If it weren't for Yin Xiao's reminder, Liu Yi would have really forgotten about revealing his true identity to Su Xin. That, playing the prince of the Li Yao clan who doesn't exist at all is too into the play.

As long as he reveals his true identity to Su Xin, then, with his current fame and strength, he can dispel all of Su Xin's concerns. So, are you afraid that Su Xin will not agree to her courtship? After making up his mind, Liu Yi couldn't help but look forward to it.

A night of romance, infinite scenery here.

Early the next morning, without Liu Yi urging the tripartite alliance, Liu Bei couldn't wait to send someone to invite Liu Yi to go to the general office of the Chengdu Prefecture to discuss the matter.

Liu Bei personally welcomed Liu Yi into the hall.

At this moment, seeing Liu Bei, who was all hidden in a black robe, Liu Yi's heart felt strange. This, everyone is obviously familiar with each other, but at this time, they have to pretend that they don't know each other, and each has a different image from the past. This girl, such a polite greeting to each other, made Liu Yi feel hypocritical and wanted to vomit.

"Prince Aguidu, the Governor of Pontus has already sent someone to invite King Meng Huo, and it is estimated that he will soon come to discuss with us about the tripartite alliance. Let's go in first, eat first, drink, and wait for him. Liu Bei's voice was a little hoarse and politely led the way to Liu Yi.

Liu Yi felt that this person's voice was a little familiar that day, but he couldn't hear who he was at the time, and now he understands that it is estimated that Liu Bei also injured his vocal cords when he was injured in Xiangjiang and fell into the river, so his voice was a little hoarse, so if he didn't know that he was Liu Bei. I really can't tell who he is.

"Well, anyway, Prince Ben is fine now. Wait, wait, wait. Please! Liu Yi also hypocritically acted as if he didn't know Liu Bei, and followed Liu Bei into the hall with a big grin.

There are already many military generals and ministers in Yizhou, each sitting and waiting according to the case.

Among them, there are some vacant seats on the left and right, which are probably reserved for themselves and those who have not yet come.

Liu Yi planned to bring Liu Ba with him, but now he knew that the governor was Liu Bei, and Liu Ba and Liu Bei knew each other. Nature can't be brought. Fortunately, Liu Ba was mixed with his own soldiers and did not let Liu Bei see it. Otherwise, I am afraid that Liu Bei will be suspicious. Because, when Liu Bei was preparing to seize Jingzhou in Xiangyang, Liu Ba helped him in Xiangyang. So. Once Liu Bei saw Liu Ba, it was estimated that Liu Ba, who was in Xiangyang at that time, might have fallen into the hands of the New Han Army. Then, now that Liu Ba is with the prince of the Li Yao tribe who seems to have nothing to do with Liu Ba, once you think of the relationship between the prince of the Li Yao tribe and the New Han Army, it will be a bad thing.

Today, Liu Yi didn't even bring Yin Xiao and Huang Wudie, they were tossed by Liu Yi last night and didn't want to get up. Therefore, they were not allowed to follow.

The chief at the lower head to the right of the main seat. It was Liu Yi's seat, and at Liu Bei's signal, Liu Yi walked over and sat down.

Liu Bei didn't go back to the main seat and sit down, but took a glass of wine, walked to Liu Yi's seat, and raised his glass to Liu Yi and said: "Prince Aguidu, in the previous matter, there was something that the governor of Bendu did not do well, and welcomed you to Chengdu, but he didn't entertain you well. This is our neglect of our distinguished guests, this cup, even if the governor of Pontus pleads to Prince Aguidu on behalf of Yizhou, I hope the prince will not blame. Come, Pontus Governor do it first! ”

"Haha, where did the Metropolitan Governor say? The so-called no fight, no acquaintance, now it's not too late for us to sit down and talk slowly, right? But how can one cup be enough? At least three cups! Liu Yi also raised his glass.

"Okay, then three glasses!" Liu Bei also seemed to be refreshing.

Liu Bei took the wine glass into the black cloth hanging down from his hat, and drank three glasses in a row before sitting back on the chief.

"Prince Aguidu, on the same day, before the head of my family was divided, I don't know if it is true?" After Liu Bei sat down, he got down to business.

