Zuo Huan, the chief general of the Qin army, led the other generals of the Qin army to meet Qin Ning, and Qin Ning introduced the royal family of the bloodthirsty clan to the generals of the Qin army, and the two sides exchanged pleasantries and entered the camp.

Qin Ning was most concerned about the loss of contact between the Qin army of the Abyss Empire and the Blue Star Empire, and after coming to the camp, Qin Ning immediately entered the topic and asked Zuo Huan to report on the relevant issues.

Zuo Huan is also the background of the old Qin army, and he entered the Qin army at about the same time as Mu Xiongtian. He is calm and dignified, otherwise Qiu Wenhe would not have entrusted such an important place to Zuo Huan to guard.

According to Zuo Huan, everything happened too suddenly.

Originally, after the Qin army entered here, they immediately reported to the approaching bloodthirsty army and the Xiongshui army, explaining that the Qin army was now dealing with things in the Abyss Empire, and he was here to prevent possible accidents, and hoped that the armies of the two clans would understand and cooperate.

Of course, the people sent by Zuo Huan also faintly pointed out that the Qin army had drawn a cordon here, that is, the Qin army was stationed within a radius of 30 miles of Sanssouci Ridge was a military restricted area, and all armed forces entering this area would be regarded as enemies and exterminated.

The armies of the two ethnic groups understood this, and they were also stationed thirty miles away from Sanssouci Ridge, and even the daily military patrols abided by the Qin army's hints about the cordon, and each other's well water did not interfere with the river water.

In order to prevent possible emergencies, Zuo Huan also specially sent a large number of scouts to investigate, and paid attention to the situation of the bloodthirsty and Xiongshui tribe armies at any time.

Just five days ago, something unexpected happened. Zuo Huan found that none of the scouts he sent out had come back, so he sent additional scouts here to look for the missing scouts, but unexpectedly, these scouts were also gone.

Zuo Huan felt that something was wrong, so he wanted to contact Qiu Wenhe, but he didn't expect to be unable to get in touch. contacted the Blue Star Empire again, but also lost contact. Zuo Huan felt that the situation was very serious, so he convened the generals to discuss, and prepared to send a force of 10,000 people to the west to contact the direction of Lingtu City.

But at this time, the bloodthirsty clan suddenly increased its troops in the direction and immediately advanced to the Sanssouci Ridge and set up camp.

According to the agreement in advance, Zuo Huan could strike preemptively, but Zuo Huan considered that the opponent had too many troops, so instead of fighting to the death, it was better to stick to the standby, and formed a confrontation with the bloodthirsty army under Sanssouci Ridge. The 10,000 troops were not sent out because of the urgency of the situation.

Because of the continuous disappearance of the scouts, Zuo Huan simply stopped sending scouts, so he didn't know what the reason for the lack of communication around him.

Qin Ning listened, nodded again and again: "General Zuo, you are right to deal with it this way, the lone army hangs outside, and self-protection is the most important thing." By the way, have you ever paid attention to what is going on over there at the Bear Water Tribe?"

Zuo Huan replied: "Your Majesty, how can the minister not pay attention to the situation over there? The scouts sent to the direction of the Xiongshui tribe came back quite a lot, and reported that there was no change in the Xiongshui tribe's army, but some scouts found that a large number of envoys of the bloodthirsty tribe had gone to the Xiongshui tribe's army. ”

Qin Ning nodded and said, "It seems that this part of the bloodthirsty clan army wants to unite with the Xiongshui clan army to attack us, if we add the 200,000 Xiongshui clan army, even if Sanssouci Ridge is dangerous, the pressure is also huge." ”

Speaking of this, Qin Ning suddenly turned to the Bloodthirsty Emperor and smiled: "Your Majesty, I don't know which general is the commander of the Bloodthirsty Army?"

The Bloodthirsty Emperor said with shame on his face: "Your Majesty the Great Qin Emperor don't call me that, I am now a family and a country that is difficult to escape, and I can almost be regarded as the king of the fallen country." If you can afford me, just call me Yuanmeng, the emperor's majesty said, cough, I really dare not be ashamed. ”

Qin Ning hurriedly said with relief: "You and I once swore an oath to be allies and never renounce it, you didn't break your word, it was the rebels of the bloodthirsty clan who broke your word, I know this very well." Since you are so sincere, I will call you Brother Yuanmeng, and you will call me Brother Qin Ning, I hope that the friendship between the Blue Star Empire and the Bloodthirsty Clan will always be maintained. ”

Yuan Meng's eyes were full of tears, and he held Qin Ning's hands tightly and said: "The wind knows the strength of the grass, and the people can see the hearts of the people in trouble." Brother Qin Ning, I know this matter, I really saw your righteousness Bo Yuntian, nothing else, I will rush you to this, I make a blood oath on behalf of the bloodthirsty clan, the bloodthirsty clan and the Great Qin Dynasty have a brotherly friendship for generations, and will never betray, if you violate this word, heaven and earth will be punished together!"

Qin Ning also held Yuan Meng's hands tightly and said: "Big brother, we should be like this, the Xiuzhen world is big enough to allow us to live together, like this, being sow discord by others, the Blue Star Clan and the Bloodthirsty Clan are killing each other, and in the end, there is nothing to gain except for increasing hatred and death." ”

"That's it, Brother Qin Ning, at the beginning, I listened to your advice, and the leading general sent by me was my confidant general, named Wu Chou, this person should be able to carry out my intentions and not have a major conflict with the Qin army. But later, cough ......"

