The General Military Mansion in Renzhi Pass is the most important building in the entire Guancheng. It is not only the daily living and official business of the general military officer of Sekijo, but also the base camp during the war. To say that this is the heart and brain of human beings is absolutely not wrong.

The welcome hall is the most spacious and luxuriously decorated place in the General Soldier's Mansion. Because the previous commanders and commanders would receive the Qincha who came with the holy decree in hand. will also hold a banquet here to entertain the imperial court.

Today, the welcome hall was once again lit up with drums and drums. At the same time, hundreds of wine tables were placed, arranged in the shape of a "冂" character in the hall. On top of these wine tables, all kinds of fine wine and delicacies are placed. You don't even have to taste it in person, just looking at it, it's already beautiful and mouth-watering.

The top stroke of the word "冂" belongs to the main position. Possessed by the King of Extermination, of course. There was another palm wine table next to it, and the two couples who were the first of the guests were seated. On the left side, there are Zhou Xueyu, the city lord of Wuyang City, the Dharma Protector Elder of the North City, and Keqing Worship, plus many officers in the Renzhi Pass. On the right side, there are eleven wingers, as well as the commanders and centurions in the Black Wolf Army, and so on.

After three rounds of wine, the atmosphere at the banquet gradually warmed up. You need to know that both sides belong to the rough men in the military, sitting together and drinking a few bowls of wine with each other, even if there is a lot of mustard, they can gradually see it. Since you can't cut down your opponent with a knife, it's the same with a wine bowl to knock your opponent to the ground.

Since they have such a thought, the more they drink, the more fierce they become. After a while, the hall was already full of cups and bowls, and wine jars and jugs were everywhere. When they were excited, a few begging centurions let go of their throats and sang songs from the prairie. As if a hundred voices were called, the rest of the centurions and thousands, as well as several wingmen, all joined in and sang together.

People stop here, of course, not to be outdone. Several lieutenants were the first to speak and sang a song "No Clothes". This is a war song recorded in the Book of Songs-Qin Feng. In the past, the Guanzhong soldiers of the Qin State sang this war song, conquered the east and the west, conquered the city, and finally swept the six countries and unified the world. Thousands of years later, it is still impassioned and inspiring.

At this moment, I heard these lieutenants singing "No Clothes". Other officers in Renzhi Pass, and even some elders and guest secretaries in Wuyang City, also participated. In an instant, the songs of the Central Plains and the desert rose one after another in the hall, penetrating the roof and reaching into the sky, as if it had become an alternative contest.

Bailu frowned, glanced at her husband, and shook her head gently. The blue wolf didn't care about this, but he was also happy, reaching out on the wine table and gently patting it to the rhythm, and humming along with it in his mouth. But suddenly seeing his wife glaring at him, the blue wolf couldn't help but be stunned. But then he restrained his smile, pressed his palms to the desk at the same time, and said solemnly: "Stop!"

As soon as the word is spoken, the order is forbidden. All the winged people in the hall and the people of the Black Wolf Army immediately stopped singing and stopped singing. The King of Extermination also waved his hand, signaling everyone in Wuyang City and the people to silence. In an instant, the hall changed from singing to silence. Calm down thoroughly.

The blue wolf looked back, his eyes shining. The drunkenness that had appeared before due to wanton drinking has long disappeared without a trace. He said in a deep voice: "A, we are very grateful for your kindness and hospitality with such fine wine. ”

The King of Extermination nodded, "Brother Yi is polite. ”

The blue wolf said, "But we are not here today to drink. The men on the grassland have always been straight, and they don't like to bend like you Central Plains people. So I'll get straight to the point. What do you want when you find someone to contact us this time?"

The King of Extermination shouted, "Refreshed." Then I might as well put it bluntly. Brother, I want your help to reclaim the throne that rightfully belongs to me. ”

The blue wolf said in a condensed voice: "An A, you want to be the emperor of Great Wei?"

Without hesitation, the King of Extermination said, "I should have been the Emperor of Great Wei. ”

The blue wolf said slowly: "But you only have one person at hand. If you want to be the emperor of Great Wei with just such a small number of soldiers, it is like a small snake on the grassland, but if you want to swallow a tall horse, it is impossible to do it. ”

The King of Extermination said, "Exactly." So I need the help of the soldiers and horses of the Desert Realm. I need you and the Twelve Winged People to help suppress the old immortals in the Central Plains. ”

The blue wolf said in a deep voice: "The man on the grassland desert has never been afraid of life and death. But our death will also be worthy of our death, and we must die worthwhile. A, what price can you pay to make our sons and daughters feel that their death is actually valuable?"

The King of Extermination asked rhetorically, "Then brother, what do you think is worth your favor?"

The blue wolf was silent. After thinking about it for a long time, I still can't answer this question. Immediately subconsciously looked back at his wife. Bailu is obviously aware of this problem. immediately spoke: "If you want the prairie men to help, it's not difficult. The prince only needs to agree, after the matter is completed, he will pay Shuofang, Wuyuan, Yunzhong, Dingxiang and other four counties as a reward, then the millions of people who control the strings on the grassland will be driven by the prince and will die without regrets. ”

When these words came out, everyone here changed color without exception. Zhou Xueyu blurted out without thinking: "Lord, this condition cannot be agreed!"

