I summoned all the famous generals of history in another world.

Chapter 657 Exchange of Holy Lineage Hostages!

"Of course, in response, the three Murong brothers of the Xianbei tribe must also provide one of them to go to Cangzhou as a hostage. This is a necessary means to protect our interests."

There's no such thing as a free lunch. I've sent so many commanders and generals, along with a heavy cavalry force.

It's a bit unreasonable for your Xianbei people not to express their gratitude, isn't it?

Therefore, in exchange, one of the two Saint-level commanders, Murong Chui and Murong Ke, must be kept under his watchful eye.

In this way, even if the Murong clan of the Xianbei becomes ambitious and emboldened to turn against them in the future, the threat level will be greatly reduced after losing a key member of their force.

"My lord, this plan is brilliant! It not only strengthens the Xianbei tribe, but also cleverly establishes a link between us and the Xianbei tribe, and guarantees our interests by taking hostages. In this way, it will be difficult for those Xianbei tribes to go back on their word later."

Upon hearing this, Gao Jiong pondered for a moment and couldn't help but nod in approval.

"However, the schemes in this plan to exterminate the family line, to cut off the source of the problem, are all aimed at slowly cutting off the flesh with a dull knife, completely severing the clan, wiping out the descendants, and destroying the race. The methods are a bit too ruthless."

"This can't be a scheme devised by Wenruo, who advocates benevolent governance, can it?"

Su Ye smiled gently, her gaze returning to the proposal.

"This plan was actually first proposed by Wenhe, and Chen Qun and Changsun Wuji refined it."

Gao Jiong coughed lightly and said in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Su Ye suddenly realized that it was this old cunning fellow who had first proposed the scheme, which made it no surprise!

"What I want is a balance on the grasslands. The strength of the Xianbei can restrain other tribes, while our support is the key to controlling the Xianbei."

"Only in this way can we ensure that the situation on the grassland remains under our control, and buy more time and space for the development of Cangzhou."

Su Ye chuckled lightly, his tone carrying a hint of boldness.

"My lord's vision is truly admirable, but I'm afraid there will be many obstacles in implementing this plan."

Gao Jiong chuckled lightly, naturally giving his lord a lot of face regarding his ambitions.

"There will always be difficulties, but as long as we proceed step by step, we will always find a solution."

"And don't forget, there's still that old fox Jia Xu in Cangzhou. If all else fails, we can send him north to lend the Xianbei a hand."

"With him around, even the most difficult situations can be resolved. As for the aftermath of that old poisoner's ruthless schemes, well, they're all a bunch of aliens anyway, so let the impact be as big as it may. I don't care!"

Su Ye waved his hand, his expression remaining calm.

At this point, Su Ye sat back down at his desk, picked up his pen, and added his own comments to the secret letter with firm and powerful strokes.

"Send this reply back to Cangzhou immediately, and have Xun Yu and the others act according to the plan."

"At the same time, inform Jin Wuzhu, Yuwen Chengdu, Tie Shiwen and the others to prepare to go to the Xianbei camp."

After finishing writing, he gently blew the ink dry, folded the letter, put it in an envelope, and handed it to Gao Jiong.

"In addition to those few, let the Tiger Fang and Tiger Seal brothers from this martial arts tournament also go."

At this point, Su Ye thought for a moment and sent the two alien giant brothers who had just stood out in the martial arts tournament and joined his ranks as well.

"Yes, my lord."

Gao Jiong took the envelope and cupped his hands in greeting.

As Gao Jiong turned and left the study, Su Ye's gaze returned to the window. This power struggle against the nomadic tribes of the grasslands... (The rest of the text is incomplete and likely refers to a separate topic.)

And Cangzhou will be the dominant force in this game!

...

Several days later, in the governor's mansion of Cangling City, the capital of Cangzhou.

Xun Yu, Chen Qun, Changsun Wuji, and others reunited, this time with a more relaxed and expectant look on their faces.

The reason was none other than the reply from Su Ye, the lord of Hengzhou, who not only agreed to their original plan but also added a new strategy of sending military generals to support the Xianbei tribe.

"My lord, this plan is truly a stroke of genius!"

"Jin Wuzhu, Yuwen Chengdu, and Tie Shiwen are all fierce generals from different tribes on the grasslands. With their help, the strength of the Xianbei tribe will surely increase greatly, and other grassland tribes will also feel the pressure, making the situation even more unpredictable."

Chen Qun was the first to exclaim in praise.

"Not only that, but demanding that the Xianbei tribe send hostages to Cangzhou was an even more ingenious move."

"It not only demonstrates our sincerity, but also gives us leverage to restrain the Xianbei people, achieving two goals at once."

Changsun Wuji nodded, his eyes gleaming with admiration.

Xun Yu listened to the discussion and agreed with it in his heart.

"My lord's plan is indeed ingenious, but we cannot be careless. After all, the nomadic tribes of the grasslands are cunning and unpredictable. If we are not careful, all our previous efforts may be in vain."

He gently stroked the secret letter in his hand, as if he could feel Su Ye's foresight.

"Gentlemen, now that our lord has agreed to our plan and added such a brilliant touch, what are we still hesitating about?"

"In my opinion, we should take immediate action and show the Xianbei people the determination and strength of Cangzhou."

Just then, Jia Xu spoke slowly, his voice carrying a hint of mockery.

Upon hearing this, everyone agreed.

"Alright! Since everyone agrees, let's proceed according to plan."

"I will be responsible for allocating resources to ensure that supplies supporting the Xianbei arrive on time; Assistant (Changsun Wuji), you will be responsible for intelligence work and keep abreast of the latest developments on the grasslands; Changwen (Chen Qun), you will be responsible for specific strategy formulation to ensure that we stay ahead of the Xianbei in every step."

Seeing this, Xun Yu smiled slightly and stood up.

"As for Wen and you..."

Xun Yu paused, glanced at Jia Xu who was quietly sipping tea, and clearly hesitated for a moment.

"Wenhe personally went to Taiping Pass to discuss the specifics with Mu Qinglin and Bai Yifei to ensure the plan would go perfectly."

At Xun Yu's command, everyone stood up, cupped their hands in greeting, and said, "Yes, sir!"

In an instant, Cangling City became busy again, with various forces making intensive preparations for the upcoming operation.

Meanwhile, Tie Shiwen, who was in Hengzhou, was wearing an animal skin and inspecting a cavalry camp under Su Ye's command, checking the equipment and provisions.

Suddenly, a fast horse rushed into the camp like a whirlwind, its rapid and powerful hooves breaking the camp's tranquility.

"Report! General, there's an urgent military order!"

The messenger's voice was slightly breathless as he presented a sealed letter with both hands.

Tie Shiwen took the letter, his brows furrowed slightly, and he pondered to himself.

He opened the envelope, quickly scanned the contents of the letter, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Proceed immediately to Taiping Pass in Cangzhou to support the Xianbei tribe?"
