"Hmph, he committed suicide. First it was Guo Xingjian, and now Gou Gui. Are you possessed by evil spirits? It's funny, it's funny!" Gou Ba sat in the tent and smiled disdainfully: "Guo Xingjian committed suicide, and I lost a lot of important things." The chess piece, you are so precious, I will save myself some trouble."
"Next, it's time to implement the plan."
Gou Ba sat up from the chair, strolled out of the tent, called someone and said: "Give me the order, prepare immediately, the whole army will follow me to attack the Great Wall, we will take it down today!"
"Your Majesty, is it too early to send out the army now?" The man did not immediately go to deliver the order, but asked instead.
"Morning? It's late!"
"But General Gougui said..."
"Him?" Gou Ba was obviously angry, but he still tried to be calm and said, "General Gou Gui discussed this matter with me before."
Gou Ba talked about pretending to be sad: "He said, 'It was me who underestimated Ye Wujiang. It was my mistake in decision-making that led to the sacrifice of so many brothers in vain. I was sorry for His Majesty's expectations.'"
"He said that he was going to seek punishment from His Majesty. I tried to persuade him several times and told him that this was not his problem. After all, the other party was Ye Wujiang, but it still failed to change the general's mind."
"So, we are going to send out the army now. While the Kang army is still in the joy of victory, we can take the Great Wall by surprise, seize the Great Wall, and attack the interior to realize our clan's great cause and avenge the general. If we delay it any longer, I'm afraid that the other party's reinforcements will come before us. Come and make our situation even more disadvantageous.”
Gou Ba knew that Gou Gui would definitely say something bad about him to Gou Buta before he died, and Gou Buta should be suspicious of himself at this moment, and had not told others the cause and effect of Gou Gui's suicide. And what I was betting on was these information gaps, so I would first subdue some of my subordinates so that they could be used for myself!
"I obey!" After hearing what Gou Ba said, the man turned around and left without hesitation.
Kangguo.
"Your Majesty, I see that I am always worried. I wonder if there is anything I can share with Your Majesty?" Xu Changsheng rode his horse and came to Xie Wule's side.
Xie Wule looked at him with a smile: "Brother Xu, there are still some things that I can't quite figure out. Why do so many people in the Mo tribe hate them in Kangguo?"
Xu Changsheng was stunned. He didn't expect that Xie Wule would be troubled by this issue, because it was he who proposed the idea of marching towards the Mo tribe. Then he smiled and said: "Your Majesty, if everyone has any conflict with the Mo tribe, it is definitely impossible. Why does our mood fluctuate when we mention them? There are many aspects involved."
"First of all, there are historical factors. Since the founding of the Mo tribe a hundred years ago, they have always looked at our country. But they can pretend to be forbearing. When they think they are weak, they send envoys to our country to meet the emperor. Every time they come, they bring many strange things. Rare treasures, and then request to send envoys to study in our country. Naturally, our great country will not refuse."
"After they learned the technology and returned to the country, and their own technology was improved, and the country became stronger and stronger, their fangs were openly exposed. They often invaded us, burned, killed and looted all over our country, and the people's lives were miserable. ."
"The imperial court sent troops to attack, but they were defeated and retreated, but it won't be long before they come again to cause trouble."
"Then let's count the racial reasons. Although we have changed dynasties and had many countries fighting for supremacy, we are still the same ethnic group, and the Mo people are quite different from us. During the period of multi-country struggle for supremacy, if the Mu people invade, all countries will stop the dispute. The priority is to deal with the Mo tribe. It’s like a fight between brothers in a family, why are you, an outsider, interfering in it?”
"Then there is a shameful custom among the Mo people. After the father dies, the son inherits, and the brother dies and the younger brother inherits the inheritance."
"Huh? What's the point? Aren't we the same?" Xie Wule asked doubtfully.
"Chen is not talking about the throne, but about women!"
Xie Wule looked shocked. Seeing Xu Changsheng's extremely disgusted expression, he suddenly felt that he could understand why he was like this.
Xie Wule nodded. What Xu Changsheng said was reasonable, but he still had some thoughts: "Are there no good people in the Mo clan?"
Xu Changsheng was once again stunned by Xie Wulewen. He thought Xie Wule was just asking casually, but he didn't expect that he would struggle with this issue for so long: "Yes! There are definitely good people. It's just that there are not as many bad people. In comparison, there are even more It’s very small.”
"Moreover, no one we are going to face next is a good person as His Majesty calls him. Since he has chosen to invade us and deliberately provoke a war between the two countries, it means that he does not know right from wrong, so everyone can punish him. !”
"That's it." Xie Wule nodded slightly, then raised his head and said, "Thank you, Brother Xu."
"It is truly my honor to be able to relieve His Majesty's worries."
"There are good people in the Mo clan, and Brother Gou Ba should be the one." Xie Wule looked at the road ahead and said softly.
I often think about revenge, but when I actually implement it, I am not as comprehensive as I imagined and can consider many aspects of the problem. The broken dagger was given to me by Gou Ba.
"Huh? Thanks brother!"
Xie Wule walked straight towards the palace, and a shout suddenly rang out.
Apart from Song Mingxing and the others, I don't know anyone in the imperial city. Who could it be? Xie Wule looked back in confusion, and then he was overjoyed: "Brother Gou Ba! Why are you here?"
"Let's go and talk somewhere else." Xie Wule saw the eyes of many people around him being attracted to him, looked at Gou Ba again, and said.
