Su Shuang pondered for a moment and decided not to talk around in circles with these Wu Heng leaders. He answered straight to the point: "King Nanlou, I became an official in the Han Dynasty not long ago. This time I came here on behalf of my Lord Liu.
The general has come to persuade you to suspend your swords and offer your repentance to me, the Celestial Empire."
Before Su Shuang's words could be heard, Su Puyan, the leader of Wuheng, a vassal state in Liaodong, shouted angrily: "What good thing are you thinking about, you Chinese dog? I would rather die than surrender! If you want me to stop the army, then
Let’s talk on the battlefield! If you defeat me, I will stop fighting.”
Nanlou snorted in displeasure and said to Su Puyan: "King Qiao, please respect yourself. This is the tent of King Qiuliju." However, Nanlou also said to Su Shuang with an unkind expression: "Old friend,
If you are here to do business with us, we welcome you. If you are here to lobby for the Han people, you should go back. For the sake of our past kindness, we will not kill you."
Su Buyan knew that he had overshadowed the guests just now, and with his own strength of less than a thousand, he should not be the first to speak in front of the kings such as Nanlou and Qiu Liju, so Su Buyan returned to his seat dejectedly.
Su Shuang saw all this with his eyes. He immediately realized that his so-called old friend's influence among the barbarian kings was quite large. Although Nanlou's tone towards Su Shuang was also unkind, and he even changed the subject a bit.
He was completely sealed, but Su Shuang, who understood Nanlou's character, didn't care. He changed the subject slightly and said: "My lords, if you just talk about my Mr. Liu, you may not know who I am talking about. But I am
If I want to change the name, I think everyone here will know it."
Qiu Liju admired the culture of the Central Plains, had read some military books from the Central Plains, and knew the importance of knowing the details of the enemy. After hearing what Su Shuang said, he asked with great interest: "Master Su, who is your Master Liu?"
Su Shuang couldn't help but smile when Qiu Liju asked, and replied proudly: "My Lord Liu is the Lord of Huxiao Villa and the Lord of Tianma City - Lord Liu Hanguang, my Lord, has been responsible for annihilating the Yellow Turbans since he was born.
He rebelled against the party and was invincible in all attacks. He was promoted to Youzhou Mu because of his meritorious service. Now the territories where your various ministries are located are under the control of my lord. The troops that defeated your cavalry not long ago were my lord's soldiers and horses."
After Su Shuang's words, the Wuheng leaders present were really surprised. When it comes to Liu Ming, they all know it. Who on the grassland doesn't know that the sorghum wine is brewed by Huxiao Villa? Yes.
Who in Huxiao Villa doesn’t know Liu Ming, Liu Dashan. Moreover, Liu Ming’s construction of Tianma City is even more legendary. In the past, whoever wanted to build a city would have spent three to five years, or even three years.
Fifty years. During this period, the consumption was even greater. When Tianma City was first built, all the tribes did not pay attention to the construction of Tianma City, thinking that it would be too early for the city to be built. If Liu Mingde had
The people and horses are not good for themselves, and if they continue to cause trouble, they can also increase the losses of Liu Ming and the others. But who would have thought that Tianma City was built in less than a year, and it was also strong and huge. At that time, the tribes recognized this
Tianma City was built so quickly and well with the help of gods. Moreover, after the completion of Tianma City, various markets such as the horse market and the tea market were opened, which greatly enriched the lives of the grassland tribes and brought more benefits to the grassland.
All tribes have brought endless benefits. All tribes in the grassland regard Tianma City as a sacred city. Although the wealth of Tianma City has also aroused the greed of some grassland tribes, one thing is that even if Tianma City is robbed and occupied, if Tianma City is not
If people dumped these supplies into the interior of the Central Plains and no one transported the goods from the interior of the Central Plains, the robbery would be in vain. On the contrary, it would destroy the lives and vested interests of the various tribes in the grasslands, and they would be subject to the ambitions and siege of other tribes.
One is Tianma City, which is also very powerful. Most of the city is young and strong, with a population of hundreds of thousands. Everyone is martial. No tribe has this strength. It can eat Tianma City in one bite, so Tianma
The city has become a myth and legend on the grassland, and as the city lord of Tianma City, Liu Ming is even more revered by the grassland people. Just because the information at that time was not fast, and coupled with the war, these Wu Heng
The leaders really didn't know that Mr. Liu, the shepherd of Youzhou, was Liu Ming, the owner of Huxiao Villa. Now they heard what Su Shuang said.
