Chapter Fifty-Eight: There Are Tigers in Front and Pursuers in the Back
"General, don't be impulsive!" Several people tried their best to hold Wuhuan and dissuade them in every possible way, which finally calmed down the anger in Wuhuan heart.
"The general must take into account the overall situation, even if Chu Yixi is indeed a villain, but if we repel other tribes and annex Youzhou and even Chang'an in the future, wouldn't we be sitting on the world!"
Everyone persuaded Wuhuan to consider the overall situation, and Wuhuan walked outside his camp tent and looked at the scene in the barracks.
The soldiers sat on the ground and frowned, the granaries were almost empty, there was nothing left, and the ones who went out in search of food brought back only wild vegetables that had no nutritional value.
Almost all the medics in the medical camp had not closed their eyes for days, and the wounded soldiers were lying on the ground, moaning and groaning.
Is this what he wants to see? Wu Huan covered his heart with one hand, he only felt that he saw his subordinates, those soldiers suffering like this, not to mention that they were still his own people.
Everyone was afraid that Wuhuan would make some radical moves, so they hurriedly chased him out, but saw Wuhuan standing there alone in a daze, without saying a word.
"General......
“…… According to that map, go and get herbs and food. Under the entanglement, Wuhuan still made this decision, for the sake of the Ebony Zhen clan, this deal is still worth it.
With Wu Huan's consent, his men took a group of people to a hidden place in the suburbs according to the instructions on the map.
"This is it." The soldiers looked around and found an abandoned mansion, which was the place shown on the map where food and herbs were hidden.
When they entered the house, there were walls on all sides, and just when the soldier thought that he was in the wrong place or that Chu Yixi was playing tricks on him, he found an inconspicuous bulge on the ground.
Got a secret door? The soldier opened the secret passage and followed the extended staircase, and sure enough, he found grain and herbs as high as a hill.
Seeing this, the soldiers seemed to see mountains of gold and silver, and saw hope, and they cheered and carried these things to the cart, and then were pulled back to the barracks by horses.
"General! Look, that Chu Yixi didn't fool us, there were really a lot of grains, grasses and medicinal materials there, and we couldn't bring them back at once, so we only carried half of them. ”
Looking at the life-saving things that were pulled back in batches, a rare smile finally appeared on Wu Huan's hazy face. Great, the Ebony clan is saved.
Wuhuan ordered: "Hurry up and distribute the food to the various camps, and then send the herbs to the military medical camp, and as for the rest, quickly transport them back to the camp, hurry." ”
"Yes!" The soldiers scattered in all directions, each doing his own thing.
With sufficient supplies, the people of the Ebony tribe regained their strength, everyone was no longer the same languishing appearance as before, and the camp gradually regained its vitality, which is also what Wuhuan wanted to see.
Chu Yixi's side, naturally, learned through an informant that Wuhuan had used the map he gave him to take away the herbs and food that he had treasured for a long time, and this time he really pulled a lot of that Wuhuan handful.
It's just that now, he is still trapped here and can't get out, and Wuhuan has not been heard from since then, and it seems that he is so focused on reorganizing the military camp that he has completely forgotten about him, a great benefactor.
"Master, this Wuhuan shouldn't break his word, right?"
What the informant said was also what Chu Yixi was most worried about, people's hearts were unpredictable, and Wuhuan was so scheming, no one could guess what he was thinking.
But it is not a way to drag it out like this, the sky has changed outside, but I stay here like a dead corpse, sitting and waiting for death.
Chu Yixi naturally couldn't squat, he instructed the informant: "You go to the side and knock on the side to remind him." ”
"Yes."
After the informant received the order, he sent another letter into Wuhuan's military camp, saying in Chu Yixi's tone.
"After many days, it is clear that the generals have benefited from me and reinvigorated the Ebony Clan, and we must not forget the deal between us."
Wu Huan looked at the letter in his hand, and then threw it into the brazier on the side, only to see that the letter paper was gradually burned, leaving only a faint fragrance of ink.
"It's not time yet." Wu Huan stood in front of the bed with his hands behind his back, watching the generals training their troops.
Naturally, he will not break his word, he has always been a trustworthy person, but the time has not yet come.
Chu Yixi is not difficult to understand, he is a grass on the wall, whoever can be beneficial to him, he will slap him.
If he hadn't come to make a deal with him, how would Wuhuan have thought that this seemingly useless person actually had so many places to use behind him.
If he is released now, he will help others deal with him in the future in Tibet, wouldn't it be a blockage for himself.
"Don't ......hurry," he murmured, his voice as thin as a mosquito that only he could hear.
In Youzhou City, the lives of the people are peaceful, Lu Mingshuang stood on the city gate, looking at the people of Youzhou City who were living and working peacefully on one side of the city gate, and then looking at the other side, nothing happened outside Youzhou City.
Since that day, Wuhuan has not come to harass Youzhou for more than ten days, and the big stones hanging in everyone's hearts are almost about to fall, but Lu Mingshuang is not.
A trace of worry flashed in her eyes, with what she knew about Wu Huan, he was definitely not such a patient person.
Back in the mansion, Lu Li, Lu Mingting, Shen Yu, Youzhou Mu and others were gathered together, and they happened to be discussing the topic of Wuhuan.
Shen Yu said: "There is no movement in Wuhuan this time, and the person sent to investigate only said that he has been rectifying the soldiers, and he has stayed in the barracks without taking the next step. Isn't it that they are preparing some big plan? ”
Lu Mingting pondered for a while and analyzed: "No, do you remember that day Wuhuan suddenly withdrew his troops? The number of troops he brought that day was completely enough for a hard battle, but it was strange that he withdrew his troops before he even started fighting. ”
Indeed, retreating without a fight is definitely not something that a hard-nosed man like Wuhuan did, and the morale is boosted but the troops are withdrawn, is it ......
"Today, the Ebony clan is the largest and largest of all the foreign races. At the moment, the foreigners must not know about them, but they are the target of the foreigners. ”
"So I guess that Wuhuan is very likely to have chaos in the rear, so he will suddenly withdraw his troops, and the battle with other tribes will definitely lose his troops, so he will stay in the barracks for a few days."
Lu Mingting's analysis was the head, and everyone nodded in agreement when they listened.
Perhaps it was because Wuhuan had been pressing Youzhou too tightly, so everyone forgot that there were enemies of other clans behind the Ebony True Clan that needed to be faced.
The Ebony Zhen clan can be said to have fierce tigers in front of them and pursuers in the back, and Wuhuan is also in dire straits, struggling to move forward.
