No one knew what the three of them had discussed in secret, but when Wen Huan set off the next day, he looked very confident.
All the previous worries have disappeared, and there are only two words in my heart: I am stable!
On the contrary, Chang Shan and others became worried, "Your Majesty, are we going back with such a big fanfare? Now the third prince of Hulin still has tens of thousands of soldiers. If he refuses to obey the prince's last edict and brazenly sends out troops to meet him, how should we deal with it?
"
I just want to ask, young prince, what are your plans?
"Isn't Third Brother Hu Lin like this?" Wen Huan said, "I don't believe that he would openly defy the late king's order! In that case, wouldn't it be tantamount to rebellion?"
"My subordinates understand that I am ordering the entire army to be prepared to suppress the rebellion. If anyone dares to rebel, no matter who they are, they will be killed without mercy!" Chang Shan agreed loudly and let out a sigh of relief in his heart.
"Well, if we continue to fight against each other and lead to chaos, how can I, the king, not want brothers to fight against each other and kill each other? For the sake of the survival of the Xinghe tribe, I have no choice but to bear this reputation. Alas..." Wen Huan sighed and gradually revealed his face.
Edge.
He knew that he had to calm the hearts of Chang Shan and others at this moment. If he didn't make his words clear, they would be hesitant, which would miss important things!
But Chang Shan and others still have concerns, "The hearts of my subordinates who support the prince are as strong as stone, and they will not hesitate to break their bones for him! It's just that our twenty thousand soldiers and horses are very tiring on the journey back and forth. Is it possible for the subordinates to be together on the road?"
How about taking a two-day break to recharge and then go back?"
"No, we must rush back as soon as possible, otherwise we are afraid that something will happen if we are too late..." Before Wen Huan could finish his words, a scout came to report that General Chen Zicheng, the Northern Guardsman, had come to ask for a meeting!
"Invite me quickly." A smile appeared on Wen Huan's lips, and he said in his heart that Leader Wanyan really kept his promise, and I can't deceive him if he is sincere!
After a while, Chen Zicheng, wearing armor, strode over, gave a military salute to Wen Huan, and said loudly, "General Chen Zicheng, led by the eight thousand cavalry of the Northern Border Guard, came to obey orders! I am wearing armor, so I won't kneel down!"
"Hahaha, General Chen is too polite!" Wen Huan dismounted from his horse and held his hands slightly, "Then it's okay to bother General and lead his troops five miles away from our left wing?"
"I will obey your orders!" Chen Zicheng agreed loudly, turned around and left.
Chang Shan and others were all overjoyed. Oops, it turns out that leader Wanyan actually sent troops directly to help. He also sent 8,000 people. Wow, wow, how interesting!
Now that our strength has been greatly enhanced, we are enough to compete with the tens of thousands of people in Hulin!
After traveling for dozens of miles, another general suddenly came to see him. This general was familiar to everyone because the scars on his face were so iconic...
It is none other than Wanyan Pingqiu’s powerful general Wumuhe!
"The last general will lead the Northern Guards with five thousand light cavalry. We have been waiting here for the prince for a long time. We obey the prince's orders!" Wumuhe is also here to help. Damn, Wanyan leader is not only interesting, he is too special!
He is really outstanding when it comes to things!
"Please ask General Wumuhe to lead his troops to cover our right wing!" Wen Huan seemed to have expected this. Although he was happy, he was not as overjoyed as his generals.
When Kankan entered the territory of the Xianhe tribe, a young and handsome monk came to ask for an audience... Monk?
"The last general, Huitong, paid homage to Prince Wen Huan. Following the orders of General Tanhua, he led three thousand heavy cavalry from the Niutoushan headquarters to escort the old prince Buhe's coffin back home!" The person who came was none other than Huitong.
"General Huitong, excuse me. We are old acquaintances. The last time I went to Niutoushan to visit Tanhua, he gave me five measures of wine. When I was too drunk, it was General Huitong who helped me drink two measures.
This friendship is engraved in my heart! Today I have brought General Trouble here again, so how can I be so responsible?"
Wen Huan dismounted and hugged Huitong passionately, patting him and making him very affectionate.
Chang Shan and others looked at each other dumbfounded, looking at each other in silence, one out of joy and the other out of fear.
Needless to say, I like it. With the 5,000 brave heavy cavalry from Niutoushan, plus the two elite troops from Wumuhe and Chen Zicheng, not to mention Hu Lin's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, it is almost enough to defeat Xinghe!
So you can go there without any worries.
What was scary was that it turned out that Li Tanhua and Wanyan Pingqiu had already prepared for the war and had deployed two armies here in advance. However, they were still unaware in Xuanming City that if Bu He did not die, the young prince Wen Huan would
If you don’t come...will you think about it and become extremely scared?
Seven days later, Wen Huan lived up to his promise and came to Xuanming City to meet Li Tanhua, Wanyan Ping, Qiu Baili Qingyun, and assumed the identity of King Xian in the name of friends.
The reason why he dared to come was because he had completely controlled the situation of the tribe. He killed Kulin and several princes and generals loyal to him with thunderous means, abolished the princely titles of the other four brothers, and sent them away respectively.
Go to Mojie, Xianbo, Helan, and Changshan Prefectures to "exercise self-examination". Without his king's orders, you are not allowed to take a step forward!
He also influenced several uncles Wang and Sixth Brother Andashan with flesh-and-blood affection. Not only did they entrust them with important responsibilities, but they also granted titles and lands to their descendants, big and small. All of them were iron-hatted titles, which were hereditary and not subject to replacement.
When the new king came to the throne, he was rewarded for his merits. Naturally, Chang Shan was the first meritorious official. Wen Huan also treated him with great respect. He was awarded the title of top prince, countless gold, silver, cattle and sheep, and hundreds of mansions.
Food enriches thousands of households!
However, on the grounds that he had become ill from overwork, old injuries had recurred, and he was no longer suitable to lead the army, he removed his military power, but appointed his son Chang Gui as a general.
He exempted all tribesmen from three years of tax and corvee service, liberated nearly 100,000 slaves from the previous fiefdoms of his brothers, distributed them to grasslands, gave them cattle and sheep, and gave them back their status as free people.
After such a combination of kindness and power, everyone from the palace to the common people was convinced. Even if there were a few people with dissident intentions, they could only obey obediently. No one dared to do anything to anyone.
The boy's method is indeed extremely clever, which shows that both Li Tanhua and Wanyan Pingqiu did not misjudge the person.
Of course, without the help of these two people, he would not have been able to ascend the throne smoothly.
He brought a large amount of gold and silver treasures, horses, cattle and sheep as gifts to two people respectively, which was a full expression of sincerity.
In addition, Wu Khan was sent to lead a thousand soldiers and horses to join the Northern Border Guard, officially joining the Northern Alliance on behalf of the Jinghe tribe.
Of course, he still has one most important thing to do here, which is to go to Changshan Prefecture to meet Xiao Chen. With his extreme intelligence, he naturally knows who is the real boss in the north...
Li Tanhua said that our boss has received an urgent report from eight hundred miles away. He also really wants to meet you, but he also said that you don't have to rush to see him, young prince. It's not too late to arrange the tribe's affairs first before going.
Don't get me wrong, young prince. My boss doesn't mean to stop you from going, but for the prince's sake. If the prince thinks it's feasible now, then my boss will be waiting for you at any time.
But don’t say that I, Li Tanhua, am not a good friend. There is something I must tell the young prince first. Our boss’s drinking capacity is unfathomable. You must never fight with him for drinks...
