Chapter 495: Six Families Gather
The border city is not big, but it has all kinds of organs, and 6 forces are gathered together today, which is a rare occurrence in the border within 10 years!
The last time these forces gathered together, it was the Turks who broke through the Great Wall and fought all the way outside the city, and they had no way to escape, but they could only defend on top of one city!
And that kind of thing has been many years ago, after many years of gathering together again, but there is no sympathy for old friends to see each other, but everyone has a murderous aura in their eyes, this is originally full of exotic wind, it is the best post station in Mayi City, but at this time it is like the central area of the battle between the two armies, and the air pressure is very dignified!
A woman with only a few strips of cloth hanging on it, carrying a plate full of sheep made of pure gold, slowly walked into the hall!
But as soon as he stepped into the door, his legs were weak and he almost knelt on the ground!
I saw that in this originally clean and bright hall, a wild man in thin skin, who was holding a piece of life at this time, was feasting!
Blood left traces on his beard and dripped onto the ground, forming a puddle of blood!
The foul smell was so bad that no one could tell what he was eating, which made people shudder even more!
And in this post station, Li Jing, who was located in the first upper position on his right hand, saw this person's actions, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a trace of murderous intent flashed!
Xiao Yun on the side was indifferent, looking at the woman cowering in front of the door, he smiled and said, "Someone hasn't come to bring it in his hand yet, is this going to starve our guests?" ”
Immediately, one of the guards behind him took the tray from the maid's hand and placed it in front of the six people in the field!
Compared to this wild Turkic man, although the others behaved decently, their eyes were full of vigilance, Xiao Yun's eyes turned, except for Li Jing and him, I am afraid that everyone in the field is a difficult person to deal with!
The bearded man finished gnawing a leg of mutton, threw the bloody bones aside, wiped a handful of blood from his beard with his hand, and shouted: "Didn't you say that there are 7 people, why are there only 6 now!" The invitation of the messenger to us does not mean that we can be humiliated! ”
As soon as the Turkic man said this, Li Jing on the side suddenly snorted coldly: "Today, for the sake of the dead, I let you enter and exit this city, but it doesn't mean that you can spread wild, who dares to be disrespectful to the envoy of the Xiao family, first ask the sword in the hand of Li!" ”
Li Jing stood up suddenly, and the sword in his hand was half out of his body, and suddenly a cold light flashed in the field, making the other few people immediately cautious!
Only the bearded man laughed: "General Li is really the same as ever, still so domineering and awe-inspiring, but do you think our horse gang is afraid of you?" Then you're underestimating a certain family! ”
As soon as these words came out, his bloody hand grabbed a giant axe next to the table, and he suddenly stood up, and he dared to draw a knife against Li Jing, and he didn't take Li Jing, the guard of the imperial court, in his eyes at all!
Seeing the tension in the field, Xiao Yun immediately stood up!
"Ladies and gentlemen, why draw a knife for some trivial matter? Please also give Xiao someone a face, put down the weapons in your hands for the time being, and let's talk about some issues that have been debated for many years! ”
The bearded man snorted coldly, squinted at Li Jing, looked at him with disdain, and then put the axe on the table and said mockingly.
"This Great Sui Dynasty is really alive and going back, when will we, the horse gangs wandering on the grassland, be able to bargain with you court officials sitting in the high-sounding Tang Dynasty?"
Li Jing's face trembled, and the hand holding the sword tightened a little!
He is not a cowardly person, nor is he a person who can look at the enemy who kills his comrades in front of him, but he does not dare to draw a sword!
But he is not only a general with amazing force, wisdom and strategy, but also the parent official of tens of thousands of people in the sloppy city right now!
Let him talk about business with a group of robbers, which was not supposed to be discussed!
But the situation is not as good as the people, there is no food and money in the hands, and even the weapons have not been replaced for several years, it is not a wise choice to confront this group of arrogant and laughing forces, tens of thousands of people in their hands!
So even when he heard the ridicule, Li Jing just snorted coldly, pretending not to hear it and sat back in his seat.
Seeing that the two of them had temporarily suppressed their anger, a Persian stood up, and he performed a very elegant etiquette of covering his mouth, and then combed his red and yellow beard before he spoke.
"Honorable envoy, you are from the imperial capital thousands of miles away, and we should have brought out the best things, the best beauties to entertain you, but in the past two years, we can only guarantee that we will not be swallowed up by the horse gangs outside the city, and they have shown wolf-like aggressive thoughts towards my sons' wives, which makes me very worried! So I wonder if the Messenger can take pity on us strangers and give us some help! ”
Xiao Yun frowned, he didn't expect that the first people to wake up in the scene were actually these Persians who had the most difficulty in learning Chinese!
If he gathers these forces together today, it is impossible to solve the problem by force, but the Turkic people who drink blood like hair do not understand this at all!
also wanted to get some benefits by provoking Li Jing, which made Xiao Yun just laugh at him for being stupid, but this Persian is not a fool, and now he has started the first step of temptation!
Xiao Yun knew in his heart that he could let Li Jing give up some benefits today, but these must not involve his own people, so he thought about it and said.
"Your Excellency has come all the way from Persia, and General Li Jing has given you enough care, as for the grievances between the horse gang and you, I'm afraid this can't be discussed today!"
The Turkic man also snorted coldly: "A group of bad seeds, if we can't beat us, do we want to find foreign help?" Then you have miscalculated, just this Li Jing, Lao Tzu let him have one hand, and he may not be Lao Tzu's opponent! ”
When Li Jing heard this, his eyes almost burst into flames, and Xiao Yun immediately smiled when he saw this scene, and reached out to suppress Li Jing's wrist!
Li Jing was unwilling in his heart, and lowered his voice and said: "Envoy of the Xiao family, now many leaders of the entire border force are around this room, as long as we take action to destroy it, this border force will naturally be much worse than before, and it can be easily and completely recovered, why should a certain family be insulted like this?" After killing him, I see what he still says! ”
When Xiao Yun heard Li Jing's words, he knew what Li Jing was thinking, but he could only sigh helplessly.
"General Li is calm and restless, and let's see how a certain family appeases them!"
Xiao Yun said softly, then stood up and shook his hand in the direction of the horse gang.
"A certain family has long heard that there is a force operating on the border, and this force not only abridges the merchants who left the Great Sui, but also encircles and suppresses the tribes of the Turks! Even a certain Turkic Golden Horde commander once asked for help from the border, trying to try for us to work together to destroy this force! I don't know if this brother knows about this? ”
After Xiao Yun finished speaking, the bearded man was stunned for a moment, and then his face changed wildly, and the whole person was like falling into an ice cave, and even his eyes were filled with fear!
Xiao Yun's words are very simple, the Turks have already asked us for assistance, we only need to promise something, your horse gang will be easily wiped out, Li Jing may not be able to take you because he has only a few thousand people in his hands, and it is difficult to catch your horse gang that comes and goes like the wind on the desert!
But if it is the border army that unites with the Turks, coupled with the encirclement and interception of the Turks, even if your horse gang has the ability to go to heaven and earth, just trapping you in the desert is enough to kill you to death!
So after listening to Xiao Yun's words, if the bearded man doesn't know how to restrain himself, it will be a real disaster!
