Chapter 32 Defection
Yu Shu is worthy of being the altar wizard of the horse clan, and he does have something in himself, almost with just a few words, he can see through his identity, but the other party's words also remind him that there are people in Blackwater City who are ventilating the barbarians.
"The Horse Clan hasn't tried to get in touch with the people in the capital?" Meng Yun said again.
"You don't know yet, do you?The entire capital is now shrouded in the Ice Ling Mirror Enchantment, and people outside can't enter it at all," Yu Shu paused when he said this, "The Black Wolf Clan is preparing to forcibly break the enchantment with the Blood Sacrifice Great Array, and it is not safe to hide in the enchantment. β
Meng Yun frowned when he heard this, "It's so serious?" Do you think it can be broken?"
The first time he heard the news of the capital, he didn't expect it to be a bad news, he hadn't heard of the Ice Ling Mirror, but it must be an unusual treasure to be able to stop the barbarian wizard for so long.
However, then again, the capital is a lonely city, even if there is enough food and grass, one day there will be no food, and it will not help if there is an enchantment at that time, but what he didn't expect was that this day would come so quickly.
"Yes," Yu Shu nodded affirmatively, but seeing that he had a suspicious look on his face, he said, "The wolf clan never does things that are uncertain, not to mention that this time it costs a lot. β
"How long will the wolf clan leave me?" Meng Yun asked again.
"The next full moon night, more than twenty days," Yu replied.
Twenty days is too urgent, and it will take at least two months for the soldiers in Blackwater City to practice, smelt and cast weapons, etc., and see results.
Meng Yun lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and smiled at the other party, "Is there any hope for the Horse Clan to take refuge here now?"
"The Ma Clan originally planned to find an excuse to take refuge in the Xia Kingdom in the south in the name of attacking Lei County in the south," Yu Shu replied with a smile, "But if we take refuge in the Xia Kingdom, I am afraid that we will not be able to return to the north of the Great Wall, but the old man recently heard that there is a demon clan behind Blackwater City secretly protecting him, so he returned to his original idea." β
The Northern Xuan Kingdom is mountainous and hilly, and the situation in several northern states of the Xia Kingdom is similar, which is not suitable for nomadic herding of horses, in addition, once the Ma clan belongs to the Xia Kingdom, they can no longer make their own decisions, and the high-level Ma clan is not a fool.
Unlike the alliance with the Northern Xuan Kingdom, the Ma Clan has great hope of returning to the grasslands north of the Great Wall in the future, but the premise is to defeat the Wolf Clan, otherwise it is all empty talk.
In addition, Yu Shu thought that there was a demon clan behind Blackwater City, but in fact, there was only one person, and he didn't plan to make this clear, so as not to scare the duck in his mouth.
"Someone in Blackwater City has sent a message to the barbarians, who is this person?" Meng Yun raised his eyebrows and said.
"I don't know who the old man is, but I heard that the wolf clan said it was an official," Yu Shu didn't avoid answering, now is the time for both sides to show their sincerity.
The news is important, the range of officials is much smaller, and it is relatively easy to check.
"Name the conditions of the Horse Clan," Meng Yun said.
"There's no hurry, the old man still has to discuss it with the rest of the clan," Yu Shu said with a wave of his hand.
"Are you kidding me for a long time?" Meng Yun's face showed a hint of unhappiness.
"No, this matter is very important," Yu Shu hurriedly denied it, "The Ma clan has lost hope in the Northern Xuanguo before, and the old man is only temporary, and wants to ask you to probe the tone of the person in charge of Blackwater City, who would have thought that you were the person in charge?"
"Waste time, goodbye," Meng Yun turned around directly after speaking, preparing to evacuate with people.
The other party said it nicely, the head is the way, and the whole person seems to be very sincere, but when he calms down and thinks about it, it is all empty talk, there are no conditions, not even a rough plan.
"Hey, wait," Yu Shu walked around again.
"What are you doing?" Meng Yun said, rolling his eyes.
"Young man, don't be angry, the old man must trust you, but I'm worried that the people of the Ma clan won't be convinced, why not find a reason to convince the clansmen?"
"Dare to love or don't trust us," Meng Yun said with a sneer.
"How about this, capture Changlin County, and the old man will try to get in touch with you," Yu Shu touched his nose and continued, "At that time, Heishui County, the capital, and the horse clan will rise together to attack the wolf clan and destroy one of them in one fell swoop!"
"Even if you don't say it, I am determined to win Changlin County," Meng Yun said here, and his words changed sharply, "But what you think is too unrealistic, even if I have the help of the demon clan, the three parties are united, and the best ideal is to be evenly matched with the black wolf clan, and the reality may be even worse." β
"The old man believes that General Yun understands why he can eliminate the other's strengths," Yu Shu pointed to the two of them after speaking, "With Your Excellency's two hands today, the old man absolutely believes that if Changlin County is conquered, the whole situation will soon be reversed, and it will definitely be a favorable situation for you and me." β
"Hmph, you have confidence in me, but I also say something unpleasant," he naturally won't become drifting and ignorant because of a few flatteries from the other party, "The horse clan had better move quickly, after all, there is a difference between sending charcoal in the snow and icing on the cake." β
"Haha, okay, the old man and you have made a decision, and the condition is that Changlin County belongs," Yu Shu laughed and said, "Within twenty days, if you win, the Ma clan will vote, and if you lose, the Ma clan will vote for Xia Guo!"
"It's a good word," Meng Yun frowned and nodded.
The horse clan was too sudden, he had no preparation in advance, Yu Shu was in a similar situation to him, everyone only had a cooperative attitude, but they couldn't come up with a specific cooperation plan, so they had to be prepared for both.
