2320 Wind (8)
The Murphy scout, who galloped back to the Heavenly Wolf Mansion, shouted the slogan of the victory on the front line, rode his horse through the peripheral bazaar, and the caravans who were trading in the bazaar looked sideways, and soon the news came out that the imperial warrior Murphy Boone repelled the eighty thousand wolf army of the Eastern Court in a battle on the border, and the entire Heavenly Wolf Mansion was boiling, and the most fanatical thing was that the grassland tribes that previously belonged to the Eastern Garden, especially after their respective eyeliner on the grassland was transmitted back to confirm, the unrestrained character and enthusiasm of the grassland people almost ignited the entire Heavenly Wolf Mansion, and the Dongting Lei Army was withdrawn for two hundred miles this time, and Ma Tie was about to run away, and he didn't stop until he dared to pull together, how to see it, there will be no more covetousness for the Heavenly Wolf Mansion!
The leaders of the steppe tribes couldn't stop laughing, holding up the fragrant mare's milk wine, humming the tune passed down from their ancestors, and singing, "Thank you to the Immortal Heaven, thank you to the Falcon Majesty Xià for sending such a brave general as Lord Murphy Obon, so that these hungry wolves can be farther away from the flock!"
The young people gathered together and talked excitedly about the most important spring festival of the year: "Who says it is not, in 19 days it will be the spring festival, and this time, we will be able to hunt at will without paying taxes to anyone!" The drunken steppe people sang and danced outside the Sky Wolf Mansion, the roaring bonfire illuminated this snow-white wilderness like starlight, the grassland tribe moved the tent to the edge of the market, the hot wine was allowed to be drunk by the soldiers and merchants of the Murphy Army, and the grassland woman with a few pieces of plateau red on her face also broke the custom of leaving the camp tent in winter, wearing colorful and colorful clothes, like a flock of larks shuttling between the tents, and the sound of giggling and laughing made this cold winter night before spring also have a little more warmth
"Wumu, being a traitor is like this, always afraid of being liquidated by the people sent by the family, not to mention that you know better than me how cruel and bloody it is for the grassland people to liquidate" A bonfire. A fat man in Imperial armor mingled inside. Seeing a young and lovely prairie girl smiling like a bird running to the campfire tent in the distance, she drank the mare's milk in her hand to dispel the chill of the overnight journey, tilted her head, and said to a strong man with the appearance of a stout steppe man beside her, "Although the empire defeated Dongting, as long as Dongting's army is still nearby, these grassland tribes will not think it is safe, and the fear of Dongting's rule has long been deeply implanted in their minds, which cannot be eliminated in just half a year."
"What His Majesty said is that this time Murphy Oone went all out to attack the Dongting Lei Army, and the strength was only 20,000. On the other side, the Dongting Lei Army is as many as 80,000, even within the Dongting, it is also a force with outstanding combat power" Wu Mu is a grassland person, in such a warm grassland atmosphere, his natural nature is revealed, and he didn't think much about it, and the corners of his mouth sneered
"The expectations of the various clans for Murphy Oone can be regarded as a gift of immortal heaven protection if it is not a fiasco, and there will be thought that the Lei army was actually repelled by the First World War for more than two hundred miles, and the Dongting army retreated two hundred miles. I can no longer threaten the safety of the Heavenly Wolf Mansion at any time, there is no news, and these grassland people feel more at ease than this, and I have been here with Her Royal Highness the Princess for a long time. Naturally, I also know the worries of these tribes, and it is no wonder that these people are happy to be like this all of a sudden, they have been suppressed for too long."
The vulture's voice paused, and his gaze swept over the surrounding scene. "The significance of Murphy Oone's repulsion of the Thunder Army is like removing the sword that has always hung over their heads, although the empire is strong enough. Half a year ago, he beheaded one of the eight armies of Dongting, Zamuhebi, but the worries that followed have never dissipated, the people on the grassland, how can they not know how strong the revenge of the Dongting people is, now the Dongting can't pull out, and when they pull out, it must be a bloody purge, since they learned that the Dongting on the opposite side sent the famous Lei Jun, these people's eyes are afraid that they will not be able to close safely for a day"
"Hehe, do you mean that, Wood, can you answer me a question?"
