Chapter 1084: The Entente

"What? The words are not rough, isn't what my handsome man said wrong? Zhao Qing and the others also raised their eyebrows and scolded angrily.

Guli Peiluo's face was gloomy, he waved his hand to stop the shouting and scolding of the people around him, and said coldly: "Although Wang Xiangguo has the advantage of his tongue, Ben Khan will not fight with you for this." Ben Khan wants to make one thing clear to Wang Xiangguo, we Hui people do not mean to occupy the city of your Tang people. This is what your emperor of the Tang Dynasty mortgaged to us. We lent troops to you to put down the rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, and your emperor used the city as collateral, and the two sides signed an agreement, written in black and white. Now you're running to beat us, and you're at a loss. Isn't it sincerity that we have paid a great deal of life and injury, and that we have given up the pledge you have given us? This is different from the example you just gave. ”

Wang Yuan smiled and said, "Hehe, do you still want to reason with me?" If you say that, we can't stop you, right? You're like a little daughter-in-law. Don't think I don't know what you're up to. Why do you want to lend me troops to Datang? Still not looking to take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters? It's okay to borrow troops, why force the city to mortgage? Isn't this a clear revelation of the wolf's ambitions? ”

Guli Peiluo shouted: "If you insist on saying this, how can I answer?" ”

Wang Yuan sneered: "I didn't wronged you. I will solve the matter of Datang by myself, what do you want to join in? ”

Guli Peiluo shouted: "That's your emperor wants to borrow, why don't you want to think about why he is willing to use the city as a mortgage to borrow troops?" You should know better than anyone else. It is precisely because of the existence of people like you that he is desperate to borrow troops. ”

Wang Yuan slammed the table without warning, and there was a bang, startling everyone.

"Guli Peiluo, how is my Datang inside, that's my Datang's business. When will it be your turn to worry about it? I am all Han Chinese, and the struggle between Han and Han people is our own business. Whoever becomes the emperor and who is in charge of the world is also our own Han people's own business. You barbarians, just stay on your grassland honestly, and if the Han people fall out with each other, it will not be your turn to point fingers. What's more, you are not just pointing fingers, but even thinking of finding an opportunity to go south and be the master of our Han people. You don't pee and take pictures, you deserve it! ”

"I don't have the heart to go south, you're just speculating with the heart of a villain."

"Phew! How many of you barbarians are good? Since ancient times, when did you not want to invade the Central Plains? The Western Zhou Dynasty was destroyed by the Dog Rong, the Xiongnu attacked in the Han Dynasty, and the Five Hu Chaos in the Jin Dynasty, aren't these all things that you restless guys did? Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, you have done many bad things. You may say, none of that has anything to do with you. I only ask you, you have to be rewarded by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty with the title of Huairen Khan, and give a lot of material and financial support before you can gain a foothold in the north. But what did you do when I was in danger? You took advantage of the fire to rob, invade the land of my Tang City, and brutalize my Tang people, this is the nature of you white-eyed wolves. Dogs can't change eating, and if they don't teach you a heavy lesson, you really think that you can covet my Central Plains, it's just wishful thinking. ”

Wang Yuan scolded angrily with his head and face, and scolded Pei Luo's bloody head. If what Wang Yuan said was false, it would be fine. However, Wang Yuan's words were exactly what Guli Pei Luo had always thought, but he taught him to be speechless.

"Well said! The words of the brothers were full of joy. What my brother agrees with the most is that sentence, whoever fights and kills between my Han people, that is my Han business, and it is not the turn of the barbarians to intervene. Anyone can be the emperor and sit on the Han world, but you barbarians don't even think about it. Gao Xianzhi also shouted.

"Are you Han people amazing? We don't want to come to your Han place at all. What are you ...... Spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. The young man next to Guli Peiluo shouted with his hair braided and his face flushed.

