"Haha, the Chinu clan is the new generation of overlords rising from the northern grasslands. How could I not know this? What's the matter? You and Chinu..."
"Hahahaha, after the Chinu Clan wiped out the Yun Clan, they unified all the tribes on the grasslands. Now, they are even showing signs of breaking away from the Northern Wei Dynasty's control. After the three Baili brothers and Qian Yeming formed an alliance, the people's livelihood will definitely be guaranteed.
Nanyue has so much surplus food every year that it can't finish it all. Instead of selling it to an enemy like Brother Yelu, it would be better to sell half of it to Northern Wei. This would not only please the brother-in-law, but also gain a long-term ally.
If the people of Northern Wei were left without food and clothing during the winter, would the Baili brothers, with their skills, not take action against the Chinu clan and allow them to dominate the country? Obviously, this was impossible.
So the enemy of my enemy is my friend! The first thing I did after arriving in Lizhou was to send envoys to the northern grasslands to form an alliance with the Chinu tribe.
"Now that the Chinu have unified the northern grasslands, if the Northern Wei were to make a move against Xiliang, the Chinu would immediately march south and attack the Northern Wei capital. "Brother Yelu, do you want to know how many troops the Chinu have now?" Qian Yeyao asked mysteriously.
"How much?" Yelu Boyan's eyes lit up. He was really interested in this.
"1.5 million!"
"What?" Yelu Boyan was shocked by the data.
"We only have 2 million soldiers in Xiliang right now, and a mere Chi Nu has already reached 1.5 million?"
"Hahaha, isn't it?!" Qian Yeyao said with a smile: "The Northern Wei and the grasslands already have a large population. The 1.5 million grassland soldiers are more than the 2 million troops of Dongyang and Dongxiang.
Three months ago, I made an agreement with the chief of the Chi Nu tribe, Chi Nu Batian. Once I send troops to raid the capital, the chief of the Chi Nu tribe will also lead 1.5 million cavalry to attack the Northern Wei Dynasty and strive to occupy half of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
I heard that Baili Han and Baili Feng haven't returned to the court at all. If my guess is correct, they are probably in Nanyue now. The Northern Wei only has Baili Yi now, and even though he is a genius, he would be overwhelmed by such a sudden attack.
So, Brother Yelu, don't worry. You have nothing to worry about. Furthermore, I've reached an agreement with Dongxiang Crown Prince Dongfang Ming. When the time comes, we'll attack from both east and west. Even if Qian Yeming has an army he can mobilize, it'll be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot."
After hearing the first half of Qian Yeyao's words, Yelu Boyang was still feeling happy, but the second half instantly made him unhappy.
"Haha, now that the Chinu clan is helping you contain the Northern Wei, and Prince Dongxiang has sent troops to help you, what else do you want me to do? One hundred thousand troops are enough. If you attack, Dongfang Ming will send troops to attack from the east, and you can also form a pincer attack. I'd better not go. That way, if His Royal Highness Prince Li becomes emperor, he won't be branded as a traitor."
Damn it, you called me, called Dongfang Ming, and even let Chi Nu get involved. We helped you defeat Qian Yeming, and you made us fight each other, and then you swallowed us both. The Northern Wei Dynasty also didn't dare to send troops to deal with you because of the heavy losses you suffered. How can you swallow up the four corners by yourself?
When Qian Yeyao heard this, he instantly became anxious.
"Brother Yelu, I can't do this without your help!
