Realm of Power

Yelu Qiyeguang's information should have been sent to Yelu Hongtai. The news returned from Daizhou proved this. Yelu Hongtai was ill, and it was so serious that he could not even get out of bed, let alone lead the ministries to fight against the empire. As the enemy is approaching, all the ministries are already following Fengtai's lead, both covertly and overtly.

"Does a mere barbarian from the Western Continent really think that he is the master of the earth? Have you forgotten the sound of horse hooves when the Golden Family conquered the Quartet hundreds of years ago?" Fengtai tribe leader Mongolian Lietie hit the conference table hard with his hand. went up, attracting the attention of all the clan leaders, "I have only one thing to say about the empire, since I want to fight, I will fight! Our four divisions in Fengtai are willing to provide 40,000 elite cavalry."

Mongolian Iron Lie's eyes were looking around, and it was the blazing eyes of his prime that flashed with the flame of ambition. His strong body was like an iron tower. Unlike Yelu Hongtai who gave people a depressing feeling, Mongolian Lie Iron gave people the feeling of a ball. Flame, the kind of gold family that can make The exciting bloodline of the grassland people seems to have been perfectly interpreted in him. As one of the largest tribes on the grassland, the inheritors of the Golden Family's bloodline, the Fengtai tribe was forced to move north due to the rise of the Royal Court, but its influence in The position in the hearts of the grassland people has never wavered.

Sweeping everything like a storm, ruthlessly plundering, leading the prairie people to conquer all directions, shining like the sun on the earth, this is how the golden family should be in the minds of the prairie people. Named after iron, it was the eldest son of every golden family hundreds of years ago. The glory of the Golden Family means that the eldest son of the Golden Family should be as strong as steel and as ruthless as steel, whether it is against the enemy or one's own people!

The era of the Golden Family's rampant expansion was also the most glorious era for the grassland people. From the Central Bibia region to the hinterland of the Western Continent, thousands of miles across the area, the Golden Family's horse hooves had trampled on them, even if it was hundreds of years ago. As time goes by, I can still hear the thundering sound of the torrent that the grassland army swept across.

When they heard that Mongol Tielie had 40,000 cavalry, the expressions of the clan leaders changed. The 40,000 elite cavalry now are not like those on the grassland, who casually put on leather armor and scimitars and went into battle. Assault cavalry with complete armor and sophisticated weapons may even be joined by heavy armored cavalry. Such a cavalry force would require an absolutely astronomical amount of financial resources, even if it acquired a lot of equipment in Central and Bibia. of A good thing, but to turn it into a real cavalry combat force, it is definitely not as simple as replacing one with one. Even the Yelu family's strength is at its peak, but it can only maintain the scale of 80,000 Baihe pro-army. Other troops are Each ministry sent troops to participate, and the Fengtai Ministry itself had 40,000 people at one go. According to the general combat principle, half went to battle and the other half defended the home. In other words, the number of elite cavalry of the Fengtai Ministry was no longer lower than that of the Yelu family.

Mongolia Splitting Iron grinned slightly, enjoying the expressions on the faces of the clan leaders. At this time, it was necessary to use strength to prove the strength of the Fengtai tribe and let the clan leaders of these tribes know that the Fengtai tribe dared to follow Yelu The family challenge is not just because of the distinguished Huang The blood of the Jin family, and because of the strength of the Fengtai tribe, brought out 40,000 elite cavalry in one go. In fact, it was not easy for the Fengtai tribe. Before the four Fengtai tribes went south, the total strength was only about 40,000. After going south, , even if the army is fully expanded, it will only be expanded to 60,000 people.

After all, it is impossible for the tribe's population to grow explosively in just two years. The number of young men suitable for fighting has not changed much. The only thing that can change is weapons and equipment. This is why many grassland tribes gnash their teeth against the imperial merchants. place,

Faced with the imperial merchant group that almost monopolizes all arms trade in the areas controlled by the Yelu Group, the grassland nobles who consider themselves the conquerors of Central Asia have to be polite to these imperial merchants, and even need to flatter them in a low voice in order to get better results than other tribes. Get the weapons you purchased faster and better

"There are only so many weapons. Your tribe needs it, and other tribes also need it. Who to sell it to is really embarrassing."

