Chapter 52: The Storm Rises Again

After a moment's hesitation, Merlin ended the communication, dissolved the meeting, and went to see Bi again.

After listening to Merlin's words, Bi Zaiyu frowned and said: "I'm afraid this thing is difficult to do, privately dismantling the tribute, this is the crime of deceiving the king!" ”

Merlin said: "I also know this, but except for this first horse thief in the Western Regions, the other horse thieves are absolutely not capable of preparing a hundred carts and grain in a short time." ”

Bi Zaiyu pondered for a long time, hit the palm of his left hand with his right fist, and said categorically: "You tell him that one hundred and fifty carts are accompanied by grain and grass, each cart is equipped with two pack horses, five hundred strong bows, and one hundred thousand feather arrows. Jewels and jade can be given to him first, but the sword and bow must be given to him after the big chariot feather arrows are in hand. ”

After listening to Bi Zaiyu's words, Merlin glanced at the other party with some concern, he knew that the other party was preparing to repay the debt.

Jewelry and jade are not unique, for example, there are ten pairs of jade in the gift list, and one pair is missing, so they can prevaricate with an excuse, but the sword and bow that Bai Qi asked for are all unique things, and if they are lost, it is difficult to explain.

However, Merlin didn't say much, he said goodbye and left the camp of Bi Zaiyu, and contacted Bai Qi again.

Bai Qi listened to the other party's request, and immediately understood that the other party would never hand over the sword and bow to him, but this was also in his expectation, the difficulty of the task required for a first-level professional to be promoted to a second-level professional and the difficulty of the task required for a second-level professional to be promoted to a third-level professional were of course not the same.

Bai Qi thought about it for a moment and agreed to Merlin's request.

And Bai Qi's cheerfulness also made Merlin even more worried, he knew that he would wait until the moment the deal was completed. It is the moment when they become enemies.

Bi Zaiyu sent Merlin away, and immediately went to see the main owner of this envoy group. Lu Chengen, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, is also an envoy of this envoy group.

On the Golden Temple that day. The emperor asked who was willing to send an envoy to Mongolia, and the ministers were silent, only this Lu Chengen answered the order loudly.

This person dares to take on this errand of nine deaths and a lifetime, of course, he is not an ordinary person.

After listening to Bi Zaiyu's Jianyi, Lu Chengen agreed without thinking about it for too long, exchanging a few inconsequential tributes for a batch of such important materials, which he still has the vision and responsibility.

Ending the call with Merlin, Bai Qi immediately contacted the captain. Let him raise the requirements for grain and carts to one hundred and fifty vehicles, as for the strong bow and feather arrows, he did not mention that the Tanguts would never sell him such strategic materials in large quantities.

Bai Qi killed the two horse thieves of Huang Mazi and Golden Harrier in a row during this time, and it was not a problem to take out five hundred strong bows, although the feather arrows were not enough, they were not much different.

Bai Qi recruited more than a dozen reliable horse thief leaders and asked them to take a group of brothers to drive hundreds of eliminated war horses and a group of surplus blades captured from the horse thieves. Split up and sell them in a few nearby market towns, and then buy the best feather arrows and crossbow arrows on the spot.

Although Bai Qi saw that the other party did not intend to fulfill the contract, he still did not spare any effort to strengthen the strength of the Great Song envoys, according to Bai Qi's plan. The Great Song Dynasty envoys and the Tianshan faction fought against each other, and the final result was best that after both sides were defeated, the Great Song Dynasty envoys could win a miserable victory.

As a land snake. Even if the Tianshan faction suffered heavy losses, they would easily get support. And hidden, but the Great Song envoys, who were outsiders, did not have this condition.

After the three captains sent the war horses and armor to the Western Xia military. The other party was really overjoyed, and immediately agreed to the captain's request, but one hundred and fifty carts of grain and grass was not a small amount, and it would take them a few days to mobilize.

The two sides agreed on a date for the delivery of the grain, and the captain reported the news to Bai Qi, who ordered them to return to the lair.

After recalling the captain, Bai Qi summoned Adrian, who was in charge of monitoring the Liangcheng royal family, back, leaving only Huang Mao alone to continue monitoring.

After another two days, Bai Qi ordered Wang Ye to take one hundred of his own cronies and brothers, and sent him another two hundred men, and he also equipped these three hundred men with good strong bows and a large number of high-quality feather arrows, so that they could follow Wang Ye to Western Xia to escort back one hundred and fifty carts of grain.

After Wang Ye set off, Bai Qi immediately ordered Adrian to follow him.

After that, Bai Qi ordered Qin Qing and Heinrich to take a hundred horse thieves to escort two hundred strong bows and nearly 100,000 arrows to wait for the Great Song envoys outside a mountain pass in Kunlun Mountain.

When the Great Song envoys climbed the Kunlun Mountains from the mountain pass that Bai Qi had expected, the convoy escorted by Wang Ye was still two days away from that vicinity.

The Great Song envoys who had crossed the Kunlun Mountains did not leave the mountains, they set up camp in the valley at the foot of the mountain, and they would never enter the desert next door with unfavorable terrain until the cart arrived.

After getting in touch with Bai Qi, the two sides agreed on a location, and Merlin sent someone to send the three transfer mission items needed by Qin Qing and the three of them to Qin Qing's camp.

When the things were in hand, Qin Qing ordered his subordinates to throw down the cart transporting the goods and retreat quickly.

Bai Qi told him the approximate location of the cart escorted by King Merlin, and told the other party that the bows and arrows that the three hundred horse thieves carried with him, and the war horses he rode were all gifts he gave to the other party.

For Bai Qi's generosity, Merlin became more and more uneasy in his heart, but these gifts were undoubtedly what they urgently needed, so they couldn't do without them.

According to the information provided by Bai Qi, Merlin took all the space warriors out of the brigade and entered the wasteland, sending a large number of Darkwalkers to search for the food team escorted by the Black Hawk Thieves.

They quickly locked down Wang Ye's team and set up an ambush in his path.

The result of the battle was naturally self-evident, more than three hundred space warriors who were at least first-level professionals ambushed three hundred ordinary horse thieves, it was as easy as pie, Wang Ye was killed on the spot, and the black eagle thieves who followed him only escaped less than ten people.

After the convoy was seized, Bai Qi contacted Merlin, who turned off the communication.

The news that the Great Song envoys had robbed the Black Eagle's one hundred and fifty carts of grain spread far and wide, and this news made the leaders of the horse thieves such as the Black Wolf who had been eyeing the Great Song Dynasty envoys almost spurt out a mouthful of blood.

Of course, these old horse thieves who have been crisscrossing the Western Regions for more than ten years can see that the combat effectiveness of the Great Song Dynasty envoys, which have 150 carts, will definitely increase significantly.

The Tianshan faction hidden in the shadows also gritted their teeth at Bai Qi.

However, after this incident, Bai Qi immediately retracted with all his strength, recalled all the hands to the old nest, and became a turtle with a shrunken head, and at this critical time, neither the Tianshan faction nor the horse thieves had time to deal with him.

Although the Great Song envoys unexpectedly obtained one hundred and fifty carts and sufficient grain, grass and horses, neither the Tianshan faction nor the horse thieves were deterred.

With the efforts of the black wolf and the golden scorpion, nearly three thousand horse thieves gathered in Moon Lake again.

The Five Hundred Heavenly Mountain Iron Riders also quietly appeared in Liangcheng. (To be continued......)
