Chapter 142 Exchange
The Xianbei envoy came here on order, but his attitude annoyed Huo Yu, and he failed to ask to see Huo Yu for the next few days.So in desperation, he found the Murong tribe who moved to Liaodong again, hoping to be able to match them.But with the previous experience, how dare Patriarch Murong do it again, the prefect knew the purpose of coming before he even opened his mouth, this ability is scary to think about.

Now that the whole family has arrived around Xiangping City, the prefect arranged for them to send food and grass, and taught them how to keep warm. All this made Patriarch Murong determined not to meet Helian's envoy, and he followed Huo Yu wholeheartedly.At this time, the Xianbei envoy suddenly felt remorse, and before coming, he told Lian Qian to lower his posture. After going back like this, he would definitely bear Helian's anger. Thinking of this, the Xianbei envoy broke out in cold sweat.

Three days later, the Xianbei envoy who was still asleep was woken up.Just when he was about to get angry, he found that the villain in the prefect's mansion was in front of him. He lost all sleepiness, his anger dissipated, and instead he had a smile on his face.

When seeing Huo Yu again, the Xianbei envoy Yanran looked submissive.Looking at the person in front of him, Huo Yu couldn't help laughing, so he said: "It goes without saying that Chenglugui is important to the eastern Xianbei. Without a suitable price, I would rather let him be a slave."

There was a certain threat in Huo Yu's words, and Xianbei was the one in a hurry, so Huo Yu had enough room to bargain.

"I don't know how the prefect hopes to redeem Cheng Lugui?" The messenger said with a smile in broken Chinese.

Huo Yu smiled and said: "The leader of one party is worth a hundred thousand cattle and sheep!"

"This, my lord, the number is too large. I am willing to give [-] head of cattle and [-] horses!"

"The envoy came from the same way, wouldn't it be better to rest for a few days?"

"Twenty thousand cattle and sheep, ten thousand war horses!" the envoy gritted his teeth and said.

"Okay, I'll let Cheng Lu return to build the road!"

"Absolutely not, it's easy to discuss, easy to discuss!" The envoy said hurriedly at this moment.

Huo Yu sat on the head and didn't speak, but kept flipping through the bamboo slips on the table.Seeing this, the Xianbei envoy spoke again: "Master Taishou, [-] cattle and sheep, [-] horses! This is our bottom line!"

"The prefect has seen Xianbei's sincerity. Well, how about it, [-] cattle and sheep, and [-] war horses, remember that they are war horses."

"Thank you, Prefect!"

"Don't worry, the prefect hasn't finished yet." After speaking, Huo Yu pulled out a list of prisoners written in Xianbei and threw it out.

"There are five thousand Xianbei captives' names and tribes on this brocade. The prefect wants their families, young and old!" Huo Yu said with a smile.

The envoy, who was originally in a state of excitement, was suddenly poured with a basin of cold water, leaned over to pick up the brocade, roughly swept it away, and fell into deep thought.After a long time, he opened his mouth again and said, "It's not difficult, it's just that my lord can let me take Chenglu back first!"

"Hahaha, that won't work! The cattle, sheep, horses, and family members will be delivered together, and the prefect will be released into Cheng Lugui. I will give you one month, and this transaction will be voided after one month!"

Looking at Huo Yu's leaving back, the Xianbei envoy shook his head. Fortunately, he had completed the task, but these extra family members counted more than [-] people, and they were all small tribes. It shouldn't be difficult to think about it!The Xianbei envoy left Xiangping City with a satisfactory result, while Huo Yu was thinking about the [-] captured Xianbei captives and the [-] combat power of the Murong tribe, it should not be difficult to take back Xuantu County.

Spring plowing is approaching, Liu Chong and Cai Yong's itinerary has been set, and the time for parting is getting closer. Although Cai Yan spends the whole day with his father with a smile on his face, he is unhappy in his heart.For this reason, Huo Yu spent the past few days and nights in his room, trying various tricks to make Cai Yan happy.On this day, Huo Yu, who just got up, was told by the maid that Liu Chong and Mrs. Wu wanted to discuss.

"Zhao Ji goes to eat by herself, there is no need to wait for her husband!" Huo Yu said, reaching out to touch Cai Yan's cheek and leaving with a smile.

When he came to his parents' residence, Huo Yu saw Wu's face washed with tears, and hurried forward to salute.

"Yu'er, as you said, it is extremely dangerous to go to the capital. As a father, I left your mother in Liaodong. When I met His Majesty, I said that the relapse of the old illness made it difficult to travel far. I think His Majesty will not blame you!" Liu Chong waited for Huo Yu to see her. After the ceremony, he said slowly.

"Father, please rest assured. Mother will be taken care of by Hai'er and others!" After a pause, Huo Yu said to Mrs. Wu: "Mother, please rest assured. Haier in Luoyang will definitely send someone to make arrangements for emergencies."

"It's so good, mother can feel relieved!" Seeing that Huo Yu was confident, she wiped away her tears and said.

Parting is always painful. In order to protect the safety of the elders, Huo Yu dispatched Zhao Yun and Zhang Jai, who had just joined the army, to lead Fei Yuqi all the way to Ji County.When he gets there, he will go to Beijing with Liu Yu. Before the end of the year, His Majesty will send Liu Yu to Beijing to face the saint.

Before leaving, Liu Chong said to Huo Yu that after the beginning of spring, there will be another group of immigrants from Chen Guo, and the leader of the team is also a young talent from Chen Guo, so Huo Yu can make arrangements.Huo Yu racked his brains for the person Liu Chong was talking about, but he couldn't think of who it was, which also made Huo Yu look forward to him.

In the spring of 186 A.D., Huo Yu ordered Zhao Yun and Zhang Jai to lead more than a thousand flying feather cavalry to escort Liu Chong and Cai Yong to Beijing to take office. Huo Yu's personal guard Liao Hua happened to be more in this group. Although everyone was puzzled, they also asked more questions. .Since following Huo Yu's side, Liao Hua has always acted mysteriously, and he never said much, and the Tianyu Guard is in his hands. Therefore, the generals in the army did not dare to despise the young Liao Hua.

In Danhan Mountain and Lianzhang, the Xianbei envoy had been back for several days, and He Lian was undecided about asking Tan Shihuai again, but Tan Shihuai was hardly awake.After weighing again and again, He Lian agreed to all Huo Yu's requests, and began to actively search for the family members who were captured first on the list.

It can be said that the strong man of Tanshihuai broke his wrist decisively, and it was a last resort.However, what Helian did this time caused quite a stir among the Xianbei people.Although everyone didn't dare to say anything publicly, they said a lot in secret, which had a great impact on Helian's prestige in the future.

The last day of redemption into Lugui is gradually approaching. At this moment, all parts of Liaodong are indeed busy, plowing fields, building cities, and roads. There are many Xianbei captives.After these days of brainwashing, the Xianbei people were still divided into two groups by Huo Yu. Those who could be used were arranged to be trained in the barracks for unified training, striving to become an army as soon as possible, and those who could not be used could only be done as coolies.

Because Ma Jun and others in the artisan workshop produced the primary version of cement under the prompt of Huo Yu, the speed of construction in various parts of Liaodong was astonishing.When everyone was busy, the Xianbei army appeared as a warning, causing confusion among the people.Fortunately, the prefect's mansion was appeased in time, and the army did not respond to the appearance of such a large number of Xianbei people, and the common people felt different.
