When a 800-mile letter from the coach of the Wolf Tooth Guard and the coach of the Xiongzhou Guard Xie Bozhao rushed to the capital, the emperor Zhao Zhe and many ministers of the court were overjoyed.

Although the emperor Zhao Zhe and the civil and military ministers in the court did not think that the coalition forces of the Jinle clan and the Heijie clan could capture Langya City, the war had not ended for a day, and Langya City always touched the nerves of the monarchs and ministers of the Dayan.

Now, the Langya City not only eliminated Jinle and the two tribes of Heike, but also forced Jinle and Heike to surrender to the Great Yan Empire. Then the Great Yan Empire can focus all its energy on the attack on the Jinluo Kingdom.

Regarding Jinle and the Heike tribes, the Heike tribes hoped that Dayan could use food to hire the cavalry of their two tribes to go to the Jinluo Kingdom to fight. The emperor Zhao Zhe and the military officers had a very unified opinion. How did the great Yan need the help of the Hulu to fight? However, some civil officials felt that they could borrow the cavalry of the Heike tribes of Jinluo Kingdom to consume the power of the Jinluo Kingdom.

In the end, the opinions of the emperor Zhao Zhe and the military officers prevailed, which meant that the Great Yan Empire rejected the request of the Jinle and Black Capricorn tribes.

As for Li Bin's suggestion of exchanging grain for Jinle and the Capricorn war horses, it was almost unanimously agreed by the emperor Zhao Zhe and the civil and military ministers. Emperor Zhao Zhe then personally wrote an imperial edict to Langya City, asking Li Bin to discuss all matters of exchanging grain for war horses with Jinle and Capricorn war horses, and gave Li Bin the right to retrieve 1.5 million stones of grain from various official warehouses in Xiongzhou Prefecture.

Emperor Zhao Zhe also gave Li Bin a secret decree, asking Li Bin to exchange 1.5 million stones of grain for as many war horses as possible, so that the Knight Camp could leave 20% of them to prepare for the expansion of the Knight Camp.

The results of the attack on the Knight Camp had already been sent to the capital. Emperor Zhao Zhe and several bigwigs from the Ministry of War were all very satisfied with the performance of the Knight Camp and had put the expansion of the Knight Camp on the agenda.

Because the connection between Langya City and the capital was used to speed up the 800 miles, on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Langya City received an imperial edict, the royal guard who delivered the letter also handed over the secret edict of Emperor Zhao Zhe to Li Bin.

Then Li Bin discussed with the Wolf-Organ Guard's coach Xie Zhifeng and the Xiongzhou Guard's coach Xie Bozhao, and sent envoys to the camp of the Jinle and Black Capricorn clans.

In a giant felt bag in the coalition camp, Khan Humusa of the Jinle tribe asked Xi Rilie, "Although the Yan people refused to use food to recruit warriors from our two tribes to Jinluo to fight, they were willing to use food to exchange for the war horses of our two tribes. Xi Rilie Khan, do you think our two tribes should exchange with the Yan people?"

The Khan of the Black Grace clan Xi Rilie pondered for a moment and said, "The most important thing is not to let our two tribes starve to death. Ben Khan felt that it could be replaced, but the price given by the Yan people was too low. Twenty stones of grain would have to be replaced with a war horse from our Black Grace clan or your Jinle clan, which is not possible!"

After pausing for a while, Xi Rilie, the Khan of the Black Capricorn tribe, continued: "Ben Khan felt that he had to exchange for one hundred stones of grain for another. He heard that the price of war horses in Yan State is very expensive. It takes more than 200 taels of silver to buy an ordinary war horse. The price of 100 stones of grain is less than 100 taels of silver in Yan State. Moreover, the war horses of our Black Capricorn and Jinle tribes are both famous good horses on the grassland. One horse requires 100 stones of grain, and the people of Yan State have made a lot of money!"

Khan of Jinle tribe Humusa nodded and said, "Since Xi Rilie Khan also agreed, then we two tribes will discuss the exchange ratio with the Yan people, and use the least war horses as much as possible to exchange for more food."

However, Li Bin, who was responsible for exchanging grain for war horses in the Great Yan Empire, seized the weakness of the Jinle tribe and the Black Grass tribes' shortage of food, and always bit twenty stones of grain for a war horse. The two sides sent envoys to talk to each other for six days, and Li Bin felt relieved and increased the proportion to twenty-five stones of grain for a war horse. However, the war horses must be Jinle, and the two horses of the Black Grass tribes that can carry a weight of four or five hundred kilograms.

In fact, the more famous Jinle horses and Capricorn horses on the grassland belong to the same breed as the Southern Qiang horses of the Southern Qiang people, and the differences between the three are not big in various aspects.

Faced with Li Bin's extremely harsh exchange ratio, Khan of the Jinle tribe, Humusa and Khan of the Heike tribe, Xirilie, under the pressure of the food shortage of the two tribes, finally agreed to exchange a war horse for twenty-five stones of food. So the two sides agreed that the Great Yan Empire would take out 1.5 million stones of food in exchange for 60,000 war horses of the Jinle and Heike tribes.

However, in the end, the Khan of the Jinle tribe, Humusa and the Khan of the Black Capricorn tribe Xirilie jointly proposed a challenge to the Dayan army in Langya City, which was that both sides each sent generals to conduct six competitions, each of which was a five-game three-win system.

