After completing the first phase of the mission, the Great Song Task Force retreated to Bostan Castle, a hundred miles away from the Murayi Kingdom, which originally belonged to a small lord of the Seljuk Empire, managed a radius of two hundred miles and ruled over a population of less than three thousand. Due to its hilly location between the mountains and the plateau, the grain production is not abundant, but it is rich in various fruits, especially grapes.

In this era, the backwardness of transportation and preservation methods determined that most of these fruits could only rot in the ground, so the Marquis of Bostan said that he was a nobleman, but in fact he was not rich. But this land was favored by Sheng Hetang, and now the life of the Great Song Dynasty is gradually getting better, and there is a great demand for wine produced in foreign lands. If you start your own brewing, you can reduce costs, control prices, and make more profits.

So Sheng Hetang discussed with the Marquis of Bostan to buy this land, and the price offered was very exciting. Thinking that there was not much income for a year, but his own marquis only had enough food and clothing, the Marquis of Bostan simply asked for the price to be doubled, and even sold his title to them. Sheng Hetang felt that it was convenient to do business here, and that he could enjoy many privileges, so he agreed to buy his land, along with his subjects, titles, and castles, for five thousand dinars.

What is the concept of 5,000 dinars, after Yelu Dashi conquered Khorezm, he was asked to pay a tribute of 30,000 dinars a year, which can be said to be a sky-high price. The Marquis of Bostan, who had made a windfall, did not ask for anything except the clothes on his body, transferred everything to Sheng Hetang with a contract, and took his wife and children to buy a manor on the coast of the Caspian and became a rich man. lived a real aristocratic life and enjoyed pure blessings.

After Sheng Hetang took over, he attacked his title with a Turkic member of the hall. Then he gathered people to vigorously develop the viticulture industry and opened a winery. The wine produced is basically sold to the Great Song Dynasty through the channels of Tangzhong, and today it has occupied half of the domestic wine market more than ten years later. Due to the fact that the Seljuk Empire has been in turmoil in recent years, and the political situation is changeable, few people know that this famous production area has been controlled by the Song people, and no one knows that the owner of the territory is just an 'impostor'.

In order to resist the infestation of bandits and other lords who coveted wealth, Sheng Zhongtang formed an armed guard of more than 500 people, strengthened and rebuilt the castle, and set up checkpoints on the main roads and steep places, forming a key place that could be attacked and defended. The fine wine produced here attracts merchants from all over the world. It has also become a resting place for various caravans in the Great Song Dynasty, and it has also become a gathering place for the task force after completing its mission.

Due to the frequent caravans coming and going, the entry of the task force did not attract much attention, and coupled with the deliberate cover-up of the lord, no one could have imagined that the 'knights' who had stirred up the country of Murayi were hiding here. And it was only under their search and response that the sniper team was able to get out and escape the search and capture of the Murayi Kingdom.

"Lord Xue, it's quite comfortable to live here!" 'Marquis of Bostan' Humar said respectfully, he knew that he was the number one in the castle, but in front of the person in front of him, not to mention that he was just a bought fake marquis, even the real marquis of the Great Song Dynasty was also respectful in front of him. No one dares to be presumptuous.

"Yes, the brothers are very satisfied, especially your wine here!" Xue Hai pointed to the people around him and said with a smile.

"It's good that everybody is happy, there's nothing else here. You can still drink as much as you want! Humar also said with a smile on his face, but his expression was still a little unnatural, and he always had a very depressed feeling in front of these people.

"Huh. I'm afraid that when I go back, you will ask me for money for wine. At that time, even if I sold my wife and children, I am afraid that it will not be worth the wine money these days! Xue Hai said with a laugh.

"Don't dare, don't dare. The Great Treasurer was very indignant that the Murayi Kingdom had sent assassins to assassinate His Majesty, and he was eager to slaughter them all with his own hands. And the order has already been issued, as long as the assassins can be eliminated, not to mention just some drinks, but everything that needs to be supplied, if the villain's head is useful, the adults can take it! Humar arched his hand again and said, he knew that the big boss of the caravan was the emperor, and their big shopkeeper also had the right talent with today's status and wealth, of course, unconditional support.

"What do I want your head to do, and I can't change it for wine, but I have written down your credit, and the benefits are indispensable to you!" Xue Hai said, "What is the situation outside now, can you find out clearly?" ”

"Oh, my lord, the little one is here to report this to you!" Humar stepped forward and poured Xue Hai full of wine and said, the name of the ruthless iron hand has been called more than twenty years ago, and he is also very kind to himself, but he still does not dare to have the slightest disrespect, "According to the report of the cousins, the Sheikh of the Murazi Kingdom has basically quelled the civil strife, and the decent people are sent to investigate, they may suspect that we are from the Great Song Dynasty, and they are very strict with the Great Song caravans passing through their territory, and they have found the lords who have dealings with the Song Dynasty to inquire about the situation!" ”

"Well, they have very smart noses! Did you send someone here to ask? Xue Hai nodded and asked rhetorically.

