The happy life of a prodigal

But, besides storing food, what else can we do?

In the past, they could still go to the south to enjoy the autumn wind in the four northern states.

But now, the situation is different.

After thinking about it, it seems that there is only one way left, and that is to rob other tribes.

The newly formed alliance has not been more than a month old.

It is necessary to turn against each other and plunder each other, this is not what Qi Yanxiong wants to see.

However, until now, it seems that there is only this road left, and most importantly, this road may not be feasible yet.

You know, before the soldiers and horses move, the food and grass go first.

Now that the Qiyan Department only has this little food and grass left, whether it can supply war horses is still a question.

Coupled with this Southern Expedition and the various natural punishments encountered on the return journey, the [-] army of the Qiyan Department has lost half of it at this moment.

An army of [-] is enough to plunder some small and medium tribes.

But the food of those tribes is not enough to support the needs of the Qiyan tribe.

If it is a big tribe like the Zhalu tribe, whether they can beat it is still a big problem.

Most importantly, everyone knows that there are more wolves and less meat.

Once the Qiyan tribe launched a plunder against other tribes.

The other tribes must join forces.

Even those big tribes such as the Zalu tribe will take advantage of the gap.

Then, from now on, the Begging Yan Department will no longer exist.

Qi Yanxiong stood where he was, looking at the scorched earth, speechless for a long time.

The generals next to him were all standing, not saying a word, with various expressions.

There is anger, there is unwillingness, there is trance...

A year ago, the Qiyan tribe was considered to be the most powerful tribe on the grassland.

A month ago, although the Qiyan tribe had declined a lot, it could still be regarded as one of the most powerful tribes, and it could still gain the respect of other tribes.

But......

What about now?

In just one year, under the leadership of their emperor, what has the Qiyan Department become?

I'm afraid that after a while, whether the Begging Yan Department can continue to exist is still a question.

The generals are silent, but they have a steelyard in their hearts, and this steelyard has gradually become biased.

The ideas of these generals also gradually changed.

The weak eat the strong, the fittest survive.

Especially in places like grasslands, only powerful people can lead an entire tribe.

A stupid person will only lead the tribe to perish!

"Father......"

When everyone was in a trance, a crisp voice suddenly sounded.

Everyone looked up and saw a familiar figure standing in front of them.

Beg Yan Yanran!

"your Highness!"

All the generals saluted.

Qi Yanyan walked up to Qi Yanxiong and looked at him with a strange expression.

Qi Yanxiong also looked at him, finally showing a faint smile on his face.

If it is said that among his children, besides Qi Yangong, there is someone who makes him feel satisfied.

There is only one beggar Yanran.

Whether as an envoy to Da Chu, or as a commander, fighting other tribes.

Or help him deal with tribal matters.

Qi Yanyanran did everything perfectly enough, which saved him a lot of heart.

Of course, this time, Qi Yanyan was sent by him to the vicinity of the Zhalu tribe to pay close attention to the movements of the Zhalu tribe.

If she was sent to stay in the Begging Yan Department, even the food and grass would not be set on fire by those Chu people.

Thinking of this, Qi Yanxiong couldn't help regretting for a while, but the expression on his face didn't show, he just asked: "How is the Zhalu Department? Why are you back?"

Qi Yanyan looked at Qi Yanxiong, and replied: "A group of 3 people from the Zhalu tribe went to the expedition, all of them returned to the tribe...the daughter came back..."

Having said that, he paused, seemingly hesitant.

After hesitating, he didn't know what to think of, and his expression became firm again.

"My daughter has some things to discuss with her father when she comes back."

When Qi Yanxiong heard this, he frowned slightly.

Negotiate?

This word cannot be used casually.

In the entire Begging Yan Department, who is qualified to discuss with the emperor?

Therefore, he did not speak in order to express his dissatisfaction.

Seeing this scene, Qi Yanyan seemed to have strengthened her mind, and said, "Father, my daughter has seen many things and understood many things during the past six months in the Zhalu tribe.

In just half a year, the army of Zalu's army has grown from 2 to 5 now, with all kinds of weapons, armor, food and grass.

Our begging face department, a year ago, could have 20 warriors and could call on [-] warriors to follow.

But now, there are only less than 3 warriors left in this tribe, and this time the southern expedition is even less than 2.

Other tribes do not obey our orders.

What do you think this is because of? "

When Qi Yanxiong heard this, his expression changed.

