The Iron Cavalry King said calmly: "Miss Yan has also said this to me."
He suddenly mentioned me, which made the atmosphere suddenly become a little strange. Pei Yuanhao was also silent for a moment, and then said, "Oh? Light?"
"good."
"Then, how did the king respond to her?"
The Iron Cavalry King said, "I answered her that horses can be ridden for a lifetime, but they cannot be fought for a lifetime."
My heart couldn't help but jump. These words were indeed what he said when he first arrived at his camp a few days ago. He also clearly told me that horses can ride for a lifetime, but they cannot fight for a lifetime.
And now, he said this to Pei Yuanhao again.
Pei Yuanhao was quiet for a while, and then said, "This is what I mean."
“…”
"Central Yuan and Shengjing have been against each other for so many years, and they cannot continue to be against each other. Others may not understand, but after hearing what the Iron Cavalry King just said, I think you understand."
The Iron Cavalry King said, "So, does Your Majesty the Emperor want to do business with me?"
"good."
"Then, what do you want to do?"
Pei Yuanhao said: "I know that this time the king and the Iron-faced King have joined forces to encircle Shengjing. If I can't win for several months, I will delay it. People from all tribes on the grassland will come to support you. You will either be destroyed in this place or you will be able to be expelled by them and stay away from the grassland. Therefore, the benefit I have given is that I will send troops to help you conquer Shengjing!"
When he said these words, I heard my heart beating, and even Yangchu and Miaoyan's faces showed a look of shock.
Although I had known for a long time that he wanted to unite with the Iron Cavalry King, it was still very shocking to hear these words coming out of his mouth.
You know, this is not an ordinary alliance.
After this joint battle, the grassland will change and even the overall situation of the entire Central Plains.
The world will change because of this!
I held my breath and listened to the reaction on that side.
Of course, the Iron Cavalry King had long guessed that Pei Yuanhao would tell him like this, but how was his reaction?
There was a sudden silence, and there was no sound after a long time. Pei Yuanhao calmed down after saying those words, without any intention of urging, as if he wanted to give the other party enough time to think.
It should be said that he is very confident and confident that the Iron Cavalry King will agree to him.
After a long time, I heard the Iron Cavalry King say slowly: "The benefits given by His Majesty the Emperor are indeed very attractive."
Pei Yuanhao seemed to chuckle.
The Iron Cavalry King said, "Then what are we going to do?"
"If the horse market in the border that I just talked about with the king, I hope to see it reappear in Dongzhou after the event."
I raised my eyebrows slightly.
I have to say that since Pei Yuanxiu forced him to leave the capital, he has changed a lot. If it were in the past, he would not have negotiated with others like this, and the atmosphere of negotiation would not have been so harmonious. But now, he has really changed a lot.
Such negotiations with the Iron Cavalry King have actually become a deal, a mutually beneficial transaction, and how many people can refuse it?
only--
The Iron Cavalry King was silent for a moment, and then said, "Of course, I am happy to reopen the border city. However, the request made by His Majesty the Emperor is actually profitable for both of us. Do you just want this?"
“…”
"I think it's not that simple."
Pei Yuanhao smiled again, but this time his smile sounded a little deeper. He slowly said, "The king's eyes are like torch."
"Tell me, what else do you want?"
"The king should know that Dongzhou has now been occupied by Xie Houqi's men. Whether it is my people or yours, if you want to go to the capital, you will be blocked in that place."
"good."
"I hope the king can send troops to take down Dongzhou at this time and open up the road to the capital."
I gasped.
I have imagined many requests that Pei Yuanhao would make, and even imagined that Shengjing's forces would ask for a share of the pie, but I didn't expect that he would make this request.
That's right, since Shengjing and Pei Yuanxiu joined forces, the situation in the entire northern land has been very complicated. On the one hand, Pei Yuanxiu has to provide Shengjing with what they need, and on the other hand, he also thinks that they need their help and is penetrated by them. The place in Dongzhou is a barrier north of the capital and has been completely controlled by Xie Houqi's men.
If Pei Yuanhao wants to counterattack, it will take a long process to fight from anywhere else, and he will even lose his troops and generals in this process. However, if he opens the road from north to south and opens up the Dongzhou road, he will not be far from the capital.
Unexpectedly, he actually hit the spotlight here.
