At the same time, in the Northern Region.
Bai Feng finally arrived at the Northern Region, but the soldiers he led did not feel tired at all.
After all, the horses they rode had been strengthened by the System. Not only could they run fast, but they also had great stamina.
Naturally, riding this kind of horse would not be very tiring.
"Hahahaha, Sir, I've been waiting for you here for a long time!"
When Cao Ren saw that Bai Feng had arrived, he hurriedly came out to greet him.
Then, Cao Ren said with a bitter smile.
"Sir, you've caused me so much trouble.
"I was leading the troops and training them properly. You, on the other hand, directly recommended me to King Wei to guard the north."
Bai Feng raised his eyebrows.
"Oh? Zixiao, do you want to return to Xuchang? "
Cao Ren immediately shook his head.
"No, it's more comfortable to lead the soldiers here.
"Training the new recruits is simply too torturous.
"Zihe likes this kind of work. Let him do it for a while longer."
Hearing this, Bai Feng immediately smiled faintly and said,
"What are the Qiang people up to recently?"
Cao Ren's face sank slightly as he said in a low voice,
"I was just about to tell you, but you asked first.
"I don't know what's wrong with these Shanyue people. Every one or two days, they'll send troops to attack us.
"But there aren't many of them, so I didn't waste the divine weapon you gave me.
"But the frequency of their attacks is so high that the soldiers don't even have time to rest. They're constantly on edge.
"They don't even fight when they come. When they see the archers shooting, they turn around and run.
"See, we don't even have enough arrows.
"If I hadn't sent the soldiers to pick up the arrows that missed the enemy, I'm afraid we would have run out of arrows by now."
Bai Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Could it have something to do with the five thousand Qiang soldiers that he had stopped?
But that shouldn't be the case. No matter what, they shouldn't be attacking so frequently.
This method was no different from sending them to their deaths.
Moreover, it was completely useless.
Suddenly, Bai Feng's expression froze.
No, that's not right!
These soldiers were not here for him, nor were they here for the village!
They were here for Zhang Ning!
Bai Feng remembered clearly that Zhang Ning had told him on the way here that he had used the Heaven Scroll to kill many people in the Qiang Tribe.
In the end, the Qiang leader was furious and sent countless soldiers to search for him. Thus, Zhang Ning turned around and went to the Di people.
Of course, it was also to find him.
If that was the case, then the possibility of them looking for Zhang Ning was extremely high!
Because when Zhang Ning was protecting the village, he had also used the same Heavenly Roll Lightning Summoning Technique!
These Shanyue people had originally planned to give up. They didn't know who this mysterious killer was.
Now that they had appeared within the borders of the Great Wei Kingdom, they had directly placed all their hatred on the heads of the northern soldiers.
They were certain that the Central Plains people were behind this.
Therefore, their strange behavior was not too much of an exaggeration.
Bai Feng waved his hand and said,
"The next time they come, wait for them to come closer before shooting. They won't be able to dodge in time.
"If this continues, I'm afraid the soldiers will die of exhaustion."
Cao Ren heaved a long sigh.
"Sir, I've thought of this method before, but it won't work!
"Our archers' maximum range is only about 150 paces. Their quality can't compare to that of the Jiangdong soldiers.
"It's already very dangerous to let them come within 150 paces.
"If they get any closer, I'm afraid they'll be able to attack the city directly."
Bai Feng shook his head.
"Zixiao, you're wrong.
"It'll be easier to kill them when they get closer.
"Let's not talk about the archers first. What's the use of the grenades I gave you?
"Although it's a bit of a waste to use them against these small fries, isn't it supposed to be used?
"Also, use them a few more times to traumatize them and make them think that a grenade will be thrown here.
"By then, no matter how much the Shanyue leader hates the Central Plains, he won't dare to send his troops here.
"If this goes on, we'll lose three to four hundred thousand soldiers. Even if we have a million, we won't be able to afford such a loss.
"After all, the Qiang people aren't just fighting with us. They're surrounded by foreign tribes.
"These foreign tribes are all selfish and will inevitably have constant friction. They won't dare to pour all their troops here."
Hearing Bai Feng's words, Cao Ren finally understood.
"Thank you for your guidance, Sir!
"Sigh, if only I'd thought of this earlier. We wouldn't have been tortured for so long."
Bai Feng only smiled faintly and didn't say anything.
To be honest, Cao Ren's commanding ability and defensive ability were the highest in the entire Three Kingdoms period.
However, Cao Ren didn't have much combat experience against the Qiang people. They swam back and forth a few times, which made him extremely nervous.
That led to the current situation.
Moreover, Cao Ren didn't have the habit of using grenades.
He naturally wouldn't have thought of such a tactic.
"Speaking of which, I've brought some good things for the soldiers this time."
"Isn't it cold here? Drink some of this to get rid of the cold. "
Bai Feng smiled faintly and ordered the soldiers to bring out the supply wagons filled with liquor.
The moment the cloth was taken off, Cao Ren's eyes went wide.
Others might not have drunk it, but Cao Ren had?
Cao Ren and Cao Chun were both extremely fond of Bai Feng's liquor. The taste was simply unforgettable.
"Good, good!"
"Sir, you're truly providing timely help, hahahaha!"
"With so much liquor to get rid of the cold, the soldiers won't have to worry about the cold!"
Cao Ren immediately laughed.
"Come, come, come, don't just stand there. Hurry and get the liquor!"
"Everyone, one bowl. You'll be warm after drinking!"
These soldiers weren't residents of the Northern Region. They were more or less not used to the cold here.
Bai Feng had already modified the style of their armor and added something similar to wool to keep them warm by referencing the clothes of the foreign tribes.
However, their bodies couldn't take it if they stood guard in the cold for a long time.
It was already good enough to be able to drink a mouthful of hot soup, but it could only alleviate their anxiety for a while.
With this strong liquor, things would be different!
This liquor could warm the body for a long time after drinking it!
Liquor was definitely an essential weapon in the cold!
Moreover, Bai Feng's liquor had a full sixty degrees of pure liquor.
Bai Feng said in a low voice, "Zihao, this is too much.
"Zixiao, this wine is very strong. Let the soldiers drink less of it."
