Chapter 238 Slaying the Dragon (Part 1)

"Jieli, my brother, the Great Tuque is in urgent need of this weapon. In the east, the Tiele people control the Jungar Grassland and have become a serious problem for us. In the west, our brother Shegui Khan controls

The greater Jules Valley was destroyed, so that our silk could not be sold to the West. As a result, we lost the land in the Western Region that retained honey."

"If we cannot solve Tiele and stop Mohe Khan's expansion, let alone regain the glory of our ancestors who unified the grasslands and made the Central Plains surrender, maybe we will eventually be cannibalized."

"The emergence of this new type of weapon now gives me great hope, so we must get it at all costs."

Shibi Khan was holding half of the sketch given to him by Qin Hu, and he was extremely excited. He could not imagine what if the Great Tuque obtained the manufacturing method of this new type of weapon, and then manufactured it on a large scale to arm their own legions.

, how the soldiers advanced with great success when they were fighting against the Tiele people.

It is estimated that within a few years, the Western Tuque will also surrender to him, and the Great Tuque will return to its heyday. Then he will realize his dream of conquering Sasanian Persia, open up the trade route to Rome, and make a fortune.

.

"Dear Great Khan, I understand your thoughts, but this new weapon is also very dangerous."

Khan had already met Dugu Sheng just now. Dugu Sheng's sweet words had touched his heart, and he planned to agree to Qin Hu's request for an interview.

And Jieli always felt that something was wrong. He couldn't explain the details, but it just wasn't as good as the beginning.

Shibi Khan said: "Are you afraid that Qin Hu will attack me? Although this new weapon is powerful, it also has a range. We have already studied it. It can basically not cause damage beyond 200 steps, and I have

Protected by shield soldiers, I only allowed him to negotiate at a distance of five hundred steps from both sides."

"What I have to consider is the safety of the Great Khan, so I think it's better to be cautious." Jie Li was worried about his worries.

Shibi Khan raised the sketch in his hand: "Prince Jieli, this is an opportunity given to us by the gods. As your Great Khan, I must not miss this opportunity because of greed for life and fear of death. And you can rest assured.

I have given Qin Hu so many benefits, it is impossible for him to attack me."

"Okay, but you must be protected by a group of soldiers holding shields, and my brother will also accompany you."

"I'm worried that Qin Hu will take the opportunity to sneak attack on both wings of our army, so you and Chu Luo must stay and defend the formation. I can handle this kind of thing by myself." In fact, Shi Bi also had selfish motives. He thought this was a meeting of extraordinary significance.

, he wants to take all the credit.

"As ordered." Jieli covered his chest and exited the golden tent.

On the second day, Shibi Khan gathered 50,000 troops and advanced to the south gate of Yanmen County. At this time, the city gate was wide open, and Qin Hu also advanced with 15,000 Xiaoguo troops.

Qin Hu did not expect that this matter would go so smoothly. From this, we can deduce how much Shibi Khan wanted to obtain the technology of making crossbows. This may be because God has sentenced him to death. The fate of the country is gone.

"Later, I will go to see Shi Bi alone. Please don't follow me. I'm afraid he will become suspicious."

Li Jing said from the side: "This is a bit inappropriate. You are scheming at the beginning and end. How do you know that he has no intention of scheming against you? What if he also wants to take the opportunity to attack you?"

"War means taking risks. There is no business in the world where you can make a lot of money without taking risks. I can only do this. The most important thing is that your crossbow should be aimed carefully so as not to hit me." Qin Hu smiled calmly.

Li Jing frowned: "Okay."

The two sides continued to advance. When they were more than a thousand meters away, they could already see each other's flags. In order to avoid unnecessary friction, both sides ordered to stop advancing. Shibi had already selected 500 Sirius troops to let them

Surround yourself in the core, raise your shield, and carefully leave the large army.

As he walked, he realized that something was wrong. He saw that Qin Hu came alone. It seemed that he was really sincere in negotiating with him.

From this, Shibi Khan felt greatly relieved, and was immersed in the joy of getting the treasure. He couldn't help wiping his mustache with his thumbs.

"Dear Shibi Khan, Qin Hu is so polite."

Shibi patted his chest gently and curled his lips: "General Qin Hu, you are indeed very capable. We Tuque people worship heroes. I sincerely hope you can cooperate with me."

At this moment, Shibi Khan's whole body was wrapped in heavy armor, with only his two eyes exposed. The people guarding him were tall and powerful, and their equipment was similar to that of Shibi Khan.

The difference was that each of them held up a round shield in their hands, which overlapped each other, covering Shibi's entire body from the horse's legs to his neck. The spear and scimitar were only exposed from the gaps in the shield.

Qin Hu held a stack of drawings in his hand, raised it and said: "This is what the Great Khan wants to get, but I have no ambition to be an emperor. I just want to exchange this thing for another thing."

"Oh, what's more tempting than being an emperor?" Shibi Khan felt a little strange.

In fact, Qin Hu was just stalling for time, because the launch of the bed crossbow required preparation and aiming. This was not an ordinary shooting training, but a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Qin Hu said: "I only hope that the Great Khan can quickly retreat after getting the blueprint."

Shi Bi laughed loudly: "This is simply the biggest joke I have ever heard. You don't want to be the emperor, but you still want to protect that foolish emperor Yang Shou. You must know that the Yu Dynasty is over. We killed Yang Shou today.

Tuque will fully support you in sweeping the Central Plains, and you will obtain a large area of ​​land north of the Yellow River within a few months."

"But if Yang Shou lives, the Yu Dynasty will still be destroyed. The Khan's retreat is actually meaningless. You are a very smart person and should assess the situation."

Shibi also wanted to kill two birds with one stone. He wanted the crossbow skills and Yang Shou's life. Then he supported a comprador on the battlefield in the Central Plains, and then went back to use the crossbow to deal with Tiele.

So he had to make a last-ditch effort against Qin Hu.

"The emperor has his own destiny. It's not something anyone can do if he wants to. I don't need to talk to the Great Khan about this. This is my condition. I wonder if you can agree to it?"

Shibi was in a dilemma. This was his best opportunity to eliminate the Yu Dynasty. He really didn't want to lose it, and it was inconsistent with his overall strategic vision.

But the temptation of the crossbow design is too great, what should I do?
