There were several strange guests in Li Shengjun's middle tent, one of whom claimed to be Sha Siqi, the head of the Shanyue tribe in Changsha, and was now bringing his children to give gifts to Li Sheng. There were three gifts www.biquge.info the Pavilion, and the most important of them were the two men who were bound to half of the tent who refused to be brought into the tent by the soldiers under the command of Loud Voice.

"You're here to give a gift?" Li Sheng sat high on the handsome seat of the Zhongjun tent, lowered his eyes, looked down at the three people below, and asked majestically: "Aren't you from Shanyue?" How do I give a gift? Don't you know that we are now at war with the Shanyue people? Or do you have some conspiracy? As he spoke, Li Sheng glanced to the left. Among the generals seated in two rows, the military advisor Pang Tong sat in the first position on Li Sheng's left.

"Conspiracy?" Sha Siqi suddenly smiled bitterly, "How can I have a conspiracy? Although the people of Shanyue also want to give their people a better future, not everyone thinks that this future can only be achieved through the war of iron and blood, and not all of them agree with Attar. It is impossible for the Shanyue people to go to war with the Han people at any time, otherwise it will only be a dead end - we know this very well. ”

"Oh? How could you still think like that? Li Sheng smiled and narrowed his eyes, "So what is your purpose?" ”

"We want to cling to you." Sha Siqi said with a smile.

"Attached to me?" Li Sheng was stunned for a moment, and a playful look appeared on his face: "Why are you attached to me?" As long as I am a soldier, it will be easy to level your mountain. ”

"Does Taishou-sama really think so?" Sha Siqi smiled with a face full of disbelief: "How is it completely different from what I know?" ”

"Completely different? What kind of person did you think I was? Li Sheng asked him with a smile.

"I originally thought that Taishou-sama was a very wise person. The continuation of the struggle between the Shanyue people and the Han people was certainly a catastrophe for the Shanyue people, but it was also not a good thing for the Taishou people. The pacification of Shanyue is by no means like what the adults say, as long as the soldiers arrive, they can be ended in a few battles. We Shanyue people are scattered, and we are in the mountains. If your army enters the mountains, we are fully capable of dragging your fat ones into thin ones, and thin ones into death. Let it all be a quagmire that will stuff you inside. Sha Siqi smiled calmly and calmly replied to Li Sheng's words, what he said was the truth, which Li Sheng had already seen: "For such a situation, I think you must be very reluctant to see it." As an adult, you should take a longer view, and you should not be dragged here because you do not accept our kindness. We can provide the adults with the soldiers and iron tools they need, and all the adults want to give us is an equal treatment. It only takes a single order from an adult to solve it, and it is not a high price in terms of the blood shed from fighting us. ”

"Haha!" Hearing Sha Siqi's words, Li Sheng suddenly laughed, he stood up, walked out of the handsome position, and helped Sha Siqi up: "I didn't expect that there is such a good eloquence among the Shanyue people, you convinced me." The Han people and the Shanyue people have shed too much blood in the past, and they really shouldn't shed it in the future. I, Li Sheng, hereby promise that in the future, wherever I am under my jurisdiction, the Shanyue people and the Han people will be treated equally, regardless of each other. ”

"Is this true?" Sha Siqi exclaimed with great joy, although the ultimate goal of his trip was this, but seeing that it could be achieved so quickly, he was still very excited, and even looked up to Li Sheng even more in his heart. He couldn't believe what Li Sheng said - he was persuaded by his own words to decide to accept Shanyue's reconciliation with the Han people. After all, he was just a stranger to Li Sheng before this, and if a person wants to be persuaded by a stranger, the stranger must have a very clever eloquence. And he didn't think he had that kind of eloquence. In his opinion, what Li Sheng would agree to what he thought was actually because Li Sheng had such thoughts in his heart, and he wanted to reconcile with Shanyue from the beginning.

"Thinking about it at the beginning? Is there anything he wants to use us? Suddenly thinking of this, Sha Siqi couldn't help but feel a sudden sudden. He looked at Li Sheng's smiling face, and found that it was indeed a sincere smile and did not look weird as he imagined, but he was a little relieved: "Maybe it's just that I'm too worried." This young Taishou Lord just doesn't have the energy to keep entanglement with our Shanyue people because he has the world in mind. After all, our small Shanyue tribe is nothing compared to the whole world. Alas...... "It's really not a happy thing to be seen as weak." However, the actual situation is indeed the case, and Sha Siqi can only smile wordlessly.

