Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 511: All Caught

After fretfully waiting, it wasn’t considered waiting in vain. The people sent out ultimately brought back some news. After all, the northwest was that big and not just a courtyard surrounded on all sides. To want to completely block off using manpower wasn’t realistically possible. Even if the commonly used main roads were sealed off, the other areas, if someone wants to cross over, there was always a way.

Just, the news that was brought back wasn’t that wonderful. Fu Yun Ting had colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country. Jin Qinwang’s whereabouts were still unknown, don’t know exactly where he was, unknown whether it was having gotten detained by Fu Yun Ting somewhere, or directly given to Xiongnu, becoming the ‘token of friendship’ between him and Xiongnu.

This kind of outcome naturally made Le Cheng Emperor fly into a thundering rage. Useless trash, all a bunch of useless trash!

But since it was already confirmed that Fu Yun Ting has committed treason, then he can’t just do nothing at all. If he were to let him directly charge back with over two hundred thousand troops, without any preparations, won’t Qi Yuan suffer a great loss? That’s why, this while, he no longer hesitated, directly letting Qin Tian Ming lead troops to defend Tianmen Pass. For the time being, they can’t act rashly. After all, they still don’t know Fu Yun Ting’s true goal. Although Fu Yun Ting had over two hundred thousand troops under him, in war, it wasn’t just a battle of manpower. What the situation was like in the northwest, the imperial court was all well aware inside. If they really fight, Fu Yun Ting absolutely won’t have a good time. Everything else aside, just holding him up can all drain him to death. Moreover, Jin Qinwang was still in his hand. That’s why, Le Cheng Emperor more or less was somewhat ‘scared of shooting the rat in fear of breaking the vase’, just defending, not attacking, waiting for Fu Yun Ting’s next move. If he really wants to do something, he certainly won’t stay still.

And Qin Tian Ming just happened to be someone that knew a bit about Jin Qinwang’s plan. For him to become the main commander guarding Tianmen Pass, that was also the result of quite a few people working in the dark. Aside from Ruan Rui Zhong and Luo Pei Shan, naturally there was also the people ‘under’ Kang Qinwang. After all, in his understanding, Qin Tian Ming was still his person, so at this time, he naturally will assist fully.

Qin Tian Ming, because of having an understanding inside, on the surface, appeared exceptionally solemn, but on the inside, wasn’t the least bit nervous. Rather than saying he was guarding Tianmen Pass to guard against Fu Yun Ting, it was better to say that he was holding the lines for Fu Yun Ting. That’s why, colluding with the enemy and betraying the country and whatnot actually was just Jin Qinwang indirectly summoning reinforcement for Fu Yun Ting.

Qin Tian Ming reached Tianmen Pass. And the army of a hundred and fifty thousand also all took their positions. One has to know, this army wasn’t the least bit lacking, and the military supplies were also all in order. Compared to Fu Yun Ting’s treatment previously, it was so much better. However, these things, aside from the food, on this side, certainly won’t be used. However, the other things, heheh, actually those were all prepared for the people beyond the pass.

That’s why, Li Hong Yuan’s preparation was absolutely thorough.

When everything was ready on this side, West Xiongnu’s Daxian Wang also received news.

Even if Daxian Wang’s self-cultivation and composure has always been strong, in this moment, it still broke, “Qi Yuan added a hundred and fifty thousand more troops, already reaching Tianmen Pass?” The originally still considered handsome appearance, because of rising anger, cracked about to split open. The blue veins on his forehead, neck, and back of his hand suddenly emerged, his appearance actually further matching with Xiongnu people’s temperament and image.

Seeing Daxian Wang appear like this, the person that came to report aside from carefully affirming his words, even his breathing all slowed.

Daxian Wang nearly vomited blood in anger, some towards Qi Yuan, but even more towards Xiongnu’s interior. If not for that bunch dragging him down, how could they still be blocked outside Tianmen Pass by Qi Yuan’s army. And if they’d long broken through Tianmen Pass, Qi Yuan’s current military power, even if far surpassing their own, he wouldn’t fear either, and he also had ways to drag it out for a long time. When time comes, even if the other countries were in the midst of internal conflict, they would certainly still want a share of the pie. And regardless of what they do, as long as they dispatch troops, dividing Qi Yuan’s forces, Xiongnu will be able to devour Qi Yuan, this piece of fatty meat.

TN: All

But now, their king, the brother that he grew up with, all produced suspicions towards him, just short of directly summoning him back to the royal court. And this wasn’t all. That brother’s eldest son was already leading two divisions of cavalry on the way here. If it was just purely reinforcement, Daxian Wang naturally would be happy, but the problem was that it was clearly coming to divide the authority.

When two armies cross in battle, if the main commander doesn’t have absolute authority, then the aftermath will be quite serious, especially when it was even someone specifically trying to go against you. If you point east, he will go west. As such, even if having more people, in the end, one would still just suffer defeat.

That’s why, this ‘reinforcement army’, it was better to not have.

Just, what Daxian Wang didn’t know was that something even more detrimental to him already happened in the West Xiongnu royal court.

The West Xiongnu King received the latest news. That good younger brother of his, because of overgrowing ambitions, wasn’t satisfied with his arrangements, actually colluding with Qi Yuan, intending to usurp his power and steal the throne, and to this end, promised Qi Yuan large amounts of benefits.

Towards this bit, the West Xiongnu King completely didn’t doubt at all, because that was all information he’d obtained from his own special channels.

This kind of thing, how can it be tolerated? He immediately sent out another son, taking a division of the most elite troops. Absolutely must have that good younger brother of his brought back. If the other party resists, just kill without question.

At the same time, a small but extremely violent troop of cavalry crossed over North Xiongnu’s border from West Xiongnu, deeply entering North Xiongnu, burning, killing, and plundering, their means extremely ruthless. The news very quickly passed to North Xiongnu’s royal court. North Xiongnu King heavily heaved in anger, “Good, good, very good———”

In front it was saying to combine forces to divide up Qi Yuan, yet in the back, stabbed him as such. The matter last time, he’d already endured, yet now, they actually dared to up the severity. Really think that at present, North Xiongnu was weaker than West Xiongnu, thus this unbridled?

“Since that’s the case, we’ll just wait and see!”

And on Li Hong Yuan’s side, since it was ‘going missing’, he naturally still put on the act, taking Jing Wan to another place.

“Master, everything is in order.”
