Mogan River Valley, one hundred and twenty miles north.

Tens of thousands of Hun cavalry, wielding horse whips, galloped across the endless steppe.

The sound of rumbling horses' hooves shook the earth.

Countless weak creatures perched on the grass ran for their lives to the sound of rumbling horses' hooves.

Correct.

There are more than 10,000 people, and there is no boundary.

Under the iron hooves of tens of thousands of Hun cavalry, countless weak creatures could only turn into a pile of blood and mud in the end.

Eventually, he was buried deep in the earth and never to be seen again.

Tens of thousands of Hun cavalry stopped and stopped, and finally turned over and dismounted just as the sun was about to set.

And set up countless snow-white tents on the endless prairie.

As the smoke rose, a noisy sound suddenly sounded on the prairie that had been quiet for an unknown number of days.

Correct.

In the midst of the noise, there is a pure land.

Although the Pure Land was in the midst of noise, there was not a trace of noise.

A large snow-white tent is located in the center of the "Pure Land".

Hundreds of armored Huns roamed around the snow-white tents with sharp blades in hand.

A lifelike blue wolf howling moon flag fluttered slowly in the wind on the wooden pole next to the snow-white tent.

Inside the snow-white tent.

A middle-aged man in a blue brocade robe sat upright at the top of the position, holding a dagger the size of a palm and slowly cutting the mutton in front of him.

As he cut, he placed it in front of him on a beautiful disk.

A moment later.

"General Lu, please."

The middle-aged man in brocade slowly handed the exquisite porcelain plate full of mutton in front of him to the middle-aged man in bright armor beside him.

Unlike the middle-aged man in brocade, the middle-aged man in bright light armor has an authentic Central Plains face.

"Thank you for the love of King Li."

After the middle-aged man in bright armor clasped his fists and saluted, he took the exquisite porcelain plate full of mutton with both hands.

Then he picked up a pair of ivory chopsticks, picked up a piece of fully cooked mutton, dipped it in salt crystals, and then couldn't wait to put the mutton in his mouth.

After chewing it carefully.

The middle-aged man who was called General Lu by King Zuo Guli praised: "The sheep in autumn are really fat."

King Zuo Gu Li looked at the Great Zhou general named Lu Zhongyi in front of him, and laughed and teased, "Is it just the fat sheep in autumn?"

"Of course not." Lu Zhongyi shook his head when he heard this, and then said with a smile: "If it weren't for the perfect craftsmanship of King Zuo Guli, no matter how fat the sheep were, it would inevitably be tasteless."

"You, you, you're still so eloquent." King Zuo Gu shook his head with a chuckle, and then sliced a piece of mutton that was still covered with a trace of blood with a dagger.

After simply dipping it in salt crystals, put it in your mouth and chew it slowly.

Wait for the lamb to be eaten.

King Zuo Gu Li picked up the wine bowl, stretched out his hand and gestured to Lu Zhongyi, "General Lu, please."

Lu Zhongyi picked up the wine bowl and said with a respectful face: "The last general respects the king of Zuogu Li."

The words fell.

A Hun Zuogu Liwang, a large week of generals, after touching each other's wine bowls, they drank the wine.

"In General Lu's opinion, did Li Guangli fall for a trick at this time?"

King Zuo Gu Li put down the wine bowl in his hand, and then his face turned straight and asked in a deep voice.

Since learning that Da Zhou is about to send troops to Mobei.

The king of Zuogu Li took the initiative to ask the Xiongnu for battle.

After getting the permission of the Xiongnu royal court.

Even if the king of the left valley was to get rid of the king of the right valley, he led his troops to the area in the clouds.

I want to let the Great Zhou Dynasty taste the fear brought by the wolf guard here after more than ten years.

It's good that this snow is a shame that the wolf guard didn't have one out of ten.

Plus the implementation of some ulterior plans.

Correct.

Just as it was about to send troops.

The Great Zhou general of that year, Lu Zhongyi, the military advisor of the New Wolf Guard, found the big tent of the Chinese army.

Talk to him all night long.

After that long all-night talk.

King Zuogu forcibly suppressed the heart that was crazy and restless because of its eagerness for revenge.

King Zuo Guli, who calmed down a little, finally chose Lu Zhongyi's strategy.

First, although Lu Zhongyi is a general, he has a life-saving grace for him.

At the beginning of the decisive battle in Mobei, if it weren't for the surrender of General Lu Zhongyi to help.

There was no way he could get out of Zhao Qing's crazy siege.

As long as you can escape, don't say that there is no one in the ten wolf guards under your command, even if all of them are killed in battle, so what's the matter?

As long as it is alive, it can rebuild the Wolf Guard at any time.

It is precisely because of this that Lu Zhongyi's position in his heart is naturally self-evident.

Second, at that time, the Xiongnu were at odds with King Zuo Xian due to the disagreement between Da Danyu and King Zuoxian, and there was a vague tendency to split.

