Chapter 484 0481 [Going to the meeting alone]

Yelu Dashi shook his head, picked up a handful of river water and poured it on his bronze shoulders, and said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid it's difficult. The leader of Moge's Lost Tribe, Jing Nige, is not a mediocre person. He is good at playing both sides, and now he is relying on the Kingdom of Jin to quickly If they become big, they will naturally refuse to submit to me.”

To put it bluntly, it is still due to interests.

Although life was good under the rule of the Liao Kingdom, how could it be as comfortable as it is now?
Now all the tribes on the grassland have been dealt with by the Jurchens. Only Moge took advantage of the situation and became the little overlord on this grassland.

The key Jin people will not be afraid of them, but will only use them more. After all, Wanyan Wu Qimai still needs Jiannige to control the grassland.

There is no way, the Shangjing Road (Inner Mongolia + Outer Mongolia) is so big that it would take a month or two to run from east to west without eating or drinking.

Only if Jianni Ge had lost his mind would he follow Yelu Dashi to collect gold.

Ma Kuo sighed: "It seems that a battle is inevitable."

"Not really."

Yelu Dashi chuckled and said: "Although Jiannige will not join me, if it is just a borrowing, there is still a certain degree of certainty. I have said that Jiannige is good at playing both sides and will not put his treasure on one end. If The Jin people are powerful, so that's another matter, but if, as Ma Shangshu said, Qi's offensive is swift and violent and has captured the territory of three states, then Jian Nige will definitely consider it carefully."

The Mo Ge lost tribe is located at the junction of Xijing Road and Shangjing Road. You can also take a detour, or you can cross Yinshan from Heishui and take a detour to Fengzhou.

Or we have to go from the east, through the vast Gobi and desert.

No matter which choice you choose, it's not as cost-effective as coming from Mog's Lost Department.

"Don't worry, King Liao, everything I said is true."

Ma Kuo patted his chest and assured, obviously having great confidence in Han Zhen and the Qingzhou Army.

Yelu Dashi nodded and said, "In that case, I can give it a try tomorrow."

"inappropriate."

Ma Kuo stopped him and said, "The King of Liao has a special status and cannot make any mistakes. I'd better go as an official."

At this juncture, once Yelu Dashi is taken away by Jiannige and handed over to the Kingdom of Jin, all his efforts on this trip will be in vain.

Although the probability is very small, it must be guarded against.

A hint of admiration flashed in Yelu Dashi's eyes, and he said boldly: "Okay, then I will prepare the wine and wait for the good news from Ma Shangshu!"

In mid-March in Mobei, the river water is still very cold. If you soak in it for a long time, you will feel a biting chill, which will continue to penetrate your body along the pores.

The two of them washed for a while and then got up from the river.

The next day.

Early in the morning, Ma Kuo brought some gifts and, escorted by the Xuanjia Army, went straight to Moge's lost troops.

After running for more than a hundred miles on the grassland, they encountered a small tribe.

After revealing their identity, the leader of this small tribe was frightened and quickly sent someone to take them to the gathering place of Mog lost tribe.

The herdsmen on the grasslands have always lived in pursuit of water and grass and have never had any settlements.

If there is no one to lead the way, we still don’t know when we will find him in the vast grassland.

You know, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty conquered the Xiongnu several times, some generals got lost in the grasslands each time.

Gongsun Ao, Zhang Qian, Li Guang... who has never lost his way in the desert?
The reason why Huo Qubing's deeds are so legendary is because he can accurately find the Huns' royal court every time.

That night, Ma Kuo came to Moge's tribe.

When he learned that the Qi envoy was coming, Jiannige looked in disbelief.

Could it be that the Qi army had already captured Datong?
But then I thought about it and felt something was wrong. News came a few days ago that the Qi army had just captured Weizhou and was preparing to encircle Datong.

Even if Datong is captured, it will be too late to get here.

At this time, a big man said: "Your Majesty, the Qi envoy suddenly came to visit. I'm afraid he wants to persuade us to surrender. Why don't we just kill him and take the Qi envoy's head to claim credit from the Jin people."

