C418

That day, they burnt all of Rebellion's three month old grain completely to nothing. This way, they wouldn't be able to fight even if they wanted to.

The morning of the second day, Hua Ruge changed into a tight sleeved military uniform. Looking at how valiant and formidable he was, he was just about to go to the other party's camp to persuade them to surrender.

But before she could leave, soldiers walked in and knelt down before Tuoba Rui who was looking at the map: "Reporting to Your Highness, we have received a written challenge from the Rebellion Envoys."

Hua Ruge was startled. You want to fight me already?

Tuoba Rui took the written challenge, and said to the curious Hua Ruge: "They want us to leave the camp tomorrow, and fight to the death."

"Is there something wrong with it?" Hua Ruge muttered.

Because the Rebellion had been greatly damaged in these past few days, the remaining three hundred thousand people were considered good. They simply could not compare to the three hundred thousand elite soldiers on his side.

Tuoba Rui placed the letter on the table, then said to the soldier: Send a scout horse to investigate the military situation ahead.

"Yes." The soldier answered and turned to leave.

Hua Ruge's eyes moved: "You suspect that there's a trick."

"Yes." Tuoba Rui said as he squinted his eyes to survey the map in front of him.

"I'll go to their camp and see if I can find out anything." Hua Ruge said.

Tuoba Rui looked at her and said: "If you go now, they will only arrest you."

Right now, the war was already very obvious. Even if she were to go, she would have to escape and come back.

Hua Ruge thought for a while, felt that he was in a difficult situation, and said: "Then I won't go."

Tuoba Rui raised his head from the map and frowned.

When the two of them were having lunch, the horse scout reported, "Your Highness, Cang Lan is sending troops to reinforce Rebellion up ahead. The number of troops is currently unknown."

Tuoba Rui and Hua Ruge put down their tableware together, surprise in their eyes.

"Look again." Tuoba Rui said as he walked in front of the map.

Cang Lan were located in the northeast, surrounded by the sea on the southeast, and on the west, three sides. Only the north side was the land, which was located on the east side, and the west side was the sea on the east, which was on the west, and the north side was the land.

Because the land was barren, with three sides facing the sea and scarce resources, Cang Lan had to plunder resources through years of war.

Now that Yutang had taken over more than half of the territory and Upper Nether Realm had been destroyed, he naturally did not dare to aim his spearhead at Da Yu.

And because Cang Lan plundered resources all year round, the army's combat ability was very strong, they were not familiar with Tuoba Rui's elite troops. If they fought in the same amount, Da Zheng might not have the advantage.

"The people who have come are not kind. There must be a lot of them this time." Hua Ruge said.

Tuoba Rui's face turned cold: You dare to bully me?

Hua Ruge could feel the cold air conditioning coming from Tuoba Rui. It seemed that he was truly angry.

When night came, another scout reported, "Reporting to Your Highness, the Cang Lan has sent five hundred thousand troops to set up camp outside the city."

Hua Ruge subconsciously squinted his eyes.

500,000 was indeed a huge sum.

Adding them to the eight hundred thousand from Rebellion, it would be a lot more difficult for them to deal with them.

Tuoba Rui waved his hand.

After the horse left, he revealed a pondering expression.

Very soon, more soldiers came in and handed over another letter. "Reporting to Your Highness, Rebellion has come again to send out a written challenge."

Hua Ruge immediately received the letter, the Destructive Flame in his hand rose and turned the envelope into ashes, and said: "If you continue to receive these, there's no need to send it back to me."

Three hundred thousand against eight hundred thousand, she wasn't that optimistic.

Tuoba Rui's eyes flashed with a cold light: "We have to fight in this battle."

Hua Ruge raised his eyebrows in confusion.

"It depends on who has the most manpower." Tuoba Rui replied before continuing, "In reply, tell them that I'll see you outside the city in three days."

The soldier obeyed and left.

Hua Ruge only knew a little tricks, she was not good at fighting against so many people, so she could not think of what Tuoba Rui would do.

However, when she thought of the reply she had received this morning, she laughed and said, "Perhaps I can help."

"I'm the one who counted you in." Tuoba Rui said.

Hua Ruge's somewhat bright eyes immediately darkened, and said unhappily: "Can't you give me a little feeling of existence?"

"You have a lot of weight in your heart." Tuoba Rui laughed.

Hua Ruge felt that he had become a bit more balanced.

When the troops of Rebellion and Cang Lan heard that Tuoba Rui was going to battle for the past three days, they were all extremely excited and were training.

Hua Ruge and Tuoba Rui stood on the city wall and watched the training.

"How confident are you?" Hua Ruge asked.

"Seventy percent of those without you will die, but many will die." Tuoba Rui replied.

"What about now?"

"One hundred percent." Tuoba Rui said with certainty.

Hua Ruge smiled and said, "It seems that my use is still quite great."

Tuoba Rui didn't say a word, and reached out to pull her into his embrace.

He should have had several lifetimes of good fortune to have her by his side.

At this time, a messenger from the imperial government with a command flag stuck behind his back came before the two of them and knelt down. "Reporting to Battle King, the latest news is that yesterday, Dong Xia and the five great lords of the west attacked us at the same time."

Although they had expected this to happen, their expressions were still stiff.

"How many troops did the enemy send?" What's the outcome of the battle? " Tuoba Rui asked.

"Send out an army of one million Dong Xia. Swear a blood oath to take revenge for Princess Dong Xia. Take ?" At this point, the messenger did not dare to continue.

"Take our heads." Hua Ruge added.

The messenger then nodded his head and said, "The five great lords of the west have mobilized three hundred thousand men. Marquis Hua is fighting back with all his might."

After confirming that there was no more news, Tuoba Rui dismissed the messenger and turned to look ahead once again.2

Hua Ruge's face became serious: This time it seems to be a bit big.

Tuoba Rui remained silent for a long while before saying, "Bei Chenyue is only an excuse. It has only been a few days since the news of her death was spread, and the million strong army of Dong Xia cannot be gathered in such a short period of time."

"I think so too. I just don't know what our Emperor is thinking." Hua Ruge asked worriedly.

At that moment, he was afraid that the emperor would be confused and trust his Dong Xia, thinking that if he killed Tuoba Rui, he would be fine.

"He wouldn't dare." Tuoba Rui said indifferently: "I wanted to borrow a blade to kill with Dong Xia, it's a pity that this blade is too blunt to borrow."

Hua Ruge was slightly relieved, and said: "What should we do now?"

"Although the Dong Xia has a million strong army pressing down on the borders, there are still 500,000 soldiers guarding at the borders. Royal Brother has always been timid, so he will definitely have the General Mao send troops back to guard.

"Your father has some difficulties to the west. He only has two hundred thousand soldiers; at most, he can defend for a month." Tuoba Rui analyzed.

"What is the total military strength of Zheng? Is there anything else you can move? " Hua Ruge asked again.
