Chapter 249 Pros and Cons
Liang Xiao lived in the inn for more than ten days and had not received a notice from the Queen of Yuezhi. △↗,
These days, Guo Wenbin, as Liang Xiao's instructions, appeared in the market inside and outside the Jianshi City, purchasing some local unique crop seeds to learn about the situation of the Yueshi people. After investigation, he found some news.
Including the royal family, the Yuezhi is now divided into five powerful tribes, distributed in different directions, and is responsible for the heavy responsibility of garrisoning the border. In addition to the two tribes left east of the Pamir Mountains, three large tribes have settled in the river.
Compared with nomadic people, settlement life has an unattainable advantage. After more than 30 years of adaptation, the leaders of these tribes called the Chonghou, who fell in love with the settlement life and was unwilling to return to the nomadic life without a fixed place. In addition, the neighbors in the river land are relatively weak, and whenever they fight, they can win steadily and win a lot. Naturally, they are unwilling to go back to the east of the Palacioles and fight against the powerful Wusun people and the Huns.
Compared with the Hexi Corridor, the land in the river is farther away from the Huns and the Wusun people, and it has become their new paradise.
"So, the possibility of convinced the queen is even smaller?" Liang Xiao pondered after listening to Guo Wenbin's report.
"It should be more difficult." Guo Wenbin smiled bitterly. "If it were me, I wouldn't want to go back. It is normal for human beings to seek profit and avoid harm."
Liang Xiao agreed. From the queen's perspective, he certainly agreed with the queen's choice. But in this way, not only did the Dahan's plan to alliance with the Yuezhi failed, but even Dayuan and the hard-earned Yuezhi support were hard to support. The Dayuan people were cowardly and wealthy, and they were simply a tempting piece of fat on the lips of the Yuezhi people.
Guo Wenbin finally said: "There is not much iron in the market, most of which are controlled by the Yuezhi people. As for the wuz iron, they cannot even see the shadow. It is said that it is more expensive than gold now. The only one who can compare with the wuz iron is the best silk from my great man."
"Have you ever found out where most of the horses, salt, iron and other war-related materials were shipped?"
"Mainly in the south, it is said that the war with Daxia has reached its critical moment."
Liang Xiao thought for a long time and discussed with Guo Wenbin for a while, but still couldn't find a way to convince the Yuezhi people to return home. Liang Xiao had no choice but to let Guo Wenbin go to rest first, return to the bedroom, take off his coat, and prepare to start the daily practice.
Alpha came up and took Liang Xiao's coat. Liang Xiao was a little surprised. "Where is Sigma?"
Alpha smiled and said, "She hasn't come back yet when she practices boxing."
Liang Xiao looked at the dark night outside and was surprised. "It seems that he has tasted the sweetness because he has worked so hard."
"Although Sigma is the smallest, she has the highest understanding. Among the four sisters, she has the best martial arts skills in addition to being less powerful."
Liang Xiao smiled. He had never fought with these four Amazon maids, and he didn't know which of them was the strongest. However, judging from the progress of Sigma's shooting, Alpha said it roughly. Although Sigma looked like a loli, she was very agile. Whether she was a cumming with him or a boxing with Tuniuer, she was very clear at one point and was willing to practice.
Liang Xiao washed up and moved his body. He started his daily homework. Alpha brought him to the door, walked out, and stood outside the door with a knife. Liang Xiao did not need anyone to serve him when he was practicing, and he practiced for a long time, and it was normal for one or two hours. Sometimes he was in good condition and he would even practice overnight. No one could always wait by his side, which would interfere with him. Standing outside the door, Liang Xiao's eyes were quiet, and it was convenient for them to change shifts.
Liang Xiao began his daily routine exercises, left shot, right shot, and repeated practices. After more than a month of practice, his right shot movements have become proficient. They are almost the same as left shot. Practicing right shots has also had a good promotion effect on left shots. The heat flow in the body is getting smoother and smoother, and there is no problem with the black bow with more than two stones.
Liang Xiao practiced for a while, suddenly stopped, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he had an idea.
The Yuezhi people did not take Dayuan seriously. It is because Dayuan was too weak. If Dayuan became stronger or replaced by a stronger opponent, could the Yuezhi people be so relaxed? They have an advantage in facing Daxia, because Dayuan has been in trouble, hanging up and watching Daxia be attacked by Yuezhi people. If Dayuan sends troops to attack the north of the Yuezhi, or simply hunting Jiaomi to conquer Dayuan...
Liang Xiao opened his mind. Since he could not induce others, he could only threaten him. Faced with life and death, he did not believe that the Yuezhi people could still be so calm.
Liang Xiao was in a good mood and had almost practiced for a night, only slept for an hour in the early morning.
Ashana quickly walked out of the mansion and looked at Liang Xiao with a serious expression, a little embarrassed and surprised.
"What's the matter with you? Send someone to notify me. Why come here in person?" Ashna squeezed out a smile and looked at Liang Xiao's face, trying to see a clue from Liang Xiao's face. However, Liang Xiao had no smile on his face. Seeing Ashna felt a little nervous, thinking that Liang Xiao was angry because of his neglect.
