Chapter 698: The Uninvited Guest (3)

Jiang Mingxia cheered, and immediately caught up in a few steps, and hurriedly untied the rope for Luo Huan, and Chunyu Zhongxiu and Xiaobai also rushed up and protected the two of them.

However, Gao Yuan did not take advantage of the situation to pursue, but put away his saber and said to Shui Xinyue: "My promise is still valid, you didn't hurt Huan'er, and you didn't hurt others, so I promise that I won't hurt you this time, if there is anything, you can say it now." ”

Shui Xinyue's eyes flickered, but she couldn't help but be discouraged in her heart, because the initiative was no longer in her hands, and at this time, Shui Xinyue's heart also secretly regretted it, after all, Shui Xinyue did not plan to hurt Luo Huan, and Gao Yuan was aware of this, so he had already grasped the initiative when he appeared, but he still wanted to use Luo Huan's safety to threaten the plateau, but the result could only become an empty intimidation, making himself passive step by step, but now the plateau is a generous gesture, Whether it was done intentionally or not, but it made Zisi completely at a disadvantage, and he could only be led by the plateau.

If he handed over Luo Huan to Gao Yuan from the beginning, he would be better, because he took the initiative to hand over people, he would not be so passive. But it's too late to regret it now, after all, Shui Xinyue came to see the plateau alone, of course, there is something important, so he nodded and said, "Okay, but I hope to be able to talk to you alone." After a pause, he said, "If you want to sue them in the future, that's your business, but for now, I just want to talk to you alone." ”

Gao Yuan thought for a while, nodded as well, and said, "Okay, I promise you." He turned to Chunyu Zhongxiu and said, "Miss Chunyu, I'll go talk to her alone, please take care of these two children." ”

Chun Yu Zhongxiu nodded and said, "Don't worry, Wu Anjun, I will take care of them." After a pause, he said, "Wu Anjun, please be careful." ”

Gao Yuan smiled: "Don't worry, I'll be fine." ”

At this time, Jiang Mingxia had already untied Luo Huan's rope and helped Luo Huan up from the ground, and the two also came to the plateau, Luo Huan said: "Father." ”

Gao Yuan patted him lightly on the shoulder and said, "Huan'er, you are very good this time, stay here now, listen to Miss Chunyu's words, I will take you back to the camp later." ”

Luo Huan said: "Yes, father." ”

Gao Yuan came to Shui Xinyue's side, and the two walked out of a distance of more than fifty steps, although Chun Yu Zhongxiu and the others could still see them, but they definitely couldn't hear their conversation, Gao Yuan said: "Say, what's the matter?" It is worthy of being one of the five divine generals under Han Teng to personally go deep into the Saiwai grassland. ”

Shui Xinyue said with a smile: "I think Wu Anjun is very casual when he arrives, and he actually camps here, have you ever thought that you have already experienced a catastrophe, and you don't know it." ”

Gao Yuan said: "Long-distance march, easy to get tired, so it is necessary to stop and recuperate in the middle, as for the catastrophe you are talking about, do you mean the Hun army?" ”

Shui Xinyue didn't look very surprised, and said: "If it's just the Hun army, I believe Wu Anjun doesn't take it seriously." ”

Gao Yuan said: "Could it be that in the Xiongnu army, there are still people from the Bailing clan?" If it is the Bailing people and the Hun army, it will be a little troublesome. ”

Shui Xinyue glanced at him and said: "That's just a group of down-and-out people who have been driven out of the tribe, although they can indeed cause some trouble to Wu Anjun, but I believe that Wu Anjun is still not difficult to deal with, now Wu Anjun is bringing, but the people of the entire Bailing clan, how can they be afraid of this group of rabble." ”

Seeing that Shui Xinyue did not deny his speculation, and since he said "a group of down-and-out people who were driven out of the tribe", Gao Yuan was also able to determine that Yun Yaoshi's speculation was not wrong, the group of Bailing people who defected from the Bailing clan had taken refuge in the Xiongnu and attracted the Xiongnu army. However, judging from Shui Xinyue's tone, his opponents are not only the Huns and Bailing people, there should be a force.

Gao Yuan said: "In addition to these two points, I can't guess what else, but you came to me this time, it must be for reasons I don't know, but to be able to come in person, of course, it's different." ”

Shui Xinyue nodded and said: "I can't guess, and you can't be considered incompetent, because this is something you can't think of at all, in the Xiongnu army, there is a person from the Jiuli tribe, and this time the Xiongnu sent a large army to attack Wu Anjun's army, all of which were instigated by him." ”

Gao Yuan's heart was also a little surprised, he didn't expect the Jiuli clan to also participate, if there was the participation of the Jiuli clan, then he would have to reassess the strength of the opponent, after all, the Jiuli clan had too many uncertainties, so Gao Yuan pondered for a moment, and then said: "How would the Jiuli clan know that I came to look for the Bailing clan this time?" ”

Shui Xinyue raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "I can't answer this question." ”

Gao Yuan smiled and said: "Even if you don't say it, I can guess that it should be the Jiuli clan that has a spy in Dai County, and you have discovered my plan to go to the grassland to find the Bai Ling clan, so I also went to the grassland and said that the Xiongnu would send troops, and the group of traitors who met the Bai Ling clan was just an accident." However, being able to detect my whereabouts shows that the strength of the Jiuli tribe's spy agency in Daijun is good, it seems that I was a little careless, thinking that it would be okay to only clear out the spies of the Qin State, but I didn't expect to ignore the Jiuli people. ”

Shui Xinyue was stunned for a moment, and not only sighed secretly in her heart, she couldn't imagine that Gao Yuan could deduce so many things from her own words, and she still underestimated Gao Yuan.

