Chapter 40: Alone (2)

In Longyang City, Jiudou and his party were treated as spies and locked in a dungeon, and the soldiers locked them up with iron chains. The next day, his subordinates reported to Tomorrow that a group of spies were being held in the dungeon, asking for instructions on how to deal with them. When Ling Tian heard about it, he wanted to ask his subordinates to directly execute these people, but when he heard that the number of people was a bit large, he decided to go to the dungeon himself and interrogate the prisoners.

"Who are you, why did you sneak into the city, did you come to spy on the military, and I was truthfully recruited. Ling Tian looked domineeringly at these people who were half-squatting in the cell chained.

"Are you General Ling Tian, the leader of the Flame Army? The little one's name is Jiudou, and he is an envoy sent by the Emperor to negotiate peace. This time, because of the large number of people in our entourage, we just stopped in the city, but we were unexpectedly caught in the dungeon by your men. The general was newly defeated, defeated by the cities of Sanchuan and Baili, both of which had now rebelled against the empire. The emperor wanted to make an appointment to flank the rebels and divide the two cities equally with the general, so he sent me to negotiate peace. If the general is sincere, he should not treat us like this. Jiudou took the lead and said, although he was reduced to a prisoner, there was still a bit of arrogance between his words.

"Peace talks? Ling Tian sneered, and his voice interrupted Jiudou abruptly, "What credit do you royal court have to talk to me about peace talks." I lost my troops and soldiers the previous time, and now I still want to talk to me about peace. Do you want to force me to surrender with your might?"

"I have made a special trip across the land of the Three Cities, not to tell you a joke, but to come with full sincerity. Now I have come to talk to you about peace talks, because our emperor has asked you, and besides, you have also been defeated, and I also know your current strength, and your current strength alone cannot compete with the rebels in the two cities. Since the two of us need to cooperate, our current common enemy should be the rebels in Baili and Sanchuan. Only these two cities have been defeated, and the rest is a matter of strength between us. Jiudou said and slowly stood up, arched his hand, and said to Ling Tian.

"Okay, let's talk about it. Ling Tian pondered for a moment and nodded slightly. "Originally, the armies of Sanchuan City and Baili City belonged to the emperor. It was also specially sent to defend against your army. But now the situation has changed, these armies have mutinied, and they have the greatest military strength and strength. Looking at the northern cities, there is no city that can compete with it alone. For the sake of a common goal, the emperor sent me as an envoy this time. When I first arrived in your land, I don't know what was wrong that angered the chief, please forgive me. But when it comes to peace talks, the situation is tense right now, and you have to think about it, and I'm afraid you don't want to wait for them to do it to you in advance. ”

Although he was cunning, his eyes were shining, and he was not afraid at all, just waiting for Ling Tian's reaction.

Ling Tian hesitated for a moment, then said with a wry smile: "What you said sounds very reasonable, we have a common enemy, and their strength is indeed strong. But since you are here for peace talks, and you want me to help fight them, what good can I gain?

Jiudou pondered for a moment and said, "What our emperor means is that the grievances and merits of the past should be put aside first. On our side, lead the dragon camp team in Beichang City and the surrounding areas to attack Sanchuan City, and the leader you will lead the army to attack Baili City, and we will attack left and right, so that the two cities cannot help each other. Well, we have brought some jewels and money for the king to expand his military strength, and they are still in the hiding place where we just entered the city. In addition, there is also the emperor's edict, in addition to this, we have also brought a few beauties to present to the chief. ”

Ling Tian was taken aback, "Your emperor is really a cheerful person, and you are so willing to have money and beauties, then I'm not welcome." ”

"Come, unload the chains from this envoy, let these people go first, find them a home in the city, let them rest for a while, this leader has decided to form an alliance with them. ”

"Thank you, little one, Lord Chief, let's go get the financial report, jewelry, money, and hope you will accept it. Jiudou said triumphantly and left with his subordinates.

Ever since he came to the Heavenly Prison, the Son of Ling Tian had been following him, silent from beginning to end, without saying a word. Wait for the group of figures to fade away, after leaving the dungeon. He shook his head and asked his father, "Father, why did you let these people go? Also, why did you agree to form an alliance with them, aren't you worried that this is a trap? We just fought with them before, and if we fight again, I am afraid that our strength will be even weaker."

