"Well, then what are you looking for me?" Ye Chen brought the topic back and looked at Xuanyuan Huan.

At this time, after Xuanyuan Huan received Ye Chen's promise to guarantee her immortality, his mood relaxed a lot, and he sat down opposite him and said, "Master, I am worried about this so-called secret passage to Sealed Wolf City. ”

"Oh, what did you think of?" Xuanyuan Huan said cautiously: "I doubt that the people in the Sealed Wolf City will seal the entrance to the secret passage, otherwise wouldn't it be easy for us to abandon the Acropolis and flee into the Sealed Wolf City?"

"You don't have to doubt that the passage is not closed. Ye Chen's words made Xuanyuan Huan's face relax slightly, but then he said: "Because there was no so-called secret passage from the beginning. ”

"What! this ......" Xuanyuan Huan was shocked.

Ye Chen looked at her lightly: "Do you really think that the Sealed Wolf City, which is the throat of the northwest, was built casually?

Xuanyuan Huan looked at Ye Chen in amazement. "There is no secret passage, and it cannot exist. Because the entire Wolf Sealing City was built on a huge underground rock formation that was incomparably solid. Unless there are hundreds of martial artists in the Xia Realm who personally excavate, it is impossible to dig out the so-called tunnels. And the Acropolis beneath our feet

Instead, the underground here is just an ordinary formation. There is indeed a tunnel underneath this, but it doesn't lead anywhere, it just stops when it reaches the underground rock formation of Sealed Wolf City. And didn't move on. ”

"This, this, how could Li Yingtian keep such a big secret? Isn't there any one who has gone through the tunnel by himself to confirm it?"

"Yes, definitely. Ye Chen's tone was extremely flat: "Just the people who walked by can't be caught by Li Yingtian, who is the city lord?

Xuanyuan Huan was silent. If it had been after she had just gotten the news, she might have even collapsed. But after Ye Chen ensured her and Yao Xiaodie's safety, this matter was not so important.

"Wait, wait for the Wutu people to come, and then I'll go out of the Acropolis to get some equipment from the Wutu soldiers. Of course, the sentient beings that you and Yao Xiaodie have cultivated during this time will also come in handy......"

.........

"What's going on over there in Sealed Wolf City?"

A sturdy man, more than two meters tall, sat in a large and ornate tent.

This huge tent can hardly be called a tent, and it would be more appropriate to say that it is more like a palace that can move.

Inside the big tent, more than a dozen powerful warriors with terrifying breaths were guarded by the triple of Taxia, and a warrior wearing leather armor was kneeling respectfully in front of the giant man.

"Back to the Great Khan, as you guessed, the Udobaha Shengwen of the Mountain Warrior Clan did not send a single soldier to support Feng Wolf City. It seems that Shengwen really wants to destroy the Sealed Wolf City with our hands. ”

And the person who was listening to his report was the current ruler of the Utu tribe, the Khan of the Utu tribe who had once again unified the entire steppe after a thousand years, and was regent.

The strong man, who was more than two meters tall, looked like a middle-aged man, his hair had been shaved and only a few pieces of hair were tied into a few braids. His face was extremely strong, with a strange bulge on his forehead, as if he had a third eye.

He is known as the three-eyed god of the grassland, the Great Khan of the Wutu tribe.

And the scout who reported to him called Udobaha Shengwen is now the Macro Emperor of the Mountain Clan. Udobaha is the surname of their Shanmeng royal family, and the holy text is the first name.

Unlike the Wutu people, who only have names but no surnames, the Shanmeng people have absorbed many traditions and habits of the Hualong Kingdom, and have also asked their people to take surnames more than a hundred years ago.

As for the name of Shengwen, it is obviously the name of Hualong Kingdom. Chongshan listened to it and smiled: "Holy text, holy text." This old guy used to be called Lombata. Now that he is the emperor of the Hualong Kingdom, he also learns from those weak Hualong people and gives him a bullshit name for the holy text. Hmph, in this world, only the strongest and supreme force is worthwhile

How can such a commendable mere literature be worthy of this holy word? It is really ridiculous. ”

"Ridiculous, really ridiculous. ”

As soon as Chongshan said this, the other Wutu nobles in the big tent immediately echoed and laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Chongshan suddenly turned his face darkened, his eyes rolled strangely, and he looked around at the people around him.

There was silence all at once! No one dared to smile or make any noise. It seemed that he was very satisfied with the coercion he had caused, and Chongshan's face was gentle but disdainful, and he said: "Naturally, I can make fun of that old fellow of Shengwen, but you? Are you worthy? Are you the ones who stand on the same position as him? He is my opponent, and you will give it to me."

