mountain top.

Several nobles gathered around Tiao Ku's sliding pole.

Pedestrian Dong spread his hands and said: "Now the Xin family has given me face, but it can only be said that it is difficult to snatch the grain from the Xin family.

Therefore, my idea is to accept Xinqu's invitation. He just wants us to help guard the border. Anyway, we need to recuperate now, so there is no reason to refuse.

Otherwise, if you are listed as an enemy by the Xin family, I believe you all know the title system I told you. Everyone sitting here has titles on their heads. Many slaves and naturalized people will be even more crazy in their attempts to kill our heads. .

Not to mention the group of soldiers at the foot of Xin's Mountain.

five hundred!I never thought that Xin Qu would actually swallow Chang Xinshi!
In short, if there were only 5000 to [-] people before and you came to cause trouble, you might still have a chance.Now, facing an enemy three times our size, what should we do?
Now there is only one road up and down the mountain, and the other party has blocked the foot of the mountain, so we have no way to go. "

"That's enough!" Lin Boyu gritted his teeth and said, "You are the happiest among everyone now!"

"Am I happy? Who the hell did I believe? Do you know that what Xin Qu hates most is betrayal! Whose face did those five hundred soldiers at the foot of the mountain slap with a pestle? My face!

Look at my face! "

Xingrendong pointed at his face, his acting skills at full tilt: "Do you know what this means? I betrayed the emperor and my ancestors and swore an oath with you to form a clan together!
So you reject me like this? "

"Who knows if you tricked us into killing him?"

"I lied to you? Now in all directions, the only one who has food is the Xin family! The only one who has not been directly offended by us is the Xin family! At the beginning, Xin Qu also invited you to come out and promised to arrange salt for you!

When the Youxin Sect was developing at its fastest, I left the Youxin Sect to come find you!
This is a sign that Xinshi attaches great importance to commitment!But what's in exchange?
Okay, you continue to make trouble and create.You don’t want the food, I want it! "

Pingrendong got up and called someone to get it.

"Wait! Why should I give you the food!" Lin Boyu started making trouble again and became jealous!
"Why? Just because I am still a member of the Xin family! According to the rules of the Xin family! As long as the clan leader does not relinquish my position in person, I will still be a member of the Xin family! Can you go down and give it a try? See if you can Don’t tell me my name and take the food from the soldiers below?”

Xingrendong stopped, tilted his head and mocked disdainfully: "Go! Go and try, let us also try to see the strength of Xin's warriors!"

"you!"

"That's enough!" Tiao Ku finally spoke out. If he didn't speak again, the Lai family would collapse.

"Xingren Dong, please go get the food. In addition, help me make an appointment with the clan leader of the Xin clan. I want to talk to him." Although Tiao Ku said this, there was a sharp cold light in his eyes.

Pedestrians in winter can’t believe it either.

"Okay." Xingrendong didn't refuse, because he also knew very well that the Xin family's power was revealed now, and he was warning the Lai family not to seek death.

With the Xin family, hitting them now is just like a joke.

As soon as he left, Lin Boyu spat and cursed: "This bastard! He really takes himself seriously! Doesn't he just have a well-developed relative? Who do you think he is?"

"That's enough, don't say these words that are not conducive to unity." The clan leader of the Lin tribe finally spoke. He banged the crutch in his hand, which made Lin Boyu shrink his neck in fear, not daring to make a mistake.

"It's a bitter experience. I think the price of having Xin's family is good. It's more useful to guard the border for them for a year than to be trapped in the mountains." Tribe Lin explained his thoughts in one sentence.

Nothing is more important than tribe continuity.

Lin Boyu was stunned, and just when he was about to refute, the Ku tribe leader beside him also nodded slightly and said, "I agree too."

Tiao Ku quickly walked around the group of people and said with a smile: "I will negotiate with Youxin. Of course, I still hope to negotiate a suitable price."

Chief Lin said with satisfaction: "Okay."

"I hope you can do it." The chief of the Ku tribe waved his staff slightly and began to sing a prayer to communicate with the gods and pray for blessings.

On the other hand, the mountain tribe leader said nothing and watched their actions.

The reason is very simple. Yamabe cannot control the overall situation of the Lai family. He can only become a weight in Tiao Ku's hands to balance the forces of various families, just like Xingren Dong before.

down the mountain.

Pedestrian Dong saw Bing Jia.

When Bing Jia saw him like this, he was stunned: "Uncle Dong, you..."

"It's all for the survival of more tribesmen." Xingren Dong shook his head slightly, "Only half of the fifty or sixty young men we took out survived. Their ashes are all here. You can take them back."

"..."

Bing Jia was stunned for a moment, then quickly got out of the car, picked up a can of clothes and sighed: "Some of them were still playing with me last year, but they are gone this year."

Xingrendong didn't say anything, he was the one who led these people out.

result……

"That's right, Ryuzaru."

The golden-armored man who was moving the urn was stunned and raised his head: "Brother Dong, what's going on?"

Xingrendong looked at Liu Yuan: "Seeing you, I suddenly want to ask, is there any news from the south?"

"Yes, but the news has been banned by the clan leader. If you have any questions, please go to the clan leader."