Of course, his thoughts were only a matter of a few moments. Although the color of his face changed slightly, it did not arouse Li Sheng's idea - after expressing his willingness to reconcile with Shanyue, Li Sheng was secretly observing the color of his subordinates at the moment. Just as Sha Siqi said that not everyone agreed with Attar's set of armed course of action, Li Sheng knew that there must be some guys under his command who still wanted to use force to solve all the Shanyue people. For these people, he may not use drastic means to solve them, but it is necessary to detect them first in words and eyes, and try to correct their behavior in the later actions. That's what Li Sheng is doing right now. He swept his piercing eyes over the crowd one by one, and immediately wrote down a few names in his heart.

"Well, don't talk about all the stuff. The Shatou man said that there are three gifts for me, I don't know which three? Although there are a few people who still have stubborn ideas, Li Sheng is still happy, because he finds that most of those who have ideas are lower-level officials, and there is no problem with being valued by themselves.

"The first thing is what I said earlier, our Shanyue people in Changsha will fully cooperate with you and take refuge under your account. If you are willing, I will come forward to persuade all the people of Yamakoshi in the three counties of Wuling, Lingling, and Guiyang to move under your rule and contribute to your development. Sha Siqi straightened up when he heard Li Sheng's question, and said respectfully.

"Do you have that much face?" Li Sheng still didn't believe it: "I heard that the news between the Shanyue people in the four counties is not connected to each other. ”

"That's right." Sha Siqi admitted this very honestly, but he didn't think it was a difficult thing to solve this point: "In fact, as long as the adults are willing to directly announce what we are talking about today to the world, all the Shanyue people will naturally have a very high respect for the adults." ”

"Presumptuous ......"

"What do you think you are......"

Hearing Sha Siqi say such a thing, not only the guys in Li Sheng's account who were already reconciled with Shanyue couldn't help but jump up, but even Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, and Zhou Rui, several famous generals, showed strange looks on their faces. They all felt that Sha Siqi's request was really a bit excessive.

Hearing Sha Siqi say such a thing, not only the guys in Li Sheng's account who were already reconciled with Shanyue couldn't help but jump up, but even Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, and Zhou Rui, several famous generals, showed strange looks on their faces. They all felt that Sha Siqi's request was really a bit excessive.

"I don't think we're anything? It's just that at the moment, more proof is needed to convince most of the Shanyue tribes. To be honest, there have been too many violations in the past. If you say it emptyly, anyone will forget it in the blink of an eye. For everyone's anger, Sha Siqi responded calmly, he didn't pay much attention to others, just stared at Li Sheng with a pair of bright and divine eyes. This is really a key matter, if Li Sheng refuses to agree, then everything today will be in vain.

Under Sha Siqi's gaze, in the midst of everyone's indignation, Li Sheng opened his mouth very calmly. While most people think that Sha Siqi is an offense to Li Sheng, Li Sheng himself does not see it that way. "Do what you say. Now that reconciliation has been chosen, I must complete it no matter how many difficulties lie ahead. Reconciliation is not a one-sided affair, and it cannot be done by one party alone. If Yamagoe doesn't trust our verbal promises, then it is not impossible to make such assurances public to the whole world, so that the whole world can prove my honesty. It's like buying and selling, buying and buying, but always needing a contract as a guarantee. Li Sheng said. He was very open-minded.

"Thank you, sir." Sha Siqi said with some emotion. He is still very grateful to Li Sheng for such generosity. Because he knows very well that the current strength is on Li Sheng's side, and with his strength, he can completely refuse his own proposal, after all, this is a face-losing thing, and Han people are generally very face-heavy. But instead of refusing, he agreed to his request, which is really rare. Thinking of this, Sha Siqi secretly made a determination in his psychology that he must do this thing beautifully. Only in this way can it be regarded as repaying Li Sheng's favor.

He had made up his mind in his heart, and a slightly flattering smile appeared on Sha Siqi's face, he pulled up a pair of children who had been kneeling on his left and right until now, and said to Li Sheng with a smile: "This second gift is my children." Now that I have decided to follow the Adults and reconcile with the Han Chinese, I must set some examples beforehand. My son is stupid, but he has some brute strength, and my daughter, although she is only a treasure, is a special beloved hero. In order to prove my sincerity in submitting to your lordship, I intend for them to follow your side as slaves and servants to your side. ”

"Ah......?" Hearing Sha Siqi say this, Li Sheng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He couldn't accept this kind of behavior of sending people to and fro as goods. He is not a person who knows nothing, and naturally understands the true meaning of Sha Siqi's words of slavery and spleen: the man naturally obeys his orders under his account, and the woman hopes that he can take him as a concubine.

