"It's like the gods are protecting you." Sitting on the chaise longue in the mansion of the two wolf guards, Ivanov happily took a sip of spirits, and at his feet lay two naked maidens. They were Murong Yan's two granddaughters, only in their teens, and their lower bodies were still bleeding, curled up in pain on the blanket while using their bodies to warm the Rakshasa Bear King's boots.

The Rakshasa people do not regard the Han people here as their own kind, only as kittens, puppies and animals, of course, when they are resting, it is not impossible to vent on these Han women, and even kill them to eat meat when they are hungry. The Rakshasas are more savage, stronger, and more cruel than the barbarians, and their luck is so good that they make everyone feel deeply jealous.

Ivanov turned to his sons Arkaki and Varianka and said, "Children, for thousands of years, perhaps this is the most surprising thing, I have heard from the Tartar cockroaches of the Northern Wasteland that their ancestors had tried to conquer this pass for thousands of years but could not. But the first time we Rakshasa people came here, they (the Han people) gave it up, this is the will of God, the will of God! ”

The eldest son, Arkaki, said with a smile: "Dad, the Han people have thrown away even the most important passes, there must be a big problem in the country, is it the plague that has taken almost everyone's lives?" Just as the plague once swept across the continent of Europa, a plague came down and more than a dozen principalities were wiped out? ”

"Speaking of which," said another son, Varianka, "it is time to admire our ancestors, who made us strong and insulated from all diseases, and made us inherently immune to the plague." ”

Arkaki said: "Dad, if we occupy the Central Plains, will the emperor give us the Central Plains and make it our territory?" ”

Bear King Ivanov smiled and said: "Our occupation of the Central Plains is a surprise for him, as long as we give him enough gold, silver and jewelry, he will definitely seal the Central Plains to us." If the Central Plains gives it to me, I will give the north of the Dragon River to Arkaki, and the south of the Dragon River to Varianka, and I will be the Khan King above the Dragon Capital of Shenghan, what do you think? ”

The two sons shouted excitedly: "Dad, we will definitely occupy the Central Plains." ”

At this time, Markov, the commander of the ten thousand horses, ran in and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness the Bear King, I have a piece of good news to tell you, the cockroaches in the north of the country have formed a cavalry of 60,000 people to rush over, and they heard that after we conquered the Two Wolf Pass, there was no civil war, and they unanimously asked to follow us into the Central Plains. These profit-chasing cockroaches are simply ridiculous, should we get rid of them? ”

Ivanov shook his head and said: "No, the population of the Central Plains is millions of people, and we need cockroaches to exterminate the people of the Central Plains for us." These cockroaches have been eager to step into the Central Plains for thousands of years, so we followed their wishes, let them enter the Central Plains, let them burn and loot at will, and let them fight to the death with the Han army in the Central Plains. Remember, let them dog-eat-dog fight to the last man. ”

Arkaki said: "The Wuhuan people have also done this, but it's a pity that the Wuhuan people are timid and have too many scruples. ”

Ivanov pointed to his head and said: "The Wuhuan people are too smart, and on the battlefield, the too smart one, although he lives a long time, can never become a king." The people who become kings must be those warriors who have no feelings, such as the Rakshasas. The crowd burst into laughter, and he said, "To show respect for the cockroaches, Arkaki, you personally lead them into the Central Plains." ”

"Yes, Daddy."

"I heard that the Beiyi people also want to enter the Central Plains, and for this reason they also fight with the Ya people, Varianka, you send someone to contact the Beiyi people and the Ya people, if they want to enter the Central Plains, we are very welcome, they can be like visiting the vegetable market, burning and looting in the Central Plains at will, except for land, they can do whatever they want."

"Okay, Dad." Arianca said.

At this time, outside the city of Longdu, Zhang Xiaowu personally led an army of 30,000 out of the city, and nearly 200,000 various rebels followed the Longdu Army to Ping'an County to confront the White Tiger Army. Zhang Xiaowu secretly let Ye Wanying go, and sent the old general Lang Cangyu as an envoy to the White Tiger Army barracks.

The White Tiger Army had 40,000 people on the surface, but in fact there were only more than 10,000 people, and they looked at the mighty camp of the Longdu army, the hundreds of thousands of silver-clothed guards and rebels dressed in white-clothed rattan armor, covering the sky and the sun endlessly, and their hearts suddenly trembled.

"You Guoying", "Beidifang", "Fuguifang" and other rebels initially boosted their morale, waving various flags, beating various musical instruments, and even occasionally a few high-drinking scholars and students sang a song to strengthen their momentum. They thought they could win easily, but then they saw the tragedy of a wave of thousands of people attacking Ping'an County and returning from defeat, so they were not so excited.

On the second day of the confrontation, Zhang Xiaowu sent two rebel armies, but the White Tiger Army only released three rounds of arrows, and the rebels turned around and fled, and the morale of the rebels plummeted. That night, one after another, people who had calmed down fled back to the city. Zhang Xiaowu let them go, and said to the scholars: "You are the pillars of the country, the battlefield is not what you are good at, leave it to us soldiers." ”

After hearing this, Hu Yanzhan reacted, he found Kang Tianen and said, "I think that the Lord of the Central Order wants to surrender. ”

"How do you judge?"

"Two defeats in two days, by no means the style of a ghost general, this person is extremely eager for victory, if he really fights, he will definitely take the lead in breaking the enemy. Then why is he defeated now, in fact, he is preparing for his surrender. Hu Yanzhan sneered, "I never thought that the ghost general would be so courageless, it would be a shame to serve him, I want to leave, are you willing to leave with me?" ”

Kang Tianen hesitated, Hu Yanzhan nodded and said, "I understand, I'll just go by myself." ”

Kang Tianen hurriedly said: "Brother Xian, why do you say that Linggong wants to surrender?" ”

Hu Yanzhan stretched out two fingers and said: "Two reasons, the first is that what he relies on is just the silver-clothed guard, and the silver-clothed guard is only more than 10,000 people, and the white tiger army is full of 100,000 people, if the white tiger army really storms over, can he silver-clothed guard stop it?" ”

"I can't."

"Secondly, if the White Tiger Army and the Silver Guards fight to the death, who will be damaged, it is not the Holy Han Empire. In order for the empire not to suffer losses and to see the inevitable defeat, Zhang Xiaowu will inevitably choose the most appropriate solution for the country and the nation, which is to surrender conditionally. Maybe in the future, he will be driven out of the imperial court, be a state guard, and be his free king. ”

"This ......"

"So this is what I look down on him the most, I don't dare to break the net, I don't dare to gamble on a game."

Kang Tianen smiled bitterly: "But if he gambles, it will be at the expense of national fortune." ”

"So what?" Hu Yanzhan was coldly angry, "My generation of men, how can I be such a mother-in-law, if a man is not standing at the peak of power, it is not as interesting as a grass people." If you don't be a human being, you might as well be a ghost among ghosts. ”
