"In front of you is Linyuan County."

Zhao Yue has been running in the mountains for so many days, and now it is finally visible.

As far as the eye can see, there are no longer mountains towering in the distance, but a wide plain.

Linyuan County, located on the bank of Yuanshui, is only a few dozen miles away from Yunmengze.

On the plains, the land is flat, and the houses are like houses.

Of course...

The construction of the city naturally requires defense, so the site of Linyuan County is on the edge of one of the few mountains on the plain.

Linyuan County is surrounded by mountains on three sides, the mountains are undulating, the clouds and mist are shrouded, the only place without mountains faces the river, and Yuanshui is his moat.

Everyone marched into Linyuan County, and the prosperity inside was far beyond Fei Yi's imagination.

I saw that the wide streets of the city were full of people, horse-drawn carriages and vendors. The two sides of the city gate are carved with exquisite stone beasts and bronze figures, which are extremely magnificent. Most of the houses in the city are built in a simple way, with green and gray as the main color, and some houses also hang the banners of wine shops and restaurants, which looks very lively.

"I thought that Wulingman was a wild place, and I didn't want to be in Linyuan County, but the situation I saw was different from what I thought."

For the Central Plains, the flat land around Linyuan County is not a plain at all, but for Nanzhong, the place where Linyuan County is located can be described as a flat river.

If you make up all the households here and measure the land for tuntian, the cost of investment and harvest will definitely far exceed that of Nanzhong!

It's a good place.

Ma Liang got out of the carriage, and his appearance was the same as when he came.

He has a thin appearance, slightly sunken cheeks, bright eyes, thick eyebrows, and deep eyes, as if he can see through people's hearts. His forehead is slightly broad, and his high nose and slender chin frame a deep face. Dressed in a cyan silk robe, embroidered with some exquisite patterns, it looks very elegant.

The whole body is extraordinary, and people know at a glance that he is the messenger of this envoy.

"Linyuan County attracts the surrounding people to come to make a living, and there is a market in the morning, which is lively."

He glanced at Fei Yi beside him, and said with a smile:

"The palace of King Miao is in the city, show the guard of honor of the envoys, and see King Miao Shamoke!"

"Yes!"

Everyone changed their costumes, and as soon as they entered the city, they were discovered by the city sergeants.

The messenger is coming!

...

There is a royal palace in Linyuan County.

Of course...

It is said to be the palace, but in fact, the size is only a little larger than the official mansion, not to mention that it is better than the Chengdu Prefecture Pastoral Mansion, that is, even the palace of the Dali Wangcheng in Nanzhong is even inferior.

At this moment, above the main hall, Miao Wang Shamoke's face was bitter, he looked at the paperwork in his hand, and was so angry that he crumpled him into a ball and threw him on the ground.

"Sun Quan'er is too deceitful!"

He was panting, his forehead was bruised, his face was red and his neck was thick, and his hideous appearance seemed to want to devour people.

"Why is the tribute money and grain this month twice as much as last month? Could it be that Sun Quan thinks that I, Shamoke, can ask him for it at will? ”

According to the original division, Wuling County belonged to Liu Bei's sphere of influence, but now Liu Bei has suppressed the main force in Hanzhong, and Nanzhong is powerless to govern, let alone Wuling.

Sun Quan naturally came to infiltrate Wuling County.

After all, for Sun Quan, if there is a benefit, why don't you take it?

Isn't that stupid?

But he didn't dare to go too far, so he had to come forward to collect and worship, if you give it, I will let you go, but if you don't give it, the army will immediately press the border, plunder the surroundings, and attack and kill the people!

Once, Shamoke refused to accept Sun Quan, and as a result, he was overwhelmed by the army, and tens of thousands of people in Wuling County were taken captive.

Therefore, even if Shamoke is no longer convinced in his heart, before he has the strength to resist, he has to be a man with his tail between his legs, and he will pay tribute to Jianye every month.

"My Wuling was originally the land of Uncle Liu, and Sun Quan Xiao'er dared to deceive people too much!"

Ay~

He clenched his fists, but thinking of the painful lesson before, he had to sigh and chew the humiliation into his swallow.

Uncle Huang is not an elite soldier, when will I be able to raise my eyebrows?

Just when Shamoko was depressed, he ran out of the door to take care of things.

"My lord, I saw a group of people in the city who claimed to be envoys from Chengdu, and they said that they were entrusted with the important task of the prince and came to envoy Wuling!"

Envoys from Chengdu?

Shamoko's whole body was about to jump.

"Quick!"

He immediately stood up, his face beaming with ecstasy.

