Han Shu brought the light cavalry back to Liaolong City, and the battle has come to an end.

The enemy's horses that Yunmeng attacked couldn't play their role, and the armored earth dragon couldn't break through the city and was trapped near the city wall, so as Han Shu said, none of them escaped.

But the problem is that these armored earth dragons first smashed the city wall head-on, and then were violently beaten to death by the Pan Pao cavalry army. Thirty-seven of them were killed one after another.

For Han Shu, this is undoubtedly a huge loss for Liaolong City.

What made him feel even more distressed was that these invading enemies of Yunmeng were more than half injured, and there were only more than 1,300 people who were captured alive and unharmed!

Fortunately, something is better than nothing.

It was definitely a surprise to be able to capture so many people on a rainy day.

"Sure enough, no one is rich without windfall. I didn't understand the meaning of the words of the great chief. It turns out that these captives are the wealth of Liaolong City!" Han Shu sighed.

It just so happens that there is a lack of labor for the various constructions of Liaolong City.

Getting more than a thousand captives as slaves, and they were all strong fighters, just relieved this pressure.

Rhinoceros came to explain the capture to him.

In addition to the captives, there are sixty-five armored earth dragons alive.

There are more than 2,200 ordinary horses.

There are more than one thousand and one hundred copper knives.

There are more than 1,500 copper rods.

There are also more than a thousand refined bone knives and sticks, but for Da Jiang, these are of no use, they are nothing more than things that are traded in the market.

And according to what the chief said, the tribes in Changli will be slowly digested and absorbed by Da Jiang soon, so I am afraid that these bone knives and sticks will only be left in the warehouse later.

Of course, there was also a Hulei Leopard.

But according to what the chief said recently, the newly acquired BMW can be kept by himself.

This means that Han Shu can transfer with a Hulei Leopard and a Wanliyun!

Xishou arranged for someone to clean up the battlefield, and then went back to the earth building with Han Shu, took a bath and went to Han, and then came to discuss important matters together.

"Boss, what should we do here?" Xishou asked.

Although he won the battle and Da Jiang only had dozens of people injured, he was still worried.

Because there are only three or four thousand soldiers with more than two thousand gold weapons!

Although these gold utensils are not as sharp as Da Jiang's golden knives and guns, they also have gold utensils!

This is fundamentally different from the so-called big tribes such as the Fang Lei Department and the Giant Bear Department!

Because to have such a large-scale gold artifact, it must not be exchanged, and the price is too high.

They must be able to forge goldware themselves!

Unexpectedly, Han Shu took a look at the captured copper knife, and said with a grin: "Are you worried that they have enough people and gold utensils?"

Rhinoceros nodded: "Yes!"

Han Shu shook his head, and handed him the copper knife: "Take a closer look at the difference between my Jiang's gold knife and their copper knife!"

Xishou looked at his knife, then at the copper knife, and asked, "Ours is sharper?"

Han Shu laughed loudly, shook his head and said, "It's because of the different craftsmanship!"

"Craft?"

"Well, the great chief said that the method of making golden knives is called craftsmanship." Han Shu laughed, "You can see that their golden knives are obviously made by beating, and the blades are also thick and thin, not sharp enough.

And our golden knife is made of iron, which is smelted, hammered, and sharpened.

Therefore, the hardness and sharpness of the golden knife are stronger than those of my ginger. "

"But they will have a golden knife after all!" Xishou sighed.

Han Shu shook his head: "It's good that they have golden knives, but they should be the kind of gold knives cut from the gold ware mountain that the chief said, and directly hammered into gold knives, so you can see that the color of these gold knives is not uniform. Knives also vary in size and length.

I'm more interested in their Golden Knife Mountain than Golden Knife! "

Xishou knew that he didn't know as much as Han Shu, so he nodded worriedly: "Then what should we do next?"

Han Shu smiled and said: "It's simple, send these captives to Hei Ya and Huang Feng, and exchange labor with them."

Rhino nodded.

The regional exchange of labor is a method proposed by the chief to prevent slaves from absconding quickly.

For example, most of the captives from the Changli border worked as coolies in Liaolong City, while most of the prisoners from Fang Lei's tribe worked as coolies in the Changli border and Heixiong City.

Similarly, most of the captives of Yunmeng will gradually transfer north and west through cities such as Heiya, Lei Ze, and Huangfeng, and may even transfer to the newly built Heishui City and Shandao City in the end, allowing them to Staying away from Wanzhangyuan really made them "leave their homes" and cut off the possibility of absconding back.

