Chapter 856: Fratricide

During this period of time, Li Xiang also learned an iron rule among the major chieftains in the mountains. Throughout the long history, the major chieftains did not always maintain peace, and there were various fights between them. But no matter what level their fights reached, there was a bottom line in their hearts, that is, they must never relax the road leading down the mountain.

In the past, when the various chieftains were fighting fiercely, the troops stationed at the checkpoints would not be reduced. They all knew that the Han people living below the mountain were their greatest threat. If Han people were allowed in due to internal strife, they would be the greatest sinners of their ethnic group. Therefore, no matter who became the chieftain, the defensive troops at the checkpoints would not be reduced. But the situation this time was a little special...

The people at the foot of the mountain had already analyzed that both of Longchuan Tusi's sons might die. If both sons died, it would mean that Longchuan Tusi had no scruples. At this time, whoever dared to stand up and challenge his authority, he would put all his power on this person, even if the Han people at the foot of the mountain came to kill him.

If you put yourself in this situation, you can understand why people spend their entire lives living for their descendants. Now that they have no descendants left, why should they still maintain this rationality? Is it any different if the Han people below the mountain are in charge or the chieftains above the mountain are in charge? It doesn't matter to me anyway.

At this moment, the Longchuan chieftain had red eyes and looked at his second son in front of him. He seemed to be in great pain. The rules left by his ancestors only allowed the eldest son to inherit the position of chieftain, so he had been suppressing his second son, but he did not expect that the youngest son would do such a thing.

Tusi Longchuan really felt a little regretful. If he could do it again, he would never let such a tragedy happen. The wizard next to him had been chopped to death by him. Killing a wizard in the mountain village was an ominous sign, but Tusi Longchuan had no other ideas. Now he just wanted to kill people.

When the wizard told the chieftain that the young master was dead, the chieftain could no longer suppress his anger and killed the greatest wizard in the village with a single blow of his knife.

The people in the tent didn't even have time to persuade the wizard. They could only watch the wizard's head slide down, and then everyone knelt down in fear, afraid that they would be the next person to be killed.

The two young masters died, and General Ronggong's entire family also died. No one in the entire mountain stronghold dared to speak, for fear that the chieftain would remember their faults. At this time, they thought that the chieftain had gone crazy, and whoever did not obey him would suffer the same fate.

Just as the Longchuan Tusi was silent, a huge tremor was heard outside. It should be the vibration of the catapult...

"Report to the chieftain, the chieftain Adu is coming with his entire battalion of officers and soldiers. They attacked us without a word, and they also brought large catapults..."

When hearing this news, if his two sons were not dead and Longchuan Tusi's stronghold was still operating normally, there would be great shock on Longchuan Tusi's face, and even a little fear. After all, Tusi Adu was also very powerful. If the two strong men really punched each other, it would not be of any benefit to the mountain in this situation.

But now the corners of Longchuan Tusi's mouth turned up, and he actually smiled. When the soldier who came in to report saw this scene, his face was filled with fear. Is our Tusi mad? Someone outside is madly attacking our stronghold, why is the Tusi smiling?

"I said someone must be behind this, but I didn't expect it to be this guy. Since he wants me to be extinct, I'm going to tear his head off and show him who's the boss on the mountain. Don't think you're better than us just because you can recite a few poems. Gather all the troops and fight back immediately. Let them see how powerful we are."

Chieftain Longchuan suddenly stood up, his face no longer showing the dejection he had just now, because he didn't know who had started the whole thing just now, so even if he wanted to take revenge, he didn't have a target, especially General Ronggong's last words, which made Chieftain Longchuan dare not kill people casually. If he killed another great noble, he might regret it even more.

Now that Tusi Adu has appeared, Tusi Longchuan can finally vent his anger.

No matter what the reason is, you brought people to attack my stronghold, which at least shows that you are related to this matter, or you are colluding with the Han people down the mountain. No matter what the reason is, since you are here, you don't have to go back.

The army of Tusi Adu fought vigorously, and he brought out more than a dozen catapults. You know, there is very little flat land on the mountain. Even if there is a war, it is not an easy task to find a place to deploy all these catapults.

The huge stone hit the stronghold of Longchuan Tusi, causing them considerable casualties, but these people soon hid. They had been operating this stronghold for so many years, so they naturally had corresponding response plans, and they were in a dominant position, so they only lost their composure for a short time.

When Tusi Longchuan appeared in the command position, the whole village instantly became energetic and spirited. Although Tusi Longchuan had done some not-so-good things, he had been the leader of these people for decades. Now that Tusi Longchuan had lost his decadence, he could naturally lead them to victory.

When Longchuan Tusi was young, he was the most powerful general in the entire stronghold. There were countless crises around him, but what was the final result? All of them were crushed by Longchuan Tusi. The situation before was much more serious than it is now. Now it's just outside the stronghold. Do we fear you?

"Charge!"

Seeing the people in the stronghold being smashed to pieces, Tusi Adu nodded with satisfaction. He certainly would not put all his hopes on the catapults. If that were the case, there would be no way to win, so he had to let people rush up.

The eight thousand cavalrymen under his command charged out instantly. Longchuan Tusi loved to show off, so he had cleared a flat area in front of the stronghold. He had never dreamed that this flat area could become a battlefield for the enemy to charge. If he had known this would happen, he would not have allowed the flat area in front of the stronghold...
