The soldiers and horses of the two tribes swept across the land like a strong wind and soon reached the foot of the hillside.

There are three to four hundred people from the Helou tribe, and there are more than two hundred people from the Dabo Sun tribe. They are all fast horses with scimitars. After reaching the hillside, the cavalry immediately separated, except for those gathered under the stairs leading to the Xianling Platform.

There were hundreds of people, and there were also cavalry surrounding them on all sides.

The Xianling Platform used for sacrifices was immediately surrounded by water.

The Helou clan is a large clan of the Hegu tribe. Although Dabo is not as powerful as the Helou clan, it is still quite powerful.

The leaders on the funeral platform were all horrified.

He Guhan's face was ashen at this moment, and he obviously did not expect such a situation.

Ke Dun glanced at He Guhan coldly, but she was already weak at the moment, and her legs were weak. Seeing her delicate body swaying slightly, Qin Xiao knew that she was trying her best to support him, and felt compassion in his heart, so he supported Ke Dun and sat beside the altar.

Down.

The great shaman had already taken a water bag and handed it to Ke Dun.

Ke Dun was of the same race as her, and knowing that she cared, he nodded slightly to express his gratitude.

"I really didn't expect that He Loutai would actually rebel." Ke Dun took a sip of water and said with a wry smile: "He is over fifty and has a great reputation all his life. Why would he lose his reputation in his later years?"

Qin Xiao glanced at the lost He Guhan, and said softly: "You are infected with the disease, and everyone knows that you are not going to die soon. The Khan is young and has no aura of a king. He Gu's tribes have their own thoughts, too.

Of course."

"He Loutai is indeed very brave and has a high prestige among the tribe." Ke Dun said: "Maybe he feels that he has been loyal to me in the past few years and I also have great trust in him. After my death, he will definitely be greatly affected.

Khan's hostility, so he took desperate risks and set up a conspiracy to seize the Khan's throne."

Qin Xiao heard that she was still looking for reasons for He Loutai's rebellion, and sighed in his heart, knowing that Ke Dun was obviously unable to accept He Loutai's rebellion.

He knew that the grassland tribes were different from the Central Plains dynasty.

The Central Plains dynasties paid great attention to legal system, and officials who usurped the throne were often criticized verbally and writtenly, but this did not work on the grasslands.

The strong are respected on the grassland. Even if He Lotai really usurps the throne of Khan, he will not be despised by everyone like the Central Plains Dynasty. As long as he can lead the He Gu tribes to become stronger, he will still be respected by all.

Ministry of awe.

Therefore, mutinies on the grasslands are commonplace.

He Guxian Khan passed away, and it can be said that Ke Dun was still able to check and balance the various tribes in such a difficult situation, which can be said to be very remarkable.

This not only requires extremely high prestige, but also extremely clever political skills, which can allow various departments to check and balance each other, so that no one dares to act rashly.

"Ketun, what should we do?" In the panic, someone finally thought of Ketun and came over one after another.

Everyone knows that He Lotai is extremely brave and unruly. Among the tribe, the only one who can really subdue He Lotai is Ke Dun.

Xieringtai is currently under siege, and it is impossible to send reinforcements in a short period of time. As long as He Loutai gives an order, and the soldiers come to kill them, it is impossible for everyone to deal with it with their bare hands. But Dun saw everyone looking panicked, and sneered in his heart.

Said: "You don't have to worry too much. Most of the Tutun clan chiefs of the He Gu tribe are here. No matter how stupid He Loutai is, he can't kill you all. If he kills you all here, the tribes will regard him as

If he is an enemy, he, the Helou family, can no longer stay in Hegu, let alone want to be Hegu's khan."

As soon as Ke Dun said these words, everyone immediately woke up.

Of course, the purpose of Helotai's rebellion was not to kill all the leaders of the tribes. If he really dared to do this, the Helotai family would soon become a public enemy of the Helotai tribes, and would eventually end up being exterminated.

Everyone realized at this time that He Loutai's real targets could only be Luotian Kedun and He Guhan.

So some people quietly stepped back, trying to put as much distance between themselves and Luotian Kedun and He Guhan as possible.

Everyone knows that since He Loutai carefully planned and led the troops to kill, judging from the current situation, the overall situation is decided.

No matter how smart Ke Dun is, there is no possibility of turning the situation around in the face of absolute strength.

???????????????As for He Guhan, in the eyes of everyone, he is just a laughingstock.

If you get too close to these two people at this time, you may be involved.

In just a moment, most of the people had already stood far away, and only a handful of people remained with Ke Dun.

