    "General, look, it's the lord's flag, and the lord is at the city gate!"

    "My subordinate, Li Chenfeng, pays homage to the lord!" Seeing Zhao Xun appear at the gate of the city, Li Chenfeng hurriedly got off his horse, walked a few steps quickly, and bowed.

    Zhao Xun quickly helped Li Chenfeng, who was saluting, and said in a seemingly displeased tone: "Uncle Li, why is this necessary? All officers and men are meritorious officials, so don't be polite! Go to the city to rest!"

    Although Zhao Xun said that there was no need to be polite, Li Chenfeng naturally did not really need to be polite.  Even if Zhao Xun didn't care, as a subordinate, he couldn't ignore it.  The courtesy between a monarch and his ministers is higher than family ties

    In the guarding envoy¡¯s office, Li Chenfeng recounted his experiences in the past five or six days one by one.  Everyone heard this and sighed, wishing they were there at the time.

    "Okay! Well done. Now, it will be enough for the Turks to suffer for a while. Even Xue Nie Khan should appease these five tribes. In addition, 80,000 war horses are also a burden to us.  It's a big gain." After listening to what Li Chenfeng said, Feng Ziming clapped his hands and laughed.

    "Now that Uncle Li has withdrawn, let's send an order to all the major tribes to strictly guard their headquarters and not to rush out rashly. Let the leaders of each tribe come to see me. As for the thirty or so small tribes, let their leaders come too.  This is the place. As for the soldiers from all tribes, they should all gather here." Zhao Xun ordered in a deep voice.

    "Every soldier who participated in the battle this time, whether it is our Zhao army or the warriors of the Landu tribe, will be rewarded heavily!" At the end, Zhao Xun said in a deep voice, marking the outcome of this battle.

    "Thank you, Lord!" "Thank you, His Highness King Zhao!" Whether it was the general of the Zhao army or the officers of the Landu tribe, they all said with great joy.  Especially the Landu tribe officer, whose face looked like a chrysanthemum smile.  The reward from King Zhao is naturally extraordinary. Now there are many merchants from Zhao in the Landu tribe. With the reward, they can have all kinds of things they want.

    Within a few days, all the tribes in Xiazhou and northern Bingzhou were in action.  Zhao Xun gave the order, and no matter how big or small the tribe was, and whether the tribal leader had real power or not, they all took action immediately.  No one dared to ignore Zhao Xun's military orders and mobilized their troops to move north.

    It was this simple action that made Xue Nie Khan dare not move lightly.  By the time they found the location of Li Chenfeng's Zhao army and dispatched a large army to encircle and suppress them, Li Chenfeng had already returned to the Landu tribe's stronghold.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The Bujia tribe is a large tribe located directly north of Xiazhou. It is one of the nine tribes that are dependent on Zhao Jun.  There is another tribe, the Qiyu tribe, between him and the Landu tribe.

    The leader of the Bujia tribe is Ha Gang, who is young, powerful and ambitious.  The Bujia tribe was originally one of the most powerful tribes within hundreds of miles to the north of Xiazhou, but precisely because of this, it was suppressed by Xue Nie Khan.  After Xue Nie Khan was defeated in Bingzhou, he passed through the Bujia tribe on his way back and asked for a large number of livestock and war horses from the Bujia tribe.  Ha Gang was extremely angry about this.

    Because of this, in order to resist the subsequent suppression by Xue Nie Khan, he attached himself to the Zhao army envoy who happened to be here to seek cooperation.  Of course, the strength of Zhao Jun is also a very important factor.  After all, the Zhao army was strong and was bound to fight back, and the Bujia tribe was too close to Xiazhou.

    Therefore, Ha Gang took this opportunity and turned to Zhao Jun.  Of course, his original intention was not to completely surrender to Zhao Jun, but to use each other with Zhao Jun.  By relying on Zhao Jun, he can obtain Zhao Jun's food, salt, tea and other daily necessities, as well as Zhao Jun's armor and equipment.  In addition, he can trade with the Zhao army to make the tribe stronger.  Of course, he hoped to rely on Zhao Jun to resist Xue Nie Khan's aggressive and increasingly fierce oppression.

    He thought that Zhao Jun's wooing of him meant that he would no longer attack Zhao's land and establish the northern border of Zhao's land.  However, he was wrong.  After Zhao Jun won over nine large tribes, he began to send out troops to raid the areas three hundred miles north of Xiazhou and Bingzhou. On this thousand-mile-long grassland, more than a hundred tribes, large and small, were fighting in the cold winter.  encountered war.  The nine major tribes sent troops to help Zhao Jun in order to obtain food, salt, tea, military equipment and resist the oppression of Xue Nie Khan.

