Chapter 33 Qiangqu Shan Yu

"How dare I do that? What's more, the ancestors attacked the Xiongnu in the north, if I was in communication with the Xiongnu, wouldn't I be a disobedient person? ”

Wei Tao's face was a little unswerving, but Wei Xu only laughed a few times, but fortunately, Wei Tao also knew Wei Xu's temperament, so he didn't think much about it, but continued to speak.

"I'm going to be in the horse business. In the past, I once heard General Lu say that if he could, General Lu wanted to build a cavalry. But good horses are rare, so General Lu has never really been able to succeed, the last time out of 3,000 cavalry, basically all the military horses in my state are concentrated, I don't know what General Lu Daowei thinks of this business? ”

Wei Xu's face gradually showed a hint of joy as Wei Tao's words grew.

Naturally, he had already understood Lu Bu's thoughts.

In fact, not only Lu Bu, but also several generals of the state, including him, who did not think about being able to establish a cavalry?

But the establishment of cavalry was not so easy, and it was difficult enough to just source good horses.

"Do you have a way to get a good horse? The Huns also know this truth, if we don't trade weapons, the Huns will not trade with good horses in vain. ”

Wei Xu still couldn't believe it, if the Central Plains Han really established a cavalry, it might even be difficult for the Xiongnu to exterminate the clan.

"Did the general see the horse I came on? Is it a good horse? ”

Wei Tao smiled slightly, in fact, as early as when he entered the door, he had already seen a trace of surprise in Wei Xu's eyes when he saw his horse.

"That's just the high-quality horses that the Huns traded, but fifty taels of silver. In the past year, although there are not many, there are more than sixty horses of this class. It's not as good as what I'm riding, but it's not too far off. ”

"Is that so?"

Wei Xu's own horse was only slightly better than Wei Tao's, and when he heard this, he immediately asked in disbelief.

"The Huns are good horses, I don't know how many horses Lu Dao has accumulated over the years, I'm afraid it's only one hundred."

Since Wei Tao found Wei Xu, he categorically did not continue to hide the reason, and simply said everything.

"Your Excellency may also know that not long ago, the Xiongnu came to envoy and asked me to go to the Xiongnu tribe, but I am afraid it was for trade. Since the beginning of winter, the grass has withered, and if they want to continue to raise livestock, the Xiongnu have also paid a lot, and even the Xiongnu have suffered a lot of damage. ”

Wei Tao smiled slightly and said slowly.

"In the past, the Xiongnu could still go south to plunder for the winter, but now the general guards the Yanmen Pass, and General Lu sits in the town and states, how dare the Huns come? In this way, the importance of my little horse to the Xiongnu is self-evident. ”

"So what?"

"In the past, the Huns and my horse were all inferior horses, although I lowered the price again and again, but there is no change in the slightest, at most one or two high-quality horses per month, but since the winter, there are good horses for sale, what does the general think?"

"You mean the Huns have a catastrophe?"

There are natural disasters on the grassland, and Wei Xu naturally knows about it.

Although he is not familiar with commercial affairs, Wei Xu can still calculate this account clearly, not to mention that once the cavalry is established, it will also be a contribution to Wei Xu, so Wei Xu is immediately eager.

"I don't know what Lu Dao Ziyu said about the deal? If there is everything I can do, as long as the good horse can be done, I will definitely show my credit for Ziyu! ”

Hearing this, Wei Tao couldn't help but smile slightly, the purpose of his arrival this time had been achieved.

Whether it is greedy or not, Wei Xu has taken the bait.

A team of men and horses slowly left Ma Yi and walked north, and when they reached the tiger's mouth, Wei Tao couldn't help but stand on his horse.

"In the past, I really entered the territory of the Huns, and I didn't dare to forgive the Huns on this trip, but this matter is related to the majesty of my Han Dynasty, and I am once again a word, in the face of the Huns but there are weak people, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"No!"

This hundred cavalry has been trained for a long time, and they are from horse bandits, where can there be cowardly people, and they will all respond immediately!

"The Han army is really extraordinary!"

The Huns who led the way in front of the head did not hear Wei Tao's words clearly, but the momentum of this sound shook all directions, but they were also shocked.

"Let's go!"

This time, Wei Tao did not follow those Hun guides again, but shook the reins and led the Hun guides by half a horse.

The momentum is high, even the Hun guide is shocked by its momentum.

Walking between the grasslands, I saw that the world was vast, and there was a different scenery.

But this is only the first time to walk the grassland, but in the course of really walking, but I find that it is difficult to distinguish the direction, and more importantly, it is easy to make people feel irritable when they travel like this.

Fortunately, there are Huns as guides, and now Wei Tao is not a rabble, and Wei Tao and others are not the first to enter the grassland, but there is no discomfort.

After walking for a long time, there were finally faint traces of people.

"Woo......"