For this, Liu Yi knew well and understood what Liu Bei wanted to say, and he was also serious at the moment, nodding a little cautiously: "It's true, don't hide it from the Metropolitan Governor, we are not only the Li Yao tribe, but the tribes in the northwest of Wuling and Lingling have already had contact with the New Han Army and had battles." I think you know that, right? Not long ago, Huang Zhong, the general of the New Han Army, led a hundred and twenty thousand New Han troops with the intention of exterminating our tribes, but we stopped them from the mountain gate and scattered their troops in a daze. However, it is estimated that the New Han Army will definitely make another big move. When the time comes, it is difficult to say whether our tribal army will still be able to repel the New Han army. ”

"What's more, although the New Han Army is very cruel to us aliens, according to what our tribe knows, if we can take the initiative to surrender to the New Han Dynasty, we will be treated differently." Liu Yi said matter-of-factly: "Now, in this prince's clan, there have been many tribal leaders who have suggested that if you can't do anything, if you are really defeated by the New Han Army, in order to preserve the tribal bloodline, it is recommended to return to the New Han Dynasty first." However, the father of this prince was unwilling to be restrained by the New Han Dynasty, so he ordered this prince to come to Chengdu to see if Chengdu had any plans to deal with the New Han army. If there is a strategy to fight against the New Han Army, then we can form an alliance and fight against the New Han Army together. In this way, we support each other and benefit together. ”

"Well, the Pontus Governor also has intentions in this regard, in fact, if it weren't for the alliance with the Nanban tribe earlier, he would have made a plan to send troops to attack the New Han Army. The Governor of Pontus has long wanted to invite you Li Yao clan to come and talk in detail. It's not too late now, the change the day before yesterday made the governor of Pontus wake up, perhaps, the governor of Pontus is too anxious. There is no need to rush the matter of sending troops, everything has to be considered in the long run. Liu Bei nodded in approval of Liu Yi's alliance.

"But ......" Liu Bei asked with a suspicious look: "You Li Yao clan, how many military horses are there now?" ”

"There are about 200,000 of them. Actually, how can you muster more people. Lewy said without a little hesitation.

"Oh? W-This is unlikely, right? Can you Li Yao still have an army of 200,000? And can also summon more? Liu Bei's words seemed to be unconvinced.

To know. Liu Bei also knew very well in his heart that the prince of the Li Yao clan came to form an alliance, in fact, to ask for benefits. The more people say it. He Liu Bei has to pay more. It's like forming an alliance with the Nanban tribes. In order to use the military horses of the Nanban tribe against the New Han army, Liu Bei had to meet Meng Shu's requirements to provide military rations and ordnance for his army, which was the basic condition for forming an alliance. Therefore, Liu Bei suspected that this prince of Aguidu had falsely reported the military horses and wanted to ask him for more money, food, and armaments.

"Don't believe it?" Liu Yi twisted his face with disdain and said, "Do you still think that this prince falsely reported the number of military horses?" Hehe. The Metropolitan Governor should know that our tribe is at war in times of war. Everyone can be a soldier, but the 200,000 army of this tribe is a real elite army. There is no bit of a flower fake. Otherwise. The Metropolitan Governor thought that why did his tribe defeat Huang Zhong's 200,000 New Han army? And how did they survive the threat of the Nanban tribe until now? Let me tell you the truth, most of our Li Yao tribe live in those mountains, forests and valleys, and there are many tribes that have not yet been gathered. If you really want to gather them all, you don't dare to say more, and any more than 100,000 or 200,000 horses is just a small matter. In addition, in addition to the Li Yao clan of this prince. In the mountains, there are many small tribes, the big ones have tens of thousands of horses, and the smaller ones have thousands. If the Governor wants to start a full-scale war with the New Han Dynasty, the prince suggests that the Governor can send some envoys to contact those tribes and invite them to join them in sending troops, as long as the Governor agrees to make a big profit, I believe they will also be happy to serve the Governor. ”

"This is a suggestion that the Governor of Pontus will consider." Liu Bei's heart was dripping blood, because he felt that it was impossible for him not to believe that this Ah Gui was talking like a thing, because it was impossible for him to verify whether the Li Yao clan really had so many military horses in a short period of time. Forming an alliance with the Nanban tribe and paying military rations for the Nanban tribe, Liu Bei did not feel too painful, because Meng Shu did have so many military horses, all of whom led an army of 100,000 to the outside of Chengdu, and there were also large armies stationed in the southwest of Yizhou, which Liu Bei could easily confirm. As long as these military horses can be used for their own use, Liu Bei is willing to pay.

