Chapter 561: Formal Alliance, Generous Gift!
They took the lead in dismounting, and the soldiers behind them hurriedly dismounted. ()
The third prince was a casual person, because he didn't carry tents, tables and chairs, so he simply sat on the ground. Tong Yan likes people who don't have a shelf, so he also sat down in front of him.
After the two sat down, the conversation began in a harmonious atmosphere.
"Brother Zhao, although our two armies have reconciled, what are your plans next? As far as I know, the 100,000 male divisions of the Northern Yan Kingdom should have entered the hinterland of your Zhao Kingdom. I'm afraid that with the strength of your Zhao State alone, you won't be able to repel the army of the Northern Yan Kingdom, right? ”
Hearing this, Tong Yan smiled slightly: "What Brother Hong said is extremely true, my Zhao State does not have the strength to confront the army of the Northern Yan Kingdom head-on. But you may not know it, but I have sent 10,000 guerrilla soldiers and horses to ambush and block along the route of the Northern Yan Kingdom. If the army of the Northern Yan Kingdom is close to the imperial city of our Zhao Kingdom, I am afraid that it will also greatly consume their will and strength, and when the time comes, the army of the Northern Yan Kingdom will only be the end of the crossbow, and it is not impossible to defeat them. In addition, with the help of your Flying Dragon Kingdom, we will definitely win this battle. ”
The third prince smiled and said, "It seems that Brother Zhao has already planned everything, so you might as well tell your thoughts." Although my Flying Dragon Kingdom is in alliance with your Zhao Kingdom this time, if there is no benefit at all, it will be difficult for me to go back and make a difference to my father. Are you right? ”
Tong Yan nodded and smiled: "The Flying Dragon Kingdom is not only a friend of my Zhao Kingdom this time, but also kind to my Zhao Kingdom, how can you let you work hard like this in vain?" My plan is actually very simple, and I think Brother Hong should have guessed one or two. In these few days, I will lead my army to engage the Northern Yan Kingdom head-on. And what I need Brother Hong to do is to take advantage of the time when I am fighting with the Northern Yan Kingdom, I can surprise attack the Wolf Sun City of the Northern Yan Kingdom, the Wolf Sun City is the second largest city in the Northern Yan Kingdom, I think you will definitely make a lot of money when you go to raid. The army of the Northern Yan Kingdom confronted our Zhao State, and if it found that there was a fire in the rear, it would definitely send troops to help. And in this way, I am confident that I can swallow the remaining army of the Northern Yan Kingdom in one gulp. At that time, the Northern Yan Kingdom was not just as simple as losing troops and losing generals. Your Flying Dragon Kingdom can also invade part of the territory of the Northern Yan Kingdom at this time, which is by no means smaller than the gain of marching into my Zhao Kingdom. Such a win-win plan, Brother Hong, what do you think? ”
Tong Yan's suggestion coincided with the idea of the third prince, and now that the rear of the Northern Yan Kingdom was empty, it was the best time for a surprise attack. But he was still a little puzzled in his heart, so he asked Tong Yan: "Brother Zhao, of course it is a good strategy to surprise the Northern Yan Kingdom. Can you tell me why you chose to target Wolf Sun City? Wolf Sun City is already located in the hinterland of the Northern Yan Kingdom, and I will lead my troops to kill it, but I'm afraid it's more risky, right? ”
Hearing this, Tong Yan laughed and said, "Brother Hong, is it the so-called tiger who doesn't enter the tiger's den?" A few small cities on the border between the Northern Yan Kingdom and your Flying Dragon Country, even if you eat them all, how much return can you have? If you can lead someone to loot the Wolf Sun City, such a feat, I'm afraid your father will also be impressed with you, right? You are the third prince, don't you want to sit on the throne? Now is the best time to do so, and if you miss it, you'll never get back on your feet. Of course, if you don't value the throne, then go and swallow those small cities, even if it is a small city, I don't think the Northern Yan Kingdom will sit idly by. There is not much difference from me, Zhao Guo. ”
When the third prince heard this, he nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you Brother Zhao for thinking about me, I decided to send troops to Wolf Sun City." From here to Wolf Sun City, it will take five days to say the least. Please ask Brother Zhao to set a time, and I can respond in time. ”
Tong Yan had already thought about it, so he immediately said: "Seven days later! In seven days, I will go head-to-head with the army of the Northern Yan Kingdom, and that is the best time for you to surprise the Wolf Sun City! ”
"Okay, then we're settled. There is no basis for what I said, so please ask Brother Zhao to write a covenant, so that when my father blames him, I can also have a statement. ”
The third prince was really full of sincerity this time, and he deliberately asked his subordinates to bring pen and ink rice paper before leaving. Tong Yan took the pen and paper and immediately wrote on the ground. In the end, the two of them each bit their fingertips and pressed their fingerprints, and the alliance between the Zhao Kingdom and the Flying Dragon Kingdom was signed!
"Brother Hong, the green mountains don't change the green water for a long time, we will have a period in the future! At that time, I may have to trouble Brother Hong more, and if Brother Hong has any difficulties, he can also send someone to exchange letters with me. Although you and I signed a covenant today, I have made a decision today as a friend! ”
The third prince laughed and said, "I also have this intention, Brother Zhao, we will have a meeting later!" ”
The two bowed to each other, and then rode back to their own places.
Such a smooth resolution of the danger of Xisha Pass, Tong Yan was really relieved. Fortunately, the third prince of this Flying Dragon Country is not an ordinary person, if he meets a confused boss, this war may last long.
Returning to the military city of Xisha Pass, Tong Yan specially gathered all the generals and informed everyone about the alliance with the third prince. As for the contents of it, he just said a few words to the general, to prevent spies from the Northern Yan Kingdom, he had to be cautious.
There is another thing to be thankful for, that is, Zhang Long really did not die, but was imprisoned. After the third prince returned to the barracks, he released him and asked him to bring a small gift to Tong Yan.
The small gift given by the third prince was packed in a very delicate box, and after opening it, Tong Yan found that it was a small blue ball. He could feel the powerful aura emanating from this small ball, and the aura contained in just such a small ball was almost stronger than the aura contained in that large piece of holy stone.
Tong Yan didn't know why the third prince wanted to give him such a small ball, but this small ball was a priceless treasure for him now. He desperately wanted to recover his true qi as soon as possible, and this little ball was of great help to him to recover his true qi.
Tong Yan fiddled with the small blue ball that was only the size of an egg, and his heart couldn't help but have a desire to absorb the aura inside. But he didn't dare to absorb it rashly, in case he almost froze to death like last night, it would be more than worth the loss.
It happened that the nightingale walked in with a plate of chicken legs at this time, and when Tong Yan saw this, he hurriedly asked, "Nightingale, can you do me a favor?" You see, this is a gift from the third prince of the Wyvern Kingdom to me, what is this gift for? Do you know? ”
The nightingale put down the plate containing the chicken legs, picked one up and bit it fiercely, regardless of the image. As she ate, she looked into Tong Yan's hand.
But what she didn't expect was that under this look, her eyes widened suddenly. With a "grunt", she didn't have time to chew and swallow slowly, she directly swallowed the chicken thigh meat in her mouth, and then said with shock: "Soul beads!" This is a soul bead, how could the third prince of the Flying Dragon Kingdom have this? And it was given to you? ”
Listening to the nightingale's tone, this soul bead is by no means that simple. Could it be that there is some magical power in this? If this is the case, what kind of changes can it bring to Tong Yan? Will it help him get out of the Extinction Realm?
