The guard captain was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but then he realized that Mr. Tian was explaining for Liu Tie.
After thinking about this, I quickly bowed to Mr. Tian, hugged my fists, and then left.
The guard captain could understand what Mr. Tian meant, and Liu Tie naturally understood it too. ⑧①ZW.????m
He glanced at Mr. Tian and asked, "Is it necessary?"
"Tiezi, I'm not talking about you as an elder. You don't understand what you say. There are some things that need to be said, so you have to explain them clearly."
Mr. Tian said: "One sentence can let everyone know that there are no knots in their hearts. Why not say one more sentence?"
"Understood!" Liu Tie nodded, and then asked: "Mr. Tian, do you think the Eastern Barbarians will continue to attack the city tonight?"
"I can't say," Mr. Tian sighed, "but it's always good to prepare everyone."
As the guard captain conveyed Liu Tie's order, the bodyguards and female soldiers became busy again.
Two more houses under the city wall were knocked down, and the bricks and stones were knocked into pieces and transported to the city wall on pallets.
The female soldiers guarding the city wall were also in full formation, ready to respond to more violent attacks at any time.
However, they kept guarding until dawn, and the enemy did not launch an attack.
"Are they going to give up, or is Dongman Chanyu killed in a bomb last night?"
Liu Tie looked at the Dongman camp in the north with a look of anticipation.
He thought that the enemy would definitely launch an attack last night, but there was no movement until now. This made Liu Tie begin to expect that Shan Yu had been killed.
Unfortunately, things backfired. Not only was Shan Yu not killed, he was actually killing people with a knife.
In an inconspicuous tent in the Dongman camp, a group of tribal leaders lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
After last night's attack, Shanyu summoned them to this tent for a meeting to discuss what to do next.
Yuguan City was not captured for several days, and the corpses under the city had covered the grassland, which was a heavy blow to these tribal leaders.
Because those who died under Yuguan City were all their clansmen.
In addition, the forage was burned last night, and many tribal leaders have already begun to think about retreating.
However, Chanyu insisted on taking Yuguan City, and forcibly assigned quotas to each tribe, requiring them to sacrifice cattle and sheep for food, and also asked them to continue to attack the city.
There was a tribal leader who had lost more than half of his tribe and refused to accept it. He contradicted Shan Yu and was directly killed by Shan Yu.
"Is there still any objection now?"
Shanyu shook off the blood beads on his knife and glanced fiercely at the surrounding tribal leaders.
The inheritance of the Chanyu of the Eastern Barbarians was much bloodier than the struggle for the throne of Dakang. This Chanyu was a king who emerged from the sea of blood from the mountain of corpses.
Over the past few decades, countless tribes have been wiped out.
Under his gaze, all the leaders lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
"Since no one objects, then obey the order and continue to attack the city in half an hour!"
Shanyu spat on the ground, opened the curtain and walked out.
After leaving the door, he asked the guard captain: "I asked you to send a message to the south, have you sent it?"
Although there is Yuguan City between them and the Jin-Barbarian coalition in the south, people can bypass Yuguan City by boat from the sea and then land in the wasteland south of the city.
This is how the spies who had contacted Yeluyuan before bypassed Yuguan City.
If it weren't for the fact that the Eastern Barbarians were not good at shipbuilding and could not build troop transport ships, Shanyu would not have cooperated with the King of Jin at all, and directly sent people to cross the sea to go around to the south.
"It has been passed on!" the guard captain replied with a nod.
The Chanyu of the Eastern Barbarians relied on the prestige he had earned through years of fighting to suppress the opposition, but in the camp of the Jin-Barbarian coalition in the south, Yeluyuan did not go so smoothly.
After receiving the order from Shan Yu just now, he immediately went to find Feng Shicai and asked the Jin and Barbarian coalition forces to cooperate with the Dongman barbarians in the north to launch an attack on the city.
However, Feng Shicai was directing his men to count the rescued supplies and ignored Yeluyuan at all.
"I'm talking to you, don't you hear me?"
When Yeluyuan saw that Feng Shicai was ignoring him, he couldn't help but push Feng Shicai.
But who knew that Feng Shicai drew the knife directly: "You try to push me again!"
Feng Shicai was not one of those dandy generals of Dakang. He had been fighting with the King of Jin since he was a teenager, and he was also a fierce general who had seen blood.
Before coming here, King Jin had repeatedly told him not to have a conflict with Yeluyuan, but he had to deal with Jin Feng and settle accounts with the Eastern Barbarians in the future.
Therefore, Feng Shicai endured being run against by Yeluyuan many times on the way here.
But now that his food and grass had been burned, and Yeluyuan came to ask him to attack the city, Feng Shicai finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Ye Luyuan narrowed his eyes, but in the end he did not push Feng Shicai anymore. Instead, he turned over his hand and took out a token: "General Feng, do you recognize this token?"
"How come you have His Majesty's token!" Feng Shicai was surprised.
As an old man who had been with King Jin for more than 20 years, Feng Shicai recognized it at a glance. This was King Jin's token.
And it is the one with the greatest authority among all tokens, and can almost represent King Jin himself.
"Of course the token was given to me by your Majesty himself. There is also his handwritten letter here."
Yeluyuan said, took out another letter from his arms and handed it to Feng Shicai.
After Feng Shicai finished reading, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.
In the letter, the King of Jin appointed Yeluyuan as the President Commander of the Jin-Barbarian Alliance, and also ordered Feng Shicai to obey Yeluyuan unconditionally.
Feng Shicai had fought with King Jin for half his life and was considered King Jin's right-hand man. He really couldn't believe that King Jin would make such a decision.
However, there is the seal of King Jin on the letter, and the handwriting is undoubtedly that of King Jin, indicating that this letter was written by King Jin himself.
Coupled with the token with the most authority, Feng Shicai had to believe everything.
Feng Shicai took out the military talisman and seal from his arms, glanced at it reluctantly, and then threw it to Ye Luyuan: "Here you go, from now on, you are the commander-in-chief!"
After saying that, he was about to leave, but Yelu Yuan held him back: "General Feng, don't leave!"
"I've given you the military talisman and seal, what else do you want?" Feng Shicai asked with a glare.
"I don't want to be the commander-in-chief, I just hope you can cooperate with Shanyu!"
Yeluyuan handed the military talisman and seal to Feng Shicai.
It wasn't that he really didn't want to be the commander-in-chief, but that 80% of the Jin-Barbarian coalition were members of the King of Jin, and Feng Shicai spoke better than him.
Seeing that Feng Shicai refused to take the military talisman seals, Yeluyuan directly stuffed them into Feng Shicai's arms.
Feng Shicai hesitated for a moment and finally took it.
All his direct relatives and followers were in this coalition, and he really didn't feel comfortable handing over the troops to Yeluyuan.
"That's right!"
Seeing Feng Shicai put away the military seal again, Yeluyuan continued: "General Feng, you are also a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time. You should know very well that with the little food we grabbed, it is impossible to eat for a few days, let alone sustain it.
Everyone, go back to Jin, now we only have one way to survive: attacking the city!"
