Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 406 Intimidation

In the tooth tent, Pang Yu was talking eloquently: "Shao is the king, if you kill me, my Da Chu will turn to cooperate with the Wuliu tribe, and my Da Chu cavalry will join forces with the Wuliu army. The army will come to Xiaojinchuan in at most two days, and then the Shaodang tribe will wait to meet the wrath of my big Chu cavalry."

King Shaodang looked gloomy and said angrily, "Are you threatening me?"

"It's not a threat." Pang Yu waved his hand and said, "It's just stating the facts."

King Shaodang said grimly: "You Chu Kingdom is at war with a big man, and you can't spare many soldiers and horses. Besides, the Wuliu tribe will never work together with you."

Pang Yu smiled lightly, and said: "My Great Chu is indeed at war with Han, and most of the country's troops have indeed been transferred to the Jingxiang battlefield, but it is not a problem to mobilize [-] to [-] troops. If you don’t believe me, you can send someone to Mengshan City to inquire about it, and the eight thousand elite cavalry of General Yinxiang Hou Pangyu of my Great Chu are stationed there.”

This time, Pang Yu did not reveal his identity when he was sent to the Xiaojinchuan Shaodang tribe for self-protection.

After a pause, Pang Yu said again: "As for whether the Wuliu tribe will join forces with Da Chu, there is no need for the king to worry."

"Eight thousand cavalry?" King Shaodang was secretly surprised. Mengshan is less than two hundred miles away from Xiaojinchuan, and he can arrive there in a day and night on a fast horse. , "There are more than [-] cavalry in the more than [-] Qiangdi tribes in Jinchuan, big and small. How dare a mere [-] cavalry come to die?"

Pang Yu smiled when he heard the words, shook his head and said, "Why does Your Majesty use big words to scare people?"

King Shaodang said angrily: "Emissary Chu, what do you mean? Why did this king scare you?"

Pang Yu shook his head, and said, "The big and small Jinchuan might have [-] cavalry, but can you burn the order of the king? Now the Yuanjian tribe is fighting with the Wuge tribe, and the Wuliu tribe will never die because of the death of Prince Wu Fenglan." Join forces with your Shaodang tribe, once the Chu army invades the border, all you can gather will be only eight or nine thousand soldiers from the Shaodang tribe, am I right?"

King Shaodang remained silent, and what the envoy of Chu said was the truth. Once the Chu army invaded the border, he might not even be able to gather eight or nine thousand cavalry, because the herdsmen of the Shaodang tribe were nomadic in the vast Xiaojinchuan River Valley. It takes time to gather troops, but the cavalry of the Chu army can kill him in a day and night.

Seeing that King Shaodang was silent, Pang Yu said again: "However, you still have a way to go."

"Is there another way?" King Shaodang said with a smile, "Do you want me to be the lackey of your Chu country?"

Pang Yu shook his head with a smile and said: "My lord, you are wrong. Da Chu doesn't need to burn the tribe to be a running dog. Da Chu only needs a firm and loyal ally. If the king agrees to form an alliance with Da Chu, I, Da Chu, can do my best. Help you unify the entire Jinchuan River Valley and make you the real king of Qiangdi!"

The real king of Qiangdi?Burning Dawang's eyes lit up instantly.

Compared with other Qiangdifan kings, Shao's ambition to become a king is not great, but if he really has the opportunity to become the king of Qiangdi, he will definitely not refuse it. Is there any man in the world who can refuse the temptation of hegemony ?If it is really possible to rule the entire Jinchuan Valley with more than 20 Qiang people, Shaodang will wake up laughing at night if he dreams of it.

At that moment, King Shao's tone changed a little, and he said anxiously, "Is this really true?"

Pang Yu said: "Although I am just an envoy, I can completely represent the entire Great Chu. Of course, whether you believe it or not is entirely up to the King. If the King is not willing to cooperate, we can still choose Wu to stay in the tribe." Said, "If I guess correctly, King Wuliu should be very happy to cooperate with Da Chu."

"Yes, yes." King Shaodang hurriedly said, "This king is willing to cooperate."

At this moment, Shao, who usually prides himself on being a wise king, can't calm down anymore. In fact, there are not many options for him to choose. There was a complete break between the courts. If he didn't want to bear the wrath of the Han court alone, he could only cooperate with the state of Chu.

What's more, Chu State can also help him unify the entire Jinchuan, and Shaodang can't refuse.

At that moment, the great king Shaodang said again: "However, Your Majesty, can you send another batch of weapons and armor?"

"No problem." Pang Yu said calmly, "I can go back and report to General Pang, and ask him to send you five hundred ring-shoulders and five hundred sets of armor." Yes, right now the Yuanjian tribe is fighting with the Wuge tribe, it is a great opportunity to destroy the Wuliu tribe, two days later the two tribes will send troops, how about it?"

"Okay, okay, no problem." King Shaodang agreed with all his heart.

"That's all right, we're done talking about business." Pang Yu smiled, "Next, shouldn't we continue with the bonfire party? The girls and boys outside are probably already waiting impatiently."

