To the north of Youzhou was a cold and bitter land.
This was the territory of the Wuhuan people, which stretched for thousands of miles, and it intersected with the territory of the Xianbei people.
The two clans received the battle report from the front line immediately. The 200,000 soldiers who had invaded Youzhou had all been destroyed, and their corpses were even built into the capital. Within the Wuhuan royal court, the Khagan on his throne was enraged.
In their eyes, this was originally a very simple looting operation.
They only needed to bring back the treasures and women of the Han people, but they had lost an entire 200,000 soldiers.
One had to know,
Among the Outsiders, they had few soldiers and could not compare to the vast territory of the Great Han Dynasty. Now, the loss of 200,000 soldiers still made them feel pain even if the two families joined forces.
And most importantly,
The Xianbei and Wuhuan had lost so many men.
He didn't get any benefits at all. He only killed some Han people.
"Bastard, trash! All of you are trash."
"A whole army of 200,000. Even if it's 200,000 pigs, they shouldn't all be captured, right?”
Bang!
The Khagan of the Wuhuan Royal Court slammed his palm on the table in a fit of rage. The wine cup rolled to the ground and shattered into pieces. Not only that, but he also pulled out the scimitar he carried with him and stabbed the leading Han woman to death.
Blood dripped down the tip of the blade.
At this moment,
In the Imperial Court, no one dared to make a sound. Everyone was as silent as cicadas in winter.
"Qin Mu, I am irreconcilable with you.”
"How dare you build a capital with the warriors of our Wuhuan Tribe? I want the corpses of thousands of miles away from Youzhou, not even a blade of grass will grow. Men, gather the Tiger Army, Leopard Army, and Eagle Army. Follow me to pacify Youzhou. I want revenge for my Wuhuan Erlang. I want Youzhou to be covered in blood.”
"To comfort the souls of my hundred thousand Wuhuan sons in heaven.”
The Wuhuan Khagan's eyes were filled with killing intent.
The veins on his forehead bulged as he gripped the hilt of his sword tightly. His entire body emitted a murderous aura.
"Khagan, wait." At this moment, a hunchbacked old man walked in from outside the hall. The latter held an eagle-headed scepter and his gaze was extremely deep."All of you can leave!"
"Get down."
The Khagan waved his hand, signaling for everyone in the hall to leave.
Then, he said," Wise man, you are the high priest of our tribe. You said to calm me down, but those who died at the border were the 100,000 good men of our Wuhuan! Could it be that this matter was over? Those hateful two-legged sheep even built the city with the corpses of our warriors. If we don't go south this time, I'm afraid we'll disappoint countless Wuhuan warriors…"
"Your Majesty, revenge must be taken, but you must not go on a personal expedition. "Our clan has just suffered such a huge disaster. Those tribes that have submitted to us will definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble. If you lead the army and leave, I'm afraid that no one in the clan will be able to suppress them. At that time, we will lose a lot because of a small loss.”The Wuhuan High Priest said.
Old people are smart, old ghosts are smart.
He had to say,
This wise man's considerations were quite comprehensive. For foreign races like the Xianbei and Wuhuan, their power was formed by one tribe after another. The weaker tribes would submit to the stronger tribes. In the past, this Wuhuan Khagan, Qiu Liju's tribe, was the strongest.
But now, 100,000 Wuhuan Erlang had died.
Qiu Liju's reputation in the clan had been greatly reduced. Then, it was very likely that it would cause internal strife.
"Not personally? However, Qiu Lihuan and Qiu Lishan had already died in Youzhou.”
"Who else in my Wuhuan camp can be of great use?”
The Wuhuan Khagan said rather helplessly. Two of his own Great Generals had already died in battle. Otherwise, why would he need to personally send troops?
"There is still one person in my clan who can be of great use.”
"Who is it?"
"Wugril, although this person is young, he has already displayed the power of a tiger and a wolf. He has been very brave and good at fighting in the few battles when our tribe suppressed the tribe. "Most importantly, he's a member of our tribe. Therefore, even if he holds military power, there's no need to be afraid.”After the High Priest finished speaking, he stared at Qiuli Khagan.
"But can he win? Even a veteran like Qiu Lihuan had died in battle! If I fail again, I'm afraid…"
"Don't worry, Khan. The Xianbei royal court has just sent a messenger. As long as we are willing to send troops, they will also send their great general, Tuoba Xiong, with 150,000 troops to assist us in conquering Youzhou City.”
After Qiu Liju heard this, he could not help but nod.
He still knew about Ta Ba Xiong's reputation.
Adding on the 150,000 Xianbei soldiers and 150,000 Wuhuan soldiers, they had sent out all their elites.
Even if they went south, it was not impossible for them to fight for the Central Plains.
Besides,
How about pacifying a small Youzhou?
"Alright, in that case, we'll do as you say. He ordered Wugril to lead the Tiger Army, Leopard Army, and Eagle Army to Youzhou Prefecture and completely wipe out Youzhou.”Khagan Qiuli Ju angrily said.
At this moment, he wished he could destroy the entire Serenity Plains with his own hands.
However, the situation in the tribe forced him.
"Yes, my king."
As he spoke, the High Priest walked out.
……
In the government office of Youzhou City.
Ever since he had wiped out the disaster of the foreign races, Qin Mu had led the army to guard this place.
On the hall master's seat, Qin Mu was checking the military map.
At this moment,
A voice sounded in his mind.<
"1. Lead the army out of Youzhou and turn this place into a living hell.”
"2. Report to the Han Dynasty Hall and wait for reinforcements.”
"3. Counterattack the Xianbei and Wuhuan tribes. From now on, the other tribes will be pacified and there will be no more wars at the border.”
As the system's voice fell, an interface floated out of the void.
He looked at the notification on it.
Qin Mu's gaze focused slightly, and he immediately chose the third option. After all, the first option was obviously impossible. He could watch the entire Youzhou Province being slaughtered without doing anything. As for the second reason, the Great Han Dynasty was already in a mess. Therefore, even if they reported it, there would be no response. At most, Gongsun Zan would return to support them.
However, as the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers.
Now Youzhou has no master,
He didn't want to give up the territory he had painstakingly defended. Therefore, he could only choose the third option.
That was to slaughter the alien races.
If they took the initiative to invade and set the battlefield in the enemy camp, then they would have fewer worries.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for making the selection. The rewards are as follows.”
