Lu Dongzan is indeed an intelligent person. If not for the war between the two countries, it would be suitable for them to be friends. Lin Wanrong laughed heartily and said loudly: "Brother Lu is too kind with your praise. To tell the truth, among the Turks, the one I admire the most is Brother Lu. If not for the war, we can drink and chat together, that will be a joyful thing. "
"Sir Lin, your words have made Lu Dongzan extremely proud!" The Turk state advisor's face showed pride and joy: "If you want to drink and chat, Lu Dongzan will definitely accompany you. Furthermore, there will be an unexpected surprise for you! But for now, Lord should retreat from the edge of the Desert of Death. That place is a forbidden zone that even my most courageous Turk warrior does not dare to step into! Lu Dongzan is not willing to see the person he admires the most buried in the Sea of Death. "
Lin Wanrong chuckled: "Brother Lu means that I will retreat from the Sea of Death and wait for you to capture me? That's a pretty good plan! "
Lu Dongzan hurriedly shook his head: "Why would I capture you, Lord has misunderstood. You are the smartest person in China. In our Turks, there are not many who are better than you. What we Turks admire the most are the strong and the brave. You have used your intelligence, bravery and intelligence to prove that you are a true warrior. As long as you are willing to walk back from the edge of the Sea of Death, Lu Dongzan promises you that we Turks will treat you with respect. Whatever official position you want, Khan Pijia will bestow it to you! "
Any official position can be bestowed to me? The Turks really think highly of me. Lin Wanrong laughed heartily: "Brother Lu, I can really be any official position?!"
Seeing that he was tempted, Lu Dongzan happily nodded: "Any position is up to Lord to choose!"
"In that case, I want to be the Khan of your Turks. That should not be a problem?! "Lin Wanrong chuckled.
The Turks on the other side paled, all of them glaring at him and cursing at him.
Lu Dongzan awkwardly waved his hand to stop his subordinates' discussion: "Lord must be joking. It's a position under the Khan, and it's up to you to choose. "
Lin Wanrong laughed out loud and waved his hand. "That's boring. Brother Lu, you know my situation in China. My two wives are princesses, and my father-in-law is the current emperor. As long as I want to, I can do whatever I want in the imperial court of China. Why would I need you Turks to be controlled by others? Show some sincerity. Why don't you invite me to be the Khan? I can still consider it. Hehe. "
Sure enough, he was an arrogant Chinese. He had gone too far! The Hu behind Lu Dongzan loudly shouted. His anger was hard to suppress. The Turkic state teacher clenched his teeth and loudly said, "Lord Lin, Lu Dongzan cannot make a decision on this matter. The only thing I can guarantee is that as long as you have the ability, a miracle may happen! "
"Does that mean that I can't be the Khan now?!" Lin Wanrong shook his head and sighed. "What a pity, what a pity! Brother Lu. Looks like we'll have to meet on the battlefield!! "The Chinese man raised the steel blade in his hand with all his might, his tenacity evident.
Lu Dongzan looked at him and shook his head. "Lord, is there a need for this?! Behind you is the Sea of Death, and in front of you is the invincible Turkic cavalry. You have nowhere to go! I hope that Lord will reconsider! "
"There's no need to reconsider!" Lin Wanrong laughed and urged his horse forward. "Although I am not a righteous person, I know what I can do and what I cannot. The men of China would rather die standing than live kneeling! Brother Lu, don't you Turks like to duel? Very well, in the name of the compassionate Bodhisattva, I challenge you to a duel. Do you dare to accept?! "
Duel? Lu Dongzan looked at the two lonely men in front of Lin Wanrong, then at the tens of thousands of soldiers behind him. He laughed loudly and said, "Lord Lin, other than your outstanding intelligence, you are also very thick-skinned! Is there a need for a duel when you are already at death's door? Lu Dongzan is not such a fool! "
"Of course, Brother Lu, you are a smart man!" Lin Wanrong sighed and shook his head. "However, I do not agree with you saying that I am at death's door. At least, I have a very powerful chess piece that I have not used. "
"What chess piece?!" Lu Dongzan seemed to have thought of something and his expression changed.
