On the morning of the seventh day of November, the city of Lok Ma was born. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Naiman kept his promise and returned to Lok Ma City with Naiman Qingchuan, the chief of the Yaolai Division.
Naiman Dupan knew that no matter where Naiman Qingchuan fled, he would first have to meet the Hanamichi Tent defenders, which was the only remaining soldiers and horses of the Yaolai Department, and it was also the last capital of the Yaolai Ministry, and Naiman Qingchuan would not be discarded no matter what, so Naiman Dupan Pegasus went south, found Naiman Qingchuan as he wished, and told the details of the situation, Naiman Qingchuan couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh bitterly, so he could only comply.
The survival of the Yaolai tribe, the life and death of tens of thousands of clansmen, are all within the palm of the white wolf's hands, what else can he do but bow down and obey orders? There will be no pie in the sky, the conditions proposed by the white wolf seem to be good, but in fact they are very risky, and the defeat of the Yaolai Department is still over, but because there is a glimmer of life, the Yaolai Department has no choice, rather than being wiped out by the white wolf now, it is better to surrender the white wolf, charge for the white wolf, fight to the death, maybe you can realize your dream and dominate the Khitan.
Holding on to this glimmer of hope, Naiman Qingchuan returned to Luoma City and surrendered to the white wolf, but the first thing he saw was not the white wolf, but the two Xi generals who insulted Wang Lei and Mohetunhe.
The two sides are enemies, and they should have drawn their swords against each other, but at this time and then, whether active or passive, now everyone is on the side of Middle-earth, all of them are working under the white wolf's tent, there are common interests, we must cooperate, and cooperation is beneficial to both sides, if we can't let go of hatred, put aside previous suspicions, and continue to look angrily and reciprocate, it will not be beneficial to both sides.
Naiman Qingchuan honestly lowered his posture, he was eager to know what was going on in Anzhou, what is the current situation between Ah Huizheng and the five tribes of the Xi tribe, what is the relationship between the white wolf and Middle Earth, whether the Turkic army in the southeast Yaqi has been defeated, and what is the purpose of the white wolf's sudden attack on the remote tribe.
The insulting Wang Lei and Mohetunhe were ordered to come to solve the doubts and confusion of Naiman Qingchuan, so that Naiman Qingchuan could understand the ins and outs of the matter, thoroughly recognize the current reality, and persuade the Yaolai Department to join the big alliance, and the two sides would work together.
After asking everything they wanted to know in detail, Naiman Qingchuan and Naiman Dupan finally lifted the fog that shrouded their hearts and saw the situation in Anzhou and even the Northeast clearly. To put it bluntly, Middle-earth wants to take the Northeast, the struggle between the North and the South is intensifying, and the Civil War is getting closer and closer. At this time, the Donghu species are sandwiched between the two strong ones, and they must choose a side, follow my prosperity, and those who oppose me die, and there is no third way.
And for the Donghu species, Goguryeo is a bloody example, and the end of working against Middle-earth is the destruction of the country and the extinction of the species, even if you are dying and struggling to bite a piece of meat in Middle-earth, it will not help, the national strength of Middle-earth is too strong, if you can't kill with one punch, you will be punched twice and three times, and the fist will be to the flesh, until you are beaten down. At this critical moment, the survival of the ethnic group is at stake, and of course the choice in favor of the ethnic group must be made.
Today, the unification of the Middle Earth is thriving, on the other hand, the Northern Turkic Khanate is struggling desperately in the whirlpool of division and civil strife, the comparison of the strength of the two sides is clear at a glance, the south is strong and the north is weak, once the Civil War breaks out, the Middle Earth has a considerable chance of winning, so the choice of the Donghu can be imagined, of course, follow the strong, easy to pick the fruits of victory.
The Khitans were especially afraid of Middle-earth. Nine years ago, at the beginning of the Holy Lord's accession to the throne, the Han King Yang Liang rebelled, the northern Xinjiang was in turmoil, the Khitan and Goguryeo took the opportunity to invade Liaoxi, Wei Yunqi was ordered to patrol the border, borrowed 20,000 troops from the Turks, and took the Khitan by surprise with a false way to defeat the enemy, directly destroyed one Khitan tribe, and severely damaged another tribe, which is also an important reason for the rapid rise of Dahe Duluo and the evolution of the Khitan ten tribes into the Khitan eight tribes. The past is still fresh in my memory and vivid, how dare Naiman Qingchuan confront Middle-earth?