This person is Yannige’s younger brother, Zazag.

Jingnige waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Don't act rashly. First, try to find out what these Qi envoys are here for, and then make a decision."

After that, he ordered: "Please bring the envoys of Qi into the account."

Under the rule of the Liao Kingdom for more than 200 years, the herdsmen of the grassland tribes still maintained their simple nature, but the nobles had long since become human beings, and each of them was very thoughtful.

After receiving the approval, Ma Kuo straightened his official uniform, led his bodyguards, and walked towards the felt tent located in the central area. Along both sides of the road stood a row of soldiers holding torches.

All of them were tall, with fierce auras, and stared at Ma Kuo and others with ferocious eyes.

Ma Kuo knew in his heart that this was an intimidation given to him by Jian Nige, so he was not afraid and walked forward with his chest high.

Approaching the felt tent, two guards stretched out their hands, one on the left and the other on the right, to stop Ma Kuo.

One of the soldiers glanced at the Xuanjia Army behind him and said sternly: "Only three people are allowed to enter the tent, and they must remove their weapons."

"Zhang Dutou, Lu Cheng, you two go in together with me."

Ma Kuo said, taking off the steel knife from his waist and passing it over.

"it is good."

Zhang Dutou and the other two responded.

After taking off their weapons, the three of them entered the felt tent.

Jian Nige sat in the middle, staring at Ma Kuo closely.

After dusting off his official uniform, Ma Kuo bowed calmly and said in fluent Khitan: "Ma Kuo, the envoy of the State of Qi, has met the king."

Zazhage, who was sitting under Jiannige, suddenly shouted: "You are so brave. Don't you know that Qi State is at war with our Jin State, and you still dare to come?"

Ma Kuo replied calmly: "If the two countries are at war, we will not kill the envoys."

Zazag sneered and said: "Those are your rules in the Central Plains. On the grassland, you must abide by our rules!"

Ma Kuo smiled slightly and said loudly: "Since I dare to come, I have already disregarded life and death. Death is just here, so why should I be afraid? But the king doesn't know that he is already in disaster."

"You fart!"

Zazag stood up suddenly and held the handle of the knife at his waist with his right hand.

"Zazag, sit down."

Seeing that Zazag was aroused by the other party's few words, Yannige, who had been watching with a cold eye, slowly spoke.

"Humph!"

Zazag snorted coldly, glared at Ma Kuo fiercely, and then sat down reluctantly.

Jiannige said calmly: "My brother is a rough man and has a hot temper. Please sit down, envoy of Qi State."

Ma Kuo bowed his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for sitting here. I came to visit you this time and brought some gifts from the Central Plains. I hope Your Majesty will not dislike it."

After saying that, Zhang Dutou and Lu Cheng opened the wooden boxes in their hands and placed them on the low table.

In the wooden box, there are two glazed vessels.

One is a green wolf, and the other is an eagle.

The firing process, which has been improved many times, makes these two glazed vessels radiant and lifelike under the firelight.

Zazag's eyes lit up, and undisguised love and greed appeared on his face.

Jiannige's performance was much better, but the fleeting surprise in his eyes still could not escape Ma Kuan's eyes.

Although following Jin Guo's ass has brought many benefits, they have never seen such a good thing.

Given the quality of these two glazed vessels, even if they were placed in Kaifeng Mansion, they could be sold for tens of thousands of dollars.

So it's not surprising that the two of them behaved this way.

After all, Jianig was extraordinary. He just admired it for a few times and then withdrew his gaze.

Seeing this scene, Ma Kuo knew that this person was difficult to deal with.

A person who knows how to exercise restraint can accomplish something big or small.

It seems that Yelu Dashi is right. Being able to prevent Moge from losing his troops under the drastic changes and avoid military disasters, and taking advantage of the situation to expand, should not be underestimated.

When Ma Kuo sat down, Jian Nige said in a deep voice: "I wonder if there is any evidence for the envoy who just said that the king is in danger of imminent disaster? You need to know that in my life, I hate people who are alarmists and exaggerators."
