"You want to see the little Khan?"
On the grassland, a hundred feet away from Tuli Yating, Abdang led a bearded man with a beard, walking towards Tang Jian and others. The man was nearly seven feet tall, with a strong back and a strong waist. He was tall and powerful, and matched with him That rough face is a typical tough guy on the grassland! When they got closer, the bearded man, under the guidance of Abdang, shouted and asked Tang Jian.
Tang Jian's eyes flashed, and he thought that this big man should be the chief of the Mohe Black Water Tribe mentioned by Abdang just now, so he replied calmly and calmly: "That's right! It's me who asked to see the little Khan!"
The big man glanced sideways at Tang Jian and said in a cold voice: "Little Khan is busy with military affairs, how can you see it just by asking? Is it just because of the few trucks of Central Plains goods behind you? Besides, who knows if you are capable?" A spy sent by Khan?”
Obviously, before coming over, Abdang had already introduced the situation of Tang Jian and others to this big man, but he was not as easy to talk to as Abdang. As the chief of a tribe, , he undoubtedly has more issues to consider!
Tang Jian seemed to be well prepared for the troubles faced by the bearded man. He replied with a normal expression:
"A few years ago, when I was doing business in the grasslands, I was cared for by the Little Khan many times. Later, I settled in the Central Plains for a while. A few days ago, I heard that the Little Khan was besieged by the troops of the Great Khan, so I specially brought several carts of treasures from the Central Plains. As a gift to the little Khan, I hope to help the little Khan survive this disaster! As for whether I am a spy sent by the Great Khan, I dare to ask you, now that the Little Khan is besieged here by hundreds of thousands of troops of the Great Khan, this Under such circumstances, do you think the Great Khan would go to any lengths and send spies to the Little Khan’s camp?”
What Tang Jian said was well-founded and clear in thinking, especially the last sentence, which was simply a torture of the soul of this bearded man!
Indeed, the current situation is completely overwhelming for Jieli, who has many soldiers, generals, and sufficient food and grass. If this situation continues, Tuli's destruction may be a matter of time. It seems that Jieli is indeed unnecessary. Send spies to sneak into the Tuli camp!
Although the bearded man with a beard looked sulky when he heard this, he obviously understood the truth of Tang Jian's analysis. However, even so, he did not intend to let Tang Jian go so easily. He only saw a calm face, and then asked:
"Which tribe are you from? Also, you said that you were doing business in the grasslands in the early years and were cared for by the little Khan. I have followed the little Khan for nearly ten years, why have I never heard of you?"
Hearing this question, Tang Jian didn't know what to do, but Yue Minghu and others behind him were all shocked, because everyone knew that this question of the bearded man was very difficult to answer, and one bad answer would completely expose him!
But Tang Jian still looked calm and composed, and he replied: "I am from the Xi tribe, my name is Xu Bujian, and I am just a nobody, because the little khan does not collect as much as the big khan, and we The traveling merchants on the grassland are able to make a living, you must be the chief of the Blackwater Department, right? You are a big shot, it is normal for you to have never seen a nobody like me!"
The Xi tribe is also a tribe under Tuli Khan. However, compared to the Mohe Heishui tribe, the Xi tribe can only be regarded as a small tribe and its power is very weak. Therefore, it is impossible for a bearded man to be familiar with this tribe. Everyone inside.
"Hmph! You have good eyesight! I am indeed Ni Shutuo, the chief of the Blackwater Tribe!"
The bearded man snorted coldly when he heard this, and then said: "But with just these, I can't let you see the little Khan! The situation is critical now. If you really want to repay the little Khan, you can give these to the little Khan." Put down the goods and leave, I will give them to the little Khan for you!"
Although Ni Shutuo's tone was still as inhumane as before, at this time, he had already made some concessions in his words.
Tang Jian smiled, because he knew that he had to "amp up his moves" at this time, otherwise there would be no chance for him to amplify his moves later. He took the initiative to take a step forward and came to the place where Ni Shutuo, the chief of the Blackwater Department, In front of them, a group of tribal warriors behind Ni Shutuo saw Tang Jian's actions and thought that this guy was going to do harm to their chief, so they raised their scimitars and were on guard, as long as Tang Jian made any move. They would chop their scimitars at Tang Jian's head as quickly as possible!
Ni Shutuo looked as usual and reached out to stop his subordinates' overreaction. He actually didn't take Tang Jian seriously because he couldn't feel the slightest aura of a strong man from Tang Jian. He thought that even if Tang Jian made a sneak attack, he wouldn't be able to do anything. Can't do any harm to him!
"Chief Blackwater, in addition to bringing goods to the little Khan this time, I also brought him a good way to get out of trouble. I can help the little Khan get out of the current desperate situation!"
Tang Jian regarded others as nothing and approached Ni Tuo step by step. When he came to Ni Tuo, he whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"What?"
