Chapter 428: Loulan Jiashi, Hun Iron Horseman
Thinking of this, Zhao Xin's complexion cooled down, and he looked at King Loulan with straight eyes, and no longer intended to restrain his momentum. Fang Cai's polite mask was taken off and replaced by a domineering attitude, and with just a small gesture, Zhao Xin's unique high-mindedness of the Huns towards the people of the Western Regions was revealed.
"King Loulan, the Great Huns are sincerely allied with Loulan, and are willing to ignore the past suspicions and make peace from now on. This time it was the envoy who entered the city, not the Hun army, and the envoy brought national letters and gifts this time, rather than tactics and swords and guns, which has already illustrated this. But the envoy Guanloulan court, it seems that he does not understand my love for the Great Huns, but on the contrary, he is willing to be deceived by the Han envoy, which really makes the envoy sad! When Zhao Xin said these words, he no longer had a "minister" posture, on the contrary, it was like a strong man giving something to the weak, and that arrogant posture made people uncomfortable.
Zhao Xin ignored the-like faces of King Loulan and the others, and said more and more toughly: "King Loulan, this envoy came to discuss state affairs with you today, if you are so perfunctory and ignore the sincerity of the Great Huns, it will chill the hearts of the Great Huns!" Can the king of Loulan know that this time Da Dan Yu sent the envoy instead of sending the army, but how much pressure did he withstand from the army? If the envoy returns in vain, the king of Loulan can know that the next person who will come to Loulan will no longer be an envoy, but a Xiongnu...... 100,000 Iron Riders?! ”
"By then, it's too late!"
After saying these words, Zhao Xin was calm, arrogant, arrogant, arrogant like a victorious fighting rooster, his eyes looked around the Loulan officials in the court, and finally landed on the twitching face of King Loulan.
Before Qin Cheng came, the Xiongnu envoys behaved like this in the court. A strong country naturally has the demeanor of a strong country, and the most prominent manifestation is to feel good about yourself.
King Loulan chose to be silent for a while, and the muscles in the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, as if he wanted to say something but didn't say it.
Zhao Xin became more and more proud, he moved his eyes to Qin Cheng's face, and the color of the demonstration was very strong.
Qin Cheng smiled helplessly. The reason why Zhao Xin dared to be so arrogant was that the Xiongnu were close to Loulan, and the Xiongnu army could arrive in a short time, while the Han army was beyond the reach of the whip.
"Is this threatening Loulan? If my Loulan does not ally with the Xiongnu, the Xiongnu will send troops to attack Loulan? The hard-line officials who had spoken earlier now stepped up again.
"Attack Loulan?" Zhao Xin sneered, looking at this official's eyes as if he was looking at an idiot, and said with a more arrogant attitude than him: "100,000 iron horses into Loulan are not just as simple as attacking!" ”
"You ......" The official was so angry that he was about to scold.
"Is your envoy asking Loulan for war?" A loud voice suddenly appeared above the court, the voice was surprisingly loud, with the anger and fighting intent of wanting to fight with the sword.
Zhao Xin turned his head to look and saw a young man in official uniform, staring at him with a gloomy face.
It is the new Loulan Keqing, Xike Tea Man.
"......" Zhao Xin was stunned, and then said proudly: "So what?" ”
"Come on, pull out the rebellious ministers of this enemy country and behead them!" Suddenly, the Sico teaman snorted violently.
.....................................................
Xike Teaman's words made Zhao Xin almost rush over and kick over this kid who didn't know the height of the sky.
But the next scene made Zhao Xin stunned on the spot.
Several Loulan court armorers swarmed into the main hall and pounced on him.
Zhao Xin knew that the previous Xiongnu envoys were so arrogant and wanton in the Loulan court, and the Loulan people didn't dare to do anything to them, so he had no scruples.
But Zhao Xin forgot that the Xiongnu envoys dared to put on this face in this court before, provided that Loulan did not suffer any actual losses under the coercion of the Xiongnu, let alone the death of General Loulan and many officials.
All the countries in the Western Regions were slaves, and the officials of the court were all children of nobles. The Huns had killed so many officials, especially General Loulan, how could the Manchu ministers tolerate him being arrogant again?
Moreover, the current Loulan is not without a way out.
Qin Cheng and the others were still waiting to form an alliance with them.
