Li Yueming considered this very carefully.
After all, in this fantasy world, political marriage was not as simple as it seemed. There was aplete set of logic behind it, so the choice of partner was very important.
However, before Li Yueming could think it through, Su Meng was the first to fall for it.
Every day, she followed Li Yueming around like a stalker, following him wherever he went.
Although she didn’t say it out loud, everyone with eyes could see that the most beloved princess of the Western Garrison Liege Lord had fallen under Li Yueming’s handsome face and gentle temperament.
This was not strange.
General Li was one of the top talents in the world. How could those ordinary menpare to him?
In the end, Li Yueming still chose to ept Su Meng due to various considerations.
In terms of appearance alone, Su Meng was considered unique among the women Li Yueming had met. She was already a top-notch beauty, not to mention that Su Meng had the Western Garrison Liege Lord behind her.
Thus, both parties hit it off and quickly became brothers-inw.
With this rtionship, the rtionship between the Star Moon Army and the Western Garrison Army was even more unbreakable.
The Western Garrison Army once again sent 20,000 troops to Northern Ice
River Town, while the Star Moon Army also sent 50,000 troops to replenish the Western Garrison Army’s losses. The trust between the two sides had increased exponentially.
But now, after two to three years ofmunication, the Star Moon Army and the Western Garrison Army were basically inseparable.
It was also during this year.
The emperor led a million troops from Tiger Subdue Pass to the east, preparing to annihte the Star Moon Army of Northern Ice River Town.
This strategic goal was within everyone’s expectations.
The Western Garrison Army was a troop with a military spirit. They also upied the natural barrier of the Western Garrison Pass. Even the Qin army had spent so many years but could not take it down. As long as the Zhou
Dynasty was not stupid, they would definitely not choose to attack the Western Garrison Army first.
The Starmoon Troop’s headquarters was located in North cier Town.
Although it was easy to defend and difficult to attack, the lower reaches of North cier Town were ins formed by river water.
There are so many troops on the ins that can be arranged into formations, so there are ces that can allow arge number of soldiers to be stationed.
The Zhou Dynasty had just experienced a war and had yet to fully recover. Therefore, the million troops announced to the public this time were actually exaggerated.
The emperor’s army, including the logistics and supplies, only numbered 800,000.
100,000 of them were ve soldiers and did not have muchbat power.
There were only 700,000 real warriors who could fight.
Of these 700,000 soldiers, 100,000 were responsible for transporting rations, while the remaining 300,000 were ordinary soldiers. Only 300,000 of them were elites with military souls.
Of course, this 300,000 yuan was not to be underestimated.
Although there weren’t many of them, they were all elites.
Back then, the Qin army’s attack was extremely swift and fierce, and the Great Zhou, who had been passively fighting, appeared to be in a hurry. Arge number of elites scattered throughout the country had not had the time to be mobilized, and the Qin army had already left after burning, killing, and looting.
It made many of the Royal Guards feel as if they were at a loss.
This expedition against the Star Moon Army was initiated by the emperor, so the soldiers were naturally well-prepared.
In terms of military strength.
Even if the Star Moon Army, the Northern Army, and the Western Army joined forces, the number of troops was less than half of the Great Zhou Army.
After several years of adjustment, the number of Star and Moon Army had reached 250,000, while the Northern Army was only a remnant with less than 100,000 soldiers. With the aid of the Western Army, there were less than 500,000 soldiers.
Besides, both the Northern Garrison Army and the Starlink Army were ordinary soldiers, and only 120 ,ooo soldiers of the Western Garrison Army possessed the Army Soul. Compared to the 300,000 elite troops of the Zhou Dynasty that possessed the military soul, they were three fifths smaller.
Of course, it was not impossible to fight this war.
After all, the Star-Moon Troop had the advantage of geographical location and manpower. Northern cier Town was Li Yueming’sir, so there was no need to transport any rations from other ces. This advantage was something that the Royal Court troops could notpare to.
