After rebirth, I became Little Marquis’s Bai Yueguang

With the fighting going on in Jinyun City, the pressure on Shuofang City suddenly decreased.

The Tatar tribe placed heavy troops outside Jinyun City, pretending that they wanted to invade the Central Plains from this city that even Rouran could not open since the Xiao family took over.

After several battles, both sides suffered losses. But Jinyun City is backed by the vast and fertile Central Plains, and supplies from the capital are constantly being delivered to the city, so Xiao Yunyue can afford it.

Tata'er originally wanted to capture Shuofang City and then cut off the supplies in Jinyun City, trapping Jinyun City into an isolated city.

But Shuofang and Xijin depended on each other, and reinforcements arrived very quickly. Unless the two cities attacked together, it would be too difficult to capture Shuofang alone.

But if Jinyun is not trapped into an isolated city so that he can have a steady stream of supplies, it is simply a fantasy to seize Jinyun City and go straight into the hinterland of the Central Plains. Do you really think that the defenders in Jinyun City and the Sixteenth Cavalry of Youyun are vegetarians?

Moreover, Ba Liehong had already received the news that Xiao Yinghuai had arrived in Jinyun City a few days ago.

Xiao Yinghuai was scheming and Xiao Yunyue was full of vigor. The Xiao family went into battle with father and son soldiers. Xiao Yunyue led the Sixteenth Cavalry of Youyun several times to defeat the forwards of King Tata'er's army. Even the sight of the black-armored black cavalry was frightening.

But Xiao Yunyue could afford it, but Tata'er tribe couldn't afford it anymore.

Seeing that this war has been fought from late autumn to early winter, the Tatar tribe did not take any advantage and suffered heavy losses.

The Wang Army was okay. After all, they followed the Tatar tribe to conquer the grasslands. Moreover, supplies of food and grass were given priority, so they haven't heard any complaints yet.

But the small tribe following them was already full of complaints. They originally thought they could drink some soup by following the Tata'er tribe, but they didn't expect that the Tata'er tribe, which was sweeping across the grassland, was beaten like a grandson by Xiao Yunyue outside Jinyun City.

Not to mention attacking Jinyun City, they couldn't even enter the five miles below Jinyun City. Supplies were not available to them, and they had to serve as cannon fodder at the front during the war. The tribe lost a lot of young men. Many small tribes trembled in their calves as they looked at the Xiao family's military flag raised in the distance.

If it continues like this, it will definitely not survive this winter. Since the war is not going well, we might as well admit defeat and negotiate.

Cut off some pastures to small tribes in exchange for some winter food and grass. It won't be too late to consider war next year when the king's army is fully trained.

As for which tribes will be ceded, and whether the small tribes that have lost their pasture can survive, it is practical to live first without dying as a Taoist friend or as a poor Taoist.

From the previous dynasty to the present, the disputes within and outside the Guan have always been like this, even when Rou Ran was there, there was no exception. It was not until Rouran's ambition grew that she was completely kicked out of the country by the Xiao family in the second year of Jingyuan.

But even so, Rouran's remnants of Dayan were still not wiped out. Although the Central Plains is strong, the grasslands also have their own advantages.

Once the king's army retreats deep into the grassland, it will be difficult to find Dayan's army without a clear map and a guide who knows the roads well. They will only be cut into small pieces and eaten by them.

Although the Tatar tribe had an overwhelming advantage over the small tribes below, Balehong could not completely ignore their opinions.

There is a truce today, but there is another quarrel in the king's tent.

Bareron's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. A few days ago, when he was speaking harsh words in front of the battle, his helmet was shot off by an arrow from Xiao Yunyue on top of the city.

If the henchman next to him hadn't reacted quickly enough, the arrow would have been nailed between his eyebrows!

Even if he just shot off his helmet and was not injured, the humiliation was enough for Barelon to feel aggrieved. So now he refuses to withdraw his troops and must give Jinyun City a good look.

The family behind him that supported Barreron was naturally one he sided with.

I originally expected to achieve great success through this battle, but in the end, I failed to achieve any success and almost lost my life.

In contrast, although Balexuan was not as brave as Baleron in front of the battle, he had made great contributions in logistics planning and early intelligence. Over time, the originally swaying tribes turned to Balexuan. There are already more and more. Those who advocated continuing the fight naturally felt that the royal army had not gained any benefits from the expedition and would damage the prestige of the Tatar tribe in the grassland.

The party advocating peace talks naturally said that if the current war drags on, the losses to the king's army will only increase, and winter is coming soon, which will be even more unfavorable for them.

Stop now and maintain the current strength. At least the royal army will still have an overwhelming advantage over the grassland tribes. If this continues, the losses will be too great, and they will not even be able to control the existing grassland territory.

Balehong half-closed his eyes and listened to the tense quarrel in the tent. After a while, he came out and stopped: "Okay."

As soon as he opened his mouth, both parties could only temporarily stop and listen to him.

"Delaying it any longer will indeed be of no benefit to Wang Jun."

The party advocating for peace talks suddenly looked happy, and heard the meaning behind Barehong's words.

"But." Balehong changed his tone: "If we negotiate like this, we won't have any bargaining chips in our hands, and we will only be at the mercy of Dayan."

In the current war, Dayan has an almost overwhelming advantage. Even if they agree to peace talks, they will definitely have to cut out a piece of flesh from the Tatar tribe.

They need at least one victory to prove that they have the ability to intimidate Dayan, so that they will not lose too much at the peace table.

As for the losses during this expedition and how to survive this cold winter, a trace of cruelty flashed in Balehong's eyes, and he would just massacre some small tribes to make up for it.

Survival of the fittest is a cruel law on the grassland.

After hearing this, everyone already understood what Balehong meant and put aside their arguments for the time being.

Balehong said to Balelong on the side: "Long'er, I leave this war to you. The things that were transported to the army yesterday can also be used this time."

This meant giving him another chance to make meritorious deeds. Bareron looked happy, stood up and saluted, saying, "Thank you, father."

Balehong glanced at the people in the tent with different expressions and said slowly: "Okay, let's disperse. Let's go and get ready."

Bareron was the first to walk out of the big tent, obviously going to his cronies to arrange the war and regain his position in this battle.

Over there, Xiao Yunyue was half-leaning on the city wall, reading a letter written by Yuan Miaoyi.

There were frequent reports of good news in Beijing, and it seemed that the war was not tense, so Yuan Miaoyi sent a letter to Xiao Yunyue through the trading house this time.

Although it was just a small daily thing, it could at least relieve Xiao Yunyue's pain of lovesickness. Xiao Yunyue looked at it with a soft smile on his lips unconsciously.

The sixteen cavalry patrolling nearby saw Xiao Yunyue like this. They pushed each other around and winked, with tacit smiles on each other's faces.

Xiao Yunyue noticed their movements, folded the letter paper in his hand and put it into his arms before going over and saying, "What are you doing? The city has been patrolled?"
