Chapter 300: Night Attack
Coincidentally, Liu Bang is too, and even more.
Ignoring Liu Dating's somewhat scoundrel habits, he is really a very amiable person.
He has a bold temperament, is righteous, and is arrogant and informal. When he was in Surabaya, he could already see some clues, and the people he befriended, from the important officials of a county, such as the chief official Peng Xiaohe and others, down to the pawns of peddlers, and the generation of people who killed pigs and dogs, such as Fan Hao and others, such as Fan Xu and others, such as people with disparities in status and different personalities and temperaments, could gather around him.
Could it be that it is because of the admiration of his rogue temperament?
And the appearance of this product is also a big plus. "Long's accurate and dragon-faced, beautiful beard" is very in line with the appearance of the nobles of this era. Therefore, once this product is serious, it is really quite majestic.
"There is a country of Laokumo to greet you-"
Liu Bang laughed and stepped forward to grab the big hand of the Prime Minister of Qiuzi, Kumarosh, and affectionately grabbed the other party's big hairy hand.
"I've long heard of the name of the country of Kuma, and it is said outside that the country of Kuma is outstanding, and it is a rare talent in the country of Guizi for hundreds of years, and it is even relied on by the king of your country, and I have long had the heart to get acquainted, but it is a pity that I can't see each other, and today I finally met the real person——"
Liu Bang stared at Kumarosh's eyes, as if he had finally seen an idol, his expression was natural, his tone was sincere, and he spoke as if it were true. It was rare to meet an official from the Western Regions who could speak Guanzhong, and Liu Bang naturally took the words.
In fact, from this point alone, he is really more suitable than Zhang Han to be this envoy.
Kumarosh's smile almost froze on his face, and he was stunned for a moment before he said with a dry smile.
"Your envoy praised it falsely, just a small name, but I didn't expect it to enter the ears of your envoy......"
Before Liu Bang could react, where the problem was, he felt that someone behind him was secretly pulling his clothes, and stopped quietly.
The little prince of Loulan, who is proficient in the Chinese languages of the Western Regions, understood in his heart, stepped forward, attached it to his ear, and reminded him softly.
"Kumarosh, surname Kumaro, name Shi......"
Liu:......
scolded in my heart, what kind of bullshit name is this, four words, three words are surnames, and it is really an uneducated and uneducated Fanbang savage. However, the smile on his face was even brighter, and he quietly changed his name.
"Brother Kumaro, we hit it off at first sight, don't call it a noble minister, it seems too polite, how about calling me a brother, you call me Brother Liu, I call you Brother Kumoro......"
Kumarosh: ......
How did it hit it off at first sight.
But fortunately, this time I finally got my last name right.
Kumarosh personally greeted him, originally to eliminate the hostility of Great Qin, so he changed his name quietly.
"Brother Liu, please-"
When Liu Bang heard this, he couldn't help laughing, stepped forward again, grabbed Kumarosh's arm, and the two of them affectionately held hands like long-lost brothers, boarded the carriage specially prepared by Qiuzi, and headed for the city.
"Brother Kumora, on behalf of my Majesty Great Qin, we are here with the friendship of the two countries, where are you going to take me now, why don't you take me to meet the king of your country......
Finding that after entering the city, the carriage did not go in the direction of the palace, Liu Bang couldn't help but look at the prime minister of the country of Qiuzi, who was playing with him there.
Hearing Liu Bang's accountability, Kumarosh let go of Liu Bang's arm apologetically and gave a deep salute.
"Brother Liu is angry, it's not that my king doesn't dare to meet you, but my king has occasionally felt unwell these days and is recuperating in the palace, so it's really not suitable to meet distinguished guests - please Brother Liu be calm and stay here, so that my brother can enjoy the friendship of the landlord......"
Liu Bang turned his anger into joy and said with a smile.
"I see, but I'm rude—"
Speaking of this, Liu Bang took Kumarosh's hand and quietly stuffed a few huge pearls.
These beads were the fine products he found in the treasury of Yanqi, and he kept them privately, and he wanted to go back and give them to his daughter-in-law, but today in order to confuse his opponent, he gave them to this Kumarosh Xiangguo.
"It's just that brother, after all, I came to intersect with your country on behalf of His Majesty my family, and it is not appropriate to wait here for a long time, and I ask Kumara to bother more, so that I can complete the task as soon as possible and go back to my life......"
