Chapter 676: The Misfortune of the White Spirit Clan (3)
When Yun Yao heard this, she was stunned at first, and then couldn't help laughing, and said, "Is the husband joking?" How could it be me? I'm not from here at all, so how could the Great Master choose me to be his heir? ”
Gao Yuan said: "How is it impossible, your ability and talent are extremely high in the Bailing Clan, and there are beast pets like their holy beasts, and it is definitely not for nothing that the Great Zhu Master tried his best to invite you to return to the clan." ”
Yun Yao said: "That doesn't mean that the Great Zhu Master will choose me as his heir, maybe there are other things?" ”
Gao Yuan nodded, and spoke again about his inference about Yun Yao's life experience, and only after finishing speaking, did he say: "Although this is just my inference, but if I add my judgment just now, then the Great Zhu Master chose you as his heir, this inference is completely valid, and it is more perfect." It is possible that you grew up here since you were a child, and because of your outstanding talent, you were chosen by the Great Zhushi as his heir when you were a child, but it caused the jealousy of other people in the Bailing Clan, and they wanted to kill you, so someone took you and was forced to flee from the Bailing Clan, and later the Great Zhushi sent people out of the clan to look for you, hoping that you would return to the clan to inherit the Great Zhushi, but this attracted the attention of the people who wanted to kill you before, and this time they directly targeted the Great Zhushi, these are my speculations. ”
After listening to Gao Yuan's speech, Yun Yao couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and his heart beat faster, although Gao Yuan was just speculating, but the process before and after was very reasonable, there were no major flaws, and although Gao Yuan did not mention his family, Yun Yao was also a very smart person, if Gao Yuan's inference was correct, then his family was likely to die in the process of escaping from the Bai Ling Clan, so after being silent for a while, Yun Yao said: "Do you think that Feng Yi killed the Great Zhu Shi and seized the position of the Great Zhu Shi." ”
Gao Yuan said: "Although I don't have direct evidence, but Feng Hao arranged us to camp here, it is very telling that this place is surrounded by mountains and rivers, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the terrain is excellent, and it is not far from the Dazhai of the Bailing clan, and occupies the high point of the mountain, not only can observe the movement of Dazhai, but also threaten Dazhai from afar, and with our troops, unless we encounter the elite of a hundred battles like the Qin army, it is enough to resist the attack of ten times the enemy, Feng Hao arranged us to be stationed here, and also built us, don't go to Dazhai, It shows that he has a very serious suspicion of Feng Yi, so he is in this way. ”
Yun Yao said: "If Feng Hao really has doubts about Feng Yi, why don't you just sue us and discuss it with us." ”
Gao Yuan shook his head and said: "I think it's because Feng Hao is only suspicious now, Hua didn't go back to Dazhai, it is impossible to know the detailed situation, there is no actual evidence, it can't be sure that Feng Yi killed Da Zhushi, so he wants to go back to the village to understand some of the situation, and if it is really Feng Yi who killed Da Zhushi, this is not a glorious thing, of course, it is not easy to say bluntly, we are not here after all, such a thing, it is difficult for them to discuss with us." In addition, their children are all hostages in Dazhai, and they can't help but go back. ”
Yun Yao was silent for a while before she said, "If Feng Yi really killed the Great Zhushi, then wouldn't it be very dangerous for Feng Hao and Yun Jing to return to the village?" ”
Gao Yuan said: "Didn't I just say it? Now Feng Hao is only suspicious, there is no actual evidence, and only by returning to the village can he find out the truth. And even if the death of the Great Zhushi is really related to Feng Yi, it must be done in secret, and they will never dare to do it blatantly, and Feng Hao and Yun Jing are also the Zhu Shi of the Bailing Clan, and their status is not low, as long as they deal with it carefully, Feng Yi may not dare to disadvantage them, and after they enter the village, they are actually giving us an internal response, once there is something in the village, they can also send someone to sneak out of the village to inform us, or to pick them up, or to join forces inside and outside, so he first arranged us here temporarily, we can advance or retreat, and I think he should be clear, and I will understand his intentions. ”
Yun Yao smiled bitterly and said, "I really didn't expect that something like this would happen to the Hui this time. ”
Gao Yuan said: "Ah Yao, I know you don't want anything to happen to the Bai Ling Clan, but judging from the current situation, it is very likely that something serious has happened in the Bai Ling Clan, and you must be mentally prepared for this." ”
Yun Yao bit her lip, remembered the mystery of her life experience again, and finally nodded, "So what should we do now?" ”
Gao Yuan said: "Let's not act rashly for the time being, let's find out the environment here first, and the soldiers also need a certain amount of time to rest and recover, I think Feng Hao and Yun Jing will send someone out to contact us in a few days, and then we can improvise." ”
Yun Yao nodded and said, "Okay." ”
After three days in a row, it was peaceful, Feng Hao and Yun Jing did not send people to contact the plateau, and the Bai Ling clan did not make any movement, it seemed to be very peaceful.