"Ho! You know a lot, and you actually know the phrase 'spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain'. I thought you were all blood-drinking savages, but it seems that you have read a lot of books on us Han Chinese. Who are you? Wang Yuan squinted at the young man.

"I am Moyan Sili, I am the son of my father Khan, what?" Mo Yan said proudly.

Wang Yuan glanced at Guli Peiluo, who had a gloomy face, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be your son, you have a son, that's good." ”

Guli Pei Luo felt a little furious in his heart, and Wang Yuan seemed to be a little threatening when he said this. But Guli Peiluo didn't want to talk about anything else, and said coldly: "Wang Xiangguo, what you said is all speculation in your heart. I'm not going to excuse it. In fact, it was indeed the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty who invited us here. But now, we don't want to care about your Datang's affairs, I have already said, quit Datang. Isn't that enough? ”

Wang Yuan said: "Of course it's not enough, don't forget the lives of your 30,000 people, there must be something to exchange." If you want to be sloppy and just pat your ass and leave, that's not possible. ”

Guli Pei Luo sneered: "Wang Xiangguo, since you can take the lives of my 30,000 soldiers and horses, why don't you attack the city directly?" Although you pretend to be calm, you can't fool me. There is a reason why we are sitting here to negotiate, and your soldiers and horses have suffered a lot of casualties in this battle, and if you attack the city again, my 30,000 warriors will resist desperately, how can you pay the price. I have nothing in the first place, so it's a big deal to die here, but your soldiers and horses have been killed and injured so much, and then your Tang Emperor will crusade against you, and you are afraid that you will not be able to resist. You'll end up like me. Don't try to scare me, everyone is a smart person, and if you push Ben Khan, Ben Khan will drag you into the water. How to decide, I think Wang Xiangguo knows a lot. ”

Wang Yuan was stunned, and immediately understood the reason why this backbone Pei Luo looked confident from the beginning, it turned out that he had already seen through the situation, but he was indeed not a straw bale.

"When you say this, I don't seem to have anything to say. Originally, I was willing to let you go, but you don't know me, and the most annoying thing about me is that others threaten me. A few years ago, when I was a low-level person, I was threatened and harassed by others, so I vowed never to be coerced by others again. You say you have nothing, but at least you are still the leader of the Hui tribes. You don't want to inquire about my Wang's origin, I turned out to be a fang in Chang'an City. With the money of two times a month, he can barely make ends meet. So, you're single, I'm more single. I'll admit you're telling you for a reason, but I'm just going to be alone today. Let's not talk about it, the sun is about to set, and the setting is the unitary time, what I said will not change a word, the unitary time is positive, let's see you on the battlefield. Wang Yuan waved his hand and stood up.

Guli Pei Luo was stunned, he frowned and pondered Wang Yuan's tone, wondering if Wang Yuan was deliberately speaking like this. But seeing Wang Yuan stand up, he waved his hand and said, "Send off!" Then he turned and walked out of the tent. The generals and guards around him also got up and walked out of the tent, looking like a single person, and they couldn't help but feel anxious.

Several guards stepped forward and began to pack up the wooden boxes, tables and chairs, and began to dismantle the tent. Why don't you tell us what you really want us to be? As long as I don't make all my people your captives, many things can be discussed. ”

Wang Yuan stopped and turned around, stood in the sunset outside the tent, looked at Guli Peiluo and said, "First of all, apologize for your big words just now." ”

Guli Peiluo was speechless, is this guy really the generalissimo who dominates the world? How can he be a little childish, so childish and impulsive in his words and deeds.

"That's it, I shouldn't have said something like that and apologized to Wang Xiangguo." Guli Peiluo stood up and said.

Wang Yuan smiled: "It's pretty much the same." Don't tear it down, keep talking. ”

Everyone sat down again, and Wang Yuan said with a smile: "It seems that you are indeed sincere, and I will not insist that you surrender the city unconditionally." I know you want to keep your soldiers and horses, or you won't be able to get back to the grassland. Well, I have a few conditions here, you can listen to it. ”

"Please."

