nLi Yueming considered this very carefully.

nAfter all, in this fantasy world, political marriage was not as simple as it seemed. There was a complete set of logic behind it, so the choice of partner was very important.

nHowever, before Li Yueming could think it through, Su Meng was the first to fall for it.

nEvery day, she followed Li Yueming around like a stalker, following him wherever he went.

nAlthough she didn’t say it out loud, everyone with eyes could see that the most beloved princess of the Western Garrison Liege Lord had fallen under Li Yueming’s handsome face and gentle temperament.

nThis was not strange.

nGeneral Li was one of the top talents in the world. How could those ordinary men compare to him?

nIn the end, Li Yueming still chose to accept Su Meng due to various considerations.

nIn terms of appearance alone, Su Meng was considered unique among the women Li Yueming had met. She was already a top-notch beauty, not to mention that Su Meng had the Western Garrison Liege Lord behind her.

nThus, both parties hit it off and quickly became brothers-in-law.

nWith this relationship, the relationship between the Star Moon Army and the Western Garrison Army was even more unbreakable.

nThe Western Garrison Army once again sent 20,000 troops to Northern Ice

nRiver Town, while the Star Moon Army also sent 50,000 troops to replenish the Western Garrison Army’s losses. The trust between the two sides had increased exponentially.

nBut now, after two to three years of communication, the Star Moon Army and the Western Garrison Army were basically inseparable.

nIt was also during this year.

nThe emperor led a million troops from Tiger Subdue Pass to the east, preparing to annihilate the Star Moon Army of Northern Ice River Town.

nThis strategic goal was within everyone’s expectations.

nThe Western Garrison Army was a troop with a military spirit. They also occupied the natural barrier of the Western Garrison Pass. Even the Qin army had spent so many years but could not take it down. As long as the Zhou

nDynasty was not stupid, they would definitely not choose to attack the Western Garrison Army first.

nThe Starmoon Troop’s headquarters was located in North Glacier Town.

nAlthough it was easy to defend and difficult to attack, the lower reaches of North Glacier Town were plains formed by river water.

nThere are so many troops on the plains that can be arranged into formations, so there are places that can allow a large number of soldiers to be stationed.

nThe Zhou Dynasty had just experienced a war and had yet to fully recover. Therefore, the million troops announced to the public this time were actually exaggerated.

nThe emperor’s army, including the logistics and supplies, only numbered 800,000.

n100,000 of them were slave soldiers and did not have much combat power.

nThere were only 700,000 real warriors who could fight.

nOf these 700,000 soldiers, 100,000 were responsible for transporting rations, while the remaining 300,000 were ordinary soldiers. Only 300,000 of them were elites with military souls.

nOf course, this 300,000 yuan was not to be underestimated.

nAlthough there weren’t many of them, they were all elites.

nBack then, the Qin army’s attack was extremely swift and fierce, and the Great Zhou, who had been passively fighting, appeared to be in a hurry. A large number of elites scattered throughout the country had not had the time to be mobilized, and the Qin army had already left after burning, killing, and looting.

nIt made many of the Royal Guards feel as if they were at a loss.

nThis expedition against the Star Moon Army was initiated by the emperor, so the soldiers were naturally well-prepared.

nIn terms of military strength.

nEven if the Star Moon Army, the Northern Army, and the Western Army joined forces, the number of troops was less than half of the Great Zhou Army.

nAfter several years of adjustment, the number of Star and Moon Army had reached 250,000, while the Northern Army was only a remnant with less than 100,000 soldiers. With the aid of the Western Army, there were less than 500,000 soldiers.

nBesides, both the Northern Garrison Army and the Starlink Army were ordinary soldiers, and only 120 ,ooo soldiers of the Western Garrison Army possessed the Army Soul. Compared to the 300,000 elite troops of the Zhou Dynasty that possessed the military soul, they were three fifths smaller.

nOf course, it was not impossible to fight this war.

nAfter all, the Star-Moon Troop had the advantage of geographical location and manpower. Northern Glacier Town was Li Yueming’s lair, so there was no need to transport any rations from other places. This advantage was something that the Royal Court troops could not compare to.