The use of children and in-laws to maintain political alliances is a common way of guaranteeing covenants. Although such a promise is easy to reverse, even if it is eventually reversed, it seems that both the giver and the receiver believe in such sincerity. "Alas...... Is it just that I have to accept such behavior? Newly married for less than two years, the newlywed, I don't know what Crotch will think in her heart. Li Sheng secretly glanced at the girl standing beside Sha Siqi, and his heart couldn't help but move, and he wanted to agree to it, but he thought of his wife who had been waiting for him in Changsha, so he was a little hesitant.

"Pu Liu's posture", that is just the father's humility to his daughter in front of outsiders. From Li Sheng's point of view, this Shanyue girl is still very good-looking, her color can be compared to her wife, but the hotness of her body is still above her wife. It's just that her identity is different from that of Shanyue, but her temperament does not have the wildness of the legendary barbarians, but shows a quiet and weak taste like a woman from the Han family. After her father finished saying that, she looked at Li Sheng with a pair of big watery eyes and a stunned look, and there was a faint grievance in it.

"Maybe she was also saddened by her father's act of giving it to someone else as an object." Seeing the helplessness hidden in the depths of those black eyes, Li Sheng's heart couldn't help but twitch, and he couraged the urge to hold her in his arms and love her from the bottom of his soul. Although this impulse was only fleeting, he immediately came back to his senses and secretly regretted his "change of heart": "I really shouldn't have such thoughts." However, he could not deny that after seeing this girl, he had already agreed with Sha Siqi's proposal in his heart - men are lustful after all.

"Good...... Good ......" Because there are so many people in the tent, Li Sheng can't behave like Brother Pig at once, although his heart has been touched, but at this moment he still shows a serious appearance. He just nodded lightly at the sand to show his approval of the matter, and then asked about the last gift: "I am very satisfied with the first two gifts, but I am still very much looking forward to seeing the finale that the Shatou Man brought me." ”

"Hehe, the adult's heart is really big......" Sha Siqi smiled weirdly, as if he had seen through all kinds of things in Li Sheng's heart, which made Li Sheng feel a little embarrassed unconsciously.

In front of everyone, he had no choice but to smile awkwardly, and said to Sha Siqi: "Where is just curiosity, everyone has curiosity." ”

"Really?" Sha Siqi was noncommittal, he just pretended to be meaningless and said to Li Sheng in a calm tone: "Actually, this last gift has been seen by the adults a long time ago - that is the two people who were left outside by the adults' guards. ”

"Oh? Just these two people? Li Sheng's appetite was immediately dropped by Sha Siqi: "How can those two people be compared to the two gifts you handed me earlier?" ”

"Can't be compared?" Sha Siqi smiled and raised his eyebrows slightly: "The so-called can't be compared, it's just that adults don't know the identities of the two people outside." ”

"Oh? Do they have any great identity? Li Sheng asked curiously, but his eyes had already shifted from the girl's body to Sha Siqi's face. At this moment, he has basically gotten rid of the influence of beauty on himself, and he can once again deal with the things in front of him with a calm attitude.

"That's nature." Sha Siqi nodded with a smile, pointed to the two people who were carried in and glared at him angrily, and said, "These two guys, one is called Attar and the other is called Aliza, who are the masterminds of the current Wuling rebellion. ”

"Ah......h Hearing Sha Siqi say this, everyone couldn't help but gasp, the shock in their hearts didn't need to be said, they couldn't imagine that the two people they had been trying to capture were actually caught by their own people and thrown in front of them at this moment.

"This is really a great baby, it seems that this guy named Sha Siqi really wants to join our side, don't you see that he even blocked his only back road for this?" For this news, everyone believed that it was true, and in the face of these two extra-large zongzi, everyone finally believed in Sha Siqi's sincerity, and even looked at him with a kind eye.

"It's them!" Hearing that Sha Siqi said that it was such two important guys that were sent, Li Sheng was taken aback at first and then quickly calmed down, and he asked Sha Siqi: "How did you get them?" And how can they be proven? Although I had just routed their team a few days ago, they still escaped with a few thousand men, and now they should be on guard, how can they be easily caught by a few hundred of your men? ”

"What's so hard about that? I'm just doing a little bit of work. Sha Siqi smiled and shook his head, and then explained how he had gained the trust of Attar and Aliza, how he had drunk them with drugged wine at the banquet, and how he had controlled their entire remnants. He spoke very calmly and calmly, with a somewhat heavy look between his words, for him, who is also a Shanyue person, this battle is a victory, but even if it wins, there is not much to be happy about. Because this is the infighting of the Shanyue people after all, no matter what the final result is, it is the blood of the Shanyue people themselves.