Ling Tian looked back at his son and said with a smile: "Son, you don't understand, because my father ostensibly promised to promote this alliance, he has no idea of sending troops for the time being. In fact, I hope that they will eat dogs, and then both sides will lose, and we will reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”

Ling Tian added, "My soldiers are not here to die in vain, only when it is most profitable, we should send troops. Otherwise, you think that just that little jewelry money and beauty can make me feel excited, but these jewelry money can still be laughed at, after all, people took the initiative to send it to the door, don't don't want it in vain. ”

Kirby glanced at his father quietly, and suddenly said: "Father, I always thought that these officers and soldiers were the most cunning, but I didn't expect you to be the most cunning. ”

"You kid, what kind of cunning is this, this is just the way to survive. I also know that we have just suffered a big defeat, and now we have the strength to attack the city again. How can I be used as a knife by others, and he wants to borrow my sword to get rid of her opponents, why don't I sit back and wait for them to lose both, and then come and reap the benefits of the fisherman. It's just a strategy. ”

Outside the dungeon, Jiudou took his own men and two of Ling Tian's men sent to follow them, and the group returned to the inn. Jiudou felt that he had completed his mission and was ready to go back on an errand, and he couldn't help but feel a little complacent.

"Two adults, hard work, a little meaning, not a respect. At this time, he ordered his subordinates to take out a little money and reward the two people who came with him, and ordered his subordinates to carry the several large boxes of jewels and money he had brought to Ling Tian's mansion.

"It is good to say, but if the envoy has any commands, just say. I'll take these items to the chief's mansion with your people first, and the two beauties you said will also call them over, and we'll go first. Later, we will send someone to take the envoy to the embassy to rest. As soon as the two finished speaking, everything began.

After a while, his subordinates brought out three women from the room, and they came over, and saw that their faces were as delicate as the moon, and their eyes were bright and bright, burning and moving, and they were extraordinary.

Maybe it was because she had never seen such a beautiful woman, looking at these three beauties who were incredibly beautiful, the two subordinates sent by Ling Tian were about to drool.

"Such a beautiful woman, it's a pity that she was dedicated to the chief. If you stay with me for one night, I'm willing to let me die. One of them said abruptly.

Seeing this, Jiudou had an idea, he wanted to win over these two people, and took the opportunity to say: "Then you two might as well choose one of them to keep and enjoy, and the remaining two women to present to the leader, okay?"

"No, these are the women of the chief, if we enjoy them privately, we must die without a place to bury. I just said it casually, Your Excellency, don't take it seriously. The two of them wanted it very much, but in fact, they quickly shook their heads and refused.

Jiudou also saw through their thoughts, and echoed and said: "It's really hard for the two of you to work for the leader, one more person and one less person, the leader won't mind." It's just a woman, it's not a tribute. In the next intention to make friends, to be a friend, in the future, but wherever there is a place to use, please feel free to speak. ”

"If Your Excellency looks up to us so much, then we should be respectful and obey our fate. After that, the two looked greedy, and looked at the three women in front of them with some frivolity.

Although the three women were born very beautifully, their faces were as dead as ashes, and there was no trace of happiness. Their hearts were dead from the moment they set out, in fact, they all knew that this time, they were being sacrificed as objects to these rebels for others to play with at will. In short, if it falls into their hands, I don't know what it will be played with.

"It's just her, this girl doesn't look bad. The two pointed to a light woman in the middle, dressed in yellow gauze. They suddenly looked at each other, and they both smiled maliciously.

"Okay, then I'll keep her for the two of you first, and you can take the rest first. Later, the two of you will come over and take your share again. Jiudou had his own little abacus in his heart, and only used a mere woman to bribe these two people to do things for himself. He thought to himself that maybe he could lay an eyeliner for himself in the city this time. In the future, every move of the Flame Army can be monitored and detected.

By the way, I haven't asked the two of you yet, what's your name?9 Duo asked softly, in a low voice.

"Who will remember a little soldier like us, but since the Envoy thinks so highly of us, we will tell you the truth. My name is Xiang Xiangliu, and his name is Poison Dragon. One of them replied.

The most estimated thing in this world is the human heart, and these two could never have imagined that someone would be willing to do what they liked, and they captured their hearts at once. If it weren't for meeting someone like Jiudou, they wouldn't have been able to get such a beautiful woman at all, and they could still enjoy the same treatment as the leader. Therefore, they felt the same smell as Jiudou, and the distance between the three of them was suddenly shortened.

"The two of us have never encountered such a good thing as today, giving us money and giving us beautiful women. It is the first time I have met someone who understands us like this, and in the future, whenever I have any commands, I will speak up. We are touched by your kindness. We've thanked you again, we'll go back first, and I'll come back to you later!"

Jiudou was also a little unbelievable, he didn't expect to use a woman to subdue two hearts, it seems that he didn't have much of a problem with installing eyeliner in the city.

After dealing with the gifts and beauties, the two came to the inn again. They personally came to invite Jiudou and arranged for a group of people to arrive at the pavilion.

After a busy afternoon, all of a sudden it was evening, Jiudou invited the two to drink, and called the beautiful woman to accompany the two of them.

During the banquet, the two also agreed to respond to him in the city, which is equivalent to planting two nails in the city.

After three rounds of drinking, several people drank darkly, and the two errand men were drunk, and Jiudou was still a little sober, so he arranged for his men to take them down to rest, and let the woman in a yellow veil serve them to sleep.