Liu Yuan said expressionlessly and moved the jar away.

Xingrendong nodded.

"Are you asking about Shu Xi?" Bing Jia raised his eyebrows slightly.

Shu Xi, the second son named Xi, is eighteen years old.

He was born to a widow in the clan, and the clan used to think he was a posthumous son. Then Bing Jia passed by the yard while playing one day and saw Xingren Dong being very attentive to the widow.

I used to think that Xingrendong was planning to marry this widow. After all, Xingrendong was only fifteen at that time, and he was about to start looking for a match.

As a result, the widow died of a sudden illness shortly after giving birth to Shuxi. Shuxi was taken to be raised by the widow's uncle's family, who went on an expedition with her last time.

Pingren Donggan laughed twice: "Why do you always pay attention to these things?"

"What do you mean you always pay attention to these things? Wait, don't you think that a group of the 500 people behind me came back from the south?"

"Isn't there?" Xing Rendong took a look, "Although there are many new faces, there are always one or two that are familiar."

"No, those who came back from the south are all staying in Yanqing Town. Some of these people are from the Changxin clan, Yao and other concubines, and some are from our Xin clan."

Bingjia shook his head slightly and said, "The old patriarch from the south probably won't be able to come back. In the past two days, people from the Shang royal family have come to visit us."

"The Shang royal family?" Xingren Dong was surprised, "This is incredible. Are you really just here as a guest?"

"We have to wait for Xinqu to deal with the specific situation. We don't know the situation. We only know that the Shang royal family lives in Xiaoyi, south of Changping. Xinqu put [-] soldiers in Ze's city. The purpose is to prevent the Shang family from really Evil intentions.

They have more than 300 chariots, horsemen, and soldiers, and they have complete armor and lacquer shields, so their strength is not weak.

If we were in Changping, we wouldn't be able to use it and we might be blocked in the city.

In Zeshi Town, you can attack from both front and back at any time without being stuck in the city and unable to get out, so as to maximize your effectiveness. "

Bing Jia explained a little, then glanced at the mountain, "Of course," Xin Qu said, Ze's city had to guard against the people from the mountains and the people from the Ji's in the south. Take the time to repair the river and prepare rafts and sailboats here.

When summer comes and the water rises, we can go down the river and cross the Bei Wuding River along the waterway at any time to reach other Ji clan tribes.

Therefore, if we are not seen here, it means there is a miraculous effect and we can be dispatched at any time.Even going northeast can reinforce the market camp.

As a result, nothing happened elsewhere, but you emerged from the southwest mountains first. "I understand, but if you send someone to tell Xinqu, just say that Tiaoku wants to negotiate."My feeling is that she might want to get some benefits, or change the site where she is stationed, such as the mountain pass from Wuding River to Pingyuan. "

After hearing this, Bing Jia looked at Zeyu. Zeyu frowned, thought about the location, then shook his head and said, "That side is now Ji's territory. If you go there and use our name, it may cause unnecessary disputes.

Therefore, it is basically impossible to succeed.

On the contrary, in Shanxi, we had just married Tufang, and Tufang gave us Shanggu and Zhuolu.

Now the Shanggu is controlled by the Snake Hao tribe of the Rong clan, and Zhuolu is run by ourselves. However, there is a mountainous plain between the Shanggu and the clan leader named it Xuanhua. It can accommodate about 5000 people. tribe.

Going over there will actually lead to better prospects. "

"Okay, I'll go tell them." Xingren Dong and the others quickly exchanged information and then transported the food up.

Finally, Lai, who had been hungry for a long time, quickly divided the food and ate it.

"The damn Xin family is here! Sou! It's better to go down and grab more!"

Lin Boyu was eating his father's food and scolding his mother at the same time. It can be said that he perfectly interpreted the villain's expression: "That's it! It's only enough for us to eat for three days! Is it enough?!"

"This is ten days' worth. If you finish it in three days, you can figure out how to do it yourself."

Pedestrian Dong chuckled.

"You!" Lin Boyu rolled up his sleeves, "Whose side are you on?!"

"I have never seen you so shameless. I gave you food for the sake of the earth. If you don't eat it, you will be disgusted and scold me. I praise you for being a brave man.

But if you eat others and scold them at the same time, I have the Xin family but I can’t stand it anymore. If you don’t want to eat it, spread it out and give it to those who need it!

Or shut up!If you really want to annoy me, believe it or not, I will send someone down to make an appointment with Yamashita right now, and find a time to kill your Linbu directly!I'll take your heads as a pledge to go home! "

Xingren Dong raised his foot and kicked it. At the same time, he pulled out the ax from his waist and pointed at Lin Boyu coldly: "At the foot of the mountain, there are five hundred soldiers and a population of more than 1. If you still want to commit suicide and plunder, I will not Please accompany me."

"What the hell..." Lin Boyu was about to have a seizure.

"That's enough!" The leader of the Lin tribe punched his crutch, and Lin Boyu immediately became scared.

"A-Dong, don't worry if the young man talks a little more."

