The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 277 260 Six Sui Army Turkic Trade Again ([-])
Seeing that Duan Wuji and Tieniu had left, the old prince quickly said to the other people in the account: "There is nothing to do now, you guys should go down and rest for a while, my king is going to write a letter to the Turkic man." , I don’t have time to chat with you now.”

Upon hearing this, several people immediately walked out of the big tent knowingly. The old prince picked up his pen and finished writing a letter in a short while.

The old prince looked it over carefully again, and found nothing wrong, so he immediately sent someone to call Duan Wuji over again.

"Wuji, the letter has already been written, do you want to read it again?"

"Thousands of the Wang family, I don't think it's useful! Besides, what can I see with just my two strokes? You can write it clearly.

Isn't it over if we tell them to send the letter back?Hey, the Wang family is a thousand years old, send someone over to ask, see if they have found the messenger?If they have discussed it, let them deliver the letter quickly. "

"Well, that's fine. I'll send someone to ask them right away, and see if these little bastards have discussed it!"

The old prince sent someone to find Qiu Tianbao.

"Tianbao, go and send someone to bring those three boys over, and ask them if they have reached a conclusion."

"Yes, I'll go and mention them myself right away."

After finishing speaking, Qiu Tianbao stepped out, and after a short while, three Turks were brought in again.

Duan Wuji looked at the three Turks and said, "How is it? Have you made an agreement with your people?"

"Sir, we told them when we went back just now, and they decided to send me back to deliver the letter, so when will you send me away?" asked the youngest Turkic man.

Duan Wuji laughed and said, "Of course, the sooner the better."

Duan Wuji took the letter from the table and handed it over, and then said to Qiu Tianbao: "Brother Qiu, send him out of the prison and give him a horse, so that it will be easier for him to deliver the letter."

"Well, I see, brother, just leave this matter alone."

Qiu Tianbao looked at the remaining two Turkic people with a smile and said: "You two go back first, your life and death are all up to your tribe's attitude now, you just go back and wait for a few days."

Qiu Tianbao waved to the outside, and immediately two soldiers came in from the outside and took them out.

Qiu Tianbao looked at the remaining young Turkic man and said, "Come on, come with me, I'll take you out of the customs."

After finishing speaking, Qiu Tianbao also led the young Jueren out.

Duan Wuji looked at King Changping and said: "The Wang family is a thousand years old, let's just wait for the good news. Let's see if there is any good news in two or three days.

Hey, the Wang family is a thousand years old, didn't you ask why this Wang imperial envoy is here? "

"Hey, I'm busy, I forgot about this, but it doesn't matter, it's not too late for me to ask tomorrow!

Wuji, there's nothing else to do now, go back and rest.If there is any news, then I will tell you. "

Duan Wuji nodded after hearing this, turned around and retreated from the big tent.

In the morning of the next day, Duan Wuji and Tieniu took the time to train the cavalry as usual. When it was almost noon, a messenger suddenly ran over.

"General Duan, the Wang family has invited you to return to the big tent."

Duan Wuji immediately followed the messenger back, went into the big tent and saw that little Turkic soldier came back again.

Duan Wuji saw it and asked: "How is it? Did your people have any thoughts after reading that letter?"

"After I went back yesterday, we held a meeting overnight to discuss, and finally we made a decision, we decided to carry out this exchange, and the exchange can start in the afternoon.

Let's exchange the dead bodies with horses first. It's a hot day, and these dead bodies can't be kept. We get them back and bury them quickly, so that they can be buried as soon as possible.

As for the matter of exchanging living people for horses, we can do it tomorrow, what do you think? "

"Okay, the sooner it goes, the better, so that both of us can save worry. Wang Jiaqian, you can make arrangements.

Hey, when will your horses hit?Hey, let me tell you, our transaction is a transaction. If anyone makes any small moves during this transaction, and if there is any unpleasantness at that time, whoever makes the small moves will be fully responsible for it! "

"Well, our horses will be here soon.

Don't worry, we Turkic people are the most honest, and we won't engage in those small tricks.

Shameless villains who engage in petty tricks will not end well.How can a person stand between heaven and earth without integrity? "

"Well, that's good, hey, let's have dinner here later, let's trade after dinner."

"There's no need to eat. I've delivered the letter. You should prepare it too."

"Okay, okay, then we won't keep you anymore, come and send him back safely."

Immediately two soldiers came in and led the little Turkic man down.

Duan Wuji looked at King Changping and said: "The Wang family is a thousand years old, let's prepare for dinner. How can the words of this Turkic man be trusted? If we don't make sufficient preparations, aren't we waiting to suffer and be fooled?"

