055 I am the special envoy of the second more to subscribe
Li Xiang nodded and said, "Remember, don't get too close to us, don't get too far away, I will send someone to contact you, and any orders will be conveyed to you at that time." This mission is not as simple as you think, remember, be sure to stay safe! ”
You Junda nodded, and Li Xiang found two more scouts who could speak Turkic to follow the Shenwei Army, which was relieved.
He turned his head and said to Qin Qiong again: "Now you are the battalion commander of the Volunteer Army, after I go to the Turkic tribe, you have to take care of our soldiers and wait for me to come back." ”
Qin Qiong was a little puzzled as to how Li Xiang's thoughts could be thought of all at once, so she could only nod mechanically. Li Xiang looked at Fang Saburo and said, "Later, you and a soldier who can speak Turkic will follow me, Liu Yang, you follow quietly behind, don't let them find you, remember their location, and come back with the volunteers to follow." ”
Both of them nodded in response, Li Xiang thought about it, touched the things in his arms again, and then said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about me, I'm sure, just remember to do what I say, let's go, follow me to meet their tribe!" Li Xiang smiled and went to meet the scout.
Everyone watched as Li Xiang, Fang Saburo and the translator followed the scout into the distance. Everyone stayed for a while, and then they went to prepare according to Li Xiang's instructions.
The scout took Li Xiang and the three of them around a lot, probably because he was worried that Li Xiang's army would follow him, so he walked for more than half an hour before getting on the right road and walking towards the tribe.
Originally, the scout was a little suspicious of Li Xiang and these people, but since Li Xiang dared to follow, it meant that it was not what he thought, not a friend, and not an enemy, so on the way Li Xiang asked him some things, and he answered everything he could.
This scout was sent by the Kachin tribe, don't go, after he still didn't worry about Li Xiang's team, so he asked the scout to follow to see what was going on, and what happened just now.
Looking from afar, not far away, he saw dozens of tents set up on the grass, Li Xiang knew that the place had arrived, he counted it carefully, that is, it was a small tribe, and he was more sure in his heart.
When they arrived at the tribe, a few men came over to talk to the scout, and the few men looked at Li Xiang and the three of them, and the scout went to the largest tent to report it.
Li said to the other party: "You have to show pride when you go in later, you can also be arrogant, we are Your Majesty's envoys, we must have our attitude, do you understand?" ”
Fang Saburo nodded, and then whispered after a while: "But I don't know what they said, when should they behave?" ”
Li Xiangle said: "It's better not to know, as long as you think they are impolite, you can behave." ”
This time, Fang Saburo understood what he meant, just be fierce to the Turks, and nodded immediately.
After a while, the scout came out and pointed at Li Xiang and the others, meaning to tell them to go in. Fang Saburo was just about to take a step, Li Xiang said to the translator: "Tell them that we are the envoys of the Great Sui, and ask their Qi Jin to come out to greet them." ”
Fang Sanlang admired Li Xiang to death in his heart, there were only three people in total, and when he arrived at someone's territory, he actually said such arrogant words, and he really thought that he was a special envoy if he didn't know. He immediately thought of making a show, and immediately raised his chest high, his head raised, and looked at the scout with disdain.
After the interpreter told the scout, the scout was a little surprised, but he still went in and talked to Tong Jin. After a while, the tent opened, and Tong Jin and the old men of the two tribes walked out slowly. When he saw that Li Xiang was a child, he was a little angry, so he asked the scout if he was mistaken, and the scout said that he didn't know, but when he saw this person, he said that he was a special envoy, and he also had an army.
Tong Jin walked a few steps to Li Xiang and looked up and down for a long time without speaking.
Li Xiang suddenly said: "Why didn't a small tribe salute when he saw the envoy of the Great Sui? Fang Saburo took a step forward very cooperatively, looking at Qi Jin with fierce eyes.
After the translator finished speaking, Tong Jin was stunned for a moment, looking at Li Xiang's temperament, he really looked like a special envoy, so he had to put his right fist on his left chest, bent down slightly, and saluted: "I don't know why this envoy is here?" ”
Li Xiang said with a tense face: "You Turkic Shibi Khan, you have to be polite when you see me, why do you want to talk to me outside here?" ”
Tong Jin was shocked by Li Xiang's momentum again, so he had to stretch out his hand to invite Li Xiang into the tent. Li Xiang didn't even look at him, and took the lead towards the tent with his head held high.
Tong Jin frowned and told the scout to call all the men in the tribe, and then ambushed outside the big tent, and as long as there was anything wrong, he immediately rushed in and grabbed Li Xiang. The scout was ordered to go down to prepare, and only then did he and the two old men enter the tent.
After everyone sat down, he said, "Your Excellency can tell me the purpose of this trip now, right?" ”
Li Xiang nodded and said: "I am the young eunuch of the Great Sui Dynasty, the envoy of Henan County, Li Xiang, this time I am ordered by His Majesty the Great Sui and your Shibi Khan to take Princess Yicheng to Yanmen." ”
"The Khan's orders?" Tong Jin was taken aback, how could he be the emperor and the khan, isn't Yanmen fighting? Why don't you fight?
"Yes, our Majesty and your Khan have formed an alliance, and this time I am here to pick up Princess Yicheng." Li Xiang looked at the empty cup on the table, frowned, Fang Saburo understood it again, and said, "Why don't you even have water here?" Our envoy is thirsty! ”
Tong Jin endured his anger and asked someone to pour a glass of water for Li Xiang, and said in his heart: "At a young age, there are a lot of things!" ”
Li Xiang took a sip before continuing: "Our Majesty said that we haven't seen Princess Yicheng for many years, and I miss it a little, so by the way, I will take the princess and go to Dasui to live for a few months, by the way, your Khan will also go to Dasui to have a look." Li Xiang said as he observed Qi Jin's expression.