After hearing what Tang Jian said, Ni Tuo was stunned for a few breaths and finally reacted. He took a step back, looked at Tang Jian with incredible eyesight and said, "Is what you just said true?"
Seeing Ni Shutuo's reaction, Abdang, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but wonder. What kind of wind and waves has Chief Chief not seen? What did the man in front of me say to the chief? To surprise the chief like this
"Of course it's true!"
Tang Jian did not hesitate and nodded with certainty.
Ni Shutuo frowned and thought for a long time, still doubting: "Why should I believe you? Maybe this is a lie you deliberately made up to meet the little Khan!"
Tang Jian thought that the fish had finally taken the bait. He saluted Ni Shutuo and said: "This is a good proof. Chief, please take me to see the little Khan. As long as I hide something from you, the little Khan will definitely kill me." Me, and if what I say to you is true, the little Khan will definitely not kill me. If you give me a chance, you will also give the Mohe Black Water Department a chance. What do you think, Chief?"
bet!
Tang Jian is risking his own life to gamble with the future of the tribes under Tuli's account! He believed that the chief of the Black Water Department of Mohe who was in a desperate situation would definitely make the right choice!
Sure enough, Ni Shutuo was slightly stunned when he heard this. He probably didn't expect Tang Jian to be so direct. After hesitating for a moment, he finally nodded and said: "Okay! I will take you to see the little Khan. If what you said is true, little Khan." If the Khan doesn't kill you, I will cut you all into pieces; if what you say is true, you will be a guest of our Mohe Black Water Department from now on!"
Now, the man on the grassland is that simple. If you cheat me, I will kill your whole family. If you are kind to me, then I will definitely repay you with a spring of water!
In fact, for Ni Shutuo today, there is really no better choice. Although he is loyal to Tuli and is willing to sacrifice his life and blood for Tuli, if there is a way to survive without betraying He would definitely be willing to take advantage of the sudden opportunity!
At this time, Tang Jian finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart when he heard this. He smiled calmly and said: "Thank you chief!"
The reason why he went to such trouble to meet Tu Li in this way instead of directly revealing his identity as an envoy of the Tang Dynasty was actually for Tu Li's benefit! Because there are so many people here, there is no guarantee that one or two people will be Jie Li's spies. If he directly reveals his identity as an envoy of the Tang Dynasty, once the news reaches Jie Li's ears, it will definitely arouse Jie Li's vigilance. Jieli would think that Tang Dynasty and Tuli were beginning to unite, and he might speed up the attack on Tuli, and even concentrate all his forces to eliminate Tuli at all costs in the shortest possible time!
In that case, his purpose of going to the grassland would be completely defeated!
Therefore, Tang Jian would never reveal his identity as the envoy of the Tang Dynasty in front of so many people. If he wanted to do so, he would do so in person to Tu Li, and all the people present must be Tu Li's trusted confidants!
"Hmph! Come with me! You are the only one, and the people behind you will stay here! I hope that in half an hour, you can become a guest of our Mohe Black Water Department, and your head is still on your neck superior!"
Ni Tuo snorted, then turned around and walked first towards the Yating not far to the north.
Tang Jian turned around and winked at Yue Minghu, who nodded, and then Tang Jian quickly followed Ni Shutuo. As he walked forward, he smiled and said: "Don't worry, chief, I won't let you down!" I will definitely still be alive in an hour, and I will be a guest of the Black Water Department of Mohe!"
Ni Shutuo snorted coldly and arrogantly, but did not speak.
The two of them soon arrived outside Tuli's Yating, with Ni Shutuo leading the way. No Turkic soldiers dared to block them along the way, so it was truly unhindered.
Tuli's Yating is not just a single tent like other ordinary tents. To be precise, it is a small palace, a splendid small palace. Although it looks a bit luxurious, this is because as a young Turkic Khan A must-have card!
It is said that Tang Jian had seen Jieli's Dental Palace when he was on an envoy to Turks a few years ago. It was really majestic and glorious, many times more luxurious than Tuli's Palace. Well, this was mainly because Tuli was poor. There are far less tribes than Jieli's tribes!
"You stand here and wait, I'll go see the little Khan first!"
The two of them paused outside Tuli Yating. Ni Tuo said to Tang Jian without looking back. After that, without waiting for Tang Jian to respond, he took a few steps forward, then opened the curtain and walked in.
Seeing this scene, Tang Jian simply didn't bother to answer. He looked at the surrounding environment while patiently waiting for the call from Tuli Khan inside.
After waiting for about half a quarter of an hour, a sergeant finally came out and said to Tang Jian: "Little Khan, let you in!"
Tang Jian was distracted for a while, quickly put his mind back together, and responded: "Yes!"
After saying that, he raised his feet and walked towards the dental court.
