The two men each wore black cloaks, and were escorted by six Tujia soldiers all the way to a large tent of the tribal army.

As the footsteps got closer, the two of them could hear the noise coming from the big tent getting louder and louder, and they could gradually distinguish the wild laughter, the coquettish cheers, and the music produced by Tujia instruments such as Dong Dong Kui, Konoha , Earth Flute, Ox Horn, and Mang Horn. The person leading the way in front frowned, while the person behind him looked much more relaxed.

As soon as the two lifted the curtain, the noise immediately became overwhelming, and the scene in front of them couldn't help but make them wonder if they had mistakenly entered a song house where they were feasting: the wine table was full of large pots of meat, some generals were drinking wildly, and some were putting their hands on the beautiful women in their arms; During the banquet, smiling and undressed women were interspersed, not at all like the current tense state of a great enemy. The man in black behind glanced into the tent, quickly took two steps back, and disappeared into the darkness.

The man in black in front ordered the six accompanying soldiers to come in and immediately blast away the musicians around the tent.

Faced with the fierce soldiers, the seven musicians retreated in a hurry.

The music suddenly disappeared, and the coiled dragon, who was burying his head on a woman's bare breasts, raised his head and scolded angrily: "Do you want to die, who told you to stop playing?!" ”

"Big brother, it's me, Pan Song. I have something important to report! The man who came in ahead flicked his cloak to reveal a face that was not much different from that of Coiling Dragon, but it looked slightly younger.

"Pansong? You are not in Langzhou City, what are you doing on this battlefield? Panlong immediately stood up, shook his arms, and shook the woman in his arms to the ground, causing the woman to cry out in pain.

"Shut up and get out of here!" The coiling dragon roared and kicked the woman on the ground away. Immediately, the entire camp was like a bombing nest, and in the end, only the two Tujia leaders, including Panlong and Zhao Ye, and the three ethnic minority leaders of the Miao, Dong, and She ethnic groups remained.

Pan Song turned around and returned to the door of the camp tent, led another man in black in, looked at the left and right of the camp tent, and then hung the curtain with his hand to seal it, before turning around and pointing at the man in black and saying: "Big brother, generals, now, there is a great wealth sent to the door, but it is a little hot, I don't know if you dare to take it?" ”

Panlong stepped forward and pushed Pan Loose hard, and said with a grin: "What kind of ghost and god? Who is this person? ”

It was only then that the mysterious figure lifted the black cloak from his head, revealing a fair-skinned, middle-aged face.

The middle-aged man smiled and bowed to the several clan leaders present, then reached into his arms, first took out a small bag, held it in the air, and untied the small bag with the other hand, and handed it forward.

Inside the pouch was a piece of gold, a crystal, and a pearl the size of a walnut, which shone brightly in the light of the tallow candle in the tent. The three leaders couldn't help but let out a gasp.

Pan Long glared at the three leaders with disdain, glanced at the middle-aged man with his eyes, and sneered: "This is also called great wealth? Don't stain my eyes! ”

"It's just for testing!" The middle-aged man raised a finger and shook it at each of the leaders, then said, "It's all such jewels, it's a big ......."

"A big box?" Pu Guishan, the head of the Dong nationality, couldn't help but pick up the conversation.

"No, it's a big cart, six whole boxes! Exactly one box per general! The middle-aged man said with a smile.

"It can't be a lie, right? Did you bring all your jewelry to Langzhou? Li Tai, the head of the Miao tribe, was small and thin, with a pair of small eyes, and asked with a glare.

The middle-aged man glanced back at Mrs. Li, still smiling and said, "Of course not, I exist in a mysterious place outside Langzhou City, as long as the leaders agree, I will immediately send half of the treasure to Langzhou City, and then pay the other half after the matter is completed!" ”

"You're shrewd enough! Sounds like a doable job! Lei Shanming, the head of the She tribe, naturally understood the little trick of Li Tai, the head of the Miao tribe, who wanted to eat black and eat black, and picked up the conversation.

