Qin Xiao said it very sincerely, but Tage didn't understand it and said doubtfully: "I don't understand."
"What does Tagg think the origins of those two people are?"
Tag did not hesitate: "People from the Liaodong Army. Zhen Yutan identified them in public. They are officials of the Liaodong Army. One of them is named Liu Shutong."
"Yes, they must be members of the Liaodong Army, otherwise Zhen Yuchui would not treat them like honored guests." Qin Xiao struggled for a moment and said: "Tage, it feels a little uncomfortable to be tied up. Can you untie the rope first?
Let’s sit down, drink and talk.”
Tag shook his head and said, "No!"
Qin Xiao sighed and could only say: "If Tag uses torture to extract a confession, those two guys will definitely not be able to hold on, at least their identities will definitely be confessed. But having Tag try out their identities is far inferior to
It would be useful for Zhen Yutan to testify about their identities."
Tag was thoughtful, and Qin Xiao continued: "If we find out Liu Shutong's identity, or even find out from them the fact that he and Zhen Yuchui were in cahoots, what will Tag do next?"
"Conspiracy to kill Abhikar and ambushing me halfway are both capital crimes." Tag said with hatred: "Many of my Eagle Guards were killed, and this revenge must be avenged."
Qin Xiaodao: "Yes, if Tag uses Liu Shutong as a witness to testify against Zhen Yuchui, Zhen Yuchui will certainly not end well, and the people of the tribe will definitely let Tag kill Liu Shutong and avenge Abhikar. Tag doesn't want to
Even if you kill them, you won't be able to kill them." His expression became grim, and he asked softly: "Tage, if you personally order the killing of officials of the Liaodong Army, what will be the result?"
Tag was startled and his eyebrows furrowed.
"The Liaodong Army is the local emperor of the four northeastern counties. It has always been aloof in front of the surrounding tribes." Qin Xiao said slowly: "The Tang court may not care that Tag executed the Liaodong Army officials in public, but the Liaodong Army would not
Can you turn a blind eye? Killing their people is like slapping them in the face. In their eyes, being slapped in the face by the True Feathers is unacceptable. Even if they do not send troops immediately, from now on, the True Feathers will definitely fight with Liaodong.
The army formed a deadly feud."
Tag lowered his head, his pretty face stern.
"Now the Zhenyu tribe is surrounded by strong enemies. If we are to enmity with the Liaodong Army again, will your tribe be able to cope with it given its current situation?" Qin Xiao sighed: "The north of your tribe is surrounded by Hegu people, and the northeast is Buliuda.
, there is also the jackal-like Durhu Tiehan in the west. Each of these tribes is staring at the Zhenyu Grassland. If the Liaodong Army gets involved again, Tage will be surrounded by enemies on all sides. The situation is extremely dangerous for your tribe. Kill two Liaodong officials and
It’s not difficult, but I’m afraid it will be difficult for your department to bear the consequences caused by this.”
Tagg sighed and said, "You are right."
"If Tage doesn't interrogate them, it means he doesn't know their identities." Qin Xiaodao: "In this way, the tribesmen will not force Tage to execute them. Although Zhen Yutan testified that they were members of the Liaodong Army,
But as long as Liu Shutong was not threatened by death, he would not dare to admit that he was sent by the Liaodong Army even if he was beaten to death. After all, it is a big taboo for the Liaodong Army to send people to get involved in tribal affairs, which will make the surrounding tribes
The Liaodong Army was wary and even resentful, so Liu Shutong did not dare to admit that he was from the Liaodong Army, and the Liaodong Army would not admit that Liu Shutong was sent by them."
Tag sneered: "The Liaodong Army is treacherous and shameless."
"Tage knows in his heart that all this is instigated by the Liaodong Army. Be more careful with them in the future." Qin Xiao said: "Tolerance does not mean cowardice. It is not yet time to break up with the Liaodong Army, so Tage
He was patient for a while, and executing Liu Shutong was not his purpose. As long as he could let the tribe know that there was an outsider who wanted to interfere with the tribe's succession, the Liaodong Army colluded with Zhen Yu Chui to achieve his goal. After today, even if Zhen Yu is not punished,
Yu Chui is convicted, but the people in the tribe are not fools, and they all know what is going on. I believe that the Tutun elders who supported Zhen Yu Chui before have probably changed their minds now."
Tag nodded slightly and said: "Judging from their reactions, it is indeed the case. The Liaodong Army once betrayed its faith and caused us heavy losses. Everyone in the tribe hated the Liaodong Army. Now everyone knows that Zhen Yuchui actually colluded with the treacherous Liaodong Army.
, naturally I will no longer support him."
"So for Tage, Liu Shutong has fulfilled his role, and it really doesn't matter how he is executed." Qin Xiao smiled lightly and said: "If I were Tage, I would send someone to escort Liu Shutong to Liaoyang and kill the two of them.
Hand it over to the Liaodong Army, and say that someone has testified that they are members of the Liaodong Army, but we can't be sure, so we want to ask the Liaodong Army to identify them. The Liaodong Army will definitely not dare to admit it, but they will not let Liu Shutong be brought back by you.
If they want to keep Liu Shutong, Tage can naturally put forward some conditions, even if they exchange for some food. Now is not the time to kill him. In this case, it would be better to return them to the Liaodong Army in exchange for some benefits.
actual."
Tag was thoughtful, silent for a long time, and then said: "What you said makes sense."
"Thank you Tag for the compliment." Qin Xiao said with a smile: "Although Tag will suffer some injustice by doing this, it at least gives the Liaodong Army face, and they will not become enemies with the Liaodong Army, and they can't find an excuse.
