Chapter 577 Dilemma



And he, Tuoba Duan, is also the most powerful king in the whole world!

Tuoba Duan felt suffocated and his chest was heaving up and down.

He smashed his clenched fist on the table next to him, causing the teacup on the table to shake a few times before it fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

The tea spilled all over the floor, and the milky white porcelain fragments looked dazzling under the sunlight.

The people below were silent as a mouse, not daring to say anything, and hurried out to pass on the message.

After hearing this reply, the people waiting outside looked at each other and couldn't help but curl their lips.

Especially when he heard the ping-pong sounds of things being thrown to the ground, he sneered even more disdainfully.

"Feeling unwell? I think the king is in good spirits, but he just doesn't want to see us!"

"It's not that he doesn't want to, I think he has no face to show it!" Tuyuhun Junhong, the chief of the Tuyuhun tribe, shouted, "We in Xijinyun have always valued tribal unity and harmony, and have never had any internal strife. Now, because of some magic water, they are killing each other and so many soldiers have died. This is a great shame for Xijinyun, a great shame!"

"Not only that, but we also lost Qingshan County in vain. That was the territory of our Qifu tribe. Now that it has been occupied by the Qin State, how can our Qifu tribe have face in the future!" The leader of the Qifu tribe, Si Yindu, also echoed.

"When the king wanted to attack Daqin, he promised us other tribes that he would conquer the entire Daqin within a year. But now more than half a year has passed, not only has there been no progress, but the entire Xijinyun Kingdom has been dragged down and the people are living in misery."

Tuyuhun Junhong shouted, "I don't think the king had any careful plan at the beginning. He just thought about it and pushed the lives of so many people and soldiers into the fire pit!"

"I think it's better not to have such a king!" Tuyuhun Junhong added.

The Tuyuhun tribe was originally the smallest tribe in the entire Xijinyun Kingdom, but because of the harsh climatic conditions where they lived, the people of the Tuyuhun tribe were stronger than those of other tribes.

Therefore, there were a large number of soldiers from the Tuyuhun tribe in the army of the Western Jinyun Kingdom.

It is precisely because of this that Tuyuhun Junhong felt his blood boiling when he thought of the men of the Tuyuhun tribe being brutally killed by their own people.

Angry in his heart, Junhong of the Tuyuhun tribe spoke without any scruples and his voice was very loud.

The others were startled at first and looked inside uneasily, but then they nodded slightly, thinking that what Junhong of the Tuyuhun tribe said was true.

It would be better if we don’t have this ruler.

If Tuoba Duan had not come to power, and the entire Xijinyun Kingdom was governed by Tuoba Yu, the current situation of Xijinyun Kingdom would be very different.

"At this age, you are still so brave and fearless. You dare to say anything." Murong Jian walked over with his hands behind his back and said with a smile.

The Murong clan was the second largest clan in the Western Jinyun Kingdom after the Tuoba clan. Murong Jian, as the leader of the Murong clan, was a decent person with a high reputation.

As soon as Murong Jian appeared, the others all bowed and saluted.

After standing up, Tuyuhun Junhong curled his lips and said, "I am just like this. Now I am speaking up for the men of the Tuyuhun tribe. If the king thinks that what I said is wrong and doesn't like me, just kill me!"

"You are the leader of the Tuyuhun tribe, and you care about the Tuyuhun tribe wholeheartedly. If you die, who will protect your tribe and make profits for your tribe?"

Murong Jian smiled and looked at everyone present meaningfully, "I just heard from the people here that you wanted to see the king, but the king happened to be ill at the moment and could not summon you."

"It's useless for you guys to wait here. I have asked someone to prepare some wine and meat outside. Why don't you go with me to have a few drinks and chat about what needs to be discussed."

Things to talk about...

Several people looked at each other.

The most important thing to talk about right now is the future of Xijinyun Kingdom.

The Murong clan was the first major clan, after the Hou clan, to publicly support welcoming Tuoba Yu back to the Western Jinyun Kingdom. It went without saying what he wanted to talk about at this time.

Several people hesitated for a moment.

But Tuguhun Junhong raised his foot first, "It's just right, I haven't had lunch yet, I'm really hungry, let's go have some wine and meat together, and have a good time!"

Tuyuhun Junhong left, and the others each started to think about their own little ideas.

At present, Tuoba Duan's prestige in the hearts of the people is getting lower and lower, and if Tuoba Yu has the support of the Murong clan and the Tuyuhun tribe...

"Wait a moment while we..."

The remaining few people also followed.

Tuoba Duan inside was relieved when he heard from his subordinates that everyone had left. But when he heard that those people had followed Murong Jian, he was so angry that he smashed a few teacups again.

"Someone come!" Tuoba Duan roared, "Go and ask the great wizard to come over!"

We must find a way to resolve this predicament as soon as possible... - After taking Qingshan County, Lu Yuntao led his troops to launch a surprise attack. Taking advantage of the fact that the Xijinyun army that occupied Zhuchuan County had suffered heavy casualties and was very resistant to the holy water, he took one day and one night to recapture Zhuchuan County and drove the Xijinyun army back.

Lu Yuncheng took the opportunity to lead his troops to attack Xuefeng County.

Because the holy water caused great panic throughout the Xijinyun Kingdom, everyone was very resistant to the holy water at this time and dared not take it anymore, let alone let others take it.

This time, the so-called magic soldiers did not appear in the Xuefeng County’s garrison troops.

Lu Yuncheng was originally nervous about this, but later on his confidence grew, and the soldiers under him were also encouraged.

The defending troops of Xuefeng County suffered successive defeats and finally abandoned the city and fled after two days.

At this point, the Qin State completely recovered Xuefeng County.

When the good news came, everyone was delighted.

"We still have two cities left, and we can recover all the lost territory." Duke Dingguo breathed a sigh of relief.

Given his current age and condition, others would say he is still strong but he knows very well that he is just a bag of old bones.

At this age, if I don’t see with my own eyes the recovery of all the cities occupied by the enemy, I’m afraid I won’t be able to close my eyes until I die.

"Today, Murong Jian, the leader of the Murong clan, sent someone to deliver a message saying that the leader of the Tuyuhun clan had reached an agreement with him and secretly ordered the Tuyuhun general stationed in Qingming County not to actively fight."

Tuoba Yu said, "When the time is agreed upon and the Duke sends his men there, both sides will pretend to be friends, and General Tuyuhun will lead his army to leave and give up the city."

In this way, only Yangchun Prefecture is left.
