Appearance often represents a true portrayal of a person. This sentence is very suitable for Niu Weifang. He is shrewd, one might even say cunning. He doesn't want Niu Weizhan to be so arrogant, and he is good at making plans with a shrewd mind. Taking this incident as an example, he came earlier than Niu Weizhan, and knelt in front of the bed in the middle of the night last night, his swollen and red eyes indicating that he had been crying for a long time. This is certainly not because of sentimentality, but to show in front of his dying father how much he loves him and how reluctant he is to leave this world.

Niu Weizhan believed that his father would give up the throne to him. I am a natural warrior, and I will lead the entire cattle clan from war to strength.

Niu Weifang also believes that he will be the winner of the battle for the throne. The Niu clan has never lacked warriors, and excellent commanders and generals have grabbed a lot of them. Only a brilliant mind and foresight are the foundation of a strong race. Legend has it that the great heroes are muscular maniacs, and the far-sighted strategists are far above them in terms of fame and merit.

The long wait is so anxious, decades have passed, and finally the hard work of the daughter-in-law has become a mother-in-law, the father is dead, and the inheritance belongs to me. Even if there is an elder brother (younger brother), whether it is Niu Weizhan or Niu Weifang, they all believe that their father will appoint them to inherit the throne.

The answer can only be one or the other. Although King Niu has many children under his knees, only the two of them have this strength.

quarreled fiercely in front of a group of important ministers, and even beat them wildly...... This is not an exposure of a dirty face, but an instinctive reaction in a state of extreme anger and disappointment.

There is no one plus one equals two, it can only be that two minus one equals one. But who would have thought that when a smart person, including a great master, felt that it was impossible for a third situation to appear, Dad couldn't make it to the end, he didn't say a word, and the key finger that gathered the focus of everyone's attention never stretched out and fell heavily.

He made the multiple-choice question a terrible subtraction, one minus one, and used the terrible answer of "zero" as the ending.

The gap in thinking is so huge that the strong expectation of the final result is stunning. Whether it is Niu Weizhan or Niu Weifang, they all feel that they have been very restrained, they have not scolded in public about the third person, they have not beaten their chests like thunder, and my only thought is to kill my brother (younger brother) and get the reward I deserve.

Everything has changed, and it will take another year......

Niu Weizhan turned around and glanced at Wu Peng deeply, his fat black face trembled slightly, lowered his head slightly, and expressed his attitude in a very low voice that suppressed anger.

"I'm going to prove that I'm qualified to sit in that position. One year ...... I'll try to do what I have to do. Great Teachers, all of you, you will all become witnesses. ”

With that, he turned away angrily.

"Rude and savage fellows, they don't know what etiquette is." Looking at his brother's long back, Niu Weifang shook his head contemptuously. He bent down in the face of Wu Peng and said respectfully: "Great Master, you are the most trusted person of your father, and you are solely responsible for his funeral. I hope to get more guidance and help from you in the coming year, ...... The same is true. ”

After saying these words, Niu Weifang turned around and approached the others, shook hands with the commanders and ministers one by one, and greeted them in a low voice.

When he left the dormitory, he had a smile on his face, not at all like his son, who had just learned of his father's death.

Wu Peng sighed, turned around and walked to the hospital bed with heavy steps, sat down slowly, raised his hand, and gently placed it on the body of his old friend who was losing his temperature through the sheet.

When a person lives, even if there is only one breath, the two princes will honestly kneel in front of the bed.

Once dead, empty, clean, and not for a second......

It can't be said that they are unkind, and the two highnesses must be busy for the next funeral. "The living do it for the dead", this sentence contains too many life philosophies.

Although I am a national teacher, many things do not change based on my personal likes and dislikes. I only hope that everything will go well, and the momentary power struggle will not affect the two highnesses to have a grudge against the future management of the clan. Although excellent kings can be magnanimous, they are human beings after all, and they have seven emotions and six desires, and they will do some things according to their own preferences......

A commander walked up to him, bent down, and persuaded in a low voice: "Great Master, Your Majesty has already gone." You need to take care of yourself and mourn. ”

A parliamentary secretary also came over: "Yes, we can't live without you. Even if a new king is elected next year, you are still irreplaceable. Your Majesty's funeral will be handled by us, you should have a good rest these days, and wait until the funeral is ......"