At this time, Gao Yuan said: "But there is still one thing I haven't figured out, that is, why do you sue me for these things." ”

Shui Xinyue glanced at Gao Yuan again, and then said, "Because we don't let him succeed." ”

Gao Yuan was stunned, but immediately understood, this may involve the power struggle within the Jiuli tribe, this Jiuli tribe who instigated the Xiongnu to send troops is obviously Han Teng's enemy in the Jiuli tribe, of course this credit can't be let go, so Shui Xinyue didn't care about the risk, and even risked exposing all the spy systems of the Jiuli tribe in Daijun, and rushed to warn himself.

So Gao Yuan said: "What are the details, tell me everything you think you can sue me." ”

At this point, Shui Xinyue really had nothing to hide, so how did Fu Gongyan find himself, enter the grassland, help Mao Dun ambush and kill Tou Man Shan Yu, seize the position of Shan Yu, and said that Mao Dun sent the Xiongnu army to attack the plateau, not only to kill the plateau on the grassland, but also to completely eliminate the Bai Ling clan.

However, the station of the Bai Ling clan is too far away from the Shan Yuting of the Huns, and the Bai Ling clan rarely moves on the grassland, although there are some legends left on the grassland, but they are all illusory, so it is not easy to find the station of the Bai Ling clan, and even the location of the Bai Ling clan is not clear. Although after Mao Dun ascended to the position of Shan Yu, he sent more than 20 teams in a company, braving the severe cold and wind and snow of winter, to find the whereabouts of the Bailing clan in all directions of the grassland, but after three or four months, nothing was found, and many people froze to death on the way.

It wasn't until after the New Year that a search team found the White Spirit people who had escaped from the White Spirit Clan's station.

It turned out that after the failure to seize power, Feng Yi and Yun Qi led more than three or four hundred of their henchmen to escape from the valley and enter the grassland. Because both of them knew that after living for more than 800 years, the Bai Ling clan was too familiar with the terrain in the valley, coupled with the special ability of the Bai Ling clan, so they couldn't hide in the valley at all, and could only flee to the grassland to have a glimmer of life. According to Feng Yi and Yun Qi's plan, with the ability of the Bai Ling Clan, it is not difficult to survive on the grassland. As long as you find a place with abundant water and grass to settle down, you can form a small tribe of three or four hundred people, and then you can develop slowly, although it is harder, but at least you can make your own decisions, and it may develop into a large tribe in the future.

But although the two of them thought very well, but in the grassland in the cold winter, it is not so easy to spend, in the valley due to the basin effect, although it is winter, it is relatively warm, but once out of the valley, it is completely two worlds, from it is night, almost the water into ice, and Feng Yi, Yun Qi and his party are not busy, not only not enough food, even the cold and snow utensils are not much.

As a result, on the first day of escape from the valley, some people froze to death at night, and on the fourth day, they encountered a snowstorm, and nearly half of the people froze to death, including almost all the horses and livestock they brought with them. And then, almost every day, someone froze to death.

By the tenth day, even the food was almost exhausted, Feng Yi and Yun Qi were able to avoid strong support, but the others couldn't stand it, so some people discussed the plan in private, it was better to kill Feng Yi and Yun Qi, take their heads back to the clan to ask for forgiveness, this is better than freezing and starving to death on the grassland.

However, not everyone agrees with this proposition, after all, there are many people who think that returning to the clan is also a dead end, and there are still people who are loyal to Feng Yi and Yun Qi, and the plan is leaked, and the remaining Bai Ling clan people have started a big fight between them, although in the end Feng Yi and Yun Qi side won, but at this time they are less than fifty people. Moreover, the food has been completely exhausted, and there is a lack of cold items, so it will not last long.

Fortunately, at this time, a Xiongnu army looking for the Bailing tribe found here, because the characteristics of the Bailing people's silver hair were very obvious, so the Xiongnu quickly discovered them, although the number of the Xiongnu army was not much, but at this time, Feng Yi, Yunqi and other Bailing people were already very weak, and they were not opponents at all, and they were all captured alive by the Huns.

However, the Xiongnu army had already received orders before setting off, so they did not treat the Bailing people harshly, but only brought them back to the Xiongnu court in the west of the Wolf Juxu Mountain. In fact, this time it still saved them, if it weren't for the Hun army, they would probably freeze and starve to death on the grassland.
