Dawn of the Empire

Chapter 238: I'm Not Satisfied (4)

Liu Zheng was ridiculed by Du Chuanjiao, his face was feverish, and he said embarrassingly: "There are eighteen martial arts, and the bow is the first. I shot the barbarian to death a hundred steps away. How can I wait for him to get close. Let's talk , fighting on the battlefield, surrounded by 'chaotic' knives, 'chaotic' guns coming and going, how can we go around in circles like this." While speaking, he lifted his hard bow, as if holding the bow , I have enough confidence.

"If you don't listen to the old man's words, you will suffer in front of your eyes," Du Chuijiao said, staring, "According to what you said, 'Luan' will kill you, 'Luan' will kill you, our sword and shield contest is just taking off your pants and farting, is it unnecessary? "The mutual belittling between the sword and shield hand and the crossbow hand is always a gunpowder jar, Zhao Xingde scolded: "Everyone calm down," he held the horizontal knife in his arms, and said in a deep voice, "This is over." Although Yan Zonghan was extremely brave, there was a big flaw in his moves, that's why Miss Han restrained him to death."

"Really?" Liu Zheng hurriedly said, "What's the flaw?" Du Chuanjiao snorted and said with a smile, "Liu Yingxiong shot the man to death with an arrow from a distance, and he didn't care about the flaw in melee combat." What are you doing?" Liu Zheng was about to refute, but Zhao Xingde said in a low voice: "Split right." As soon as he finished speaking, Wan Yan Zonghan really cut to the right, but Han Ningshuang seemed to have expected it, almost While he was moving, he took half a step back and dodged the knife, and the long sword stretched out at the same time, piercing Wanyan Zonghan's chest.If it wasn't for Wan Yan Zonghan wearing heavy armor when practicing martial arts in order to strengthen his strength, this sword would have passed through his chest.Zhao Xingde secretly yelled that it was a pity, if he had enough physical strength and a good sword in his hand, he could pierce through even iron armor.

The long sword pierced the iron armor in front of his chest, and there was a "ding" sound, and the surrounding Jurchen girls uttered an exclamation, Wan Yan Zonghan staggered back a few steps, his face flushed, he looked down at his chest, roared, and fit He rushed forward again.

Zhao Xingde sighed, and said again: "Slash to the right again." Wanyan Zonghan seemed to follow his instructions, he slashed to the right, Zhao Xingde said again in a low voice: "Left." Wanyan Zonghan slashed to the left, Zhao Xingde continued He yelled several times, as if he and Wanyan Zonghan had practiced the oboe for a long time, and his words followed the sword without any mistakes.Although his voice was low, the sergeants and Han soldiers around him could hear him clearly, with an expression of disbelief on his face, Liu Zheng said even louder: "How could it be such a coincidence?"

Later, a group of sergeants and Han soldiers followed Zhao Xingde and shouted loudly: "Left" "Right." , the exhalation became heavier and heavier, and the steps of the feet became more and more chaotic. Finally, the strength was exhausted, and the knife was not enough. Han Ningshuang bullied him to get close, and the blade was placed flat on his shoulder. Han Ningshuang said coldly "Do you still want to compete?" Wanyan Zonghan said loudly: "Stop fighting, you are using witchcraft, next time I will invite the shaman."

Han Ningshuang's eyes fluctuated, she glanced at Zhao Xingde, and said to Wanyan Zonghan, "You are not skilled in art, but you are talking nonsense here." Wanyan Zonghan's eyes rolled slightly, and he said loudly, "Then tell me, how did he know that my sword is going to strike at me?" Where is it?" He seems to be rude, but in fact he is careful. Today, Zhao Xingde predicted his moves like a ghost, and Han Ningshuang restrained him to death. If he doesn't figure out the key point, he might not be able to sleep at night. Not stable.

Han Ningshuang smiled slightly and said, "Zong Han, I know what your plans are, but I won't tell you. Or, you go to worship that Han man as your teacher and let him teach you?" After finishing speaking, she took back the long sword and took a few steps back .Her appearance is quite chic, and the Han soldiers and Jurchen girls all around cheered loudly. Many Han soldiers had only heard of Han Ningshuang's name before, and knew that she was the only blood of the Han family, and the co-owner of more than forty Han villages in Liaodong. Sword defeating the Jurchen big man, he was surprised, but also secretly convinced.

Wanyan Zonghan glanced at Zhao Xingde, cursed Jurchen, turned around and left.Although the Kingdom of Jin is now planning to form an alliance with the Han army, the Wanyan tribe is growing like a sun, and even the Khitan have to avoid it. Given the humble status of the Han people in Liaodong, how can they let him worship them as teachers.He turned back to Wanyan Zongbi, angrily said: "This is clearly witchcraft!"

Wanyan Zongbi smiled and said: "This is the place of our Jurchen, blessed by Changshengtian and the old grandmother, how can we use witchcraft?" He drank a glass of wine and said, "Tell me about the situation at that time Wan Yan Zonghan said it again, shaking his head and said: "Ningshuang clearly and that Han man named Zhao De teased me, Zong Bi, I just don't understand, how can they see what I'm thinking, even I How can the Han see through the sword without even thinking about it? When I get the chance, I will arrest the Han and torture him to 'force' the witchcraft to be questioned."

Wanyan Zongbi's face darkened and he said: "Then Zhao De is an envoy of the Xia Kingdom, and he is a man of great ability. Now our enemy is the Liao Kingdom, and Father Khan is doing everything possible to form an alliance with Song and Xia. Zong Han, you must not cause trouble." After he finished his instructions, he was afraid that Wan Yan Zonghan would be overwhelmed, so he handed him a glass of wine and said, "When we deal with the life and death enemy of the Liao Kingdom, naturally we don't have to deal with those cunning people so carefully. of the Southern Dynasties."