"Wait!" Zhao Ye, who had not spoken, stepped forward and said loudly, "The world will not drop gold and silver for no reason, this gentleman has not said what he wants me to do!" ”

The smile on the middle-aged man's face remained unchanged, he turned to Panlong, and said softly: "General Pan, I wonder if you hope that Chen, Li and other states will also be like the current Xizhou?" ”

Panlong frowned, but immediately widened his eyes and asked in surprise, "Independent like Xizhou?" ”

After the Battle of Xizhou in the past, although the State of Chu and the Xizhou Assassin Shi Peng Shichou made a peace agreement, the specific terms are very worth pondering - the soldiers and civilians of the State of Chu cannot enter Xizhou at will; If the tribal chieftains under Peng Shichou offend the Chu State, they can only be punished by Peng Shichou, and the Chu State cannot send an army to crusade; The state of Chu could not recruit troops in Peng Shichou's jurisdiction; The officials in Peng Shichou's jurisdiction were appointed and dismissed by Peng Shichou. Judging from these terms, Xizhou ostensibly belongs to the Chu State, but in essence it is an independent kingdom within the Chu State!

This is a great temptation that all those present have to consider! Hearing this, not only did the three heads squirm and could no longer speak, but even Panlong's eyes lit up.

At first, Zhao Ye's eyes also lit up, but he immediately woke up, how much benefit there must be and how much risk there must be, he immediately asked: "Why can you make such a condition?" ”

Oh, yes? Who are you? As soon as this sentence was asked, it immediately pulled back the confused minds of several other people.

At this time, the middle-aged man took out a small seal and a note from his arms, handed them to Pan Long, and said softly: "This is the personal seal of a high-ranking official in the Tang Dynasty, please General Pan personally inspect it!" ”

Pan Long looked at the name on the print and the two words on the note, his expression was stunned, his body stiffened for a long time, and without saying a word, he directly handed the two items back to the middle-aged man. Zhao Ye stared at the two small things with suspicion, and was silent.

The middle-aged man's expression was solemn, and he said solemnly: "The development of the current situation in the Chu State, I think you adults know better than me, this Chu State must be Langzhou Ma Xiangguo!" In the future, we will all be ministers of the Tang Dynasty! My master is in a high position in the Tang Dynasty, as long as General Pan and the generals have helped my master a lot, my master will hand over a few words at that time, and it will be effortless to complete the agreement of today! ”

Pan Long was silent, turned around and pulled over a few cases, dumped all the dishes on it to the ground, and then sat on it with his head bowed silently, panting in his mouth.

Zhao Ye looked at the strange-looking coiling dragon, and then at the middle-aged man who was standing there calmly, suddenly a flash of inspiration, a thought came to mind, he immediately pointed to the middle-aged man as if he had seen a ghost, and asked later: "The thing you asked for won't be related to the current special envoy Lin Fenglin, right?" ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, his expression was suddenly stunned, and he immediately stared at Panlong, and said anxiously: "General Pan, for the Chu State, it doesn't make much difference who will be the envoy, so why don't you choose someone who can make General Pan maintain the glory of the Tujia family forever?" ”

At this moment, although the words were not clear, everyone present understood that this was Li Tang Tangtang and someone wanted to borrow his own hand to remove Lin Feng. The eyes of the three leaders twitched at the same time, murdering the envoy of the great power, this is an ironclad job to lose their heads!

The middle-aged man kept talking and continued: "Although Peng Shichou sacrificed a son to be a hostage in Tanzhou, it is conceivable that in the future, the Tujia family in Xizhou will be independent forever, and every Tujia person will always worship the position of 'Peng Zu' of the Tujia family. Why can't the Tujia family in our Chen and Xuzhi Prefecture? Why can't these three generals be? Becoming the hegemon of one party and building a meritorious cause for thousands of generations is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! ”

Seeing that Panlong was still silent, the middle-aged man slowed down his tone, pointed in the direction of Tanzhou City, and said softly: "There are naturally Tujia, Miao, and Dong soldiers in the Tanzhou army. The city was followed by several days of chaos, and who could tell? ”

Hearing this, Panlong immediately raised his head, and his eyes flashed again.