Su Shuang watched with satisfaction as the Wu Heng leaders looked stunned when they heard Liu Ming's name. Before these tribal leaders could recover, Su Shuang continued: "My lords, you are originally me.
You are also a vassal state of the Kingdom of Heaven, and you are well aware of the military might of our Kingdom. The Huns who roamed the grasslands back then were arrogant, arrogant, and domineering. None of your families on the grasslands has been bullied by them, but they are offending our court.
What will happen next? Rather than being exterminated, can we still see the shadow of the Xiongnu clan on the grassland? Therefore, all of your clans have received the favor of our dynasty and no longer suffered from the oppression of the Xiongnu.
Get up. But now, you don’t think about gratitude and loyalty. As a vassal state of our dynasty, you instead attack the cities within our dynasty. Is this right?"
These Wu Heng leaders had just woken up from Liu Ming's reputation and were speechless by Su Shuang's words. Qiu Liju could be considered a wise man, so he defended himself: "
There is a way in the sky, there is reincarnation in the world, princes and generals, why would you rather have a kind of call? Today, our Wuheng tribes are powerful, but your Han Dynasty is in civil strife and corruption, and you also force all my tribes to fight and fight, and violently conquer our tribes
How can we not fight back if we are violent? When we wipe out the Central Plains, your Han Dynasty will be just a vassal state of ours. How can this be unreasonable?"
Su Puyan also spoke up: "That's right. Why can you Han people occupy the rich land of the Central Plains, and we have to suffer here? Are you Han people as strong as us? When we wipe out all of you, what will happen to all the Central Plains people?"
The land can be given to us to graze our horses. We can also live in a warm house, and we no longer have to go hungry and cold here."
Su Shuang sneered, looked at these Wu Heng leaders with contempt and said: "You also want to defeat our Han Dynasty, what a dream! Even if each of you is stronger than us Han people, you don't even look at it.
How many people do your tribe have in total? I don’t know about others, but my old friend, King Nanlou, I don’t know how many people there are in your tribe? Can your tribe have a population of more than 100,000? No. And you are here
Everyone, who has more clansmen than my old friend King Nanlou? It’s really not enough for you. Our Lord’s private city alone, Tianma City, has a population of no less than 200,000.
, and the territory of Youzhou under the jurisdiction of my family has a population of not less than a few million, and this is just a part of us big men. Even if ten of us fight against one of you, we can fight to the death of you, and I, a big man,
But his vitality is intact.”
At this point, Su Shuang took a breath, and then said: "Besides, do we need ten of us to fight you? Are your equipment as sophisticated as ours? In the first battle, your cavalry had not charged yet.
In front of our formation, they are almost dead. At the back, our more than 3,000 cavalry faced your more than 10,000 cavalry, and we still killed you to a complete defeat. And this is just my Lord Liu, in order to quickly defeat the enemy.
To destroy the traitor Zhang Ju, some troops were hastily gathered. Now, after my master has justly punished Zhang Ju, he has rested for more than half a year, and now he has stationed countless troops. If our celestial dynasty does not advocate etiquette, my master Liu will be even more benevolent and righteous.
, if you don’t want to commit more crimes, I would have come here and wiped you all out a long time ago. So why do I need to come here to advise you to wait? As for why we Han people enjoy the Central Plains, that is even more of a joke! The Central Plains was developed by our ancestors for generations.
Every inch of the land retains the blood and sweat of our ancestors. Of course, only we can enjoy it. This is a matter of course and no one can take it away. Moreover, we Han people have a long history of culture. If nothing else, the wine in your cup,
Isn’t it brewed by us Han people? Can you imitate it?”
Su Shuang's words made the leaders of Wu Heng tremble with fear. What Su Shuang said was so right and the truth. It was exactly what the Wu Heng tribes had been worried about. The Han Dynasty had a large population, so it was
This is the worry of all Wuheng tribes.
This Qiu Liju has the fastest brain and is the best at thinking. Qiu Liju thought to himself: The sum of his talents is not even a fraction of others. In other words, he is just taking advantage of the fact that the Han Dynasty is not claiming to be true, so that he can gain some benefits.
