Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

After a brief rest, the army launched another attack that afternoon.

Another run of more than a hundred miles, and another night attack.

Thousands of cavalry turned into a storm and swept through the banners of the Ermubu family, Chahar family and Dosol family.

In just four days, they turned the flag lands of four large clans into ruins.

But at the same time, news of their attacks on major banner areas spread.

The settlements, large and small, fell into panic, becoming turbulent and full of enemies.

As the panic spreads, the power of preparedness is strengthened.

Whether these settlements are defended or not makes a big difference to Yang Zhengshan and others.

Without preparedness, their attack would be a surprise; with preparedness, their attack would become a forceful attack.

Although this cannot stop them, it will slow down the efficiency and speed of their elimination.

Therefore, after annihilating the Dosol clan, Yang Zhengshan and the others slowed down the pace of their attack and became more steady.

"Next, we have to be on guard against Fushan City. Once the news reaches Fushan City, Fushan City will definitely send troops to pursue us!"

During the break, Zhou Lan, Wang Bin and Yang Zhengshan got together to discuss.

"I'll wait and watch Fushan City!" Zhou Lan said.

Yang Zhengshan thought for a while and nodded slightly, "Let's first see how many troops they will send. If there are few, then we will fight hard. If there are many, then we will have no choice but to run away!"

After several attacks, they also lost a lot of soldiers. At present, they have only a little more than 5,000 soldiers left. Compared with the results they obtained, the casualties of less than 2,000 are already very good.

But facing Fushan City's nearly 100,000 troops, their small force was dwarfed by comparison.

If Fushan City sends 10,000 troops, they can still have a head-on confrontation. If Fushan City sends 20,000 troops, then they may be able to think of a way and may have a chance of winning.

But if they send 30,000 to 40,000 troops, then they will have no choice but to run away!

Wang Bin nodded and said, "Where should we go next?"

Yang Zhengshan looked at the simple map on the ground. He didn't know much about the situation in the north of Fushan City and Chongshan Town. The map was extremely crude. Except for the four flag areas, the locations of other settlements were very inaccurate. As for the terrain, that was also There is a huge deviation.

"To this!"

He pointed to the northwest, where the terrain was a little more complicated, with many hills and forests, and he hid and fled with them.

As for the settlements of the Hu people, there are several over there.

"There are some small settlements over there!" Wang Bin frowned. He felt that now they should continue to expand their results and attack those medium-sized settlements as soon as possible.

"Next, our focus is to prepare for Fushan City's pursuit, rather than to expand the results!" Yang Zhengshan explained.

Greed is the original sin.

At this time, Yang Zhengshan felt that it was better to play it safe. They should try to be more careful before confirming the movements of Fushan City.

"That's right!" Zhou Lan nodded in agreement. Wang Bin thought about it and agreed with Yang Zhengshan's idea.

At the same time, news of the destruction of the four major banners reached Fushan City.

The first news that reached Fushan City was the news of the destruction of the Gorqin Banner. In fact, it was already the third day after the destruction of the Gorqin Banner.

The news reached Fushan City, and the entire Fushan City was shocked.

There was a lot of anger within the Gorqin clan, and many people wanted to lead troops to take revenge, but the senior leaders of the Gorqin clan suppressed them.

The reason is simple. For the Gorqin family today, Fushan City is far more important than the flag land.

They cannot put Fushan City in danger just to avenge Banner.

Of course, this does not mean that they will let the enemies who attack the banner go unchecked. The top management of the Gorqin family wants to ask Ermubu, Chahar and Dosol to send troops to pursue them.

However, the senior officials of the Ombu, Chahar and Dosol tribes refused.

As of now, the interior of Fushan City is no longer what it used to be. The Gorqin clan is no longer able to control the other three clans, and there are constant overt and covert fights between the parties.

This was one of the reasons why they were unable to come up with a complete plan to deal with Liang Chu's army outside the city.

The senior officials of the four clans had a heated argument in the royal palace, and then broke up unhappy.

But when the news came the next day that the banners of Omubu and Chahar had been destroyed, everyone was anxious.

Ermubu and Chahar are different from Gorqin. Gorqin's center of gravity has shifted to Fushan City, but they have not. Everything they have is still within the banner.

Now that their home has been raided, can they not be anxious?

In the main hall of the royal court, Meng Temu, the banner lord of the Gorqin clan, the king of the Daling Dynasty, was sitting on the throne.

Mentemu is already in his sixties, with white beard and hair, and an old face, but he has a power that makes people dare not look directly at him.

Speaking of Mentemu, he can definitely be called a legend.

In the Battle of Black Cloud Mountain twenty-six years ago, the entire East China Sea Hu tribe suffered heavy losses and their vitality was severely damaged. The Gorqin family was no exception. Even the flag owner died at the foot of Black Cloud Mountain.

It was at that time that Meng Temu inherited the position of banner leader.

What he took over was a dilapidated Gorqin clan. The number of strong men in the clan had dropped sharply, the labor force was insufficient, and there were many outside clans who were eyeing the wealth of the Gorqin clan.

