A gust of cold wind blew by, and Zhao Yun carefully recalled the scene when Ye Feng asked him to go north, with mixed feelings in his heart.

In the end, the lord still wanted to give him some credit.

"My lord has good intentions. I can't repay his kindness even if I die!"

Zhang He patted him on the shoulder and said, "My lord, you have considered all aspects of the relationship clearly. We, the old people who followed you the earliest, can at least go down in history."

"I've come to terms with it. I've already gained a lot of fame by destroying the Xiongnu. If I destroy the Wuhuan, it won't be a credit, but will only make people jealous."

"I will simply give you the position of commander-in-chief. From now on, our commander's flag will be yours."

Zhao Yun hurriedly shook his head: "How can this be possible?"

"Brother Junyi, I came here basically to take the credit, how can I have the nerve to take this position from you again."

"No, absolutely not."

"Otherwise I really won't be able to see you again."

Zhang He laughed and said, "You are dreaming. What I mean is that you are the leader in destroying Wuhuan. I am willing to give up the position of commander-in-chief of the three armies, right?"

"I don't have that much courage."

Zhao Yun blushed, but still shook his head: "That won't work either. We agreed that you will be the main one and I will be the auxiliary one. How can I..."

Before he could finish his words, he heard a rapid sound of horse hooves. The two men put their jokes aside and looked into the distance, only to see a scout approaching quickly.

When he came to Zhang He and Zhao Yun, he dismounted and before he could salute, Zhao Yun interrupted him: "Don't do this empty ceremony, but is there urgent news from the Shi Kingdom?"

The scout panted and nodded frantically.

"Someone, get him some water, let him catch his breath."

"Please invite the general to come, the sooner the better."

When Xi Zhicai hurried over, the scouts told him in detail the news that a rebellion had broken out in the Shi Kingdom and that Tadun had become the King of Wuhuan.

After hearing this, Zhao Yun and Zhang He looked at Xi Zhicai with complicated and shocked expressions: "Military Advisor, you actually got everything right."

"But how could you have expected that there would be a battle between Tadun and Loulan, especially at this critical juncture when we are heading north?"

"Aren't they afraid of both sides being hurt and eventually being wiped out by us?"

Xi Zhicai smiled confidently: "There is no room for two tigers in one mountain."

"I know Tadun well. He was the adopted son of Qiuliju. He showed extraordinary talent in martial arts since he was young. Later, he fought on the battlefield and made great contributions to the Wuhuan."

"After Qiu Liju died in Youzhou, such a person actually had no ambition at all, gave up the throne to Loulan, was willing to hand over all his power, and stayed at home idle. Isn't this strange?"

"Why would a tiger give up the fat meat in its mouth?" "The reason is actually easy to guess. He is accumulating strength and planning big things."

"Although Wuhuan people believe that the strong are respected, they still have the basic principles of gratitude and filial piety."

"Tadun was adopted and nurtured by Qiuliju. If he used force to seize the position of Wuhuan King when Qiuliju was just buried, how could people believe him even if he could kill Loulan?"

"He has the ability, so he naturally has ambition. An ambitious person will not tolerate his subordinates pretending to obey but actually disobeying him. This will prevent him from achieving his ultimate goal."

“So he had no choice but to give up this position.”

Zhao Yun hesitated: "If I give up my position and hand over my military power, he won't be afraid that Loulan will firmly hold the position of Wuhuan King, and he will never have another chance and can only be inferior to them?"

Xi Zhicai shook his head: "Don't be afraid!"

"It's hard to change a person's character. He knows Loulan's character better. If he becomes the King of Wuhuan, his ambition will only expand and he will become even more unscrupulous."

"If his temperament changes drastically and he secures his position, Tadun will be unwilling to do so, but for Qiu Liju's sake, he will not take action against his only heir."

"If Loulan is narrow-minded and is ready to attack him, he will naturally not sit idly by and will definitely fight back."

"By then, all the Wuhuan people will know that Tadun had no choice but to rebel in order to save his life."

“Although there will be resistance from the club, the resistance from all parties will definitely be minimal.”

"It all depends on their respective methods. The experienced Tadun is absolutely sure to defeat Loulan. Then he can become the true King of Wuhuan and won't have to bear too much infamy."

"And everything happened just as he expected. Loulan really drifted away. As the saying goes, it is easy to change the country, but it is difficult to change one's nature."

"In just half a year, the Wuhuan people were full of complaints and were extremely dissatisfied with Loulan. This prompted many people to dissuade Tadun from leaving the mountains, but Tadun remained unmoved."

"It's not that he doesn't want to, but he knows that coming out at this time is not enough to replace Loulan. Since he can't achieve the ultimate goal, he simply doesn't come out and wait for the best time."

"The opportunity has come. With Wu Yanyong's surrender, we have finally got the chance to go north."

"Faced with the overwhelming force, he and Loulan did not think of uniting and cooperating sincerely, but instead devoured the opponent's power and fought against us with all their strength."

"It's a pity that Loulan is too young and is no match for Tadun who is so calculating and calculating."

"After all the intrigue, he lost, so it's normal for him to lose his life."

Zhao Yun and Zhang He took a deep breath and looked at Xi Zhicai in bewilderment: "Military Advisor, did you think of all this in advance?"

"How can this be?"

Xi Zhicai laughed and said, "Why else do you think I brought Wu Yanyong here and spread the news of his surrender?"
