As the saying goes: a thousand miles of embankment collapses in an anthill.

In fact, most of the big routs on the battlefield are caused by a small factor.

And under this small factor, the balance of victory will be completely tilted until it can no longer be recovered.

In the end, the defeated side was defeated, and the remnants were also unknown.

For example, the big battle in front of Emperor Yu's ancestral tomb now.

Originally, the Dayu coalition army was still able to stabilize the formation under the impact of the grassland cavalry.

Even Mu Xiayan wanted to use this to consume the combat power of the steppe cavalry, and wait until they were exhausted before launching a counterattack.

But the expectation is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

Just when the Dayu coalition army was holding its position and preparing to wait for work, the impact of the steppe cavalry suddenly stalled.

Immediately, the steppe cavalry immediately retreated, and the encirclement of the Dayu coalition disappeared at once.

Originally, Mu Xiayan, Shi Wensheng and others thought that the grassland army was aware of their plan and was ready not to attack again.

But they soon realized that they were too optimistic.

When all the grassland cavalry retreated to the entrance of Emperor Yu's ancestral mausoleum, Muhua Li Falcon rode a war horse and slowly walked out of the grassland cavalry formation.

Mu Xiayan could see at a glance that this person should be the real commander of this steppe cavalry army.

"Who is the person in front of him who is the Zongzheng Temple of the Dayu Dynasty?"

Mu Hua Li Falcon then asked loudly.

Mu Xiayan saw that the other party was the first to ask questions, and he immediately stood up, and then said coldly to Mu Hua Li Falcon.

"I am the Zongzheng Temple of the Dayu Dynasty, who is His Excellency Sizheng?"

"I am the steppe wolf, the shaman of the court, the wood of the Hua Li Falcon."

Mu Hua Li Falcon behaved quite elegantly when facing Mu Xiayan.

He even owed a slight debt to Mu Xia Yan when he spoke.

However, his actions did not make the Dayu coalition side have much of a change in his opinion.

In their opinion, this self-proclaimed shaman has always been a steppe barbarian.

"I don't know why Your Excellency brought troops to my Jinling City today?"

Although Mu Xiayan knew very well what Mu Hua Li Falcon was leading these steppe cavalry south, it was for.

But he still asked.

After all, if he could hear about the deal between him and Emperor Shengheng from Muhua Li Falcon's mouth, then he would have enough reasons to completely remove Emperor Shengheng from the throne in the future.

But obviously, Mu Huali Falcon also knew what Mu Xiayan really thought in his heart.

Therefore, he couldn't help but smile slightly, and then said loudly to Mu Xiayan.

"Sizheng, you and I are both understanding people, and there is no need for us to talk to each other here."

Mu Huali Falcon was not disdainful of Mu Xiayan's clichés.

At the same time, as a grassland person, he also dislikes Dayu people very much, all kinds of guns, sticks, or scheming when they speak.

"Good! Since Your Excellency said so, then I will no longer beat around the bush, I just want to know what conditions Your Excellency needs to withdraw your troops this time? ”

Mu Xiayan saw that the other party was not fooled, so he simply stopped thinking of a snake with him.

"Withdraw troops? Actually, it's not impossible! ”

Mu Hua Li Falcon didn't expect Mu Xiayan to be so direct.

"Condition!"

Although Mu Xiayan was very disgusted with these steppe cavalry in his heart, and even he wanted to eat their flesh and drink their blood, but now he knew that the forces on his side were still a little weak, and it was impossible to kill all these steppe cavalry.

Even if they were to be driven out completely, a large number of soldiers would have to be lost.

And if you can give some benefits through negotiations, and want these steppe cavalry to take the initiative to retreat, it will be a good deal.

He could even use this to disgust Emperor Shengheng and the imperial court.

"Our conditions are very simple, our clan wolf king god shaman received the oracle of the wolf king god some time ago, saying that your Dayu Dynasty founding emperor mausoleum has my grassland tribe's one pole nine white silk, that is my wolf king god to the grassland tribes of the divine object, was robbed by your Taizu Emperor, this time we came to bring this artifact back."

Muhua Li Falcon put forward the first condition.

"Nine white silks?"

The people on Da Yu's side frowned when they heard this term.

In their impressions, they had never heard of such a thing, and because they didn't know that the last dragon vein was sealed in the palace of Emperor Taizu of Dayu, they also thought that the grassland cavalry had traveled thousands of miles south for the sake of this Nine White Silk.

Even Mu Xiayan had heard of this for the first time.

