Where did these five thousand heavy cavalry suddenly come from?

Are they truly soldiers under North Prince?

Seeing Chen Wanrong holding the intelligence report yet remaining silent, Lin Wanyun spoke up, “Palace Master, could those heavy cavalry be Barbarian Tribe members in disguise? Perhaps Yan County has already been captured, and they are masquerading as North Prince’s soldiers, intending to lure the women of North Prince Mansion into Yan County, into the Barbarian Tribe’s royal court.”

Any normal person, upon learning of the arrival of heavy cavalry to Anping City, would naturally think these were Barbarian Tribe members in disguise.

That’s because North City doesn’t have heavy cavalry at all, and it simply can’t afford to maintain such a large number of them—this is a force that has appeared out of nowhere.

Could this heavy cavalry be deployed by the royal court for North Prince?

This is even more improbable. In order to defend against the Barbarian Tribe moving southward, the court is only willing to deploy seventy thousand troops northward, so how could they possibly send heavy cavalry to North Prince, let alone five thousand of them?

The twenty thousand heavy cavalry of the Great Xia Dynasty are the sharpest sword in the hands of Sum Emperor, and he would absolutely not use such a weapon for national defense at this time.

After hearing Lin Wanyun’s words, Chen Wanrong came back to her senses. With a calm expression, she put down the intelligence report and said softly, “If the Barbarian Tribe wants to deceive women of North Prince to Yan County, there’s no need to send so many heavy cavalry to Anping City, at most two thousand cavalry would be enough.”

Currently, there are five thousand heavy cavalry stationed outside Anping City. Let’s not even discuss whether the Barbarian Tribe of the North Land can forge so much armor needed by such a large cavalry. Even if the Barbarian Tribe truly had five thousand heavy cavalry, they wouldn’t dispatch such an important force to this location just to deceive a woman from the Prince’s Mansion.

This clearly doesn’t make sense.

This whole affair is shrouded in mystery from beginning to end.

Chen Wanrong continued, “Once we return to Yan County, we will know what this is all about.”

Upon hearing Chen Wanrong’s words, Lin Wanyun expressed her concerns, “Palace Master, we don’t yet know if there is deceit with these five thousand heavy cavalry. If we simply follow the people of North Prince Mansion northward, I fear there may be danger.”

Chen Wanrong, with an expressionless face, said, “If there is danger, we will leave the convoy at the first opportunity. Five thousand heavy cavalry can’t hold us back.”

Lin Wanyun thought for a moment, feeling there was some truth to this. It indeed seemed unlikely that five thousand heavy cavalry could detain a Grandmaster, especially the Palace Master of Mysterious Moon Palace.

Lin Wanyun then said, “I understand, I’ll have someone pack our luggage right away.”

By evening.

The sun was gradually setting, the sky filled with evening clouds of various shapes, as a massive convoy slowly made its way out of Anping City.

The common folk of Anping City had already heard the news of North Prince slaughtering two hundred thousand of the Barbarian Tribe and capturing another hundred thousand.

At first, the common folk didn’t believe it, as the achievement seemed too exaggerated. Moreover, their prince was deemed incompetent, and the military forces of North City were also not impressive.

The limited military forces of North City capable of slaughtering two hundred thousand from the Barbarian Tribe? Even in dreams that didn’t happen!

However, when the common folk saw the convoy of the Prince’s Mansion really leaving Anping City, preparing to head north, they suddenly felt that North Prince must have achieved great military success in Yan County.

Even if they hadn’t slaughtered two hundred thousand of the Barbarian Tribe, they likely held off the Barbarian Tribe’s attack, or perhaps the Barbarian Tribe’s forces had already left North City. Otherwise, how could the Queen and the others possibly head north at this time?

The common people who had followed North Prince Mansion south were now again picking up their belongings and following North Prince Mansion northward.

In the eyes of the common folk, North Prince wouldn’t allow his women to be in danger. Since the Queen was heading north, it was certain that the crisis in North City had been resolved.

As for slaying two hundred thousand of the Barbarian Tribe and capturing another hundred thousand—that was something to be taken with a pinch of salt and enjoyed as a pleasant fiction.
