Li Huaixiu blinked and seemed to believe Ye Qingcheng's explanation, because he had received information that King Bohai was seriously ill before, and at that time he had thought about taking the opportunity to attack Bohai and seize some resources. But later it was settled due to many factors. As for whether the princes of the Bohai Kingdom really fought with each other, he didn't know, but based on his understanding of the Central Plains and the degree of Chineseization of the Bohai Kingdom, his intuition told him that this was very possible.
If it were him, if his father was the Khitan chief, and now he was terminally ill, and several of his other brothers also wanted to compete for the position of chief, then he would have to find a way to kill the other brothers no matter what. The grassland has always been about strength. Although the Bohai Kingdom has a higher level of education and may not be as barbaric as them, it is the position of the majestic leader of a country, and there is no guarantee that these princes will not be tempted.
Ye Qingcheng said that this lie was really clever. The combination of falsehood and reality made it difficult to tell the truth from the false. Naturally, a rough man like Li Huaixiu was even more confused and could only believe it.
"I see, I'm still wondering. I haven't received the rest of the money yet. Why are the brothers from the Tang Sect missing? It turns out that you took on more than one hire this time. Zhi Zhen, this industry is really hugely profitable. , if I, Li Huaixiu, didn't have this ability, I would have considered joining your Tang Sect. Just a few middle- and lower-class disciples can run to the northern border and kill a few people, and they can earn thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars. This kind of The ability to make money is really terrible. If we, the Khitans, can cultivate killers or assassins like your Tang Sect, then why should we be enemies with a behemoth like the Tang Dynasty?"
"What the chief said is wrong. The strength of our Tang Sect has been accumulated through the hard work of countless generations. It cannot be achieved overnight. Moreover, our Tang Sect is not a killer organization. It is just because of the great power of the Tang Sect. Some people are good at using hidden weapons, so there is a special branch to accept this kind of private work. It can not only train the disciples under it, but also make a rich income. If something happens to people like us, the main hall will I won’t admit it. If anyone of us rebels against the sect, or breaks serious sect rules and wants to escape, there will be high-level disciples who will be responsible for chasing and killing them. Their strength is so terrifying that even I don’t dare to confront them head-on. There are even worshipers from hall masters that I have never seen before. It is said that their strength is far superior to these high-level disciples. As for what extent they can reach, I don’t know."
What Ye Qingcheng said was not something he made up to scare Li Huaixiu, but the real thing. It was what the puppet insect told him before. The host he was parasitizing did not have a high status in the Tang Sect, so he did not know much about the information. There are many, and they don’t even know any of those middle-to-high-level existences.
Although it sounds scary, Ye Qingcheng is not really afraid that the Tang Sect will cause trouble for him later. For a mere mortal sect, the most powerful ones are probably the cultivators they worship, and at most they are immortal-level beings. , even he is enough to deal with such a guy.
But Li Huaixiu was really scared, because Ye Qingcheng looked like he was bragging, but he was serious. After getting along with each other for the past two days, he also knew that this guy was not the kind of person who could joke, but was serious in speech. That kind of thing, then what he said is at least half true. Doesn't that mean that the strength of Tang Sect is simply beyond imagination? However, he just joked that he wanted to train killers, which was just a joke. If he really wanted to do this, not to mention that the Thirty-Six Division would not agree, I am afraid that the Tang Sect would not sit idly by and do nothing.
"Since the other brothers of the Tang Sect have already gone to Bohai Kingdom, you can go with peace of mind. As the chief of the Thirty-Six Khitan Tribes, I, Li Huaixiu, naturally cannot break my promise. Besides, I want to If you don't believe me, you can just take my head. I promise here that once this battle is over, I will definitely send the remaining money to Tangmen in Sichuan. Let's see if this is feasible. ?”
"Where does the great chief come from? Do you think he will win this time? If the great chief loses, then where will we get the rest of the reward?" Huan Chenyu sneered. He was acting as a role in this negotiation. A character who specializes in playing blackface.
Li Huaixiu's face was slightly angry, but he quickly regained his composure. Before the war, it was most taboo for someone to make such remarks. How dare you tell him what happened after the defeat before the battle even started? If it had been anyone else, he would have drawn out his waist knife and chopped him long ago.
"Where did you two start from talking about this? The Tang Army camp is currently in the chaos of division. At night, I relaxed my vigilance. I controlled the entire Xi Qi coalition army, and used the Xi tribe as the vanguard. In addition, I have the ability to make people The cavalry is a sharp weapon for crossing the river. The winning rate in this battle must be 80 to 90%."
Ye Qingcheng glanced at Li Huaixiu, and finally felt disappointed with him. He originally thought that Li Huaixiu was really a very powerful character, strategizing, and unique among the Khitan people, but now it seems that he is just a common man. Before he had any information about the specific situation, he had already concluded that the winning rate was 80% to 90%. This was no different from Zhao Kuo who was talking about war on paper back then. Or maybe he believed too much in himself and the Xi Qi Alliance. .
"I'm sorry, Great Chief, I cannot agree with your opinion. Any war cannot rely on absolute advantage. There are many examples in history of turning defeat into victory. If you fail, our Tang Sect will probably have to go to your house. Can Mo's tooth account beg for money? This way, it can be regarded as our compromise. After this battle begins, the two of us will hide near you. We will not care about the direction of the entire battle, but once your life is threatened If it’s dangerous, the two of us will naturally help.”
Of course, Ye Qingcheng knew that Li Huaixiu was already very arrogant at this moment and wanted to break into the Tang Army camp directly. His only worry was that there were some extremely powerful beings in the Tang Army, like him. As long as he made such a promise, Li Huaixiu's courage will naturally be relaxed.
"Okay! It's a deal, you two can't cheat." As expected, after hearing his words, Li Huaixiu suddenly smiled. Just kidding, with two Tang Sect masters helping him, who else can hurt him on this battlefield? Although it was a pity that these two people could not be used by him, it was enough to satisfy him.
