I’m The King

Aman was very anxious, waiting for news around the house. In the past few months, he had not slept for a good sleep. The chaos on the grassland has put the entire Gongsun tribe in extreme danger.

It has been more than two years since the Gongsun clan came to Jishi Mountain. Since he moved to this place with the clan two years ago, he has taken root here and built a permanent old camp. This is a good place. Not only does it have water sources, but the surrounding grassland resources are also very luxuriant. More importantly, Jishi Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Here, it is really suitable for the survival and development of a small tribe like him. He raises his livestock and others at the bottom of the mountain, and strong soldiers are stationed there, but the old, weak, women and children are all placed on the mountain. Stone houses and wooden huts are the result of his tribe's multiplication and thriving here over the past two years.

But a big defeat by the Xiongnu made this wonderful life almost in vain. In the past few months, Jishishan has been attacked several times. Fortunately, those who came to attack are similar to themselves, even weaker. Some tribes, relying on the terrain, have already wiped out several enemies.

But yesterday I got news that a group of horse thieves with more than five hundred people had gathered fifty miles away, and they didn't know who their goal was.

Five hundred rides! Aman rubbed his head in pain. His entire tribe, including all the men between the ages of sixteen and sixty, could only make up five hundred horses. How could he stop this wolf-like horse bandit?

"Aman, withdraw all the tribes to the mountain, and defend against the mountain. We have more than a thousand slaves. We issued them weapons, which can also help the guards. I think they should also know that the horse bandits have killed them. , They can't survive. Explain to them this interest. More or less power." Aman's woman, Dexiang, the hostess of the Gongsun tribe, persuaded, "Going to kill the enemy, we don't have this strength. "

Aman smiled bitterly. "These slaves don't want to die. But are they very loyal to us, and give them weapons. If they go back, we will die faster."

Dexiang couldn't help being silent. These more than 1,000 slaves were either caught by the Gongsun tribe or bought from other tribes. In the past two years, these slaves have been used to open up wasteland by the Jishi Lake under the Jishi Mountain. The Gongsun tribe has a lot of fertile land. The current Gongsun tribe not only grazes, but can also produce their own food, which is why they don't have to move with the seasons like other tribes. Slaves are naturally disobedient, and most of these people are still working in chains.

"Patriarch!" A young soldier rushed in from the outside, sweating profusely, but his face was indescribable panic.

"Gongsunyi. What happened? Have the **** horse thieves set off for us?" Aman asked repeatedly, putting his machete on the table with his backhand. Put it on the belt, "They're here, aren't they!"

"Patriarch, they're all dead, these horse bandits are all dead!" Gongsun Yi gasped heavily and said loudly, "Patriarch, they are all killed."

"It's all dead, the horse bandits are all dead?" Aman's first shout was an ecstatic cheer, and the second one turned into a suspicious rhetorical question, and Dexiang was also full of fear after his instant happiness. As far as they were concerned, they were afraid that a wolf was there, but a tiger was ushered in.

"Who? Which tribe did it?" Aman's voice trembled a little.

"The patriarch, it is not our Huns, but the people of Fufeng. I saw their banner. Their vanguard cavalry raided the horse bandit camp during the heavy rain yesterday and almost killed more than 500 horse bandits. Jue, only a handful of people escaped." Gongsun Yi's face was a little distorted, and he trembled.

"Why did the Fufeng people appear here?" Aman yelled, "How many of them are there?"

"They have about three hundred horsemen and horses!" Gongsun Yi's words made Aman just a little bit off, but the following sentence caused him to fall into the abyss in an instant, "Behind the cavalry, there are foot soldiers, I am far away. Looking from a distance, I am afraid that there will not be thousands of people, carrying hundreds of large vehicles, and it is mighty and mighty, without seeing the beginning and the end."

Aman only felt that his whole body's strength had been dampened clean with Gongsun Yi's words, and the Fufeng Army came in a big way. Within a hundred miles of this Fangyuan, besides Jishi Mountain, where would there be a second goal? At this moment, he is more willing to face a group of horse bandits. Although the horse bandits are difficult to deal with, their discipline is lax. As long as they can survive their previous rounds of offensive, they may retreat due to excessive losses, but the Fufeng Army is different. , This is a disciplined team, against them, he has no chance of winning.

"What to do, what to do?" he muttered. You can't run away. Apart from the soldiers, he has thousands of old, weak, women and children from the Gongsun tribe, as well as the tribal property accumulated over the past two years. Don't you want all of them?

"Aman, evacuate everyone to the mountain." Dexiang was also pale, but he looked calmer than Aman. "I have heard the caravan say that the Fufeng Army is not against the Huns. Especially hostile. Didn’t the Helan Department have a special relationship with them? In the past two years, we also bought their wine and other goods through the Helan Department caravan?"