Since last winter's once-in-a-century natural disaster, there have been two completely different voices within the Xiongnu.

A group of princes and tribal leaders led by Xiongnu Shan Yu advocated taking advantage of the catastrophe in the Great Zhou Pass to go south to the Central Plains.

A group of princes and tribal leaders led by King Zuo Xian advocated attacking the west, and after entering the Western Regions, they slowly plotted against the Central Plains.

And King Zuogu Li naturally supported the southbound faction.

It is precisely because of this that the other side will take the initiative to ask for war.

In his opinion, if this battle is won completely, the western attack faction led by King Zuo Xian is bound to collapse.

At that time, maybe he can take over as King Zuoxian by virtue of his military exploits.

King Zuo Xian was equivalent to the crown prince of the Central Plains within the Xiongnu.

After Lao Shan Yu died, he could take over as Da Shan as King Zuo Xian.

It is precisely because of this that the king of Zuogu Li can only win this battle, not be defeated.

Third, it must preserve a certain amount of strength in case it is very likely to happen in the future.

Its so-called accident does not only refer to the possible death-defying counterattack of King Zuo Xian.

It also refers to the remnants of Donghu who were destroyed that year.

That is, the Xianbei tribe who moved to the area of Xianbei Mountain.

and the Wuhuan tribe who moved to the Wuhuan Mountain area.

The two most inconspicuous small tribes in the Eastern Hu Khanate at that time.

In the more than 200 years when the Xiongnu and the Great Zhou fought against each other and had no time to take care of anything else.

has quietly developed into two behemoths.

Although since the decisive battle of Mobei, the Xiongnu took the initiative to show goodwill and form an alliance with Xianbei and Wuhuan.

But in the opinion of King Zuogu Li, the reason why Xianbei and Wuhuan formed an alliance with the Xiongnu.

It's just because Xianbei and Wuhuan don't have absolute confidence to annex the Xiongnu.

In the words of the Central Plains people, that is, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse!

But as the king of Zuogu Li, the king of Zuoxian soon after, and the future Xiongnu Dadanyu, he had to guard against Xianbei and Wuhuan.

For a variety of reasons.

Therefore, King Zuo Gu Li finally chose to follow Lu Zhongyi's advice.

Won the battle with Lee Kwang-ri with minimal damage.

......

......

Inside the snow-white tent.

After Lu Zhongyi pondered for a moment, he slowly opened his mouth and smiled: "King Zuo Gu Li, don't worry, then Li Guangli must have been decided."

"Oh?" When King Zuo Gu Li heard this, his face turned straight, and he immediately asked, "How can you see it?"

Lu Zhongyi smiled, and then slowly spoke: "In the Central Plains, there is an ancient saying that it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift."

"Since Li Guangli left the customs, the tribes he met along the way were all old and weak, women and children."

"And there are hundreds of cattle and sheep in the tribes along the way, and thousands of cattle and sheep at most."

"It's been going back and forth like this for a month, even if Li Guangli is on guard, what's the matter?"

"His men must have gotten used to this kind of effortless effort

The process of making military achievements."

"And, in the process, his subordinates will inevitably have a lot of slackness."

The words fell.

Lu Zhongyi picked up a piece of fat mutton and put the fat mutton in his mouth.

While savoring it slowly, he slowly spoke: "In addition, although the battle three days ago will make Li Guangli on guard, it will not hinder the overall situation."

"The army that won three days ago is almost two thousand men."

"Those two thousand men are our tongues."

"After the more than 2,000 people will blow about their victorious deeds."

"It won't be long before the morale of the soldiers under Li Guangli's command will be greatly boosted."

"And then the heart of the enemy will be born."

The words fell.

Lu Zhongyi picked up the wine bowl in the small table and drank the wine that had just been filled again.

As the wine bowl was slowly lowered, a smug look gradually appeared on Lu Zhongyi's face.

For a mercenary person like Lu Zhongyi.

Only in his own favor, Mo said that he helped the Huns to give advice, even if he personally led the troops to attack his mother country, or even killed his own family with his own hands, he would never frown.

Hearing this, King Zuo Gu frowned tightly and groaned for a moment.

Although it was not the first time he had heard Lu Zhongyi mention his plan.

But for some reason, every time he heard Lu Zhongyi mention it, King Zuo Gu Li would have a shudder in his heart.

But, isn't what he needs most at this time is a poisoner like Lu Zhongyi?

A moment later.

King Zuo Gu Li laughed heartily and said, "High! High! High! General Lu is really tall!"

As he spoke, King Zuo Gu Li lifted the wine jar and laughed heartily again: "This king respects General Lu with a glass!"

The words fell.

King Zuogu Li suddenly got up, held the wine jar in his hand, raised his head and drank the full jar of wine.

"Rejoice!"

"Smack!"

King Zuogu Li screamed and casually threw the empty wine jar aside.

