Chapter 1005 Conspiracy

The cold wind was biting, the torch was swaying, and the cold light of the sword was reflected on everyone's faces, adding a bit of chill to the situation.

However, the quarrelsome scene gradually became calmer with Wu Yi's arrival. Everyone was waiting for Wu Yi's decision. With this battle, Wu Yi completely gained the prestige that his position of power should have. No one in this army can disobey him.

As mentioned before, the reason why the prisoners made trouble this time was because they didn't have enough to eat. It was basically impossible to solve the problem.

It's hard for a clever woman to make a living without rice. There is already little food, and her soldiers don't even have enough to eat. How can she share it with them? These prisoners are not her basic plate, at least not for now.

The problem cannot be solved, but it does not mean that it cannot be alleviated. As long as a few of the thorns are removed, comforted, and most of the people stabilized, the chaos can be calmed down.

In fact, Wu Yi also followed this strategy. However, the current food and clothing still had to be guaranteed. Wu Yi could not turn it into food. Without food, all promises would be empty words.

What should I do if I don’t have enough food? Kill horses for food! Let’s pass these days.

Although they are captured war horses, they are still treasured! Wu Yi was heartbroken to kill him like this.

When this decision was made, many people around him were opposed to it, and many suggested killing him on the spot. Those prisoners understood the meaning and were even more nervous, and conflicts were about to break out!

Wu Yi argued loudly with them, and finally insisted on carrying out this idea. After Wu Yi eased the tension, the tension of these prisoners gradually eased, and they were no longer in a tense posture.

Even though the soldiers were dissatisfied with this, they could only act accordingly, boiling water, plucking hair, and sharpening knives. The sharp edge of the knife pierced directly into the heart of the war horse, and the hot blood gurgled. gushing out.

It is actually extremely inhumane to let a soldier kill a horse for food, because one moment, he was your comrade-in-arms, and at this moment, you are piercing the knife into his heart, which is completely merciless.

I'm just hungry, and I want to chop off my own hands, roast them, and eat them, let alone my comrades! Canglin knows enough about etiquette, but when you have a flat stomach, no steamed buns will help you!

That night, because of Wu Yi's order, many people killed the war horses in tears.

In fact, there were some corpses of dead horses on the battlefield before, but not only were they mixed with all kinds of dirt, they were also mixed with human flesh and blood. No one would want to find such "food" at all.

This crisis was over for the time being. A total of hundreds of war horses were killed. In front of this group of gluttons, not even a drop of broth was left. In order to feed these prisoners, Wu Yi's daily consumption was really too great.

In addition, killing the war horses for food will also expose the news of one's own food shortage to the enemy, and the Rinan defenders may launch a second offensive.

Wu Yi thought about this. It cannot be said that Wu Yi did not take advantage of this and rob a wave of Rinan tribe defenders. They had a lot of sheep.

Someone had used this to advise Wu Yi before. Among the many serious xenophobic suggestions, it was a breath of fresh air. Wu Yi finally felt that he had a confidant by his side.

Early the next morning, Wu Yi specifically found this person.

This man had not been well-known in the army before, nor was he a bandit leader. Wu Yi did not notice him at all. At this moment, looking at this man, well, he was still completely featureless, with a square face and delicate features, and he could not be remembered. What words are used to describe this person.

It is hard to imagine that such a person could come from the gangster camp.

However, Wu Yi didn't bother to ask about his past, and he might not get an answer if he asked.

"What is your name?" Wu Yi asked seriously as he sat on the chair. This is a talented person, and Wu Yi is willing to treat him with courtesy.

The man knelt down and saluted and said: "The name given to me by a villain is not worthy of the ears of an adult!"

"Given to me," Wu Yi frowned slightly, considered it, and said with a smile, "It's a bit rare!"

What's so strange is that my surname is a common surname of the Rinan tribe. This simple-looking man is actually a noble! Either he lied, or he had something else to hide.

"My mother is a daughter of the Dajima people who was kidnapped to the north, and my father is a nobleman of the Ninan tribe! But he died in the war a few years ago."

"No wonder he has some knowledge!" Wu Yi said clearly. The meaning of Yu Wu's words had already hinted that he was an illegitimate child.

My mother was born in a humble family. She probably had a bad childhood and was bullied by others. She ended up being a gangster. This may also be related to the internal struggles within the Yuwu clan.

As for Yu Wuci's last sentence, Wu Yi began to think about who among the Yuwu clan had died in battles in recent years? Of course, it does not rule out that every word Yu Wuci said is a lie.

No matter what his identity is, he still wants to overthrow the world by his side. Wu Yi asked: "You said that killing horses for food will cause the Rinan tribe to attack again. In your opinion, when will the Rinan tribe attack again?" Attack? How should we respond?"

This is a question of advice. If Yu Wuci can answer it accurately, it will not be difficult to find a career under Wu Yi.

"The news of the horse killing will come out, if it's tonight, or within five days!" Yu Wu said emphatically, his eyes as bright as a torch, and he didn't even blink.

Wu Yi sneered and said: "Previously, we defeated the Rinan bandits and killed them in a panic. Do they still dare to sneak attack at this time?"

"The Rinan people are all determined to retaliate for their anger. What's more, the current situation is extraordinary. How can the leader dare to think that he is perfect?" Yu Wuci did not panic at all. It is not an exaggeration to say that it was a tit-for-tat confrontation.

Hearing the words "Now is an extraordinary time", Wu Yi knew that this person was not comparable to those other fools. He really knew the general situation. It can be seen that the battle of Tianlang City was a political battle, and fighting promoted negotiations.

Wu Yi stood up and bowed to Yu Wuci without any formalities, bowing almost 90 degrees, and said: "Please teach me, sir!"

See, even the address was changed. Sir, Yu Wuci successfully gained Wu Yi's respect with a word.

Asked Yu Wuci to sit next to him, Wu Yi personally poured wine for him, and after some push and pull, the atmosphere was already very harmonious.

Yu Wuci smiled and said: "In my opinion, the general must have seen that killing horses will attract a sneak attack from the Rinan tribe, but it is just to take advantage of the situation and take the opportunity to seek the other party's food and money!"

Wu Yi listened, smiled and said nothing, waiting for Yu Wuci to continue speaking. In comparison, before, there was internal strife on his side, and the defense was empty. Even if the people of the Rinan tribe knew that Wu Yi had arranged it, they would bite the bait. This is an open conspiracy.

This time, although it was also an open conspiracy, would they still be fooled after the previous losses? Wu Yi didn't know, but it was obviously much more difficult.