    As a result, the land 300 miles north of Xiazhou and Bingzhou became the jurisdiction of Zhao Jun, and the southernmost 100 miles became the area directly under Zhao Jun, who had already established prefectures and counties there.  Among the hundreds of tribes, only thirty tribes existed, but they were all moved within these three hundred miles, disrupted each other, and obeyed the jurisdiction of Zhao Jun.  Zhao Jun even sent officials and troops to stay at these tribal leaders.

    Even his nine major tribes were forced to move their bases one after another according to Zhao Jun's orders, and lined up along Xiazhou and Bingzhou to become the border Great Wall of Zhao Jun.

    Ha Gang achieved what he wanted, but more unwanted things also happened to him.  One of the nine major tribes has been annexed by the Zhao army.  Zhao Junna gave the tribeAs a civilian, his personal property was protected and he did not need to hand it over to the tribal leader. He immediately gained the support of the Landu tribe.  And this measure is also a sharp sword hanging over the heads of the other eight tribes.  Among the eight major tribes, many tribesmen have fled their tribes and gone south to survive in Zhao territory.

    Ha Gang discovered that what he got was not as good as expected.  Although he holds the position of guard envoy, he cannot get any benefits from Zhao Jun. Any materials obtained from Zhao Jun are obtained through trading of livestock, war horses, leather, and tendons, and all of these are used to make weapons.  Or become an important material to assist on the battlefield.  The name of this guardian can only serve as a warning to Khan Xue Nie and the Turks in the northern grasslands that we are from the Zhao army.  Not only did he not benefit from this, but he became the target of various tribes and Xue Nie Khan.

    Although he was unwilling to do so, he had already fallen out with Xue Nie Khan. He had personally led the army to assist the Zhao army in destroying dozens of tribes, so naturally he could not look back.  And the strength of Zhao Jun made him dare not make the slightest move.  Coupled with the inspectors sent by Zhao Jun, he did not dare to have any other thoughts or actions.

    This time Ha Gang learned that the leader of the Zhao army, King Zhao, had personally appeared in the Landu tribe and was in a stalemate with Xue Nie Khan's forward army.  Immediately afterwards, he received a military order from King Zhao, asking him to immediately advance northward, with the intention of marching north to attack Xue Nie Khan's rear in order to contain the Turkic army three hundred miles away.

    After getting the news, Ha Gang had his own thoughts.  After he attached himself to the Zhao army, he left spies in various tribes to collect information.  King Zhao personally visited the Landu tribe, and he naturally found out the information about the confrontation with the enemy.  At the same time, he also knew that when King Zhao arrived at the Landu tribe, he did not have many troops. With the first part of the personal guard and the garrison stationed at the Landu tribe, it was only 30,000.  The Turkic camp located dozens of miles away from the Landu tribe had nearly 100,000 Turkic troops.  And at the headquarters three hundred miles away, hundreds of thousands of troops had gathered.

    After learning that there were not many troops around King Zhao, he had his own ideas.  Since King Zhao does not have enough troops around him, if reinforcements do not arrive in time and the Turkic army from the opposite side arrives, will King Zhao be eliminated?  If King Zhao is killed or seriously injured, then no one in the entire north of Zhao can restrain him anymore.  Xiazhou and Bingzhou, aren¡¯t these the racecourses of our nine major tribes?  Like Xue Nie Khan, I did the same.

    King Zhao ordered all major tribes to move north, but the four tribes centered on the Landu tribe needed to send their troops to the Landu tribe.  If he did not go or acted later, when Zhao Jun and the Turkic army were fighting hard, he could win over several other tribal leaders, and he would definitely be able to change the fate of the nine major tribes and more than 30 tribes becoming vassals of Zhao Jun.

    However, Ha Gang did not know that when Zhao Xun moved towards the Landu tribe, Xiazhou's army followed closely and gathered towards the Landu tribe.  And Zhao Jun's rapid march was not something Ha Gang could understand. Therefore, Zhao Xun did not pay attention to the approaching attack of nearly 100,000 Turkic troops on the opposite side.  Of course, it would be another matter if Xue Nie Khan's army came to attack.  But the tens of thousands of troops and more than ten tribes in Bingzhou are not vegetarians.  As long as Xue Nie Khan dared to move even slightly, the army from the north of Bingzhou would rush into the grassland from the flanks and engage in a north-south pincer attack with the Landu tribe.