"Where's the armored earth dragon?" Rhinoceros asked again.

Han Shu took a deep breath and said, "The Armored Earth Dragon must stay temporarily to prevent most of Yunmeng's people from coming again. We have to draw heavy cavalry from other places."

"Okay!" Rhinoceros nodded, "How do I inform the chief about the matter here? It's raining now, and the pigeons don't even send messages."

Han Shu pondered for a while, then nodded and said: "I'll write a letter and have someone express it to Longcheng, and see what the great chief has to say."

Xishou asked again: "Aren't you going to ask the big boss now?"

Han Shu smiled and said: "I would like to ask, hasn't he gone to the old place of the Kuiwei Department now? When we get in touch with him, maybe the Yunmeng Department will come again!"

Only then did Xishou nodded: "Is there anything else to arrange?"

Han Shu thought for a while and said: "Let Catcher Lang strictly visit Wanzhangyuan, prepare more food and fast horses for them, and give them more rewards for this battle.

Without them sending messages in time, we couldn't have played so smoothly! "

"Okay!" Xishou nodded, "This should be... By the way, what about the prisoner you captured, it seems to be a leader!"

Han Shu grinned and said: "What else can I do, of course it is to interrogate him, so I can gather more useful news for me, Da Jiang!

By the way, don't reveal our situation when you ask questions, don't even reveal the name of the tribe!

If there is anything that is not sure, we will discuss it! "

"it is good!"

So the two got to work on their own.

Han Shu wrote a letter to explain the situation and sent someone to Longcheng.

And Xishou is responsible for taking people to Shenxili.
After Han Shu finished writing the letter, Xishou hadn't come back yet.

Han Shu felt a little strange, so he went to find Rhinoceros.

It turned out that the rhino head was stomping on the spot in a rage.

Because even though that Xili woke up, he was stubborn and refused to say a word.

When Han Shu came to him, Xishou only knew that his name was "Xili", and didn't ask anything else.

Of course, Xi Li didn't mention the situation of the Yunmeng Department, but scolded the Liaolong Department there.

Han Shu signaled Xishou to let him come.

Rhinoceros stepped aside, and patted Xili with a smile: "Brother, let's have a good chat?"

Xi Li stared at Han Shu.

Because he took a look before he passed out, and knew that it was Han Shu who caught him.

Han Shu laughed and said: "Why, just staring at me like this can make me look dead?"

Xi Li yelled coldly: "Did your Liaolong Department team up with the Blue Bird Department?"

"Join forces with the Blue Bird Department?" Han Shu was stunned for a moment, and glanced at the rhino head.

Rhino pouted.

Han Shu realized that the guy named "Xili" in front of him hadn't figured out who they were hitting!

With a thought, he grinned and said, "Why, can't our Dragon Department join forces with the Blue Bird Department?"

Xi Li was taken aback.

He didn't expect Han Shu to ask him in turn.

That's right, why can't the Dragon Department join forces with the Blue Bird Department?

But he immediately sarcastically said: "You Liaolong tribe are also useless. The Blue Bird tribe killed so many of your clansmen, and you actually join forces with them for a little salt. You are really worthless!"

"Huh?" Han Shu's thoughts changed sharply.

He suddenly remembered Lei Long's frank and honest conversation in Dragon City, telling everyone a "past event" between Liaolong Department and Yunmeng Department.

At that time, the Shuangli War had not yet started, and all the important members of Da Jiang's military department were present, so they were very familiar with what Lei Long said.

The general situation is that the Liaolong Department is limited by salt, and wants to exchange it with the Blue Bird Department, but the Blue Bird Department refuses to give it.

It lasted for several years before and after, and both sides hurt each other.

The most serious one was that both sides suffered heavy losses. In the battle at Qingzhang Mountain, both sides lost more than 10,000 people.

The Fanglong Department is also actively looking for a way out, ordering Lei Ze and the Manniu Department to find salt in the north, and looking for salt in the south.

As a result, the Bulls and Lei Ze got nothing, and they had to exchange salt from the Dragon Department.

The Liaolong Department met Yunmeng Dabu on the Wanzhang Plain, and exchanged a large amount of salt for a large price.

Since then, Lei Long has always wanted to open up the passage between Wanzhangyuan and Yunmeng, so he had an open and honest talk with Yunmeng.

Thunder Dragon feels that the Liaolong Department is far enough away from Yunmeng Department and there is no threat, so he wants to establish a long-term exchange relationship with Yunmeng Department.

