Tang Dynasty: The seventh rank of official residence, and you will be given the Ten Thousand People

Chapter 132 Megatron!

After Fan Xin separated from the Turkic merchants, he chased them forward at full speed.

To his surprise, Princess Taiping did not go to Lingzhou alone, but ordered the team to wait at a location not far away.

Seeing him coming back, Xue Huaiyi said angrily.

"I asked Fan Shaoqing, how could a mere few hundred Turkic cavalry be delayed for so long?"

"You told me earlier, the poor monk could make them disappear with just one move of the mighty Tianlong."

As soon as these words came out, several noble disciples who came with him suddenly showed expressions of admiration, as if they were back to the scene that day when Master Xue released the Buddha's light and his chest was broken by rocks.

Unlike Fan Xin, they really believed that Xue Huaiyi had the ability to destroy the Turkic cavalry.

Not to mention anything else, who can catch up to Master Xue with just one move of floating on water with iron legs?

Xue Huaiyi and Fan Xin shook his head after taking a glance at Zhuge Liang.

"Master Xue doesn't have to worry about the Turkic cavalry. You'd better replenish your kidneys, otherwise you won't be able to justify peeing in your crotch again."

"you!"

Xue Huaiyi's expression changed and he stared at Fan Xiandao fiercely.

"How dare you insult me, General! I'll fight you!"

Seeing the two sides arguing, Wei Peng came over on horseback and clasped his fists at the two of them.

"The two deposed deputy envoys are still some distance away from Lingzhou City. Her Royal Highness the Princess invites you to the carriage to discuss how to deal with the upcoming negotiations."

"Please!"

"Hmph, I'll settle accounts with you later!"

Xue Huaiyi straightened his monk's robe and rode towards the carriage.

Looking back, Wei Peng cupped his fists and said.

"Fan Shaoqing, I would like to advise you not to underestimate Master Xue."

"Not only did this person have a close relationship with the Queen Mother, but he also sent troops to attack the Western Turks and had a very deep friendship with the then Prince Mo Chui."

"Once you offend him severely, you will be the one who suffers in the end. It's better to find an opportunity to take the initiative and give in."

Fan Xin just smiled at Wei Peng's kindness and rode towards the carriage.

Looking at his back, Wei Peng sighed in disappointment.

Sure enough, he is still young and does not know how high the sky is. How can it be that Master Xue has made it this far in vain?
In the carriage, seeing the two of them paying no attention to each other, Princess Taiping frowned slightly.

"You two, internal strife is the most taboo thing when negotiations are imminent. If you do this again, go back to Luoyang. I will go and negotiate with the Turks myself!

Noticing that Princess Taiping's face was not good-looking, Xue Huaiyi rolled his eyes and patted his chest.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, with me, Xue Huaiyi, this negotiation will be successfully completed."

"When the poor monk led troops to help Mo Chuu attack the Western Turks, he saw that he looked depressed and gave him half a piece of cooking cake."

"I think he will be grateful for Xiao Monk's kindness during this negotiation and will not make too harsh demands."

"Just wait for the good news in a down-to-earth manner."

Regarding the fact that Xue Huaiyi sent troops to the Western Turks to help Mo Chui, Princess Taiping had heard something about it, so her expression softened a bit.

Although Xue Huaiyi is a bit sweet-tongued, he is still capable of doing things.

Maybe he really has to rely on him to complete the negotiation with the Turks this time.

After thinking about this, Princess Taiping looked at Fan Xin on the right

"Fan Xin, what do you mean?"

"If you eat the king's salary, you will naturally share your worries. The lower officials know what is right." Fan Xin said calmly.

"Okay, since you two have this intention, I have nothing to worry about."

Princess Taiping breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled and said in relief.

"However, you don't have to worry too much. I met Mo Chui several times when he came to Luoyang, and we were quite friendly with him.

"He probably won't make excessive demands in this negotiation. The most he can ask for is some copper coins and grain."

"And what our Tang Dynasty lacks most is these two things."

Seeing Princess Taiping and Xue Huaiyi full of confidence, Fan Xin left the carriage alone without saying anything.

He left his front foot and the two envoys on the back foot and ran towards Black Sand City.

……

Black Sand City.

"So, Sun Wanrong is willing to hand over half of the city in order to win over our Turks?"

In the dental tent, a thin man with a cloth turban on his head was lying on a large tiger-skin chair.

There was a naked woman on the left and right, kneading his thighs.

"That's right, Great Khan. The secret agent has just received news that Sun Wanrong's troops have severely damaged the main force of the Tang Army in the Dongshi Canyon area and are currently marching towards Yingtan Prefecture."

"It will take at most another month to capture the two states mentioned above."

"The Khitan envoy said that as long as we sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, they are willing to sacrifice four cities and 20 Han slaves afterwards."

