silence!
A silence that makes it hard to breathe.
When the new Chanyu of Yiqiu, Limu Kunnan, heard Gui Bi's shameless words, his face suddenly turned gloomy.
As the saying goes, never hit a smiling person. He treated Gui Bi with great kindness. Not only did he provide him with delicious food and wine, he also gave Gui Bi several maids who were beautiful, talented and charming.
The results of it?
Gui Bi asked his officers and soldiers to be his dogs right in front of them.
It's too much to bully others, it's simply too much to bully others.
Do you really think that his Yiqu tribe is a soft persimmon that can be easily bullied?
Let alone a mere Self-cultivation Realm, even the leader of the coalition forces, Cheng Youwei, who was at the State Governing Realm, would not dare to speak to him so bluntly.
As a dog?
Or be exterminated?
"Hahahaha!"
Looking at Gui Bi, who had a proud face and looked down upon him, Limu Kunnan smiled.
Even a clay man can get angry. What's more, as the new Chanyu of the Yiqiu tribe, he had just eliminated dissidents and was in high spirits when suddenly an envoy from Yancheng appeared and treated him like a dog in front of his subordinates.
When did his Yiqiu tribe become so weak as to serve as dogs for others?
"Hahahaha!"
"Hahahaha!"
Limu Kunnan laughed so loudly that he was bent forward and backward, and tears were almost coming out of his eyes.
"Angel!"
"You want my Yiqu tribe to serve as dogs for you in Yancheng?"
"Hahaha!"
Limu Kunnan laughed loudly and slammed the table. He stretched out his hand, grabbed Gui Bi's chest and lifted him up.
"I call you an angel, do you really think you are an angel?"
"How can a small Yancheng city have the right to let Yiqu serve as your dog, just relying on the thousands of new soldiers in Yancheng and the more than one hundred veterans of the Zhenbei Army?
Or, do you think that just because there is an old immortal who governs the country in Yancheng, you can threaten my Yiqu tribe?"
"You want my Yiqu tribe to serve you as dogs? Do you think you deserve it? You probably don't know that my 300,000-strong coalition army from the northern border has already moved south. In less than a week, we will make your Yancheng a thing of the past and bury it completely in this desolate northern border."
"Yancheng is so vulnerable. The little envoys from Yancheng really don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. They even want to blackmail my Yiqu tribe and make my Yiqu tribe serve you as dogs."
"If I don't chop off your head today and feed it to the foxes and dogs in the desert, I will not be able to appease the anger of my people."
"Come here, lock up this two-legged sheep for me, and tell my tribesmen that I will cook the two-legged sheep in Yancheng in five cauldrons in three days to commemorate the tribesmen who died in the riot!"
"Yes, Shanyu!"
After hearing the two options given by Gui Bi, Limu Kunnan completely gave up all his previous thoughts.
If the envoys from Yancheng came to discuss other matters, such as peace talks, or even asking the Yiqiu tribe to compensate Yancheng for a certain amount of money and losses, or even compensate Yancheng with some war horses, Limu Kunnan might agree to it even if he had to hold his nose for the sake of Yancheng's governor Guo Xiaoding's face.
It is still worth using some supplies in exchange for the possibility of not being dragged down by Guo Xiaoding as a scapegoat.
But being a dog, especially being a dog for Yancheng, is absolutely impossible.
Even if Limu Kunnan didn't care about his face and was willing to kneel down and be a dog for Yancheng, the soldiers under his command would never agree.
Even if all the soldiers under his command were willing to kneel down and serve Yancheng as dogs, the coalition forces in the northern border would never agree.
The Yiqiu tribe had a large population, and many of its members had intermarriage and communications with other tribes.
Today, Talimu Kunnan agreed to be a dog for Yancheng. Tomorrow, his head will be hung on the city wall as a warning to others.
After receiving the order from the Chanyu, several guards of the Yiqu tribe immediately took up their weapons and pinned down Gui Bi, who was thrown aside by Limu Kunnan. Seeing Limu Kunnan's face change drastically and directly rejecting his proposal, Gui Bi looked indifferent and was not surprised at all.
"I think it's normal that Shan Yu's eyesight is a little blurry and he can't see the situation clearly."
"Now that your coalition forces have moved south, Yancheng will not be able to hold out for a week. After a week, Yancheng will be destroyed and become a wreck in the vast northern border, buried by the desert."
"But, so what?"
"So what if Yancheng was breached? Yancheng is just a small city. Our Yancheng soldiers didn't set up formations in Yancheng, nor do we have any defensive Mohist mechanical techniques. It's normal that we can't stop your coalition forces."
