Chapter 463: The Land of Dawan
When King Dawan saw it, he didn't feel embarrassed, and said ashamedly: "Haha, the princess of Shangguo is really personable and extraordinary, let's understand it! Princess Taiping and General Han are polite!" After speaking, he quickly bowed.
Princess Taiping smiled: "The king is polite! Come, please sit down, Mei'er, you pour us wine first, Yun'er, you pour wine for the king and the prime minister!"
As soon as they arrived at the wine table, they entered their program, and the two of them immediately toasted! After two rounds, Xiao Han smiled: "Haha, Dawan is really rich in things and people, we have learned this exotic customs! There is something that General Ben wants to ask the king, I don't know what your sweat and blood are like, can we see it?" Obviously, he has come to be interested.
"This is a piece of cake! Prime Minister of State, you go and tell our Lord Duwei, just say that our nobles of Dawan Kingdom are here, and the princess and general of the Han Dynasty want to see our bloody BMW, and ask him to bring a few horses! Well, just five horses, haha, just as a meeting gift from my Dawan Kingdom to General Han and Princess Taiping!"
When Xiao Han heard this, he smiled: "Okay, refreshing! Haha, it's a pity that our trip was originally to tease the Xiongnu Dadan Yu Yizhixian, and we didn't bring any valuable gifts! However, we promise that we will purge the Huns in the Hexi Corridor, we will open up trade routes, and our Han Dynasty will trade with your countries in the Western Regions, how about it?"
"Ah! Good, good, good! We have long heard that the Han Dynasty was a big country, and your tea and silk are excellent things, especially silk, which is worth ten taels of gold when it is transported to Rome! Haha, by the way, how much is this silk worth in the Han Dynasty?"
Princess Taiping smiled: "Hehe, my brother doesn't understand this kind of thing, but I know very well, it's just one or two gold! We open up the Silk Road, you are a transit station, we will only accept you one or two gold, you earn more or less, we don't care! However, each horse also comes with a tax of one or two gold! Our imperial court also wants to raise troops to open up the Hexi Corridor!"
"Ah! So, you are fighting against my Great Huns? Then, do you want our Dawan Kingdom to help? There are also Yueshi and other countries! We are all looking forward to someone going to war with the Great Huns, and at that time, of course, we will also have a piece of the pie!" When the king heard this, he immediately asked eagerly.
When Xiao Han heard this, he was happy: "Haha, in this way, the countries of the Western Regions are also in favor of us starting a war with the Xiongnu? Okay, good, good! Haha, then, let's join forces to fight the Xiongnu, how about it?"
"Okay! General Han, you don't know, our people in the Western Regions have long been bullied by the Huns and have long been unable to raise their heads! I heard that your Han Dynasty is a big country, haha, the strength must be above the Huns, I don't know how many soldiers and horses you are ready to dispatch? We are willing to provide support such as grain, grass, and baggage!" The King of Dawan smiled.
As soon as Princess Taiping heard it, she knew what they meant: it seems that the Hexi Corridor is really a piece of fat, and everyone wants to take a bite!
So, she laughed out loud and was happy: "We, send at least 500,000 iron cavalry! Let's fight the Huns, it's just a piece of cake, hehe, just me and my brother will kill the Huns in the dark! When our General Wei Qing comes with 300,000 iron cavalry, the Huns should get out! By the way, our General Wei Qing has now occupied Heshuo! Open up the Hexi Corridor, just around the corner!"
"Ahh
Xiao Han smiled: "The Prime Minister has never been to our Han Dynasty, haha, how can we have more than 100,000 chariots in the Han Dynasty? How many cavalry can be 100 horses?
"Okay! So, then let's play with the Great Huns together! Haha, my Dawan country also has 100,000 elite cavalry, why don't we all hand it over to General Han's command, how about it?" The king of Dawan seemed to like Xiao Han more and more.
Seeing this, Princess Taiping's heart moved and she smiled: "Is it that King Dawan has a princess who is as beautiful as a flower, and is ready to recruit my brother as a concubine?"
She was originally laughing, but King Nazhi Dawan laughed: "That's right, haha, the more I look at General Han, the more I like it, I don't know if Her Royal Highness the princess can fulfill it?"
"Yes!Haha, my brother marries a wife, the more the merrier! See, including this princess, they are all my brother's wives, haha, as long as your princess doesn't mind, my brother can look down on her, hehe, then, we can marry her!
Princess Xiangxiang smiled: "Yes, my lord, our princess is a good person in the world, so we all have to wait for Her Royal Highness the princess! However, if your princess is too ugly, our princess may not be able to look down on it!" After speaking, she has charmingly massaged Princess Taiping.
Only then did the king come to his senses and smiled: "Haha, I know! Why don't you go to the capital with me in a while, meet my daughter, and if Her Royal Highness the princess takes a fancy to her, then let her wait for General Han and Her Royal Highness the princess!"
"Okay, good, good! That's how happy is that! Prime Minister of State, isn't your daughter pretty? By the way, you Dawan women, as long as they can be compared with our Xiangxiang and Ji'an, can marry my brother, haha, we want beauties, not too much!" Princess Taiping became more and more presumptuous.
