"Yan Ju, why are you absent-minded?" Xuanyuan Ning glanced at Yan Ju who was following the coax next to him.

"Huh?" Yan Ju was stunned for a moment and said, "No, isn't this following you to denounce Weichen?"

Weichen also leaned in, reached out and touched Yanju's forehead, and said sadly: "It's over, it's over, this kid is confused, maybe he just played a little big, if that old guy knows, he has to pick up a layer of skin from me." ”

"You know, I was playing with that just now!" Xuanyuan Ning said with a red face.

Immediately turned his head to look at Yan Ju and asked, "What is it that makes you so uneasy?" At this time, the people in the house, Ren Sheng, Di Xiuxiu and others also gathered around Yan Ju.

Yan Ju looked around for a week before he hesitated a little and said, "Maybe I'm suspicious, I feel the breath of Chiyou." ”

As soon as the words fell, he had already flashed out of the room, followed by Ren Sheng and Di Xiuxiu. Weichen returned to his original position and sat down, rubbing his hands constantly, as if he was thinking about what to play for a while. Yan Ju and Xuanyuan Ning were confused by their actions, and they didn't know whether they should go out with them or stay and wait.

After a while, Wei He walked into the house, sat next to Weichen, looked at the two Yanju who were still standing at the door, and said with a smile: "What are you doing with the pestle? I've wanted to play for a long time, but it's a pity that there are too many things in the alliance. ”

Yan Ju and Xuanyuan Ning both knew that Wei He was very appreciated by Xuanyuan, not only because he was the apprentice of the high priest, but also because he was steady, kind to others, and extremely popular in the alliance. And he is even more respectful to the four apprentices, no matter how he looks at it, it doesn't look like what a master should be.

After hearing this, Weichen frowned and asked, "Old man, I remember that you should participate in the strategy meeting in the council hall, right?"

Speaking of this, Yanju also remembered that after Jiang Shinian learned the news that the Jiuli clan army had entered Qiulin, he rushed to support with most of the Qingzhuang clansmen, and he should be in the deliberations at this time, and Wei He was the priest of the alliance, how could he not participate?

Wei He said helplessly: "The guests are here, and they are discussing with the Yellow Emperor." ”

"They, guests?" Weichen said in surprise: "It's really Chi You here!"

Wei He was taken aback, looked at Weichen incredulously and asked, "How do you know?"

Weichen pointed at Yanju Nunu and motioned to ask him, then frowned slightly and thought about it. Wei He looked at Yanju and asked, "What's the matter?"

Yan Ju also frowned after hearing Weichen's speculation: "Is he really here, what is he doing here?" and then heard Wei He ask him, so he told him about spying on Chi You back then, so he was very familiar with his breath.

At this time, he took Ren Sheng and Di Xiuxiu back to the house, and the faces of the three of them were a little pale, and it was obvious that they had been secretly injured.

Xuanyuan Ning has had a very good relationship with her since she was beaten and embroidered by the Hui clan, and at this time, seeing that she was not in a good state, she was busy helping each other, and asked in a low voice: "Xiuxiu, what happened?"

Di Xiuxiu was helped by Xuanyuan Ning to sit down, and then said softly: "Chi You came to Xuanyuan to learn." We were all outside the house, only to be hurt by the fluctuations of their exchanges. ”

Neither Le nor Ren Sheng spoke, but their faces were ugly. Di Xiuxiu then said angrily: "His cultivation is already quite profound, and this time he is coming for Xuanyuan." And he also knew that we were all outside, so he came here on purpose. ”

Weichen was interrupted by Di Xiuxiu's angry voice, looked at her miserable white face and angrily said to her heart, got up and walked out of the room.

Yan Ju was stunned and said, "What's wrong with him?"

He closed his eyes and breathed as he replied, "Leave him alone, go find a place." ”

Yan Ju couldn't understand the meaning of his words, but he roughly guessed that he was going to find Chiyou, and he was worried for a while, but when he saw that no one else moved, he also understood that nothing big would happen. Unexpectedly, Weichen had not returned for a long time, and at this time everyone in the house began to worry, Wei He was the first to lose his breath, and got up to look for it. As soon as he stood up, a clansman ran into the house and saluted everyone, saying, "Lord Michen asked me to pass the word and ask the priest to take everyone to the council hall." After saying that, he gave another salute before turning around and going out.

After hearing this, everyone speculated whether Chi You had left, and they were going to discuss countermeasures. Wei He didn't dare to slack off, and led a few people to hurriedly walk to the conference hall. Before I reached the door, I heard Weichen's laughter coming from inside.

