Chapter 272 Can You Be King Without Thick Skin?

And Wanyan Pingqiu only agreed to make a verbal contract with Xiao Chen, it seems that he doesn't want to leave words, this coincides with Xiao Chen's idea, because he also doesn't want to be bound by such paperwork.

In this way, both parties will have room to adapt to emergencies in the future.

What Xiao Chen wanted was not a paper contract, but the attitude of Wanyan Pingqiu and the others.

Wanyan, Pingqiu agreed, and the leaders of Huyanlei, Gaihe, Buhe and several other small tribes also readily agreed.

As long as Xiao Chen can fulfill the covenant, they will be able to give an explanation to their tribal people when they go back.

In other words, the initiative is actually in Xiao Chen's hands now, but this is also a kind of pressure for Xiao Chen.

This verbal covenant with the northern Xinjiang tribe is a double-edged sword.

If you can hold it firmly in your hand, you will be able to play freely in Yanyun County. If you are not careful, you will hurt yourself.

It's still a gamble after all.

This gamble started when Li Wanjiang sent him to Yanyun County. He used the few chips in his hand to maneuver in this gamble controlled by many hands, and now he has gradually taken the initiative.

The curtain of the stage that belonged to him has been slowly opened, Xiao Chen stood behind the stage and poked his head, ready to make his debut as a bird!

The confrontation between the two sides over the next few days was less tense.

According to the agreement, Wanyan Pingqiu and the others retreated in batches first to make way for Wu Luolan, Xiao Chen also transported the crossbow carts, food and grass and other supplies first, and the infantry basically evacuated.

Everyone has abided by and implemented the agreement between each other very well, which can be regarded as a good start.

But it was time to part.

The setting sun was like blood, and the north wind was whistling, whistling the big flag on the hillside.

Wu Luolan sat on the ground with her arms around her knees, staring blankly at a distant mountain in the south, which was in the direction of Niutou Mountain in Yanyun County.

"Are you still thinking about Yanyun County?" Xiao Chen came lightly, sat beside her, and grabbed her little hand naturally. Wu Luolan didn't break away, but let him hold it, her own His hands were cold, but Xiao Chen's hands were warm.

"Well, what I couldn't get, you got." Wu Luolan still seemed unwilling.

"Look at what you said, isn't mine yours? From now on, you can go to Yanyun County to find me anytime and anywhere. Of course, it's best not to bring your Xianbo cavalry with you." Xiao Chen said.

"Such a big place, with just such a few people, how can you defend it?" Wu Luolan suddenly smiled, showing two small canine teeth, "Do you want me to bring someone over to help you?"

"Thank you, no need, to use our Huaxia allegorical saying, weasels come into the house and come for nothing. Most of the time when they come, they want to steal chickens and dogs." Xiao Chen laughed.

"Hmph, just say that you lured wolves into the house!" Wu Luolan said angrily, "Don't forget that the two of us made a life-and-death covenant, and we are all brothers now, aren't we?"

"Brothers will settle accounts!" Xiao Chen's tone softened a little, "In short, without my permission, none of your soldiers are allowed to cross the border, otherwise our brothers will not be able to do it."

"Do you really want to be the king of Yanyun County?" Wu Luolan asked.

"That's almost the same, let me tell you, Ang, during the period when I was stationed in Yanyun County, no soldiers from your northern border or soldiers from Dazhou can come in without my permission, and I will beat anyone who comes in! "Xiao Chen raised his hand and slashed in the air, expressing that he is not used to anyone now.

"Then what if it's Rose's soldier?" Wu Luolan asked suddenly.

"He foreign devil has to dare!" Xiao Chen put his arms around Wu Luolan's shoulders, "Besides, if he dares to harass me, can you just ignore him? I will definitely lead your army to fight for me , beat them to the ground."

"Wow, you have such a thick skin!" Wu Luolan couldn't help laughing.

Just now you clamored not to allow Xianbo soldiers to enter the country, and now you have asked me to lead an army to help, you are so embarrassed to say it, you!

"Can you be a king if you are not thick-skinned?" Xiao Chen was not ashamed, but rather proud.

"No matter what danger you are in, I am willing to help you, but I am afraid that there is nothing I can do." Wu Luolan said softly.

"It's all about human effort." Xiao Chen said, "I just talked about Ross, do you know that their current king is a woman? It's multiplied many times over...it's amazing."

"We also have a female emperor in China, named Wu Zetian. During her reign, she knew people and made good use of them, appointed people on their merits, enforced the rule of law, and emphasized agriculture...During her reign as emperor, China was unprecedentedly strong, and this woman is really amazing." Xiao Chen also admired this female emperor very much.

"Hehe, you don't have to go around the corner when you talk to me. I know what you want to say, but..." Wu Luolan sighed softly.

"But it's up to people." Xiao Chen really couldn't say it too bluntly, he paused and said, "Otherwise, don't go back, come with me to Yanyun County, let's do a great cause together."

Both of them knew well that this time Wu Luolan almost defied her father Tuhungu's royal order, and suffered heavy losses because of it.

And without his permission, he privately formed an alliance with Xiao Chen, both of which were challenging Tuhungu's authority.

So once she goes back, she may face severe punishment. Dismissal of military power is still a trivial matter, and her life may not be saved.

Because she has led troops since she was a child, and it has been many years since she was a child. She has considerable prestige in the army, and there are many generals who are loyal to her, such as Qiu Muling and A Luhuan.

So if Tu Hungu simply removed her military power, I'm afraid there will be great troubles in the future.

Only by killing her can her influence in the Xianbo army be completely eliminated.

In this kind of emperor's house, killing brothers and fathers, sons and daughters is nothing new, didn't Li Wanjiang also kill his own son?

Didn't Li Shimin, another generation of Mingjun, also kill his elder brother and younger brother, and imprison his father?

"I have to go back, otherwise I will have nothing. If I have nothing, then life will be meaningless." Urolan's eyes were filled with disappointment and unwillingness, as well as a touch of sadness.

It made Xiao Chen feel distressed.

She almost blurted out and asked her and her soldiers to stay in Yanyun County, but she swallowed it abruptly.

Because in the past two days, Zhuge Xiaosheng and Li Tanhua have already warned him seriously, please do not spoil our important affairs because of your affair with Wu Luolan!

None of the Xianbo cavalry can stay in Yanyun County!

Because you have already made a covenant with Wanyan Pingqiu, one of which is that all the Xianbo cavalry must be withdrawn, if you keep them, it will be a flagrant breach of the contract, and the consequences will be disastrous!
