The collapse of the Thirteen-Nation Coalition made the Thirteen-Nation Commander-in-Chief, Master Xingchen, extremely frustrated, and he led his army back to the Rock Country in dejection.

At this time, Hu Biao and Bei Bei had already learned about the collapse of the Thirteen-Nation Alliance, so they did not continue to advance into other countries.

Both Hu Biao and Bei Bei were clearly aware that it would be most disadvantageous for this isolated army of 200,000 men if they got stuck in a tangled confrontation.

Thus, the 200,000-strong army began to cross mountains and rivers, disappearing from the sight of spies from the thirteen countries, and quietly approached the border of the Shenzhu Kingdom.

When the national teacher Xingchen learned that the Shenzhu Kingdom's mere 200,000 troops had destroyed his plan, he became extremely angry and vowed to destroy this isolated army.

Soon, the news that the 200,000-strong army had disappeared came back, making the national teacher Xingchen so angry that his teeth were itching.

Although the 200,000 troops led by Hu Biao and Bei Bei were very cautious, they were often attacked and ambushed by the enemy.

This also caused a lot of casualties in the army led by Hu Biao and Bei Bei. One day the army came to the edge of a desert. After crossing the desert, there was a grassland. After crossing the grassland, they reached the side of the Yudai River. After crossing the Yudai River, they entered the border of the Shenzhu Kingdom.

The desert was extremely hot, and the army was advancing exhaustedly. At this moment, several eagles cried overhead.

Beibei looked up and said loudly, "We have been discovered. All troops, be on alert."

Soon, dozens of scouts began to patrol the surroundings for abnormal situations, and the army entered the desert.

The desert terrain is undulating, and soldiers need to be vigilant against possible quicksand and desert traps at all times.

Soldiers with experience in desert marching are leading the way. They need to rely on their intuition and experience to determine the correct direction.

As time went on, the temperature gradually rose and the heat waves in the desert became unbearable.

Sweat kept pouring down the soldiers' bodies, but they did not dare to stop to rest because a sandstorm in the desert might come at any time.

When a sandstorm comes, visibility is extremely low and the soldiers have to hold on to each other's shoulders tightly to avoid being blown away by the wind and sand.

Water is the most scarce resource during desert marches. Soldiers ration water every day. When passing an oasis, the soldiers will happily replenish water.

At night, the temperature in the desert dropped sharply, and the soldiers lit a campfire to keep warm and cook dinner.

The desert march did not encounter any harassment or ambush from the enemy, but several eagles kept circling overhead. The soldiers shot and killed a few of them, but a few more would appear soon.

After three days of desert marching, they will be able to get out of the desert tomorrow. At this time, Hu Biao, Bei Bei and a group of generals gathered together to discuss the possible dangers they might encounter.

Beibei said worriedly, "If we encounter an attack or ambush in the desert, the enemy must not be prepared and can only annoy us with small-scale harassment. But now we have a smooth journey and have not encountered any enemies. I am worried that a major war may occur when we leave the desert and enter the grassland."

Hu Biao and the other generals all agreed with Beibei's judgment. Just look at the eagles following overhead to see the answer.

"So what should we do?" a general asked

Beibei shook his head and said, "Now we can only take one step at a time and see what happens. We will deal with it as it comes."

The generals felt helpless and went back to their tents to rest.

The next day, the army continued to advance, and half a day later, sparse dry grass appeared on the ground.

The entire army stopped advancing here, and then hundreds of scouts launched reconnaissance towards the grassland ahead.

The army set up camp on the spot, rested and ate well, replenished their energy, and then faced the possible battle with all their strength.

In the evening, the scout teams that were sent out came back one after another, and they all discovered endless tents appearing a hundred miles away, with an estimated number of millions of troops.

After hearing the scout's report, Bei Bei muttered to himself, "Damn it! After going around in circles, we encountered a million soldiers. This battle cannot be fought!"

Soon, Hu Biao and the generals came to Bei Bei's tent. Everyone looked unhappy. Now all the generals knew that there were a million troops ahead, while they only had 200,000 troops.

"Military Advisor, you are so resourceful. How should we deal with this?" a general asked impatiently.

Hu Biao also nodded repeatedly and looked at Bei Bei expectantly.

Beibei is so depressed! How do I know how to deal with it?

So, Beibei pretended to be in deep thought, but he kept complaining in his heart. He greeted Princess Isa's grandfather, grandmother, father, mother, and even Hubiao's brother, sister, and younger brother.

Beibei regrets so much! How could he get involved with Princess Isa? Now it's all over. Two hundred thousand versus one million, a five-fold gap. If everyone else spits on us, we'll be drowned!

After complaining for a while, Beibei gradually calmed down and said after a long while: "Hu Biao! This battle is not going to be easy!"

Beibei no longer called Hu Biao the marshal. Hu Biao nodded, not caring about Beibei's title, and continued to listen to what Beibei said.

"You, you, you..." Beibei pointed at the twenty generals and said, "You dig trenches behind us."

Then, Beibei took out a piece of paper and drew a trench pattern with length, width and height on it.

After the generals nodded in confirmation, Bei Bei took out another piece of paper and drew a fortress, handed it to Hu Biao and said, "Hu Biao, you take the others to build this."

After Hu Biao took the drawings, he looked at them, nodded, and went to make the arrangements without asking any further questions.

Soon, 200,000 cavalrymen became engineers and began to dig pits and build fortresses.

Under pressure from millions of enemy troops, all the engineering projects were completed one day later.

Beibei checked all the items and also checked the traps in the trenches.

The next morning, the rumbling sound of horse hooves woke Beibei from his sleep. Beibei jumped up and stood at the door of the big tent, looking out at the scene of flying sand and rocks and galloping horses in the distance.

Looking at the endless mass of troops, Beibei became a little nervous and shouted, "Quickly retreat and enter the fortress behind."

Soon, the 200,000-strong army followed the road signs and quickly entered the fortress behind them.
