Volume 12: Fierce Battle in Western Regions Chapter 348: Secret Agreement Between Four Clans Part 2

  "The two clan leaders came to Xiao Jiang's place, I wonder what they want. Xu Haifeng smiled slightly and didn't respond to Nan Yi's words, but instead asked with a warm smile."

  The eyes of the two old men exchanged a swift glance in mid-air, and seeing that Xu Haifeng avoided talking about that sentence, they knew he had such an intention.

  They simultaneously understood one thing in their hearts: The Liu Clan's imperial dynasty was truly finished.

  No matter how formidable Liu's family is, can they surpass this unparalleled genius in front of them?

  "Cough...cough..." Nanyi Liao coughed and said, "Respected elder Murong, please speak."

  Murong Zhen was taken aback, and in his heart, he cursed loudly. All the flattering words were spoken by you, but when it came to that embarrassing thing, you became a turtle with its head shrunk back into its shell.

  However, Xu Haifeng's eyes were fixed on him like electricity, apparently having heard Nan Yilian's words and concentrated his attention on himself.

  He smiled bitterly and finally said, "General Xu, we two came here not only on behalf of the Xianbei, Di, Qiang and Jie tribes, but also on behalf of all the nationalities oppressed and driven by the Huns on the grasslands."

  His words carried a hint of desolation and a thread of bleak old age.

  "For hundreds of years, for hundreds of years. On the vast grasslands, it has always been the Xiongnu tribe that reigns supreme. The best pastures, the best water sources, the best horses, and the best women. As long as they are the best, they have always been occupied by the Xiongnu people."

  Xu Haifeng nodded deeply, with a sympathetic expression. His gaze seemed to be fixed on Murong Yu's face, but in fact, most of his attention was secretly focused on the strongest member of the Di tribe, Nan Yi'e.

  His intuition clearly told him that among these two people, Nan Yi was the real ruthless one.

  Although his performance can only be described as humble, it is far inferior to Murong Yu's elegance and poise.

  But Xu Haiyang had a strange and peculiar feeling that required careful attention.

  At this time, when Murong Yu was full of grief and indignation, recounting the evil deeds of the Xiongnu, Nanyi Bian's face also had a similar expression, but in his heart he was as calm as an ancient well, and deep within his eyes there was even a hint of mockery.

  If Xu Haifeng hadn't gone through the Taiyuan War, his mental strength would have made a huge leap forward, and it's really hard to tell.

  The hint of a smile in Nan Yi's eyes was directed at Murong Yu.

  Xu Haifeng clearly read the disdain and ridicule contained within.

  The old man took a deep breath and said, "We are not convinced, but we have no choice. Because the Xiongnu people are the masters of the grasslands, our combined strength is only half of theirs. We... can't beat them."

  "Yes...can't win." As if it was a deep feeling, Nan Yi's expression also turned gloomy, and he blurted out.

  But this expression only lasted for a brief moment, and his eyes returned to normal.

  And in the depths of that soul, sparks of danger are jumping about.

  "This time in the war of Tuyuhun, our four tribes did not do their best. If we return to the grasslands now, I fear that disaster will befall us immediately." Murong Sheng sighed heavily.

  The Xiongnu's reputation as invincible had been deeply etched in his mind, despite their crushing defeat this time. However, the lingering aura of their centuries-long dominance still loomed over Murong Chui's heart, weighing heavily on him and making him dare not speak of rebellion lightly.

  Xu Haifeng, who had always attached great importance to Nan Yilian, unexpectedly found that the faintly discernible contempt had reappeared in his eyes.

  Xu Haifeng suddenly realized.

  The situation of the Di tribe on the vast grassland is not better than that of the Xianbei tribe. If he wants to mock Murong Yu, then at the same time, he is also mocking himself.

  However, Nan Yi Xiao just ridiculed Murong Ruo, and it was his weakness that he was laughing at.

  Facing the powerful Xiongnu people, Murong Chui was filled with an inner fear, and did not dare to have even a slight thought of resistance.

  However, Nan Yi Liao was different, for in his heart he hid a flame, a flame that could burn across the entire prairie.

  He has been lying in wait, waiting for an opportunity.

  Because he knew that with every rise there must be a fall, and no nation could maintain an ever-lasting prosperity.

  Waiting for opportunities, waiting for opportunities to replace them, this is what Nanyi Pei really thinks.

  This person is extremely ambitious.

  If Nan Yi knew that it was because of his own secret expressions that allowed Xu Haifeng to guess his thoughts, he would definitely regret it.

  On the vast grassland, there was such a person who went to deal with the Xiongnu people, and it may not necessarily be a bad thing.

  Xu Haifeng's face showed a gentle smile, he lightly clenched his fist and said: "Today's battle, the Xiongnu people suffered heavy losses, you two don't have to worry about this."

  Murong Yu sighed and his face looked somewhat embarrassed, wanting to speak but stopping himself.

  "What the elder has to say, just speak directly, as long as it's within my power, I definitely won't let you two down." Xu Haifeng naturally saw his embarrassment and immediately spoke up to help him out.

