"Since you have said it straight to the point, the king, I will hide it again, but it seems that I have little energy. Well, my lord, I have come this time, and I do have something to ask for. ”

Ah Ling nodded and said, "Say it, I'm listening." ”

"I want to buy some cattle and sheep from you, the king, and some things that can be eaten as food."

"What do you want this for?" Ah Ling frowned: "Didn't Ba Jin City also fall under the control of your Song people?" In this case, your supplies should be able to reach Wabuki without any problems. ”

Tang Ning smiled: "The king's eyeliner is really a lot, that's right, Ba Jin City is indeed under our control, and the supplies from Hezhou are also on the way."

But, the king. Yesterday's battle, your eyeliner should have been seen.

All the 8,000 soldiers under Ali's bone tent were captured by me while Zajie was captured alive. Therefore, it was not enough for us to eat the food that the supplies arrived, and we had to distribute it to these soldiers.

Therefore, I would like to be able to buy some livestock and food from you, the king, and hold out until the supplies arrive. ”

Ah Ling squinted his eyes and asked, "Why don't you kill them all?" This is both convenient and hassle-free. ”

Tang Ning shook his head and said with a smile: "The king said that he was joking, these eight thousand soldiers were not originally intended. Besides, our Song army didn't come to Qingtang to commit massacres.

We must rescue the people of Qingtang who are in dire straits, overthrow the brutal Ali Gu regime, and return the people of Qingtang to a green grassland and a clear sky. ”

"The people of Qingtang don't need you Song people to save them, and it won't be your turn to save them." Ah Ling shook his head and said, "But you want to overthrow Ali Gu, we are unanimous on this point.

So I can help you, but what are you going to give me in exchange?

Even if we are friends now, I can't give you a huge amount of cattle and sheep for nothing. ”

"Money." Tang Ning replied: "I have brought a lot of gold, silver, jewelry, cloth and silk, and I hope to use these things to exchange cattle and sheep with you as food." ”

"Hahaha!" Ah Ling laughed three times, looked at Tang Ning and said meaningfully, "Do you think what I care about is money?" ”

Tang Ning smiled bitterly: "I can't give more things, and I don't have the right to do it." Within my power, I can only give you these gold, silver and jewels.

As for the rest, if you are able to meet the envoy of the official family, then you should discuss these matters with him. ”

Ah Ling spread his hands and said, "Then there is no need to talk about it?" ”

"It is a pleasure to be able to meet you and make friends with you, I feel very happy. Buying and selling is not benevolent, and I hope that the king can become the real master of this grassland. ”

Downing finished

, got up and arched his hand to Ah Ling, and then turned his head to leave the big tent.

But when Tang Ning had just walked to the door of the big tent and was about to leave, Ah Ling suddenly stopped Tang Ning from behind.

"Don't be in a hurry to leave." Ah Ling smiled: "Since we are already friends, everything is easy to discuss, isn't it?" ”

"That's right." Tang Ning grinned at Ah Ling.

"My condition is that you leave behind all that you have brought. When you return, I hope you will be able to write a letter to your Emperor of Song.

Once Ali Gu is overthrown, Qingtang needs a new ruler. Otherwise, Qingtang, which is torn apart, will soon be annexed by Western Xia or your Song Kingdom.

I can make Qingtang a vassal state of your Song Kingdom, but I want to ensure that Qingtang belongs to the people of Qingtang, not to your Song Kingdom. ”

Tang Ning replied with a smile: "These words, the king, it is useless for you to tell me. Wait for me to write a letter to the official's house, and the official family will send an envoy to discuss the matter with you. ”

"Okay." Ah Ling also knew a little about the official position of the Song State, at least he knew that he should not find a military attache of the Song State to talk about this matter.

"I will give you two hundred head of oxen and four hundred head of sheep. You will also be given ten shepherds to help you bring these cattle and sheep back to Wabui Village. Moreover, I will also help you Song people to fight against Ali Gu, and if you need this, you can send someone to tell me. ”

Tang Ning bowed and said: "That book represents all the officers and soldiers of the Zhenjiang Army, thank you for the king's kindness." ”

Ah Ling smiled: "You're welcome, we're friends." ”

With that, the two looked at each other and laughed, and then Tang Ning turned his head and left the big tent.

