Chapter 65: The Shores of the North Sea

"Brother, what's next?" Bai Liang and Huo Muqing asked in unison. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Ying Ping looked into the distance, his eyes were full of determination, "Since the Huns are in Beihai, then let's go straight to Beihai!" Let's smash the Yellow Dragon! Tell all brothers, to trim up all night, pack your bags, and set off tomorrow! ”

"No!" The entire hundred-man team shouted in unison.

Early the next morning, a caravan of about 100 men marched again on the vast grassland. To say that the territory of the Xiongnu is also too big, this place is two thousand miles away from the hinterland of the Central Plains, and two thousand miles away from the North Sea. Two thousand miles, how can you walk for ten days and a half months.

The group stayed overnight, hungry and thirsty, through the grasslands, over the desert, up to the plateau, and finally on the afternoon of the twelfth day, they saw a large body of water. The water waves are vast and endless, although there is still a gap with the real sea, but it is not far behind.

This is the North Sea, and in his previous life, Ying Ping only saw a patch of blue-green on the map, like a long and narrow leaf, distributed in the northeast and southwest. Fascinated by her style and imagination, at that time it was called Baikal, the deepest lake in the world.

It was the height of summer, and along the way, the soldiers of the Qin army had long had enough of the scorching heat. Especially when crossing the desert, the scorching summer is almost baking people. But as soon as I arrived at this water, I immediately felt a burst of coolness, which made the whole person feel a lot more energetic. No wonder the Huns just took refuge in this place, and they would really enjoy it.

Because the Xiongnu were fortunate to be here, coupled with the beautiful environment, the population here has increased significantly, most of them are herdsmen, but also merchants, officials, and soldiers. As soon as the population increased, it became a city, so this place is also called Beihai City. According to the news heard, Da Shan Yu's palace is in the north of the city, closest to the waterfront. Early tomorrow morning, Ying Ping and others will prepare to meet with Da Shan Yu as the envoy of Qin to discuss the matter of jointly destroying Zhao.

"Brother, this place is really cool, this Beihai is really good, let's go swim in the sea later, wash the dust along the way." Besides, I haven't seen the sea yet. Bai Liang was very excited.

Ying Ping glanced at him, "You, you know how to play, it's not good to play all over the Central Plains, and now that you're in the Huns, you still want to play with the beautiful scenery of the Huns." I can tell you, the water in the North Sea is deep, and there are some water monsters in it, which are extremely terrifying, dedicated to making waves, eating people without spitting out bones, and I won't stop you if you want to go, but I don't care if you are eaten by water monsters. ”

"Really, and a water monster? How do you know? Although Bai Liang is heroic on the battlefield, his fear of these unknown creatures comes from human nature. As soon as I heard that there were water monsters, I hesitated.

"You can ask the locals." Ying Ping seems to be very sure, in fact, whether there is a water monster or not, he is not sure, but in his previous life, he has seen some information about Lake Baikal, and knows that there are some unknown creatures here, and it may be some ancient relics, but they have survived in this special geographical environment.

Huo Muqing interjected: "Forget it, we haven't finished our business yet, in case there is any difference, it will be difficult to make a difference." Brother Bai, don't go yet, rest early, and go to see the Huns tomorrow. ”

Ying Ping likes Huo Muqing's point, he is old and serious, and he never misses things. In contrast, Bai Liang appeared frizzy and disobedient. But sometimes disadvantages are also advantages, Bai Liang's true temperament, Ying Ping appreciates it more, and his relationship is closer.

"Let's rest early, if there is fate, we will meet the water monster, but that is not today." Ying Ping yawned and went back to the room, Bai Liang and Huo Muqing also went back separately, and they didn't say anything all night.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, the hundred-person caravan headed directly to Da Danyu's palace. Bring the goods, brand the flag of the Qin State, and swagger on the streets of Beihai City. Beihai City was originally not big, and there were not many people, and the sudden appearance of such a hundred merchants of the Qin State was enough for them to open their eyes.

