……

In the Golden Horde, Tuoba Hongye was very troubled.

Since the beginning of August, more than 20,000 people have fled one after another due to hunger and cold, and some of the Yawata soldiers have fled directly into the Xuanwu Pass.

This dealt a blow to Tuoba Hongye, which meant that his prestige in the Monro Empire was no longer as convincing to his people as before.

The army's morale is weak, food and salary are scarce, and the capture of Xuanwu Pass is still far away, so that this overlord of the unified grassland has a strong sense of powerlessness from the bottom of his heart for the first time.

Now Tuoba Hongye no longer has the heroic posture of galloping on horseback back in the past, just like an old man in his twilight years, feeling lonely.

He thought of Wei Rong, the princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty and his favorite concubine, and he really wanted to go to her bedroom again at this moment and quietly watch her become a female celebrity.

is old, the former prairie eagle, after all, is still old, his energy is no longer abundant, especially after experiencing this endless war, which makes his whole person look unprecedented decadent.

The brazier in the tent was still burning brightly, and the soft sound of the mutton fat torch burning still echoed in my ears.

For a moment, Tuoba Hongye felt that everything in front of him was so unfamiliar, and even doubted that he was really the Holy Emperor who single-handedly created the Mengluo Empire.

He had a dream, dreaming that he had leveled the Xuanwu Pass with the invincible iron horsemen in the world, dreamed that the people from all over the Central Plains were wailing under the gallop of the iron hooves of Mengluo Hachiman, and dreamed that he was sitting on the palace hall of Shendu (Liu Ce changed its name to Chang'an) and conquered the rich land and his people here.

This dream really made him linger, because in that dream, there was no Liu Ce, no Han army, and no Jingwei Flame Daxu that people wanted to see.

That's right, it's Liu Ce! That's him! Ruthlessly shatter his dreams, it's him! Let the steppe peoples fall apart.

Why such a formidable opponent? Is it providence?

Who would have thought that the people of the Central Plains, who were obedient in the past, would become brave and resistant under his command, and the corrupt army would become brave and good at fighting under his training.

Why, why did such a formidable opponent appear? is like an iron wall, let your hegemony stop here.

"Liu Ce! cough cough cough ......"

Thinking of the excitement, Tuoba Hongye coughed violently.

He covered his mouth with a handkerchief, and suddenly felt a sweet throat, and when he looked again, a pool of blood appeared on the silk handkerchief.

Tuoba Hongye was shocked in his heart, this is a bad omen, his body has been dragged down by this war, if he can't have a result soon, once his illness is known, the Mengluo Empire is very likely to collapse instantly.

In fact, the Monroe Empire still existed in the form of a tribe, with the royal court as the center and expanding outward.

This form of empire is full of drawbacks, and in order to compete for some resources, the ministries will only care about their own interests, and will not consider the feelings of the empire at all.

Tuoba Hongye is here, and he can still order all the ministries to bring them together, but once Tuoba Hongye is gone, it will immediately fall apart......

Just like the Mongol Empire in the previous life, not long after the fall of Genghis Khan, the huge empire was immediately divided into four khanates by his descendants, who fought with each other endlessly, and in just over a hundred years, they were immediately beaten back to their original shape.

This is the nature of the nomadic people, where personal interests are above the interests of the state, and there is no complete idea of unification.

The former lord of the grassland dragged the blood-stained handkerchief in the palm of his hand, determined to step into the rich land of the Central Plains before his life came to an end.

However, as soon as the idea of Tuoba Hongye arose, a bad news suddenly came from outside the tent.

"Oh no, Holy Emperor, something big has happened!" Tuoba Xi, the staff officer of the army, rushed into the big tent with a sad face, and immediately knelt in front of Tuoba Hongye, "The owner of the White Banner Banner, Wei Chi Brown, led 100,000 soldiers and horses from the headquarters in the early hours of this morning and left the camp!" ”

"What did you say!" Tuoba Hongye was shocked, "Why is such an important matter only reported now!" ”

Tuoba Xi bowed his head and said, "The Holy Emperor is angry, and the minions have just discovered that the main camp of Wei Chiqi is empty." ”

Tuoba Hongye got up "hoof": "100,000 horses, all the work of one night actually ran away, I actually know now!" Do they still take me, the Emperor of Monroe, seriously? Someone! ”

"Report ~~ Oh no, Holy Emperor~~"

Another bad news came in the exclamation of the subordinates.

"Qi Qi Holy Emperor, the banner master of He Dan was dissatisfied with the distribution of grain and grass in the army, and led 70,000 horses and horses embroidered white flags and left the camp an hour ago......."

Tuoba Hongye's cheeks turned pale when he heard this, and nearly 200,000 horses and horses with two white flags left the army without permission regardless of their own decisions, and this situation had exceeded his expectations.

Now, how can this battle be fought?

Tuoba Hongye sat weakly on the chair, and suddenly the six gods were lost.

The main force of the six hatans under the Xuanwu Pass left a total of two of them, which dealt a greater blow to the already floating military spirit, and it can be said that this war has been lost.

However, what frightened Tuoba Hongye more than the defeat of the war was that the Monro Empire was very likely to be in turmoil from then on, falling into an endless civil war.

This is a scene that Tuoba Hongye does not want to see, but he has to take precautions to deal with it.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

The anxious Tuoba Hongye coughed violently again, covering his mouth tightly with a cloth.

Tuoba Xi, who was kneeling on the ground, caught a glimpse of it from the corner of his eye, and there was a trace of blood left at the corner of Tuoba Hongye's mouth, and his heart suddenly tightened.

"I'm afraid the Holy Emperor's health is not optimistic, in case there is an accident, what should I do?"

Tuoba Hongye gasped and said to Tuoba Xi: "Tuoba Xi, you immediately send an order to the whole army, and three days later, the whole army will pull out the camp and return to the royal court." ”

"The minions obey."

Tuoba Xi took the order and left, leaving Tuoba Hongye alone in the golden tent shaking his head and sighing, his face full of unwillingness and chagrin......

At this moment, Yu Chi Brown Lan had already led 100,000 horses from his headquarters to run hundreds of miles overnight.

Looking at the grasslands covered in silver frost, he raised his head to the sky and roared, and then shouted to his subordinates: "Warriors! It's time for us to end this war and return to our homeland!

The Holy Emperor is old, he is no longer the male lord of the year, he should not choose to launch a war against the Central Plains at such a time, the warriors of our Yuchi tribe cannot die meaninglessly,

So, let's go home, back to our own home! Let's go, warriors! ”

"Whoa~~"

In response to Yu Chi Brown, there was a wolf howl that shook the sky, and all faces were full of excitement.

At this time, Yu Chi Brownlan's younger brother, Yu Chi Xun said nervously: "Banner Master, aren't we afraid that the Holy Emperor will blame us if we do this?" ”

No, Yu Chi Brown Lan replied: "If the Holy Emperor dares to attack, will the 200,000 warriors of our Wei Chi tribe sit back and wait to be killed?"

Of course it can't be, whoever dares to stop us from going home is our enemy, no matter who the opponent is, it will not be allowed!

What's more, the Holy Emperor doesn't have the energy to target us, go, go home! ”

"Whoa~~"

In the midst of the earth-shattering cheers, the warriors of the White Banner tribe embarked on the return journey together.
