Chapter 403: Shuofang City, Sword Shadow and Blood (2)
"Two days ago, the three clans of the Wuhuan King sent envoys over, and they have been in the city for the past few days." On the way, Le Yi and Qin Cheng talked about what happened in Shuofang City recently, "These people are obviously saying that they came to congratulate Shuofang City on the completion of it, but in my opinion, they are actually just coming to probe my tone and see if my Han has the intention of using troops against Chahadi." ”
Qin Cheng smiled when he heard this: "Put yourself in your shoes, with the tiger on your side, it is indeed not easy for the Wuhuan three clans to sleep peacefully, and it is understandable for them to come over to take a look at the situation." ”
"That's what I thought, so I didn't pay much attention to them for the past two days." Le Yi said, "It's all Thorn Shi entertaining." ”
Qin Cheng thought for a moment, and then said, "It's better to reassure them, if these people keep pestering, it will be a trouble." Although the construction of Shuofang City is mainly to deal with the Xiongnu, after the desert is settled in the future, the scope of deterrence is the entire Monan, including Chahadi. ”
"Don't worry, I won't let this side make a mess at a critical time!" Le Yi is very confident.
"That's fine."
"General Le is now leading the way, and he is really getting more and more imposing." Liu Mu quipped on the side, "I see that you not only manage the barracks in an orderly manner, but also manage political affairs and the overall situation very well, which makes me admire!" ”
"That's all because Vice General Liu taught him well back then." Le Yi said with a smile.
"Hehe, I've learned to be poor!"
"Haha......"
The three of them went from the Shanggu Tun Army to the Hussar Army together, and then to Chang'an together, they were originally very emotional, but now that they meet together, they naturally have talk and laughter.
Qin Cheng inadvertently glanced at Huo Quzhi, but saw that Huo Quzhi's face was just indifferent, and he didn't have the heat that an ordinary young man should have after hearing about such an achievement.
In the end, it is a good talent from heaven, maybe in Huo Qu's heart, these are just backhand things, and there is really nothing to admire. Qin Cheng smiled in his heart.
When they arrived at the Shuofang City County Shoufu, the group dismounted and walked into the mansion. Yi Xue'er came out early when she got the news, and when she saw Qin Cheng and the others, she smiled lightly, "The general hasn't been to Shuofang City for many years, what kind of wind is blowing today?" ”
Qin Cheng ignored Yi Xue'er's ridicule, and said seriously: "It's just two years, what many years." I see that the history of the thorn is now full of red light, and I know that the history of the thorn has been very comfortable in the past two years! ”
"Come less." Yi Xue'er glanced at Qin Cheng with disgust, then lowered her voice and said, "The envoy of the Wuhuan clan heard that you are here today, and the dead-faced one is coming to greet you, and you are waiting inside at this time!" ”
As he spoke, he saw Liu Mu in a strong suit, smiled, and couldn't help but lean over to Liu Mu, "Isn't this General Liu?" Are you finally willing to put on your daughter's outfit? As he spoke, he glanced at Qin Cheng, his face was quite unkind, "Could it be that you have become a relative, right?" Qin Cheng, you're really not kind, I don't even know about this! ”
"After the princess made a history of thorns, she really has a lot of sharp teeth!" Liu Mupi smiled and glanced at Qin Cheng, "However, I won't have anything to do with this person!" ”
"What's the matter, my sister thinks the general doesn't understand Fengyue?" Icher grinned.
"Ixher!" Qin Cheng suffered from Yi Xue'er and Liu Mu alone, and felt very depressed, "Is it that the wind in Shuofang City is too fierce, how do I feel that your guy is talking more and more now?" ”
"Have you forgotten that the general is a prairie man, and I am used to being blown by the north wind! What's the matter, I can't get used to seeing people now? Yi Xue'er snorted, and then pulled Liu Mu inside, "Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for a long time, this time it's just time to talk, so don't pay attention to these stinky men." Sister, you really don't know, I am almost suffocated to death when I stay in Shuofang City, where there are few women all day......"
With that, Yi Xue'er and Liu Mu entered the house, leaving Qin Cheng and Le Yi looking at each other.
"What does this person mean, there are no women in Shuofang City, and she is about to suffocate to death?" Qin Cheng looked at Le Yi, "You tell me, what has happened in the past two years?" Shuofang City is really so short of women? ”
"......" Le Yi was silent for a while, and finally had to say: "I don't know her well......"
"Two generals, aren't you hungry?" Huo Quzhi asked out loud, "I'm hungry in Xia, you guys talk slowly, and I'm going to eat in Xia!" ”
As he spoke, he ran into the house with a bit of excitement.
"......" Qin Cheng and Le Yi.
.................................
When Qin Cheng and Le Yi walked into the house, they were surrounded by some people dressed as grassland people, and those people saluted one after another: "I've seen General Sima, I've seen General Le." ”
Some people say Chinese, some people say grassland dialect, and it looks very confusing when mixed together.
"This person's name is Wu Chi Na Clam, and he is the leader of the Wuhuan Three Clans Mission this time." Le Yi introduced Qin Cheng to a middle-aged man with a slightly elegant face.
