Liang Xiao asked Huang Fu Qi for advice, and Huang Fu Qi said three reasons.

First of all, in the Western Regions, Wusun is the strongest. After returning from the Xiongnu, he conquered a large area of land in a few years, and owned a large area of land in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, with tens of thousands of households. More importantly, he is arrogant and strong, shrewd and strong, and Wusun's national strength is thriving, and he will inevitably become one of the few great powers in the Western Regions in the future.

Only with strength can we have the right to speak. By forming an alliance with Wusun, the Han people were able to pass through the Western Regions. Otherwise, as long as Wusun does not agree, other small countries will not be able to guarantee the fulfillment of the covenant at all.

Secondly, Wusun is relatively close to the Great Han. Starting from Chang'an, the area of Qilian Mountain was controlled by the Huns, and after passing the Qilian Mountain, Wusun was the closest. Only by forming an alliance with Wusun can the plan of flanking the Huns be realized. In addition, not to mention small countries like Dawan and Daxia, even the Yue clan could not pose a threat to the Xiongnu, even if the alliance was successful, it was useless, they were not even the opponents of the Wusun people.

In the end, the Yueshi people seem to straddle the east and west of the green mountains, but in fact, there are many internal contradictions, and the split is imminent. Once split, the strength that is not strong enough will be reduced by a few points, and where will it still be the opponent of the Wusun people. It won't be long before the Yue's people's territory west of the Green Ridge will be completely lost. An alliance with them is tantamount to investing in a dying man, and he will surely gain nothing.

Although Liang Xiao did not agree with Huang Fuqi's opinion, he admitted that Huang Fuqi had a certain amount of truth. The internal discord among the Yue's people can be seen even by a businessman, which shows how serious it has become. If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have had to work so hard.

Whether the Yue's people can be relied on is indeed a question mark.

However, Huang Fuqi only saw one side of the problem: he hoped that he would be able to do business freely in the Western Regions with the help of his alliance with Wusun. But they forgot that the Wusun people were vassals of the Huns. For now. It was impossible for Wusun to join forces with the Han to flank the Huns.

That's right. Later, Wusun formed an alliance with the Han Dynasty and married the Han princess, but that was after the Huns were defeated by the Han Dynasty. Now they are the hardcore of the Huns. And his purpose was to be able to make enemies of the Huns. As far as this goal is concerned, the Yueshi people are more suitable. As for the contradictions within the Yue Clan, he didn't care much about it.

What does the life or death of the Yueshi people have to do with me? It's good that they are divided and decayed.

Although he didn't quite agree with Huang Fuqi's opinion, Liang Xiao still talked with Huang Fuqi for a long time. Huangfu has been traveling to and from the Western Regions for many years. I am familiar with the people here, and I have a certain understanding of the situation of the Wusun people and the Yueshi people. Liang Xiao communicated with him, which could make up for his regret that he was short of time.

After talking for most of the night, Liang Xiao invited them to drink wine and eat meat, and said goodbye happily.

Although the night in Shule was very cold, the hearts of Huangfu and the others were warm. This is the few contact experiences they have had with the Son of Heaven in their lifetimes. Although Liang Xiao is not a close minister of the Son of Heaven at all, in their eyes, he is a real representative of the imperial court.

――

Early the next morning, Liang Xiao set off. Rush to Akita Castle. Five days later, he arrived at Vansu.

Wensu is at the southern foot of the Tianshan Mountains. The snow melts from the Tien Shan Mountains and merges into rivers that flow south into the desert hinterland. Wensu is similar to Shule, but it does not have the geographical advantage of Shule, and it is even more troublesome at the moment. From Wensu to the north, into the hinterland of the Tianshan Mountains, is the base camp of the Wusun people - Chigu City. As the gateway to Akiti Castle, Onsu has always been controlled by the Wusun people. Now Aleusu's strength has grown, and his forces have invaded Wensu, and Wensu has changed hands several times.

When Liang Xiao arrived, Aliusu was personally leading 10,000 elite horsemen who had just arrived. As the sun set, and the weather was still hot, Aleusu and the guards around him talked and laughed loudly with their arms open, revealing their dark, strong chests. The fiery sunset shone on their faces, like a piece of hot iron, exuding hormones to the fullest.

Among the group, Aleusu is undoubtedly the most dazzling. Although his figure was not particularly tall, at most about the same as Liang Xiao, his muscles were very strong, and his bronzed skin was scarred and crisscrossed. He was topless, wearing only a pair of pants, and his eight-pack abs were exposed. Broad shoulders, neck muscles are distinctly triangular, and a muscular man is out of the woods.

Aliusu rushed to Liang Xiao on a horse, and then strangled the jujube red horse under his crotch. The horse neighed, and the man stood up, his two front hooves kicking in the air, and the raised sand almost kicked Liang Xiao's face.

Tu Niu'er and Pang Shuo were furious, and they wanted to rush out when they raised them, but Liang Xiao waved his hand to stop them, and at the same time raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose.

"Why, a warrior like the messenger is still afraid of war horses?" Alusu laughed.

The guards who followed laughed. Although Liang Xiao couldn't understand Yue's language, he could see the mockery in their expressions. Some soldiers who could understand Yue's language were even more angry, and they couldn't wait to rush up and fight with them.

The Yue's people were even more presumptuous, and many knights urged the horses to turn in circles, sandwiching Liang Xiao and the others in the middle, and the smoke tips lifted by the horses' hooves were like two giant dragons, engulfing Liang Xiao and his party. All the soldiers pulled over the big and covered their mouths and noses.

