As the most powerful lord of the border city, a large area to the east of the city was his personal domain. （.）

Most of the people who live in the border cities give up their tents to build houses, but in terms of architectural style, they are very different from the people of Da Chu, with a strong exotic style.

There are two rows of tables in the main hall, saying that it is the main hall, but in fact, in Xiao Chen's opinion, it is simply a snail dwelling, with an area of no more than thirty square meters, which is inferior to the living room of ordinary people in Da Chu.

Su Kemu sat on the main throne, and there were eight tables below it, and the people who were qualified to sit here were his son Kerim, his benefactor Xiao Chen, plus three other lords, and three of the largest merchants in the border city.

As for the others, they sat in tents that had been improvised in the courtyard.

The conditions are not very good, but the wine and meat pipes are enough, and there are four sheep and a cow in the other corner of the yard, the charcoal fire is blazing, and the aroma of barbecue is everywhere.

The wine was transported by merchants from the hinterland of Da Chu, and although it was not considered the best, it was also a rare wine, and it was many times stronger than the mare's milk wine made by the barbarians.

Seeing that the guests had arrived, Su Kemu stood up and said: "There is a very important matter to invite everyone here today, my daughter is also the wife of the patriarch of the Baishan clan, because her husband suddenly died of illness, his younger brother Gu Lilen took advantage of the chaos to seize power and brutally killed my daughter, and my granddaughter Medina came to the border city after a lot of hardships, as the father-in-law of the patriarch of the Baishan tribe, it is necessary for me to announce what Gu Lilen did to the public. ”

At this time, Medina, who had changed into a new dress, walked out from the side, looking like a pear blossom with rain.

Everyone had heard of Su Kemu's beautiful granddaughter, but few had ever seen her in person, and this was the first time she had appeared in public.

The sound of gasping and praising words came one after another, Martina saluted everyone, and then sat down next to her grandfather, not forgetting to smile at Xiao Chen, who was on the right side and bowed down.

Su Kemu then introduced: "This Chen Xiao Gongzi is from Da Chu, and he saved Medina, and I am grateful. Moreover, Chen Gongzi also brought dozens of war horses and sent them to Medina for the restoration of the country. ”

"The lord is gracious. The little marquis clenched his fists.

It had been more than a quarter of an hour since he had been seated, and the Crimea on the other side had barely looked at him.

Su Kemu still had a grateful expression on his face, he looked at his granddaughter with great pity, and said softly: "Nana, tell your seniors what happened to your Baishan clan." ”

"Hmm. Medina sat up straight and told her uncle Gullen the process of seizing power.

On the prairie, betrayal was an act that everyone spurned, and with Medina's pitiful appearance and eloquent narration, everyone soon became indignant.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Su Kemu said on behalf of his granddaughter: "You are all well-known figures in the border city, can you tolerate this behavior of Gu Lilen? I want to lead the cavalry to fight and seek justice for my daughter and granddaughter, and I ask you for help." ”

In the border city, he is the largest lord, with a cavalry team of more than a thousand people, which is a force to be reckoned with. However, the Baishan Clan has a total population of more than 40,000 people, and the strength of the army has reached about 6,000, and with 1,000 against 6,000, the odds of winning are too small, so he has to seek help from others.

The lord sitting on the left side immediately said: "I am willing to send six hundred troops to wave the flag and shout for the lord of Sukemu!"

"I am also willing to send five hundred troops to accompany Lord Sukemu to avenge his daughter!" the second lord said.

The last lord also expressed his willingness to send three hundred troops, and the three merchants looked at each other, and they were willing to organize and lead their own escorts to form a team of five hundred.

"Okay, thanks to you for looking up to my old face of Su Kemu, after the traitor Gu Lileng is killed, I will definitely not treat you badly. Su Kemu slapped the table happily.

With 1,000 people from their own family, 1,400 troops from the three lords, plus 500 people from the merchant group, those residents in the city who have received the favor of Su Kemu will definitely not stand idly by, so that there are more than 3,000 people in total, as long as the strategy is properly arranged, the odds of victory are very high.

It is true that there are 6,000 people in Gu Lilen, but his position as the new patriarch is not right, and the 6,000 people may not all listen to him, and his strength is greatly reduced.

If you bring Medina with you, those people of the White Mountain Clan who have been favored by the old patriarch will definitely turn to this side.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the 3,000 people on Su Kemu's side can only use their own 1,000 cavalry, and most of the people who help them do not participate in direct battles, what they have to do is to wave their flags and shout to increase the momentum of Su Kemu.

"Father, I think this matter should be considered in the long run, rather than rashly sending troops to the Baishan Clan. Krim stood up and said in a loud voice.

"Krimu, what do you mean, don't you want to avenge your sister and Nana?" a look of displeasure appeared on Su Kemu's face.

Krimu shook his head and said, "Of course we have to avenge the killing of my sister, I mean we shouldn't rush to send troops, after all, we don't know what the situation of the Baishan clan is now." Although Nana escaped from that side, she usually never asked about the affairs of the clan, and she was in a hurry when she fled, so she couldn't tell the form of that side. ”

Su Kemu frowned: "Kerim, what do you mean, explain it clearly." ”

Kerim stood up, took two steps forward and said, "I mean, we should first stabilize our position and send someone to secretly infiltrate the Baishan Clan to find out the news, at least we must first find out how many people support Gu Lilen and who is against him." Then, send people to contact the opponents of Gullen, and when the time is ripe, we will send troops again, and we should join forces to defeat Gullen. ”

The lord sitting at the lower head on the left stroked his beard and said: "What the young lord said makes sense, although the rash dispatch of troops can catch the other party by surprise, but it will make those who originally opposed Gu Lilen feel at a loss, once the two sides meet on the battlefield, we can't judge whether he is friend or foe, and both sides will be very passive." In the unlikely event that Gullen has someone come to deceive us, we will be easily deceived. ”

Su Kemu frowned, and he had to say that his son's point of view was reasonable.

Xiao Chen didn't speak, although he was Martina's savior, but after all, he was just a guest, but he had been secretly observing the Krimu.

On the surface, Kerim analyzed the Tao, but a hint of sinister flashed in his eyes from time to time, and Xiao Chen could be sure that what he said was not right at all.

Kerim knew very well what the 3,000-strong army organized by his father represented, but in fact, it was his own 1,000 cavalry that really went to fight against the Baishan tribe, and it was unknown whether he could defeat Gulilen.

Since Gu Lilen dared to seize power, it showed that he still had a certain foundation in the tribe, and as long as there were 2,000 people to support him, Su Kemu would have a great chance of losing the battle.

Even if he is lucky enough to defeat him, his own little strength will definitely be almost consumed, can he still have the right to speak when he returns to the border city?

Su Kemu is old, and he can't sit in the lord's seat for a few days, so he can go to avenge his daughter without any scruples. But as the heir, Krimu has to think about things that are closely related to him after his father's death.