"Invite the envoys into the Lord's house."

But as if he had thought of something, he waved his hand to stop the steward who was leaving, and said, "No... In this case, it will be too disrespectful to the Chengdu envoys, and I will go to greet them in person! ”

He hurriedly changed into a proper dress, and then followed the steward out of the 'Miao Palace', and not long after walking, he saw the envoy's guard of honor on the main road in the city.

He greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Little King Shamoke, meet the Chengdu envoy!"

He lowered his posture and immediately bowed to him.

"Hahaha~"

Ma Liang laughed, his feet were fast, and he helped Shamoko, who was about to kneel, to his feet.

"Why does the king have to make such a great gift? Get up quickly. ”

Shamoke took advantage of the trend, and when he saw Ma Liang's extraordinary temperament, he couldn't help but feel good in his heart.

"Angel, please!"

Angel is the meaning of the envoy of the Son of Heaven.

Liu Bei is not the emperor now, Ma Liang can't actually be called an angel, but he didn't correct the mistakes of Shamoke's spoken language, in the eyes of these barbarians, Liu Bei is actually the future emperor.

With this layer of aura, you can better win the hearts of the people of Wulingman.

Everyone walked all the way, and soon entered the Miao Palace, and arrived at the Miao Palace.

"Messenger, please take a seat."

Shamoko was humble and wanted to give up the throne to Maleon.

"The king's kindness, I understand it, but I also invite the king to take the throne."

Maleon smiled and welcomed Shamoko to the throne, and only after he was seated did he kneel down to the top of the throne.

"We haven't yet said why we sent this envoy, isn't the king curious?"

Shamoke smiled and said, "I heard that Gongzi quelled the rebellion in Nanzhong, and now he is sending an angel here, I'm afraid he wants to collect my Wuling land, but?" ”

Ma Liang waved his hand, Fei Yi understood, and handed the documents in his hand to the case in front of the throne.

"The king invited himself to watch."

Although Shamoke was a military general, he was not illiterate, so he picked up the document and read it carefully.

"The humerus of the country, Miao King Shamoke, I am ordered by heaven to grant Wuling...."

After a long time, Shamoke slowly raised his head, and he said to Ma Liang: "The meaning of the child, Xiao Wang knows it!" ”

He put the chapter and table documents on the case, and said: "Gongzi intends to detain Wuling, and even plots the barbarians of Yangzhou Shanyue, this matter, I raise my hands in favor, and cause turmoil for Sun Quan Xiao'er, so that he is anxious, so that he can't care about each other!" Give him some color! ”

When he thought of the bullying he had suffered from Sun Quan these days, he hated Sun Quan a little more in his heart.

Now that he can stumble Sun Quan, how can he Shamoke disagree?

"It's just..."

He raised his head and quietly glanced at Ma Liang, and said: "If you want to hand over Meng Yu, it is also feasible to attack the hinterland of Yangzhou, but... Childe can have a large army to rush here? ”

If no army came, with his Wulingman's strength and the combat effectiveness of the army, he would not be Sun Quan's opponent at all.

Don't want him to tease Sun Quan with his front feet and provoke him, Sun Quan raised a large army to attack, but the son Liu Chan did not send troops at all.

When the time comes, he will be beaten and his people will suffer heavy losses, so who will he go to reason?

If you want him to be obedient, you have to have substantial support!

Shamoko simply confessed.

"Angel, don't hide it, Sun Quan Xiao'er has been forcing me to wait for tribute, and he sends grain and grass to Jianye every month, otherwise, he will raise a large army to come and plunder the people, and my soldiers are not enough to resist Sun Quan's soldiers, so I have to let the people be plundered by it, and there is nothing to do."

Shamoke glanced at Ma Liang, saw that his expression was as usual, and continued: "If the prince can't raise a large army to rescue, I'm afraid that Xiao Wang will not be able to obey his fate." ”

"Hahaha~"

Ma Liang raised his head and laughed, and said: "What is my Tao, it was originally a matter of raising troops to help, since it is to ask the king to obey his orders, we naturally have to express it, can the king know that Nanzhong is under the control of the prince?" ”

Shamoko nodded and said, "How did I not know about this?" Meng Huo is now in my house. ”

"Since the king knows that Gongzi has occupied the land of Nanzhong, he understands that Gongzi can use the forces of Nanzhong, and it is not a secret, Gongzi has recruited soldiers in Nanzhong, and has already built an army, called Wudang Fei Army, with a number of 50,000 soldiers, and an army of 50,000 to support, is the king still afraid of Sun Quan?"

