"Come on! Yes, come here, that's it, pour some more! ”

Lin Yuan was wearing a black wolf skin tights, showing off his strong muscles, and he found that since he came to this ancient period, his figure had become stronger and stronger because of his frequent labor.

A few slaves cautiously followed Lin Yuan's instructions and slowly poured a large bag of salt into a huge clay pot.

"Okay, slow down...... Slow down...... Wait a minute...... I'll take a look...... All right! Stop!! ”

Lin Yuan grabbed the outer edge of the clay pot and commanded, and the slaves hurriedly put down the salt bag.

"That's it! Meat! Just follow the method I taught you yesterday and put it in slowly! Right! Salt the cracks of the meat! ”

Lin Yuan took a step back and continued to command the slaves, putting pieces of wild boar, fish, and whole pheasants into it.

In front of them was a large pottery more than one person high, and in the distance, there were dozens of the same pottery, and next to each pottery, there were seven or eight slaves operating in strict accordance with Lin Yuan's requirements.

Lin Yuan was teaching them how to use salt to make cured meat.

Suddenly, from the big tent in the city, a young girl in a white linen dress walked out quickly, and she was Tongyu.

"King Yan...... Do you still have the heart to make cured meats here? ”

Tongyu looked at Lin Yuan with a frown, she knew that Lin Yuan had already made cured meat here for three whole days, and the outside of the city wall was full of cured meat waiting to be dried.

"What? Any questions? Why can't I make cured meat? Lin Yuan said with a nonchalant expression.

Tongyu's expression seemed to be a little crazy, "My Yang God! Do you know that these days, you have killed almost all the remaining beasts in our Xianyang!!?? ”

Lin Yuan scratched his head and said:

"No! Didn't I order to leave some cubs behind? It's no problem to reproduce again! ”

"But before those cubs grow up, we'll starve to death!"

Tongyu said anxiously.

Lin Yuan was just about to say something, when suddenly, a sentry standing on the city wall shouted nervously:

"King Yan...... Yanwang !! There is a case in the east! A large number of people are approaching the !! ”

Tongyu's face changed, and he looked at Lin Yuan nervously, it was really a house leak that happened to rain overnight! There is no food, and there is also an enemy attack, is this newly born Xianyang going to die like this?

But Lin Yuan was still calm, he just smiled, carefully let his slaves continue to work, and then climbed the city wall himself.

Tongyu followed him closely, and the pretty eyebrows on both sides were almost screwed together.

On the city wall, Hou Yi and Kuafu were already waiting for Lin Yuan, and the two warriors commanded the archers and stone spearmen respectively, each in place, and quickly prepared for defense.

"Kuafu!" Lin Yuan beckoned, Father Kua ran over, and Lin Yuan asked in a low voice:

"Came back this morning?"

"Yes!" Father Kua nodded.

"You told him everything I told you to say, do they all know it?" Lin Yuan confirmed again.

Kuafu was already a little impatient, glanced at his mouth, and said:

"That's nature! Spread the word about this, my father has never let others down!! ”

"Oh...... Hehe, I got it! Lin Yuan nodded and patted Father Kua's shoulder.

"King Yan! The enemy is already in the front!! Oh...... No!! ”

Hou Yi shouted at the lookout on the city tower, he seemed to see something, and then suddenly turned his head to Lin Yuan and said:

"King Yan! I saw the reconnaissance troops, it's our people, they have our people in their hands! ”

Lin Yuan nodded calmly, walked forward, he saw that the other party had approached Xianyang City, outside the city wall, there were thousands of infantry walking vaguely, a cursory glance, these people did not seem to be the troops on the Gobi in the Western Regions, they were still wearing symbolic grass skirt bibs, and the main weapon was still the old-style stone spear.

Lin Yuan smiled contemptuously, these people gathered in a heap, although there were many people, but there was no formation at all, they were scattered, compared to the Huang Clan's Xingtian troops that Lin Yuan had encountered before, they were superior and inferior.

No wonder the Huang Clan intends to annex the Central Plains, they are too weak!

Lin Yuan sighed in his heart, these descendants of the Yan clan back then were too angry.

"King Yan?" Hou Yi turned his head to look at Lin Yuan seriously, waiting for his order.

"Wait a minute, see what moths they have." Lin Yuan blurted out.

The people around were stunned, their King Yan always had something to say something they didn't understand, but after a long time, everyone got used to it, and it was estimated that King Yan spoke the language of the Heavenly God Realm.

Hou Yi followed Lin Yuan for the longest time, so he could probably understand Lin Yuan's words, in short, it was to let everyone stand still, observe each other, and act when the opportunity arises.

The team outside stopped beside the moat dug outside the Lin Yuan city wall, and then a group of people wearing earthy yellow leather armor ran over and shouted loudly:

"King Yan! We're back!!! We have something to report!! ”

Lin Yuan fixed his eyes and saw that it was indeed the team he had sent to Maijishan to reconnoitre, so he waved his hand, and a crack opened in the city gate below, and this reconnaissance team rushed in.

However, Lin Yuan still gave Hou Yi and Kuafu a look, and the guards on the city wall did not relax.

Suddenly, the corner of Hou Yi's eyes flashed, and the bow and arrow in his hand shot out violently, firmly rooted in the sand at the city gate.

