"In my dream, this brat has killed tens of thousands of our soldiers. I will use my last breath to cut him into pieces!"
"If you kill my Daxia soldiers, what will happen if you kill our Xingluo people?" Liu Mo said not to be outdone.
"Then they deserve to die!" Yang Yizhi said angrily.
"Ha, what a coincidence, those idiots from your Zhou Dynasty should also die!"
At this time, the angry Liu Mo wanted to bite him with his mouth.
But at this moment, Tang Qingfeng said something astonishing: "As far as I know, Prince Xiao, sending troops to Xingluo this time was not your original intention, right?"
"How do you know?" Yang Yizhi asked in surprise.
But just for a moment, Liu Mo broke free from his hand and punched him twice.
"Liu Mo, I must kill you!"
Tang Qingfeng was a little dumbfounded, "Brother Liu, wait a minute!" He said, "There is civil strife in Daxia, right?"
"What do you want to say?" Liu Mo stopped.
"I want to tell you two that this war was all started by the eldest prince of Daxia. Do you believe it?"
"What?" Liu Mo and Liu Mo asked in unison again.
Tang Qingfeng cut off a corner of his clothes, wrapped the wound, and then continued to add: "As far as Tang knows, the sudden death of the Emperor of Great Xia is inseparable from the eldest prince.
The Emperor Weiguang of Great Xia was already dissatisfied with the current prince's character and actions. For this reason, he had the intention to abolish the crown prince and establish a sixth prince instead. "
That's why he was poisoned! Liu Mo thought to himself.
"The six princes, the eldest prince, and the prince each control the military power of Daxia. Among these three, the sixth prince has the largest number of troops and is also the strongest. For this reason, the eldest prince conspired with the prince to secretly communicate with the Great Zhou Emperor, that is, Prince Xiao, your royal grandfather.
He was ordered to send troops to Xingluo and Jiangyuan Town to contain the Sixth Prince's troops. There is no need for Tang to explain its purpose. "
Taking advantage of the territorial security of Daxia, suppress the Sixth Prince in order to successfully ascend the throne!
As an enemy, the Zhou Dynasty had such a good opportunity to send troops to capture the territory of Daxia and occupy Xiangshan and other new salt production areas. Why not do it.
But neither party expected to encounter such a tough opponent as Liu Mo.
"Has the eldest prince reached any agreement with the Zhou Dynasty?" Liu Mo asked again.
"Cut the entire Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces and the Zhou Dynasty!" Tang Qingfeng replied, "This is all Tang knows."
The eldest prince, the prince! I'm drafting it!
To cede territory for the sake of the throne?
"Having said so much, what do you want?" Yang Yizhi asked.
"You two shake hands and make peace!" Tang Qingfeng said.
"Never!" Liu Mo and Liu Mo reached an agreement again.
Tang Qingfeng smiled, "The two of you are fighting to the death on the Xingluo battlefield, but you are making wedding clothes for the eldest prince?" He said, "How about you two quit fighting and exchange for a hundred years of peace between the two countries?"
"This guy invaded our Daxia again and again, peace?" Liu Mo sneered.
"Prince Xiao twice developed new salt for you!" Tang Qingfeng told him. "Let's do this, Brother Liu, how about you hand over the method of making new salt, and Prince Xiao will withdraw his troops immediately?"
"What about his imperial grandfather?" Liu Mo asked again.
"The purpose must be the same as Prince Xiao's."
"This..." Liu Mo fell into deep thought.
"Why, Brother Liu wants to waste time with the Zhou Dynasty in Xingluo?" Tang Qingfeng asked, "Without you, the 'Military God' of Great Xia, the Sixth Prince would not necessarily be the opponent of the First Prince!
And your wives and concubines in Rongcheng, the sword has no eyes, if something happens to you..."
To be honest, Liu Mo was tempted after hearing this.
"Will this bastard just give up?" he asked.
"Shut your stinky mouth!" Yang Yizhi roared, "I can't wait to bite off your flesh in one bite."
