Wuheng, at the foot of Bailang Mountain, Wuheng Shanyu Wangting.
"Well? You are saying that the King of Qi asked us, Dawuheng, to send troops southward? As long as we repel the Chu State, he will give up the land of Bingzhou to us Wuheng people?"
Qiu Liju, who was sitting on the throne, was obviously old, but the light in his eyes was still breathtaking.
It was not that the Wuheng people had no information about the war that broke out in Hebei. After all, it was too close to them.
But what the people of Wu Heng didn't expect was that in just a few years, the Qi State, which had millions of troops, was so beaten that it asked Wu Heng for help? It even went so far as to cede territory?
This is enough to prove how powerful its opponent Chu is.
As the leader of Wuheng, Qiu Liju naturally has to consider the future of the Wuheng people.
Although the cake of Bingzhou was very tempting, Qiu Liju did not dare to eat it in one bite when faced with the Chu State whose strength was unknown.
"I already know the purpose of the envoy's coming, and I would like to ask the envoy to return first. This matter is of great importance, and I need to discuss it with the generals of the clan before making a decision."
Qiu Liju said this, and Yuan Shang's envoy understood.
This obviously means that there is no intention to send troops.
But no matter what, if someone hasn’t rejected you directly yet, you can’t just hold on, right?
Yuan Shang's envoy was not a great talent. Faced with Qiu Liju, who still had the power of a tiger, he could only retreat in anger.
"Instruct all ministries to guard their pastures. No orders are given and no one is allowed to go south without permission!"
After the envoy left, Qiu Liju quickly gave orders to the leaders of his subordinates.
Qiu Liju had already made up his mind not to participate in the war in Hebei in the south.
You know, Hebei is known to have millions of soldiers.
Just like this, they were all beaten by the Chu State and asked for help. What is the total population of Wu Heng?
Even if everyone can be a soldier and everyone can go into battle, it will only be more than 300,000. If we join the war rashly, will we not add nutrients to the land of Hebei?
However, the old Qiu Liju did not realize that under him, several royal nobles headed by Tadun were very dissatisfied with his decision.
At night, we camped in Tadu.
"Brothers! The Great Chanyu is old and his courage has been lost. Tadun believes that he is no longer worthy of being the co-leader of our Dawuheng tribe!
Now I, Tadun, plan to replace the great Chanyu and take command of all my Wuheng tribes, and then send my troops south to help the King of Qi repel the Chu army and capture Bingzhou!"
As Qiu Liju's adopted son, Tadun was naturally qualified to replace him.
Moreover, among the nomads, it is not uncommon for fathers and sons to kill each other for the position of Chanyu, so the leaders of Wuheng tribes were not surprised by Tadun's words.
"Tandun! Our Shanggu department agrees with you replacing Da Shan.
However, the envoy from Qi is looking for Shanyu, can you contact him?"
Obviously, the leaders of Wuheng tribes were jealous of Yuan Shang's promise of merging the state.
The current problem is that the Qi envoys have been driven away by Qiu Liju, how can they still contact them?
Regarding Tadun's desire to rise to the top, Shanggu Wang Nanlou was supportive.
After all, the upper valley is close to Bingzhou. As long as the Bingzhou Racecourse can be obtained, the upper valley will definitely benefit the most.
"Please rest assured, King Shanggu, I did not let the envoy leave at all. Now he is still in our military camp. As long as he replaces the Great Chanyu, we can respond to King Qi and send troops to Hebei at any time!
Brothers, please rest assured, after I obtain Bingzhou, I swear to the Wolf God that I will definitely distribute it fairly to each tribe for their reproduction!"
With support from Shanggu Wang Nanlou, Tadun became more confident.
This is the most powerful branch among Wu Heng's three kings.
By making promises to the other two kings of the Wuheng tribe, Tadun finally gained the full support of the nobles of the Wuheng royal court.
While the power struggle was going on within Wuheng, Xu You's envoy also came to Yecheng at night and night.
When the envoy saw that the Chu State's Great Banner was actually planted on Yecheng, he immediately admired his master's ingenuity and ingenuity.
Master, you are truly a god! You actually guessed that King Chu was in Yecheng!
Yes, after much deliberation, Xu You finally believed that Xiang Yu had the greatest possibility of attacking Yecheng.
After all, after defeating Lu Bu, as long as Ye City is captured, the Chu army's road to Yanzhou will be completely opened, which will be much more convenient for transporting soldiers and food and supplies.
"What are you talking about? Yuan Shang has already sent people to ask Wu Heng to send troops? He even promised to use the entire Bingzhou as a price?
Humph, this Yuan Shang is really generous!"
When Xiang Ji saw the envoy, he didn't expect to hear such breaking news.
This Yuan Shang is really evil-minded.
Xiang Ji hated this kind of betrayal of his nation and territory to drive foreigners into the country the most.
You know, if that foreign race really enters the country, will they just listen to you and fight for you obediently?
Just kidding, this Wuheng army is attacking all the way. How much farmland will it trample along the way? How many villages will it be destroyed? How many people will be destroyed because of their plunder?
People who are not from my race have different minds!
This sentence is common to both ancient and modern times.
In Xiang Ji's view, civil war is all about fighting over who is the boss.
But a foreign war is a war between entire nations.
In civil war, compromise can be accepted and surrender can be accepted.
However, Xiang Ji's attitude towards these foreigners has always been one word: kill!
If a man comes, I will kill one, if a hundred men come, I will kill a hundred, if if ten thousand men come, I will kill 10,000! Until the foreign race that I killed no longer dares to invade my Central Plains, until the blood of the foreign race that I killed is shed.
The river became a river, and the sound of mourning filled the land.
Only in this way can we demonstrate the great power of our descendants of Yan and Huang.
Obviously, Xiang Ji's attitude towards foreigners is exactly the same as that of the First Emperor, so there is only one word: kill!
"Very good! Mr. Xu has made great achievements this time. Go back and report to your master. Tell him that I will give you a heavy reward, the lonely king!"
Originally, Xiang Ji planned to trick Xu You directly into him and kill him.
But regarding today's matter, Xiang Ji really accepted Xu You's affection.
No matter what the purpose was, letting Xiang Yu know Wu Heng's movements in advance would be like a life-saving straw for the entire Chu army and even the entire land of Hebei.
In this regard, Xiang Ji had to express his opinion.
When I see Xu You later, if he is sensible, he will not be unable to use that title.
"Send the order! Summon all the generals to come to the main hall quickly!"
After Xu You's envoy left, Xiang Ji immediately gave orders to his subordinates.
I thought I would be able to return to Pengcheng soon.
But now it seems that it may be delayed for a long time...
Looking to the north, Xiang Ji knew that a war between races was about to come.
