Chapter 116: Accumulating hatred
The iron-blooded king of Donghu, lying on a wide bearded bed, his hair was gray and scattered, his face was wrinkled, there was no blood, his thin body was slightly thin, no matter how he looked at it, he looked like an ordinary little old man.
It's just that his spirit is still very good, and a pair of eyes sunken into his sockets are still as sharp as a vulture, deep, and unsearchable, and no one will guess what he thinks, and no one dares to despise this thin old man.
In the big tent, a private banquet was being held, but there were only three people, and Attila was casually leaning on the bed in a thin shirt, with a desk in front of her, on which wine and meat were placed.
With a short knife in her hand, Antilla cut the pieces of meat, stuffed them into her mouth one by one, and ate them intently.
Among the three, apart from Antira, there were only two people, Zhuolig and Amur, Zhuolig was cross-legged opposite Antilahu's bed, and Amr stood on the side of Hu's bed, and the two of them also ate with relish.
Both of them are Antilla's henchmen, and their status in Antira's heart is transcendent, far surpassing that of Ultila's younger brother Borshu, who has a very high status in the army.
Not long ago, Zhuo Lige returned from the western battlefield, this famous warrior of Donghu defeated the main force of the Xiongnu on the western front in a battle, and established Donghu's hegemony in the grassland.
Amur is responsible for guarding Hunhe County and Xiapi County on the eastern front, preventing various tribes from ****, and ensuring that Zhuo Lige has no worries about consequences on the western front.
"Zhuo Lige, how is this Yanguo wine better than my Donghuma milk wine?" On the bed, Antila, who was eating attentively, suddenly asked, her voice was not loud, but it was very deep and deep, and her tone was peaceful, but it had an irresistible majesty.
"The fragrance is overflowing, mellow and delicious, and it is the best quality!" Shaking the wine glass, the clear water wine is transparent and crystalline, exuding a rich aroma, Zhuo Lige responded with a smile.
"Amur, what do you say?"
"The king, the minister heard that this Yan wine is from the hands of Emperor Yan, and it can make such a fine wine, this Emperor Yan is extraordinary, so I have to guard against it!" Amr put down the short knife in his hand and said firmly.
Listening to Amur's words, Antila, who had always been calm, suddenly raised her head and laughed. "Amur, that's right, the boy of Yan Country does have some ability, and with his own strength, he stirred up the northern land, but he enjoyed it. Right now, are you also looking forward to war in your heart, hoping to go south to the Central Plains? "
"No, it's okay to go south, it's not okay to chase the Central Plains, the East Hu is strong, the Zhao State is stronger, in this battle, the Zhao State is the main force to eliminate the Huns." Amr replied briskly.
At that time, he had seen the strength of the Xiongnu on the Western Front, and the Donghu people could not stop the Hun cavalry at all, but no matter how powerful the Hun cavalry was, they were killed nearly 300,000 by Li Mu of Zhao State in a battle.
"What do you think?"
"The people of the Central Plains are very smart and dare not destroy the Yan State, just because of the existence of the overlord of the Northern Land, the Zhao State. If the king wants to go south and seize the north of Jin, stop at Shaoliang County, and eat the cicadas step by step, but not deeply. Zhuolige's face was heavy.
The Xiongnu, Donghu, Rong, and various tribes on the grassland all know that the northern Jin Dynasty and even the Central Plains are a piece of fat meat, which is the easiest to eat, but for a hundred years, the existence of the Zhao State has made all the tribes can only bury this wish in their hearts.
Whoever dares to take action, Zhao Guo, a lion lying in the north, will jump up mercilessly, tear the other party to pieces, and often be injured by the tiger.
"I thought so too!" Antila patted the bed and said with a smile: "However, the threat of the Xiongnu has been solved, but the tribe is fighting openly and secretly, and a war must be launched to divert the tribal contradictions!" ”
"With the king here, who dares to make a fuss, Zhuo Lige has cleared all obstacles for the king!"
Antilla looked up, glanced at Drolig, and then looked up again, and for a few moments before shaking her head with a faint smile. "I'm old, I won't live for a few years, and some things have to be solved after all!"
"King, your dragon and horse spirit is still early to get old!" Zhuolig smiled bitterly, but he knew as clearly as a mirror what Antilla was saying.
"It's almost sixty, how can you not be old? Zhuo Lige, which of my sons do you say has my ability to lead Donghu to a higher position in the future, and even compete for dominance in the Central Plains? Antila asked with a smile, but the question was very serious, serious as the future of the Empire.
Zhuo Lige was shocked, his expression became nervous, his face turned pale, this matter is too big, although he secretly supports the eldest prince, he can say this matter positively, especially in front of King Donghu, he can't help but be afraid in his heart.
Since ancient times, the monarch is like a tiger, no matter how close you are, you don't talk about the monarch's reverse scales, and the crown prince is often one of the monarch's reverse scales.
"The King?"
"Zhuolig, you and Amur are the people I trust the most, but it's okay to say it, I'll listen to it, don't have any worries, no fourth person will know about today's events." Antilla smiled and nodded, signaling Zolig to speak freely.
Zhuo Lige pondered for a long time, and said cautiously: "The seven sons of the king, the eldest prince Tallinn and the seventh prince Tara are the best. ”
"Who do you support?"
