Although it is easy to talk and laugh, it is not a simple matter to go to the grassland to settle accounts with the grassland people.

Strategically despising the enemy is still something to be paid attention to tactically.

made the decision to go to the Wuhuan people, Xu Huabiao found Jin Xiaoyuan and arranged for her to send a letter to Li Xiuman, explaining the situation on this side, and explaining that if necessary, Li Xiuman was still preparing for this, and he might need to lead his own troops to expedition to Wuhuan.

On the other side, the Shence Army, which had rested for a month, also moved quickly and entered a state of combat readiness, feeding the horses and preparing food.

An Youzhen searched in Beiping City for two days, and found a merchant who had been trading with the Wuhuan people all year round, and he said that he could find the spring pasture of the Wuhuan people, so three days later, Xu Huabiao led all the Luoyang personnel in Beiping to embark on the road to the grassland together.

It is said that he is going to the grassland, but in fact, he still goes to the northeast first.

After passing through Lelang County, he broke away from the official road and did not follow the road to the east to Xiangping, but continued to the northeast.

After more than 20 days of marching, the Shence army finally came to the spring pasture of the Wuhuan people.

To Xu Huabiao's surprise, there didn't seem to be any scouts too far away on the Wuhuan side, and it wasn't until the Shence Army was wandering around the grassland looking for them that the Wuhuan people finally came up to connect.

Even, the person who joined this joint was not a scout specially arranged by the Wuhuan people.

An ordinary herdsman herding sheep.

It was only because this herdsman who was herding sheep that he had been a member of the cavalry that attacked Li Xiuman in the south before, so he recognized the military flag of the Shence Army and took the initiative to come up and talk.

Knowing that Xu Huabiao came to communicate and negotiate with Wuhuan, he didn't even have any suspicions, so he took them to the Wuhuan gathering place.

smoothly made Xu Huabiao keep asking Han Xiaozhu, who had not fully recovered his body and barely kept up with the road.

"You think this looks like the Wuhuan people attacked you?"

"I won't mistake the Wuhuan people!"

"And what do they mean by that?"

"I don't know."

……

In this way, with doubts, Xu Huabiao and the Shence Army set up camp less than a mile away from the camp inhabited by the Wuhuan people.

The camp was carried out very carefully, Pei Xiuzhi set up a square circle formation that was easy to defend according to the way he was when he was under siege in the old lair of the Black Mountain thieves before, and this time, the blessing of Quan Xiaosheng, who was better at marching than Zheng Xiujing, made this formation even stronger.

Xu Huabiao did not rush to meet their patriarch in the Wuhuan clan, but waited for the camp to be set up, he arranged the rescue arrangements, and only on the morning of the second day of the station, he took Lin Yun'er, and the guards of the Shenji battalion, as well as Quan Xiaosheng and Pei Xiuzhi, who had to go with them anyway, under the leadership of a Wuhuan cavalry who came out of the clan to welcome them, they walked into the Wuhuan camp together.

Because it was just over winter, it was transferred from the winter pasture, and the Wuhuan people were also a mess, some were sorting out the things that had been wintering, and some were in a hurry to take the livestock that had finally survived the winter out to graze and graze......

There was no atmosphere of wartime preparation at all.

All the way to Wuhuan's royal tent, the more suspicious Xu Huabiao became.

It doesn't look like Han Hyo-joo was attacked, right? If it is true, the heart of this Wuhuan person is inevitably too big, right?

Finally, the group came to the Wuhuan King's tent.

Xu Huabiao took Lin Yun'er and Pei Xiuzhi, two personal guards, as well as Quan Xiaosheng, a staff officer, and walked into the king's tent together.

In the king's tent sat several men.

Xu Huabiao was inside and saw two familiar girls.

Sakura Miyawaki and the one standing behind her look more like her guard, Hitomi Honda, than her general.

Of course, Xu Huabiao's gaze fell more on the woman sitting on a tiger skin sitting in the right seat.

The lady ...... Well, it looks more like a queen than Sakura Miyawaki.

"You are the Xu Huabiao that Sakura said?"

"Exactly, you're the Queen of Wuhuan?"

"It's me."

"Shall I address you Your Excellency, or can you tell me your name?"

"My name is Rina Matsui. But...... There's nothing wrong with you calling me Queen. Queen Wuhuan said coldly, "I heard that in the Central Plains, you defeated the eight thousand cavalry led by Sakura with 3,000 cavalry, but is there such a thing?" ”

"Yes, what?"

"I can't really see it." Matsui Zhu Rina glanced at Xu Huabiao very unceremoniously, and then, her eyes fell on Lin Yun'er and Pei Xiuzhi who were following Xu Huabiao, "These two are your guards?" ”

"How?"

"Nothing." Matsui Jurina's tone was somewhat disdainful.

Xu Huabiao heard it and smiled.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Nothing." Xu Huabiao didn't bother to tell the Wuhuan queen how capable the two people who followed him were, "I'm here to ask you something." ”

"What?"

"A month ago, did you send someone to attack the envoy sent by Han Jiaren from Liaodong to the Central Plains?"

