"Husband, there is news from Red Peony that the King of Western Xia is coming towards the fishing city with 300,000 soldiers and horses." Zhang Chuchen hurried over to talk about this matter.

"Han Meng is really a character when he is decisive, 300,000 soldiers and horses should be all he has, and he really likes to take the sword sideways."

Li De really admires the other party, if he is holding on, maybe he can enjoy some time, and it seems that it is inevitable to be decisive in doing things.

"Well, how long do you expect the people from Youzhou to arrive?" Li De asked.

"According to the time, the first batch of 50,000 people will arrive in fifteen days." Zhang Chuchen said.

"There's a lot of shipping, but it's really slow." Li De complained.

In fact, this speed is already very fast, and if you still use the old ship, the speed may be even slower, and there is nothing wrong with using it for twenty days.

Riding on an improved merchant ship would also have been delayed so much, and 50,000 soldiers and horses and a large amount of supplies could solve many problems at once by sea transportation.

Yucheng has begun to reserve grain in the past few days, and it is necessary to reserve grain and grass for war, Situ En is very experienced in this regard, and the most important thing here is food.

"Situ En, 30,000 people will be dispatched to strengthen patrols to prevent the enemy from sneaking up on various industries." Li De instructed.

The fishing city and various projects are not guarded by walls, and it is very easy for the enemy to destroy them in the event of a war.

In order to prevent trouble, Li De had no intention of sitting still at all.

What if there are only 30,000 soldiers and horses that can be mobilized, 30,000 is not afraid of 300,000.

"Situ En, this time it depends on your ability."

"Rest assured, the trap is guaranteed to delay their journey." Situ En assured.

It's not like he's boasting, the environment here is very suitable for setting traps, and Situ En himself likes these things and has never given up researching.

Now he can take his guards to the fullest, and the purpose is to delay the speed of the other party's trip, so they must find the other party's itinerary in advance and arrange it.

30,000 soldiers and horses left Li De like this, he was still calm, you know

The rest of the people are all used to protect the industry, and there are not many people who can be transferred, so it can be said that except for the five hundred tiger guards he brought can be mobilized, the vanguard soldiers in charge of guarding the industry can't move, unless they don't plan to ask for the property here.

In this case, if it is lost, it will even hurt the root.

"How fast can the speed of 300,000 soldiers and horses be, our vanguard soldiers are all cavalry, even if they meet, they will not suffer."

Li De is very calm, and the cavalry has a strong advantage over the infantry itself.

Situ En led 30,000 people to arrange on the only section of the road, and there were many ways to delay time, and the most time-saving and labor-saving method they used was to sow thistle terrestris directly on the road.

Tribulus terrestris is a thing full of spikes, and horses and pedestrians want to pass unless they are picked up one by one.

Situ En has a large amount of thistle terrestris in his hands, and it takes a lot of time even if there are many people on the other side.

It is impossible to make a detour, because there is no possibility of a detour, and when the opponent wants to send someone to pick up thistles, the archers will play their role.

Stalling for time was not a stretch for Situ En.

The archers of the vanguard, when prepared, were able to shoot without missing arrows, and leaving a few thousand men would have been able to delay for a long time.

As for thistles, it is not troublesome that things like thistles can be recycled after the war.

In particular, the magnets provided by the blacksmith's workshop are a powerful tool for collecting thistles, which can be easily recovered when the enemy retreats.

Situ En didn't just rely on this method, his trap would not really show up until the other party rushed through the thistle formation.

There are acupuncture arrays, fire oil arrays, smoke arrays, etc., which are not lethal enough but there is no problem at all in delaying time.

Han Meng came with soldiers and horses much faster than expected, and he had to hurry up on the line of life and death.

Even if he still has to face the revenge of Youzhou after solving Li De, but he is not afraid of having Xixia City, even if he is given some time to defend the city, he is confident, of course, in Li De's opinion, this kind of confidence is a mystery.

"Your Majesty, there is an ambush ahead and it is impassable."

It was the first time they had seen such a thing, and the iron thistle array in front of them was almost impossible to see.

Han Meng was a little confused, how much iron does it take to make so many iron lumps, iron is a very important material for good things.

"Send someone to clean these things out quickly."

Hundreds of people were just about to pick them up after they set out, and then they were met by countless arrows, and all of them were hit by arrows.

"It's not good, there's dirt on the arrow, clean it up quickly."

Situ En doesn't care so much, it is absolutely impossible to win more with less and use some means, so he uses the lowest price to achieve the greatest goal, so he does everything.

The essence of the trap allows him to play it to the fullest.

"There are archers, be careful."

Han Meng's people lost dozens of people, and dozens of people had to be treated when they were hit by arrows, and they suffered a lot of losses just when they encountered them.

"Set up a shield and clear it quickly."

Han Meng is really not a reckless man, he can think of using a shield to form a defense, and the speed of picking up people in the back is not slow, and the archers can only look for the enemy's weakness and release cold arrows.

Even then someone will be hit.

Han Meng was under a lot of pressure, and seeing the pressure of the vanguard made him feel pressure, the soldiers were able to reach this level, what would happen if they faced many vanguards.

Han Meng left all these things behind, it was really not the time to think about it.

What made the Western Xia soldiers desperate was that it was as if they could never finish picking up these things, and how many of them had never seen the end.

Stalling for time, Situ said he was professional.

Situ En looked at the thistles that still had a carriage left, wondering if they were all used, and then looked at the section in front of him as if there was no room for sowing before stopping.

"Let them pick it up."

The delay was enough for them to do a lot of things, and one thistle terrestris was picked up by the opposing party's people for three days, and in these three days, the results of the archers were not small, and at least dozens of people were hit.

It's not too late, and the damage that can be done by an infected wound is terrifying.

"I don't know how Situ En is doing." Pei Qingxuan was a little worried, after all, he was facing 300,000 soldiers, and even if the vanguard soldiers were all cavalry, they might not be able to take advantage of much.

She worries about being blocked, because although the horses are convenient, there are many environments that have to be restricted, such as in the mountains and forests.

The environment here is a lot of mountains and forests, if you are not familiar with the terrain here, it is easy to get lost, Li De brought the team this time is making records all the way, and they are very clear about the situation here.

"Don't worry, Situ En has been here for two years, don't you still believe in the combat effectiveness of the vanguard."