Ke Dun seemed to have been in this situation for a long time. He just looked at Qin Xiao and said softly: "You are from Tang Dynasty and have no grudge against He Loutai. He will not make things difficult for you. His target is me, so you don't have to get involved."

." He looked up at the sky and said softly: "I am infected with an illness and my time is limited. If I can see you before I die, I will die without regrets."

Qin Xiao simply sat next to her and said: "Mangtu told me that after being infected by this plague, you will cough at first, then your body will feel hot and weak, and after a few days, you will have erythema all over your body.

After it spreads on the body, symptoms of difficulty breathing will appear. I have also seen many infected people on the way, and their symptoms are similar to what Mangtu said, but everyone's physique is different, and the time will be different."

Looking at Ke Dun's side face, he said: "Logically speaking, you should have reached the stage of difficulty breathing by now, but I see that there are no red spots on your face, and although you are tired and weak, you don't feel short of breath.

"

Ke Dun nodded slightly, but he had no intention of discussing this at this time, and said: "Take them down first. They only need to surrender to He Loutai, and He Loutai will not hurt them. You are He Gu's great hero,

Moreover, He Gu’s business with the Tang Dynasty still needs your help. Even if He Loutai becomes the Great Khan, he still needs to maintain trade with the Tang Dynasty. He should treat you as an honored guest."

"That's fine." Qin Xiao nodded and said, "It's really inconvenient for me to get involved in the internal affairs of your tribe." He stood up and said, "As of now, I can't help you much, so please take care of yourself."

Ke Dun nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Thank you for coming!"

Qin Xiao just smiled and then said to the leaders: "He Loutai just wants to become the Great Khan and will not kill you. Those who are willing to surrender to He Loutai come with me and make it clear to He Loutai that there will be no death.

It's very dangerous. If anyone is willing to accompany Ke Dun, you can stay here."

He Gu Khan glanced at Ke Dun and said to Qin Xiao: "Xiang Hihu, I... I can not be the Khan. He Loutai wants to be the Khan, I... I can give it to him,

As long as he doesn't kill me, that's fine."

"So you want to leave Ke Dun and live alone?"

"I...!" He Guhan's face turned red and he was extremely embarrassed.

Qin Xiao sighed: "Do you think that even if you surrender to He Loutai and give up your position as a Khan, will he spare you? You still can't even understand this. You are indeed not qualified to be a Khan!"

He didn't say much, didn't even look at Ke Dun, pulled up the gray cloth to cover his face, and then walked down the mountain.

Ke Dun looked at Qin Xiao's back, moved his right hand, and opened his lips slightly, but in the end he didn't say anything.

When the others saw this, some followed immediately, while others glanced at Ke Dun sympathetically, but still followed. Originally, there were more than 200 people at the Schering Tower. In an instant, a large number of people followed Qin Xiao down the mountain. In the end, except for

Of the great shaman and his retinue of shamans, only seven or eight people remained.

Ke Dun glanced at the others and said: "You don't have to stay, go down the mountain to survive."

Several people shook their heads, and one person said: "Kedun has always treated us with great kindness. If we abandon Kedun now, we will be worse than livestock. If He Lotai wants to kill Kedun, he must step over our corpses first."

Everyone else nodded when they heard this.

"I didn't expect that Hito Muka was also afraid of Helotai." One person said with a bitter smile: "Isn't he a great hero? How could he abandon Keton in order to survive?"

"He is not from He Gu, but from Tang Dynasty, and he has no enmity with He Loutai, so he will not wait to die." Someone on the side said: "Although Muko Hito is brave, how can he deal with so many warriors by himself?"

Someone spat and cursed: "What warriors? They are all rebels, shameless rebels!"

But Dun had slowly stood up, walked to the stone steps, and looked down from a high position.

Hundreds of cavalry below blocked the exit in a fan shape. Although it was densely packed with people, Ke Dun could still vaguely see He Loutai in the crowd.

"Are we...are we really going to die here?" He Guhan's voice came from behind, his voice trembling: "Mom, I...I don't want to die!"

Ke Dun did not look back and said calmly: "Although your father Khan is not a wise master, he at least has courage. If he were here today, he would never be so boneless." He shook his head and sighed: "Maybe it is really my fault.

I have protected you so well that you have lost your courage and blood. If you don’t want to be laughed at, you should go down, tear off your clothes, expose your chest, and let your enemy pierce your heart with a knife.

This will at least let the tribesmen know that their khan does not lack courage!"

A gust of cold wind blew, and Mingluo floated under Ke Dun's colorful crown, revealing her pretty face as charming as a fox. This pretty face that was charming but not demonic was now cold and stern, and her brows were full of perseverance.
