is, he still comforted himself that these were small sums of money. It was better to spend some money than lose everything. If Dantang Jingzhi relied on him, the support of all scholars in the world w...Chapter 1629: Made a Fortune

Over the past few hours, this group of people has completely transformed into snowmen, covered in white snow and blending seamlessly with their surroundings. From a distance, it's nearly impossible to tell them apart from the landscape.

Suddenly, a figure moved.

That figure leaned its head, pressing its ear to the cold ground.

Because the temperature had been steadily warming, melting the snow on the ground, it was muddy at that time.

The mud plastered on her face accentuated the bone-chilling coldness.

But he didn't care at all. He tilted his head and pressed his ear to the ground, listening carefully for a while before speaking to the snowman beside him: "General, there's movement."

Su Pingbei was invigorated.

We received word from the Guzha tribe that the largest contingent of Liao military supplies will be passing through here today. These supplies include the most urgently needed food and equipment for the Liao army. If we can successfully intercept them, the Liao army's logistics will immediately fall into a perilous situation.

So Su Pingbei took the risk and acted.

He personally led people to guard here for a full hour, just when his patience was about to be exhausted, good news finally arrived.

"About how many people" Su Pingbei whispered.

The harsh conditions of the frontier, combined with the winter snowstorm, left everyone, including Su Pingbei, looking disheveled.

He was covered in dust and grime, his lips and face were already bright red from the cold. This was relatively mild; more seriously, his fingers and toes had already developed frostbite. If this wasn't treated immediately, it could lead to amputation.

But while on campaign, they could not even guarantee their survival, let alone access to medical care.

In just this short time passing through the border, dozens of soldiers out of a thousand have already developed frostbite.

Su Pingbei's condition was good, but his lips were chapped. Taking advantage of the opportunity to speak, he licked his dry lips. Thin streaks of blood seeped from the cracked lip lines, making his mouth taste salty and fishy.

Even if they are thirsty, they cannot eat snow directly.

Because melting snow further lowers body temperature, several soldiers have already fallen ill. Since they are currently on a reconnaissance mission and cannot build a fire, Su Pingbei is now relying entirely on willpower to keep going.

The man lay down and listened intently for a moment, then said: "I can't be sure of the exact number, but there are definitely over three thousand soldiers. And the sound of horses' hooves and wheels is very muffled, indicating that they are carrying a heavy load."

Su Pingbei's eyes lit up and she said, "Come here."

Two soldiers in the ranks immediately raised their heads to look at Su Pingbei.

"Go back at once and tell your brothers to prepare for battle."

Two soldiers, taking orders, quietly crept down the slope and then sprinted toward the direction of their camp.

Although the snow covering the ground made it extremely difficult for them to march, it also greatly helped Su Pingbei and his men conceal their presence.

Several scouts from the Liao army ran past them at close range, but they didn't notice them.

Not until Su Pingbei personally saw the endless column of supply troops at the horizon's end did he realize their true scale.

On either side of the unit stood cavalry guards, protecting a convoy that stretched like a long dragon in the center.

The horses strained as they pulled the carts, each laden with mounds of supplies and fodder.

At a rough estimate, there were about four thousand people. The supplies they were escorted with numbered at least over two thousand carriages.

Even with Su Pingbei mentally prepared beforehand, the sight was so grand that he couldn't help but feel excited.