The usurpation of Yuanmeng happened almost instantly, and no matter how unbearable this past is, it has to be said. Between the crown prince Yuanjing and his second son Yuan Huan, Yuan Meng had already intended to let Yuan Huan out to be the prince of a place, and he was worthy of this son.

Comparatively speaking, the prince Yuanjing is weaker, and the second son Yuanjie is powerful and powerful, originally the bloodthirsty clan is respected by the brave, but Yuanjie is too domineering and brutal, so the bloodthirsty clan still supports the prince more.

Just ten days ago, someone reported that the second son Yuan Jian had a very close relationship with the people of the Heavenly Realm, and Yuan Meng took precautions and wanted to release Yuan Jian first. As long as he is far away from the royal center of the bloodthirsty clan, no matter how much Yuan Ji tosses, it is useless.

But before Yuan Meng's release order was issued, Kong Sanye and Qian Hetian suddenly visited the Bloodthirsty Imperial Palace late at night, saying that there was an urgent matter to summon all the royal families.

Even if Yuan Meng didn't want to do it, he called all the royal families and listened to Kong Sanye's lecture.

But Kong Sanye did not move, and was silent for nearly an hour, and Yuan Jian led his own pro-army guards into the palace. Kong Sanye didn't say a word from beginning to end, but in front of the rebels, all the qiē were so pale.

Family affection, morality, and heavenly principles are all useless.

Under the authority of Yuan Huan, many members of the royal family defected and joined the rebellion of Yuan Huan, and proclaimed Yuan Jian as the new bloodthirsty emperor. The members of the royal family who were unwilling to cooperate with Gen Yuanjian were all escorted to the prison cell.

According to Yuan Meng's analysis, when Yuan Ji mobilized the army, he had to use his own henchmen and generals. The 600,000 troops who came over to reinforce Sanssouci Ridge, such a heavy military operation, should be Kan Yong, the first confidant general under Yuan Huan.

"Is it possible for Kan Yong to win over this person?" "Qin Ning's most urgent thing now is to open up the connection between the Blue Star Empire and the Qin Army of the Abyss Empire, so dealing with the bloodthirsty rebels who are close at hand is the most important thing.

Yuan Meng didn't want to shake his head and said: "It's impossible, Kan Yong and Yuan Jian are a deep relationship formed in blood and fire, and Yuan Jian also saved Kan Yong's life in battle." Kan Yong is so stupid and loyal, even if he wants his life, he will not betray Yuan Huan. ”

"Hmm!" Qin Ning nodded, falling into deep thought, and after a while, Qin Ning asked, "In the bloodthirsty army, Yuan Jian has just ascended the throne, can he be recognized and supported by everyone?"

Yuan Meng thought for a moment and replied: "In addition to Yuan Ji's henchmen, there are also some people who have good personal relations with Yuan Ji, and these people should be able to support him." But counting these people, the number will not be too many, and more generals are still loyal to me. It's just ......"

Qin Ning knew what Yuanmeng meant, and hurriedly said: "Big brother, don't be sad, now Yuanmeng's rebellion is just a momentary prestige, and when we settle accounts with him, we will return it with interest." ”

Speaking of this, Qin Ning asked Zuo Huan to take the local map of Sanssouci Ridge, carefully studied it for a long time, and said to Yuan Meng: "Big brother, the rebellion of Yuan Huan seems to be a dispute within the bloodthirsty clan, but it is actually a bureau carefully planned by Kong Sanye and these people. If we want to break this situation, we can't just focus on the power struggle of the bloodthirsty people. ”

Qin Ning pointed to the map: "Look, Kong Sanye's move is actually very clever, instigating the rebellion of the bloodthirsty clan, in fact, putting the entire bloodthirsty clan in the most critical position. The Qin army was connected with each other through communication equipment and a large teleportation array. And this qiē all needs to be connected by an intermediate transfer station. ”

Speaking of this, Qin Ning sighed and said, "In the past, the Qin army lived in harmony with various ethnic groups, and these transit stations were actually under the influence of their allies, so there was nothing to worry about. A small conflict doesn't affect anything, but once a large-scale confrontation occurs, the opposing side is enough to destroy these facilities of the Qin army. ”

The idea has become clearer and clearer, and the only way to solve the current dilemma is to get in touch. And in the case of losing contact, it is a bit unlikely that it can be completed without sufficient material supplies just by relying on the 200,000 Qin troops in Sanssouci Ridge.

Zuo Huan suddenly said: "Your Majesty, since you have this idea, you might as well let me take 10,000 elite soldiers and march all the way west to our station in the Abyss Empire, and ask for reinforcements in terms of troops and materials, so that you can break the blockade of the opposite army in one fell swoop, so as to open up the connection between the Blue Star Empire and the Abyss Empire." ”

Qin Ning smiled: "General Zuo, this matter is not that simple. In the Abyss Empire, the main force of the Qin army gathered in Lingtu City, and was confronting the other forces of the Abyss Empire. All the Qin army garrisons have basically been emptied, and it would be good if they could protect themselves, and they would not be able to reinforce here at all. ”R1152
