Chapter 512: The Last Supper on
Li Chenan is not a soft-hearted person.
From the beginning, he never thought about letting Xiahou Zhuo live.
It's not that Xiahou Zhuo lost Jiuyin City, nor did he leave Yanyun Pass without permission.
It's that this Xiahou Zhuo is here to kill himself!
This kind of person will be very stubborn in thinking, will have a clear goal, but still have that kind of strength!
He would never do such a thing as letting the tiger return to the mountain.
Even if Xiahou Zhuo seemed to have remorse, he had no intention of changing his mind.
He didn't want to guard his back.
I don't want to test the complicated hearts of others because of the so-called kindness.
It's getting dark, and I can't get there tonight.
He ordered Zhou Zheng and the others to set up barracks on the snow far from the battlefield.
In his tent, Xiahou Zhuo sat opposite him.
Xiao Baozi sat on his left, and Ning Chuchu sat on his right.
He also had some questions to ask Xiahou Zhuo.
Like what......
He poured a cup of tea for Xiahou Zhuo and handed it over:
"What do you think of the Great Wilderness Country?"
"Yuwenfeng, worthy of the word hero!"
Xiahou Zhuo paused while holding the teacup, and then said:
"In the original Northern Desert, there were forty-seven nomadic tribes, large and small."
"We in Ningguo collectively call them barren people because they don't farm, and they don't have any cultural inheritance."
"It's some herdsmen who ride on horses and chase the grass."
"There is no fixed place to live, and there is only cattle and sheep for food."
"They are extremely warlike, they don't pay attention to inheritance, let alone etiquette, they only pay attention to force!"
"They believe only in force!"
"Yuwenfeng was born in the Xiushan tribe, and in the spring of the seventeenth year of Zhaohua, the Xiushui Plain grazing by the Xiushan tribe was in a great drought, resulting in no grass for the cattle and sheep of the Xiushan tribe."
He led the young men of the Xiushan tribe to find a way for the tribe to survive...... He opened a bloody road! ”
"In just three years, he has conquered the entire grassland, defeated all the forty-seven tribes on the grassland, and the chiefs of all the tribes have worshiped him as king......"
"He unified the entire steppe with great force!"
"Then the huge Northern Desert was divided into twenty-seven states, and the Great Wilderness City was established in Nanxi Prefecture, which is closest to the border of Ningguo."
"This move is very meaningful, from the Great Wilderness City to the Nine Yin City, but it is only three hundred miles."
"This person is very different from the rest of the desolate people."
Li Chenan was slightly stunned, "What's the difference?" ”
"He understands the culture of the Central Plains, and even he knows the culture of the Central Plains very well."
"He led the men of the Xiushan tribe to fight not brutely, but adopted many strategies."
"After he unified the Northern Desert, the management of the Northern Desert was almost the same as that of the Central Plains."
"He divided twenty-seven states, established state towns, and settled the originally nomadic desolate people."
"He let the women among the desolate people graze and the men reclaim the wasteland, and he introduced the planting technology of the Central Plains, and now the grain yield of the desolate people is not much lower than that of Ningguo."
"He incorporated the original strong men of various tribes into his army, formed the number of 130,000 iron cavalry in the Northern Desert, and divided it into thirteen cavalry battalions, called the Thirteen Eagles of the Northern Desert, which belonged to the six border armies."
"But the most powerful cavalry is the five thousand horsemen he trained himself, and they are called the Condor!"
"In short, this person has extremely high attainments, both in military and political affairs, and the future is ...... I am afraid that the Great Wilderness Country will become a trouble in the heart of Ning Guo. ”
"If you ascend the throne as emperor, you must not underestimate this person!"
Li Chenan pondered for a moment.
He didn't expect Xiahou Zhuo to have such a high praise for Yuwen Peak.
Of course, he hadn't paid attention to the Great Wilderness Country that day, and when he heard the name Yuwenfeng, he was in Guangling City in March last year.
Zhongli Ruoshui mentioned it when he was chatting with him in Peach Blossom Villa.
She said that it was Ning Chuchu who said it.
From this point of view, Ning Chuchu at that time took this Yuwenfeng very seriously, and he thought that Xiahou Zhuo at that time had already told the prince Ning Zhiyi through letters, so Ning Chuchu knew something about Yuwenfeng.
"This Yuwenfeng once studied in a certain country in the Central Plains?"
Xiahou Zhuo shook his head, "I don't know, but it should be." ”
Li Chenan didn't ask again.
But for the Great Wilderness Country and Yuwen Peak, he attached great importance to it.
When the spies of the Imperial City Division were sent to pay close attention to Yuwen Feng's every move.
At present, it is not possible to start a war against the Great Wilderness Country, and the Nine Yin City ...... There is no way to recapture Jiuyin City now, because the negotiations of the envoys of the Wu State will not have a good result.
After the Wu delegation returned to China, it could launch a war against Ning at any time.
With the current national strength of Ningguo, it can't support two major wars at all.
In the north of Ningguo, there is still Yanyun Pass to defend, and Yuwenfeng did not lead troops to attack...... I am afraid that there are also some contradictions in the country of his Great Wilderness.
But Wu is different.
Wu Qian, the crown prince of Wu, was about to ascend the throne as emperor.
If he wins the Boundless Pass, it will be a huge credit.
And the position of Wuyaguan is not only extremely important to the Wu State, but also to the Ning State.
If you hold the Boundless Pass, you will be able to hold the army of Wu State outside the pass.
If the boundless pass is lost, the army of Wu can drink the Ma Yudan River at any time, and even Muma Annan Dao!
Li Chenan took a sip of tea, raised his eyes, and asked, "Do you have any last words?" ”
Of course, Xiahou Zhuo knew that he was going to die, and he didn't have the slightest luck.
He looked at Ning Chuchu, and he could see that the fourth princess was in love with this regent.
That's a good thing.
It is also the best home for the four princesses.
"Be kind to Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess."
When Ning Chuchu heard this, his face immediately turned crimson.
Li Chenan was slightly stunned, "Don't worry about this, what about the others?" ”
Xiahou Zhuo grinned: "I haven't eaten a grain of rice until last night, I'm very hungry, let me eat enough and cut myself off!" ”
"Good!"
At this moment, there was a noise outside the tent, and many messy footsteps.
Li Chenan looked up and saw Amu walking in.
"A lot of people came."
“…… Who? ”
"It's the people of Feng County."
"What are they doing?"
"Deliver food...... So much to eat! ”
"Say thank you, treat us, take it or not?"
Li Chenan thought for a while and got up, "Pick up, go, let's pick it up together...... You can follow along. ”
Xiahou Zhuo also stood up, followed Li Chenan and the others out of the camp tent, and came to the outside of the camp.
As far as the eye can see, many lanterns and torches illuminate this vast area of snow.
The air was filled with the smell of all kinds of meals, and under those lanterns and torches, there were people who were expectant, but very afraid.
In front of them was a long row of Xuanjia Battalion soldiers wearing armor and holding long knives-
Zhou Zheng doesn't know what the situation is!
What if there are assassins in here?
But Li Chenan walked over and said to Zhou Zheng: "Let the soldiers put away their knives...... Ningren's knife, I hope never to face Ningren! ”
