The camp of the Harrier Eagle Rider is ten miles west of the state city of Swift Prefecture.

Dongfang Ping took more than a dozen personal guards, and together with the messenger who reported the news, he rushed directly to the outside of the camp of the Harrier Eagle Rider.

As soon as he arrived at the camp, someone immediately greeted him, "Your Highness! You're here! My general is dying! Check it out! ”

Dongfang Ping immediately turned over and dismounted, and hurriedly trotted to the big tent of the Chinese army with his personal guards.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, the front is still a familiar place of discussion, Dongfang Ping bypassed the screen and came to the back of the tent.

I saw that in the harrier eagle ride, several commanders stood nervously in front of the bed behind the tent.

On the bed, Murong Long, who was once alive and well, was wrapped in a brocade quilt, lying in the thick smell of medicine, his face was pale, his eyes were slightly closed, and his breath was like a gossamer.

Seeing this, Dongfang Ping stepped forward quickly, anxiously and worriedly grabbed Murong Longlu's hand outside the brocade quilt and said, "General, what's wrong with you?!" ”

Murong Long opened his eyes weakly, looked at Dongfang Ping, and smiled bitterly, "I'm used to seeing strong winds and waves, and I never thought that the boat capsized in the gutter, Your Highness, I'm sorry." ”

Dongfang Ping shook his head again and again, "Your Highness, don't worry, I have already invited the city chapter divine doctor to come over, and the arrow poison will be cured soon!" ”

"It's useless, my family knows my own affairs, and I know what is going on with my body."

Murong Long laughed miserably, looked up at the top of the military tent, and his tiger eyes were full of tears, "I think my Murong family has a dragon, a tiger and a leopard, and the younger generation with the seven surnames of Daliang, now that the leopard is dead and the tiger is dead, I will die soon." When also? Fate? ”

He pulled out his palm from Dongfang Ping's hand, stretched out his hand to look at the sky, and shouted weakly and madly: "I am conceited and talented, whether it is fighting in battle or governing the country and the people, I have all my strengths, and I can make meritorious contributions, but who expected to die here, the sky!" How can you be so unjust! ”

Dongfang Ping opened his mouth to persuade: "General, don't be so sad, now that the situation is undecided, you will be fine!" ”

Murong Long raised his head and looked at Dongfang Ping with difficulty, "Your Highness, I'm sorry for you!" ”

Dongfang Ping's heart was alarmed, but before he could make a move, the two commanders standing closest to the head of the bed pulled out the dagger hidden in his sleeve with lightning speed and put it on Dongfang Ping's neck.

Dongfang was shocked, but one of them used a dagger with a slight force, and the sharp blade cut an extremely shallow thin blood mark on his neck, "Your Highness, don't move, the sword has no eyes!" ”

Seeing this situation, the two guards who followed Dongfang Ping in the rear did not dare to move, and were quickly subdued by Murong Long's personal guards.

Feeling the pain in his neck, Dongfang Ping didn't dare to move, and looked at Murong Long with a shocked face, "General? This is? ”

Murong Long lifted the quilt and got up slowly, his movements were so swift that he looked like he was half injured and died.

"Your Highness! I'm sorry, although you and I hate to see each other late, but after all, each is its own master! ”

He looked at Dongfang Ping, who didn't dare to move, "There's no way, Lieyang Pass and Phoenix City are too important to the imperial court, in order to recover these two cities, I can only grieve Your Highness." ”

Dongfang Ping looked shocked, and hurriedly said: "General, why do you have to be like this, Xiao Wang's loyalty to your country can be learned by the sun and the moon!" ”

Murong Long shook his head, "Your Highness, don't you understand? We are destined to never be the same as you were before! ”

Dongfang Ping smiled bitterly as if he was fated, "Why can't it?" ”

Seeing Dongfang Ping's expression, Murong Long's heart was settled, he slowly put on his robe, and said easily: "If we want to take back Lieyang Pass and Phoenix City, then we have to exchange Swift Prefecture with the people of the Southern Dynasties." The people of the Southern Dynasty just want you to die! If you don't die, how can the monarchs and ministers of the Southern Dynasty be safe? How can they give an account to the people of the world? How can you give us back the Lieyang Pass and Phoenix City? ”

He walked up to Dongfang Ping and looked at him condescendingly, "Today, you are not important to my Liang, but without you, it is important to us. ”

Dongfang Ping lowered his head, was silent for a moment, and then raised his head and said, "So, the fact that you flogged the soldiers and fled before was also fake?" ”

Murong Long nodded slowly, "That's nature." They have gone to the counties to control the rebels, and when I send your head to the Lieyang Pass, I will evacuate with most of the Harrier Eagles. When the Southern Dynasty takes over the Swift State, we will re-set off the turmoil and take back this prosperous and rich land. ”

He smiled, "We need a Swift Lord who is loyal to us, but that person doesn't have to be you. ”

He looked at a personal guard on the side and said: "Quickly pass the letter to the king of Dingxi according to the plan, the overall situation of Swift Prefecture has been decided!" ”

The guards nodded and retreated.