Let the Iron Cavalry King fight the people of Xie Houqi. Although Xie Houqi is cunning, the Iron Cavalry King is his elder. To be precise, the Iron Cavalry Army who is rampant on the grassland should be more than enough to deal with him.
It is a good move to leverage the force, but it depends on whether the Iron Cavalry King is willing to borrow it.
Sure enough, the Iron Cavalry King smiled and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor is good at using this move, so that I can open up the road in Dongzhou."
Pei Yuanhao said: "I, don't I also want to help the king win the Victory Capital?"
"Then I ask you, if you win Shengjing, no matter what the result is, Shengjing will be under your control; but if I open up Dongzhou, what are the benefits for me?"
“…”
"Dongzhou is nothing to me."
“So, this is a deal.”
“…”
"For us, no party has any losses to win over Dongzhou."
"Yes, this is a deal, but this deal is not fair."
"Oh? How do you see it?"
"Although you need Dongzhou and I need Shengjing, don't forget that if you win Shengjing and don't hand it over to me, Shengjing will be useful to you; but the Dongzhou I hold in my hand is useless."
“…”

I once again sighed inwardly that the Iron Cavalry King was smart. Although this man was a brave and good general, his mind was indeed moving very quickly. When making a transaction, too many people first saw how much profit they could make, but often ignored the loss if the transaction was not successful. He was able to consider taking a step back in such a tempting situation, which shows that he was very calm.
At this time, Yangchu seemed to have suddenly realized it. He nodded gently and murmured: "So that's it."
Miaoyan on the side seemed to understand but she could feel this game, and she looked at me nervously.
I made a gesture to her "please be restless".
I think Pei Yuanhao must have considered this matter before proposing this transaction. He came for success, not for failure.
After a while of silence, Pei Yuanhao smiled and said, "The Iron Cavalry King really wants to make me look at you with admiration, but I didn't expect it."
The Iron Cavalry King smiled faintly: "If you think that people on the grassland only know how to shed horses and stock them, or ride horses and hunt, then you might be really wrong."
"I want to get closer to the king."
"Yeah?"
"The king just said, if I don't give it to you after I take Shengjing, Shengjing will be beneficial to me, but the king has ignored one thing: You are on this side of Shengjing, and there is a king on that side."
Iron-faced king.
Speaking of this, I felt his voice tremble slightly. After all, when it comes to this person, it will inevitably remind him of the Queen Mother. I think, maybe even the Iron Cavalry King was a little stagnant at this time.
Sure enough, both of them were quiet for a while.
After a while, Pei Yuanhao spoke again, his voice had returned to calm, and he said, "You two formed an alliance to attack Shengjing. If I won Shengjing and didn't hand it over, how could he tolerate it?"
The Iron Cavalry King suddenly sneered: "How could he not tolerate it?"
“…”
“…”
A brief silence appeared in the big tent over there.
The Iron Cavalry King continued, "No matter what, you are still her child, and she is even willing to die to protect you. I know my brother so well. He loves his sister so much, how could he do anything to you after she leaves?"
“…”
"Will he really attack you?"
“…”
"Your Majesty, you two are still relatives after all. I heard from the people of Central Plains that they often say, "Brothers who fight tigers and father and sons will fight, and there is a relative who is connected with you."
Pei Yuanhao did not speak immediately, but was silent for a long time before saying softly: "I cannot refute this sentence of the king."
“…”
"That's right, there is a queen mother between me and the Iron-faced King."
“…”
"The king wants to doubt this, I have nothing to say."
I immediately became a little anxious when I saw Yangchu next to me. Obviously, if there is no further solution, the negotiation will not be completed.
As time passed by little by little, for some reason, my heartbeat became heavier and heavier. The feeling was like when I walked into Nangong Lizhu's tent.
It seems that there is something dangerous, even terrible, that is going to happen in front of my eyes.
I subconsciously clenched my fists. Because of the excessive force, the blue veins on the back of my hand also raised slightly. At this time, Miaoyan, who was standing beside me, reached out to hold my hand and patted the back of my hand comfortably.
I looked down at her and suddenly felt a light flashing in my mind.
At this moment, the voice of the Iron Cavalry King came from the big tent next to him: "Then, does Your Majesty really stop saying anything?"
Pei Yuanhao remained silent: "King, I just said that I actually want to get close to the King."
"To get close, you must always have a connection. The connection between Your Majesty and the Iron-faced King is your mother. So who is your connection with this king?"
"Who do you think it is?"
