I, the ninth grade county magistrate, scare the empress to tears at the beginning!

Chapter 84 Is she really Tianjian’s daughter?
After listening to Gu Changfeng's report, Lu Yuan also had a general understanding of the current situation.

Although the Liangzhou Family Alliance had a large number of people, he didn't take it to heart at all.

Not to mention that the aristocratic family alliance has its own agenda, and there is no cohesion of his troops at all.

At this moment, everyone actually wants to preserve their own strength, and even wants to take the opportunity to weaken the opponent's strength.

Among the family heads that have been passed down for hundreds or thousands of years, which one is as ungrateful as a ghost?
They knew very well that if they suffered too much loss in this battle, even if they defeated Lu Yuan, what would greet them next would be a butcher's knife from their ally.

It is under this situation, how high can their cohesion be?
If you encounter a slight setback, internal strife can occur, and you may even kill each other.

Lu Yuan has a hundred ways to deal with these people.

There are many ways to achieve this without losing any blood.

Whether it is sowing discord or pretending to be defeated and retreating, this goal can be achieved.

But he didn't choose that.

The army of one million people behind them was already heading this way, with food and grass following closely behind.

In marching operations, the role of food and grass is sometimes more important than troop strength.

Although for Lu Yuan, even if there is no food and grass, it will not cause such a thing as a lack of morale in the army.

But he has accumulated a lot of food and grass over the years. There are no natural or man-made disasters in the entire Cangyun County, there are no taxes from the court, and there are no horse thieves from aristocratic families to plunder, and it also has the domain characteristics of increased harvests.

Almost every year is a good harvest year, and the extra grain is countless. In addition to the grain left by the people themselves, Lu Yuan's army also takes time to grow grain, hoarding countless grains, enough for hundreds of years. Wan Dajun has been able to eat and drink without any problem for more than [-] years.

Lu Yuan now has an army of one million.

What he was afraid of was only the top masters of the imperial court.

In Liangzhou, a million-strong army can completely crush them with strength, and he doesn't even bother to do all the bells and whistles.

The so-called raise soldiers for a thousand days, and use them for a while.

This time, it was also the first time that his troops went into battle in a real sense.

He also wanted to see the power of a million-strong army.

"According to the progress, there should be three days before a million troops will arrive. By then, they will not appear in Yuanjiang City, they will directly cross the Yuanjiang River, prepare an ambush, and close the door to beat the dogs!"

Lu Yuan looked at the map and pointed to a mountain official road on the other side of the Yuanjiang River.

There are no shortcuts in marching and fighting, and traveling long distances, only official roads are feasible.

Otherwise, the food and grass cannot keep up, and the three armies are out of touch, and defeat is certain.

Unless it is a blitz victory, once the follow-up is interrupted, it is impossible to win.

This official road is the only way to Yuanjiang River.

The other party sent so many people to take down Yuanjiang, an important county along the river.

Once Yuanjiang is captured, it can radiate to many surrounding areas, and even surround Cangyun from all directions, putting it in a dilemma.

Lu Yuan saw the opponent's intention to use troops, and the opponent was bound to win Yuanjiang.

If it were anyone else, it would have taken at least half a month to send troops from Cangyun to reinforce Yuanjiang.

However, Lu Yuan is not an ordinary person.

Neither are the millions of troops under his command.

With a fifth-level ferocious beast in hand, the marching speed is not low.

Some are even flying beasts, which are faster and can arrive tomorrow.

Cangyun rushed to Yuanjiang in only three days.

This speed is something that the Family Alliance has never dreamed of.

With this information gap, Lu Yuan could easily ambush them in advance on their only path.

When the time comes to attack them and attack them unprepared, the family alliance will soon collapse.

Now, only the Family Alliance is left in Liangzhou. Once the Family Alliance collapses, Liangzhou will also be under his control.

At this moment, Lu Yuan was somewhat looking forward to it. How much prestige would it provide him after taking over Liangzhou?
……

Time flies so fast, three days fly by.

