Chapter 239 Difficult Choice
In the bitter cold land of the north, there was another heavy snowfall last night.
After a day and night of heavy snow, White Wolf City was covered in pure white, and the branches turned into silver bars. The heavy snow dressed the branches of the trees like beautiful corals and strange antlers. The wilderness was covered with a thick layer of snow.
A cotton quilt. The sky is connected to the earth, the earth is connected to the sky, the white snow is boundless, and the whole earth has become a world of jade and silver sculptures.
In White Wolf City, the soldiers of Baihu Camp walked on the snow, making a "crunching, crunching" sound, the smoke from cooking stoves curling up in the city, and the busy people who got up early. All this showed that the soldiers of Baihu Camp did not disturb the people in White Wolf City too much.
ordinary people and did not interfere too much with their normal lives.

A ray of golden sunlight in the early morning shone through the window lattice into the room and onto Zhou Fugui, who had just woken up.
Zhou Fugui yawned, stretched, and immediately stood up.
Zhou Fugui had an extremely comfortable sleep last night. He slept until dawn. It was also the most comfortable sleep he had had in the past six months, but that was all.
The current situation of Zhou Fugui and his White Tiger Camp does not allow him to sleep soundly every day, nor allow him to enjoy a comfortable and comfortable life. Last night's sleep was already his extravagant wish.
This little girl... After Zhou Fugui got up, he saw Abiyas, who was still sleeping soundly next to the fireplace.
In winter, even though there was a fireplace for warmth, it was still easy to catch a cold if she slept like this, so Zhou Fugui covered her with a thick blanket and gently hugged her to let her sleep comfortably.
meeting.
Zhou Fugui casually put on a thick leather robe and pushed out the door.
.....................
"Master!" The soldiers outside the door took turns sleeping last night, but Bi'e kept watch all night. After seeing Zhou Fugui come out, he quickly bowed and said.
At this time, Zhou Fugui had many soldiers and horses under his command, so he carefully selected fifty soldiers from the White Tiger Camp as his personal followers. Biei, who was extremely brave and grateful to Zhou Fugui, became one of his personal followers.
leader.
The personal followers are the guards or confidants of the general in the army or the ministers of the court. The soldiers in the army are of course the most elite and loyal. Although Biei did not follow Zhou Fugui for a long time, there is a kind of person in the world who, as long as
If you recognize a master in your heart, you will follow him for the rest of your life, and you will not change until death. No matter what the circumstances, you will follow the master, and you will even sacrifice your life for him, and you will never regret it. Bie is this kind of person.
"You haven't slept all night?" Zhou Fugui asked after wrapping his leather robe tightly.
Bihan smiled and nodded.
"Thank you for your hard work, let's go get some sleep." Zhou Fugui looked at BiE and said with a smile.
Having just captured White Wolf City, Zhou Fugui, as the leader of the army, certainly needed someone to protect him while he was sleeping. But now that Zhou Fugui had woken up, he no longer needed such protection.
Zhou Fugui is not an incompetent person. His martial arts skills and bravery are well-known, especially after experiencing hard training at the Ice Bone Camp, two years of hard training in Netherworld Valley, and experiencing bloody battles on the battlefield.
, it can be said that he is a brave general on the battlefield.
"Master, Bi'e is not sleepy, it's not in the way." Bi'e still said with a naive smile.
"Are you really not sleepy?" Zhou Fugui patted Pi'e's thick body and looked at him and asked.
Pi'e straightened his waist and nodded.
"That's it..." Zhou Fugui saw this and ordered Bihe: "Go and call Ye Guanting and Li Qing. After this continues, you can go and have a sleep. This is a general order and cannot be disobeyed."
"Yes, Master." After Bi'e bowed and saluted, he turned around and walked away with a long stride. His steps were as fast as a tiger's, and he didn't look like someone who had stayed up all night.
Zhou Fugui looked at Bi'e's back, shook his head, and then moved into a side room, waiting for the arrival of Ye Guanting and Li Qing.
Ye Guanting and Li Qing are basically the strategists and counselors of the White Tiger Camp. However, Zhou Fugui has not yet formed an army, so there is no such thing as a strategist.
The army is different from the battalion. At least the official positions in the army are much larger and more numerous than the official positions in the battalion.
In this era, in the Yan State, the army was generally organized as follows: a team of five people, with a team leader; a team of ten people, with a captain; a team of fifty people, with a team general; a hundred people with a flag, a flag with a general
Or called the flag master; up there are the camps, the army, and the Yitong, and the mansion is opened. One battalion has a fixed number of 1,000 people, and three battalions are one army. The first army is three thousand people, and the three armies are the Yitong.
, Kaifu has jurisdiction over both Yitong.
The Xia's army organization was roughly the same as that of the Yan Kingdom, the only difference was in the name. After the Xianbei people occupied the Central Plains, many army organizations were imitated from the Central Plains Han army's organization, including many official systems.
Although the Yan Kingdom had a fixed number of people for the founding of the government, Yitong, army, battalion, flag, team, etc., it was not fixed in number, and the number limit was not very strict. The number of people could be increased or decreased according to needs, such as during the Southern Expedition.
