Chapter 217: The Decline of the Wolf Lord
The next morning, everyone followed Jiang Chen's instructions and divided the nearly 40,000 troops brought from the imperial capital into three parts.
The Tiger and Leopard Camp, led by Han Zhong, had 5,000 men and was stationed in the east to guard Lingbei County to prevent an invasion by the King of Jin's army.
Li Yuanyi and Yuan Hao took 5,000 guards originally trained for Jiang Chen and garrisoned in Qingquan County in the south.
As for Jiang Chen himself, he kept 5,000 Silver Armored Soldiers by his side, and arranged Du Mingyu and the remaining 30,000 Tiger and Leopard Battalions at the intersection of the three counties so that they could rush to provide assistance at any time.
After completing the deployment of the troops, Jiang Chen ordered Zhang Fei to reorganize the Jinyiwei hidden in various places and establish a new organization - "Ant Hole".
With the original Jinyiwei intelligence personnel foundation and structure, the newly established "Ant Nest" soon set up branches throughout the Xia State.
Even the Jinyiwei who were sent to help Guan Zhihe, after receiving Jiang Chen's secret order, stopped their identities as Jinyiwei.
Under Guan Zhihe's arrangement, he changed his identity and established the first intelligence base of "Ant Hole" in Canglang Country.
More than half a month passed quickly, and under Jiang Chen's governance, Jibei County and other three counties had gradually gotten back on track.
At the same time, Jiang Chen's army, which originally had only 45,000 people, finally formed the ability to fight against the King of Jin who had an army of 100,000 after recruiting 20,000 young and strong men.
However, if these 20,000 newly recruited young and strong men want to be truly combat-ready, they still need to undergo some training and the baptism of war!
In addition, under Jiang Chen's arrangement, the newly established "ant nest" also took advantage of the opportunity to penetrate into the northern countries of Qi and Ming.
Of course, these intelligence personnel infiltrated into these two countries under the guise of Chamber of Commerce trade and opening branches of Lao Ba's secret restaurant.
With the cover of the Chamber of Commerce and restaurants, the "Ant Hole" was able to infiltrate Qi and Ming very smoothly.
At the same time, in the capital of Canglang Kingdom, Ahamu was standing trembling in front of a burly, white-haired old man.
And this old man is none other than the Great Khan of the entire Canglang Kingdom, the "Wolf Lord" - Tuomu Khan!
"Father Khan, I really don't know about this matter!"
Seeing that Takumu Khan didn't speak for a long time, Aham struggled in his heart for a while, gritted his teeth, walked up to Takumu Khan and said.
Hearing Aham's voice, Takumu Khan opened his eyes slightly and looked his son up and down with squinted eyes.
After feeling the gaze of his father Khan, Aham held his breath instantly and cold sweat began to appear on his back.
After looking at Ahamu, Takumu Khan closed his eyes again and spoke slowly.
"Aham, my son, you really disappointed the Khan this time."
"It's fine if Cangtong is just making trouble, but as her brother, you actually join her in making trouble!"
After Takumu Khan finished scolding, Ahamu knelt on the ground in shame.
"Father Khan, please calm down. I really didn't know that my younger sister would send 50,000 cavalry!"
At this time, Aham was so frightened by Takumu Khan's majesty that he could not raise his head. He knelt on the ground trembling.
Hearing Aham's plea for mercy, Takumu Khan no longer had any patience.
"Ahamu, you are no longer fit to stay by the Khan's side..."
"Starting tomorrow, you will go to Hanermo's place. When you have thought it through, come back!"
Takumu Khan's words completely dispelled all of Aham's thoughts.
Although Hanermo is the younger brother of Takumu Khan, he was sealed in the poorest eastern part of Canglang Kingdom, with only endless desert to accompany him all day long.
Tuomu Khan sent Ahamu there, which undoubtedly denied Ahamu's qualification to inherit the Khanship of Canglang Kingdom...
When Aham heard the punishment his father gave him, he panicked instantly and knelt on the ground crying heartbreakingly.
"Father Khan, Father Khan, you can't send Aham to the desert!"
"Once Ahamu is gone, who will be able to stay by your side and take care of you?"
Ahamu cried and screamed, and crawled desperately to Takumu Khan 's feet, and hugged Takumu Khan's feet tightly.
Faced with Aham's pleading, Takumu Khan did not soften his decision.
The elderly Takumu Khan kicked his son away.
He slowly stood up and walked out with unsteady steps , leaving Aham alone kneeling there crying.
The distraught Aham staggered back to his mansion.
As soon as he returned to the mansion, Ahamu went straight into his bedroom and stayed inside.
No matter how much the servants outside begged, he was unwilling to open the door.
When this news reached Takumu Khan, the elderly Khan sighed helplessly and changed his previous stern attitude in front of Aham.
"Gerle, tell me, isn't Ben Khan too harsh on Ahamu ..."
As Takumu Khan said this, a figure walked out from the darkness, slowly sat down next to the Khan, and said.
"You were right in teaching Aham. If he is so irresponsible, he will just grow up under your protection, the Khan."
"Then our Canglang Nation is not far from destruction. Even if you don't teach him, the great Changshengtian will do the same."
The figure said, smiling at Takumu Khan.
After hearing the words of his best friend, Takumu Khan fell silent, and memories of how he had led the Canglang Kingdom step by step since he ascended the throne flashed before his eyes.
"The Khan is known as the 'Wolf Lord' by the world, but the world doesn't know that you have such a gentle side."
Looking at the silent Takumu Khan, Gerle said with a smile.
Hearing this, the image of a woman in a long robe appeared in Takumu Khan's eyes.
"Aham is the only child of Ben Khan and Zhuoya. Ben Khan promised her that he would protect Aham."
"But... my time is running out, and the Canglang Kingdom will eventually be handed over to the child Ahamu."
As he spoke, Takumu Khan was like a lion in his twilight years, with a hint of loneliness flashing in his eyes.
If there was a third person here, he would definitely panic after hearing what Takumi Khan just said.
It turns out that a man as brave as a lion like Takumu Khan doesn't have much time left!
In fact, as early as when he agreed to the marriage alliance with the Xia Kingdom, Takumu Khan's health had already been deteriorating.
In order to prevent the Xia Kingdom from causing trouble after Aham ascended the throne, Tuomu Khan chose to propose to the Xia royal family.
