Five days later, Mobei.

In the early morning, in the Chifengling Hall, there were more than a dozen corpses on the ground, which were none other than Cha Gan and his party who died tragically in the Lingqiu mountain stream.

Chifeng Ridge Lord Yan Wuji's face sank like water, and he didn't say a word. Su He and Long Yu had different expressions, and they didn't know what to say.

At this time, there was also a majestic bald man sitting in the hall, this person was named Hu Zhen, and he was the head of the "Huma Gang", one of the three major sects in northern Saibei.

Hu Zhen left and right, one person each. The burly bearded man is Huo Biao, the "second-gear head" of the Huma Gang. The thin and gloomy middle-aged man is the "third-gear head" Qiu Yan.

Today, the three major stalls of the Huma Gang were invited by Yan Wuji to come here to discuss major matters.

"Let's take a good look at it!"

Yan Wuji stretched out his hand and pointed at the corpses, and said with grief and indignation: "If it weren't for the local government to send someone to send their corpses back, I wouldn't even know...... They've all been in trouble!"

With that, Yan Wuji slammed his fist on the bookcase. At this moment, there was a secret letter on the case, which was written by Luo Tianjin.

Yan Wuji gritted his teeth and said: "In vain, I tried everything to curry favor with Luo Tianjin, but I didn't expect him to be so vicious! If he didn't want to form an alliance with me, he could tell him bluntly, so why should he kill them all? The most hateful thing is that he obviously killed my people, but now he pretends to be innocent, and he actually says it shamelessly in his letter...... He said that he had no idea about this, and pretended to promise me that he would investigate to the end and give us an explanation...... All of them are perfunctory words. The cat cries and hides a knife in his smile, which is really hateful!"

The main reason why Yan Wou-Ki was so sad was because Chagan and Battle died together. These two people are his confidants who have been cultivated single-handedly, loyal to him, and have made countless contributions to the birth and death of Chifengling. Now that he has suddenly suffered bad news, and he has died a pair, how can Yan Wuji not be heartbroken?

Su He hesitated again and again, and persuaded with a sad expression: "Ling Lord, we are certainly sad about the death of Chagan and Battle. But what exactly is going on, everything is still undecided. If you insist that it was the Xianwang Mansion at this time, it would be too arbitrary. ”

Without waiting for Yan Wuji to speak, Long Yu sneered, and said in a strange manner: "Cha Gan and his party, even if they were not killed by Luo Tianjin, they died because of Luo Tianjin. In any case, Luo Tianjin can't get rid of this matter. ”

Yan Wuji's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he nodded: "What Long Yu said is good, no matter who did this, Luo Tianjin can't get rid of it! The Central Plains is his territory, and Cha Gan's trip is a special trip to visit King Xian's Mansion, but now he died on the way without explanation, Luo Tianjing must give me a satisfactory explanation for this matter, otherwise I will never give up." ”

"Then ......," Su He hesitated, "Luo Tianjin, can he make a position in the letter?"

"It's the same as when he reported Wang Xutong's death to the Great Khan. Yan Wuji said ruthlessly, "Full of excuses, no sincerity. Han people like to go around in circles when they speak, talking about the 'golden mean', which seems to be sincere, but in fact it is prevarication, but they don't want to cut off their own back road. Luo Tianjin is the same, sleek and sophisticated, and extremely shameless! In his letter, he talked about him left and right, and said a lot of polite greetings, but he didn't say a word about Zhao'an, obviously unwilling to submit to us. ”

"First kill Wang Xu's unification family, and then kill Chagan and his party. Hu Zhen said coldly, "And they are all done cleanly, leaving no respite for the opponent, it seems that Luo Tianjin really treats us Mongolians as fools." If you don't give him some color this time, I'm afraid that the other sects of the Central Plains Martial Arts will not take us seriously in the future!"

"It's not just us, even if it is the Great Khan of the Mongols, these Han people will not have the slightest sense of awe. Long Yu sneered, "Lord Yanling, you want to fight without blood, and you want to win over the Central Plains Sect for your own use." Although the idea is good, the implementation is not smooth. In the past, there was the Tianshan Jade Dragon Palace, and now there is the Luoyang Xianwang Mansion, all of which ended in failure. During this time, the Great Mongolian State from the imperial court officials to the merchants and herdsmen all acted according to your orders, but what was the result......? In addition to these unruly rabble, how many of the real famous factions are willing to bow down and profess themselves? Now, instead of being able to recruit peace, they have also damaged Wang Xutong, Chagan, and Batel. Wang Xutong's death, the Great Khan has been dissatisfied, if this matter reaches the ears of the Great Khan again, then he is only afraid of the Lord of Yanling...... I can only apologize with death!"