The one-eyed man kneeling on the ground said excitedly: Great Khan, God-given opportunity, you must not miss this opportunity.

Mo Chuo laughed and hugged the two women into his arms.

While ravaging crazily, he said greedily: Of course Ben Khan will not miss this opportunity.

He sent a messenger to tell Sun Wanrong that in order to show our sincerity, the Turks would deliberately delay the negotiations and wait until they captured the two states of Yingtan before sending out symbolic troops to attack the Khitan. "

"As compensation, they need to provide food and grass for the 20-strong army to allow my Turkic people to survive this terrible famine."

While talking, a Turkic guard walked into the tent.

"Informing the Great Khan, two envoys from the Tang Dynasty came outside the city, saying they were envoys from Princess Taiping and General Xue Huaiyi."

"I want to talk to you about going to Lingzhou to negotiate."

Mo Chui was startled: Princess Taiping, Xue Huaiyi, did Tang Dynasty send them here?

"Great Khan, do you know these two people?" the one-eyed dragon asked curiously.

Mo Chui nodded: "Last year in Luoyang, Khan Khan and Princess Taiping did several transactions, and they still had some friendship."

"When Xue Huaiyi was attacking the Western Turks, he baked a cake with his own hands and asked the Khan to taste it."

When the two of them were mentioned, Mo Chuo showed a look of disapproval on his face. Seeing that the one-eyed dragon was about to speak, he stopped smiling and said.

"Don't worry, Ben Khan knows what's important and what's important, and he won't give any excuse to the hardliners of the Ashina family."

Speaking of this, Mo Chui glanced at the guards and said, "Just tell them that Khan is ill and doesn't have time to see them."

"Yes!"

The guard clasped his fists and was about to leave when a cold voice suddenly came from outside the tent.

"Father Khan, I think you should meet Tang Envoy."

The curtain opened and a heroic Turkic woman walked in from the outside.

Judging from the dusty appearance on his body, it was obvious that he had just returned from a sandy land.

"Yinzhu, didn't Father Khan ask you to go to Lingzhou to negotiate with the Tang Dynasty envoys? Why are you back?"

Seeing his daughter appear in the big tent, Mo Chui signaled the maid to exit and asked with a surprised look on his face.

Yin Zhu sat on the chair and took a sip of the goat's milk wine, then squatted down the cup on the table.

"Don't mention it. As soon as the team entered Lingzhou, they were attacked by Tiele cavalry."

"If an official named Fan Renyan hadn't led the army to rescue him, Yinzhu would have died by now."

"What did you say!" Mo Chui stood up abruptly, with a scary face.

He never expected that the humble Tiele tribe would dare to attack and kill his daughter!If this wasn't done completely, wouldn't it bring shame to the Ashina family?

Glancing at his frightened father, Yinzhu spoke.

"Compared with the children of the Tiele tribe, they are more worried about the Tang army. You don't know that the Tiele tribe specially sent a cavalry of 400 people in order to successfully attack and kill them."

"And they didn't even last half an hour in front of this powerful Tang army before they were easily wiped out."

"Afterwards, I counted the losses of the Tang army. Only three people were injured and no one was killed."

quiet!
The silence in the tent was eerily quiet. Everyone stared blankly at the Turkic girl, with shock in their eyes.

Although the cavalry of the Turer tribe is not as good as the main force, it is still a force that cannot be underestimated.

If you want to kill four hundred cavalry with infantry, your opponent will need at least more than 2000 infantry.

However, such an existence was easily eliminated by three hundred Tang troops.

How can this be?

Mo Chui had been dealing with Datang for many years, and the two sides had no less than ten conflicts, large and small, and he soon noticed something unusual.

"Yinzhu, do these Tang troops use Modao?"

What he feared the most in the entire Tang Dynasty was the Tang Army's Modao Team. If it were them, it would be possible to eliminate the Tiele tribe's cavalry.

Unexpectedly, the Turkic princess sighed: "No, these Tang troops are wearing flying bear uniforms, red middle coats, and tiger gold boots."

"The weapon used is very strange. Just throw it at the enemy's feet and it will explode violently in the blink of an eye."

"The Tiele cavalrymen were buried in the explosion before they even recovered."

hiss!
Everyone in the tent took a breath of cold air. They had never seen such a powerful weapon after fighting for so many years. Just throwing it at the enemy would kill them in pieces.

This is much more powerful than a sword.

There were many wise men among the Turks. When they heard that the Tang army had such weapons, they stood up and said.

"Great Khan, from Princess Yinzhu's description, it seems that the Tang Army has probably mastered this weapon and is quietly mass-producing it."

"If this is the case, we must reconsider our attitude towards Datang."

"Yes, the Tang army held back such powerful weapons, but borrowed troops from us Turks. It was clear that they wanted to test our attitude."

"If our true intentions are revealed, then once the Tang army's secret weapons are deployed, will we Turks end well?" One-eyed Dragon echoed.