Kumarosh wanted to excuse himself, but he saw Liu Bang's angry eyes, and he could only quietly put the beads into his arms.
"Brother Liu said that after I go back, I will definitely promote this matter as soon as possible......"
Perhaps because he had just received a few extremely precious pearls, the smile on his face was a little sincere.
Liu Bang was overjoyed.
The two of them, each with a ghost, are as hot as brothers.
Kumarosh personally sent it to the post house, and recruited the official in charge of the post house, personally told him for a long time, sat and accompanied Liu Bang and Zhang Han and others to talk for a long time, and then got up to say goodbye.
Liu Bang personally sent it to the post house, and the two of them, seeing each other late, held hands, and said goodbye for a long time, seeing that the sky was getting dark, it was over.
"Brother Liu, amazing!"
As soon as Kumarosh left, as soon as Liu Bang returned to the post house, Zhang Han couldn't help but give Liu Bang a thumbs up. There is one thing to say, if you change yourself, it is better to let yourself go to the battlefield and cut people with nonsense like Kumarosh staring at him.
Liu Bang laughed.
"Let Brother Zhang see and laugh, I'm a straightforward person, and I'm used to it, I've always liked to make friends with true temperament, and the most headache is dealing with this kind of person - I knew it earlier, I can't say anything to be this ...... for you"
Liu Bang was crying bitterly there, and Zhang Han couldn't help laughing.
Waiting for Zhang Han's laughter to subside, Liu Bang, who was crookedly leaning on the collapse, said lazily.
"I see that this Guizi country is already ready to take refuge in Wusun, there is nothing to talk about, let's do it as soon as possible!"
When Zhang Han heard this, he also restrained his smile.
"So, without further ado, tonight!"
The two of them made a decision, and the matter was settled.
That night, the envoy of the Qin State made people buy a lot of local wine, a group of people gathered in the courtyard, directly barbecued in the open air, ate and drank, and even recruited some local singers, where they sang and danced, and the noisy sound was far away in the night.
King Qiuzi's Palace.
It is said to be a royal palace, but it is just some low courtyards, and occasionally you can see various tents, mixed in between.
At this time, the fat Xiangguo Kumarosh no longer had the exaggerated and slippery smile on his face, and he sat on his knees, kneeling in front of the lord of the country of Qiuzi, carefully listening to the meticulous reports of the officials below.
"It seems that this Liu Ji, as the legend says, is a greedy and lustful straw bale......"
The Lord of the Kingdom of Guizi breathed a sigh of relief.
"This is the best, we don't have to worry about falling out with Qiang Qin, we just need good wine and good food, dancing girls and singers are in charge, and we can send some money to fool things over......"
Kumarosh shook his head with a heavy face.
"I'm afraid it's not that simple - that Liu Ji doesn't look like a simple character......"
The Lord of the Turtle Kingdom smiled and waved his hand.
"Xiangguo is too worried, even if they are not simple, now that they are here in us, they are like fish belly slaughtered on the knife board, is it possible that they dare to turn their faces directly against us?"
Speaking of this, the voice of the Lord of the Turtle Country turned cold.
"Although the Wusun people are also insatiable, bent on exploiting and enslaving us, it is not a good thing, but the lesser of two evils, the Wusun people will exploit us at most, and Daqin will destroy our society - now, not to mention it, you can say that Loulan and the Cheshi, what are they like now? The royal family has long since died in name only......"
"The envoys of Great Qin are not useless, just use them to put pressure on the Wusun people, let them know that we don't have to choose them, if they don't agree to our conditions-"
Speaking of this, the Lord of the Turtle Kingdom narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Tomorrow, in my name, you will go to comfort the envoy of Great Qin......"
"Your Majesty, Gao Ming!"
Kumarosh bowed down and received the command.
After the two of them discussed it, there was nothing to worry about. However, even so, knowing that the Qin people couldn't make any trouble, Kumarosh had always been cautious, and he still held his hand steady, letting people secretly stare at the movements of the Qin people, and then went to rest with peace of mind.
In this regard, Liu Bang and Zhang Han were unconscious, and continued to make bonfires and continue to have fun.
However, fortunately, they still knew that they were in their mission, and they didn't dare to stay with the singers and dancers, so they sent them away when they arrived, but the wine was really drunk late, and it was not until about the hour that the bonfire was slowly extinguished.
The people also scattered one after another.