"Dragon Feather. Su He said in a deep voice, "Our three factions in Mobei have now all returned to the Great Khan's tent. I don't think there is anything wrong with the Ling Lord's strategy, if you can win over the Central Plains martial arts to serve the Great Khan, it is better than the loss of life. If we use strong brute force to attack, not to mention that only the three factions of Mobei can have the strength to resist the Central Plains martial arts, even if we can divide them equally, it will inevitably arouse the hatred of the Central Plains. At that time, they will unite and advance and retreat together, and even join forces with the Great Song Dynasty to fight against them, wouldn't it be even more unfavorable to the Great Khan's southward strategy at that time?"

"That makes sense!" Hu Zhen nodded, "The reason why the Great Khan asked us to win over the Central Plains Martial Arts is precisely because of the future direction of the soldiers, so that we can cooperate with the outside and reduce the senseless sacrifices of our Mongolian soldiers." Nowadays, the imperial court is fighting in the east and west, the battle front is very wide, and the soldiers, horses, grain and grass are very lost, and they are very scarce. The Great Khan did not have the strength to move his troops south, so he gave us the opportunity to make a contribution. ”

Facing the harmony between Hu Zhen and Su He, Long Yu snorted coldly, but he no longer argued.

"I thought that after winning over Luo Tianjin, I could borrow his power to unify the Central Plains martial arts and save a lot of trouble. Yan Wuji sighed, "I never expected that this person would be even more treacherous than I thought. In my opinion, Luo Tianjin is a complete hypocrite!"

Su He pondered for a moment and muttered, "Ling Lord, why don't you ...... Shall I take another trip to the Jade Dragon Palace of the Tianshan Mountains?"

"No need. Yan Wuji shook his head rather tiredly and said, "Ren Wuji is cunning and cunning, compared to Luo Tianjin, he is even better." And Ren Wuya is even more greedy and shameless. What's more, as the head of the four great cults of martial arts, the Jade Dragon Palace is notorious in the Central Plains, if we get too close to them, we are afraid that not only will we not be able to borrow their strength, but we will suffer in vain. Before, I was too naïve, I thought I could spread a wide net and bloom everywhere. As everyone knows, these Han people are much more difficult to deal with than I expected. ”

"Otherwise......," Hu Zhen pondered, "Otherwise, we will do what we do?" Cha Gan lied that we intended to win over the Hexi Qin clan in order to persuade Luo Tianjin. Although this is a rhetoric, but at the moment, since Luo Tianjin does not know the current affairs, it is better for us to really win over the Qin family, how about it? Behind the Qin clan in Hexi are the four major families of the Central Plains martial arts, and their relationship with the Xianwang Mansion has always been not very close, and there are even some contradictions. If we can promise Qin Ming a lot of benefits, maybe ......"

"Innocent!" Before Hu Zhen could finish speaking, Long Yu shook his head and sneered, "Luo Tianjin is unwilling to befriend us, do you know why? He is afraid that he will be infamous as a 'traitorous traitor' through the ages." The Xian Wangfu does not want to be a traitor, does the Qin clan in Hexi want to? These Han people sometimes sell their masters for glory for a penny, and do all kinds of evil. But sometimes they will regard such nonsensical things as honor and morality as more important than life, and they will not change them for a mountain of gold and silver. I advise you, if you are not completely sure, it is best not to risk going to the Qin clan in the west of the Anhe River. ”

"Why?" Hu Zhenhu wondered.

"Because it is very likely that the mistakes of the past will be repeated, the people who go to recruit An Qinming will end up following in the footsteps of Chagan and Battle. Long Yu smiled contemptuously.

"On top of that, there's an even bigger obstacle. Yan Wuji said quietly, and then in the curious eyes of everyone, his eyelids twitched slightly, and then he said word by word, "Golden Sword Dock!"

"That's right!"

Hu Zhen patted his head and nodded again and again: "Jin Jianwu has a great friendship with the Qin clan in Hexi, and Jin Fuyu, the 'master of Jin Jianwu', is said to be a descendant of the royal family of the Jin Kingdom. In those years, the Mongols and Song Dynasty joined forces to destroy the Jin, slaughtered countless Jin people, and almost wiped out the entire Jurchen clan, so Jin Fuyu would definitely regard the Mongols as enemies who did not share the same heaven, and how could they form an alliance with us? Yes, yes, yes! If it weren't for the timely reminder of Lord Yan Ling, I would have almost forgotten this verse. ”

After that, Hu Zhen patted his head again and again, and shouted: "Trouble! Trouble! It's really troublesome! This doesn't work, that doesn't work! Otherwise...... Let's go to war? First destroy the Xianwang Mansion and make an example of it, so that those Han people can know that we are powerful. Then one by one, they will persuade them to surrender, and those who do not obey will be killed! I don't believe that with the scimitars in our hands, we can't deal with those weak Han people, what do you think?"

