"General Xu Chu, our 200,000-strong army consumes a huge amount of food and grass every day, but I took a look and it seems that our food and grass are not enough."
The march was too boring because they only had two things to do every day.
The first is to move forward, and the second is to rest. Apart from that, there is nothing else to do.
When Gou Yu had nothing to do, he went to check on the food and grass reserves of the two hundred thousand troops.
However, he found that the food and grass reserves were not large. Xun Yu checked and found that the army only carried two months of food and grass reserves.
But according to Xun Yu's calculations, it would take a month at the fastest to get there and back, which means it would take another month.
It only lasts for two months. If any other problems arise in the middle and the enemy confronts them for a certain period of time, wouldn't they run out of food?
"Don't worry, Mr. Xun Yu. It has been said in military books since ancient times that before the troops and horses move, food and fodder will go first. Although we set off quite quickly, there was already a large amount of food and fodder ahead of us two days before we set off."
"Don't worry at all. We have some food and grass in front, and some people are escorting the food and grass. When we get close to the destination, these people will join our troops, and we will have enough food and grass by then."
"It's enough to ensure that the army can go and come back. And if the monsoon at sea is not so strong when they come back, we might choose to come back from the sea. In this case, we can also save a lot of food and grass for the court."
When Xu Chu heard Xun Yu ask this question, he knew what Xun Yu was worried about, so he told Xun Yu everything he knew.
Although Xun Yu said he had fought in the war, he didn't know much about the current situation of food and grass.
After all, these things are not handled by him, they are all handled by Xu Chu.
So naturally he was not very clear about these things, and after Xu Chu told Gou Yu about it, Xun Yu also knew about it, so he felt relieved.
"Okay, if that's the case, then I can rest assured. I believe there will be no problems with the general fighting here. If there are any problems, please notify me here in time."
"I will do my best to help the general tide over the difficulties together."
After hearing Xu Chu's explanation, Xun Yu finally felt relieved. Originally, he was worried that the army might not have enough food and grass.
But after hearing Xu Chu's explanation, Xun Yu felt relieved. After all, if the situation was really like what Xu Chu said.
There really won't be any food crisis, and with their strength, no one will be able to make a sneak attack.
And as long as they can keep their food and fodder, the combat effectiveness of this 200,000-strong army can be at its peak at any time.
In this way, you won't have to worry about any unexpected situations, even if any unexpected situations occur.
They also paid attention to having time to react. As long as they could react, they could directly eliminate the enemy.
"Master Xun Yu, you have been tired for such a long time. You should go back to the carriage and rest more. After all, you are a scholar, and you are not like the rest of us who are struggling on this battlefield.
Get used to it."
"So we can still accept some hard work along the way. As your body is so weak, it's better not to work too hard and rest appropriately. If anything happens, I will notify you as soon as possible."
I saw that Xun Yu not only did not rest on the carriage, but went around to check the situation.
This really made Xu Chu admire him very much. After all, he originally thought that Xun Yu came here just to help him fight the war.
But he didn't expect Xun or to try his best to cover everything, which really made Xu Chu very relieved.
After all, there are not many such strategists. Xu Chu is still very happy to have such strategists.
Soon this month passed slowly, and the army led by Xu Chu, Xun Yu, and Dian Wei was about to reach the border pass of the Wei Kingdom.
After passing the previous pass, it means that they have left the Wei Kingdom. The 200,000 of them are equivalent to fighting alone, and there will be no more reinforcements.
"Lord Xun Yu, we are finally almost there. You see, the last pass of the Wei Kingdom is ahead. Once we get there, we will know that we are about to leave the Wei Kingdom."
We were about to reach the border of Wei's territory, and Xu Chu also talked to Xun Yu.
After all, Xun Yu may not be too familiar with this geographical information and the like, but Wang Yu is very familiar with this geographical information and the like.
Because he was used to fighting on the battlefield, he was more interested in these things.
However, he thought wrongly. Xun Yu actually knew the territorial situation of the Wei Kingdom and Goguryeo by heart.
He is very clear about the last pass nearby, as well as the mountains and terrain outside.
"Yes, once they pass the previous pass, it will be the territory of Goguryeo. Once there, we will have to handle everything ourselves."
"If any problem is discovered, it will be too late for us to regret it. We don't know what is happening to the defenders in the city at this moment."
After Xun Yu finished speaking, he looked at the last hurdle in front of him and sighed.
He was near the border in Nanyang before, and now he came to the northern border, but the environment of the two borders was different.
There is still a pass on this border, and this pass is the last pass between the Great Wei Kingdom and Goguryeo.
After the previous problems occurred on Goguryeo's side, it was Wang Yu, the guard at the last pass, who passed the news to Zhao Feng.
After Zhao Feng received the news, he immediately sent three of them to assist the defenders at this pass.
At this moment, after Xun Yu and the other three led the army to the vicinity of the pass, Wang Yu, the defender of the city, had already received the news in advance.
The reinforcements he had been waiting for day and night finally arrived, which made him very excited. After all, he didn't know much about the situation in Goguryeo.
If anything unexpected happens, Goguryeo will gather a large army to attack this pass.
They may not be able to hold on, because he had previously sent several small troops to check the situation.
However, there was no news from all of them, and none of them came back in the end. He also understood that these people who launched the rebellion were extremely hostile to the Wei Dynasty.
That's why he asked for reinforcements. Otherwise, he would normally not run so far and asked Zhao Feng to send more reinforcements to support him.
After all, he also knew how laborious it would be to send troops from within the country, but there was no other way.
