Lin Qing Yu rode on the Dark King Warhorse and carried a huge sword on his back.
"Let's go, Central Prefecture Marquis. This place is about 500 kilometers away from Barren City. With your temper, you might choose to march quickly.”Uncle Wang reminded.
"Got it!" The Central Prefecture Marquis nodded and looked at the people from the Central Prefecture.
"Everyone, how long do you think it will take for the Northern Battlefront Army to march to Upper Barren City?”
General Mo took the lead and said," If it's the elites of the Central Plains Army, they can run 20 miles in an hour. They can march for at most 10 to 18 hours a day. If they march continuously and maintain their combat effectiveness, they will need more than five days. If we consider the rapid march of a large army, especially if it's more than 100,000 people, it may take about six days.”
"It seems that it will take some time to follow the Northern Battlefront Army to attack the Barbarians.”The Central Prefecture Marquis nodded.
At this moment, Lin Qing Yu's voice sounded,""Where is General Cheng Lin?"
"Your subordinate is here!" General Cheng Lin, who was in charge of the First Corps, stepped forward.
"Inform the Northern Battlefront Army to enter a state of rapid march and head to Upper Barren City at full speed!”
"Yes, sir!"
"All troops, listen up! Under Lord Marquis 'orders, the entire army entered a state of rapid march!”Cheng Lin immediately gave Lin Qing Yu an order.
When the words " urgent march " appeared, the Marquis of Zhongzhou and the others could clearly feel the change in the Northern Battlefront Army's momentum.
"Start marching!"
The 100,000 strong army began to charge forward at high speed…the entire team's movements were uniform, and the soldiers seemed to be replicating each other.
Dong dong ~ The rapid march was uniform, reflecting a different kind of beauty.
When the Northern Battlefront Army began to march, the people of the Central Plains were stunned.
"This... the running speed is too fast. It's at least three times faster than the Central Plains Army.”A general of the Central Plains could not help but exclaim.
"Even the Northern Battlefront Army can only last six hours at this speed, right?”
It was common knowledge that the faster one ran, the greater the consumption of physical strength. If it was an ordinary person, they would be so tired that they would not be able to get up in two hours. An army formed by martial artists might be able to last longer because of their True Qi, but they would not be able to hold on for four hours at most.
The Northern Battlefront Army was the elite of the elite in the eyes of the people in the Central Plains, but they estimated that they would only have six hours at most.
However, as time passed, the people of the Central Plains felt that something was wrong.
Six hours had passed, but the Northern Battlefront Army's speed had not decreased at all. Moreover, their marching pace was still neat. No one was left behind, and even their breathing was not erratic.
"Really? The rapid march at this speed actually showed no signs of stopping? The Northern Battlefront Army... This endurance was too ridiculous.”General Mo was the first to be shocked.
He had thought that the Northern Battlefront Army was brave, but now he realized that he was wrong. The endurance of the Northern Battlefront Army was ridiculous.
" General Mo, you don't have to be surprised. Every soldier of the Northern Battlefront Army can run for at least 12 hours and maintain a certain level of combat effectiveness.”" The Northern Battlefront Army of the Northern Barbarian City has a harder time," Li Cang said lightly." It's normal for them to march for twenty hours."”
"This…is too ridiculous." The Central Prefecture Marquis couldn't help but say,"With this speed, wouldn't we be able to reach Upper Barren City in a day?"”
"Can you really preserve your combat strength by running at this intensity?”General Mo's eyes were filled with suspicion.
"Of course you can." General Li Cang smiled and said," The Northern Battlefront Army has a unique way of circulating Genuine Qi during a rapid march. We can enhance our endurance through the circulation of Genuine Qi. Every soldier of the Northern Battlefront Army has far more endurance than a regular army. They can endure such a rapid march.”
As soon as he said that, the people of the Central Plains could not help but think of the almost monstrous training method of the Northern Battlefront Army.
The army advanced at an extremely fast speed.
After about 12 hours of continuous running, the shadow of Upper Barren City had already appeared in everyone's eyes.
Upper Barren City was already very close!
At this moment, Lin Qing Yu suddenly said,""Start slowing down and prepare to rest!”
The Northern Battlefront Army immediately slowed down. When they reached a long river, Lin Qing Yu stopped.
At this moment, the army also stopped advancing and began to rest on the spot. While eating the army rations, they began to recover their strength and energy.
The discipline of the entire army made everyone in the Central Plains marvel.
At this moment, Lin Qing Yu came in front of the Central Prefecture Marquis and smiled,""Central Prefecture Marquis, how do you feel about the first time you've experienced the rapid march of the Northern Battlefront Army?”
" The art of war says that speed is the most important thing in war. It was not until today that I finally understood what it means to march rapidly. I really can't think of any other army in the Tianwu Dynasty other than the Northern Battlefront Army that can do such a rapid march.”The Central Prefecture Marquis was not stingy with his praise.
"But this place is close to Barren City. Is it dangerous to rest here? What if the barbarian soldiers of Shang Huang City waited for their fatigue?”The Central Prefecture Marquis expressed his worry.
"Marquis of Central Prefecture, the Northern Battlefront Army is trying to preserve our fighting strength. Do you think the barbarians will be fully prepared if we show up in Upper Barren City in a day?”Lin Qing Yu smiled.
Li Cang continued to explain,"
"The place where we are resting is easy to defend and difficult to attack. There is also a river as a natural barrier. If the barbarians want to attack us, they won't be able to come over in a short period of time.”Li Cang said,
" The Barbarians know the strength of the Northern Battlefront Army. As long as they analyze the battlefield, they will understand that attacking the Northern Battlefront Army is suicidal. Moreover, the reason for the hasty march is that Upper Barren City could not react in time. Even if they wanted to ask for help, the reinforcements would not be able to come in time. What they can do now is to use the city wall of Upper Barren City as a barrier to defend Upper Barren City.”
The Central Prefecture Marquis nodded his head repeatedly. Then, he couldn't help but ask,
"If the Barbarians were to defend against the high walls of the Barren City, even the Northern Battlefront Army would find it difficult to take down the city, right? If we attack forcefully, we should suffer heavy casualties."
"Strong Inner Void outside Shanghuang City." Lin Qingyu smiled and said,
"The Northern Battlefront Army will take down Barren City in one day!”
The Central Prefecture's Marquis and the people from the Central Prefecture were dumbfounded…
Take down Upper Barren City in a day? How was this possible?