Naiman Qingchuan made a choice, and his psychology also changed dramatically, if he was angry, depressed, and desperate before, now he is surrendering to the strong and looking forward to the future.
Then Naiman Qingchuan saw the white wolf who had been "famous for a long time" but had never met, and saw the strange white hair with his own eyes, and then became more and more curious about the white wolf's "past and present life" and the secret hidden behind the white wolf. What is the relationship between a pine desert horse thief, a rebel in Middle-earth, and a tyrant who leads tens of thousands of troops out of the fortress, undertakes an important mission, and rises to prominence? What are the important secrets? What is the future?
Naiman Qingchuan had no way to speculate, but the white wolf gave him a very bad feeling, not because he was afraid, but because he was uneasy, which made him tremble. Although the future is uncertain, there are optimistic and pessimistic uncertainties, and the fog he sees from the white wolf just increases the certainty of the future, the more serious this uncertainty is, the more unpredictable the future direction is, and the future is naturally very pessimistic.
Naiman Qingchuan resolutely decided to alleviate the hatred and estrangement between the two sides with the greatest candor, to reduce the white wolf's vigilance against him, and then from the white wolf's words, to the greatest extent to "excavate" the secret hidden behind the true appearance.
"Wolf Shuai, the Khitan is different from the Xi tribe, and the Yaolai Department is also different from the Humiliation King Department." Naiman Qingchuan got straight to the point and went straight to the point, "Under the thunderous power of the wolf marshal, the Xi clan can quickly rebuild a new alliance headed by the Humiliation King Ministry, but in Khitan, if the wolf marshal wants to establish a new alliance led by the Yaolai Ministry, it is difficult. ā
Calling the white wolf wolf handsome is because the insulted Wang Lei and Mohetunhe both call the white wolf like this, and Naiman Qingchuan also "follows the customs", and does not realize that this title will affect Li Fengyun's mood, and the Xi tribes suddenly unified their names, but they were influenced by the Ah Hui Ministry, and the Ah Hui Department was inspired by the Song Desert horse thief who affectionately called the wolf handsome, so he deliberately imitated it, and the result was unexpectedly good.
Li Fengyun was slightly surprised, his eyes showed appreciation, and he suddenly looked at Naiman Qingchuan differently.
It's not the same when talking to smart people, Naiman Qingchuan is very perceptive, and he can see the crux of the current situation at a glance. The reason why Li Fengyun put aside his hatred and did not kill the Yaolai tribe was that his purpose was very clear, to support the Yaolai tribe to establish a new alliance of the Khitan and divide the Khitan, so that he could win the maximum result at the minimum cost and easily achieve the goal of conquering the Khitan.
But it is easy to control razing with razing, but it is difficult to operate in practice, especially in the Khitan. There are many differences between the Khitan and the Xi people, such as the vast territory, the loose alliance, the distance between the tribes, and the few common interests, so the same strategy can be successful in the Xi people, but it may not work in the Khitan.
"What's going to happen?" Li Fengyun stretched out his hand to invite.
Everyone knows the difficulties, the key is how to solve them, there are no effective countermeasures, everything is empty talk, but Naiman Qingchuan was not confused by appearances, his mind was clear, and he went straight to the crux of the matter, which shows that he was prepared and planned.
What Li Fengyun's strategy is, Naiman Qingchuan doesn't know, but one thing is very clear, if Li Fengyun's strategy fails, the Yaolai Department will be a victim, Li Fengyun will not hesitate to sacrifice the Yaolai Department, and the Yaolai Department betrays the Khitan Eight Alliance, and it will inevitably be wiped out and swallowed by the victors.
So Naiman Qingchuan has no choice, in order to survive in the distant department, he must do his best to grasp the initiative, he must help Li Fengyun win the victory, even if there is only a glimmer of hope, he has to invest all his strength at any cost. This is not only honesty, but also loyalty, but also self-help.