He also had 20,000 or 30,000 men under his command, but his combat effectiveness was much inferior to Sun Quan's regular army.

If there is the support of 50,000 people from Gongzi Wudang's flying army, then Sun Quan's trouble is not to worry.

He thought for a while and said, "Is Childe really willing to send troops?" ”

"Why is the king suspicious? Childe said, the horse is difficult to chase, he is in the chapter and table documents, but did he say that he wanted to keep Wuling safe? ”

Shamoko picked up the document again, looked at it closely, and found that there was indeed such an expression, and his heart settled down slightly.

"The prince not only wants to send troops, but also to reward the king, I pretend to be a merchant all the way, the caravan has three carriages, the carriage is contained, all gold and silver treasures, weapons and armor, and..."

He glanced at Fei Yi, who realized again, at this moment he was holding a mahogany plate in his hand, and on the plate, there was a county guard robe and a seal.

"In order to show sincerity, the prince specially expressed you as the Taishou of Wuling, so far, does the king still have doubts in his heart?"

Everyone has a love for money.

As soon as he heard that there were three carts of gold and silver treasures, weapons and armor, Shamoke believed Ma Liang's words a little, and then heard that his son Liu Chan ordered him to be the Taishou of Wuling, then the last trace of doubt in his heart disappeared.

Since he is the Taishou of Wuling, there is a layer of official body, and now, the prince will never ignore him, right?

"Childe's sincerity is like this, if I have anything else to say, I don't know what to do."

Shamoko got up, he beat his chest with his right hand, and said loudly: "I, Shamoke, will respect the son's order!" ”

"Good!"

Ma Liang also got up, and at this time, he no longer had the warm smile on his face.

In the past, he showed sincerity and gave Shamoko benefits, so now, it is time for Shamoko to show sincerity.

"I heard that Meng Shu is now in the Miao Palace?"

Where did Shamoke not know what Ma Liang meant.

"I'll send Meng Ju over here."

Although Meng Shu had a friendship with him, this friendship was not as strong as gold and stone.

Besides, even if it is as strong as gold, what can it be?

After adding money, you can still sell!

Good brothers, good friends, aren't they sold?

"I'm not in a hurry to see Meng Shu."

After Shamoke expressed his deference, Meng Shu was already in his pocket.

"What does the angel mean?"

Ma Liang smiled and said, "Since Sun Quan wants you to pay tribute, there must be an embassy coming?" ”

Although he was smiling, his eyes were full of murderous intent.

When Shamoko saw it, he couldn't help but tremble for a while.

"In the royal palace, there is a Jiangdong mission, and the angel means..."

"Wuling is the land of the lord, Sun Quan has crossed the border, he wants you to pay tribute every month, how can this be reasonable? Capture and kill the messenger first, leave a live mouth to deliver the letter, send it to Jianye, and show your attitude to Jiangdong! ”

If all the people of the Jiangdong Mission were killed, then he Shamoko would have no way to retreat at all.

Kill...

Or not kill?

Shamoke hesitated slightly, but when he looked up, he saw Ma Liang's slightly playful expression, and his body suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

By now he knew he shouldn't hesitate.

He Shamoko has only one choice, and he has already made a choice.

"Xiao Wang immediately led someone to put their heads on their necks and sent them to the angels."

"Good!"

Ma Liang picked up the wine bottle that had collapsed in front of him, saluted Shamoke, and said: "I believe that the king will be glad for today's choice in the future, with the son here, Wuling will not have to pay tribute in the future, and the king will be prosperous in the future!" ”

Shamoke didn't say much, immediately took the scimitar, and led the left and right to rush out of the Miao Palace, and after a long time, he heard a shout of killing, but the shouting of killing only rang for half an hour, and soon stopped.

"Angel, look!"

Shamoko was bloodied with a scimitar in his hand, and he carried a large head in his hand, looking like a demon crawling out of hell, and he was extremely hideous.

"This is the envoy of Jiangdong, and now he has been beheaded by me!"

"Good!"

Ma Liang personally poured a bottle of warm wine and handed it to Shamoke.

"The king is so sincere, I know it, I am honest with each other now, and I can discuss the next big plan."

stirred up the Shanyue rebellion, won over the hearts of the Changsha barbarians, and disturbed the situation in Jiaozhou.

As long as one of these three goals can be achieved, Sun Quan will be overwhelmed.

"The angel's sincerity is so, how can I not obey, please!"

I have been bullying Sun Quan these days, and now, it is finally time to raise my eyebrows.

Thirty years in the east of the river, thirty years in the west of the river.

Is he Shamoko easy to bully?
