The sky was just starting to brighten, groups of Xianbei People s were supporting the elderly and children as they rushed towards the Tanhan Shan. Most of them looked tired and worn, and had obviously come from far away in the middle of the night, but their eyes were full of dignity and piety. To the Xianbei People, every time the Heaven's Altar was held, it was a solemn and solemn festival, as well as a memory of his ancestors and King Tan Shihuai.
When the sun rose, the crowd passed by Race Yard Barracks, many of them noticing the Chinese flag hanging in the military camp, feeling extremely curious. At this time, someone in the crowd whispered about the battle that happened by the Chou Shui River the day before yesterday. He described the cruelty and brutality of the Han people in detail, and also described the actions of the King and King Lian in detail.
Bu Dugen stood on top of the high watchtower, looking at the heads of the people in the distance, his mouth revealed a weird smile.
"Prince Xian of the Right, I'll ask you to come over for a discussion."
was awakened from his contemplation by a call from behind him. He frowned in displeasure, turned around, and looked at the approaching person, then turned around and walked down the watchtower.
"Murong Qi, is the Prince Zuo Xian already here?"
"Reporting to Prince Xian of the Right, Prince Zuo Xian has just arrived at my place." Murong Qi replied respectfully. He was Kebineng's commander in chief, leading the five thousand strongest and most elite guards under Kebineng's command.
Just as Bu Dugen was about to follow them, he turned his head and saw a robust man running towards him from the camp's main entrance. He immediately waved his hand and said, "Go back first, I'll be right there."
Murong Qi nodded, then turned and walked towards the King's Account.
"Right Sage King, everything has been completed!" The stout man walked up to him and bowed as he reported in a low voice.
Bu Dugen asked cautiously. "Wu Li, will anyone notice that they are this king's people?"
"Do not worry, Prince Xian of the Right, all of them are from the Su Li Tribe. They are absolutely reliable!"
"Well done! Wu Li, you are this king's most favored Centurion. After this matter is over, this king will bestow you a 1000 mu worth of land. "
"Thank you, your majesty!" Wu Li quickly knelt down on one knee to express his gratitude. With a pasture, he could quickly strengthen his tribe, and maybe in a few years, he could become a king of his tribe.
"Get up. What are the Chinese doing? "
"They have been in the camp since the day before yesterday. Oh right, Gongsun Xu seemed to have observed for a long time from the watchtower of Race Yard Barracks. "
"Gongsun Xu is actually still in the army camp? This is a bit strange. Continue monitoring them and report back if anything happens! "
"Here!"
When Bu Dugen walked into the tent, he was asking about Su Li's injuries.
Su Li's face was still very pale. He listlessly sat on the ground, his entire body wrapped in a thick blanket. Seeing Bu Dugen come in, he only slightly nodded his head.
Bu Dugen greeted Su Li briefly, then walked to the opposite side and sat down.
Kebineng frowned and asked: "Su Li is temporarily unable to go on stage to kill the enemy. Bu Dugen, what do you think?"
"It's fine if the Prince Zuo Xian does not go up, but I don't need to worry!" Bu Dugen sneered: "He Lian's forces were originally weaker than ours, and now that people's hearts are against us, if he dared to attack first, he will definitely suffer a crushing defeat! As long as Little Wang stands up at the Rites of Heavenly Worship to expose the crimes of Lian Lian, the commoners will definitely support him and follow him in denouncing Lian Lian! "At that time, even if Lian Lian still wants to fight back at death's door, I'm afraid not many people will be willing to follow him!"
Su Li coldly snorted, extremely dissatisfied with the first sentence that Bu Dugen had said.
So it turned out that He Lian had prepared to kill Kebineng, Bu Dugen and Su Li during the Rites of Heavenly Worship, and the three of them were plotting against him at the same time! However, Kebineng only wanted to kick He Lian out first, and never thought of killing him on the spot. Kebineng's biggest dream was to truly unite the different fresh and low clans and become the second King Tan Shihuai.
Kebineng pondered for a moment, then asked: What if we fight in a desperate counterattack with Lian Lian's unwillingness to lose, what's the probability of winning?
"At least seventy percent!" Bu Dugen smiled confidently: "He Lian never expected that we would already be able to completely control over ten thousand of his subordinates! If these people were to turn the tables on us at the most critical moment, we will definitely die! "
"You can't!" Kebineng shook his head: "Unless absolutely necessary, we must not let He Lian die in Tanhan Shan!"
Kebineng cared about his own reputation the most. He Lian would definitely die, but he definitely would not die in his hands, much less in Tanhan Shan.
"Don't worry, Little Wang. We will only make our move against He Lian if you give us the order personally." Bu Dugen lowered his head and made a promise, a ruthless look flashing past his eyes.
Kebineng nodded in satisfaction, stroked his beard and asked: "Are there any movements in Thief Gongsun?"
When Su Li heard the four words "Thief Gongsun", fire almost spouted out of his eyes as he clenched his fists tightly.
"According to the reports of the scouts, Thief Gongsun stayed at the watchtower for a long time not long ago. His subordinates did not leave the military camp at all."
Kebineng asked in shock: "Could it be that Thief Gongsun isn't going to visit the Rites of Heavenly Worship? "Are you sure that's him in the military camp?"
"It can't be wrong! Wu Li even went to take a look personally. "
"This king still has faith in Wu Li's prudence. This king thinks that it's a little strange. Logically speaking, it's impossible for Gongsun Xu not to go and watch the Rites of Heavenly Worship! "
Su Li suddenly interrupted: "Little Wang, could it be that Thief Gongsun and Helian Lie have some sort of conspiracy?"