Xiongnu Shan Yu's spirit has not been very good recently, and his favorite concubine does not know what kind of disease he has, and he can't cure it by looking for famous doctors. The big order is boring, and now the sun is three poles, and I haven't gotten up yet. Suddenly, I heard a report from outside that a large number of merchants from the Qin State had come to visit Da Shan Yu with gold, silver and jewelry.

Originally, the ministers of their cronies were responsible for the affairs of these envoys. But this time, it is the Qin State, the first warring state in the world, and people are interested in making friends, so why slack off. Although I am in a bad mood, I still have to do business.

"Plug in the big tent first, I'll prepare a little, and then I'll come." Big orders are more than orders. After all, he hasn't gotten up yet, so he's going to have to change his clothes.

Ying Ping, Bai Liang, and Huo Muqing were introduced into the big tent, and the rest were placed outside the account. Before Shan Yu showed up, raw beef, mare's milk wine, and the hospitality of the grassland people were already on the table, which was recognized by the world.

"Hahahaha" I only heard a burst of laughter, and before the person showed up, the voice had already followed. "My dear friends of the Qin Kingdom, it was the great Tengger who brought you to the grassland, you have worked hard along the way, please drink a bowl of mare's milk wine first, and talk about our respect."

Following the voice, I saw a tall and mighty Mongolian man walking over. Dressed luxuriously. Graceful bearing. But his eyebrows were lowered, his eyes were not prosperous, and Uma had a slightly sad look, followed by more than a dozen servants, and the stars accompanied him. Obviously, this is the famous Xiongnu Da Dan Yu - also speed Taiwan.

"The foreign minister wins, meet Da Danyu!" According to the etiquette of the grassland, the three of them touched their chests with their hands, bent down slightly, and performed a standard Hun ceremony.

"No courtesy, no courtesy, everyone is a friend, why bother so much courtesy, sit and sit!" Sutai is also very good at entertaining people, talking and laughing. Exhaustive. But Ying Ping can see from Guiguzi's physiognomy that he is actually very sad in his heart. The more cheerful people are on the outside, the more unspeakable the hardships in their hearts.

"Come on, come on, the rule of the grassland people, drink three bowls first when you enter the door, you are true friends." As he spoke, he picked up a bowl of wine and drank it all, and the servants had already poured Bai Liang and Huo Muqing a bowl of wine.

Ying Ping shook his head and smiled bitterly, he had heard of the drinking atmosphere on the grassland, but he couldn't think of the king of a country, Da Dan Yu also speeded up, and when receiving foreign envoys, he was also allowed to drink three bowls, this wine style was too arrogant. That's it, let's follow the local customs, drink these three bowls, and then talk.

So Ying Ping took the wine and drank it, and at the same time secretly looked at Bai Liang and Huo Muqing's expressions when they were drinking, and Bai Liang drank it all with joy, as if he had found a drinking friend. Huo Muqing drank meticulously, took a sip, and drank it with a bang.

After a while, all the three bowls of wine were in their stomachs, and the three of them were slightly hot, but they were also speedy as if they were nothing. But when I saw that they had finished drinking the wine, I praised them greatly, and they became much closer in words.

In this way, a few people didn't say a few words in business, but the more they drank, the more they drank. Ying Ping drank a bowl and said "for the friendship between the Qin State and the grassland people", and also accompanied a bowl of speed, and also added a sentence "For the friendship from afar". Under the push of the cup and the change of lamp, several people drank more and more hot, and almost knelt on the ground to worship the handle.

was drunk dizzy, chatting more and more speculatively, just a suitable word, Ying Ping was ready to propose to let the Xiongnu raise troops to attack Zhao, and the Qin State attacked from the south. Ying Ping believes that the wine has been drunk to this extent, and his request is not too much, which is beneficial to both sides, so why not do it for the Huns.

At this moment, there was a sound of knocking footsteps outside the big tent, and as soon as he turned his head, Ying Ping saw several familiar people breaking in, it was Temur, the leader of the Wolf Running Army, Batu, the leader of the Bear Army, and Jebe, the archer. At the same time, the three of them also saw the happy Ying Ping people who were drinking in the big tent. As the so-called enemies meet, they are divided into red-eyed, and the atmosphere in the big tent suddenly becomes tense!
