Chapter 64 That’s an army of 300,000 people

After night fell, Lu Chen stayed in his study and repeatedly checked the map of Daxia, especially the terrain of Beijun.

Although the map was hand-drawn by soldiers, it still has a certain reference value.

Lu Chen was thinking at this time that if he wanted to maximize the effectiveness of the howitzer, the best way would be to lure all the barbarian's 300,000 cavalry into a narrow terrain.

At that time, another "pocket tie" will be done, so that the barbarian cavalry will have no way to escape.

Of course, his current plan is just on paper, and the specific operation is definitely not an ordinary difficulty.

For example, whether the barbarians will be fooled and whether they will follow their thinking all depends on the barbarian generals.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the study.

"Chen'er, can I come in?"

Hearing Chu Yuqin's voice, Lu Chen said absently: "Well, come in."

Chu Yuqin then entered the study room and saw that Lu Chen's eyes had been staring at the map on the desk. In addition, Lu Chen had been shutting himself in the study room after meeting Qin Yushan. Chu Yuqin knew that there must be some major crisis. coming.

Chu Yuqin asked worriedly: "Chen'er, what happened?"

Chu Yuqin was not an outsider, and Lu Chen had no intention of hiding it from her, so he replied: "The Barbarian Royal Court issued a summons order to summon an army of 300,000 people to go south, occupy Beijun, and then establish a country in Beijun, and use Yancheng as their capital.

Hearing this, Chu Yuqin's brain froze.

In this world, large-scale wars cannot be controlled by a single master or a few strong men.

If the 300,000 cavalrymen really go south, the people in Beijun will definitely not be able to defend it. It's no wonder that Lu Chen didn't want to eat or drink tonight and stayed in the study.

Chu Yuqin asked at this time: "Chen'er, is the news accurate?"

Lu Chen nodded, "This is the information that Jin Yiwei sent back from the grassland."

Chu Yuqin fell into silence.

When the Blood Moon Tower sent people to assassinate Lu Chen, she couldn't even protect him, let alone protect the palace among 300,000 cavalry.

Chu Yuqin also understood that this kind of thing was obviously beyond her control.

Lu Chen said at this time: "Aunt Chu, I plan to transfer Zixuan and the others to Anping City, and then I will lead an army of 30,000 to fight the barbarian cavalry in Yancheng."

Anping City is also a city in Beijun, but Anping City is further south.

If Beijun is really lost, Mu Zixuan and the others can leave Beijun and return to the capital as soon as possible.

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Chu Yuqin was stunned for a moment, and then said quickly: "Chen'er, you absolutely must not!"

"That's three hundred thousand cavalry!"

"How can the 30,000 soldiers in Beijun be a match for the barbarian cavalry!"

Although Chu Yuqin had never been on the battlefield, she also knew that the barbarians' 300,000 cavalry were actually 300,000 cavalry.

Normally, when the Daxia Dynasty or other dynasties use troops abroad, they always claim to have hundreds of thousands of troops, or millions of troops.

But these so-called armies of hundreds of thousands and millions of people have a lot of water content. The logistics of the army account for most of it, and there may not even be half of the soldiers who can actually be used in combat.

But the barbarian soldiers are different. Each of their cavalry can fight. If they claim to have 300,000 cavalry, it means that they have an actual 300,000 fighting soldiers.

Chu Yuqin really couldn't imagine that if 300,000 barbarian cavalry troops came to the city, how could Lu Chen defend the 30,000 soldiers from Beijun!

Seeing Chu Yuqin so flustered, Lu Chen showed a confident smile, "Aunt Chu, have you forgotten that I have a destiny?"

Chu Yuqin did not feel relieved because of Lu Chen's words. She continued: "Chen'er, I know that you are destined to be immortal, but with your current strength, you cannot withstand an army of 300,000 people."

"And there must be many masters in the barbarian army, even great masters."

Lu Chen said calmly: "What I mean is that I have a more terrifying weapon in my hands."

this……

Hearing what Lu Chen said, Chu Yuqin suddenly remembered the mysterious weapons Lu Chen used before.

If Lu Chen had a large number of weapons of that type, or if the palace could produce similar weapons, then it would not be impossible to fight 300,000 against 300,000.

Chu Yuqin asked curiously: "Chen'er, can the weapon you mentioned really withstand the charge of the barbarian cavalry?"

Lu Chen looked at the map and did not answer Chu Yuqin's question directly, but asked: "Aunt Chu, do you know what I am most worried about right now?"

Chu Yuqin looked down at the map and said nothing.

Since Lu Chen had already said that he would lead 30,000 soldiers to confront the barbarians' 300,000 cavalry head-on, what Lu Chen was worried about was naturally not the barbarian troops approaching the city.

If Lu Chen wasn't even worried about barbarian troops approaching the city, Chu Yuqin really couldn't think of anything else that Lu Chen should worry about.

Lu Chen continued at this time: "What I'm worried about is that the barbarian cavalry will escape. We can't completely keep the 300,000 barbarian cavalry."

Chu Yuqin: "...???"

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Chu Yuqin suddenly felt that her mind was a little hard to turn around.

Not only do you want to resist the 300,000 barbarian cavalry going south, but you also want to completely defeat these 300,000 cavalry, and you also want them all to stay?

If this was said to anyone, I'm afraid people would think that King Bei was frightened after hearing the news that the barbarians were going south.

That's an army of 300,000 people!

And they are cavalry. Let’s not say whether they can defeat these 300,000 cavalry. Trying to keep 300,000 cavalry is tantamount to wishful thinking.

At this time, Chu Yuqin sighed and said: "Chen'er, I'm just a woman, and I don't know much about war. I just hope that you can be safe."

At this time, Lu Chen looked up at Chu Yuqin, whose eyebrows were slightly furrowed and her face was full of anxiety. He smiled and said: "Aunt Chu, don't worry, if we really lose to the barbarians, I will also find a way to escape. "

"It is not too difficult for me to escape from the barbarian siege."

Chu Yuqin said: "Then when do you plan to send Zixuan and the others to Anping City?"

Lu Chen said: "The sooner the better, I need to prepare in advance."

At this time, Lu Chen looked into Chu Yuqin's eyes and continued: "Aunt Chu, I hope you can leave with Zixuan and the others and help me protect them."

Chu Yuqin did not refuse Lu Chen's request this time because she knew that she would not be able to play a big role in such a large-scale war.

"Okay, if Beijun is really lost, I will take Zixuan and the others back to the capital. You can just rest assured and fight the barbarians in Yancheng."

Seeing that Chu Yuqin agreed, Lu Chen lost another worry.

At this time, the maid's voice sounded at the door.

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent message from the Imperial Guard."

Lu Chen said: "Come in."

Then the maid entered the study and handed the letter in her hand to Lu Chen. Lu Chen opened it, glanced at it, and said to himself: "It seems that there is still a little trouble that needs to be solved before fighting against the barbarian army heading south."
