After listening to the advice, I rebelled and became an emperor of all ages

Chapter 291: Walking into a Trap, Each with Their Own Thoughts

In the Northern Barbarian King's court, the wind was cold and the sky was covered with dark clouds. The entire court was shrouded in a haze.

Hu Yanhuan sat on a tall wooden chair, staring at the map in front of him, thinking secretly in his heart.

At this moment, Hu Yanzhong stepped forward and whispered, "General, according to the previous plan, the rebel army has been deliberately led to Hailan Ranch."

During this period of time, they have discovered traces of the rebel army. In fact, the rebel army is now very close to the Northern Barbarian King's Court.

In order not to expose the position of the royal court, Hu Yanhuan did not choose to attack immediately, but deliberately leaked his tracks to lead the rebels to their ambush.

For them, Hailan Ranch is an ideal target, and for the Northern Barbarians, it will be a great opportunity for an ambush.

As for their actual migration destination, it was actually somewhere else.

"Yes!" Hu Yanhuan nodded solemnly, looking firmly towards the north. Things were developing step by step just as he had planned.

His heart was full of anticipation, as if he had already seen the scene of the rebels falling into his encirclement. This imagination made him feel an irrepressible excitement.

"General, do you really think this will work?" Hu Yanzhong asked with some concern. He knew that the leader, Lin Zhongyun, was smart and decisive. If the rebels noticed anything, the plan might fail.

"The key to success lies in whether we can seize the opportunity and whether we have a big enough bait." Hu Yanhuan's voice was low and firm. "As long as they enter our encirclement, there will be no way out."

He seemed to have seen that scene, where the rebel army was forced into numerous difficulties, surrounded by enemies, and finally had no choice but to surrender.

Thinking of this, Hu Yanhuan felt a surge of anger in his heart, especially when he thought that he could take this opportunity to avenge his father, which made it even more difficult for him to control himself.

His father was killed in a battle with the rebels, leaving him with endless hatred and pain. He vowed to avenge his father, and this plan was the opportunity for him to realize his wish.

"Continue to monitor the movements of the rebels and be ready to act at any time." Hu Yanhuan ordered, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

At this time, after being tempered by these things, he was no longer the hesitant young general, but had become ambitious, decisive and brave.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Hu Yanzhong responded respectfully. Although he was full of confidence in the plan, he still felt a little uneasy.

"But will that old guy Hailanhak really listen to the general's strategy?" Huyan Zhong asked cautiously, with a hint of worry in his tone.

He had no problem with Hu Yanhuan's plan, but what really worried him was Hailanhak's attitude.

This time they set an ambush at Hailan Ranch. If they want to attack from both sides, Hailan Hake's attitude becomes crucial.

Although Hailanhak had behaved obediently before, there was no guarantee that he had some other intentions behind the scenes.

Huyan Zhong's words made Huyan Huan's face suddenly darken. He understood that Huyan Zhong's worries were groundless. If Hailanhak regretted at the critical moment, the entire plan would be fatally affected.

Although he felt uneasy, he did not want to waver in his determination.

At this moment, a confidant hurried into the tent, handed a letter to Hu Yanhuan mysteriously, and whispered in his ear: "Your Highness, this is a secret letter from the Khan."

Hu Yanhuan's face suddenly brightened, as if he saw a turning point. He quickly opened the envelope and scanned the contents of the letter eagerly.

As the handwriting became clearer, he felt excited. "Now we have a solution," he said, almost unable to hold back, his voice full of excitement.

He handed the letter to Hu Yanzhong, a rare smile on his face, and his tone became firm: "The Khan has agreed to our plan and brought a secret order. I don't think Hailanhak will dare to have any other ideas now."

Hu Yanzhong took the letter and read it carefully. His brows gradually relaxed and the doubts in his heart seemed to dissipate.

Chagan Uli enjoys the highest prestige among the northern barbarians. No matter how ambitious Hailanhak is, he will inevitably be cautious in the face of Chagan Uli's prestige. This means that their plan will go smoothly.

"In that case, we must speed up our actions." Hu Yanhuan's voice was filled with urgency. "I will go to see him in person."