Xu Huabiao looked at Matsui Zhu Rina in a daze.

"Sending someone to attack? A month ago, our people were migrating from the winter pastures, where is there any time......"

Halfway through the sentence, I stopped.

The queen's gaze looked at Sakura Miyawaki next to her.

Sakura Miyawaki also looked at her sister.

The two looked at each other, then nodded together.

"Looks like that's the case?" Xu Huabiao's eyes narrowed.

"Yes and how, no? Liaodong Han Jiaren has surrendered to you? Matsui Jurina's gaze was a little cautious.

"The grievances between you and Han Jiaren are not something we can manage for the time being." Xu Huabiao shook his head, "You can settle Han Zhimin's mortal enemy by yourself, but if you did it, I hope you will return the two heads transported by Han Zhimin to me, so that I can take them and hand them over." ”

"Head?"

"Well, Heo Yongsheng and Kim Gyu-jong's heads."

“…… They were actually killed by Han Jiaren?? Matsui Jurina looked incredulous.

Xu Huabiao glanced at Quan Xiaosheng beside him.

Quan Xiaosheng nodded lightly.

Meaning, it seems that Matsui Jurina does not know about human heads.

Then she has no reason to attack Han Zhimin and Han Hyo-joo......

"You want to take revenge on Han Jiaren for them?"

“…… Our relationship has not reached that level, before Sakura took the clan south, it was already regarded as repaying Li Yanhao for helping us with grain and grass when we encountered the white disaster, and his two sons...... It's not worth it. Matsui Jurina shook her head.

"I am glad that Her Excellency can think so." Xu Huabiao nodded, "So, are you denying that you ever sent people to attack Han Zhimin and Han Xiaozhu?" ”

"Han Hyo-joo? She...... Also dead?? When Matsui Jurina heard this, she seemed even more incredulous than she had just been.

"Almost, narrowly escaped with my life. If I hadn't sent someone to Xiangping to look for her, she might have died on the side of the road. ”

“…… Come. Matsui Jurina's face turned blue and she shouted outside the door.

"Yes." A female guard flashed in from outside the tent.

"Go and ask the high priest."

Matsui Jurina's tone sounded unkind.

"Yes."

The guards left.

"So, the high priest did it?" Xu Huabiao looked directly at Sakura Miyawaki and asked.

“…… It's possible. Sakura Miyawaki nodded.

"What did you tell him??" Matsui Jurina, who was sitting on the upper seat, suddenly became anxious and glared at Sakura Miyawaki fiercely.

"Sister, do you think that the things I told you about Lord Xu lied to you? He is really the reincarnation of the god of fire......"

"Ridiculous!"

"You go and ask the six thousand clansmen who have fought against Lord Xu, and they will tell you so."

"Shut up! Leaking the secrets of the clan without permission......"

"Is it okay for your sisters to quarrel and carry me behind my back?" Xu Huabiao interrupted Matsui Zhu Rina who was about to ask Miyawaki Sakira about his crimes, "I'm asking you, did that high priest send people to attack Han Zhimin and Han Hyo-joo, and also snatched the heads of Kim Gyu-jong and Heo Yong-sung?" ”

“…… I'm going to ask him. Matsui Jurina shook her head.

Just then a chubby man walked into the tent.

"Zhu Lina, are you looking for me?" The tone in which the man spoke sounded a little impatient.

"High Priestess, I would like to ask you, have the people you arranged to explore the new pasture a month and a half ago come back?"

"Oh, not yet." The fat man's eyelids jumped, and then he looked at Xu Huabiao next to him.

The eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Who is this guest?"

"Lord Li Xiuman's messenger, Xu Huabiao." Matsui Jurina replied lightly.

“…… Lee so-man's messenger? Don't be deceived by someone who doesn't know where it came from......"

"Go outside and you should find a few thousand people to prove his identity." Sakura Miyawaki took over.

“…… Is it you who he defeated? The fat man's eyes narrowed.

"Alright, don't mess with those useless ones." Xu Huabiao interjected coldly, seeming a little impatient, "You just said that the group of people who attacked Han Xiaozhu and Han Zhimin were not sent by you." ”

"Your Excellency, please don't talk nonsense, I won't forgive you for your offense just because you are not from our people......"

"I've forgiven you for being rude to me. Okay, you answer. ”

"What are you that still commanded me?"

"Your Excellency the Queen, may I ask if this high priest's attitude represents himself or your Wuhuan clan?"

"High Priest, are you okay like this?"

“…… I didn't send anyone. The fat man snorted coldly, replied, and then turned his head to leave.

Then, Lin Yun'er dodged and blocked the door of the tent.

"Childe hasn't finished asking yet, what are you running in a hurry?" Lin Yun'er's eyebrows and eyes were full of contempt.

"What are you......

The fat man stretched out his hand to pull Lin Yun'er.

Then, it was directly ejected. A few steps, almost not standing firm.

When she looked at Lin Yun'er again, her face was ridiculous.

Surina Matsui, who was sitting on the throne, was also taken aback by this sudden change.

Directly in the king's tent?

This...... Not okay?