"First. From today on, you must withdraw from the Tang Realm, and from now on, you must not set foot in the Tang Realm, and you will never violate our borders. ”

"Yes, I promise this."

"Article 2. The materials and property you plundered my Datang will also be returned. Do not think that I do not know what you have plundered all this time. A large number of supplies in Xiongwu City have been transported by you, and I want you to spit them all out. ”

"This ...... You can also. I agreed. ”

"Okay, number three. From this year onwards, you must pay me an annual tribute of 50,000 horses, 50,000 cattle, 50,000 sheep, and 100,000 furs. This is as compensation for the death and wounding of my soldiers and horses, and it is also the money for the lives of your 30,000 soldiers and horses. ”

"What? 50,000 horses, 100,000 cattle and sheep, 100,000 furs? Are you robbing? Guli Peiluo shouted.

"Every year, huh? Not the total, right? As long as you are still the master of the grassland, you will have to pay tribute every year, understand? Wang Yuan said lightly.

"Impossible, the horses, cattle and sheep raised on my grassland every year are only hundreds of thousands, all for you, how can we live? You're robbing, it's definitely not going to happen. Guli Peiluo said loudly.

Wang Yuan's face turned cold: "You can refuse after you think about it." On the huge northern grassland, you can raise millions of cattle and sheep every year, and you should be happy as long as you are so little. I don't care how you get it, you go to the Hu people in the north and the east to steal and rob, that's your business. As long as you don't come to my idea. ”

"No, you're driving us to a dead end." Guli Peiluo waved his hand and said loudly.

Wang Yuan shut up and was silent. He just sat quietly and stood still, quietly looking at Guli Peiluo. No matter what Guli Peiluo said, Wang Yuan just didn't say anything. Guli Peiluo and the people around him were very puzzled, and they didn't know what kind of medicine Wang Yuan was selling in the gourd. But Guli Peiluo quickly understood what Wang Yuan was doing. He saw Wang Yuan glance sideways at the western sky from time to time, where a round of sunset was only a few feet high, and it was rapidly falling towards the horizon.

Guli Peiluo scolded angrily in his heart, this dog thief is a madman, he is waiting for the sunset. Sunset is the time of unitary, and he can attack the city when he waits for unitary. This madman didn't even think about the consequences.

Guli Peiluo couldn't let Wang Yuan's crazy idea succeed, and finally gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "That's it, it's up to you." Every year I give you war horses, cows, and sheepskins. ”

Wang Yuan opened his mouth and smiled: "Don't be reluctant, maybe you should think about it again." ”

"No reluctance, I promised you. Are there any other requirements? It's better not to have any, and if there are other harsh requirements, I can't agree to it. Guli Peiluo said anxiously.

"One more small request. However, this should not be difficult for the Great Khan. Wang Yuan said.

Guli Pei Luo frowned, but listened to Wang Yuan continue: "I want the original of the loan agreement you signed with Li Mao, but you are useless anyway." ”

Guli Peiluo didn't understand what Wang Yuan wanted for the text of the agreement, but this thing was really useless to himself, Fan didn't want to entangle with Wang Yuan here, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give it to you." It's gone, is it, can you make a contract? ”

Wang Yuan waved his hand again and said, "Wait, I still have a small request." ”

Guli Peiluo said angrily: "Are you finished? ”

Wang Yuan raised his middle finger and said to him: "The last one, just this one." I've drunk a pot of water, do you still care about this spoonful? ”

Guli Peiluo smacked his lips and said, "Say." ”

Wang Yuan smiled like a profiteer, and stared at Mo Yan beside Guli Peiluo with malicious eyes: "Your son, right?" I liked him so much that I wanted to keep him with me for a while. ”

