Chapter 35 Transactions and the Utopia
"Haha, Ninth Brother. There is a saying among the Han people. If you have been separated for three days, you should look at each other with admiration. This time, I missed my mistakes. I didn't expect that I had seen you for a year. I had such a skill to train people." By the side of the river, Tuohu rode a horse and walked with Ulutus one by one. Seeing the shimmering river surface shaking in the sun, Tuohu said with a hearty voice.
"The second brother has been awarded. The ninth brother has just learned some self-protection skills and cannot be used as a prescription." Ulutus said politely. Since the other party is willing to put down his airs and negotiate with him again, he will not be able to hold his identity anymore.
"I can admit all of your brother's fiefdom and herd slave. I can also let you down the line for the troops you killed this time. But the fire tubes you just used must be given one thousand." After a few silence, Tuohu decided not to spare the circle and offered his own conditions directly for Ulutus.
"Hahahaha... Is the second brother lying to me?" Wulutus was so angry that he laughed: "You killed my Muslim slave for no reason and were defeated by our troops behind. As the winner, I should submit the item to you. Moreover, the process of making the fire tube is complicated, and there are not a thousand pieces in our entire tribe. How can we give it to you?"
A blunt response quickly made the false smile on Tuohu's face disappear, and his tone also changed from gentleness to indifferent just now: "Aren't you afraid that I will flatten your tribe?"
This time, Tuohu came and brought two thousand cavalry. In terms of simple troops, it was more than twice that of Ulutus.
But fighting cannot be achieved by having too many people!
Wulutus was not afraid of the threat of the tyrant. Yun Danfeng said: "It happened that the fireworks had not been seen enough before. If my second brother was willing, I wouldn't mind another fireworks show." As he said, Wulutus said meaningfully: "I heard that the fireworks mixed with blood will be more charming and dazzling. Should the second brother accompany me to watch with me?"
Thinking of the scene where the fire tubes were fired at once, he couldn't help feeling powerless and fearful. If the distance was closer, he should be standing in Ulutus's prisoner of war camp now.
"Do you really think I dare not?" Tuohu refused to admit that he was afraid, and said with a harsh look on his face.
"The second brother is the most brave, so naturally he dares. But our brothers are killing each other here. The third brother's Kedun should hide in Heishan City and laugh. According to Chitai, he will probably applaud. There are also our Uncle Ochijin and Uncle Beligutai. They were unable to fight the west and were suffocating. They would definitely not miss this good show when we finish fighting. When we finish the battle, they will rob the fief." Ulutus's voice was gentle, and his smile showed a bit of brotherly affection. But what he said made Tuohu just want to tear his face.
"Hmph!" Tuohu was finally unable to destroy Ulutus' cavalry in one go, and he still kept his power unscathed. He snorted coldly to express his dissatisfaction.
"Second brother! Since we are brothers, I won't go around with you. Let's do this. I will sell you 100 fire tubes within three months. Then you can exchange cattle/sheep/pig iron and sheep slaves for exchange. How about it?" Ulutus said sincerely: "In the future, our two units will be together, and the caravans will not help but interact. The previous competition between cavalry was just a competition between brothers, and the losses were borne by each other."
This condition was a fairer handling opinion put forward by Ulutus based on the situation where both sides were evenly matched.
When Tuohu saw that Wulutus had a little more alert in his gentle smile, he also knew that this was Wulutus' bottom line.
After hesitating for a while, he said in a deep voice: "Two hundred fire tubes will be traded within half a year."
"Trade!" Ulutus couldn't say anything more, and agreed the next second.
Seeing the cunning flashing in Ulutus's eyes, Tuohu knew that he had been fooled. He couldn't help but feel a little regretful, but Ulutus couldn't wait to promote the reconciliation between the two sides, and in a very short time, he found two white war horses. In front of the two cavalrymen, he drank the horse's blood and formally reconciled.
It also represents that Tuohu officially recognized the strength of Ulutus as the successor of the Yegu tribe.
When Tuhu left with the cavalry, Ulutus realized that his back was soaked.
It was really the previous negotiations that tested psychological endurance and acting skills. If it hadn't been used to show the sharp incisive conditions of the Ulutus firearm from the beginning, I guess I would have fought hard with myself.
