Chapter 272 Want to be on the wall?(1/2)
"Prince, after my general heard that you and General Ma Mengqi were old friends, he specially sent me to visit you. This is one of them."
"Secondly, you must have heard that our army has marched north along Wudu County into Longxi, and a war with Cao's army is about to break out."
"The Baima Qiang live between Longnan and Wudu. General Zhao also heard that you, Prince, are brave enough to defeat others. You are quite prestigious among the Qiang people. You are truly a hero among the people."
"He himself also admires you, and often says that if he has the chance, he will make friends with such a hero as the prince."
Facing Yang Wanwan's cross-examination, the envoy was neither humble nor overbearing, with a serious look on his face, and solemnly raised his hands and spoke.
Judging from his expression, it is obvious that he has excellent psychological quality.
After hearing the words of the person in front of him, although he knew that his words were often exaggerated, Yang Wanwan still had a knowing smile on his face, and his joy became even stronger.
What a way.
People are always willing to hear compliments.
With a faint smile on his face, he thought for a moment and couldn't help but said: "Haha, is this really true?"
"The previous deeds of General Ru in Shenlang Qiang have long been spread among the tribes of Baima Qiang."
"Your general is still young, but he is extremely courageous and brave. I admire him very much!"
"It's a pity that we didn't have the chance to meet each other!"
One word fell.
Yang Wanwan's face also showed a look of regret.
Seeing his expression, the envoy couldn't figure out whether he was sincere or just acting for fun.
But then he thought about it, and he put his hands in his hands and said with a smile, "Really?"
"Then wait until the battle between our army and Cao Jun comes to an end!"
"When I return, I will convey the prince's wishes to General Zhao. I wonder what this will do?"
"It would be great if it could be like this."
"Then I'll thank you in advance."
After saying that, he waved and saluted.
When the envoy saw this, he immediately returned the courtesy and said: "Prince, you don't have to be so open-minded!"
When they met for the first time, the two parties just exchanged simple greetings and tested each other.
The messenger did not tell the truth immediately.
Instead, he was secretly planning in his heart, hoping to slowly lead out the plan of having the White Horse Qiang and his troops escort him.
in the following days.
On the one hand, the envoy kept in mind Zhao Tong's instructions before leaving, and on the other hand, he negotiated with Prince Yang Wanwan in an adaptable manner, revealing his plan step by step.
Many days later.
When I heard that the Han envoy asked the tribes under his command to protect him.
Yang Wanwan's appearance changed again and again in an instant, and he suddenly asked in a serious tone: "General Zhao, do you want our troops to protect the safety of the army's retreat for him?"
In one word.
Look at his emotions and reactions.
After tens of days of pulling and pulling with Yang Qianwan, it was only now that he felt that the time had come, and slowly revealed the true purpose of coming here.
But seeing his emotions and reactions, the envoy couldn't figure out what decision he would make for a while.
After pondering for a while, the envoy handed over his hand and said in a deep voice again: "Yes, my general heard that the prince and General Ma Mengqi have a close relationship, and they are very close friends."
"During the Hanzhong War last year, I heard that the prince also responded to General Ma's call for surrounding tribes to rally against Cao Cao, attracting the enemy's attention and making an indelible contribution to the main force of our army in conquering Hanzhong!"
"General Zhao thought, since a hero like the prince is friends with General Ma, he is here to invite you. I hope you will not refuse!"
And the words end here.
The envoy sent here is also a shrewd person.
While speaking, he did not show any weakness, nor did he put his status in a very high position. Instead, he praised him with a normal attitude.
The words just fell.
After hearing this, Yang Qianwan's expression naturally showed a bit of joy compared to just now.
But he didn't agree immediately.
After all, sending troops to help is no small matter.
This is related to the survival plan of the whole clan to continue to live in Bailongjiang and other places in the future.
A little carelessness will trigger an all-out battle with Cao Fang.
As the helmsman of Baima Qiang, he would not be swayed by a few words.
The words are over.
He was temporarily hesitant.
Although Ma Chao led his troops north to attack Liang before, he wanted to create chaos to attract and contain Cao's military strength, so as to reduce the pressure on the main force to compete for Hanzhong County.
Yang Wanwan basically agreed happily at that time.
It seems like he doesn’t have any worries at all!
But this has to be divided among people.
Although Zhao Tong's previous deeds in Shenlangqiang made him slightly moved and admired.
But in the face of the gains and losses of the whole family.
Obviously you have to think twice about this!
If it were Ma Chao who sent an envoy to request, it might be a different scenario.
Time passed by minute by second, and it felt like it was going extremely fast.
Seeing that Yang Wanwan was silent for a long time, his face was still serious and he did not give the slightest response.
The messenger once again filtered the responses that he had already thought of in his mind.
"Prince, I wonder why you are hesitating?"
Glutinous rice
"Does it mean that you don't want to send people from the tribe to help if General Ma isn't here?"
Explain everything clearly and truthfully in one sentence.
Since Yang Wanwan doesn't want to respond.
Then he thought it would be better to make the topic public directly.
Both sides should stop playing charades.
Hearing this, hearing that the Han envoy in front of him was actually having a showdown straight to the point, Yang Wanwan's face suddenly showed a hint of surprise, and he responded calmly:
"What are you talking about?"
"How can I say that I don't want to help?"
"It's just an emergency, and I just heard you mention the news about the battle between your two armies."
"I can't rush to send troops, right?"
"Please give me some time to think about it."
Words fell out one after another.
Naturally, he would not reveal his true inner thoughts.
And the polite words he said can also be said to be full of official appearances.
There seems to be no flaw to be found.
Hearing his response, the envoy also had a thick smile on his face and followed his words: "Of course, if the prince needs a certain amount of time, he can go and make arrangements."
"I can understand all of this, and naturally I am willing to give your department some time."
"But the war is urgent on the front line. If Prince, you don't make a decision early, send the elite men from the tribe to protect the areas around Wangcheng Valley and the Western Circle."
"Once Cao Jun unites with some other Qiang tribes to attack in a pincer attack, the main force of our army may be in danger of overthrowing!"
"I hope the prince can make a decision soon!"
They talked to each other one after another.
The messenger's words were also extremely beautiful.
It not only highlights the meaning of asking for military assistance, but also does not reflect the context of the weak side.
Finished talking.
Immediately afterwards, the envoy seemed to have reorganized his words, and responded in a deep voice: "Prince, it is said that when General Ma Mengqi avenged his father and raised troops to rebel against Cao Cao, he retreated to Longyou due to defeat at Tongguan."
