Not to mention that Chen Ping and his party went to the Yue clan with many gifts, let's talk about the situation of another team of people and horses going to the Xiongnu, and the treasures they brought are countless, including more than ten good horses, and countless wine vessels in the mainland.

When the patriarch of the Xiongnu tribe heard that Lu Yan was coming to attack with his troops, he had already begun to do the work of preparation, and suddenly heard that a team of envoys was coming, and the patriarch of the Xiongnu couldn't help but be a little surprised.

The two sides have not yet met, the Qin army actually came to give gifts, and there are many treasures, in addition to the envoy repeatedly emphasized that the Qin army is young, does not understand military affairs, but the army is placed in a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, hoping that the Huns will not come to attack, isn't it all happy, the Huns are located in Henan, the Qin army will not take back, let the Huns occupy.

Hearing such flattering words from the envoy of the Qin State, even the monarch would be full of joy, let alone such an uneducated tribal leader.

Immediately traveled hand in hand with the envoy to the grassland, made an oath, willing to form an alliance, mutual non-aggression, no matter what the tribal patriarch did, the envoy all flattered, which also made the Xiongnu leader more proud.

Immediately spoke in front of all the Xiongnu elders, never attack the Qin army, even if the Qin State sent troops to the Yue clan, the Xiongnu still would not care, the envoy was successful, and did not stay long, and immediately returned to the camp to tell Lu Yan.

When Lu Yan learned that the leader of the Xiongnu was so arrogant, he was naturally much more relieved, but he was worried about Chen Ping, who went to the Yue clan, after all, this matter was said to be successful, and he could send troops to fight.

The Xiongnu side made proper arrangements, and Chen Ping's team arrived at the Yue clan in two days, and the patriarch heard that the envoy of the Qin State was coming, and he was also puzzled, because the Qin army did not send troops, but only came to make friends, the Yue clan patriarch naturally did not dare to snub Chen Ping.

After all, he is the envoy of the Qin State, in case something happens, how can the thousands of soldiers of his Yue clan resist the encirclement and suppression of tens of thousands of people in the Qin army, so the head of the Yue clan is quite cautious.

Chen Ping knew that the patriarch of the Yue clan would act like this, of course, Chen Ping would not go too far, and all the etiquette should be complete, and there was no intention of insulting the Yue clan.

And dedicated all the property brought to the Yue clan, staying for three or four days, Chen Ping found out the details of the Yue clan patriarch, knowing that he was deeply afraid of the Qin army, so he specially invited the patriarch to come to Chen Ping's tent for a banquet, and he could bring guards and ministers.

How dare the patriarch of the Yue clan refuse, he immediately went to Chen Ping's tent with his ministers to attend a banquet, and after three rounds of drinking, Chen Ping saw that the patriarch of the Yue clan let go of his restraints a little, and immediately talked to the patriarch of the Yue clan.

"I heard that the Yue clan lives between the Qiang and the Xiongnu, and I am very helpless, I don't know how the patriarch of the Yue clan feels?" There was a slight comforting tone in Chen Ping's words.

The patriarch of the Yue clan immediately put down the wine glass in his hand and breathed a long sigh of relief, "I am also depressed in my heart, the two clans have always been strong, and the reason why the Yue clan has been able to survive to this day is that our clan pays tribute to the two clans every year. ”

"I see, it's really hard for the people of the Yue Clan." Chen Ping pretended to sigh.

Chen Ping also gradually became familiar with what the Yue clan was thinking during the conversation, and the more he felt that this plan could be achieved, "I have always asked the Yue clan to be south of the Qilian Mountains and north of the Yanzhi Mountains, but I didn't expect to be bullied by the Qiang clan to such a point. ”

When the people of the Yue clan heard Chen Ping say this, they all gritted their teeth, not because they hated Chen Ping, but because they were angry at the unreasonableness of the Qiang people, they didn't dare to compete with them because their troops were not strong.

"Don't worry, now that the Yue clan is friendly with the Qin State, we are willing to send troops to help the Yue clan exterminate the Qiang clan, and then the north of Yanzhi Mountain will be the Yue clan." Chen Ping said abruptly and seriously.