But Mu Xiayan knew that this so-called Nine White Silks was just a disguise, and the real purpose of these grassland barbarians was to destroy the last dragon vein of the Dayu Dynasty.

However, Mu Xiayan can't say anything about this.

Because the matter of the dragon vein is very important, once it spreads, I am afraid that all the people in the world who have a heart will be ready to move.

At that time, even if their Zongzheng Temple sent people to guard it day and night, it is estimated that it will be difficult to ensure the safety of Emperor Yu's ancestral tomb.

So he could only pretend not to know, and then pull the question to the nine white silks.

"This nine-pronged white ox is a three-pronged spear made of ironwood, and later the shamans of the Wolf Court put a layer of gold on the outside and made it into a large flag, which is a symbol of the divine power of our Wolf Court."

Mu Hua Li Falcon had already thought of an excuse to open the imperial tomb of the Dayu Dynasty before he set off.

"Humph! Ridiculous, how can the things on your grassland be buried in the imperial tomb by my Emperor Dayu. ”

Mu Xiayan immediately snorted coldly after hearing what this Nine Hundred White Silk was, and then sneered.

"That is, you said that this thing is in the tomb of our Emperor Taizu, what evidence do you have?"

Shi Wensheng also knew that what the grassland people said was an excuse to open Emperor Taizu's palace if they wanted.

"Don't you know if you open the imperial mausoleum of Emperor Dayu Taizu!"

Mu Hua Li Falcon didn't panic at all in the face of Mu Xiayan and Shi Wensheng's questions, he just replied lightly.

"Ridiculous, is it just because you just say empty words that you want us to open the mausoleum of our Emperor Taizu?"

When Mu Xia Yan heard this, he immediately said angrily.

"If we say that our Huaxia heirloom jade seal is on your Wolf Residence Mountain, can we also send troops to blast your Wolf Residence Mountain into gravel with thunder, and then rummage carefully?"

Mu Xiayan then asked loudly again.

"In this case, we can't negotiate this first condition for the time being, so let's talk about the other conditions first!"

Mu Huali Falcon saw that Mu Xia's words were resolute, so he turned to speak again.

"In that case, please put forward other conditions!"

Although the first condition was not negotiated between the two sides.

But this is not a big problem in the eyes of both sides.

After all, the first condition put forward by both sides has the intention of testing both sides.

"The second condition is that you release our captives first."

Mu Hua Li Falcon then put forward the second condition.

And everyone on the side of the Dayu Dynasty all felt a little inexplicable after hearing this condition.

Because so far they have not captured many steppe cavalry.

Even if some of the wounded steppe cavalry were captured, there were no particularly important steppe generals.

So when everyone didn't understand the purpose of this steppe shaman's move.

"I can agree to this condition, but most of your captives have been seriously wounded, and we can't guarantee that they will be alive when they are returned."

After Mu Xia pondered for a moment, although he didn't know what the steppe shaman was going to do, he finally agreed.

"In that case, please return the people who were kidnapped in this imperial tomb before!"

Mu Huali Falcon saw that Mu Xiayan had agreed to the conditions he proposed, and he immediately spoke.

As soon as these words came out, Mu Xiayan immediately realized that the person who was kidnapped in the ancestral tomb of Emperor Yu that Mu Huali said was his true purpose.

In other words, the grassland man who was arrested in the ancestral tomb of Emperor Yu is likely to be an extremely important person.

"Your Excellency, is there any misunderstanding, all our people are here, and no one has entered the ancestral tomb of Emperor Yu, let alone the people who have arrested you!"

Mu Xiayan explained with a frown.

"Everyone is a smart person, and please don't deceive yourself."

The original smile on Mu Huali Falcon's face disappeared suddenly when he heard this.

"Where did the shaman say this, we really didn't send people to the ancestral tomb of Emperor Yu."

Mu Xiayan saw that Mu Hua Li Falcon's face was cold, and he explained in understanding.

"The premise of the negotiation between us is to be sincere, if you have this attitude, then there is no need for negotiations between us."

As he spoke, he turned his horse's head and prepared to walk towards his military formation.

Seeing that Mu Huali Falcon resolutely turned around and left, Mu Xiayan immediately shouted anxiously.

"Your Excellency Shaman, please stay and we have something to say."

"In that case, please show sincerity!"

Mu Huali Falcon turned his head and squinted his eyes and looked at Mu Xiayan coldly.

"Your Excellency Shaman, we really haven't sent anyone into the Ancestral Tomb of Emperor Yu, please trust us!"

When Mu Huali Falcon heard this, his already cold face suddenly became distorted.