"What credentials do you have to prove your identity!" An old man spoke.
Li Xiang looked at him and said disdainfully: "Why, you still doubt my identity?" As he spoke, he took out a jade pendant from his bosom and carefully held it in his palm and said, "This is a token of our majesty, do you want to see it?" ”
An old man stood up and walked over to take it, Li Xiangyi shrank his hand and said, "Your Majesty's token, how can you easily touch it, just look at it like this." Then he stretched out his hand again, and spread out his palm for them to see.
When this old man was young, he met Emperor Wen of Sui with Qiming Khan, Yang Jian, so he also knew something about the emperor. He looked at it carefully for a while, and said to Qi Jin: "It shouldn't be fake, it's the emperor's thing." ”
Li Xiang smiled: "Your Majesty's things will be fake, you should believe it this time!" ”
This jade pendant was given to him by Yang Guang just after he arrived in Jinyang, and he thought that Li Xiang could enter the palace at any time to tell Yang Guang if he had any good ideas. It just so happened that Li Xiang had been carrying it with him, and now it came in handy.
When I saw that other people's things were real, the identity was also true, and I said in my heart: "Is there really no war on the front line?" With a smile on his face, he said, "Since you are an envoy, how did you come here, it is far from here to the Hordun tribe." ”
Li Xiang rolled his eyes and said: "Because when we came out of Yanmen, we didn't bring a guide, in order to take a shortcut, we went to Yunzhou, who knew that we would get lost when we entered the grassland, and we didn't even meet a tribe in the past few days, and I happened to meet you today, so I want you to send a guide to us and take us to see Princess Yicheng." ”
When Tong Jin heard Li Xiang say this, he still didn't believe him very much, but he couldn't find a flaw now, so he said: "In this case, the envoy will rest in our tribe for one night first, and tomorrow we will let the envoy bring the envoy to find Horton, what does the envoy think?" ”
He meant to see if Li Xiang dared to live with them, if he didn't, it meant that there was a ghost in his heart, and it must be fake.
I don't know that Li Xiang happily agreed, and said: "We still have more than 400 soldiers outside, and we also want to come together, I don't know if I want them to live here?" ”
Li Xiang said that if you want to keep me, then leave my team behind, as long as you have the guts, I dare to stay!
Now it's a dilemma, there are more than 400 people in the army alone, and there are only so many people in his army, most of them are women and children, if people really want to destroy them, it will be a matter of minutes. After thinking about it for a long time, I still didn't dare to agree, so I had to say: "We can't live so many people here, or the special envoy will go back first, and tomorrow I will send someone with the special envoy to find Horton." ”
Li Xiang stood up and said, "Okay, let's ask your scout to send me back, he took us around several times just now, and I don't know the way back." ”
When Tong Jin heard it, he was obviously dissatisfied with this scout, and smiled helplessly: "Okay, okay, I told him not to take a detour, envoy, please!" ”
Li Xiang led the two of them out of the big tent with a swagger, and saw that many men outside were staring at them with weapons, and their hearts were so dangerous, and the sweat behind them was already soaked. Tong Jin also instructed the scout to lead the way and send Li Xiang back.
Seeing Li Xiang leaving, Tong Jin entered the tent and discussed with the two old men.
"Looking at his appearance, it doesn't look like a fake, why did the Khan form an alliance with the Sui Dynasty so quickly, didn't he fight a battle?" An old man asked.
"Yes, how can it be that there is no battle, but the Khan has taken away 100,000 horses! Could it be that you lost the battle? The other old man was also a little puzzled.
Tong Jin shook his head and thought for a long time and said, "Anyway, now that people are here, what should we do?" Will you send someone to show them the way tomorrow? ”
The two old men didn't know what to do, after all, the situation was not clear now, so rashly bringing these people to the Hordun tribe, if something happened, it would be troublesome.
The three of them thought for a long time, but they still said: "I think it's better to be like this, anyway, we have to go to the Langai grassland to meet the head, why don't we ask them to go with us tomorrow, when we get to Langai, there are more of our tribes there, even if their four hundred people really have any purpose, we are not afraid of them, and we also ask the headman to meet him, if it is really an envoy, the headman will take him to see Hetun." ”
The two old men also felt that this method was the best, so they decided.
Seeing that Li Xiang'an had returned, Qin Qiong and the others all gathered around and asked about the situation just now. Li Xiang just said it briefly, and then asked Liu Yang if he had found the tribe.
Liu Yang nodded and marked on the map. Li Xiang said: "Tonight, you will arrange for the scouts to watch them, don't tell them to run away, if they send someone tomorrow, we will plan and go to Princess Yicheng, if we don't send someone, we will pack them up first, and then go deeper." ”
Liu Yang nodded, went down to make arrangements, Li Xiang asked Qin Qiong, if You Junda's Shenwei Army was gone, Qin Qiong nodded and said: "If you go, you will go, and you will follow the gold." ”
Only then did Li Xiang find out that Cheng Yanjin was really not there, and he had already run out to ask questions at such times in the past, so he asked Qin Qiong what was going on.
Qin Qiong said helplessly: "That guy said that he hadn't robbed the aisle for a long time, and he had a good time with it, and he also said that he hadn't fought with the captain for so long, so it was boring." ”
Li Xiang could only smile and say: "When he comes back, he will be confined, there will be no military discipline!" ”
Everyone was happy, and they were all a little excited to wait for tomorrow