Now that he had Chagan Uli's secret order, he didn't believe that Hailanhak would not give in.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Hu Yanzhong responded, and a flame of hope ignited in his heart. He knew that as long as he had the support of the Khan, victory would not be far away.

……

At the same time, Hailanhaq also received news from Chagan Uli.

"General, according to the report from the spies we intercepted last time, Chagan Uli is planning to attack the rebels at Hailan Ranch from the front and back together with Huyan Huanjin." Hailan Taish glanced cautiously at Hailanhak who was resting with his eyes closed, with a hint of caution in his tone.

"Humph!"

Upon hearing this, Hailanhak snorted coldly, and opened his slightly closed eyes to emit a fierce cold light.

His sharp eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, making people shudder. "That old guy is not dead after all."

Hailanhak thought to himself that Chagan Wuli was a shrewd and calculating person. If he really joined forces with Hu Yanhuan, things would become more difficult. He knew that he had to act cautiously to avoid being passive.

"not only that!"

Hailantaishi looked conflicted. After thinking for a while, he mustered up the courage to say, "And according to what the spy said, the Khan plans to settle accounts with my Hailan tribe after destroying the rebels, especially the general."

"Damn it! I was so loyal to Chagan Uli!"

Upon hearing this, Hailanhak's face suddenly changed and he felt a surge of anger in his heart.

He never expected that his decades-long friendship with Chagan Uli could not withstand a few words from a young boy.

Although the Hailan tribe has a prominent status among the northern barbarians, Chagan Uli's prestige should not be underestimated.

Hailanhak knew that if Chagan Wuli really decided to settle accounts with the Hailan tribe after annihilating the rebels, the consequences would be disastrous. As the leader of the Hailan tribe, he would undoubtedly bear the brunt and become the target of public criticism.

Although he has won over many tribes during this period, most of these tribes are opportunists. Once Chagan Uli wants to deal with the Hailan tribe, these people will definitely be the first to turn against him.

The Hailan tribe has become very powerful in the Northern Barbarians over the years, which not only aroused the suspicion of Chagan Wuli, but also attracted the covetousness of other tribes. Those people are all looking forward to the fall of the Hailan tribe so that they can take advantage of the opportunity.

Therefore, in the current situation, the only ones who can help him and can be trusted are their Hailan tribe themselves.

"It seems that the Khan has been dissatisfied with me for a long time." Hailanhak said coldly, with a hint of sarcasm and anger in his tone, "Now we can only rely on our Hailan tribe ourselves!" "General, what should we do?" Hailantaish asked worriedly. He knew that Hailanhak always had a long-term vision and would definitely have a response plan.

Hailanhak pondered for a moment and made up his mind. He knew that the current situation was complicated and he had to deal with it cautiously, but he couldn't just sit there and wait for death.

"Pass the order down and let the tribe be prepared to deal with emergencies at any time." His voice was low and firm, and it was obvious that he had prepared for the worst.

"Now that we are facing a powerful enemy, even if Chagan Wuli knows that I have evil intentions, he will definitely not attack me."

Hailanhak nodded slightly, with a hint of coldness in his eyes, "At least we are safe for the time being."

"Yes, General!" Hailantais took the order and left. Although he was still worried in his heart, he was full of confidence in Hailanhak's decision.

Hailanhak looked into the distance with a deep gaze.

He knew that this incident was both a disaster and an opportunity for his Hailan tribe.

If used properly, it might be possible to turn danger into opportunity and further consolidate the position of the Hailan tribe among the northern barbarians. He secretly thought about how to gain the upper hand in this complex game.

"Chagan Wuli, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust." Hailanhak swore secretly in his heart, with a determined light flashing in his eyes. He knew that only by taking the initiative could he be invincible in this storm.

At this moment, a voice came from outside, "General, General Huyan wants to see you!"

Hu Yanhuan?
Hailanhak raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help but become alert. Hu Yanhuan came to visit at this time, is he an enemy or a friend?
He wondered to himself, could it be that Hu Yanhuan had noticed something?
In any case, Hu Yanhuan's coming here at this time was definitely not just for reminiscing about the past.

This thought suddenly made him break out in a cold sweat, with sweat pouring down his forehead.

