The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 870

[Chapter 870 The Eagle and the Cow]

At this moment, we are dozens of kilometers away from Qiyan Gong.

Twenty thousand cavalry surged forward like a wave.

Looking around, it really looks like the ocean, boundless.

These are the real main forces of the Qiyan tribe, and their commander is the emperor of the Qiyan tribe – Qiyan Xiong.

Unlike Da Chu, it was extremely rare for the emperor to conduct a personal expedition.

For the grassland tribes, it is normal for the leaders of each tribe to go to war in person.

Many people even acted as vanguards, leading the charge.

Of course, with so many people in charge, Qi Yanxiong couldn’t lead the charge like those small tribes.

At this moment, he was riding a horse in the middle of the army, surrounded by elite guards.

There are also some generals.

Among these Qiyan tribe generals, a figure stood out extremely conspicuously.

This person is the envoy of Prince Kang’s Mansion, Yuan Junzhe!

“Do you have such mighty warriors in Chu?”

Qi Yanxiong looked at the army in front of him, and asked with pride and a smile on his face.

Yuan Junzhe was startled at first when he heard Qi Yanxiong’s sudden words.

I didn’t know how to answer for a while.

After thinking for a moment, he said: “The great army of the Qiyan tribe is like an eagle on the grassland, flying in the sky, free and scornful of the world. What

we Dachu want is to protect a pure land, farm with peace of mind and support our family, that’s all. That’s all.

Therefore, many cities and fortresses were built, just like the hard-working cattle, which are strong and strong.

Although the eagle looks down on the grassland, it may not be able to do anything to the cattle.

” What he said was quite good, at least he didn’t lose the dignity of Da Chu.

Before coming here, Yuan Junzhe had thought about what he wanted to do.

While ensuring that Qi Yanxiong is not angered, the dignity of Da Chu, the Da Chu court and the Da Chu royal family should be maintained as much as possible.

Of course, this is just our best effort.

The most important thing is to get rid of the sycophants!

As long as this goal can be achieved, great concessions can still be made.

really.

Qi Yanxiong heard Yuan Junzhe compare Qi Yanbu to an eagle and Da Chu to a plowing cow, but he did not get angry.

He just laughed twice, and then said loudly with a heroic voice: “The eagle can’t help the cattle, but the wolves never take the cattle seriously.

Our begging department is the eagle, the grassland All the tribes together are like a pack of wolves!”

When Yuan Junzhe heard this, he fell silent and did not refute.

Strictly speaking, he was not an envoy.

Just a lobbyist.

Therefore, all he needs to do is this. Since Qi Yanxiong has said so, he has nothing to argue with.

As he was thinking this, some voices suddenly came from in front of him.

Immediately, the shaking of the earth seemed to be stronger.

Although Yuan Junzhe has no experience living on the grassland, he can still detect subtle changes after staying there for so many days.

There’s someone ahead!

Sure enough, the cavalry in front began to change their formation.

The marching speed also slowed down.

The general beside him also stopped laughing and returned to his serious expression.

Time passes minute by minute.

Several scouts rode to the middle camp.

After the report, a captain came to the emperor of Qiyan tribe and reported: “Your Majesty, there are wolf cavalry in front of you.”

“Wolf cavalry?”

Qi Yanxiong frowned slightly when he heard this and said coldly: ” Didn’t I send them to Qiu Ning Town? Qi Yan Gong didn’t capture Qiu Ning Town?”

There was some doubt in this tone, and some disappointment.

Qiyan Gong is his most satisfied son.

If there are no accidents, Qi Yan Gong will definitely succeed him in the future.

However

, under such conditions, the most elite Wolf Cavalry in the Qiyan tribe failed to capture Qiuning Town.

It still disappointed him.

It was not that he was disappointed that Qiuning Town was not captured, but that he was disappointed.

The commander did not answer, hesitated for a moment, and then said: “General Wulan said that there are no defenders in Qiuning Town.”

“No defenders?”

After the commander finished speaking, not only Qi Yanxiong, but also other people were confused. Among them is Yuan Junzhe.

No one knows better than them.

Qiuning Town is the first line of defense for the four northern states of Dachu to resist the grassland tribes, and it is the top priority.

The people stationed here are also elites.

The fortress of Qiuning Town took a lot of effort to build.

How could it be possible to just throw it away?

“What Wu Lanjin said?”

Qi Yanxiong looked at the captain, frowned, and asked.

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

The commander responded, and then he looked hesitant. After struggling for a long time, he finally said: “Not only that, General Ulan also said that the villages along the way were also empty, without a single person. There is no food, not even any bedding left.” “How could

this

happen? Did the Chu people already know that we were coming?”

“Seven days ago, my sentry in Qiuning Mansion told me, Qiuning Mansion has not changed at all. How come Qiuning Town and nearby villages are empty?

“This is impossible!”

The generals all expressed disbelief.

Qi Yanxiong was also very suspicious.

After all, if this news is true, it means too many things.

He, and even the entire begging department, couldn’t afford it!

He frowned, looked at the commander, his expression became a little cold, and said coldly: “Where is Qiyan Gong? Why is Wulanjin reporting?”

“General Qiyan is heading to Qiuning with two hundred wolf cavalry. General Wulan said that General Qiyan might bypass Qiuning City, disturb Anzhou City, and attract the attention of Qiuning City.

“You bastard, you are just a bastard!”

The captain had not finished his words. , was interrupted by Qi Yanxiong’s angry roar.

Seeing Qi Yanxiong’s anger, the commander suddenly didn’t dare to say a word.

Qi Yanxiong took a deep breath and just calmed down his emotions. He looked at the commander and said coldly: “Let Wu Lanjin come to see me! Immediately! Immediately!”

The commander did not dare to show any signs of neglect and was busy. He said: “Yes, Your Majesty!”

After saying that, he rode away, not daring to waste a single minute.

After he left, the discussion among the generals became more lively.

“If the court of Dachu had known that we were coming, why didn’t they plant a divine punishment on the road in advance?”

“Why did they abandon Qiuning Town? If they had known in advance, they would have sent more people to guard Qiuning Town. As long as they Hold Qiuning Town and wait for the reinforcements from Kyoto Prefecture, and they will win!”

“Why did they know that we were coming? Even if we only knew the news five days ago, not even the scouts or the Imperial Court of Chu would know. Maybe he knew it so quickly, even faster than us!”