Wanyan Zonghan drank the wine with a sullen face, and promised: "You don't need to remind me, I'm not a fool." Then he said: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, Ningshuang is with those Han people, Han people are with the Southern Dynasty people , I’m afraid your troubles will be in vain.” Wanyan Zongbi drank the wine and said with a smile: “You don’t have to worry about it.” He slammed the wine glass on the table.

In the manor of Huanglong Mansion, Mr. Han Da entertained the Han army from each village with great hospitality. The prime minister Wanyan Sagai, the second prince Wanyan Zongwang, the fourth prince Wanyan Zongbi and other relatives of Jin Kingdom often hosted the banquets for the Han army generals in each village. It can be said to be a small banquet in three days and a large banquet in five nights.That night, the Emperor Wanyan Aguda of the Kingdom of Jin inspected the Huanglong Mansion, and actually ordered the emperor to live in this manor, and held a big banquet, inviting the leaders of the Han army who were guests here.

Zhao Xingde only got the notification from Xu Detai at dusk, his heart sank, and he thought to himself, Jin Guo is determined to win against the strength of the Han army.He still has the status of an envoy of the Xia Kingdom here, so the seat is arranged on the upper table, very close to Wanyan Aguda, and he can clearly see the old emperor who is over sixty years old.

Compared with the Baiyu Palace in the Song Dynasty and Bo Nai, the emperor in the Daliao Dynasty, the Emperor’s Village in the Kingdom of Jin can be regarded as simple and shabby. There is a huge tent, and the ground is covered with bear skins and tiger skins. Gives off a strong smell.Under this tent was full of powerful and cronies of the Kingdom of Jin. The men ate meat, drank in large bowls, talked loudly, and teased the maidservants wantonly.The girls of the Wanyan tribe sang and danced, and brought silver bowls full of wine to distinguished guests. Zhao Xingde represented the country of Xia, and Han Ningshuang represented the Han army. In the middle the King of Jin toasts.

Wanyan Aguda's figure was extremely burly, his eyebrows and beard were all white, and his eyes were extremely sharp, as if they could penetrate people's hearts.He and Han Ningshuang drank a bowl of 'milk' wine, frowned and said, "What's wrong with Sagai, you should sit here." He patted the seat beside him.Wanyan Zongbi was standing next to that position, he raised his wine glass with a smile and said, "If Ningshuang marries into Wanyan's family, I don't know how much my father will like it." Wanyan Aguda didn't think he was disobedient when it came to drinking, and explained with a smile: "Wu Shu drank too much, I'll whip him later." Without waiting for Han Ningshuang to speak, he raised his glass and said to Zhao Xingde: "Come on, I Respect the honored guests who come from thousands of miles away.”

Whether it is Xia, Song, or Liao, there is no reason for the emperor to toast his envoys. However, since the Jin Dynasty first established the system, Wanyan Aguda doesn't care about these empty words. Today he is in great spirits, and he actually raised a glass to toast. Zhao Xingde quickly picked it up The wine glass, said with a smile: "I should be the one who respects His Majesty." After speaking, he poured down the wine in one gulp. The wine was extremely strong, with a milky smell straight to his forehead.Wanyan Agu laughed and said: "What a man!" He bowed his head and said to Zhao Xingde: "My Wanyan tribe is fishing, hunting, farming and weaving in the Taibai Mountains, and the Khitan people came here and killed us indiscriminately. Men, grab our women and 'force' us to fight and catch eagles for them. The Wanyan tribe raised troops, and the only enemy is the Liao Kingdom. I know that the Liao Kingdom is also the enemy of the Xia Kingdom. Why don't we join hands and defeat this mighty man together? Liao Kingdom."

Wanyan Aguda's weather-stained old face, and deep-set eye sockets, were full of sincerity. Zhao Xingde couldn't see clearly if it was because of his alcoholism, he said vaguely: "Your Majesty's I mean, the next official should report to the imperial court." He picked up his wine glass, and made a toast to Wanyan Agu.

Wanyan Aguda looked disappointed, and sighed: "Emissary Zhao is a truth-telling person, unlike some people who lie to us Jurchens." He drank the wine, frowned, and said in distress , "Why don't Xia people want to form an alliance with our Jurchens? You are not like Song people, who treat us as barbarians. You and Liao people are enemies. Why can't you form an alliance with Jurchens?" He looked at Zhao Xingde and said in a deep voice. He said, "Please be sure to take my words to the emperor of the Xia Kingdom. Also, among your five houses, the Jurchen enemies are only Khitan people. Even if we defeat the Liao Kingdom in the future and the land is next to the Xia Kingdom, we will I will never be an enemy of the Xia Kingdom." He paused, staring into Zhao Xingde's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Please believe me, our enemy is only the Liao Kingdom, and we will definitely not be enemies with other tribes."

Zhao Xingde nodded, and was about to deal with the situation first, but after listening to Yan Aguda, he sighed again: "I said the same to the envoy of the Song Dynasty, everyone formed an alliance to attack the Liao Kingdom, in the future, I only need to go to Jing Road, Zhong Jing Road and Tokyo I said, I will definitely return the Sixteen States of Yanyun to the State of Song. I heard that the weather in the south is very hot, and we Jurchens are not used to the climate there. They won't be as domineering as the Liao people."
