As a clan member of the Azure King's tribe, Yelusak is surrounded by experts to protect him. This young man who wields a battle ax is Duke, Yelusak's personal bodyguard, and is also a leader among the younger generation in the capital. But in front of him,
For a top figure like Lin Feng, such a warrior is simply ignored. Lin Feng is good at assassination. Seeing the battle ax coming towards him, Lin Feng swung his rapier and hit the side of the battle ax.
With the force of the collision, Lin Feng swerved to Yelusak's left side and placed a thin sword across his neck.
This series of movements was as fast as lightning. If the opponent fired an arrow when Lin Feng got up, Lin Feng would have no choice but to swing his sword to protect himself. However, Yelu City Lord had no intention of firing an arrow from the beginning to the end.
Let Lin Feng take advantage of it.
"Let my city lord go, or I'll shoot you all."
"Put down the arrow, or I will kill your city lord."
"If you dare to kill my grandfather, I will kill Zhu Tianjiang."
"You can't put down your crossbows and guard the gate. No one is allowed to go out~! Even if the city lord dies, they must be buried with him."
In the study, several people began to shout in confusion. Even though Yelusak was a hostage, he showed the fierce side of Tianqing people.
"Wait a minute~ Everyone, please be quiet~!" Zhu Daguan lay on the ground panting and howling.
The crossbowmen were divided into two groups, one group aimed at Zhu Tianjiang and others, and the other group aimed at Lin Feng. Everyone had a look of fear on their faces, and they didn't know how to deal with what was happening in front of them.
The personal guard holding a battle ax looked ashamed and glared at Lin Feng angrily.
"Miss, please lift your butt, otherwise I won't have to do anything, you will kill me~!" Zhu Tianjiang's face turned red from suppressing the pressure, and he was out of breath from being suppressed.
Yelu Doha grabbed the collar of the back of Zhu Tianjiang's neck with his left hand, lifted it directly into his arms, and put the short knife in his right hand against Zhu Tianjiang's throat.
Zhu Tianjiang usually considered himself to be suave and charming. Although he was not very tall, he could still be said to be decent. But now, when his body was trapped in a mountain of flesh, Zhu Daguan realized how small he was.
"Lord City Lord, can we sit down and talk calmly?" Zhu Tianjiang looked at the situation. The generals of both sides were hostage to each other, so it was a draw.
"Huh! What's there to talk about? My azure man regards death as his home. He will kill him if he wants to. With young people like you buried with him, my death is worth it~ Hahahaha!" Yelusak let out a burst of laughter.
Zhu Tianjiang sneered and said to Yelu Doha behind him, "Miss Yelu, do you really want to die with us?"
"Hmph, you are my hostage. Your men dare not take action against me. Whoever dares to lay a finger on my grandfather, I will torture you to death in the most painful way." Yelu Douha said unkindly.
Zhu Tianjiang smiled bitterly and wondered why I was so unlucky to fall into the hands of a woman. "Lord Yelu, if I don't die, you Yangjin clan may still be saved. But if I die, I won't be buried with you and my grandson."
It’s not about the whole Yangjin clan.” Zhu Tianjiang calmed down and looked at Yelusak and said threateningly.
"Yes, if you are alive, the city lord can exchange you for Zhou Yantian's troops. But if you die, it will only mean that our Yangjin men will fight against the Uzbek rebels for a few more years. I believe that our Yangjin tribe will definitely win the final victory.
"Yes." Yelusak said proudly.
"Haha, what a joke. Zhou Yantian is not stupid. If he dares to mobilize troops to enter the Tianqing Kingdom, General Wen stationed at Hukou Pass will immediately launch troops to clear out Zhou Yantian's lair. Even if you give me to Zhou Yantian, I guarantee that he will not
I will send out one soldier at a time. However, if you are willing to cooperate with me, I, Zhu Tianxiang, can help you Yangjin clan. I believe that the Lord of Yelu City should know my record, and it is not difficult to defeat the rebellion of the Wu clan." Zhu Daguanren
At this moment, despite being held in the arms of a fat woman, he didn't look like a powerful figure, but he tried his best to sound condescending.
"What, you~ are you willing to help us, the Yangjin clan?" Yelusak's eyes gathered together and he looked at Zhu Tianjiang in disbelief.
Yelu Douha strangled his left arm and said, "You bastard, don't play tricks. You came to Tianqing Kingdom secretly, and you must have bad intentions. Grandpa, don't listen to him. Even if you can help us, I'm afraid our Yangjin clan will have to pay a lot."
Big price."
Zhu Daguan was so strangled that he couldn't breathe, so he quickly patted Yelu Doha's arm, asking him to relax.
