"I heard from my subordinates that you want to cooperate with Dragon Leader for a long time?"

Zhai Jiong looked at the Huns in front of him leisurely. While analyzing the information he knew about the Barbarians, he also observed the military commander's expression, hoping to understand what the military commander was thinking.

Longling has a very important mission, which is to open the Hetao Qianghu market as soon as possible to promote business. Unfortunately, in the early stage, it had to show its fangs in order to survive. In the eyes of the Qianghu tribe, its image is that of a murderous devil and a businessman who makes money with peace.

There is no intersection at all. As the top person in charge of the Hetao Territory, Zhai Jiande gradually reversed the image of the Dragon Territory. He was mentally prepared to see the results through hard work and a long time. Allowing the four tribes to redeem their people was one of the steps, and it was a once-in-a-lifetime effort.

try.

Zhai Jiong did not expect that as soon as the bait was thrown out and the nest was not ready, a fish would take the bait.

There must be a monster when something goes wrong. The leader of the Barbarian Bull Tribe approached him so quickly, and Zhai Jiong was extremely worried. Even though he looked relaxed on the outside, he was actually a little nervous inside.

"Sir, would you like to live in peace with the Qiang and Hu tribes and do some small business?" Commander Wu said cautiously.

A flash of surprise flashed across Zhai Jiong's eyes.

The Hun leader in front of him was much smarter than he thought. He was clearly testing the situation. From his tone, the emphasis was on "doing some small business", indicating that the other party who came to talk about cooperation was not just talking nonsense, but had seen the dragon leader's next step.

Development plan. Although part of the information was revealed when they promised to redeem people, it is quite good for a Qiang and Hu leader to realize this quickly, at least it is not a pure bravery.

Zhai Jiong thought for a while and said: "It is naturally good to live in peace with the Qiang and Hu and improve people's livelihood."

His answer focused on "peaceful coexistence" and did not mention "business". However, combined with the context, it was clear that he was willing to live in peace and do business to make a small amount of money. The so-called "improving people's livelihood" does not mean "doing business".

Is this a euphemism for "business"? Seeing the excitement and surprise in Commander Wu's eyes, Zhai Jiong was finally convinced that the Xiongnu leader was indeed not stupid and had truly understood the true meaning of his words.

Wu Shuai said: "There are many things in Dragon Territory that the Qiang and Hu need. The Qiang and Hu tribes are used to robbing and plundering whatever they like, and they especially like to rob Han people. This is also the reason why Dragon Territory was attacked many times not long after its establishment. So.

With the current prestige of the Dragon Territory, there are not many tribes that dare to come to you for trouble. When the Dragon Territory's stone city wall is built, no tribe will be willing to make trouble for itself. However, each tribe will feel afraid of the Dragon Territory.

Be on guard, and instinctively keep away from the Dragon Leader. Not many tribes are willing to do business with you."

"Longling needs a bridge to cooperate with the Qiang and Hu tribes."

"The Manniu Department is willing to be this bridge!"

Zhai Jiong looked at Wu Shuai silently, with a calm expression on his face, but his heart was turbulent. The Manniu Department took the initiative to ask Ying to cooperate, which was naturally a good thing for Longling to open the Loop market, but Zhai Jiong still had doubts in his heart.

"What kind of cooperation do you want?" Zhai Jiong said calmly.

"Exchange war horses, cattle, sheep, and Han people for things that the grassland tribes lack, and trade them with other tribes to earn the price difference. Food, soldiers, armor, and many of your Han people's daily necessities are very popular on the grasslands,"

"Your tribe fought with the Dragon Leader not long ago, why do you want to cooperate with us?"

"For the survival of the tribe!"

Commander Wu solemnly said: "The Huns are the weakest in Hetao and have always been suppressed by the Xianbei and Qiang people. Whenever a large tribe appears among us Huns, something bad usually happens soon. In order to survive, sometimes we have to

If you don't take risks out of desperation, the Zhehan tribe wants to increase its prestige and protect itself by attacking the Dragon Leader, and so does the Manniu tribe."

"The Manniu Tribe was originally a large tribe. It suffered heavy losses in the last battle and fell to a medium-sized tribe. It can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. For the time being, there is no need to worry about being suppressed by the large Xianbei and Qiang tribes. It ended like this, and it is no longer feared by other tribes. It seems

It’s not bad, but once the Barbarians regain their strength in the future, it will still be difficult to avoid such a situation, and I won’t be willing to do so!”

