Chapter 189 Recruitment
At this time, Xiangzhuang took a great risk by opening Gaoque.
If the previous fight outside Gaoque Pass was just a bitter scene, then opening Gaoque Pass at this time would have been a painful plan to be Maodun's bitter flesh plan. However, Xiang Zhuang believed that the possibility was very small. The Tianlang God was the supreme god of the Huns. How could Maodun allow Huyan Zhengde to share this divine character with him?
One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, this is what it means.
However, to be on the verge of caution, Xiangzhuang still took precautions.
The three thousand Iron Cavalry who were Mengying had already set up a formation inside the closing door, and the ten thousand jin gate at the closing door was ready to go.
Once the situation is found to be wrong, Xiang Zhuang will order people to fall down the 10,000-jin gate, block the city gate in one fell swoop, block Maodun's Hun army outside the pass, and then destroy the Huyan cavalry entering the pass with thunder and thunder.
The opening of the Gaoque gate quickly attracted the attention of Huyan's cavalry.
Without any hesitation, Hu Yan Zhengde flocked into Gaoque Pass with more than 500 Hu Yan warriors.
For Hu Yan Zhengde, it is easy to make this decision, because staying outside the pass will only be a dead end, and there will be at least a glimmer of hope when entering the pass. The people of Zhongyuan may not have any kindness to open the door at this time, but at least they will not kill them immediately. Otherwise, why should they do this extra time? Wouldn't it be better to hide in the pass and watch the fun?
In less than a cup of tea, more than 500 cavalrymen of Huyan's army rushed into Gaoque Pass like a tide.
But soon, Huyan's cavalry stopped one after another, because in the open space ahead, a large group of black Central Plains cavalry were already tense and blocked the way. Almost at the same time, the 10,000-jin gate at Gaoque Pass also fell down, blocking the retreat of Huyan's cavalry and blocking the Hunan army outside the pass.
Hu Yanren was in a slight commotion for a moment, but he soon calmed down.
Hu Yan Zhengde took off his white wolf helmet and urged him to stand in front of the Iron Cavalry of the Central Plains. He first hugged his chest and nodded according to the customs of the Huns on the horse, and then said loudly in a standard Guanzhong accent: "Where is Hu Yan Zhengde, how dare you ask, which general is helping us Hu Yan's troops?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the cavalry formation in front suddenly separated from it.
Then more than a dozen Central Plains generals wearing iron armor and riding a horse slowly walked out of the cavalry formation. They were the first to ride in black iron armor and a long black sword on their waist. They were extraordinary. The black mount under their crotch was even more extraordinary. The shoulder height was even half a piece better than his white horse.
This person is naturally Xiang Zhuang.
Xiang Zhuang bowed and replied, "Da Chu, Xiang Zhuang."
"So it's General Xiang." Hu Yan Zhengde changed to the etiquette of the Central Plains and bowed with his fists, "Thank you for your help."
"General Huyan, you are polite." Xiang Zhuang waved his hand and said, "Maodun's army went south. Hetao is no longer a place to stay for a long time. I wonder what the general and your troops have plans?"
Hu Yan Zhengde replied: "I will take my tribesmen across Hetao and continue to migrate southward. The world is so vast, I believe that we can always find a place for our Hu Yan tribe to reproduce."
Xiang Zhuang smiled and said, "Xiang has a suggestion. I wonder if the general wants to hear it?"
Hu Yan Zhengde calmed his hands and said, "Please tell me, General Xiang."
Xiang Zhuang said: "Our Great Chu has many mountains, forests and grasslands in Jiangdong. If the general does not dislike it, why would he take his tribe members to Jiangdong with Xiang?"
Hu Yan Zhengde's eyes were fixed and he said, "General wants to recruit us Hu Yan people?"
"It can also be said." Xiang Zhuang said openly, "I don't know what the general wants?"
"The general has saved our Huyan tribe. We shouldn't refuse good intentions, but..." Huyan Zhengde said this, and suddenly his eyes shone brightly and said in a deep voice, "But our Huyan people have a rule that as long as the general can beat the lower, they will be at the lower level and the 500 cavalry of the Huyan tribe. From then on, only the general's order will be followed!"
Gao Chu and Meng Shuo behind Xiang Zhuang were killed, and the generals of Youyuan suddenly changed their expression slightly when they heard this. How powerful Hu Yan Zhengde was? They all saw clearly when they were closed just now. Although it was because of the gods that he could kill the opponent's generals from the protection of hundreds of cavalry!
Gao Chu still had confidence in Xiang Zhuang. As for Meng Fu, Yuyuan, Bailixian and others, they didn’t know how powerful Xiang Zhuang was, so they naturally didn’t like Xiang Zhuang to win.
Meng Wuqiu stood up and said in a deep voice: "I am here to ask for advice."
Meng Feng has entered the role. Since the day Xiang Zhuang and Ying Zhen got married, he has completed the role transformation, from the guardian of the Ying clan of the Great Qin Dynasty to the guardian of the Xiang clan of the Great Chu Dynasty!
"Meng Feng?!" Hu Yan Zhengde said, "Who is Meng Tian you?"
Meng Feng bowed far to the south and said solemnly: "It's my father!"
"So it's a descendant of General Meng Tian." Hu Yan Zhengde nodded, then slowly raised the dark sword in his hand, pointed at Meng Shiqiu with the sword tip, and said in a deep voice, "Since you are a descendant of General Meng Tian, you do have this qualification, then let the horse come over. As long as you can win the sword in your hand, my Hu Yan tribe will still follow General Xiang's order!"
Meng Feng smiled coldly and was about to urge him to move forward, but Xiang Zhuang blocked his way.