Zhu Tianjiang gasped twice, and then he said, "Nonsense, there is no free hand-caught mutton in the world, of course I have the conditions." Zhu Tianjiang said, looked at Yelu Sak and said, "Yelu City Lord, what's the matter?
Well, let’s sit down and talk.”
Yelusak glanced at Lin Feng next to him and thought to himself, how could this old guy, who was about the same age as him, have such strong hands? It made his shoulders burn with pain when he grabbed them.
"Duke, take people to guard the door. Without the order of the city lord, anyone who takes a step will be shot on the spot!" Yelusak ordered the guard who wielded the battle axe.
The crossbowman at the door of the study carefully retreated. When the door was closed, Lin Feng also put his sword back. Zhu Yi and Daniu quickly guarded behind the door. At this time, they felt relieved. Because
Zhu Tianjiang and Xia Qing and Zhu Si agreed on a time. As long as they didn't go back before sunset, they would immediately launch troops to occupy the city. The door of the study room was small and surrounded by hard stone walls. Zhu Yi felt that even if there was an accident, he would persist until
Sunset shouldn't be a problem.
Yelu Sak and Zhu Tianjiang sat down face to face. Lin Feng and Yelu Doha each stood behind them. Miss Yelu Sak held Zhu Daguanren's shoulder with one hand, fearing that he would escape from her attack range.
"Zhu Tianjiang, as a first-class official of the Dafeng Dynasty, why did you enter Tianqing?" Yelusak asked majestically with his hands on his knees.
"Lord Yelu, the Tianqing Kingdom is currently experiencing civil strife, and your civil war is different from our civil war in Dafeng. I personally suppressed the two civil strifes in Dafeng. But in your Tianqing Kingdom, there is no one who can turn the tide.
As far as I know, the leader of the Wu tribe, Zhan Khan, is extremely brave and has the potential to unify the world. If the war continues, I am afraid that even the royal family of Yangjin will become a slave clan."
"Are you making fun of our Yangjin clan?" Yelusak stared at Zhu Tianjiang coldly.
"It's not a cancellation, I'm just stating the facts. City Lord Yelu, Zhou Yantian will not send troops. I believe your clan leader, King Yelucha, knows very well that the Wu clan has reached an agreement with Zhou Yantian. To be honest, even if you give me to Zhou Yantian
, and will not get his support. On the other hand, I came to Tianqing this time just to help your Yangjin clan defeat the Wu clan. Of course, I am not without conditions." After saying this, Zhu Tianjiang deliberately
One stop.
"What conditions?" Yelu Sak and Yelu Doha asked at the same time.
Zhu Tianjiang smiled slightly, "If I help your Yangjin clan turn defeat into victory, I hope that King Yelucha will send troops to attack Zhou Yantian. At that time, we will attack from both sides and annihilate this Dafeng traitor in one fell swoop. In addition, I hope that Tianqing Kingdom will sign an agreement with Dafeng.
According to the contract, the two parties will form an eternal alliance and shall not invade each other."
After Zhu Tianjiang finished speaking, Lin Feng frowned. He knew that Emperor Chengwu did not put forward such a condition. He just asked Zhu Tianjiang to help the Yangjin clan remain undefeated, not to help Yangjin wipe out the Wu clan.
Drop. Emperor Chengwu has ambitious goals. He wants both sides to fight for a few years. When the battle losses are almost exhausted, Dafeng will pacify Tianqing in one fell swoop. Emperor Chengwu wants to be an unprecedented emperor who opens up new territories.
"Master Zhu, are you speaking on behalf of Emperor Dafeng?" Yelusak also changed his title to Master Zhu.
"Of course." Zhu Tianjiang smiled and nodded.
"Well, since you represent Emperor Dafeng, how many troops and horses did you bring here?" Yelusak looked at Zhu Tianjiang in confusion. If a large number of troops and horses came out of the customs, why didn't he get any news? Tianqing
The country also has spies on the ground working with Zhou Yantian, so it is impossible that there is no news at all.
"Haha, do I need a large number of troops to take action? Of course, I can't just bring a caravan here. Yelu City Lord, as long as you can convince King Yelucha, I can ensure that the Yangjin clan turns defeat into victory.
"Zhu Tianjiang did not say how many troops he would bring, but he hinted that he would bring men and horses.
Yelusak's face showed an excited expression. If Dafeng can really help Tianqing, it will be a blessing for the Yangjin family.
"This is easy. As long as Master Zhu is sincerely helping our Yangjin clan, I will definitely convince the elders of the clan."
"No!" Zhu Tianjiang shook his head, "Lord Yelu, you don't understand what I mean. What I mean is that I need to convince King Yelucha to hand over all the military power of the Yangjin clan to me. I don't have the power to dispatch troops.