Attack your headquarters. In this way, Zhenyu Grassland can at least avoid the threat from the south and be free to deal with other enemies."
Tag stared into Qin Xiao's eyes and said, "I didn't expect you to be so smart."
"Tage, does this count as atonement for my sins?" Qin Xiao struggled to get back on his feet and said, "I gave advice to Tage to avoid many enemies in your department, and it is considered a meritorious service. Can Tage spare me for this?
once?"
Tag snorted coldly, thought for a moment, and then said: "You have committed a heinous crime and cannot be easily forgiven." His beautiful eyes rolled, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and he said: "Originally, I wanted to cut out your tongue and chop it off.
Your hands, and... hum, but for the sake of your advice, I can give you a chance to atone for your sins, do you want it?"
"Yes!" Qin Xiao said immediately: "What does Tag want me to do?"
"Follow me!"
Qin Xiao was startled and said in surprise: "Tage, do you want to recruit me as your consort? Isn't this inappropriate? We have known each other not long ago, and I am still from Tang Dynasty. You...
!”
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Tag rolled his eyes at him and said angrily: "Who wants to recruit you to be the consort? You don't even look at yourself in the mirror. How do you qualify to be the consort?"
Qin Xiao said with a smile: "I was shocked. I thought Tag wanted me to spend the rest of my life making up for the mistakes I made."
His smile only made Tagg even more angry. He stepped forward, kicked Qin Xiao in the leg, and said angrily: "Why are you happy? Is it... Could it be that it's painful for you to be a prince-in-law?"
What happened? You are not allowed to be the consort, but you are so happy?"
"Can't Tagg see that I'm smiling in disappointment?" Qin Xiao shook his head and sighed: "My smile is just to cover up my embarrassment."
Seeing his appearance, Tag couldn't help laughing out loud, but he immediately realized that he had lost his composure, so he lowered his face and said, "You people from the Tang Dynasty never speak the same words in your words as in your heart."
"Actually, I'm very disappointed." Qin Xiao looked at Tag's big eyes and said, "I can't be a prince-in-law, and I don't know which man will be so lucky to marry a beautiful girl like Tag. Tag is not only beautiful.
She is as beautiful as a flower, and she is smart and brave. If I had known that I would meet a beautiful girl like Tag in this life, I should have done more good deeds and accumulated more virtues in my previous life. Maybe I could really become a prince consort in this life."
Although Tage had a stern face, Qin Xiao's words made her feel happy.
Although she was born noble and has been respected by everyone in the tribe since she was a child, but because of this, almost everyone is cautious about what they say and do in front of her, for fear of saying the wrong thing.
Although Tag is recognized as the most beautiful woman in Modong, no one dares to directly praise her beauty in front of Tag, let alone the courage to say what Qin Xiao said.
But Tag is a girl's family after all, and women's love for beauty is natural. They are naturally happy when others praise their beauty. However, Qin Xiao's praise was very direct, and he even expressed his disappointment that he did not have the chance to marry a beautiful woman like Tag.
How could Tage be unhappy?
"Then you did too many bad things in your previous life." Tagg looked gentle, with a smile on his brows, and finally said: "If I don't tell you these nonsense, I ask you, will you agree to give you a chance to forgive me?
"
Qin Xiaodao: "I agreed. Tag, what do you mean by asking me to follow you? You won't let me be your little follower, right?"
"I have ordered that troops and horses from each account must be mobilized at the foot of Wuyan Mountain within four days." Tager looked serious: "You may not know that Wuluolan Pasture is at the foot of Luozhi Mountain, and Luozhi Mountain is
An important mountain range in the northern part of our Zhenyu Grassland controls Luozhi Mountain, which overlooks the entire Uluolan Grassland and can prevent the Hegu people from attacking from the north. Once the Hegu people take away Luozhi Mountain, we will lose
Without a line of defense in the north, the Hegu people can attack the Zhenyu Grassland at any time. The Hegu tribe has always coveted Luozhi Mountain, and even captured Luozhi Mountain decades ago, putting the Zhenyu Grassland under constant threat. Later, we sacrificed countless lives
It took the lives of the warriors to recapture Luozhi Mountain, and the Uluolan tribe was allowed to guard Luozhi Mountain, and fortifications were also built on the mountain. After several attacks by the Hegu tribe, Luozhi Mountain was able to support the arrival of reinforcements, and the Hegu people also
Losing troops and destroying generals, so in recent years, Hegu people no longer dare to act rashly."
Qin Xiaowei nodded and said: "I understand that losing a strategic location will have very serious consequences."
"Yes." Tag said: "Father Khan passed away, He Guren has received the news, and also knows that Khan's position has not been decided for a long time. Now the Zhenyu tribe is leaderless. Coupled with this heavy snowstorm, I believe that the
Tan Nuyun will never let go of such an opportunity. They have already assembled a large army. No matter whether they succeed or not, they will try to attack Luozhi Mountain and seize it. This time, Zhen Yuchui abandoned his official career for personal reasons and has not yet assembled it.
The soldiers and horses are preparing to defend. Once Luozhi Mountain is attacked, our support will definitely not arrive in time. Even if Luozhi Mountain is captured by them, we will use all our strength to take it back, so this battle is inevitable."
Qin Xiaodao: "Tage, why are you telling me this? Are you asking me to go with you to reinforce Uluolan?"
"That's right." Tag nodded and said: "You are very good at martial arts, very smart, and have great ideas, so I want you to come with me. If you make a contribution, I can not only forgive you for the mistakes you made before, but also make peace with you."
You trade war horses. Didn't you come to the grassland just to trade war horses with our True Feathers? As long as you come back alive, I promise to give you two thousand war horses to take back. What do you think?"