In this case, Mengtemu showed strong means and led a group of remnants to eliminate three medium-sized tribes that provoked the Gorqin clan, once again establishing the Gorqin clan as one of the seven major clans. status.

In the following twenty years, Meng Temu worked hard to govern the tribe, while working with other tribes to check and balance, and at the same time shifted the focus of the Gorqin clan to Fushan City.

It was precisely because of Fushan City that the Gorqin clan got the opportunity to develop rapidly.

Although Fushan City is not a big city, its relatively safe environment and fixed location make Fushan City the economic and trade center of the Donghai Hu tribe.

Tribes of all sizes come to Fushan City for trade, and Meng Temu made a lot of money for the Gorqin clan by relying on this.

With wealth, the living conditions in the tribe have improved, the young people have grown up, and the strength of the Gorqin clan has been restored.

With strength, Meng Temu made alliances and united the seven large tribes again.

The previous invasion of the border of Dayong was a plan he made to show his ability and strength to the major tribes.

The first invasion of the border of Dayong, they won a great victory and plundered a lot of wealth from Dayong, which established his status and prestige in the Donghai Hu tribe.

When he led the Donghai Hu tribe to defeat Zhang Shouwang's army outside Fushan City, his prestige among the Donghai Hu tribe reached its peak. He established the Daling Dynasty and proclaimed himself king.

But then he faced Liang Chu and was defeated at Chongshan Pass.

A big defeat caused the prestige he had accumulated for many years to collapse. In addition, as he got older, the major tribes no longer treated him with respect as before.

Now, he can no longer control the major tribes.

At this time, Meng Temu sat on the throne, overlooking the ministers below, with a deep gaze.

Among the ministers, the three flag owners of Omubu, Chahar and Duosuoer stood in the front.

Bao Alang, the flag owner of Omubu, was slightly thin, handsome, and had a unique elegance. From the outside, he did not look like a Hu tribe member, but more like a scholar of Darong.

Suo Change, the flag owner of Chahar, was big-shouldered and fat-faced, and looked particularly fierce.

Gulhaci, the leader of the Duosuo clan, was a little old man, short, hunched, with white hair and beard. He was nearly ten years older than Mengtemu and was now nearly seventy years old.

"Mengtemu, are you going to send troops? If you don't dare to send troops, we Duosuo will send troops ourselves!"

In the hall, the loud voice of Suo Chang'e rang out. He called Mengtemu's name directly, without any awe for the king.

However, he was the loudest one who opposed Mengtemu's sending troops yesterday.

Yesterday Mengtemu asked them to send troops, but they refused. Today they asked Mengtemu to send troops again.

At this time, Mengtemu's mood can be imagined. He wanted to kill these capricious villains.

But he couldn't. Not only could he not kill them, but he had to rely on them.

"We can send troops from Gorqin, but not all of them. We can only send 5,000!"

"You can send the same, too. You can only send 5,000!"

"No!"

As soon as Mengtemu finished speaking, Gulhaci said slowly, "We will send 10,000 troops from Duosor! We also need to protect the banner!"

Up to now, they have not received any news that Duosor's banner has been attacked, but Gulhaci understands that since the other party has attacked the banners of the other three families, they will definitely not let go of their banners.

So the most anxious person at this time is Gulhaci, who is eager to mobilize the army back to the banner.

"Senior Gulhaci, don't forget that there are Liang Chu's troops outside the city. The banner is important, and Fushan City is also important. We can't give up Fushan City because of the banner!" Mengtemu suppressed his anxiety and said calmly.

Although the focus of other tribes is no longer Fushan City, they all understand that if they can't defend Fushan City, they will have no chance of winning and can only be driven to the cold snowfield by Darong.

This is also the reason why they are still willing to stand here.

Gulhaci raised his head and looked at Mengtemu with his cloudy eyes, "I understand the importance of Fushan City, but you also need to understand my worries!"

He is older than Mengtemu and has a higher generation than Mengtemu. Although Mengtemu is a king, his prestige in the entire Donghai Hu tribe is not low.

At this time, he called himself an old man, which really gave Mengtemu face.

And Mengtemu couldn't help but curse in his heart, "I knew this old thing was the most difficult to deal with!"

Although the irritable Suo Chang'e has a loud voice, he is the easiest to appease. As long as he is given money and things, he is willing to do things.

The introverted Bao Alang is the most cautious. Perhaps he has the most thoughts in his heart, but his caution makes him feel restrained in doing anything, and he can't accomplish anything.

Gulhaci looks old and stupid, but in fact this old man is the most difficult to deal with. He relies on his age and makes Mengtemu feel aggrieved sometimes.

"Bao Alang, what do you think?" Meng Temu couldn't target Gulhaci, so he could only look at Bao Alang who didn't say a word.

Bao Alang looked at Gulhaci and said, "Dosor can send 10,000 troops, and we will send 5,000!"

Meng Temu was a little disappointed, but he still said, "That's it, send troops now!"

Now that things have come to this, there is no point in arguing anymore, and it will put oneself on the opposite side of them, so it is better to agree directly.

However, this also means that he has given in again.

Then everyone dispersed, and they mobilized troops to chase and suppress the Darong army that attacked the flag land.
