In the eyes of the Persians and Qiang, Wengula's death was a little unexpected, but when I thought about it, I felt that it was expected. It's just that their plan to reap the benefits of the fisherman has failed, and they are not happy in the end.

The Persians were deeply hidden, but they were still found out by Sun Nian's people. Sun Nian was not happy to be fooled by them as a fool, so he invited a big businessman to the banquet. He didn't say anything, but called back to talk to the king of Persia, and their plan failed.

Just one sentence scared the thief-minded king of Persia out of his mind. There was no choice but to send someone to bring jewelry, pearls and some local food to Sun Nian. On the surface, the excuse is ready-made, saying that it is to thank Sun Nian for getting rid of the domineering Wengula the Great and saving Persia from the catastrophe of destroying the country. Those jewels and other things are all thanks. Communicate with Daqi and be friendly.

Sun Nian read the Persian letter and was very funny. However, this is exactly what he intended to let Shang Jia take the talk.

Now that he had received the promise from the Persian state, Sun Nianke had the heart to sit back and wait for the gift to be delivered. But more importantly, he could take a good look at how the grain and grass that Wengula left behind were different from his original grain and grass.

"It's wheat...... Is this wine? Sun Nian held up a small jar of something and sniffed it, "I don't know what it was made of." The smell is sweet and fruity, which is not the same as the mellow aroma of our wine. ”

Jiang Weimu took the wine with a face, and in the incredible eyes of Yuan Yu and Jin Ying, he took a quick sip, and no one else could stop it, "It's sour and sweet." It's not good to drink. ”

Sun Nian, who lowered his head, heard this and said, "It's both sour and sweet, it should be fruit wine." With that, he held up a round object the size of a dark yellow egg and asked, "What is this?" I don't think I've seen a merchant bring it back? ”

Jin Ying stood up and said, "It must be food." Why don't you ask the old businessmen who have been walking for many years? ”

"Good. Tell someone to find some. After a pause, he added, "Come on, put up these round 'eggs' and store them separately." ”

"Promise."

Yuan Yuan's eyebrows stretched, "Your Majesty, are you thinking, this unseen grain, but it's good?" ”

"Isn't it? With such a big size, how many grains is worth one piece? If you grow well, you can't eat more food a year? Then don't worry about starving. "Especially now that it's a big drought.

Yuan Yu nodded, very puzzled, "The country of Grace and the country of Persia are not far away. I think this thing, or Persia has it. Why not ask the Persians directly? ”

Sun Nian shook his head and smiled, "Didn't you forget, this time the Graces people suddenly attacked the Central Plains, but the Persians provoked it?" I dare not trust the Persians completely. ”

"So, let's talk about it ourselves, and listen to the Persians, and we can know the key to it."

"Yes. That's the reason. ”

After a while, Sun Nian looked at all the military rations brought by Wengula, and was very disappointed, "It seems that the nongsang is not valued over there, or the nongsang is not doing well." ”

"Why did Your Majesty say that?" Jiang Wei was puzzled. Looking at Jin Ying and Yuan Yuan, it can be seen that they have no doubts, and they want to hear what Sun Nian has to say.

"In our Central Plains, except for natural and man-made disasters, we can get food in any year. The wind and rain are not just fun. If the sun is good and there is timely rain, the crops will grow well. When the harvest is harvested, God does not change his face, so the harvest is naturally passable. However, if you look at the military rations, large pieces of dried meat occupy most of them, which shows that there are many livestock and meat eaters over there. More than growing food. At least that's the case in the country of Grace. ”

"Wow! Do you eat more meat than you eat? Is it too happy? A guard exclaimed on the side, provoking the blaming eyes of Sun Nian and the others. Scratching his head, he stepped aside.

Sun Nian thought for a while, "If they eat meat at once, I don't think they will feel good." Seeing that Yuanyu, Jiang Wei and the others didn't understand, they pointed to the pile of grain and said with a smile: "Do you see any condiments?" No. ”

"In other words, the pieces of meat they eat are cooked like this, and there is no other taste."

