Although Sunila was curious as to why her husband came back, she did not ask the reason.

Zhang Zhen and Lu Yanxun came to the study and asked their cronies to be on guard outside. They closed the door and plotted in the study.

"Brother, according to Master Gongsun's wishes, it is best for us to obtain part of the military power and lead this war. But Hauge did not give you military power for whatever reason. And this is the situation within these tribes. I'm afraid it will continue like this.

.We will not have any impact on the war in Huanglong Mansion."

"Our soldiers will suffer heavy casualties. It may even lead to Huanglong's defeat."

"We have to make changes."

Lu Yanxun said in a deep voice.

"Of course I know what you are saying. But if Hauge doesn't give me military power, I have no choice. How can I still seize power? Seizing power is reliable. Although we only have a hundred households, we caught the powerful people of the Sushun tribe alive by surprise.

We are almost holding it in hand. But how do we control people's hearts? And if we create such a thing in Sushun, other tribes will definitely be chilled. The coalition forces will disperse in a hurry."

Although it was freezing cold now, Zhang Zhen felt hot. He reached out and grabbed his collar, stood up and paced back and forth, looking anxious.

"Of course you can't conspire to seize power. Conspiracies will only bring panic. What's more, you are Hauge's son-in-law no matter what. If you seize power, everything will be lost."

"But brother, you can use conspiracy to accumulate reputation."

Lu Yanxun narrowed his eyes, and a trace of light flickered in them.

"What do you mean? I can use my uncle's reputation to mediate the conflicts between the various ethnic groups, increase my own prestige, and slowly gain leadership of the alliance?"

Zhang Zhen immediately woke up and said with bright eyes.

"That's right. The mediator does not pose any threat. On the contrary, no one can do without the mediator. Being able to maintain the alliance will show your brother's ability."

"In the current situation of a powerful enemy, the people of the alliance will naturally unite around the elder brother. The elder brother's status will become transcendent, which will then affect the actions of the alliance."

A smile appeared in Lu Yanxun's eyes, and he nodded lightly. Then he suggested: "I also suggest that brother, ask for logistics work."

"The current supply of food and grass within the alliance is in great chaos, and all ministries are dissatisfied. If my brother can integrate logistics and take charge of money and food, he will be even more powerful."

"Before the troops and horses are moved, food and grass go first. I'm afraid the barbarians don't quite understand this truth."

At the end of the sentence, Lu Yanxun's tone was quite contemptuous.

Of all the species in this world, Yan Han is the smartest and the best at war.

We are a war nation.

"Okay. I'm going to ask Hauge right now." Zhang Zhen pinched his chin, and after thinking for a long time, he raised his head and looked at Lu Yanxun with admiration.

This brother, who has grown up together since childhood, is very clever.

Immediately, Zhang Zhen took Lu Yanxun out of the mansion and arrived at Sushun Hou Mansion, where they met Hauge and Jin Tie in the hall.

The two seemed to be discussing something.

"Zhen'er, why did you come to see me?" Hauge asked kindly.

"Reporting to my father-in-law." Zhang Zhen saluted respectfully, and then said: "Now the ministries are gathering in Sushun, which has caused quite a problem. I request to come forward to mediate the conflicts between the ministries and deal with the food and grass issue."

Hauge didn't think much, his eyes lit up and he said: "I am also very embarrassed about this matter. It's great that you can help me share my worries."

"However, I have to gather the tribal leaders to discuss it. You can go down first."

"Yes." Zhang Zhen was secretly happy when he saw this, he responded respectfully, and went down with Lu Yanxun.

Jin Tie, who was silent by the side, waited for Zhang Zhen to leave, and reminded Hauge: "Master Hou, being able to handle internal affairs well will bring huge reputation."

Hauge's eyes flashed and he asked: "You mean, he wants to seize the leadership of the alliance?"

"Not necessarily. But he does want to increase his influence." Jin Tie shook his head and said.

"Without the prestige of military power, it is just empty prestige. His military strength is only his hundreds of Han soldiers. He cannot stir up trouble. Don't worry about him."

After thinking for a while, Hauge said disapprovingly.

"But, I was right not to lead troops for him. I want to seize the leadership of the alliance and dominate the world." Hauge felt complacent again.

Military power is the most important thing.

Do not let Zhang Zhen use it easily.

afternoon.

Haug immediately gathered the tribal leaders and explained these two things. The conflicts between tribes also gave the leaders of each tribe a headache.

The supply of grain and grass is even more difficult to coordinate.

Now someone stood up, and he was the nephew of the King of Han. The tribal leaders had no objections. Zhang Zhen quickly acted as a mediator and allocated food and grass.

In fact, this job is what the prime minister does.

That's what Liu Zhixing is good at.

Reconciling yin and yang allows the country's power to be concentrated together to accomplish great things.

Neither Zhang Zhen nor Lu Yanxun had such ability. But they pretended to be powerful, and the combined population and strength of these tribes in the east were equivalent to the entire territory of Liaodong.

Small scale.

Both Zhang Zhen and Lu Yanxun had learned the art of war since they were young, and knew how to lead troops and coordinate food and grass. Lu Yanxun was very smart and made plans from the sidelines.

The two brothers worked together smoothly.

Conflicts in all aspects were reconciled, and the supply of food and grass was smooth. Everyone felt relaxed.

The Sushun people who were harassed by soldiers from various tribes also felt very happy. For a time, Zhang Zhen's prestige also increased.

Of course, a mascot is still a mascot. But if a mascot is given a chance, it can leap over the dragon's gate, soar through the nine heavens, and shock the world.

Just then.

News came from the front. Tian Yuan, the general of Wanhu in the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, led Wanhu soldiers to attack Sushun.

The alliance is shaken.

The leaders of various ministries held a military meeting in the hall of Sushun Houfu.

In addition to the leader, there are also Hauge's confidant Jin Tie, son-in-law Zhang Zhen, and eldest son Dorbo.

Hauge sat on the main seat as a matter of course. The first person on his right hand was Red Ghost Hou Qimin, and then the seats were arranged according to the size of the tribe.

Zhang Zhen, Jin Tie, Dolbo and others sat at the end.

"Now the enemy is facing us. Some things must be decided." Hauge looked at everyone present, and then said with an excited expression: "There is a saying among the Han people."

"A snake cannot survive without a head."

"We should elect a leader to order the entire alliance to fight against the Mongols. Only in this way can we unite our strength to win this war."

Qimin glanced at Hauge with contempt in his eyes.

With this attitude, this guy sees the position of the leader of the alliance as something in his pocket.

Is he worthy?

But Qimin didn't sneer, it was too cheap.

Facts speak louder than words.

Hauge has no such prestige.