Remember, I am the only one in the world, and I can laugh at him, and humiliate him! As for the others, it will not work. ”

"Yes!"

Dozens of leaders and nobles of various tribes of the Wutu tribe immediately bowed down to show their understanding.

Their great khan, the majesty is really better than day by day. If you say it, it is an iron law on the prairie, who dares to be disobedient?

Naturally, Chongshan was also very pleased with his majesty.

The Wutu tribe is different from the current Shanmeng tribe and the former Hualong Kingdom. It is not strictly centralized.

Of course, this is also related to their living environment.

In the prairie, where people live in pursuit of water and grass and have almost no fixed cities, the system of centralization will not be achieved at all, and it will not be able to develop.

The only way to do this is to use the current system of having leaders elected by each tribe and being managed relatively loosely.

The Great Khan was only nominal, but in practice his control over the tribes was very limited. This is also the habit and rule of the savannah for thousands of years.

And this rule was broken by Chongshan, a powerful and iron-fisted Khan. He began to move closer to the centralized system of Hualong and Shanmeng. However, in this way, there is a huge conflict with the geographical environment and living habits of the prairie. His current prestige is still rising, and he can barely suppress it, but once his prestige is lost, or the people of the prairie cannot tolerate this kind of unification that is not suitable for the prairie

When he governs the way, that is, when he values goodness and wants to plant a big fight.

Chongshan himself understands this truth. It is precisely because of this that he decided to attack the Mountain Warrior Clan who are now entrenched in Hualong.

If he is not ready to enter the Central Plains, then the system and authority he has established now may collapse in an instant.

He can only fight, whether he is willing or not, in fact, Chongshan, the seemingly incomparably beautiful Great Khan, is also a helpless move.

But Chongshan is not an ordinary incompetent and short-sighted person after all, he sees through the weakness of the current Shanmeng clan and the inability to control the homeland of Hualong.

So Chongshan started the idea of dividing the world with the Mountain Warrior Clan. It was up to him to take action from the Wutu tribe and eat the land of Hualong that the Shanmeng clan could not control......

In this way, it not only relieved the worries of the mountain warriors that they could not control the place, but also completely stabilized the steppe people and the centralized system he had created.

It can be said that he did this, which is almost a good move for Wutu Mountain Meng.

And Chongshan believes that the old guy of Shengwen can see and understand this. As long as he was careful enough not to completely trample on and touch the core area controlled by the Mountain Warrior Clan, then the two clans would not completely tear their faces and fight.

After all, doing so can only cheapen the Hualong people, give them the opportunity to restore the country, and even gain absolute hegemony in the east of this continent as they have done for thousands of years in the past.

That must be something that Shanmeng and Wutu and even the distant Huamo country don't want to see.

If he could really accomplish his plan as Chongshan thought, then he would also pursue the same policy of weakening the Hualong people as Udobaha Shengwen did, not allowing them to practice any martial arts.

The Hualong people, who cannot be completely controlled by the Shanmeng clan, are also controlled in the palm of their hands, and this nation is completely defeated and defeated! It will not take too long, only need to control the time for hundreds of years in this way, and then buy some Hualong scum to sing praises for them, slander the past glory of Hualong, and make the Hualong people completely believe that they themselves are inferior! A garbage nation that should be ruled and controlled! In this way, this number can be kept forever

The big, intelligent and intelligent people are in control, and they have no regrets about making cattle and horses for their Shanmeng and Wutu tribes!

As for Shanmeng and Wutu, the two of them will have to see who can play better at that time.

When the Hualong people have completely settled down, then the powerful one of these two clans will definitely lay a dead hand on the other in order to seek complete domination over the entire Hualong people.

And that's not something that Chongshan needs to care about. It was a matter of whether his children and grandchildren were competitive, and whether the successor of the holy text was qualified. That is the legend and story of posterity, and he values goodness, and he only needs to write his current pen well.

As for now, Chongshan believes that the Great Emperor Udobaha Shengwen will definitely understand his intentions and will not send a large army to oppose him.

Indeed, although Shengwen did not have any communication with Chongshan, he understood his thoughts, and just used the pressure exerted by Chongshan to rectify the interior. External pressure is always the best catalyst for internal unity. Look, if you Hualong people make trouble for me at this time, then you may end up in the hands of the even more brutal Wutu people. Think about it, is it better to rule the Mountain Warrior Clan, who have ruled for more than a hundred years, or those who will act as people

The Utu people of military rations are better?

