"Hurry up! Hurry up and get in the car!"
"Hurry up!"
"Everyone, get in the car!"
Zhu Xiong, who had returned to the supply camp from Xu Da's place, immediately ordered everyone to board the carriage.
At this moment, the soldiers of the supply camp were still holding bowls and eating lunch.
Zhu Rong's sudden order caught them off guard.
The soldiers of the supply camp hurriedly stuffed their lunch into their mouths. Their mouths were bulging, but their movements were not slow at all.
If anyone dared to delay Zhu Rong's orders, wouldn't they be like a dying old man?
In less than ten minutes, nearly a thousand soldiers of the supply camp had boarded the carriage.
Zhu Xiong didn't hesitate and immediately gave the order to set off.
Two hundred carriages instantly rushed out of the central army and sped toward the west.
At this moment, a few hundred households of the supply camp looked at the expressionless Zhu Rong and exchanged glances.
One of the centurions mustered his courage and asked,"
"Milord, what happened? Where are we going in such a hurry?”
Zhu Rong didn't say anything. He was thinking about Xu Da's words.
Infantry entering the grasslands was like sheep entering a wolf's den?
Zhu Xiong felt that it was not certain.
This was because Zhu Xiong had another type of troop-transporting chariot in his mind.
This kind of chariot required four fast horses to pull it at the same time, and it could transport fifty soldiers at once.
Moreover, there were protective plates on both sides of the tank, allowing the shooter to shoot as much as he wanted without being exposed.
The main point was that this kind of chariot could also charge into battle.
The force of the impact was definitely several times stronger than that of ordinary cavalry.
Furthermore, they could effectively form a chariot formation and resist the cavalry's archery.
The only problem was the warhorses.
Yes, this kind of chariot needed a warhorse to pull it, and it had to be an armored warhorse so that the enemy could hurt the warhorse.
If he could build such chariots on a large scale, then Lu Heng's infantry would be able to gallop through the grasslands to their hearts 'content.
Thinking of this, Zhu Xiong suddenly called out to a few hundred households,"
"I have a mission for you!"
The centurions were shocked and looked at Zhu Rong in unison.
"Sir, please instruct me!"
Zhu Rong said in a low voice,"
"Take these two hundred carriages and head west. Go to Gansu and find General Feng Sheng.”
As he spoke, Zhu Xiong took out a sealed emergency report and handed it to one of them.
"When you arrive, pass this urgent report to General Feng Sheng.”
"Remember, you only have one and a half days. I don't care what difficulties you encounter on the way, you must overcome them.”
"If this urgent report is not delivered to General Feng Sheng by noon the day after tomorrow, you will get out of the supply camp!”
"Our supply camp doesn't keep trash! Do you hear me?"
The few centurions shivered and quickly said respectfully,"
"Yes, sir! I promise to complete the mission!"
After saying that, a centurion couldn't help but ask,"
"Milord, aren't you coming with us?”
Zhu Rong snorted coldly,"
"If I have the ability, do you need me to give you the mission? Stupid!"
The centurion scratched his head in embarrassment and didn't care about Zhu Xiong's scolding. He just asked,"
"Then where are you going? Do you need us to send you there?"
Zhu Rong rolled his eyes at the centurion.
"Do you have enough time?"
"It doesn't seem to be enough."
"Then why are you spouting nonsense here!"
"When we cross the hill in front, put me down. Don't worry about my matters and complete your mission!”
"Yes, sir!"
The centurions didn't dare to say anything more.
Soon, the carriage of the supply camp passed the hill Zhu Rong had mentioned.
Zhu Rong jumped down from the carriage and made his way towards Yanmen Pass.
The few centurions stared blankly at the direction that Zhu Xiong had left.
"Where do you think Qian Hu is going?”
"Looking at the direction, we should be going to Yanmen."
"Uh, why did Qianhu go to Yanmen?"
"Didn't you ask yourself before?"
"I don't dare!"
"You make it sound like I dare."
"Alright, let's not argue about these meaningless things. The Thousand Households have given a death order. Before noon the day after tomorrow, we have to rush to Gansu to deliver the letter to the West Conquering General Feng Sheng. Instead of thinking about what the Thousand Households are going to do, it's better to think about how to complete the mission.”
"How do we complete the mission? Complete it to the death! Anyway, I don't want to be chased out of the supply camp.”
"You make it sound like we want to. Alright, let's inform our brothers below to start rushing with our lives!”
“……”
……
At midnight, Zhu Xiong arrived at Yanmen Pass, travel-worn.
After entering Yanmen Pass, Zhu Xiong went straight to Lu Heng and revealed his identity without a second word.
After seeing Zhu Xiong's Zhou Wang Token, Lu Heng was stunned. He had never thought that this thousand-man of the supply camp was actually a prince. He hurriedly bowed in panic.
"This subject Lu Heng greets Your Highness Prince Zhou!"
Zhu Xiong didn't have the time to argue with Lu Heng and said,
"Lu Heng, this king won't hide anything from you. I'll tell you clearly that the northern expedition is currently facing a huge problem. If you're not careful, you'll face a crushing defeat!”
Lu Heng shuddered at these words.
"W-what? The Northern Expedition Army was going to be defeated? Your Highness, is this true?"
Zhu Rong said in a low voice,"
"Do you think this king has the time to joke with you?”
"Right now, the eastern troops of our Northern Expedition Army are trapped in Cheng Hai by over a hundred thousand Yuan cavalry. Blue Jade's vanguard is also trapped in Lin.”
"The Great General has already brought the troops of the Central Army to Lin, but there are definitely more ambushes there.”
"It can be said that the entire Northern Expedition Army is in danger.”
Lu Heng's face turned pale.
"This, what should we do? Your Highness, do you want me to immediately lead the troops to the rescue?”
"But, but the guards of Yanmen are all infantry. It will be very dangerous to enter the grasslands rashly.”
Zhu Xiong shook his head and said,"
"There's no hurry. I didn't ask you to go and rescue them now. You should quickly transfer all the craftsmen in Yanmen.”
"Also, immediately think of a way to gather a large amount of wood and iron for this king. This king has a great use!”
Lu Heng was stunned, and he said cautiously,
"But Your Highness, rashly transferring military resources is a great crime. This official cannot bear this crime.”
Zhu Rong said solemnly,"
"This king will bear all the charges. Just do as this king requests!”
"If you delay the rescue, that will be your greatest sin!”
Lu Heng was startled, but he didn't dare to hesitate. He quickly said respectfully,
"Yes, sir!"
Not long after Zhu Xiong arrived at Yanmen Pass, several fast horses hurriedly left Yanmen Pass and headed all the way to the capital.
