Daqin Engineers

Chapter 386

Wu Shiluo said the next day.

In fact, Wu Shiluo started preparations on the same day. He urgently transferred 20,000 sheep and 2,000 cows from the nearest shepherd spot, and then rushed to Xitao overnight.

Wu Shiluo has been doing business on the border for a long time. He knows that people in the Central Plains do not usually value treasures... Actually, they are not unimportant, but as long as they are calculated at the price of the Central Plains, they are often far inferior to cattle and sheep. Luo said it was nothing, so of course it is wise to send cattle and sheep.

It was slow to drive cattle and sheep, and did not arrive at the Qin army station until noon the next day.

The soldiers of the Qin Army looked at the sheep all over the mountains, their eyes were straight, not to mention Liqing and his subordinates...If the thousands of sheep of the Qin Army before made them envious, the two thousand sheep would only be them. The dream of a lifetime.

Wu Shiluo personally escorted these sheep and horses, and went to Shen Bing's place to take a breath:

"General, these sheep and horses... Caomin thanked the general for taking care of me."

"Whether the son condemned the Tuoba clan or not, I will remember the general's kindness."

"The general, please accept it!"

What Wu Shiluo said was level.

He first made Shen Bing understand that this was not compensation, but an extra for Shen Bing to speak nicely in front of Fusu.

The other potential meaning is that if Shen Bing fails to deal with Fusu, then of course the subsequent compensation will be gone.

Of course, Wu Shiluo dare not say so clearly.

Because if Shen Bing wanted the next compensation, wouldn't he just lead his troops to destroy the Tuoba clan and Wu Clan?

There were a lot of cattle and sheep, and they were also famous...Who let the Tuoba Clan do it first?

Even dare to besiege Lord Qin?

Who else will you hit if you don't?

Of course Shen Bing would not do this.

He said to Wu Shiluo:

"Why the messenger needs to be so polite."

"Shen Bing has reported the general situation to the son yesterday, but..."

Wu Shiluo asked nervously:

"But what?"

Shen Bing frowned and shook his head to answer:

"The son is not shocked!"

"After the previous war, he went back to Jiuyuan overnight to recuperate."

"But the messenger stays safe and does not get dry. The son is from Confucianism, and he has always been kind to others."

"I'm afraid that this matter will startle the emperor..."

The sweat dripped from Wu Shi Luo Na's forehead in an instant.

He has been doing business in Central Plains for a long time, of course, he knows that Fusu has a gentle and approachable personality, but the cruelty of Yingzheng is well known in the world. If Yingzheng knows this, I am afraid it will not be so easy to be kind.

Shen Bing said:

"So, Shen Bing can only ask the son to give priority to the emperor's dragon body. These little things don't need the emperor to worry about."

Wu Shiluo quickly answered:

"The general said it is quite true, and everything here has been misunderstood and understood. It is better not to trouble the emperor for these trivial matters!"

Shen Bing turned around and said:

"It's just that if the emperor asks about Xitao one day, how can I reply to the relationship between Qin Jun and Tuoba?"

"An enemy? A friend? Or..."

Wu Shiluo immediately understood the meaning of Shen Bing's words.

The enemy is of course impossible, and this is not what we are talking about now.

Friends... How can the little Tuoba clan be qualified to be an ally of the Qin army?

If it is neither an enemy nor a friend, it is a vassal.

Wu Shiluo didn't think much, and knelt down immediately:

"Please rest assured, the general."

"Although Wu Shiluo cannot be the master of the Tuoba clan, he can be the blessing of the Tuoba clan for the Da Qin country."

"Wu Shiluo will go back and report the situation. The Caomin expects Tuoba will not refuse!"

Shen Bing said again:

"Ruowanglishi and Tuoba are both vassals of Qin..."

Wu Shiluo couldn't help being stunned. Although Xiang Lishi was still on a scale in the past, only a thousand people were left behind by the Tuoba clan.

But since Shen Bing said so, Wu Shiluo naturally did not dare to object.

"General, rest assured!" Wu Shiluo replied: "The Tuoba clan and Wangli clan belong to the same Qin genus, and they will become jade silk, and will come together peacefully in the future."

Shen Bing nodded to express satisfaction, and said:

"This is what the son wants. If the Tuoba clan is willing to belong to Daqin, it will be difficult for the son to pursue it!"

Wu Shiluo was overjoyed, and then he withdrew after repeated assurances.

After Wu Shiluo returned to Tuoba's camp, he immediately informed Tuoba Li of these conditions.

Tuoba Li also breathed a sigh of relief, but said with some worry:

"If my Tuoba family belongs to Da Qin, does that mean paying tribute to Da Qin every year?"

"Does it mean that I will accompany the Qin army in battle?"

Wu Shi said angrily:

"The chief doesn't know anything. When I wait for the tribute, I just give some cattle and sheep, but Da Qin will give back silk goods, so why worry?"

Tuoba Li was a little confused and asked:

"Really? Da Qin will give it back?"

Wu Shiluo replied:

"Da Qin is a big country with hundreds of thousands of soldiers, so how can it be lack of Tuoba's reward?"

Wu Shiluo felt relieved when he said Tuobali.

In fact, as Wu Shiluo said, the Central Plains has always been tolerant to neighboring countries. After receiving the tribute from the vassal country, there are rebates, and the value of the rebates is often higher than the tribute.

On the one hand, the Central Plains wants to embody the demeanor of a big country. On the other hand, it is to show off to other small countries that have not yet been attached to or use it as an example... After becoming a Central Plains country, there are many benefits. Are you waiting to come soon?

Wu Shiluo continued:

"As for playing with the Qin Army."

"If the Tuoba clan can defeat the Xiongnu or the Yue clan together with the Qin army, then the unified party..."

Tuoba Li said "Oh", then immediately became happy and nodded again and again:

"This is reasonable, this is done by the state!"

So there was nothing to say, Tuoba Li immediately agreed and asked Wu Shiluo to tell Shen Bing that he would bring the tribute to the emperor in Xianyang another day, and Shen Bing first informed him.

At this time, Tuoba Li should personally go to Shen Bing to apologize.

But Shen Bing guessed that Tuoba Li didn't dare to see Shen Bing personally all the time because he was worried that this was Shen Bing's trick to lead the snake out of the cave, for fear that he would never be able to go back once he arrived at the Qin Army barracks.

Shen Bing only thought it was funny. If he really wants to deal with you Tuoba clan, would he still use this method?

Wu Shiluo also kept his word, and then drove the cattle, horses and sheep who had promised compensation to the Qin Army barracks.

That is a total of nearly 50,000 sheep and more than 10,000 cattle, plus more than 1,000 good horses.

It would be difficult to get so much livestock in other places at once, because feeding is a big problem.

But in Xitao, where the grassland occupies more than half of the land, there is no need to worry at all. The Qin army only needs to enclose a valley with a wooden fence and drive the cattle, sheep and horses in.

There is no need to worry about the food in Xitao or even the Hexi Corridor. There will be cattle for farming in Xitao in the coming year.

It's just that Wu Shiluo didn't guess right.

Shen Bing knew well the truth that the Tuoba family should not be allowed to dominate, and how could it give the Tuoba family a chance to unify the party!
