Chapter 266: The Covenant That Was Made
The second prince stared at the invisible battlefield behind him in shock, but when he listened attentively, he could no longer hear the sound of tearing and gunfire, the more he thought about it, the more intense he became, and after a while, he was full of anger in his heart and drew his treasure knife and cut off the spies who came to report the news, and the head of the spies flew out a foot away.
"Ahh The second prince yelled and then stared at Yang Xiuqing: "You have won, but you have to give me an explanation." ”
As soon as Yang Xiuqing heard that he had won, his heart was relieved, but he turned his head to look at the 20,000 elite horsemen behind him, and the Hu cavalry opposite, he knew that if he tried his best at this time, he might be able to beat the second prince into a poor egg in one fell swoop, but the rational Yang Xiuqing knew that talking at this time was the best result.
"Let's talk, this war is something we haven't communicated well." Yang Xiuqing took a deep breath and said calmly.
The second prince stared at Yang Xiuqing and the eldest prince beside him amusedly, and as soon as the eldest prince noticed the second prince's eyes, he immediately reacted.
"Talk, talk about what, now is a good time to eliminate the other party." The eldest prince roared.
As soon as the eldest prince's words came out, everyone looked at the eldest prince as if they were looking at a fool, even Dalawi beside him was also looking at the eldest prince, but Yang Xiuqing thought of his huge casualties at this time, and he didn't want to explain too much to the eldest prince at all.
"This is the peace treaty that I talked about with the second prince, and my alliance with the eldest prince has been reached, the eldest prince, you should avoid it first, anyway, I said that I would support you to ascend to the throne, and I will definitely support you to ascend to the throne."
The second prince stared at Yang Xiuqing, he had already touched the treasure knife in his hand, and at this time he was already thinking about whether to fight to the death with Yang Xiuqing, but Yang Xiuqing's next sentence made him dispel the intention of continuing to fight.
"Of course, as long as the second prince is not my enemy, my soldiers will no longer fight against the second prince, but only sell weapons and lend money to the eldest prince." When he said this, Yang Xiuqing looked at the second prince with a gloomy face: "If the second prince can afford the money, our weapons can also be sold to the second prince, but the money cannot be borrowed." ”
When the eldest prince heard that Yang Xiuqing was like a two-faced person, his face was anxious: "This, this, we have a covenant." ”
"Alas, of course I know that we have an alliance, but I also strictly enforce the covenant, but our Youyun is a commercial city, a peaceful city, and a friendly city, as long as the second prince is not an enemy of us, then Youyun will not refuse them, okay, eldest prince, you should avoid it first." When he said this, he gave a few glances to the guards, and those soldiers understood what Yang Xiuqing meant.
The eldest prince was asked to walk away, and the second prince smiled at Yang Xiuqing, but at this moment, another spy came over, and this time the spy whispered in the second prince's ear with a pale face: "There are thousands of infantry over there coming in ox carts." ”
The second prince's face stiffened, but at this time, Yang Xiuqing got the news, this time it was the whole news, including casualties and other news, because those soldiers didn't want to survive at all, so they were injured, so they died with Hu Qi, so there were only 3,000 people left.
Yang Xiuqing looked at the second prince with moist eyes, "At this time, you also know who we are in this battle, you and I can't fight anymore, so stop it." ”
"Tell me what you want to talk about." As soon as the second prince heard Yang Xiuqing say that he couldn't fight, his face was relieved.
"Let's make a covenant." Yang Xiuqing's face was as usual.
"Okay, but as you said before, weapons and other things can be sold." The second prince had already started the idea of Yang Xiuqing's firearms at this time.
Yang Xiuqing looked at the second prince slightly, and after a while, when he thought of the bloody battle of the soldiers, his heart seemed to be dripping with blood, but this blood did have to be dropped, as long as he wanted to get the maximum benefit, it could only be like this.
"Yes, but you have to ensure the distance between the clouds, the safety and business environment of our friendly merchants, and strictly respect our taxes and other interests." Yang Xiuqing stared at the second prince like a profiteer.
"Okay." At this time, the second prince has no choice, even if there is a steady stream of cavalry behind him, but it is a tribal soldier, not a relative soldier in his hand at all, if there is no leader of strength, it will not be able to serve the public, so what the second prince wants most at this time is to let Yang Xiuqing stop hurting his business, and no matter how important it is, the second prince is really afraid.
A moment later, on a sheepskin, Yang Xiuqing and the second prince reached another covenant, this covenant was the same except that there was no eldest prince to help him ascend to the throne, but when the two sides signed it, Yang Xiuqing called the second prince to stop.
"Second prince and so on, you can't stop those Hu people who turned out to be Youyun, no matter who it is, you can't stop him from coming to Youyun to trade for any reason, even if you win the eldest prince, and the eldest prince is willing to come to Youyun to settle down, you can't stop it." Yang Xiuqing emphasized.
"Okay, I promise." The second prince agreed without thinking about it.
