Chapter 14: The Alliance

As the sun like salted egg yolk gradually fell in the west, the morning glow dissipated on the horizon, the twilight gradually thickened, the time had reached night, the night was dark overhead, the bright moon was hanging high, but the whole city below was still brightly lit, the people were boiling, and the people in the city did not seem to be affected by the change of day and night.

Gu Xuan was wearing a casual suit, his hands behind his back, his hair was meticulously combed, he stood on top of the city tower with a flat face, looking into the distance, his eyes revealed a sense of vicissitudes that did not match his face, and there was a fierce general holding a sword as an attendant next to him, it was Jinglong who had followed him from the capital to the present.

Today is the time he agreed with Mr. Lu Yi before, tonight, the six medium-sized tribes of the Rakshasa clan will come to Huangsha County to participate in the alliance and talk about Zhao'an, and Mr. who has been gone for three days will also come back tonight.

Gu Xuan stood steadily on the carriageway of the city wall, facing the city, with his back to the sea of sand that had been completely shrouded in darkness to the north, he looked at the noisy market below, watching the people coming and going, always smiling.

There, there are shoulder baskets, walking the streets and alleys selling some snacks and suppers hawkers, some are prepared in advance, there are also ready-made noodles, or shake the Lantern Festival, dip the sugar cubes in water, put them in a dustpan full of flour and shake them, and after a while they become an intoxicating round ball, and the most sweet to eat at night, there are already confused looks, drunk like mud, supported by their companions, and still shouting some words of unknown meaning loudly, mostly broad, and also shouting women's names, and there are more smiling and smiling girls, wearing red and green, flirting with guests, and not shying away。

The most reassuring thing is that this is a city that completely belongs to him Gu Xuan.

He squinted his eyes and whispered, "What a wonderful scenery!"

Jinglong, who was standing next to him, was born tall and big, and was hindered by the knot of his heart for twenty years, he couldn't eat or sleep in the capital, so his body was very thin, and then with Gu Xuan came to Huangsha County, after untying the knot in his heart, his body was naturally slowly regaining its original strength, he was wearing a full body armor at the moment, holding a broadsword and standing behind Gu Xuan, just like a high wall full of spikes, a strong power that resisted the enemy thousands of miles away, naturally spread.

"Lord Wang, why do you want to recruit the Rakshasa clan, with all due respect, as long as there are border troops, they will not dare to cross the thunder pool by half a step! Now we want to deal with these black-faced ghosts, which really makes our subordinates feel uneasy. ”

In his Jinglong opinion, his own prince would have to go back to the capital sooner or later, and it was meaningless to do these things of the Rakshasa clan in Zhao'an, or he didn't care about what it would bring or change at all.

A pure martial artist, where would he think about so many long-term things.

Gu Xuan heard it, but he didn't look back, just silently looked at the brilliant lights in the distance, the world was all kinds of things, and then said in an extremely flat tone, like that, it didn't seem like answering Jinglong's question, but more like talking to himself.

"What can be solved with a mouth, a few boxes of silk and tea, why fight with the lives of soldiers?"

Jinglong showed a face full of embarrassment, especially puzzled, he had always been very close to Gu Xuan, and said very bluntly: "But these black-faced ghosts, all capricious, are completely alien, the saints have to shake their heads when they see it, why take the hard-earned money of the people to buy these foreign enemies?"

Gu Xuan turned his head slowly, quietly looking at the person in front of him, there was no emotional fluctuation in his eyes, neither anger, nor blame, but when Jinglong saw it, he still lowered his head deeply.

"The subordinates accidentally offended the prince with their words, and asked the prince to forgive him!"

Gu Xuan turned his whole body around, but he was still holding one hand behind his back, only stretched out his right hand, and gently raised it forward: " Get up, Uncle Jinglong, I'm not blaming you, it's just that if you keep thinking about the gains and losses of a family, it is difficult to achieve great things, this matter is the same as doing business, the more you invest, the more you will return, as long as the Rakshasa clan agrees to recruit an to surrender, after that, I Da Liang will be able to free up my hands to do more things, the sand sea is stable, our army can spare the Qilian natural danger, drive straight in, and go straight to the inner belly of the country, as for whether they are repeated, if the south is unified in the future, such a little people, they can't afford to turn up any big storms. ”

Jinglong lowered his head, clenched his fists and said loudly: "The prince is wise!"

-----------------------------------------

There are many Rakshasa tribes in the sand sea, according to the specifications and specific development of each tribe, a total of three can be divided into three classes, as the most superior, the most transcendent existence, there are only three large tribes, namely greedy wolves, ghost vultures, poisonous scorpions, the totems of these three tribes, but also symbolize the three top predators in the desert, but also in the legend of the Rakshasa tribe, the only Allah who is the most merciful and merciful, the creator of all things, the three closest servants, from this point, it is enough to see the status of the three tribes in Brana.

These three tribes have stood in the sand sea for many years, often raiding the border, amassing a lot of wealth, and their internal and ordinary small human countries are actually not much different, and have long been out of the ignorant and low-level categories of other similar kinds.

