A few days later, the imperial decree officer brought the Golden Guards to Youzhou and gathered the civil and military officials of Youzhou to read out the imperial decree in the Governor's Office.
After the imperial edict was read out, the generals of Youzhou were summoned by the Imperial Censorate to read out the Emperor's secret edict.
After hearing the secret decree, the Youzhou generals all had different expressions.
After the imperial decree officer left, the Prince of Yan, Li Yi, the Governor of Youzhou, gave some instructions to the generals before letting them leave.
In the Governor's Office's study.
"Your Highness, the meaning of this secret edict is to give up White Cloud City and ask us to ignore it.”Governor Shi Gulun said with an inexplicable expression.
"So what? Can we disobey the decree now?”Li Yi smiled bitterly and said to the two of them,"Let's give a warning to White Cloud City. We can't do anything else.”
"Here!"
"In addition, I'll have to trouble the two of you to take inventory of the army's equipment and supplies. You must ensure that the supplies, arrows, and equipment are complete.”
"Rest assured, Your Highness!"
Then, the two of them left. Li Yi wrote another secret letter and got someone to send it to White Cloud City.
At the same time, the chief historian, Gu Lun, also sent messengers to White Cloud City to inform them.
When he received the news from the Governor of Youzhou and Li Yi, Li Lin smiled.
According to the information from the Shadow Secret Guards, the yellow sable tribe would definitely invade the south.
However, even if they wanted to invade the south, they would have to wait until the middle of November.
This was because their preparations were not complete yet.
Moreover, the Shadow Secret Guards had been monitoring them.
As long as the enemy army started to gather, the Shadow Secret Guards would send a message back.
There was still more than half a month's time for the North Manor Army to form their initial combat strength.
At that time, the Tiger Guards and Iron Eagle Warriors would be the main force, and the Breaking Ranks would stay in White Cloud City. Li Lin wanted to give the yellow marten tribe a head-on attack.
Time
passed day by day.
With the support of the special military camp and the massive amount of resources invested by Li Lin, the North Manor Army's strength had greatly increased even though they lacked a trace of baleful aura.
The loyalty of the 30,000 main troops had reached above 60. They had already practiced the four battle formations for a period of time. He believed that when the Yellow Mink Tribe invaded the south, the 30,000 main troops would be able to master the four battle formations.
At that time, the infantrymen would have the Fish Scale Formation, which could both attack and defend, the Goose Formation, the Eagle Wing Formation, which could be used by both the infantrymen and cavalry, and the Arrow Formation, which the cavalry used for charging.
With the support of these four battle formations, the 30,000 main army wasn't afraid of the 100,000 grassland army.
Furthermore, there were still the Tiger Guards and the Breaking Ranks Camp.
The North Mansion Army had 30,000 main troops, 10,000 cavalry and 20,000 infantry.
The Commander of the Cavalry Army was the General of the Imperial Residence, Li Cunxiao.
He is the commander of the infantry army, the commander of the army army, the commander commander of the army, the commander of the army, the commander of the army, and the commander of the army.
In
November, the temperature in the Northern Region plummeted. The people wrapped themselves in thin cotton clothes.
Although it was not the coldest time of the year, the ordinary people had already begun to warm themselves up.
At the back of King Jing's residence.
"Sign in."
"You have successfully signed in. Congratulations to the host for signing in 100 low grade Zhuge repeating ballistae and 100,000 three-star armor-piercing heavy arrows. 10,000 Body Tempering Pills, 3,000 Bone-Forging Pills, and 1,000 Tendon Changing Pills.”
"The heavens are helping me!"
Li Lin was overjoyed when he saw the reward given by the system.
The Zhuge Repeating Ballistae, which had reached the low grade of the Mortal class, could fire twenty armor-piercing heavy arrows at once, which was two thousand arrows in a single round.
Furthermore, the heavy arrows that were specially made for these low grade Mortal ballistae were much larger than the heavy arrows fired by the strong crossbows in the army.
Without the protection of the treasured armor, even a Connate Blood Solidification Realm expert would be killed by a ballista.
