After leaving Hu Biao's 80,000 Flying Tiger Army to garrison Xiao Pass, Hu Xiaotian led the remaining 470,000 troops to continue south along the Qingshui River Valley Road, and its final destination was the Guanzhong Basin.

However, the army had only marched south for four days, and a large force of the Condor Army had appeared.

After learning that the river valley in front of him was blocked by the Black Suppressed Condor Army, Tiger Xiaotian suddenly looked surprised, because Xiao Guan had just been breached, and the reaction speed of the Condor Army seemed to be a little too fast.

When he personally came to a place only one kilometer away from the vanguard of the Condor Army to inspect the enemy's situation, he was immediately stunned by the scene in front of him.

I saw that the passage of the river valley in front of me had been completely blocked by the Condor Army, and there were strong bear-man warriors everywhere in sight.

After discovering someone peeping, those bear-man warriors immediately picked up the shields beside them, and then in an instant, formed a dense shield wall, blocking the southbound passage in the river valley.

"Could it be that the Condor Army wants to fight a field battle with my Tiger Army here?"

After seeing the arrangement of the Condor Army on the opposite side, Tiger Xiaotian suddenly looked puzzled.

Xiao Guan's tall city wall couldn't stop his tiger army, and without the advantage of the city wall, he really couldn't figure out why the Condor Army had the confidence to block his army in the wild.

In Tiger Roaring's vision, the Condor Army should have set up a second line of defense in Pingliang, because if his Tiger army wants to enter the Guanzhong region, it must take the Jing River Valley Road, and Pingliang is the only place for the Tiger Army to go south.

If the Tiger Army wanted to enter the Guanzhong Basin, it had to capture Pingliang City, and then continue south along the Jinghe Valley Road.

The Condor Army should take advantage of the geographical advantages of Pingliang City to wait for work, and should not take the initiative to attack the generals.

Haven't they gotten the news that Xiao Guan has been lost?

No, although his tiger army had already broken through the wall of Xiao Pass at that time, it was only the city wall in the north, and the south side of Xiao Pass was still under the control of the Condor Army.

Regardless of whether the Condor Army guarding Xiao Pass decided to defend Xiao Pass at that time, it did not prevent them from sending messengers to report to the rear, so it was impossible for the Condor Army not to know the news that Xiao Pass had been breached.

Could it be that the Condor Army thinks that even if the northern city wall has been lost, the defenders in the city can still hold out until the reinforcements arrive, so the Condor Army in this river valley is actually here to support the reinforcements of Xiao Pass?

No, the enemy can't be brain-dead to that point.

With the advantage of the city wall, Xiao Pass's defenders could not resist the attack of his Tiger army, and after losing the city wall, Xiao Pass's remaining defenders were even less likely to be the opponents of his Tiger army.

With Ning Yuan's intelligence, it was impossible for him not to think of this.

Even if Ning Yuan wasn't here, it would be impossible for his generals not to think of this.

If you can think of it, then why did the Condor Army in front of it appear in the river valley?

Looking at the shield array in the distance, Tiger Xiaotian fell into deep thought, but even if he thought about it, he didn't understand why the Condor Army would let Pingliang City, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, not defend it, and appeared in the valley valley without any natural danger.

Just as Tiger Roaring was racking his brains there to figure out why the Condor Army appeared in the river valley, several Seraphic warriors who were scouts also rushed to Cloud Mountain.

When they told Bai Ze, who was sitting in Yunwu Mountain, that the Tiger Army had moved south, the 400,000 orc army that had been hiding in Cloud Mountain immediately rushed out of Cloud Mountain and directly rushed towards Xiao Pass, which had been captured by the Tiger Army.

Because this battle with the Tiger Army was directly related to the future fate of the two empires, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Ning Yuan directly transferred Bai Ze from the Lost Continent urgently, and asked him to be responsible for commanding the army ambushed in the Cloud Mist Mountain to block the retreat of the Tiger Army.

In order to win this war and leave Tiger Roaring Heaven in Xiao Pass forever, Ning Yuan has already begun to overdraw the national strength of the Condor Empire.

Whether it is an army of 400,000 orcs ambushed in the Cloud Mountains, or a mixed army waiting to fight the enemy to the death in the river valley, the daily consumption of all kinds of supplies is an astronomical amount.

For each additional day of war, the economic production in the rear of the Condor Empire will suffer a certain loss.

