Three Kingdoms: I choose Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao, why are you crying, Diao Chan?

Chapter 502: A world of wealth! (Thanks to my brother Shengci for the monthly ticket support~)

Bingzhou, Wuyuan County.

When Wang Lang, disguised as a merchant, arrived here, it was already February, the peak of spring.

Wang Lang, who was in his thirties, looked at his master's hometown.

Looking at the ruins and traces of the Xiongnu occupation, I couldn't help but sigh:

"That group of people actually wanted me, a clerk in charge of finances and grain, to go to the Xiongnu territory to act as a lobbyist.

"You really don't take my life seriously..."

Although he said this, his body was very honest.

After all, I am a man of great knowledge and I love to debate with others.

Apart from Ni Heng, the guy under Lu Bu's command who likes to rap and curse, no one else can say anything about himself!

Now, he is naturally full of confidence about this mission.

As the imperial court reached an agreement with the Huns, and the previous Chanyu Yufuluo just passed away this year.

Huochequan, who had just become the new Chanyu, needed to stabilize the situation, so he made concessions to the court.

Otherwise, given the Huns' crudeness and high mobility in military capability, the imperial army would definitely continue to suffer.

It is not as easy as imagined to persuade Huochequan this time.

But if it were really that easy, he would lose interest.

It was precisely because of the difficulty that he was willing to accept Wei Yan's commission to make this trip.

Wang Lang didn't think any more and continued to head towards the border accompanied by two veteran generals, Han Dang and Cheng Pu, and the caravan.

Because a peace agreement was reached with the Huns, the two sides reopened commercial exchanges.

Wang Lang and others encountered no obstacles and passed through the customs easily.

After several days of trekking across the grassland, the caravan soon encountered a group of guerrilla bandits.

Although the imperial court had reached an agreement with the Xiongnu, such small-scale Xiongnu raids on merchant caravans still occurred frequently within Xiongnu territory.

And the group of Hun bandits in front of them numbered at least five hundred people.

Wang Lang and his caravan consisted of only two hundred people.

Despite this, Cheng Pu and Han Dang immediately ordered the soldiers disguised as merchant servants to line up and wait!
Seeing that the caravan was quite orderly, the Hun bandits immediately slowed down.

The leader of the bandits asked loudly in a Han Chinese accent:
"You don't look like an ordinary caravan! What are you doing in my Xiongnu territory?"

At this time, Cheng Pu stepped out with a snake spear in hand and said:
"We are the envoys of Lü Bu's army. We have come to see Chanyu Huchuquan on important matters."

"Lv Bu's army?"

Hearing this name that is famous in the South.

The bandit leader, who had been beaten and fled in fear by the Flying General Lu Bu in his early years, suddenly had a flash of fear in his eyes.

They didn't expect that the Flying General who once terrified them would later establish a huge vassal state in the southern part of the Central Plains!
This was incredible to the Huns.

How is it possible that a man who is so good at fighting has the brains to conquer and manage such a large territory?

However, the facts were before their eyes and they had no way of questioning anything.

Upon learning that the caravan in front of them came from Lu Bu's army, the bandits dared not act rashly again.

The bandit leader said to the crowd:
"Since you are envoys, you may follow me to see the Right Wise King.

"He will arrange for you to meet the Great Chanyu."

Wang Lang responded on behalf of everyone:
"Then I'll have to trouble you to lead the way."

Under the leadership of this group of Hun bandits, Wang Lang and his men soon arrived at a Hun camp.

At a glance, there are thousands of tents here, with men, women, young and old in them, just like a large tribe.

Led by the bandit leader, Wang Lang, Cheng Pu and Han Dang came straight to the largest tent in the center of the camp. The bandit leader placed his right hand on his chest and shouted loudly in the Xiongnu language to the big tent:

"Right Wise King, Lu Bu's envoy wishes to see the Great Chanyu!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Lang and others heard the sound of tea bowls breaking in the tent.

Then the sound of hurried footsteps was heard again.

The next moment, the tent was suddenly opened, and a man with a ferocious face and a Hun hat walked out quickly.

It was the Southern Wise King of the Xiongnu - Qubei!
Qu Bei looked at the three people in front of him and asked in unfamiliar Chinese:
"Are you Lu Bu's men?"

Wang Lang looked at him with a bit of arrogance, and without any greeting, he replied directly:

"Exactly."

Seeing this man's arrogant attitude, a hint of anger appeared in Qu Bei's eyes, and he immediately waved his hand:
"Lü Bu and I are mortal enemies! Now that you have fallen into my hands, I shall kill you!"

As he spoke, Qubei gave the order in unfamiliar Chinese:

"Someone! Capture them for me!"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Pu and Han Dang's faces changed. They immediately drew their weapons and confronted the surrounding Hun soldiers.

But at this moment, Wang Lang burst into laughter and said jokingly to Qu Bei:

“I thought the Right Wise King of the Xiongnu was as wise and capable as his reputation.

"After seeing them today, I can see that they are indeed no different from other crude Huns!"

Qu Bei raised his eyebrows, then raised his hand, signaling his men not to take action yet.

He looked at Wang Lang in front of him and replied with a sneer:
"Since you are an envoy entering our territory, how dare you be so rude?

"It would be easy for me to kill you!"

Wang Lang snorted coldly:
"I am the envoy of the superior country, and you are the king of the defeated army.

"You didn't show courtesy first, but you want me to show courtesy to my master's defeated general first?

"We have come here today to give you great wealth, but we never thought that what we would get in return is an axe.

"Well, since you don't want this wealth, let it go to waste!"

As he spoke, he pushed aside Cheng Pu and Han Dang's bodies and strode towards the Xiongnu soldiers.

Cheng Pu and Han Dang looked at each other and saw the surprise and doubt in each other's eyes. It was obvious that they didn't understand what Wang Lang was talking about.

However, they still hurried to catch up and protect Wang Lang on both sides.

Faced with Wang Lang's fearless spirit, it was the Hun soldiers under Qu Bei who showed fear and kept retreating.

Apparently, they also didn't understand why a weak civil servant could have such a powerful aura!

At this moment, Qu Bei was also frightened by Wang Lang.

He immediately walked quickly to Wang Lang, and then, in front of Cheng Pu and Han Dang's surprised eyes, he bowed solemnly to Wang Lang:
"I was rude just now. Since the envoy came with good intentions, how can I neglect him? Please come in!"

As he spoke, Qu Bei personally opened the curtain and made an inviting gesture.

Upon seeing this, Wang Lang straightened his clothes and stopped putting on airs. Instead, he bowed to Qu Bei and said "please" in the same way.

Then the two of them walked into the tent at the same time, smiling.

Cheng Pu and Han Dang looked at each other again, and both saw the incredulity in each other's eyes...

In the tent.

Qu Bei personally poured a glass of goat's milk for Wang Lang, and asked Cheng Pu and Han Dang to sit down.

After entertaining the three people, Qu Bei did not say anything too polite and asked impatiently:

"I wonder where the great wealth you just mentioned is now?"