"Tallinn!" This time, Zhuo Lige did not hesitate, "The eldest prince is calm and calm, both civil and military, and skilled in handling political affairs."
"Amur, what about you?"
"The Seventh Prince!" Amr glanced at Zolig. "The Seventh Prince is brave, loved by his subjects, and has a very high prestige among the people and the army of Donghu!"
Antila's two important ministers, one civil and one martial, have diametrically opposite opinions on the matter of the crown prince.
After a while, Antilla raised her head again, glanced at the two cronies, and said with a smile: "Borshu is also very active, my father loved my little brother very much, and praised him for his ability to win the world with his ability to win the world." ”
Zhuolig and Amr looked at each other and lowered their heads.
Borshu is a taboo for the Donghu aristocracy and even the royal family, and speaking of Borshu, it can't help but remind people of the time when Antila, after Nadal's death, seized the royal power from the young Borshu and ascended to the throne of Donghu.
In Donghu, except for a few people who dare to mention it, most people keep their mouths shut, and even Zhuo Lige and the right-hand men of King Amur Donghu do not dare to talk about this matter in the open.
Antilla grabbed her pale hair and said, "The tribe of Borshu is not small in strength in Donghu, with millions of people and hundreds of thousands of cavalry!" Among the Donghu tribes, the call for succession to the throne is very high! Once I am old, Tallinn and Tallinn will never be the opponent of Borshu, and if the three kings compete for the throne, Donghu is afraid that it will fall into chaos again. ”
"Yes, in the battle of the Huns, if it weren't for Borshu to cut off the connection between the main force of the Huns and the left flank, the minister would not be able to easily defeat hundreds of thousands of Hun troops." Zhuo Lige said, he still admires Borshu in his heart, but he only admires it, in the face of major rights and wrongs, his position has always been very firm, otherwise he would not become a close confidant of Antila.
Antila smiled, fell silent again, and kept waving the short knife in her hand, cutting the slices of meat and stuffing them into her mouth, eating a little in a hurry.
After a while, he slowly raised his head: "Bor's bow horse is skillful, known as a strategy, he will bring hope to Donghu, maybe one day the horse will set foot in the Central Plains and determine the world!" ”
Zhuo Lige and Amr were shocked in their hearts, their expressions changed greatly, they glanced at each other, and they probably knew in their hearts that the king was preparing to return the power to Borshu after a hundred years!
Even if the two of them supported different princes respectively, they had to obey the will of the king in the matter of the crown prince, and besides, once Borshu established the status of the crown prince, there were 300,000 male soldiers in his hands, and 500,000 people under the command of the king of Shangdonghu, Donghu, no one could shake his position.
Half-squinting, swept the expressions of Zhuolig and the two, and after what he had said, Antilla took out a handwritten book from his arms and threw it to Zhuolig.
Zhuo Lige took the handbook, glanced at it, his expression changed greatly, and he roared: "The Yan army is so bold, if it weren't for the fact that there was no one in Donghu, he would dare to take the initiative to invade the border of Donghu." After reading it, he handed the paper to Amur.
"Yes, this kid is capable, but he is too crazy, king, he must be taught a lesson."
"This Lin Feng is the kid who defeated the Rong tribe twice, this year, and won the victory in the north and south battlefields, I will take the opportunity to trim it, and I will accept it when he sees it, I don't want to be active again, in a month, he has defeated our three small tribes in a row, and nearly six or seven thousand Donghu warriors have fallen." Antilla said very casually, as if six or seven thousand lives were not worth mentioning in his eyes.
"King, this person is bold enough to invade the land of Donghu, and he can't help but teach him a lesson." Zhuo Lige said sharply, his expression angry.
Antilla laughed, without the slightest anger in her tone, and asked Zhuolig, "Are you angry?" ”
"Isn't the king angry? Six or seven thousand lives, tens of thousands of old and weak women and children! Tens of thousands of gold and silver horses! Amr was puzzled, but he was also angry, and he couldn't control the anger in his heart.
"King, Lin Feng is tired of being crooked, and the minister asked to bring 50,000 cavalry to sweep through the north of Yan Kingdom." Zhuolig gritted his teeth.
Antila didn't answer Zhuo Lige's words, grabbed the cotton cloth and wiped the short knife, put it away, and said, "This is called Lin Feng, by the way, it's called Lin Feng, it's a little interesting, he has been on the throne for three years, he was unknown two years ago, and in the past year, with thirty or forty thousand remnants of his army, he defeated the Rong tribe and attacked Jin and Zheng, and now he has no scruples and has sent people to destroy several of our small tribes, and his cavalry has dared to penetrate hundreds of miles into my Donghu area." ”
"The cavalry of the Yan Kingdom is also called cavalry, that is, my Donghu cavalry did not make a move, and once it was shot, it ensured that the Yan army would be bloody. Zhuo Lige snorted.
"Nope! Antilla shook her finger, "Zhuo Lige is a general, don't be careless about the enemy, a year ago, the cavalry of the Yan Kingdom could indeed not be regarded as cavalry, but in the past six months, he has fought several battles in a row, and it is also very fierce, this Lin Feng is still brazenly sending troops when he knows that Donghu dominates the grassland, this person is indeed a little different.
The reason why I did not move was to accumulate the hatred of the Donghu people, and when the hatred reached unbearable, it would turn into endless power, and at that time, it was a good opportunity to send troops. "