Guli Pei Luo was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what Wang Yuan meant, and said angrily: "What do you mean? Don't you believe us? ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "It's not that I don't believe it, it's that I don't believe it at all." Your son is with me, and my heart is at peace. Don't worry, our life is better than yours, and I promise that you will raise your son for nothing and not lose a single hair. As long as you are in good order, in ten or eight years, I will definitely return it to you as it is. ”

Mo Yan Sili panicked: "Father Khan, don't believe him, my son can't be a hostage, they will kill me." Father Khan, you must not believe them, the Tang people cannot be trusted. ”

Guli Peiluo frowned and looked at Wang Yuan and said, "Can you replace it with someone else?" I have this one son, and I expect him to succeed to the throne. You can't let me cut off the heir. ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "I said, as long as you act according to the agreement, I won't hurt him a single hair." His life and death do not depend on me, but on you and you. ”

Guli Peiluo frowned and was silent, and the grinding Yan beside him begged repeatedly, and Guli Peiluo was in a dilemma. He saw that Wang Yuan was looking back at the sunset again, which had already set on the horizon and would soon set. Finally, Guli Peiluo gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

"Mo Yan Sili, for me to return to the tribe, I can only wronged you. Wang Xiangguo will not treat you badly, he is a man with a face, if he breaks his promise, isn't it better to be a beast? ”

Wang Yuan rolled his eyes and said in his heart: You take the opportunity to scold me, I don't care about you, I know if you are unhappy, so what if you are more comfortable?

"But Father Khan...... Isn't that son...... From now on...... Then I could not see my father's Khan. Mo Yan sobbed tears like rain. It's not to see his father Khan or anything, he is scared enough, and he will become a hostage prisoner from now on, can he be happy?

"Son, Father Khan will repay you, stay in the south for a good life, study more and learn more skills, and when you return to the grassland, Father Khan will pass on the throne to you and make you the lord of the grassland." Guli Peiluo has a deep affection for his son, and he looks like a loving father.

The matter has come to this point, and Mo Yanli also knows that there is no way, so he nodded in agreement with tears in his eyes. After kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to Guli Peiluo, two Shence Army soldiers took him by the arm and led him out of the tent.

Guli Peiluo looked at his son's back, his eyes were moist, and he turned his head to stare at the smiling Wang Yuan and shouted: "It's all your will, what are you waiting for?" If you really want to force me to fight you to the death, I can't do it. ”

Wang Yuan laughed, waved his hand and said, "Draw up the contract, sign it." Zhao Qing ordered someone to prepare a banquet, and after the agreement, we fought with Huairen Khan. If the battle can't be fought, the wine table still has to be divided. ”

……

In the early morning, under the castle of Toyoshu, the temperature has not yet become very hot. On the battlefield of yesterday's war, many figures were silently busy. They had been in the land of death since the early hours of the morning, they wrapped their heads and faces in cloth towels to resist the foul smell of the decomposing corpses on the ground, they sweated, frowned, gritted their teeth, lifted soulless bodies from the ground, pulled them out, and put them on flatbed carts.

When the bodies were piled up like hills, the carts headed northwest, to a natural rainwater ditch a few miles to the northwest, and threw all the bodies into it.

Along the way, there was an endless stream of carriages full of corpses, like a busy trade road. It's just that instead of hope, they are transporting death.

In the mile-long deep ditch, many corpses were stacked. The deep ditch on the east side is piled up with the corpses of the fallen soldiers of the Shence Army, and on the west side is the resting place of the fallen soldiers of the Hui Army. In the middle of the two piles of bones, there was another hill of corpses. The reason why these corpses were stacked separately was because it was impossible to tell whether they were the Shence Army or the Uighurs. For not only have they been unrecognizable, but they have all been trampled to smithereens, and have become a blur of flesh and blood. Many corpses are entangled, you have me, I have you, and the broken shells can no longer be distinguished and separated. Last night, thousands of vultures pecked at the bones of corpses on the battlefield, and the wolves howled and tore through the night, and many of the corpses were turned into bones and debris, and it was impossible to tell which side it was