"I'm here to say goodbye to Dalu." Liang Xiao waved his hand, and Alexander and another strong Greek boy brought a box over. "A little gift is not respectful, so please accept it with a smile."
Asha was shocked and hurriedly asked Liang Xiao to the mansion to say goodbye? Is Liang Xiao ready to give up?
Liang Xiao hesitated for a moment, followed Ashana into the gate half-pushed. He looked around and found that the architectural style of Ashana's mansion was similar to Dayuan, and he could no longer see many shadows of the nomadic life of the Yuezhi people. In thirty years, the Yuezhi people had changed a lot.
After a few words, Liang Xiao asked Alexander to open the box and illuminate the brocade inside. Ashana's eyes lit up. He stared at the brocade for a while, the smile on his face became more and more intense, but there was a trace of suspicion in his eyes.
"Empress, you are..."
"This is the Hanjin I bought from Dayuan. Dalu also knows that although I came from Dahan, I have been struggling all the way and all the gifts I brought have been lost. Fortunately, there are many Han merchants in Dayuan, so I bought some from them, so please don't dislike Dalu."
"How dare you, how dare you?" Ahsha said modestly and politely: "It is a blessing for the Huns and Wusuns to arrive safely."
Liang Xiao smiled. Asha was reminding him again that the Yuezhi people did not want to go against the Huns and Wusun.
"That's true. That's why I want to give Dalu and other silk brocades. When the Wusun people occupy Dayuan, even if Dalu has money, they can't buy it."
"The Wusun people want to occupy Dayuan?" Ah She's shocked and her face changed drastically.
"Why, Dalu doesn't know yet?" Liang Xiao looked at Ashana with a surprised look, but his heart was filled with joy. Sure enough, this move hit the weakness of the clan. "The Wusun envoy died in Dayuan, and Hunjiaomi could not give up. Dayuan had few soldiers, but he had a lot of good horses. For the Wusun people, it was simply a piece of fat meat that could be easily obtained. How could Hunjiaomi not be moved?"
Ashana's face turned gloomy and his expression was a little nervous. However, he didn't say anything, but just looked at Liang Xiao quietly, trying to see a little falsehood and reality from Liang Xiao's expression. After all, he had not heard of what Liang Xiao said. It is still difficult to determine whether it is true or false.
"Where will the noble envoy go? Go back to Dayuan or to Dahan?"
"I came to see Dalu today, just to ask Dalu to reunite and issue a document to ask me to go to Bactrica."
Ashana's brows frowned, his lips curled slightly, and his eyes were not good. "Is the envoy trying to form an alliance with Bactricia and become an enemy of my Yuezhi?"
"Baktria is not your opponent, so how can I pin my hope on them? I just want to go back to Dahan from Haido."
"Haidao?" Ashana laughed, obviously not believing Liang Xiao's words. "Can Haidao return to the big man?"
"The seas in the world are connected." Liang Xiao nodded. "Of course, the sea is windy and thrilling, and it is also very dangerous. However, compared to the Wusun people, the Huns, the sea is kind. Even if it is unfortunate, it is better to get a whole body than the Wusun people and the Huns who cut off their heads to make wine vessels. Dalu, don't you?"
Asha was embarrassed and speechless.
Ashana quickly walked into the palace, came to the Queen of Yuezhi, and stood up.
The Queen of Yuezhi sat in a large tiger-skin chair and looked at the east sky tiredly. In the distant horizon, the white snow peaks were covered by clouds, looming, as if they were living in gods.
The queen could see it with a hint of reluctance between her eyebrows. It took a long time before she turned her head and glanced at Asha. "What's wrong with the Han people?"
"The Han people have no choice but to Wusun people...but there is something wrong with it."
"Didn't the Wusun people retreat? Aliuwu is coming back soon. Dalu, what should I reward this time?"
"Your Majesty, why not reward him to Dayuan."
"Let him conquer Dayuan?" The queen glared at Asha with displeasure, raised her hand with wrinkles, and patted the armrest of the chair with force. "Dayuan is rich and so good, so he can get Dayuan, wouldn't he be stronger?"
Ashana smiled bitterly and said, "That's better than what is left to the Wusun people."
"Wusun?" The queen was stunned for a moment, sat up suddenly, and her face changed drastically. "Would the Wusun people withdraw their troops to attack Dayuan?"
Ah She nodded and repeated Liang Xiao's words. The queen was frightened and unwilling to believe it. "Will he... pretend to be a big talk and want to scare us?"
Ashana shook his head. "I have had more than a dozen precious swords, all of which are made of iron from Hyderabad. Even if Dayuan is rich, it is impossible for him to take out so many treasure swords. He said that it was taken from the Wusun envoy, and it is at least seven points credible."
The queen took a breath and looked frightened.
"King, there is another evidence that I have to believe his words." Ahshana swallowed. "The bow that was stolen by the Huns back then is now in the hands of the Han envoy."
"Take it seriously?" The queen was shocked and stood up involuntarily-
