Chapter 447: Going East Can Turn Over the Yalu River 21
Hehe," Zhou Nan said with a smile while looking at the letter, "This Xiren with the name of Yelu Aguzhe is interesting. β
ββ"What's interesting?" Yang Keshi asked on the side.
ββ"Yelu Aguzhe is going to lead Mei Zhi's 20,000 men and horses to join us," Zhou Nan finished reading the letter and put it on the table, "but he asked us to send him 500 stone of grain." β
ββ"Is it true that he said in this letter that he wants to take refuge in us? It can't be a mistake, right? How can anyone take refuge in us and not pay us tribute, but ask us to send him food?! Yang Keshi rolled his eyes and said.
ββ"Eighty percent of them are hungry and stupid." Zuo Xiaosi said with a grin.
ββ"That's not enough," Zhou Nan said, "Yelu Agu Zhe also said in his letter that in the future, they must not be made enemies of the Xi people of the Chuli and Yaoli tribes. The Bird and Ori tribes who attacked Xiao Gan would have listened to orders. β
ββ"Da Lang, it seems that this person has an enmity with Xiao Gan! A few days ago, the two or three thousand people who escaped from Xianghe City passed through Xianghe from Jizhou and hurried to Ancicheng, presumably because Xiao Gan refused to accept them, thinking that they were wasting their food, so he drove them to Ancicheng. It can be seen that Xiao Gan has long had a dislike for this Agu Zhe. Yang Keshi thought of the soldiers he saw passing through Xianghe City to the south that day, and analyzed.
ββ"This Jeru-Aguzhe is not a treacherous man. If he wants us to send him food, he probably wants to sell it at a price, right? Five hundred stone of grain is not much, but it is not too little, so let's give it a try. Zhou Nan finally decided.
ββ"Da Lang, we don't have a lot of grain and grass here. A few days ago, the people in Xianghe City used a lot. What if this Jeru-Aguzhe only deceived us of our grain and grass, and became our enemy? Yang Keshi reminded.
ββ"Enemies? He didn't dare to hang it! Zuo Xiaosi said contemptuously.
ββ"If you want to keep fighting us, unless he's a fool." Zhou Nan also agreed with Zuo Xiaosi's view. "Aguzhe dares to open his mouth to ask for food, which means that he will not repay the debt. A debtor will never ask for food so boldly. β
ββIn the heart of a liar, everyone else is also a liar. Naturally, if Agu Zhe wanted to cheat the grain, he would never ask for it directly like now, but first approached Zhou Nan to please Zhou Nan, and then asked for this and that.
ββYang Keshi had no choice but to say, "Then let him send someone to get it!" He can't ask us to send it to him, can he?! β
ββ"That's not going to happen," Zhou Nan said with a smile, "Agu Zhe has already said in his letter that if he gives food, he will personally bring people to surrender and swear to heaven that he will never betray my Wansheng army." β
ββSeeing that Yang Keshi had nothing to say, Zhou Nancai asked the person who delivered the letter from Mei Zhibu to come in, and said, "After I go back, tell your general to let him come to Xianghe City early tomorrow morning to get food, and I promised him what he said in the letter." β
ββThe person who delivered the letter immediately bowed down and said, "My general will arrive on time tomorrow to meet your nobles." With that, he hurriedly went out and returned to Anci City.
ββEarly the next morning, Zhou Nan had five hundred stone of grain transported by car to the south gate of the city, and Zhou Nan took Zhou Fu to the south gate. saw that Yang Keshi was commanding people to set up a battle, preparing to meet Yelu Aguzhe.
ββA thousand Wansheng Iron Riders swung in a line on both sides of the road, and at the end were two hot air balloon chariots that were already full of air, ready to take off and float into the air at any time. A wooden platform was simply erected outside the city gate, probably to prepare for Yelu Aguzhe to visit Zhou Nan and perform the obedience ceremony. These Zhou Nan didn't know, but they didn't object, these nomads believed in the supremacy of force, and whoever was strong would listen to whomever they wanted. Just like this time, if he hadn't burned the grain depots of the two cities of Yelu Aguzhe twice, would he have taken the initiative to call himself a vassal like this?