"King Zuogu Liwang has a good amount of wine!"

"Righteousness!"

Seeing this, Lu Zhongyi immediately slapped open a jar of wine, got up and raised his head to drink!

Dozens of breaths later.

Lu Zhongyi's altar mouth was facing downward, indicating that the wine of King Liwang of Zuogu had dried up.

"Hahaha, General Lu is also good at drinking." King Zuo Gu laughed heartily.

As soon as the words fell, King Zuo Guli's slightly red face suddenly turned straight.

Then he stared at Lu Zhongyi's eyes with great sincerity.

Word by word, he said, "General Lu, if you win this battle and go to the royal court, please Da Dan Yu will be crowned king for you!"

I can smell the word king.

A look of ecstasy flashed from Lu Zhongyi's eyes.

"The last general, Xie Zuo Gu Liwang, raises love!"

"In the end, in this life, only the king of Zuogu Li's king will obey!"

"King Zuogu Li, let the last general go east! The last will never go west!"

Lu Zhongyi settled down, hurriedly and solemnly clasped his fists and saluted, and then showed his loyalty.

"Hahaha." King Zuogu Li laughed heartily and said, "This king has to get General Lu alone, and he is like ten thousand wolf guards!"

For a while, there would be bursts of hearty laughter from time to time in the snow-white tent.

It's really a good look.

When night falls.

Lu Zhongyi, who was full of alcohol, took the king to imagine that he was drunk, and was helped out of the snow-white tent by two wolf guards.

Inside the snow-white tent.

After Lu Zhongyi's figure disappeared completely.

King Zuo Guli, who was originally drunk and lying on the small wooden case and snoring, suddenly straightened up slowly.

At this time, in addition to his slightly infrared complexion, King Zuogu Liwang still looked half drunk.

King Zuo Gu got up slowly, and then walked to the hanging map with an expressionless face.

After standing in front of the map for a long time, he suddenly drew his saber from his waist.

The cold blade circled several times above the Mogan River valley and then slammed into the place where the Zuo Xian King was located in the map.

The blade circled around the place where the Zuo Xian King was and began to move slowly.

Finally stop at the Xiongnu royal court.

King Zuogu Li held a treasure knife with an expressionless face, and the knife pointed at the court of the Xiongnu king.

No one knows what he thinks at the moment, let alone what he is trying to do at this moment.

I don't know how long it took.

The cold sword in King Zuo Guli's hand slowly moved again.

The Cool Blade finally hovered between Xianbei Mountain and Wuhuan Mountain.

"Those fools will give you the time and opportunity to thrive and even grow, but I don't."

"There is an old saying among the Central Plains people."

"Xiangwai must first settle inside, and after this king cuts off Li Guangli's head and completely takes over the Huns."

"It's your turn!"

King Zuo Gu said slowly with a slightly hideous face.

The words fell.

King Zuo Guli's gaze slowly moved to the Great Zhou territory in the map.

"Zhengde child, this king put you last, you won't be unhappy, right?"

King Zuo Gu Li stared at the territory of the Great Zhou and said slowly.

The voice fell.

The treasure knife in the hand of King Zuogu Liwang slowly moved from between Xianbei Mountain and Wuhuan Mountain to the location of Chang'an City, the capital division of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

His originally slightly hideous complexion became completely hideous from this moment.

It can be seen how deep his hatred for Da Zhou is.

I don't know how long it took.

King Liking of Zuogu once again moved the sword in his hand to the sky above the Mogan River Valley.

"This king's majestic journey begins here."

"Li Guangli? Oh, your father is not a match for this king, let alone you?"

King Zuo Gu said slowly with disdain on his face.

In fact, the Mogan Valley was not just a place for Li Guangli to set up camp.

It is also the place where King Zuogu Li and Lu Zhongyi jointly selected the burial place for them.

......

......

As the night deepens.

The stars over the Mobei grassland are also becoming more and more bright.

Mogan River Valley, more than 80 miles to the south of the Great Zhou camp.

At this time, the celebration banquet has just ended.

The camp was filled with the smoke of charcoal fire and the smell of beef and mutton.

Inside the big tent of the Chinese army.

Li Guangli sat upright in the top position with a slightly red face.

Below it, the generals in various colors of clothing lay on the table and snored incomprehensibly.

Li Guangli clapped his hands slightly to summon the guards, and then opened his mouth and ordered, "Send the generals back to the camp to rest."

A moment later.

The snoring sound of the Chinese army's big tent completely restored its previous quiet and solemnity.

"Brother Zhanying." Li Guangli slowly got up and looked at the Wei Guogong Gu Zhanying beside him, who was also not very drunk.

Then he continued to ask, "How are things arranged?"

Gu Zhanying slowly got up, clasped his fists and saluted, "General Hui has been arranged."

"That's good, that's good." Li Guangli muttered in a low voice when he heard this.