Perhaps feeling Sha Siqi's heavy heart, Li Sheng didn't say anything more to him, just walked to his side gently, nodded affirmatively to him, patted his shoulder and whispered in his ear: "I understand your hard work, rest assured that what you expect I will eventually achieve for you." ”

"Really? You promise? Sha Siqiyou asked in disbelief.

"Yes, I promise!" Li Sheng nodded heavily, "Not only do I promise to give you Shanyue people the corresponding treatment, but I also promise to spare the lives of these two leaders as much as possible." After all, they will rebel, and it is also the result of our Han people forcing too much, and it is understandable. ”

"Thank you." Sha Siqi said with heartfelt gratitude.

"You're welcome." Li Sheng waved his hand slightly, sat back in his place, and instructed the sergeant outside the tent: "Come, wake them up for me." ”

Sha Siqi didn't know what kind of drug he used, anyway, he was full of strength, and the two who were stunned were still sleeping there lifelessly, without any sign of wakefulness.

However, the soldiers had a good idea of what to do, and they brought a stream of water directly from outside the tent, and poured it directly on the heads of the two men. Under the cold stimulation, the two of them trembled for a while, but they slowly woke up.

They felt the discomfort of being restrained on their bodies, saw the crowd of people around them who looked at them with contempt on the left and right, and remembered a series of events that happened last night, and they finally had an understanding of their current situation, and they understood that they were captured, and the person who captured them was the "cunning and shameless" "betrayer" Sha Siqi.

"Damn, how could I trust this guy?" When they saw Sha Siqi's figure, the anger in their hearts was not mentioned. They struggled to their feet, trying to break free from the tight restraints. But soon they realized that such an action was in vain, and that it was not a rope that bound them, but a cow's tendon. Now the tendons were soaked in water and contracted, but instead of being loosened by their struggles, they became more and more deeply imprinted into their flesh as they writhed, binding their bodies more tightly.

Realizing that their struggles only made them more miserable, Attar and Aliza finally gave up on the futile attempt. They curled up there angrily, one glared at Sha Siqi and Li Sheng with angry eyes, and the other scolded loudly: "Sha Siqi, you traitor, you took advantage of our trust and sold your compatriots to the devil. Sha Siqi, you shameless guy, you don't deserve to be called a descendant of Chiyou at all. Aliza's hoarse voice sounded in the tent like a basket, and the anger and unwillingness contained in it turned into invisible resentment, which made everyone in the tent shudder involuntarily—it was the first time they knew that people would emit such deep resentment and show such terrifying eyes.

"Shut up for me." Listening to Aliza's abusive voice, Li Sheng finally couldn't help but burst into flames.

He angrily stood up from his handsome position, walked straight to the side of the two of them, and without saying anything, he took out two kicks and hit them the stomach, making them speechless for a while.

"It's long-winded." This is a footnote made by Li Sheng to his own behavior. It seems that he has only become so irritable because of the other party's verbosity, but this is not the case. His next remark overturns this: "To be a vanquished is to be like a vanquished, how can you be so arrogant in the big tent?" Hmph, the kick just now is still light, if you don't follow the rules again, I'll just dispose of you, anyway, I want to avenge my soldiers. Li Sheng is still angry about the torture and killing of soldiers on his side by Attar and others.

"Hmph...... Hmph...... "For Li Sheng's angry scolding, the two people who were in pain didn't care. They knew that they had fallen into each other's hands, and at most they would die. Is there anything more terrible than death? Maybe abuse counts as well, but they don't care. Although he finally stopped, it was just a matter of giving up a useless act. After eating Li Sheng's kick, Aliza knew that his scolding could not bring much harm to the other party. As a result, he became the same as Attar, just wordlessly glaring at Li Sheng and them with angry eyes.

"What do you look at, can you see people to death by looking at it?" Li Sheng, who had just vented his mouth back to his handsome position, was about to sit down, but was startled by the angry eyes of the two. The gaze was so terrifying that the young man couldn't help but feel a little flustered at first glance. Although he recovered quickly in the end, he was still a little annoyed. He felt that he had lost his temper, and he didn't know if anyone else had seen him like this, so he had to hide the embarrassment in his heart with anger.