ββA soldier ran in the distance and shouted, "Here we are!" Here it comes! β
ββWhen Yang Keshi saw it, he hurriedly shouted, "The magic car has taken off!" Get on the horse and welcome! I saw two hot air balloons under the command of Yang Keshi, rising into the air at the same time, but this time it was different from before, this time it was originally to deter Yelu Aguzhe, so a rope was tied under the willow frame to prevent the chariot from drifting away with the wind. The 1,000-meter Wansheng Army cavalry mounted their horses at the same time, the iron spear pillar was on the ground next to the horse, the cold light of the armor flickered, and the murderous aura of the battle in the battle array also diffused.
ββSoon I saw a group of soldiers coming from the south, with only a hundred cavalry and a thousand infantry. The first man rode a black horse, dressed in a gray robe, and had no weapon in his hand.
ββComing to the front, I saw a pair of divine cars floating in the air on both sides of the road, these Xi soldiers were trembling, the terrible scene of this divine beast burning two grain depots in a row is still vivid, it turns out that there is another divine beast in the Wansheng army.
ββYelu Aguzhe dismounted before he got under the hot air balloon, walked to Zhou Nan, who was standing at the gate of the city, and just walked under the hot air balloon, only to see colorful flowers floating from the top of the hot air balloon, colorful and beautiful.
ββHowever, Yelu Aguzhe and the soldiers behind him were startled, and were about to dodge, but they saw that they were all paper flowers tied with colored paper. Yang Keshi walked over to Yelu Aguzhe with a smile, and said loudly, "General Yelu, don't panic, these are paper flowers specially tied by his subordinates to welcome the general." In the cold winter, I can't find the real flowers, and I hope that the general will atone for his sins. β
ββYelu Aguzhe knew that this was the etiquette for Wanshengjun to greet him, so he just smiled bitterly and said, "Aguzhe is already a bird with a frightened bow, which makes the general laugh." β
ββThe two of them walked towards Zhou Nan side by side, and under Yang Keshi's arrangement, Zhou Nan was already standing on the wooden platform. Yang Keshi gestured to Yelu Aguzhe and said, "This is the Great Liao Horse, who is in charge of Yanjing with the princess of Shu, and is also the commander of our Wansheng Army, General Zhou. β
ββYelu Aguzhe immediately stepped forward and saluted Zhou Nan respectfully, "Mei only has Yelu Aguzhe participating in the horses, and the soldiers of Weimo are vainly trying to resist the army, Aguzhe is guilty." β
ββZhou Nan said with a smile, "Mei is only coerced by Xiao Gan, General Agu Zhe is well aware of righteousness, and being able to break away from Xiao Gan is a good deed." Besides, Wan Shengjun and Mei Zhibu have no suspicions, what is General Aguzhe's crime? Today, he prepared 500 stones of grain and grass for the general, which can be regarded as making amends for burning the general's grain and grass. β
ββBefore Agu Zhe came, he thought about what he would suffer, but he didn't expect the dignified commander of the Wansheng Army and the concubine to be so close to his subordinate defeated, and he couldn't help but be greatly moved, and said excitedly to Zhou Nan, "Don Ma, Agu Zhe can be so valued by the donkey, it is the luck of my Mei Division, and I also let my two cronies prepare before I came, and once I am detained, let them lead the troops away." Speaking of this, Aguzhe took three steps back, drew a short blade from his waist, looked around, and said loudly, "I, Yelu Aguzhe, swear to the heavens that I am willing to follow the horse in this life, and if there is any disobedience, the gods will be angry!" After saying that, he slashed his forehead with a short blade, and blood immediately flowed down his forehead.
ββThis is probably the step of the Xi people's oath, and Zhou Nan hurriedly asked people to bring knife medicine and let Agu Zhe apply it. Zhou Nan asked Agu Zhe to speak, and he wanted to find a quick way to solve Xiao Gan from Agu Zhe. Like Song Chungui, please collect x Song Chungui.
