Chapter 35: Western Liao's annexation
The tent of the King of Western Liao, "This brat bullies people too much, too much." Tuoba Hongyu scolded angrily
"What should we do now? We don't have enough strength to fight him." Murong Wudi asked softly.
"Is there anything wrong with Donghu?" Tuoba Hongyu asked
"I guess I must fight, I'm afraid..."
"What are you afraid of? Tell me?"
"I'm afraid that our problems will be solved in advance before the war between Donghu and Dawei or Dongxia."
"Oh? You mean that Donghu will destroy us before the war begins?"
"Yes, Donghu cannot keep us for trouble for them. If we surrender to the boy in Yuzhou, we should be able to resist Donghu with his help. If we don't have his help... we are afraid we can't hold on for a day."
"You mean surrender? My Tu tribe has never surrendered to anyone in hundreds of years. Are you asking me to break the precedents of the Tu tribe's history? Are you not afraid that I will cut off your head?" Tuoba Hongyu angrily scolded Murong Wudi.
"Master, please listen to me first."
"speak"
"The boy named Liu is different from Donghu. Even if we surrender to him, will he come to occupy our territory? Donghu is different. They cannot let another force exist on the grassland, and it will never be possible. Submission to Yuzhou will not destroy the clan. The clan members should live or live. But if they are swallowed by Donghu, the king must understand what the result will be in the future." After Murong Wudi said that, he stepped aside and knelt down. As for whether the king would chop his head, he could not care so much. Everything was put as the whole clan first, and he had completely let go.
Murong Wudi also knelt for a long time. Murong Wudi didn't know how long it took. He only knew that his legs had been numb. Waiting for the final consideration of the above, he hoped that the king could figure out or truly figure out which is more important, the clan rule or the extermination, and there was no provision for the clan rule that could not be surrendered to others.
Just when Murong Wudi was about to faint
"Murong Wudi, you... get up!" Tuoba Hongyu said weakly.
Hearing this sentence, Murong Wudi finally had a smile on his mouth. The king finally figured out that the Tu tribe would not perish.
"Thank you, King."
"Well! You can also go to Yuzhou tomorrow! Bring me a word to that brat."
"Master, I don't know what to say?"
Tuoba Hongyu hesitated and said slowly: "Those who betray all their clan will be destroyed by the opposite."
Murong Wudi knew what this meant, so he didn't ask too much. The guards came in and helped him out of the tent.

What was Liu Yi doing at this time? It turned out that today was the open day at Shacheng Pass, which means that he officially opened today. In order to attract all caravans of the Wei Dynasty to step into the desert, he specially approved a one-year duty-free period. Moreover, the two inns he asked to build from Yuzhou to the Kingdom of Yushen have also been completed. Wang Si, the pioneer officer, is still very reliable, and prepared all the Danshui, grain, bedding, and Chaihe early. Because there are no sand bandit activities on this road, he did not garrison at these two inns. Anyway, there were not many sand bandits along the road just before the business road was opened. Later, there were more or less black cavalry stations along the road. He stood at Shacheng Pass and watched these first batch of business travelers exit from Shacheng Pass, and he was very happy and greeted them one by one.
Just as he greeted various business trips, he looked up and saw an acquaintance and hurried over.
"Oh! Huo Dangjia is good?"
"Hello, Lord Liu. I haven't seen each other for more than ten days since I left for the last time. I miss you very much!"
"Haha! Huo Dang's family can transport goods from my new Yuzhou cargo road, but I should thank Huo Dang's family for their trust and help!" He said that, and bowed to Huo Quan.
"Where, where, Lord Liu opened up a new cargo channel for me, Great Wei, so that we business travelers do not have to suffer from the cowardice of the Simon people. We should be grateful to Lord Liu."
"Okay, okay, so I wish Huo's journey will be smooth and rich. He will have my Yuzhou cavalry station along the way. If you have any difficulties, you can go to my Black Cavalry station for help at any time."
"Then I will thank Lord Liu, let me go." After Huo Quan said that, he led the team out of Shacheng Pass.
When he was about to return to Shacheng, he saw another acquaintance, glad that Yang Chengyu's idiot was not there, otherwise he would have to be embarrassed again.
"Hello, Master Qin! I miss you so much after leaving for more than ten days." He greeted him
It turned out that this acquaintance was Qin Yuming, the wife Yang Chengyu talked about all day long.
"Gangmaster Liu, I miss you so much after leaving the dozens of Japanese girls." After Qin Yuming said that, he glanced behind him a few times, and then asked again: "I wonder why Mr. Yang was not here last time today?"
"Oh! Chengyu has been training troops in the military camp recently. He has not had time to go there today so he didn't come. I wonder if Master Qin has something to ask him for?" he asked back.
"There's nothing, I just ask casually, haha! Look, Lord Liu is not too late at this time, so I will lead the team out of seclusion first?" Qin Yuming said and was about to leave.
"Wait, Master Qin, please stay."
"Stunning? I wonder if there is anything else to do with Gang Liu?"
"I wonder where Master Qin is going to send the goods?"
Qin Yuming bit his finger and thought, "It's not certain yet. I'm going to go to the small countries in Modong first, or if there are buyers from the Kingdom of God and Chechi, you can ship the goods directly."
He nodded and said, "That's it! That, Master Qin, can I recommend a buyer for you? Although it's a bit far away, I can send someone to escort the leader to Station No. 14 in the early stage. There will be a black cavalry escort on the road to Ukraine. I will send someone to notify the commander of the Black Cavalry to take you to Ukraine to hand over the security line. Our Black Cavalry fought with the Carter Empire last time, and we can't get into Ukraine yet. But Master, please rest assured. If the Wu Kingdom is not open and detaining your goods, then I don't mind another battle with the Carter Empire. Master, what do you think?"
