Chapter 353: Showing Off Your Wealth

Shan Ling scoffed first, and rejected Mo You's request in one gulp.

Dongfang Shuo is the great slaughter Qi that the Right Sage King fancies, do you want to exchange him for two women? It's a dream.

Mo You also felt that it was not very reliable, but he couldn't stand Che Yi's bitter pleading. Che Yi even threatened Mo He and said, if you can't save your mother, I will become a monk and practice, not only will I not be the king of Cheshi, but I will also not marry a wife and have children.

Mo Yu was also anxious. He is such a son, if he really wants to become a monk and practice, wouldn't he be the last one? Moreover, he also knew that Che Yi believed in Buddhism and was a filial son, and he said that he wanted to become a monk and practice, which was by no means a joke, he might really do it.

There is no way, and I repeatedly ask for Shan Zero first. Dusting off first is just not allowed. Mo Yu was also anxious, and said to Shan Ling first, I don't need you to agree, I will go to ask the right sage king by myself. You give me two days, and within two days, if you launch an attack and kill my Yan clan and Wang Mei, I will definitely not let you go.

Shan Ling thought about it first and agreed. Although he was not afraid of Mo You's threat, he was unwilling to offend Mo He and have a bad relationship with Che Shiguo. Besides, he had already seen the power of Liang Xiao and the others, and when he thought of attacking the six mountain passes again, he retreated in his heart. He couldn't ask for this opportunity.

His task is to pursue Liang Xiao and recover the looted property of Cheshi Kingdom, and now that Liang Xiao is in front of him, his mission is completed. As for the property of the Cheshi Kingdom, it was also the Cheshi King's request to give up, and it had nothing to do with him.

Mo He ordered Mo An to stay, monitor the first Shan Ling, and take Che Yi with him and hurried to the camp of King Youxian.

Seeing that the Huns did not attack again, the mercenaries were puzzled, but Liang Xiao smiled. He only asked for ten horses and let Cheyi go. That's what I want. learned that Che Yi was the only son of Che Shi Wang Mohe. Che Yi also believes in Buddhism. Advocating filial piety, he began to consider using him to delay time.

What he wanted was not to kill as many people as he wanted, but to block the footsteps of the Huns and prevent them from pursuing.

Ten horses for chariots is to show Mo and that he counts when he talks.

Let go of Che Yi because he is the only son of Mo He and has the ability to say Mo He.

And asking Mo He to exchange Dongfang Shuo for his Yan clan and Wang Mei is just a plan to delay time. In the face of this temptation. Even if you're not sure, you have to give it a try. Come and go, at least for another day.

The only thing he was not sure of was the attitude of the Huns, so he had to fight a fierce battle first, so that the Huns could see his strength and be afraid of a strong attack. Now it seems that this is also the wish.

In fact, the reason why this battle was able to cause such a result was inseparable from the unpreparedness of the Huns. Now that the Huns are prepared, the next battle will not be so one-sided, and as the mercenaries' physical strength decreases. There will be more and more casualties, and the geographical advantage will be gradually offset by the geographical advantage. If the Huns are ruthless. If you are not afraid of sacrifice, you may not be able to break through.

Now, it's hard to say. After freezing in the narrow valley for two days, it was up to the Huns whether they could still breathe their might.

Liang Xiao hurried up and let the mercenaries take turns to rest. In order to ensure physical strength and calories, he slaughtered several horses, and the horse meat was always boiling on the campfire, no matter who it was, he could grab a piece of hot horse meat at any time and nibble on it, and he could spoon a bowl of fragrant broth to drink at any time, which could not only ward off the cold, but also boost morale.

"My lord, you are truly a god." The bison held the broth in one hand and a piece of horse meat in the other, chewing on a mouth full of oil, and said: "I still haven't figured out what disease the Huns have committed and why they don't attack." My lord, tell me the trick here. ”

Liang Xiao smiled, wiped his greasy hands on his robe, and glanced at the mercenaries around him. "Who can tell? Say a word, count the first level of beheading, and record a merit. ”

The mercenaries looked at each other, got excited, pushed me, and talked about it.

Liang Xiao smiled at the corner of his mouth and listened quietly. He didn't expect these rough people to be able to say anything, mercenaries like Linghu were a minority after all, and most of them were still simple-minded and only knew how to slash and kill. To analyze the subtleties in this, their IQ balance is insufficient.

Sure enough, the mercenaries were talking lively, but few of them could get to the point. Without Liang Xiao refuting, the other mercenaries sprayed them with saliva.

At this moment, Mo Ya walked over with a big belly and looked at Liang Xiao timidly. "Can I tell?"

"You?" Liang Xiao glanced at her and couldn't help but smile. "You want to make head money too?"

"I don't want money." Moya shook her head and pointed to the horse broth that was gurgling on the fire. "Just give me two mouthfuls of broth, my kids are hungry and keep kicking me."