Lu Yuan's million-strong army had already arrived at Yuanjiang, but they did not enter the city.

The Yuanjiang River is one of the top rivers in the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is more than a hundred feet wide and the river is very fast. Let alone ordinary people, even some warriors who cannot stay in the air for a long time will find it difficult to cross the Yuanjiang River.

There is only one bridge on the Yuanjiang River.This is the only place that connects the two places.

Not far from the other side of the opposite bank, there is an ancient city called Tongyuan City.

The Family Alliance is currently relying on this city to hold on, and Gu Changfeng has heard about the Family Alliance and is pressed for time, so he has not chosen to attack the city.

The destination of the Family Alliance this time is this city.

From the perspective of the Family Alliance, as long as they reach Tongyuan City, not only will they completely eliminate Lu Yuan, they can also block Lu Yuan's next offensive and protect most of Liangzhou.

By relying on this city as a stronghold, taking Yuanjiang City and heading westward, Lu Yuan's activity space can be continuously compressed, creating a situation where he can catch turtles in a urn.

On the day the million-strong army arrived, Lu Yuan had already asked the million-strong army to send [-] elite troops to the upper reaches of the Yuanjiang River and crossed the Yuanjiang River overnight.

The remaining hundreds of thousands of troops were all stationed a hundred miles outside Yuanjiang City, waiting for orders.

After crossing the Yuan River, one hundred thousand elites bypassed Tongyuan City and set up an ambush on the official road behind Tongyuan City, waiting for the arrival of the Family Alliance.

At this moment, it is night time.

There is a moon in the night sky, the moonlight is cold, the cold light is shining down, and the cold wind is blowing.

It's winter, and even Liangzhou in the southwest feels a bit cold.

On the deserted official road, there was a sudden sound of iron hoofbeats.

Through the faint moonlight, you can see a large number of people coming towards the official road in the distance.

The sound of iron hooves continued, and this column of people and horses was so numerous that it looked like a giant dragon winding through the mountains.

In the center of the team, there were many luxury carriages.

Sitting inside were all the heads and elders of major aristocratic families in Liangzhou and the heads of martial arts sects.

There are still quite a few of them, and they look like they are moving in full force.

Among these luxurious chariots, there is also the most luxurious one.

Zhao Song was among them.

The interior space of the chariot is very large, like a small room.

In the carriage, there was a table filled with wine and food, and many people were sitting around it.

Even while driving at high speed, no food or drink was left on the table.

Zhao Song sat in the first place. Beside him, there were seven or eight old men who looked quite young.

They are the local snakes in Liangzhou. Except for the King of Liang, they used to be the masters of Liangzhou and became the top tyrants in their respective places.

It is not comparable to the martial arts power of ordinary aristocratic families.

And their respective strength background is also not simple.

Although his own strength is not that of a ninth-grade master, he has a lot of warriors under his sect.

The entire family alliance is also led by these eight people.

But with the arrival of Zhao Song, he became Zhao Song.

Everyone kept toasting and being extremely polite to Zhao Song. They all knew that if they want to solve Liangzhou's predicament now, they can only rely on the Grand Master.

As for how much they would lose in this battle, they didn't care. Anyway, the ones who lost would not be members of their family.

In the end, by capturing Lu Yuan, their strength and territory will actually be improved.

For them, this is a good thing that they can only hope for.

In the eyes of everyone, the Liangzhou Family Alliance is now stronger than ever, and the royal family has sent a great master to back it up.

Even if the opponent has a great master, he is not afraid at all and is almost sure of victory.

More than anything else, they wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to curry favor with Zhao Song and hug him tightly.

At this time, news came from the spies.

It was the news that Zhang Yunian assassinated Lu Yuan a few days ago.

After hearing the report and the rumors, Zhao Song stood up suddenly, his face full of disbelief.

"Are you telling the truth? Are you really the daughter of Tianjian?!"
