    "Damn it, there are ditches and horse traps everywhere in the camp of Hanhai Bastards, our brothers can't get in!"

    Outside the White Horse Pass, in the central tent of the Twelfth Cavalry Regiment of the Far Eastern Empire, Xie Yuan, the commander of the Fifty-Second Banner, walked in cursing.

    "Did you suffer again?"

    Yuan Jie, the head of the regiment, saw Xie Yuan, the head of the 52nd Banner, looking unhappy, so he also asked.

    "We lost more than a hundred brothers, but they didn't end up well, and we shot and killed a lot of them."

    Xie Yuan grabbed the teacup on the table and drank it in one gulp, then wiped the water stains from the corner of his mouth and said.

    "It's really not the way to fight like this. Our cavalry alone can't break their tortoise shells."

    Yuan Jie, the head of the legion, also knew that cavalry were powerful in field battles, and it was indeed not good for cavalry to attack fortified positions.

    In particular, the camp of the Hanhai Fire Phoenix Legion was built solidly, and they also set up many trenches in the camp to deal with cavalry, rejecting horses, deer firewood, etc.

    Although the cavalry of the Qinghe Army were able to rush in, it was not an easy task to wipe them out in one fell swoop.

    "It's better to let the brothers of the Fifth Legion bring up the catapult and smash their tortoise shells!"

    "I heard that there are many women in the Fire Phoenix Legion. Maybe I can snatch a wife back." Xie Yuan laughed.

    Yuan Jie laughed and said: "What a beautiful dream in broad daylight, don't let your wife lose her life if she doesn't catch it."

    "Now that the Fifth Army has suffered heavy losses, they cannot be dispatched in a short period of time. We have to wait for the Fourth Army to arrive before launching a general offensive."

    It can be said that Wang Cheng's Fifth Field Army Corps has fought fiercely with the Hanhai Army at Baima Pass for so long, and it can be said that it has suffered huge losses.

    Now all the flag regiments are exhausted, they urgently need to be replenished, and they have to guard the White Horse Pass, so they dare not go all out.

    "But we can't just stare at those offal from the vast sea and let them continue to have a good time."

    "That's natural. Although we can't do anything about them temporarily, we can cut off their supplies." Yuan Jie said with a smile.

    "How about it, the task of cutting off their supplies is entrusted to your 52nd Banner Regiment, can you complete the task?"

    "The leader of the legion is wise, so you can rest assured and hand it over to our 52nd Banner Regiment, and promise not to let a grain of food enter the camp of Hanhai offal!"

    Hearing that Yuan Jie, the head of the army, asked him to lead his troops to cut off the supply connection between the Hanhai army and the rear, Xie Yuan also understood Yuan Jie's intentions, and immediately agreed.

    "Okay then, let's go."

    "No!"

    Soon, the cavalry of the 52nd Banner Regiment, led by Xie Yuan, the head of the Banner Regiment, quickly bypassed Hanhai's camp and inserted behind Hanhai's army.

    They quickly blocked the connection between the Hanhai Fire Phoenix Army and the rear, occupied the main roads everywhere, and built a blockade.

    "Master Legion, our convoy was attacked by cavalry from the Far East!"

    Just when Gu Yulan, the leader of the Fire Phoenix Army, relaxed when he saw that the Far Eastern cavalry could not break through their camp, another bad news came.

    "What, the Far East cavalry attacked our convoy?"

    After getting this news, the head of the legion, Gu Yulan, also became serious.

    "The scouts reported that there are about tens of thousands of cavalry behind us, and our two convoys transporting food and fodder were attacked by them."

    Legion Commander Gu Yulan's complexion also became ugly. If the food and fodder could not be transported to the front-line barracks, wouldn't they starve to death?

    "Despicable and shameless!"

    Gu Yulan, the regiment commander, also cursed the Far Eastern cavalry, because this move was too damaging.

    But this is how it is on the battlefield. In order to win, no means are too much.

    Gu Yulan also felt that she was too careless. She didn't expect that the Far Eastern cavalry could not break through their camp, and even sent troops to cut off their supply line.

    "How much food and fodder is there in our army?"

    "Only enough for the army for five days."

    "From now on, all food and fodder will be rationed, and the amount of each meal will be reduced by half."

