In the county office of Jiangfeng County, Xiongyi County, Xiangzhou, Wumeng Ergu, the western king of the Qingyi tribe, said in a deep voice to the Tusi Guoji Wusa of the Guxi tribe: "Guoji Tusi, I hope you can restrain the army of your Guxi tribe, and stop burning and looting the people of the Jin Kingdom. ”

The highest leader of the Eastern Barbarian tribes is called Tusi, which is equivalent to the Great Khan of the various nomadic peoples on the grassland, and under the Tusi, there is also the Great King, which is equivalent to the suzerains of the various nomadic peoples on the grassland, for example, the Qingyi people have four kings, namely the Eastern King, the Southern King, the Western King and the Northern King.

Among the various ethnic groups in the Eastern Barbarians, only the two strong clans of the Qingyi and the Bai Miao have the rank of king, and the other Eastern Barbarian tribes are under the Tusi, and the most powerful ones are directly the patriarchs of the various tribes.

The Guxi tribe is one of the many Eastern barbarian ethnic groups attached to the Qingyi nationality, the strength of the Guxi tribe in the various affiliated ethnic groups of the Qingyi nationality, should be regarded as one of the best, can easily gather 100,000 troops, this time the Guxi tribe responded to the invitation of the Qingyi nationality to send troops to the Jin country, and gathered 100,000 Guxi warriors.

People of all ethnic groups in the Eastern Barbarians generally use compound surnames, such as Wumeng Ergu, the western king of the Qingyi people, Wumeng is his surname, and Ergu is his name.

The Tusi Guo Jiwusa of the Guxi tribe shrugged his shoulders and said: "King Wumeng, our Guxi tribe has a poor grain harvest this year, and this time we sent troops to the Jin Kingdom, just to get some grain from the people of the Jin Kingdom, and the local division can't watch our Guxi people go hungry!" ”

Wumeng Ergu, the western king of the Qingyi tribe, frowned and said, "Guoji Tusi, didn't our Qingyi tribe just support a large amount of grain from your Guxi tribe?" ”

Tusiguo Jiwusa of the Guxi tribe immediately said: "King Wumeng, the batch of grain given by the Qingyi tribe is indeed a lot, but our Guxi tribe has a population of almost one million, and that batch of grain plus the grain in the hands of our Guxi tribe can prevent our Guxi tribe from starving to death, and if you want to eat enough, you can only grab the food of the Jin people." ”

Wumeng Ergu, the king of the western part of the Qingyi tribe, pondered for a while and said: "That's it, Guoji Tusi, our Qingyi tribe will try to raise another batch of food support for your Guxi tribe, I hope Guoji Tusi can restrain the warriors of the Guxi tribe and stop plundering the people of the Jin country in the occupied area, our Qingyi tribe sent troops to the Jin country this time to save my sister Wumeng Isa and Wumeng Gemeng, but we don't want to become mortal enemies with the Jin country!" ”

Wumeng Ergu is the son of the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Ago, and Wumeng Isa and Wumeng are both the daughters of the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Ago, and they can also be said to be the princesses of the Qingyi tribe.

Umeng Isa and Umeng Gemeng were suddenly attacked when they were traveling not long ago, and hundreds of guards protecting the two Qingyi princesses were all killed, while Umeng Isa and Umeng disappeared mysteriously, and they were almost certainly taken away by the attackers, after the investigation of the Qingyi people, it was found that there was a Jin caravan that entered the area under the jurisdiction of the Qingyi tribe was the most suspicious, and after the attack on Umeng Isa and Umeng Gemeng, this caravan of the Jin people also disappeared mysteriously.

The two sisters Wumeng Isa and Wumeng have the color of the country and the city, and are very famous beauties of the Qingyi people, and the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Aguo is also very fond of Wumeng Isa and Wumeng Gemeng, after the two daughters were attacked and disappeared, the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Ago was extremely angry, and learned that a caravan of the Jin people was seriously suspicious, and immediately mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops of the Qingyi people, and began to search for the caravan of the Jin people in the area under the jurisdiction of the Qingyi people, but unfortunately in the end, the caravan of the Jin people was not found by the army of the Qingyi people.

The two princesses of the Qingyi tribe disappeared, and it was impossible for the Qingyi tribe to give up the investigation, and the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Aguo then sent someone to send an official letter to the Jin court, asking the Jin court to hand over the two princesses of the Qingyi tribe, Wumeng Isa and Wumeng Gemeng, otherwise the Jin Kingdom would wait to bear the wrath of the Qingyi tribe!

The Qingyi people sent the official letter to the Jin court for almost a month, and did not get any reply from the Jin state, so the angry Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Ago, immediately mobilized more than 1.5 million elite troops of the Qingyi people, and recruited hundreds of thousands of troops attached to the Qingyi people's various Eastern Barbarian nationalities, led by the two sons of Tusi Wumeng Ago, the king of the west Wumeng Ergu and the king of the south Wumeng Kezi, the army was divided into two roads, and the king of the west Wumengergu attacked Xiangzhou of the Jin State on this road. The southern king of Wumeng Kezi invaded Fuzhou of the Jin State all the way.

