Of course, the most important thing is that no one here is afraid of Zhao Yuan. If they cannot reach an agreement with the Qin Empire, they will first face Zhao Yuan's cruel revenge. This is what no one wants to see, because Ci Nu can
Everyone knows that Zhao Yuan has a strong personality and is a man who would rather live in peace than in ruins. No one can guarantee that he will do something crazy.
"In my opinion, let's not mention the alliance for the time being, and don't break up with each other. Let Lan Cai'er test General Zhao's tone first. If General Zhao is really bullying people too much... we will talk about it then..." An old man originally wanted to say
A few cruel words, but thinking of Zhao Yuan, who was once invincible and murderous in the Cinu Grassland, he swallowed the words as they came to his lips.
"Well, this is a good idea. Let Cai'er explore General Zhao's inner thoughts, and also let Cai'er strive for more benefits for the tribe. Considering Cai'er's personal relationship with General Zhao, there shouldn't be a big problem. This way, we can avoid irritating Zhao.
General, even if we can't reach an agreement, we still have a buffer. There is no justice in business..."
"Yes, that's very good!"
…
Shan Yu sighed. His tribesmen were all frightened by Zhao Yuan. They did not even have the courage to negotiate with Zhao Yuan. Even if he was brave enough to defeat Zhao Yuan, he would not be able to negotiate with Zhao Yuan without the support of his tribe.
original counterbalance.
Suddenly, Shan Yu felt a little lucky. Fortunately, he did not take risks. If he had a falling out with Zhao Yuan and led such a group of tribesmen who were afraid of Zhao Yuan to fight, the consequences could be imagined. I'm afraid Zhao Yuan
With a loud roar, the tribesmen would abandon their helmets and armor and run away...
After a brief discussion, everyone unanimously decided to let Lan Cai'er test out Zhao Yuan's tone before deciding on the alliance.
Things developed according to Zhao Yuan's preset estimate, without any deviation...
"How's it going?" Zhao Yuan watched Lan Cai'er walk into his tent with a strange look on her face.
"What else can you do? You have guessed it. Now I have become King Shan Yu's spy. I am responsible for trying to trick you and maximize the interests of the Ci Nu clan." Lan Cai'er sighed and walked to Zhao Yuan.
In front of him, he gently undressed Zhao Yuan and took off his belt with the utmost gentleness, "Cai'er is going to use a beauty trick now."
"Then Cai'er, don't let Mr. Zhao down!" Zhao Yuan laughed loudly, held Lan Cai'er in his arms, and put his big hands into Lan Cai'er's clothes, wantonly and frivolously.
"嘤嘤......"
Lan Cai'er languished in Zhao Yuan's arms, closed her eyes slightly, and let out a seductive moan, looking like she was ready to be picked by him.
Not to mention one night of romance.
For several days, Zhao Yuan was eating, drinking and having fun at Shan Yu's camp, but there was no progress in the alliance between the two parties. Shan Yu would press Lan Cai'er about the progress almost every day, and Lan Cai'er would frown and look solemn.
expression.
Zhao Yuan's attitude and Lan Cai'er's mood put great pressure on Cinu's senior management.
Obviously, Lan Cai'er encountered difficulties in communicating with Zhao Yuan, which means that Lan Cai'er has not maximized the interests of the Cinu clan.
What people can't understand is that now the Blackwater City army is pressing on the border, but Zhao Yuan is not worried at all.
In the past few days, Shan Yu was mobilizing his troops and generals and was ready to rush to the aid of Blackwater City.
On the third day, things finally took a turn for the better.
The senior officials of Cinu did not know that there was any turning point. Their judgment came from Lan Cai'er's smiling face, because when Lan Cai'er met with them, she was smiling. It was obvious that the negotiations had made a huge breakthrough.
Otherwise, Lan Cai'er's expression would never be so relaxed.
Seeing Lan Cai'er's relaxed face, everyone's mood improved a lot in an instant. However, the top management of Cinu has suffered a lot in the past few days, and it has been like a year.
really.
Lan Cai'er brought good news.
Zhao Yuan promised that as long as the Ci slaves belonged to the Great Qin Empire and their territory was included in the Great Qin Empire, the entire Ci slave clan would be protected and they would be able to govern themselves regardless of religious beliefs or culture and politics.
This was the first time that King Shanyu heard the word "autonomy". Lan Cai'er spent a lot of energy to let the senior officials of Cinu understand the true meaning of autonomy.
As Zhao Yuan predicted, Chanyu was very strongly opposed to autonomy, but the senior officials of Cinu highly praised autonomy.