The White Tiger Camp, with its 3,000 men, was fully capable of becoming an army. However, without the imperial decree, it could only serve as a camp, not an army. Zhou Fugui could only serve as a camp general or camp leader.
Cannot be a military general or military leader.

"You two are here, please take a seat." Zhou Fugui, who was waiting in the side room, saw Ye Guanting and Li Qing entering the room and pointed to the Hu chair and said to them.
"Thank you, Lord!" Ye Guanting gave a salute, thanked him, and then took a seat. Li Qing was Zhou Fugui's fellow villager, and the two of them couldn't be more familiar. Li Qing knew that Zhou Fugui didn't care about these red tapes, and even felt a little disgusted with them, so
Li Qing just smiled and nodded and sat down.
"Gentlemen, how did you sleep last night?" Zhou Fugui asked with a smile after Ye Guanting and Li Qing took their seats.
Normally, Zhou Fugui would call Li Qing a scholar and a scholar, but now that Ye Guanting was present, it seemed disrespectful to call him that way, so he addressed him as "Mr."
"Thank you, Lord, for thinking of me. Guan Ting is scared." Ye Guanting responded.
"I didn't sleep as well as you." Li Qing rolled his eyes at Zhou Fugui and said, "There are so many chores to do, how about you just ignore them and sleep with your head covered?"
Posting notices to appease the people in White Wolf City, sorting out the seized property, weapons, armor, horses, etc., arranging to prevent the Huns from sneak attacks and other chores were really numerous. Zhou Fugui became the boss, and these chores fell to Ye Guanting, Li Qing and others.
On the body.
It is false to say that Li Qing has no complaints in his heart. However, Zhou Fugui was also like this in the past. He had a lot of headaches about these chores and usually left them to careful people like Li Qing.
There was also a beautiful little lady from the prairie who attended the bed, which made Li Qing and others even more confused. They didn't know that Zhou Fugui had done nothing.
"Haha, thank you for your hard work, neighbor..." Li Qing complained a little, but Zhou Fugui didn't care. He looked at Li Qing and smiled and said, "It's Zhou's fault. I'll have a drink to apologize some other time."
"What kind of wine are you talking about?" Li Qing said with a sad face when he heard this: "You know I don't touch wine, I will get drunk when I touch it... Fugui, I am worried about the next step... What should we do next?
"
The White Tiger Camp defeated two Xiongnu armies and captured White Wolf City. Not that everything was fine and they could just sit back and enjoy the success, settle down and enjoy a comfortable life, but it was even more dangerous. They would face a crazy counterattack by the Huns, and even a huge Xiongnu army.
Shanyu Duo Yongjian got the news and would definitely return to the army. One hundred thousand Huns cavalry returned to the royal court together and strangled the White Tiger Camp. The White Tiger Camp could not resist it no matter what, and it was still a dead end in the end. Therefore, Li Qing was extremely worried.
In fact, Zhou Fugui was also worried, but he didn't show it in order to stabilize the morale of the army.
No matter which country or ethnic group it is, it has a nest. The country's nest is called the capital, and the nest is the foundation. Once it is shaken, the consequences will be disastrous.
Therefore, Zhou Fugui and his White Tiger Camp had a lot of fun and lively fights in the court of the Xiongnu, and won one after another. Their results were comparable to those of Zhou Fugui's divine mentor Huo Qubing, but they were also extremely dangerous.
Fighting in baseless areas is like grass bandits and horse thieves. The fate of grass bandits and horse thieves can be imagined.
There was a lot of fun at the time, but in the end they were almost always defeated and killed.
Yuan Bolong of Feilong Mountain belongs to the old tribe of Xia. They also want to occupy the mountain and become the king. They also want to find a base area. It may be small or remote, but it is better than nothing.
Even Zhou Fugui's divine mentor Huo Qubing, who led a large army to conquer the Huns in the north, sealed the wolf as a vassal, won one great victory after another with almost no defeats, but eventually had to return to the land of the Han Dynasty, did not dare to
He wandered in the hinterland of the Xiongnu for a long time.
"Brother Li, don't worry, my lord must have a good plan in mind." Ye Guanting said with a smile when he heard this.
Ye Guanting had long conversations with Zhou Fugui several times, and of course he knew Zhou Fugui's thoughts or countermeasures, but most of them talked about big strategies rather than how to deal with the current situation.
So Zhou Fugui glanced at Ye Guanting and sighed: "What good ideas can I have? I have a good idea, so I won't find two gentlemen to discuss with me today."
Should he continue to fight and capture the city, flee south to Yandi, or simply capture a territory as a base for development and growth? At this time, Zhou Fugui was in a state of confusion and didn't know what to do.
Zhou Fugui is not an indecisive person, but as the commander-in-chief of an army, his words and deeds will determine the life and death of thousands of people in the entire camp. Especially in this court of the Xiongnu, if he is not careful, the entire army will be annihilated.
There was no room for any mistakes, so Zhou Fugui had to be cautious and had to walk on thin ice every step of the way.
Zhou Fugui, Ye Guanting, and Li Qing all knew this very well, so the three of them were silent for a long time before Li Qing said: "The plan now is nothing more than fight and escape. How to fight? Where to go?"
