Yelu Eris opened his white teeth and laughed twice, this caravan is very obedient to the rules of the grassland, the more powerful people are, the more they like to see others obey the rules, when Yelu Lisi heard his subordinates report to him, he was very happy, the reason why he didn't come to see the caravan these days was to see if this caravan could abide by the rules of the grassland.

The result was to the satisfaction of the caravan, not only did the caravan not do business privately, but also helped the herdsmen to see a doctor, Yeluriss heard that the caravan brought bone-setting medicine was very useful, and also helped a child to treat a broken leg, if it were not for the caravan's medical skills the child would be crippled.

"Your first time in the Pine Desert Governor's Mansion?"

After Wang Peng introduced himself, he invited Yelu Lisi to sit next to the fire, cut off a piece from the roasted sheep and handed it to Yelu Lisi: "We are the caravan of the Zhen family in Hengzhou, last year in the Yinshan area, there was a caravan killed by horse thieves, the reason why I came to the Songmo Governor's Mansion this time is to inquire about the news of the horse thieves and the whereabouts of the clansmen?" Has Captain Zhenwei heard about the horse thieves and the whereabouts of our people? ”

Yelu Lisi shook his head after hearing this, and the doubts in his heart were swept away, the guards of this caravan were very good, and the reason why he asked Wang Peng these words was to know what they were doing here?

"I heard that there is a very powerful horse thief west of Yanshan, there have been fewer and fewer caravans from the west in recent years, I am very sympathetic to the matter of your caravan, those damn horse thieves are too hateful, if you dare to come to the Song Mo Governor's Mansion, I will definitely avenge you!"

As long as there is no tribe on the grassland, there is no horse thief who does not hate horse thieves, horse thieves do not dare to rob herdsmen, but will rob the caravans, without caravans there is no opportunity to exchange goods, let alone hear news from other tribes, caravans for these tribes are the blood flowing in the body, the blood does not flow, the life of the herdsmen will become more difficult.

Wang Peng's words are naturally nonsense, the Zhen family's caravan was indeed sacked by horse thieves last year, but it has nothing to do with Wang Peng, let alone the Khitans, these words are just to dispel concerns about the caravan.

Wang Peng took off the wine jug on his waist and took a sip of it himself, before handing it to Yelu Lisi and said, "We have brought a lot of commodities that are in short supply on the grassland this time, please Captain Zhenwei allow us to trade with your herdsmen?" ”

"I agree that you can trade with the herdsmen of the Dierabu and exchange your salt, iron, and cloth for cattle and sheep here, but the number of war horses cannot exceed three hundred, and I am very interested in the medicinal materials you have brought, and I hope you can use these medicinal materials to pay taxes?"

After speaking, Yelu Lisi took a sip of Wang Peng's wine bag, suddenly stopped, put the wine bag under his nose and sniffed it: "This is the Sogdian Sanle pulp, it has been a long time since I drank such a good wine, did the caravan bring such a good wine this time?" ”

Wang Peng cursed in his heart the shameless Sogdians, who were obviously home-brewed soju, but were said by the Sogdians to be the best Sanle pulp brought from the Western Regions.

But this is not bad, the more things are shipped from distant places, the more expensive they are, and Wang Peng is not ready to break this secret. Wang Peng waved his hand to the people around him, and after a while, a few guards came over with a few jars, put the jars in front of Yelu Lisi, and said, "The best Sanle pulp, dedicated to the most noble leader of the Diera Tribe?" ”

Jerulius laughed and said: "I don't take your gifts in vain, these wines are counted in your taxes, if there is still this wine, a jar of wine for the best war horse, remember to bring more of this wine next time, those Sogdians are only willing to sell us a hundred jars of such good wine at a time, saying that they don't have much wine in their hands, and your wine is robbed from the Sogdians?" ”

Wang Peng had seen the Sogdians doing business, very shrewd, in later generations, the Sogdians were using the hunger sales method to sell these soju, a pot of three catties of soju can be exchanged for the best war horse, such a war horse can be sold at least sixty or seventy in the Tang Dynasty, more exaggerated than robbery, so the Sogdians will not sell more such wine, each tribe will sell a hundred jars, not enough for those steppe nobles to drink.

Since the Sogdians did this, Wang Peng thought that he was not as shrewd as the Sogdians in business, so there was no need to change this situation, and he did not need so many war horses now.

Wang Peng said sadly: "These wines are all controlled by the Sogdians, and we don't have much wine in our hands, but we will leave half of the wine in our hands in the Songmo Governor's Mansion, and we will take the remaining half to Murowei?" ”

"Murowe!" Yelu Lisi hated and said: "You don't want to go to Murowei, we are already preparing to fight with Murowei, it is better to send a caravan to stay away, those Murowei savages will not entertain you with the best cattle and sheep?" ”

"Why are you fighting with the Murowe?" Wang Peng was surprised.

"Isn't that enough that they have occupied the land of our ancestors?" Yelu Eris slammed his fist on the ground very angrily and said: "The royal court has gathered the leaders of the various tribes, and is ready to completely eliminate the yellow head, as well as Dongmurwei and Da Lou are among the blows this time, so don't go to Murowei to do business, just go back after doing business here!" ”

Wang Peng thanked Yelu Lisi for his kindness, and things are developing in the direction he set at the beginning, but the Khitan people are really going to be in trouble if they want to kill the Murwei people, and the Murwei people will definitely not be able to beat the Khitans, since they can't beat the Khitans, the Murwei people will not stupidly wait for the Khitans to kill, usually they will go far to the north and west, which will inevitably run into the Wuluo Protectorate, especially the Yellow Head is not weak, and he can't beat the Khitans, but he can beat the Wuluo Protectorate, The reason why Wang Peng did not leave the Songmo Governor's Mansion immediately after publicizing the legend of the Khitan ancestors was that he was worried that the escalation of the war between the two sides would affect the Wuluo Protectorate, which was not his own plan.

"We also heard about the legends of the Khitan ancestors on the grassland, and we didn't expect that the Murwei people would occupy the upper reaches of the Huang River and the Laoha River, which is indeed an unforgivable thing, but when the war is together, there will be countless Khitan good men spilling their blood on the battlefield, can't we sit down and discuss?"

"Talking about it in this way, will the people of Muwei take the initiative to give up Huanghe and Laohahe?"

Over the years, the Khitans have been bullied by An Lushan, although they have won more and lost less on the battlefield, but An Lushan does not have to worry about the problem of soldiers, and tens of thousands of people are not painful to An Lushan, but they are hurtful to the Khitans, so the Khitan people have not had a good time these years, and they have long held back a wave of anger in their chests, and now they finally have a chance to vent, this battle is not a battle for the Huanghe River and the Laoha River, but more of an excuse to loot the Murwei people.