, I cannot influence the situation of the battle at all."
"What, you want the military power of our Yangjin clan!" Yelusak suddenly stood up.
"No, this is absolutely not possible." Yelusak shook his head and said.
"If I can't control the military, I won't be able to give orders. When none of you Yangjin warriors listen to my orders, what will I do to fight against the Uzbek people?"
"Master Zhu, didn't you say you brought troops and horses?" Yelu Doha asked.
"Even if you bring troops and horses, if you can't take the initiative, you still can't influence the situation of the battle. In fact, without a unified order, the Uzbek tribe is likely to stir up trouble and make my men and horses become spectators." Zhu Tianjiang knew that this was the case.
The most difficult thing for him to do in Tianqing.
Although Emperor Chengwu forced Zhu Tianjiang to send Tianqing as an envoy, he did not make any detailed plan. Zhu Tianjiang had been thinking about this issue. If his troops only played side games, they might not be able to fight until the end of the Year of the Monkey. Therefore, Zhu Tianjiang
Jiang wanted to take the route of Yelucha and persuade Yelucha to give him military power.
"Master Zhu, I have given you the military power, and the fate of our Tianqing Kingdom is in your hands. I'm afraid no one in the clan will agree to such a thing. What if you rebel, or deliberately send away the men of the clan?
Go to death, who can stop you?" Yelusak said seriously.
"I know this is a difficult problem to solve. If you don't give me military power, even if I lead my troops to provide support, I'm afraid it won't have much impact on the battle situation. To be honest, although the Yangjin clan has strong soldiers and horses, they have no brains.
There are not many people. Fighting does not necessarily require hard work, sometimes it also depends on brains. Therefore, the prerequisite for defeating the Uzbek tribe is to give me military power." Zhu Tianjiang said helplessly.
Yelusak was about to speak, but he heard Yelu Doha rushing to say, "Grandpa, maybe Mr. Zhu is right. Our Yangjin warriors are not afraid of death, and there are indeed not many wise generals. In fact, Mr. Zhu wants military power.
No, it’s just that this matter needs to be discussed with the king before we can decide.”
Yelu Douha said and put away the dagger, "Master Zhu, my Tianqing sons and daughters have always been true to their word. Since you come here with sincerity, then give my grandpa one day. We will give you an answer after one day."
"Okay! I also like people who are straightforward. If the city lord cannot make the decision after one day, then I have no choice but to move on and go to the royal capital in person to convince King Yelucha. Although it is a bit risky, I believe that the Yangjin clan will not dare to do anything to me.
Like this. Because if something happens to me, tens of thousands of troops from Hukou Pass will swarm over, and then the Yangjin clan will be unable to start a war on both sides." Zhu Tianjiang's words contained a threat, which means you don't want to stab me in the back. Once I die,
You will also perish.
Yelusak ordered the door of the study to be opened and escorted Zhu Tianjiang out of the castle in person. The conversation in the study was extremely confidential. Before making a decision, Yelusak knew that Zhu Tianjiang's identity must not be exposed.
Zhu Tianjiang and others left the castle without any danger and returned to the carriage shop. As soon as they arrived, the city lord Yelusak ordered people to bring wine and barbecue. If it weren't for the fact that the grandfather and grandson had to discuss how to give
Yelusak would definitely treat Zhu Tianjiang to a delicious meal after what he reported to the royal capital. But now that the matter was urgent, he could only have wine and food delivered to the carriage shop.
"How sure do you think Tian Xiang is?" Lin Feng asked cautiously.
"I don't know, but that fat girl seems to have an idea. This time when we come to Tianqing Kingdom, we have to overcome three difficulties. The first is to gain the other party's trust, and the second is to gain military power. The last point is to be able to survive the whole body.
Retreat. It is initially estimated that we will take the Yelusak route, which seems to be the right one. Whether Yelusak can delegate power to me next will depend on how far-sighted he is." Zhu Tianjiang said with a hint of worry.
.
"Okay, since that's the case, let's wait another day, but be prepared for the worst. You guys can discuss it first. I'll go outside and take a look. If I find something wrong, I'll leave the city immediately." After Lin Feng finished speaking, he quietly said to
Walking to the backyard of the carriage shop. Lin Feng never walks through the front door. To him, any wall is a door.
Zhu Tianjiang did not dare to be careless. No one could guarantee whether Yelusak and his grandson would go back on their word. Zhu Tianjiang ordered the four gunners to hide on the artillery cart. Once there was a siege by soldiers and horses, they would use
The artillery car blasted all the way out of Kecheng!
