Chapter 972: Cooperation
Seeing that Wumeng and the others were shot with arrows in front of the Ming army, Diesuda's face became more and more ugly, and he immediately glared angrily and shouted: "You are so bold! ”
With his shout, the warriors of the Duoyan tribe also quickly turned around, raised their swords and guns that were originally aimed at the Warat people, and surrounded Lu Jin, it seemed that as long as the patriarch of the family gave an order, they would rush over and kill all the other party.
It's really because they are holding their breath too much, first the Warat people killed their own people at night, and then some people dared to release cold arrows at the patriarch, and now even the people of the Ming Kingdom dare to kill people in front of them, which makes them feel that they are completely despised, how can this be endured?
Facing the crowd of Duoyan people who came up from the surrounding generals, Lu Zhen was not afraid at all, just looked at the gloomy face of Diesuda and said: "Patriarch Diesuda, I am just removing a disaster for you, if you don't appreciate it, why should you be angry with us?" ”
"I don't think you're just doing this to help us, are you?" Diesuda stared at him faintly, and his tone was quite unkind, there were some things he naturally knew, and the other party wanted to cut off the way for him to join forces with the Warats.
I didn't want Lu Zhen to admit it generously this time, but I saw him nod: "Yes, I am indeed planning for myself, after all, these Warat people originally came to us, if we hadn't changed the tent temporarily, I am afraid that it would be our people who died just now, so of course I have the intention of revenge at this time." ”
"Is that all?" Diesuda snorted, "You think you can hide from me with that little thought? Do you think that by killing them, you will force me to cooperate with you? ”
Seeing that the other party had made his words clear, Lu Zhen no longer pretended to be confused and went around in circles, and immediately laughed: "It seems that I can't have any reservations in front of you as the patriarch of Diesuda, yes, I do have plans to attack them." I also know that you have an army at your disposal, and you can make the Warats endure this. Presumably you acquiesced to their attack on us at night, right? ”
"Not only that, but because it was you Ming people who killed them, as long as I take you and hand it over to Yexian, I guess he will not pursue this matter again." Diesuda sneered again. As he said this, the people from the Duoyan Department stepped forward a little more.
Lu Jin couldn't help but clapped his hands twice, and said as if complimenting: "That's a good point, but do you think this is really the best choice?" Do you think that will first fully believe your words and admit it? Maybe now because of the situation, he won't pursue it, but what about after that? This is the residence of your Duoyan Division, and you say that you don't know all this, will he believe it? If it were me, I would have suspected that you Doyans were doing all this, or at least acquiescing in our attack on the Warats. Such a prejudice may not be good for the time being, but once you return to the grassland, will he not retaliate with his temperament? ”
These words were at the key point, which made Diesuda and others change color. They did have concerns about this, so they didn't dare to attack the Warat people who killed their own family before. And after Lu Zhen saw their expressions, he continued to increase the pressure and said: "Moreover, do you really think that my Ming Dynasty's national strength is weaker than that of the Warat people, and you would rather offend my Ming Dynasty than join forces with the Warat people?"
"Maybe I don't have much to do with the Warat people who fled into the depths of the grassland for the time being, but it's not too difficult to send troops to deal with your Duoyan Division. Of course, you can also choose to flee to the north with the Warats, but then you will lose your foundation and there will be no use for them in the first place. At that time, your people will become fat in the eyes of the other tribes of the steppe, and your situation will only become more unbearable. Do you really have the courage to do that? ”
These words are by no means false words and intimidation, but the result of a real and very likely occurrence, and Diesuda also knows the stakes in it, and his face changed again.
And Lu Jin's words were not finished, but he continued: "There is another point that you may not know. Now Lin Lie, the chief soldier in Jizhou City, is my original cronie brother, and I am like a brother, if I really do something wrong with you, I dare not guarantee that he will do something. Maybe he'll abandon the Warats and send an army to attack your Doyan. Do you think your strength can stand up to the defenders of the city? Or do you think that the Warats will send troops to help you out of the siege at that time? Not to mention that there is no alliance between you, even if you do form an alliance, I believe that at that time they will only choose to take advantage of the weakness to attack Jizhou, and they will also say that this is to save Zhao from Wei! ”
Every time Lu Zhen said a word, Diesuda's determination would loosen a little, and when he said a whole set of words, the murderous aura on the other party's body completely dissipated, and the whole person was stunned on the spot. In fact, not only him, but also the other people in the Duoyan Department no longer have the determination and courage that they did just now, and they dared to attack Lu Jin.
