Chapter 982: Bank Run

I don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing. Wu Yi, who was supposed to stand behind Marshal Zhang Tianwen, was sent to guard the door outside the tent.

Of course, the task of guarding the door is also very important, but it is not necessary to say which is more important than standing by his side.

Is Zhang Tianwen’s move to warn Wu Yi and blame Wu Yi for not telling him about Foyin before? Or is it a show for others to see?

In short, in the eyes of outsiders, Wu Yi was neglected. The reason for the neglect was that Wu Yi had a connection with the evil cult in the north. This is a fact. If the chiefs of the five tribes leave, Wu Yi may be liquidated.

Because of its powerful ability to spread, Buddhism is feared by the dynasty and called it an evil cult. There are only a few Buddhist temples in the dynasty, and there are very few monks, but it does not prevent them from spreading among the tribes in the north and becoming the spiritual guide of the tribes in the north.

Wu Yi has a connection with the evil cult. In the eyes of many people, he will definitely die. Those who knew a little bit of the news, even the garrison soldiers under Wu Yi, all stayed away from Wu Yi, fearing that they would be regarded as Wu Yi's faction and be punished.

In less than half a day, Wu Yi seemed to be a star of misfortune. Wherever he went, he scared away a group of people. It was not enough to explain it with the warmth and coldness of human nature.

However, this little thing was not a big deal for Wu Yi. Wu Yi was calm and consciously followed Zhang Tianwen's instructions. He came to guard outside the tent, as if it had no effect on him.

Inside the tent, there were wines and food, dancing and music, and a happy attitude; outside the tent, the north wind was whistling, the torches were scattered, there was no fireworks, and the cold was biting.

However, inside the tent, even though there were countless fine wines and delicacies, no one was willing to eat them. Who dared to sit on the gorgeous tables and stools? They all sat on half of their buttocks, worried that they would be too leisurely and delay their work.

Outside the tent, even though the north wind was cold, there was no need to intrigue with others. Nature was like a child, laughing when happy and crying when unhappy, unlike humans, who were half crying and half laughing, and wore one or even several masks.

Therefore, Wu Yi was more relaxed after being sent outside the tent. At least the dirty things inside had nothing to do with Wu Yi for the time being.

Moreover, with Wu Yi's keen hearing, it was not difficult to hear the conversation inside clearly. If he knew what they were talking about, then Wu Yi was one of the people who were exposed to top secrets. In fact, it didn't matter whether he was inside or outside, because they were all subordinates anyway.

Of course, for Wu Yi, it would be better if the person standing next to him was not a burly, big and strong man who kept staring at him. If he was a charming and gentle woman, it would be fine. What was the matter of being looked at by a man?

Needless to say, this man must be a member of the Rinan tribe. He was just wearing a simple tiger skin shirt, which fully reflected the physique of the Rinan people who were not afraid of the cold.

He held a huge axe, more than a head taller than the body of "Chen Yan". A pair of tiger eyes looked at Wu Yi, and he wanted to kill him as soon as possible. He was able to expose his killing intention so obviously, probably because he got the order from the clan leader. In addition, it should also represent the wishes of a large part of the people.

Zhang Tianwen said before that Wu Yi had a long relationship with Buddhism, and it was fate. He also said that this fate could promote today's negotiations. Wu Yi listened to the first sentence, and for others, it was the second sentence.

So, killing Wu Yi or humiliating him, does it mean that the fate is not deep and the negotiations do not need to be promoted?

There are many people who do not want this negotiation to succeed, and they can even be said to be the mainstream. After all, the two sides have been fighting for many years and dislike each other. It is not so easy to turn hostility into friendship. If it is really possible to turn hostility into friendship, how should the millions of troops and their families on both sides be settled?

This involves all aspects. Sometimes, it is better to let the dispute continue according to its inertia.

Zhang Tianwen sent Wu Yi away, which may not be in line with this will. It can even be said that Zhang Tianwen himself is one of the biggest beneficiaries of this war.

If there is no war in the north, then there is no need for the North Army to exist, just like the other three fronts. The reason why Zhang Tianwen, a front army marshal, can become the most important person in the court is because of the important position of the North Army.

Under the central government's strategy of "the cunning rabbit dies and the running dog is cooked", the lower level naturally mastered the skills of raising tigers and attracting bandits to make trouble.

Moreover, the tribes in the north are real tigers, not big cats. It is impossible to pacify this place without the power of a country. Even if someone impeached and attracted bandits to make trouble, there is no basis.

Surrounded by so much malice, Wu Yi is like an ignorant little lion breaking into a dangerous jungle. There are opponents everywhere, from the front and from the back.

The reason for falling to this point is all because of the few words said by the great master Du Zhen. In just a few words, Wu Yi's way to progress was almost cut off.

"You barbarian, do you dare to fight me?" This was the nth time that the strong man had provoked Wu Yi. Wu Yi had ignored him before and let him shout alone. Anyway, he didn't dare to cross the line here.

But at this moment, Wu Yi suddenly heard some movement inside the tent and a quarrel broke out. He responded with an attitude of intolerance: "Barbarian, you are bullying me too much. What do you want to compete?"

"Whatever we compete on the battlefield, we will compete!" The man answered cleverly, but this also meant one thing, that is, compared with the battlefield, life and death are not a big deal, and killing is allowed.

Wu Yi said: "In this case, let's report inside and just say that we will offer a toast to the military."

The strong man looked at Wu Yi with contempt. He didn't expect Wu Yi to really agree. However, this was just what he wanted. He was worried that Wu Yi would regret it, so he didn't report it and broke into the tent. He shouted: "The north is barren and there is no scenery. I dare to offer a toast to the military!"

The boldness of this strong man still surprised Wu Yi for a moment. Without hesitation, he immediately followed him in and said: "I also want to toast! Perform martial arts to liven up the atmosphere!"

Just like what Wu Yi heard outside, there was indeed a quarrel inside at this moment. The content of the quarrel was about the exchange of prisoners.

Zhang Tianwen advocated one for one, but several chiefs asked for more. After all, for them, all people were soldiers. If they died or escaped, the worst thing would be to have more children.

For the Daji Dynasty, it not only meant public opinion in the court and the public, but also the issue of soldiers' experience. The value of veterans who had gone through war was incomparable to that of new recruits.

Due to the particularity of this issue, it should have been possible to reach an agreement at the beginning of the discussion. However, a quarrel broke out over this issue, which shows the difficulty of the negotiations.
