An unknown pasture in the south of the old Luoxi settlement.
Gu threw away the mutton leg bone in his hand.
He looked up at the empty sky, and after confirming that no eagles were patrolling, he breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Brothers, have you eaten and drank enough? If so, it's time to go."
This is far away from the Blood Moon settlement.
But Blood Moon is not like Angel who was killed by Ren Ning several times, so he has to be more careful.
Moreover, there is snow on the ground. Although it is not thick, it can easily expose his whereabouts.
Therefore, it must be transferred as soon as possible.
In fact, Gu Datou and the others are not afraid of war.
It's just that Blood Moon and Angel are having conflicts now, and their relationship is getting more and more tense, and they may even conflict at any time.
It would be bad if their identities were exposed at this time, causing Xue Yue and Angel to come to their senses and finally shake hands and make peace.
"I'm full, I'm full."
The brothers from the Yongqi Battalion randomly grabbed a few handfuls of dead grass in the snow, quickly wiped the grease from their hands and mouths, and then waited for orders as a habit.
Gu Datou nodded, quickly added a few strokes to the almost torn map, then put it away and carefully hid it in his arms.
"You have the whole day off. Mount your horse and let's go home!"
Before, the soldiers were causing trouble everywhere, and the fire they created was already strong enough. Now, both Angel and Blood Moon are on alert.
If they want to get closer, they can indeed kill one or two more small races, but they may just run into the enemy's ambush circle.
Three thousand cavalry is quite a lot, which is fine for small and medium-sized tribes, but not enough for large tribes like Blood Moon or Angel.
Therefore, Gu Datou, Lu Youtian and Qian Chang, who came out with the Yingling Legion, had a little discussion.
The three of them unanimously decided to go back to Yunchui.
They have been out for so long, except for the time in the Kailun Stone Forest. During the rest of the time, they either evade tracking during the day, or rush or sneak attack at night. The long-term life of day and night has made the soldiers exhausted, and it is time to go back and rest.
really,
Wow~
Gu Datou's order spread, and everyone was in high spirits and smiling.
"Go home, go home!"
Soon, the group packed up everything, quickly got on their horses, and headed southeast collectively under the leadership of Gu Datou.
They had maps in their hands and planned to bypass some medium and large settlements far away and then return to the territory of Yunchui in the east.
————
The blood moon army suddenly gathered, not only Angel was startled, but even the royal court further away was a little confused.
After receiving the news, the Prairie King realized something was wrong and quickly sent Babai Li to rush over to inquire about the situation.
A person riding alone can always run very fast. Before the Blood Moon army has set off, the messenger from the Prairie King has arrived.
Here comes Hu Ting Hongliang's right-hand man, Tuo Bacheng.
Xiliang people are generally tall, but Tuoba Cheng is relatively thin. If you don't look at the skin color and pores, he looks more like a gentle and elegant Yunchui man.
As the saying goes, look at the Buddha's face without looking at the monk's face. No matter what Xueyue Zhiyong had in mind, he still welcomed him into the meeting hall politely and served him with good tea and water.
Tuoba Cheng couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw Xue Yue Zhiyong's appearance.
It seems that this mission should not be difficult to complete.
After some polite greetings and reminiscences between the two parties, and seeing that the atmosphere was good, Tuoba Cheng got to the point with a haha.
"Brother Zhiyong, things are getting tense outside. What are you Blood Moon preparing to do?"
"Oh?" Xue Yue Zhiyong chuckled, "I didn't plan anything."
"There have been a lot of wolves on the grassland recently, and these beasts are getting bolder and bolder. Some actually dare to break into our cattle and sheep pens to grab things. The brothers went out to do some activities, and shot a wave of wolves on the way to kill their vigor. .”
Tuoba Cheng's hand shook.
I believe you.
It is normal for wolves to exist on the grassland. In the winter, wolves cannot find food and burrow into
It is normal for cattle and sheep to bite cattle and sheep in herdsmen circles.
But what wolf pack needs to assemble an army of tens of thousands?