When the minister heard this, he laughed: "Haha, we are a small state, how can we compare with the big state? However, our king's princess is indeed as beautiful as a flower, and she is not under these two princesses!" Obviously, he has seen that they are princesses.
"Very good, good, then, we are full of wine and food, let's go to your palace to see my brother's new wife! Hehe, brother, I have said that I have accepted her, and I want her to wait for me! Mei'er, still in your management! Well, Princess Ji'an will also help to promote her!" Princess Taiping was very excited.
When the king heard this, he didn't know why, he thought they had some bad intentions, and he was a little worried, and when he was about to speak, Lin Xuemei had already spoken: "King, what our princess means is to ask your princess to learn the rules of our Taiping Princess Mansion, by the way, we also want to improve her swordsmanship and let her accompany us to fight the Huns!"
"Oh, oh, I see, haha, my daughter knows some swordsmanship herself, I hope she doesn't disappoint Her Royal Highness Princess Taiping!"
After drinking for a while, seeing that the king was a little dizzy, Princess Taiping smiled: "Okay, let's go and see your princess! As long as she is beautiful and has a good character, she will be my brother's wife!
"Yes, yes, yes! Haha, Your Royal Highness the Princess, rest assured, our Dawan Kingdom has long wanted to trade with the Han Dynasty, and everything is up to Her Royal Highness the Princess!" The king was immediately happy and immediately complied.
Princess Taiping was overjoyed: "Okay, let's go to the palace with the king! Well, let's stay here with our hundred feathers! If the Huns dare to come, they can resist for a while!"
"Ahh
Seeing this, Lin Xuemei smiled: "Hehe, Lord Guo, our hundred elite horsemen are comparable to 100,000 male soldiers! Haha, according to our Taiping Princess's thoughts, this Hun will come with me sooner or later! Hehe, if the whole Dawan Kingdom has any opinions to know the majesty of our Taiping Princess and General Han, please okay!"
Hearing this, the king of Dawan and the prime minister of the country were all taken aback: what should the Xiongnu army do? It seems that the princess of Taiping and General Han will be served well, so that they can prevent disasters for themselves!
Seeing that the two of them were sad in a blink of an eye, Princess Taiping smiled: "Haha, what a big deal? The Huns are coming, let's play with them! I see that the mountains in front are good, Han Sui, you should be there to base the enemy! Haha, the Huns are coming, say, their army is coming, we will greet them personally!"
"Yes, Your Royal Highness the Princess, don't worry!Haha, we will definitely teach the Huns a lesson that they can't forget!" Han Sui smiled.
After listening to Princess Taiping's arrangement, the minister of the country was somewhat convinced: "Your Royal Highness Princess, are you sure that the Huns will come?" But, can you hold this mountain with a hundred horsemen? It is better to let them go to the capital with us, the walls of our capital are strong, and there are 100,000 elite soldiers, so we can spend a while with the Huns!"
"Hehe, Prime Minister, thank you for your kindness! However, if you fight with the Huns, this mountain range is more effective than the city wall! Han Sui, according to the meaning of our General Han, build a ring fortification! It must be completed tomorrow morning, if it is not completed, you will be in danger, but don't blame us for not showing up in time, our General Han is going to get married! We can come over in the afternoon!" Princess Taiping ordered carefully.
When the king heard this, his courage also came up, and he laughed: "Okay, very good, in this case, I will send another 5,000 soldiers and horses to help!
He seemed to see that they were not mortals, and they had a advantage to take advantage of, and he also wanted to learn how the Han Dynasty fought against the Huns!
As soon as Xiao Han saw it, he knew his intentions: "Haha, my father-in-law intends to learn from us how to fight the Huns?
Xiao Han is not hypocritical this time, and immediately climbed into a relationship, although he has not seen the princess yet, but he already feels that he can marry this princess, at least, for the sake of the Han Dynasty, for the sake of the famous "Silk Road", this princess must be married!
Seeing this, Princess Taiping laughed: "Okay, very good, king, let's go, my brother can't wait to marry your princess right away! Hehe, tonight, your princess will marry my brother! Let's protect the safety of your Dawan Kingdom!" After speaking, he smiled confidently.
The minister was stunned for a moment and smiled: "But, don't you only have a hundred or so people? The Huns have at least 500,000 elite cavalry, and the rest of the cavalry is innumerable!"
"Haha, the hundred people under our General Han are one million troops! Okay, Prime Minister, you can send troops to learn tactics from us, but it's best not to go to the prairie to play! Just hold on to the city, let's guarantee that the Huns won't move you at all!" Lin Xuemei was even more confident.
She has fought with Xiao Han and Princess Taiping on the prairie many times, and she has fully understood the strategy of the two, and has become more and more respectful of them, and consciously surrendered to them.
When the prime minister saw this, he believed it, and hastened with the king, and immediately took them back to the palace!
The king really kept his word, and immediately sent 5,000 soldiers to help Han Sui and them build the ring fortifications, and now, Han Sui was happy, and in one fell swoop, he almost became a captain!
With a happy face, he almost regarded the five thousand soldiers as slaves!