"Yes." At least it is less than the cooking method in the Central Plains.

Several people sighed at this state grain again, and then dispersed to busy their own business.

Sun Nian was consulting the historical records since the Western Han Dynasty. His fingers flipped and he saw the Western Regions Protectorate in his eyes, and his heart was like pressing a stone.

Previously, because he wanted to lead Wengula into the encirclement he designed, he abandoned the Western Regions Protectorate, resulting in countless casualties among the people where Wengula's army passed. When I am alone afterwards, when I think about it, I always feel guilty.

Thinking like this, he summoned Chunling, the chief of the guard, "You take a hundred cavalry, take the valuable things in the booty, go to the Western Regions Protectorate, and deliver the money and food to the homes of those who have lost their families." How to do it, you've been with me for so long, you should know? ”

Chun Ling raised his head, his eyes were clear, and said: "I have followed Your Majesty for many years, but I only know that Your Majesty loves the people like a son, and the last general should act according to Your Majesty's wishes, and dare not disobey it." ”

"Good. I believe in you. Don't fail me and the people. ”

"Promise!"

After testing, the military rations left by Emperor Wengula's army were not poisonous, and Sun Nian ordered Chunling to take half of it away, and the other half was divided into two, half of which was left in Xiliang and half brought back to Luoyang.

In the blink of an eye, it was time to harvest wheat on the Central Plains. Sun Nian didn't stay long, took Yuan Yu and Jiang Wei, and led the army back to Luoyang.

Originally, the journey was smooth, but after crossing the river and marching for dozens of miles, it encountered a rare heavy rain. It hasn't rained for a long time, but it is not a good thing to come suddenly today.

What is the Word? It turned out that on the banks of the Yellow River, trees were cut down so badly that the land fell apart severely. It didn't rain for a few months, but today, it washed away the originally loose land, but Sun Nian witnessed a magnificent scene of the collapse of the yellow mud slope. Unfortunately, he was on the edge of this collapsing yellow mud!

He has always been at the front, followed by Yuan Yuan and Jiang Wei. No, Jiang Wei and Yuan Yu Ke watched the yellow mud overwhelmingly bury Sun Nian!

"Your Majesty grabs the rope!" Jiang Wei exclaimed, flew off the horse, and threw the hemp rope he was carrying towards Sun Nian like a swallow flying.

Hearing this, the panicked Sun Nian desperately grabbed the hemp rope that looked like a swimming dragon, and at the same time, his lower body had fallen into the yellow mud.

"Stop!" At this time, Yuan Yuan also blocked the army that continued to advance behind him, and then jumped on the back of a horse like a Dapeng to Jiang Wei, who was lying on the ground, lay down, grabbed one of Jiang Wei's hands, and shouted: "Come on, come with a spear!" ”

The clever soldier came over with a spear, also lay down, and handed the handle of the spear to Sun Nian, "Your Majesty, take the handle of the gun!" At this time, the rest of the soldiers were squatting and pulling the legs of the soldiers with guns.

Sun Nian felt like he was about to suffocate. But when he looked up and saw Yuan Yu and the others, he was unwilling to give up. Besides, the deepest obsession and longing in his heart - that home, is still waiting to go back.

"Slowly, pull me closer."

Jiang Wei and the guard were pounding in their hearts, and their palms were hot and painful, but they didn't dare to let go.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Sun Nian was finally pulled in front of them. Seeing the opportunity, Yuan Yuan immediately reached out and grabbed Sun Nian's wrist, "Your Majesty, relax, I'm going to pull you up." ”

"Okay."

Slowly, Sun Nian was finally pulled out of the mud and sand.

At this time, Sun Nian realized that his right leg was in terrible pain, and he couldn't stand steadily. Looking down, the blood stained the yellow muddy water reddish-brown!

"Your Majesty, come up, let's find a place to shelter from the rain, and then bandage your wounds!"

In tongues, everyone's faces changed. Not because of Yuanyuan's proposal, but because they heard the sound of mud flowing again. Gollum, here it is!

"Withdraw! Retreat! ”
