Chapter 135: Pull Alliance

Another ten days have passed, and what makes Zhao Chun feel strange is that in these days, the Black Ice Tribe has not sent troops to encircle and suppress it, and according to intelligence, there is no news of the Black Ice Tribe's army moving in this direction within a range of five hundred kilometers nearby.

Could it be that the Black Ice Tribe was really frightened by its own army? By default, he was the king within a radius of 500 kilometers? But this king seemed to be too aggrieved, and there were no people! This is a fatal wound, without the people, there would be no food and other material production, and there would be no supply of soldiers. This is even more ruthless than the "three-light policy"!

Zhao Chun naturally understood their strategy, since the anti-thieves couldn't shrink in the Black Forest, then let them hide there for the time being, as long as they didn't take the initiative to attack the city and plunder the town, the Black Ice Tribe would have no loss, and when the problem of the rest of the tribes in the Holy Domain was solved, it was not a matter of exterminating the tens of thousands of anti-thieves in that area? 200,000 troops would use 500,000 if they couldn't do it, and if they couldn't use 500,000, they would use 1 million, even if they used people, they could kill tens of thousands of anti-thieves.

This strategy is not very clever, but for the Black Ice Tribe at this stage, it is very effective, at least they can avoid fighting at both ends and distracting too much energy and troops.

After convening a meeting of the General Staff and synthesizing everyone's opinions, Zhao Chun proposed two ways to crack the problem, one is to take the initiative to attack, send a rapid reaction force composed of cavalry and flying soldiers, go deep into the Black Ice Tribe, attack some towns with weak defenses of the Black Ice Tribe, and after capturing those towns, quickly bring back their materials and personnel who are willing to join him, and avoid a decisive battle with the large army of the Black Ice Tribe. The second is to send people to lobby some tribes in the Holy Domain, and try to form an offensive and defensive alliance as much as possible, so as to resist the Black Ice Tribe together at a critical moment.

After setting the cracking strategy, Zhao Chun let Wang Zhen, Taodong Xiaonei, Shen Bureau, Poison Lady, Caiyun and a few others, led 7,000 cavalry and 3,000 flying soldiers, a total of 10,000 people, secretly infiltrated the Black Ice Tribe to attack their town, and according to the previous intelligence, they had already selected the target, which was a small city about 600 kilometers away from the military camp, this city had a population of about 300,000 people, and the defenders had 15,000 people. Importantly, this small city has a base for the Black Ice tribe to produce various military supplies, and after the capture of the small city, those materials can be transported back to the base area. In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Zhao Chun also sent the Black Whirlwind to lead two thousand people to meet him halfway. And strengthened the collection of pre-war intelligence, such as the stationing and mobilization of troops near the Black Ice Tribe, after they got the news, the time required to rush to the aid and intercept, the deployment in the small town, etc., considered very comprehensively, Zhao Chun asked the participants to pay attention to it and fight it as a major battle. The most important thing is that it must be kept secret before the war, and except for a few senior commanders, the strategic intent must not be revealed until they reach the small city.

As for going to other tribes to conclude alliances, Zhao Chun originally planned to let Ruhua bring a few with him, but after thinking about it, he felt that it would be safer to go out by himself. After all, in the face of sufficient interests, whether oral or written alliance agreements, are not very reliable, and only a contract like the system, which is beyond all things, can really bind them, so that they have no possibility of repentance. Moreover, this trip is not only very important, it is related to the future survival and development of the troops, and it is related to the great cause of resisting the dark rule of the Black Ice Tribe, there are too many variables, and Ruhua alone cannot cope with it.

Unexpectedly, when Zhao Chun was about to set off with Liu Bang, Ruhua and a few others, Laura had to go with her, and she coaxed her, Hanmei and Asha also made a fuss about going together.

Zhao Chun was so depressed that he almost vomited blood, and his brother didn't go on a trip to relax, so what was the matter with so many oil bottles, so he resolutely refused to agree. However, when the group was halfway there, the three oil bottles actually followed quietly, making Zhao Chun vomit blood in anger, but he was helpless.

Zhao Chun's target this time was the Tianhai Tribe, which was about a thousand kilometers away from the base area. The Tianhai tribe has a population of about 20 million and an army of 500,000, which is considered an upper-middle level tribe in the Holy Domain, and the most important thing is that this tribe is politically enlightened, economically prosperous, and gets along well with the surrounding tribes, it is precisely because of their economic prosperity and stable life that they did not get involved in this Sanctuary War, but chose neutrality. In their opinion, as long as they do not take sides, no matter which side wins at that time, they will not hate them and attack them.

Their choice is undoubtedly very wise in other periods, and other tribes can't find a reason to start a war with them, but the problem is that now that the Black Ice Tribe has determined to conquer the Unified Sacred Domain, no matter how neutral they are, the Black Ice Tribe will not let them go, unless they choose to submit to the Black Ice Tribe and be their puppet.

