Chapter 100: Civil Strife

No matter how long the lead of gunpowder is, if it ignites, sooner or later it will explode; No matter how small the seeds of conspiracy are, if they are planted, sooner or later they will grow into towering trees. Although he has not yet broken with General Xi on the surface, Touman's life is getting more and more difficult. With his lifeblood choked with supplies, Touman was often unable to support the clandestine team stationed outside, so much so that the number of regular drills had to drop again and again. And at this very weak time, a web of conspiracy is coming at him.

On this day, Touman returned from inspecting the tents, and before he had time to rest, Zha Yansheng suddenly summoned him to the big tent to discuss matters. Touman did not doubt him, readily agreed, and quickly rushed to the big tent.

The big tent was already full of people, and many nobles and generals in the clan were sitting in silence. When Touman walked into the big tent, most of the people showed extremely strange expressions. Touman saluted Zayan, then turned to look around, but didn't see his seat.

Just when Touman was puzzled, General Ji suddenly spoke: "Touman, don't look for it anymore, what we are discussing today is to remove Er from his position." ”

"Me?" Touman pointed to himself, and then laughed and said: "I am the first master's life-care person, I was ordered to assist the young master, and there has been no mistake all along, why should you dismiss me?" ”

"Why?" General Xi sneered: "It's up to you to collude with Zhao Guo and try to plot against the young master and replace him!" ”

"You say that I am backing the mastermind and plotting against me, what evidence is there, there are false rumors, but they can't be on the table!" Touman smiled coldly.

"According to reliable sources, you have trained a secret army in Wulihu, do you need me to bring the witnesses into the big tent?" General Yi angrily scolded: "Raising an army outside without permission, what do you want!" ”

"Tou admitted that he had trained an army in Wuli Lake, but he definitely did not admit to providing for it privately." Touman Ji Shou bowed to Zha Yansheng and said: "If an army wants to maintain its combat strength, there are only two methods: one is to fight, and the other is to train. Nowadays, our neighbors are harmonious and there is no danger of war, and only regular training can ensure that the army can have the strength to fight in times of crisis. Since I was ordered by my ancestor to take charge of the army, I did not dare to slack off, so I frequently reorganized the army and experienced the military. ”

"Then why don't you deploy training in the tribal camp, but instead seek the near and far?" General Yi was aggressive: "If you train the army privately outside, there must be a plan!" ”

"Doesn't General Xi know the reason for this?" Touman suddenly asked, "I thought General Ji knew very well!" ”

"I know? How will I know what you are in the army? General Ji scolded: "Don't change the subject! ”

"I didn't expect the general to be a person who dared to do it. Thou hast intervened in the military with grain and grass, and thou hast used the city of Enwei to squeeze out me, and where can my subordinates practice without leaving the battalion. Touman struck back and said: "It's your fake lord's Enwei City to the general, who is plotting!" ”

"Touman, don't be hard-mouthed, everyone's eyes are bright, how can you be allowed to lie around!" General Qi said angrily.

"Then you can explain to everyone why the soldiers and civilians under my command can only be fed, while the generals promoted by your general can keep their people warm!" Tou Man stared at General Yi with cold eyes and said: "Can I understand it like this: Er excludes me and wants to be in charge of civil and military affairs, and set up the young master!" ”

"I am doing this to prevent this traitor from doing bad things, and it is entirely for the sake of your safety, young master!" Hearing this, General Ji hurriedly bowed to Zha Yansheng, and pointed his finger in the direction of Touman, arguing in a panic: "If I hadn't struck first, I'm afraid this traitor would have turned me upside down."

"Who in this room can believe me? Who in the world believes? Tou Manhaha laughed and said: "The last general asks the young master to kill this person, just in case, and the minister is willing to admonish him with death!" ”

"Two uncles, you are the talents left to me by your father, don't hurt the harmony for some trivial things......" The young Zha Yansheng didn't understand why the two of them were so hostile, he tried to make peace, but his words were ruthlessly interrupted by General Xi.

"Young master, if this thief is not removed, my department will be uneasy." General Yi said emotionally: "He colluded with the thieves of Zhao State, wanted to cut off the roots of my tribe, and messed up my Hun customs, not killing is not enough to correct the people's hearts, and not killing is not enough to thank the people!" ”

"General Xi, it is the wise decision of the ancestor to connect with Zhao Guo, do you want to overturn the decision of the ancestor master?" Touman scolded loudly.

"It is because of a slanderous minister like you that the ancestor will be bewitched!" General Xi respectfully saluted Zha Yansheng, and then said word by word: "Please young master, cut off contacts with Zhao State, and re-befriend Xiongnu Shan Yu!" ”

"The ministers seconded it!" A large number of nobles in the tent followed General Xi's movements, and also saluted and advised Zha Yansheng: "Please stop handing over Zhao to the young master and return to the Xiongnu!" ”

"Hah! Ha! Ha! Touman laughed three times, and then suddenly realized: "I see! I see! ”

At this moment, there was a faint shouting of killing outside the tent, and Aman, who was covered in blood, rushed into the big tent and shouted: "General, Shan Yujun is rushing over here, come with me!" ”

"What's the situation now? Didn't it make you defensive? Touman grabbed Aman's arm and asked, "How can you let Shan Yu's army attack the camp!" ”

Aman's voice choked and said: "General, there is an internal response of Shan Yu in our department, they opened the gate to welcome Shan Yu's army, and our army was caught off guard and retreated on the whole line. ”

"And how did you get here? How many others have broken through like you? Touman asked nervously as he grabbed Aman's shoulder.

"After the Shan army entered the camp, it burned and looted everywhere, so that the scene was extremely chaotic, and I gathered 500 warriors along the way, and strangled hundreds of enemy troops who blocked the way, before I arrived here."

"Burn, kill, loot! You are talking nonsense! Hearing this, General Yi suddenly shouted: "If you have promised me, you will definitely not commit any crime wherever you pass!" ”

When Aman heard this, he suddenly understood, he shouted with red eyes, raised his knife and wanted to slash: "It turns out that you are Shan Yu's internal response, I want to kill you, avenge my brothers, and avenge my fellow villagers!" ”

said it was late, it was fast, and at the moment when General Yi was about to hit the ground, Touman shouted: "Aman, stop, let him live!" ”。

Hearing this, Aman turned the knife, and a wisp of green silk fell to the ground, and he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "Spare your life today, don't let me meet you in the future!" ”

"Aman, stop talking nonsense, protect me and the young master, go!" Tou Man took three steps and made two parts, and walked to Aman's side with Zha Yansheng, who was already panicked.

Aman should promise to make a promise, holding a sharp broadsword, protecting Touman's back, looking at the nobles in the tent with vigilance, and quickly exited the big tent, leaving a back for the overwhelmed nobles.
