot in the past, so they were used to being arrogant. They didn't know that the owner of this place had changed.
Thinking of this, he could not help but say playfully,"Did your boss tell you what would happen if I didn't agree?”
"You're courting death!"
The Nanzhao envoy immediately slammed the table and stood up, angrily saying,""Do you know that if you don't agree to the arrival of my Nanzhao's 70,000 strong army, then your few men are completely useless!”
"I'm really scared!"
Li Ke waved his hand at Li Yi, indicating for him to deal with this guy.
Li Yi was overjoyed when he heard that. He had tolerated this guy for a long time just now, and he actually dared to show off in front of his lord. He was simply courting death.
He walked straight to the Nanzhao envoy!
"What do you want to do? I'm a Nanzhao envoy!"
Crack!
Li Yi broke his neck and sneered,""Chatting so early in the morning, do you really think that you're very awesome? You actually dare to disturb the Lord's peace!”
"You guys are courting death!"
Seeing the envoy killed, the expressions of the few Southern Zhao soldiers changed drastically, and they drew their sabers and charged at Li Ke.
Puff! Puff!
With a flash of saber light, these few Southern Champion soldiers had already fallen to the ground, fresh blood spurting out from their throats.
In front of them was Jiang Yingyu's Green Dragon Crescent Blade.
Seeing this scene, Li Ke could not help but have a better understanding of Jiang Yingyu's strength. The speed of the blade just now was so fast that he almost did not see it clearly. As expected of a general-level existence.
"Old Eagle, you're so angry early in the morning!”He could not help but laugh.
A fatal strike. This was definitely a sure-kill strike.
Jiang Yingyu shook his head with a bitter smile and explained,""My lord, it is because of these Nanzhao people. According to the scouts, they are approaching us.”
As the commander of the Blazing Flame Army, he had to guard against the strange movements of the Nanzhao people, so he was very angry.
Li Ke nodded and smiled.”
Not long after, Wei Ling came. Seeing that the big shots were all here, she couldn't help but be a little surprised."My lord, why did you call me?"
"How's the Nanzhao information you've collected these past two days? It's finally useful now!”Li Ke laughed.
"My lord is going to attack Nanzhao?"
Wei Ling's eyes lit up. Li Ke was indeed worthy of being a prince. He was preparing to attack Nanzhao so quickly. It was really too awesome.
"How is the situation in Nanzhao now? Your people should have mixed in, right?”Li Ke asked.
War required intelligence, and one needed to know oneself and the enemy, so one had to speak with facts.
Wei Ling nodded and introduced," The strength of Nanzhao is complicated now. There are a few large tribes that control actual power. The most famous of them is Zhang Lejin and the Six Zhaos!”
"However, our current enemy is not them. What we are going to face now are only some small tribes.”
"Even so, they still have tens of thousands of troops. It's not that easy to fight them.”
It turned out that Nanzhao hadn't established a country at the moment. Now, these areas were divided by several large tribes, and it could be said that they were a place where heroes rose together.
The strongest of them was Zhang Lejin Qiu from the White Country. He was the leader of the largest tribe in the area.
Then there were the six edicts, namely the River Barbarians 'Langqiong Zhao, Denghe Zhao, and Shilang Zhao, the Ailao people's Mengshe Zhao and Menghe Zhao, and the Mohe people's Yuexi Zhao.
Later, with the help of the Great Tang, Mengshe Zhao rose to power and destroyed the other five Zhao, establishing Nanzhao.
Of course, that was later. Right now, they were in a state of disunity.
The current Southern Barbarian Region was still in the tribal era, so it was impossible to gather a large-scale army. This gave him an opportunity.
The chance to unify the south and annex Nanzhao in the future!
"The heavens are helping me!"
Hearing this, Li Ke could not help but slam the table and stand up.
"Jiang Yingyu, how many men do you think we need to destroy the southern tribes?”
He looked at his subordinate, Jiang Yingyu. He was a talented general, so perhaps he would be more objective.
"Destroy the southern tribes?"
Jiang Yingyu's eyes lit up. He was very interested in fighting. After thinking for a while, he started calculating.
After a long time, he came up with a number.
"My lord, with our weapons and equipment, we only need 70,000 troops to crush the southern tribes!”
Seventy thousand?
Li Ke shook his head. If it was a decisive battle with Nanzhao, perhaps so many people would be needed.
However, Nanzhao had yet to be unified, and they were just scattered sand. Perhaps they did not need 70,000 soldiers at all, and it was enough to open the gates to the south.
With this thought in mind, Li Ke could not hold it in anymore.
Instead of waiting for Nanzhao to react, it was better to take the initiative to attack and catch them off guard. This was the most important thing.
He couldn't help but look at Wei Ling.
"What tribe are these guys from? How dare they threaten this king?”
"The Adu Tribe has a population of 100,000, and more than 40,000 people who can fight!”
"Cheers!"
Li Ke looked at Jiang Yingyu with a burning gaze and said solemnly,"Jiang Yingyu, do you dare to imitate Wei and Huo?”
Wei Huo's merit!
What kind of existence was that? It was the merit of destroying countless countries.
Hearing this, the breathing in the hall became hurried. This was the greatest honor of a soldier since ancient times. If one did not want to be such a person, then one would not be a mature soldier.
Even Wei Ling couldn't help but feel her blood boil. If she could follow her lord to conquer the south, she would be a female general whose name would be left in history.
"Lord, please give the order!"
Jiang Yingyu immediately stood up, his chest heaving up and down violently. It was obvious that he could no longer calm down.
At this moment, he no longer hesitated and directly chose to advance.
"Very good, that's more like it!"
Li Ke could not help but laugh. Although this guy was a product of the system, he was still a soldier. This kind of merit was not something that anyone could refuse.
In other words, as long as they were soldiers, there was no one who did not want to seal Wolf Juxu and the government.
"Jiang Yingyu, listen up!"
"I'm here!"
"This king allows you to lead thirty thousand troops and attack the border of the Ado tribe tonight.”
"This battle will be fought without a declaration!"
This war did not need a reason!
The purpose of asking was to unify the country.
Jiang Yingyu's face flushed red as he said excitedly,""I accept your orders!"
"Wei Ling, listen up!"
"Your subordinate is here!"
Wei Ling didn't think that she would be involved in this matter. She directly stood up, but she was secretly curious."My lord, what do you want me to do?”
"Your mission is very simple. Send all your scouts into the Southern Champion territory to provide intelligence to the army. The rest is to cause as much trouble as you want.”
"Make trouble as much as you want?"
Wei Ling was stunned at first, but then she felt a little expectant. This was the first time she had been ordered to cause trouble like this.
"That's right, we can't give them a chance to join forces!”
Wei Ling suddenly understood. If they didn't have the chance to join forces, they could take them down one by one.
"Wei Ling accepts the order!"
She said goodbye to Li Ke excitedly and went to set up first.
The army did not move, and the scouts went ahead.
The battle had already been decided.
At this moment, Jiang Yingyu realized that Li Ke had given all his men to him. Wouldn't his lord be in danger? He couldn't help but kneel down.
"My lord, I only need 20,000 soldiers. The others should stay behind to protect you!”
His lord was the leader of the Blazing Flame Army. If something happened to him, everything would be over. This was something he absolutely could not agree to.
"Don't worry, this king has his own way!”
Now that he had occupied two gold mines, he could earn about 15,000 gold coins a day. In addition to the gold coins he had seized from Lantao Island, he did not lack people at all.
Jiang Yingyu reluctantly agreed and went down to prepare for the battle.