Seeing Xiang Zhuang blocking his way, Meng Shuo was stunned and said, "General, you are..."
Xiang Zhuang waved his hand and said calmly: "General Huyan is challenging this general, how can you do it?" This matter cannot be done by Meng Feng. Otherwise, not only Huyan Zhengde will despise him Xiang Zhuang, but he is afraid that all the old Qin clans and the Qin soldiers in Jiuyuan will look down on him Xiang Zhuang, which will greatly damage Xiang Zhuang's prestige.
Meng Feng's face changed drastically when he heard this. The generals of Youyuan were extremely anxious. Only Gao Chu had calmed down. There were so many Chu generals present, only Gao Chu had witnessed the style of Xiang Zhuangzhen killing the Han general Fan Kuai outside Shouchun City. In Gao Chu's opinion, although Hu Yan Zhengde was powerful, he might not be able to be stronger than Fan Kuai!
Bailixian's face also changed slightly, but he quickly calmed down.
Baili Xian had already vaguely guessed Xiang Zhuang’s intention. Obviously, Xiang Zhuang wanted to establish prestige in the minds of the Qin army soldiers and the old Qin clan through this single-handed challenge with Hu Yan Zhengde! Because the Qin army soldiers and the old Qin clan had never seen Xiang Zhuang take action since they surrendered to the Great Chu, unlike Gao Chu veterans who had witnessed Xiang Zhuang’s divine power with their own eyes!
Xiang Zhuang did have the intention of establishing his authority through this single-handed challenge, because he found that most of the dozens of old Qin clans who surrendered to Da Chu were the leader of the Baili clan, while the more than 3,000 Qin cavalry in Jiuyuan were simply the private soldiers of the Meng family. They only obeyed Meng's military orders and ignored who Xiang Zhuang was.
After all, Xiang Zhuang still lacks prestige in the hearts of the old Qin clan and the Qin army soldiers.
Today is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity to establish prestige. As long as you defeat Huyan Zhengde in a one-on-one challenge, Xiang Zhuang's invincible powerful image will be deeply embedded in the hearts of every old Qin clan and Qin army soldiers. From then on, they will feel awe of Xiang Zhuang from the bottom of their hearts. The army has always relied on strength to speak.
Moreover, once you win the one-on-one challenge, you can get a tiger general and an elite cavalry!
Of course, everything has its advantages and disadvantages. If Xiang Zhuang was defeated by Hu Yan Zhengde in today's single-handed battle, he would not only not be able to establish prestige in the hearts of the old Qin clans, but also the soldiers of the Qin army, but he would probably also seriously weaken his prestige in the hearts of Gaozu-like Chu veterans, and the dream of attracting Hu Yan Zhengde and more than 500 Hu Yan cavalry would also be lost.
However, Xiang Zhuang did not think he would lose to Hu Yan Zhengde!
You should know that Xiang Zhuang had just saved the lives of Hu Yan Zhengde and more than 500 tribes of Hu Yan's tribe. In this way, Hu Yan Zhengde would be scruples when fighting alone, and it would be difficult to devote himself to it with scruples. Since Xiang Zhuang killed Fan Kuai, his martial arts had already broken through the bottleneck and entered a new realm!
Xiangzhuang is no longer the same as before!
Xiang Zhuang had enough confidence that if he and Fan Kuai were allowed to fight another game, they would win even without stirrups.
Xiang Zhuangzi stepped forward, slowly lifted out the horizontal knife, pointed at Yan Zhengde with the sharp tip, and said lightly: "General Hu Yan, please give me advice!"
Hu Yan Zhengde then raised the dark big sword, pointed at Xiang Zhuang from the tip of the sword and shouted: "General Xiang, although you have saved your life to the lower class and the entire Hu Yan tribe, you will never show mercy for this!"
"Stop talking nonsense, let the horse come over." Xiang Zhuang freed his left hand and strode Hu Yan Zhengde and hooked his middle finger.
A strong murderous intent suddenly emerged from Hu Yan Zhengde's wide open tiger's eyes, and then he immediately activated the white horse under his crotch to rush towards Xiangzhuang. Almost at the same time, Xiangzhuang also gently activated the black horse to meet him.

Outside Gaoque Pass, endless Xiongnu cavalry were swarming from several directions. For a moment, no other colors could be seen on the grassland, no other things could be seen, except for the Hun cavalry or the Hun cavalry, except for the gray and gray, as if only the gray and plain Hun cavalry were left in the whole world.
Maodun held a golden scepter and surrounded by hundreds of iron cavalry to the outside of the city.
"What's going on?" Maodun stopped and asked in a deep voice, "Where are the people from the Huyan Tribe?"
A Hun general stepped forward and replied tremblingly: "Report to the Great Shanyu, hundreds of remaining soldiers from the Huyan tribe have just fled into Gaoque Pass."
"Have you entered Gaoque Pass?" Maodun frowned and turned around and shouted, "Go and call Uncle Gong."
A cavalryman from behind Maodun took the order and rushed away. Soon he brought a middle-aged man with a beardless man under his chin again. The middle-aged man was no one else, but was Gongshu, who had been lucky enough to save his life from the northern foot of Yinshan Mountain. At that moment, Gongshu said that Gongshu held his fists and bowed to Maodun, "Uncle Gongshu said to meet the Great Shanyu."
Mao Dun waved his hand, pointed at Gaoqueguan City with the golden scepter in his hand, and asked, "Uncle Gong said, look, are you talking about the Chu people on the wall?"
Uncle Gong replied, "Reporting to the Great Shanyu, it is the Chu people."