nThe mighty Royal Coalition Army was heading towards Northern Glacier Town. To be honest, when they saw the towering city walls and well-equipped troops, they were shocked.

nAll the higher-ups of the Royal Coalition Army were dumbfounded.

nWhat was going on?

nHow could a large city that was comparable to an important town in the Central Plains appear in this godforsaken place?

nThere were also generals who were proficient in military affairs.

nLooking at the high city walls of Northern Glacier Town, he involuntarily cried out, “You call this a town? This could already be considered a city, right?”

nIn the crowd, an old general said in a daze, ‘”‘Thirty years ago, when I was young, I once traveled to the border of the Great Zhou Dynasty. At that time, I went to this cold northern border, but I had never seen such a vast city here. Li Yueming is really a monster. He was able to build such a huge city in less than twenty years. It’s really unbelievable…”

nThe others nodded repeatedly and echoed,”lndeed, to be able to make such terrifying achievements in such a short period of time, if such a monster is not eliminated as soon as possible, my Great Zhou will probably be unable to sleep in the future!”

nAll the royal armored soldiers who had brought the mighty allied army into the northern region were amazed by the magnificence of Northern Ice River Town. Their fear of Li Yueming and the Star-Moon Army grew stronger.

nHow long had it been?

nLi Yueming had already grown from an unremarkable scion of an aristocratic family to the leader of an army. A few years ago, he had seized the opportunity to unite the entire northern army to rebel and ruthlessly stomp on the head of the Great Zhou.

nIf they could not suppress it this time, it would not be long before the fate of the entire state would be threatened and it would be difficult to maintain.

nThe alliance army formed by the dukes and the Zhou royal family was stationed fifty miles away from North Ice River Town.

nThe army had traveled a long distance, so they naturally couldn’t fight immediately.

nHe had to rest for a while and grasp enough information before he could launch an attack according to the actual situation.

nAfter the alliance army rested for five days, they launched an attack on Northern Glacier Town on the morning of the sixth day.

nThe soldiers of Northern Ice River Town naturally did not want to be outdone and launched a counterattack.

nThe two sides fought by the Northern Ice River. Millions of troops fought until the sky turned dark and rivers of blood flowed…Relying on the advantage of the city wall, the Starmoon Troop did not suffer too much in the first round.

nThe alliance army suddenly realized that Northern Ice River Town, after joining forces with the Western Garrison Army, was already able to contend with the Wang Ji City’s troops. Although there was still a huge gap, it would not be destroyed at a single touch.

nThis discovery made the upper echelons of the alliance army even more cautious.

nThe attacks in the next few days became more and more steady.

nIn terms of marching and fighting, those in strong positions should carry out the kingly way.

nIn a head-on clash, the Starmoon Troop, which was small in number, did not have a reserve team, while the Royal Guards could frequently change their reserves.

nUnder such circumstances, the Star Moon Army would definitely be defeated. Only the weaker ones would need to use schemes and tricks to make up for the difference in strength when they were unable to face the enemy head-on. As the powerful capital region army, the alliance army had twice the number of soldiers in North Glacier Town.

nUnder such circumstances, all the other strategies that could not be put on the table could be put aside. The alliance army only needed to crush the Star Moon Army with their raw strength.

nAs expected, the alliance leader’s judgment was right.

nAs the allied forces took turns to deplete their energy, the Starmoon Troop’s combat power was declining rapidly.

nHalf a month later, the alliance army organized a large-scale attack.

nThe Star Moon Army, the Northern Army, and the Western Army had all suffered great losses due to the high-intensity war. In this large-scale attack, tens of thousands of soldiers had even climbed up the walls of Northern Ice River Town.

nThey had almost won the war.

nAlthough they were still chased off the city walls, this battle had caused some damage to the city walls of Northern Glacier Town.

nThe alliance army was overjoyed.

nNorthern Ice River Town had only been established for a short period of time.

nAlthough the city walls were built very thick and heavy, in order to speed up the construction, they did not completely implement the traditional wall construction method. Instead, they used a new casting method.

nThis method could allow the construction of the Northern Glacier Town’s city walls to be done quickly, but the strength of the city walls was still lacking.

nIn a battle of normal intensity, the walls of Northern Glacier Town

n