However, Yunmeng Dabu was more careful, and after sending people to Liaolongbu for field inspection, he proposed that Liaolongbu should become a subordinate tribe.

Of course, he was rejected by the arrogant Thunder Dragon.

But later, with the continuous fighting with the Blue Bird Department, Lei Long felt helpless, so he had to lead people to re-explore Wanzhangyuan himself, and continued to exchange salt with Yunmeng Department.

It's a pity that he encountered a ferocious beast on Wanzhang Plain. Although Thunder Dragon killed the ferocious beast, he also fell to the root of his illness and almost died.

Therefore, Thunder Dragon told this sad past in front of many people in Da Jiang. There are reasons for revealing his heart, and the words of the chief, "Except for the Blue Bird Department, I, Da Jiang, will inherit everything from the Dragon Department. Including the hatred of the Liaolong Department".

So when Lei Long said this, it also meant that he hoped to avenge the Yunmeng Department through Da Jiang.

Because he almost died because of Lulu Yunmeng Department!

Thinking of this, Han Shu immediately realized that in the final analysis, the root cause of the old enmity between the Liaolong Department and the Yunmeng Department was all because of salt.

He immediately sneered and said, "If you say that the Liaolong tribe doesn't grow, you deserve it too? If most of you Yunmeng tribe didn't have any salt, you might have become a subordinate tribe of the Blue Bird tribe long ago!"

Xili was so choked up by this sentence that she blushed and coughed twice, which was caused by the injury on her back.

But he still ridiculed Han Shu: "Just because of Yanba, you have forgotten the thousands of people in your own tribe who died tragically!"

Han Shu also showed sarcasm and jealousy: "If you weren't forced by the Yunmeng Department, how could we join hands with the Blue Bird Department?"

Chu Li was surprised.

Han Shu's expression did not seem to be fake.

He frowned and said, "Your Liaolong Department chooses to be subordinate to me, Yunmeng, and there is no loss to you. Why don't you agree?"

Han Shu said coldly: "Then if you want to choose to be subordinate to the Liaolong, are you willing?"

Chu Li remained silent.

Xishou said coldly: "Since this person is unwilling to say anything, he might as well kill him!"

"No!" Han Shu shook his head and said, "It's still useful for him to stay!"

"Useful?" Rhinoceros was surprised.

Han Shu nodded: "That's right, let him go to the Yunmeng Department to exchange for salt."

"what!"

Rhino exclaimed.

Even Chu Li was surprised.

Han Shu sneered, "Don't most of Yunmeng have a lot of salt, so let them exchange it for salt!"

As he spoke, he turned his back to Xili and winked at Xishou.

Rhinoceros was puzzled.

He had never cooperated with Han Shu before, and he didn't understand Han Shu's meaning, so he could only honestly say: "You catch him, you have the final say!"

Saying that he shook his head, turned and left.

Although he didn't understand what Han Shu was going to do, he knew that Han Shu had other plans.

Worried that his poor cooperation would disrupt Han Shu's plan, he simply walked out.

Han Shu was surprised.
He naturally saw Xishou's doubts, but he didn't expect that he made the most sensible choice in this situation - leave!

Since that's the case, right now I'm up to myself to fool around, no, I'm fooling this idiot in Xili.

So he turned his face and looked at Xili with a smile: "Tell me, how much salt do you think you are worth?"

Xi Li frowned, his face full of vigilance: "You won't kill me?"

Han Shu laughed loudly: "Killing you, wouldn't there be nothing left, and wouldn't it be great if you could be exchanged for salt?"

"Change, change salt?" Chili was stunned,

It never occurred to him that he didn't die because the other party wanted to exchange salt!

His mind became active in an instant, and he asked tentatively, "You mean, as long as I, Yunmeng, bring most of the salt, you can exchange me back?"

"Not bad!" Han Shu nodded.

"You keep your word?"

"Nature keeps the word!"

Xi Li took a deep breath, endured the pain, stared at Han Shu and said: "Tell me, how much salt can be exchanged for my life!"

Han Shu laughed loudly, stretched out his hand and patted him: "I think the horse you are riding is very good, so you are also a leader in the tribe, can you save this salt?

Tell yourself, how much salt can you get back in exchange for it! "

Xi Li frowned, lowered his head in thought, and then tentatively said, "Twenty cans?"

"No, let's talk!"

"Fifty?"

"No, too little!"

"one hundred?"

"it is good!"

Han Shu laughed loudly and said: "One hundred cans are worthy of your status as leader!"