The mighty Royal Coalition Army was heading towards Northern cier Town. To be honest, when they saw the towering city walls and well-equipped troops, they were shocked.
All the higher-ups of the Royal Coalition Army were dumbfounded.
What was going on?
How could arge city that wasparable to an important town in the Central ins appear in this godforsaken ce?
There were also generals who were proficient in military affairs.
Looking at the high city walls of Northern cier Town, he involuntarily cried out, “You call this a town? This could already be considered a city, right?”
In the crowd, an old general said in a daze, ‘”‘Thirty years ago, when I was young, I once traveled to the border of the Great Zhou Dynasty. At that time, I went to this cold northern border, but I had never seen such a vast city here. Li Yueming is really a monster. He was able to build such a huge city in less than twenty years. It’s really unbelievable…”
The others nodded repeatedly and echoed,”lndeed, to be able to make such terrifying achievements in such a short period of time, if such a monster is not eliminated as soon as possible, my Great Zhou will probably be unable to sleep in the future!”
All the royal armored soldiers who had brought the mighty allied army into the northern region were amazed by the magnificence of Northern Ice River Town. Their fear of Li Yueming and the Star-Moon Army grew stronger.
How long had it been?
Li Yueming had already grown from an unremarkable scion of an aristocratic family to the leader of an army. A few years ago, he had seized the opportunity to unite the entire northern army to rebel and ruthlessly stomp on the head of the Great Zhou.
If they could not suppress it this time, it would not be long before the fate of the entire state would be threatened and it would be difficult to maintain.
The alliance army formed by the dukes and the Zhou royal family was stationed fifty miles away from North Ice River Town.
The army had traveled a long distance, so they naturally couldn’t fight immediately.
He had to rest for a while and grasp enough information before he couldunch an attack ording to the actual situation.
After the alliance army rested for five days, theyunched an attack on Northern cier Town on the morning of the sixth day.
The soldiers of Northern Ice River Town naturally did not want to be outdone andunched a counterattack.
The two sides fought by the Northern Ice River. Millions of troops fought until the sky turned dark and rivers of blood flowed…Relying on the advantage of the city wall, the Starmoon Troop did not suffer too much in the first round.
The alliance army suddenly realized that Northern Ice River Town, after joining forces with the Western Garrison Army, was already able to contend with the Wang Ji City’s troops. Although there was still a huge gap, it would not be destroyed at a single touch.
This discovery made the upper echelons of the alliance army even more cautious.
The attacks in the next few days became more and more steady.
In terms of marching and fighting, those in strong positions should carry out the kingly way.
In a head-on sh, the Starmoon Troop, which was small in number, did not have a reserve team, while the Royal Guards could frequently change their reserves.
Under such circumstances, the Star Moon Army would definitely be defeated. Only the weaker ones would need to use schemes and tricks to make up for the difference in strength when they were unable to face the enemy head-on. As the powerful capital region army, the alliance army had twice the number of soldiers in North cier Town.
Under such circumstances, all the other strategies that could not be put on the table could be put aside. The alliance army only needed to crush the Star Moon Army with their raw strength.
As expected, the alliance leader’s judgment was right.
As the allied forces took turns to deplete their energy, the Starmoon Troop’sbat power was declining rapidly.
Half a monthter, the alliance army organized arge-scale attack.
The Star Moon Army, the Northern Army, and the Western Army had all suffered great losses due to the high-intensity war. In thisrge-scale attack, tens of thousands of soldiers had even climbed up the walls of Northern Ice River Town.
They had almost won the war.
Although they were still chased off the city walls, this battle had caused some damage to the city walls of Northern cier Town.
The alliance army was overjoyed.
Northern Ice River Town had only been established for a short period of time.
Although the city walls were built very thick and heavy, in order to speed up the construction, they did notpletely implement the traditional wall construction method. Instead, they used a new casting method.
This method could allow the construction of the Northern cier Town’s city walls to be done quickly, but the strength of the city walls was stillcking.
In a battle of normal intensity, the walls of Northern cier Town