"How do you prepare? Tell me.

Get our cavalry ready, and we'll trade with them.

Let's be prepared for conflicts when trading with them, so that we will be invincible! "

"Well, it's exactly what I want, and I think so too. How can we not be prepared for a surprise attack from them? Wouldn't that be the end of it?

OK, I'll make arrangements right away.You don't have to worry about this. "

Duan Wuji walked out of the big tent with a heavy heart, and went back to his own big tent to have lunch, after a while, Qiu Tianbao came in.

"Brother Wuji, let's go, the team has assembled, let's act now."

Duan Wuji stepped out of the big tent and got on his own horse, only to see that dozens of carts of dead people had already been loaded into the carts.

The soldiers and generals in the battalion had already put on their uniforms neatly. When the old prince saw Duan Wuji come out, Lixin said loudly: "Wuji, you lead a thousand elite soldiers to trade, and this king personally supervises the troops to guard against you." , Hey, Tianbao, you can be Wuji's deputy, let's complete today's deal."

Duan Wuji smiled and waved at Qiu Tianbao.

"Brother Qiu, let's go, what are you waiting for?"

When he came to the gate, the old prince said loudly: "Open and close the gate, let them go out."

The guard guarding the closed gate heard the order and immediately opened the closed gate. Duan Wuji led the team to rush out of the gate, and the other teams also rushed out. The team walked forward for less than half a mile. Just met the Turkic team that came to trade.

Duan Wuji reined in his horse and said loudly: "On the other side, where is the master's business? Please go to the horse and answer."

Not long after, a big black horse galloped out from the opposite team, and immediately sat an old man in his fifties, who clasped his fist at Duan Wuji.

"This general, this old man is in charge of today's transaction, just say what you have to say."

Duan Wuji said with a smile after hearing this: "Old man, you are in good spirits, how old is this year?"

"Well, I am sixty-two today. Hey, I am a general. Why do you ask this when we meet? Does this have anything to do with the transaction?"

"It's okay, as soon as we met, I felt that we were destined, and I would like to chat with you old man by the way.

How are you, old man? "

"Okay? Is this okay? You have killed so many of our people, and no one will be in a better mood."

"Hey, old man, are there any relatives of yours among the dead?"

"Well, that's it."

"It's fine if you don't have one, old man, do you think people won't die in this war? How could it be better than the people of our two countries to secure the borders?

What do you think, old man? "

"This? Well, what you said is not unreasonable, hey, let's not talk about this, let's hurry up and make a deal."

After hearing this, Duan Wuji waved his hand behind him. "Transport those dead bodies to them and let them count them. There are a total of [-] dead bodies. You can count them."

These dead bodies are all lined up on the car, isn't that hard to count?After a while, the dead bodies were counted, and the Turkic people put them on their carts and took them away.

Then, the Turks rushed over with the same number of horses, and Duan Wuji also ordered them to be counted, just right, not too many horses, not too many horses.

The Turkic old man looked at Duan Wuji and said, "I'll send someone to kill them and you can take them back. This transaction will be considered complete."

After hearing this, Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Old man, I don't need to bother you, you say these lively horses, why do you say you kill them? Besides, if we want to kill them, we will kill them!"

Don't worry, these horse craftsmen will also eat horse meat when we get them back. They can't eat so much at once. You said that in this hot day, with so many horses, the meat must be spoiled?

Old man, forget it, you don’t need to worry about that anymore, what do you say, old man? "

"This? Well, this is up to you. You can blast them back.

Hey, I said this general, when will our living people trade? "

"Old man, tell me, I'll listen to you."

"Can we trade now?"

"What's wrong with this? Hey, I said, old man, have you prepared all the horses?"

"Don't worry, you are indispensable for this. We will do whatever we say."

"Well, well, let me order the horses to get back first, and then bring them over."

"Well, that's fine. You guys have to be in a hurry!"

"That is, that is. Still, old man, I have to tell you in advance that we will trade once for every 100 people. You first prepare 100 horses. I will release [-] people in a while, and I will let them go immediately." Easy and fast.

After the transaction is completed, the first call is made, and the second call is made according to our transaction, until the transaction is completed. "

"Well, let's do as you say, anyway, the initiative is in your hands now, and you have the final say."

Duan Wuji smiled.

"Old man, what do you mean we have the final say? Let's discuss something, what do you think?"

Duan Wujiniu turned his head and said in a low voice: "You get the horses back first, and after the horses are settled, bring a hundred prisoners of war."

Qiu Tianbao promised with a wave of his hand, and the soldiers rushed the horses into the pass immediately.
