readx; There are always a few unwilling people who follow Lai Ba wholeheartedly into the arms of the Tubo people, although Zhou Tong deprived Lai Ba of the right to join the trade of Dousha Pass, but did not block his channels for trading with the Song people, Lai Ba became the elder brother of the Heishui clan, and failed to bring obvious benefits to the Lai family, but in a short period of time, the wealth accumulated by the Lai family was put into the battle to support the son-in-law to fight for hegemony.

In the war of a dozen tribes, it is simply impossible to have a strong king in a short period of time, and those tribes will not allow a single tribe to appear here, if one tribe begins to be strong enough to threaten the others, the rest of the weak tribes will unite to attack this powerful tribe, even if they are enemies, it will not prevent this alliance from happening.

The Blackwater Department was once powerful, and after Lai Shijiu saw more than a dozen tribes unite to attack the Blackwater Tribe, this powerful tribe was basically on the verge of life and death, and the race that was most likely to perish here was not the weaker tribe, but the most powerful tribe.

The situation here is basically a muddy pond, whoever comes in will get muddy water, even if the powerful tribes come down from the plateau, the only end here is to lose their troops, so that those powerful tribes will never send troops to the western Yunnan grassland to join in the fun.

Wars often give birth to conspiracy, and as long as conspiracy prevails, it will produce a law of relative equilibrium, that is, the relative equality of forces.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, this equality was maintained for a full 991 years, until Emperor Qin ruled China under the reign of Emperor Ying.

Yun Zheng broke the fragile balance of the western Yunnan grassland, that is, he planned to repeat the tragic experience of the Han people during the Three Kingdoms period in the western Yunnan grassland, and that time tens of millions of Han people were left with only two million left. This time, the war in the grasslands of western Yunnan was especially worse than that of the three countries.

Lai Shijiu naturally didn't know these advanced knowledge, he only knew that the scale of the Tubo people fighting here was getting smaller and smaller, and it was not unusual for tens of thousands of people to be dispatched to fight at the earliest, and now most of the battles are between hundreds of people, or even between dozens of people. The battle of 2,000 men launched by Langrig this time may become a resounding sound after a crushing defeat.

Lai Nineteen is not a despicable traitor, he just doesn't want to see the Lai family dragged into that quagmire by Lai Ba because of his selfishness, at least that's what he thought when he told the monkey the news.

For the sake of the whole clan, isn't it very reasonable to lose a Lai Ba?

The family covered in green silk cloth pulled Lao Zhao off a leech from his cover, threw it on the ground and trampled it to death, spat and said to Yun Er: "There are birds flying in the forest thirty miles away. Someone should have come, and according to the footsteps, they will arrive here tomorrow afternoon. ”

Yun Er smiled: "It's really here, the Black Water Department is really a thief, it seems that they have indeed reached the point of exhaustion." How about Lao Zhao. Will you be able to hold out in the woods until tomorrow? ”

Lao Zhao said with a smile: "The forests here are not as good as the forests of Jiaozhi Country, the forests there are the real Lin Mang, the brothers who come here have all been to Jiaozhi, and there is no problem in persevering until noon tomorrow." ”

"That's good, try to put this matter to an end without alarming the women and children, they are here to take a bath and play, not to be afraid."

Lao Zhao smiled and nodded, and then re-entered the forest......

Today is the day of Lu Qingqing's banquet, early in the morning. The maids of the Yun family began to get busy, and the bacon commanded them to stuff a lot of mud lumps into the charcoal fire, and the second young master had shot a lot of pheasants in the past few days. Just make it all into a delicious grilled chicken, and everyone will love it.

Ask the self-combing girls who call themselves omnipotent to kill a cow, three sheep and a pig, and pick some fresh vegetables from the garden, and the picnic begins.

The banquet of the woman's house naturally lacks the heroism of the banquet of the man's house, except for whispering. Only Princess Kui Ming's pretended heroic voice was left.

Qin Guo had long heard Yun Er talk about Princess Kui Ming, and this Xixia princess was completely different from what he thought. It stands to reason that royal education could not have taught a woman to eat meat and drink wine in a big bowl. But the real Xixia princess in front of her gave her a different feeling.

With a bang, Princess Kui Ming bit off a piece of the wine bowl, and the edge of the porcelain cut her lip, and she actually drank her own blood with the wine in the bowl.

"Happy!" Kui Ming wiped his mouth and sighed, and said lightly to Lu Qingqing, who was silently drinking grape wine beside him: "How about my family's entry into the western Yunnan grassland?" If you agree, I won't ask Yun Zheng to borrow seeds, and tell you that if I hadn't controlled it that day, I might be pregnant now. ”

Lu Qingqing scratched his head painfully and asked, "Do you Xixia people always like to plot against other people's husbands?" In the past, Li Yuanhao liked to plot other people's wives, I know, why are you also this virtue now?