The whole person seemed very angry, just about to speak out, but saw Qi Yanyan stretch out her hand to stop him.

"Father, please wait for me to finish first...Daughter has been in the Zalu tribe for half a year, and she has seen it too clearly. The weapons and armor of the Zalu tribe are all obtained from other tribes.

But the armor and weapons of other tribes were obtained from the Great Chu court.

The Great Chu court never stopped sending armor and weapons to other tribes, and they even provided food and grass when necessary.

They do this without even asking for anything in return, just giving.

So, do you know why so many tribes popped up in just one year?

They have all been favored by the court of Great Chu, do you think they will sincerely join you in crusade against Great Chu?

To tell you the truth, this time out of the city, the Zhalu Department has already made preparations in advance, just sending people without any effort.

My daughter also got the news that you, the warriors of the tribe, and people from the Zalu tribe besieged Qiuning Mansion for half a month.

But none of them were captured. Do you think it's just because of Da Chu's special weapons? "

Chapter 892

When Qi Yanxiong heard what Qi Yanyan said, his face became extremely gloomy.

He never thought that the Great Chu court was still secretly funding other tribes.

Even if he heard some news, he just took it as a joke.

How could it be possible for the Great Chu court and the grassland tribes to conquest each other for so many years to give them supplies?

However, this time the Southern Expedition, if you think about it carefully, there are indeed many tribes who did not work hard.

Let's say that the Nazalu tribe arrived at Qiuning Mansion three days later than originally planned, which is really suspicious.

Qi Yanxiong thought so, but Qi Yanyan continued to speak.

"Father, there is no need for us to protect them when other tribes treat us like this.

Marquis Xin'an of Great Chu has already sent someone to find his daughter. As long as our Qiyan tribe puts aside our previous prejudices, the Great Chu court will reconcile with our Qiyan tribe and conquer other tribes together.

The Xin'an Houfu will provide us with enough food for the winter and some necessary weapons to help us become the only tribe on the grassland.

From then on, the Department of Begging for Yan has turned into Dao of Begging for Yan, and you are the Lord of Begging for Yan, which will be passed down forever! "

As soon as these words came out, the entire Begging Yan Department fell silent.

When the generals heard this, they all showed disbelief, and immediately, their eyes changed several times.

They also looked at each other in blank dismay.

begging face...

Begging Yan Gong......

Does this mean that from now on, the Begging Yan Department will submit to Da Chu?

seem......

perhaps......

Maybe...not such a bad choice.

After all, today's Beg Yan Department has lost the capital to negotiate.

Whether it can survive this winter is still a question. If it can get the help of the Great Chu court to unify the entire grassland tribes, it may not be a good thing!

It's just that he surrendered to the Great Chu court, that's all. It's not like this kind of thing has never happened before.

When the Begging Yan Department recuperates, develops again, and then tears up the previous contract, the Begging Yan Department will still be the same begging Yan Department.

What's wrong with that?

All the generals of the Qiyan Department thought so.

But Qi Yanxiong didn't think so.

The most lofty ideal in his life is to establish the Qiyan Empire and make Chu Kingdom submit to him, but now he is made to submit to Da Chu. He is still a small duke, not even a king.

In any case, he is unacceptable!

Qi Yanxiong's expression changed several times, and finally he made up his mind. He gritted his teeth, looked at Qi Yanyan, and roared angrily: "Bold! Who told you these words? I just finished the Southern Expedition, and you are here to deceive people !

How could the Great Chu court be so friendly?What they promised you was just to drive a wedge between you!

What's more, the Qiyan tribe has stood on the grassland for hundreds of years without falling down, relying on the pride of the grassland.

Eagles and wolves will never be slaves!

The Great Chu court will never want to beg Yan to submit!

Qi Yanyan, who told you these words, who is behind your scenes, tell me, I will spare your life! "

These words were extremely resolute, and almost fundamentally settled the matter.

After Qiyan Yanran heard this, the expression on her face changed a little.

Obviously, such a result had already been envisioned when he decided to come.

only......

She still couldn't bear it.

This is the end of the matter, and there is no other way.

"Father, in the past year, take a look at what the Qiyan tribe has become under your leadership. The original allies have left one by one. The tribe's [-] warriors are now less than [-]. They were once the pride of the grassland. Now any tribe can despise!

Until now, all the tribal food reserves have been burned, and we no longer have the capital to negotiate with other tribes, let alone the Great Chu court.

We can only make one chess piece now, and it can only be a chess piece of the Great Chu court.