Dongfang Ping looked at Murong Long, his expression was quite pleading, "General, is there really no room for turning around in this matter?" ”

Murong Long chuckled, "Your Highness, I am one of the cowardly Xue Wei four cowardly Xue, who do you think can command me?" Don't blame me, I'm also doing what I'm told. ”

"Hey!" Dongfang Ping sighed, "In that case, I have no choice but to give up all my illusions." ”

As soon as the words fell, a commander who was originally holding a dagger to restrain Dongfang Ping suddenly moved, stepped forward, and aimed the dagger at Murong Long's throat.

And Dongfang Ping also retreated at the same time, and then subdued another commander of Beiliang who was caught off guard with a backhand.

The sudden changes in the field caught everyone off guard.

Of the remaining five commanders, three of them changed their expressions and were about to come to their rescue, but the other two dodged out of the queue and blocked their way.

Murong Long was also horrified and planned to fight back, but a cold voice came from his ears, and the lines were so familiar, "General, don't move, the sword has no eyes." ”

There was obvious pain in his neck, and a warm current ran through his skin, and under the threat of life and death, Murong Long could only dare not move like Dongfang Ping before.

The situation in the field has reached a stalemate, but everyone can see that the situation has been fundamentally reversed.

"What are you three going to do!"

The rest of the commanders scolded sharply, and the man who restrained Murong Long with a dagger said coldly: "Brothers, listen to what Your Highness has to say first!" ”

Dongfang Ping twisted the neck of the thousand-commander, looked at Murong Long, and smiled: "General, isn't it a surprise?" ”

Murong Long frowned, "Yes." I couldn't have imagined that my Murong family's loyal private army would actually rebel against the lord and sit back and watch my brothers in the army being killed by outsiders. ”

is worthy of being the hero of the Murong family, until this time, he was still thinking about the psychological offensive and trying to turn the tables.

Dongfang Ping smiled and picked up the dagger himself, "General, you don't really think that Xiao Wang didn't do anything during the time between Murong Hu's death and your arrival, right?" ”

He looked at the remaining three commanders in the field who tried to stand beside Murong Long, "Everyone, Murong Hu is dead, after you return to the dynasty, you are destined to have no good fruits, Beiliang is bitter and cold, how can you enjoy happiness in my prosperous land of swifts?" The Murong clan treats you like a slave, why is it like in my Swift State, and Xiao Wang treats you like brothers? Meritorious service, wife and son, rich life, where is worse than Beiliang? ”

A commander said in a deep voice: "General Tiger died on the battlefield, it was a battle battle, swords and guns have no eyes, and the head of the family has his own distinction. ”

The other person also spoke: "Yes, I have received the great favor of the Murong clan in the world, how can I betray the Lord and seek glory!" ”

Dongfang nodded slowly, and the dagger in his hand suddenly flung back, piercing Murong Long's throat with precision.

Murong Long clutched his neck in horror, his eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe that Dongfang Ping really dared to kill him, and that he, who had a great future, would really die so easily.

Dongfang Ping clapped his hands and smiled: "Now you don't have a choice." ”

The commander who had restrained Murong Long before slowly spoke at this time, "The matter has come to this point, why hesitate, Ronghua and wealth, beautiful wives and concubines, will His Highness treat us badly?" Do you really want to go back to Daliang for that so-called bullshit loyalty and let the Murong clan slaughter us and feed the dogs? Besides, can we go back to this situation? ”

The three of them glanced at each other, sighed, and knelt on one knee, "I'm willing to listen to His Highness's orders!" ”

Dongfang Ping laughed, "Everyone, please get up, with your help, this king is like a tiger with wings!" ”

——

At Lieyang Pass, Bai Yunbian looked at the Beiliang Mission in front of him, with a look of disdain and anger, "Don't talk about it!" Fight and don't fight! But why! Could it be that he is here to entertain his own officials? ”

Yelu Shi sat on the seat, his expression was as calm as at the beginning, "Huai'an Hou, it is a matter of military affairs, and some differences always need to be bridged slowly, so why rush for a while?" ”

Bai Yunbian snorted coldly, "Is this a hurry?" It's been five days! In five days, we have not been able to come to a conclusion, and this official seriously doubts whether your country really has the sincerity of peace talks! ”

Yelushi was still calm, "Huai'an Hou, diplomatic relations between the two countries are no trivial matter, such a major policy, naturally need both sides to think about it, five, tenth, fifteenth, as long as we can reach a charter that is ultimately beneficial to the two countries, it is the duty of our envoys, and it is also the result that the two dynasties hope for." ”

Xia Jingyun, who had been silent, suddenly said coldly: "If you can't reach a collegiate agreement today, you don't need to talk about it, Benhou will return to Zhongjing tomorrow, and let me talk to His Royal Highness King Jing about the rest!" ”

King Jing came to talk about it, and it was very clear what to talk about.