"Why can't the Xiongnu have large tribes?"

"Why should the Huns be oppressed by the Xianbei and Qiang people?"

"I can't change the status quo, but Dragon Leader gives me a glimmer of hope."

"The Dragon Leader is willing to trade with the Qiang and Hu tribes for a long time. Now this news is only known to four tribes. The other three tribes don't seem to realize this opportunity yet, so I think the Manniu tribe has the upper hand. With the size of the Manniu tribe,

With our strength, we can resell Longling’s goods to more Qiang and Hu tribes, and let them know that Longling has many good things to exchange, and help you gradually develop the market.”

"Helping Longling develop the market, I believe that the Manniu tribe can also benefit from it. Our people are afraid of poverty. If the tribe can live a prosperous life, more Huns will be willing to join the Manniu tribe. I hope that the Manniu tribe will

It can eventually become a super-large tribe and break the shackles on the necks of the Huns. The better the Barbarian tribe develops, the more and more Qiang and Hu tribes will realize the benefits of cooperating with the Dragon Leader."

"It's not easy for ordinary Han strongholds to keep their wealth, but the Dragon Territory is different. Few people are willing to touch you. We, the Manniu tribe, are no longer a big tribe, but there are not many tribes in the south of the Hetao that are stronger than us. In the Hetao, strength determines the number of tribes.

How much property is entitled to it? Compared with the other three small tribes, the Manniu tribe is more capable of protecting its own property..."

Commander Wu poured out his thoughts in one breath, and became more and more excited as he spoke. By the time he finished speaking, he was already blushing.

After Zhai Jiong reported to Yu Buzhi, he agreed to Commander Wu's request on behalf of Long Ling.

Cooperation is beneficial to Longling's long-term strategy, and the Manniu Department is indeed a good partner. Longling has no reason to refuse the other party's request.

Longling took the initiative to release the remaining thousands of captured tribesmen from the Manniu Tribe, fully demonstrating their sincerity in cooperation, and the Manniu tribesmen burst into cheers. Commander Wu immediately discussed the details of cooperation with Longling, and discussed the list of transaction materials, exchange prices, etc.

An agreement was reached. Overall, the transaction price offered by Longling to the Manniu Tribe was a good profit, leaving a profit margin for the Manniu Tribe to resell to other tribes. Wu Shuai happily led his tribe back to prepare for the transaction.

supplies.

At the city wall construction site, Yu Buzhi and Xu Shu watched the Manniu tribesmen leave.

Yu Buzhi was fully disguised and was not worried about being recognized by players wandering around the Dragon Territory. Xu Shu could not change into a disguise suit, but this little problem was hard to catch him. He often hung out in the Dragon Territory and had already prepared a set.

The outfit is similar to a camouflage suit.

Two men in black robes were chatting.

"Yuan Zhi, this military commander is a sensible person."

"Yes, it can be seen that the leader of the dragon wants to open up the market. He immediately made up his mind and took the initiative to come over to discuss cooperation. He was much more decisive than the other three tribes. Commander Wu is not too stupid. If his subordinates guessed correctly, the Manniu tribe will

Most of them are operating in the central and southern part of the Hetao. When the Xianbei and Qiang tribes join forces to suppress them, the Manniu tribe will definitely find a way to drag us down..."

“Expected.”

Yu Buzhi smiled and said: "We need people to help open up the market. They need to find allies to fight against the oppression of other ethnic groups, and they can only unite with the Han forces. Now among the Han forces in Hetao, we, Long Ling and Zhu Cheqi, are the only ones who can fight against Xianbei and

The Qiang people are a bit of a deterrent. Who would they look for if not us? Fortunately, it takes time for the Barbarian tribe to grow. By the time they grow enough to attract pressure from other ethnic groups, the walls of Longling and Yema City will have been erected. By then, we will have to fight

The initiative is in our hands, it is not their turn to provoke."

Xu Shu also laughed: "That's exactly it."

"I'm sparring with Zilong, what do you want from me?" Qu Chen hurried over.

"We are sparring again. It seems that you have to fight every day to have fun. How is the outcome?"

"Both will win or lose, we are evenly matched! Brother, let me tell you, Zilong's marksmanship..."

"Stop it!"

Yu Buzhi quickly stopped and said, "Go and order the five hundred Poluqi and accompany me and Yuan Zhi to Fushi."

Qu Chen frowned and said, "Brother, wouldn't it be better to let Zilong take Beiying?"

