Chapter 352 Hailanhak's worries and internal divisions
At this time, Hailanhake, dressed in disguise, finally returned to the big tent.
He opened the curtain, immediately dismissed everyone, walked straight to the platform, and slowly sat down.
His eyes were deep and the expression on his face was unreadable, like a cold statue, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
However, at this moment, Hailanhak's heart was not as calm as it appeared.
His mind kept recalling the plan Hu Yanhuan had just proposed and the promises Chagan Wuli had made to him.
Now, there are two paths before him.
One option is to reach a complete cooperation with Chagan Uli, recognize the other party's dominant position, and thereby preserve the future of the Hailan tribe.
This path seemed safe, but it meant that he had to give up his pride and persistence, and might even make the Hailan tribe a vassal of Chagan Wuli. This was undoubtedly a humiliation for him.
The other option was to leave Chagan Wuli alone and sit on Diaoyutai to maintain the independence of the Hailan tribe. Although this path was in line with his heart, it was full of risks.
Once Chagan Uli realizes his intentions, the Hailan tribe will face even more severe challenges and may even be completely annexed.
Along the way, Hailanhak kept thinking about this question. His heart was full of contradictions and struggles. Every choice was like a double-edged sword. No matter which choice he made, he might pay a heavy price.
However, what concerned him more was the "traitor" mentioned by Hu Yanhuan.
Hu Yanhuan's words were like a thorn, deeply embedded in his heart, and he could not ignore them.
No matter which path he chooses, if there really is a spy within the Hailan tribe, then this hidden danger will become his biggest threat.
"If the traitor is not eliminated, no matter which path I choose, the ending will not be good..." Hailanhak's eyes sank slightly, and he secretly made up his mind.
He knew that the most urgent task was not to make a choice immediately, but to find the traitor hiding in the dark first.
Only by eliminating this hidden danger can he truly control the situation and decide the future of the Hailan tribe.
Thinking of this, Hailanhak slowly raised his head and swept his eyes across the several guards in the tent like a knife.
There was a deep sense of oppression in his eyes, as if he could see through everyone's thoughts.
Several guards felt their hearts tighten when they were swept by his gaze. They lowered their heads and did not dare to look him in the eye.
Their expressions varied, some were angry, some were anxious, and some were deliberately hiding their emotions.
After a careful look, Hailanhak also withdrew his gaze. The people around him were all veterans who had followed him for more than ten years and would never betray him.
Even if these people wanted to betray, it would be difficult to accomplish due to their positions and prestige.
Just as he was in deep worry, a notification suddenly sounded outside the tent, breaking the silent atmosphere.
"General, the envoy sent by the Khan has been waiting outside the tent for a long time!"
Hearing this sudden news, Hailanhak frowned and his eyes revealed an indescribable confusion.
He slowly raised his head, his eyes sharp and cold, as if he wanted to see through the guard who reported it.
"What? The envoy of Chagan Uli?" he repeated in a low voice, revealing uncontrollable surprise in his voice.
At this moment, his heart was surging and his thoughts were in turmoil.
If his memory was correct, Hu Yanhuan had personally confirmed that the envoys sent this time were ambushed on the way and were completely wiped out.
So, where did this so-called "envoy" come from? Did Hu Yanhuan deliberately conceal something, or was there some other unknown secret?
"Could it be that this is another hidden chess piece played by Chagan Ulib? Or... is someone behind this?" Hailanhak was full of doubts, and various possibilities flashed quickly through his mind.
Although his heart was full of doubts and confusion, Hailanhak's face did not show anything unusual.
He pondered for a moment, then ordered in a cold tone: "Let the messenger come in. I want to see for myself what secrets are hidden in here."
The guard took the order and left, and Hailanhak's eyes became deeper.
He knows very well that this meeting may hide more mysteries, and he must remain calm and alert in order to uncover the truth behind this chess game.
At the same time, in another place, Yuan Jingxin was still waiting anxiously in the tent.
He became more and more anxious, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes kept glancing towards the entrance of the tent, as if he was expecting some important news or the arrival of some important person.
"Why haven't we received any news yet?" Yuan Jingxin whispered to himself, his voice revealing obvious anxiety. "The longer we wait, the greater the risk of being exposed..."
Just when he was feeling anxious, a man dressed in traditional barbarian clothes suddenly opened the curtain of the tent and walked in.
The man was tall and strong, with a stern face, and he exuded a majesty that could not be ignored.
He glanced at Yuan Jingxin and his entourage, then said in fluent barbarian language: "Dear envoys, the envoy sent by the Khan is waiting outside, please follow me."
When Yuan Jingxin heard this, he suddenly felt a surge of joy in his heart. He quickly stood up and saluted the man, with a hint of relief in his tone: "Thank you for coming to meet me personally, General. We have been waiting for a long time and finally we can meet General Hailan!"
After saying that, he and his followers followed the man's steps and walked quickly into the depths of the camp.
As they got closer to the target, Yuan Jingxin's mood gradually relaxed, and even a relaxed smile appeared on his face.
"It seems that this step has finally been taken." He said to himself silently in his heart, with a confident light flashing in his eyes.
However, what Yuan Jingxin didn't know was that the moment they just left the tent, the news had already spread to the ears of the generals in the side tent at an extremely fast speed.
In the side tent, several generals were gathered together, whispering about something, with different expressions on their faces.
Suddenly, a bodyguard ran in hurriedly and reported nervously: "Generals, we just received news that the leader has ordered people to bring the envoy sent by Chagan Uli into the tent." As soon as these words came out, the tent suddenly became noisy.
"What?! The leader summoned us?" A burly general stood up suddenly, his face full of disbelief. "What's going on? How did that old guy know this news?"