Yelushi frowned quietly, "Is Jianning Hou going to threaten the old man?" ”

Xia Jingyun's expression was calm, "You can understand it however you want, I'm just explaining my attitude." ”

Yelushi sighed, "Then let me wait for a discussion, and then discuss it in the afternoon, okay?" ”

Xia Jingyun snorted, "Today, Ben Hou is waiting for you at any time." ”

At the same time, under the scorching sun, from the direction of Huaishuo City, several fast horses arrived, "Daliang messenger, there is something to report to my delegation, please open the door!" ”

After a moment, Yelushi looked at the messenger with a look of excitement, "Is the news real?" ”

The messenger nodded, "It was the Harrier Eagle who rode a flying pigeon to deliver the message to Huaishuo City, and Lord Thorn Shi ordered us to send the message immediately." Absolutely true! ”

Yelushi breathed a long sigh of relief, "It's finally delayed to this moment, and the old man doesn't know how to delay it no matter how late." ”

He groaned for a while, and called a subordinate official, "Wait until the time is up, oh no, at three o'clock, go and ask the Southern Dynasty delegation to go upstairs again to discuss." ”

Then he looked at the messenger again, "Later someone will inquire about your coming, and you will say that it is only to convey your majesty's urging." ”

The messenger also nodded in response, and Yelushi smiled at King Jing, who was listening, and said, "Your Highness, it's almost noon, have a good lunch?" ”

King Jing, who had been tortured by Baiyunbian for the past few days, nodded weakly, "King Dingxi has arranged it." ”

At three o'clock, the two sides returned to the tall building and sat down in familiar positions.

Xia Jingyun looked at Yelushi, "King Dingxi has been thinking about it for a long time, do you think you will get something?" ”

Yelushi opened his mouth and said: "According to what I said before, your country will return Lieyang Pass, Phoenix City, and the 60,000 snow dragon riders and tiger and leopard horses seized by your country, and I will pay military expenses and losses of 1.5 million taels, and present Dongfang Ping's head, and the army will withdraw from Yuyan Prefecture and retreat beyond the previous confrontation line between Yuyan Prefecture and Guanshan Road. ”

Xia Jingyun shook his head, "No, in this way, I will return the hard-earned passes and cities, and release the prisoners, you just lost 1.5 million taels of silver and killed a person for us, how can this be considered fair?" ”

Yelushi didn't argue when he heard this, "What should I do according to the opinion of Marquis Jianning?" ”

"We will return one pass and one city and sixty thousand prisoners, and you will pay one and a half million taels of silver at one time, and at the same time send the prince to our court Zhongjing as a hostage, and pay 500,000 taels of annual coins every year, and open the market in Lieyang Pass for the merchants and travelers of the two countries to trade. Finally, send Dongfang Ping's head on, and your army will be pulled out of the Swift Prefecture range. ”

Yelushi shook his head when he heard this, "It is difficult for Your Majesty to agree to pay 500,000 taels of coins every year, not to mention the humiliation of this matter." is to agree, where did I get so much silver. ”

Xia Jingyun opened his mouth and said: "This 500,000 yuan can be discounted, war horses, armor, furs, medicinal materials, we can let the people below set a price, and finally convert it into so much money, fair and just." ”

Yelushi squinted, "The Marquis of Jianning is so domineering, isn't he afraid that he will cause hatred in the future and bury the hidden dangers of future wars?" ”

Xia Jingyun smiled faintly indifferently, "We only care about the present, and we will talk about the future in the future." If I am strong and prosperous, I will collect one million taels a year from you, and you have to pinch your nose and admit it, and make friends honestly. ”

King Jing couldn't help but speak: "Sending the prince as a hostage, it's too humiliating, my father will definitely not agree!" ”

"You're not going to agree, are you?" Bai Yunbian sneered, "Don't worry, your father has so many sons, and you are not the only one." ”

King Jing was angry, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Xia Jingyun raised his eyebrows, "Then do you want to change to a sect disciple?" ”

King Jing instantly began to mourn for his cousin Wenlu.