Naiman Qingchuan immediately offered a plan.
It was only four or five years since the rise of the Dahe clan, and the Khitan Eight-Division Alliance had not been formed long ago, and the cohesion was very poor, and the reason why the alliance was successfully formed was directly related to the containment and attack of the Turks. In order to control the Khitan, the Turks of course hoped that the Khitan tribes would be scattered, fighting for each other, and conquest each other, and if a strong man rose and formed a tribal alliance, it would inevitably weaken the Turks' control over the Khitan. But the result backfired, because the suppression was too strong, and nine years ago, even in the name of the Middle-earthers, the Khitan was severely damaged, forcing the Khitan tribes to join together to save themselves.
The Khitan Eight-Division Alliance faced the "squeeze" of the three powerful Middle-earth, Turkic and Goguryeo, and the internal differentiation was very serious, among which the four tribes close to the Far East were very close to Goguryeo and the Yao, while the Yaoran Department adjacent to the western flat pine forest was close to the Turks, so the core strength of the Eight-Division Alliance was only located in the east of the Tosuchen River and the south of the weak Luoshui, and the Exit Division, the Yaolai Division, and the Diera Division, which were adjacent to each other. This is the core area of the Khitan, and it is also the most intense and frequent place for internal annexation and conquest of the Khitan, until the rise of the Great He Duluo, the three-legged tripartite of the Fufu Department, the Yaolai Department and the Diera Department, only to have the conditions for the formation of the Khitan Alliance.
However, not long after the alliance was formed, the Khitan had just entered the development period, and the Xi people invaded on a large scale, dealing a heavy blow to the Khitan alliance. The driving force behind the war between the two tribes is the Turks, the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman profits, the two tribes kill each other, the strength is weakened, and the Turks are of course happy to see it. It's a pity that the praying mantis catches cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind, giving the Middle-earth people a knife and picking up a big bargain.
This battle directly broke the balance within the Khitan Alliance, and destroyed the Dingli situation of the Khitan core area. Because of its location at the forefront of the battlefield, the Yaolai Division suffered heavy losses and suffered a great loss of vitality, and even if there was no attack from the Middle-earthers, it was very likely that it would be annexed and divided by its own neighbors.
Therefore, Naiman Qingchuan was unceremonious, and pointed the spearhead directly at the neighbors on the left and right, "The top priority is to split out of the Fubu." The Khitan Eight-Division Alliance, with the Dahe clan as the respect, is the strongest in the Izuku Division, and the Dahe Clan is from the Izubu Division. There are four surnames in the Fubu department, Dahe, Bali, Ao Han and Kulun, of which Bali, Ao Han, and Kulun are all annexed by Dahe, and Ao Han and Kulun are still attached for a short time, but only four or five years, they have a deep grudge against each other, and the contradictions are fierce, as long as the wind blows, they will definitely betray and leave. ā
"Secondly, we must annihilate the Yaoyuan Department and cut off the sharp claws of the Turks reaching out to the Khitan." Naiman Qingchuan had already heard about Anzhou's northern expedition plan from the humiliated Wang Lei and Mohetun River, and knew that the goal of the Middle-earth people was to sweep both sides of the weak Luoshui, so of course they should take this opportunity to use the power of the Middle-earth people to kill their opponents and eliminate future troubles forever.
This is somewhat different from Li Fengyun's plan of attack, but the general direction is the same, the main targets of attack are the ambush and the remote retreat, which are three or four hundred miles away from Songshan, which is convenient for the dispatch of troops and the transportation of grain and grass; if we can use these two attack targets to lure more enemies into the trap and complete the work in one battle, and severely damage the enemy's living forces, then we will get twice the result with half the effort and achieve the goal of sweeping both sides of the weak Luoshui River in the shortest time at the lowest cost. Originally, Li Fengyun still had to constantly make adjustments in the details of his attack according to the development of the battle situation, and the front-line generals needed to be flexible and mobile and deal with them on the spot, and there were considerable variables, but now with the cooperation of the remote department, the two sides can learn from each other's strong points and make up for their weaknesses, and the chances of victory will be greatly increased.
"Good!" Li Fengyun said without thinking, "I would like to hear it in detail." ā
