Chapter 272
Eunuch Xi expected that the barbarians might have cooperation with the Xia Kingdom, but he did not expect to see someone sent by the Xia Kingdom in the barbarian camp.
"General, please take this man down and hand him over to our family. We will definitely give him a generous gift on behalf of His Majesty the Liang Kingdom."
Eunuch Xi had his eyes on Wu Qi. Anyone who could come here must have an important position in the northern border. If he was taken back, he might get unexpected gains.
It was a pity that although Eunuch Xi's status in the Liang Kingdom was not low, his strength was not very good. He was arrogant at ordinary times, but he still had to rely on others at critical moments.
"This general? This general? Azada, it seems that this eunuch did not take you seriously at all. He came to negotiate, but he didn't even know the name of the commander-in-chief."
Wu Qi teased.
Wu Qi was not worried about any accidents to the high-level barbarian generals. Even if there was a threat from the Barbarian Temple, Wu Qi was not worried. At most, he would kill them all and train a new batch.
As long as the army was firmly controlled, these people would not be able to make any waves.
Wu Qi's words made Eunuch Xi speechless. He was just here to pass on the message and had not done much investigation. With the order from the Barbarians, who cares who the other party is?
To put it bluntly, although this Eunuch Xi is beside the emperor and is very smart, he still looks down on people like Azada in his bones.
Eunuch Xi was rude first, but he did not argue. It was meaningless anyway.
Seeing that Eunuch Xi hid his emotions so quickly, Wu Qi looked up to him.
But Wu Qi's next move quickly broke Eunuch Xi's defense.
Wu Qi walked to the middle of the tent and sat down on the main seat.
"You, you are the Barbarian Commander?"
How could this scene not shock people?
The army was solemn, and the Barbarians stood on both sides. Wu Qi sat alone on the seat. This was not acting. The Barbarians' surrender from the bottom of their hearts could be felt by Eunuch Xi.
Eunuch Xi knew very well what it meant to let a group of savage and warlike barbarians obey the command of a Xia countryman.
The cooperation between the barbarians and the Xia country was not in the ordinary sense. This discovery completely shocked Eunuch Xi.
Wu Qi reached out and took the letter from Azada and read it.
It turned out that many years ago, when the ancestor of the Barbarian Temple had not yet achieved great success, he had fought with the royal family of Liang State and was unfortunately defeated.
The royal family member was a pure martial arts fanatic. He admired the talent of the ancestor and spared his life without killing him.
The ancestor always remembered this favor. After growing up, he took the initiative to make a promise and was willing to help Liang State once as an individual.
Now Liang State wanted to use this promise to change the situation of the war. For Liang State, this move is very beneficial.
"Eunuch Xi, I will give you a chance. If you want to live, you can surrender to the northern border."
Wu Qi put away the letter and said directly.
Wu Qi's words were very direct. After speaking, he waited for Eunuch Xi's choice.
These eunuchs are almost all orphans. Even if they have family, they are all ordinary families and have no foundation in Liang State.
Another point is that eunuchs are selfish and eccentric. They have no sense of family and country. They only care about their own interests.
If Eunuch Xi can be successfully captured, it will be of great help to deal with the Jimengshan army.
At this time, Wu Qi was already planning a huge plan in his heart. If successful, it would be of great help to the North.
"Who are you? Why do you want our family to surrender? What confidence does your Xia State have?"
Eunuch Xi did not refuse at the first time, but asked about Wu Qi's background. To put it bluntly, he just wanted to find out the details of Xia State and whether it was worth his risk.
Wu Qi understood.
"I am Wu Qi, a general under the command of Long Tian, the Northern King of Xia, and I am in charge of the barbarian affairs."
"All 700,000 troops here are under my command. After conquering Fucheng, the 500,000 barbarian cavalry heading towards the heartland of Liang will be under the command of Yuwen Chengdu, the general of the northern border."
"By the way, these barbarian cavalry have another title. They are all members of my northern border Zhenbei Army. You can understand what I mean."
Wu Qi directly explained that he wanted to completely disintegrate the will of Eunuch Xi.
"Impossible, how could the barbarians surrender to the northern border?"
Eunuch Xi was a little unconvinced, but the situation in front of him showed that Wu Qi was not lying, and Wu Qi also took the initiative to talk about the situation of another army.
The Liang court also had doubts about the barbarians' use of troops this time. After all, the actions of the barbarians helped the northern border a lot.
"Whether you believe it or not is up to you. I'm telling you the truth."
"You also roughly understand the current situation in the South Courtyard. Ji Shuai died in battle, Jiao Zi was trapped, and Liang Hong was completely surrounded. Without support and supplies, how many days can the Liang army hold out?"
"I don't want to see people suffer, so I'm telling you this. I hope you can cooperate and help me resolve Jimeng Mountain peacefully. You will also be considered a great contribution.", and you will have a place in the North in the future."
"You don't have to worry about the revenge of the Liang royal family. In the North, their hands are not that long."
Wu Qi threw out an olive branch and directly expressed his intention.
Surrendering the North was something that Eunuch Xi had never thought of before coming here.
Wu Qi looked at Eunuch Xi with a smile, waiting for his choice.
For Wu Qi, this was just an attempt, and even if it failed, it would not affect the overall situation, but for Eunuch Xi, it was completely different. This was related to his own life.
The barbarian army was controlled by the North, which was equivalent to the entire South Court being in the North's layout, and the court army could not support it so quickly, otherwise Eunuch Xi would not be sent.
Eunuch Xi was very clear about this.
"Azada, take down all the people brought by Eunuch Xi, keep those who can be used by me, and kill those who do not obey. "
Wu Qi pushed again, further forcing Eunuch Xi.
Eunuch Xi never thought that he, who had the letter of the barbarian ancestor, would end up like this.
Eunuch Xi's face was uncertain, and he was hesitant.
"Forget it, I am willing to obey the general's orders."
He compromised, and didn't even insist for a while.
Eunuch Xi had no roots in Liang State. If one person is full, the whole family will not be hungry, and there will be no worries. If he insists, he may not be able to leave the camp.
Compared with his own life, loyalty is worth a few taels of silver, and it doesn't matter where you live.
As for Liang State's revenge in the future, let's talk about it later, it's better than dying immediately.
"Congratulations, Eunuch, for making a wise choice. Don't worry, my northern border treats everyone equally, and I believe you will not be disappointed. "
Wu Qi praised Eunuch Xi's choice, but in fact he looked down on such people in his heart.
A good bird chooses the right tree to roost in, but people like Eunuch Xi are not good birds.
"My next plan still needs your cooperation. As long as this is successful, you will have made a great contribution and will be invincible in the north. I will also report to the prince and ask for credit for you."
Without further delay, Wu Qi decided to implement his plan immediately.