Although Shaanxi has achieved a bumper harvest of potatoes this year, it is impossible for Ning Yuan to let the soldiers only eat potatoes every day, after all, marching and fighting is a physical work, and without meat to supplement nutrition, the physical strength of the soldiers cannot keep up.

And not all soldiers can eat vegetarians, the Starstriped Demon Tiger Legion transferred from the Heilongjiang region is all big carnivores.

The Starstriped Demon Tiger has no meat every day, and 10,000 Starstriped Demon Tigers can eat 10,000 sheep in a day, and this is when they do not exercise vigorously.

If you do strenuous exercise, it's 20,000 sheep a day.

If the war continues, this Starstriped Demon Tiger Legion alone will be able to defeat Ning Yuan alive.

As the old saying goes, soldiers and horses go first before they move grain and grass.

The Condor Empire has never lacked powerful armies, whether it is the Terrans, orcs, elves, dwarves, or Warcraft legions, the Condor Empire has never lacked, what they really lack is food to be able to dispatch these legions.

The legions that can eat vegetarian are better, and Ning Yuan can mobilize food from some nearby places, but those guys who only eat meat, Ning Yuan really can't afford to dispatch them.

Whether it is the Griffon Legion in the Griffon Mountains, the Starstriped Demon Tiger Legion in Heilongjiang, or the Druid-domesticated War Bear Legion, although these legions are extremely powerful, they have a common weakness, that is, they cannot fight from a long distance.

There is no other reason, because they only eat meat, and if there is no large amount of meat to provide them near the battlefield, then they can only stay in their nest and eat until they die.

In order to transfer the Starstriped Demon Tiger Legion to the front line to fight this time, Ning Yuan directly recruited a large number of cattle and sheep from the herdsmen of the Mongolian steppe.

Many of these cattle and sheep are breeding sheep and cattle, which are used by herdsmen to expand the size of their herds, and they are the hearts and minds of herdsmen.

However, in order to dispatch the Star Pattern Demon Tiger Legion, Ning Yuan still forcibly recruited them from the herdsmen.

After the loss of these cattle and sheep, livestock production in the Mongolian steppes will certainly be greatly affected.

Although Ning Yuan had promised the herdsmen that they would return a batch of cattle and sheep as soon as possible, it was based on the premise of winning this war and destroying the Linhai Empire.

If he loses, then Ning Yuan will have no choice but to break his promise.

Similar to the situation of the Condor Empire, the Linhai Empire has also been under tremendous logistical pressure after dispatching their Sabertooth Tiger Legion and Griffin Legion.

However, the pressure is mainly focused on logistics rather than the food itself.

The Linhai Empire is a livestock powerhouse, and there is a great treasure in the territory, otherwise they would not be able to raise a saber-toothed tiger army and griffon army of this size.

The reason why Ning Yuan worked hard this time and did not hesitate to overdraft his national strength to fight a life-and-death battle with the Linhai Empire was that the big treasure of the Linhai Empire was also a major inducement.

As long as the Linhai Empire is destroyed and that big treasure is snatched, then not only can the Warcraft Legion of the Condor Empire appear in the Western Regions in the future, but the food pressure problem in their country can also be greatly alleviated.

So when Tiger Roaring Heaven was still setting the initial goal of driving the Condor Army out of the Guanzhong area, Ning Yuan had already made up his mind to Tiger Roaring's lair.

Tiger Roaring Heaven didn't know until now that Ning Yuan had already killed his red eyes, and in order to keep him, Ning Yuan had done everything he could.

The Ning Yuan opposite him was no longer the Ning Yuan who had to think twice about what happened before.

When the Linhai Empire set foot on the land on the east bank of the Yellow River, Ning Yuan had already turned into a fierce beast that loved people, and Ning Yuan would never stop until the Linhai Empire was completely devoured.

Tiger Roaring started this war, although he also took the destruction of the Condor Empire as his ultimate goal, but he knew very well that it was difficult to achieve, so his current goal was to capture the Guanzhong Basin and drive the Condor Army out of the Shaanxi region.

Ning Yuan was different, after deciding to start a war with the Linhai Empire, his goal was to kill Tiger Xiaotian and capture the entire territory of the Linhai Empire, so he could simply give up the lands west of Liupan Mountain.

Due to the difference in strategic goals, it can be said that Tiger Xiaotian has fallen into the disadvantage from the beginning, because his determination is not as big as Ning Yuan, and his heart is not as ruthless as Ning Yuan.

So although this is a war in which both sides will do their best, from the moment Tiger Roaring Tian stepped out of Xiao Pass, he had already lost half of it.
