Chapter 197 Rumors Spread



What does three hundred thousand mean? No one understands it more deeply than King Zhelan and his men.

The southern foot of the Daqing Mountains, the territory where King Zhelan started his career, Xichuan grassland, Shulechuan, Wuhai, and Yunzhou, also supported a population of more than 100,000 in the Northern Di.

One man is drawn from every ten men, so King Zhelan has no more than 10,000 cavalry.

But relying on these more than 10,000 cavalrymen, he became the object of the Northern Di Chanyu's efforts to win over, and also became an existence that Dayin feared.

Ten thousand cavalrymen, what a concept! Only when you actually face tens of thousands of cavalrymen rushing towards you, can you experience the thrilling shock.

King Zhelan had 10,000 soldiers under his command, so the Chanyu of Beidi quickly sent people to appoint him as King Zhelan and gave him the grassland south of the Daqing Mountains.

However, for King Zhelan, this was the territory he had snatched from Dayin, but it was given to him by the Northern Di Chanyu in the name of a gift.

Although he felt a little aggrieved, he chose to endure it.

Because this is the fertile land between the desert and Dayin, and it is also a buffer zone.

King Zhelan survived here for many years with the help of 100,000 tribesmen and 10,000 cavalrymen.

He also thought about growing stronger and expanding his territory!

However, the harsh living environment of the grassland means that the population size can only be this small.

When King Zhelan heard Huyan Gu say that the number of rebels in Dayin Henei Road had reached 300,000, he was shocked.

I was stunned and envious at the same time.

If he had an army of 300,000, he would probably have directly asked the Chanyu of Beidi to give up his throne.

"Then...then Prime Minister Wang, what does the presence of so many rebels in Dayin Pass have to do with us?"

King Zhelan was so shocked by the number of 300,000 troops that he even spoke with some lack of confidence.

"Your Majesty, the rebels in Dayinguan Road are causing chaos and their power is growing stronger and stronger. This is of course a good thing for us!"

"The Dayin court must have been preoccupied with suppressing the rebellion, putting us second. As a result, Zhao Muyun and I were confronted in Weizhou, and we ran into problems with the supply of food, supplies, and troops."

"Also, I've already sent people to try to contact the rebel leader in Guannei Road. If necessary, we can cooperate together!"

After hearing Huyan Gu's words, King Zhelan's eyes lit up.

Compared with the 300,000 rebels and his 10,000 Tatars who were invading the northern border, their nature was completely different for the Dayin court.

King Zhelan invaded the border for money, people and women, while the rebels in Xiazhou wanted to overthrow the rule of Emperor Dayin.

If Emperor Dayin had a clear mind, he would know where the focus lies.

"That's fine. As long as it's beneficial to us, we can give it a try! In other words, the more chaos there is in Dayin, the better it will be for us."

King Zhelan was no fool and quickly figured out the key point.

As long as the internal rebellion in Dayin exists, the invasion of these Northern Di people will not be a priority in the eyes of the Dayin emperor and court officials.

Zhao Muyun only has so many soldiers and horses in Feihukou, that’s all he has!

As long as we wait for the Northern Di Chanyu to receive the news and send more troops to help, Weizhou will be almost certain to be captured.

King Zhelan was not worried that the Northern Di Chanyu would not send troops.

Because what did Jochi and his five thousand guards mean to the Northern Di Chanyu.

He wanted to test the strength of Dayin's army, but he died while trying. The Chanyu of Beidi must have been unwilling to accept this.

"Yes, my king, you just wait for my good news!"

Seeing that the effect had been achieved, Huyan Gu immediately gave King Zhelan a reassurance.

"Also, I will send people to Jinyang and Dayin's capital to spread rumors, saying that Zhao Muyun is hoarding troops and nurturing the enemy. He is also secretly meeting with the rebels and wants to seize control of Shuozhou!"

Prince Zhelan was stunned when he heard this: "Will Emperor Dayin believe this?"

"It doesn't matter whether the Emperor of Dayin believes it or not, but Zhao Muyun rose from a Dunjun to a captain in just six months. He must have many political enemies."

"They don't care whether Zhao Muyun can fight or not. They see that Zhao Muyun is too popular and affects their interests. They will definitely add fuel to the fire and make the Emperor of Dayin suspicious."

Huyan Gu was full of confidence, and his words convinced King Zhelan.

"Prime Minister Wang, I was reckless before and shouldn't blame you like this!"

"You are my most trusted minister. From now on, I will rely on you even more."

It was not known whether what King Zhelan said was true or false, but seeing how sincere and heartfelt he spoke, Huyan Gu's eyes suddenly turned red and he was speechless.

The other officials were full of envy, and Pushan Tiecong was jealous but also secretly blamed himself.

Why am I not as smart as Huyan Gu?

It seems that I will have to avoid the enemy's attack for the time being, wait for an opportunity to kill the enemy and make meritorious service, and then regain the favor of King Zhelan.

However, King Zhelan's tent was soon filled with joyful laughter.

The strategy and action direction that Huyan Gu set for King Zhelan took all aspects into consideration and was very suitable for King Zhelan's current predicament.

He kept his troops in place and continued to besiege Weizhou, observing the changes in the direction of Feihukou. While contacting the rebels, he also spread rumors about Zhao Muyun.

It’s really a multi-faceted strategy. I don’t know how Zhao Muyun will react.

.....

At this moment, in a room of a very luxurious mansion in Jinyang City, Hedong Road.

"Feng Tiangan, what's wrong with your Xuetangzhai? More than 20 people can't even take down one person, and you still have the nerve to call yourself the number one assassin organization in Dayin!"

Zhou Yuan, with a gloomy face, pointed at an old man in a green robe and cursed.

The old man in green was dressed neatly, with his nails trimmed neatly. He looked like a very particular person.
