Chapter 243 The wind rises, the butterfly changes
ps: Today’s fourth update, please recommend and monthly tickets!
After the mission was completed, Liang Xiao left Meicai's deputy palace with thirteen precious swords, left Guishan City, and came to his camp. ≤≤Xiao≤Soon, Meicai sent someone to send the rewards of the King of Dayuan and the war horses that were taken from the Wusun people.
The rewards from the King of Dayuan were very generous, not only with a large amount of gold and jewelry, but also with a black war horse, tall and strong, slender limbs and well-proportioned muscles. The fur is smooth and smooth, like silk, shining with a mysterious luster.
Seeing the gold and jewelry, Guo Wenbin was so happy that he couldn't stop talking. "Sir, we don't have to worry about money in this way. Dayuan people are really rich, and they gave so much at once."
"Good horse, good horse." Old Andrew pulled the reins of the horse and couldn't let go for a moment. "This is the best war horse in Dayuan, it's the imperial horse in the palace."
"This is the princess's love horse." Manu who followed the horse bowed and said, "The horse's name is Gasatus."
Liang Xiao was stunned and suddenly remembered the expression of Mei Cai at that time. After staying with Guishan City for so many days, he certainly knew that Gasatis was in Persian, meaning pearls. This river is called the Pearl River, and Luo Xuli is called Gasatis in Dayuan. This dark horse is also called Gasatis, so it has no intention, and it was originally Luo Xuli's beloved horse.
Luo Xuli rode a white horse herself.
Mingzhu gives his confidant and BMW gives his hero. Liang Xiao felt happy, but he felt his shoulders heavy. He felt Luo Xuli's feelings and knew that she had not given up. But he also knew that there was almost no possibility between him and Luo Xuli. Even if the King of Dayuan loves his daughter, could he let her marry a Han man?
Even if he was willing, would the emperor of Han be willing to marry the daughter of the King of Dayuan as his wife? The emperor has always been very suspicious, and he doesn't doubt that he colludes with the enemy?
Just when Liang Xiao was having a headache, four blond, blue-eyed, and agile gangsters walked in. Liang Xiao was stunned. "What does this mean?"
The Dayuan official who announced the king's edict said with a smile: "This is the servants whom the king rewarded to the noble envoys. Let them serve the noble envoys' daily life in the future."
"No, no, no." Liang Xiao refused repeatedly. "I have to travel a long distance, maybe I have to fight with the enemy. I can't take them with me."
The Dayuan officials smiled even more happily. "Don't worry, they are not ordinary servant girls, they are Amazons from Temeskula."
Paris exclaimed: "Amazon female warrior?!"
The Dayuan official nodded with a smile and looked at Liang Xiao with a proud look.
Liang Xiao suddenly felt something was wrong.
The status of women in Dayuan is very high. There is a local custom. When a man proposes a marriage, he must use a gold concentric ring as a hiring, which means that the husband and wife are united as gold. In addition, the woman will also send three maids to the man's house to test the man's body. If the man's health is poor and he cannot deal with the three maids, the marriage cannot be discussed.
Now the King of Dayuan sent four at once, and they were the legendary Amazon female warriors, which was too cruel.
Luo Xuli looks weak, well-behaved and charming, but she didn't expect that she was so powerful. With these four Amazon female warriors by her side, does she have the chance to think about other thoughts? Even if she has this mind, she may not be able to escape the clutches of these four female warriors.
Liang Xiao felt a chill on his back. He squeezed out a smile and said tentatively: "Don't you do it?"
The Dayuan official smiled and said, "The noble envoy promised to protect Dayuan. The king is grateful to the noble envoy. It is also my wish to send these four Amazons with great martial arts to protect the noble envoy. It is better not to refuse the noble envoy. Otherwise, my king would be very uneasy."
Liang Xiao rolled his eyes, spread his hands helplessly, and gritted his teeth secretly. "Okay, you're cruel."
At the foot of Qilian Mountains, a battle came to an end.
Liejiaomi jumped down from a chestnut war horse covered in wounds and walked towards a flat bluestone. The guard immediately stepped forward and spread two animal skins. The weather turned cold and the stones were very cold. Liejiaomi had worked hard recently, and she was not in good health and kept coughing. Aruikan told him not to catch a cold again.
Lie Jiaomi sat down on the stone. He lowered his head weakly, covered his mouth with his blood-stained hands, and coughed twice. His throat hurts very much, and his mood is also very bad.
Because of the accidental death of King Hunxie and the tribe's internal strife, the 30,000 Xiongnu cavalry that had been expected were less than half. Liejiaomi had to accept Wu Dan's suggestion. He rushed to Nanshan to encircle and suppress the Sairen and Yuezhi people, and strengthened his strength. The Sairen and Yuezhi people fled when they heard the news and hid in the deep mountains. Hunjiaomi took a lot of effort and failed to recruit enough soldiers.
What worries him even more is that the weather is getting colder day by day. If he does not attack, once he encounters heavy storms during the battle, he does not need to be hit by the Yuezhi people, he may be seriously injured.
The unpredictable weather has always been the biggest natural enemy of nomads. Autumn to early winter is the most suitable time to go to war. If you miss this time, you will have to take exponential risks. This time, you will be delayed.
The Han envoy had already arrived in Dayuan. If he could not seize the time to defeat the main force of the Yuezhi people west of the Pamir Mountains, the Yuezhi people would probably rekindle with the help of the Han people. At that time, it would be even more difficult to completely eliminate the Yuezhi people.
How was the mission of the squad going on? Can he kill the Han envoy?