    After Ha Gang received the military order, while reorganizing the army, he tried every means to delay the action.  Of course, this postponement was for the Zhao Jun supervisor who was placed as the leader of the tribe by Zhao Jun.

    However, it is obvious that the supervisors assigned by Zhao Jun to the Bujia tribe did not care at all. They had other secret tasks, so naturally they would not deliberately ask the tribal guards to do anything. They only needed to check everything.

    However, the next news made Ha Gang feel cold all over.  The nearly 100,000 Turkic troops opposite the Landu tribe did not attack the Landu tribe at all. They simply did not know that the leader of the Zhao army had personally visited the Landu tribe.  Then he got the Xiazhou Zhao army, and the Bingzhou Zhao army was on the move, and they had great intentions of fighting an all-out war with the Turkic army.

    Seeing that Zhao armies from all over the country began to take action, and all major tribes were acting in accordance with King Zhao's military orders, Ha Gang suddenly felt that something was not good, and something was different from what he expected.

    Sure enough, before he could take action, he got the command of the Xiazhou Zhao army commander to personally lead his army hundreds of miles to the north, massacring the Moran tribe and several other large and small tribes, and massacring more than 150,000 people from each tribe.  The tribe calls him the Butcher.

    After the spies reported back, Ha Gang felt chills all over, as if he was in the burning Moran tribe, with the towering Jingguan beside him

    Ha Gang immediately understood that the reason why King Zhao made such a big noise and even exposed the news that he was in the Landu tribe was not really to fight Xue Nie Khan, but to contain Xue Nie Khan's army.  To provide cover for the Zhao army that is deep into the enemy's territory, in order to prevent this Zhao army from being attacked.?Pinch Khan's pursuit.

    After understanding this, Ha Gang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and immediately ordered his subordinates to take active action and follow the military orders of King Zhao without any delay.  But at this time, various ministries received new military orders, asking the soldiers of each ministry to prepare for war, but not to move lightly.  In addition, various garrison envoys went to the Landu tribe to meet with King Zhao.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    "Have all the leaders set off?" Zhao Xun asked quietly.

    "Yes, the leaders of thirty-five small and medium-sized tribes and the guardian envoys of the eight major tribes are all coming here." Wei Chen reported back.

    "Did we investigate clearly the actions of the leaders of the major tribes during this operation?"

    "Reporting to my lord, here are the results of the investigation. Among the eight major tribes, the Bujia tribe moved slowly and deliberately slowed down its actions. Among the thirty-five tribes, seven tribal leaders did not follow the lord's military orders very well."

    Zhao Xun sneered and said: "It seems that these tribes hope that my king will die at the hands of the Turkic army. I really don't know whether to live or die. Wei Chen, send an order to the guards. When the hands of these seven tribes arrive, they will be killed on the spot."  Kill!"

    "Zhang Yuanjing, immediately rearrange the leaders of the seven tribes. This time, we need obedient people to serve as leaders. This is an important position. Anyone who is disobedient will be killed without mercy!"

    When Ha just arrived at the Landu Tribe, he saw the Zhao army deployed on the Landu Tribe's stronghold. The cold-gleaming weapons and the armor emitting such awe-inspiring light made him squint his eyes.

    After entering the walled city, he was shocked by what he saw in front of him.  On the tall flagpole, hung the heads of seven tribal leaders.  Those wide eyes seemed to be telling his fear.  He basically knew all the seven tribal leaders. When they discussed together in the past, they also expressed their dissatisfaction with Zhao Jun.  I just didn't expect that now

    "The guardian envoy of Bujia tribe?" As soon as he entered the city gate, Ha Gang, who was stunned by the scene in front of him, was awakened by a cold shout.

    "Exactly!" Ha Gang saw a group of Zhao soldiers appearing in front of him.

    "Let's go, all the major tribes are here, you are the last one!" the Zhao army officer said coldly.

    "Excuse me, is thiswhat is going on?" Ha Gang pointed to the seven hanging heads and asked with a hint of confusion.

    The Zhao Jun officer glanced at Ha Gang with an inexplicable look and said coldly: "These seven heads must be familiar to the Guardian Envoy. They are the seven tribes among the thirty-five tribes in the entire Xiazhou and northern Bingzhou.  Leader. These people should have been killed when our army attacked north, but our Lord was merciful and spared their lives, and arranged for them to live under the wings of our Zhao army. However, they ignored me during this operation.  My lord has ordered the army to delay the military affairs and kill him as a warning to those who have evil intentions." After saying this, he also deliberately glanced at Ha Gang.

