Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 404

The Khitan people were shocked by this blood-sweat horse. Even Yelu Deguang didn't let anyone take it out of the imperial tent, but kept it in the tent.

The horse is also very humane and half-recumbent, unexpectedly has a kind of contented demeanor of a king.

Seeing Yelude, he felt more and more that this horse was very suitable for him. The only pity was that he was castrated.

Of course they will be castrated, because all war horses will be castrated, and it is even more because Zhang Zhao can't let the genes of sweaty horses flow out of Hexi.

This blood-sweat horse given to Yelu Deguang is a first-class war horse bred from the Pegasus horse he captured under Shule City and a beautiful fold-eared mare, with excellent genes.

In this era, a stallion of this grade is a proper strategic weapon.

After seeing this sweaty horse, the two beauties from Persia and Tianzhu didn't seem so exciting.

Although the two beauties are very exotic and their looks are considered first-class, they are not so rare in Yelu Deguang's place.

Anyway, he is also the lord of a great country with 6 million people, and the beauties around Yelu Deguang surpass these two in many beauty.

As for the exotic customs, that's it, because there are still a small number of descendants of Scythian or White Hun blood in the Northeast and Mobei at this time.

Hundreds of years later, in the Jurchen Kingdom of Jin, there were still yellow-headed Jurchens. Most of them were descendants of slaves from the west who were captured by various ethnic groups in the grassland.

For Yelu Deguang, the only thing that interests him is the name Persia.

"I heard that there was a Persian king who lived in Chang'an during the great dynasty in the past. I don't know where Persia is? How many thousands of miles away?"

Yelu Deguang was not asking about Wu Daer, but about the beauty of the Saman Persian royal family who was kneeling on the ground.

The beauty lightly raised her head and replied softly: "Saman Persia is located in the southwest of Shang Kingdom, about eight thousand miles away. The Persian king who stayed in the Great Dynasty in the past should be a distant relative of my family."

That's okay, the ancestor of Saman Persia was a descendant of Bahram VI, the Sassanid Persian monarch, so it's not wrong to be considered a distant relative.

Yelu Deguang nodded in satisfaction. This Persian beauty spoke elegantly with a Luoyang accent.

Although the pronunciation is a bit weird, communication is no problem, at least it can be put in the harem to relieve boredom, if you can't even speak, it doesn't make much sense.

"Who is the current king of Saman Persia? How big is his country? How many people are there under his rule?"

It may be that he feels better after getting good things, or it may be that the traffic is limited. People in this era are particularly interested in news from afar, and Yelu Deguang unexpectedly made an exception and asked a few more questions.

"My country of Persia calls the ruler Emir, and His Royal Highness Emir Hamid at this time is the uncle of Nai Nu.

Under the rule of Uncle Emir, the Persian kingdom covered thousands of miles, and the people under his rule were about 5 million. "

Yelu Deguang looked at Wu Da'er in shock. A country with a vast territory and 5 million people governed is almost the same as his Great Khitan
How could such a big princess be given away by Zhang Zhao like a slave?
Wu Da'er had a smile on his face, showing complacency and pride in his indifferent expression.

"Reporting to the emperor of Shangguo, the farther we go to the west, although the country is big, there is still a lack of brave men. If the journey is not too far, when will we get them to be king?

Great Khitan Tianxian 11 years (934), Emir Nasr of Saman Persia, persecuted Buddhist believers in Bukhara, and clamored to make Buddha believers pay poll tax like Zoroastrians.

So my lord, His Royal Highness King Han, with the support of his uncle Khotan, the emperor of Dajin Kingdom, conscripted [-] troops from the three towns of Khotan, Shule, and Suiye for a little punishment.

In the first battle, Kara Khan and the [-] Persian coalition forces were defeated by the waterside. In the second battle, they all fought, and then went to Xiongcheng. Finally, outside the city of Bukhara, they defeated the Persian Forbidden Army and killed more than [-] troops.

