Chapter 259

Liang Xiao lived in the post house for more than ten days, and has not received any notice of Queen Yuezhi's interview.

These days, according to Liang Xiao's instructions, Guo Wenbin went to the markets inside and outside the Jianshi City to buy some unique local crop seeds and learn about the situation of the Yuezhi people.After investigation, he inquired about some news.

Including the royal family, the Yue clan is now divided into five powerful tribes, distributed in different directions, and shouldering the important task of guarding the frontier.Apart from the two tribes remaining east of Congling, there are three major tribes that have settled in the middle of the river.

Compared with nomadic life, sedentary life has unattainable advantages.After more than 30 years of adaptation, the leaders of these tribes - they call them Huanhou - like the settled life and are unwilling to return to the nomadic life with no fixed place.In addition, the neighbors in the land in the middle of the river are relatively weak. Whenever they fight, they can win a lot and win a lot. Naturally, they don't want to go back to the east of Congling to fight against the powerful Wusun and Huns.

Compared with the former Hexi Corridor, the Hezhong Land is farther away from the Huns and Wusun people and safer, and has become their new paradise.

"So, the possibility of persuading the queen is even smaller?" Liang Xiao pondered after listening to Guo Wenbin's report.

"It should be more difficult." Guo Wenbin smiled wryly. "If it were me, I wouldn't want to go back. It's human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages."

Liang Xiao agreed.From the queen's point of view, he certainly agrees with the queen's choice.But in this way, not only the Dahan's plan to form an alliance with the Yuezhi failed, but even Dawan could hardly count on the Yuezhi's support.The people of Dawan are cowardly and rich, and in the mouths of the people of Yuezhi, they are simply an attractive piece of fat.

Guo Wenbin finally said: "There is not much iron in the market, and most of them are controlled by the Yuezhi people. As for the Uzi iron, there is no shadow. It is said that it is more valuable than gold now. It can be compared with Uzi iron Yes, only the top-quality silk from my big man."

"Have you found out where most of the horses, salt and iron, and other war supplies are shipped?"

"Mainly in the south, it is said that the war with Daxia has reached a critical moment."

Liang Xiao thought for a long time, and discussed with Guo Wenbin for a while, but he still couldn't find a way to persuade the Yuezhi people to return east.Liang Xiao had no choice but to let Guo Wenbin go to rest first, then he went back to the bedroom, took off his coat, and prepared to start the daily practice.

Alpha came up to meet him and took Liang Xiao's coat.Liang Xiao was a little surprised. "Where's Sigma?"

Alpha smiled and said, "She hasn't come back from boxing practice yet."

Liang Xiao looked at the pitch-black night outside, very surprised. "So hardworking, it seems that I have tasted the sweetness."

"Although Sigma is the youngest, she has the highest savvy. Among the four of us, apart from her weaker strength, she has the best martial arts."

Liang Xiao smiled.He has never fought with these four Amazon servants, and he doesn't know which of them is the strongest.However, judging from the progress of Sigma's shooting practice, what Alpha said is generally not bad.Don't look at Sigma, who looks like a lolita, she is very agile. Whether it's practicing archery with him or learning boxing with Tu Niu'er, she knows everything well and is willing to work hard to practice.

Liang Xiao washed up, moved his body, and started his daily homework.Alpha closed the door, walked out, and stood outside the door holding the knife.Liang Xiao didn't need anyone to wait on him when he practiced archery, and he practiced for a long time, one or two hours was normal, and sometimes he would even practice overnight when he was in good condition.Someone who can always wait by the side will disturb him instead.Standing outside the door, Liang Xiao's eyes were quiet, and it was convenient for them to change shifts.

Liang Xiao started the daily routine practice, shooting left and right, and repeated drills.After more than a month of practice, his right shot has become proficient, almost the same as the left shot.Practicing right shooting also had a positive effect on left shooting, the heat flow in the body became smoother and smoother, and there was no problem at all with the black bow with more than two stones.

Liang Xiao practiced for a while, then suddenly stopped, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he had an idea.

The Yuezhi people don't take Dawan seriously because Dawan is too weak.If Dawan became stronger, or changed to a stronger opponent, would the Yuezhi people still be so relaxed?Facing Daxia, they have an advantage, that is because Dawan has always been indifferent to the matter, hanging high, sitting and watching Daxia being attacked by the Yuezhi people.If Dawan sent troops to attack the northern part of the Yuezhi, or simply conquered Dawan...

Liang Xiao opened his mouth wide.Since you can't lure, you can only intimidate.In the face of life and death, he did not believe that the Yuezhi people could be so calm.

Liang Xiao was in a good mood, and practiced almost all night, and only slept for an hour in the early morning.

A Shena walked out of the house quickly, looking at Liang Xiao with a dignified expression, a little embarrassed and a little surprised.

"What's the matter with your envoy, just send someone to inform me, why come here in person?" Ah She squeezed out a smile, looked at Liang Xiao's face, and wanted to see some clues from Liang Xiao's face.But there was no smile on Liang Xiao's face at all, Ah She felt a little uneasy, thinking that Liang Xiao was angry because of his neglect.