Qin Yuming's eyes turned and smiled slightly, "This is OK, but I have never been to such a far place. I wonder if Lord Liu can send someone to escort me?"
"So I wonder who the leader wants me to send to escort?"
"Well! Or maybe that Young Master Yang, Lord Liu can see?"
Okay, he was completely speechless when he heard this sentence. He thought to himself that this girl is too smart, right? I know that I begged her for something, which is considered a threat to me? Okay, Chengyu! You can't blame me for selling you. Brother is also considering your lifelong happiness. You should leave it to this girl as a bodyguard! Well, when I come back, I am giving you some bonuses.
"Okay, then follow the leader. Please go out of seclusion first. Then I send someone to call Chengyu. What should I do? Master Don't worry, Chengyu can catch up with the caravan within two days of riding a horse."
"Okay! That girl will leave now, Lord Liu said goodbye." Qin Yuming also left the prison after saying that.
...

When he sent someone to notify Yang Chengyu, he heard that Qin Yuming was jumping three feet high and was about to leave in a hurry. As soon as he left the barracks, he sent someone to call him back and asked him to take 100,000 new recruits with him when he left. Yang Chengyu did not ask about his intentions. If the new recruits, especially the cavalry, were expected to be able to develop combat power by simply training in the barracks, it would be impossible. Even if there were three years of training, there would be no big changes in the new recruits or new recruits. It would be better to bring them directly into the desert to practice. There would be no big battle, but small battles would not be broken. Of course, there was another reason.
The Three Kingdoms martial arts masters who appeared at the martial arts conference last month came to smash the scene. He was afraid that the Kyoto Intelligence Department would target Yuzhou, nor was he afraid that Tian Ruoju (Prime Minister of the Secretariat). What he was afraid that if Tian Ruoju leaked the news to Taishi Chen and his uncle, it might cause some trouble for Yuzhou. According to the news obtained by the Beggars' Sect from the Central Plains, Wei Yan fell ill again. Wei Yan is over 60 years old and has been counting on medicine jars to kill his life in recent years. It is probably not far from his death. Thinking that if Tian Ruoju can be brought to his camp... it is very difficult. It is an old antique, and he can only think about it.
When he was so confused that the guards outside the door came to report that it was the leader of the Salt Gang Hong who asked for a visit. He was a little surprised. Hasn't the Salt Gang been out of seclusion for a few days? Why did the leader of the team run back? He could only go out and see what Hong Tao was doing to find him.
As soon as I went out, I saw the fat man Hong walking around the Shacheng Command Center, looking very anxious, and asked quickly, "Oh! Gangmaster Hong has been out of seclusion for more than three days, why are he back again? Did he encounter something on the road and come back for help?"
When Hong Tao saw him coming out, he knelt down directly, "Mr. Liu, help me!"
Oh! Strangely, from the Sand City to the Kingdom of Yushen, how could anyone ask him for Hong Tao's life? "Gangmaster Hong, please come up quickly, what's wrong with you? Who wants your life? Is there anyone in my Town West Army restless? Tell me who it is, I will definitely make the decision for you."
Hong Tao said with a frown, "No, it's my brother-in-law missing. I always thought he was following behind, but it was two days since I found out that he was missing. Later, I asked my brother and found out that the boy ran away secretly when he left Shacheng Pass. After I asked, I told the truth. My brother said that my brother left alone and went to the recruitment office of the Western Army in the Town. Lord Liu will help! My uncle is young and ignorant, please help him come back!"
He: "⊙?⊙? Gangmaster Hong, please get up and talk, slowly tell me what's going on? If you really join the Western Army in my town, I will send someone to check it."
Hong Tao sighed, "Oh! I asked him to go to the desert with Uncle Fu to run, but he saw Lord Liu bringing an army of 200,000 to fight against the 300,000 cavalry of the Carter Empire. After returning, the boy became restless and wanted to join the Zhenxi Army, but I was so naughty... Oh! I kept stopping him and didn't let him run away, but when I left the customs, he still asked him to find an opportunity to escape. What should I do if I lost the boy and went back this time?"
Only then did he know what was going on. I became an idol in the town of the Western Army. He would definitely welcome young people to join the army. But it was really not easy for Hong Tao’s brother-in-law to join the army! I thought about it and then looked at Hong Tao, "Gangmaster Hong, when the child is old, he will also have his own pursuits. If you blindly let him do things that he doesn’t like to do, I think he will eventually do it. It would be better to let him train in this military camp. But please rest assured, I won’t let him do anything. I will send someone to check his resume and see where the kid is. I will send someone to keep an eye on it. It’s okay, what’s your uncle’s name?"
Hong Tao could only agree with a sigh. Even if he caught him this time, he might run away next time, forget it! It would be nice to let him train in the army.
"My uncle is Lin Qiang, and his nickname is Lin Xiaoqiang. I hope he can take care of him." Hong Tao bowed and thanked him again, and then left in a daze.
Of course, he did not delay. As soon as Hong Tao left, he immediately sent someone to the recruitment office of the Shacheng Neika to check the resumes of the recruits in the past few days. Not to mention that boy Lin Qiang was really in the Western Army and was assigned to the training ground for the infantry to station the new army. He ordered the boy to be transferred to the training ground for Shacheng. He also considered Hong Tao, at least to let Hong Tao see people before leaving the customs, so he would feel more at ease.
But what he didn't know was that his retention this time left a future infantry general for the Zhenxi Army.
Chapter completed!