As soon as these words came out, Yan Wuji and Su He's faces changed at the same time. But Long Yu clapped his hands again and again, nodded and said, "This plan is very good, I agree! What you get back with good words is far less reliable than a sword strike!"

"I don't agree!" Yan Wuji said in a deep voice, "As soon as the battle starts, both sides will definitely kill each other." At that time, we and all the major sects in the Central Plains will be dragged into the quagmire and swamp, and the troubles will be endless, and unless we can kill each other, we will never be at peace with each other. What's more, if Su He's worries are really answered, wouldn't the Central Plains Martial Arts join forces with the Great Song Dynasty to create even greater trouble for the Great Khan? Not only can we not help the Great Khan share his worries, but on the contrary, we will indirectly help the Great Song Dynasty to help?

"What about killing them all?" Long Yu stretched out his scarlet tongue and licked his chapped lips.

"If you kill them all, who will join forces with the Great Khan's soldiers and horses in the future?" Yan Wuji said in a deep voice, "Wouldn't this be bloodshed in vain and in vain?"

Long Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with a smile: "Lord Yanling, the death of Cha Gan and the others, you haven't figured out how to explain to the Great Khan, how dare you make a conclusion now?"

"Presumptuous!" Yan Wuji said angrily, "Unless the Great Khan deposes me, the three factions of Mobei will still be in charge of me, Yan Wuji!

Hearing this, a piercing cold light suddenly flashed in Long Yu's eyes.

Seeing this, when Su He made a move to shift his shape, he instantly protected Yan Wuji sideways. He stared at Long Yu without squinting, and as long as Long Yu made the slightest move, he could strike back in the blink of an eye.

Long Yu carried a short sword and walked towards Su He as if he were strolling leisurely. The dumb kun standing behind him brutally slammed the table and chair in front of him, holding two giant axes, and followed closely behind.

"Long Yu, don't be rude to the Ling Lord!" Su He said bluntly with a fearless face.

"I've wanted to fight you for a long time. Long Yu showed an evil smile nonchalantly, his eyes were staring at Su He with longing, and he said with a sneer, "When you went down to the Twenty-four Cities of Mobei, I was on the westward expedition with the army, and I didn't meet you, it's a pity!"

As he spoke, Long Yu had already walked in front of Su He. The two stood opposite each other, less than a foot away.

Seeing this, Hu Zhen, Huo Biao, and Qiu Yan on the side couldn't help but glance at each other, and there seemed to be a hint of schadenfreude in their eyes.

"What are you doing?"

Yan Wuji saw that the situation was not good, and suddenly shouted. Quickly stepped forward and scolded angrily: "Do you still have me, the mountain master, in your eyes?"

Hearing this, Su He and Long Yu were in good spirits at the same time, took a deep look at each other, and then took two steps back.

Seeing this, Hu Zhen couldn't help frowning and asked, "Lord Yanling, what are your plans next?" Is it a strong attack or a recruitment?"

Under everyone's attention, Yan Wuji frowned and thought for a long time.

When Hu Zhen wanted to ask questions again, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he turned to look at the corpses on the ground, and said meaningfully: "It is not possible to attack by force, nor can it be persuaded to surrender, no matter which way it goes, they will eventually be forced to a front and fight to the death against us." So we have to find a way to stop asking for them, but let them come and ask us. ”

"What's the way?" Long Yu asked curiously, and then hurriedly added, "No matter what the method, this time the matter will definitely be left to me." Su He and Cha Gan are both from Chifengling, but they have both returned. In terms of seniority, it is also the turn of our Twenty-Four Cities and the Huma Gang to make contributions to the Great Khan. ”

"That's good!" Hu Zhen hurriedly echoed.

Yan Wuji glanced at Long Yu deeply, and then said with a smile: "I have long heard how well you performed in the Western Expeditionary Army, but some things are always heard of by ear. Today, I'm going to give you a chance, but I want to see how many catties you have in your dragon feathers?"

"Listen up. Long Yu chuckled lightly and asked rhetorically, "What about Lord Yanling's method, but don't be as weak as before." ”

"The enemy of the enemy is the friend, and the opponent of the enemy is the ally. Yan Wuji said with a sneer, "If you want to subdue the Central Plains factions, you must first disintegrate their hearts." The so-called muddy waters are good for fishing, and I want to make the Central Plains chaotic! I want to borrow a knife to kill people!"

Hu Zhen was confused when he heard this, and asked puzzledly: "What about ...... Still fighting?"

"Fight!" Yan Wuji said, "but it's not for us to fight, but for them to ...... Fight with your own people!"

......
