tap! tap! tap…
With horseshoes forming in formation, 50,000 Huns cavalry finally arrived at Liaoyun Pass before dark after seven days of traveling.
As soon as they arrived at the gate of the pass, the gate of the pass was slowly opened, and a group of people greeted them with smiles.
Tila also dismounted and walked up with the people.
"Hahaha, Great Chanyu, I have heard of his name for a long time, but today I just got to meet him!"
The leader of this group of people who came out of the city to greet them was none other than Ding An.
Faced with Ding Antou's close behavior, Tila was not polite, but asked directly: "What the hell is your Ding family doing? I heard a few days ago that you would help me open the door to your Song Dynasty Bianjing." All the cities on the road allow us to drive straight into them. Is this true or false?
Why did your Ding family do what you did?
Are you, the Ding family, also from the Song Dynasty? "
To be honest, Tila was surprised when he received the news. The Ding family was actually willing to help them open all the cities on the way to Bianjing, the capital of the Song Dynasty. This news really shocked him.
Although this is not the first time that the Ding family has cooperated with the Huns, the most they can do is sell contraband to them and occasionally sell out some military intelligence about the Ding family's opponents.
There are very few cases where someone takes the initiative to respond like this, which makes Tila wonder if the Ding family has some conspiracy and conspiracy in this.
But if this matter is true, the benefits it can bring are so great that he is reluctant to give up. After confirming that the three cities of Yunzhou County cannot be defeated, Tila gritted his teeth and decided to take a gamble, so he immediately He led the army to bypass Yunzhou County and arrived outside the Liaoyun Pass.
Faced with Tila's doubts, Ding An did not answer him immediately. Instead, he stretched out his hand and moved half of his body, made a gesture of invitation, and then said:
"Don't worry, Great Chanyu. This is not the first time that you Huns have cooperated with our Ding family. Don't you know our credibility?
Since I promised to help the Huns enter the customs and drive directly to Bianjing, I will never go back on it.
Please ask the Great Chanyu to follow me into the customs for the specific details. We will discuss it in detail inside the customs. I can also show my kindness as a landlord and entertain the Great Chanyu well! "
Hearing this, Tila turned back and glanced at the army. Ding An immediately understood and promised:
"Don't worry, Chanyu. Your army can also go in without taking off their armor. Chanyu and all the Xiongnu warriors must have been exhausted these days, so they just happened to enter the pass to rest together. I will arrange it for you." There’s no need to worry.”
Knowing that the army could also enter, Tila was relieved, nodded and followed Ding An into the pass.
That night, the entire Liaoyun Pass was brightly lit. The Huns, who had been aggrieved for nearly half a month, were not good people. They were not honest after entering Liaoyun Pass. They started burning, killing and looting at Liaoyun Pass that day. The people in the pass suffered a great disaster, but the defenders of the pass did not care as long as the Xiongnu did not steal their heads.
As a result, that night, the entire Liaoyun Pass became a hell on earth. People's property was shot away, women were insulted in the street, and what's more, these Huns who had been holding back for a long time even killed old women in their sixties or seventies. Didn't let go.
After the whole night passed, the residential area of Liaoyun Pass turned into rubbish overnight, and the Huns who had been wreaking havoc all night regained their energy with satisfaction.
In the garrison mansion, Tila also learned from Ding An the reason why the Ding family did this.
The Emperor of the Song Dynasty used conspiracy and tricks to deceive the Tiger Hunting Army, the foundation of the Ding family. The Ding family felt that they had reached a dead end. The Emperor of the Song Dynasty would not let them go if they endured it any longer, so they simply did nothing. Without stopping, he set a trap with others and transferred the royal family's masters away.
He also caused trouble in the local area and transferred the imperial army from Bianjing, leaving the imperial army in Bianjing in its weakest state. He also used the Ding family's heritage over the years to gain control of some key cities. This Only then did they find cooperation with the Huns.
The Ding family has only one request, which is to let the Huns kill all the royal family of the Song Dynasty and destroy the existing power of the royal family, so that the Ding family can successfully usurp the throne.
As long as the Ding family takes the throne, their head Ding Nie promises to cede the entire Hedong County to the Huns, and will also open a mutual market with the Huns and sell to the Huns some supplies that the Song Kingdom does not sell to the Huns.
From now on, the Ding family and the Xiongnu will be friends for generations!
Tila agreed to these conditions. Although he had no intention of following the agreement, since he could deceive the Ding family and open the way for them, why not deceive him.
Tila thought this way. Once he captured Bianjing of the Song Dynasty and captured the royal family of the Song Dynasty, plus the troops he arranged to gather from Yumen Pass to enter the pass, he would be able to take over the entire Song Dynasty by cooperating internally and externally.
Let the Huns leave the harsh grassland, and the fertile land of the Central Plains will also become the land of their Huns.
As for the agreement with the Ding family?
Ho!
The last word is to have a big fist. If he had the opportunity to take all of it, why would he share it with the Ding family?
His appetite is huge!
Tila agreed to the proposal, and Ding An was also very happy.
As for whether the Huns would keep their promise in the end, he didn't care. The Huns had their own plans, so why didn't the Ding family do the same?
Now it's just that the big thing hasn't happened yet, so everyone has to exercise restraint. When it does happen, everyone will just use their own methods.
Both sides reached a phased cooperation with their own motives, and when they came out, their subordinates immediately came to report what happened last night, but Ding An waved his hands and felt it didn't matter.
It's just a small Liaoyun Pass. Just let the Xiongnu wreak havoc. They are nothing more than some untouchables. There is no need to ruin the relationship between the Ding family and the Xiongnu or ruin the Ding family's plans for them!
Tila also received the news, but when he saw the look on Ding An's face, he understood that this person probably didn't take the matter seriously, and nodded with satisfaction.
After the previous setbacks in attacking the three cities, the morale of the Huns army dropped a lot. Allowing the warriors below to indulge can effectively improve morale, which is also a good thing.
After reaching an agreement with the Ding family, the Huns rested at Liaoyun Pass for two more days, and after causing the people of Liaoyun Pass to suffer twice more, they began to move south with their people.
At first, Tila was still a little nervous, not knowing whether what the Ding family said was true or false.
But when the Xiongnu army came to Xining Mansion in Liaobei County, and after seeing Ma Denghe, the prefect of Xining, who was tied up at the open door, Tila finally believed in the sincerity of the Ding family.
The magistrate of Xining Prefecture, who was tied up and still struggling, was killed with a casual knife.
Kicking Ma Denghe's head to the side, Tila smiled ferociously, turned around and shouted at the army behind him:
"Warriors of the Huns, thank the Immortal Heaven for the gift, go! Kill! Rob! Go and do whatever you want!
Next, you will follow this Chanyu and wreak havoc in the land of the Song Dynasty and do whatever you want!
Glory belongs to the Huns! "
"Ho ho ho! Glory belongs to the Xiongnu! Long live the Changshengtian! Long live the Great Chanyu!"
Fifty thousand Huns cavalry shouted excitedly and poured into Xining Fucheng!
And their arrival is destined to be the beginning of disaster in Xining Mansion.
On the roadside, Ma Denghe's head was kicked alone once, and his eyes were lifeless as he watched the ferocious Huns step into the gate of Xining Fucheng one after another...
