Chapter 1738: Take Down Gansu and Shaanxi! Capture Li Chen A

    

cherous waters of business, had encountered all sorts of dubious characters. She seemed utterly unconcerned by Zhao Tailei's levity and flamboyance, simply replying with calm dignity: "After my father...Chapter 1738: Take Gan and Shaanxi! Capture Li Chen Alive!

"That's good."

Yelü Shenxuan nodded in satisfaction and said, "The Qin army has set a big trap on Wulong Mountain, waiting for us to jump right into it. So we will immediately speed up and break in before they finish setting their defenses, crushing them."

With a punch on the table, Yelü Shenxuan said in a deep voice: "Right now, all our soldiers are tired and their horses are weak. You all know how much pressure there is on the logistics. I can tell you very frankly, before the snow melts, we won't be able to get any more supplies from Langting.

Ye Lu Shen Xuan's words immediately caused the generals to stir.

Before, the largest batch of supplies and grain that Wolf Den had sent over was long overdue. Some people spread rumors that it had been lost, but the vast majority didn't believe it.

In their eyes, beyond the Yueya Pass lay a frozen wasteland where even prairie wolves couldn't survive, let alone anyone foolish enough to attempt robbing the Liao army of its supplies during such harsh times.

It's probably that the escort team couldn't find him, and he froze to death first.

Moreover, the Liaoning army's provisions had never been touched by anyone on the grasslands for centuries.

So although this rumor is spreading widely, not many people actually believe it.

But now, Yelü Shenxuan has indirectly admitted it.

Before the arrival of spring, there will be no material support.

Thinking back to the journey from Yueya Guan, they had barely gathered any food along the way. The Liao army was forced to start reducing the daily rations across the entire army. Even though the soldiers grumbled incessantly, this discontent did not erupt under the banner of their successive victories.

Throughout history, the Liao military's high command has never officially commented on this matter, and its generals have simply pretended not to notice.

Now, Yelü Shenxuan has given his opinion.

It's just that this statement is hard to accept.

“Now the heavy snowfall outside Yueya Pass has completely blocked all roads. People and animals can't pass at all. In this weather, going to the grasslands would be a death sentence for many. That's why Langting won't send us any more supplies. And with the supplies we have now, we can only last for a maximum of six days.”

Yelü Shenxuan's eyes were deep, and he said: "These six days, I will open up the supply to the maximum, so that the soldiers can eat and wear warm clothes, and then in one go, before we run out of ammunition and food, take down Wolong Mountain!"

"With a victory at Mount Wolong, the Qin army is utterly defeated. The entire provinces of Gansu and Shaanxi will fall under our control. Then, we can feast on delicacies in the provincial capitals of Gansu and Shaanxi before waiting for spring to return to Langting as unparalleled heroes!"

"My lords, we have now broken through the Yueya Pass! This formidable pass that has plagued our Liao State for decades is now beneath our feet. We stand on Qin's soil, and its women, silver, all belong to us. Victory in this final battle will bring it all."

Yelü Shenxuan's words successfully ignited the passion of the generals present. One by one, their eyes gleamed with excitement, as if they were already anticipating the day of their triumphant return.

"Well then, from here on out...I leave it to you!"

Yelü Shenxuan roared, "Capture Gansu and Shanxi! Capture Li Chen alive!"

"Capture Gansu and Shaanxi! Capture Li Chen alive!"

"Capture Gansu and Shaanxi! Capture Li Chen alive!"

Seize Gansu and Shaanxi! Capture Li Chen!

"Su Pingbei, I have met the Crown Prince!"

With a dusty and weary look, Su Pingbei stood before Li Chen, his expression filled with excitement.

Li Chen hurried forward, embracing Su Pingbei with a hearty hug. Then, he gripped his shoulders and examined him closely, bursting into laughter: "Good! Although you're a bit less handsome, you're more mature and composed. You didn't disappoint me at all!"
