Chapter 436
After the Tubo Kingdom is captured, the demand for food will be taken to a higher level.
Zhao Rui sighed helplessly, and his whole body seemed a little irritable. Dai Qisi and Ziyun both saw Zhao Rui's emotions and did not dare to say anything more. Besides, they knew nothing about the issues related to the Ministry of Agriculture in the memorial.
Well, just then, Lin Manzi hurried into the lobby.
"Your Highness, the Duke of Yan ordered the last general to come and send a message. Tubo gathered more than one million troops to gather in Shangyuan City! It seemed that he wanted to fight a decisive battle with us. Duke of Yan had personally led a hundred thousand troops to Tuyuan City to fight him."
Zhao Rui slowly looked up, and his emotions were forcibly suppressed.
When Lesheng school Lin Manzi came here in person, it 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 is more than 100 miles away from the capital of Tubo, and there is a large vast plain nearby.
In such a large place, even if it can accommodate three million people fighting here, there will be no problem.
In this way, the Tubo Kingdom did not intend to stalemate with them and wanted to fight a large-scale decisive battle directly.
This decision is undoubtedly clever. It is the home court of the Tubo country, and fighting here has a natural advantage for them.
Moreover, the previous division of troops had already cost them a heavy price, and they could only concentrate all their advantages to fight a decisive battle and annihilate all the Shang army in Tubo.
On the other hand, a considerable number of soldiers on Zhao Rui's side were serfs and slaves who had just been recruited. They had never been to the battlefield in their entire lives, let alone face such a decisive battle.
Although many soldiers from the Tupola Kingdom surrendered, the loyalty of these people still needs to be investigated.
The second is the army arranged from Gaochang and Dashang. Although they were all the elite troops left after careful selection, they still had some altitude sickness when they first stepped onto the plateau. They had to adapt to the environment here for quite some time before they could participate in the battle.
With so many elements accumulated, Zhao Rui has an absolute disadvantage no matter how you look at it.
Moreover, the opponent's chief general can come up with such a way, which is enough to prove that he has extremely outstanding military capabilities.
Zhao Rui looked at the map, thought for a while, then turned around and looked at the people in front of him very solemnly.
"The order is sent to all the merchants in Tubo, all the soldiers who were in Tubo will go to Tuyuan City and the Tubo Kingdom to fight to the decisive battle."
As soon as these words came out, the people present widened their eyes. They had thought about the decisive battle, but there were too many problems involved. If they were rashly fighting, they might not be able to win.
"Your Highness, are you thinking about it? The roads on both sides have not been fully built, and our support and materials cannot be transported in time. Besides, Tu Yuan is too far away from here, so long-range combat is deeply penetrated into the enemy's land, which is not conducive to us!"