    Ha Gang was so shocked by Officer Zhao Jun¡¯s words that he trembled and didn¡¯t pay attention to the other person¡¯s expression at all.  But he understood that the other person's words were meant for him, and he suddenly felt a slight sweat on his forehead.

    A moment later, the Zhao army officers took Ha Gang to the temporary residence of King Zhao.

    "Your Majesty, the guard envoy, wait a moment, I will go and report it right away!" Officer Zhao Jun said quietly, then entered the house and went to report it.  Ha Gang, on the other hand, looked at the sergeant in front of the mansion and trembled slightly.  At this moment, he realized that he and Zhao Jun were not on the same level at all.

    "My lord, the guardian envoy of the Nabujia tribe has arrived." Wei Chen said in a deep voice when he returned to the house.

    Zhang Yuanjing smiled and said: "How? Can he be shocked by your words?"

    Wei Chen nodded and said: "This leader of the Bujia Tribe, I thought he was very courageous, but now it seems that he is nothing more than that. As soon as the subordinate explained the situation, he started to tremble all over and sweat appeared on his forehead. I guess he is scared now.  Go to hell."

    "Then let him come in! I also want to see what this thoughtful leader is like." Zhao Xun said quietly.

    A moment later, Ha Gang entered the hall.  In the hall, Zhao Xun was sitting high on the main seat with his eyes slightly closed, gazing at the leader of the Bujia tribe who was walking over.

    As soon as he saw the sharp eyes of the young man above the main seat, Ha Gang immediately thought of the seven heads hanging outside, and his eyes widened with anger

    Ha Gang suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

    He walked a few steps quickly, threw himself in front of Zhao Xun, and kissed Zhao Xun's boots.  This is a kind of respectful etiquette for the strong people from the grassland barbarians, which means that they surrender at the feet of the strong people.

    Ha Gang knelt down and said in a deep voice: "Ha Gang wishes His Highness King Zhao good luck and longevity! The Bujia tribe is willing to obey the orders of His Highness King Zhao's army even if they die!"

    Zhao Xun stared at Ha Gang and remained silent.  Ha Gang was kneeling with sweat on his forehead, and he did not dare to raise his head.  He knew that this time?Or leave and continue to serve as the guardian of the tribe, or be like the seven tribal leaders, with their heads hung on the flagpole, it depends now.

    Halfway through, Zhao Xun smiled softly and helped Ha Gang up with his hands.  He said in a deep voice: "That's very good! You are a guard envoy conferred by my king, and you represent the will of our Zhao army. In the past few days, the king of Japan ordered all the ministries to take action, but some tribal leaders had evil intentions and delayed the military order. I, the king, all  Kill them. The heads of the seven tribal leaders are hung on the flagpole of the school grounds to warn the tribes."

    "Some people say, Ha Gang, you are also delaying my military orders. I don't want to believe other people's lies. However, I can't let others doubt me for no reason. Therefore, I have to make some arrangements. I don't know what you want.  ? I will never forget anyone who is loyal to me, and it is not impossible to be knighted in the future. "

    Between the words, the meaning to be expressed is obvious.  Since you are willing to obey my orders, then I will make some arrangements and you must comply.  Otherwise, those seven people are your role models.  Intimidating and coaxing, Jinha Gang was frightened.

    At this moment, in this situation, what else can he say?  reject?  Ha Gang believed that as long as he dared to refuse, he would immediately stand up with swords.

    "The Bujia tribe is already a tribe under the command of King Zhao. King Zhao has given orders, and Ha Gang must not dare to obey them!" Ha Gang replied in a deep voice with bitterness in his heart.

    "Very good, I heard that your sergeants are even strong. Therefore, I will send a group of officers to join your army to teach them. I hope they can become stronger under the guidance of our army."

    Ha Gang was shocked and suddenly felt despair.  He understood that if these thousand people joined his 30,000 army, the 30,000 standing army that existed according to Zhao Jun's will would have nothing to do with him.  But at this moment, he could no longer refuse.

    "Ha Gang obeys the order!"

    Zhao Xun turned to Li Chenfeng and said: "General Li, immediately send a thousand elite cavalry to join the Bujia tribe's standing army for strict training!"

    Li Chenfeng said with a happy face: "Don't worry, Lord, everything will be fine!"