Guxi Tusi Guo Jiwusa said a little unwillingly: "King Wumeng, why be so polite to the people of the Jin Kingdom, since the people of the Jin Kingdom dare to plunder the two princesses, we should teach the people of the Jin Kingdom a hard lesson, otherwise the court of the Jin Kingdom will not be afraid." ”

Wumeng Ergu, the king of the western part of the Qing Yi tribe, shook his head and said: "If it was a few years ago, I would not have stopped your Guxi tribe, and now although the Jin court looks like a strong outsider, but the Jin army's army is not easy to provoke, in case the Jin court sends the army to fight with our Qingyi people, and the army sees that we are looting the people of the Jin country, and our Qingyi people will not die, it is not what our Qingyi people want." ”

Guxi Tusi Guo Jiwusa frowned and said: "The Broken Army is a big problem, I heard that more than 100 nomadic peoples on the grassland, including the Xiongnu, Xianbei and Khitan tribes, have formed a cavalry army of tens of millions, and they are all bleeding in front of the Broken Army, if the Broken Army enters Xiangzhou of the Jin Kingdom, it will indeed be a trouble for us, and we will have to return to the 100,000 mountains if we don't get it, after all, the army of our various ethnic groups is best at mountain warfare, while Xiangzhou is mostly plain. ”

Wumeng Ergu, the king of the western part of the Qingyi tribe, nodded and said: "Although our Qingyi tribe is not afraid of the Broken Army, there is no need to fight to the death with the Broken Army, the purpose of our dispatch this time is to let the Jin people send my two sisters back, so I hope that the King of Wumeng can make the warriors of the Guxi tribe restrain themselves." ”

Guxi Tusi Guo Jiwusa sighed and said, "Okay then, the local division will give an order to stop the raid!" By the way, now the Jin people don't know why the Qingyi people sent troops? ”

Wumeng Ergu, the king of the western Qing Yi tribe, nodded his head slightly: "I have already asked people to let go of the county order of Jiang Feng County, and he will tell the reason why our Qing Yi tribe sent troops to the Jin court!" ”

In the state pastor's mansion in Gongyang City, the capital of Xiangzhou Prefecture, Feng Ziheng, the governor of Xiangzhou, asked Shen Zitong, the Taishou of Xiongyi County, Xiangzhou, with a shocked face: "Is there such a thing?" Dongban's invasion this time is really just to find the two princesses of the Qingyi tribe? ”

Shen Zitong, the Taishou of Xiongyi County, Xiangzhou, smiled bitterly and said: "The Qingyi people put Wu Keliang, the county commander of Jiangfeng County, back, and let Wu Keliang convey the real reason for the invasion of the Eastern Barbarians.

Feng Ziheng, the governor of Xiangzhou, shook his head and said, "Based on the inference of the Qing Yi clan alone, how can we conclude that the two princesses of the Qing Yi clan were plundered by the vanishing caravan of our Great Jin?" What's more, even if that caravan plundered the two princesses of the Qingyi tribe, how much does it have to do with our Great Jin Dynasty and our Xiangzhou? ”

Shen Zitong, the Taishou of Xiongyi County, sighed and said: "The Qingyi clan will not reason with us, I think we should hurry up and report this matter to the imperial court!" This is really a disaster from heaven, where can we find the two princesses of the Qingyi tribe? ”

In a conference hall in the mansion of Dou Yan, the chief lieutenant of the Ministry of Rites in Canglong City, Dou Yan said to Wang Zhihuan, the chief lieutenant of the Ministry of Rites, with an angry face: "Captain Wang, what are the officials of your Ministry of Rites doing? Why didn't you tell you about the two princesses asked by the Qingyi tribe to you, the captain of the Ministry of Rites? If our imperial court had known about this earlier, perhaps we would have been able to avoid this invasion of the Eastern Barbarians! ”

Wang Zhihuan, the captain of the Ministry of Rites, said in a deep voice: "It is indeed the responsibility of our Ministry of Rites, after the investigation of this Taiwei, it is a subordinate official of the Ministry of Rites, after receiving the official letter from the Qingyi tribe, he put this official letter in the wrong place in a careless manner, and as a result, this Taiwei did not see this official letter until last night, and now the subordinate official has been cut off his head." ”

At this time, Yang Zhong, the chief lieutenant of the Ministry of Officials, said bitterly: "Our imperial court has finally been stable for a few days, but there has been another Dongban invasion!" Now what? The Qingyi people asked our court for two missing princesses, but we have no clue about it! ”

Wang Zhihuan, the chief lieutenant of the Ministry of Rites, snorted coldly and said, "The Qingyi clan is simply too deceitful!" Their two princesses are missing, no matter who we want in Dajin! And it is not certain that the Great Jin caravan robbed the two princesses of the Qingyi tribe, the Qingyi tribe is simply a crime that wants to be added! ”