Bu Dugen sneered: "Even if there is a conspiracy, why should we be afraid? With just those few men and horses in Thief Gongsun, breaking through the defense of tens of thousands of people to enter the palace was simply a dream! That little thief definitely would not die for nothing! I do not need to worry, I just need to send people to watch over Race Yard Barracks closely! When the situation is settled, we will surround them again. We are not afraid of Thief Gongsun surrendering! "
Su Li said fiercely: "At that time, I will definitely kill Zhao Yun and his, and Ku Le that damnable henchman!"
Even in his fury, Su Li still did not threaten to kill Gongsun Xu, because he was very clear in his heart that before Kebineng could unify the various tribes, he would not dare to anger the Northern Tyrant Lord with just his small group of people.
"If the outcome has been decided, those three people can be handed over to you." Kebineng was a trusted general, and he was sensible enough to not mention Gongsun Xu, so he definitely could not refuse such a small request.
A cold smile flashed across Bu Dugen's lips, he stood up and rubbed his chest as he bowed: "It's about time, Little Wang, give the order to send troops."
Kebineng waved his hand and allowed Bu Dugen to sit down, then looked at Su Li and solemnly said: "Su Li, I will leave this area to you, I will leave ten thousand men to you, you must guard the camp well, and monitor the movements of the Chinese people at all times, regardless of whether they want to rush up the mountain or escape, you cannot forcefully stop them, you only need to send troops to chase them from behind. "Remember, the general situation is important. There are many opportunities for revenge!"
"We obey Little Wang's orders!" Su Li's face sank as he unwillingly agreed.
"Prince Xian of the Right, you …"
Before Kebineng could finish speaking, Wu Li's voice came from outside.
"Reporting to the Right Sage King, Gongsun Xu has gone up the mountain!"
"Oh? Thief Gongsun has made his move? " Joy flashed across Kebineng's face, and he shouted towards the outside: "Wu Li, come in and speak!"
Wu Li pulled open the flap of the tent, and after entering, bowed to each and every one of them.
"Alright, alright!" Bu Dugen waved his hand impatiently and asked: "How many people did Thief Gongsun bring?"
"About a hundred people!"
Kebineng was a little surprised: "Thief Gongsun only brought these few people? What's happening with the others? "
"They're still in the army camp. After Gongsun Xu left, they obviously increased their guard."
Kebineng pondered for a moment, then asked: "Does Thief Gongsun want to stand idly by the side and watch?"
"Little Wang's guess is also possible. Gongsun Zan only has one son, and if they have some plan, they would definitely not put Gongsun Xu in danger. Could it be that … when Bu Dugen got to this point, he suddenly took in a breath of cold air and hurriedly shouted, "In order to ensure safety, we have to send out a scout horse a hundred miles away as soon as possible to prevent Gongsun Zan from being left behind!"
Hearing that, Kebineng was shocked, if it was really as Bu Dugen had guessed, when Gongsun Zan waited for them to fight and suddenly rushed over, he was afraid that Xianbei People would forever lose the chance to become strong!
"Someone, come!" Kebineng stood up and shouted towards the outside.
"What orders does Little Wang have?" Murong Qi replied and entered.
"Send five teams of one hundred to the east to scout the area. Report the moment you discover a large group of people approaching!"
"Here!" Without asking why, Murong Qi turned around and gave the order loudly. Soon enough, he heard the sound of horse hooves galloping far away.
Bu Dugen thought for a moment, then suggested: "Little Wang, do you want to keep some men behind to guard against the possibility of Gongsun Zan's army appearing?"
"Could Prince Xian of the Right be thinking too much?" Su Li looked at Bu Dugen and sneered: "The spy who was hiding in the Youzhou the day before yesterday came to report to him. He said that Gongsun Zan had brought several thousand people to the northern part of the Jizhou. Could it be that he can conjure several tens of thousands of troops, grow wings, and fly to Tanhan Shan? "
"Su Li, Prince Xian of the Right's guess is very reasonable, don't pester him for no reason!" Kebineng shouted to stop Su Li, and then smiled at Bu Dugen: "Since we've already sent out spies to travel a hundred miles away, there's no need to keep too many people here. After all, Gongsun Zan coming here is just speculation. Let's leave another five thousand soldiers and horses for Su Li. If Gongsun Zan really comes, he can lead fifteen thousand men to our rescue! "
"What Little Wang says is extremely true. I am only guessing. There is really no need for me to leave too many soldiers behind." Bu Dugen nodded his head in agreement, but in his heart, he was laughing coldly to himself.
"Good!" In that case, I would like to trouble you, Prince Xian of the Right, to go back and gather this group of people. We will lead an army to the altar in an hour's time.
"Here!" Bu Dugen held his chest and saluted, then walked out in big strides. When he passed Su Li, he quietly glanced at the other party with incomparably cold eyes, as if he was looking at a dead person.
Kebineng walked to the entrance of the tent and watched as Bu Dugen left. Then, he turned his head and sternly advised Su Li, "This king knows that you are not satisfied with Bu Dugen, and also knows that Bu Dugen and Pu Tou are taking this opportunity to increase their strength. However, as long as they are willing to help this king and his company, this kind of thing can be set aside! Once This King unites all the fresh and poor tribes, how can they continue to be divided? "
Su Li's eyes lit up, and nodded repeatedly: "Your Majesty, you are right, I know what to do."
"I will leave the most reliable team of one and a half million to you. Remember your duty is to guard against the Chinese, and do not rashly go forth to attack Gongsun Xu's troops!"
"Here!" I will definitely defend the camp well, at the same time, I will look after the people of Thief Gongsun! This lowly general wishes the king a victorious return! "
"Definitely!" Kebineng laughed as he walked out.
