Makino pointed ahead and explained, "This is the ancestral land of our tribe, called the Valley of the Good People. This place is surrounded by mountains on all sides, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are caves and tunnels dug in the valley, so that when the valley mouth encounters an enemy attack, it is convenient to quickly retreat into the deep mountains in the rear. ”

In the middle of the night, Ren Zhen couldn't see the surrounding terrain clearly, and it was dark everywhere, "You abandoned your original village and hid in the valley, has the situation become so serious?" ”

Makino smiled bitterly: "If it weren't for the last resort, with our style of acting, we wouldn't have pulled down our faces and went to the Central Plains for help." We originally thought that as long as the Northern Tang Ken sent reinforcements, we would be able to turn the tide of the war, but who would have thought that Baiyun City would intervene again......"

He sighed, frustration palpable. When the people who accompanied him heard this, they also fell silent.

The desolate people are withdrawn and stubborn, haunted by the origin of their ancestors' exile, and have been hostile to the Central Plains people for generations. The War Song Department asked Makino to go to the Northern Tang Dynasty, which in itself showed that they were cornered, and the involvement of the powerful White Cloud City made it even worse, making them powerless to parry.

If it weren't for this natural danger as a barrier to take refuge, they would have been driven out long ago.

The people came to the valley.

Ren Zhen stared at the fortifications built against the cliffs by the light of the fire, and noticed that the outfit of the patrol guard was somewhat familiar, it should be the 10,000 tiger guards led by Makino himself.

"The group of strong men I sent were ambushed by Baiyun City, suffered heavy casualties, and had to withdraw from the Arakawa. I heard that Emperor Yun has always lived in seclusion and does not interfere in tribal disputes, why did he go against the norm this time and personally come forward to make an enemy of us? ”

In the Battle of Chang'an, he passed out early and failed to witness Yun Yin's true face. He wanted to know what Baiyun City was for, colluding with the Southern Jin Dynasty.

Makino led the way, led him to the depths of the valley, and replied: "Afterwards, we sent people to Baiyun City to negotiate and beg Emperor Yun to remain neutral, but his subordinates said that he can only be the master of the eight hundred miles of barren rivers, and no one is allowed to form an alliance with the Central Plains forces, which is the biggest taboo!" ”

Ren Zhen frowned, "So, he didn't target your tribe, he just wanted to drive the Central Plains people away?" As far as I know, there are also people in Arakawa who collude with the Southern Jin Dynasty, why haven't I seen them intervene? ”

Makino clenched his fists and said indignantly: "He's pretending to be fair!" What drove away the Central Plains people, in the final analysis, it is not because he is the strongest and has no fear. As long as he can get tribute from most tribes, he doesn't care about the survival of our tribe! ”

Tribute...... Hearing this word, Ren Zhen's heart moved slightly, and his face did not show it.

Makino suddenly stopped, realized that he was excited, forgot the most important thing, and asked, "Sir, where are the soldiers and horses you brought stationed?" To be on the safe side, why don't you transfer them into the valley as well? ”

Everyone around stared at Ren Zhen, and their faces were full of anticipation.

In their opinion, Ren Zhen, a big man, personally went out, which shows that he attaches great importance to this matter, and will definitely select elite soldiers to enter Sichuan, and this time the War Song Department is looking forward to a savior.

Ren Zhen shook his head, "I came alone, without a single soldier." ”

"What?"

Everyone was excited for a long time, and when they heard this, their mood fell to the bottom and became more and more depressed. Single-handedly, they dared to break into the barren river, and the people of the Central Plains were too arrogant and regarded the barren clan battle as a playhouse!

Makino's expression changed drastically, he couldn't believe his ears, and asked in a trembling voice: "Sir, we can't afford to make such a big joke......"

Ren Zhen said calmly: "I'm serious. ”

When a big man heard this, he did not hide his dissatisfaction, and mocked: "In the middle of the night, let's get excited in vain, and run out of the bed to meet the savior!" Alas, they are scattered, and they all go home and sleep! ”

After that, he glanced at Ren Zhen intentionally or unintentionally, and left abruptly.

