Yue Fei, who was summoned by Wang Teng, was currently leading 500 soldiers to guard the front yard of the Liu Family. He was confronting the 5,000 private soldiers of the Liu Family. Both sides had already fought several times, but they were helpless against each other, which was why they were in a stalemate.
Both sides were waiting for a turn of events. Yue Fei was waiting for reinforcements from the scattered passes, and the Liu Family was also waiting for reinforcements from the other families.
In the hall of the Liu residence.
Family Head Liu Xiong was sitting in the main seat of the hall, listening attentively to his son Liu Ziye's report. All the core members of the Liu Family and the other four families were present.
The Liu family's overall strength had expanded several times over the years. Logically speaking, there was no need to risk the destruction of the family to carry out a rebellion. However, the aristocratic families did not have money and could not have power.
As long as Liu Xiong thought about how Wang Li had taken away the power of the family from him, he was extremely unwilling. Therefore, he vowed to take back the power that originally belonged to the Liu family.
Although they might be cursed if they joined the Huns, as long as the plan succeeded, who would know that it was the Liu family? Once he succeeded, Liu tribe would once again become the uncrowned king. Liu Xiong couldn't resist this temptation.
However, Liu Xiong did not expect his foolproof plan to fail in the end. Even his son, Liu Hui, died in San Guan, and the culprit was Wang Teng.
The death of his son, coupled with the hatred for his family, made Liu Xiong hate Wang Li and his son even more. He wished he could eat their flesh and drink their blood.
After the matter was exposed, Liu Xiong could only drag the Liu Family into the dark. Otherwise, when Wang Li returned to the army, the Liu Family would definitely be exterminated. Therefore, he decided to strike first.
Originally, Liu Xiong had only wanted to lead his troops to attack from the rear and attack from both sides. After breaking through the pass, he wanted to lead the Great Huns into disbandment. However, his son Liu Ziye's words completely dispelled his thoughts.
Since there was a chance to split up, why should he rely on the Outsiders and bear the infamy? If we can really defeat them, then our Liu family will rule the world and we might be able to advance further in this chaotic world.
Liu Ziye's description of all kinds of beautiful things gradually awakened the ambition in Liu Xiong's heart. The temptation of dukes was not something that ordinary people could resist, and Liu Xiong was no exception.
Liu Ziye's plan was an open one. Even if the San Pass defenders and the Great Huns knew it was a trap, they had no choice but to jump in. However, the risk was just as great.
The Liu Family wanted to survive between the San Pass garrison and the Great Xiongnu. They wanted to be the third party to benefit from the fight between the snipe and the clam. However, it was not easy to be the third party, because doing so would offend both sides. If this balance was not maintained well, neither the San Pass garrison nor the Great Xiongnu would let the Liu Family off.
Would Wang Teng, who knew Liu Ziye's intentions, let Liu Ziye have his way?
The answer was, of course not!
Looking at the information in his hand, Liu Ziye frowned and said uneasily,""Father, although we have used the name of the Heavenly Saints Association to expand our strength, that woman Dugu Xian is also using us. Now, she has more than a thousand people in her hands. If this continues, I'm afraid she will become a big tail that we can't shake off.”
Hearing this, Liu Xiong thought for a moment and laughed. He said disdainfully,"Ye 'er, you're worrying too much. No matter how powerful Dugu Xian is, she's just a woman. Although she has more than a thousand men under her command, we also have five thousand men under our command, which is five times her number. Moreover, the weapons and provisions of her thousand troops are all provided by my Liu Family. Food is her lifeline. Dugu Xian's lifeline is in our hands. How can she overturn the world?”
"This woman is Li Qiqi's adopted daughter. He is not someone the Liu family can afford to offend, so we can't touch her for the time being. She is still useful now. When she is no longer useful, we can 'send' her away. At that time, won't her soldiers still belong to the Liu family?”Liu Xiong said arrogantly as if everything was under his control.
Although Liu Ziye felt that something was wrong, he had nothing to refute. His father's words were indeed correct on the surface, but Liu Ziye felt that his father had thought of everything too simply. His intuition told him that Dugu Xian was definitely not that simple.
"I hope so." Liu Ziye sighed and then said worriedly,""Father, Yue Fei has led 500 soldiers to block the front yard of the Liu Family. It's like trapping us in a jar. It's fine for a short time, but I'm afraid that if it drags on, we'll really become turtles in a jar.”
Liu Xiong rubbed his head and said helplessly,""Then what should we do? Our Liu Clan's multiple attacks have been neutralized by Yue Fei. This person's ability to set up formations is too powerful, we can't defeat him in a short time.”
If Liu tribe wanted to split up, they had to defeat Yue Fei and take the initiative. Then, they would use the name of Heavenly Saints Association to gain the support of the people of San Pass. They would use this as a lure to expand their army and increase their strength.
A soldier rushed forward and reported,""Patriarch, Wang Li's son, Wang Teng, has led over a thousand troops to reinforce Yue Fei.”
Liu Xiong immediately stood up, his eyes filled with hatred. He sneered and said,"Wang Teng? I didn't go to find trouble with him, but this kid came to my doorstep of his own accord. He has more than a thousand soldiers. Hehe, Hui 'er, I will definitely chop off Wang Teng's head today to avenge you.”
