Realm of Power

Main text 3155 The fox borrows the power of the tiger

The Wang Ting border army was destroyed by the Dongbo people. No matter how much the Wang Ting suppressed it, the news quickly spread throughout the Donglin area where the Wang Ting was located. After hearing the news, most of the tribal leaders who came to attend the Wang Ting banquet He had a look of astonishment on his face. He never expected that Wang Ting’s border troops would be killed by Dongshan City when they attacked Dongshan City.

This is too much of a joke. The heads of the various ministries looked not only in shock, but also in gloating. Zhaguo Tiemu was also like this! The dignified North Royal Court was defeated by the Dongbo people. You, the new Khan King, don’t want to lose face. If Zhaguo Tiemu can continue to hold the royal court banquet, then the leaders of the ministries will look at him with admiration.

"Woooo" The golden sunset rolled over the grassland, and the wind blew through the cattle and sheep exposed on the grassland. A long horn sound was like a huge wave spreading out with the royal court as the center, spreading in all directions. The people on the grassland near the Royal Court looked nervously towards the direction where the horn sounded. This was the Royal Court horn. It would only be blown during wars, and where the Royal Court is now , there are hundreds of thousands of tribes alone, and nearly 200,000 string control cavalry. With such a military strength, they are walking sideways throughout the northern grassland. The Wang Ting army originally scattered on the periphery began to shrink urgently, and groups of Wang Ting elites rushed over. , under the sky full of smoke and dust, the Royal Court Cavalry was like a stream gathering from all around. The stream turned into a river and lake, and turned into a grassland covered with iron hooves covering the land in front of them.

"Rumble" Under the horse's hooves, not only the earth was trembling, but also the hearts of the people around the royal court were trembling. Everyone knew that the new Khan King Zhaguo Temu had gathered considerable strength, but no one expected that the gathered troops would be so powerful. So many, you must know that the Wang Ting headquarters army and the Wang Ting army with Wang Ting as the backbone are completely different things.

The main army is directly under the command of the Khan, and is the direct lineage of the Khan. It is the force that truly belongs to the Khan. The other is the coalition with the Khan as the center. If what appears in front of you is the royal court coalition, then such a scale and number are still It can be fought, and the ones summoned by the horn at this moment are only the direct legions of Wang Ting. From the beginning, 20,000, 30,000, 50,000, 80,000, Wang Tingwei, that is another matter.

"Why are there so many? Doesn't it mean that the Royal Court suffered heavy losses in the battle with the Coldlanders?" The leaders of each tribe began to look unnatural as they looked at more and more Royal Court cavalry. One of the tribal leaders made a visual inspection and lowered his voice. vocal tract

"I dare not say that there are many, but there are 70,000 to 80,000. I really didn't expect that Zhaguo Tiemu could accumulate such a military strength after being defeated by the cold people."

"Are you kidding? Anyone with a discerning eye can see the relationship between the Royal Court and the Coldlanders. Since the Coldlanders went south, when did the Royal Court really come into contact with the Coldlanders? Instead, where did the Royal Court interact with the Coldlanders? If they fight, the local tribes will suffer disaster. , the land of the cold people, the royal court has obtained livestock and people, it is not surprising that it has such a scale." A tribal leader next to him said in a disdainful tone, "Even if they all came out just to deal with the Dongbo people, why? It gives people a funny feeling just looking at it.”

"Okay, you two, if people in the royal court listen to these words, I'm afraid you'll get into trouble again, so it's better not to say it again."

There was fear on the face of a tribal leader next to him: "No matter how the Dongbo people did it this time, it is a bad thing if they don't see it. At least Wang Tingyan of Zhaguo Tiemu cannot continue until he defeats Dongshan. And among all the kings of the past, this generation is the only one who suffered such humiliation during the royal banquet! "To be honest, I am also very curious, how did the Dongbo people do it? "

"You ask me, who should I ask?"

"King Khan's order, please go and hold a meeting." A royal court cavalry galloped over, stopped the horse in front of several people, and said loudly. The faces of several leaders changed, secretly regretting that since the royal court is no longer If you hide your strength, you won't be so polite to the various ministries. Shunchang's surrender has always been the survival principle on the prairie. Wang Ting has made it clear that he wants to coerce all the ministries to attack Dongbo together.

On August 3rd, Beiwangting's 200,000-strong army set out from Donglin, marching eastward like an endless torrent. On August 5th, Wangting's army crossed the border of Dongbo, like a hurricane passing through this vast land. , the horse's hooves brought up countless dust, and the dust swayed with the wind brought by the fast horse, forming a magnificent landscape in the sky. The Dongbo border was brutally raided by Wang Ting's border troops. It was already very desolate, and now it has become even more desolate with no one to be seen.