Lin Wanrong took two steps forward and smiled. "Nothing, just a small golden sword! — Oh, Brother Lu, you should have received the golden sword right?! "
Lu Dongzan's eyes flashed and an exquisite curved sword appeared in his hand. It was beautiful and shiny. It was the golden sword that Crescent Moon cherished as much as her life. "Lord Lin, can you tell me where the master of the golden sword is now?!"
Lu Dongzan's eyes flashed and his expression was serious. There was nothing unusual about him. Lin Wanrong chuckled and said, "I can't tell you where she is right now. But she should be better off than me. At least she will not have to face so many open and hidden attacks! "
"That's good!" The Imperial Advisor nodded and said solemnly, "Lord Lin, Lu Dongzan can negotiate with you on one condition!"
"What condition?!" Lin Wanrong blinked.
"As long as you are willing to release the master of the golden sword," Lu Dongzan said solemnly, "swear in the name of the God of the Grasslands that we can let you step out of the grasslands safely!"
Step out of the grasslands safely? Lin Wanrong's heart skipped a beat. Lu Dongzan's first move was so extravagant. Just who was this Yu Jia?
"How about it?!" Lu Dongzan asked when he saw him in deep thought.
Lin Wanrong looked up at him and said with a smile, "Interesting. But, Brother Lu, you know that I am a businessman. I will not do anything that will make me lose money. This Miss Yu Jia should be selling for more than this price! "
What a good businessman. He actually sold Miss Yu Jia by weight. Seeing Lin Wanrong's sneaky smile, Lu Dongzan could not help but get angry. "Then what else do you want?"
"Do you even need to ask? Increase the price!" Lin Wanrong continued unhurriedly: "For example, your Turkic Khaganate will admit defeat, sign a treaty, disband your army, cede land and pay reparations, pay tribute every year, allow free trade between the two countries, teach the Chinese language, allow the two countries to move freely, trade, marry, post …"
He listed out dozens of conditions. Lu Dongzan was so angry that his face turned pale. He waved his hand. "Lord Lin, you are too arrogant! If that's the case. Then Lu Dongzan will be offended. Once I catch you, I won't have to worry about not being able to find the owner of the golden blade! My men, whoever catches Lin San alive will be rewarded with a thousand cows and sheep, three ferghana horses, and will be bestowed the title of the strongest warrior! "
A thousand cows and sheep, three ferghana horses? So I am selling them at the price of an animal!! Lin Wanrong vomited blood. Lu Dongzan did not give him any face. He did not understand the rewards of the Turkic Khaganate and thought that he was selling them at the price of an animal. But he did not know that the value of a thousand cows and sheep and three ferghana horses was enough to topple a city. It was almost the highest material reward of the Turkic Khaganate!
Under the heavy rewards, dust flew everywhere. Tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry charged forward aggressively. The sabers in their hands flashed with a silvery radiance. The earth quaked and the mountains shook.
Lin Wanrong and Hu Bugui stood at the boundary between the grassland and the desert. They coldly stared at the Turkic Khaganate that was charging at them like quicksilver. Their malevolent faces and wild eyes were clearly visible. The loud sound of hooves resonated with the ground. It almost ruptured their eardrums.
The twenty thousand Turkic cavalry had already been divided into three parts by Ejin Na's yurts. Lin Wanrong laughed heartily and waved his hand. "Set the camp on fire! Brother Hu. It's all up to you now! "
"Yes sir!" Hu Bugui bellowed, igniting the flames on the arrowheads. His body bent slightly, the giant bow in his hand tilted upwards, and a blazing fire arrow was nocked on the bowstring.
Gazing at the huge arrows in Hu Bugui's hands, Lu Dongzan blinked, then turned his head to look at Ejin Na's yurt that stretched into the sky, and the endless stream of Turkic cavalry that filled it. His face abruptly changed as he yelled in Turkic, "Quickly leave the yurt, they're going to attack with fire!"
"Too late!" Lin Wanrong roared with laughter. "Brother Lu, I'll let off a firework for you to see!"
Before his voice faded, Hu Bugui let out a 'hey' and used all the strength in his body to pull open the giant bow. The blazing fire arrow shot out like a meteor with eyes and landed on a yurt in the middle of the Ejina Empire.