"Forget it! No one cares about the children of the clan anymore, just like nothing. Since this matter is inconvenient, let's change it, I'm a good talker. ”

After Xia Jingyun said a word of shameless boasting, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Wang Ruoshui, "Hand this person over to us and bring him back to Jingshi Ming for canonical punishment!" ”

Wang Ruoshui's body trembled, and he looked at Yelu Shi, "Lord Wang! ”

Yelushi looked at him and said softly: "Lord Wang, Your Majesty treats you well, and now is the time for you to contribute to the imperial court." ”

Wang Ruoshui's body collapsed, he fell to the ground, lost his soul, and muttered, "You can't do this."

But all this has nothing to do with him, and he is completely powerless to reverse it.

The two sides negotiated the big things and soon began to finalize details such as the timing of the settlement.

By nightfall, all the details had been discussed, and the respective documents had been written in duplicate and checked with each other, and then they were going to use the seals.

Yelushi held the seal letter, covered it heavily on the silk book, and said with a smile: "Marquis Jianning, in a few days, Dongfang Ping's head will be delivered, and I will start to deliver it later!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a figure walked quickly upstairs and into the room.

Great Xia killed the gods, the nightmare of Northern Liang, and Jiang Yuhu, the king of Jing, stood in front of everyone in Northern Liang for the first time.

Looking at this dragon and phoenix, the murderous young man, Yelushi's face finally couldn't help but change slightly.

Jiang Yuhu didn't care about him, but looked straight at Xia Jingyun, "The secret spy in Swift Prefecture sent a message, Dongfang Ping killed Murong Long, subdued most of the Harrier Eagle Cavalry, and all those who did not surrender were beheaded, and all the Northern Liang forces have been expelled from Swift Prefecture." ”

The faces of everyone in Beiliang changed suddenly, Yelushi looked at Jiang Yuhu with wide eyes, and his light face was full of shock for the first time.

In the silk book on the table, the mark was bright red, like a striking mockery.

——

Bang!

The expensive teacup made a decisive arc in the air, falling into angry pieces on the ground.

Emperor Liang propped up the table, his eyes were red, and he was panting, "Waste! A bunch of rubbish! ”

Murong Long died, the Harrier Eagle Cavalry rebelled, the overall situation of Swift Prefecture was out of control, and all his plans were completely in vain!

What generation of heroes, there is only one arrogant person left who does not measure his own strength and tries in vain to provoke the Central Plains Zhengshuo!

His glorious achievements in the past can only be turned into a stepping stone for Jiang Yuhu and the emperor and queen mother of the Southern Dynasty!

He hates!

He looked out of the hall, gritted his teeth, and hatefully popped out three words from it: "Murong Clan!" ”

The Murong family, among the seven surnames of Northern Liang, ranks third among the lower four surnames.

Murong Hammer, the head of the Murong family, who had been calling for wind and rain in Daliang, was now panicked and paced back and forth in the room.

He was named after the Murong clan, and the generation has the characteristics of the generation.

his fathers, gold, silver, copper, and iron;

In his generation, the sword, axe, hammer and whip;

To the next generation, dragons, tigers, leopards, and dogs.

All of them are first-class talents, even if they are not talents, with the help of the huge power of the Murong family, they can also become people.

But this time, they're in big trouble.

Murong Hu was beheaded by the Southern Dynasty in Yuyan Prefecture, where he had a great advantage, so that the plan to attack the Southern Dynasty died abruptly;

Murong Bao was in Yanhui Pass, but he did not prevent the support of the Wudang army, which laid the consequences for the defeat of the main cavalry later, and he was also beheaded later;

The last hope, Murong Long, quietly went to Yuyan Prefecture to preside over the plan of the imperial court's counteroffensive, but in the case of intentional calculation, he was rehabilitated and killed by Dongfang Ping, which led to the collapse of His Majesty's overall plan, and at the same time completely pushed Dongfang Ping away from the imperial court.

In three battles in a row, he failed to grasp the three low-hanging fruit achievements, but instead lost his troops and generals, and harmed the overall situation.

The dragon, tiger and leopard are dead, but His Majesty's anger is borne by the entire Murong family.

And without the next generation of outstanding talents, how can the Murong family withstand His Majesty's anger, and will it be suppressed step by step, or even fall out of the range of the seven surnames?

In the thick night, Murong Hammer was worried, and at this moment, the housekeeper in the center of the mansion came to report, "Family master, someone sent a letter." ”

Murong Hammer frowned directly, stretched out his hand, checked the paint seal, opened it, and his expression changed suddenly.

He looked at the note, his expression uncertain, and then placed it on the lamp and lit it and kneaded it into powder.

A moment later, a black cloak covered Murong Hammer's tall figure, walking among the dark nights.

After turning around and coming to an inconspicuous house, he pushed the door and walked in, and saw the figure sitting in it.

Looking at that familiar face, he couldn't help but roar in a low voice: "You are so bold! (End of chapter)
