Originally, through Bai Li's description, Li Zijun thought that he should have a certain understanding of Wendy's tribe, but when he actually came to the tribe, he was still shocked by the bad situation here.

Wendy clearly has a high level of prestige in the tribe, and when she hears of her return, many people in the tribe come out of the tent to meet her. In the crowd to greet Wendy, Li Zijun could hardly find a single adult man, at first he thought that these men went out to work, or because of some taboo did not come out to greet Wendy, and after hearing Bai Li's explanation, he understood the reason.

It turned out that in the Turk-Hungarian Empire, men over the age of 10 and under the age of 60 were considered men. Half of the men in the Wendy tribe were transferred, and most of the rest were of course children and the elderly, which is why Li Zijun could hardly see adult men.

Not only that, but even these people who came to greet them all looked yellow and thin, and even people with little medical knowledge could easily judge that they were severely malnourished!

The only thing that made Li Zijun feel a little relieved was that these people were in a good mental state, and each of them was dressed neatly and cleanly. In their eyes, Li Zijun saw longing and hope, and the focus of their eyes stayed on Wendy, it was Wendy who gave them the confidence to persevere! At this moment, Li Zijun had a new understanding of Wendy.

"Nurse, when I was about to go out, didn't I tell you to kill a batch of cattle and sheep to replenish everyone's body? Wendy asked, pulling a woman in her fifties.

"Miss, everyone disagrees with slaughtering cattle and sheep in your absence, and we must wait for you to come back!" said the old woman with some embarrassment.

"I brought back a lot of food this time, everyone can have a full meal today!Let's have a bonfire tonight to make a big scene, everyone hurry up and get ready!" Wendy also understood the old woman's embarrassment, and didn't say anything more, she turned her head and waved her arms to the greeting team.

When the greeting team heard Wendy's words, they immediately showed a happy smile and dispersed, each of them went to prepare for the evening party.

"Miss!" Bai Li knew very well that food was not as abundant as Wendy had said, and she wanted to dissuade Wendy from making too much of a fight.

Li Zijun understands that the most scarce thing in the tribe now is no longer food, but a hope. They also know very well that the food that Wendy brought back this time can't solve too big a problem, but they are willing to trust Wendy, believe that Wendy can lead them out of the predicament, and this trust is the motivation for them to persevere. And Wendy had to do something when he came back this time, and for this reason, he quietly pulled Baili away.

"Miss, Prince Luther is waiting for you inside with someone. The old woman saw that everyone had dispersed, so she pulled Wendy aside and said.

"Luther, why is he here, do you know what he came to us for?"

"Sister Wendy, when did you come back, why didn't anyone tell me to come out to greet you?"

Although this person was full of smiles, Li Zijun felt that this person's smile was full of hypocrisy, and he had no good impression of this person. It's just that Li Zijun felt that this person was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him for a while, so he hurriedly turned around and avoided his gaze.

"Prince Luther, you really give me face! You came here in person last time to recruit soldiers, and I don't know what needs to trouble your dignified prince this time?" Wendy said with a wry smile as she looked at Luther.

"Sister Wendy, I really have a little trouble for you! You should have heard that the Queen Mother has issued an order to stop the grain trade, and the part of the grain you purchased happened to be after the ban was issued, so it must be recovered. Eldest sister, you won't be embarrassed for me, will you?"

"Is this Luther the son of Princess Julie, and how many sons does Princess Julie have?" Li Zijun was shocked when he heard Luther's words, and pulled Baili and asked in a low voice.

"Princess Julie is such a son as Luther, and it is rumored that he is very likely to be the next king of the Turk-Hungarian Empire!

"How is that possible!" Li Zijunxin said that I knew, but I couldn't admit it. At this time, he also understood that Weishenme was familiar with this Luther, and there were indeed some places on Luther's face that he imagined with Bilbohm, and he might really be Bilbohm's son. It seems that what Julie said to him in the city of Salat was not all a lie. Li Zijun didn't expect that Uncle Bilbom, who had never married in his life, would really have such a big son, and he was also embarrassed.

"Since Luther is a prince, how do I think he seems to be very scruptuous, and he is very polite when he speaks to Wendy?" Li Zijun was worried that Bai Li would continue to be entangled in this matter, so he hurriedly diverted the topic.

"Our young lady is the daughter of Chief Francis!"