"Then my horse?" Chu Li asked tentatively.

"It's mine now!" Han Shu said coldly, "I won't change this one!"

"Those of my tribe..." Xili had no choice but to ask again, "Can you also exchange it with salt?"

Han Shu sneered and sneered: "You want to exchange all the remaining one thousand people back, and then come to take revenge?"

Immediately he laughed wantonly, drew out the golden knife on his body, and slashed at the wood tied with the scorpion, the knife penetrated more than an inch into the wood.

"I have a golden knife in the Dragon Department now, afraid of your revenge?" Han Shu sneered, "You asked why we are willing to join forces with the Blue Bird Department, you are wrong, it is you who should ask the Blue Bird Department why they are willing to join forces with us! "

"Why, why?" Xili suddenly felt that his brain was not enough.

Because the other party wanted to exchange salt for people for a while, and yelled "not afraid of revenge" for a while, he really couldn't understand what the other party meant.

So he can only ask honestly...

"Why?" Han Shu snorted coldly, with a look of contempt on his face, "With such a golden knife, do you think they would not consider the end of smashing against us?

Even if there is a vendetta? "

"This..." Chili was startled in his heart, feeling suddenly enlightened.

That's right, there are more than 10,000 people and thousands of fighters in the entire Liaolong Department. With such a sharp golden knife, how can the Blue Bird Department not have a headache?

Coupled with the fact that most of the Yunmeng Department is constantly putting pressure on the Jade Bird Department in the south, if they don't let go of their grudges at this time and continue to fight to the end with the Liaolong Department, then more people from the Jade Bird Department will die.

Instead of this, they might as well join hands and send out salt to suspend the enmity of the Dragon Division...

Chi, who thought he had figured out the key point, tensed up.

If the Blue Bird Department and the Liaolong Department joined forces for a long time, wouldn't it be a big trouble once they reached an agreement to cross the Wanzhangyuan to attack the Yunmeng Department?

In the final analysis, what the Liaolong Department wanted was nothing more than salt!

"Golden knives, impenetrable earth walls, thousands of soldiers..." Xi Li quickly calculated in his heart, "They have fought against the Blue Birds for many years, and there are thousands of casualties if not 10,000.

And most of my Yunmeng was just a sneak attack this time, and did not cause any real damage to them.

As long as Yunmeng doesn't mention this enmity, there will be room for change...

If I can convince the great chief to join hands with the Liaolong Department to destroy the Blue Bird Department, not only can I solve most of the potential hidden dangers of Yunmeng Department, but I can also obtain the vast territory of the Blue Bird Department and countless salt!

At that time, whether I, Yunmeng, and I will try to kill the Liaolong, or really join forces with it, I believe we can get these sharp golden knives from them.

After all, they don't have as many people as I have in Yunmeng! "

So he took a deep breath, suppressed all the sarcasm and resentment, and looked at Han Shu seriously: "I have a suggestion to tell you, how about it?"

"Proposal?" Han Shu's heart moved, and he thought to himself, "I'm hooked!"

However, he frowned and looked wary: "What proposal?"

Xi Li looked sincerely at Han Shu: "How about your Liaolong Department joining forces with my Yunmeng Department?"

"Joining forces with you?" Han Shu sarcastically said, "You are the ones who attacked my dragon department!"

"No!" Chili shook his head and said, "It's true that we attacked you, but you didn't die substantially, and even if you did, it wouldn't be many?"

Han Shu nodded "subconsciously", but hurriedly snorted: "Why are you asking this!"

With a clear heart, Xili nodded and said: "Since you have no real casualties, it means that our two departments have not formed an irreconcilable death feud, right?"

"No vendetta?" Han Shu sneered, "We killed one or two thousand of you, can you let go of this kind of enmity?"

The skin on the inside of the scorpion jumped violently.

Only then did he realize that most of Yunmeng's injuries were so severe this time!

But no one died on the other side!

"Killed more than two thousand people, and captured more than one thousand people..." Chili's heart was trembling, and he became more and more certain that he could not continue to be an enemy of the Liaolong Department.

"We must win them over!" Xi Li secretly made up his mind.

He took a deep breath again, and said in a deep voice: "This sneak attack on your Liaolong Division is due to most of my Yunmeng's fault, so some casualties are... inevitable!

But you have no casualties, so as long as I, Yunmeng, mostly choose not to take revenge, then there is a possibility for our two departments to join forces! "

"We joined hands?" Han Shu was "accidental", "Aren't you going to take revenge?"
