Chapter 611 A battle to set the world
"I believe everyone has heard the news that I am going to launch the Northern Expedition. Today I am going to lead everyone through the Nudis Mountains, into the Chimir Grassland, sweep across the five major tribal alliances outside the Great Wall, and incorporate the entire north into the empire's territory..."

Lu Hao's voice was so domineering that it soared into the sky.

"The Emperor is wise! The Emperor is mighty!"

The blood of all soldiers is surging.

"All soldiers entered the canyon to rest for two hours, reorganize their armaments, replenish their physical fitness, and wait for the next order."

Lu Hao gave an order, and all the soldiers entered the canyon and began to rest on the spot.

Generals Pei Yong and Wu Ling came forward and reported carefully the situation of their respective armies.

General Pei Yong has 1 men, and he only has the guns and ammunition he carries with him, which is not very sufficient.

Although General Wu Ling only has 1 troops, he has enough guns and ammunition to arm [-] more people.

These guns and ammunition are now carried by a hundred war horses, which can just pass through the Nudis Mountains.

Of course, all of this has been planned by Lu Hao for a long time.

To be precise, from the moment he left the Far East Prairie, he had already begun to make plans.

Although civil strife broke out among the ethnic minorities in the empire's south, the Far Eastern Prairie, which had just gone through the baptism of war, was peaceful.

Therefore, Lu Hao dared to mobilize Wu Ling's army and all weapons and ammunition.

As for these consumables, the empire can transport them by sea directly to the Far Eastern Prairie at any time.

If they dare to rebel, they will have to bear the wrath of the Chinese Empire!
Lu Hao took out the simple map he had drawn and told the two generals the specific marching route. Only a section of the route required climbing over two mountains.

These two mountains had been almost destroyed in the battle between him and Patriarch Nangong, so it was not difficult to climb over them.

There is another place, which is a river that crosses the Nudis Mountains.

This Nu River flows from north to south, all the way to the Death Swamp, and has the largest amount of water.

When Lu Hao went south last time, he deliberately diverted the flow of this river to the east and dredged most of the water in the Death Swamp.

However, in order to see the effect, it is estimated that the construction of the road through the Death Swamp will not start until the dry season this winter.

The current of the Nu River is very large, and there is only one section of the shoal, so Lu Hao prepared to lead his army to wade through the shoal.

The horses of the soldiers are definitely fine, but the water in the baskets containing the guns and ammunition may be too strong and the horses will be washed away.

Although guns and ammunition are packaged and waterproof, if an accident occurs, it is not cost-effective.

After the two armies merged into one, after two hours of rest, Lu Hao took them back on the road.

In the first stage, they went south along the river valley, rested for two hours when they reached the turning point in the middle, and then continued north to reach the two mountains blocking the middle.

Fortunately, the mountain collapsed in the previous battle, and now it is only a gentle slope of about 40 degrees.

However, the marching speed on this section of the road slowed down a lot, especially the horses loaded with guns and ammunition. They walked very slowly uphill and then downhill.

It took more than two hours for the army to pass here, and then went all the way down to the largest Nu River.

As its name suggests, the Nujiang River is an angry river, rolling in with turbulent waves.

If you want to cross the scalding water from here, the war horses won't have much difficulty. It's just that the horses transporting supplies need to be a little more careful.

After all, this place had been screened by Lu Hao repeatedly, and the river bed at the bottom of the river was also very solid. Otherwise, the horses' hoofs would have sunk in, which would have been troublesome.

"Two generals, take your people across the river first. After you cross, rest on the spot, eat something, drink some water, and wait for the next order."

Lu Hao ordered loudly.After giving the order, all the soldiers rode across the river on horseback. The scene was very spectacular.

After all the war horses had passed, the horses transporting supplies began to cross the river.

Lu Hao was seen standing by the river. With a wave of his hand, the entire river seemed to have stopped. An invisible force built an air wall, blocking the water upstream.

The water upstream slowly began to rise, and at the same time, horses carrying supplies accelerated across the river.

Without the upstream water flow, the river water here dropped suddenly, and the horses transporting supplies became faster.

All the soldiers on the opposite side stared dumbly at the rising river, and they were all completely stunned.

Is this what human beings can do?

Is the emperor so powerful?

Today they finally saw what it means to be a real strong person?
In just one minute, one hundred horses had passed through the Nu River.

At this time, the water level upstream continued to rise and was about several meters high.

With a wave of Lu Hao's hand, the wall of air collapsed instantly, and the angry river roared in.

Lu Hao saw that the river was approaching, so he picked up Sun Shiya, jumped into the air, and flew towards the other side of the river.

"The Emperor is mighty! The Emperor is mighty..."

All the soldiers shouted in unison, which echoed throughout the valley.

After resting for two hours, Lu Hao led the army to set off again, heading south along the groves along the Nu River, and then turned back to the north through another stream.

After that, it was a smooth ride until we reached the final exit of the canyon.

As long as you go out from here, you will reach the famous Chimir Prairie. If you start from here and rush for four or five hours, you can reach the Silver Moon Beach of the Wolan River.

Baili Tiance and Huyan Muhua, the two tribal leaders leading an army of 30, are now sitting on Silver Moon Beach, waiting for good news.

In their view, as long as the Central Army of the Chinese Empire cannot break through the three passes and cannot enter the prairie at all, what is there to worry about?

Even if the Chinese Empire breaks through the ambush, it will definitely lose its troops and generals, and the task given to them by Baili Tiance is to fight if they can, and retreat if they can't.

To be honest, in Lu Hao's opinion, the fact that they divided their forces into three locations was their biggest failure. However, his goal was even greater, and he wanted to finish the battle in one fell swoop.

In other words, one battle will determine the outcome!

It was not until after eight o'clock in the evening that the army finally stopped at the mouth of the pass.

"Inform the soldiers to rest and sleep on the spot immediately. We will set off four hours later, which is midnight, and strive to launch the attack before dawn."

Lu Hao whispered the order.

After all, as long as you leave this gorge, even if you enter the territory of the five major northern tribal alliances, it is best to be cautious.

The whole canyon was quiet, and all the soldiers were eating and drinking quickly, and then sleeping in their clothes, trying to regain their energy as soon as possible.

Although the nights here are a bit chilly, it is already August, so for the soldiers, it is not cold at all.

Besides, with so many people sleeping together, the entire valley seemed to be getting a lot warmer.

To be precise, after running for a day and a night, the soldiers were really tired.