"I heard that King Khan ordered the sweep of the Dongbo border and then attacked Dongshan." A grassland leader stopped his horse and scanned the desolate land. He didn't see a single Dongbo person along the way. All of them, thinking that not long ago these areas were towns where Dongbo people gathered, and the tribes The leader's eyes were a bit strange. The royal court was probably going to all possible measures in this raid, which was why he finally angered the Nu tribe in Dongshan. Somehow, he was beaten to death by the Nu tribe in Dongshan, and now he has nearly 200,000 grassland troops under his control. I came here just for a chance. It really feels like slashing mosquitoes with a big knife.

After running continuously for a day and night, after entering the border of Dongbo, Zhaguo Tiemu's cavalry began to slow down, and finally gradually stopped advancing. Although Zhaguo Tiemu was furious, he still remained cautious. He knew that Dongbo The possibility of destroying more than ten thousand of one's own frontier troops in a frontal battle is extremely slim. The other party must have adopted some secret method! A large number of pathfinding cavalry were sent out. Zhaguo Temu would not advance without getting specific information.

In the military tent of Zaguotemu, waves of icy cold air hit the face. In the big tent, there were four iron pots arranged in the four corners. Ice cubes were piled in the pots. The cold air spread from these ice cubes. , there is still a faint smell of agarwood in the air, the heat outside the camp is unbearable, and inside the tent It is indeed cool and refreshing, and there is a refreshing aroma. Such a luxurious life is not unusual for a wealthy family in Central and Eastern Asia, but in this desert land thousands of miles away, this big The tent is twenty or thirty steps in diameter, more than enough to accommodate fifty or sixty people. The ground was leveled, first covered with a layer of bamboo mat, and then spread with oilcloth to isolate the moisture. The top is a layer of carpet

Such an arrangement has long made the leaders of the grassland tribes red-eyed. They have heard of these things, but have rarely seen them. Those who can stay in the northern grassland and do not move south are either not strong enough. Those who moved south were uncompetitive, or they wanted to get rid of the oppression of the big clans and stay on the grasslands to develop themselves. When the grassland army attacked the Central Asian Imperial Capital in three ways, they did not participate.

His eyes swept over the salivating faces of the leaders. Zhaguo Tiemu leaned on the wooden bed with one leg, and used the meat cleaver in his hand to cut open the browned lamb with skin on the wooden table, and put it into his mouth, along with various fresh fruits. , there is a good blended soup, and after drinking a little wine, my face is even more rosy and energetic. The corner of his mouth grinned

"They are all small gadgets of the Central Asians. I keep them for little use. If the leaders are interested, you can take them. According to the rules on my grassland, the royal banquet can also be held on the marching road, but this prey requires If we change it, what do you think about changing the prey to Dongshan? Whoever is the first among the tribes to attack Dongshan City will be his. Do you have any opinions on this bet?"

"Is what your Majesty said true?"

Perhaps because they thought the news was too sudden, the leaders and generals of all ministries were stunned. Everyone opened their eyes wide. Zhaguo Tiemu repeated his words twice before their eyes became hot and they used the attack target as a target. Rewarding prey is not uncommon in royal banquets in the past dynasties. This can not only inspire everyone's hearts, but also show the power of the royal court. Yan, even sometimes, the Wang Ting Banquet is the annual military meeting, and a young man behind the leader of the grassland can't help but stand up. He is the younger brother of the leader of the grassland tribe. His appearance is exactly the same, but There were several scars on his face, and he looked more ferocious. He asked sternly, "As long as who is the first to attack Dongshan City?"

"Of course, what I said is the King of Khan's order. Whoever is the first to climb Dongshan City will own Dongshan."

Zhaguo Tiemu laughed and said, although he was heartbroken at the loss of tens of thousands of frontier troops, it was worth it to be able to use Dongshan to re-establish himself in the minds of the leaders of various ministries. As for Dongshan City itself, , Zhaguo Tiemu is not worried at all. Even if a mere Dongshan City plays tricks, it will never be able to stop its 200,000 army from crushing it. The reason why he ordered the army to stop after entering Dongbo was not only to explore the news, but also because the Dongbo area was not a grassland area. The barren hilly areas lacked dense grass. 200,000 grassland cavalry entered and the horses ate every day. The amount of fodder is astronomical. Once you go deep into Dongbo, it means you have to start calculating how many days your logistics supplies can last.