The imperial businessman had a troubled look on his face, and he knew this technique of deliberately raising prices. He always said that you don’t want it anyway, and some people want it. If you want to be better than others, you have to pay a higher price than others. Yixin The grassland nobles who want to expand their armies and seize territory will still grit their teeth and buy the weapons even if they know that the imperial merchants are deliberately raising prices, or even the prices are ridiculously high. It’s time to snatch it back from the Central Asians. This staggering vicious cycle eventually led to the hatred of the grassland aristocratic group against the empire. It also led to the already dilapidated economy of the areas occupied by the grassland people, and even the hatred of the empire’s merchants. Under the impact, it completely collapsed. A large number of industries flowed into the hands of imperial merchants. There were even debt-ridden prairie nobles who had to sell their cattle and sheep to pay off their debts.

"Are you going to be ridden by imperial merchants and suck your blood forever?" Mongolian Tielie's harsh words finally made the faces of the clan leaders change.

"Yes, the empire is already pressing forward. Should we continue to give in?" A tribal leader gritted his teeth as he thought of his heavily indebted bills. "Since Chief Tielie has expressed his willingness to provide 40,000 elite cavalry, then I The Andal Ministry is also willing to provide three thousand cavalry."

"I, Hu Gu, sent out four thousand cavalry."

"The Feilang Tribe sent out six thousand cavalry." Someone stepped forward, and soon more tribal chiefs expressed their willingness to send troops. Seven or seventy-eight people even managed to raise 40,000 to 50,000 people, but this was not what Mongolian Iron Lie needed. One hundred thousand is still a big difference.

"It seems that there are still people who are disconnected from the empire. It's really ridiculous. As a grassland man, he is embraced by a foreign race." Mongolian Tielie looked at some silent clan leaders with fierce eyes. The words revealed between his teeth were full of murderous intent. If he hadn't considered There were several ruthless characters in these tribes. He really wanted to pick these people out one by one and see if the hearts in his chest were stained red by the empire.

Most of the patriarchs who are willing to send troops owe money to the imperial merchants. Since they don't want to repay the money, they can simply use war to solve the problem. The remaining patriarchs are vassals of the Yelu family. Most of them are standing on the side of the Yelu family. The pro-imperial faction on the Yelu Qiyeguang side, although the imperial merchants were in the Yelu family area Acquired a large amount of wealth, but also developed pro-imperial factions within the Yelu family group. Most of the patriarchs of these factions benefited from imperial merchants. After all, the empire's goods passed through their areas, and imperial merchants had access to the upper levels. The usual way to hit the joints is to directly hit them with money.

"The Fengtai tribe wants to replace the Yelu family. That is a matter for the Fengtai tribe. I, the Huketa tribe, will not participate. Fighting against the empire, my Huketa tribe is weak and cannot support it. Say goodbye." A figure The tall patriarch stood up and said to Mongolia Tie Lie's eyes were completely ignored and he smiled contemptuously. He turned and walked towards the door. Behind him, seven or eight tribe chiefs quickly followed. These were the small tribes under his jurisdiction. The person who stood up was Hu Ke. Su Malong, the leader of the Ta tribe,

Seeing Su Malong leaving so unceremoniously, the clan leaders of the other tribes all glanced at each other subconsciously. Sure enough, the Yelu faction was unwilling to be suppressed by the Fengtai tribe. The Huketa tribe was a large tribe in the northeast of the grassland. Population: 150,000, cavalry The combat strength is more than 20,000. Since joining the Yelu family, he has become one of the backbones of the Yelu family. He has been given important tasks by Yelu Hongtai. The area he is based in is also one of the core and rich areas of the Yelu family, the Jizhou Plain. In the past two years, It can be regarded as a strong army and a strong horse.

Others are afraid of the Fengtai tribe, but he, the Huketa tribe, doesn’t care so much. Anyone who is blind can see that the Fengtai tribe wants to replace the Yelu family. Once the Fengtai tribe comes to power, it will inevitably adjust the existing forces. It turns out that the Yelu family The power of the family will inevitably shrink significantly. Now that they are all at odds, why do I need to be polite? Fighting against the Emperor's Army, these guys don't know how terrifying the Emperor's Army is. They really think that fast horses and long bows can compete with the Emperor's Army. Since you have many people, go ahead and fight. Don't drag me along. Hokota Department

"Su Malong, take one more step forward and you will die!" Watching Su Malong walk towards the door, Mongolian Tielie shouted with a gloomy face.

"Mongol Tielie, what do you want to do!" Su Malong turned around with a stunned look. Just at the door, a young man wearing armor suddenly flashed out from the side of the door, holding a cold curved weapon in his hand. The knife, like a meteor, suddenly passed through Su Malong's throat with a face full of astonishment, and bright red blood flowed out. It exploded. The young man grabbed Su Malong's hair with one hand and chopped it off with a knife. Su Malong's headless chest was like a burst tomato, spurting out a column of blood. Su Malong's body had not yet completely fallen. , the heads had already rolled onto the long meeting table, and did not stop until they were in front of Mongolian Tielie.