"Brother Zhiyong, we are all old acquaintances, there is no need to be secretive. You are gathering an army to deal with the Angel people in Benlu, right?"
"Brother Tuoba, why did you say this?" Xueyue Zhiyong's face was full of surprise.
"Blood Moon and Angel are far apart in the east and west. But we are both from the Xiliang tribe and have been good friends and relatives since ancient times. Moreover, the two tribes have been fighting side by side in Yunzhui for more than three years, and we have formed a deep friendship. friendship."
"How can we deal with them?"
He waved his hand and denied it.
"This is absolutely impossible."
cough.
Tuoba Cheng coughed, not surprised at all.
"Brother Zhiyong, whether it is Blood Moon or Angel, these two tribes are the absolute main force of Xiliang's eastward expedition. No matter who you two are, you are indispensable."
"This Eastern Expedition is not going well. Your Majesty knows that you have suffered heavy losses, and he must feel uncomfortable, so he will inevitably be extreme for a while."
"But you are all a large tribe. There are a lot of so-called adults. Don't let the two sides fight each other because of a little conflict."
Speaking of this, he laughed and waved his hands.
"Otherwise, what will the small and medium-sized tribes below think after seeing this? Right? Besides, the two tribes will still have to work together in the future."
Xueyue Zhiyong also laughed and shook his head in agreement.
"Brother Tuoba, you are overthinking it. The brothers outside are really planning to kill the wolf, and everything has nothing to do with Angel."
Tuoba Cheng was not discouraged and continued to persuade her mother-in-law.
However, Xueyue Zhiyong insisted that they were not planning to attack anything and were gathering troops purely to kill the wolf.
Tuoba Cheng's mouth went dry as he spoke, and in the end he had no choice but to take a step back.
"Brother Zhiyong, I believe you know the reason why I, Tuoba Cheng, rushed to your Blood Moon settlement so quickly."
"Okay, tell me what we, the Royal Court or Angel, need to do to make your Blood Moon mood more popular?"
He raised the milk tea cup towards Xue Yue Zhiyong.
"We value peace. Both sides need to calm down first. Brother Zhiyong can raise any conditions. We can talk slowly."
However, Xue Yue Zhiyong was not moved at all, and did not even look at this side.
Tuoba Cheng couldn't help but feel angry when he saw it.
"Let's see, if I, Tuoba Cheng, am a soft-spoken person, I won't be able to meet Brother Zhiyong's conditions. It doesn't matter..."
He cupped his hands in the direction of the royal court.
"The king will come in person to inquire about this matter when the time comes, until both of you are satisfied."
"Haha, is that okay?"
Xueyue Zhiyong had been listening silently.
It wasn't until he heard this that his expression suddenly changed.
"Tuoba Cheng, for the sake of our past friendship, this clan leader calls you brother Tuoba and treats you kindly. Otherwise, you are nothing!"
Speaking of this, Xue Yue Zhiyong's voice became a little shriller.
"Are you using your Majesty to suppress me?"
Wow.
The door to the chamber opened in response.
The Blood Moon guards outside the door rushed in, the swords in their hands pointed at Tuoba Cheng and others.
It seems that if they disagree with each other, they will be killed by the sword.
Tuoba Cheng's face changed drastically, and his mind suddenly became clearer.
He was a counselor-like presence in the royal court and had no military power in his hands.
If Xue Yue Zhiyong wiped his neck with a knife, and then buried him anywhere, he would never see anyone alive or dead.
It is estimated that when the news reached the royal court, without evidence, Hu Tinghongliang would only curse a few words, and in the end he would have to hold his nose and endure it.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding." Tuoba Cheng jumped up quickly and waved his hands, "Brothers, please don't do anything. It's all a misunderstanding."
"Blood Moon Clan Chief
, I, Tuoba Cheng, intend to come here to reconcile the issue, and I have no intention of forcing you to have a blood moon. If I was careless just now and said something wrong, you can always point it out. There is no need to use knives or guns. "
oh?
Xueyue Zhiyong nodded, "So you're here to solve the problem?"
"OK!"
"Then you all should settle down in our tribe first and wait until we kill those wolves."