Gou Ba also noticed that there were a lot of people watching him, so he agreed.
The two came to a deserted alley.
"Brother Gou Ba, why are you here? I heard that a large number of Mo people are being arrested in Kangguo for some reason. If you are not careful, you will come to the most dangerous imperial city instead." Xie Wule was a little worried. I heard the news on the way.
"Thank you for your concern, brother. I have also heard something about this. Although I don't know the reason, I haven't done anything illegal. Isn't it strange that I am hiding? Instead, it shows that I am guilty." Gou Ba smiled slightly: "Thank you, brother. Have you recovered?" Gou Ba looked concerned as he said that, looking up and down at Xie Wule.
"Thanks to Brother Gouba for your help that day, I was able to save my life. I haven't even thanked you properly yet!" Xie Wule felt a little embarrassed when he said it.
"Hahaha, Brother Xie doesn't have to worry about trivial matters. Well, why wasn't the girl who found you that day with you?" Gou Ba looked at Xie Wule's side. When he discovered him just now, he seemed to be in the same mood. He is alone.
"Are you talking about Miss Weiwei? She is in the Imperial City and she has gone back."
Gou Ba nodded: "Brother Xie, why did you come to the imperial city?"
Before Xie Wule had time to answer, there was discussion not far away.
"Where? Are you sure it's here?"
"I'm sure. I just saw a Mo man coming here with a Kang man."
"Brother Gouba, I think you'd better hide for a while. Although you didn't do anything bad, it's still very troublesome to get entangled with them." Xie Wule looked a little anxious.
Gou Ba's smile faded, his brows furrowed slightly and he nodded. He looked at the sword on Xie Wule's waist, then took out a dagger and handed it to him: "Brother Xie, I'll leave first. The situation doesn't seem to be peaceful now." , I’ll give you this dagger. An extra weapon will give you more peace of mind. Brother Xie, please take care of yourself!”
After that, he left in a hurry.
As soon as Xie Wule put away his dagger, several officers and soldiers appeared in front of him. He looked around and asked, "Have you seen a man from the Yimo tribe?"
Xie Wule shook his head, and those people asked a few more questions. Xie Wule answered them all, and the officers and soldiers left.
Looking at the backs of those people, Xie Wule silently prayed for Gou Ba: "Brother Gou Ba, take care of yourself too!"
When Xu Changsheng saw what Xie Wule was thinking about, he didn't bother him and just followed him silently.
The sky was getting dark, and Xie Wule and his party were preparing to rest on the spot.
"General Zhang." A soldier came over in a hurry.
Zhang Xing was about to drink water and put down the water bag in his hand: "What's the matter?"
"Report to the general, there is news from the front. General Ye Wujiang of the Kang State was defeated by the Mo army, and the Great Wall was lost!"
"What! Ye Wujiang allowed the Great Wall to fall? How is that possible! Are you sure?" Zhang Xing couldn't believe his ears. After all, that was Ye Wujiang!
I had fought with him several times, but never took advantage of him. I was ultimately defeated by him, so I naturally knew how powerful his tactics were.
"It's absolutely true. The general has confirmed the accuracy of the news in many ways."
"Well, please step back first."
"Yes!" The soldier retreated.
Zhang Xing frowned. Ye Wujiang actually sometimes loses to others? It’s hard to believe, could this be part of his plan? But this is completely unnecessary, not to mention that the location of the Great Wall has been given to Mo Ren. It will not be easy to take it back by then.
Or maybe Mo Ren has created a one-of-a-kind man who can surpass Ye Wujiang in leading troops in battle?
The more Zhang Xing thought about it, the less he understood.
A few days later. While everyone was still on their way, another person rode his horse and came to Zhang Xing's side: "General, there is news from the front that Gaofeng and Xiaguang counties have been lost. General Ye Wujiang of Kang State led his army to retreat to Pushi County."
"Yeah, I understand."
Zhang Xing looked in the direction of Pu Shi and murmured: "I don't know what is going on."
"General Zhang, has something happened?" Xie Wule has seen people coming to report to Zhang Xing from time to time in the past few days. Zhang Xing would frown every time he heard this.
"Back to Your Majesty, news came from the front. The soldiers of Kang State were defeated by the Mo army and the Great Wall has been lost!" Zhang Xing did not hide anything and answered truthfully.
"It's not a good thing that the Great Wall has been lost." Xie Wule said. He had participated in the construction of the Great Wall and knew that it was easy to defend but difficult to attack. He didn't expect that it would also be lost. You can imagine how ferocious the silent army's offensive was.
"Yes, not only that, Gaofeng and Xiaguang counties were also lost!" Zhang Xing said again.
"What? Gaofeng and Xiaguang counties have also been lost? Then." Xie Wule exclaimed fiercely: "Then we can't delay any longer. We have to speed up the process. Please give the order to General Zhang."
"What your Majesty is saying is that the silent army is coming with force. If we delay it any longer, I'm afraid it will become more and more disadvantageous for us. I will give my orders now."
Xie Wule was not only afraid that the Mo army would occupy more ground, but also because the Yunbian City where he once lived was under the jurisdiction of Gaofeng County. If Gaofeng County fell, the small border town of Yunbian City would naturally fall into the hands of the Mo people.
Recalling what he had heard from many places about the Mo people's attitude towards the Kang people, Xie Wule became anxious. There were still people he cared about in Yunbian City.