The camp of the Qin people soon became pitch black, and even the guards who were on patrol outside had already begun to squat in front of the embers of the bonfire, holding Changge in their hands, and began to nap.
Qiuzi here, unlike the Central Plains, the temperature difference between day and night is very large, this season, although it has just entered September, but at night, it has reached the point where you need to wear a leather jacket.
The official who was in charge of secretly watching the movements of the Qin people watched the Qin people roasting the bonfire, singing and dancing, eating and drinking, but he was hiding in the dark, sleepy, cold and hungry, and he didn't know how much resentment he had accumulated.
At this time, seeing that the Qin people had no movement, they could still hold there, so they found a tent and went in to rest.
"Kumarosh's order is simply sick, those Qin people, but more than sixty people, even if they don't care, what kind of storm can they set off? Take the chicken feather as an arrow, and act majestic in front of Lao Tzu - sleep! ”
The camp of the Qin people.
Zhang Han sat in armor, with a horizontal sword on his knees, sitting opposite Liu Bang, closing his eyes and pretending to sleep, up and down his body, where is there still a little bit of alcohol?
They bought a lot of alcohol, but they didn't really drink it, and even if they did, they didn't really drink it. In this situation, drunk, what a big heart-
Now Zhang Han doesn't have such a big heart, and Liu Bang doesn't have either.
The others also quietly changed into armor in secret, closing their eyes one by one to recuperate.
The carnival of the Qin people was already going on late, and for the Qiuzi people who were used to going to bed early, it was tantamount to a kind of torment.
Except for a few fishy torches stuck in the doorway, the entire camp had fallen silent.
At this moment, Zhang Han and Liu Ji opened their eyes one after another and clenched the long knife in their hands.
"Let's—"
Soon, a team of more than 50 people quietly left the camp in the dark.
Outside the camp, the guards holding Changge and touching the fish are still the same, and they don't seem to have changed from just now.
In order to avoid a conflict between the Qin and the envoys from Wusun, Kumarosh deliberately separated the two when arranging accommodation, one in the south and the other in the north, without interfering with each other.
At this time, the tents of the Wusun people had already become black.
What if the Great Qin envoy comes?
It's just a last-ditch struggle.
As for the envoys of Great Qin, will they have a conflict with them?
That's a joke!
How many people are there in Daqin?
Fifty or sixty people!
And Wusun's envoys, there are more than 150 guards alone!
If you don't provoke them, it's already the restraint of the Wusun people.
Besides, this is not in front of the two armies, but in the capital of Qiuzi, everyone is not a soldier, but an envoy representing their respective courts, how can anyone directly use a knife......
Therefore, although they knew that there was another wave of envoys from Great Qin today, led by Liu Ji, who seemed to have been in the limelight in the Western Regions recently, they didn't take it to heart.
After a few days, the letter of state was officially signed with the lord of Qiuzi, and those Qin people did not come from anywhere, and where did they go.
This Western Regions is, after all, the Western Regions of the Western Regions, not the Western Regions of the Qin people!
This thought continued until the sound of murder outside began to shine into their tent.
"Kill, don't talk about killing, Your Majesty has an order, don't let go of a Wusun envoy!"
In the dark night, in the firelight, which was getting brighter and brighter, accompanied by the miserable cries from time to time, a loud voice faintly reached the ears of the Wusun envoy.
Their hearts were suddenly shocked, and the first thought that flashed through them was.
The Qiuzi people have changed their minds!
The firelight was getting closer and closer, and the tongue of fire in the tent in the distance had begun to spread towards the central area, and it was too late to think about it, the Wusun envoy didn't even have time to put on his robe, so he directly reached out and touched the scimitar placed on the pillow, and turned over.
"Quick, kill me out!"
Soon, there were twenty or thirty Wusun warriors holding scimitars around him, but at this time, these Wusun warriors were all disheveled, with panic on their faces.
In the dark night, I only heard the deafening shouts of killing, and I couldn't see how many people from the other party came.
In particular, there were still people there who spoke the authentic Qiuci language, shouting and directing the attack, which made them more and more panicked in their hearts, and they thought that Qiuci and the Qin people had joined forces to attack and kill them at night.
Immediately, he was in a state of confusion, and he didn't care about anything else, just thinking about breaking out of the encirclement.
Go back to the royal court, go back to Wusun, and report to the king.
Tell the king what happened here!