In every competition, Jinle and Capricorn were willing to use fifty adult Ronglu horses as bets, hoping that the Great Yan Empire would use 100,000 stones of grain as bets in each game.

The Ronglu horse is a famous horse on the grassland, almost second only to the grassland sky horse in all aspects. The shoulder height of the Ronglu horse reaches more than 1.6 meters, and naturally, the height of the head can reach more than 2 meters, and the weight can reach eight or nine hundred kilograms, even exceeding the weight of the Anpuma in Li Bin's hands.

The Ronglu horse was once a unique war horse to the Ronglu clan, so it was named Ronglu horse. However, the Ronglu clan no longer exists now, and the main reason for the disappearance of the Ronglu clan is the existence of the Ronglu horse.

You should know that even on the grassland, adult Ronglu horses are worth a thousand gold. The Jinle and Heike tribes actually have more than a thousand Ronglu horses. The reason why Jinle Khan Humusa and Heike Khan Xi Rilie were willing to take out three hundred Ronglu horses as bets.

In addition to hoping to get more food, the more purpose is to regain some face from the Dayan army through six competitions.

After all, the two tribes sent 400,000 troops to attack the Langya Pass of the Dayan Empire, which is almost well known on the grassland. However, the 400,000 troops of the two tribes have not yet captured the Langya Pass, but have lost almost 150,000 people. This is a very big blow to the reputation of the Jinle clan and the Heijie clan, and has a considerable impact on the prestige of the two Khans.

The two Khans of the Jinle clan and the Black Capricorn tribe both hope to rely on the warriors with outstanding martial arts in the two clans to save some face.

Although some of the more famous warriors of the two clans died in the previous cruel siege, some of the most powerful warriors of the two clans are still there. This is also the confidence that Khan of the Jinle clan Humusa and Khan of the Black Capricorn Xi Rilie dare to propose the confidence to hold six competitions.

When Li Bin learned that Jinle and Capricorn were willing to take out three hundred Ronglu horses as the bet for the six competitions, he was immediately moved. You must know that a precious war horse such as Ronglu horse is definitely hard to come by and is a divine horse that is difficult to buy even if you have money.

For example, the Anpuma, which was produced in Anpu Country, is a little worse than the Rongluma in all aspects. Last time, the He family in Qizhou gave Li Bin the face and barely sold it to Li Bin twenty horses.

When the coach of the Wolf Tooth Guard, Xie Zhifeng, learned that Li Bin was going to agree to the challenge raised by the Jinle tribe and the Black Capricorn tribe, he frowned and said, "General Li, the 1.5 million stone of grain given to you by the emperor has been exchanged for 60,000 war horses. If you lose the competition, how can you fulfill your bet?"

Li Bin said confidently: "Don't worry, coach. If I can't guarantee anything else, but if it's a one-on-one competition, the mighty players under my command will be enough to help me win all six games. The captains of Jinle and Capricorn will definitely shoot themselves in the foot this time, and I will pick up three hundred Ronglu horses for nothing. This is a good thing that a pie fell from the sky!"

Xie Bozhao, the head coach of Xiongzhou Guards next to him, hesitated for a moment and said, "But what if he loses one game?"

Li Bin said indifferently: "Even if I lose all six games, I will only lose 600,000 stones of grain. The money in my hand is quite abundant, and I can pay for it myself."

According to the requirements of Jinle and Capricorn tribes, the bet must be paid immediately after each competition is over. Now the transaction of 1.5 million stones of grain for 60,000 war horses on both sides has not officially begun. The grain transported from various official warehouses in Xiongzhou Prefecture to Langya City has reached 400,000 stones, which is enough for Li Bin to pay the bet lost in the four competitions.

Xie Zhifeng and Xie Bozhao looked at each other, and finally agreed that Li Bin and the generals under Li Bin would represent the Great Yan Empire and accept this challenge from the Jinle tribe and the Black Capricorn tribe.

Xie Zhifeng immediately said to Li Bin: "General Li, your powerful generals are everywhere. The Wolf-Tooth Guard can't help much in terms of manpower. But if you really lose the competition, I can temporarily lend you 50,000 stones from the Wolf-Tooth Guard's military rations."

Xie Bozhao also nodded and said, "I can also lend General Li 50,000 stones from the military rations of Xiongzhou Guards. Even if I lose one, I don't need to use the batch of food to trade 60,000 war horses."

Li Bin hurriedly said gratefully: "Thank you, the two men, for this, I feel even more confident!"

January 15, 17th year of Jianping, was the last day of the Spring Festival in the Great Yan Empire. About six or seven miles north of Langya City, tens of thousands of cavalry from Jinle and Black Capricorn were arranged here. Today is the day when the two sides agreed to hold six competitions.

At this time, the layers of corpses under Langya City had been burned by people sent by both sides. Even the slopes made by Jinle and Capricorn tribes with corpses and soil were cleaned up.

Except for the land stained with blood under the city walls, most of the traces of the fierce offensive and defensive battle were no longer visible.

Seeing Jinle, the Heike tribes came as promised, and the gate of Langya City slowly opened. Then Li Bin led his personal guards, the heavy armored cavalry and ten teams of heavy cavalry from the Knight Camp, walked out of the city gate in turn and started lined up under Langya City.

Finally, the three thousand heavy infantrymen from the Langya Guard and Xiongzhou Guard were walking directly to the front of their cavalry and lined up to fight. The three thousand heavy infantrymen were sent by Xie Zhifeng and Xie Bozhao to help Li Bin support the scene.
