Chapter 353: Honorary Military Division
"I am here to thank the Heavenly Khan for his help to thousands of soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army, and I also hope that the friendship between our Southern Chu and Mongolia will last forever. The three countries join forces to break the Khitan, and great things can be done! Lu Xiaoyu said excitedly.
"Hahaha, Ben Khan is so happy today! Not only will we Mongolia and Western Xia form an alliance, but we will also find someone who can get in touch with my benefactor, Brother Zheng, and then I will be able to sit with him in our Mongolian yurt and drink mare's milk wine and talk about life. ”
At this time, the princess also entered, and as soon as she entered, she attracted everyone's attention. Sure enough, Princess Siqin, one of the beauties of the four countries, was simply captivating the country and the city, and the flowers were dim in an instant.
She was wearing a pink embroidered Luo shirt and a pearl white lake crepe skirt, and on her melon-seed-shaped white and jade-like face, a pair of pear vortices were slightly flushed between her cheeks, lightly smeared with rouge, so that her cheeks were polished like a newly opened Qiong flower, white and red. The long black eyebrows, not like a painting, a pair of eyes that are looking forward to life, those seductive eyes, black and white, rippling with intoxicating charm. The wide pearl-white ribbon was curled, and the long black flowing hair exuded a fairy-like temperament. Long hair and hanging waist, forehead and ear temples with a white and pink intarsia hanging bead hair chain, occasionally one or two disobedient beads hanging down, even added a real and illusory beauty, with a milky white jade bracelet at the wrist, the warm mutton fat white jade exudes an unspoken brilliance, and a light dress complements each other, with a thin silver necklace around the neck, faintly purple luster.
"Great Khan, the banquet of the alliance is ready, and please take your seat at the throne." The words of the minister who arranged the banquet made everyone take away their eyes, and the Mongolian evening at this time was different from the quiet and beautiful of the past, but became extremely lively.
This banquet was different from the previous banquet hall in the Wan'an Palace, but was arranged on the vast prairie, although it may not be magnificent, but this atmosphere can be immersed in such a lively atmosphere no matter who is immersed in it. The leaders of the various tribes of the steppe were summoned to the imperial court by the Heavenly Khan to attend the banquet of the alliance between the Mongols and Western Xia today. Although some people still hold opposing opinions, believing that the alliance with Western Xia is a wrong decision, it is rare to see such a lively scene and a happy scene of everyone, and they can't oppose it.
Tian Khan sat on the throne, first picked up the wine glass in his hand and said loudly: "All the Mongolian people and the envoys from Western Xia, we can gather together today, and it is also the fate of the steppe god to give us. Today, I am here to announce that Mongolia has officially joined the Western Xia for a hundred years, and the friendship will last forever and will never be violated. ”
"Good!" There was a cheer below, and someone had already brought the official treaty of alliance and the great seal of the Mongol Heavenly Khan. The letter of alliance details the solidarity between the Mongols and Western Xia in this alliance, and there were no more border disputes. The Mongols were not as resistant to the Central Plains and Tangut culture as they were directly, but opened several trade fairs in disputed lands between the two countries where the people of the two countries could trade. And as long as either country is in danger, the allies are obliged to help the suffering country and not take any compensation, just like the Khitan, the common rival of the two countries, the next step is to challenge the Khitan. Except for normal trade and commerce, there was no need to establish other tributes and worship, and the two countries were completely equal.
Tian Khan had already signed his name on the treaty and stamped it with a big seal, and the representative of the Western Xia mission on the other side was naturally Lu Xiaoyu. The terms of these treaties were now completely unreasonable for Western Xia to refuse, and the temptation was too great. It can not only maintain the border security of Western Xia, but also join hands with Mongolia to clear the biggest threat, the Khitan, which kills two birds with one stone.
There were many people who were not convinced by Lu Xiaoyu like Xifeng Chengjie, and at this time they could only tacitly agree that Lu Xiaoyu signed this treaty, so Lu Xiaoyu signed the treaty on behalf of Wu Linren as the head of the Western Xia mission, and stamped it with the seal of the envoy symbolizing the supreme power of the Western Xia.
There was another deafening round of applause, and the subjects of both countries embraced each other and toasted to celebrate the historic occasion.
Tian Khan happily grabbed Lu Xiaoyu's hand and announced, "In addition to the alliance with our friendly neighbor Xixia today, I have one more thing I want to announce. That is the new head of the Western Xia mission next to me, he has helped us Mongolia many times, like the timely rescue of the princess when she was killed, and later the tactical guidance of our Mongolian army still has to understand our Mongolian culture very much, if he didn't say that he is a native of Southern Chu, I really have to wonder if he is our Mongolian! Ben Khan admired such a talent, but unfortunately I talked to him many times about wanting him to be the Khan of our Mongolian land, but he politely refused. ”
"Is it not for us to discuss this matter of the Great Khan, after all, no matter how much the envoy Lu is, he is not from our Mongolian country, so rashly letting him do the land khan will be questioned by the subjects, and your reputation is not good for the Great Khan, I think the envoy Lu will understand you, right?" Heavenly Khan's most powerful subordinate, Agoura, said worriedly.
Lu Xiaoyu shook his head with a smile, indicating that he was not interested in the position of the local khan, and he did not want to destroy the great unity of the Mongolian people.
Tian Khan snorted, "I knew you would say that, Xiaobao has already resolutely opposed my opinion." I know that he took into account the feelings of your Mongol subjects, and you will not be convinced. Since he doesn't want to be difficult for everyone to agree, then I will retreat today and officially appoint Lu Xiaoyu as our Mongolian honorary military to help us advise and be treated like a Great Khan. Although I know that everyone is against not giving you any real power, I can tell you with certainty here that as long as I am within my ability, I will be able to fulfill your three wishes. Here I just want to say that Mongolia's doors are always open to you, and you are always welcome to return. ”
Tian Khan's words were so much that Lu Xiaoyu was moved to tears, he had not received such a high courtesy when he came to this era, and he was still a generation of Tianjiao's grace to himself, how much trust does it take to say such a thing.
Lu Xiaoyu bowed deeply to the Heavenly Khan, "The Great Khan's grace Xiaobao dare not accept it, I will always support Mongolia and support the Great Khan, whenever I need to come to my place, I will appear to help Mongolia solve difficulties." The big husband is out of his word, and the horse is hard to chase! I swear to the god of the steppe! ”
