Chapter 435 Regret? Humph, it’s too late…

Inside the military camp.

Emperor Song Zhenque of Dali, his calm face in the past has gradually faded away.

He stared at the sand table on the battlefield carefully, his face full of seriousness.

After a day and night of testing on the battlefield, they finally understood some of the strength of Nanjing's army.

He and Xue Jingkang are both commanders, so naturally they have their own plans.

It is impossible to just go all-in and use all your strength to fight against the elite.

No matter how conceited and high-profile Xue Jingkang was at the time, he even personally showed off the power of a punch.

But it's still a pretense.

They also wanted to see if there was any hidden support in Dali.

Therefore, when the two armies first met, they did not use their full strength.

But it was obvious that the Dali army was at a disadvantage.

But this was within Song Zhenque's expectation.

After all, from all aspects, the Dali Dynasty was no match for Nanjing.

Looking at the sand table, Song Zhenque said slowly: "What do you think of yesterday's battle?"

At this time, the place below was already occupied by military ministers.

Many of them came from Beijing.

An old man stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the strength of Nanjing's army cannot be underestimated. From this day's exchange of fire, we can see that the level of the other party's vanguard soldiers is still better than ours. The old minister feels that if the war breaks out next time, we should adjust

Defensive formation."

After this person finished speaking, another person stood up behind him and said: "Master Zhang is right. The monks in Guan Nanjing's army include martial arts practitioners and Taoist Qi practitioners. There is also a team of sword cultivators. This may be

They are their real main force, but judging from the fact that thousands of sword cultivators from the Helan Sword Sect were wiped out by the county magistrate of Fengjiang City, their sword cultivator cavalry does not seem to be as terrifying as imagined."

"What nonsense!"

Just as the two of them finished speaking, Xiao Nanhe's face turned gloomy and he couldn't help it.

He frowned, stepped forward with some displeasure, and said: "You scholars who only spend time in the court every day know nothing. Helan Sword Sect was destroyed by Shen Mu, so you think this sword cultivator army is weak? Where do you get the confidence from?

?In yesterday’s battle, even if the other party did not send this army, we have already lost our armor. If they really send out, who of you can resist? Furthermore, the disciples of Helan Sword Sect died in Fengjiang, and

If you didn't do it, why do you think that if others can do it, you can do it too?

Your Majesty, you must not listen to what they say and take it lightly!"

When the war began, Xiao Nanhe returned to his former cold self.

In the face of war, he would not give any face to any minister.

Song Zhenque's expression did not change.

As an emperor, he was used to this kind of quarrels.

After a long time.

He looked up at the crowd and spoke again: "The strength of our Dali army is already so strong that we can no longer improvise. The Nanjing Dynasty belongs to a single dynasty and a large state, and its resources are naturally stronger than ours. Therefore, it is understandable that the monks are stronger than us.

, but they are fighting across state lines after all. If we can fight this war for a long time, there may be some turning points, what do you think?"

After Song Zhenque finished speaking, everyone below was silent.

Not long after, Gu Shouzhi stepped forward: "Your Majesty is right, if they fight a protracted war, they will fight across states, and transporting supplies will naturally be a problem, but the only two dynasties they are afraid of are the Daqing and Sui dynasties.

They have been persuaded to surrender, so they are likely to help the Nanjing Dynasty in turn. Once they inject resources into Nanjing, it will be difficult for us, so we also want to fight a protracted war with Nanjing. First of all, our own supplies

To keep up, we must also cut off the material connections between the Daqing Dynasty and the Sui Dynasty and the Nanjing army."

Song Zhenque nodded after hearing this.

He pointed at the sand table and then said: "This is not difficult. We only need to set up strongholds to intercept them on the only way they are transported. But we are far away from our own resources and materials. How can we keep up? It is so huge.

The scale of the war and the amount of elixirs and talismans we need are already immeasurable.

Yesterday's battle had already caused a lot of losses. The soldiers needed enough elixirs to support their defensive formations. The attack formations and magic weapons of the Nanjing army were obviously better than ours. If they want to maintain it for a long time, they must

There must be enough elixirs and vitality to replenish and keep up.

Unless we can use higher-level attack formations, we can only rely on this method to maintain it.

Even if all the counties and sects of Dali mobilized here, it would be a drop in the bucket. The tens of thousands of monks needed to supply the elixirs. After a war, each person would need dozens or even hundreds of elixirs.

.”

After all, Song Zhenque was the emperor of a country.

There are some things that nature sees more clearly than anyone else.

Many people care about combat power, but in fact, the final essence of war is to burn resources and money.

Indifferent, in fact everyone understands this truth.

It's just that under the current circumstances, it's really inappropriate to say such particularly negative words.

Song Zhenque could only bring it up himself.

At this moment, the camp fell into silence again.

Everyone is at a loss.

Gu Shouzhi suddenly spoke again: "Your Majesty, Fengjiang City sent some food this morning. I ordered people to cook it in the kitchen. It's already dinner time. Why don't we take a bite first and then we can continue to discuss it."

Song Zhenque was stunned when he heard this.

Sent from Fengjiang City?

Condolence supplies?

This really surprised him.

In fact, to be honest, although there was no clear communication between him and Chen Mu.

But that layer of window paper is actually gone long ago.

Although there is no conflict, there is definitely no way to share the same hatred.

At the beginning, you were separated from others.

Completely regarded as an abandoned child.

No one else would be able to swallow this breath.

But now they have stood up through hard work and are even getting stronger.

It really leaves people with mixed feelings.

No one spoke in the camp.

Not long after, portions of rice were delivered.

Just when everyone sees the rice.

All the eyes popped out!

Even Song Zhenque, who looked calm, had his mouth wide open at this moment, a little in disbelief.

Thick pure white mist rose above the bowl of rice.

Every grain of rice seems to be turning with a white halo.

"This, this is vitality rice!?"

"Impossible, how could it be so strong?"

"Oh my God, if the soldiers take a bite of this, their vitality will be restored a hundred times compared to the pill!"

"this!"

Someone shouted: "This! This is comparable to a high-end elixir! Which super sect did you buy it from?"

"Is it a farmer?"

"The new generation of farmers?"

At this time everyone began to speculate.

Gu Shouzhi stepped forward with a smile: "I just said that this is from Fengjiang City."

"What?"

"this……"

Suddenly someone thought of something.

Everyone looked at Xiao Nanhe.

During the war, Xiao Nanhe's own army was equipped with some vitality rice that was coveted by other branches of the army.

It is precisely because of this that their army suffered minimal casualties in yesterday's battle.

Xiao Nanhe curled his lips and then shook his head: "Look what I am doing? Open your eyes and take a look. Although my vitality rice was also bought by Fengjiang, it is different from this batch! Mine is an increase of six or seven times. This is

A bowl of vitality rice is at least thirty times richer than ordinary rice! It’s almost time to catch up with the high-level vitality elixir! It’s different!”

"!!!"

"!!!"

"???"

Everyone was quiet.

How much mystery does Fengjiang City still have?

If I had known this was the case, I shouldn't have let him go in the first place...
