Li Bingchang's indifference made Li Yanze feel scared. It can be said that Li Bingchang's actions completely violated the principles set by Li Liangzuo at the beginning. However, Li Yanze did not think that Li Bingchang was wrong in doing this. On the contrary, Li Yanze admired Li Bingchang very much while being afraid. The most important thing for a commander is to be decisive. It is obvious that these wounded soldiers have not lived for a long time. Instead of letting him drag others down half-deadly, it is better to deal with them all.

After the blizzard stopped, Li Bingchang led his army to set off. Although the journey was difficult, Li Bingchang never gave up. This was an opportunity for Li Bingchang, but it was a test for the 100,000 Xia army, because before that, the Xia army had never marched on a plateau with such a high altitude. Many soldiers had a plateau after entering the plateau, and despite this, they were still persevering.

In the Tochar region, Li Wu, Huama and Muzheng led more than 10,000 Xia cavalry to hide in the desert oasis not far from Tiemen Pass and Termi. During this period, in order to solve the problem of eating for more than 10,000 people, Li Wu led his troops across the desert to attack the logistics food route of the Serbian army many times, causing significant losses to the Serbian army. Since the Serbian army had more than 700,000 in the area north of Tiemen Pass, although some of the food and grass problems could be solved locally, most of them still needed support from the Seljuk Empire, so this food route was basically the lifeline of the Serbian army.

"Prince, what do you say about the envoy sent by Your Majesty?" Huama and Muzheng asked Li Wu.

Li Wu looked at the map with his hands behind his back and said, "The envoy is indeed an envoy sent by his father. The latest order from his father allowed us to find a way to cut off the food route of the Subish army."

"Break the military food route?" Hanama and Muzheng said in shock: "Don't your Majesty know our current situation? Not to mention cutting off other people's food routes at this time, it would be great if we could leave alive."

"The father has sent reinforcements, and we need to cooperate in the fight at that time."

"Reinforcements? This is the hinterland of the Serbian army. How could His Majesty send reinforcements here?"

"At the beginning, I couldn't figure out where my father would send reinforcements here, but just now I felt that I should guess it."

"Please make it clear."

"Two roads, one from the west and the other from the east; if they go from the west, the army needs to pass through the Khwarezmian country, and then head south along the Amu River and finally arrive here; from the east, you need to cross the Pamir Mountains, and after crossing the Pamir Mountains, you can get here by the Gassini Dynasty. However, no matter which one of these two roads is taken, it is not easy to walk. Now, which road reinforcements take, and who will lead the troops will be led by me. "

"Whether the old ministers are involved, reinforcements are likely to go to the Pamir Mountains."

"Why did the old general say that? Please give me some advice."

"If you come from the west, Your Majesty will need to draw troops from the front battlefield, but if you come from the east, there will be no such problem; when Your Majesty was conquering the Western Regions, he sent His Highness Dai to lead a 100,000 army to station the army in Khotan, and he probably had prepared for today."

"Wouldn't that mean that the king's elder brother is coming to reinforce?" Li Wuyu said earnestly.

After thinking for a long time, Li Wu said to Huama and Muzheng, "Old General, you and I must break the food route of the Serbian army before our army arrives."

Although Li Wu did not explain the reason, Huama and Mu Zheng knew in his heart that although the relationship between Li Wu and Li Bingchang has always been good, it is inevitable to win the battle. As the two grew older, their original brotherhood was getting weaker and weaker, and they became more competitive opponents. After all, the two had the same goal, and they both wanted to ascend to the position of prince and become Li Liangzuo's successor, but there was only one position.

"Since the prince has an order, I will obey it."

"According to the news from the spies we bought, a large number of food and grass will be transported from Teermi to Samo City tomorrow. As long as we can rob these food and grass, it will definitely cause severe damage to the Serbian army."

"How much food or grass is there?"

"If the Serbian army transported this batch of grain and grass to the front line, it would be possible to solve their grain and grass for at least one month, so this batch of grain and grass must be robbed."

"What is the prince planning to fight this battle?"

"Sneak attack..."

On the other hand, in Samo City, since the war on the front has basically stabilized, Maliksha returned to Samo City and handed over all the matters on the front to the generals below. Although the Serbian army is at a slight disadvantage in overall terms, this does not make Maliksha worried. What really makes Maliksha worried is the issue of food and grass supply. Now the food and grass stored in Samo City is only enough to maintain the army for ten days. It takes at least eight days for the grain transport team to Samo City from Termi to Samo City. Now the only thing Maliksha can count on is that the food and grass can arrive as scheduled.

"Your Majesty, everything has been arranged." Sevic walked to Maliksha and said.

Maliksha said to Sevic, "The importance of this batch of food and grass is not necessary, so I don't need to say it! No matter what, this batch of food and grass must arrive as scheduled; the remnants of the Xia army who ran away from our noses will definitely try every means to destroy this batch of food and grass, so that you can personally lead a troops to pick them up and use this opportunity to annihilate all the remnants of the Xia army."

"Yes, the last general will take the order."

Food and grass are the lifeblood of the army no matter where and when. Once there is no food and grass, the army will soon lose its combat effectiveness or even mutiny. Therefore, Maliksha must ensure that this batch of food and grass can arrive as scheduled. Otherwise, Maliksha can only choose to shrink the defense line. In fact, the food and grass of the Serbian army is not only enough for ten days. As the old nest of the Serbian army in the Western Regions, the food and grass of the 700,000 Xia army are stored in the front line. The food and grass of the followers can usually last for five to ten days. In addition, the food and grass of the Serbian army also store food and grass in other cities, but these are not many, and the total total can only be used by 700,000 troops in one day. Therefore, in this way, the Serbian army can last at most half a month without getting supplies.

After receiving the order from Maliksha, Sevic immediately dispatched 30,000 elite cavalry of the Serbian army to set off. In addition, due to the serious relationship between this batch of food and grass, the Serbian army sent more than 50,000 escort soldiers, and there were also 50,000 or 60,000 logistics personnel such as civilians. The entire grain transport team had more than 10,000 people. This shows the importance of the Serbian army on this transportation. It is basically impossible for Li Wu to burn these two million stones of food and grass with more than 10,000 cavalry.

In Xicheng, Li Liangzuo had moved the Xia army's camp here. Although the Xia army had gained a slight advantage in the front battlefield, in order to obey the overall strategic progress, the Xia army was still stepping back and luring the enemy into depth. Now the front line where the Serbian army fought with the Xia army is more than a hundred miles away from Xicheng. Although the Serbian army seemed to be advancing on the surface, the actual casualties were greater than that of the Xia army. Moreover, as the front moved eastward, the Serbian army exposed more and more things.