The Emir Hamid of Persia came out with the sheep naked, and my lord got countless treasures, gold and silver, and kidnapped dozens of princes and princesses and returned them.

This woman is the one with the best appearance among the Persian princesses, and she is dedicated to the emperor of Shang Kingdom. "

Bragging, half-truth, half-false, artistic processing is inevitable.

Wu Da'er was very eloquent, he only made Yelude's eyes shine, and after a long while, he took a deep breath like a whale sucking water, and then sighed.

"A man should be like this! I, the emperor of Shang Kingdom, am a little envious!"

"Then this Tianzhu woman is also the result of King Han's destruction of the country?" Just as Yelu Deguang finished speaking, a strong and fierce Khitan man next to him asked loudly.

"Of course, this woman is the sister of the ruler of Tianzhu Xiaxi Kingdom, which is also a big country with millions of people." Wu Da'er replied loudly.

"Good! Good!" Yelu Deguang laughed happily, the red flowers need green leaves to match, and the beauty also needs other things to set off.

A princess with a vast territory and 5 million people governing a big country, even if she is average-looking, with these blessings, she will look glamorous and unbelievable.

What's more, Huansheng's appearance is very beautiful, and he can speak Chinese. Although there is no concubine system in Khitan at this time, Yelu Deguang is ready to pamper and pamper him.

"Envoy Wuna, go back and tell the King of Han that I am the younger brother of the Son of Heaven, the son of the Ascension Emperor, the Emperor's Taidi Yelu Lihu.

Let him also send a Persian princess, and if he doesn't take it for nothing, he is willing to exchange a hundred good horses and five pairs of Haidongqing. "

As he said that, Yelu Lihu, who seemed to be a villain at first glance, might feel that these were not enough, so he shook his head and increased the size.

"There is a beautiful woman who was taken captive from Goryeo here, she is the daughter of Huangzhou Huangfu, a noble family in Goryeo, and I gave it to my lord in exchange for power!"

It has to be said that Wu Da'er is a suitable emissary, and this half-flattery and half-show off not only established Zhang Zhao's identity.

Even people like Yelu Lihu felt that Zhang Zhao was a talent, and they were willing to use a more equal exchange instead of blackmailing him directly.

At the same time, he envied all the Khitan people, from Yelu Deguang to the men from Yelu's family below.

Men, this primitive desire to compete and a sense of conquest are engraved in the genes, as evidenced by the popularity of map-opening games in later generations.

"Report to the king, the Persian princess has a noble status, so she must report to my lord."

Of course Wu Da'er would not agree immediately, one is that he is not qualified, and the other is that this thing is worthless if there are too many.

The Persian princesses in Zhang Zhao's hands are actually quite small, there are more than a dozen of them, but except for a few real ones, the rest of them are a bit dubious.

For example, the one given to Yelu Deguang is indeed the Saman Persian royal family, Hamid's niece.

But in fact, she was already very far away. Before being taken captive, she was just Aunt Hamid's maid.

What a joke, Zhang Zhao has kidnapped people so far, if the princess is real, she will not send it outside at all, except for Sister Sefiye beside him and the one given to Li Shengtian.

Because you let people break up their house, from a princess to a slave, and even send it outside, can you not hate you?

Especially for Yelu Deguang, you must guard against the pillow wind. This is Zhang Zhao, who was taught by her concubine Cao Yuanxin.

So only those whose identities are true or false will obey Zhang Zhao's arrangements, at least nothing bad will happen.

The reason why they were favored by a great monarch like Yelu Deguang, who has no shortage of beauties, was that status was actually the most dazzling aura, which was much more of a bonus than appearance.

If such a person is sent out, if Zhang Zhao dares to blow the pillow, Zhang Zhao will expose her identity.

Once the halo is gone, it is basically delusional to want to maintain a position in a highly competitive harem like Khitan.

