Chapter 287 Credentials
"Let Coyotito come out to see us!"
"Yes, call Coyotito quickly and let him come out to see us brothers!"
Two men wearing armor with purple stripes on their chests stood in the military camp and shouted angrily.
Around them were a group of savages.
At this time, in the barbarian army camp, the wails of men and the pitiful screams of women could be heard endlessly. This nation, which had been driven out of the Three Jin Lands and had suffered in the snowy fields for hundreds of years, was venting all its accumulated violence and depression on the people. In the past, they regarded the people of Jin as being superior.
Delicious and rich food,
Exquisite gold, silver and jade,
Strong and durable armor,
That beautiful woman who seems to be able to squeeze out water,
woohoo,
These ones,
But these are things that most savages will never be able to touch in their ten lifetimes, but now they are displayed in front of them, allowing them to enjoy them.
Stars,
It's like a dream!
"Those two guys, are they the two from the Situ family?"
There are two people sitting on the haystacks in the distance. One is Sanghu with a string of human skulls hanging around his neck. The one who asked the question is a one-eyed dragon man. This one-eyed dragon is called Grimu. He has delicate skin that is different from other savages. If If he wasn't one-eyed, he would look more like a scholar from Jin Dynasty.
In fact, he is indeed of Jin descent, but his grandfather fled into the snowfields because of a crime, and his family has been working for a savage tribe and managing business.
Later, the Savage King raised an army, and he was one of the first to respond. He had outstanding military exploits. The Savage King was still very generous in some aspects. He was not treated any differently because of his Jin bloodline, and he was allowed to serve as the leader of Wanhu. Position.
Under his command, there were a large number of defeated Jin people who were defeated and captured and then became slaves of the captives, which was suitable for him as a "Jin person" to command.
Sang Hu nodded, pointed at the two people who were still cursing there, and said:
"Exactly, one is named Situ Yi and the other is named Situ Jiong. They are from the Situ family, oh no, they are the brothers of Emperor Cheng of Situ Lei."
Grimu lowered his head and whispered while biting the grass stem:
"I heard that the king was once their slave?"
"Yes, there is nothing to be embarrassed to say. Grimu, the smell of Jin people on your body is still too strong. Not only will this not make us despise the king, but it will make us feel the king's greatness and nobility even more. "
"You know, I didn't mean that."
"Ha ha."
"What do those two people want to do when they come to the king now?"
"Because the king promised them two before that as long as our holy clan can enter the pass, he will support them to ascend the throne and become the co-owners of Xueyuan and Jin.
Without their help, we would not have been able to win several battles in a row in the snowfield at the beginning. If they had not cooperated internally and externally, the Snow Customs would not have been so easily broken by us.
The two of them put a lot of effort into the entry of our Saint Clan into the Pass. "
"These two people are really brainless." Grimm said with emotion.
Now and then, the savages were just wandering ghosts in the snowy fields. They naturally had to bow to you and you could boss them around to your heart's content. But now, the savages have entered the pass and half of the country has been lost. How dare they do this? Pannada shouted the king's name in the military camp.
"No matter how cheerful and domineering they are now, in fact, they are more afraid than everyone else. Their current arrogance is just to cover up the fear and cowardice in their hearts.
Moreover, they still have some uses. Some of the Situ family's cities and the generals who lead the troops still need to be contacted and moved around. It is best to surrender if they can get them to surrender. "
"so troublesome."
"Grimu, why are you more like a saint than our saints?"
"I have already believed in the stars."
“Haha, you know, I didn’t mean that;
In fact, the two princes of the Situ family, if Situ Lei had not died in Xuehaiguan, the king really planned to help one of them ascend the throne.
Our foundation is still in the snowfield. "
Hearing this, Grimm suddenly became dissatisfied and said:
"Why!"
"Which one are you referring to?"
"I don't want to go back. My family used to live here. Now that I'm back, I haven't thought about going back to the snowfield. It's much more comfortable here than the snowfield."
“Who says it’s not, but you have to know that if you try to eat a whole sheep in one go, your belly will be burst.
We have to take it step by step. Now, we will first move the population, craftsmen, women, and children of the Situ family in Chengguo to the snowy plains.
Let their children, when they grow up, only speak the language of my holy clan and become warriors of my holy clan!
Let their women continue to reproduce for our holy race and raise more people!
Let their craftsmen create more tools and weapons for our holy clan!
Let their men herd our cattle and build our cities!
It's not that we don't want to live here forever, Grimu, you were once from Jin, and this was your home, but you have to know that in the longer past, this was the homeland of my holy clan.
Coming back is like a dream, so we are more like grasping something truly. We are afraid of this dream and suddenly wake up, and in the end, nothing is left behind. "
Grimm took a breath and asked:
"Is it because... Yanren?"
Chengguo's most elite and most skilled troops were buried north of Xuehaiguan. Today, Chengguo can only barely resist. Their troops in the south, which have been guarding the border of Chu all year round, are even more isolated. Once there, there was no way to come back for help.