"It seems that you really don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin! Or are you not going to make peace with us at all? ”

Mu Hua Li Falcon asked in a cold voice.

"We are sincere and want to understand with you, after all, if we really fight, everyone will be hurt."

Mu Xiayan then said.

"Humph! Do you think we still care about losses? I took 20,000 cavalry and went deep into your territory alone, and I have long put life and death out of the way. ”

Mu Hua Li Falcon said with a wicked smile.

His smile made Wan Qi Yue Le on the side feel a little chilly.

"Your Excellency Shaman, we have both reached the point of fighting each other, do you think I still need to lie about this?"

Mu Xiayan finally straightened his face at this time, and he said righteously.

"Alright! In that case, please take a look at these people and see if you know them. ”

Mu Huali Falcon looked at Mu Xiayan with a cold face, and then waved his hand behind him.

Soon a dozen steppe cavalrymen poured out behind him.

And all of them were armed with a man covered in blood.

"I wonder if Teramasa knows these people?"

As Mu Hua Li Falcon's words fell, those steppe cavalry immediately grabbed those covered in blood, and then straightened their faces towards Mu Xiayan's side.

"Mu Zhantu!"

Mu Xiayan immediately exclaimed when he saw the nearest person.

And everyone behind him was all surprised when they heard this.

"It seems that the temple still knows this person!"

Mu Huali Falcon saw that Mu Xiayan recognized these people he had caught, and he couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.

"I do know these people!"

Mu Xia was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he finally spoke.

"Since you know each other, please hand over your captives, or I won't mind killing them all."

Immediately, Mu Hua Li Falcon directly drew out his scimitar and put it on the neck of the old Huainan King.

Mu Xiayan on the other side couldn't help but show horror when he saw this.

"Your Excellency Shaman, I have just said that we really did not send anyone to the Ancestral Tomb of Emperor Yu, the person in front of you is my kindred, he was not sent by me into the Ancestral Tomb of Emperor Yu."

Mu Xiayan hurriedly explained.

"So the thousands of people he led aren't your men?"

Mu Huali couldn't help frowning when he heard this.

He had thought that the people he met in the forest were all sent by Mu Xiayan.

And he happened to seize the generals in this team to exchange for Murong Tongwei by alliing with Dayu.

But he didn't expect that these people he caught were not sent by the Dayu Alliance.

This means that Murong Tongwei may not be in the hands of the Dayu Alliance.

But then he thought about whether the person he caught was of the same clan as Dayu Temple, which showed that this person was still very important to Mu Xiayan.

Since Mu Xiayan cares about this person very much, then he can use this as a threat and ask Mu Xiayan to help him find Murong Tongwei.

"These people are not my subordinates."

Mu Xiayan immediately explained to Mu Huali Falcon.

"I don't care if these people are yours or not, you are all from the Dayu Dynasty, I just need you to let us go, otherwise, I don't mind killing them in front of you."

Mu Hua Li Falcon said and used a little force in his hand.

Immediately, the blade was directly pressed against the neck of the old Huainan King.

A tingling sensation immediately spread down his skin to the old Huainan King's brain.

"Your Excellency Shaman, please slow down, I need to ask me what is going on with my kindred."

Mu Xiayan immediately spoke out to stop Mu Hua Li Falcon from continuing to hurt the old Huainan King.

Immediately, Mu Xiayan asked the old Huainan King what was going on.

At this moment, although the old Huainan King felt extremely aggrieved, he finally told the story of the matter in order not to die in the hands of these grassland barbarians.

"Your Excellency Shaman, you must have understood, the people who captured your companions this time were not us Dayu soldiers, they were just ordinary outcasts."

"Humph! Hugh wants to use the exiles as an excuse to perfunctory me, those guys, even if they are exiles, they are also from your Dayu Dynasty, I only need you to hand over my people, otherwise Hugh blames us for being polite. ”

Mu Hua Li Falcon snorted coldly and said.

"Zhantu, do you know where Li Yi's kid went?"

Mu Xiayan then asked.

"They should be heading to Jinling City."

Old King Huainan spoke.

"In that case, please wait a moment, Your Excellency Shaman, and I'll send someone to bring your people over."

Mu Xiayan turned his head and said to Mu Hua Li Falcon.

"So I'll wait here."

Mu Hua Li Falcon then said with a smile on his face.

But when he turned his head, the smile on his face suddenly subsided.

"Let the sons and daughters immediately seize the time to rest!"

At the same time, after Mu Xiayan turned his head, he also said the same thing as Mu Huali Falcon.

"Arrange for a few people to go back to the city, and inform all the soldiers to hurry up and rest."
