"march--"
"My lord has an order. Before the autumn harvest, we will completely wipe out this tiger barbarian tribe!"
Xu Mu put on his armor, raised his head silently, and glanced at the formation in front of him.
This time, 8,000 Shu soldiers were mobilized from the central Shu area to join Meng Huo's 20,000 plain barbarian camp and break into the tiger barbarian settlements.
Si Hu rode on the horse in high spirits, bragging to his two generals from time to time.
"I didn't want to come originally, but Brother Mu and the others insisted on dragging me here, saying that it wouldn't work without me as General Tiger. Otherwise, I would have to stay at home to take care of my wife."
"Brother Tiger, the master wants you to go back." Little Dog Fu said next to him.
Suddenly, Si Hu immediately silenced his voice. If he went back to the mansion and continued beating sandbags, he would be bored out of his mind.
"Gou Fu, how is Meng Huo doing?"
"Lord, we are already deploying troops."
"Gou Fu, my son is going too?" Upon hearing this, Si Hu hurried over.
"Of course. In a few years, Brother Tiger will no longer be your opponent."
"Nonsense, when I see him, I will beat him in front of him."
Gou Fu curled his lips, obviously not believing it.
At this time, the army to conquer the tiger barbarians had already set off. The march to the Nanlin Mountains begins, and Meng Huo will also come with 20,000 people from the barbarian camp to join the battle.
Xu Mu calmed down and looked up at the sky. He remembered that the first crusade against the tiger barbarians was when Dongfang Jing had just joined Shuzhou. Until now, several years had passed in a daze.
…
"Why can't I wear it?" Meng Huo, who was riding a horse, pointed to the colorful silk on his short braid. "My little sweetheart, after I finish the war, I have to go back to see her."
An old barbarian standing by said helplessly, "Your Majesty, do you remember Mr. Pei?"
"That bitch first threw stones at me, blinded me and then ran over to me! Otherwise, I would have killed him long ago!"
The grudges between Pingman and Human have been going on for a long time. Not only adults, but also teenagers and children, if they bump into each other in the mountains and forests, they will also fight to the death.
"Your Majesty, who is the leader of the Tiger Barbarians now?"
"It's that bitch Mr. Pei."
"Pei Fu said that he is the barbarian king in the southwest. If he saw the king wearing such a girly thing, he would probably laugh."
Hearing this, Meng Huo cursed and pulled off the colored silk, his face full of anger.
"I told you, I, Meng Huo, am the barbarian king in the southwest!"
"In this case, the king will defeat him and win a reputation. If he cannot win, I am afraid that the king's father, the Tiger General, will come to bother me again."
Meng Huo was startled for a moment, then his eyes burned with fire.
He could already predict that if he couldn't win, his cheap dad would definitely squat in front of him, laugh with his belly in his arms, and call him a weakling and a useless bitch.
"The whole army——" Meng Huo's face froze, and he raised his ax high on his thick arm.
"This time, I will defeat the barbarians, so I will use the weapons in my hand to kill all the tiger barbarians on behalf of my fathers and ancestors!"
"Roar!"
Not long after, behind Meng Huo, 20,000 plain barbarian troops followed suit, raising their weapons and roaring angrily.
About a few days later, Xu Mu arrived at Nanlin County under the Nanlin Mountains.
As a newly developed large county in Shuzhou, it has begun to take shape at this time, with soldiers sent down to open up wasteland and craftsmen helping to build it. At this time, many Shu people and barbarians had settled here.
"Lord, the people from Pingman Camp are here."
Xu Mu dismounted, walked a few steps excitedly, and walked up to a tall young barbarian.
"We haven't seen each other for only two or three years, but you already look so fierce with your figure. Meng Huo, I saw you right!"
"Meng Huo, see my lord!" Although they were familiar with each other, Meng Huo was not arrogant. He knelt down and worshiped Xu Mu seriously. He always understood that if it were not for the King of Shu in front of him, it would be impossible to say that the entire Pingman tribe would have been wiped out by the tiger barbarians.
"Get up. You guys are taller than me." Xu Mu laughed, feeling extremely comfortable. I remembered the first time I met Meng Huo. He was still a young boy. In the blink of an eye, he became a powerful and powerful barbarian king of the southwest.
"My lord... asked me to be the barbarian king, and I have been doing it seriously." Meng Huo chuckled.
"Well, well." Just as the two of them were talking, Si Hu suddenly dismounted and walked over with his hands behind his back. Vaguely, he really looked like a father.
"father……"
"Hey." Si Hu responded, then turned his head inexplicably and glanced at Xu Mu, "Brother Mu, don't praise him. I beat him several times every year, and he dare not disobey. Brother Mu, you It’s better to praise me and reward me with some money——”
"Meng Huo, let's go over there and talk..." Xu Mu rubbed his forehead and dragged Meng Huo's hand to the side.
"Meng Huo, do you know what happened to Human recently?"
"Of course I know. Then Mr. Pei suddenly became the Tiger Barbarian King. I also knew before that there are several Central Plains people in the Tiger Barbarian tribe."
"Central Plains people?" Xu Mu was startled.
"It was those envoys sent by Dongling and Cangzhou in the past to help deal with me in Xishu. My lord killed the Demon Queen and King Zuo, and those people did not dare to go back, so they could only stay in the Human tribe. ”
"Is there anyone famous?"
"I don't know about this. There are tiger barbarians ambushing everywhere under the Nanlin Mountains. They also like to collect miasma, put it into bamboo knots, and throw it on the mountain. For this matter, General Han Jiu was so angry that he cursed several times. My second mother sent out magic archers and killed dozens of tiger barbarians."
Xu Mu was silent for a moment. It seems that this time the matter of killing the tiger barbarians is far from being as simple as imagined.
"Meng Huo, look at this map."
Xu Mu took out a map of the Nanlin Mountains from his arms. The map was drawn more than ten years ago, and Xu Mu finally took it out of the book.
He knew that Meng Huo, the little boy, had hated the tiger barbarians the most before, and he had always paid attention to the situation of the tiger barbarian tribe.
"Any questions?"
Meng Huo looked at it carefully and said, "My lord, there is no problem. The map is correct. But there is one thing that my lord should know."
"Which point?"
"In the past, when the plain barbarians and tiger barbarians were fighting, my favorite thing was to catch mountain beasts and collect ant colonies and poisonous bees to kill the tiger barbarians. Now that the tiger barbarians live in the swamp, the only thing they can rely on is... More. Just like before, they dared to collect the miasma and throw it on the walled city in the Nanlin Mountains."
Xu Mu was silent for a while, thinking about what Meng Huo meant. It's just like borrowing power, water or fire, but this time the tiger barbarian is most likely borrowing poison or beast.
"Meng Huo, you have really grown up." Xu Mu put away the map and said happily.
In fact, not only Meng Huo, but also people such as Xiaowu Fu, Li Liu, and Wei Xiaowu will follow the footsteps of their ancestors in the future, take over the banner, and continue to protect the country of Western Shu.
Although there is no aristocratic family, talents from Xishu are still emerging. In Xu Mu's view, the establishment of the Jiangguantang was considered to be a century-old plan.
The mountain is as tall as my son.
