Fortunate Young Gentleman

Chapter 917 Shan Huan's Request

Shan Huan State originally had 27 households and a population of 145, of which 47 were able to fight.

After suffering such a disaster, there were only fifty-three people left in Shan Huan Kingdom, and only eleven Ding Zhuang people were left.

Tang Ning's ears were filled with the wailing sounds of women and children, and the faces of the remaining Shan Huan people were filled with sadness and confusion.

The Western Region is becoming more and more chaotic, and the big countries have too much time to take care of themselves. As a result, the horse thieves in the Western Region have become more courageous, and they have begun to take action against small countries like Shan Huan.

Although these benefactors helped them kill the horse thieves, the king and several ministers had already died in the hands of the horse thieves, and Shan Huan was left with only the fifty old, weak, sick and disabled.

However, it is impossible to kill all the horse thieves in the Western Regions. Once they are all killed, countless more will come out.

Those of them who were lucky enough to escape one calamity were not lucky enough to escape the second or third calamity.

The corpses of dozens of horse thieves were arranged in several rows. Except for those killed by Old Zheng, who later tried to escape, the dozens of people who were stopped by several elders also died in the end.

They all died at the hands of the angry Shanhuan people.

Tang Ning did not stop him. Horse thieves were a cancer in the desert. Their hands were stained with countless blood, and countless caravans traveling to and from the Western Region were slaughtered by them. These people only saw killing and looting, and they had lost the most basic humanity.

However, the horse thieves died, and the Shanhuan people who died tragically in their hands could no longer survive. The remaining Shanhuan people could only save the last bit of Shanhuan's blood by seeking refuge with a more powerful country, or by going to Chen Guo'an's home in the pass. .

Tangning originally came here to replenish food and water, but she didn't expect to encounter such a thing, and she didn't know what to do at this moment.

The corpses of dozens of horse thieves were placed there. Tang Yaoyao and Xiao Xiao's faces were horribly pale. Tang Ning asked Sand Scorpion and others to burn them. In this climate, so many people died and the corpses could not be disposed of. Well, it was a great plague that spread throughout the Western Region.

The remaining Shanhuan people also burned the bodies of their dead relatives, letting their ashes blend with the yellow sand of the desert.

There was an oasis after Shan Huan Kingdom. With something like this happening in Shan Huan Kingdom, Bahar could no longer negotiate with them about buying food. After replenishing the water source, he walked up to Tang Ning and said, "Sir, , we still have enough food to last for a while, how about we wait until we go to the next city to exchange for food..."

Tangning didn't want to ruin the sad atmosphere of Shanhuan people, so she nodded and said, "Let's go."

The group of people got on the camels and had not gone far when they suddenly heard rapid footsteps behind them.

An old man walked forward quickly and knelt in front of Tang Ning's camel. He was holding something in his hands and saying something loudly. The object was square and square and looked like it was made of jade, but Tang Ning couldn't understand what the old man said or what he wanted to do.

He looked at Bahar and asked, "What is he talking about?"

Bahar looked at the old man in shock, licked his dry lips, looked at Tangning, and said, "He, he wants to ask the young master to be Shan Huan's king..."

Tang Ning was a little surprised. She glanced at the old man and said in surprise, "But I am a Han."

Bahar's face showed joy and he said hurriedly: "He said that the young master saved the Shan Huan Kingdom and was the king sent to them by the gods..."

Tang Ning shook his head. The reason why he asked Lao Zheng to take action was because he couldn't stand the behavior of those horse thieves. No one with a clear conscience would resist death if they saw such a situation.

He has no interest in being the king of dozens of people in the desert.

He jumped off the camel and said to Bahar: "Tell him that I will not be their king."

The old man of Shan Huan Kingdom asked Tang Ning to be the leader of Shan Huan Kingdom, which surprised Bahar. What he didn't expect was that Tang Ning actually refused.

Shocked, he did not dare to disobey Tangning's order and translated his words to the old man.