As for Marrow Cleansing realm experts, their strength was already extraordinary. Just relying on the heavy arrows fired by the ballistae probably could not do anything to them.
In the Yellow Marten Tribe, the strongest was only at the peak of the Marrow Cleansing realm.
Almost all of the Turk wolf clan's divine treasures experts were in the Imperial Court.
Some large tribes might have one or two of them.
This was also the reason why the Turkic Wolf Clan's Golden Clan had been able to sit on the throne for so long.
After rewarding his subordinates, Li Lin took out all the Body Tempering Pills, 1,000 Bone-Forging Pills, and 100 Tendon Changing Pills. He handed them to Dian Wei and ordered him to escort them to the military camp for Li Cunxiao and Gao Shun to distribute.
Li Lin took out 600 of the remaining 900 Tendon Changing Pills and gave them to Dian Wei and Xu Chu respectively. He asked them to reward their trusted soldiers or give them to their trusted soldiers who had not broken through to the Tendon Changing Realm.
These personal guards who had yet to break through were only lacking in accumulation. Now that they had the Tendon Changing Pill, it would probably not be long before they would break through.
As expected, on the second day, the Breaking Ranks Camp and the Iron Eagle elite soldiers had no one below Tendon Changing Realm.
With that, the two thousand soldiers of the Yue Cavalry Battalion could be used as lieutenants.
With two of these soldiers and a thousand soldiers, coupled with the special Battle Formation Catalog, once they were on the battlefield, they would definitely become the Asura who harvested the enemy's heads.
Three days later, a large number of pills were distributed, allowing the battle strength of the 30,000 main army to improve greatly.
10,000 Body Tempering Pills allowed countless soldiers to break through and officially enter the Body Tempering Realm.
One thousand Bone-Forging Pills were given to the soldiers who had reached the peak of the Body Tempering Realm, and one hundred Tendon Changing Pills were given to the soldiers who had reached the peak of the Bone-Forging Realm.
As a result, there were more than 20,000 Body Tempering Realm soldiers in the 30,000 main army, and thousands of Bone-Forging Realm soldiers.
There were even more than 200 Tendon Transformation realm generals.
Several of them had reached the Connate Realm, the Blood Solidification Realm, and two Divine Treasure Realm generals.
Not to mention that there were nearly a hundred Connate experts in the Tiger Army.
Ten Hundred Generals and two Five Hundred Generals, and they were at the Marrow Cleansing realm. Thousand Generals had even reached the late-stage of the Connate Marrow Cleansing realm. They were only half a step away from entering the peak of the Marrow Cleansing realm.
In the remaining few days, Li Lin was prepared to give a stalk of precious medicine to each of the thousand soldiers of the Tiger Guards, Breaking Ranks Camp, and Iron Eagle Elite Soldiers to see if their strength could improve further.
It was also because there were very few pills available for the Connate realm that Li Lin had signed in at the moment and had already used them up. Otherwise, his elite subordinates could have taken pills and steadily entered the Connate realm.
If there were thousands of Connate Cultivators and an army with the support of the Battle Formation Catalog, Li Lin would not be afraid even if they were Martial Arts Grandmasters or Spirit Cultivators.
They might even be able to surround and kill him.
North
of the Pillar of Heavens Mountains, the yellow sable tribe closest to the Pillar of Heavens Mountains began to slaughter cattle and sheep to prepare food for the army.
This time, they prepared food for ten days.
As for the rest, he didn't prepare any more. At the same time, the Khagan of the Yellow Marten Tribe did not plan to bring any logistics with him.
This time, they were only going to the Southern Territory to plunder. They did not want captives or beauties. They only needed to plunder enough goods and resources.
Thus, the Yellow Marten Khagan was prepared to travel lightly and lead eighty thousand elites south. Excluding the time spent on marching, they only had five days to prepare for the actual battle and plunder.
Five days later, they had to retreat.
Otherwise, when the Youzhou army reacted and the snow sealed the mountain, they would have to pay a huge price to return.
His goal was clear.
It was the White Cloud City in the northernmost part of Youzhou Province!