"Chief Francis of the Andya tribe!" Li Zijun had long felt that Wendy's background was not simple, but he really didn't expect that she would be the daughter of the second largest tribal chief in the Turk-Hungarian Empire.

"You know a lot of things! It seems that you may be the great nobleman that Mr. Lindsey said. ”

"You heard that your young lady is starting to play a stinky scoundrel again!" Li Zijun hurriedly changed the topic again.

"You're really chasing after me for such a little food! You can see the situation here, and I'll just say: If you don't have food, you need a life!" Wendy said with a glare.

"Sister Wendy, the empire is in trouble now! Please forgive me!" Li Zijun felt that this kid was obviously hypocritical here, and he had to feel sad for Bilbom to have such a son.

"Don't tell me this, I know that my tribe is about to be unable to open the pot, unless you kill me, or I won't let you take a grain of grain!"

"Sister Wendy, don't be too embarrassed about me! Do you think this will work? I will sell your grain at a price higher than your purchase price, you just need to sell me the 10,000 catties of grain. ”

"You buy grain like this, I can't buy grain even if I have money! Three thousand at most, otherwise don't talk about it!" At this time, Wendy turned into a profiteer's face again, waiting for Luther to bargain with her. Wendy also knew that since Luther had already appeared here, it would definitely not work for him not to take some of it, and she had no choice but to make concessions.

Seeing this Luther pretending for a while, Zuihou opened his mouth and said:

"Sister Wendy, we are not merchants after all, and bargaining here will only make others laugh! Look at this, I heard that Uncle Francis has sent you thirty masters above the level of swordsman. We are now nervous about the strength in our hands in order to capture that kid from Edlaide, how about you lend me these thirty people? As long as you are willing to lend them to me, I won't ask you for this food, how about it?"

Li Zijun's first reaction was that Luther had discovered his whereabouts, but he immediately overturned this speculation. If Luther knew that he was in Wendy's tribe, he should have sent someone to fence it off a long time ago, and Wendy would not dare to directly resist Boyle and Julie's orders even if he wanted to help him. It seems that Luther must have had some other purpose in doing this, and that purpose was probably to disadvantage Wendy.

Fortunately, although Luther inherited Julie's insidiousness, he was still much worse in terms of cunning, and he lacked a lot of skill in disguise, otherwise he should never show a nervous expression, and he would not have let Li Zijun catch his conspiracy so easily.

Luther wants to transfer all the protective liliang around Wendy, what does he want to do, does he still want to kill Wendy? At this moment, Li Zijun hoped that Wendy would reject Luther. But Luther's offer was so tempting that Wendy really had no way to resist, and she finally agreed to Luther's offer.

Just as Wendy agreed to Luther's conditions, Li Zijun saw a smug smile on the corner of Luther's mouth.

"It seems that Prince Luther still saved some face for the young lady!" Bai Li breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that the grain had finally been left.

"I don't think so!" Li Zijun said coldly as he looked at Luther's back.

"Isn't that good news that the grain has been left behind?"

"But the protection around your young lady has also been reduced! The people of other tribes have returned to their respective tribes one after another, and those warriors of your tribe have not been released yet? Don't you think this matter is a little strange?"

"Maybe they're still helping to find Edlaide's whereabouts, didn't Prince Luther just say that?"

"The blockade and search only need a maximum of 200,000 people, is it necessary for the Turk-Hungarian Empire to keep the 1,000 people of your tribe?and now that food is in short supply, do you think the Tullman tribe will be willing to support those people in your tribe for free?" Bai Li's reaction was still too slow, and she didn't think about Wendy's danger for a while.

Instead of discovering Luther's plot, Wendy felt that she had won a great battle, and invited Luther to the tribe's living room for a while of greetings, and then sent Luther and her thirty guards out of the tribe.

Seeing Lu Deqiang suppressing the joy in his heart, Li Zijun became even more worried. Although he hadn't been in contact with Wendy for a long time, he was still deeply touched by this woman's kindness!

Although Wendy is always rough, she is actually always full of love for the people around her, even Li Zijun, who is often ridiculed by her. Since the day Li Zijun met Wendy, he hadn't seen her eat a serious meal, and always dealt with the dry food around the two casually, but she gave Li Zijun all her jerky.

Li Zijun can now basically conclude that Luther is either trying to deal with Wendy, or to deal with her tribe, and he will never tolerate this happening!

"Master Ed, Miss Wendy is inviting everyone in, why are you standing here alone in a daze?" Lindsay couldn't help but step forward and remind Li Zijun when he saw Li Zijun's trance.

