Chapter 370: Like a Fish in Water
Loulan Guo immediately mobilized a batch of military rations from all over the city. In the countries of the Western Regions, most of the military rations for soldiers to go out are meat, but Loulan is different, because Loulan has a mild climate, has a certain amount of arable land and crop cultivation, and is very rich in military rations, not a single dried meat.
Liu Yu thought that he would get out of the city smoothly, but before leaving, he still encountered a little trouble. The people of Loulan only allowed Liu Yu to follow him to the barracks, and Timur was not allowed to accompany him, saying that he wanted to keep a hostage.
"Is this still called sincerity?" Liu Yu became angry at the moment, "You dare to detain the woman of the envoy, so you are not afraid that the envoy will be mad?" ”
For the understanding of the word "madness", the people of Loulan probably think that it should mean "disobedient", but in fact, what Liu Yu said is that if you don't let people go, you will let you destroy the country. The envoys of the Shun Dynasty insisted like this, and the Loulan people could only compromise, after all, the top priority now was to form an alliance with the Shun people before the great enemy pressed the border. The people of Loulan did not dare to use their country as a bargaining chip to be angry with Liu Yue.
After all, Loulan is only a country in the Western Regions, and it is not advanced in terms of car-making technology, and there are not many vehicles that can be requisitioned in the city for the time being. The food borrowed by the Shun Dynasty people was not as much as Loulan expected, but the Loulan people were cautious, so they still transported more, and said that if the Shun Dynasty really sent troops to fight against the Loulan coalition army against Tibet, there would be a steady stream of food to be sent.
Loulan has a vast land and abundant resources, and it is because of this that it has developed a population of more than 100,000, and in recent years, Loulan has been stockpiling grain in preparation for a war with Tibet. Liu Yu had already learned from Liu Wu that the cavalry led by Zhang Wuzhu this time was about 3,000 cavalry, and there were 30,000 or 40,000 soldiers and horses in the entire Loulan Kingdom when they were strong. Compared to those eaten by their own country's own soldiers. This time they didn't vomit blood.
Liu Yue was kidnapped into the city. In spite of oneself. Now that I can leave Loulan City, I feel very happy. But because he hadn't entered the military camp of the Shun Dynasty yet, he couldn't fly freely like a free bird, and Liu Yu was also very indifferent for the time being. Chetu has been looking at Liu Yu, as if he wants to see Liu Yu through.
"Miss Chetu, if you look at a man like this, it will cause people to misunderstand." Liu Yu smiled and looked at Chetu with a smile.
At this time, the two of them were riding horses to accompany the convoy carrying grain to the Shun Dynasty military camp, and Chetu was also like an overseer. To prevent Liu Yue from being untrustworthy, he will not go back to the Shunchao military camp. In fact, Liu Yu really didn't plan to return to Loulan City.
Chetu didn't care too much about Liu Yu's "frivolous" remarks, in fact, she was also used to Liu Yu's imaginative speech, and said coldly: "The envoy openly slandered His Royal Highness the prince of our country...... Face, if this matter is returned to Her Majesty the Queen...... You have to look good......"
Liu Yu smiled, it turned out that Chetu looked at him because of this matter, and stretched out his hand to make a "please" gesture, as if he was not afraid of Chetu to say.
I don't dare to say anything about this kind of thing, otherwise it will have diplomatic relations between the two countries. And her own position is very disadvantageous. It's as if no emperor wants to be accused of his concubines being vixens.
Liu Yu didn't care like this, which made Che Tu feel even more annoyed. But she couldn't do anything about this Shun Dynasty envoy. There is no rule of law at all. As the national teacher of Loulan Kingdom, when did she be admired in the city.
This journey was too long for Liu Yu, and he could only try to distract his mind and make time pass faster.
"Is Miss Chetu married?" Liu Yu asked with a smile.
Che Tu glanced at Liu Yu and said, "Why do you ask this?" ”
"My Fair Lady, good gentleman. Can't even ask? However, it stands to reason that with Miss Chetu's beauty and talent, even if she is not married, there should be a lot of wandering bees and butterflies around her. Miss Chetu must be annoying on weekdays, right? ”
Che Tu frowned slightly and said, "Our men in Loulan are not as beautiful as you men in the Central Plains. ”
"It's as if you Loulan men are all upright men and gentlemen, but in my opinion, as far as Bruhan is concerned, he doesn't have any good ideas for you. Maybe he plans to be a royal husband and secretly raise you as a wildflower house! ”
Che suddenly drew the knife angrily, and Liu Yue hurriedly skimmed the reins of the horse and pulled the horse away from the angry woman. In fact, when Liu Yu first met Chetu, he just thought that she was an embroidered pillow, and asked her to dedicate herself to it, and she really wanted to dedicate herself, and later was kidnapped by her, Liu Yu felt that this woman was still very impatient, wise and courageous, and it was interesting for such a woman to be "light".
After a slow journey of more than an hour, the group finally approached the military camp of the Shun Dynasty. Zhang Wuzhu personally came out to greet him, and when he saw Liu Yu, Zhang Wuzhu was excited to come over and hug Liu Yu, which made Che Tuzhi, who was watching from the sidelines, frown. She couldn't understand the etiquette of meeting men in the Central Plains.
In front of Che Tu, the main envoy, Zhang Wuzhu did not reveal Liu Yu's identity, and after a few words of greeting Che Tu, he began to beckon people to store the grain separately. Because the shelf life of meat and grain is different, it must also be properly kept, otherwise the food is easy to spoil due to moisture.
Zhang Wuzhu is a rough man who doesn't know how to beat around the bush, and while leading the way for Liu Yu to enter the barracks, he keeps shouting along the way. Liu Yu followed with a smile in the back, and Chetu looked at the two strangely on the side, she already felt that the envoy of the Shun Dynasty was very respected by the supreme commander of the Shun Dynasty army. This kind of respect is like a subordinate facing a superior.
Although Zhang Wuzhu had already instructed that the forward general should not reveal his identity when he entered the camp, the soldiers heard that the commander was coming, and they all came out early to wait in line, this scene surprised Liu Yu, not to mention that he had already come to the Shun Dynasty military camp once.
The soldiers rushed over to get close to Liu Yutao, and many recruits also wanted to come over to see how many arms and legs the god-like "commander" in the veteran's mouth was, and a bunch of people flocked up, Che Tu thought that Liu Yu would not be able to parry, but who knew that Liu Yu was also very enthusiastic and natural, there were many that he seemed to know, and he could often hear him say, "Your kid is not dead?" Next time, let your general transfer you to the front line as a vanguard", "Promoted? It's only two levels, and it's really a shame for the people of the Sixth Army." Only then did Chetu realize that Liu Yu was quite familiar with these soldiers.
"Stand still, go back, don't come any closer!" Seeing that more and more people were crowding over, Zhang Wuzhu was afraid that Liu Yu would blame him for dereliction of duty, so he had to take out the general's head to scare these soldiers. Zhang Wuzhu gave this order, and the soldiers reluctantly dodged, got out of the way, and let Liu Yu enter the Chinese army's tent.
Entering the big tent of the Chinese army, Chetu was about to report the grain delivery situation to Zhang Wuzhu, the general of the Shun Dynasty army, when he found that the envoy of the Shun Dynasty sat on the chair of the handsome case with a big grin, and put his legs on the handsome case, with a very unseen attitude, as if he was recovering the feeling he had lost for a long time. And Zhang Wuzhu on the side was not annoyed, stood aside and saluted, and said with a smile: "General, you are finally back!" ”
Chetu looked at Liu Yu in surprise and asked, "You are also a general?" (To be continued......)