In front of the bow and arrow, there was a pair of legs in straw sandals, and the soldiers who were trembling on it, they originally planned to enter the city with the Xianyang scouts, but at this time they looked at the arrow under their feet with some horror.

Normal people will understand that the arrow was deliberately missed.

"Oops! Don't be so angry! The king of Xianyang! We've done you a great favor, so why don't you let us in?" ”

Among the people under the city walls, came a stout man with dark skin, who seemed to be the leader of the group.

At this time, the reconnaissance captain, who had just entered Xianyang City, also hurriedly stretched his neck and shouted:

"King Yan!! Don't hurt them! They are the grass people!! In the original place! They are allies! We met them in Maijishan, and they wiped out all the four barbarian tribes in Maijishan! They ......"

The captain of the self-inspection team suddenly closed his mouth, because he saw King Yan standing on the city wall turning his head and looking at him with a dissatisfied expression.

"What order did I give you?"

Lin Yuan asked majestically.

The scout captain was taken aback and stammered as he replied:

"Ahh This one...... You let us go deep into Maijishan, investigate the movements of the four barbarians, and then come back as soon as possible to report ......"

"What else?" Lin Yuan then asked, his voice was low and stressful.

"Also...... And also...... Whatever happens, come back as soon as you see it, and you must not come into contact with any tribe or alarm anyone......"

Lin Yuan nodded and said:

"I thought you had forgotten my orders, but you do! Defiance! What sin are you to be guilty of!? ”

The captain of the self-inspection team was stunned, and a group of guards surrounded him, surrounding the captain.

"I ...... O King Yan...... I know wrong! But...... But they're allies!! They helped us kill the four barbarians......"

"Who told you that the enemy of your enemy must be a friend?" Lin Yuan frowned and said word by word. "Look at what good things you've done? You have brought the wolf to our doorstep! ”

Lin Yuan said angrily, then he waved his hand and ordered:

"Come on, let me press down this person who doesn't obey the order, and wait for the fate!"

Then, he turned around and looked down coldly.

Sure enough, the leader downstairs began to shout:

"King Xianyang! Open the gates! I'm the Grass Clan Patriarch! We've done you so much, so hurry up and open the gates to thank us! ”

Lin Yuan thought about it, gestured to Kuafu, and under the protection of several stone spearmen, he walked to the city wall and shouted below:

"Is it the patriarch of the grass clan? Hello! We received your shell, thank you for your sincerity, I don't know what happened at this time? ”

Lin Yuan didn't say a word about opening the city gate, and changed the topic.

The Grass Clan Patriarch shook his head and said:

"Oops! It's not to continue trading with you! You see, we know that the group of monkeys on Maiji Mountain has blocked your way eastward, and you are very weak and do not have enough troops to get through, so you see, I will help you! Ha ha! ”

Lin Yuan noticed the "weakness" mentioned by the other party, observed the other party, and calmly continued to answer:

"Haha, okay, the patriarch of the grass clan is righteous! We Xianyang should be grateful, but today my city has just been in turmoil, and everything is waiting to be rebuilt, and it is an army that entertains the grass clan patriarch in a place where there is no spare time, why don't you order someone to camp for you soldiers outside the city? Lin Yuan paused, and then continued: "I'm just very sorry, the Gobi is short of resources, and now that there is a war, we really don't have much food to entertain, so I will invite your king back to his house tomorrow, as a thank you, I will also prepare three additional carts of salt as a reward for your hard work, how about it?"

Hearing Lin Yuan's words, the Grass Clan Patriarch's face suddenly darkened, and he said in a deep voice:

"Humph! The dignified king of Xianyang is so stingy, we traveled a long distance and fought bloodily, so he sent us three carts of salt? You must be underestimating us! ”

Hehe, it's finally the way out......

Lin Yuan muttered in his heart, and he continued to shout calmly:

"Three carts of salt are enough in exchange for thousands of cattle and sheep, tens of thousands of birds, and hundreds of weapons, what is the patriarch of the grass clan not satisfied with? Do you want more salt? Four cars? Five cars? ”

"Wahaha............" The Grass Clan Patriarch suddenly burst into laughter and interrupted Lin Yuan's words.

After laughing for a long time, he suddenly stopped, waved his hand, and his soldiers took up their weapons and assumed offensive postures.

Seeing this, Hou Yi on the city wall immediately ordered his subordinates to put up a bow and string it.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

"Haha...... Case...... King of Xianyang...... You are really not ordinary, you can actually see what this king means, good! In that case, I won't go around the bend with you! You invite me to come to this barren place, if I don't want to come, if it weren't for the salt you have here, hum ......"

“…… Originally, I was worried that I couldn't find your small city in this desert, haha, I didn't expect it to be hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and you sent a team of scouts to lead the way, haha, as far as your small town is placed in our Central Plains, I can't look down on it...... Forget it, give you two a choice, one, open the city gate and surrender now, be accepted by our grass clan as a vassal, and all your salt will be handed over to our clan, in return, we will protect you from the threat of the Huang clan, and then provide you with enough food! The second choice, that is, under the stone spears of our grass army, will be crushed to ashes, we will completely conquer this small ruined city, burn it, and leave only the pit of table salt, as for your people, all of them will be used as slaves, haha! Take your pick! (To be continued.) )