"Mr. Lindsay, have you noticed that something is wrong today! Luther is a prince after all, do you think he would come here because of such a trivial matter?" Li Zijun was worried that his suspicion of Luther would arouse Wendy's suspicions, and he wanted Lindsay to help him complete this.

Hearing Li Zijun say this, Lindsay also frowned. He is different from Bai Li, he has a deep understanding of Li Zijun! This young man has just played the famous general Yur of Monlin and Boyle of the Turk-Hungarian Empire on the border of the Dongyu Empire, and it is difficult for such a person to say these words without attracting his attention.

"Master Ed, what did you find?"

"I don't know, but I just think Luther wants to be bad for Wendy or the whole tribe! As for what it is, I don't have enough information to make a correct judgment. ”

"McGee of the Tullman tribe has been expressing his affection to Wendy for a while, but Wendy has not had the slightest affection for him and has always rejected him. Will Luther's visit this time have anything to do with this matter? ”

"Who is this McGee?" asked Li Zijun for the first time when he heard this person's name.

"Mackie was a small chieftain of a branch of the Tullman tribe, and they had been a staunch supporter of Boyle. McGee has some strength, he is already a high-level swordsman, and there are twenty or thirty masters under him who can speak. He is also considered a powerful faction among the Tullman tribe. He was a full fifteen years older than Wendy, and the purpose of his marriage to Wendy was to annex the tribe and further strengthen himself. Wendy didn't like him in the first place, and with these purposes behind him, Wendy was even more unlikely to marry him. ”

"Looks like it has something to do with it! How far is Macgee's tribe from here?"

"Their tribe is on our east side, about a day or so away from us. ”

"Mr. Lindsay, I'm a little worried about this matter, I want to go to McGee's tribe to see, can you accompany me to go over?" Li Zijun was really a little worried about what happened today, and wanted to inquire about the news, so that he could make a correct judgment on this matter.

Lindsay was also worried about what would happen to the tribe, and nodded and agreed to Li Zijun's request. He said hello to Wendy, and the reason was to take Li Zijun around the tribe, and the two of them each picked a fast horse and set off in the direction of the McGee tribe. Outside of the city for a long time, horseback riding is not a problem for Lindsay, a magician.

Li Zijun was worried that the whereabouts of the two of them would be discovered, so he dismounted about ten miles away from the McGee tribe, put the horses in a hidden place, and walked to the McGee tribe.

By the time they arrived, it was completely dark. Lindsay is a magician, and it is not suitable to sneak in to find out the news, Li Zijun changed into the night clothes that Lindsay prepared for him, and took advantage of the night to blend in with the McGee tribe from a corner.

McGee's tent was easily recognized, the largest and most luxurious of the entire tribe, and Li Zijun soon came to the vicinity of this tent.

At this moment, the camp tent was brightly lit, and the sound of women laughing could be heard from time to time. Judging by this, McGee should be receiving some important person.

The camp tent was surrounded by bright posts and secret sentry posts, and Li Zijun couldn't get close to it without being discovered. Fortunately, during this time, with the improvement of his internal strength, his ear power has also improved greatly, and with enough skill, he can even hear the sound from thirty meters away. Therefore, Li Zijun did not force himself to get closer, but just picked a suitable location, just to eavesdrop on the voices in the tent.

Based on the sound of breathing in McGee's tent, Li Zijun judged that there must be at least five men inside, as well as a dozen women, who should all be waiting by the side of those five men.

These five people were all talking about wine and women in a low voice, but they just didn't talk about serious things, and soon Li Zijun had heard Luther's voice, and he was more sure of his original thoughts. In this somewhat secluded corner, wait patiently for the other party to tell them about their scheme.

Sure enough, about an hour later, Li Zijun suddenly heard the voice of a man in his forties and fifties,

"Prince, what do you see?"

"Let them all go down!" Luther's voice sounded again, and Li Zijun knew that they were finally going to talk about the topic, and immediately lifted his spirits.

A few people came out of the camp one after another, and Li Zijun counted the number of people and concluded that only Luther and McGee were left in the camp.

"McGee, how are you preparing this time?" asked Luther, in a low voice, even though there was no one else in the tent.

"My men can set off at any time, just wait for your order, prince!"