"Elder, you have a good heart, but I can't do it. Although I joined the Lai clan, in the final analysis, the Xin clan is also my mother clan. How can you always sit back and ignore it when you see your mother clan being scolded like this? Besides, Yes, you asked me to borrow food, so I acted as a guarantee and led the way.

Now, want to rob?
Then all I can say is, if you risk your life, don’t take me with you, otherwise I will be listed as an enemy by Xin Qu.

With the Xin clan, they could not use the heads of slaves and lower-class people, nor use them as human sacrifices.

But the nobility, starting from the middle level, every one of them counts, their heads are all head-level skills, the Xin family will not leave us, do you understand? "

Xingren Dong put away his ax and sneered: "We don't care about each other's strength. The five hundred golden armors under the mountain are more than enough to penetrate us. There is no one who dares to risk their lives to provoke them."

Pedestrian Dongyou shouted and continued to share the food.

Soon, dusk.

Smoke was already rising from the mountains, and Xinqu arrived outside Zeshi with 2000 people.

"Oops! Down the mountain! Another bunch of carriages and horses are coming down the mountain!"

The expressions of everyone who was eating changed slightly, and they hurried to the hillside and looked down at the situation down the mountain.

In the dusk on the plains, the flags were flying around. The white tiger battalion's big pestle was in the middle of the army, and the "Shang" flag followed beside it.

"I knew it! Xingrendong! What do you mean? Do you want to harm us?"

Lin Boyu's expression suddenly changed and he wanted to take action.

But as soon as he turned around, he was hit on the head with a stick: "Ah! Dad! What are you doing?! Let me kill this bastard! He is deceiving us!"

"Hold on! If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will break your legs!"

Chief Lin was furious, how could he have such a stupid kid?
Can't you see this?
The Xin family is here to show off their strength!We are not here to start a direct war with them!

"Hmph, I've already said that Xinqu is not to be trifled with. If he borrows food normally or exchanges food through border guarding, he will definitely agree, but if he wants to rob Xin, he won't look at his own wealth.

Below, there are more than 2000 apprentices, working with these [-] soldiers, who can outlast whom? "

Pedestrian Dong spread his hands, tutted and shook his head.

"Okay, let's go back to eat. We may have to run errands later."

Pedestrians go to carry rice bowls in winter.

The leader of the Lin tribe looked away, and the leader of the Shan tribe next to him suddenly said: "Is that the flag of the Shang royal family over there?"

"This... seems to be it." Tiao Kuye saw it, and his face changed slightly in shock.

"Oh, are you talking about the flag of the Shang royal family at the foot of the mountain? The clan said that people from the Shang royal family are coming to visit. If the negotiations are not settled, a war will begin. These businessmen are probably here to hunt. They have such a personality and like to plunder people and animals. , were caught by them, it’s unlikely that the Xin family would be able to save anyone.”

At this moment, a dark cloud enveloped everyone.

At the bottom of the mountain, after setting up camp, Xin Qu visually inspected the fire pile and compared it with the data given by nearby scouts and pedestrians Dong, and determined that there must be at least 800 people.

"It's a bit unexpected." Xin Qu thought for a while, "Invite people from the mountain to come down for negotiations. Whether to go or stay, we will know after the talks tonight."

"Yes."

The boy who was left behind quickly went out.

However, Zi Xun, who came back from a stroll not far away, saw Xin Qu riding up the mountain again, and came up with a smile: "Are you sure you don't want to fight? I really want to see if the Xin family can control the rush of things. How strong. Let’s try it out on the way to see who can capture more people and animals.”

"It doesn't matter whether we fight or not. What matters is how to get the maximum benefit at the minimum cost. With the Xin family, we can't easily start a war, but we must fight and win. If you can negotiate, it's best. If you can't negotiate, then kill them as quickly as possible. Courage.”

Xinqu put down the hand that was supporting his chin, and spoke with a calm tone, a gentle smile, and cold words.

"Use force to stop war. If they don't obey, kill the disobedient people and destroy their leaders directly. The rest will be prisoners of war and leaders who can become obedient and tame."

After hearing this, Zixun put his hands on his hands and smiled: "Yes! Your thoughts are very similar to mine! I think so too! Those disobedient leaders must be killed, and the remaining people will naturally become obedient."

The two communicated again, and soon someone came down from the mountain and said they could talk, but the location had to be decided by both parties.

Xinqu didn't refuse either.

Zixun said that he would not participate and followed Ziyu away.

"Xinqu is really not an ordinary danger." Ziyu said.

"Yes, there are not many people who have the same idea as me, but he has more restraint and power than me. With more than 1 people under his control, I can't do it, but he can actually do it!"

"The title system is useful. It is much easier to use than the one left by our ancestors."

"Yeah. I'll pay attention." Zixun nodded slightly, "Of course, I hope he can be used for me, otherwise I can only destroy him! What a pity. After talking along the way, although his ideas are a bit wild, but He is a good talent who can definitely help us if he stays by my side as a minister."

Ziyu nodded in agreement. Xinqu was indeed capable and talented. If they had encountered Xin when they were weak, they might have followed Zixun.

The situation in the south is not so chaotic.

Unfortunately, there are not so many ifs. (End of chapter)
