    Scout: "The opponent has 15,000 people in total. Among them, 5,000 are in logistics, and only 10,000 are available for battle."

    "Fifteen thousand is not a lot." Yue Chen murmured softly, "Is he a field army or an enemy army?"

    The scout said: "They are flying the banners of the three cities of Changyang, Dongping and Nanhe, like a local army."

    Local troops?

    Yue Chen smiled lightly.

    The fighting power of the local troops is far inferior to that of the field army.

    The field army has been fighting for many years, and the personal strength and tacit understanding of cooperation are not comparable to the enemy troops.

    Yue Chen shouted in a deep voice: "Changyang City is the place we must pass to go to the imperial capital. Once we let them escape back to the city and defend it, we will be in trouble."

    In the world of ice and snow, siege is originally a taboo.

    Yue Chen didn't have many troops, so it was undoubtedly a dream to attack a city with 15,000 people with 2,000 people.

    Immediately, Yue Chen said to the generals: "What do you think?"

    Deng Ai said: "What Your Highness said is very true. I will march immediately to prevent them from returning to Changyang City. However, the soldiers will have to work hard."

    Yue Chen said to the scouts: "Don't tell me how far it is, I'll just ask you, how many miles are they from us, and how many miles are they from Changyang City?"

    The scout said: "It's thirty miles away from us, and it's also the same distance from Changyang City."

    Thirty miles?

    In a world of ice and snow, you can only walk about three kilometers in an hour.

    Yue Chen needs to walk thirty miles a day to stop them from entering the city before they reach Changyang City.

    Although the heavy snow has stopped now, the roads are heavily covered with snow. Long-term walking is a huge test for physical strength and perseverance.

    Yue Chen shouted in a deep voice: "Chen Qianqian's caravan has arrived?"

    Fazheng pointed to the small valley in front of him and said, "There they are."

    "Go!" Yue Chen shouted in a deep voice.

    Yue Chen led a small group of troops forward. After entering the small valley, Yue Chen saw Chen Qianqian riding on horseback and wrapped in a white plush cloak.

    At this moment, Chen Qianqian, with straight bangs, has a delicate and fair face, and her exquisite facial features reveal a beautiful face.

    In this world of ice and snow, Chen Qianqian, dressed in white, is as beautiful and clean as a lotus flower in the snow.

    There are dozens of carriages parked in the valley.

    After seeing Yue Chen, Chen Qianqian took the initiative to ride forward, cupped his hands on the horse's back and said: "After receiving the news from His Highness, the little girl prepared all night. If you still delay His Highness' important affairs, Your Highness, please forgive me."

    Yue Chen bowed his hand in return and said to Chen Qianqian: "Thank you, you came at the right place. Did you bring everything I wanted?"

    Chen Qianqian said: "There are a total of 3,000 pairs of leather boots, all of which are specially made with fleece. There are also 3,000 pieces of white bearskin cloaks, all of which are thickened"

    These are the anti-cold supplies Yue Chen prepared for the soldiers.

    Yue Chen said: "How much is the total?"

    Chen Qianqian stared straight at Yue Chen, her eyes fluttered, and she said with a smile: "Your Highness, do you want to accept the price at the market price?"

    The smile was so beautiful and clean that Yue Chen couldn't help but look at it for a few more seconds.

    Immediately Yue Chen said: "You can give me a discount."

    Chen Qianqian rolled her eyes and said, "Isn't that the long-distance shipping fee? We spent three days and three nights in the ice and snow for the freight of more than ten cars. It took sixty people, so it cost two hundred.  Two silver coins."

    Yue Chen said: "Give it a little cheaper"

    Chen Qianqian: ""

    Immediately afterwards, Chen Qianqian smiled again and said: "The little girl said that if His Highness has no money, these can be given to His HighnessAs long as you ask, we will not take any money."

    "Thenforget it." Yue Chen said, "Tell me, how much?"

    Chen Qianqian showed a smug smile, and said: "Since His Highness insists on buying at the market price, the little girl will not force it. The leather boots are five taels of silver a pair, and the cloak is thirty taels of silver. If you don't count the freight, the total is one hundred and five thousand."  two.

    The little girl will give you a discount, so let's count it as one hundred thousand taels.  "

    "So expensive?" Yue Chen's eyes widened.

    I have obtained a lot of spoils, and I have also harvested a lot of silver from the corpses of the enemies.

    Plus the income from the Kezhou City Treasury.

    It was almost one hundred thousand taels of silver.

    Do you want to throw it all in now?

      This is just a material to keep out the cold.

    Chen Qianqian smiled and said: "This is still the cost price. If it is really based on the market price, it will be at least 150,000 taels. Only Your Highness, you are so generous that you even wear leather boots and cloaks for the soldiers.

    As far as the little girl knows, other armies are made of cotton.

    The price of cotton is less than one tenth, and it can be bought anywhere.  "

    Yue Chen sighed: "There is no way, the cotton is easy to get wet in the ice and snow."

    Cotton can indeed keep out the cold, but Yue Chen's army often walks in the ice and snow, and often lies in ambush in the snow.

    Once the cotton is soaked, not only can it not keep warm, but it will also make the soldiers colder.

    After every ambush, you have to change into a padded jacket.

    Now that there is a leather cloak, you can wear a padded jacket and armor inside, and a cloak outside, so you are not afraid of snow and water.

    In addition, the most important thing is the leather boots.

    When walking in snow, the feet suffer the most, and chilblains are easy to develop.

    Cotton shoes will get soaked after walking for an hour.

    With leather boots, you can finally protect your feet.

    At the same time, Yue Chen also knew why other armies were not equipped with leather clothes.

    Because, it is too expensive.

    I only have three thousand sets, so I need one hundred thousand taels of silver.

    Hongguo has millions of troops, and if each of them has a set, they can't afford it at all.

    After paying all the money to Chen Qianqian, Yue Chen became ashamed again.

    After bidding farewell to Chen Qianqian, Yue Chen asked people to pull these supplies out of the valley and distribute them among the soldiers.

    The excess materials are collected into the system.

    The soldiers were naturally overjoyed when they received the leather clothes.

    "Soldiers" Yue Chen stood on the hillside, facing the howling north wind, and shouted loudly, "You will have to work hard for the next two days, but this king promises that there will be enough wine and meat along the way.

    When we reach Changyang City, we will go to the city to enjoy it.

    But before that, we must cheer up.

    It is necessary to catch up with the enemy within two days, and those who disobey the order will be killed!  "

    In the end, Yue Chen became murderous.

    This is a very critical battle. I must hurry up and cross Changyang City as soon as possible.

    Once blocked by Changyang City, unable to kill to the imperial capital in time, it will affect Yue Chen's follow-up plan.

    It will even hinder the plan to improve the strength.

    If anyone really dares to delay the progress of the troops, Yue Chen will really kill people and use his blood to motivate the soldiers to move forward.

    A veteran grinned and said, "Your Highness, we have never worn the leather boots you gave us in our entire lives? Don't worry, we are worthy of these boots."

    The snow on the road is very deep, and every step is very difficult.

    During the march, Yue Chen also began to study the sled, which is a sharp tool for walking in the snow.

    A day later, Yue Chen stepped on the sled and shuttled quickly in the snow like an elf, and everyone was dumbfounded.

    Yue Chen stopped in front of the generals and said with a smile, "What do you think?"

    Fazheng exclaimed: "With this sharp weapon, the heavy snow will not only not be an obstacle, but a help, Your Highness is wise." (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