"Don't worry, my lord, even if they come to the door, they don't dare to be too presumptuous, besides, you and you are here in the name of Western Xia, how can they distinguish it, I'm afraid they haven't even figured out what my Great Song people look like!" Humar patted his chest and reassured.

"Hmph, they know what our Great Song Dynasty has done, the small country dares to touch our tiger whiskers and plot to assassinate Your Majesty, our next step is to let them know the price they should pay!" Xue Hai drank the red wine and said coldly.

"Big ...... My lord, do you still have to take action? Humar looked at the residual wine hanging on the corner of Xue Hai's mouth, coupled with his hideous face and the murderous aura emanating from his body, like a Shura from hell, and couldn't help but shiver and said.

"Yes, the previous actions were all to hide our identities, and now it's time to make a statement!" Xue Hai looked at Humar and said.

"Okay, the little one must fully cooperate with the actions of the adults!" Humar said, but he was secretly frightened, their previous actions can be said to have caused great losses to the Murayi people, it is said that the emperor is safe and sound, so it can be regarded as revenge, but these people still refuse to give up, it seems that offending the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty will be hunted down to the end even if he is far away from the world, which is even more terrifying than the Murayi people.

"What is the reaction of the surrounding countries now?" Xue Hai asked with a slight expression.

"My lord, since the last operation, although the surrounding countries have not said anything on the face, they secretly claim to be fast, hoping to completely eradicate the Murayi country. Now that some lords have changed their attitude towards the Murayi people, they no longer send tribute on time, and their requirements are also perfunctory, and I heard that some lords have secretly contacted and want to attack the Murayi country while they are weak, do I send someone to get in touch with them? Humar said.

"This is good news, it seems to be in line with the old saying that 'the sins of heaven are forgivable, but the sins of people cannot live', the people of Murayi have done too much evil, which has caused public outrage, and what is missing is just an opportunity, we will give them a fire again, and let them shed their skin if they don't die. However, for the sake of safety, you still have to pay tribute on time, and don't have contact with those who resist, but you can secretly spread some news, just say that the Great Song Emperor will punish the perverse Murayi people for Tianxingdao! Xue Hai said with a deep groan.

"Thank you for your concern, these small things will definitely be done!" Humar secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, after all, he was permanently stationed here, and the task force would have to withdraw after completing its mission, and if the evil was eradicated, those Murayi people who had suffered a great loss would definitely come to find trouble for themselves.

"No, there's something you need help with!" Xue Hai waved his hand and said, as an old intelligence officer, he naturally knew how difficult it was to run a secret stronghold abroad, especially this kind of comprehensive intelligence station with legal identity and scale, and it would be even more meaningful for them to continue to hide.

"My lord, if you have a drive, just command!" Humar saluted again.

"First, you helped us find two guides who were familiar with the Alamut region; Second, help us deliver some things to the designated place; Third, collect meteorological data in the autumn and winter seasons of the Alamut region of the Murayi country and reply to us as soon as possible; Then there is the recent activities of the Murayi people. Xue Hai thought for a while and said.

"Adults can rest assured, small ones will arrange reliable people to do it, and return as soon as possible!" Humar replied happily, but hesitated again and said, "My lord, did you want to attack the 'eagle's nest' when you collected the information about Alamut? ”

"You kid is not stupid, you can guess our next target, but you must not reveal it to the second person, otherwise you will know the consequences!" Xue Hai said with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.

"The villain will never confide in anyone, but the terrain of the Alamut Fort is steep, it is said that only eagles can fly up, it is the residence of the Sheikh of the Murayi Kingdom, where the fortification must be tight, it is really not easy to go up, and the legend has it that the Sheikh has always lived in a shallow way, rarely out of his room, and it is very difficult to snipe him!" Realizing that the next move of the task force would be against Sheikh Umid of the Murayi Kingdom, Humar knew that the task force was full of special skills, but he still sweated at their bold actions and couldn't help but remind.

"The Murayi people assassinated Your Majesty, Umid is the first evil, he must die to atone for his sins, this is also a warning to all those who commit my Great Song Longwei, even if they hide in hell, they will be punished!" Xue Hai Zhengse said...... (To be continued......)