Liang Xiao didn't move, and there was even a little more smile on his face, like looking at a group of naughty children.

Alyusu looked at the smile on Liang Xiao's face, a little uncomfortable. He kicked the war horse lightly and got closer to Liang Xiao. "What is the messenger laughing at?"

"Laugh at myself." Liang Xiao said unhurriedly.

Aliusu was stunned. "Laughing at yourself? Do you think you're ridiculous? ”

"Yes." Liang Xiao nodded. "It's foolish for me to believe the words of others and put my hope on a group of ignorant and reckless people who have come here thousands of miles away."

Alusu's face changed dramatically, and he was furious. Zhen'an was also taken aback. He had long known that Liang Xiao was mean, but he didn't expect that in front of Aliusu, Liang Xiao would be so open-mouthed and hurtful. Not only that, but he also attacked indiscriminately, offending everyone around Aliusu.

"Your Envoy ......"

"Ann!" Aliusu shouted loudly and stopped Zhen'an, his eyes were like fire, staring at Liang Xiao deadly. "Han'er, are you challenging me?"

Liang Xiao smiled. That's exactly what I mean. I heard that you have a bow similar to a human bow in your hand, and I am very curious, and I really want to compete with you. Is this good, if you win against me, this human bow belongs to you. If I win against you, your imitation bow will be mine. How is it? ”

The corners of Alusu's eyes twitched twice, and he laughed out loud. "Okay, I'm thinking about how to get the bow back. Since you have the same intention, I am grateful. If I win, I'll give you another good bow. ”

Liang Xiao crooked the corners of his mouth. "Not really."

"What, look down on me?" Aliusu put away his smile, very unhappy.

"There is no such thing as looking down and looking down, I'm just stating a fact. The prince doesn't want me to let you, does he? ”

Aleusu couldn't hold back any longer. His eyes widened and he shouted, "Bow here!" ”

A knight rode up and handed his bow. Alyusu took the bow in his hand, took another bag of arrows, and glared at Liang Xiao. "Don't be sluggish, come on, fight it out."

Liang Xiao smiled. He reached out and took the black bow from Sigma's hand, and took an arrow from Sigma's quiver, kicked his mount, and followed. Aliusu glanced at him, laughed angrily, gritted his teeth, and said, "You only use one arrow?" ”

"The price of arrows is whether they can kill people, not how much." Liang Xiao smiled slightly. "Prince, before shooting, there is one thing I have to ask the prince to command, so as not to cause trouble."

Alusu was furious. "You say."

"The time for practicing archery is still short, and I have not yet reached the state of transcendence. In case you miss, shoot or shoot the prince, please don't dwell on it. Although I am not afraid of death, but I am taken advantage of by the Wusun people and the Huns, it is not worth it. You say, don't you? ”

"You're going to shoot me?" Aleusu's eyes narrowed, and the light was fierce.

"I don't want to kill you, but I can't guarantee it." Liang Xiao smiled even brighter. "The prince is so strong, there should be no problem with an arrow. But who can say for sure, in case my arrow hits the vital ......" he said, he glanced at Aliusu's neck with malicious intent, then looked downward, paused in Alyusu's heart, and finally landed on Alyusu's lower abdomen, and then smiled. "It's a bit of a hassle."

Alyusu was uncomfortable with him, and suddenly felt a little weak. Before that, Tie Huali had already sent someone to inform him and told him the original news from Zhen'an. Hearing that Liang Xiao had an arrogant attitude and even proposed to confront Tie Huali and the two armies, Aleusu was very unhappy, so he wanted to give Liang Xiao a dismount and let him see what a real hero was.

Tie Huali is not wrong, Liang Xiao is really arrogant, and it is not ordinary arrogance. In front of so many people, he not only spoke insultingly and asked him for advice, but also threatened to shoot him or even shoot him. What's even infuriating is that he only uses an arrow.

Aleusu has been through a hundred battles and has fought countless people, but it is the first time he has seen such an arrogant person. He decided, no matter what, to teach Liang Xiao a bloody lesson.

"Okay, then we'll make a life-and-death decision." Alyusu put the quiver on his back, turned around and shouted an order to his subordinates, announcing a life-and-death duel with Liang Xiao. In case of any loss, Liang Xiao's subordinates must not be embarrassed.

The Yueshi people immediately became nervous, and the originally warm atmosphere became very depressing. Zhen'an is even more pale. He wanted to step forward to persuade him, but before he could move, he was stopped by Aliusu's fierce eyes. He regretted that he couldn't improve his relationship with Liang Xiao along the way, and as a result, as soon as they met, the two had to fight to the death.

Pang Shuo, Tu Niu'er and others were also very uneasy. They gathered around and looked at Liang Xiao.

"Master, I'll fight for you." Sigma asked.

"My lord, I'm willing to fight for you." Firefox also stepped forward.

Liang Xiao laughed and reached out to pat Firefox's shoulder. "Firefox, although your archery skills are good, you have no chance of winning with Aleusubi. You all rest assured, he shoots sick into the body, he is strong on the outside and the inside, and he can't win against me. ”

"Shooting?" Firefox's eyes swept over Aliusu in the distance, and he realized. Liang Xiao saw it and smiled slightly: "You can see it, right?" ”

Firefox nodded, in admiration. "The adults are really observant, and their eyes are like electricity."

Sigma was puzzled, looked at Liang Xiao, and then looked at Firefox, and stopped talking-