"Su Malong, you are seeking death on your own." Meng Tielie sighed, stretched out a hand, lifted the head of Su Malong who had a look of disbelief on his face, and looked directly into Su Malong's eyes, as if he had succeeded in hunting. The hunter grinned proudly and said coldly towards the door. He shouted, "Mongolluo, hang the head of this traitor who colluded with foreigners and betrayed the interests of our prairie people on the gate of Daizhou! Let everyone see what happened to the traitor who betrayed the prairie people." Mongolian Tielie fiercely shouted at Throwing the head at the door, a pair of blood-stained hands caught it steadily.

"Understood, father" the loud voice replied. The person who killed Su Malong was Mongolia who had been lurking at the door. Just like a normal thing, I caught the thrown head.

Mongolia performed a ritual towards Mongolia Tielie, turned around and left the venue with the head in his hand, "Su Malong is dead!"

"Damn it, does Mongolian Tielie know what he is doing!" The clan leaders who saw this scene were in an uproar and their faces turned pale. No one thought that Mongolian Tielie would dare to do this, kill Su Malong, the backbone of the Yelu family faction, and also Hanging a human head on the gate of Daizhou City is basically a declaration of war against the Yelu family. The war started, and although the Yelu family was defeated, the Yelu family's 30,000 elite Baihe troops were in Daizhou. Once this force launched a counterattack, only God knew how many people attending the meeting would be alive. , Mongolian Tielie is forcing everyone to oppose the Yelu family together.

"Do you have any problems with dealing with traitors like this?"

Mongolian Tielie's eyes full of murderous intent swept across the patriarchs present, with a cold look on his lips. Did that old fox Yelu Hongtai think that he would not be able to control the situation if he hid? What a joke. I thought it was the time before when the Yelu family ruled the world with one hand? Now that the power of our Fengtai tribe is not under the Yelu family, even if Su Malong is killed, the other tribes will not show anything. Now among the four most powerful tribes in the group, I have already obtained the power of three tribes. Even the Yelu family The die-hards hurried to the Encyclopedia Force. Although they have not yet made clear their support for the Fengtai Department, judging from the fact that the Encyclopedia Force has agreed to the marriage, they have already expressed their attitude of giving up the Yelu family and siding with the Fengtai Department.

Under such circumstances, what else do you need to worry about? The Yelu family is destined to be a thing of the past, and the people in the ministries are panicking under God's massive pressure. As long as you use good inducements, it is an excellent opportunity. As for the emperor, the emperor's team is powerful, but the emperor's goal is mainly the northwest. He can completely conquer the northwest. Completely given to the empire , when the time comes, as long as the Fengtai tribe gathers the strength of all tribes and faces the entire grassland army, I believe the empire will accept this condition. After all, the northwest has been obtained, and it will be meaningless to fight with the grassland army. This crisis It will disappear naturally,

The heads of the tribes had strange expressions on their faces, and they all lowered their heads under Mongolian Tielie's gaze. The Fengtai tribe was determined to label the Yelu family as traitors, and even killed big tribe heads like Su Malong. Who dares to stand up!

At this time, a guard walked in hurriedly and whispered in Mongolia Tielie's ear for a while. The clan leaders saw that it was the high-spirited Mongolia Tielie whose proud expression suddenly solidified on his face. It felt like It's like being slapped with a stick by someone for no reason.

"What's going on?"

"I don't know, could it be that the Yelu family..." The clan leaders whispered, but soon, their guards appeared at the door one after another, but they were all stopped by the guards. Such a scene made the clan leaders of each tribe... His face suddenly changed, what's going on, is the sky falling?

"Sir, it's not good. The Long family's 300,000 troops are moving south from Yanzhou, and the Washan Pass has been captured." A servant shouted loudly regardless of the obstruction.

"Three hundred thousand Long family troops!" The clan leaders suddenly felt like they were in a panic. Where did the Long family get the three hundred thousand people from? But from Mongolian Tielie's face, they felt that this was not fake. Three hundred thousand Long family troops attack Daizhou...is this crazy! At this time, the Long family did not know what kind of stimulus they received, and they actually began to attack Daizhou on a large scale. More than 300,000 Long family troops flooded through the rolling mountains to the north of Daizhou and poured into the Daizhou area. This was different from the original The influx of 300,000 grassland tribes is so similar (to be continued.)
