A time-travelling peasant girl becomes a wealthy woman

Chapter 140 Yu Zhenzhou's Plan

Yu Zhenzhou went to the capital after his last victory and has not returned to the frontier for seven years. How come he is here suddenly?

Moreover, why haven’t they received any news that Yu Zhenzhou has come to the border?

Why did the spies only discover the border killing of merchants at this time?

All these things made Surileheke feel a little uneasy.

I think the problem lies in why traveling merchants were intercepted and killed.

The information previously reported by the spies, saying that Bars had raised elite soldiers and killed caravans in the name of Surilehek, was probably true.

It is not uncommon for major tribes to have elite soldiers. The question is, why do such things in his name?

Surile and Keneng are not fools as they can become the rulers.

He smelled a conspiracy.

As a wise man, Battelle naturally thought of the twists and turns involved.

He guessed that Surileheke's previous request for them to offer more tribute had made Bals bear a grudge and become disloyal.

"Lord, if the information obtained by the spies is true..." Bartel said, "I'm afraid Bars has already had such an idea."

Surileheke's face became even gloomier.

Bater stopped talking, he knew Surileheke's temper, he was tyrannical, selfish and intolerant, Bals's behavior would only bring him fatal disaster.

"What do you think?"

Surileheke asked Bater.

"My Lord, we have no evidence now. Even if we bring Bars here for questioning, he won't admit it."

Bater thought for a moment and said, "The Bars tribe is quite strong, and there are many small and medium-sized tribes attached to it. If he really has that idea, the king and his alliance are not afraid of him, but..."

"There is another Yu Zhenzhou who is eyeing the border covetously."

Sulerhek nodded and said, "But we can't let Bars go."

"There is a saying in Tianxiang: When the crane and the clam fight, the fisherman gains."

"Why not, let's take advantage of the situation."

"Oh?"

"Your Majesty, you don't know about this. Let Bars continue to attack the people of Tianxiang Country, and then secretly pass the news to Yu Zhenzhou. Let them fight each other. Maybe we will be the ones who profit from it."

Su Rileheke's brows relaxed after hearing this: "That's a good idea."

"Go and make arrangements."

"Yes."

Here, Yu Zhenzhou soon learned about Surileheke and Bater's ideas and practices, which were exactly what he wanted. He wanted the tribes of the Matan Kingdom to scheme against each other so that he could make his plans.

After another half month, Bals did not take any action. Surileheke and Bater secretly sent out a number of spies to gather information, and soon received the news that Yu Zhenzhou had returned to Beijing.

Bals, Surile and Ke were all a little anxious. If Yu Zhenzhou left, the play would not be able to continue.

Bals thought for a long time and decided to send elite troops to intercept the caravan again before Yu Zhenzhou went far.

Recently, the arrival of Yu Zhenzhou has greatly boosted the morale of the military camp. A group of horse bandits was recently arrested. There have been no accidents on the border for a long time, and some merchant caravans have begun to muster up the courage to trade again.

What others didn't know was that Yu Zhenzhou had already hidden several camps of people on the border of Matan State. The place was secretive enough and not easily discovered.

Yu Zhenzhou ordered Yu Min to call Tang Jide over and said earnestly: "I can only ask you to continue to help with this matter."

Yu Zhenzhou felt a little sorry for Tang Jide for letting him participate in such a dangerous thing, but he would secretly protect the personal safety of Tang Jide and his caravan.

"Just tell me what to do. I trust you." Tang Jide had no objection: "Just tell me what to do."

Lure the snake out of its hole.

Yu Zhenzhou waited for Bals' elite troops to arrive.

Except for Tang Jide and several trusted guards of the Tang family, the other people in the caravan didn't have time to react. Yu Zhenzhou and his soldiers used martial arts props to strangle everyone to death, aiming for a quick victory.

Then he used the old method, replacing most of the people in the caravan with his soldiers, protecting them all the way into the tribal territory of Matan and collecting intelligence at the same time.

When Surileheke received the news that Bars had sent troops, he immediately sent his elite troops to the border, intending to intercept and kill Bars' elite troops, and then disguise himself to kill the Tianxiang Kingdom's caravan.

But he didn't expect that these elite troops encountered an ambush and were almost wiped out.

Yu Zhenzhou not only kept his eyes on Bals, but also on Surile and Ke. He killed two waves of Matan soldiers and even deliberately let dozens of them escape.

Dozens of soldiers who escaped returned to report. Surileheke was furious after hearing this, because he had spent a lot of effort and money to train this elite force.

"Are they soldiers from Tianxiang Kingdom?"

"They are wearing Tianxiang country's clothes, but..." One of them answered: "They don't look like them."

"The strangulation action is very similar to the sword-killing method of our own people. I also saw a squad leader use the command gesture of our country, so I doubt he is from Tianxiang Country."

When Su Rileheke heard this, something in his heart exploded.

But he had not completely lost his mind. He sent spies to investigate the Tianxiang caravan. The reply he received was: the Tianxiang caravan had entered the territory of Chief Tuktan and conducted barter trade with the local residents.

Surileheke's guess was confirmed. Bars sent out elite soldiers to trick his elite troops into attacking and ambush them!

He didn't know when Bals discovered his actions behind his back, but Bals's behavior was tantamount to trampling on his face.

Surileheke was extremely angry about this and immediately asked Bater to contact several tribal leaders in the alliance. He was determined to send troops to attack Bars' tribe.

The leaders of several tribes summoned by Surileheke heard his words and none of them said a word.

Because they also got wind of it.

Originally, they all wanted to watch the excitement of the fight between Bals and Surileheke, but they didn't expect that they would be dragged into it so soon.

"Lord, do you think the time is right?"

One of the leaders, named Tuktan, asked.

"It's perfect." Su Ri Le He Ke said viciously, "Bars may be secretly happy right now. He never thought that we would suddenly send troops and catch him off guard."

"If we wait a little longer until he has made all the arrangements, we will have lost the opportunity."

Sulerheke winked at Bater, who stepped forward respectfully and said, "The leader of the Bars may be dissatisfied with the distribution of the tribute."

At the beginning, Bals was indeed the one who opposed it most strongly.

Except for Surileheke, the other leaders present had benefited and retained most of their strength, so it was not difficult to understand Bals's approach.

If it were them, they would probably do the same.

But now, Bars can only be an enemy.

"I heard that Tianxiang's god of war Yu Zhenzhou is at the border." Tuktan hesitated and said, "Is it appropriate for us to start a civil war at this time?"