The King of Extermination nodded calmly and said slowly, "The land of the Hetao." Hehe~ Mrs. Bailu breathed a big sigh. ”

The so-called Hetao is an area east of Helan Mountain, south of Wolf Mountain and Daqing Mountain. Because when the Yellow River flows through here, it naturally forms a large bend, so that this area forms a terrain surrounded by rivers on three sides. Hence the name "Hetao".

This area has always been known for its fertile land and abundant water and grass, so it is also called "Saishang Jiangnan". In all dynasties, there are folk songs that say: "The Yellow River is harmful, and there is only one benefit." It means that the place where the Yellow River flows through is full of disasters, and only the Hetao area has enjoyed the benefits brought by the Yellow River.

Although the Hetao area belongs to the Central Plains, it is very close to the desert boundary. It is also very suitable for grazing. For generations, if the Desert Realm wanted to go south, it would first choose to seize this area. Use this to build and strengthen your strength, and then make the next step. If it is a group of heroes competing in troubled times, the Hetao area has a dangerous terrain and abundant products, and it is the most advantageous base for the world.

Therefore, some people in the ancients once commented on the Hetao region in this way: Shaanxi is the upper reaches of the world, and those who control the life of the world are also; Shaanxi is also in the world, and the Jews are the head; and if they are in the head, they will die. The Hetao looks south to Guanzhong, the head of the world, the one who gets the Hetao walks the world, and those who lose the Hetao lose the world, the Hetao is safe, the world is safe, the Hetao is chaotic, the world is chaotic, the world is chaotic.

The King of Extermination and the Blue Wolf are brothers, though they are now brothers. However, the Central Plains and the Desert Realm, between the Great Wei and the Qiyan people, because of their different interests, can never really become brothers, and they must eventually meet each other.

Now, if the Exterminating King really agreed to cede the Hetao region to the Desert Realm in order to regain the throne of Great Wei, then it would be tantamount to drinking water to quench his thirst. Even if you can now get the help of the beggars to reclaim the throne. But in the future, the power of the beggars will be greatly expanded because they have obtained the Hetao.

When the time comes, the Qiyan people will never be satisfied with just one river loop, and will definitely continue to invade the Central Plains in the south. Even if Great Wei can resist it, it will definitely suffer heavy losses because of it. Then there is no doubt that the act of ceding the Hetao at this moment is a veritable tiger breeding. That's why Zhou Xueyu didn't even think about it, so he blurted out that the King of Extermination could not agree.

The King of Extermination looked back at the blue wolf and asked, "What does the righteous brother mean?"

The wolf lifted the bowl and drank it all. Said: "The meaning of Bailu is what I mean." ”

The King of Extermination remained silent and said, "300,000 taels of silver, 300,000 horses of silk cloth, and 100,000 stones of grain." Every year, it is given to the desert world by the Great Wei. As long as Dawei is still alive for a day, I promise that this reward will never be interrupted. In addition, Da Wei can choose another clan daughter from the clan to marry your son. How about replacing the Loop?"

Bailu said with a smile: "Does the prince want to be friendly? If you want to talk about the conditions, this condition is indeed generous enough." But we beggars are accustomed to taking whatever we want. Eating is not what we like. ”

The King of Extermination narrowed his eyes slightly, and said lightly: "I even understand the idiom of food that comes to me." It seems that you have read a lot of books from the Central Plains, brother and sister. ”

Bai Lu smiled and said: "The culture of the Central Plains is broad and profound, far better than the desert. Therefore, the book of the Central Plains is very worthy of our reading. However, I have heard that the prince is an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, but I will never dare to get an axe in front of the prince. ”

The King of Extermination snorted and said, "It is absolutely impossible for the entire Hetao Land to be given to you. If you insist on this demand, then the matter of cooperation will have to be abandoned. ”

Bailu's eyes were wonderful, and Yan Ran said: "Do business." In the words of the Central Plains, it is to open the sky and ask for the price, and pay back the money on the ground. As long as you talk slowly, you can always get along. If the prince thinks that there are too many places in the entire Hetao, then we can also only need the three counties of Wuyuan, Yunzhong, and Dingxiang.

However, on the other hand, the prince also had to allocate all the money, food, cloth and other things promised before. As for marrying a clan daughter, this can be exempted. Because the two sons of the Great Khan have already agreed on their families, and in two years, they will officially marry. When the time comes, if the prince is interested, he can come and have a glass of wine. ”

The King of Extermination was noncommittal about drinking wine or something. Ning Sheng said: "The money and grain can be doubled, but the land must not be ceded. This Great Wei world was brought down by this king and his father back then, inch by inch. If it is ceded out in the hands of this king, after the death of this king, he will not see his father again. ”

Bailu sighed, spread his hands, and said, "Then the prince, please forgive us for not being able to help."
