Chapter 94 Meng Huo
Outside Zhuti City, a group of people from Zhurong Cave gathered from all directions. According to their original plans, they crossed mountains and ridges and bypassed the levels in order to catch Zhuti off guard. Who knew that before they gathered, Zhuti shrank his defense line and took back all the people scattered outside. The four gates were closed, so that their plan to attack was already dashed before it even began.
"We..." Outside Zhuti City, a thin man looked at the closed gate of Zhuti City, with a confused look on his face: "Why are you running here over mountains and rivers?"
"The guy from Bagan didn't come." Aside him, a burly man said with regret: "This kid looks extremely cunning on weekdays. It seems that he has leaked the news."
"What's the use of saying this now?" The strong man, the current Zhurong Cave Master, looked at the burly man with a depressed look on his face and said, "Meng Huo, I trust you and promised to join you. For this reason, I even killed..."
"Zhurong!" Meng Huo turned his head, and a look of tyranny appeared in his eyes: "Don't say anything you shouldn't say!"
"Hmph!" Zhu Rong Cave Master snorted in a muffled voice: "What should I do now?"
"What else can I do? Since Guan Ping has discovered us, I can only attack." Meng Huo looked at the master of Zhurong Cave and said, "I heard that there are many naturalized Zhurong Cave tribes in Zhuti City. If they can help us, they can take down Zhuti without even having a soldier!"
"How is this possible?" Zhu Rong Cave Master looked at Meng Huo with contempt: "You haven't seen my sister's temper before. Now that I see her, it would be strange if I don't kill us. Or can you beat her?"
When Meng Huo heard this, his face turned dark. This was the thing he was most reluctant to mention. In order to gain the support of the Zhurong clan and increase his prestige in the Thirty-Six Caves, he wanted to marry Zhurong after two years of kissing him. Zhurong did not refuse, but made a request that as her man, he must be able to defeat her.
Meng Huo was five years older than Zhurong and was also a famous warrior of the Yi people. Before the fight, Meng Huo was full of confidence, but the result was heartbreaking. An 18-year-old man at that time was tortured by the thirteen-year-old Zhurong, almost causing psychological shadows.
Over the past two years, he has practiced martial arts day and night and worked hard to avenge his previous shame. Now he is more than 10% stronger than two years ago, but when facing Zhurong, he is still instinctively scared and never thought that there would be such a tough woman in this world.
"I don't mean that!" Meng Huo sat on the ground and looked at Zhuticheng in the distance and said, "We first called outside Zhuticheng, and then ordered people to shout loudly outside the city, and to call the Zhurong clans in the city to take action. In the words of the Han people, this is called internal and external cooperation, and it will definitely be able to break Zhuticheng in one fell swoop."
"I said why do you always want to break through Zhuti?" The Lord of Zhurong Cave said in confusion. It was just a place of a vassal state, three or four counties.
"You can't understand my mood." Meng Huo shook his head in pain when he heard this. The woman who should belong to him was just because someone else looked at her... Why didn't he think of this method at the beginning?
"For my sister?" asked the Lord of Zhurong Cave.
"How is it possible? I want to be the man of the Barbarian King!" Meng Huo snorted coldly, "Don't look at Zhu Ti. Look at Guan Ping's various actions over the past year, it is obvious that he wants to swallow the thirty-six caves in the southern border step by step, so that we can be their slaves and vassals."
"Is it over?" Zhurong Cave Master frowned and said, "Just rely on him?"
Guan Ping's martial arts are indeed amazing. In this southern border, no one can fight against Wu Tugu, except the number one warrior of the Ugo Kingdom. Otherwise, how could his sister who was above the top easily marry a Han man?
But that's all. Guan Ping was a Han man after all. Because of his sister's relationship, he moved some of his tribesmen to Zhuti to help him gain a foothold. At the same time, he was worried that Zhurong would be bullied. The original intention of these Zhurong clans to move into Zhuti was actually Zhurong's family. If he wanted to annex the 36 caves in the southern border, among which the 36 caves were also the Yi people and the Ugo kingdom. If all gathered together, there would be 100,000 soldiers. Guan Ping could only rely on Zhuti's county, and it was impossible for him to annex the 36 caves in the southern border.
Of course, there are mutual interests between the thirty-six caves. Even if the unity comes, these tribes are scattered among the 100,000 mountains, and it is impossible to gather them all.
"It is naturally impossible with him, but the annexation between countries is not just a sword or a gun." Meng Huo shook his head and sighed: "You won't understand the power of the Han people. If you get too close to them, you may be grateful to them even if you die. This is called "no bloodshed."
Meng Huo is a major Yi tribe and lives next to the Han people all year round. Meng Huo has been influenced by Han culture since he was a child, but he has also heard many legends, so he is very clear that the terrible thing about the Han people is not the advantage of war.
"So powerful?" The master of Zhurong Cave said in surprise.
"It's only more powerful than this!" Meng Huo nodded and said, "So this time, it was not only for Zhu Ti himself, but also for the Han people's thoughts."
"Then Jianning and the prefects of Yongchang counties are also officials of the Han family?" The master of Zhurong Cave frowned and said, "Don't you Yi people have a close relationship with them?"
"That's called exchange of interests. They provide us with food, we stabilize the two counties for them, and help them in public security." Meng Hu waved impatiently and said, "Say all these useless words, should you fight or not?"
The master of Zhurong Cave smiled and said, "It's all here. Do we have a way out? Fight! Why not fight? I heard that Zhuti has achieved great success this year. Since I married my princess of Zhurong clan, I should naturally make some contributions to my Zhurong clan!"
The two of them immediately agreed on a plan and ordered people to gather outside Zhuti City. They began to order people to shout at the city from everywhere, calling on the soldiers of Zhurong clan in the city to kill people.
"Who is your brother?" On the city tower, Ye Zhao, Guan Yu, and Dian Wei stood at the top of the city wall. Behind him, Guan Ping and Zhu Rong were lined up on both sides, pointing at the crowd and frowned and asked.
"It's that person, thin and wearing tiger skin!!" Zhu Rong said gritting his teeth. Although there was no direct evidence, there was no evidence in this wilderness. Bagan's words may not be completely correct, but the death of the old cave owner must have nothing to do with his damn brother.
Ye Zhao's eyes flickered, and he was surfing a group of Southern Barbarians. Finally, he saw the new Zhurong Cave Master, turned his head to Guan Yu and said, "Yuan Chang, how about it?"
"Don't worry, Marquis Ye, you only need a fast horse to kill the head of the thief!" Guan Yu stepped out of the line and said in a deep voice.
"Out of the city!"