Of course, whether it is Chongshan or Shengwen, they seem to have missed a key player in this, that is, Hualong people.

Perhaps they did not miss it, but they had completely disdained this nation, and did not think that the leaderless Hualong people could reunite against their two foreign races and make them pay the price for the blood debt they had owed for more than a hundred years......

But they were wrong, and now, in the acropolis of the Sealed Wolf City, which was pointed at by the front of the army, there was a person who was thinking about how to use this opportunity to develop and strengthen his own strength.

"That's the way it is. Ye Chen stretched out his hand on the ground and pointed and explained: "As I just said, the Shanmeng clan and the Wutu tribe should actually have a certain tacit understanding about this Wutu invasion. ”

And Xuanyuan Huan, who was sitting opposite him, was already stunned when he listened. She looked at Ye Chen in a daze.

She felt that she was really too stupid, and she thought that the Shanmeng clan would give her and countless Hualong people a chance because of this battle with the Wutu tribe, which eventually led to the defeat of both sides.

But now it seems that this opportunity ...... Is it really shattered?

Could it be that the Hualong people, who have flourished for thousands of years, are destined to be slaves to others in the years to come? Ruled and oppressed? Looking at Xuanyuan Huan's dejected appearance, Ye Chen shrugged his shoulders: "You don't have to hate the Shanmeng clan and the Wutu clan, in fact, you Hualong country still have to blame yourself for getting to today's field." It was you who played a huge old and powerful country into that push-and-doom

Even if there is no Shanmeng Clan, there will be some other race taking advantage of the situation, and of course, it may be another family of your Hualong people to rule in place of your Xuanyuan family. ”

"How is this the same!" Xuanyuan Huan roared emotionally: "I'd rather be another Hualong family to rule Hualong instead of us! In that case, Hualong will still be Hualong! Even if my Xuanyuan family is weakened and declined, it is better than being a slave to the country together now!"

"Really?" Ye Chen looked at Xuanyuan Huan lightly: "I'm afraid that at that time, you will grit your teeth and hate the family that robbed you of the supreme position of the Xuanyuan family, saying that they are chaotic ministers and thieves, and everyone will be punished." Right?"

"This ......" Xuanyuan Huan was speechless, Ye Chen was right. She would indeed think like that, and she would not even be weaker than the current hatred of the Shanmeng and Wutu tribes.

"It's just that Hualong at that time would definitely not be as weak as it is now. Ye Chen concluded: "In short, that's the way it is, do you have any thoughts after seeing this development and the truth?"

"What else can I think. Xuanyuan Huan sat on the ground dejectedly: "It's over, my Hualong Kingdom has no chance to recover." With the two great mountains of Shanmeng and Wutu coming up, all of our Hualong people will be forbidden to cultivate martial arts, and at that time, even if there are many people, what is the use!" "Otherwise, no. Ye Chen shook his head: "A few people rule the majority, and contradictions are always numerous. If you want to resolve this contradiction, in fact, suppression is not the smartest thing to do, but it is very stupid. In fact, there is only one thing that the Macro Emperor should really do. If he really does

If you do it, then you Xuanyuan Huan really don't have any chance today. ”

"What?" "Assimilation. Ye Chen stretched out a finger: "It's not about assimilating Hualong, but about assimilating the people of the Shanmeng clan into the Hualong people, changing their customs and language, and even changing their surnames, so that they can finally become the same as the Hualong people." In this way, there will be no such thing as a minority ruling over the majority, and a large number of people will be suppressed and excluded. The Hualong Kingdom can also develop its national strength with peace of mind, and even if the rule of the Shanmeng Clan is overthrown in the future, the people of the Shanmeng Clan have already merged into the Hualong people, no matter how difficult it is to distinguish between them, how can there be a disaster of extermination?"

"Master, you're talking badly this time. Xuanyuan Huan shook his head with a wry smile: "Whether they are from the Shanmeng clan or the Wutu clan, the one they look down on the most is my Hualong people who have a prosperous literary style." They believe that it is this flourishing literature and relatively liberal society that makes Hualong weak to the point of falling down with a push. ”

"Oh?" Ye Chen raised his eyebrows: "What about you?" do you think so too?"

"Maybe it has something to do with it. Xuanyuan Huan sighed: "My Hualong is always like this, every four or five hundred years, there are many heroes, martial arts and bravery. But as long as this period of time passes, the strong enemy will be defeated, and it will fall into a situation where Wen Tian is martial and the people are comfortable. At that time, all the lively things came out. ”