Situ Lei was seriously injured and escaped. If Situ Lei dies, the complete collapse of Chengguo can be said to be only a matter of time. The only variable is,
It was probably the country called "Yan" to the west of Chengguo.
They once sent expeditionary troops across the Tianduan Mountains and into the snowfields. But now, once the Cheng Kingdom completely collapses, the savages will directly face the reaction from the Yan Kingdom.
During this period, there was no barrier from the Tianduan Mountains.
Sang Hu nodded heavily and said:
"So, Wang Cai slowed down the pace of the attack. Maybe in your opinion, it gave Chengguo a chance to breathe, but doesn't it give us a chance to breathe?"
"Yan people, are they really that scary?"
"not to be trifled."
A voice came from behind the two of them. Alai, holding a leg of lamb in his hand, jumped onto the haystack with an iron mask on his face.
Sang Hu turned around, glanced at Alai, and said with a smile:
"You kid, you almost didn't come back."
"I was running fast. I was just a little bit caught by the Yan people. There was a little dwarf in the Yan people's army. I was just a little bit close, really just a little bit close. That little dwarf caught me. , I was also lucky, I ran into a monster in the mountains, and I was lucky enough to escape."
Grimu turned to look at Alai and said, "Yan people, are they really that scary?"
"If you can't provoke me now, I'll try my best not to provoke him. Wait until our warriors get more armor, wait until our army becomes larger, wait until more and more tribes on the snowfield surrender, then , we have the confidence to truly fight against the Yan people."
"Alai, you are frightened by the Yan people." Grimm teased.
"No, these are the king's exact words. You don't think the king is a coward, do you? No one in this world hopes to defeat the Yan Kingdom more than the king;
In that way, we can force the Yan people to surrender and send the princess over for marriage. This is the king's dream. "
At this time,
With the two princes of the Situ family scolding and shouting,
A man wearing wolf skin walked out from the depths of the camp.
When the man passed by, all the savages around him knelt down.
And this man,
But he ran directly to the two princes of the Situ family,
"Snap" sound,
Kneel down,
shouted:
"Grandpa, Grandpa, and Coyotito are here to say hello to you."
.........
Yingcheng was originally the place where the Situ family made its fortune. After the founding of the Dacheng Kingdom, it was renamed Yingdu.
Outside the city, soldiers and horses from various places were arriving one after another. Some of them had clear-cut banners, but most of them already showed a chaotic atmosphere.
Originally, the Situ family was built in a hurry, and there was still a layer of suspicion hanging over Situ Lei's father-killing. In fact, some forces within the Situ family did not have time to integrate.
Originally, all of this could be eliminated through war against the barbarians. When a new country was first established, it was always the most effective way to stabilize people's hearts and maintain the authority of the new king with a great victory in foreign wars.
However, all these assumptions were played out.
The elite members of the Situ family were buried in the Snow Customs, and the savages entered the customs. The Dacheng Kingdom, which had been established for less than a year, was already in a state of turmoil.
Now, many pairs of eyes are staring at the palace.
Situ Lei did not die in Xueguan, he came back alive, but everyone knew, even the people of Yingdu, that Situ Lei came back seriously injured.
This new country is already on the verge of fragmentation. If even its founding king dies at this time, what else can this country do to maintain it?
In the palace,
Situ Lei was covered with a quilt, and there were two charcoal pots burning in the room. The weather had already been hot, but Situ Lei's body was still chilling.
His lips were white and his eyes were sunken. He was actually not too old, but now he felt like he was exhausted.
In front of his bed, Sun Youdao, the Prime Minister of Dacheng Kingdom, was drafting the letter of credence.
After writing the last stroke, Sun Youdao raised his credentials, blew on it, then looked at the monarch on the bed and said:
"Your Majesty, it's written."
Situ Lei looked at the eunuch who had been waiting on the side of the bed. The eunuch understood and took out the big seal.
Just when I was about to cover it,
Sun Youdao suddenly took a step back and knelt down.
Crying:
"Your Majesty, if your Majesty can take good care of himself and reorganize his troops, there may be hope of defeating the savages and regaining the country!"
Situ Lei looked at his prime minister,
lips open,
He said in an extremely hoarse voice:
"If you lose everything and then admit defeat, people will look down on you."
"His Majesty!"
"It's still a bit brave to admit defeat while you still have some wealth and capital."
"I hope Your Majesty think twice!"
"There is a way."
"I am here, Your Majesty."
"One more sentence, one more sentence."
Sun Youdao immediately wiped his tears, unfolded the scroll again, and picked up the brush;
"I... no, I, Situ Lei, do not seek the position of the king, nor the fiefdom, nor the shadow, nor the future of the Situ family. Today, I will send the ruins of the country to you. The only thing I seek is;
Please Yan...please His Majesty the Great Emperor send out a large army to drive out the barbarians as soon as possible and give peace to our people in the Three Jin Dynasties. "
