C844 The Situation in Qata

As a matter of fact, judging from the information sent back by Yang Xuan, this wasn't the best time to attack Qatar. However, there wasn't much time left for Xu Ruxian. Therefore, after getting a general idea of the situation, ... Xu Ruxian chose to send out his troops without any hesitation. At this moment, in Qatar City, a million people from the Barbarian Army had gathered here. And from the information Yang Xuan had received, there were still many experts here.1

Previously, Grand Elder Taller from the Martial Hall had tried to assassinate Yang Xuan at the request of Prince Ta Tan. After he had failed and returned, he had decided to retire and never ask about the affairs of the world. Even Grand Elder of the Martial Hall had retired from his position. However, not long ago, the army of Wei Kingdom came to the city, and Barbarian King and Thar of the Barbarian Clan... They had actually used some unknown method to persuade Taller to come out of the mountain once again.

However, he did not return to the Martial Hall. He was the strongest person in the entire Barbarian Country. After he failed to assassinate a junior, he knew that he had no face to return to the Martial Hall. But this time, he was the chief instructor of the Barbarian Clan's million strong army. Although Dale thought that he had lost all face, the rest of the people in the Barbarian Clan didn't think so. In their hearts, Dale was no different from a spiritual pillar.

When Xu Ruxian, the Prime Minister of Wei Kingdom, hadn't entered the Seventh Stage yet, Barbarian Clan launched an attack on Wei Kingdom. That time, it was Barbarian King's most outstanding son, Third Prince Tasha, who led the army. Dale assisted from the side. Although Xu Ruxian had already gained quite a bit of fame in Wei Kingdom at that time, when faced with Dale, who had been famous in Barbarian Clan for many years, still a little powerless.

However, later on, when Xu Ruxian plotted to trap and kill Prince Theo, it was Dale who did it. Yu Wanjun charged in front of Xu Ruxian from the middle, although he did not kill Xu Ruxian. However, he still managed to kill dozens of Wei Kingdom generals by Xu Ruxian's side with his formidable strength.

It was also because of the death of these military officers that the Wei Kingdom's army started to become chaotic. Xu Ruxian's order could not be passed on to every soldier below, making them start to fight on their own. This was also the one operation that could be described as a divine stroke of luck by Dale, which made the Wei Kingdom's army, which was supposed to charge into the Barbarian Country with irresistible force, break through. They stopped in front of the Fallen Leaf Plains.

From that moment on, Dale had become the object of worship for all the soldiers of the Barbarian Clan. After that, Xu Ruxian resigned, but the army of the Wei Kingdom had stabilized in front of the Fallen Leaf Plains. The huge Profound Gate Pass was built to block wave after wave of attacks from Barbarian Clan.

Therefore, it was difficult to resolve the grudges between the Wei Kingdom and the Barbarian Country.

Although Dale had come out of the mountain once again and became the chief instructor of all the troops, Yang Xuan did not see Dale, nor did he hear that Dale had appeared in any of the troops. According to Yang Xuan's guess, Dale was most likely hiding in that dark and unknown corner. Then, at the most critical moment, he jumped out and launched a fatal attack on Wei Kingdom. And the reason Yang Xuan got this judgment was precisely the movement of Wei Kingdom's army.

The army of the Wei Kingdom started heading north from the Profound Gate Pass, from the Fallen Leaf Plains to the Flower Plains. They did not see any larger army. Even the current land was still covered in ice and snow, and the climate was not pleasant to look at. Xu Ruxian, who was on the safe side, also sent people to search. However, they did not discover the existence of the Barbarian Army.

The army of the Barbarian Clan had all gathered in Qatar City.

This was supposed to be a cruel and normal thing. After all, Barbarian King and Thar had already agreed to join the Wei Kingdom. They wanted to cede the three plains to Wei Kingdom, so it wasn't strange for them to withdraw all of their troops. However, the strange thing wasn't here, but the movements of these soldiers during this period of time.

If it was said that Thar was afraid that Wei Kingdom would conquer the three plains, it was very normal for him to have all the soldiers prepare for battle. However, these soldiers did not train during this period of time. Instead, they were in a very relaxed state. Yang Xuan had seen this kind of situation many times. Before the army prepared to set out for battle, he would let them relax a little so that they could recover to their peak condition. Although the soldiers were still relaxing, an organization similar to the Wei Kingdom's Ministry of War began to operate at full power in the city. All kinds of military supplies were mobilized and distributed to every soldier.

Obviously, although the Barbarian Clan's strength was much weaker compared to the Wei Kingdom, the king of the Barbarian Clan, Thar, was also a smart person. He had already calculated everything.

It was true that the three grasslands of the Barbarian Clan were ceded to the Wei Kingdom, but after all, it was a place where the Barbarian Clan had lived for hundreds of years. He was extremely familiar with this place. Therefore, they weren't afraid even if the land here was given to the Wei Kingdom. As long as Wei Kingdom didn't have the time to build a line of defense along the furious river, this place would be like their backyard garden to Barbarian Clan. The army of the Wei Kingdom totaled up to 1.5 million men, which was the most elite force in the entire Wei Kingdom. However, one should know that the population of the Wei Kingdom was more than 100 million. It was only an elite force of more than 1 million men, and the men of Barbarian Clan on the grassland grew up on horseback. Therefore, it was as easy as eating a meal for them to ride a horse. It was also because of this that the total population of Barbarian Clan was less than 20 million. However, they were able to gather up a million troops. Moreover, more than 80% of the army of one million were cavalry.

When the leader of Tiger Army, Qi Yulong, heard the news, he almost drooled. One should know that the Tiger Army was an army that mainly consisted of cavalry. Fifty thousand of them were cavalry, and thirty thousand of them were from the heavy cavalry. In fact, Qi Yulong had long wanted to build an army that was entirely composed of cavalry, but there weren't many places in Wei Kingdom that were suitable for raising horses. Therefore, the number of warhorses in Wei Kingdom had been very low for many years. However, as long as they occupied the three grasslands of Barbarian Clan, the number of horses in Wei Kingdom would be as many as they wanted.

Qi Yulong could not wait to rush into Qatar City with his men and snatch some of the war horses from the soldiers of Barbarian Clan. He wanted to have a good time first.

Of course, this idea was quickly dispelled by Xu Ruxian.

After he decided to start sending troops to Qatar, Xu Ruxian ordered his men to build some simple bridges on the River of Rage.

It wasn't that the people of Barbarian Clan were stingy and didn't want to build bridges on the River of Rage, it was just that the water flow on the River of Rage was too great during the flood season every year. Even the bridges built with pure iron wouldn't take long before they were destroyed by the impact of the water flow. Therefore, the Barbarian Clan gave up on building bridges on the River of Rage. However, there was still quite a distance between the Autumn Wind Plains and the Flower Plains. The Angry River was buried underground and became an underground river.
