Vanguard Army? The four tribal leaders raised their eyebrows slightly.
The soldiers of the Iron Wolf tribe only said that they would charge forward, which meant that they would fight well and not retreat, but they did not say that they would be the vanguard.
The second prince is truly a talent!
Who doesn't know that in every battle, the vanguard army has the most casualties, and it is not impossible that the entire army is wiped out.
In the past, the Iron Wolf tribe was the main force, and other tribes took turns to be the vanguard.
Besides, the word "charity" is really insulting.
It's just that the Iron Wolf Tribe used to bully others a lot, so when this word is applied to them, it really makes people happy!
The people of the Iron Wolf tribe were angry and anxious, and started shouting dissatisfied.
"Vanguard Army? How can we be a vanguard army? Our Iron Wolf Tribe is brave and skilled in fighting, so we should be the main force."
"Yeah, talking about charity is too insulting to our Iron Wolf tribe!"
However, their dissatisfaction had no effect, and several other tribal leaders had unanimously agreed.
"I will obey the orders of the second prince!"
The soldiers of the Iron Wolf tribe had no choice but to look to the mighty general for help.
The mighty general frowned, and the second prince once again passed him and gave orders directly!
"Humph, I didn't know, I thought the second prince was the commander-in-chief!"
Bai Xiao raised his eyebrows.
"So, the mighty general has objections?"
This tone, the tone of a superior to his subordinates, made the mighty general feel so angry that his chest ached.
Chief Guna was still adding fuel to the fire.
"I think what the Second Prince said is very reasonable! In this world, no one can get something for nothing!
Before the war even started, the Iron Wolf Tribe lost its troops and lost its food and fodder. If you still know the word shame, you should keep your mouth shut and obey orders!"
Leader Mulun also said:
"Besides, this charge is ahead, but what the Iron Wolf tribe said themselves has to do with the second prince? Why, are the Iron Wolf tribe going to go back on their word?"
Wengniu leader’s last hit:
"You have the nerve to talk about being brave and good at fighting? Look at how skinny and sallow you all are. You can't even stand still, let alone lift a sword to kill the enemy. In my opinion, it's more of a burden than just eating for free!"
The leader of Bahu proposed:
"If the Iron Wolf Tribe is not willing to serve as the vanguard, why not return the same way as before, so as not to make the mighty general angry here?"
The mighty general's head was full of questions. Was he angry with the Iron Wolf tribe? He was clearly angry with the second prince for taking matters into his own hands!
Bai Xiao looked at the mighty general and followed the good path:
"Since the mighty general also despises the people of the Iron Wolf tribe for wasting food and is unwilling to let them serve as the vanguard, why not just follow what leader Bahu said and let them go back."
The mighty general was furious:
"When did I say this?"
This one or two can really distort his meaning.
But right now, the leaders of the four major tribes are clearly looking towards the second prince. If he still insists on protecting the Iron Wolf Tribe, he may not be able to escape easily.
Originally, the royal army, plus the Iron Wolf tribe's army, could suppress the other four tribes.
Fortunately, the strength of the Iron Wolf Tribe has been greatly reduced, and it has failed more than succeeded!
It would be better, as the second prince said, to let the Iron Wolf tribe serve as the vanguard to explore the road, which can save food and grass and make full use of the people.
The mighty general looked at the people of the Iron Wolf tribe angrily and asked:
"Are you going to be the vanguard, charge forward and make military exploits, or are you going to go back the way you came and apologize to the emperor?"
The soldiers of the Iron Wolf tribe saw that the mighty general said the same thing, so they had no choice but to choose one of the two:
"General, Second Prince, we are willing to be the vanguard!"
They finally reached the border and were so hungry that their chests pressed against their backs. If they went back the same way, they would starve to death on the way!
Bai Xiao clapped his hands.
"That's good. After dinner, the vanguard will go explore the enemy's camp first."
The mighty general gritted his teeth and said he was the commander-in-chief?
But there was nothing wrong with Bai Xiao's order. He had just calmed down the atmosphere and couldn't make trouble again.
Besides, he wouldn't feel comfortable using people from the other four major tribes to detect the enemy's situation, but it would be just right to use people from the Iron Wolf tribe.
Therefore, the mighty general rarely acquiesced.
After finally having a meager meal, the soldiers of the Iron Wolf Tribe separated into a small team and lurked into the northern border of the Yunxiao Kingdom to explore the camp of the Yunxiao Kingdom's army.
The mighty general stared at Bai Xiao unwillingly for a while and asked:
"Second prince, you said in front of the emperor that you can invade the northern border of Yunxiao Kingdom. I wonder if you have any good ideas that can deal with their God of War Emperor Jun Lingyun?"
What the mighty general is most worried about during this trip is fighting against Shang Jun Lingyun, which will definitely lead to a narrow escape from death.
Bai Xiao glanced at the mighty general with some sympathy.
"If I were the commander-in-chief, I would naturally have something to do. Unfortunately, I am only the deputy-general. A mighty general, he is in his position and seeking his duties."
The mighty general was dumbfounded. What did the second prince mean? He was dissatisfied that he had taken his position as commander, so he didn't say anything even if he had the means.
Can you say this kind of thing blatantly? Aren’t you afraid that the emperor will be angry if he finds out?
"Second prince, we all work for the Northern Barbarian Kingdom and the emperor. As a prince, how can you hold a grudge for a mere general? How can you be worthy of someone who trusts you if you hide your secrets like this?"
The mighty general said, not forgetting to glance at the leaders of the four major tribes.
The meaning is obvious, it is to let the four leaders see clearly what kind of narrow-minded person they support and follow the second prince!
What's more important is that he wants to force Bai Xiao to tell him how to break the situation!
Although he was ready to die on the battlefield, who would be willing to die if there was a chance to live?
Bai Xiao approached, his eyes locked on the mighty general:
"The mighty general should know that things in the world are not static. People who cannot see the situation clearly often die the fastest!"
The mighty general looked at Bai Xiao's cold eyes, and suddenly his heart trembled.
Things turn around! He savored these four words and thought of the disputes in the court today, which revolved around whether to make the second prince the prince or the young prince.
At this moment, the mighty general was shocked to realize that the person in front of him was not an ordinary prince, but a prince who would have the opportunity to inherit the throne in the future!
He stole the position of general that the second prince wanted, and also showed off his power in front of the second prince.
Even if you are lucky enough to survive this war at the hands of Jun Lingyun, can you still survive at the hands of the second prince in the future?
If he has any plans for the future, he has only two choices at the moment.
First, let go of his general's worthless pride and obey the second prince's words.
Second, let the second prince never return to the royal family again!
Anyway, the emperor has given him instructions. If the second prince has evil intentions, he can kill him first and report later!
The mighty general's thoughts changed quickly. He turned his head and looked at the leaders of the four major tribes, only to see that they were all looking at him with amusement.
The mighty general then realized a reality: no chance! He had no chance to get rid of the second prince without anyone noticing!