If you really like my husband, it's not impossible to marry into the family as a concubine, and now there is only one concubine in the Yun family, and some people have already said that I am a vinegar lady, as long as I am subject to the family rules of the family, it is not a big deal to have one more concubine. ”

Kui Ming smiled: "I am the princess of Western Xia, although I am unlucky, but I am a princess after all, where is the reason to enter your house as a concubine." ”

Lu Qingqing was reluctant to entangle with Kui Ming in this matter and asked, "I don't even know about my family's march into the western Yunnan grassland, where did you know?" ”

Kui Ming pursed his lips and smiled: "Can the affairs of the Yun family escape the Five Finger Mountain of you, the housekeeper's mother-in-law?" When did Zhu Changgui, who has always been known as the skin of pork chops, be generous enough to give your Yun family's goods on credit to those poor tribes who have only one life left?

How dare he without the consent of your housekeeper? ”

Lu Qingqing smiled: "That's the Yun family's kindness, and they can't see others suffering......"

Kui Ming's eyebrows were raised, and he lowered his voice and said: "You may be kind-hearted, Qiuyan may be kind-hearted, Yun Er may be kind-hearted, I believe it, but I don't believe that your husband is kind-hearted, he doesn't ask about the process at all in order to achieve his goal, he goes to Western Xia, the emperor of Western Xia is dead, the prince is dead, he goes to Jiaozhi, Jiaozhi is unlucky, he goes to Qingtang, Qingtang is gone, he goes to Yanmen Pass...... Hehe, I heard that the wild dogs there don't eat carcasses anymore......

Now that he has come to western Yunnan, the people of the Great Song Dynasty naturally have nothing to worry about, you go and ask those Dali people, you go and ask those Tubo people, which one is not like the enemy, they all say that the phoenix is not a sycamore and does not stand, I calculated for a long time and found that the grassland of western Yunnan is likely to be the place where your phoenix husband will settle, as long as it is the place where he settles, it will often be smoke. ”

Lu Qingqing's face did not change: "I am a woman, how to ask about the affairs of the man's family, but what are you going to do in the western Yunnan grassland?" ”

Kui Ming leaned in front of Ge Qiuyan and whispered: "I was originally a person from the grassland Gobi, and there is no way to live in this rainy place in Shuzhong, do you know why I built such a tall watchtower?" ”

Lu Qingqing smiled and shook her head, she was really strange why Kui Ming wanted to get so many self-combing girls.

"In May, I basically couldn't wear clothes, as long as I tied a belt around my waist, I would get eczema...... That's why I'm usually in the watchtower without clothes......"

Lu Qingqing was stunned for a moment, and immediately gritted his silver teeth and said, "When my husband goes to your watchtower as a guest, you won't be without clothes, right?" ”

Kui Ming chuckled: "Naturally, I wore it in the winter, and I wore two gauze clothes......"

Lai Hachi's team silently walked through the trees, the black pine forest was full of thick pine needles, and Yoriba stopped from time to time to discern the direction, and then everyone ran quickly in the direction he had set.

When it was dark, the people began to camp, and the bright bonfires were lit, and each man took out his share of horse meat, roasted it on the fire, and began to bite in large gulps, which was the last food of the Black Water Department.

"Remember, this time we are going to kidnap those women for food, not to harm those women, if there is a case like this, those Song people will go crazy, and the final result will be endless death.

The whole clan, young and old, will starve to death and freeze to death. Lai Ba used skillful Tubo dialect to tell everyone not to take the battlefield to the Steamer Gorge, otherwise the Song people would attack regardless of the casualties, if that situation occurred, those women would certainly suffer heavy casualties, and the women and children of the Heishui Department would have no way to live at all.

Lai Shijiu said in Chinese: "Starling, why do we care about the life and death of those Tubo people? We don't have many mountain people left, as long as we go to Dousha County to find the government, we can always survive if we get a household registration, I also heard that the government will give food and seeds to the mountain people who go down the mountain, and you can also borrow the official cattle of the official family to farm, there is no need to work so hard. ”

Lai Ba looked at Lai Nineteen's eyes and said: "Without strong strength, no matter how much money we earn, our wealth is empty, do you remember how Zhou Tong dealt with us last time?" A fluttering sentence took away the trade route we had opened up with our lives, and with a sentence of "go back to the mountains to graze", we could only return to the mountains and continue to live a hard life.

You also saw that population is strength, as long as the children grow up, the Lai family will always become strong, and no one will dare to bully us anymore. We have had rich days, it's not uncommon, and now what we want is the power to have the final say.

It is worth the pain of the moment in exchange for the glory of eternity. ”

Seeing that Lai Ba said impassionedly and did not mean to stop at all, Lai Jiu sighed and lowered his head and continued to eat his horse meat, the thought in his heart became more firm, Lai Ba was already crazy, he would bring the rest of the Lai clan into the abyss, and he should really make some plans for his own baby.
