The Sims: The Emperor Raising Project

Chapter 145 Falling from the Throne
This time, Qiu Liju temporarily handed over the command to Tadun, not for the sake of throwing the blame, but because his body and mind have been severely injured in the case of successive defeats, especially after hearing that his old nest was taken over by the Han army. Afterwards, he even had deep doubts about his abilities.

Qiu Liju was not worried that Tadun would take the opportunity to seize power, because what Wuhuan was currently facing was a mess, and Qiu Liju wished that Tadun would take the initiative to take over Wuhuan's mess, which had already caused him a lot of trouble.

Ta Dun raised his head to look at the gray-faced Qiu Liju, sighed lightly, then patted his hand lightly, and comforted him: "The clan's land was attacked, and Wuhuan's losses are not insignificant, but the Han army will surely There is no time to surprise the small tribes surrounding the clan area. After we lead the army to withdraw northward, we will integrate the small tribes distributed in the surrounding areas. At that time, after a few years of recuperation, Wuhuan will once again become a A force that the world cannot underestimate."

Qiu Liju couldn't help smiling miserably when he heard the words, although he felt that Tadun was talking nonsense, he still nodded his head approvingly, and then lightly patted Tadun's shoulder, saying: "I'm afraid Lou Ban is useless, Wuhuan will rely on you from now on, you should encourage him."

It was originally a very happy thing, but Ta Dun couldn't be happy anyway.

Qiu Liju's words, to Tadun's ears, were like painting a big cake.

Ta Dun raised his head and glanced in the direction of Pingcheng, and sighed: "Escape first, then it's not too late to say anything else."

After Ta Dun said, he immediately left Qiu Liju and ordered people to beat the drums of the generals to discuss matters.

After a long time.

All the generals went to the big tent of the Chinese army to meet Qiu Liju.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him with unfriendly expressions, Qiu Liju shrunk his neck subconsciously, like a child who had done something wrong, drooping his head, without saying a word.

At the beginning, Qiu Liju resisted the opinions of all the people and forcibly coerced the major tribes to go south to invade the frontiers. He promised with strong words that the three counties would be easily included in this trip south.

However, the result was just the opposite. Qiu Liju not only failed to take the three counties into his bag, but also lost his old nest. This wave of operations really lost his wife and lost his army. Even the relatives of the subordinates also suffered.

The generals in front of him were just looking at him with unfriendly expressions, and they were already trying their best to restrain their emotions. Otherwise, in terms of the current results, even if they swallowed Qiu Liju alive, it would not be too much at all. .

Ta Dun silently looked at everyone's faces, and then stood up helplessly to be a peacemaker, saying: "The Han people are treacherous, and they are hard to guard against. No one wants to see the current situation. I have led the army to retreat north, as for the future, I need to wait until after I have escaped for a day before making a long-term plan."

A young commander who was quite prestigious in Wuhuan frowned and looked at Ta Dun, and said, "Tell me about the specific plan."

"You know, that Zhang Xun is not someone who is easy to get along with."

After being hit repeatedly by this handsome young man named Wu Mutai, his attitude towards Tadun and Qiu Liju was no longer respectful at all.

Facing Wu Mutai's questioning, Ta Dunhan patiently explained: "We need someone to lead an army here to contain Zhang Xun, so that he will not be able to lead an army to chase us."

As soon as Ta Dun finished speaking, the eyes of all the generals fell on Qiu Liju in unison.

Qiu Liju raised his head silently, glanced at everyone's faces, then nodded helplessly, and volunteered: "Leave me 5000 troops, and I will stop the Han army. You should lead the army to the north as soon as possible." Get out."

"The farther you go, the better." Qiu Liju said weakly.

Among the generals, there were many people who were loyal to Qiu Liju. Hearing this, he immediately stood up and bowed to Qiu Liju, and tried his best to persuade him: "Your Excellency, how can you put yourself in danger?"

"Humph!"

Hearing this, Wu Mutai snorted heavily, and said, "Fart's rich body is nothing more than an old and incompetent person."

"you"

The man named Wuji pointed at Wu Mutai with a face of anger when he heard the words, and said, "You bastard!"

Qiu Liju saw that the two were about to start a fight if they disagreed, so he immediately waved his hands impatiently at the two, saying: "This matter is decided here, there is no need to discuss it."

"As Lord Wuhuan, I made a big mistake because I didn't notice it for a while. The matter has come to this point. I should stand up and protect the tribe in person. This matter is decided here. You can step back for now."

When everyone heard the words, they nodded in unison, and immediately withdrew from the tent of the Chinese army.

Looking at the backs of the people leaving, Tadun narrowed his eyes slightly, and said coldly: "This group of wolf-hearted people who only succeed in doing nothing but only make trouble worse, are really hopeless."

"People are unpredictable."

Qiu Liju staggered down the throne, came to Ta Dun's side and stood shoulder to shoulder with him, and said: "After I die, if you can reintegrate the tribe, then integrate them together, and then take it slowly, if you can't Control the generals."

Qiu Liju suddenly paused, then heaved a long sigh, and said: "It is a wise choice to take the initiative to seek refuge with the lord of the three counties."

Tadun was startled when he heard the words, and looked at Qiu Liju with shock and disbelief in his eyes. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only turn a thousand words into a helpless sigh, and immediately Nodded silently.

Qiu Liju's words are very in line with the Hu people's consistent style, like a wolf in their prime, and a sheep when they are weak, this is the survival law unique to the Hu people.

Qiu Liju and Ta Dun stood in front of the large tent of the Chinese army for a long time, during which they only occasionally whispered a few words, most of the time it was Qiu Liju who was talking and Ta Dun listening.

Time passed slowly amidst Qiu Liju's earnest instructions.

After about half an hour or so.

Wu Ji came forward to report to Qiu Liju, blushing and said: "The army has assembled, and the generals have left five thousand old and weak soldiers."

As Uji said, he lowered his head silently. He really didn't have the face to go on, so he could only cover up his embarrassment in this way.

Qiu Liju smiled nonchalantly, then patted him on the shoulder lightly, and said: "Ta Dun is my closest person, you must help him well in the future."

Wuji shook his head silently when he heard the words, then looked firmly into Qiu Liju's eyes, and said, "I would like to stay and die with my lord."

"No."

When Qiu Liju heard the words, he immediately flew into a rage, and said to Wuji in an unquestionable tone: "You are still young, Wuhuan needs you to survive and work together to rebuild your homeland, and you must not think of committing suicide again."

Hearing this, Wu Ji looked at Qiu Liju with tears in his eyes, and then, under Qiu Liju's gaze, he nodded reluctantly, and said, "I will obey the orders of the adults." After finishing speaking, he nodded his head Without returning, he left the Chinese military tent.

Looking at the back of Wuji leaving, Qiu Liju sighed helplessly, took Tadun's arm casually, pushed him outward, and said, "Let's go, if it's late, it's too late."

Ta Dun nodded silently, then knelt down on both knees, gave Qiu Liju three heavy kowtows, then got on his horse with Qiu Liju's help, and reluctantly bid farewell to Qiu Liju.

It wasn't until Ta Dun completely disappeared from his sight that Qiu Liju reluctantly withdrew his gaze. When he looked at the five thousand wounded old and weak soldiers, there was an undisguised determination in his eyes. He was already mentally prepared to die on the battlefield.
