Chapter 701: Allied Forces
Xuanyuan knew that the Jiuli tribe was a tough nut to crack, and the local people were extremely tough. If he couldn't defeat the Jiuli tribe, there was no way he would be able to incorporate them!
After thinking for a while, Xuanyuan decided to lead the army himself and prepare to defeat the Jiuli tribe. But who would have thought that Xuanyuan would encounter the second Waterloo of his life against the Jiuli tribe!
Originally Xuanyuan thought that the army he sent out was defeated by the Jiuli tribe because of Chiyou's proper command and the bravery and fighting skills of the Jiuli people. In addition, the army he sent out was not adequately prepared!
But when Xuanyuan encountered the unique iron-eating beast army of the Jiuli tribe, he finally understood why his army was defeated! He understood that in front of the iron-eating beast army, his proud army was simply vulnerable!
Xuanyuan suffered a great loss in the Jiuli tribe again. In order to rebuild the morale of the Xuanyuan army, he decided to rebuild the morale of other rebellious tribes first!
Originally, those tribal leaders thought that Xuanyuan would stay quiet for a while after being defeated by the Jiuli tribe and give them some breathing time, but who would have thought that Xuanyuan would actually treat them as soft persimmons!
However, after so many years of development, they were no match for Xuanyuan, especially in an era when transportation and information were underdeveloped. By the time the tribal leaders knew that Xuanyuan was attacking them, Xuanyuan had already conquered three tribes!
The tribal leaders knew that Xuanyuan would not let them go. In order to protect themselves, they decided to form a coalition, ready to completely defeat Xuanyuan in one fell swoop, leaving him with no strength to resist!
When facing the Jiuli tribe's iron-eating beast army, the Xuanyuan army had no chance of winning. However, when facing the coalition formed by a group of tribal leaders, the Xuanyuan army was invincible. After all, even if those tribal leaders cooperated, they had their own ulterior motives and did not want their armies to suffer too much damage. What's more, none of these tribal leaders could command the overall situation, so the command of the army was extremely poor!
After experiencing a disastrous defeat, the tribal leaders realized that they, the small characters, could not defeat the Xuanyuan army alone. In order to prevent themselves from losing control of the tribe, they finally chose to go to the Jiuli tribe, ready to cooperate with Chiyou to fight against Xuanyuan!
Chi You looked down upon those guys who destroyed the unity of the tribe, but in order to fight for the throne of the emperor, Chi You finally reached a cooperation with these tribal leaders. However, in order to ensure that his authority would not be shaken, Chi You gave them some loving education before cooperating with these tribal leaders and asked them to temporarily hand over the control of the tribe!
In order to ensure that these tribal leaders would not stab him in the back and refuse to comply with his orders, Chi You specially signed a humanitarian contract with them to restrain them.
Although these tribal leaders were very dissatisfied with Chi You's temporary control of their tribes, they also understood that they were now facing a powerful enemy. If they did not hand over the temporary control of the tribes, they would only be captured by the Xuanyuan army!
But the only thing that made them feel happy was that Chiyou signed a contract with them, that after defeating Xuanyuan in the future, Chiyou would return their tribe!
Unfortunately, what they didn’t know was that Chi You had tampered with the contract from the very beginning. If they wanted to take back the tribe from Chi You in the future, it would be as difficult as for a mortal to climb to the top of Mount Zhou!
As Chi You signed a contract with a group of tribal leaders, the coalition they formed underwent a drastic change, and they were able to fight back even when facing Xuanyuan's army!
Especially after the Jiuli tribe's army joined, the Xuanyuan army has not won a single battle, and Xuanyuan became somewhat autistic due to the attacks from the coalition forces!
Not long after Xuanyuan shut himself in, he received assistance from the Heavenly Court - a military book sent by the Lady of the Nine Heavens! After Xuanyuan had mastered the contents of the military book, he began to train his army with the help of the contents recorded in the military book, and used the coalition forces other than the Jiuli tribe to hone his own army!