In that case, although Ulutus would not be completely defeated, it would not be so easy to win. For Ulutus, who had just completed the snake swallowing elephant, it would easily cause greed and bad intentions from other tribes.
Fortunately, Tuohu was finally "scared away". Although he had to pay 300 fire tubes, it was not for free. Moreover, Ulutus's fire tubes have begun to be upgraded, and at that time, the near fire tubes will be exported, which will also produce a considerable "foreign exchange" for the tribe.
From ancient times to the present, selling military equipment has been the most profitable deal.
When he went back, Ulutus met the Mu Nu who performed well on the court - Quan Xu.
Because of the loss of his parent-child, Quan Xu was in a very wrong state at this time. A bloody head hung around his neck, which was the Tuohu cavalry who had shot his child before. He was holding a long-dead child in his arms. The blood stained his dirty coat, dirty face and hands red.
But he seemed to have no idea, and only said in his mouth: "Don't be afraid of An'er! I'll avenge you for my father."
"Press him!" Ulutus ordered. Without any resistance, Quan Xu let others hold his shoulders like a walking corpse. It was not until someone touched his child that he was crazy, biting with his mouth, grabbing with his hands, and kicking with his feet, struggling extremely fiercely.
Some cavalry did not suppress him and were kicked to the ground by him.
But after all, he was outnumbered, and soon he was pressed to the ground and roared in his mouth, like a beast who had completely lost his mind.
Ulutus ignored him and only asked someone to dig a hole aside. Then he lit the fire and burned the child's body to ashes.
During this period, Quan Xu's eyes turned red, from cursing to begging for mercy, and finally watching the child's body disappear in the fire, he could only cry shrillly.
"Your child is dead! If you still want to take revenge and change the damn world, then you can bury him with your own hands. I will wait for you outside the wall for an hour. If you don't come, don't go back to my king's tribe." After saying that, Ulutus did not stop, and quickly crossed the river with all the cavalry and soon disappeared into the bleak wall.
About an hour later, Abatu said hesitantly: "Prince! The time is here!"
"Oh! Have you arrived?" Ulutus looked at the gap at the border. There was nothing else there except a few weeds swaying in the wind.
"Can't you let go?" Ulutus said to himself with some regret.
Abatu didn't know why his prince valued a mad slave so much, and couldn't help but say suspiciously: "Prince, is there anything extraordinary about that madman?"
"Haha-of course!" Wulutus smiled a little lost and said, "If he can let go of his worries, his future achievements will be limitless. If I can get his help, I will be more sure of what I plan."
"The prince's plan must be very big. It's a pity that his subordinates are too stupid to be the prince's arm." Abatu said in a depressed tone.
"You don't have to underestimate yourself anymore. He is different from you, just like cows and sheep, and is not comparable." Ulutus recalled the opponent's determination to fight against the Tuhu cavalry, and finally said regretfully: "Let's go! The time is here. There is no fate. There is no need to force it."
But just as soon as Ulutus set off, Abatu suddenly shouted loudly: "He-he has caught up with him."
When Ulutus looked back, he saw a man with only rags wrapped around his waist running over. The other party's hair had been shaved, but it was very untidy because of his own actions. In addition, his beard was shaved, and it felt like they were completely different from what he had seen before.
There were dozens of scars on the front and back of the body, almost all of which were the sequelae of whipping.
"Prince, I am willing to follow you, but I want to know what kind of scene the world the prince talks about?"
"Everyone has clothes and everyone has food to eat. Everyone can choose the way they like to live. As long as they do not violate the law agreed by everyone, no one can interfere with the choices of others, nor can anyone interfere with the lives of others.
Whether it is Mongolians/Hans, Hui Huis or Jurchens, there will be no tribal disputes. Mongolians can marry Han people as their wives, and Han people can also marry Mongolians as their wives. No matter their status is high and low, they can marry freely.
In spring, summer, autumn and winter, no matter whether it is flood or drought, no matter whether it is cold winter or hot summer, no one will die due to natural disasters or end up in man-made disasters…”.
At this moment, not only Quan Xu was confused, but everyone present was a little confused. Because they could not imagine that there would be such a heavenly existence in the world.
"The prince thinks, does such a world really exist?" Quan Xu came back to his senses and asked with a solemn expression.
"It's up to man! As long as I live, I will always be close to such a world!" Ulutus also knew that it was not easy to realize his ideal country, so he didn't say anything.