In the afternoon, the Xunqi from Dongshan returned, bringing news that shocked Zhaguo Tiemu. The Yelu family's military flag was planted on the top of Dongshan City! How is this possible! Isn't King Yelu's court army in Yawugu? How could he come to Dongshan in one breath? The wine in the Zhaguo Tiemu wine glass kept flowing downwards, all spilling on his boots. He didn't even notice it. No one could have imagined that. Dongshan City was captured by the Yelu Army. The other tribal leaders present were also shocked. They thought they were just fighting against the cowardly Dongbo people, but they didn't expect that they were actually fighting against the Yelu King's army. It would be a lie to say that I wasn’t a little panicked. Everyone knows the Yelu family’s fighting prowess. They attacked Yanzhou twice. If not for an accident, even Wang Ting was driven out. This time Yelu The family returned to the northern grassland under the banner of marching north to save the grassland. All the ministries had already expected that there would be a battle between the Royal Court and the Yelu family, but no one expected that the decisive battle for the kingship of the grassland would come so quickly.

"Have you seen clearly? The flag of the Yelu family is really hanging in Dongshan City?" At this time, Zhaguo Tiemu seemed to have realized something, and felt something was wrong. At this moment, a skinny General Wang Ting appeared. He stood up and said to Zhaguo Tiemu, "King Khan, this is not normal. The Yelu army was still at the entrance of Yawu Valley seven days ago. How could it suddenly happen?" He came to Dongbo, and even if he tried to make trouble, his subordinates couldn't figure out why Yelu Jun came to Dongbo. This place is just a wasteland, and even the grass doesn't grow. What did Yelu Jun do in Dongshan City? They were in the old suspicion formation, knowing that our mortal enemy was the Yelu Army, and thought that as long as they hung the flag of the Yelu family, they could scare us away!"

"Yeah, why didn't I expect that these Dongbo people are really cunning?"

The leader's words were like a stone falling into a calm lake, causing huge waves to splash out. The other tribal leaders suddenly looked stunned, and they all scolded the Dongbo people for being so shameless for even thinking about it. Come up with something like this! It's a pity that I went too far, otherwise I would have been tricked by the Dongbo people.

"The other side wants to bring us down. As long as our army hesitates, over time and the supplies are exhausted, they will naturally retreat." The leaders were talking about it, and the more they talked, the more likely it was that this possibility was very high. Zhaguo Tiemu immediately Someone called for the sentinels who were investigating in front and asked in person, "Did you see with your own eyes the Yelu family's military flag hanging on the top of Dongshan City?"

"I saw it with my own eyes. Dongshan City is indeed flying the Yelv family's military flag." The sentry rider knelt on the ground and answered decisively. Hearing such an answer, Zhaguo Tiemu smiled instead, "It's a bluff. It seems that Dongshan City is in Defeat our Wangting border army In the first battle, the losses were extremely heavy, otherwise we should not resort to such self-deception. We really think that flying the Yelu family’s military flag will scare us away. What a joke! How can I, the dignified Beiwangting, be afraid of the Yelu family!”

"Crack"

Zhaguo Tiemu's face was livid, and he punched the desk in front of Manqian with a fierce punch. The fruit on it spilled all over the floor, and the wine stained a large area on the stall.

Although the rise of the Yelu family and the decline of the royal court are unstoppable trends, Zhaguo Tiemu believes that through his hard work, even if the current royal court has not returned to its previous heyday, it is not far from it. If it is still the same as what it has become The Yelu family, who are vassals of the empire, are all together. What a shame to the royal court! One is a guard dog who is kept in captivity, and the other is a lone wolf on the grassland that is proud of the world. How can the two sides be compared!

"King Khan is wise, now is the time to march with all his strength and defeat Dongshan City in one fell swoop."

The tribal leaders stood up one after another and shouted for battle. Zhaguo Tiemu had already thrown Dongshan City as a reward for his prey. Everyone wanted to bite off this piece of fat. Although Dongshan City was the city of the Dongbo people, because Located on the border, it is the only way between Dongbo and the grassland. For decades, To recuperate, who knows how much gold and silver property has been accumulated in Dongshan City, and the strategic value of the land in Dongshan City itself is also extraordinary, but the genuine Dongboxi Gate, who knows that occupying Dongshan City is equivalent to controlling the area of ​​more than a hundred miles near Dongshan City. , so fat, who wouldn’t be jealous! It is said that money and silk move people's hearts. Even if Zhaguo Tiemu still hesitates, all the ministries will forcefully promote this war.

"Give the order, let the army set off!"

Zhaguo Tiemu looked at the leaders of the tribes and said sternly that the hanging of the Yelv family's military flag in Dongshan City dispelled the last doubt in his mind. If the Yelu family was really in Dongshan, they would not be stupid enough to hang their own flag in Dongshan. The military flag, only the stupid Dongbo people would try to deceive themselves by pretending to be powerful. If they are still so timid and dare not move forward, Wang Ting will really lose face!