However, Liu Mo noticed that when he said this, a lot of murderous intent had dissipated.
"After killing Brother Liu." Tang Qingfeng said again, "The Sixth Prince lost in this battle. His two brothers are militants! Dazhou and Daxia are afraid that they will start fighting again and fight to the death!"
At this time, Yang Yizhi was silent.
"How about you two stop fighting?"
There was a sound of horse hooves from behind, and the cavalry from both sides had arrived.
"Stop everyone!" Yang Yizhi roared, then turned his head and looked at Liu Mo, "Liu Mo, stop the person calling you."
"Stop, stop!" Liu Mo also ordered.
Then, the two of them let go of each other's hands and struggled to get up. Their bodies were covered in blood and mud from the waist down, their clothes were disheveled, and their faces were red. This scene really looks like a scene of catching an adulterer in bed.
"I agree, truce!" Yang Yizhi finally announced.
On the snow-covered Xingluo grassland, a long table made of original pine wood was set up and covered with a tablecloth.
The personal guards of Yang Yizhi and Liu Mo stood guard outside the door, while the two of them led their generals to negotiate in the camp.
Daxia military doctors bandaged their wounds, but the effect was not obvious. Yang Yizhi's spear penetrated so deeply that he felt unbearable pain.
"Open the border for trade, this is fine!" Liu Mo announced, "Sui coins? Will your Zhou Dynasty give me Daxia?"
"Are you kidding me? Please compensate me Da Zhou!"
"No need to talk!" Liu Mo refused immediately.
"Let's discuss this later!" Tang Qingfeng suggested.
"The next one, cede territory? Absolutely not!" Liu Mo reiterated again.
"Then how do I know that the method of making new salt you gave me is true?" Yang Yizhi retorted. "[Desalinated seawater concentrate->filtration->electrodialysis->concentrated brine->refined salt evaporation].
I, Da Zhou, do not have the strength to create new salt according to your method. "
Ha, you actually know this! Liu Mo thought to himself, the prince must have sold it to you.
"Xiangshan County, I only want Xiangshan County!" Yang Yizhi insisted, "I, Dazhou, can travel by sea here, and I will not set foot on your Daxia land!"
"No!" Liu Moyi said sternly, "After I help the Sixth Prince seize the throne, how about I personally go to your Zhou Dynasty and teach you step by step?"
Yang Yizhi sneered, "If you turn your back and refuse to admit it when the time comes, Liu Mo, what will I do?"
"I, Liu Mo, seem to be a person who doesn't keep his word?"
"You two, what do I think of this?" Tang Qingfeng interrupted, "If Brother Liu breaks the contract, someone from Tang will personally kidnap him and take him to the Zhou Dynasty!"
Liu Mo suddenly raised his head, "Are you serious?" he thought to himself.
Yang Yizhi fell into silence. After a long time, he finally spoke, "Brother Tang, I can trust you!"
Liu Mo frowned, "I just said that casually! If he creates salt and refuses to admit it, wouldn't I give it to him in vain?"
"If you want to regret it, then keep fighting!" Yang Yizhi said, his expression changing.
What the hell can I say? "make a deal!"
The peace talks ended perfectly.
Liu Mo knew that Yang Yizhi would accept the peace talks. On the one hand, he really wanted new salt. On the other hand, Liu Mo's commanding ability exceeded Yang Yizhi's imagination, not to brag.
If they continue to fight, the Zhou Dynasty will definitely lose troops and generals. As an excellent commander, of course he knows that the highest level of the art of war is to preserve one's own strength.
For the sake of his subordinates and the Zhou Dynasty, he had to make concessions.
On the other hand, Liu Mo, if he could not fight with such a pervert and still have his hands free to attack these two bastards, the other prince, why not do it?
The most important thing is that if the sixth prince fails, his whole family will not survive!
He wrote down the "New Salt Manufacturing Method" and handed it over to Yang Yizhi, who then got on his horse and led the remaining troops to evacuate.
When leaving, he couldn't help but turn around and showed a strange smile towards Liu Mo, but said nothing.