If the Han Dynasty were serious about it, the fate of my own tribe would be really sad. The Xiongnu would have learned from the past! And now the Wuheng tribes combined are not as good as when the Xiongnu were in their heyday. What can we do to fight the Han Dynasty? This time before
The one who came to appease him was Mr. Liu, the lord of Tianma City. All the miracles of this man were known to all of his clansmen. How could his tribesmen defeat him? If nothing else, as long as Mr. Liu stopped the market in Tianma City.
I am afraid that my tribe will not be able to survive this winter. And Su Shuang is right. This Central Plains was passed down by the ancestors of the Han people. It is really unreasonable for my tribe to rob it.
Qiu Liju thought about it here and couldn't make up his mind. The other leaders of the various tribes also had no idea. The tent fell into silence for a while. At this time, a man stood up from behind Qiu Liju and said: "This Master Su,
We are guests from afar, and we should treat them well. Let's not talk about business now. I will go outside and ask someone to put on a wrestling show for your entertainment. I wonder what your Majesty thinks?"
The leaders of the various tribes didn't know what to say, and felt a little cold. At this time, someone suggested, so they all agreed: "Exactly, exactly. Let's have fun today, and talk about business tomorrow. You go
Find someone to perform."
The young man followed the order and went out. Su Shuang looked at the man's back thoughtfully and asked, "Who is this young man?"
Nanlou continued: "This is Tadun, the son of King Qiu Liju. This young man is very brave and smart. He has the demeanor of Maodun Chanyu at the beginning. He is a young hero."
Qiu Liju snorted and said, "I am a good follower, but I am a hero and my son is a good man. When my son Lou Ban grows up, he will be much better than my follower."
Nanlou and other kings of all clans flattered Qiu Liju and said, "That's natural. Isn't this Tadun taught by the king? When Lou Ban grows up, he will definitely be a hero."
Qiu Liju twirled his beard and laughed, feeling very proud.
Su Shuang kept all this in mind.
While they were talking and laughing, Tadun led two burly men in and asked them to perform a wrestling show to entertain everyone.
These two are both powerful players, and this wrestling was really exciting. However, everyone in the room was full of thoughts and couldn't stand it at all. Only Dian Wei was a little interested.
Since Dian Wei followed Liu Ming, he often had fights with Zhang Fei. Dian Wei was originally a subordinate general, so when he fought with Zhang Fei, he would inevitably compete with some fists and kicks. When Zhang Fei used fists and kicks, he would often beat Liu Ming.
After using some of the Sanda and wrestling skills he was taught, Dian Wei learned these wrestling skills over time. At this time, Dian Wei confirmed the wrestling skills of these two people with Liu Ming's, and felt that the skills of these two people were absolutely perfect.
They are not as advanced as those taught by Liu Ming, but these two people are matched against each other, and they are both extremely powerful, so when they fall, they are also very beautiful.
At this time, the result of the wrestling had come out. The tallest man had won the wrestling. Everyone in the tent cheered for him. The big man also raised his hands to indicate. But suddenly,
This big man pointed at Su Shuang and the others and started talking. Dian Wei didn’t understand Wu Heng’s language at all. When Su Shuang and the leader Wu Heng were talking just now, Dian Wei couldn’t understand. Now he listened to this big man again.
Pointing at people like himself and shouting, Su Shuang frowned again and asked Su Shuang in a low voice: "Master Su, what did he say?"
Su Shuang frowned and said: "He said that they have finished their performance and he wants us to compete with each other to provide some entertainment for the kings. They are testing us."
Hearing this, Dian Wei smiled and said: "That's not easy. All I have to do is teach them a lesson. Let them know the interests and disadvantages of our empire."
At this time, Nanlou stopped him loudly: "This is our distinguished guest. You can't wait unreasonably. You still haven't apologized to our distinguished guest."
This big man is a famous wrestler among the Wu Heng tribe. He has never met an opponent. This time he came to test the strength of the Han people on Tadun's order. He didn't take these Han people seriously at all. At this time, Listening to Nan Lou
He stopped drinking, very reluctantly.
At this time, Su Shuang listened to Dian Wei's words and said confidently: "This gathering is a blessing. How can we lose everyone's interest? Let Dian Xiaowei, who came with me, have a try with him.