In other words, the horse clan can't be disbelieved, but it can't be trusted, the horse clan is welcome to come, and if you don't come, you can't hang yourself by pointing to a tree, and you can still make all the plans in the future, or you can take Blackwater City as the center.
"General Yun, tell me the truth, what is the situation in Blackwater City?" Yu Shu said again.
"Don't you know everything?" Meng Yun frowned.
"Haha, the old man wants to hear what you say in person," Yu Shu waved his hand absently.
Meng Yun weighed it briefly, and decided to tell the general truth, "First, no one in the barbarian clan is the opponent of the Black Dragon, no matter how many wizards come, and second, the soldiers of Blackwater City lack armor and war horses, but I heard that the war horses are afraid of the black wolf, so there is nothing to be done in this regard." β
"What if the old man tells you that the horses of the horse clan are not afraid of the black wolf breath at all?" Yu Shu's tone was not without a look of pride.
Meng Yun raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Oh, how many of these war horses can the Horse Clan provide?"
It was the first time he had heard of horses that were not afraid of carnivores, but if this was true, the strategic position of the horse clan in his heart would inevitably be greatly improved.
"150,000 war horses and 50,000 soldiers," Yu said.
"Prepare the conditions of the horse clan, see you in Changlin County," Meng Yun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Haha, it's easy to say," Yu Shu patted him on the shoulder, "But forgive the old man, as the main person, General Yun is the main person, and it is better to do less such dangerous things in the future." β
"What you said makes sense, there will never be an opportunity like this in the future," Meng Yun nodded in agreement.
"That's good," Yu Shu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, after all, everyone was afraid of pig teammates.
"After you go back, blow more pillow wind to the White Wolf Clan," Meng Yun glared at the other party and said, he could probably guess the other party's thoughts.
"Haha, Okay, General Yun, you and I will see you in Changlin City," Yu Shu said with a smile and was about to turn around.
"Well, wait a minute, wake up my people and you will leave," Meng Yun shouted again.
"In less than half an hour, the two of them will wake up," Yu Shu spoke, transforming into a huge black vulture, flapping its wings and about to fly southwest, "Oh yes, I forgot to tell you, the old man heard that a few days ago, the Xia Kingdom had sent troops from Xuanzhou to Lei County, and Your Excellency has to make persistent effortsββ"
For a while, the wind suddenly rose, and the nearby dead branches and leaves, fine sand and light dust were stirred and fluttered all over the sky.
Meng Yun raised his hand to cover his face, and couldn't help but scold, "Old fox!"
"Haha, old man farewell-"
After Yu Shu said this, the whole person disappeared into the night sky......
It is undoubtedly a good thing that the Ma clan is on the verge of defection, but he still has to go back and think about it again, no matter what, within twenty days, Changlin County must be conquered, otherwise the capital will be completely finished.
In addition, the Xia Kingdom sent troops to the southwest Lei County, which is good news, but I don't know if the other party knows about the crisis that the capital is facing now, and Yu Shu did not reveal to him whether the Ma clan communicated with the other party.
At the end of the day, it's time to race against the two sides.
Within twenty days, after the defeat of Changlin County, the situation in the Northern Xuan Kingdom will be clear, but if the capital is captured by the barbarians during this period, basically everything will be over. Because at that time, the Xia Kingdom will inevitably retreat to defend the mainland, and the Horse Clan will be subsumed into the Xia Kingdom, and Blackwater City will have no way to retreat, and it will directly face the attack of the wolf clan, and the final outcome can be imagined.
......
The horse was frightened into the mountains and forests, and he was nowhere to be found, and he had to carry two people forward.
If you don't have horses, you have to run on two legs, and Shangwu must be faster than a horse, but running hundreds of miles long distances consumes a lot of physical strength and aura, and you must be careful to avoid trouble halfway, otherwise it is easy to get bad.
Just an hour later, Wu Hei and Gou woke up, and Yu Shu was right.
Both men were almost incredulous that they were still alive.
"I thought I was going to die," Wu Hei said with a sigh of relief.
"It must have been General Yun who defeated the opponent," Gou said.
"This matter is a bit complicated, I will explain it to you in detail later, the first priority is to return to the county seat, otherwise it will cause panic," Meng Yun interrupted the conversation between the two men.
"Yes, Jiu Yan must have thought that we had braided our hair," Gou nodded approvingly.
......
According to his plan, the group first took a detour to the southwest, and twenty miles away was the main road.
Jiu Yan and the others had to return to the main road in the end, and it was impossible to keep drilling the ravine on horseback, and they might be able to catch up with them by taking the main road.
In less than five minutes, when the three of them came out of the forest and set foot on the road, the moonlight was still very strong, and there was a hint of blood in the north wind.
At this moment, Gou pointed to a few shadows on the north side, "General Yun, look." β
When I ran over, I saw that the shadows were clearly several corpses, both human and wolf, and even a bear corpse.
"Has Gu Yan been caught up?" Wu Hei said in amazement.
"Most likely," Meng Yun walked around several corpses and walked towards the massive bear corpse.
This bear corpse is undoubtedly the incarnation of the barbarian witch, and the transformation technique of the barbarian wizard is different from ordinary spells, if you don't have time to quit the incarnation before death, you will retain the appearance of the incarnation.
"No, how can you catch up with this far?" said Gou.
"The corpse is still hot, I guess I didn't run far, chase after it!" Meng Yun tried the temperature of the bear corpse, and then suddenly got up and said.
This bear pico was stabbed in the eye and died, but it was definitely not long dead, and the corpse had obvious body temperature characteristics, which is the best proof.
......
