"Uncle, help the Jiazong tribe return to the main tribe. This is another purpose of mine! Let's gather the strength in the Wumeng Mountain area first, and when we have enough strength, we can lead the tribe back to the main tribe!"
"The so-called branch lineage or not is just a matter of strength. As long as we are strong enough, we will naturally become the main clan!"
Without waiting for Murong Zhong to speak, Murong Cangbai said, "Brother Shen, this time you support the Jia Zong tribe to increase its strength and even return to the main clan. What is your purpose?"
Shen Tang smiled and said, "Uncle, you don't know. Not long ago, the Dali Kingdom sent 20,000 troops to attack the Song Dynasty's land of Ziqi! If a large-scale war was launched, the damage to the Song Dynasty would be too great, so when the Jiazong tribe returned to the main After the clan, I need the Jiazong tribe to become a deterrent force, at least to make Dali feel a little afraid!"
"The Jiazong tribe is in Shanchan Mansion, and Shanchan Mansion has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from Dali Kingdom. As long as I can make these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from Dali Kingdom dare not move lightly, my goal will be achieved."
"Besides, after integrating the tribes in Wumeng Mountain, I will return to assist the Xuhen Department in unifying the Wudeng Department.
In this way, it can put pressure on Dali from multiple locations and force them to retreat.
If necessary, I will even take action against Luo's Ghost Country! Therefore, I dare not deceive my uncle, Jiazong tribe is one of my goals, and it is the main plan!"
"Of course, if my uncle and two uncles are not willing, I will not force it, and I will also help the tribe grow.
After all, this matter will cause friction with Dali State, and there will be considerable risks!"
Murong Cangbai closed his eyes and thought for a long time, and then suddenly said, "I will make the decision on this matter. All the power of the tribe will be at Brother Shen's disposal. All plans will be carried out according to Brother Shen's words."
After that, he turned to look at Murong Zhong and the other two, "Brother Shen is one of our own. No matter what, we can't hold him back! Moreover, the risk is indeed there, but this is also our Jiazong It’s an opportunity for our tribe! It’s simply impossible to return to the main tribe on our own! But if Brother Shen’s plan succeeds, our strength will be greatly increased, and we can also lead our tribe back to the main tribe!”
"You two are Mu Yu's uncles, so from now on, you will obey Brother Shen's instructions! Gather all our strength as soon as possible! Moreover, this time with Brother Shen in charge, we can speed up the annexation of Ma The power of the Hu tribe! Even if the Ma Hu tribe has some ideas, they don’t dare to resist. Once our goal is achieved, it will be meaningless whether they resist or not."
"Okay! I'll gather all the men as soon as possible. Second brother, you go and prepare food, grass and ordnance.
You can take people to the Mahu tribe first. They still have many elite tribesmen who have been recruited directly. They have left the tribe's grain, rice and other supplies for a few months, and they will transport whatever they can! Shen Brother, we are going to have continuous battles, which will consume a lot of money in all aspects, so naturally the more preparations we have, the better!"
Looking at Murong Zhong and the other two, Shen Tang smiled and nodded, "In this case, it will be a big help to the two uncles!"
Murong Zhong waved his hand, "Needless to say, we are our own family, who else can we help if we don't help you?
What's more, what happened this time has been of great benefit to us, and helping you is also helping the tribe."
The soldiers and horses of the Xuhen Department arrived faster than Shen Tang imagined. After only waiting for two days, Shen Tumo personally led the army to the area where the Jiazong Department was located! Moreover, for this time During the expedition, Shentu Mou brought a total of 20,000 tribesmen, not to mention the entire elite, which could be considered as the use of most of the force.
Although the Xuhen tribe is powerful, tens of thousands of people were directly destroyed by Shen Tang, which greatly damaged the tribe's strength. Now, it is no longer easy to gather 20,000 troops.
In the room, Shen Tumou respectfully said to Shen Tang, "General, this time the Barbarian Lord personally ordered that all the men gather together, and a total of 20,000 troops have arrived! Everyone will obey the orders of the General. !”
"Okay! Great Elder Shentu, your Xuhen Department will never regret your choice this time!"
Shen Tang said solemnly.
"The army will recuperate for a day first, and then go directly to the Mahu tribe! The Mahu tribe is already within our grasp. We must gather their strength first, and then we can start."
"This time, we will conduct an expedition in the name of the Jiazong Tribe! Including you, the people of the Xuhen Tribe, will temporarily belong to the Jiazong Tribe! Although you have close ties with the tribes in the Wumeng Mountain area, they have The Xuhen Department and the Wudeng Department are still rejecting.
At least, our specific identities cannot be revealed until we gain the upper hand."
"Uncle, you are the commander-in-chief of the army on the surface. I, Shiying, and Elder Shentu will all hide in the dark!"
"As for the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty, there is no need to worry! The frontal confrontation will be dominated by the forces of the Xuhen, Jiazong, and Mahu tribes. Once Shiying's troops appear, we must be absolutely sure. .”
"This..." Murong Zhong scratched his head, "General Shen... Although I have some brute force, I am not familiar with leading an army in battle. Is it because you are the commander yourself, so as not to delay your important matter? "
If it were an ordinary battle, Murong Zhong would naturally not be afraid. However, this time several forces gathered together, at least 40,000 to 50,000 soldiers and horses. When had he ever experienced such a large-scale conquest?
"Don't worry, uncle! As long as you are on the surface, I will personally order all plans and troop dispatches! This time is of great importance, not only related to the safety of the Song Dynasty, but also related to the fate of several of your tribes. Therefore, we can only win but not lose! In all matters, you only need to follow my orders!"
"Okay, now I feel relieved!"
Murong Zhong grinned!
"Elder Shentu, I have asked General Shiying to prepare some ordnance and add it directly to your army! Later, you will go to hand over to General Shiying! In addition, we are here this time. They didn’t bring heavy equipment, but they did bring a lot of craftsmen! Allocate two to three thousand men and horses to cooperate with General Jian Cheng!”
"Uncle, we need to build some large-scale equipment, which requires a lot of wood! The clan will provide these!"
Murong Zhong nodded immediately, "No problem, our place is no better than your Song Dynasty. There is a lot of wood on the barren mountains. Later I will lead the men of the clan to cut it down and transport it to the army! There will be no delay."
