Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1587: Chapter 498: Ice Abyss Provisions, Beishuo Deployment, Xia Army Movements_3

Twenty-five thousand people, even if Xia Chuan brings over the entire sixty thousand troops from East River City, the strength is only more than double his, and if he can’t defend it, Yang Jian would have lived in vain for over a century.

“Ying’er, take a trip to Wuchuan Town and transmit my orders to Lord Qin Feng to ensure the defense of the East Valley Camp. Of course, the battle situation changes in an instant. If we can defeat those forty thousand troops and attack inside and out of Jinshan Town to destroy Yuwen Dao’s entire right flank, even better…”

Yang Ying, who had just returned from Dongchuan, was ordered to go to Wuchuan Town again.

This is also unavoidable, as in such large-scale battles, timely communication of information is paramount. The Cold Resistance Level is too slow, and unforeseen incidents along the way could complicate matters. It’s one thing if intercepted by the enemy, but if someone uses some kind of trick against us, the consequences could be dire.

Xianyang Level can fly in the sky, the speed concerns are eliminated, it’s safe and they can observe enemy army movements along the way, making them ideal for information relay during non-war times.

Just after Yang Ying left, a shadow suddenly flashed in from outside the hall.

“Brother, Lu Yang from East Ridge has fallen into the trap…”

The person who entered was none other than Yang Fa, who had just returned from East Ridge.

Sitting above, Yang Jian immediately showed a touch of brightness in his eyes upon hearing the news.

After entering the hall, Yang Fa had a smile on his face and said, “Lu Yang indeed has disloyal intentions. I promised him that as long as East Ridge can jointly defeat Great Xia with our town this time, the entire Jingxi District will be his in the future. Initially, he hesitated, but eventually, he agreed.”

Yang Zhun showed no reaction, but the third brother Yang Jian, who had been managing Beishuo on his behalf for years, immediately revealed a touch of frost in his eyes, snorted coldly, and said, “Last year when Great Xia made trouble in East Ridge, we helped him out and invited him to work in our town, but he refused. From then I saw that this man has disloyal intentions, and indeed!”

Yang Fa, also having experienced it firsthand, immediately nodded to his third brother’s words, showing a bit of displeasure on his face but soon shook his head and said, “Now is the time to seek help, a little sweet cake will do him no harm.”

After speaking, he looked at Yang Zhun and continued, “East Ridge does have some strength, Lu Yang actually can produce over five thousand Cold Resistance Level troops. I asked him to gather military supplies and transport them to Linya and Zhongyang, and also asked him to personally lead five thousand troops to merge with our five thousand Jingxi defenders to form a combined army to resist Great Xia, he agreed to all. When I returned, East Ridge was already gathering its army.”

Everyone in the hall showed slight encouragement; here came another five thousand troops.

However, Yang Fa continued, after he finished talking about East Ridge, he immediately continued, “When I returned, I specifically looked at the situation in Dongchuan and found that Mu Longhe’s division with a ten thousand army has already westward to Zhongyang…”

West to Zhongyang?

Yang Zhun and Yang Jian, including everyone else in the hall, bowed their heads at the map, and their expressions froze instantly.

They had just speculated that the Xia Army from Dongchuan Camp would definitely attack Baimu next, cooperating with Luo Yuan and Yuwen Dao’s divisions to open up the supply line.

Mu Longhe’s ten thousand troops didn’t go south but went west to attack Zhongyang?

And as soon as Yang Fa finished speaking, the confusion on everyone’s face disappeared completely, leaving them totally stunned.

“After Mu Longhe’s division went west, Xia Chuan personally led forty thousand allies into Dongchuan Camp, leaving only ten thousand Defensive Army to guard, while thirty thousand elite allies have already moved south heading towards Baimu Camp.”

“This… this…”

The stunned expression on an elder’s face in the hall slowly recovered, followed by a face full of incredibility, stubbornly pointing at the map, stuttering for a long time without getting the words out.

“This is outrageous, simply outrageous, Xia Chuan really disregards Beishuo as nothing. He even splits a ten thousand to attack Zhongyang, yet thinks thirty thousand allies can overwhelm Beishuo Town, arrogant to the extreme, arrogant to the extreme!”

Yang Jian suddenly stood up, his face full of anger, clearly feeling underestimated.

Even Yang Zhun at the top showed a much darker expression.