    Gu Yulan didn't know when the supply line of food and fodder would be opened, so she also had to centrally ration the food and fodder in the barracks.

    "Send someone to ask for help quickly and report the difficulties our army is facing!"

    The current situation of the Fire Phoenix Legion is quite similarUnfortunately, the place where they are standing now is in the Far East.

    They are still some distance away from the border of the vast sea, and this distance is almost all relatively flat areas.

    It is almost impossible for them to withdraw from under the eyes of the Far East cavalry.

    I'm afraid that if they make a slight move, the Far Eastern cavalry will pounce on them like hungry wolves and bite them to pieces.

    Therefore, the only thing the Fire Phoenix Legion can do now is to stand firm and wait for help, hoping that the troops in the rear can rush to help in time.

    The Far East Cavalry almost surrounded the Fire Phoenix Legion on the front line. Facing the Far East Cavalry galloping around, the soldiers of the Fire Phoenix Legion also had trouble sleeping and eating.

    When the Fire Phoenix Legion was in trouble on the front line, in Kaiyuan City in Qingzhou behind, the Undead Legion was holding a grand celebration.

    The Undead Legion led by Legion Commander Du Chengzhi ambushed the United Kingdom's army in the mountains north of Kaiyuan City. In the first battle, they beheaded 60,000 heads and a legion commander. It can be said that it was an unprecedented victory.

    Facing such a hearty victory, the morale of the Undead Legion was also high, and Du Chengzhi, the head of the Legion, also sent someone to take the captured to Wangcheng to ask for credit and reward.

    The rewards from Wangcheng have not yet come down, but within the Undead Legion, Du Chengzhi, the head of the Legion, also held a big banquet in order to reward the soldiers who have made great achievements in battle.

    Therefore, the undead army rested in Kaiyuan City, drinking and eating meat almost every day, and it was very lively.

    Not only did they eat up all the chicken, duck and fish meat in Kaiyuan City and surrounding villages and towns, they also sent people to Tushan City, Longlang City and other areas to purchase chicken, duck, fish meat and fine wine to celebrate the victory.

    "Isn't Gu Yulan very arrogant, why is she begging me now?"

    When the Undead Legion was celebrating its great victory in Kaiyuan City, Du Chengzhi, the head of the Legion, also received a letter from the Fire Phoenix Legion asking for help.

    Seeing Gu Yulan, the always proud head of the Fire Phoenix Army, asking for help, the vanity of Du Chengzhi, the head of the Undead Army, was also greatly satisfied.

    After all, Gu Yulan is an ice-cold beauty, and now she puts down her body and asks him for help, which is indeed a rare thing.

    "Master Legion, are we going to rescue?"

    After drinking a glass of wine, Jiang Guohao, the vice-corpsman of the Undead Legion who drank and ate meat, cast his eyes on Du Chengzhi, the regiment leader.

    "Save, why don't you save them, anyway, they are also our allies, aren't they?" Du Chengzhi took a sip from his wine glass, and then said slowly.

    "It's just that we have just ended the war, and the brothers are also exhausted. I'm afraid they are powerless." Du Chengzhi added.

    Du Chengzhi said with a chuckle: "Send someone to send a message to Gu Yulan. If you want me to save her, it's okay, but we can't be without benefits, right?"

    "I would also like to ask the head of the legion to express it clearly." Jiang Guohao, the deputy of the legion, was also taken aback, not understanding what Du Chengzhi meant.

    "Let's just say that I have admired her for a long time, and hope to get married." Du Chengzhi said.

    "Master Legion, Gu Yulan has a hot temper, so I probably won't agree."

    "Hmph, she failed miserably at Baima Pass this time, do you think the court will let her go?"

    "Master Legion Leader, I understand." Deputy Legion Jiang Guohao also showed a knowing smile on his face.

    After all, Gu Yulan, the head of the Fire Phoenix Legion, is one of the top ten beauties of the Hanhai Dynasty, and many top rich men admire her endlessly.

    However, Gu Yulan was born in a wealthy family, and inherited her father's job as the army commander. Many suitors were broken by her.

    So even though Gu Yulan is in her thirties, her eyes are higher than her head, and she has been leading the army for a long time, so she is still single. Du Chengzhi naturally wants to take the opportunity to embrace the beauty.  The power of the Du family will also be greatly enhanced.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