King Shaodang nodded repeatedly and said: "It should be like this, ha ha."

Two days later, Pang Yu came to Xiaojinchuan again and brought five thousand cavalry.

Looking at the majestic Pang Yu in military uniform under the big banner of the Chu army, he couldn't help being stunned. He never thought that the so-called envoy of Chu turned out to be Pang Yu, the Marquis of Yin Township of Great Chu. Pang Yu dismounted from his horse and bowed with a smile. : "Shao is the king, why don't old friends welcome each other when they meet?"

King Shaodang woke up like a dream, and quickly opened his arms to greet Pang Yu and hugged him.

Pang Zheng, who had been standing behind King Shaodang, came forward to greet him. Two days ago, he married Yueyingsha and stayed in the royal court of the Shaodang tribe. He did not return to Mount Meng with Pang Yu. Niao Tingting stepped forward to greet Pang Yu, and Pang Yu also gave Yueyingsha a gold bracelet according to the etiquette of the Central Plains.

After the greetings, King Shaodang led Pang Yu into the tooth tent again.

After the guests and hosts were seated, Pang Yu asked, "The King Shao, have all the people and horses gathered?"

King Shaodang hurriedly said: "Don't worry, general, this king has summoned [-] Shaodang warriors, and [-] warriors from several small tribes around, plus [-] fine cavalry from Dachu, the Wuliu tribe has been wiped out." More than enough!"

"Very good." Pang Yu nodded happily, and said, "If that's the case, let's dispatch troops quickly."

Shao Dang Dawang said: "The warriors of Chu are tired from afar, should we rest for a whole day and send troops tomorrow?"

"No need." Pang Yu waved his hand and said in a loud voice, "The military situation is urgent, and there may be changes later, it is better to send troops sooner."

"Alright." King Shaodang nodded, and immediately raised his head and shouted, "Come here, bring up the offerings, and prepare to sacrifice to the gods..."

In the lower reaches of Dajinchuan, Wuliu Dawang Yazhang.

King Shaodang is calling for a cavalry team. Such a big movement can never be hidden from the nearby tribes. King Wuliu has also heard the news, and after comprehensive information from all parties, King Wuliu quickly came to the conclusion that Shaodang has probably been captured. The Chu people bought it, and it seemed that they were going to take advantage of the melee between Yuan Jian and Wu Ge to keep their hands on Wu.

This made King Wuliu furious. When did the Wuliu tribe become fish on other people's chopping boards?

A Wuliu warrior hurried into the tooth tent, knelt down and reported: "Your Majesty, the Shaodang army is coming!"

"Shaodang!" King Wuliu got up abruptly, and said with a grim expression on his face, "You are so damn capable. Instead of guarding your little Jinchuan to live a peaceful life, you dare to run wild on this king's land. I just don't know how to live or die!"

A tribal leader reminded: "My lord, the burning army has the Chu army as its backing, so don't underestimate the enemy."

"What about the Chu army?" King Wuliu said coldly, "I have already promised the Han envoys that I will send troops to Bashu in a few days. I don't want the Chu army to come to the door by itself. This will save trouble, and it will be resolved together!" After a pause, King Wuliu yelled again, "Blow the trumpet to gather troops, gather the whole family, and prepare to meet the enemy..."

After saying that, King Wuliu strode out of the tent.

In fact, why doesn't King Wuliu know the disparity in strength between the two sides?However, he had no choice. The clansmen could migrate, but the pastures could not be taken away. For the Qiangdi tribe, who live by water and grass, pastures are their foundation. The reason why the Wuliu tribe is one of the four major tribes in the Jinchuan River Valley is that It is because it occupies the lush water and grassland in the lower reaches of Dajinchuan.

Once this piece of water and grassland is lost, the Wuliu tribe will soon decline, so the Wuliu tribe must defend this piece of water and grassland at all costs.

In the early summer, the Dajinchuan Valley is quiet.

An eagle spread its wings and was circling high in the sky. Through its sharp eyes, the eagle had already locked onto a hare on the ground. delicious meal.

All of a sudden, the eagle in the sky withdrew its huge wings and swooped down on the hare in the grass like lightning.

However, at this moment, the originally calm ground suddenly began to tremble slightly. The hare, which was concentrating on gnawing grass roots, was suddenly frightened. It first raised its long ears to listen for a moment, and then rushed into the nearby Disappeared in a burrow.

"Hoo..." The eagle flew into the air, and immediately let out an extremely unwilling scream.

The trembling of the ground became more and more intense, and there was a faint sound of thunder rolling from the sky. The eagle vibrated its wings and flew up to the sky again, and then looked down from a high position, only to find that a black ocean had appeared in the north of the valley, and It is rapidly sweeping down from north to south...

Cavalry, that's cavalry!
Thousands of cavalry gathered into a vast ocean, rushing down the empty river valley, with their horses' heads moving and their iron hooves churning, even an eagle high in the sky could clearly feel that thousands of cavalry When an iron hoof hits the ground, it makes a strong and violent tremor.

"Boom..." The cavalry surged down.

Ahead, not far away, is the royal court of the Wuliu tribe.
