A dead man suddenly sits up and talks to you like this. No matter how you look at this scene, it is so weird.
An ordinary person would have been so frightened that he would have screamed.
Fortunately, Prince Li had seen such a strange scene at the hands of the Eternal Life Palace. He was stunned for a while and quickly came to his senses.
Then he looked up and down at the Liao man in front of him. His eyes were empty, his face was colorless, and he was sitting motionless. Li Danqing could almost conclude that this guy was not a stranger at all.
And the person who is talking to him should be a strong man who has mastered the secret method. He is using that method to put his will on this corpse and talk to himself. And those who died are also very...
It may be the "masterpiece" created by the other party through this method.
"Which general of the Liao people are you?" Li Danqing figured out the reason and calmed down a lot, so he asked at that time.
A strange color flashed through the hollow eyes of the Liao soldier who sat up in front of him.
Then his lifeless face suddenly cracked into a smile.
The smile looked stiff and devoid of any sense of beauty. Paired with the lifeless face, it looked particularly strange and even made people feel chilled in their hearts.
"I have long heard that Prince Li is as wise as he is foolish, and has been dormant in Wuyang City for more than ten years. When I see him today, his character alone is indeed much better than that of ordinary people." The soldier from the Liao Dynasty sighed.
Li Danqing didn't answer when he heard this, but just stared at him, waiting for the other person's next words.
The soldiers of the Liao people, or the people who controlled the soldiers behind the scenes, did not seem to have the temperament to sell out. At that time, they said: "In the Great Liao Kingdom, the leader of the Black Jue tribe is Wan Yanmian."
"Wan Yanmian?" Li Danqing muttered the name, carefully thinking about the information about the other party in his mind.
His father Li Mulin spent most of the second half of his life at Longwu Pass, responsible for fighting against the Liao people. Naturally, the White Wolf Army also collected a lot of information about the Liao people. Li Mulin did not hide these things from Li Danqing.
Li Danqing naturally also recorded a lot of information about the Liao people.
This is not a secret. Li Danqing quickly found everything about this name from the dusty memories in his mind.
The Liao Kingdom had a vast territory, and in this regard, it was no less generous than the Wuyang Dynasty.
But compared to the richness and fertility of the Wuyang territory, the territory where the Liao people lived was extremely desolate. In the vast land, there were only sixteen holy mountains, compared to the twenty-eight in the Wuyang Dynasty's peak period.
The number of the Holy Mountain has nearly doubled. This also shows the lack of spiritual power in the Liao people's territory.
Probably because of this, the number of Liao people has never been too large, and they are concentrated around a few sacred mountains. Therefore, a national system centered on tribes has been formed.
Among them are the four major tribes: Hei Jue, Qinglang, Longqu and Goshawk.
Among the armies that invaded Wuyang this time, there were also four Qubu armies assembled with these four major tribes as the center.
And this Wan Yanmian is the leader of the Black Jue army, the clan leader of the Black Jue tribe, and the mountain master of the Black Jue Holy Mountain.
Of course, these are not the most important.
The most important point is that according to past intelligence, Wan Yanmian's cultivation level should have reached the realm of the Martial Lord seven or eight years ago!
…
There is no doubt that this guy in front of me will
He is a terrifying opponent, and what is even more terrifying is that among the many opponents Li Danqing will face, he is not the most terrifying one...
Li Danqing lowered his eyes and stared at the other person, asking: "So, the Wanyan clan leader is pretending to be a ghost and causing such a big battle, isn't it just to get acquainted with me?"
The smile on the lips of the Liao soldier in front of him blossomed. The brighter his smile became, the more inexplicably this scene made Li Danqing feel chilly in his heart.
"Although this is indeed my most important purpose, it is certainly not the whole story." The soldier from the Liao Dynasty said this.
"Rather than meet in person, I would rather give His Highness a good proposal."
When Li Danqing heard this, he raised his brows, put his hands on his chest, and said with great interest: "Tell me about it."
"We have heard a lot about what happened in the Wuyang Dynasty. General Li was a thorn in the side of our Daliao Kingdom and a thorn in our flesh. We originally thought that after Li Mulin died, maybe the Daliao Kingdom would have a chance to regain this Wuyang Kingdom.
The fertile land of Yang Chao, but we never thought that Wu Yang Chao could do such a thing as destroying the Great Wall."
"With such a mediocre imperial court, has His Royal Highness never thought about whether it is worthy of your service?"
When Li Danqing heard this, he probably guessed what the other party meant. He raised his eyebrows and said, "So, you are here to persuade us to surrender?"
"Persuading you to surrender?" The Liao people smiled and said, "Such a statement is not appropriate. I think I bring enough sincerity to seek cooperation from the prince."
"What kind of cooperation method?" Li Danqing asked again.
"When the Crown Prince was in Yingshui County, the situation was so bad that even the Wuyang court abandoned the Crown Prince, but the Crown Prince still chose to stay there, taking tens of thousands of his men to challenge Youyun's 400,000 troops. Now
The same was true when we sent troops to Daliao. It was the prince who led the troops out of the city despite all the opinions in the court. Even the millions of refugees outside Wuyang City were saved by the prince."