Liejiaomi dared not have too much hope. Although Tuban was one of the few wise men in Wusun and had a very careful plan, the Han envoy was not an ordinary person. He was a desperate person who ran four or five thousand miles on the grassland and dragged King Hunxie to death. Faced with such a person, Liejiaomi could not guarantee how many chances of success Tuban could have.
If the sudden shift cannot complete the task, should we attack Dayuan? Especially when it is basically unlikely to attack Yuezhi.
Hunting Jiaomi hesitates.
Attacking Dayuan and attacking Yuezhi are completely two different concepts: one is south of the Tianshan Mountains and the other is north of the Tianshan Mountains. In winter, the cold wind in the north of the mountain can freeze people to death, which is definitely not a good choice for marching and fighting.
However, attacking Dayuan also has a clear advantage: Dayuan is very weak. Not only is their limited military strength, but the Dayuan people are weak. As long as his horse hooves step into Dayuan, the Dayuan people will bow down and give them treasures and children, as well as their best war horses.
Even the Yuezhi people who were beaten to the point of falling flowers and flowing water could easily invade Bactria. How could the small Dayuan resist the blade of the Wusun people? No matter how powerful the Han envoy was, could he face tens of thousands of Wusun elite cavalry?
Lie Jiaomi thought about it repeatedly and felt that he had a chance to conquer Dayuan before the real cold winter came. If he conquers Dayuan and spends winter in Dayuan, it will be much more convenient to attack Yuezhi next year.
A rapid sound of horse hooves sounded, and Wu Dan rushed over surrounded by more than a dozen knights, raised his hand, and greeted Lie Jiaomi loudly. Lie Jiaomi stood up and greeted him with a smile on his face.
"What is the result of the battle?"
"Only more than a thousand people were caught, most of them hid in the mountains." Lie Jiaomi took Wu Dan's hand, sat down on the stone, took out another wine bag and handed it over. "Wu Dan, I have an idea. I want to discuss it with you."
"You said." Wu Dan unscrewed the wine bag plug, took a big sip of wine, and praised: "Good wine, is this Dayuan wine?"
"Yes, Dayuan wine is the best wine in the world. Do you want to drink enough?"
Wu Dan's eyes flashed. "Do you want to fight against Dayuan?"
Lie Jiaomi nodded, said his thoughts again, and finally said: "Dayuan has good horses, and they are close to the river. If we can conquer Dayuan, we can not only have a large number of war horses, but also attack Yuezhi nearby. In this way, even if the Han envoy named Liang Xiao puts wings, he will not be able to escape from our palms."
"What should I do with the Yuezhi people?"
"Where can they run?" Lie Jiaomi pointed to the snow-capped mountains in the distance. "Can you go up the snow-capped mountains?"
Wu Dan thought for a moment and laughed: "Okay. Listen to you, I'll kill that man in Dayuan, so that my sister will not be bothered by me when she sees me."
According to the information provided by Meicai, Liang Xiao brought Tu Niuer and others to the market in Guishan City and found the blacksmith who could build the sky iron.
To Liang Xiao's surprise, the blacksmith was not tall and strong, and even looked a little thin, and had a broken leg. When Liang Xiao saw him, he was leaning against the cold fireplace and dozing off. He looked listless, with a few bottles of wine scattered beside him, and the wine smelled sourdough.
However, Liang Xiao still saw some clues in his eyes for a moment. This was a proud blacksmith.
"What's the matter?" The blacksmith raised his head, yawned, his eyes covered with blood.
Liang Xiao took out the short knife and was about to hand it over. Amazon maid Sigma grabbed a step forward, reached out to grab the blacksmith's collar, and lifted him in front of Liang Xiao. The blacksmith struggled hard, but couldn't break away from Sigma's hand, but instead made himself panting.
Liang Xiao pulled out the short knife, held the handle of the knife inverted, and handed it to the blacksmith.
The blacksmith glanced at it, stopped struggling immediately, and looked at Liang Xiao curiously. "This is what I created."
Liang Xiao waved his hand and signaled that Sigma would let go. These Amazon women are beautiful, with blonde hair and blue eyes, white and delicate skin. Although they have not grown up, they are already so sexy that they make people bleeding. However, their temper is too bad and they use force at any time. He finally finds this blacksmith, but he doesn't want to be beaten by them.
"I want to customize a spear, a hundred arrows."
"Don't you have to look for me for such a job?" said the blacksmith arrogantly: "Many people can do it here."
"We need to use good iron from Hyderabad, and the arrows are special. They are real armor-breaking arrows and they also need to bring medicine troughs."
After listening to the translation, the blacksmith's eyes lit up and showed a little greed. "Yes, yes. But, iron in Hyderabad is very expensive..."
Before the blacksmith could finish his words, another Amazon maid Alpha shook his hand and threw a skin full of Greek gold coins in front of the blacksmith. The blacksmith immediately closed his mouth when he was about to reach out to get it, but Alpha choked and pulled out the battle knife and put it on the blacksmith's neck. The blacksmith's face changed and he glared at Liang Xiao.
"Don't be afraid, I just want to know if hiring you for a year is enough."
Facing the Amazon female warrior's sword and glittering gold coins, the proud blacksmith quickly made the right choice.
"Enough, for these gold coins, I can serve you for two years."
"That's great." Liang Xiao rubbed his hands happily. "How much Hyderabad iron do you have on hand? I'll buy it all at a price."
The blacksmith looked proud and was about to ask for a price everywhere. Alpha's hand tightened and drank something. The blacksmith's face twitched and nodded in frustration. Liang Xiao looked at Guo Wenbin suspiciously. Guo Wenbin held back his smile and said, "Alpha said, if you dare to talk nonsense, you will castrate him."
Liang Xiao looked at the fierce alpha holding a sword in his hand, and his neck felt a little cold—
