Even Qiu Liju did not agree, because his own tribe was the biggest tribe. He glared at Su Puyan angrily and waved his hand to everyone: ”Stop quarreling, out of these three million stone grains, we will split them evenly according to the number of people who send out our troops. The number of people who perished will be divided into ten parts.”
With this, no one made a sound. The large tribes who had sent out many troops were obviously satisfied. Even the leader of the Bayan wolf tribe, the one who had suffered heavy casualties nodded in agreement. Only the leader of the Ta Wu Hu Tribe, Wu Yan, was not satisfied. It was because the one charging in was him every time, and the one who contributed the most was him.
”As for the clan that has put in a lot of effort, I know what to do. I will ask for other rewards for you.” Qiu Liju saw Wu Yan's discontent, and could only persuade him kindly, before moving on to the main topic of the day: ”This time, Darky Court has sent Lord Grand Commandant Liu Yu, and the Han Army wants me to personally go meet him. What do you think?”
”Since Lord Grand Commandant Liu Yu is here, as a Lord Wu Huan, it makes sense for you to go.” The leader of the Bayan wolf tribe nodded her head and said solemnly: ”If we send someone else, I'm afraid we will be slow.”
”Yes, yes, my lord should go!” The tribal leaders agreed, but no one really thought about it. No one cared about Qiu Liju's safety, and they were even eager for Qiu Liju to die. They might even have a chance to become the Lord Wu Huan.
”Father, you absolutely cannot!” Ta Dun immediately jumped up, stopping Qiu Liju from personally going forward. Even though he was Qiu Liju's adopted son, he had treated Qiu Liju as his real father. ”Since Zhang Chun had evil intentions, father will probably be in trouble if he goes over. Let your son make a trip for you. Even an army of a hundred thousand Wuhuan's will be unable to leave you, Lord Father. ”
”As expected of my son!” ”Qiu Liju secretly sighed, and exposed a pleased smile. Your son doesn't have to worry, Zhang Chun only has around 3000 cavalry, they are the only ones who still have some combat power. Since you are going to represent me, you can also bring over a thousand cavalrymen, so Zhang Chun probably won't dare to act rashly. ”
”Thank you, father.” Ta Dun's eyes became moist, and he immediately bowed towards Qiu Liju. With over a thousand Wuhuan cavalry s, he did not place Zhang Chun's servants in his eyes at all. If the peace talks were to succeed, he would be the great contributor to Urushion.
In the February of the sixth year, the Luoyang City was immersed in a happy atmosphere. The newly appointed general of the left, Huangfu Song, took advantage of the exhaustion of the kingdom's rebel army and disobeyed the previous general's order to lead his troops into the battle. He obtained complete victory and killed a ten thousand people.
That kingdom's army had surrounded and attacked Chen Cang for months, but they were still unable to capture Chen Cang City. They were already exhausted. When Huangfu Song came to power, perhaps due to Huangfu Song's fame, the kingdom would retreat without fighting, leading the defeated army to flee in panic.
Huangfu Song decided to give chase immediately, but he was stopped by Dong Zhuo: ”Absolutely not, there is a cloud with the way of the troops, do not force people who are poor, and return to your own people. Now that the kingdom has retreated without a fight, there must be something amiss. If we chase after them recklessly, we might be ambushed by the Kingdom. ”
However, Huangfu Song did not agree with Dong Zhuo's words, he said: ”Otherwise, when we did not attack in the past, it was to avoid them; now, we are attacking until their morale is down. We are attacking the division of weariness, not the congregation. The kingdom's troops are on the point of escaping, and they have lost their will to fight. They are not poor bandits. ”
Because Dong Zhuo insisted on his opinion and refused to lead his troops to chase after the kingdom, Huangfu Song could only lead his team to chase after the kingdom. The result was as Huangfu Song expected, the kingdom's army could not even handle a single blow, and Huangfu Song had achieved complete victory.
However, because Dong Zhuo wrongly judged the enemy, he kept the military strategy and doctrine, messing up a good opportunity to eliminate the enemy and build a name for himself. Because of this, he was reprimanded by the imperial government. He was even more embarrassed and resentful, and henceforth, he had formed enmity with Huangfu Song.
Han Sui and the others destroyed the position of the kingdom's leader, and coerced the prefecture overseer, Yan Zhong of Han Yang, to take charge of all the departments. After Yan Zhong died of illness, Han Sui and the rest gradually fought for power and continued to attack each other, causing the West Cold's rebel forces to gradually weaken.
At this time, Grand Commandant Liu Yu had just gathered three million stone rations and was waiting for cavalry brigade s brought by Wu Yi and Wu Ban, who had come under orders to transport the food. After Liu Yu gave the rations to the two brothers, he hurriedly began his journey towards the Youzhou.
Along the way, a large number of displaced persons were still wandering towards Youzhou. They just wanted to live, and there were rumors circulating among the refugees. When they reached Youzhou, they would have a meal, because for the past few years, none of the refugees that ran to Youzhou had returned.
Facing such a large group of refugees, Liu Yu only furrowed his brows. He did not even stop to take an extra look. He was in a rush to negotiate with the Urushion and to pacify Zhang Chun's rebellion as soon as possible. As for the lives of all these people, he did not care about them at all.
In the eyes of these noble Royal Family clansmen, the lives of common people were not important. What was important was their Liu Family's mountains and rivers. As long as they were able to save their lands, even if some commoners died, it didn't matter. Guan Jian's throne could not fall into the hands of others.