"What else do you need to think about? The military situation is urgent. The Grand Governor, this prince will not make excessive demands. As long as you can level the bowl of water, put our Li Yao tribe and the Nanban tribe on an equal footing to talk about rebellion and form an alliance together. In this way, as much benefit you give to their Nanban tribe, you can also give as much as you give to this prince. We are not greedy. As long as it is not less than that of the Nanban tribes. Liu Yi seemed to be very serious and said: "You must know that the military horses of our Li Yao tribe will not play a role less than the military horses of their Nanban tribe." Because, we can directly use troops against the New Han Dynasty, and when the time comes, we will definitely be able to contain a large number of New Han troops for you, at least a lot of their energy. ”

"To put it mildly, if we don't get the strong support of your Yizhou side, then this prince and my father will not have the capital to persuade those surrender factions, once the Li Yao tribe collectively decides to surrender to the New Han Dynasty, then ...... Hehe, this, the overall impact on the overall plan of the Grand Governor, I'm afraid there is still a lot of damage. You Han people, don't you often say, eat the king's luck, loyal to the king's thing. Once our tribe submits to the New Han Dynasty, then we have to listen to their New Han Dynasty. Of course, that was the worst outcome, and I believe the Governor knew it. ”

Liu Yi's meaning was unclear, obviously with a bit of a threat, as if he was not afraid that Liu Bei would not agree to his requirements.

Liu Bei's heart trembled, he had talked and lobbied with many foreign leaders. However, he has never encountered such a difficult one as this prince of the Li Yao clan. Ordinary foreign tribes, when talking to their leader, as long as they promise a little benefit, they promise to die for themselves, and they generally do not dare to open their mouths, and rarely carry threats. But this prince of the Li Yao clan ......

"Prince Aguidu......" Liu Bei seemed to be a little bitter and said: "If it is in normal times, the money, food, and ammunition to supply you with hundreds of thousands of military horses, as well as some ordnance, there is absolutely no problem with this." However, now, I'm afraid it's really a bit difficult. Otherwise, the governor of Pontus, he may promise to pay you 100,000 horses for a month's food and money, as well as tens of thousands of horses for weapons. After the army of Yizhou and the army of the Southern Barbarian tribe defeated the invading New Han army first, and then discussed the supply? ”

"Only 100,000 horses for a month? 200,000 horses are enough for half a month? What does this do? You must know that it will take more than ten days to return to your tribe's station from Yizhou. Liu Yi asserted that he did not agree to this condition and said: "As far as this prince knows, the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Nanban tribe are already supplying grain to your Yizhou side. Supplying us with this little money and food, this prince really did not have the confidence to convince the rest of the generals in the tribe. ”

"Then Prince Guidu is trying to embarrass the Governor of Pontus......"

"Don't be embarrassed! Governor, you don't have to give him a penny! ”

At this time, Meng Huo's somewhat angry roar came from outside the hall: "Ah Guidu! This king is not finished with you! Want to form an alliance with us? You don't have this qualification, Metropolitan Governor, anyway, now the New Han Army can't attack Yizhou for a while and a half, this king suggests, let's kill this bastard prince first, and then this king leads the army to destroy their Li Yao tribe, and then, the army of this tribe will go out of Dongting Lake and occupy the New Han Army's Xinzhou, Changsha and other areas south of the Yangtze River! ”

When Liu Yi heard this, he turned his head to look at the palace door with Liu Bei and others, and at a glance, Liu Yi puffed and sprayed out all the wine that had just been drunk in his mouth.

"Haha......" After squirting out the wine in his mouth, Liu Yi couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Ah, Meng Shu was helped in by two personal soldiers, his head was swollen into a pig's head, and one hand was still hanging on his chest, and one leg was jumping in.

Liu Yi knew in his heart that it must have been Mrs. Zhurong who sneaked back to the barbarian camp last night and broke Meng Huo's good deeds, and then, the angry Mrs. Zhurong must have beaten Meng Huo. Therefore, Meng Shu is so embarrassed now, it seems that he was beaten by the angry Mrs. Zhurong really not lightly, looking at the hanging arm, at least it has to be broken.

"Oh, pig! What happened to the soldiers outside? How can you let a pig break in and mess up the atmosphere? Liu Yi laughed and shouted loudly.

"Uh...... Prince Aguidu, please leave some mouths. That, King Meng Huo, you are ......" Liu Bei hurriedly said in a round.

"Come on, give it to me! If I don't destroy you today, I'll write Meng Huo's name upside down! Meng Huo jumped on one foot and shouted to the outside like thunder. (To be continued......)