  With a grateful glance at Xu Haifeng, Murong Rui said in a low voice: "We've all discussed it and hope to return to the grasslands as soon as possible, so we can make preparations as early as possible."

  "Go back early? Of course, there's no problem." Xu Haifeng gave him a strange look, this matter, to him, was also something he couldn't ask for.

  "We are deeply grateful for your permission, General." Murong Yu and Nan Yi-Liang stood up at the same time and bowed deeply to him.

  Xu Haifeng hastily stood up and returned a courtesy, just about to speak, when suddenly he heard Nan Yilian say: "Commander Xu, the result of our discussion is that we want to take the road to the Northern Great Camp, please agree."

  Xu Haifeng's head was slightly raised, his mouth corners lightly curled up, looking extremely confident.

  It turned out that their intention was actually so.

  The road leading to the grassland is the shortest route belonging to the northern large camp, and the road conditions are also the best.

  What they aimed at was this road.

  Although all roads leading to the northern camp were guarded by the Xiongnu people, anyone could understand that Xu Haifeng would never sit idly by.

  At this time, I'm afraid that in the northern country, a bloody storm had already been stirred up. When they learned of the defeat of the Xiongnu people, almost every place raised the banner of righteousness and resisted the Xiongnu, as if it had become a new trend.

  Even on the main road leading to the grasslands, a great banner of resistance was raised.

  So, that road is not easy to walk.

  They came here to ask themselves for a pass.

  At this moment, in today's north, it is probably only their own great flag that can escort them to leave safely and quickly.

  "Alright, since it's the request of both clan leaders, I naturally won't refuse."

  Upon hearing Xu Haifeng's immediate agreement, they all let out a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Commander."

  "No need to be polite, I'd like to ask the two clan leaders, what plans do you have after returning to your noble families?"

  Murong Chui let out a bitter laugh and said, "Of course we will be fully prepared for battle. I just hope that Modu won't vent the flames in his belly on our heads."

  Nan Yi's eyebrows furrowed slightly, revealing a hint of disapproval.

  Xu Haifeng immediately understood and smiled, asking: "So, in the eyes of the old clan leader, will Modun and Haminchi forgive the nobles?"

  Murong Yu sank into thought for a moment, his lips moving twice, but he didn't say anything.

  "Hmph..." Nanyi Liao sneered, saying: "Among them, are there any good people who don't bear grudges? It's not the virtue of the Xiongnu to forgive and forget. Perhaps they won't do anything in a few years, but after a few years, once they recover their strength..."

  "Heh heh......" Nan Yi's voice grew colder: "I guarantee, they will definitely settle the score after autumn, and use us as scapegoats."

  Murong Yu's face turned ugly and gradually turned iron-green. After a while, he finally nodded heavily.

  "In that case, I'd like to ask the clan leader, what are your plans then?"

  Xu Haifeng looked him straight in the eye and asked bluntly.

  Nan Yi's heart skipped a beat, and the divine light in Xu Haifeng's eyes seemed to be able to see directly into his soul, giving him a strange feeling of being seen through.

  He stared blankly back, but saw a sincere look in her eyes.

  Nan Yi's mind was filled with all sorts of thoughts, but in an instant, she made up her mind.

  "I am old and weak, but I wish to unite all ethnic groups, work together with one heart, and jointly resist the Xiongnu."

  He took a deep breath, and Murong Zhuo's expression changed several times. Nanyi Liang had actually said such words in front of Xu Haifeng, so his intention...

  "What a Nan Yi Liao, worthy of being the hero of the Di tribe!" Xu Haifeng gave him a thumbs up and said loudly.

  "Too kind."

  Xu Haifeng's gaze shifted to Murong Zhan's face, and he said slowly: "As the ancients said, when the lips are gone, the teeth feel cold. I wonder what plans the head of the Murong clan has in mind?"

  Murong's heart moved slightly, and he immediately understood that Xu Haifeng was actually helping Nan Yirang.

  His eyes circled around the two faces, but his heart was hesitant and undecided.

  "This time in the battle, General gained a lot. Nanyi Liezu, I think of setting up a trading point on the grassland to exchange goods with your tribe, using our salt, iron, silk and other goods to trade for your cattle, horses and sheep. What do you think?"

  Nan Yi was overjoyed in his heart, he never thought that Xu Haifeng would actually support him by deploying troops and horses.

  If this trading point is successfully established, the Di tribe will inevitably have a rich source of wealth and will no longer be economically strangled by others like before.

  And Xǔ Hǎifēng said this with a purpose that is clearly more than just a transaction point.

  He was telling Murong Rui that as long as he could form an alliance with the Di tribe, then this trading post would naturally have a share for him.

  But if they part ways with the Di tribe, then there will be only one consequence.

  As the head of a tribe, he naturally knew what a stable trading point meant for the Xianbei in the future.

  The huge benefits contained therein made his heart skip a beat.

  Murong Chui let out a long sigh, took a step forward and bowed to Xu Haifeng, saying: "My tribe will naturally advance and retreat with the Di tribe."