The husband was angry, and the blood was splashed five steps, and the rabbit was in a hurry and bitten, isn't the noble minister of Loulan a noble minister?
Even without the order of the king of Loulan, the armor soldiers immediately rushed in at the signal of the noble officials after hearing the violent snort of the Xike teaman.
..........................................
Not only Zhao Xin, but also the Huns who followed Zhao Xin were all taken down.
Zhao Xin was pressed in the center of the main hall by Loulan Jiashi.
"King Loulan, do you dare to treat this envoy like this, aren't you afraid that the Huns will send troops to destroy your country?" Zhao Xin's hands were pressed behind his back, and he was extremely angry.
Qin Cheng and Dou Fei looked at each other, and they both saw the banter in each other's eyes.
When he looked at Yi Xue'er, Qin Cheng found that Yi Xue'er's pupils were a little dilated, and he couldn't see any luster. This made Qin Cheng feel a little strange.
King Loulan didn't speak, just silently stared at the suppressed Zhao Xin.
It's like watching a play on a stage.
"King, this person rushed into the palace, was rude to the king, and insulted Loulan with contemptuous words, he should be beheaded!"
There is a minister's advice.
King Loulan was still silent, as if he had settled down, just staring at Zhao Xin.
There is no content in the eyes.
"......" Zhao Xin was a little hairy by King Loulan, and it was useless to resist, so he simply stopped resisting, but the worry in his heart was churning like a monstrous wave.
He wasn't most worried about himself.
The hall suddenly fell silent, as if it had been rehearsed in advance, and the tacit understanding was very good.
The atmosphere was a little weird.
.........................................
"Report!"
"King, military report!"
A palace soldier entered the hall with a report, and the general reported it to the king of Loulan.
King Loulan was finally willing to move, he opened the military newspaper and took a look.
With just one glance, he casually put the general's newspaper aside, and said to the hundred officials in the main hall: "The military newspaper said that 30,000 Hun cavalry have arrived in Sangnan. ”
Loulan's voice was calm and unfazed.
The court immediately exploded, and the exclamations came one after another.
Sangnan, the closest Loulan border pass to the mud city. If the cavalry were to run at full speed, it would only take a dozen hours to reach the mud city.
The officials who were still babbling before closed their mouths at this time, and they didn't dare to say more, let alone start a war with the Huns.
The eyes of everyone looking at Zhao Xin at this time changed, no longer so aggressive, but very complicated.
It turned out that Zhao Xin dared to act recklessly in the main hall, but he relied on it.
30,000 elite horsemen, enough to break through the mud city.
"Haha......" Zhao Xin laughed, although he was still suppressed, his smile was more arrogant than before, "This envoy might as well tell King Loulan that these 30,000 iron horsemen are all elite soldiers of the royal court of the Great Hun Yizhi and Da Danyu, and they are all enough to be ten in terms of combat power!" ”
"If the envoy encounters an accident here, the envoy dares to guarantee that in just two days, these 30,000 iron horsemen will break through the walls of the mud city!"
"King Loulan, you have to think clearly, whether the envoy should be killed or not."
King Loulan's face was ordinary, no different, he waved his hand lightly, signaled the armor to retreat, and then asked Zhao Xin calmly, "Why did your envoy come to Loulan today?" ”
That demeanor was as if nothing had happened just now.
"Submit your credentials and form an alliance with Loulan!" Zhao Xin straightened his clothes, but he didn't have a good airway.
"Forming an alliance with Loulan...... "King Loulan said "um", and his posture was appropriate, "The alliance is a big matter, and this king still has to discuss with the hundred officials." So then, seven days, after seven days, the king will give you an answer. For the past seven days, the envoy has stayed in the city of mud, how is it? ”
.........................................
King Loulan was a person who was fine, but what he said easily this time was a thunderbolt.
Everyone was extremely surprised, and they all turned their inquiring eyes to King Loulan, not knowing what he was thinking.
King Loulan just set his eyes on Zhao Xin and waited for him to reply.
"Okay, seven days will be seven days." Zhao Xin was also a little stunned, and after thinking about it, although he felt that with Qin Cheng and others, seven days was longer, but if the matter could be decided, seven days would be acceptable, so he accepted it.
"Scattered." King Loulan stood up, and left the main hall under the congratulations of the hundred officials.
Qin Cheng and Dou Fei looked at each other, and muttered at the same time: "Seven days ......"