Boom! Flames soared into the sky, and the yurts that had been splashed with tung oil were instantly engulfed in flames. The hay between the tents was rapidly set ablaze, and the flames spread out bit by bit. The Turkic horses that were squeezing into the tribe were startled and whinnied. No longer under the control of the riders, they galloped away in all directions.
Hu Bugui shot out two more fire arrows. The tents were set ablaze, and the Ejin Na tribe was shrouded in flames. The Turkic horses madly galloped in all directions, crashing into each other and causing people and horses to be thrown off their feet, wailing incessantly!
Lu Dongzan did not expect that under his eyes, the Chinese would be able to pull off such a trick. His face flushed red with anger, he waved his saber and led the Turkic cavalry straight toward Lin Wanrong and Hu Bugui.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh! The rain of arrows streaked past them, as swift as the wind of the grasslands. The Ejin Na tribe had already turned into a sea of flames, and countless Turkic people were hurriedly fetching water to put out the fire. The surging Hu cavalry were like dark clouds approaching. Lin Wanrong turned his horse around, looked at Lu Dongzan's flushed face, and laughed heartily. "Brother Lu, we'll meet again! Brother Hu, let's go!! "
The two of them whipped their horses at the same time. The Turkic steed neighed to the sky, raised its front hooves, and galloped away. In an instant, it had crossed the grasslands and galloped into the sandstorm. The white sandstorm swept up their bodies, and in the blink of an eye, they could no longer be seen clearly.
Whoooosh! As the Turkic cavalry reached the edge of the desert, they stopped in unison. As they stared at the swirling sands, fear appeared on their faces, and not a single one of them dared to step into the desert. The endless rain of arrows whistled into the depths of the desert. But in the endless sandstorm, how could they see the figures of the Chinese?
No one had ever walked out of the sea of death alive, and no one knew where it led to. Who would have thought that the Chinese would have such courage, disregarding life and death and resolutely charging into it.
Lu Dongzan stopped at the edge of the desert, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly nodded his head. Taking a heavy arrow, he tightly tied the object in his hand to the body of the arrow. With a sharp whistle, the arrowhead spun into the sky, shooting into the depths of the desert — —
With a clang, the arrowhead landed heavily on the sand, giving Lin Wanrong a fright. Hu Bugui withdrew his gaze from the Hu at the edge of the desert and looked at the arrowhead, exclaiming in surprise, "Eh, there's something on it?!"
The sandstorm was so strong that a thin layer of yellow soil had accumulated on the arrowhead. Lin Wanrong jumped off his horse and picked up the arrowhead.
This heavy arrow was specially used by the Turkic people to break through armour. The arrowhead was wide and heavy. Wiping away the dust, he saw that there was a small box tied to the arrowhead with yellow gold thread.
Opening the box, a burst of golden light rushed out, causing Lin Wanrong to stare blankly.
Hu Bugui exclaimed, "Isn't this Yujia's golden blade? Why did the Hu return it to us?! "
Lin Wanrong was also confused. This golden blade was clearly a token of love that Yujia had given to her lover. Countless Turkic people had risked their lives for it, so why did Lu Dongzan return it?
Old Hu said with a smile, "General, maybe this Yujia is Lu Dongzan's daughter. The Turkic Imperial Tutor has taken a liking to your character and wants Yujia to give this golden blade to you, to make you his son-in-law!!"
Lin Wanrong carefully studied the golden blade, and did not see that Lu Dongzan had done anything to it. He kept the blade in his bosom and said with a smile, "Yujia is Lu Dongzan's daughter?! Evil bamboo produces good bamboo shoots?! Brother Hu, you are too good at guessing! You might as well say that she is the Turkic Khan and wants to make me the Khan, then I will feel a little better, haha! "
Hu Bugui also smiled. You say I'm making things up, but General Lin is better at making things up than me. His eyesight was very good, and his gaze fell on the box that was almost covered in yellow sand. Old Hu exclaimed, "General, there seems to be a letter!"
He was so focused on looking at the golden blade that he did not notice that there was a letter in the box. Lin Wanrong patted the sand off the box, pulled out the silk cloth, and glanced at it under the moonlight.
The silk cloth was soft and delicate, and there were six crooked words written on it: "Everything is possible!"
