In the past, when he first captured Shuzhou, Xu Mu naturally didn't want the army to be tired and went out to kill the tiger barbarians. But it's different now. The harm of the tiger barbarians is lying nearby, and it's finally time to clean up.
Sitting on the throne, Xu Mu frowned and looked at the Human information in his hand.
The information is similar to before. The number of tiger barbarians has been greatly reduced. Now, there are only 40,000 to 50,000 people left. Although it is said that all the people are soldiers, some old and weak people must be excluded. In addition, the intelligence also mentioned an important point.
The leader of the tiger barbarians, Pei Fu, was invincible and wielded a mountain axe. There are many crocodiles in the swamps under the mountains, but every time they see Pei Fu, they retreat in shock.
Putting away the information, Xu Mu was more willing to believe that the tiger barbarians were exaggerating. In the past few years, although Han Jiu was reckless, he was considered blameless when guarding the Nanlin Mountains. Several horned cities are easy to defend and difficult to attack, which can be regarded as blocking the autumn raids and various invasions of the tiger barbarians.
However, ringworm on the skin has been secretly sponsored by many forces and is ready to take action. Just like pulling out the tiger's beard in Xishu, it had to be destroyed.
"Sun Xun, go and tell Li Tao. Ask him to write a document and spread it throughout Western Shu. Then tell him that I, Xu Mu, will personally conquer the tiger barbarians."
No matter what, the defeat of the tiger barbarians can finally boost morale.
Sun Xun ran out in a hurry.
Xu Mu exhaled and continued to discuss the plan to defeat the tiger barbarians with the puppy Fu in front of him. What impressed him was that, for the first time as a military advisor, Xiaoxiao Fu was able to make a plan for dispatching the army safely and unexpectedly.
…
Outside the Nanlin Mountains, there are many wooden buildings of various types on the scattered swamps. They are all supported by long logs and kept away from the swamps to prevent them from getting wet.
At this time, a naked and burly man, carrying a big python on his back, walked back to the settlement coldly. The big python was probably not dead yet. When it was thrown to the ground, the snake's head moved a few times——
tread.
The tiger barbarian man stepped forward with his bare feet and crushed the snake's head into pieces. Not long after, many tiger barbarians came and began to lie down on the ground and eat raw food.
"King, everyone is here."
The savage man walked up to a huge wooden building with a cold face. In the wooden building, candles were lit with animal oil. Under the candlelight, several extremely frightened faces were reflected.
The owners of these faces are not dressed like barbarians, but rather like people from the Central Plains. These people included former envoys from Demon Empress Su and Dongling. After the country was destroyed, they did not dare to take risks, so they stayed in the Human tribe, waiting for an opportunity to help the Human rebels. Push away Western Shu and return to the Central Plains.
"Your Majesty." A middle-aged man with a goatee spoke. His name was Jiao Wei. He had previously been ordered by Demon Empress Su to cross the mountains and reach the tiger barbarian settlement. As a liaison envoy, he secretly sent a lot of food and grass.
Vaguely, Jiao Wei was already the leader of several Central Plains people.
"Your Majesty, I have heard that Thief Xu is about to raise an army to attack."
Pei Fu, the tiger barbarian king, had a hateful expression on his face, "If he doesn't come, I will go looking for him. Take away my home and kill my people. The hatred between me, the tiger barbarian, and the Shu people is irreconcilable!"
"Your Majesty... Thief Xu is now extremely powerful and invincible."
"What do you mean, you want to retreat deeper into the swamp?" Pei Fu sneered, "If you continue to retreat, you and I will have to live in the swamp!"
"That's not what I meant." Jiao Wei consoled him, "What I mean is that your Majesty might as well use the swamp to defeat Thief Xu!"
"Oh, what do you say?"
"In the swamp, there are crocodiles and pythons, and a lot of miasma. The tiger barbarians must have been used to it after living here for a long time, but if the people of Xishu step into the swamp for the first time... Haha, I'm being honest, it's true Don’t be afraid of death!”
When Pei Fu heard this, he also smiled. Although the people in front of them are not from the same race, they are quite smart in some things.
"May I ask your Majesty, how many barbarian troops can there be?"
"Twenty thousand... about fifteen thousand. As you know, there are only forty or fifty thousand people left in our Tiger Barbarian tribe, including the old, weak, and those with physical disabilities. Ten and fifty thousand barbarian soldiers is already the limit. "
"That's right. The tiger barbarian warriors are indeed the whole nation. If we can defeat the Shu people this time, we will take the opportunity to attack the Nanlin Mountains and seize the two southern counties of Shuzhou!"
Mr. Pei raised his head and closed his eyes, "I heard that the two southern counties are now inhabited by ordinary barbarians?"
"Exactly. The Pingman King Meng Huo has also grown up."
"He is the same age as me." Pei Fu sneered, "Back then, he and I had a few fights when we were young men."
"Who's winning?"
"Of course it's me. That little thing can only hold an ax and rush around recklessly. This time, I want to let him see clearly who is the barbarian king of the southwest!"
Tiger barbarians and plain barbarians are of the same vein but different branches. At the beginning, the tiger barbarians relied on the power of the two Shu kings to kill the flat barbarians and almost wiped out their clan.
But when Xu Mu entered Shu, he used plain barbarians more heavily. The Pingbarbarians did not disappoint him. They accumulated a lot of experience and cooperated with the Shu army to kill the tiger barbarians and ran into the swamp, leaving only tens of thousands of them.
Not only are their belief totems different, but they also have a feud.
"Then King Pingman will follow you this time?" Pei Fu sneered.
"Should follow."
"It's the best." Pei Fu cracked his knuckles, "This time, I want to kill two people. One is King Xu Thief of Shu, and the other is the Little Man King."
"Your Majesty, when the Shu people are defeated, remember to carry the power of victory and attack the Nanlin Mountains. In this way, great things can be expected."
"Haha, okay! This time, Jiao Wei and you are my personal strategists, ready to advise me! If we can conquer the Central Plains and occupy the land of Shu, you and the others will be the great contributors!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Jiao Wei and others said excitedly, clasping their fists.
Pei Fu smiled slightly.
Many times, the elders of the tiger barbarians advised him to kill these outsiders.
But he didn't.
He knew very well that great things could not be achieved by relying solely on the bravery of the tiger barbarians. On the contrary, what is most lacking is the advice of these Central Plains people. If we were to attack the Nanlin Mountains and then instigate those surrendered soldiers...
This is the chance.
Pei Fu exhaled, and there was anger seeping out of his eyes from time to time.
"It's been several years, and I don't know what that little thing looks like now? Has it been beaten?"
…
Shuzhou, Fuyang County.
At this time, there were many Central Plains people and Pingbarbarians interacting with each other in the county. You can even see an ordinary guy with a blushing face asking the price before clearing the store.
"Your Majesty, my lord is going to raise an army to attack the tiger barbarians. Let your Majesty make preparations in advance and lead the Pingbarbarian camp to join forces."
"I know, I know. By the way, is my dad going?"
"General Tiger should be there."
"Hey, this cheap guy, when I went to Chengdu, he used the martial arts training ground to punch me several times."
"Your Majesty, your body has become stronger and stronger in the past two years."
"I'm already nineteen."
The voice fell and the figure turned around.
He has a sharp-edged face with some dark skin, heroic features, and a short mop of hair. The short bra is also tied with colorful silk given by the little flower girl.
"My name is Meng Huo, and I am the barbarian king of the entire southwest!"