"Yeah, what's going on?" Another general frowned, his eyes full of confusion. "Could it be that someone among us leaked the information, or..."
"Whatever the reason, this is not good news for us!" The older general said coldly, with an ominous premonition in his tone. "If the leader really meets with them and chooses to cooperate with Chagan Uli, then wouldn't all our efforts and sacrifices these days be in vain?"
"No, we can't just sit there and wait for death!" The burly general gritted his teeth and slammed his fist on the table. "The leader's attitude is becoming increasingly ambiguous. If we don't take action, I'm afraid we will just be abandoned by Chagan Wuli in the end!"
"But... what can we do?" A young general asked in a low voice, with a hint of hesitation in his tone. "Should we openly oppose the leader? If so, we will be regarded as traitors..."
"Hmph, traitor?" The burly general sneered, his eyes revealing a fierceness.
"If the leader really chooses to compromise, he will be the one who betrays the entire Hailan tribe! Everything we do is for the future of the tribe and for our brothers!"
The atmosphere in the tent became increasingly tense, and the eyes of several generals revealed deep struggles and contradictions.
Their hearts are filled with anger and resentment, but also with confusion and uncertainty about the future.
Just as the generals in the side tent were arguing fiercely, the older general finally lost his patience.
He slammed the table with a deafening bang that instantly drowned out the noise of everyone else's quarrel.
This action made the atmosphere in the entire tent suddenly tense, and the originally noisy environment immediately became silent.
The older general's anger erupted like a volcano. He stood up and glanced at every noisy general in the tent with a sharp gaze.
His voice was like thunder, carrying an irresistible majesty, making everyone present feel an invisible pressure.
"Shut up!" The older general shouted angrily, his voice like thunder, with an unquestionable power. His eyes were cold and stern, sweeping across everyone present, as if he wanted to suppress their emotions by force.
His voice echoed in the tent, making everyone feel an unprecedented tense atmosphere.
There was a sudden silence in the tent. Everyone stopped arguing and lowered their heads in silence.
Even the burly general who had been the most emotional before couldn't help but restrain his anger at this moment. There was a bit of unwillingness in his eyes, but he didn't dare to say anything more.
They knew that the older generals had reached the limit of their patience and it was time to control their emotions.
The older general slowly stood up, placed his hands on the table, and scanned everyone with a gaze like a knife.
His voice was deep and powerful, with a convincing majesty: “Everyone, our Hailan tribe is now at a critical juncture of life and death, and every step is crucial.
What's the point of you guys arguing here endlessly, other than adding to internal friction?"
He paused, his eyes became sharper, and his tone was cold: "No matter what, we cannot ignore the leader's call this time. Since the envoy of Chagan Wuli has arrived, it means that the matter has reached a point where it cannot be avoided. We can no longer delay, nor can we escape."
"Then what should we do?" A young general asked in a low voice, with a hint of uneasiness in his tone. His voice echoed in the tent, making everyone feel an unprecedented tense atmosphere.
The older general's eyes darkened, and he said firmly: "Now, we can only take one step at a time and act accordingly.
Although the leader's attitude is ambiguous, he is the commander of the Hailan tribe after all. We cannot split and cause internal strife at this time. Only by stabilizing the situation first can we find a real way out. "
His voice was sonorous and powerful, with an unquestionable decisiveness.
Upon hearing this, although the generals were still unwilling, they had to admit that this was the only feasible solution at the moment.
They know that now is not the time to act on impulse and that they must unite to overcome the difficulties.
“Hmph, adapt to circumstances…” The burly general snorted coldly, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes, but he finally lowered his head and said in a deep voice: “Okay, I’ll listen to the old general.
However, I have to be frank with you. If the leader really chooses to compromise, I will never stand idly by!"
"We are all unwilling to compromise, but now is not the time to act on impulse." The older general said coldly, with a warning in his eyes, "Remember, no matter what, our goal is to protect the future of the Hailan tribe, not to destroy everything for personal emotions."
When the generals heard this, their faces turned pale and their expressions were complicated. Although they were reluctant in their hearts, they also understood that this was indeed the only choice under the current situation. They had to put aside their personal grudges and unite for the benefit of the tribe.
"In that case, let's go see what the leader is going to do." Another general whispered, with a hint of helplessness in his tone. His voice echoed in the tent, making everyone feel an unprecedented tense atmosphere.
"That's right." The older general nodded, then stood up straight with a look of determination in his eyes. "No matter what happens next, we must remain calm. Only in this way can we find our chance of survival in this treacherous game."
Everyone nodded. Although their faces were still filled with resentment and anger, there was a hint of calmness and restraint in their eyes.
They knew that every next step was crucial, and they had to act cautiously to gain the greatest benefit for the Hailan tribe.
The wind blew in through the gaps in the tent, bringing with it a chill.
Several generals slowly stood up, put on their armor, and walked out of the side tent with heavy steps. Their backs looked particularly heavy in the morning light, as if each of them was carrying a huge pressure on their shoulders.
They know that the road ahead is full of unknowns and challenges, but they must face it bravely.
At this moment, Hailanhak was sitting in the big tent, staring coldly at the "messenger" in front of him.
His eyes were deep and cold, as if he was trying to see through the expressions of Yuan Jingxin and others and see into their hearts. His eyes revealed an unfathomable wisdom that made it impossible to guess his true thoughts.
"The envoy of Chagan Uli..." Hailanhak said in a low voice, with a hint of profound meaning in his tone.
"I hope that your purpose can satisfy me." His voice echoed in the tent, making everyone feel an unprecedented tense atmosphere.
They knew that the next negotiations would determine the fate of the Hailan tribe. (End of this chapter)