"Yes, yeah, the Fufeng people's site is not on the grassland. They will definitely not come here to grab this site. There must be a way!" Aman jumped up, "Gongsunyi, first All the people and livestock at the bottom of the mountain evacuated to the mountain, and then you brought some people and some livestock to comfort them and figure out their intentions."

He looked back at Dexiang, "Then make a decision, Dexiang, how good do you think it is?"

"This is very good. We don't hit the smiley people with our hands. We kindly treat them. They won't meet each other immediately." Dexiang nodded.

When the ups and downs of Jishi Mountain were in turmoil, the army led by Sun Xiao and He Lanyan had already approached Jishi Mountain. After Hengdao brought back the exact information, Sun Xiao did not hesitate at all, and immediately ordered to advance. In the evening, the brigade arrived at Jishi Mountain, next to Jishi Lake, and set up the camp of the big camp.

"Good place, really right place!" Looking at the steep Jishi Mountain in the distance, and then at the clear Jishi Lake next to Daying, and the pieces of the lake that have been reclaimed, the growth is just right. Crop, Sun Xiao is too satisfied to be satisfied anymore. Here, it is really a good place to build a nest.

The most wonderful thing is that the Gongsun family did a lot of early work for him, which saved him a lot of effort.

"The Aman of the Gongsun clan is a wonderful person!" Sun Xiao looked at the generals under his command, "You actually farmed the fields and planted crops, coaches, this is different from most of your Xiongnu tribe!"

"What's the difference?" He Lanyan said in an unpleasant manner: "Have you ever been to the Xiongnu Royal Court? There also formed a large-scale market town. Although not comparable to the Central Plains cities, it is not too small. Under the command of the Huns, In addition to the nomadic tribes, there are naturally also slaves who are cultivating. This is only a little bit bigger. If you go to the royal court and see where the scale is, wouldn't you even have to swallow your tongue?"

Listening to He Lanyan's words, Sun Xiao couldn't help but curiously said: "Why hasn't the Helan Department ever done this before?"

"Our tribe is small and has always been displaced. There is no fixed site. Moreover, even if there is a fixed site, there is no such geographical condition. How to reclaim? Later, we met Gaoyuan, and we did more of the caravan's work. Son, use this to make money, and then buy food and other items from Fufeng, but there is no need to farm." Helanyan said.

"So that's it!" Sun Xiao nodded repeatedly, "I thought the Huns only graze and don't grow food?"

"You are right, but all this kind of farming is done by slaves. The Huns really don't know how to farm." Helanyan said flatly, "It seems that the Gongsun tribe of Jishishan has something in their hands. Few Central Plains slaves!"

Sun Xiao laughed happily, "The more the better, it will be ours in the future."

Several people were talking. Suddenly there was the sound of a warning horn on the front of the camp. Sun Xiao and He Lanyan looked at each other and looked at each other. Us?" He Lanyan muttered.

The two wanted to rush to the camp, but saw that the tiger head in front was flying on its own feet, "General Sun, the coach, the Gongsun clan doesn’t know what to do. Now a guy named Gongsunyi drove a large group of cattle and sheep to us. At the gate of the big camp, he asked to see the general, and he said that he was here to reward our army!"

"Oh, this Aman can even do this?" Sun Xiao laughed, "Niu Yang accepts it, isn't this Gongsun Yi just coming to explore our fiction? Give him this opportunity and prepare in the camp. Let this Gongsun Yi open his eyes."

Gongsunyi's legs were a little weak, although the other party did not embarrass him, after accepting the gift from him, he only said that the general would thank him face to face, so he was led into the camp, and he was seen standing by the knife and dressed in Tsing Yi. The Fufeng soldier in uniform, his calf trembles involuntarily~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This makes him feel a little ashamed. How could he be so unbearable as a Huns warrior himself?

He tried his best to straighten his chest to make himself more uplifted, but immediately, his eyes were attracted by a group of busy people next to him. Oh my God, what are they building? Looking at the assembled bed crossbows next to them, Gongsun Yi almost fainted. After a rough glance, he saw more than twenty bed crossbows.

His face turned pale, and the spirit he had just picked up immediately wilted again. Finally, when he arrived in front of the Central Military Tent, what he saw was a forest of gleaming knives. Two rows of soldiers were holding huge long knives, looking at him with cross-brows and cold eyes. Two eight-foot men showed fierceness at the mouth of the big account. Light, like a beast. One of the guys with a scar on his face even licked his lips. It was this simple action that made him shiver involuntarily.

"Gongsunyi, right?" The other man with a big knife in his hand took a step forward, and between the ups and downs, the iron ring on the knife rustled.

"Yes, yes, Gongsunyi of the Gongsun clan, come to reward the camp army by the order of the patriarch!" Gongsunyi bent down and replied respectfully.

"Reward?" The man hissed and smiled, "Please, my general wants to see you!"