Lu Zhen continued to stare at each other, looking like he had eaten them.
He can be said to have figured out the character of these Duoyan people, don't look at them as still Mengren, but in fact, the comfortable life over the years has long worn away their innate wildness and fierce character, and they are no longer pure Mengren. They have too many worries, too many things to let go, so they can't let go, no matter how fierce they scream, it can't change the fact that they just want to fish in troubled waters.
Therefore, Lu Jin believes that as long as they are put enough pressure and let them know what the consequences of being enemies with their own family will be, these people will not dare to do it. Judging from the current results, his judgment is undoubtedly quite accurate.
Looking at the hesitation and entanglement on their faces, the corners of Lu Jin's mouth curled, and he said: "So now, it is almost impossible for you to cooperate with the Warat people, but you can still unite with my Daming." As long as you turn back at this time, then I can not blame the past, as long as you help me repel the Warats, the benefits I promised you before will not be denied. "The pressure has been sufficient, and there are some benefits to be gained below.
Sure enough, after hearing the last sentence, the leaders of the Duoyan tribe all showed heartfelt expressions on their faces: "What do you say?" "In fact, after seeing Umon and the others killed, they didn't have much hope for cooperating with the Warats.
Although Diesuda was not in a hurry to speak, his eyes when he looked at Lu Jin still showed his eagerness to know the answer. And Lu Zhen did not disappoint them, and immediately nodded and said: "Of course, I, Lu Jin, am a member of the imperial court, so how can there be any reason why I don't count my words?" But ......"
"But what?" Diesuda frowned and asked with some vigilance.
"But you have also seen the current situation, the Warat people have been watching from the sidelines, if the city really transports food, weapons, armor or something, I am afraid that it will immediately attract the Warat people to attack and loot, and at that time, maybe you and I will be empty. So what I mean is, you and I will join forces to repel the Walla, and then we'll give you everything when the battle is over. Lu Zhen quickly gave his own thoughts.
This made Diespeeda and the others a little unhappy, okay, what are you doing yet, you have already started to talk to us about the conditions. If you wait until you defeat the Warats, who knows if you will pay your debts?
Lu Jin also saw their suspicion and unhappiness, so he said, "It seems that you still can't believe in my sincerity?" In this case, I can only compromise a little, and when I return to the city, I will have the first batch of food delivered, and then the Warats will definitely send troops to rob it, and this is the best time for you and me to join forces to break the enemy. As long as we can defeat them, whether it's food, weapons and armor, we can all hand over smoothly, so what do you think? ”
"This ......" Diesuda had a hard time making up his mind for a moment, so he turned his head and exchanged glances with the leaders of the clan to see what they meant. And after a little muttering, almost all of these people nodded in agreement, and it seems that this is the best choice now.
Diesuda can only agree with this strategy: "Then do it according to your wishes, but you can't go back on your word, and you can't miss anything that should be given." Even if the Warats retreat later, they will have to give enough things. ”
"That's nature." Lu Zhen nodded very simply, and as he spoke, a rather playful smile appeared on his face.
Diesuda didn't feel anything at first, but then he thought of a point, isn't this method the strategy that the other party proposed to him early in the morning? At that time, I rejected this strategy in one bite, but I didn't expect that after a night and a circle, I still had to follow the plan he said. This made him feel very uncomfortable, and he felt that he was being played with.
But when things came to this point, Diespeeda also knew that this approach was already the most beneficial result for Duoyanbu, so he could only admit it. However, in the end, he still looked at Lu Zhen with a threatening look and said: "Lu Dudu, you Han people are the most dishonest, I hope you don't let us down again." Otherwise, although the strength of my Duoyan Department is insufficient, as long as I cooperate with the Warat people, there will be no peace in the land of Liaodong in the future! ”
"I naturally save this, and I won't leave such a big disaster for the court." Lu Zhen replied solemnly. It's just the deep meaning of his words, but the other party can't hear it: "By the way, I thought that if we want to completely defeat the Warats, we can still use some strategies......" As he spoke, he took a few steps forward, came to the other party, and expressed some of his thoughts, and after hesitating, Diesuda and others also recognized this strategy!
