Zhu Su pretended to be indifferent and unfolded his folding fan to cover up his ugly face. He felt a little sweat begin to form on his forehead uncontrollably.
I placed too much trust in the information I got from history books. Since he knew that the other party was Yesudier, he became even more confident that Wala would definitely accept his proposal.
After all, in history, Yesudier was very cruel and impatient, killing the emperor of the Northern Yuan Dynasty with a bowstring. Zhu Su can be absolutely sure that this person has extremely deep ambition and hatred for Yuanting in his heart.
Therefore, I was satisfied that this person could be used by the Ming Dynasty.
However, Zhu Su forgot that the Oara people, who were far away from the hinterland of the Central Plains and always lived according to ancient traditions, still retained another barbarian nature that they had in the era of Mongolian invasions.
That is, compared to trading equally.
They are more accustomed to robbing!
"...How about the King of the Ming Dynasty?" Yesudie'er was very satisfied that he had regained the initiative in the negotiation. He tapped the table with his rough fingers and looked at Zhu Su proudly.
"Of course, you can also choose to fight us directly here, as I just said. If we lose, you can cut off our heads, but Wala has lost me as the leader, and also lost you. The value of Ming Dynasty’s utilization.”
"...Wala, it's a bit bloody." Zhu Su glanced at Ye Sudie'er.
"You guys too." Yesudier stared back at Zhu Su.
There seemed to be sparks between the eyes of the two.
Zhu Su's mind was racing at the same time. Could it be that he really wanted to try to kill Ye Sudieer here? Although I believe in the strength of the Ming army soldiers, the number of both sides is equal and they are in the same camp. There is no way to play any tricks at all. They can only fight head-on, which will definitely cause a huge number of sacrifices.
Moreover, is it really good to kill Yesudier? Yesudier's role in history was that of the person who killed the Northern Yuan Emperor when he was on the run. If he kills Ye Sudie'er at this time, when Ming Dynasty breaks through the Royal Court of Bei Yuan in the future, Emperor Bei Yuan will continue to fight against Ming Dynasty in another place... How much more manpower and material resources does Ming Dynasty need to invest in destroying Yuan Dynasty?
However, what Yesudier said is right. If Wala invaded the Ming Dynasty and did not fight the Ming army head-on, but looted everywhere, it could also increase its strength. As long as when General Xu Da's army arrives, he will withdraw from the pass without hesitation with the looted property and population.
Anyway, with Nahachu and Shanyang Wanhu behind them, Yesudier wouldn't care about the lives of Nahachu and Azasili.
Unless... I can make Yesudier believe that he doesn't have time to launch an army and plunder. The Ming Dynasty's army will soon defeat Nahachu and others...
Thinking of this, Zhu Su suddenly felt a headache. If there is a clever plan to retreat the enemy immediately, I will not organize an army to hold Naha Chu here, waiting for General Xu Da to arrive... The current situation in Ji Town, Na Ha Chu, Azasili, and the Ming army I have rehearsed the situation of the three parties a thousand times, and there is no room for any strategy.
Um? wrong.
Zhu Su suddenly thought of something, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he stared at Yesudier in front of him.
The situation has changed. There are not only three parties in Ji Town now.
With the addition of Yesudier, the leader of Wala, the number of forces now reaches all directions!
"Hahahahahahaha." Without any warning, Zhu Su suddenly started to laugh up to the sky, as if he had thought of something extremely funny. His laughter was so sudden that even Zhu Di, who was sitting next to him, was startled.
Not to mention the person opposite, Yesudier, was even more puzzled by the sudden smile. He always felt that the other person was laughing at what he had just said. He slapped the table: "Why are you laughing?"
"Hehehehe, I laugh at these Walas people's short-term strategy. You, Sudie'er, are also very young. You said such ridiculous things and you actually thought you had control of the situation and were smug." Zhu Su shook the folding fan lightly and felt that it was a pity for him. It's not a feather fan, and it's not wearing a turban on its head.
"If you Wala really dare to enter the pass and plunder, not only will you not be able to grab any property, but you will definitely suffer disaster! By then, the shame of your ancestors will not be wiped out, and you will become a prodigal son. For hundreds of years, Ali has not All the strength that I have accumulated will be destroyed by your hands!"
"Hmph, that's a bluff." Yesudie'er snorted angrily upon hearing this. "You, the Ming Dynasty, have too much time to take care of yourself. How dare you speak so wildly? I have investigated it. It will take at least a month for your general Xu Da to arrive here."
"One month... is enough for me to get out of this situation!"
"But Naha's defeat is imminent. Without him to bear the thunder for you, are you sure that you, Wala, will confront me head-on?" Zhu Su said calmly.
"...What?" Yesudie'er was stunned, and the Wala nobles were also stunned. Even on the Ming side, Zhu Di, Zhang Dingbian, Wu Ting and others were stunned for a moment, and then looked at Zhu Su. After a moment, Yesudier came back to his senses and said angrily: "Impossible! Although Naha Chu was slightly defeated by you, his and the King of Liao's combined troops still have nearly 200,000..."
"On the surface, this is indeed the case." Zhu Su's face remained calm and he spoke slowly:
"But who told you that King Aza of Liao would side with Naha if he lost his position?"
"!"
The whole place was silent! There was a longer silence than before. Yesudier thought about it for a moment, and then his expression changed drastically: "Could it be that you...you convinced the Liao King Aza Shili?"
"No, impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"Aza Shili came here under the order of the Royal Court of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. How could it be possible...to communicate with you openly and secretly..."
"Didn't you also obey the order of the Beiyuan Royal Court and let Wala gather at Yumuchuan?" Zhu Su shook his folding fan lightly with a mocking look on his face. "Now, I am not sitting at this negotiation table with this king."
"He, Aza Shili, is not a loyal minister of the Yuan Court, so why can't he secretly surrender to me, the Ming Dynasty. As for the orders of the Northern Yuan Court... why have you people ever cared about it?"
He blinked at Yesudier: "Your King of Liao is actually from my Ming Dynasty."
"..." Yesudier was speechless for a moment. The prince of the Ming Dynasty was right. Azasili was the same as Wala today, only superficially surrendering to the royal court. Nowadays, almost all the powerful tribes on the grassland are inseparable from the declining royal court. He knows this very well.
If there are enough interests, it is not impossible for Aza to favor the Ming Dynasty.
In the past few days, Nahachu continuously sent troops to harass the Ming army's camp. However, the Shanyang Ten Thousand Households led by Aza Shili were always stationed far away and did not go to war. He looked like he was conserving his strength.
Could it be that what the prince of Ming Dynasty said is true...
"If you really convinced Azasili, tell me what benefits you promised them..." Yesudier thought for a long time, then raised his head and said.
"No comment." Zhu Su flatly refused. "Wala is Wala, and Shanyang Wanhu is Shanyang Wanhu. It is impossible for us to reveal each other's secret agreement to a third party."
"But." Zhu Su changed the subject. "You are both tribes on the grassland. If you can secretly cooperate with each other, you will definitely cause greater casualties to Yuanting."
"If you, Wala, agree to accept my support from Da Ming and obey Daming's orders at critical moments... I, Daming, can help build a bridge between Wala and Shanyang Ten Thousand Houses."
"How about we let you cooperate with each other and grow together on the grassland...?"
Zhu Su smiled extremely sincerely.