As soon as I saw the camp site, I heard a long horn.

In the past, when the Xiongnu were raided, they often did not arrive at the other party's camp, or they were already perceived, and on this grassland, these nomads were indeed the protagonists.

As the horn sounded, I suddenly saw a group of people and horses coming out of the camp, faintly orderly, and there was a military appearance.

Wei Tao and Zhang Liao couldn't help but change their faces slightly.

"This is my family to greet you, don't panic."

Seeing that Wei Tao and Zhang Liao's faces changed, the envoy still thought that he was afraid, and he was quite complacent.

Who are Wei Tao and Zhang Liao, they have experienced life and death battles, how can such things make the two of them change color?

But both of them saw that this Xiongnu was not an ordinary straggler, but a trained Xiongnu elite.

There are not many such Xiongnu elites in the entire Xiongnu tribe, why did they appear here?

Soon a man was seen riding a majestic horse out of the Hun guards standing quietly on both sides.

The person who came was burly, and there was a faint unruly arrogance on his face, riding on a horse, he was a head taller than Wei Tao and Zhang Liao, and his gaze was slightly looking down, which was faintly oppressive to the two.

This is no ordinary person.

"It's the county lieutenant of Mayi?"

That person didn't seem to care about the hundred horsemen behind Wei Tao at all, and led dozens of people to hit the horses and shouted!

Since the other party didn't care at all, how could Wei Tao be afraid, and gestured slightly to Zhang Liao beside him, and immediately greeted Zhang Liao together.

"Weitao, the captain of Mayi County, was invited, but I don't know which leader is here?"

Wei Tao doesn't know much about the Huns, but just looking at the demeanor of this person, Wei Tao knows that this person is definitely not an ordinary person among the Huns, so he is a little cautious in his words.

"This is my new Xiongnu Shan Yu, Qiang Qu Shan Yu."

At this time, the original Hun guide followed and said proudly.

"Qiangqu Shan Yu?"

After thinking about it slightly, Wei Tao remembered.

Although he didn't know much about the internal affairs of the Xiongnu, the Xiongnu were a disaster in the north of Mayi, and Wei Tao still paid attention to it from time to time.

In July of the second year of Guanghe, the Xiongnu Zhonglang beheaded Zhang Xiu to the original single Yu Huwei, and then set up the Qiang Canal as a single Yu.

This Qiangqu was originally the right virtuous king of the Huns, and he had a lot of momentum and prestige among the Huns.

But how can such a person be greeted in person?

Although Ma Yi is important, in terms of identity, he is only a county lieutenant, and he still can't deserve the gift of this Qiang Qu Shan Yu in person.

"Ha Lu Ha...... It's fun to have friends from afar! Ma Yi was originally adjacent to my Great Huns, and he often came and went at that time! ”

At this moment, the Qiang Qu was a person who beat a horse and walked in front of Wei Tao and smiled.

"Come on! Come! Come! Now there is only one person in my tribe who is waiting for the county lieutenant. Please! Please! ”

Although Qiang Qu was very enthusiastic and polite, Wei Tao was secretly vigilant in his heart at this time.

Wei Tao didn't know what Lu Dao's original ability to be able to exhale was small, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was able to say, 'I am happy to have friends from afar!' It can be seen that he has a deep study of Han culture.

The more the northern nomads learned about the Han culture, the greater the threat to the Han people in the Central Plains.

This has been proven by thousands of years of history.

Unexpectedly, it was Shan Yu who came in person, Wei Tao was terrified. Shan Yu, please! ”

Although Wei Tao secretly raised his vigilance in his heart, his face was calm and polite, so that Qiang Qu could not see the reality.

At this time, Wei Tao and Qiangqu were in front of the two horses and went straight to the Hun camp, but just when they were about to walk in front of the Hun team, they suddenly heard a sound in unison.

"Boom!"

Countless swords were neatly unsheathed, and as soon as they were volleyed in the air, a forest of swords and guns was immediately formed.

Wei Tao frowned slightly, don't look at the outsiders who walked through this formation is very powerful and domineering, but under the sword forest, the pressure in his heart is extremely great.

What's more, even if these Hun guards are all elites, the swords raised in the air still tremble slightly, which makes people even more frightened.

"This is the hospitality of the Huns?"

Wei Tao naturally understood that this was to give himself a dismount, but he didn't stop straddling the horse under his feet, but when he said this, he was a little mocking.

"This is a heavy gift for my Huns, only for warriors, but for those who can pass, they are all brave warriors, and they deserve our respect."

Qiang Qu smiled very slyly, although he said it very easily, but he was agitating Wei Tao.

"But I don't think the evil of the big man must be afraid of this little test, right?"

"Heh......"

The horse under Wei Tao's crotch did not mean to slow down at all, but continued to move forward with a sneer, in this case, whether it was agitated or not, Wei Tao could not make many choices.