The people who traveled with him didn't quite understand why Zhao Chun chose such a tribe, according to common sense, it was best to choose the kind of tribe that had a deep hatred and hatred with the Black Ice Tribe, and was relatively powerful. But Zhao Chun felt that although it was very easy to form an alliance with such a tribe, those tribes were being defeated by the Black Ice Tribe, and the manpower and materials in the country were very consumed, and it was not very helpful to the troops, so there was no need to rush to form an alliance for the time being, as long as these neutral tribes were dealt with, it would be much easier to form an alliance with those tribes who hated the Black Ice Tribe in the future.

Tianhai City, the capital of the Tianhai tribe, is known as the largest city of the Tianhai tribe, with a population of more than three million, where 15% of the population and 30% of the economy of the Tianhai tribe are concentrated, and the importance to the Tianhai tribe is self-evident.

The walls and gates of Tianhai City are very tall and majestic, surrounded by moats, and heavily guarded, it is really not easy to break through such a city.

Zhao Chun and a few others disguised themselves as a group of businessmen, and they easily blended into the city.

After settling several people, Zhao Chun took Liu Bang to the palace and explained his intention to visit the chief.

After staring at the two guys in strange costumes, the guards hesitated for a moment, and finally went in to report, this is the right of the leader to see or not, it is up to him to decide, they are the guards, they only need to make sure that these two guys are not assassins. But, the more you look at these two guys, the more they look like Assassins? If the leader does agree to meet them, he must examine them properly, especially the hidden places on them.

After waiting for an hour, the guards who went in to report came out slowly, and said, "I'm sorry, our leader has a lot of opportunities, and now he is very unavailable, and he doesn't have time to meet you, so you can go back." ”

"Uh......" was actually rejected by the leader of a small tribe, Zhao Chun was very surprised, and was about to go and debate with the guards.

Unexpectedly, a few guards drove them out and said, "Go, go, go, you want to meet our leader, do you have made an appointment in advance? Have you submitted your credentials? Have you applied to our lord in charge of foreign affairs? No, have you? I see that you are from the countryside, and you don't know the rules at all." Hmph, our Tianhai tribe is also a large tribe with a population of more than 20 million, and it is famous in the Holy Domain, and the name of our leader is even more familiar to everyone in the Holy Domain, but it is not something that any cat or dog can see. If everybody who admires our chief is like you, and casually comes to the door and says, 'I want to see the chief,' and then he receives him, then how can he be busy? ”

Zhao Chun was dumbfounded, feeling that this leader was a strange person, or he didn't want to see him, so he came up with so many excuses. However, he was helpless, people didn't want to meet him, so he couldn't break in with a sword, right?

"You deceive people too much......" It seems that Liu Bang has this idea of breaking in, Zhao Chun quickly stopped him, and now he has a conflict with these guards, which can only make things worse.

Zhao Chun took out a few gold bars, stuffed one in one of the guards' hands, and said, "Brothers, please give me some pointers, how to meet your leader, we really have something very important to visit him." ”

The guards looked left and right, and when they saw that no one was paying attention, they stuffed the gold bars into their pockets, nonsense, this gold bar weighed two or three, and it was worth half a year's salary. So their faces softened, and they said, "If you walk five hundred meters from this street, turn into Hanlin Street and walk another four hundred meters, you will see a mansion with two unicorns in front of the door, which is the residence of our tribal foreign minister, Lord Zelin, if you find him, he will have a way." ”

"Thank you. After Zhao Chun finished speaking, he took Liu Bang to Hanlin Street.

However, to his surprise, in front of the Foreign Secretary's mansion, they were also closed, and the reasons given by the people were also extremely powerful, Zhao Chun did not represent any tribe in the Holy Domain, and did not belong to the jurisdiction of the Foreign Secretary, so the Foreign Minister would not see him, let alone report to the leader on his behalf.

This time, it really made Zhao Chun's nose crooked, Lao Tzu is also a commander of tens of thousands of elites, if you want to destroy any tribe, it is not a matter of words? Now that he is actually bullied by a second-rate tribe and has nothing to say, it is really unreasonable, uncle can bear it, aunt - but when he thinks of the purpose of his trip, it becomes- can also bear it.

"Let's go back to the inn first and then figure out a way!" Zhao Chun took a deep breath and sighed, "It would be nice if you brought the 'fat pig' too, that guy is an old fritter in officialdom, he will definitely be able to figure out a way." ”

Liu Bangtie blushed and didn't speak, he found that two hundred years after he left the Holy Domain, the Holy Domain was no longer the Holy Domain he was familiar with, his title as the number one master of the Holy Domain had no effect at all, no one recognized him, people only regarded him as a joke, how could he bear it when he was arrogant?