Shanyu's opposition is natural, because, according to Zhao Yuan, after autonomy, Cinu Grassland will no longer have an army. Even if there is an army stationed, it will be directly stationed by the Qin Empire. Even Shanyu, too
It has become a spiritual totem and has no substantive rights.
Depriving the Chanyu of military rights is tantamount to depriving the Chanyu of its armed strength. It is reasonable for the Chanyu to resist.
In the past few days, the top leaders of Cinu held numerous meetings, large and small, and leaders of major tribes also arrived one after another to participate in the meetings.
In the end, the Chanyu compromised, because more than 90% of the tribesmen supported autonomy, and even the Chanyu could not reverse this situation.
For ordinary Cinu people, what they want is not war, but peace. If the Qin Empire can allow them to govern themselves and provide them with military protection, why not?
Ordinary people have simple ideas. Having food to eat, clothing to wear, and being able to live carefree on the prairie is the greatest happiness.
Among the conditions of "autonomy", there is one condition that is full of great temptation for the Cinu people. According to Lan Caier's description, as long as the Cinu prairie becomes autonomous, the herdsmen will not only have complete freedom, but also can live in the Qin Dynasty.
There will be no restrictions on territorial migration within the empire.
After the Cinu clan suffered heavy blows one after another, the ambitious Shanyu no longer had a market. When he learned that he had become a Qin citizen, he would not only be able to retain culture and religion, but also be able to freely enter and leave the Qin Empire. All Cinu people
Rejoice, if this is the case, in a sense, it means that the territory of the assassin slaves has expanded countless times...
Of course, Zhao Yuan played a decisive role in influencing the situation, because the senior officials of Cinu knew that Zhao Yuan came to negotiate in person, and some conditions were personally promised by Zhao Yuan, which made some ordinary Cinu people feel
A kind of trust.
Although Zhao Yuan was notorious in the Cinu Prairie, his commitment was more effective than that of the emperor of the Qin Empire.
Lan Cai'er also became a hero in the Cinu Prairie.
In the eyes of many Cinu people, Lan Cai'er sacrificed her own color to achieve the conditions. There is no doubt that Lan Cai'er's sacrifice was huge.
The Lan Cai'er family once again gained status and respect in the Cinu Prairie.
From beginning to end, Zhao Yuan and Shan Yu did not engage in positive negotiations. In fact, after the negotiations ended, neither party signed any valid documents.
The assassins know very well that this kind of document cannot be officially endorsed at present, but as long as it has Zhao Yuan's commitment, it is more effective than any other document.
On the eighth day after Zhao Yuan arrived at Cinu Grassland, Zhao Yuan held a formal meeting with the senior officials of Cinu.
Zhao Yuan's purpose was very simple. He needed to let the Cinu people know Lan Cai'er's efforts, and he also needed to let the Cinu people know that to achieve such conditions, the Cinu people must make a huge effort.
This meeting is also very important to the Cinu people. They must hear the word "autonomy" from Zhao Yuan's mouth. After all, Lan Caier's words are only one-sided.
Finally, after the Cinu people confirmed from Zhao Yuan that the autonomy was not groundless, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Many tribal leaders celebrated.
Only Shanyu felt a little lonely.
At the banquet that night, Zhao Yuan sat next to Shan Yu, and Zhao Yuan could feel Shan Yu's loneliness.
Zhao Yuan could feel the loneliness of Shanyu. The current Shanyu seemed to have betrayed his relatives and been abandoned by all his clan members. You can imagine how he felt.
The most important thing is that the Chanyu had great ambitions and was determined to restore the glory of the Cinu clan, but he did not expect that he would become the last Chanyu. For the Chanyu who valued honor more than his life, this was undoubtedly a great success.
A huge shame.
"Drink." Zhao Yuan picked up the cup and stood up to toast the depressed Shanyu.
"Drink." Shan Yu, who was drinking alone, forced a smile, stood up, picked up the wine glass, and nodded towards Zhao Yuan.
The atmosphere was a bit depressing, and the surrounding tribal leaders were aware of Shan Yu's thoughts, especially some generals who had the same dreams as Shan Yu, and could understand Shan Yu's inner pain.
"Does the king know, as a monarch, how can one be famous in history and be worshiped by all people?!" Zhao Yuan looked solemn and addressed Shan Yu with an honorific title.
"Open the borders and split the soil." Chanyu replied, and there was a solemn and solemn tone in his voice that said he was at the end of his rope.
"No, no, that's wrong! The emperors who can truly go down in history are the ones who can cure the illnesses of the people, have a house to live in, provide for the elderly, have enough food and clothing, and live and work in peace and contentment. This is the kingly way!"
"Really?" Shanyu said without comment and smiled coldly.
