After saying this, Shangguan Wenruo looked around again and said: "May I ask everyone present, how is the life of the Wushi under the rule of Bai Rong? Not good, the King of Xirong will only regard you as slaves and plunder the fruits of your labor. , enslave your people."
"And my king is a sage king of a generation, with the world in mind, how can I be compared to the little Bai Rong."
"If Wushi has meritorious service, he will be treated well. Your people will live a happy life, continue to herd sheep and horses, and will no longer suffer from exploitation. And you will also receive the rewards you deserve, either as officials or with gifts. Lord."
Hearing this, everyone in the tent was obviously in some commotion. Wu Yi was also moved in his heart and asked in a solemn voice: "Sir, are you saying that we can be officials?"
"Of course." Shangguan Wenruo said directly: "My king has always made clear rewards and punishments, and in the Western Border region, how can we miss Wushi."
Wu Yi narrowed his eyes, and the commotion among the people in the tent became even greater.
For the Wushi, they have no allegiance to Bai Rong. They are just surrendering under the force of force. The cattle and sheep they graze will be taken away by Bai Rong unconditionally. The people of the clan, in front of Bai Rong, Will be inferior to others.
Now, if you can make contributions to the King of Qin and get the recognition of the Qin State, it will undoubtedly be a better choice.
Shangguan Wenruo observed everyone's reactions and already had the answer in his mind. He cupped his hands slightly and said calmly: "That's it for now. How to make the decision is all up to the leader himself. But this opportunity only lasts once. I'll take my leave."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Seeing this, many people became a little anxious and leaned forward: "Master leader..."
Wu Yi raised his hand to interrupt them, staring at Shangguan Wenruo's back. Just when he was about to walk out of the tent, he stood up and said, "Sir, please stay."
Shangguan Wenruo paused slightly, turned around and asked doubtfully: "What else does the leader have to do?"
"Haha." Wu Yi put a smile on his face, walked down from his seat and said: "Oh, sir, look, it's already late, it's almost noon, how can I not let people throw a banquet? If the reception is not good, I'm afraid I'll make King Qin angry."
"this……"
"Ah, please, sir."
Wu Yi spoke and extended his hand politely.
At the same time, Rongdu.
This is the old nest of the King of Xirong, and it has the scale of a Central Plains city.
At this time, Su Yi's troops had already arrived at the city and launched a tentative attack on Rongdu.
This attack had the intention of testing the truth, because Kuban had already drawn up the defense map and handed it over to Su Yi.
After the First World War, the Qin army hastily withdrew its troops. In the temporary camp, a sand table was erected in the middle, depicting the entire Rongdu and even the surrounding arteries in great detail.
When the generals gathered around the sand table, Su Yi was the first to speak: "Based on the current situation, the defense map given by Kuban is true. Although we have this information, it will not play a big role in conquering Rongdu." ."
"Especially here." As he spoke, he pointed to a certain place on the sand table, "Here, there are more than a thousand elite Xirong soldiers, which effectively blocked our siege tactics. To break the Rongdu, we must first remove this nail. ."
"More importantly, he blocked our route to intercept King Xirong's escape."
"That's why I want Wang He to pretend to attack Rongdu on the east road."
"Goldman Sachs South Gate is the main attack."
"Xu Rong is responsible for pulling out the enemy troops in the western suburbs!"
"This battle cannot be delayed. We will attack immediately after lunch!"
"No!" All the generals cheered and clasped their fists in unison.
On the other side, Rongdu Nei.
King Xirong was pacing back and forth anxiously.
There was a civil official standing below. He moved his lips and said bravely: "King, not only does Su Yi want to attack the capital, but King Qin's main force is also continuing to move north. The situation is dangerous."
What he said was completely nonsense. The King of Xirong was not a fool. He had already received the news that Baltu's entire army had been annihilated two days ago. Similarly, the news of Kuban's defeat had also been sent back a long time ago.
Both front lines of our army have been wiped out. There are only less than 4,000 troops left in the capital, and there is no possibility of reinforcements. Even if we can withstand Su Yi now, how will we be able to hold on when the main force of the Qin army arrives.
The only way to survive at the moment was to abandon the city and flee. King Xirong knew it very well. Seeing that he had not yet made a final decision, the civil servant couldn't help but said anxiously: "King, given the current situation, if we delay any longer, it will be too late."
Hearing this, King Xirong stopped, looked at the civil servants and said, "Have all the arrangements for the withdrawal to the west been made?"
"Everything is ready and you can retreat at any time." The civil servant returned.
"Okay." King Xirong took a deep breath and said bitterly: "King Qin Xiao Yuan actually pushed me to this point! This revenge must be avenged!"
"And the Di and Qiang tribes! Let them pay the price sooner or later!"
"Oh, Your Majesty, now that the matter has come to an end, it's better to evacuate to Wushi as soon as possible. Keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood." The civil servants didn't want to die in Rongdu, and they were more anxious than anyone else.
"Go down and make arrangements." King Xirong waved his hand.
"Yes, yes." The civil servant quickly accepted the order.
After he left, Zhekang walked in not long after. He was specially summoned by the King of Xirong when he came here. After meeting him, he also bowed respectfully: "King."
"General Zhekang." King Xirong motioned for him to level up and said in a high-sounding voice: "You have always been my most trusted person. At this critical moment, you must shoulder the heavy responsibility."
"This..." Zhekang's head was slightly lowered, not knowing what to say.
The King of Xirong looked at him squarely and said with a serious face: "Now is the moment of life and death for my Bai Rong clan! As a general of our clan, you must fight for the country! I order you! Hold on to the capital and never give in!" "
"Our warriors will never surrender even if they fight to the last moment! I will also live and die with the soldiers on the front line!"
What he said was awe-inspiring. Although Zhekang was not the main war party before, but in such a critical situation, as a general, when he heard such words, he also perked up and said in a shocked voice: "Yes!"
Seeing his statement, King Xirong nodded with satisfaction, with an expression of appreciation on his face, "Go and defend."
"Yes! Please rest assured, Your Majesty! The general would rather die than retreat!" Zhekang saluted and turned away.
Immediately afterwards, another general walked in.
Seeing him, King Xirong changed his words and said seriously: "Now, the Di and Qiang tribes have agreed to send troops, and the Wushi will also support them from the west. Our reinforcements will arrive soon."
"But the key problem is that Su Yi has already arrived at the city and will launch a strong attack at any time. The western suburbs are especially important, because once it is broken there, the Qin army will besiege the city. When the time comes, the main road will be occupied, and reinforcements will not be able to come in time. ."
"Therefore, no matter what, you must guard the western suburbs! If you guard it, you will be the number one hero of our clan!"
When he heard that the reinforcements were coming, the Rong general immediately became energetic and immediately shouted back: "Please don't worry, Your Majesty! If the western suburbs are broken, I will come to see you!"
"Okay!" King Xirong said with joy on his face.
He was already preparing to escape, but he summoned two generals one after another. It was obvious that he wanted Zhekang and the others to buy time so that he could escape safely.