The fat man put down the mare's milk wine in his mouth, wiped the traces on the side of his mouth with his hand, his eyes flashed a hint of shudder, and he looked at a grassland woman in colorful clothes in the distance, and said, " Murphy Oone is so bold that he takes the initiative to attack the Dongting Lei Army, even if he has been deposited in the wilderness for so many years, it is not easy to have a chance to show his face, and if he doesn't show his head, I have to think that he Murphy Oone has lost his true character as a fierce general, and he will fight it, and he didn't lose anyway, but your princess is so anxious to take 50,000 cavalry out of Yue Valley in one breath, I was stunned for a few seconds when I received the report, what did she want to do? If you want to fight the Thunder Army, you have already fought, and when you see Murphy Oone sending troops, this kind of cheap approach is too petty!"
"This ......" Wu Mugang replied with an embarrassed face that turned crimson after pouring a large sip of mare's milk wine. The princess's approach is indeed too petty, but this is also a helpless thing, to fight the Thunder Army must pass through the Heavenly Wolf Mansion, the previous attack on the tribe that made Her Royal Highness the Princess rush back in a hurry, after investigation, it was done by the Lei Army patrol on the opposite side, Her Royal Highness the Princess was ready to fight, but was stopped by Murphy Boone, saying that the empire was not ready for a full-scale war with the East Court, and starting a war without authorization would only make the empire fall into passivity, and as a last resort, the princess was outside the Bingyue Valley, who would have thought that as soon as she turned her head, Murphy Boone would go to fight the Thunder Army by herself”
"Actually, Her Royal Highness the princess is also in trouble...... Wu Mu's voice stopped, he glanced at the fat man with a strange look, and didn't continue,
"The battle of Fei Shan has lost face, and I want to get it back in front of Lei Jun, who knows that it was still blocked, now it's okay, if it's not fast, the prestige will never be able to recover, it should be like this" The corners of the fat man's mouth smiled coldly, this woman is a little too strong, knowing that if she reports to herself, she will never be allowed to take the initiative to attack the Lei Army in the East Garden, just following Murphy Oone's attack, first cut and then play, nominally afraid that Murphy Oone will lose the battlefield, and lead the army to reinforcements, and now Murphy Oone's battle report has been transmitted back to the Heavenly Wolf Mansion, but there is no news of the 50,000 grassland cavalry, the ghost knows where the reinforcements have gone, and only one vultures are left in Yue Valley, and he knows that he will not say anything at a glance。
"Wood, if I'm not mistaken, you've been here most of the time since the Empire's northern expedition last year, how reliable do you think you can be with these steppe people?" the fat man stood up and patted the dirt off his body. Hearing this, Wu Mu's calm face changed, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he was even drunk for most of his time, if it was an ordinary person who mentioned the word reliable, he would casually say why is it unreliable? But standing in front of him is the Falcon Emperor, that is another matter, his own words may determine the life and death of these tens of thousands of grassland people, although these grassland people are not from their own grassland. But after all, they are also common ancestors, and the customs and habits are basically the same, in this case, Wu Mu felt that his tongue was a little numb,
He is a fierce general on the battlefield, and he has always believed that killing and being killed are arranged by fate, but let himself decide the life and death of these tens of thousands of people, he really doesn't know how to say. I had already vaguely heard Her Royal Highness Princess Rui Tang Tingna mention that when Her Majesty Falcon agreed to accept these tribes, she had privately told the eldest princess that the empire must absolutely control this wilderness, if there were dissidents in these tribes. Resolutely eradicate it, which is different from accepting the annexation of the East and West Tribunals, because the East and West Tribunals are Ikadivars, and these people are not. Especially between the war between the Empire and the Eastern Court, there is no room for swaying wall grass,
Fence-sitter. Everywhere you go, that's the definition of these tribes?
Wu Mu felt that his back was cold, and the grass on the wall in the eyes of His Majesty the Falcon, he was afraid that none of them would be able to end well, so he hesitated for a moment, and his expression was extremely serious. I think that the loyalty of these steppe people, His Majesty has already seen it, if it is not for the sincere submission to the empire, why should they be so happy after hearing the defeat of the Lei army, and the empire has always been relatively loose in the rule of the steppe people, as long as it is not a blatant opposition to the empire, even if it is a small friction between the tribes, there are not too many constraints, but every three days before the first three days of the month ask the various ministries to gather, nominally, please order, in fact, it is also a mutually beneficial opening day, cattle, sheep and horses, real money, grain and weapons, as long as the tribes are willing to exchange and buy things, they can be sold on the market, The empire will never interfere with these, this is much better than the harsh rule of the people in the East Court over there, on the side of the East Court, each area of the East Court has a thousand knife tents dedicated to management, the tribe must report when entering the area, and pay tribute according to the size of the tribe, in times of war, the ministries also need to provide soldiers to the thousand knife tent where they are, weapons and horses are provided by themselves, and there is no compensation for the death of the war, the empire is quite good in this regard, willing to send young and strong tribes can often get some preferential treatment from the empire, and the soldiers who died in battle also have a lot of compensation......”