Yu Buzhi can directly go to the inn to teleport to Fushi. Even if teleportation is not possible, the immortal player does not need to send cavalry to escort him. Qu Chen is asked to bring five hundred cavalry with him. This is obviously to ensure Xu Shu's safety. Xu Shu and Qu Chen

Everyone knew it well. When he went to Fushi to visit Zhu Jun, he also brought Xu Shu with him, which showed that there was something important. Qu Chen suggested that Beiying go because the strength of the Beiying cavalry was higher than that of the Polu cavalry. After all, it was the Peiping military department.

The cavalry troops that came out were better able to protect Xu Shu's safety.

"I haven't even met Zilong before I broke up with him."

"Okay." Qu Chen said no more, turned around and left.

The five hundred Polu cavalry quickly assembled outside the town. Xu Shu mounted his horse and headed south with Qu Chen and others. Yu Buzhi was not good at riding, so in order not to slow down the troops, he decided to act alone. It was estimated that the time was almost up.

, Shi Shiran walked to the inn and chose to teleport.

When we came to Fushi again, the population in the city had obviously increased a lot.

Although there is still a large population gap, it is no longer as deserted and depressed as it was in the early days of "Bringing Order to Order". There are gradually more pedestrians on the streets, more shops are opening, and most importantly, there are many more free players in the city.

Zhi wore a black robe and a black scarf, hiding all information, and walked leisurely on the streets of Fushi.

When they were about to arrive outside the county government, they saw Xu Shu and Li Fu riding over with Polu from a distance.

Qu Chen's identity was also kept secret. He wore the clothes of ordinary Polu Cavalry and mingled with the crowd. As usual, the one who showed up was Li Fu, the deputy general of Polu Cavalry.

The time calculation was very accurate, and Yu Buzhi was very satisfied.

They met outside the county house, identified themselves to the defenders, and were quickly welcomed into the house.

This scene naturally attracted the attention of many players present. The two men in black robes walked together and turned heads very quickly. Someone soon revealed that they were the Dragon Leader Cavalry. In fact, the Polu Cavalry was seen by many players when they left the Dragon Leader.

An NPC who deliberately concealed his identity walked out of the leader and met the player wearing a camouflage suit outside the county house. There was a high chance that he was the mysterious Lord of the Dragon Territory, which aroused great curiosity among everyone.

Seeing that Long Ling's people were quickly welcomed into the county government, the onlookers had no choice but to disperse.

The county officials did not bring Yu Buzhi and others to the living room, but directly brought him, Xu Shu, and Qu Chen into Zhu Jun's study, which showed Zhu Jun's trust in Yu Buzhi.

When he walked into the study, Zhu Jun was reading a letter.

"I've seen Mr. Rider."

"Sit down. Bu Zhi came just in time. Take a look at this." Zhu Jun handed over the letter in his hand.

Yu Buzhi picked it up and took a look. It was signed Liu Junlang.

Liu Yan’s letter!

The general idea of ​​the letter was that Yizhou Prefecture had no ill intentions towards Zhao Bu, and that Zhao Bu was transferred away from Ba County for another important purpose. However, Zhao Bu misunderstood the good intentions of the prefecture government and reacted decisively, even sending troops to confront the prefecture troops, which affected the Yizhou Prefecture. It was extremely bad, and the state government lost its face. In order to maintain the rule of the Han Dynasty and the majesty of the state government, it was absolutely impossible for him to allow Zhao to continue to occupy Bajun. I hope Zhu Jun could understand. However, Liu Yan also said that he would face up to Zhao's role in Bajun. We will try our best to come up with a relatively suitable solution.

"Sir, what is this?" Yu Buzhi looked confused.

Zhu Jun said: "After regaining Fushi, I wrote another letter to Liu Junlang, hoping that he would remember Zhao's contribution to the Yizhou rebellion and try to be more lenient and not make things irreversible. This is his reply. . ”

Only then did Yu Buzhi find out that Zhu Jun had sent a second letter later, which showed that he was very concerned about Zhao Bu's affairs. Zhu Jun had almost no friendship with Zhao Bu, so it was enough to write a letter out of public interest, but he later wrote another He received the second letter, presumably for Yu Buzhi's sake. The key was that he had not mentioned it to Yu Buzhi beforehand. If Liu Yan hadn't agreed and let Zhao Bu go, Yu Buzhi would have been just fine. Come here, just in time for the meeting, maybe Zhu Jun won't let Yu Buzhi know after the matter is done.
