Chi You, a tall man with a resolute face, sat on the main seat, looking down at the people in the hall with his tiger eyes, and asked Gonggong, who was at the head of the left, "Have all the armies of the major tribes arrived?"
When Gonggong heard this, he immediately stood up and said in a deep voice: "After the king's recruitment order was issued, all the major tribes responded to the king's order and agreed to send troops, but..."
The Gonggong tribe of Gonggong and the Zhurong tribe of Chi You could be said to be incompatible because of their opposing beliefs, but now Gonggong has become a staunch supporter of Chi You.
Gonggong was Chi You's staunchest opponent at first, and he had no reason to oppose Chi You. As long as Chi You did something, he would try his best to destroy it, no matter whether it was good or bad.
But in the process of confronting Chi You, Gonggong gradually discovered that what Chi You did was of great benefit to all the southern barbarian people, but he himself stood on the hostile side of the people he swore to protect.
After realizing this, Gonggong felt confused for the first time. He didn't know whether he was right or wrong.
After being confused, Gonggong quickly cheered up. This time he no longer opposed Chi You, but he also would not take the initiative to help Chi You. He wanted to see what Chi You could do.
Gonggong never expected that Chi You actually led the Nanman and defeated the Han again and again. In the end, even he had to join in to share the benefits.
When various ethnic groups elected Chi You as the king of the Southern Barbarians, Gonggong was actually very conflicted. After all, there was a blood feud between Zhu Rong and Gonggong. Of course, Gonggong was also afraid that Chi You would become the queen of the Southern Barbarians and settle the scores. If that happened, the whole Gonggong family would be afraid.
All tribes will face disaster.
A few days before the election, Chi You approached Gonggong alone. The two put aside their grudges and opened up their hearts. After talking for a whole night, Gonggong finally understood Chi You's ambition.
Chi You's mind was far broader than Gonggong thought. What he saw was the whole world. The grievances of one family were not worth mentioning in Chi You's heart. Even the Southern Barbarians were nothing more than a stepping stone for Chi You.
Gonggong realized that only people like Chi You could truly lead the Southern Barbarians to prosperity, so he became Chi You's strongest supporter.
Chi You not only did not settle the scores after the fall, but also reused Gong Gong. Gong Gong became the most powerful general in Chi You's account. The Gong Gong and Zhu Rong tribes gave up their centuries-old grudges and shook hands to make peace.
Seeing that Chi You could accept even his enemies Gong Gong, other Southern Barbarian tribes no longer had any worries and all joined Chi You's account. That's why Chi You was able to unify the Southern Barbarians so quickly.
"Due to the recent heavy rains, roads in various places have been blocked to varying degrees, so currently there are only 100,000 troops from various ministries arriving, but I think they will all arrive in another half month," Gonggong said.
"Does it take another half month?"
A trace of worry flashed in Chi You's eyes, and after thinking for a moment he said: "No wait, send troops immediately."
When Gonggong heard this, he hurriedly advised: "But Your Majesty, if we send out troops before all the troops have arrived, I'm afraid our army will suffer a loss in terms of strength."
"Soldiers are very quick. If we wait half a month, Liu Ji and Liu Yan will be ready, and this battle will probably be more difficult to fight. Besides..."
A trace of pride flashed in Chi You's eyes, and he smiled lightly and said: "The combined forces of the first two expeditions against Yi did not amount to a hundred thousand troops, but I have not defeated the Han army yet, and this time I have a hundred thousand troops in hand.
It is more than enough to defeat the Han army."
"this……"
Gonggong was immediately speechless. Although what Chi You said was indeed true, he always felt that Chi You had underestimated the big man.
"That's it, go and deliver the order immediately."
"promise."
After the meeting, everyone left quickly, except Chi You who sat alone on the throne with his eyes closed and deep in thought.
Of course, Chi You would not underestimate the big man. He also wanted to use his superior troops to attack the enemy, but God was not good at it, forcing him to take one step at a time.
"It won't rain in the morning, it won't rain in the evening, but it just rains at this time."
Chi You was naturally very depressed about this, and whispered to himself: "Is this the God of Fire Zhu Rong warning me that it is not appropriate to attack Yi at this time? Something bad will happen if I forcefully attack Yi?"
Chi You couldn't help but shudder at the thought, but then he smiled and shook his head.
Each major tribe of the Southern Barbarians has their own gods they believe in. Chi You also believed in the fire god Zhurong before, but his belief gradually collapsed after it spread across the Central Plains.
"No matter how much you pray and worship, you can't change the poverty and backwardness of the Southern Barbarians, so it's better to believe in the gods than to save yourself. The gods can't save the people, but I, Chi You, can." Chi You thought to himself.
At this time, a pair of small white hands covered Chi You's eyes, and a sweet sound like a silver bell came from behind Chi You.
"Guess who I am? There will be a reward for correct answers."
A hint of tenderness flashed across Chi You's resolute face, and he smiled: "Of course it's my little Zhurong."
"bingo."
A little girl in a red dress walked out from behind Chi You like an elf, then jumped up and kissed Chi You on the face.
Her kiss was like the first day of the morning, directly dispelling all the darkness in Chi You's heart.
The little girl is Chi You's sister, the future Mrs. Zhu Rong, but she is Mrs. Zhu Rong who is fused with the soul of the fire god Zhu Rong. Of course, she is just a cute little loli at this time.
Of course Chi You knew that his sister didn't want to ask questions at all, she just wanted to get close to him, so the doting Zhu Rong hugged her, kissed her tender little face, and asked with a smile: "Recently?"
You are not lazy in practicing, are you?"
Xiao Zhurong was kissed by his brother, and his happy eyes almost narrowed into crescent moons. But after hearing these words, his little face suddenly fell, and then a trace of cunning flashed in his eyes. He patted his chest again and said with a smile: "Of course not.
, the elders of the clan all praised little Zhu Rong as a genius."
"real?"
A smile flashed in Chi You's eyes, and Xiao Zhurong quickly changed the subject and asked: "Brother, are you going to fight again?"
"yes."
Seeing the worried look in his sister's eyes, Chi You touched her little head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, brother will get it soon. When he captures Chengdu, he will take little Zhurong to live in Chengdu."
“Nan Middle School is very good, so I won’t go to Chengdu.”
Xiao Zhurong pouted, looking unhappy.
After Chi You and his sister played around for a while, he realized that the time to send troops was coming. Although he was extremely reluctant to leave, he could only bear the pain and say goodbye to his sister.
Looking at her brother's leaving figure, Xiao Zhurong wanted to shout: Life has gotten better, can we stop fighting? But she still didn't shout anything.