"Since you Umu said so, then you are going to protect them?"
The fat man waved his hand, interrupting Wu Mu to continue, his black pupils were deep and cold, and he snorted in a deep voice, "As far as I know, these tribes are not completely cut off from that side, otherwise, why Murphy Oone launched so suddenly, is because he knows that as long as he reveals a little bit of wanting to take the initiative, the Lei army on the opposite side may have already arranged his pockets and waited for him, and it was because he said that he was going to suppress the horse bandits, so he was caught off guard on the other side."
The fat man's voice paused, and he gestured behind him, and an imperial guard brought a roster book to him, and the fat man took the roster book and said with a sneer. This is the roster of the heads of these tribes, I am lazy, it takes a lot of time to investigate this kind of thing, not to mention that the big war is imminent, I was going to catch all of them and kill them in one go, and then scatter the tribes into the wilderness provinces, but I have changed my mind now, if someone wants to be a good person, then you must have the consciousness of being a good person, this is for you, those can stay, those who can't stay, it depends on your Wumu's meaning, from tonight, they are your people! , Murphy Oone showed his face this time, he will definitely not be willing to stay in the Sky Wolf Mansion anymore, you stay and be in charge of the Sky Wolf Mansion!"
"Your Majesty, what are you?' The whole person of the Woods froze, and His Majesty Ying hinted several times that he wanted to be independent from the eldest princess but was rejected by himself, and this time, can he still refuse? Not to mention the life and death of these tens of thousands of grassland people, it's just that the Heavenly Wolf Mansion has now been promoted by the empire to the province of the Heavenly Wolf Mansion, the transportation artery of the Northwest Wilderness, the place where heavy troops are stationed, and the core of half of the Northwest Wilderness, the power of the person in charge can be imagined, this bargaining chip is too heavy, "What? Or do you think my sincerity is not enough? Wu Mu, you are a smart person, you should know the trade-offs!" The fat man twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, sighed, and threw the roster on the ground like a stack of waste paper, and said to himself, "Forget it, when the army arrives in two days, all things will be wiped out, anyway, it is not the first time that the Heavenly Wolf Mansion has been invaded by human blood" "No, please don't misunderstand, Your Majesty's order, Wu Mu is willing to obey it!" Wu Mu looked solemn, knelt heavily on the snow, picked up the ledger that was thrown on the ground and held it on his head,
The only remaining general of the Dongting Dynasty, finally chose to compromise, the current Dongting departments are not what they used to be, even the prestige of the Wumu is constantly provoked by the new leaders of the tribe, as the general of the unified army, but there is no own tribe, land, cattle and sheep, not to mention his own army, it is a very embarrassing thing in itself, especially after the news that His Majesty of the Falcon appreciates himself very much the year before last, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess did not say anything, but began to alienate herself intentionally or unintentionally, and finally sent himself outside this long wall after the second expedition to Obarro, although he did not say it explicitly, but the meaning of his exile was already very obvious, Since Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has already chosen, what's the use of persevering on her own, not to mention the chips offered by Her Majesty the Falcon, it is indeed enough to show sincerity, the tribe here, there are seventy or eighty thousand people, the Heavenly Wolf Mansion has complete facilities, and the geographical advantages are obvious, such conditions, if you still refuse, do you still want to plot more? This is the falcon majesty who has killed millions, under the anger, without the protection of the eldest princess, he will really die without even a bubble. "Okay, get up, that's all I talked about tonight" The fat man laughed, and pulled the vultures up with both hands, "Take out the masculinity of your prairie men, but I can see that many women's eyes are looking at you, even the one who poured me wine just now, they are all staring at you with their eyes, people are more angry than people, such a beautiful night, so many prairie beauties, what are you talking about these disappointing words! If you don't hook one or two back into the tent, you don't plant a vulture!" (To be continued......)