But he still took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. No matter what, Hu Yanhuan was still counting on his Hailan tribe to fight against the rebels and would definitely not attack him at this time.

He comforted himself in this way in his heart, and his uneasy mood finally calmed down a little.

"Let him in!"

Hailanhak coughed lightly, keeping a straight face and trying not to let Hu Yanhuan notice anything unusual. He knew that he had to be careful in order to be invincible in this game.

Soon, Hu Yanhuan strode into the tent, with an upright posture and a calm expression. He bowed to Hailanhak and said tentatively, "General Hailan, how are you?"

"General Huyan, what a rare guest." Hailanhak smiled slightly, his tone calm, but he secretly guessed the purpose of Huyanhuan's visit.

"General Huyan, why is he not busy planning and deploying troops at this time, but coming to my tent?"

"I came here this time to discuss the big plan with the general."

Hu Yanhuan looked at Hailanhak in front of him, with a barely detectable chill in his eyes, and said straight to the point: "In addition, I have another piece of news for General Hailan."

"There's no need to discuss the big plan together!"

Hailanhak's heart tightened, but he remained calm on the surface, pretending to be relaxed and said, "What is this good news? We, the Northern Barbarians, have never heard of good news since we came south."

Having said this, he paused for a moment, pretending to be deeply distressed, and continued, "I was too anxious earlier, so I offended the general. Please forgive me."

"Crash?"

Hu Yanhuan sneered in his heart. He did not believe this statement. He had already seen through Hailanhak's evil ambitions at that time.

Even so, this was not the time to break the window paper. He came here to test Hailanhak's attitude and to stabilize Hailanhak.

The purpose of his coming this time was, firstly, to test Hailanhak's attitude, and secondly, to stabilize Hailanhak.

"General Hailan, you and I are both well-known figures among the Northern Barbarians. Why should we be suspicious of each other at this time?
I understand your anxiety. After all, it would be difficult for anyone to remain calm in that situation."

Hu Yanhuan softened his tone, trying to close the distance between them, "I came here in the hope that we can join hands to fight against our common enemy in the upcoming battle."

"As it should be!"

Hailanhak nodded repeatedly, showing an extremely helpful look, but he was secretly thinking about how to deal with the current situation.

He smiled slightly and said, "I will definitely obey the general this time and will never disobey. As for the good news that the general mentioned earlier, what about it?"

Hu Yanhuan didn't know that Hailanhak had already known his every move, so he pretended to be mysterious and said, "This matter is only known to you and me in the entire Northern Barbarians. That is, the big man is still alive, and now he is coming with a large army to join us in attacking Lin Zhongyun's rebel army."

"Really?"

Even though Hailanhak already knew about it, he still pretended to be extremely shocked. He sneered in his heart, but his face showed a surprised expression, as if he was extremely shocked by the news.

"It's absolutely true." Hu Yanhuan nodded, with a hint of pride in his expression. He thought that this news was enough to shock Hailanhak and make him dare not act rashly.

Hailanhak thought to himself that if the Khan really led the army in person as Huyanhuan said, the situation would become even more complicated.

"If that's the case, then this is a great opportunity for us Northern Barbarians."

Hailanhak pretended to be excited and said, "If we can eliminate Lin Zhongyun this time, the rebel army will collapse without a fight."

"good."

Hu Yanhuan smiled slightly, very satisfied with Hailanhak's reaction, and continued: "This is an opportunity for the Northern Barbarians, and it is also an opportunity for General Hailan."

"I know that General Hailan has always longed for the title of the Northern Barbarians' No. 1 Warrior. Isn't this the chance?" Hu Yanhuan's eyes flashed with a shrewd light, as if testing Hailanhak's reaction.

Hearing this, Hailanhak also understood that Hu Yanhuan wanted to stabilize himself temporarily, and it would not be wise to start a conflict with Hu Yanhuan at this time.

Therefore, he continued along with Hu Yanhuan's words and said, "Please rest assured, I, Hu Yanhuan, know what is important and what is not. This time, my Hailan tribe will take the lead."

"Okay!" Hu Yanhuan showed a satisfied smile on his face, "In that case, to avoid any more trouble, we should set out immediately." (End of this chapter)