"The dignified soldier master just plays this stinky card, ha, it's nonsense again!"

Wei He and the others looked at each other, knowing that there must be a game in the house, except for the elder brothers, several other people were still guessing who this soldier master was. Yan Ju was also stunned for a moment before he reacted, and the breath in the room was actually Chi You, which made his face become a little complicated in an instant.

Wei He didn't stay outside the door, and walked into the conference hall with a few people. As soon as I entered the room, I saw a table in the middle of the spacious hall, and the four of them were pushing it in a circle, and the sound of the collision was mixed with the laughter of several people.

Before Wei He and the others could figure out what the situation was, Weichen spoke first: "Lord Soldier, come and get to know my master, as well as my brothers and friends. After speaking, he walked down the table, came to Wei He's side, and introduced everyone to Chi You one by one.

Chi You also greeted them politely one by one, and didn't treat himself as an outsider at all. After everyone finished introducing them, Chi You opened his mouth and said: "Sure enough, there are many talents, and any one of them is stronger than my senior brother, alas~"

Chi You's sigh revealed a sincere friendship, so that Xuanyuan and Jiang Shinian on the side also sighed.

Wei He and the others couldn't figure out what was going on, so they all peeked at Weichen, waiting for him to give an explanation. However, Weichen didn't have this plan, but said to Chi You: "Lord Soldier, let's continue?"

Chi You liked this kind of game very much, and he didn't object to it, and laughed: "Come on, I'm afraid you won't make it?" The rest of the time was spent in the sound of cards colliding.

It wasn't until it was dark that the four of them stopped what they were doing and began to calculate the victory. During this time, Wei He and the others had been standing in the hall to accompany each other, and they didn't understand what Weichen meant by usurping the game. When the final result came out, everyone was surprised that Chiyou was actually the big winner. Weichen and Xuanyuan didn't lose much when they helped each other, but Jiang Shinian lost very badly, and all the weights in his hands were lost to Chi You.

Chi You laughed and said: "This card is really interesting, but Lord Yandi, we said it before the game, and we are willing to lose the bet." You see......"

Jiang Shinian smiled indifferently, waved his hand very magnanimously, and more than 30 jade plaques of all sizes appeared on the square table. The color of the jade plaque is different, and the texture is even more uneven, but they are all long-lasting things, and there is a faint fluorescence on the surface. Jiang Shinian said to Chi You: "Take it, it's all here." ”

As soon as the jade plaque appeared on the table, Wei He and the others didn't care, but Yanju couldn't stand still, his throat was tight, he grunted, and finally held back and didn't speak, but his body had already begun to tremble slightly.

Ren Sheng, who was closest to him, asked softly, "What are those jade plates for?"

Yan Ju replied in a low voice: "Those jade plates are the tokens of those tribes under Emperor Yan's control, and mastering these tokens is equivalent to controlling those tribes." Speaking of which, Yan Ju's voice actually trembled a little, and he hadn't noticed it yet.

Although Yan Ju's voice was small, the room was full of cultivators, and everyone could hear and see clearly. Yan Emperor Jiang Shinian has exported all the tribes he controls.

Chi You picked up a sign casually, saw that it was engraved with the word Qishan, smiled and dropped it casually, picked up a sign engraved with Weishui to look at it, and then said leisurely: "So Emperor Yan is really ready to lose these tribes to me?"

Jiang Shinian laughed and said: "You also said that you are willing to lose the bet, since I lost, of course I have to admit it, otherwise how will I meet people in the future?"

Xuanyuan also smiled and said: "What the eldest brother said makes sense, and he is a real person, I can't learn this." Ha, I just lost a few cards and I don't want to let go. ”

Chi You looked up at Xuanyuan, with an inexplicable meaning in his eyes, and nodded: "That's right, but even if you give it to me at this time, I won't want it." After speaking, Chi You arched his hand to Jiang Shinian and Xuanyuan and said, "This time this time is too abrupt, please forgive me for the disturbance." ”

After saying that, Chi You didn't accept the jade plate on the table, so he turned around and walked out of the room in a dashing manner, and Weichen followed behind to send him off.

At this time, Wei He came to the table, looked at the jade plaques on the table and frowned and asked, "What happened?"

