Soon, Zhuertu was respectfully invited to the main tent of the camp by Tumaihan's guards.
As soon as he entered the main tent, Zhuertu was keenly aware that several eyes fell on him, but he didn't pay attention to it. Then, he saw him turn his eyes to Tumaihan who was sitting at the top.
Although Zhaertu despised Tumaihan, he still had to salute him due to his status.
"I've seen Dahan!"
Tumaihan, who was sitting at the top, seemed to be very happy about Zhuertu's arrival. After getting up from his seat, he came to Zhuertu's side, lifted him up from the ground, and patted him on the shoulder. Introduced to the others.
"It seems that Ben Khan was right. You, Zhaertu, are truly worthy of the title of Battle!"
"Tell me this Khan, how did you lead three thousand cavalry to defeat those Ming troops?"
After Tumaihan finished speaking, his eyes looking at Zhuertu became more scrutinizing.
Although Zhuertu had roughly anticipated the methods Tumaihan might use before he came, what he didn't expect was that Tumaihan would be so straightforward and leave no room for maneuver for himself.
Immediately, Zhuertu took out a set of words he had prepared in advance.
"Great Khan, after receiving your order, I led my brothers to attack the Ming army."
"Who would have thought that the Ming troops defending the city would be vulnerable. The defense line they had worked so hard to build would soon be broken down by my brothers."
"According to the accounts of the prisoners captured by my subordinates, those Ming soldiers have not seen pay for a long time. Therefore, their will to fight is very weak. When they actually face the battle, they are just perfunctory!"
After listening to Zhuertu's narration, Tumaihan was overjoyed. His previous suspicion was confirmed.
"Those Ming armies are really vulnerable. Otherwise, how could the three thousand cavalrymen of Zhaertu be able to retreat from those Ming armies without any damage?"
"It's impossible, he must have defected to the Ming army!"
Tumaihan felt much better when he thought that he would be able to plunder a large amount of livestock, grain, cattle, sheep, and women from those wise men.
Then, he looked away from Zhuertu and immediately gave instructions.
"Since those Ming troops are vulnerable, it's time for us to put our previous plans on the agenda. Don't forget our original purpose. Every day the army stays here is a huge waste!"
"Zhaoertu, since you have already fought against the Ming army, you must have a certain understanding of them. Therefore, I have decided that in the next battle, you will be the first to attack the Ming army. How about it?"
At this moment, Zhuertu's heart was full of joy. He was glad that he had taken a gamble and cooperated with the Ming army.
Otherwise, sooner or later, he will be plotted to death by the insidious villain Tumaihan!
After Tumaihan's words fell, the main tent suddenly became quiet, and everyone was waiting for Zhuertu's answer.
I saw Zhuertu's face full of resentment, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he stared at Tumaihan fiercely without saying a word. Not only that, Zhuertu also clenched his fists tightly, as if There will be an attack on the spot.
Soon, several scolding sounds sounded in Zhaoertu's ears.
"Zhaoertu, what do you want to do? Do you want to offend the Great Khan?"
"What, do you want to disobey the Khan's orders?"
After noticing the movement in the main tent, the guards outside quickly rushed in. Seeing this, they all pulled out the scimitars at their waists and gradually approached Zhaertu.
Tumaihan didn't care about the resentment in Zhuertu's eyes. He only waved his hand. Upon seeing this, the previous guards bowed respectfully to Tumaihan and quickly took the order and left.
Immediately, Tumaihan looked at Zhuertu again and said unhurriedly.
"What, Zhaertu, are you going to disobey this Khan's order?"
After hearing this, Zhuertu seemed to have thought of something, and his clenched fists weakly let go.
Tumai rarely saw this situation, so he smiled and added immediately.
"Since you have no objection to this, then the matter is settled."
"In the next battle, your troops will serve as the vanguard and attack the Ming army!"
Hearing this, Zhuertu's face showed a look of struggle, but Tumai, who was rarely like this, did not say anything to urge him, and just waited quietly for Zhuertu to make the final decision.
After a long time, Zhuertu seemed to have accepted his fate, and then he spoke.
"Follow your orders, noble Khan!"
After saying this, Zhuertu seemed to have lost all his strength, and casually found a reason to leave the main tent.
After Zhuertu left the main tent, the remaining people mocked him and flattered Tumaihan.
"Is this the claw with the title of Battle? In my opinion, he is a coward!"
"Yes, he is a coward. The Great Khan has obviously given him a chance, but he just doesn't cherish it!"
"This claw figure is not worthy of having the title of Battle..."
Perhaps he was a little tired of hearing it, but Tumaihan waved his hand to signal everyone to be silent, and immediately made a plan.
"Although he was willing to serve as a vanguard and attack the Ming army, Ben Khan still felt uneasy about him."
"So, when the time comes, let his troops be at the forefront. If he does anything strange, just kill him on the spot."
When Tumaihan said this, he paused for a moment, looked around, and then continued.
"In addition, another 20,000 people will be left as support in case of any eventuality. The remaining people will be under the command of this Khan!"
"Follow your orders, noble Khan!"
…
At this moment, there are two armies, one behind the other, marching rapidly towards Jizhou Town. The army at the front is commanded by Zhuertu, while the endless army behind is led by Tumaihan, the great Khan, led it personally!
There is still a lot of distance between the two sides.
While Zhuertu was still dazed, Amugu's voice from the side brought him back to reality.
"Chief, when the time comes to lead Tumaihan's troops into the encirclement, how will we escape?"
Hearing this, Zhuertu turned his gaze to Amugu who was riding a horse aside. After thinking for a moment, he gave a response.
"Go and tell the brothers that when they arrive at the ambush location, they will follow my orders!"
"This time, we must seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to completely eradicate Tumaihan, a serious enemy of ours. Otherwise, all of us will not end well!"
