However, Gao Jianwu's promise did not satisfy these tribal leaders. Especially Abao Grotto, who had suffered a loss, said with a disappointed face after hearing about it: "Marshal Gao, I thought you had some clever plan to defeat Zhang Xutuo, but I didn't expect that you still asked us to fight hard." The last time the Sui army attacked your Goryeo, I fell for you and recklessly attacked the Sui army, but suffered a big defeat under the Sui general Yuming, and lost a large number of men and horses. I still can't explain to the elders of the tribe. And now you say the same thing...... Hmph, we Khitans won't fall twice in front of the same stone. ”

As soon as Abao's voice fell, another person echoed: "Yes! I fought against Yu Ming a few months ago near the Turkic tent, and although I was young, I was both wise and brave, and I was not an easy character to deal with. We, the Tielers, had an army of 50,000 at that time, and we were still defeated at his hands. His Thousand Iron Armor Elite Riders can be used as ten! ”

This person is the new leader of the Tiele Department, after the defeat of the Tiele people at the hands of Yuming a few months ago, Meng Han was killed on the spot, and the Tiele army was also destroyed, only Kubrai escaped with thousands of light horses, and after returning to the Tiele Department, he succeeded to the Tiele Department in a smooth manner.

Kubrai knew that the Turkic army led by Duji would retaliate next. So he immediately moved east with his tribe and occupied a large territory of the former Murowei people.

And the new leader of the Murwei people was the one who surrendered to Yuming on the same day. In the Battle of the Turkic Tent, he suffered more losses than the Tielers. Not at all an opponent of Kubrai. So he had to lead the crowd to the west and fight and retreat, until Du Ji personally led a large army to come, and he was rescued.

Although he despised him, he considered that he was finally willing to surrender to him, so he gave the pasture of the former Tiele people to Muroweibu.

Therefore, now in the grassland, the residence of the Murwei and Tiele people has been reversed. It became that the Tiele people lived in the grasslands of northeastern Liaoning, and the Murowei people moved to settle in the Mobei grasslands.

Since both tribes were greatly weakened and had fixed pastures, they were at peace with each other, and there were no more wars between them.

However, the king of Goryeo, Gao Yuan, took a fancy to the 20,000 soldiers and horses that still existed among the Tiele people, so he also invited him, saying that he was willing to cede the city close to the Tiele people to him in exchange for the help of the Tiele people.

When Kubulai first arrived in the Liaodong grassland, he also wanted to open up the situation, and after hearing that all the departments of the Liaodong grassland had sent troops to help the battle, and that there was Yuming, whom he hated the most, among the enemies, he also agreed to the request of the Goryeo people to send troops and became a member of the coalition army.

It's just that although he gritted his teeth with hatred for Yuming, he had a clear understanding of his command and combat ability, and he didn't dare to underestimate the enemy in the slightest.

Hearing that the leaders of the Tiele Department and the Khitan Department were a little timid, Yizhide couldn't help but be furious.

He stood up at this time and said solemnly, "Ladies and gentlemen, now we are all sitting in the same boat, if we can't work together, we just want to preserve our strength and let others go up and fight with the Sui army." Then after the boat capsizes, everyone will drown. Whether it is Yang Guang or Yu Ming, they are both very hateful people. Now they all know you're helping us in our fight......"

"With their personalities, they will surely take revenge on your ministries one by one in the future. If you don't fight to the death and defeat the Sui army now, do you still want to hope that Yang Guang will forgive you? Eulzhide's eyes glanced at everyone, and then said in a deep voice: "What we mean in Goryeo is: now everyone has to break the cauldron and fight against the water, and kill Zhang Xutuo together." Even if there is only one person, you have to rush forward! If you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent! I believe that in this way, Zhang Xutuo's troops can be annihilated! ”

"What if you can't annihilate it?" Kubrai immediately asked.

After hearing this, Yi Zhide said lightly: "If it can't be annihilated, then this battle will be lost, and our coalition army will no longer have the strength to deal with the reinforcements of the Sui army." Then you will only have the same as the Mulwei Lertai, and surrender to Yuming! ”

There was a sudden silence in the big tent, no one spoke, Kubulai, Abao Cave, and the leaders of other tribes all looked at me, I looked at you, and their eyes kept talking, but they couldn't make up their minds.

If you fight to the death, of course everyone will be happy if you win. They could obtain the sophisticated weapons and equipment of the Sui army, as well as the food in the city of Liaodong, as well as the city that the Goryeo people thanked them for. The strength of the entire tribe can be raised to a new level.

But if they are defeated, then all the men who can fight will have to be confessed here. The entire tribe will also be devastated, and it will never recover.

This multiple-choice question is really difficult to do! The rewards and risks are so great.

The leaders of the tribes in Liaodong all sighed. This is gambling on life, on the fate of an entire tribe.

However, Abao Cave and Kubrai were a little reluctant, they had suffered a big loss from the Sui army. Knowing how powerful Yuming is. originally thought that he could gather the strength of everyone to take revenge on the Sui army. But who knew that the fierce generals in the Sui army were like clouds, in addition to Yuming, there was also a Zhang Xutuo who was so powerful.

