What?
Hand over the troops?
Timur was stunned for a moment.
Without his troops, he would be even more at the mercy of King Zhelan in the future.
However, the wolf tooth token was like a mountain pressing down on one's head.
If he does not obey the order, he will become an enemy of King Zhelan.
The price of rebellion is horribly high!
With only 800 cavalrymen, Timur was no match for King Zhelan who had an army of 10,000 cavalrymen.
In addition, there are aquatic and grassland areas and thousands of tribesmen beside Canglang Lake.
"Huyan Gu, you must have falsely conveyed the king's orders! How could the king possibly ask me to hand over my troops? I want to see the king now!"
Timur made up his mind and could only act stupid and confused.
"Timur, are you going to disobey orders? Come, take him down!"
This time, Huyan Gu wanted to take this opportunity to trample Timur under his feet.
Suddenly, the people who came with Huyan Gu rushed up.
"Who among you dares to touch our Captain?" Several bronze-armored Tartars under Timur were unwilling to be outdone and stood in front.
"Are you planning to rebel as well?" Huyan Gu shouted. "If you don't think about yourselves, you should at least think about the people around Canglang Lake."
"Today I will only capture Timur, and your tribe will not suffer any loss!"
"But if you dare to follow Timur in disobeying his orders, your people and the land where you graze your sheep will be divided up by other tribes from now on!"
Huyan Gu spoke in a very calm tone.
But the threat contained in the calmness was as heavy as a mountain, striking directly into the hearts of Timur's men present.
"You guys retreat! This situation is all my fault!"
Seeing his men being controlled by Huyan Gu with just one sentence, Timur sighed, "Huyan Gu, just arrest me, don't make things difficult for my men and my tribe."
"It should have been done long ago!"
Huyan Gu waved his hand, and the people behind him rushed forward, controlled Timur, and took him away.
After Timur was under control, his men dared not move. Huyan Gu cried out in pleasure, and all the frustration he had felt before at the hands of Timur was swept away.
"From now on, you will obey my orders! Anyone who disobeys will be executed!" Hu Yan Gu shouted, "Do you understand?"
Timur's men were leaderless and could only swallow their anger. They replied reluctantly and stammered, "I understand..."
"Well, tomorrow morning, hold your troops in check and don't act rashly. I want to talk to him!"
What!
......
The second day.
Zhao Muyun, who was in the earthen village on the hillside, naturally had no idea that things had turned upside down in Shuozhou.
Lord Fan, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, was dismissed from his post and taken back to the capital last night. Now it is Pei Lun, the governor of Hedong Province, who is in charge of the war in Shuozhou.
He also didn't know that changes had also taken place in Timur's tent at the foot of the mountain.
It seemed that a group of Tartars came from the foot of the mountain last night, and then there was a vague quarrel in the camp, and then it calmed down.
However, he didn't care about these movements.
All they had to do was follow what he asked Fan Tong to convey to Fan Nan, and stay here for three days while Fan Nan led the army to counterattack.
Besides, a day has already passed.
Now the trenches in the mountains have been dug all over the ground, two hundred compound bows have been made, and the arrows captured from the Tatar tribes along the way are also very sufficient.
Even if Timur's cavalry came to attack, they would not be afraid at all without the threat of hostages.
Just as Zhao Muyun finished his meal and was about to call Han Zhong, Tang Yanhai, Lin Feng, Shi Gang, Huan Naxue and others to discuss today's important matters, Wang Tiezhu rushed in from outside:
"Brother Zhao, the Tartars are coming!"
"What? The Tartars are so stubborn they're planning a head-on attack?" Zhao Muyun suddenly straightened up and shouted, "Everyone, get to your positions quickly! I'm going to make sure these Tartars never return!"
"No, Brother Zhao, only four or five Tartars came and said they wanted to talk to us!" Wang Tiezhu scratched his head.
ah!
"Can you explain yourself more clearly, kid?" Zhao Muyun was stunned for a moment, then grinned. "The Tartars actually want to negotiate with me? Okay, then let's go and talk!"
"Go and reply first and have their people wait in the valley!"
Wang Tiezhu took the order and left. Zhao Muyun put on a set of captured Tartar bronze armor and covered it with a robe.
It is easy to dodge a spear, but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark.
If the other party has bad intentions under the guise of negotiation, it's always better to be more careful!
Han Zhong, Tang Yanhai and others rushed over after hearing the news. Zhao Muyun asked Huan Naxue and Lin Feng to follow them, while the others stayed at their posts and remained vigilant.
As soon as he walked out of the earthen village, he thought about it and took Mahmud with him.
When Mahmud heard that he was going to negotiate, he had already changed into Dayin clothes and found a headscarf to cover his face.
Zhao Muyun looked at him, smiled slightly, and didn't say anything to him.
The four of them walked quickly through the half-man-high trench and arrived at the river valley.
"Boss Zhao, it's them!"
Wang Tiezhu had been waiting here for a long time. When he saw Zhao Muyun and his group arriving, he immediately pointed to the opposite side.
There was only a civilian Tartar without armor standing on one side of the valley with four or five followers.
No more Tartar troops were seen within a few miles.
Seeing Zhao Muyun and others coming, the civil servant stepped forward and shouted from a distance of a hundred steps:
"The person opposite is Zhao Muyun, the sergeant of Dayin's border army. I am Hu Yangu, the prime minister under the command of King Zhelan!"
Of course, Huyan Gu didn't dare to get too close. Since Zhao Muyun was able to capture King Zhelan's family, he might also attack him.
Before Zhao Muyun could speak, Mahmud hurriedly whispered, "Huyan Gu? Why is he here? It's clearly Timur's troops at the foot of the mountain!"