Liang Xiao glanced at her stomach and smacked her lips, her heart softened. "Okay, after all, the child in your belly is half of my Han family's bloodline, so you can't go hungry. Say, "If you're right," I'll give you two bowls of broth and a piece of horse meat. ”

"Thank you, sir." Mo Ya held her stomach and sat down carefully. "Your Excellency doesn't want to fight the Huns." She looked around and explained: "Your Excellency is not afraid of the Huns, but because of the great casualties. They are all warriors who follow the adults to fight thousands of miles, and each of them is the most valuable asset of the adults. No matter which one is injured, adults can't bear it. ”

Liang Xiao raised his eyebrows, was silent for a moment, and nodded lightly. "Reasonable. Come, first drink a bowl of soup and eat a piece of meat. ”

The mercenaries listened, looked at each other, and laughed with a wink.

Although they have followed Liang Xiao for so long, they still position themselves as mercenaries, and they can't compare with Li Shuyun, Li Danghu and others, and they can't compare with those Han family officials. Along the way, a lot of money has been made, but the casualties are not small, and many people have become timid and want to leave after completing this transaction. Hearing Mo Ya's words at this moment, they realized that Liang Xiao also valued them very much, and their hearts felt a little warmer.

"Furthermore, although it has an advantageous location, it is not suitable for large armies to fight. The adults set up an ambush here just to stop the pursuers so that the others could reach the Pu Kai safely. Pu Shihai is the place where the adults really fought against the Huns. ”

Liang Xiao was surprised and looked at Mo Ya carefully. "Moya, how can you be so smart?"

"So, am I right again?"

"Well, you're right again." Liang Xiao laughed and motioned for Xia Ya to fill Mo Ya with another bowl of broth and cut a piece of meat. Mo Yayang begged: "Sister Xia, can I trouble you and give this broth to the Yan family." ”

Xia glanced at Liang Xiao, and Liang Xiao nodded. Thea took the broth and walked to the tent. Liang Xiao fiddled with the short knife and looked at Xia. "Now, it's time for you to answer my question, right?"

"My husband taught me." Moya's eyes showed undisguised pride. "He's read a lot."

"Wu Guinian?" Liang Xiao was thoughtful. "He's so talented, why didn't the Cheshi King use him?"

"My husband doesn't want to work for the Huns, he just wants to hide in the Wutu Valley, keep some accounts for the captain, and live a quiet life. My lord, are you all so smart, all of you are literate and hyphenation, and you can write and count? ”

Liang Xiao smiled. There is no nine-year compulsory education in the Han Dynasty, the literacy rate is not so high, and illiteracy is everywhere. Tu Niuer and Pang Shuo are both illiterate, and basically they can't read a single big character except for their own names. However, compared to the entire tribe that can't find literate people, the education level of the Han is indeed high.

In fact, not to mention the Cheshi, even the Huns and Yueshi have no writing. The script they used was either Chinese characters from the East or Greek from Central Asia, and Sanskrit began to be introduced as Buddhism spread. But for ordinary people, reading and literacy is still a very distant dream.

Mo Ya's worship of Wu Guinian should be a worship of knowledge to a large extent. However, judging from Mo Ya's analysis just now, this Wu Guinian is not only literate and hyphenated, but also knows strategy, he should not only be as simple as having read books.

Liang Xiao became more and more curious.

"Where is his hometown?"

"Big man." Mo Ya said without thinking.

"The big man is big." Liang Xiao couldn't help laughing. "There are five or six thousand miles from east to west, five or six thousand from south to north, and there are thousands of counties as big as Cheshiguo, where is your husband's home?"

"So big?" Mo Ya was taken aback and dumbfounded.

Not only her, but the mercenaries next to her were stunned. They can be regarded as traveling from south to north and seeing a lot of things, but when they hear that there is such a big country, they still can't believe it. In their opinion, Dawan is not small, and Parthia is a huge empire, but compared with the Great Han, Parthia seems to be unable to mention it, maybe only Alexander's empire in the great saying can be compared with the Great Han.

Mo Ya hesitated for a while, and asked timidly, "Since you ...... Dahan is so big, why is it still ...... And you're going to attack the Driver? ”

"We came to the Western Regions, not for the wealth of the Western Regions, nor for the land of the Western Regions, but only for the Xiongnu." Liang Xiao raised his head proudly. "If the driver is not attached to the Huns, I wouldn't be too lazy to go to Jiaohe City. Compared with Chang'an, the capital of my Han Dynasty, Jiaohe City is just a dirt stump. Your so-called wealth is only about the same as a rich man. In my big man, it abounds. ”

Liang Xiao boasted a lot, and Mo Ya and the others listened to it as if they were in a dream. The mercenaries regretted it, they escorted the caravan, they had already arrived in the Han realm, but they failed to make a trip to Chang'an, and now it seems that they really missed a great opportunity.

"So, my lord came to Tianshan, is it really only for the Huns?"

"Of course." Liang Xiao nodded affirmatively. "The Huns were accustomed to robbing and always wanted to use force to get it for nothing. The northern and southern countries of the Tianshan Mountains have been treated as money bags, granaries and stables by them, and we have come to the Western Regions to prevent them from using your wealth to fight us. Driving out the Huns is not only beneficial to us Han people, but also to your countries in the Western Regions. ”

Mo Ya was thoughtful and silentβ€”