"You still want to kill me!" Liu Mo could see that look in his eyes.
For this reason, the second "New Salt War" came to an end.
In this war, Liu Mo led the Xingluo Allied Forces to win three major victories in a row and annihilated more than 40,000 elite soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty.
On the other hand, the Xingluo and Daxia coalition suffered only over 10,000 casualties, and Daxia only lost more than 700 riders. It can be said to be a huge victory.
At night, thousands of warriors hugged each other, singing and dancing on the Xingluo Grassland.
The twilight is getting darker on the grassland, and a hook-shaped moon rises from the horizon.
Suddenly the sound of drumming was heard outside the camp. Zhuolun walked into the tent, took Liu Mo's hand and said, "The new moon is coming out, Mo'er, let's go out."
When the two came outside the camp, they saw a large fire burning on the ground. Xingluo warriors were coming from all directions and surrounding the fire. Some people around were roasting cattle and sheep, and some were playing piano and music. It was a joyful scene.
Amidst the sound of the piano, singing and laughter are everywhere. Xing Luo, who was in charge of cooking, distributed fragrant meat, plump black sausage, pies, various fruits and other foods to everyone.
Each person holds a small bowl carved from salt rock in his hand, rubs the barbecue in the salt bowl, and starts eating. After a while, the new moon was in the sky, and the joy was even brighter. Many Star Luo warriors danced around the fire.
Liu Mo has never encountered such a scene of overwhelming joy and singing.
But he had no appetite, couldn't swallow anything, and couldn't feel happy.
Because after this night, he would leave and rush to Jizhou to support the Sixth Prince.
"Ayina, forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye!" He muttered silently in his heart, "May your mother and son be safe."
Liu Mo couldn't go to Yirle, firstly because Yirle was not on his way, and secondly, he was afraid that he would not be able to leave after seeing Ayina.
Suddenly, the music stopped and then played louder. When he looked up, Tang Qingfeng had come to him, "Brother Liu, I have to leave for a while." He said, "I want to take Tang Die Healing.”
Liu Mo smiled, "Thank you, Brother Tang, for protecting me during this time," he said, "Is Tang Die okay?"
"It's not optimistic, he might die!" Tang Qingfeng announced.
Thinking of Tang Die, Liu Mo couldn't help but feel sad. "She helped me so much, so much! After this time, no matter whether she can survive or not, her mission has been completed, and I will never see her again."
"Is there anything you want to tell Tang?" Tang Qingfeng asked with a smile.
"Cherish it all the way!" Liu Mo said.
"Hahaha, definitely!" After Tang Qingfeng finished speaking, he flashed and disappeared into the night.
Under the dim moonlight, Liu Mo looked at the singing and dancing Xingluo people, and was filled with emotion for a moment, "Perhaps, in the future, I can take Lin Shiqi and the others... to settle in Xingluo?"
Soon the music suddenly changed, the melody became softer, and there was a buzzing in his ears. He suddenly fell into a trance, and suddenly a hand gently placed on his shoulder, "Mo'er, you really don't want to go back to Yierle with me?"
It was Zoram who spoke, and he could hear it without looking up.
"Yeah!" Liu Mo responded. "I have more important things to do!"
"You have a saying in Daxia, telling men to aim in all directions!" Zhuolun said, "Don't worry, as long as I, Zhuolun, are here, I will protect Ayina and the child in her belly. That is my grandson!"
"Thank you, father-in-law!" Liu Mo smiled at him.
Then, the two chatted for a long time about the moonlight.
The next day, before dawn, Liu Mo led the remaining cavalry and left quietly.
It was winter when we arrived, but it was early spring and April when we left, and everything was recovering.
After walking for about ten days, when he was about to enter Jizhou, Liu Mo suddenly spotted a group of cavalry.
The visitor held high the banner of Daxia's nine-clawed golden dragon. When he saw Liu Mo, he dismounted from his horse and saluted, saying, "The Sixth Prince wants you to leave for Jianglin City immediately!"
