Chapter 436

After the Tubo Kingdom is conquered, the demand for food will reach a higher level.

Zhao Rui sighed helplessly and looked a little irritable. Dai Qisi and Ziyun both saw Zhao Rui's mood and did not dare to say a word. Moreover, they knew nothing about the issues related to the Ministry of Agriculture in the memorial.

Okay, just at this moment, Lin Manzi entered the lobby in a hurry.

"Your Highness, the Duke of Yan has ordered the last general to come and deliver a message. Tubo has gathered more than one million troops in Shangyuan City! It looks like they want to fight a decisive battle with us. Duke Yan has personally led an army of 100,000 people.

Go to Tuyuan City to confront him."

Zhao Rui slowly raised his head, his emotions suppressed by force.

Le Sheng sent Lin Manzi to come here in person, which proves that something urgent must have happened.

He immediately walked to the map next to him and took a look at the location of Shangyuan City. This place was more than a hundred miles away from the capital of Tibet, and there was a large and vast plain nearby.

Such a big place can accommodate three million people to fight here without any problem.

From this point of view, Tubo no longer intends to engage in a stalemate with them, and wants to directly engage in a large-scale decisive battle.

This decision is undoubtedly a wise one. This is the home ground of the Tubo Kingdom, and they have a natural advantage in fighting a decisive battle here.

Moreover, the previous division of troops and attack had already cost them a heavy price, so they could only concentrate all their advantages to fight a decisive battle and annihilate all the merchant armies in Tubo territory.

On Zhao Rui's side, a considerable number of the soldiers were newly recruited serfs and slaves. They had never been on the battlefield in their lives, let alone faced such a decisive battle.

Although many soldiers from the Tubo Kingdom surrendered, the loyalty of these people remains to be examined.

Secondly, there are the troops deployed from Gaochang and Dashang. Although they are all elites left after careful selection, they still have some altitude sickness when they set foot on the plateau for the first time, and it will take quite a while.

You have to adapt to the environment here to participate in the battle.

With so many elements accumulated, it seems that Zhao Rui is at an absolute disadvantage. No.

And the fact that the opponent's general can come up with such a method is enough to prove that he has extremely good military capabilities.

Zhao Rui looked at the map, thought for a moment, then turned around and looked at the people in front of him solemnly.

"Instructions are sent that all merchant armies in Tubo territory should go to Tuyuan City for a decisive battle with the Tubo Kingdom."

As soon as these words came out, several people present widened their eyes. It was not that they had not thought about a decisive battle, but there were too many problems involved. If they had a decisive battle rashly, they might not be able to win.

"Your Highness, are you thinking about it? The roads on both sides have not been completely opened yet, so our backup and supplies cannot be transported up in time. Moreover, Tuyuan is too far away from here. Such a long-range operation will go deep into the enemy's homeland, which is not good for us!

"

Dai Qisi's face was full of worry. She had suffered a loss once, and she was inevitably a little confused. Moreover, this time it was a decisive battle. If all the merchant armies were trapped in Tuyuan City, not only would the vitality of the merchants be severely damaged, but also the Tubo Kingdom
