The Witcher: Son of the Planes

Chapter 24 Northern Grasslands

The northern grassland is located in the northwest corner of the small world of Victoria's Secret. It belongs to the Huiyao Empire. The Grassland Khanate, which rose to prominence a hundred years ago, under the leadership of Tongmu Zhenhan, only five years after its founding, it has conquered a large area of ​​inland territory.

Seeing the development trend of the Steppe Khanate, the Huiyao Empire felt threatened, entered the situation in the name of mediating disputes, and led the vassal states to jointly eliminate the Steppe Khanate. A generation of heroes fell into despair.

In the following years, the Steppe Khanate not only withdrew from the inland areas, but was also divided into large and small steppe tribes. Its momentum plummeted, and the Khanate existed in name only. In addition, there were many descendants of the golden family of Tongmu Zhenhan, and the tribes had different support. , the entire northern grassland is even more chaotic.

However, this is exactly the effect that the Huiyao Empire wants. A non-unified grassland is conducive to the rule of the empire. Every year, the horses, cattle, sheep, various furs and other materials that each tribe pays as tribute fill the empire's warehouses, which is enough for the empire to rule. The empire sells to Haoyue Empire and Azure Empire, making a lot of money.

Former Grassland Khanate——Wang Ting

"Chanyu, the Yigele tribe has moved south, and the clan should be relatively empty. The Yigele tribe has developed rapidly in recent years. Tiele's ancestor was just a royal guard. This opportunity has come." Great Elder Mo Ri Gen said.

Chanyu Timur Yesugei thought for a while and asked, "Has the great elder of the Yigele tribe gone south?"

"It seems that he is still in the tribe."

"...Tell me, why is that old guy Zawak unwilling to surrender to me? I am a direct descendant of the Golden Family. Doesn't he want to see a powerful steppe Khanate?"

Before Mo Zhigen could say anything, Timur Yesugei said again: "That's all, if Zawak surrenders to me, the suzerain country will not be able to sit still."

"Are the surrounding Grizzly Bear, Flame Fox, Rock and other tribes willing to return to the king's tent?"

"We're still talking about it. It's hard to say now."

"Damn it, it's all because Liezu (Tongmu Zhenhan) is so prolific... He has hundreds of descendants, each working on his own. When will the glory of the Steppe Khanate be restored?" Tamerlane Yesugei was discouraged. said.

Mo Rigen wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't.

The Grassland Khanate is not like the Yigler tribe. Although he is the great elder, he is not as powerful or influential as Shan Yu. Some words can be said, but some words are just annoying.

"If the Grizzly Bear, Flame Fox, and Rock tribes continue to refuse to submit, we will send troops to conquer them. I really don't have much patience anymore." Timur Yesugai ordered after seeing that Mo Rigen didn't speak for a long time.

"Okay, Shanyu."

Grizzly Bear Tribe.

"Chief, this time the Khanate is coming aggressively and forcefully demands our surrender. The envoy has been here for several days. How can we respond?"

"The Khanate has indeed annexed many small tribes in recent years, but there are still many powerful tribes. Not to mention that with the presence of Elder Zawak, the first man in the grassland, it will be difficult for the Khanate to unify. Even if we surrender, we will only become Khans. They are just pawns of the country," said the leader of the Grizzly Bear Tribe.

"But we are not strong enough. If we don't agree, we won't be able to withstand the Khanate's conquest."

"Send someone to contact Yanhu and the Rock Tribe. I don't think they will agree to submit."

Flame Fox Tribe.

"I understand what your clan leader means. We have not replied to the envoy of the Khanate. If we can advance and retreat together, we are willing to form an alliance." The leader of the Yanhu Tribe replied to the envoy of the Grizzly Bear Tribe.

Rock Tribe.

"An alliance must be formed. Do you still think that the Khanate is the Khanate of a hundred years ago? It doesn't bully the weak and fear the strong. If you have the ability to conquer the Huiyao Empire," said the leader of the Rock Tribe.

Eagle tribe.

"Great Elder, the Khanate is in trouble again. It seems that it wants to conquer the Grizzly Bear, Flame Fox, Rock and other tribes. Do we want to intervene?"

"The Chanyus of the Khanate are worse than the last. If they don't surrender, they will be conquered. We just keep our own tribes and don't worry about them." The great elder Zawak said.

"How's the war going in the south?"

"Chief Tiele burned all the Tiger Legion's food and grass. They must be a little unsustainable. They will gain a lot from going south this time."

"Inform Tie Le not to advance too far and stop when you are ready. Firstly, the warriors of the tribe cannot lose too much. Secondly, the situation in the grassland is a bit chaotic."

"Okay, Great Elder."

Tiger Legion.

"Why are you just eating these? Did you withhold food?" a soldier asked.

"Yes, yes, what's going on? We've been brothers for many years. How dare you deduct food?"

In recent days, the Tigers have been having a very difficult time. Although they have forcibly requisitioned a batch of food and grass from Plimpton City, the quality of the food has dropped significantly. The food transported by Rich is still on the way. Even if it is delivered, it will not last long. , if the principality and other merchants can no longer transport food, retreat will be inevitable, and several small cities in the north will be in danger.

Although it was not stated clearly, the fact that the army retreated to the vicinity of Plimpton City made some smart people among the soldiers think of the reason, and probably also knew about the situation of the burned food and grass.

Hearing the noise of the soldiers outside, Justin had to come out to stabilize the soldiers' emotions.

"There is some food shortage in the army. Although I don't want to say it, some brothers may have guessed it. But don't panic. The food will be shipped soon. We have the principality as our strong backing. What are we afraid of? Everyone first Just hold on for a few days.”

Seeing the legion commander also start to get food, eating the same as everyone else, the soldiers gradually stopped making noise and quietly got food and left.

Seeing the soldiers' emotions stabilized, Justin also relaxed. Fortunately, his prestige was good, otherwise he could not afford the mutiny in the army.

Burgundian Duchy.

"Is the news confirmed?" Henry asked.

"Confirmed, Your Majesty, the Igle tribe in the north invaded the Duchy of Denton in the south, and the Duchy of Denton has suffered a lot." Roger replied.

"What do you think, if we take the opportunity to counterattack those lost cities?" Henry said warmly.

"… Your Majesty, the armistice agreement has just been signed. It is not good to tear up the agreement rashly. Besides, given our current situation, we may not be able to regain the lost land." Roger thought for a while and said.

"Alas, I can't catch the opportunity..." Henry sat in a chair dejectedly.

Emerald Collar.

"Master, please wipe your sweat." Seeing Master George finish his training, Benny handed him a towel skillfully and said.

"Thank you, Benny." George took the towel and wiped the sweat off his body, looking at the pretty Benny and said.

George knew Benny's thoughts very well, and he didn't care about one less or one more woman around him.

As the only heir to the baron, George never lacked women around him, but what George hesitated about was whether his sister would be angry if he ate Benny that day.
