Memoirs of the Heavenly Khan

Chapter 71 Everyone dies since ancient times

At daybreak, the Rouran envoy Yujiulüfa entered Huaishuo Town.

He was arrogant all the way.

The people of Huaishuo saw it all but dared not speak out.

It used to be the forward base for the Tuoba clan's northern expedition to the Rouran, and also a solid line of defense against the Rouran's southward advance. Now it was about to be trampled under the feet of the Rouran. Yu Jiulv felt indescribably happy.

In front of the town commander's mansion, Po Liu Han Kongque, along with his family and generals, was waiting at the gate to greet him.

As soon as Yu Jiulufa dismounted, a child of eight or nine years old came forward and said affectionately:

"uncle!"

"Eh!"

Yu Jiulvfa was fat but very strong. He hugged him in his arms, turned him around, and then put him down.

"My child is being rude, little Khan, please forgive me!"

"We are uncle and nephew, how can we forgive each other?"

Yu Jiulufa glanced at the crowd and asked:

"Where is your son named Chang?"

"I went to send my bride off early in the morning!"

When Yu Jiulufa heard this, his eyes flickered with a sense of melancholy and regret.

"I wonder how stunningly beautiful this woman must be to be the one that King Guangyang can't forget. It's a shame I never get the chance to meet her."

Po Liu Han Kongque was glad that he had sent Dugu Ru away overnight, otherwise, with this fat man around, who knows what kind of troubles would arise. So he quickly welcomed Yu Jiulvfa into the mansion.

Fine wine and beautiful women had already been prepared in the mansion.

Yujiulüfa did not enjoy the food immediately, but took out an edict from the Rouran Khan and prepared to read it in public.

Po Liu Han Kongque knelt down immediately, but Yu Jiulvfa looked past him and looked at the general behind him.

"Your Majesty!"

Po Liu Han Kongque shouted, and everyone knelt down.

Yu Jiulufa was very satisfied, and even his voice became a little higher -

The ruler of Heaven, respected by all tribes, the Great Khan of Rouran, Anagui, announces to the chiefs of the tribes, Silifa, Tudufa, and all the ministers:
Since our ancestors founded the kingdom in the northern desert, blessed by the Tengri, our cavalry has traversed thousands of miles, commanding might from north to south. Now that the Central Plains is weak and the Wei Dynasty is in decline, this is a heaven-sent opportunity for the Rouran to revive!
The commander of the Po Liu Han tribe, Po Liu Han Kongque, was the first to return to the cause, which makes this Khan very pleased. Now I grant you the title of the Small Khan of the Southern Road and order your tribe to rule the Wuyuan and Yunzhong areas forever.

Under the Wolf-Head Banner, the Golden Tent's Decree!

"I will always be grateful to the Great Khan and will never betray him!"

After Yu Jiulu finished reading it, he smiled and helped Po Liu Han Kongque up.

"Your Majesty, there's no need to be so polite. We're family from now on, so please take good care of us!"

"It should!"

"I heard that you captured Li Shengui's sworn brother?"

"To be honest, Little Khan, I used a trick. I pretended to submit to Li Shengui and tricked him into coming to negotiate. Now I have him under my control."

"That's great." Yu Jiulu looked at himself dimly and touched his cheek. "Those slaps he gave me back then really hurt!"

Seeing the situation, Han Kongque, the sixth-ranked player, said with a smile:
"How about I bring him here now and let the little Khan vent his anger."

"No rush, you only got the 100,000 dan of grain and 30,000 cattle and sheep. He still has at least 5,000 gold in his pocket. Squeeze him dry first!"

"Xiao Wang understands!"
-
cell.

Li Shuang yawned and looked at Hou Jing and Gao Huan who had not slept all night.

"You're walking around and making so much noise that I can't sleep!"

Unlike Li Shuang's leisurely manner, Gao Huan sat there all night long, while Hou Jing paced back and forth anxiously.

"My Lord, what time is it now? Are you still in the mood to sleep? Our lives are only in the hands of others."

Li Shuang smiled.

"Why hesitate? At this moment, if we want to have a chance of survival, we have to fight to the death."

After saying that, he looked at Gao Huan.

"He Liuhun, what do you think?"

"I really admire Brother Ohno's magnanimity."

Upon hearing this, Hou Jing hurried to Gao Huan and asked:
"He Liuhun, if you have any tricks up your sleeve, tell us now. We're going to be killed soon."

At this moment, footsteps were heard in the corridor outside the cell. "Da Ye Shuang, come out!"

"Why me? Didn't they go first?"

"Cut the nonsense!"

After Li Shuang was taken away, Gao Huan looked at Hou Jing with a serious expression.

"Brother Ohno is right. Now is the time to fight to the death. Hou Jing, what do you say?"

Hou Jing said without hesitation:

"It's just one life. I was born here, and if I die here, it will be a worthy death!"

"With your words, I feel relieved!"
-
Town commander's mansion.

The house is warm, like a spring day.

Yu Jiulufa sat alone, looking at Li Shuang who walked in with a smile.

"The general suffered!"

"It turns out to be the little Khan!"

"This Khan has already reprimanded the King of Pingnan. The general is a descendant of the Longxi Li clan, a noble family. How could he be treated this way? My Rouran Khanate will ally with the Great Wei to defeat the Six Garrisons rebels. The general is also a friend of our Rouran. This Khan has already persuaded the King of Pingnan and will send the general back to Yunzhong soon."

"Thank you very much, little Khan. When can I leave?"

"Don't worry, we agreed earlier on the five thousand gold coins from the alliance between Wei and Rouran. General, should we have the Grand Commander deliver them first?"

Li Shuang smiled.

"That five thousand gold has already been spent!"

"it took?"

Yu Jiulufa's expression changed and he sat back down.

"In this case, I can't save the general!"

With a bang, Po Liu Han Kongque walked in with two armored soldiers, his eyes wide open with anger.

"Ohye Shuang, don't be ungrateful!"

Yu Jiulufa poured himself a glass of kumis, put it to his nose and sipped it carefully, his movements extremely awkward.

"General, you'd better hand it over as soon as possible, otherwise, I won't be able to persuade King Pingnan."

Facing the threat, Li Shuang was not afraid at all and shouted:
"Since ancient times, no one has died, and his loyalty will be remembered by history!"

Yu Jiulu smiled coldly and said:
"What a poem!"

Po Liu Han Kongque was furious.

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll let you take a picture of history!"

With a bang, the door burst open, and the generals under Po Liu Han Kongque rushed in with more people.

"Didn't you say not to come in?"

"Wei Jing gathered dozens of desperate criminals, broke into the prison, and rescued Gao Huan and Hou Jing. At this moment, they gathered a large group of Huaishuo townspeople and started a riot."

"Why panic!"

Po Liu Han Kongque waved his sleeves and remained calm.

"Since they're seeking death, don't blame me. Each of you will lead your troops and go quell the rebellion. Anyone who dares to rebel, including their families, will be killed!"

After Po Liu Han Kongque finished speaking, the generals around him did not move at all.

"Are you all deaf?"

Po Liu Han Kongque urged again and again, but the generals around him remained motionless.

Li Shuang smiled and said:

"The King of Pingnan has spoken, what are you waiting for?"

After Li Shuang finished speaking, the situation in the room suddenly changed.

The generals drew their swords, subdued the two armored soldiers beside Po Liu Han Kongque, and surrounded him.

Li Shuang walked up to Yu Jiulufa, took the cup of kumis from his stiff hand, and patted his big face.

"Now you know where my five thousand gold went?"
