Chapter 177
It was late at night, and the weather by the Qinghai Lake was cold, but the brazier in the military tent brought warmth, making the tent quite comfortable.

But at this time, Murongji and Yebaoyi were sitting on both sides of the brazier.The mood of the two of them really couldn't get better.

Ye Baoyi finally accepted the fact that his uncle, the hero in his heart, was now being forced by the Tang people to commit suicide. After the voices of the Tang people outside were far away, he finally whispered to Murong Ji: "Uncle, you have to cheer up!" , can’t be depressed like this.”

In the darkness, Murong Ji's face turned red from the charcoal fire.

He said in a disappointed tone: "Yeah, Baoyi, don't talk about it, I'm finished, and no one will come to save me. I'm just an outcast on the grassland now, even the Tuyuhun people have given up on me. Even death is worthless, rather than being humiliated and tortured by those Tang people, it is better to kill yourself on the road."

Ye Baoyi couldn't help but use the aggressive method when he heard the words: "Uncle, are you afraid that the Tang people will torture you?"

What responded to him was Murong Ji's silence, and what seemed like a small eye roll.

Nonsense, if he was not afraid, why would he commit suicide on the road, or cut his wrists, if he was a little more courageous and dared to directly hit his own vitals, he would have died by now.

Ye Baoyu was stunned and quickly realized that it seemed that his uncle, King of the Vast Sea, was really not as brave as he thought, and some of the respect for the idol in his heart was once again wiped away.But Yeboji soon had a new idea.

There are people like Yebaoyi in every age and place, just like the sentence Chao Gai said in the Water Margin, "The biggest purpose of this life is to be against the imperial court." People like Yebaoyi, you ask him What did Datang do wrong that made him determined to resist? He can say a lot, but as far as his true thoughts are concerned, Ye Baoyi has no political stance either. The relationship between them is quite good, and there is no need for Yebaoyi to really work hard for the Tuyuhun people.

The main driving force behind Ye Baoyi's determination to follow Murong Ji against Tang Dynasty is largely the idea of ​​wanting to be an enemy of Tang Dynasty, which is a bit similar to the fact that people in the second year of middle school would treat things as illusory, but they just think Very powerful things are his goals, and Ye Baoyi’s problem is that his second stage is a little longer, and his identity and financial resources can support him to really realize this goal, so this guy has been following him until now. Murong Ji has gone a little crazy.

Now Murongji has actually softened, which is very difficult for Yebaoyi to accept.How could he let such a hero on the prairie fall?
Ye Baoyi suddenly made up his mind that even if Murong Ji had lost his fighting spirit, just to prove that his choice was right, he must help Murong Ji and let him become the spiritual leader of Tuyuhun against Tang Dynasty again.

"Uncle, are you really willing to die like this? You are the King of Hanhai, and you once led such a big alliance. As far as you are concerned, you are also one of the best warriors in Tuyuhun. The Tang people said that they only used dozens of people to break into you I can't believe it at all. Do you really want this lie to be passed down on the grassland like this? Uncle, the goshawk on the Gobi Desert cannot die in a rabbit's grave. You are a man on the grassland, are you really willing to die with such a humiliating reputation?"

Ye Baoyi still believed in his heart that Murong Ji would not dare to die without any ambition. As long as he could really persuade Murong Ji, then Murong Ji could still cause some trouble to Datang.

Sure enough, listening to his words, Ye Baoyi could notice that Murong Ji's face under the reflection of the brazier flickered, but his expression seemed to have changed a little.

After a long time, Murong Ji finally gritted his teeth and said, "I don't want to die like this..."

Ye Baoyi's heart moved, and he whispered to Murongji: "Then, uncle, tell me what happened after you were arrested by the Tang people, and we can think of a way together. We can't let the Tang people's scheme succeed like this."

Murongji nodded, suddenly looked left and right, and then turned to Yebao in a very small voice: "Come closer, I can only tell you, I don't worry if someone is eavesdropping outside the tent?"

When Yebao heard about it, Yan thought to himself why the people of Tang had such cautious thoughts. If they really wanted to hear it, they wouldn't lock us up together. But although he felt it was unnecessary, he needed Murongji's cooperation at this time, so he hurriedly Move over to Murong Ji.

At this time, Wang Dong, who was squatting outside the tent and listening to the wall, couldn't help frowning.

It's the critical time, why did he suddenly start whispering, I can't hear clearly... But I just came to listen to the corner on a temporary basis, now the two of them are whispering, even if he enters the house, he won't tell him the content , so although Wang Dong was impatient, there was nothing he could do.

Early the next morning, the team continued to march towards Fucheng City.

The person in charge of Murong Ji found that Murong Ji was much more motivated when he cooperated with the operation today, and the guy named Ye Baoyi didn't cause any more trouble.

They bypassed Qinghai Lake from the south and then headed north. Along the way, Wang Dong and others encountered several rivers formed by the melted water from mountains flowing to Qinghai Lake.Because of the nourishment of these rivers, the land along the way is no longer dry and cold, but has become quite moist pasture.

This kind of place is an excellent pasture for nomads. In the Caiji River Basin on the west side of Qinghai Lake, there is a small protrusion toward the center of the lake. The climate here is humid and the grasslands are rich. To the west, you can go to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. , is the main route for Tubo and other plateau peoples to go down the mountain, and Wang Dong relies on the protection of Qinghai Lake to prevent the army of the Central Plains Dynasty from rushing in. Naturally, it has become an excellent place for the Tuyuhun people to build a city.

So the Tuyuhun people built a city called Fuqi City hundreds of years ago, as the capital of Tuyuhun.

Wang Dong had already learned about the geographical location of Forth City more than once in the information, but when he actually came to the edge of this city, he was surprised to find that the city is really small and pitiful.

It is said to be a city, but to be more precise, Fucheng City is not as good as a fortress in Wang Dong's eyes. From a distance, it looks like a little bit, but compared with it is the continuous military tents outside Fucheng City. .

This is also due to the living habits of the Tuyuhun people. It is recorded in history that although the Tuyuhun people have a city but do not live in it, the so-called capital is just a symbolic place. There are not many permanent residents in it. When the army gathered, they actually concentrated and built camps outside Fuqi City.

At this time, outside of Fucheng City, because of the arrival of the Tang Army, and various aristocratic forces from Tuyuhun came to visit the soldiers and horses brought by the Tang Army. The total number of everyone is said to be [-]. Is it true that there are so many? But at least from afar Looking around, the continuous camp has reached the end of the skyline.