The front foot had just stepped out, and the Song man who looked familiar with his back just now appeared in front of him.

Seeing this person's appearance clearly, Tang Ning really wanted to kill this person now.

"Oh, it's been a long time, don't you think? Dr. Tang? Or should a certain family call you now...... Tang Chan? Lord Tang? ”

Where is this person familiar, he is Zhao Ren, the great enemy that Tang Ning hated to be able to get rid of.

The smiling appearance has not changed in the slightest from him on Nanshan, the only change is that there is an extra scar on his face, from the root of his ear to his cheek, which looks very terrifying.

But if you don't look closely, you can't see it, because Zhao Ren has grown a beard, which partially covers this long scar.

"Zhao Ren." Downing squinted his eyes and whispered his name.

"It's me." Zhao Ren said with a smile.

"What are you doing here?"

"This is still thanks to Lord Tang, Lord Tang killed those unruly subordinates of a certain family along the way, and it is really nothing for a certain family to stay in the territory

What a sense of security.

No, a certain family fled here to escape the disaster. Zhao Ren said with a smile: "But there is a saying, no coincidence is not a book." I didn't expect to see you again here.

It has been a long time since Nanshan said goodbye. I wonder if Lord Tang has been doing well these days? A certain family thinks about you very tightly, day and night, a certain family can't sleep every night, and they are thinking about the good means of Lord Tang when he was in Nanshan! ”

"Then you have to have a good time, and you can sleep well in the future." Tang Ning stretched out his hand to the side of his leg and said expressionlessly.

"Oh? What does Lord Tang mean by this? A hint of banter flashed in Zhao Ren's eyes, and he looked at Tang Ning without fear.

"Because today is your lucky day!" Tang Ning immediately took out a small crossbow from the side of his leg, aimed it at Zhao Ren, and prepared to buckle the bracket.

However, at this time, a big hand forcibly pressed down Tang Ning's arm holding the small crossbow. Tang Ning's machine had already been pressed, and the arrow shot at Zhao Ren's feet with a bang.

"He's my guest." Ah Ling looked at Tang Ning and said solemnly: "I don't care what grievances you two have, after leaving, you two will please, but don't fight and kill here with me." ”

While speaking, a group of Qingtang warriors had already surrounded him.

Zhao Ren squatted down, pulled out the arrow from the ground, and smiled at Tang Ning: "Lord Tang's gift, a certain family will definitely treasure it." ”

"Really?" Tang Ning smiled, and with his other hand, he used his other hand to find a small crossbow on the side of the other leg, aimed it between Zhao Ren's legs, and shot it out with an arrow.

However, to Tang Ning's disappointment, the arrow did not hit where he wanted to shoot, but shot at Zhao Ren's thigh.

Everyone didn't expect Tang Ning to make a move, and even Ah Ling was stunned.

Tang Ning pursed his lips and said, "Today is really your lucky day...... After that, he said to Ah Ling: "King, don't you let me go?" ”

Ah Ling sighed in his heart, this immature-looking Song general is really ruthless. In time, he will inevitably get ahead in the Song Kingdom.

After being stunned for a short time, the Qingtang warriors pounced on Tang Ning and his party.

Pei Xiantong and Lin Wei unsheathed their swords and prepared to meet the enemy, but Ah Ling let out a snort and stopped the Qingtang warriors who rushed up.

"If I let you go, you won't hurt him again?" Ah Ling looked at Tang Ning and asked.

"If it weren't for the king's face, the arrow just now would not have hit his thigh but his heart." Tang Ning replied seriously: "This person is a wanted criminal on the run in my Great Song Dynasty.

Since you want to protect him, I will naturally not go against your will. But I hope that you will not associate with such strange people, and I think the officials will also have a different opinion of you because of this. ”