The patriarch of the Yue clan just frowned, very skeptical of Chen Ping's words, "It's not that our clan doesn't trust the envoy, it's just that what is the benefit of this to the Qin army, but to help the people of the Yue clan do things like this." ”

"This is the meaning of the King of Qin, my king knows that the people of the Yue clan are cautious and obedient, and often live in the north of Qilian Mountain, but the people of the Qiang tribe have always invaded Shu County, so the king is willing to make peace with the people of the Yue clan and jointly expel the Qiang people, the north of Yanzhi Mountain is the territory of the people of the Yue clan, as long as the patriarch of the Yue clan does not invade our country, there will be nothing to do with each other from then on."

The patriarch of the Yue clan also nodded after hearing this, and secretly pondered in his heart, the Qiang people have always invaded the border of the Qin State, and our people have always been cautious, so the Qin Dynasty helped me not to help the Qiang people, when the Qiang army was wiped out, our people lived in it, and the border people of the Qin State were reconciled.

With a mind in his heart, he agreed with what Chen Ping said, "The Qin State really has the demeanor of a great power, and our people are willing to help it." The Yue Clan Patriarch raised his glass and said.

Chen Ping saw that the plan was successful, and he was afraid that the Yue clan would rebel, so he cut his finger with a knife, dripping blood and wine glass, "In this case, with blood as an alliance, I don't know what to think?" Chen Ping said that he drank blood wine.

The patriarch of the Yue clan did not know the etiquette of the Central Plains, but imitated what Chen Ping did, and at the same time ordered someone to take out the map and send it to Chen Ping to show the loyalty of the Yue clan.

It turned out that the patriarch of the Yue clan paid tribute to the patriarch of the Qiang tribe all the year round, and at the same time ordered people to draw all the places he traveled in the picture, which is the map in Chen Ping's hands today.

Chen Ping took the Qiang regional drawings, his heart was overjoyed, and immediately discussed with the Yue clan about sending troops, but the Yue clan was small, only 5,000 soldiers, while the Qiang soldiers had about 20,000.

However, the Qin army can also send 20,000 troops, and as for the 5,000 soldiers of the Yue clan, they can ambush around Yanzhi Mountain, and the Qin army can attack head-on, so that nothing goes wrong.

As for the Qiang people did not invade Shu County, what Chen Ping said was also made up, the Qiang patriarch lived in the north of Shu County, west of Yanzhi Mountain, and heard that the Yue clan and the Xiongnu received gifts from the Qin army.

I felt that the Qin army was incompetent, and only lived in the north of Shu County, and did not immediately deploy troops, but thought that the Qin army would come to pay tribute to the Qiang people sooner or later, and I was even more proud of this.

Chen Ping Jicheng did not stay in the Yue clan for long, now it is about October, according to the calendar of the Qin Dynasty, it is the Spring Festival period, but Lu Yan does not care about these, only the Yue clan is the top priority.

When Lu Yan heard that Chen Ping was back, he personally rode a horse five miles to greet him, just because Lu Yan was very concerned about this matter, Chen Ping saw Lu Yan receiving him, and immediately got off the carriage and came on foot.

"Does it matter, sir?" Lu Yan immediately dismounted and asked.

"Master Hou can send troops." Chen Ping also replied happily.

The two immediately returned to the camp hand in hand, Yingbu had already prepared tea, and there was still a stove in the camp tent, which was quite warm, "Brother, are you sure that you will lead the troops to attack the Qiang this time?" Lu Yan asked as he sat by the fire.

Yingbu immediately got up, "Master Hou, don't worry, this is a trivial matter, and with my 20,000 soldiers and horses, we will definitely be able to capture the patriarch of the Qiang tribe." ”

"What do you think, sir?" When Lu Yan saw Yingbu like this, he only felt a little proud in his heart, so he couldn't help but worry.

Chen Ping sipped his warm tea slightly, "I think the head of the Yingbu guard is completely competent, this is not for pride, but for the sake of vigor, such morale, why not win the Qiang barbarians." ”