Facing his subordinate's suggestion, Mo Chui's expression kept changing, sometimes regretful, sometimes fearful, and finally let out a long sigh.

"In the past two years, Mobei has suffered from continuous famine, and the Turks have lived a very difficult life. This Khan really does not want to give up the fertile land of the Tang Dynasty."

Yinzhu knew what he was thinking and said: "Father Khan, you don't have to have high expectations for the Khitan people. It is impossible for them to capture the two states of Yingtan."

Seeing that their daughter was so sure, Mo Chui and others were extremely surprised.

"Why is this?"

Yin Zhu sneered and took out a notice from the Tang Dynasty.

"The spies said that when great changes occurred in Yingzhou last year, Li Jinzhong and Sun Wanrong led tens of thousands of cavalry to attack Yingzhou."

"As a result, a civil servant named Fan Xin led three thousand minor officials to block him outside for several days, and he couldn't even enter the city gate."

"In the end they had no choice but to flee to the south of Yingzhou. They couldn't even defeat thousands of officials. Can they defeat the Tang army with new weapons?"

As soon as these words came out, the Turkic leaders, including Mo Chui, were shocked and looked at Yin Zhu in disbelief.

"Are you telling the truth?"

"It's absolutely true!" Yin Zhu said with a solemn expression as he looked at the vast yellow sand in the distance.

"Father Khan, the Tang Dynasty is far from declining in national power. We cannot be fooled by its appearance."

This time Mo Chui did not answer in a hurry, but looked thoughtful.

a long time.

He took a breath and said.

"It is impossible to ask Ben Khan to give up fertile land."

"Well, if the envoys of the Tang Dynasty have a tough attitude during the negotiations, it means that they have hidden strength."

"When we set conditions, we are limited to necessary grain, grass and copper coins."

"On the contrary, if they swallow their anger, it means that the Tang Dynasty has reached the point where it is strong on the outside and powerful on the inside. We not only ask for food and grass, but also five cities including Lingzhao."

Seeing that Mo Chuo had made up his mind, Yin Zhu and others stood up and put their right hands on their chests.

"I will obey the orders of the Great Khan!"

"Alright Yinzhu, on behalf of Father Khan, go to Lingzhou to negotiate with the envoys of the Tang Dynasty. By the way, you can meet the two envoys outside the city for me."

"Yes, Father Khan!" Yinzhu bowed and exited the tent.

This time, in order to prevent a surprise attack, she took two thousand cavalry to Lingzhou.

When the two envoys from the Tang Dynasty saw the silver beads, they were both ecstatic.

Originally they thought they would be turned away, but unexpectedly the Turkic princess actually received them in person.

"Don't worry, princess, we will go back and inform Your Highness and General Xue right now!" The two envoys from the Tang Dynasty clasped their fists and prepared to leave the team.

What surprised them was that the Turkic princess suddenly spoke up.

"Two envoys, please be patient."

"Princess, you?"

"I dare to ask the distinguished envoy of the Tang Dynasty if there is an official with handsome appearance and outstanding temperament among the people who came to negotiate."

"His name seems to be Fan Renyan." Yinzhu hesitated and said.

Turkic women admire heroes the most. Rather than going to negotiate this time, it is better to say that she wants to meet the heroic and domineering young official.

"Fan Renyan?" The two Tang envoys looked at each other and shook their heads.

"To be fair to the princess, there is no official named Fan Renyan in the team that came to negotiate this time."

"But according to your description, there is someone who fits it very well."

"Who?"

"Xue Huaiyi, the great general of the auxiliary country, is a man of outstanding appearance and talent. He practiced iron sand palm at the age of three and mastered water floating with iron legs at the age of five."

"When I was ten years old, my powerful Tianlong was even more powerful than anyone in the world."

"The most important thing is that his name is Xue Huaiyi, and his courtesy name is Renyan."

Hearing this, Yinzhu smiled happily.

"This princess is still surprised that she can't find anyone. It turns out that she used a fake name."

"Go back and tell your General Xue that this princess will personally treat him to a meal after arriving in Lingzhou to express her deep admiration."

"Go."

The two envoys from the Tang Dynasty bowed and walked out of the tent.

When he returned to the carriage, he said with emotion: "No wonder the Queen Mother thinks so highly of Master Xue and sent him to negotiate."

"Just inviting a Turkic princess to dinner is enough to go down in history!"

"Yes, with Master Xue and His Highness here we don't have to worry about losing money in the negotiations this time."

"It's ridiculous that the imperial court sent Fan Xin to join in blindly. It's really a waste of food."

"Forget it, let's go back and tell Her Royal Highness the Princess and Master Xue the good news."

"They must be arriving at Lingzhou City soon."

After saying this, the two men shook the reins and drove the carriage towards Lingzhou...