As he spoke, a tall figure appeared at the door of the dormitory. It was the captain of the guard beside Wu Peng, he walked very fast, his face was full of anxiety, and he hurried through the corridor in a few strides, almost trotting to Wu Peng.

"Great Master, something happened." He panted and handed over a secret letter with a trembling hand.

Thanks to Wu Peng's previous orders, the use of paper has been fully implemented in the Niu Clan's territory. Tianhao did not hide his secrets, he disclosed the paper-making technology, which could save a lot of animal skins, and the nobles were also happy to use this new thing that was thin and convenient.

Wu Peng is very clear about the character of his subordinates, the captain of the guard has always been steady, if it were not for the urgency of the situation, he would not choose to pass on at this time.

The envelope is stamped with the seal of the Rock Lord.

Wu Peng forcibly took off the lacquer seal calmly, took out the letter paper and unfolded it, the moment his eyes made contact with the content of the letter, the pupils of his eyes suddenly constricted, and the muscles on his face also became stiff in a tense state.

He felt cold in his hands and feet, and the huge shock made his brain completely freeze, and he couldn't even speak.

For a long time, he muttered muttered from the depths of his slightly open lips.

“…… Well Born ...... Dead ......"

The fluttering letter slipped from his hand and fell to the ground.

……

Tianhao launched a comprehensive purge of Red Hoof City.

With the young lord's temporary order, Broken Tooth urgently requisitioned 6,000 infantry from Rock City and rushed to Red Hoof City in the starry night.

Wu Yuan is indeed ruthless, and he has been trying to solve the problem from the root from the beginning. He grew up in the city and is familiar with everything here. Niu Tong never dreamed that his close friends would actually poison him, from the elders to the youngest relatives, everyone was killed by Wu Yuan, causing a power vacuum in Red Hoof City to appear in an instant.

Tianhao controlled the order in the city for the first time.

Six thousand for six thousand, the replaced garrison of Red Hoof City went to Rock City to be reorganized. From the commander to the head of ten, all officers must undergo a three-month full training, and decide whether or not to continue in the post on a case-by-case basis.

The population of Red Hoof City has been hovering around 40,000, reaching 46,000 at its peak, and barely exceeding 40,000 at its lowest. The lack of sufficient arable area led to a lack of food, and the tall physique of the northern barbarians doomed them to eat more than the whites. In addition to grains and rice, meat is the best source of protein, and in the depths of the sleep generated by genetic memory, many barbarians have dreamed of animal farming. In their sleep, they "saw" tens of thousands of hens farmed, "saw" fat and fat white pigs out of the circle to produce meat, and "saw" automated dairy farms, flocks of sheep occupying the entire grassland.

These dreams are so beautiful that you can't help but drool. But after waking up, it was still an empty pot and a cold stove, and I was hungry.

Their thinking is so simple———— people can't have enough to eat, what do they take to raise animals?

It cannot be said that such an idea is wrong, and the value of smart people is often manifested at such times. Rather than wasting time and wasting money on fattening a pig, it would be better to slaughter it and eat delicious roast and fried pork, stewed ribs, and roasted crispy crust.

Niutong has always been ambitious. He was an aristocrat who really wanted to do things, yet he was still helpless when it came to food.

The territory of the Niu tribe is rarely plain, and it is also mainly hilly. Every once in a while, the ox king would organize the whole clan to dig ditches and vigorously promote the implementation of water diversion projects, but this had little effect, and the increased grain production was quickly offset by various consumption, resulting in a slow population growth.

The largest additional item on food for the northern barbarians is a tribute to the mysterious mob.

Mountains are formed by the squeezing of the Earth's tectonic plates, and the connection between the city and the surrounding settlements can only be maintained by three roads. Niu Tong thought about climbing over the mountains to find a suitable area to build a new village, but the communication between the new village and the main city was very problematic. In particular, the first group of migrants would not have survived the long waiting period for the harvest in the first year if they did not have access to food supplies from the main city.

Wu Yuan changed many of Niu Tong's ideas, even thinking obstacles.