"Don't arrive too early! When my people have almost cleaned up Wendy's strength, you are showing up, and then you can come to save the beauty with a hero! I don't believe that Wendy's stupid woman is not fooled by this. As long as she agrees to marry you, her tribe will be in our hands. Haha, the women of her tribe are good!"

Luther burst into a lewd laugh. Li Zijun felt a little sad, Bilbom was such a haode person, and he would give birth to such a bastard son!

Li Zijun learned about their whole Jihua outside the tent, and until they didn't say anything meaningful, they quietly withdrew from McGee's tribe, and Lindsay immediately rushed back to the Wendy tribe.

"What the hell is going on?" Lindsay said worriedly when she saw Li Zijun's face was very ugly.

Li Zijun didn't hide it at the moment, and told Luther and McGee's Jihua that they were 1510, and Lindsay's face changed greatly when he heard it.

Wendy lent all his right-hand men to Luther, but Luther instructed his men to disguise themselves as horse thieves and attack Wendy, who knew nothing, and then let McGee come to save the United States as a hero!

When the time comes, Wendy has no choice but to agree to McGee's coercive marriage proposal and merge into Tuhlman's tribe. Luther and McGee's intentions were so sinister! No wonder Lindsay was so nervous.

At this time, Li Zijun said that he wanted to haodejihua all the way, and Lindsay made a suggestion to Wendy.

In the face of such an urgent crisis, Lindsay did not dare to delay, and asked to see Wendy early the next morning, and carefully explained Li Zijun's discovery and Jihua Tsai.

Although Wendy is usually rude, this does not mean that she is a stupid person, on the contrary, Wendy can sit firmly in the position of the leader of the tribe, and does not just rely on her mother's shadow, she does have some ability. She just didn't expect that Luther's approach was to calculate her, and she was also made a little quick by food. After hearing Lindsay's analysis, I immediately understood the whole story.

"Mr. Lindsay, did you come up with this?" Wendy suddenly felt a move in her heart after listening to Lindsay's description, and looked at Lindsay and smiled.

"It's me, of course it's me!" Lindsay remembered Li Zijun's reminder and insisted that it was his credit.

Wendy glanced at Lindsay meaningfully, didn't ask anything more, and sent someone down to defend according to Li Zijun's arrangement.

From the next day, several small tribes with difficult lives asked to join the Wendy tribe one after another. Wendy sees them as pitiful and takes them all in.

Li Zijun watched Wendy take in these grassland refugees with sympathy, and he had to admire this woman for being a naturally good actor, even if he hadn't known Wendy's arrangement, I'm afraid he would have been confused by her acting skills.

After a few more days, it suddenly rained heavily on the grassland, and there was not a single light in the sky. The refugees swept away the previous decadence, their eyes flashed brightly, and they secretly gathered and walked towards the front of the tribe.

"It's raining so hard, where are you going?" Bai Li suddenly appeared in front of the group with a smile on her face.

"Up!" someone in the group suddenly shouted, but just as they were about to rush towards Baili, they suddenly noticed that their legs seemed to have been filled with lead, and they couldn't move a single step.

"Mr. Lindsay, I didn't expect you to have such a couple of moments! How the hell did you keep them from moving?" said Bai Li, turning her head to look at a dark corner, with a smile.

"Stinky girl, Mr. dares to laugh casually, don't hurry up and do your own thing!" Wendy's loud voice rang out behind Bai Li.

Hearing Wendy's words, Baili stuck out her tongue at Lindsay and walked towards the tribe gate.

"Don't you just want to open this door, I'll help you!" Bai Li muttered quietly, opening the door as she spoke, and then she used the lantern in her hand to send a secret signal into the distance.

Soon there was the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and at least three hundred horses galloped towards the tribe's gate.

At this moment, the lantern in Bai Li's hand suddenly shook, and Zuihou seemed to be unable to resist the strong wind in the heavy rain and went out. Now only the two small lights on both sides of the gate are already faint to the extreme, still guiding the direction of the cavalry in the distance.

The cavalrymen felt that they had come to the gate and were about to leap in. At this moment, the cavalrymen who were at the forefront suddenly felt a weakness under their feet, and fell directly into the pit in front of the door.

The cavalry behind didn't know what was going on in front of them at all, and they kept advancing, and in just an instant, nearly a hundred knights had disappeared on the ground. By this time, the cavalry had barely managed to hold their horses.

"Bang!", dozens of lanterns suddenly lit up at the gate, and the cavalry suddenly felt a flower in front of them, and at this moment, arrows mixed with the rain met them.