Dou Yan said categorically: "No matter what, immediately order all places to search for the whereabouts of the two princesses of the Qingyi tribe, and ask Feng Ziheng, the pastor of Xiangzhou Prefecture, and Bimo, the pastor of Fuzhou, to quickly send someone to get in touch with the Qingyi tribe and strive to quell this invasion of the Eastern Barbarians." ”

Sun Mingtao, the chief lieutenant of the Ministry of Works, then said: "I don't think it will be so easy for Dongban to return to the 100,000 mountains, after all, this invasion of Dongban is mainly based on the Qingyi tribe, and the Qingyi tribe is to find the missing two princesses, but our Dajin has no news about the two princesses of the Qingyi tribe at this time, I don't know if Liu Ji and Zhang Mingqi agreed to send troops to support Xiangzhou and Fuzhou?" ”

Dou Yan then shook his head and said: "Liu Ji and Zhang Mingqi have not responded to whether they are willing to send troops, the old man hopes that he can solve this invasion of the Eastern Barbarians without sending troops from the Broken Army and the Southeast Xiang Army, after all, Liu Ji and Zhang Mingqi both have a lot of appetites, and the price of the imperial court to let the Broken Army and the Southeast Xiang Army send troops will definitely not be small." ”

After receiving the will of the imperial court, Feng Ziheng, the governor of Xiangzhou, and Bimo, the governor of Fuzhou, immediately sent people to contact the western king of the Qingyi tribe, Wumeng Ergu, and the southern king of the Qingyi people, hoping to eliminate the misunderstanding between the Jin state and the Qingyi people.

However, the attitude of the Qing Yi people is very resolute, and the Jin State can only return the two daughters of the Qing Yi Tusi Wumeng Ago to the hands of the Qing Yi people intact, and hand over the real culprit who kidnapped the two Qing Yi princesses, and the coalition army of the Eastern Barbarians dominated by the Qing Yi will withdraw from Zhezhou and Fuzhou of the Jin State, otherwise the coalition forces of the Eastern Barbarian tribes will not collect their troops and return to the 100,000 mountains.

In the state pastor's mansion in Fukang City, the capital of Fuzhou, Fuzhou Prefecture Mu Bimo said in a deep voice to Jiang Jian, the Taishou of Qinghua County, Fuzhou: "Jiang Taishou, the southern king of the Qingyi tribe, Wumengkezi's attitude is very resolute, as long as our Jin Kingdom does not hand over the two Qingyi princesses, it is impossible for the Qingyi and other Eastern Barbarian tribes attached to the Qingyi to withdraw from our Fuzhou, presumably the armies of the Eastern Barbarian tribes will soon set off the next round of offensives, and it is best for you and me to join forces to resist the invasion of the Eastern Barbarian Tribes. ”

Fuzhou is located in the northeast of the Jin Kingdom, the north of Fuzhou is adjacent to Xiangzhou, the south of Fuzhou is bordered by Yizhou, the whole Fuzhou has a total of seven counties, a city refers to the state capital Fukang City.

At this time, there were only two major forces left in Fuzhou, namely Bi Mo, the governor of the state, and Jiang Jian, the Taishou of Qinghua County, the army under Bi Mo controlled one city and three counties in Fuzhou, and Jiang Jian, the Taishou of Qinghua County, controlled the remaining four counties of Fuzhou.

According to the comparison of the strength of the two, Jiang Jian, the Taishou of Qinghua County, is definitely a head higher than Bi Mo, the state pastor.

Jiang Jian, the Taishou of Qinghua County, nodded and said: "Don't worry, since I, Jiang Jian, can come to Fukang City today, it means that I, Jiang Jian, am willing to join forces with Lord Zhou Mu to fight against the coalition forces of the various ethnic groups in the Eastern Barbarians, but the armies of the Eastern Barbarians who invaded Fuzhou are as high as more than one million, even if the two of us are united, we will suffer very much in terms of troops, and if we don't get reinforcements, the situation in Fuzhou can only get worse and worse." ”

Zhou Mu Bimo immediately sighed and said: "This official has done his best, and only 200,000 troops have been gathered so far, most of which are newly recruited recruits, and in the face of the million army of the Eastern Barbarian tribes, there is really no confidence. ”

Jiang Jian, the Taishou of Qinghua County, said in a deep voice: "This Taishou has also gathered about 250,000 troops, and there are also a considerable number of them, all of whom are young and strong people from various cities who have just been recruited. ”

After a pause, Jiang Jian, the Taishou of Qinghua County, asked: "Isn't there news that the imperial court is ready to let the Southeast Xiang Army send troops to aid our Fuzhou?" ”

Zhou Mu Bimo nodded slightly and said: "The imperial court does have such an idea, after all, judging from the current situation of the imperial court, it is impossible to send enough forbidden troops to Fuzhou and Xiangzhou, which have suffered from the invasion of the Eastern Barbarians, at the same time, and can only count on the two fierce tigers of the Southeast Xiang Army and the Broken Army. ”