Yang Xiuqing looked at Ye Youji, who was already approaching, and he smiled at the second prince: "According to the covenant, the territory of this Tuwu King belongs to me, the second prince, you should withdraw from the army, how to say, those soldiers under my command were red-eyed just now, we should be careful for the sake of Youyi." ”
As soon as Yang Xiuqing's words came out, the second prince immediately understood what Yang Xiuqing meant, this is Ming Yu told him that this is his territory, and he wants him to leave, but the second prince didn't say anything, even if he still has many horses left here, but at this time he didn't have the heart to get those horses back, even if it was the corpse of the party, he didn't say anything.
"There will be a date later."
The second prince left four words and turned his head and left, at this time he took the last 20,000 single double riders and walked away, Yang Xiuqing and Ye Youji glanced at each other, and they both laughed, but Ye Youji's eyes shed a trace of sad tears, this war is even more uncomfortable than his defeat, many of his familiar faces will never be seen again, especially when he thinks of those soldiers who ignited their own gunpowder and died with the Hu people, Ye Youji's heart was sad.
"Yang boy, we paid such a big price to get such a covenant." Ye Youji stared at Yang Xiuqing unconvinced, and at this time, Ye Youji couldn't understand why Yang Xiuqing signed such an alliance with the second prince.
In Ye Youji's heart, everyone has shed blood, so can you still talk about it, at least in Ye Youji's heart, it is impossible, so he stared at Yang Xiuqing, he wanted Yang Xiuqing to give him an explanation.
Yang Xiuqing looked around, as soon as those soldiers saw Yang Xiuqing's appearance, they immediately dispersed in all directions, and scattered those soldiers, Yang Xiuqing sighed at this time: "Brother Ye, our main purpose is the entire Hu clan and not just one second prince or eldest prince, now that their main cavalry has been eliminated, now they have seen the benefits of the fire inspection, as long as we don't reject them, then they will definitely be equipped with muskets, then the disturbance of their Hu people will not exist, what do you say." ”
"That's it, then what's the trouble, if we lead a large army to attack the royal court directly." Ye Youji was not convinced.
"Alas, by then our casualties will be even more, believe me, the population of the Hu people will become smaller at that time, and we will become stronger and stronger, we can level the Hu people in one battle, and then implement the policy of assimilation, and it will not matter what the grassland." Yang Xiuqing was full of confidence.
After Ye Youji hugged his face and screamed sadly, he raised his head and looked at Yang Xiuqing, at this time he already knew what Yang Xiuqing meant, in the end, he still had to include the Hu people in the Wu Dynasty, although the Hu people only had their names left in the end, and there was no royal court anymore, but when he thought of the loss of 100,000 yuan, it was a strong soldier that he had trained with all his heart, especially when he saw them dying in front of him with a smile, he could listen to Yang Xiuqing's explanation with peace of mind.
Yang Xiuqing looked at Ye Youji like this, how comfortable he was, but thinking of the final solution of the Shi Hu clan, he could only do this, because he couldn't keep it here for the rest of his life, plus Wen Zheng had already given him a hint, he would have to leave after four or five years at most, but at this time, it was impossible to keep it slowly.
"Okay, bury the bones by the river, we will remember them, now pack up those heroes and go home." Yang Xiuqing looked at the dark sky, and he sighed again and again.
Ye Youji wiped his tears and stood up: "I'm just sand in my eyes, and I don't think those soldiers need to clean up." ”
Ye Youji cried again when he said this, because he thought of those soldiers who were broken bones, Ye Youji, a big man, cried so sadly, Yang Xiuqing couldn't imagine that Ye Youji, a veteran of the battlefield, would be like this, but crying and crying, Yang Xiuqing also wanted to cry.
After a long time, Ye Youji suddenly felt physically and mentally tired, and he thought of the remaining 3,000 soldiers who had been fighting all day, and he sighed and looked away to put aside the complicated thoughts in his mind.
"Now it's better to camp and rest the soldiers, they've been fighting all day."
Ye Youji's words made Yang Xiuqing realize that those soldiers were the most important, thinking of this time, Yang Xiuqing wiped his face: "Yang Er, next you have to publicize to those soldiers and Youyun that we have a clear purpose and great victory in this battle, especially the soldiers recruited in the future, we must infuse these spirits into it." ”
"Yes, young master, but how is this post-war covenant promoted?" Yang Er looked at Yang Xiuqing with an embarrassed expression.
Although Yang Er has already obtained the true transmission of Yang Xiuqing's ideological work, how can this war and alliance be promoted, Yang Xiuqing thought of it in a blink of an eye.
"You can publicize that we are for the peace of Youyun and the development of Youyun, and most importantly, this is a bloody battle that must be fought in the final pacification of the Hu people, this battle shows the spirit of our army's fierce generals, and also allows our brave military strength to penetrate into the body and mind of the Hu people, and the Hu people will never dare to infringe on our interests again."
Ye Youji stared at Yang Xiuqing with wide eyes, at this time Ye Youji had already understood Yang Xiuqing's thoughts, and he also thought that after this bloody battle, in the future, the soldiers recruited would definitely be the strongest army in the world if they followed the veterans left over from the bloody battle.
"Boy, you're still thinking ahead, but those soldiers don't want to lose them."