"Hmph......" The two people on the ground shook a big white eye, giving Li Sheng the anger in his heart even stronger.

He found that the people on the earth looked down on him.

"The vanquished look down on the victors? Is there any reason for this? Being teased by Attar and them several times, Li Sheng was completely annoyed, and he directly taught Attar and them the truth: "Do you surrender?" He asked, a little annoyed, sharply.

"Surrender? Why should we surrender to a guy who will only use vile means? Today, we are in your hands and we can only say that we ourselves are too naïve, too much to believe in our own compatriots. This is a betrayal of me by my men, but it is not a good thing for you. It is impossible for you to pull such words to obey me. My head may be broken and my blood may be shed, but my heart will never accept it. Since then, there has only been Wuling Shanyue who died in battle, and there is no Wuling Shanyue who surrendered. Attar said loudly, speaking harshly. He saw the anger on Li Sheng's face, but he was secretly happy in his heart. In his opinion, it seems that only by completely angering Li Sheng can he be liberated.

"Oh! Are you not convinced? Won't surrender? That's a good ......" Li Shengde showed a playful smile on his face, and he immediately issued an order that made everyone in the tent tremble: "Come on, bring me all those Shanyue prisoners." I wanted to spare their lives, but now it doesn't seem to be necessary. I heard that the people of Shanyue are very obedient to your leaders. At this moment, since you leaders don't surrender, then it is impossible for these Xu Shanyue soldiers to surrender, so it's useless for me to raise them, and it's a waste of food to keep them, so it's better to kill them. I am very merciful, and I will not use those miscellaneous means to play and abuse them, I will only kill them one by one here, in front of the two of you, so that the hill of skulls and the river of blood will be the last sight you see before you die. ”

"You...... Alas......" Attar was a little speechless in anger, but in the end he was helpless to let go. He knew that Li Sheng was threatening himself with the lives of his captives to make him surrender. Although he didn't know what important he was, so that the other party valued him so much that he had to be coerced to surrender, but it seemed that under the knife, he had no other way but to surrender, unless he really couldn't bear to let those soldiers die in front of him. Judging from the anger of the Han people towards the Shanyue people and the anger that had been stimulating this young man in front of him, it was really possible for him to kill so many people in front of him.

"Below, Attar and Aliza are willing to surrender." Faced with the threat of the lives of many soldiers, the two finally gave in. They rolled their eyes, reluctantly endured the discomfort of their bodies, stood up, knelt in front of Li Sheng, and said to Li Sheng.

Although the tone of the two of them was very stiff, and the expression on their faces was more angry than helpless, making it clear that the surrender of the two of them was really not sincere, but Li Sheng's face still showed a satisfied smile because of this. He quickly left his position and walked in front of the two of them, took out a sharp dagger from his arms and picked it gently, but it cut off the tendons on the two of them, so that the hands and feet of the two were free again.

"It's good to be willing to surrender. I also know that you are quite unconvinced at the moment. To be honest, I am also a little reluctant to you, but now that I have promised the Shatou people to reconcile with you Shanyue people, I can no longer harm your lives. The threat just now is just a joke, a means, please don't take it to heart. From now on, all kinds of bloody pasts of our Han people and your Shanyue people will be revealed. I won't touch you again, and I hope you won't touch me again. If there is any trouble between us, I hope that we can deal with each other openly and fairly. Your tribe is still dominated by you. If you wish, you can move all the people to Changsha, and I will allocate you land, so that you can enjoy the same treatment as the Han people. Seeing the two of them stand up, slightly move the joints that were already a little paralyzed, and there was an unhappy look on their faces, Li Sheng directly detonated in their ears The words that were enough for them to digest for a while.

"Are you telling the truth?" The two of them were stunned for a moment, and asked in disbelief, the expression on their faces suddenly turned into excitement. What did they raise their troops for? What is the purpose of fighting the Han Chinese? Isn't it just to get the same treatment as the Han people? They were very happy that everything they thought they had to win by war, and that everything they thought they had thought about could no longer be realized because of their defeat, was now turned into reality by this sudden change of the other party. They suspected that they had misheard from time to time, or that they were still asleep, so they couldn't help but squeeze their thighs heavily, relying on the clear pain to tell them the truth in front of them.

"If Taishou-sama can really do this, we will obey. Shanyue people will never be opposed. After confirming everything, the two of them, who were grateful to Li Sheng in their hearts, immediately knelt down to Li Sheng again and said the words that Li Sheng was most willing to hear.