"It is only a matter of time before Yancheng is forced to surrender. There is no need to threaten the Chanyu!"
"but"
At this point, Gui Bi stared at the Chanyu of Yiqiu and suddenly sneered:
“In Yancheng, everyone is a soldier, not a commoner from the Imperial Shang Dynasty.
Shanyu, you should know what this means!
This means that every soldier in Yancheng will not fear death and will fight with you to the end."
"Besides!"
"Yancheng is not a place that must be fought for by military strategists. What's the harm in giving it to you? You can capture Yancheng, but can you kill all the soldiers in Yancheng?"
At this point, Gui Bi shrugged his shoulders and said, "My Yancheng soldiers can be divided into small groups and appear anywhere in the northern border. We can fight to support the war and slowly devour the vitality of your northern border tribes!"
Suddenly, Gui Bi said leisurely: "I will eat the meat of barbarians when I am hungry, and drink the blood of Yiqu when I am thirsty!"
How can you be so ambitious as to eat the meat of barbarians when you are hungry, or drink the blood of Yiqu when you are thirsty?
Hearing Gui Bi suddenly chant such a poem, Limu Kunnan stared at Gui Bi fiercely. He pointed at Gui Bi with an unbelievable look:
"You, you are not from the Imperial Shang Dynasty!"
"The Imperial Shang Dynasty is a country of etiquette and a kingdom in heaven. How could it possibly have such thoughts?
What's the difference between you and a beast when you behave like this? "
The Imperial Shang Dynasty was a country of etiquette and rituals, which attached great importance to the four dimensions of the country, and rites and music had not yet collapsed.
In such a heavenly kingdom, even the Gongyang School of Confucianism, which had the greatest hatred for the eighteen tribes in the northern border, only advocated the idea of great revenge and advocated that the Imperial Shang Dynasty should remember the nine generations of blood feud.
And what about Gui Bi, who claimed to be an envoy from Yancheng? He actually wrote a poem that was completely contrary to the mainstream ideology of the Shang Dynasty, saying that he would eat the flesh of barbarians when hungry and drink the blood of Yiqu when thirsty.
Eating human flesh is a barbaric behavior.
They were one of the eighteen tribes in the northern border that were called barbarians by the Imperial Shang Dynasty, and they were the ones who practiced cannibalism.
Now, as the eighteen tribes in the northern border are constantly learning the culture and books of the Imperial Shang Dynasty, the practice of cannibalism has gradually been abandoned, and many tribes have long since given up this practice.
When the 18 tribes in the northern border faced the people of the Imperial Shang Dynasty, they either plundered them as slaves, tortured them to death, or chopped off their heads and used them as urinals. As for cannibalism, it was only done in extremely rare cases.
And now, the envoy from Yancheng was so calm and said words so lightly that made Limu Kunnan feel scared.
Cannibalism means that all etiquette no longer exists and all restraints disappear.
Yancheng will use all means and regardless of the consequences to retaliate against the eighteen tribes in the northern border.
Thinking of the riot of the Yiqiu tribe a few days ago and the slaughter of children of his own tribe by the new army of Yancheng, Limu Kunnan suddenly realized that the new army of Yancheng was probably completely different from the soldiers of the Di Shang Dynasty.
The new army of Yancheng absorbed the wildness of the eighteen tribes in their northern border!
"What's the difference between you and the beast?"
“Yes, there is a huge difference!”
Gui Bi said softly, "Beasts hunt because they are hungry. When they are full, they will let their prey go."
"but"
"We will slaughter all the members of your tribe!"
At this point, Gui Bi gently made a gesture to let go: "Kill them all, leave no one alive!"
"You are more cruel than anyone I have ever seen!"
Limu Kunnan looked at Gui Bi deeply and said, "But, just relying on a few threats and a Zhiguo who is about to be buried, you want me to be your dog. This is obviously impossible."
“If I refuse you, I might be targeted by Guo Xiaoding who governs the country.
But if I agree to you, my head will be chopped off tomorrow and hung on the city wall."
"hehe!"
"I understand what you mean."
Gui Bi snapped his fingers, glanced at the soldiers pressing on him, and shrugged:
"I have a piece of news for you. The Tartaq camp of the Sushen tribe has been destroyed by our Yancheng, and their leader was killed by our Yancheng soldiers."
"My Yan City may not be able to fight against the entire barbarian coalition in a short period of time, but my Yan City can concentrate its strength to destroy one of your tribes."
"I, Yancheng, can give Chanyu one day to verify this. If Chanyu still doesn't believe it, or thinks that I, Yancheng, don't have the strength to destroy your tribe, you can give it a try."
