Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 624
Ximen Hongri took pains to persuade everyone not to confront the imperial army head-on, which was originally a good intention.

However, in the eyes of everyone, he is a coward, a complete coward.

"Chief Ximen, don't let others' ambitions destroy your own prestige. The Third Army of the Empire's Central Army only has 1 people at full strength. We have more than 30 people. Do we have to run for our lives?"

One of the tribal leaders asked loudly.

"It's not about escaping, but about strategic shift, using the vast prairie as strategic depth to contain the enemy."

Ximen Hongri explained awkwardly.

"What are you trying to do to contain the enemy? You coward, we are fleeing without a fight, why not surrender?"

The other leader also said coldly.

"What do you mean by fleeing without a fight? You are all so powerful, how powerful is the Tiance Army of the Baili Alliance Leader? Haven't you been completely wiped out by the enemy?"

Ximen Hongri suddenly became angry and roared.

"What is the Grand Leader of Baili? Now Leader Sikong is the Grand Leader. We are not as powerful as the Tiance Army, but it was a sneak attack by the enemy. Do you know what the sneak attack means? Will we give the enemy a chance to sneak attack now? Real Sword Really If we fight them with guns, who are we, the warriors of the prairie, afraid of?"

The other leader also jumped up.

However, the leaders who spoke here were basically direct descendants of Sikong Changfeng, so they stood up to suppress the leader of Ximen.

"Okay! Stop arguing! The enemy hasn't come over yet, so we're just going to fight inside each other. How can we defeat the enemy!"

Seeing that things were getting heated, Sikong Changfeng quickly stepped forward to smooth things over.

"Grand Leader, this matter must come to a conclusion. What do you think we should do now?"

Tuoba Zhiheng asked in a deep voice.

"Is the enemy strong or not? It's all hearsay now, and we haven't actually fought against each other. I think we should get a feel for it first and see if the imperial army they say is that powerful? Then we can make plans?"

Sikong Changfeng is not stupid, he crosses the river by feeling the stones.

"Alliance leader, are you willing to lead an army to intercept the Third Army of the Chinese Empire to see how effective they are in combat?"

Sikong Lie took the initiative to ask for help.

"what do y'all think?"

Sikong Changfeng looked at Tuoba Zhiheng and Ximen Hongri and asked.

"I think we can test it out and then make a plan."

Tuoba Zhiheng nodded slightly.

"Okay, then send someone to try. If it doesn't work, we will retreat to the west."

Ximen Hongri expressed his attitude.

He is a serious supporter of Baili Tiance and fully implements his guerrilla tactics and strategic containment strategies.

Tuoba Zhiheng is also a scheming person and will not risk his tribe soldiers easily.

"Sikong Lie, how many troops do you think is enough?"

Sikong Changfeng turned to look at Sikong Lie and asked.

"Thirty thousand troops, attack the Third Army of the Chinese Empire at night, let them also taste death."

Sikong Lie responded loudly.

"Very good, then I will give you an army of thirty thousand."

Sikong Changfeng was quite happy.

"It is simply a fool's dream that a 30-strong army wants to defeat the Third Army of the Chinese Empire. Don't you know that a 1-strong army was wiped out by [-] people?"

Ximen Hongri sneered.

"Chief Ximen, how many people do you think is appropriate to send?"

Sikong Changfeng asked loudly.

"Leader, I would like to ask at least 10 people for a sneak attack to have any hope of success." Ximen Hongri responded in a deep voice.

"In this case, Chief Ximen and Chief Tuoba, you can send another 3 troops, and I will add another [-] to form an army of [-]. What do you think?"

Sikong Changfeng asked loudly.

"So good!"

Ximen Hongri and Tuoba Zhiheng looked at each other and agreed readily.

However, it can be seen that they are just there to provide a foil, and they can never really contribute.

In this way, the three leaders sent out their fierce generals to form an army of [-], aiming to test the combat effectiveness of the Empire's Third Army.

The shields and crossbows they were equipped with, as well as the oldest scimitars and spears, were already very good in the cold weapon era.

However, the current Third Army of the Empire has strong troops, sufficient ammunition, and is equipped with more lethal grenades and kerosene bombs.

In comparison, dispatching not only 10 people, but also all 30 people would be a recipe for death.

None of this is important. What is important is that Lu Hao will be dispatched in time to command the third army.

The plan to send troops had just been reached here, and the news soon spread to Silver Moon Beach.

It shows that the traitors bought by Wu Qingyu played a vital role, and the additional funds were well worth the money.

The prairie tribe alliance army headed by Sikong Lie was all cavalry, presumably to increase mobility and increase the success rate of sneak attacks.

However, they never thought about how they would escape if they lost their horses.
The three leaders originally had [-] cavalry each, but now they have sent out more than half of their cavalry. Ximen Hongri and Tuoba Zhiheng each have [-] cavalry left, while Sikong Changfeng only has [-] left.

However, Sikong Changfeng also told Sikong Lie privately that if he could not win the battle, he would immediately lead the army to retreat and not fight.

Sikong Lie, a fierce general, naturally felt that by adopting a night attack, even if he could not completely annihilate the third army, he could at least make them flee. He did not even think about escaping.

Since Lu Hao learned that the enemy was planning to launch a sneak attack, he immediately set out to chase the third army. His flying speed was very fast and he soon caught up with Dong Xiaojun.

At this time, it was already the third day of Gongsun Meng's departure and the second day of the third army's departure. Therefore, the army quickly caught up with Gongsun Meng's peace delegation.

"My little lady pays homage to the Emperor!"

Gongsun Meng quickly bowed and saluted, and the rest of the mission members also saluted.

"Clan Chief Gongsun, you are now the special envoy of the empire. From now on, you should not keep calling me a little girl. You should call yourself a minor minister. Do you understand?"

Lu Hao said with a smile.

"Wei Chen understands!"

Gongsun Meng quickly changed his title.

"Well, that's right. Things have changed since I came here this time. If you go to Shadow Moon Beach again, your lives will probably be in danger."

Lu Hao nodded slightly and said with a smile.

"Life is in danger? Do they still dare to kill me?"

Gongsun Meng said in confusion.

"To tell you the truth, now that Sikong Changfeng has become the leader of the Grassland Alliance, he has threatened to cut you into pieces if you go for peace talks. I am worried about your safety, so I am chasing you."

Lu Hao explained with a smile.

"Wei Chen, thank you for your kindness!"

Gongsun Meng was deeply moved.

She was just a chess piece, but the emperor personally made a trip for her safety. How could she not be moved?
"In addition, after they discussed it, they sent a hundred thousand troops led by General Sikong Lie to prepare for a surprise attack on General Dong's Third Army. This battle is inevitable."

Lu Hao didn't hide anything and spoke out boldly.

"Then what should we do?"

Gongsun Meng is now in a dilemma.