However, the plateau observes the situation of the Bailing clan on the top of the mountain every day, and still finds a lot of suspicious points.
First of all, the Bailing Dazhai is closed every day, and the guards at the door are very strict, and it is rare for a few people to go out of the village in a day; The second is the situation in the village that can be seen from the top of the mountain, the doors and doors are all closed, and few people go out of the house to move, on the contrary, there are many people holding weapons and standing guard and sentry, and they really do five steps and one post, ten steps and one sentry, and the guards are heavily guarded; Thirdly, according to the reports of the Dai Army's detectives and the soldiers who patrol every day, it was found that many Bai Ling people were lurking and peeping near the Dai Army's camp, apparently monitoring and observing the movements of the Dai Army, but Gao Yuan ordered the soldiers not to pay attention to them.
This kind of trace shows that in the Bailing Clan, something really happened to be so tightly guarded, probably because of this, it was difficult for Feng Hao to send people out of the village to contact him. Therefore, it is difficult for the plateau to make a plan for the next step, but the plateau has made a decision, if it waits for a few more days, and there is still no movement, then take the initiative to attack, send people to Dazhai to find Feng Hao and Yun Jing, or send people to Feng Hao and Yun Jing to test the reaction of the Bai Ling clan?
However, the three days were not in vain, the fatigue of the soldiers was basically recovered, and many trees were cut down, more than 50 horses and more than 80 wooden fences were set up in the camp, and the bridges over the mountain streams were also built, and the defense of the whole camp was greatly increased.
In the past few days, Ling Feng has also been familiar with the nearby roads and distances, in addition to their way of coming, he has also found two other ways to leave here, so it also makes Gao Yuan feel at ease, at least the retreat is determined, if the situation is really wrong, he can still leave, at least he is already invincible.
There is also good news that after a few days of testing, there is no problem with the food, livestock and wine sent by the Bai Ling Clan, and they can be eaten with confidence, so that with the surplus food of the Dai Army, it can now be supported for more than 25 days, so the Dai Jun can not worry about food for the time being, so there is a lot of room for maneuver, at least it can spend a few more days with the Bai Ling Clan. Of course, relying on these grains, it is definitely not enough to return to Daijun, but the plateau is not enough, because along the way you can rely on hunting to sustain, and you can also rob the small tribes of the grassland.
In addition, according to the observation of the plateau, the Bailing clan's Dazhai is not very strong, it is not difficult to break through this Dazhai, and the combat effectiveness of the Bailing people is not strong, only a few Zhushi are really masters, and the rest of the Bailing people are actually ordinary people.
According to the understanding of the plateau, the population of the Bailing tribe is now about 70,000 or 80,000, the number of young and middle-aged men and women is about 20,000, and there are about 1,000 soldiers in peacetime. However, the Bailing clan did not have metal armor, and the weapons were very backward, there were only four or five thousand metal weapons, mainly spears and other weapons, and the bronze sword was less than a hundred, so even if the team was recruited, most of them only used wooden sticks or stone weapons, while the cavalry still used old-fashioned horse furniture, without horse shoes.
Overall, the force of the White Spirit Clan is not strong. Although there are less than 3,000 people in the Dai army now, the two sides really want to fight, and the plateau is fully sure to defeat the Bai Ling Clan, of course, it will take a certain amount of time, after all, the population base of the Bai Ling Clan is too large.
And for so many years, the Bailing tribe has been able to survive on the grassland and has not been annexed by other tribes, on the one hand, because they have hid in the mountains, and there are not many conflicts of interest with other grassland tribes. On the other hand, it still relies on the beast driving ability of the White Spirit Clan. And this is also the most heartfelt place on the plateau, if you really turn your face with the Bai Ling clan, how to deal with the beast exorcism of the Bai Ling clan, the plateau does not have a very good way for a while, although the horse and the wooden fence can resist the attack of the beast herd, but the blind defense is not the style of the plateau, how to deal with the beast herd in the attack, it is really a trouble.
Just as Gao Yuan was thinking, he saw Ling Feng hurriedly walk into the big tent and said, "Lord, there is something going on on the side of the Bailing Clan. ”
Gao Yuan was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "What's the matter?" ”
Ling Feng said: "Just now, a group of Bailing people came out of the village, and there was a group of people chasing them behind, and now they have already started fighting, not far from our camp, and according to the report of the detectives, among the group of Bailing people who were chased, several of them were Bailing people who were with us. ”
When Gao Yuan heard this, he immediately said, "You immediately lead the men and horses out of the camp, rescue them, and bring them back to the camp." ”
Ling Feng immediately said, "Yes." ”
Gao Yuan said again: "But for the pursuing Bailing clansmen, just drive them away, but try not to kill people, it doesn't matter how many of them are injured, anyway, there are people in the Bailing clan who are treated." ”
Ling Feng nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord, I will be measured." ”