"I'm here to bid farewell to Da Lu." Liang Xiao waved his hand, and Alexander and another strong Greek boy carried a box over. "A small gift is not a respect, please accept it with a smile."

Shocked, Ah Shena hurriedly let Liang Xiao back into the mansion.farewell?Is Liang Xiao ready to give up?
Liang Xiao hesitated for a moment, then followed A Shena into the gate with half push.He looked around, and found that the architectural style of Ashina's mansion and the serving servants were similar to those of Dawan, and there were not many shadows of the nomadic life of the Yuezhi people. Over the past 30 years, the Yuezhi people have changed a lot.

The host and guest were seated, and after a few pleasantries, Liang Xiao asked Alexander to open the box, revealing the brocade inside.Ah Zena's eyes lit up all of a sudden, he stared at the brocade for a while, the smile on his face became wider and wider, but there was still a trace of suspicion in his eyes.

"Your envoy, you are..."

"This is the Han brocade I bought from Dawan. Dalu also knows that although I came from Dahan, the journey was difficult, and all the gifts I brought were lost. Fortunately, there are many Han merchants in Dawan cities, so I came from Dawan. They bought some in their hands, and please don't be disgusted by Dalu."

"How dare, how dare." Ashena said modestly, politely comforting: "The Huns and Wusun people are fierce, and it is already lucky that your envoy arrived safely."

Liang Xiao smiled.Azhena reminded him again that the Yuezhi people did not want to fight against the Xiongnu and Wusun.

"That's true. That's why I want to give Dalu these silk brocades. When the Wusun people occupy Dawan, even if Dalu has money, he won't be able to buy them."

"Wusun people want to occupy Dawan?" Ah She was startled, his expression changed drastically.

"Why, Dalu doesn't know yet?" Liang Xiao looked at Axiana in surprise, but his heart was filled with joy.Sure enough, this trick hit the weak spot of the clan. "The envoy of Wusun died in Dawan, and Lie Jiaomi can't let it go. Dawan has few soldiers, but it is rich in good horses. For Wusun people, it is a piece of fat that is easily available. How can Lie Jiaomi not be tempted?"

Ashina's face darkened, and she looked a little nervous.But he didn't speak, just looked at Liang Xiao quietly, trying to see the truth from Liang Xiao's expression.After all, he hadn't heard what Liang Xiao said, so it was hard to say whether it was true or not.

"Where will your envoy go, to Dawan or to Dahan?"

"I came to see Dalu today, just to ask Dalu to be lenient and issue a document to let me go to Bactria."

Ashina frowned, the corners of her mouth curled slightly, and her eyes were unkind. "Does your envoy want to form an alliance with Bactria and become an enemy of my Yuezhi?"

"Bactria is not your opponent, so how can I pin my hopes on them. I just want to go back to Dahan from Kaido."

"Hai Dao?" Ah She laughed, obviously not believing Liang Xiao's words. "Kaido can also return to the big man?"

"The seas in the world are all connected." Liang Xiao nodded. "Of course, the sea is very windy and rough, and it is very dangerous. However, compared with the Wusun people and the Huns, the sea is kind. Even if you are unlucky, you can get a whole body, and it is better than being killed by the Wusun people and the Huns." It’s good to cut off the head to make a wine vessel. Dalu, don’t you think so?”

Azhana was so embarrassed that she was speechless.

-

Azhena quickly walked into the palace, came to Queen Yuezhi, and stood bowed.

Queen Yuezhi sat in a large tiger-skin chair, looking wearily at the eastern sky.In the distant sky, the white snow peak is covered by clouds, looming, as if a fairy dwells.

The Queen looked fascinated, with a hint of unwillingness on her brows.After a long time, she turned her head and took a look at A She. "What happened to the Han people?"

"The Han people are helpless, but the Wusun people...but something is wrong."

"Didn't the Wusun people retreat? Aliuwu is coming back soon. Dalu, what should we reward this time?"

"Your Majesty, it is better to reward him to go to Dawan."

"Let him conquer Dawan?" The queen gave A She a displeased look, raised her wrinkled hand, and patted the armrest of the chair vigorously. "Dawan is rich and has a lot of good horses. If he owns Dawan, wouldn't he be stronger?"

Azhena smiled wryly, "That's better than leaving it to the Wusun people."

"Wusun?" The queen was taken aback for a moment, then sat up abruptly, her expression changed drastically. "The people of Wusun withdrew their troops to attack Dawan?"

Ah She nodded and repeated Liang Xiao's words.The queen was terrified when she heard it, and she didn't want to believe it. "He...could he be pretending to be big and trying to scare us?"

Ashina shook her head. "I saw more than a dozen treasured swords, all made of iron from Hyderabad. Even if Dawan is rich, it is impossible to give him so many treasured swords. He said that they were taken from the Wusun envoy. Seventy percent credible."

The queen gasped, her eyes frightened.

"Your Majesty, there is another piece of evidence that makes me believe his words." Ashana swallowed. "The human bow that was robbed by the Huns is now in the hands of the Han envoy."

"Really?" The queen was taken aback and stood up involuntarily.