But in the harem, without favor and status, the end will be as miserable as it is.

"Disrespectful! Don't back down!" Yelu Deguang reprimanded Yelu Lihu in a fake manner.

But he knew that the Hexi envoy would definitely go back and tell Zhang Zhao that if Zhang Zhao was not stupid, as long as Yelu Deguang did not object, he would still send someone with a lower status over.

It's just that Yelu Deguang won't ask for it anymore, because from now on, Zhang Zhao of Hexi gave him the three unparalleled treasures of Buddha, Tianma, and Princess of the Great Country. .

Moreover, between the two parties, the matter of Zhang Zhao attacking and killing his Zuopishi Fengsheng army by the Hun River has not yet been resolved.

But this kind of atmosphere is not suitable for talking about this kind of thing, and Yelude has nothing to do with it.

The main reason was that he didn't know what Zhang Zhao wanted from him.
Taking a ten thousand step back, even if a condition is proposed, it is not an envoy who can talk to him.

The purpose of the Hexi envoy's coming here should be to avoid further complicating the situation.

So Yelu Deguang hosted a banquet in honor of Wu Da'er and his party. At the same time, the secret line began to work. Han Kuangye began to ask Cao Yanjing to provide more detailed information about the Guiyi Army.

. . . . .

In the evening, the dinner was finally over, and Yelu Deguang quickly summoned Han Kuangye. Han Kuangye found Cao Yanjing to find out about Wu Da'er.

"So, Zhang Zhao from Hexi wants to pick up people from Yunzhou City?"

When Yelu De just heard Zhang Zhao's request, the good mood he had just received from the treasure gift was ruined in an instant.

He didn't expect that Zhang Zhao's real request was to take food from his mouth.

Yelv Pode, Zuo Pishi, of course didn't want Yelu Deguang to let Zhang Zhao go lightly, so he pretended to be filled with righteous indignation.

"Your Majesty personally led the army to besiege for seven months, how can there be only an empty city?
Even if the Hexi people just want to take the Datong army away, they resist the Great Khitan Heavenly Soldiers, and they must not let them go! "

Yelu Pode frowned, not because of Zhang Zhao, but because of Yelu Pode's words of seven months of siege.

Before encircling Yunzhou, Yelu Deguang had never seriously attacked the fortified cities in the Central Plains. The previous attacks were small towns or beacon castles in the wilderness. This was his first attempt at a fortified city like Yunzhou.

Um!After this attempt, Yelu Deguang was almost depressed. Now he heard someone say that he besieged the city for seven months, and he felt uncomfortable first.

But Yelupod didn't understand this point, and he was still talking about Yunzhou, so Yelupod's light was a little bit overwhelmed.

Zuo Pishi, Xiangwen, and Yelv Wuzhi are old foxes among the Khitan people, and he has already seen it.

But he didn't remind him, and he simply asked Yelu Pode to say a few more words, so that Yelu Pode would only speak when he was about to explode.

"Your Majesty, according to what I have seen, although we have figured out who the King of Han is, we can't make an accurate judgment without seeing him.

Why don't we send envoys to the west and let the King of Han come to the Hun River to meet with His Majesty. "

Wu Da'er sent a high-quality folding-eared horse and the commodity supply rights of [-] catties of sugar and [-] catties of tea bricks a year, just to buy Yelu's house quality.

"What if King Zhang Han of Hexi refuses to come?" Han Kuangye asked in a low voice, asking for Yelu Deguang.

"If he is afraid and refuses to come, there is no way to mention why he picked up the members of the Datong Army.

If he came, but Hexi soldiers and horses were not that strong, then kill him on the spot.

If the soldiers and horses in Hexi are really strong, I also ask Your Majesty to put our Great Khitan Kingdom first and be patient for now.

In the future, we will control the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun and even the rich land of Hebei in the state of Jin, and we will have plenty of time to deal with these Hexi people. "