If they retreat now and flee back to their own tribes, they can move further north even if the Sui army comes to attack. Although the north is a bit bitterly cold, it is densely forested, with mountains and rivers, and it is easy to hide.

The Sui people are not tolerant of the cold, and after a while, they can leave naturally, and they can return safely, but they don't have to worry too much.

Although this is tantamount to breaking the agreement with Goryeo, and the losses suffered in the previous attack cannot be recouped, it is better than risking the entire army to be wiped out. Compared with the lesser of two evils, the two of them still prefer to rush back to the tribe immediately, and not wade into the muddy waters of Goryeo and Sui Dynasty.

Gao Jianwu and Yi Zhide saw that the two of them looked different, and they were also nervous, the two glanced at each other, and coincidentally clenched the hilt of the knife. They secretly thought that if Abao Cave and Kubrai were really desperate, they would take their headquarters back. Then they also had to consider whether to use force immediately, keep these two people here, and then put them under house arrest, and then take over their men and horses and continue the attack.

And at this moment, an urgent sound of footsteps came, and a man shouted loudly outside the tent, "Report to the marshal, there is an urgent military situation from the reconnaissance cavalry!" ”

"What emergency military intelligence? Hurry him in! Gao Jianwu shouted.

This sudden news broke the silence in the tent, and also temporarily broke the tense situation that was about to be touched.

"Report to the marshal, the probe horse who went to the direction of Liaodong City to inquire sent back an urgent report that a small part of the cavalry of the Sui army had appeared ten miles away. It is observed that they are the soldiers and horses of Yu Ming, the middle army of the Sui army, to reinforce Zhang Xutuo. At the same time, eighty miles away, there was also a large Sui army approaching us. It is estimated that before tomorrow night, most of the Sui army will arrive here, please take precautions as soon as possible! ”

At this time, everyone in the tent was shocked. Although they all knew that the Sui army would never sit idly by and watch Zhang Xutuo's troops be surrounded and annihilated, they would inevitably send reinforcements. But no one thought that the Sui army reinforcements would come so quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they had already arrived less than a mile away.

In this way, no matter how slow the Sui army goes, they will be able to arrive here tomorrow afternoon. At that time, if the Sui army attacked inside and outside and surrounded on both sides, the coalition army would inevitably be defeated.

Such an outcome is unimaginable to the leaders of the coalition forces here.

"Yuming and Qu Tutong came so fast!"

"What now? Even if we attack right now, I'm afraid it's too late. ”

"Yes! It is probably impossible to take down Zhang Sutuo in one day. ”

Abao Grottoes and Kubrai are completely panicked at this time, if that situation really happens, even if they retreat, I am afraid that there is little hope, after all, the Sui cavalry is not vegetarian. Under the pursuit of the Sui cavalry, how many of them could be left to flee back to the tribe, I am afraid that no one dares to estimate.

Yi Zhide and Gao Jianwu suddenly raised their heads at the same time at this time, and after looking at each other, they both saw a decisive look in each other's eyes. They know it's all there is to do now!

"Ladies and gentlemen, no matter whether it is possible to take Zhang Xutuo in one day or not, we only have one way to go!" Yizhide glanced at the people in the big tent, and said coldly: "Fight, we may still win, but if we don't dare to fight, we will definitely die." In the future, we will all be slaves of the Sui people! ”

Ezhide's words seem to have aroused the blood of the tribal leaders here, who finally got rid of the rule of the Turks, and indeed no one wants to live by the snort of others anymore. The leaders of the Xi clan, Heishui, Su Mo and other departments all shouted loudly: "Since General B has said so, then let's fight this one!"

Seeing that everyone agreed to fight, Abao and Kubrai had no choice but to obey so as not to become the enemy of the public. However, the two of them secretly made up their minds in their hearts and would never let the people of the headquarters take the lead.

"That's good! Now inform the whole army to bury the pot and cook! Strike in an hour! Gao Jianwu was also overjoyed when he saw that all the tribal leaders agreed to attack Zhang Xutuo overnight.

He then rolled his eyes and said, "This attack on Zhang Xutuo always needs someone to take the lead." And Zhang Xutuo's troops have strong combat effectiveness, so the casualties of the troops in the lead will be very heavy. Therefore, I suggest that whoever takes the lead should go to the troops who took the lead half of the booty captured after the battle...... Of course, this can only be rewarded if you shake the enemy's position, and if you are crushed by Zhang Xutuo at the first touch, it will not be obtainable! ”

Abao Cave and Kubulai knew the interests of the Sui army, but they didn't think anything about it, while the Xi clan leader Dalong, the Heishui tribe leader Xianwei, and Su Mo leader Hachi had not fought with the Sui army before. Therefore, he also insisted that the failure of the previous attack on Zhangsutuo was caused by the incompetence of the Goryeo army. Therefore, they unanimously proposed that they were willing to take the lead.

In this way, Gao Jianwu couldn't help but be overjoyed, and he couldn't be happier that someone was willing to take the lead.
