The green grass was stained with a layer of blood, and the faint smell of blood filled the air.

The smell of blood seemed to awaken the barbaric and violent in the bones. They temporarily forgot the dead soldiers in front of them, and only had the fantasy of slaughtering the people of Dayu in their minds.

"Flag head, have we been holding it back for this period of time?" asked a ten thousand men.

Gurtai said: "Of course we have to endure it. Now Shanhaiguan is in the hands of the Dayu team. Only when there is chaos in the Dayu Kingdom, we can destroy the Dayu Kingdom once and for all while King Liang borrows troops. At that time, our dead soldiers will compensate for the lives of the Dayu Kingdom. On that day, I must eat the King of Qi alive."

Speaking of this, Gurtai's eyes were full of tyranny.

He looked at the direction of Shanhaiguan with hatred, and Gurtayle's horse headed towards the tribe. He thought that the cavalry of Shanhaiguan would attack their tribe again.

But judging from the current situation, this army seems to be just trying to kill this scout team.

Since Bei Shan was defeated in the Battle of Jizhou, the Huyantuo tribe has been reused again, and the Dataijiwu Shu bone has been reused more and more. It is obvious that Tian Khan's position must be his.

Because of this, he not only cleared the charge of the Battle of Cangzhou, but Wu Shugu also sent 50,000 elite cavalry to join him in order to let him guard the grassland outside Shanhaiguan and prevent the King of Qi's army from going deep into the grassland, posing a threat to the golden tent.

The other barbarian generals looked in the direction of Gurtai's departure, sighed deeply, and asked the other soldiers to bring the scout's bodies back. The barbarian cavalry gradually moved away like a torrent.

Outside the ambush, the Youzhou scouts were holding a telescope to observe the movements of the barbarians.

In the past, after fighting with the barbarians, the barbarian cavalry would always go to Shanhaiguan to scold them for a while, but today these barbarian cavalry were a bit abnormal.

Seeing this, the scouts turned around and headed towards Shanhaiguan, and they wanted to tell Lei Ming the news.

Shanhaiguan, Governor's Office.

Lei Ming was writing a war report. After a while, a scout came to report and told Lei Ming about the unusual actions of the barbarians.

"This is strange. When did the barbarians change their temperament?" Lei Ming frowned, and then he also wrote the message into the war report and sent it to Qingzhou with a quick horse.

Three days later, the battle report from Youzhou successfully arrived in Qingzhou. Niu Ben, who received the news, immediately sent the battle report to the Prince Qi Mansion.

At the same time, he and Pang Yukun went to the royal palace to discuss the matter again.

"Your Highness, Lei Ming killed three hundred barbarian scouts outside the pass this time. But what is different from the past is that the barbarians did not go to the pass to provoke like before the pass as they used to." Niu Ben said.

Xiao Ming has been busy with Qingzhou's government affairs these days. After discussing this plan, the three of them thought that the barbarians would inevitably go out of revenge and clamor to lure the Guanning Iron Cavalry to fight, but they obviously made the mistake of prediction.

"This is indeed very strange. Did the barbarians learn to be turtles with their heads?" Xiao Ming said in confusion. Although the barbarians were driven outside the pass by him, the barbarians were more arrogant outside the pass than inside the pass. They often sent people to detain the soldiers on the frontier. They used this kind of aggressive method since Shanhaiguan was lost to this day.

Every time Lei Ming comes out of the pass to fight Qiu Feng, the barbarians will only become more annoyed, and sometimes they will even act as an attack on Shanhaiguan. They will have fun with Lei Ming.

"The barbarians are brutal and violent by nature, but they are also very cunning. Perhaps they just set up a trap to let the Guanning Iron Cavalry go deeper to eliminate the Guanning Iron Cavalry." Pang Yukun said.

Niu Ben said, "In the understanding of the barbarians, they must be planning some conspiracy. The reason why barbarians have been so arrogant and reckless in recent years is that they think they can easily annex the Dayu Kingdom. Now they suffer losses in our hands many times. The barbarians will probably use conspiracies and tricks like before. At that time, Shanhaiguan was captured by the barbarians from the inside."

Xiao Ming nodded after hearing this, "Since that's the case, we need to be more prepared. Now that my father is seriously ill, the court may fall into chaos at any time. What I fear most is that the barbarians take the opportunity to enter."

Niu Ben continued: "Your Highness, since this is the case, we must accelerate the advancement of the fortress strategy. Now we must focus on equipping the Youzhou Army and let the Youzhou Army form combat power."

Pang Yukun echoed and said, "Yes, Your Highness, the emperor advises Your Highness to temporarily suspend the development of overseas development. Now the maritime route is already in our hands. You only need Yue Yun to maintain the route. You cannot fight on the two fronts at this time, otherwise we are afraid that we will not be able to deal with it at all. Although the ancient saying is that Yun Kingdom is big, it will perish if you are fighting. Once this battle begins, people's livelihood will decline. Your Highness's accumulation over the past three years may be ruined. Therefore, Your Highness must not act voluntarily. Now, you should fight with each other from a distance and attack nearby, and take a strategy of joining the Dutch. Your Highness handles this extremely wonderful thing. If you can alleviate the war, you must ease the war. As long as you think, you will provide time for the development of Qingzhou."

Xiao Ming deeply agreed. Now that he is the lord of the country, he naturally finds this more and more. He dare not say that I can beat a hundred of them one by one, because he is trying to die.

Even in modern times, the United States relies on many allies instead of fighting alone.

After understanding this, Xiao Ming said: "Pang Changshi's statement is the same as Zhan Xingchang's. I have a sense of my heart. From now on, I should take the initiative to join forces and unite. Now we should act according to the plan and report this battle to the court. If the father can spend one more day, we will have one more time to prepare."

The two looked at each other after hearing this and nodded at the same time.

In front of Niu Ben and Pang Yukun, Xiao Ming personally wrote a memorial, in which Xiao Ming deliberately exaggerated the battle between the barbarians outside Shanhaiguan and the Iron Cavalry of Guanning. At the same time, he asked Empress Zhao and the Prince to take good care of Xiao Wenxuan in words.

After preparing this memorial, Xiao Ming handed it over to Pang Yukun and asked the police to send it to Chang'an.

Then the three of them discussed the current situation and then went back.

After seeing off Pang Yukun and Niu Ben, Xiao Ming looked to the northwest. It was King Yong's territory. Now what he was most worried about was coal and iron, and both of these were very sufficient in King Yong's fiefdom.

If the Great Yu Kingdom really falls into civil unrest, the first thing he does is to ensure the source of these two materials, otherwise this will seriously affect the development of Qingzhou. As for saltpeter, he is not too worried about saltpeter now. According to Claire, although they went to war with Britain, the trade still did not stop and they could obtain high-quality saltpeter from India.

As for sulfur, due to the shortage of resources in Japan, Japan may have to sell these materials to him in exchange for other resources.
