Chapter 302: The deep trough is also unattainable

In the desolate wilderness, caravans, large and small, walked along the avenues.

Yao Yun sat in the spacious carriage, looking at the desolate scene outside the curtain, and sighed very emotionally in his heart, along the way, there was no danger on the road.

There was no road in the wilderness, but it was the power of wealth that allowed countless merchants to come and go, first there was a financial road, so there was a trade route, and finally the caravans from all over the country communicated with each other, tacitly opening up a broad road in the wilderness.

In this dangerous world of fierce beasts, ghosts, and monsters, every trade route is extremely precious, and he opened up it with the lessons of blood before him.

A well-established trade route perfectly bypasses the territory of powerful beasts, monsters, and even ghosts, and is tenaciously and vigorously active in the cracks.

A few days ago, Yao Yun returned to Xidu from Licheng, and obtained the celadon fired by the craftsmen from the Xidu ceramic workshop, and he was very satisfied, so he set off to the capital of Chu to participate in the banquet of the monarch.

There were tassels, Xiaozhu Jing, Sun Muyue who accompanied the team, and Cangman and three thousand Miao Yuan troops accompanied him to protect the safety of the king, so to speak, except for the bald dragon and Wu Tong who did not follow, all the elites of the Xi Kingdom came!

Originally, Yao Yun was not prepared to bring so many troops, but the fate of the Xi clan and the Xi country was all on Yao Yun alone, Wu Tong and the bald dragon were not worried about his safety, and under the premise of the protection of the third-grade qi refiner and tassels, Yao Yun was forced to bring all the elite troops of the Xi country, claiming that there were ghost soldiers and ghost generals guarding the city, and Xi was guarded by them.

Yao Yun had no choice but to take the army all the way to Chu with a high-profile ride.

Fortunately, this time it is the monarch's banquet, which is an exchange of politics, military, culture and commerce among the southern countries, and many monarchs are tired of showing off their strength, and every year they will send elite divisions to participate in the monarch's banquet to show the strength of their country.

To some extent, this is an otherworldly version of the military parade, a battlefield without gunsmoke and blood, but the impact behind them is far-reaching.

Even the monarchs of some small countries will send a large number of soldiers and horses to guard their own safety, plus the slaves at will, the number of entourages of the monarchs of various countries is generally thousands, and some small monarchs will even slap their swollen faces and fill up fat people to pull out an elite army that looks beautiful.

The result is self-evident, and you have to tighten your belt to get by.

Speaking of Yao Yun, although the three thousand men and horses are a little exaggerated, they will not cause criticism, it is exactly the upper limit of the Chu monarch Chu Hou allowing the guest monarch to carry the army, and no matter how much Chu Hou sleeps at night, he will not be able to sleep well.

Yao Yun didn't know much about these things, but after listening to Sun Muyue's explanation, he suddenly realized, and then couldn't help but think that Wu Tong and Bald Dragon might not just be worried about his safety when he went out, but to a large extent to show the strength of Xiguo!

Thinking about it like this, Yao Yun instantly felt that his guess was not far from ten, the bald dragon, Wu Tong and others were easy to say, but only he had a good face, he was driven out of the imperial capital by someone back then, and finally came to a remote place and almost collapsed, in this case, after the salted fish was reborn, he naturally had to show off his strength!

Under normal circumstances, it is very necessary for a country to demonstrate its force, which can not only inspire its citizens and stabilize the people, but also deter other countries, which is a very meaningful thing.

However, at the moment, showing off force and showing off the national prestige does not have much significance for Xi Guo, and the battle out of the city has already made the southern countries look at Xi Guo differently.

Thinking about it, he suddenly remembered the bald dragon's incomparably longing little eyes for the monarch's banquet, Yao Yun slapped his thigh, that's right, it must be so!

Yao Yun couldn't help but feel distressed, a large army has a long way to go, and it costs a lot of money and grain, and the loss of grain and grass along the way is not small, and it definitely needs to be supplied along the way, and the state of Chu held a banquet for the monarch, just waiting to earn this money, and food is not a price at all.

It can be expected that Yao Yun will need to hemorrhage this time, and the gold, grain and grass will be squandered like flowing water.

Thinking of this, Yao Yun's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "Bald Dragon, you are lonely!"

Xiao Zhujing was also sitting in the carriage, and when he heard Yao Yun's words, he raised his little head curiously and asked Yao Yun: "Daddy, isn't the bald dragon looking after the house, he didn't follow!"

"What are you shouting Ben Long!?"

At this moment, a gloomy voice sounded in the carriage.

The little bamboo spirit and the iron-eating beast fought together, stroking the back of the giant panda with a comfortable face, and didn't raise his eyes when he spoke, giggling and laughing, but when he heard this, the little bamboo spirit pink carved jade face suddenly froze, and his mouth became 0-shaped.

"Grandpa Long, why are you here too!" Xiao Zhu was very elaborate, stuck out his little tongue, and his eyes were full of cunning.

The bald dragon ignored the cuteness of the little bamboo spirit, and said angrily: "What are you shouting about Benlong, bald dragon, look where Benlong is bald."

I haven't seen the bag on my head, and it will be a dragon's horn in the future,

Look at this one-horn again, it's a one-horned beast, what do you say is bald!"

Talking and talking, the bald dragon wanted to cry without tears, only the son of the world shouted before, and now even the ignorant goblin knows that he is bald, which makes him feel embarrassed!

Xiaozhu was very careful, and ran to Yao Yun's side in three steps and two steps, pulling his sleeves to seek refuge.

Speaking of which, this is still Yao Yun's pot, he opens his mouth bald dragon every day, closes his mouth bald dragon, and Xiao Zhujing naturally shouts under the influence of his ears and eyes.

Yao Yun felt funny in his heart, but he quickly thought of this big deal, and his heart ached, it was all money, although Xiguo relied on high-quality well salt, salt, ironware, and hundred refining divine soldiers to make a lot of money, but a country spends money everywhere, just to take the city costs a lot of money and food, every money is useful, this kind of face project is really not worth it.

"Ahem, Uncle Long, Qingzhu is still young, don't scare him, let's talk about something else, for example, why did you set up the master to let the whole team of the Cave Army accompany you before you set off, and why did you come with you. ”

The bald dragon was still angry, but when he heard Yao Yun's words, he suddenly felt empty, and he also listened to the conversation between the prince and Su Muyue, and understood that his little abacus would definitely not be able to hide from the brilliant son, so he smiled shyly:

"Hehe, Shizi, Ben Long and Wu Lao Er are indeed worried about your comfort, as for Ben Long... Of course, it is to appreciate the majestic and high-spirited demeanor of the soldiers of my Xi Kingdom!"

Yao Yun is really like this! Yao Yun's heart hurts, lonely money... Golden gold, Yao Yun is not a miser, but he has a steady temperament, does not like to continue his life, and is the most practical, this show off of force is just the icing on the cake, dispensable, he doesn't want to spend money in vain.

Yao Yun just wanted to say a few words about the bald dragon, but when his eyes fell on the longing dragon eyes of the bald dragon, he was silent!

He didn't know much about the past of the previous generation, but from a few words, he could feel the depression and forbearance of the bald dragon and Wu Tong, and that kind of longing and longing prompted them to keep fighting.

Thinking of this, Yao Yun's mentality changed, and under the shocked gaze of the bald dragon, he laughed:

"Forget it, Uncle Long, we are immersed in hard work, isn't it just to make the princes of the world look sideways one day, and now let the southern countries know that we have the Xi clan will never fall, even if we are in a low valley, it is an existence that is beyond their reach!"