When the others saw this, they also sighed and parted unhappily.

No one believed that with just one young man, the situation in Arakawa could be reversed. They originally thought that Makino had met a great big man in the Central Plains, but now it seems that he is just a hairy boy who can't do anything about himself.

The enthusiastic atmosphere just now dissipated instantly, leaving only Ren Zhen and Makino standing there coldly.

"This ......" Makino looked embarrassed, scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Master Hou, don't get me wrong, in fact, everyone welcomes you very much, they thought that you would lead a large army to overwhelm the border, so it is inevitable that you will be disappointed......

Of course, he knew that Ren Zhen was far-sighted, and since he came alone, he had his own intentions, and he was definitely not to see the excitement of the War Song Department. The others scattered in a hurry, and he was sandwiched in the middle, not a person inside and out, and very faceless.

Ren Zhen patted him on the shoulder and smiled sincerely, "I don't have to explain, I won't think about it." Anyway, I'm here to help you, you don't need to care about other people's opinions, as long as you are satisfied. ”

Makino was relieved, and replied with his fists clenched: "I know the way of the Hou Ye, and it will be of great help to me that you come alone." ”

Ren Zhen turned around and looked at the valley, "Who is the person in charge of your tribe?" ”

Without waiting for Makino to answer, he deliberately added, "You have to be absolutely reliable." ”

Makino was slightly stunned, "It's our patriarch, called Shepherd." I'll take you to him! ”

He originally wanted to take Ren Zhen to the high priest, but when he heard this addition, for some reason, he suddenly felt that the patriarch seemed to be more reliable, so he changed his mind and led Ren Zhen to another direction.

He hadn't gone far before a voice sounded in Makino's head, "Brother, you have to understand that the Battle Song Tribe has reached this point and can't afford to lose anymore. We can't take any risks, we must be cautious! ”

Makino's body trembled, and he couldn't help but wonder if he could tell that Ren Zhen said this. The two are so close, and there are no outsiders around, so if you have something to say to your face, why make it so mysterious.

Ren Zhen guessed his mind and continued to transmit the sound with his divine thoughts.

"Listen to me, there is a reason why the War Song Department has been defeated repeatedly. Last time, I sent a group of kendo heroes to support, but I was led into the enemy's ambush circle, what does this mean? It shows that there are spies in your tribe who colluded with the enemy and leaked the news in advance. ”

Makino suddenly replied with a divine thought: "Afterwards, we have found out that the person sent to the joint that time was indeed bought by the dragon's throat and made a deed of eating inside and out. Don't worry, we will cut the traitors with a thousand knives and avenge the dead predecessors! ”

Ren Zhen sighed, "I don't want you to feel guilty and take revenge when I bring this matter up again. You have to realize that if the other party can buy a traitor, it may also install other traitors and lurk in the middle of this group of people. If you don't learn your lesson and leak the secrets again, the tragedy will happen again! ”

Makino broke out in a cold sweat, "It's dangerous!" I should have thought that if you had told the truth and let the traitors have information about the reinforcements, the enemy would have set up an ambush like last time! ”

Ren Zhen said faintly: "It's not enough to hide from the traitor." I'm not lying, I really didn't bring reinforcements, and now the situation is chaotic, and it is not yet time to send troops, so I can't act rashly. ”

Decide and then act, he went to danger alone, just to find out the situation first, formulate a battle plan, and then temporarily move the rescue troops is not too late, anyway, he and Haitang communicate and send a message, it is just a matter of thought, and there is no delay at all.

In this way, the news of the Northern Tang Dynasty's dispatch of troops will not be leaked in advance, and it will be able to achieve a divine soldier descending from the sky and killing the enemy by surprise.

Makino nodded and said reassuringly: "Master Hou is full of strategy, just follow your own plan, and if you have something to tell me." I'm a rough man, I don't know the art of war, you don't have to explain it to me, and I will never question your decision! ”

Being self-aware and doing what he can is what he is smart about.

Ren Zhen snorted and asked, "Let's talk about your patriarch first." Is that Faun Ji really reliable? ”
