Guano Island.

Since Yang Hao left, this can be said to be Shuoxiang's world, and unlike Yang Hao's character of all interests, Shuoxiang belongs to the kind of person who is extremely cruel.

Staying in this place where birds don't, his only hobby is to find trouble with those mountain and forest tribes, exterminate small tribes, kill each other's men, and the other party's women between the walls, so that he can enjoy a thrill of conquest.

Ever since the Great Qi army wiped out the arrogant tribe and some tribes that were closer to the station, most of the savage forces in the mountains and forests were terrified of these outsiders.

The Daqi army, which had tasted the sweetness, searched the mountains around the garrison in a small squad manner, hoping to pacify the mountains and forests in one fell swoop.

For a time, many tribes were in danger, but some of the powerful tribes who were originally kings and hegemons in the mountains and forests, they felt fierce, and in the face of these arrogant outsiders, not only were they fearless, but even these tribes began to ambush the Daqi army by virtue of their familiarity with the terrain.

At the beginning, the Daqi army, in the face of this elusive tactic, was beaten in a mess.

Angry, Shuo Xiang gave up the cooking of dispersing his forces, concentrated his superior forces, and directly attacked the tribes that had been discovered.

After being tortured, information about the arrogant tribe was asked.

The furious Shuo Xiang directly led the army and attacked these tribes with great ferocity.

After the leaders of these tribes were put to death with a very perverted punishment, some of the captured male captives were sent to guano island to be dug up, and the rest were driven to the lake, where the soldiers were shot with bows and arrows for fun.

As for those women, they naturally became the playthings of these soldiers.

Countless women have been ravaged by brutal soldiers, and the slightest resistance will end up with blood splattered.

There were daily deaths in the barracks, and these dead people were thrown into the lake like garbage by the soldiers, and became the stomachs of fish and turtles.

After killing all these thorny tribes in the mountains and forests, the rest of the small tribes were frightened, and some tribes abandoned their places of residence and fled towards the mountains and forests.

And for those tribes who did not plan to flee, the leaders of the various tribes came to the Daqi military camp with the most beautiful women and exquisite furs to kneel down and pray for forgiveness from the upper clan.

Shuo Xiang naturally laughed at these tributes and demanded that these people immediately move out of the mountains and forests and live in the plains.

With these small tribes attached, the life of the soldiers guarding Guano Island was immediately nourished, and they could enjoy the women in their spare time, as well as the fat prey of these free laborers.

The moist life makes Shuo Xiang very cool.

Yang Hao seems to have forgotten the army of Guano Island, his daily life is extremely busy, and Yang Hao takes the construction of the dam and canal very seriously, and every day or two, Yang Hao personally inspects the construction site.

In mid-April, the envoys to the Youyou clan returned to Chang'an City.

But with them came a familiar face.

"I haven't seen you for many days, Leader Qi is fine."

Fei Geng said with a smile.

"The envoy is also unharmed, I don't know if your tribe is still satisfied with what our people have sent."

Fu Geng said in a deep voice: "The weapons sent by the Bo Qi tribe are naturally satisfied, and I came here this time for the covenant between the two clans. ”

Yang Hao raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh! Do you have any doubts about this covenant? ”

Fu Geng said: "The leader of Qi misunderstood, our clan has no objection to the alliance, but in order to make the covenant between the two clans more reliable, we hope that the two clans can send people to each other's tribes. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to a boy about ten years old.

In this kind of scene, the little boy was a little nervous, and when he saw Fei Geng mention himself, he stood up nervously.

"Kid Ren Kang, I've seen the leader of Qi."

Yang Hao saw that although the child was nervous, his demeanor was also decent, and he believed his identity a little.

"I didn't expect that there was still a set of protons, and sure enough, there are a few fools in this world after all."

Yang Hao sighed with emotion in his heart, smiled at the little boy and said: "Sure enough, he is young and promising, he is mighty at a young age, and he will become a great weapon in the future." After saying some unnutritious words of praise, he said to Fu Geng: "Your tribe's request is naturally reasonable, but I don't have a son, so I don't know if our officials can do it." ”

Fu Geng nodded and said: "Naturally, it is feasible, but our clan has sent Bo's young son, if the leader of Qi is sincere, ordinary officials are not good, the official system of the aristocracy, I also have some understanding, if the leader of Qi agrees to form an alliance, you must send an official at the level of a district chief to our clan." ”

Yang Hao frowned when he heard this, if Daqi was a feudal dynasty, then the district chief was equivalent to an important minister in the court.

In Daqi, in addition to being able to become the head of the district, in addition to being stronger in cultural knowledge than grassroots officials, his personal ability is also outstanding, and Yang Hao is naturally reluctant to send such a person as a hostage.

It's just that if you reject the Youyou, then it will make the other party feel that they don't have the sincerity to form an alliance at all.

Yang Hao didn't want to have a bad relationship with the Youyi clan at this time, so he frowned and thought for a while and said, "Yes, but as for who to send, our clan needs to discuss it, and then give an answer to the envoy in a few days." ”

When Gui Geng heard this, his heart was also relieved, and he hurriedly said: "I can, I hope that the covenant between the two clans of Qi and Shang will be as firm as passing through a high mountain, and flowing forever like a river." ”

Yang Hao nodded and said: "In this case, for the sake of better communication between you and my two clans, I hope to set up a city at the junction of the two clans, which is equivalent to the bazaar of the small clan, this city is not managed by either of the two clans, but only for the exchange of goods. ”

When Fu Geng heard this, her brain was running rapidly, thinking about the pros and cons.

Warring States Zuoqiu clearly said: If you can't believe it, the quality is useless. Forgiveness and courtesy, although there is no quality, who can do it? Gou has a clear letter, the hair of the stream, the marsh, the vegetable of the algae, the vessel of the basket and the kettle, and the water of the filthy line, can be recommended to the ghosts and gods, but can be ashamed of the prince, and the gentleman has the letter of the two countries, and he is courteous, and he is not qualified?

It means that even a trustworthy country needs hostages where there is an alliance, and it can be seen that both Yang Ha and Ren Yu are villains full of interests.

Yang Hao was not in a hurry to wait for Fu Geng's reply, but glanced at Ren Kang who was sitting beside him with a smile.

Seeing this, Ren Kang only felt as if he was being targeted by a poisonous snake, and a chill rushed up his back, making him shiver for a while, and he lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Yang Hao.

After a long time, Fei Geng raised his head and looked at Yang Hao.