The three major tribes enjoy the worship from the other tribes of the entire Brahmana tribe, and the warriors that can be called upon within each of their tribes are all ten thousand and strong, and ordinary people dare not move easily, even the Daliang border army has never thought of directly attacking their base camp, let alone others.

After hundreds of years of painstaking management, they have accumulated enough materials, the whole clan basically does not worry about food and clothing, very rich, and the life of the Rakshasa clan at the bottom has an essential difference, those small tribes of the Rakshasa tribe, may still be eating raw meat because they can't make a fire, but they have already lived in luxurious cowhide tents, wearing exquisite clothes snatched from outside or officially bought, will use silver plates to load exquisite food, and even some people will learn to drink tea in their spare time.

As for the small tribes that are still as rude as beasts, and the large tribes that have been learning and transforming in the direction of the surrounding Terran empire, there are the six famous middle tribes.

In the entire Borana Sand Sea, the division of power of the Brahmana tribe is like this, although the Sand Sea is large, the places where people can really live are also very limited, as for those small tribes, the number is generally not more than 100, which is useless in the overall situation, so there is no need to mention more.

On the surface, the six medium-sized tribes also belong to the "vassals" under the three major tribes, and they have to pay them a large number of offerings and slaves on a regular basis every year, and they are divided according to the strength of their respective forces, and the tribal names, that is, the totems that their entire tribe believes, are goshawks, vipers, dire lizards, sand foxes, blood bats, and squirrels.

As the medium-sized tribe ranked first in strength, the gap between the goshawk tribe and the three major tribes in all aspects of ability is actually not too big, and the goshawk tribe has also established a complete city-state in the oasis, which is completely different from the down-and-out appearance of the viper tribe that still lives together in simple shacks.

Therefore, the people of the goshawk tribe are also the most arrogant among them, even if Lu Yi is the goshawk tribe who only brought the envoys sent by the five medium-sized tribes to visit together, they only sent a chief's son to lead someone to talk first, and this person is actually not the successor of the first line of succession in the clan.

The goshawk tribe also has the most people coming this time, there are hundreds of guards, and the equipment is very well-equipped, obviously it is also the elite of the clan, the center of the team is a fat man of the Rakshasa tribe with a big belly, this is the second son of their chief, named Ashina, this person is no different from a black-skinned boar from the appearance alone, that bloated appearance, at least there must be a weight of three hundred pounds, the outside is draped in a soft silk robe, the flesh on the body is piled up layer by layer, and there is a tangled hair on the chest, which looks extremely disgusting。

Because of his astonishing weight, he was not even on a horse, after all, ordinary horses could not move him at all, but he sat in a carriage with no walls on all sides, only a canopy in the middle, and he brought it here by the joint efforts of four horses.

Ashina sat in the carriage, his thick legs were crossed together, and he was holding a woman in his arms, the poor man leaned on Ashina's chest weakly, and his body was not an inch, allowing his white flesh to be exposed in stripes, the woman looked very young, it should not be more than sixteen years old, and her whole body was as white as an iceberg snow lotus, covered with scarlet whip marks and finger prints that had been abused, and on her right thigh, she was also burned by a shameful "slave" The word is the language of the human race, and the whole person is held in his arms, and it seems that he has completely given up resistance, and the white in his eyes is no longer black, and he seems to have no life anymore.

Such a fragrant scene, the warriors from the goshawk tribe next to them didn't even dare to look at it at all.

As for the person from the second-ranked Viper tribe next to the Goshawk Tribe, it was naturally Adagon, he was the one who had surrendered to this side with all his heart, and now he was naturally silently following behind Lu Yi, occasionally looking at the black fat man over there, with a face full of disdain.

Although the Viper tribe is not rich in the clan, it can even be said to be a little barren, but it is like this, it can still rank second, it is completely dependent on the force of the warriors in the clan, so they are the most worshipping of the strong, like Ashina, who is fat, it is difficult to stand up, and he has never been on the battlefield, of course he looks down on it.

Ashina over there also seemed to notice the gaze next to him, turned his head without flinching, and glanced at Adagon, his eyes were also full of contempt and disdain.

is also a Rakshasa clan, but in his opinion, the other party is a low-level worm.

However, he was not stupid enough to fall out with the other party here because of a contemptuous look, after all, the Viper tribe also brought a hundred guards here.

As for the other four medium-sized tribes, they also sent their own messengers, among which there were many people sent by Dire Lizard, Sand Fox and Blood Bat, but there were not many warriors, they were all some people in the tribe who traveled between the two places and could barely understand part of the Liangguo dialect, they all accompanied the chief's son and daughter, but the last squirrel, but the last one came to the tribal chief who was still in power, named Strour, a gray-haired old man, and he brought the least number of people this time, but only a dozen guards.

The most interesting thing is that although the Rat Tribe is ranked last, it stands to reason that they should be the closest to those small tribes that drink blood, but the appearance of these guards who come out of their clan is the most peaceful among the six tribes, without the kind of fierce and vicious temperament that they should have.
