Chapter 60: Barbarian King Samoko (please read, please vote)
If I were to use an idiom to describe Wang Hong's current mood, it would undoubtedly be terrible.
He is determined to join Mi Yang and start a career together with her.
But he didn't expect that the first task Mi Yang gave him seemed to be in danger of being failed.
It was obvious that the Wuxi soldiers on the opposite side did not understand Chinese. What was even sadder was that Wang Hong did not understand Barbarian either.
Messenger, messenger, if you don’t understand the language, how can you use it?
Wang Hong thought that Mi Yang was still in the public security city and hoped that he would bring back reinforcements from Wuxi to assist him.
But now he is likely to return without success. If Mi Yang knew that the result of sending him as an envoy to the Wuxi Barbarians would be this, he would definitely be extremely disappointed with himself.
But Wang Hong still thinks everything is too simple.
A language barrier doesn't just mean mission failure.
When the Wuxi barbarian leader opposite saw him taking the initiative to say hello, Wang Hong looked disdainful in answering.
In addition, the behavior of Wang Hong and others was suspicious, and the words they spoke were as if they were written in heaven and could not be understood at all. This kind of situation that could not be judged by common sense aroused strong doubts in the hearts of the little leaders of Wuxi Man.
After doubt comes caution.
Although the Wuxi Barbarian King has always submitted to Liu Bei's rule, it does not mean that the entire Wuxi Barbarian tribe has good intentions towards the Han people.
Just a dozen years ago, Wuxi barbarians and Han people were fighting each other.
The little leader of the Wuxi Barbarians was wary, and the eyes he looked at Wang Hong and the others gradually became cold and stern.
Just when he was about to order the barbarians beside him to attack Wang Hong and others, a man suddenly appeared in Wang Hong's team. This man was Mi Yang's personal retainer Mi Zhong.
I saw Mi Zhong bringing out one person from the team. This person was the person he asked from Fan Min, who was in charge of Wuling County, according to Mi Yang's instructions when he was passing through Wuling County.
This man is a native of Wuling County and knows some Wuxi barbarian language.
After Mi Zhong took the man out and whispered a few words to him, the man hurried forward and chirped a few words to the Wuxi Barbarian leader opposite.
Then the little leader of Wuxi Barbarians also chirped a few words in reply to that man.
After a chatty exchange between the two of them, the Wuxi Man leader finally learned the identity, origins and purpose of Wang Hong and others.
After knowing that Wang Hongnai was the envoy sent by Liu Beifang, the attitude of the Wuxi Barbarian leader obviously improved a lot.
Although he was somewhat hostile to the Han people, the current Wuxi Barbarian King Samoko respected Liu Bei very much.
The other Han people had just fallen. Facing the envoy sent by Liu Beifang, he did not dare to be negligent.
After knowing everything, the Wuxi Barbarian leader immediately sent people to report the matter to Wuxi Barbarian King Shamoko. And he himself led the way with Wang Hong and his party, slowly walking towards their settlement.
go.
Although Wang Hong did not understand Wuxi Barbarian language, he could understand the other party's expressions and movements.
Wang Hong saw that the Wuxi Barbarian leader was leading the way, so he followed him and slowly walked towards the Wuxi Barbarian's inner settlement.
Along the way, Wang Hong had been quietly sizing up Mi Zhong.
When he set off from the public security city that day, Mi Yang arranged some guards for him, and Mi Zhong was one of them.
Wang Hong, who was good friends with Mi Yang, actually knew Mi Yang's personal attendant.
On that day, Mi Yang arranged Mi Zhong in the team escorting him. Wang Hong thought it was just to better protect him. Now that he thought about it, Mi Yang had other plans when he arranged Mi Zhong beside him.
Thinking of this, Wang Hong couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, he used to claim to be a scholar and was quite talented, but today, on his first mission, he made an almost irreparable oversight.
Wang Hong, who has gone through ups and downs in life, has seen many things.
He no longer had the arrogance he had as a member of a famous family when he was young. He bowed to Mi Zhong and said,
"Without taking a step today, Hong has made a big mistake."
Seeing Wang Hong thanking him, Mi Zhong, who had always kept his own rules, couldn't help but hurriedly stepped aside.
As a domestic servant, he was not qualified to be worshiped by scholars.
After dodging Wang Hong's thanks, Mi Zhong hurriedly said, "The king is serious."
Facing Mi Zhong's refusal, Wang Hong just smiled faintly.
Following the leadership of the Wuxi Barbarian leader, Wang Hong and his party quickly entered the main gathering place of Wuxi Barbarians located deep in the Xiong River.
At this moment, the barbarian soldiers sent by the Wuxi barbarian leader to report Samoko just turned around.
The barbarian soldier brought instructions from Shamoko.
After receiving Shamo Kexin's instructions, the Wuxi Man leader looked at Wang Hong and his party with more kindness. Then he took the initiative to take Wang Hong and his party to another place.
When Wang Hong and others saw this, they didn't understand where the Wuxi Barbarian leader was going to take them, but they had already come this far. If the other party had harmful intentions to them, they would have done it long ago, so why bother taking them there?
of.
Therefore, Wang Hong and others felt very at ease.
After following the Wuxi man's little leader through several puddles and through several dense forests, Wang Hong and others came to an open space carved out by manpower in the mountain forest.
I saw that this open space occupies a small area and is surrounded by trees that have not yet been cut down.
In this open space, stone chairs are placed in an orderly manner, and in front of each seat is a "food table" made of tree stumps.
There is a huge stone chair just above the two rows of seats. The stone chair is nearly two feet long and about one foot wide. The huge size can be said to be a seat, rather than a stone bed.
At this time, lying on the stone bed was a strong foreign man with a bloody face and protruding blue eyes.
I saw the strong man with his upper body exposed in the cold winter, with only a colorful tiger skin covering his shoulders to keep out the cold.
A huge tiger head was used as a belt buckle around his waist, which tightly bound the knee armor of his lower body to his body.
Next to the stone bed of the strong foreign man, there is a caltrop bone. If you look carefully, you can see that there are still unwashed blood stains and some kind of white flowers on the caltrop bone.
object.
The strong man has a strong body, big shoulders and round waist. Although he is lying on his back on the stone bed as if taking a nap, his posture does not make people feel lazy. Instead, it makes people feel like he is like a dog ready to go.
Like a tiger.
It's not like Wang Hong and Mi Zhong have never seen fierce generals, especially Mi Zhong, who has been following Mi Yang. He has also seen Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, and even Jin Ma Chao.
These people are all famous tiger generals in the world, but compared to the five tiger generals Guan, Zhang, Zhao, Mahuang, the man in front of him has an unabashed aura and is full of wildness.
Seeing this man with such momentum, Wang Hong and others were secretly amazed.
They all guessed that the person in front of them was the main purpose of their trip - the Barbarian King Samoko.
No wonder that more than ten years ago, the Wuxi Barbarians and the Han people were still in a state of constant attack and killing. But when Shamoko came to power, he immediately suppressed the Wuxi Barbarians and no longer had any influence on Jingzhou under Liu Bei's rule.
Have an attack.
Moreover, even the previous Wuling governors appointed by Liu Bei never sent a single soldier to attack the Wuxi barbarians.
It turns out that all this is because Samoko himself is an unparalleled warrior.
The Wuxi Barbarian King Samoko, who was originally taking a nap, noticed the arrival of Wang Hong and others. He opened his copper bell-like eyes on the stone bed and turned to look at Wang Hong and others.