"I thought the prince's heart was actually concerned about the country and the people, and he was pretending to be righteous." The soldier from the Liao Dynasty said this. At a certain moment, a light seemed to light up in his empty eyes, as if he was looking at Li Danqing from the inside out.
It must be thorough.
"But with such a Wuyang court, not to mention that it is impossible for the prince to defeat our Daliao Kingdom, even if the prince does win, the Wuyang court's mediocrity and corruption have long been written into their bones, and the prince cannot win.
The prosperous age you want."
"Instead of doing this, it's better for the prince to cooperate with us. As long as you can capture Wuyang City, the world of Wuyang is bounded by the four counties in the west. From now on, the land of the four counties will belong to us, Daliao, and the large fertile land outside the four counties will be ours."
The land will be managed by the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince is the new king of Wuyang. We, the Liao Kingdom, are also willing to communicate with such a wise master, and we will be in harmony forever, without going to war, resting with the people, and the world will be at peace."
"What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Before Li Danqing could respond to the words of the Liao soldier, Gongsun Zhi beside him felt his heart skip a beat.
He has been working hard in the Wuyang court for many years. Although he has never entered the center of power of the Wuyang court, he is already a small group of people very close to that level.
Of course he had heard all kinds of suspicions about Li Mulin's death.
In the Wuyang Dynasty, this was almost a secret that could not be said but was recognized.
It was the late Emperor Ji Qi who designed and killed Li Mulin.
At the same time, Li Danqing was forced to go into exile in Yangshan. After the collapse of Yangshan,
, the imperial court was not only unhelpful, but also often made things worse.
With all these things going on, if Gongsun Zhi had put himself in Li Danqing's shoes, he would have been dissatisfied with the Wuyang court for a long time. When faced with such generous conditions from the Liao people, it would be difficult for him to guarantee that he would not be tempted.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Li Danqing with some worry.
However, I saw that Prince Li always had a normal expression and did not show any signs of joy or displeasure.
He just stared at the Liao soldiers and asked again: "But why should I believe what you say? If I turn my horse around and capture Wuyang City, I will suffer heavy losses, but you go back on your word and take me with you again."
If I kill him, won’t I lose more than I gain?”
The doubts in Li Danqing's words made Gongsun Zhi, who was already a little worried, feel a tremor in his heart. Li Danqing's words had clearly moved his mind, otherwise how could he consider the hidden dangers behind them?
But the Liao people who were controlled by Wan Yanmian heard this and said: "One thing the prince needs to understand is that although our country of Liao has a vast territory, it has a sparse population. Even if we really want to rule the entire Wuyang Dynasty, with our
The manpower can only rely on force to suppress it in a short period of time. Once time goes by, mistakes will definitely appear. The backlash of the collapse of the empire will be enough to destroy the Liao Kingdom. Our king has already concluded this, so he came here this time.
The only plan we have is the four counties in the western border."
"We need someone who can help us stabilize the Wuyang territory, and the Crown Prince is the best candidate for us in terms of strength and prestige, so the Crown Prince can rest assured, after all, another person may not be able to succeed
The prince’s prestige will intimidate all the counties in Wuyang.”
Wan Yanmian's words were very beautiful, but Li Danqing shook his head after hearing them: "I'm afraid, I can't agree to this deal."
Wan Yanmian didn't seem surprised by this result. He said: "That would be a pity. I thought the prince was a smart man, but I didn't want to be bound by the ignorant worldly loyalty to the emperor..."
"Of course I am smart, but Patriarch Wanyan, on the other hand, thinks that I am too stupid." But at this moment, Li Danqing interrupted the other party mercilessly and said immediately: "Patriarch Wanyan or the person behind you
The Liao Kingdom, if it is really sincere, should be honest with each other at this time, instead of relying on a few clumsy lies to try to pull me into the chariot. In this way, if you are not careful, your business will be ruined for thousands of years.
There is no room for hiding anything private."
As Li Danqing said this, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the Liao soldier with a burning gaze, as if he could penetrate the other person's empty eyes and reach the soul hiding behind them.
"What do you mean, Prince?" Wan Yanmian asked.
"If the Great Liao Kingdom really intends to become the land of the four counties in the west, then the Kuyue Holy Mountain is the main source of spiritual power for these four counties. Even if the people from the Kuyue Holy Mountain kill many of your Liao soldiers, you
At most, the disciples of the Kuyue Sect will be slaughtered and the holy mountain will be replaced, so how can it be destroyed together with the holy mountain?"
"The Liao Kingdom is afraid that the drunkard's intention is not in the bar!" Li Danqing said calmly.
The soldier controlled by Wan Yanmian suddenly fell into silence. After more than ten breaths, he looked at Li Danqing again, with a lot of admiration in his eyes: "The prince is indeed not an ordinary person. I am
You can't hide a little calculation from the prince."
"Then show your sincerity. What is your purpose? If you are willing to be honest with us, I will be happy to let the Wuyang court pay for the blood debt." Li Danqing suddenly burst out with a ray of blood in the slit of his squinted eyes.