"Or maybe."
The map of Yan State is very long.
From being resurrected at the resurrection point guarded by the Yiqu tribe, to using the magical power of [Fake Cauldron Shocking the Lord] to intimidate the Chanyu of the Yiqu tribe into entering the Yiqu tribe camp, to now, Gui Bi has finally revealed his true purpose:
"You can send an elite army to challenge the elite army of Yancheng and see if the elite tribes of Yancheng have the strength to destroy your tribes."
At this point, Gui Bi paused again, glanced at the Yiqu soldiers guarding him, put his hands in his pockets, gently took out a sand map, and threw it to Limu Kunnan.
"There is an elite troop stationed here in Yancheng, with a number of about 200 people."
The sand map is a sketch drawn by Su Shan. The location is not in the direction of the Yiqiu tribe, but near the resurrection pool chosen by Niu Bu when he was promoted to the Qi family realm.
This location is some distance away from Yiqiu, but very close to another tribe.
When Gui Bi and Su Shan discussed the strategy, they both had several goals.
The biggest goal is to incite the Yiqu tribe to rebel and make the Yiqu tribe serve them as dogs.
But this goal is extremely difficult. After discussing it, the two felt that the probability of achieving this goal is basically zero.
So the two of them set some other goals, and the advice Gui Bi just gave to the Yiqiu tribe was one of the other goals.
Let elite players such as Niu Bu form an elite team to fight head-on with the elite soldiers of the barbarians. With Su Shan as the commander and relying on Niu Bu's personal strength, he will forcibly defeat the elite soldiers of the barbarians.
In this way, Su Shan can rely on war to advance to the realm of self-cultivation, and at the same time he can also intimidate the barbarian tribes and let the Yiqiu tribe see some of Yancheng's strength.
As for whether this goal can be achieved, and whether the elite soldiers composed of players can defeat the elite soldiers of the barbarians, neither Su Shan nor Gui Bi will doubt it.
No matter how elite your barbarian soldiers are, can you withstand the bombardment of the infinitely resurrected Niu Bu?
No one knows how terrifying the Qi family is, as they can be resurrected infinitely.
But there is no doubt that in the entire Northern Frontier, except for Yancheng, which can allow the Qi family to be resurrected infinitely and fight, other cities cannot meet such conditions.
You can't have five, six, or even seven or eight people from the Qi family die in one war.
The barbarians would never allow a war to directly wipe out the tribal leaders.
But players don’t have so many concerns.
As a player, Niu Bu wouldn't have any big problems if he died six, seven, eight or nine times.
This purpose was one of Gui Bi's goals in coming to the Yiqu tribe. In addition to helping Su Shan advance to the realm of self-cultivation, Gui Bi also came to investigate the strength of the Yiqu tribe in preparation for destroying the Yiqu tribe.
Gui Bi didn't think that just a few words would make the Yiqu tribe serve Yancheng as dogs.
He came to investigate the strength of the Yiqiu tribe. After King Zhuge arrived with the tiger talisman, he would take the tiger talisman and go to other tribes for formal cooperation and talks.
As for his first target, the Yiqu tribe
Ha ha.
Naturally, they pick on the weak. Among the eighteen tribes in the northern border, only the Yiqiu tribe has a resurrection pool not far from the camp that the barbarians cannot destroy.
In addition, the old Chanyu of the Yiqu tribe had died, the tribe had just been in turmoil, the military morale was unstable, and two high-end Qijiajing fighters had died.
Such a soft persimmon is naturally a "chicken" in Su Shan and Gui Bi's plan.
Kill the chicken and the monkey!
This is exactly why Gui Bi was so arrogant when he came to the Yiqu tribe.
If the Yiqu tribe is willing to cooperate and be a dog, that would be great. If the Yiqu tribe is unwilling to be a dog, Gui Bi will find another suitable tribe to conduct diplomatic exchanges and then kill the chicken to scare the monkey.
If the other monkey does not cooperate and does not listen to advice.
Gui Bi could only ask Guo Xiaoding to appear and kill the Monkey.
Before the end of the closed beta test, the world points and various rewards obtained by destroying the two tribes in the northern border were much greater than those obtained by simply defending Yancheng.
“I always feel like there are other ways to crack it!”
"The Barbarian Alliance suddenly moved south, which really disrupted a lot of plans!"
"This game actually gave me a real experience of what it means when plans are not as good as changes!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk!"
Gui Bi thought to himself that the plot development of this game was really unexpected. The difficulty of the world mission itself was already high enough, but he didn't expect that there would be unexpected plot developments. (End of this chapter)
