Chapter 228
Regarding Wanyan Wu's begging request, although Li Xiang had already made up his mind, he did not answer immediately, but pretended to think about it first.

"Forgive me, but without an order from the imperial court, how dare we send troops in Bingzhou without permission.

What's more, the battle of the army is not just as simple as talking about it. The cost of food and grass, the compensation money for the casualties, and the preparation of weapons and materials need time and more money. It is difficult to dispatch troops. " Li Xiang replied to Wanyan Wu Qimai with a face of embarrassment.

"Don't worry, general, our Southern Huns have also sent envoys to the imperial court, and they will definitely be able to persuade the imperial court to allow your Excellency to send troops." Wanyan Wu Qimai said.

"As for sending troops, I, the Southern Huns, are willing to donate [-] horses and [-] cattle and sheep to thank the general for his help."

Wanyan Wu Qimai understands that what Li Xiang said before does not mean that he is definitely not willing to send troops to help the Southern Huns, it's just that the benefits are not in place yet.

What's more, Wanyan Wu begged to buy self-confidence. For people like himself and Li Xiang, even if he really didn't want to do it, as long as there were enough benefits, he might not change his mind.In the eyes of people like them, after all, interests are the key.

"It's better for your envoy to think about it again." Li Xiang looked at Wanyan Wu begging to buy, and said with an inexplicable expression, "Come here, see off the guests."

Li Xiang is not interested in being here to accompany this Wanyan Wu begging here to talk about it, this Wanyan Wu begging is really good enough, the Southern Huns are at the time of life and death, this Wanyan Wu begging dare to come here set.

[-] war horses, [-] cattle and sheep are indeed a lot, but for the current situation of the Southern Huns, the price will always change according to market conditions.

In the situation of the Southern Huns, Wanyan Wu begged for such a low price and dared to lower the price, which is a bit ignorant.Anyway, it will be the Southern Huns who will be wiped out at that time, but Li Xiang is not in a hurry.

"Slow, slow!" Wanyan Wu Qimai asked helplessly, "I don't know how many horses or cattle and sheep the general thinks is suitable?"

"One hundred thousand war horses, 50 cattle and sheep." Li Xiang was not polite, and directly bought a lion with a big mouth for Wanyan Wuqi, and the price quoted by Wanyan Wuqi was five times higher.

Only the harder Li Xiang slaughters the Southern Huns, the more the Southern Huns will feel that the Bingzhou Army has no other intentions, and the more they will relax their vigilance against Li Xiang's Bingzhou Army. will go well.

When Li Xiang reported his asking price, Wanyan Wu begged for money and almost didn't directly complain about it.However, in the end, Wanyan Wu begged and forcibly endured it.

Now it's man for the knife and I for the fish, and the Southern Huns can only endure it forcibly.

If the Southern Huns really hated the Bingzhou Army, then even if another mission persuaded the Han court to send troops, and the Bingzhou Army bought a wave of Huns during the war, then the Southern Huns would be really cold.Therefore, even if Wanyan Wu felt aggrieved by begging for money, he could only choose to bear it.

What's more, asking for a lot of money and paying back the money on the spot, Wanyan Wu begged to buy and understood that even if Li Xiang wanted to pay such a high price, Li Xiang himself would never really think that he could slaughter the Southern Huns so ruthlessly.The Southern Huns still have the opportunity to lower the price, but the final transaction price depends on the abilities of both parties.

"Master General, your asking price is too harsh. Now that we Southern Huns have to resist the Mongolian invasion, we simply can't afford so many horses, cattle and sheep. I don't know what the general thinks 20 horses and [-] cattle and sheep are good enough." I thought. After some understanding, Wanyan Wu begged to buy, and said with a wry smile.

"40 war horses, [-] cattle and sheep." Finally, there was an opportunity to slaughter the Southern Huns, and Li Xiang naturally would not let it go easily.

"I hope the general can understand the difficulties of our southern Xiongnu. How about 25 war horses and [-] cattle and sheep." Wanyan Wu Qimai saw Li Xiang took a step back, and immediately knew that there was a door, and lowered the price again.

"Less!" For Wanyan Wu's behavior of begging to lower the price again, Li Xiang did not continue to quote, but said so in a flattering way.

"General, how about 30 war horses and [-] cattle and sheep?" Wanyan Wu Qimai asked tentatively again.

Wanyan Wu Qimai knew that this time the Southern Huns must have suffered a hemorrhage last time, but it would be good if they could bleed a little less.Therefore, Wanyan Wu Qimai tested Li Xiang's bottom line little by little.

"Come here, see off." Li Xiang was also not used to Wanyan Wu Qimai and the Southern Huns.If you don't force it, he will never know who is asking for help.

"General, how about 35 war horses and [-] cattle and sheep. If there are more, the Southern Huns really can't get them out."

Seeing that Li Xiang was going to lift the table, although he didn't know if it was true or not, Wanyan Wu was really in a hurry to beg for money.

Li Xiang knew that he couldn't force the Southern Huns too hard.What's more, for Li Xiang, the key is to seize the Hetao land in the future.

"Okay, it's not hard for me to be an envoy. That's 35 war horses, [-] cattle and sheep. However, the number of cattle must not be less than [-], and there must be a thousand stallions and high-quality mares. .” Li Xiang said in a deep voice.

"Okay, after that, General Lao will send troops." Wanyan Wu Qimai said with a feigned expression of gratitude.

At this time, Wanyan Wu Qimai looked at Li Xiang and had the urge to draw his sword to kill someone, but Wanyan Wu Qimai didn't dare, otherwise, the Southern Huns would really be finished.

Moreover, at this time, Wanyan Wu begged not only did not dare to draw his sword to kill people, but he also had to thank Li Xiang a thousand times, and to the person who just mercilessly slaughtered their Southern Huns.

Wanyan Wu begs to buy and knows that although Li Xiang's asking price this time is like cutting flesh from their Southern Huns, and he has cut off a large piece of flesh, he can only accept it. Moreover, his brother Wanyan Aguda I will definitely accept it.

In fact, at this moment of crisis, it is not that no one in the Southern Huns thought of surrendering. After all, although Mongolia is called the Mongols, it is still essentially the Northern Huns.The Huns surrendered to the Huns, and these people could accept it. Anyway, the strong prey on the weak is a common thing in the grasslands.

But Wanyan Aguda didn't want to, or it wasn't just Wanyan Aguda, the entire Wanyan family didn't think about surrendering.

I don't know if it was because the Kingdom of Jin was destroyed by Yuanmeng in the previous life, anyway, after seeing Temujin, everyone in the Wanyan family was full of hostility and killing intent.

It is not that the Wanyan family cannot surrender, but as long as they think that they will surrender to Temujin, they would rather fight to the last moment.

Therefore, this is also the reason why Wanyan Wu Qimai would rather be brutally slaughtered by Li Xiang than insist on fighting this battle.