The young priest's thirst for wealth was so strong that it was not in his interest to have a scattered city (lord) with difficulty building roads. Niu Tong gradually dispelled the idea of dividing the people and building a village, and also accepted Wuyuan's monetary system from the lion clan. But he never thought that Wu Yuan would cut off the heads of his wife and children in front of him, and cut his throat with a knife with his own hands.

Tianhao's comprehensive purge in Red Hoof City was vigorous, and he uprooted the entire group of wizards. Unlike other places, Wu Yuan has been operating in Red Hoof City for many years, and all the witch practitioners here may be his comrades. Wizards, priests, and even the lowest level of ordinary wizards, as well as a large number of guards, were infiltrated by the source of witchcraft and bowed down to him.

Six thousand men covered most of the city's defenses, and these people would be closely monitored in Rock City. Their daily life is monotonous and boring, half of the time is spent on high-intensity training, half of the time is in charge of the political commissar, the unit of ten people is forced to study, with the special textbook written by Tianhao as the teaching material, and they receive brainwashing education in an all-round way.

Three months is just an estimated time, when the time comes, the political commissar will score and evaluate each person, and if they meet the standards, they will be sent back to the Red Hoof City, if they do not meet the standards, they will continue to be trained, and they will be evaluated again after two months.

Red Hoof City is also setting off a bloody storm.

Broken Tooth and several soldiers burst into a room south of the city, pulling out a middle-aged man from a hidden position between the bed and the cupboard. He shivered, his face pale, and tried to resist but was kicked in the arm by a broken tooth, and the dagger in his hand flew out.

"You can't arrest me." He obviously knew why the strangers had forced their way in, and when the soldiers twisted their hands behind their backs and tied them with ropes, he struggled desperately, pulling his neck and roaring: "I am a priest, I serve the gods, you ...... You are disrespectful to the gods! ”

Broken Tooth gave him a heavy slap with his backhand, and the middle-aged man was squeezed so that his face was crooked, his teeth smashed through the soft inner wall of his mouth, his tongue was cut, and blood spilled down the corners of his mouth. He was beaten to the point that his eyes were full of stars, and his ears made a huge roar, and he couldn't recover for a long time.

The wolf-like soldier took him out into the street, grabbed him by the hair with one hand, and kicked the man in the crook of the leg with his foot, forcing him to kneel. The residents of the neighborhood were attracted by the loud noise, and soon gathered into a circle of hundreds of people, pointing at him and whispering.

"It's the priest, what's wrong with him?"

"I heard that something was committed, and the crime was to murder the city lord."

"I've also heard that he's in the same league as Lord Wu Yuan."

The man saw the soldiers take their wives and children out of the house. He suddenly became agitated, and although he was firmly grabbed by his hair by broken teeth, he still writhed desperately like a loach.

"What do you want to do? Let them go, let them go immediately. The man's voice was hoarse and he screamed: "I curse you not to die well, I will pray to the gods and let them bring you calamity!" ”

Such a threat worked so well that the onlookers nearby were so frightened that they stopped talking. Especially the old people, whose faces turned pale, covered their children's mouths with their hands for fear of making a little noise.

Broken Tooth was enraged. He loosened the man's hair, grabbed the man's left ear, pulled out the dagger, and cut it down until it was broken.

The man let out a terrible scream.

"If you have the ability, pray! Don't say that Lao Tzu didn't give you a chance. Broken teeth were full of hideousness, and the huge fangs made him look like a demon: "A man must count when he speaks." Dog mongrel, if the gods do not answer your prayers, it proves that you are an impostor, what kind of priest is pretending? Wait, soon it's your turn, I'm going to cut your balls with my own hands! ”

He then turned around and shouted at the soldiers: "What are you doing in a daze? According to the orders of the adults, kill me one by one. ”

The middle-aged man asked desperately in pain: "...... You guys...... What are you going to do? ”

The soldier replied with ferocity and rage. They wielded tomahawks and cut off the heads of women and children in public, splattering blood.

This is not deliberately cruel. Children will grow up, and the hatred of the death of their parents will be remembered for a lifetime. Rather than leaving adulthood for disaster, it is better to kill it now and never suffer in the future.