"Uchina clams?" Qin Cheng smiled, "Good name." ”
"Thank you, General, for your praise!" Uchina Clam is polite and polite, but he can speak Chinese. Thinking about it, since the Wuhuan clan asked these people to inquire about the situation, it was impossible to send a person who didn't know Chinese to be the leader.
After saying almost anything, Qin Cheng and Le Yi sat down one after another.
"It's a great honor for me to see the general when I first came to the Han Dynasty, please allow me to pay tribute to the general!" As soon as he sat down, Wu Chena clam raised the wine bottle and persuaded Qin Cheng to drink.
"Please!" Qin Cheng was happy to appreciate it, drank this cup, and when he put down the wine bottle, he inadvertently glanced at the black red clam, but suddenly his pupils shrank.
It's not that there is something wrong with the clam, it's that there is a short man next to the clam, and the eyes that look at him are full of viciousness and hostility, and even, murderous!
Qin Cheng was a human being in two lives, and he didn't know how many people he had killed, and he didn't know that he had been slashed by many people, and his feelings of danger, especially hostility and murderous spirit, could not be compared with ordinary people. Although Fang Cai only inadvertently swept the person's eyes, Qin Cheng's feeling was very strong.
Putting down the wine bottle, Qin Cheng remained silent, pretending not to find anything, and still talking and laughing with everyone.
This banquet, because of the frequent persuasion of the envoys of the Wuhuan three tribes, was also very lively, and when the banquet dispersed, many people had already staggered and began to be a little unsteady.
When Qin Cheng stood up, he didn't know if he was really drunk or intentional, and his body was also staggering, and he almost couldn't stand steadily.
"General, are you alright?" Huo Quzhi hurriedly came over to support Qin Cheng, and throughout the banquet, he was the only one who didn't drink a drop of wine, that is, Yi Xue'er and Liu Mu were persuaded by the people of the Wuhuan three clans to drink. Huo Quzhi is the only one, no matter what others say, he just buries his head in eating, occasionally raises his head, but only gives two words to those who persuade him to drink: "Don't drink." ”
He either said that he couldn't drink, or that he didn't, and there was no room for accommodation.
"It's fine." Qin Cheng gave Huo Qubing a look, and then said a word in his ear while his body was shaking.
Huo Quzhi nodded quietly.
"Da Lang, you came at the right time today, I just have something good to show you here, let's go now?" When he went out, Le Yi winked at Qin Cheng and said.
"What's good?" Qin Cheng asked curiously, "Is it still the right time?" ”
"Let's see." Le Yi showed a bit of smugness and sarcasm on his face, but he didn't say it directly.
"Okay, then I'll take a look." Qin Cheng nodded, and turned back to Qin Qingzhi: "Qingzhi, arrange the guard." ”
"No!" Qin Qingzhi responded, looked up and saw Qin Cheng's fingers move, with the tacit understanding he had cultivated with Qin Cheng when he had served as Qin Cheng's pro-soldier team for many years before, he naturally suddenly understood and quickly retreated.
Qin Cheng and Le Yi arrived at the backyard of the county guard's mansion and walked a distance of 100 zhang before arriving at a separate courtyard.
"Wait." Le Yi said to Qin Cheng, then stepped aside and whistled loudly into the night sky!
After two whistles, an extremely sharp chirp suddenly came from the night sky, piercing the sky, breathtaking, like a wild ghost wailing, and like a long knife out of its sheath.
After a while, a black shadow shot out of the night sky, and its speed was unbelievably fast.
Goshawk!
It's a goshawk.
Le Yi raised his arm, and the goshawk landed on Le Yi's arm, looking very obedient, but also wild.
Le Yi raised his arm and walked towards Qin Cheng, and said with a smile: "This bird is called the Spear Falcon, and the people here call it Black Claw, which feeds on various birds such as wild ducks, gulls, ptarmigans, and grouse, and can fly nearly thousands of miles in a day, which is a rare artifact!" ”
Qin Cheng took a closer look and saw that this bird was about three feet long, with a majestic body, gray feathers, black claws, and especially a pair of eyes, which was particularly intimidating.
"It's a good thing!" Qin Cheng was amazed, "This is your own domestication?" ”
"Of course." Le Yi said with some pride, reaching out and stroking the feathers of the falcon, "But it took me a lot of energy, and I haven't closed my eyes for a few days!" ”
"I have seen Hai Dongqing in my previous life, but I never thought that there would be such a divine object in this era, but there are more than Hai Dongqing Shenjun." Qin Cheng looked at the falcon and said, "As the pet of our soldiers, it is the best choice. ”
"Past life?" Le Yi looked at Qin Cheng suspiciously, but after hearing Qin Cheng's words, Le Yi didn't have the heart to dwell on this question, but said, "I don't domesticate this thing for pets!" ”
"What's that?" Qin Cheng said curiously.
"Deliver military information!" When Le Yi said this, his expression suddenly became excited, "I have already told you just now, this bird can travel thousands of miles a day, over mountains and mountains like walking on flat ground, if it is used to transmit military information, no matter how good a horse or a good knight can not catch up with him!" ”