Jiang Shinian sighed and put away the jade plate, then looked outside the house and said: "Chiyou deserves the name of the god of war, this time it was calculated." Alas~"

Xuanyuan patted Jiang Shinian on the shoulder to show comfort, and then said: "The moment we saw Chi You, we knew that we had been tricked, the strength of the Jiuli clan was far more than you and I predicted, and we could actually go to two battlefields at the same time. ”

At this time, Weichen sent away Chi You and came to the house with a smile, looked at the frowning crowd and said: "What is there to worry about? What if we give him all the northwest? In the end, we don't want to return to the Central Plains for a decisive battle? Now we don't need to deal with anything, just wait for the troops in the northwest to attack the northwest." ”

Jiang Shinian and Xuanyuan were slightly distracted for a moment, and they both nodded in agreement, but Wei He and the others stopped and asked Weichen to explain his words clearly. Weichen smiled: "Is this difficult to understand? No matter how rich the Jiuli clan is, they don't have enough food and materials to support the two fronts. Now they want to take the northwest land first, eat away the power of Emperor Yan, and then cooperate with Qiu Lin to attack Xuanyuan. But they didn't calculate one thing correctly, that is, when Emperor Yan came to help, he took a large number of clansmen and food, and now there are not enough people left in the tribe to support the needs of the army. ”

"Unless Chiyou is ready to slaughter all the way to the Central Plains, then they will encounter unprecedented resistance, and their consumption will be even greater. Therefore, no matter who led the team to attack the northwest, they had to rely on Huairou means, so even if they could get out of the outer mountains and come to the Central Plains, they would have no combat effectiveness, so they should not be afraid. ”

"According to our information, the real strength of the Jiuli Clan should still be in Qiulin, then I want to ask you, how did the other army to attack the northwest be organized?" Wei Chen smiled and looked around at everyone before continuing: "It should be the person in charge of logistics within the Jiuli Clan. In other words, for this attack, the Jiuli clan really poured out, and once they lost, there would be no Jiuli in the world. ”

"In view of the emptiness in the rear of the Jiuli tribe, this war must end in a short period of time, so Chiyou will press all his forces on the frontal battlefield, and the army in the northwest direction will only play a deterrent role. And if we don't consider the problem of face and drag out this war until the winter snows, the Jiuli people must retreat from their hometown. But the army in the northwest direction has no way to retreat, and Emperor Yan only needs to lead people back when the time comes. ”

"So if Chi You wants to keep the foundation of the Jiuli clan as much as possible, he will definitely try his best to weaken the resistance encountered in the northwest attack, so he came, whether it was a provocation or a negotiation, or a rubbing hemp, in short, he came. I have to say that he is a man of great wisdom and courage. ”

"Again, a long-range attack is not a wise choice, which means that there is no need to deal with it, and all of us are here, Chiyou is also very helpless, unable to disperse our strength. Including the jade plaques he just took out, Chi You already knew that those places would be his sooner or later, and there was no point in taking them now. Hey, if he really took away all those jade cards, maybe he could really adjust his strategy in time to make a dark Chen Cang. ”

"What do you mean?" asked Xuanyuan puzzled, although he had been with Ding Cong for many years, there were still some things he still couldn't understand.

Weichen didn't care about these either, and continued: "If he thinks carefully about the strategy after he goes back, he may realize where the problem with the current layout is, and then he will regret not taking the jade plate." If he had these jade cards in his hand, then at his speed, it would only take a few days to subdue those tribes in advance. While subduing the tribes, most of the main force of Qiulin was withdrawn and moved to the northwest, so that there was no need to fight along the way, which could save a lot of time and reduce a lot of unnecessary casualties. At that time, if he had attacked from the outer mountains, and we had defended the hill with all our might, I am afraid that he might have been swallowed up by him. ”

After hearing this, Xuanyuan let out a sigh of relief and said: "Weichen, Weichen, I think you are even more powerful than Chiyou, but I am afraid that the name of this god of war will change hands." ”

Jiang Shinian also smiled and praised a few words, but remembered something again, and asked, "What is the meaning of you just called Chi You the master of the soldiers?"

Weichen was embarrassed for a moment, and then said slowly: "According to the news we inquired, there are a group of clansmen in the Jiuli clan who specialize in dealing with attacks, and they are equipped with the best weapons and armor, and this group of people is the main force of the Jiuli clan in Qiulin, and they are also called soldiers. Chi You is their big chief, of course, their master, and there is nothing wrong with calling the soldier master. ”

Jiang Shinian frowned and said, "Why don't I know such news?" Then he turned his head to look at Xuanyuan, with the intention of asking.

Xuanyuan also shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't know.

Weichen was embarrassed for a moment again, rolled his eyes, and replied with a smile: "The ancestor won't let me say it." ”