When the old man heard this, his expression changed drastically. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Tang Ning.

The rest of the people of Shan Huan Kingdom also rushed over, kneeling behind the old man and kowtowing constantly. Several people's foreheads were scratched by hard sand and stones, and traces of blood oozed out.

This made Tangning a little confused. She looked at Bahar and said, "Let them get up first."

Lao Zheng walked to him and said, "As soon as we leave, if they stay here, they will be killed by the new horse thieves sooner or later."

Tang Ning had actually thought about this problem. Shan Huanguo was too weak, and now there were only a bunch of old, weak, sick and disabled people left. He couldn't hold on to this oasis. If they stayed here, the only thing waiting for them would really be The country was destroyed.

In fact, the best way is for them to move to the pass. Although Shan Huan is small, it is still a country. It is a country recognized by the countries in the Western Regions and the Chen State. As long as they hold the seal of the country's leader and ask for help from the Chen State, they can In the spirit of humanitarianism, the Chen State court would definitely carve out a place for them to live in and ensure that their entire family would have no worries about food and clothing. However, in that case, Shanhuan State in the Western Regions would exist in name only.

Tangning looked at Bahar and said, "It's impossible for me to be their king. Ask them if they have anywhere else to go."

After Bahar conveyed Tangning's words to the old man, the old man showed a disappointed expression. Now the situation in the Western Region has changed drastically. Even horse thieves dare to take action against small countries like them. If they cannot find a strong man in the shortest time, With his protection, Shan Huanguo will definitely disappear completely in the long yellow sand of the desert.

Although there is no precedent for a Han to be the king of a country in the Western Regions, how could he choose this path if the country had not come to a time of life and death.

However, even if he made up his mind, he was still rejected by others.

Although Shan Huan has only about fifty people, it is also a country in the Western Regions recognized by other countries. With the leader's seal, he can recruit his own troops in the Western Regions and annex other countries... But it is okay without the leader's seal. Anyone who does this kind of thing can only be called a horse thief.

He sighed in his heart and said a few words to Bahar.

Bahar sighed, looked at Tangning with some regret, and said, "Master, he said that Shan Huan has good relations with the Wutanzi country and wants us to send them to the Wutanzi country, and the Wutanzi country will take them in. They will also pay us something."

He still had some regrets. If Tang Ning could accept Shan Huan's seal as king, then he would be one of the thirty-six kings in the Western Region. Many countries in the Western Region had already been annexed, and his ranking could be higher. With his financial resources and strength, he will soon become a big country in the Western Region and dominate one area...

The purpose of Tangning's trip was Xiaowan, and she didn't want to delay her journey on the road, but if she let them go, the dozens of lives she had just saved wouldn't last long.

Tangning looked at Bahar and asked, "Where is the Wutanzi Kingdom? Is it far away?"

"Not far." Bahar said quickly: "Wucanzi Kingdom is adjacent to Shanhuan, just a few dozen miles west of Shanhuan, just on our route, and the villain originally planned to go there to replenish food... "

Tangning nodded and said, "In that case, let's stay here for one day."

It was already getting late at this time, and the remaining Shanhuan people needed time to pack their things. Tangning and others also needed to camp and rest.

Shan Huanguo is next to the oasis. Camping in the oasis tonight will be much more comfortable than in the desert.

During this period, the old man Shan Huanguo invited them to live in their room, but Tang Ning politely refused.

What happened to Shan Huan during the day, Tang Ning didn't want to cause any more trouble for them. Besides, the desert at night was a bit colder. Lying on the ground and watching the twinkling stars in the sky was also a different kind of enjoyment.

After what happened today, Sha Xie and others seemed to be working harder when setting up their tents. Tangning walked up to Bahar and asked, "What kind of country is Wu Tan Zi?"

Bahar hurriedly introduced: "Hui Gongzi, Wutanzi's country is stronger than Shanhuan. There are more than fifty households, more than 300 people, and more than 80 victorious soldiers..."
