Chapter 155: The Chief Assistant Of Da Yan
The person who came to visit was an old man with a slightly stooped back.
I have never practiced Realm in my body. Now that I am old, my bones are no longer strong. When the cool autumn wind blows, my kneecaps feel a little painful. It is not very convenient to walk. I have to hold on to the door frame to cross the threshold.
But for such an old man who could no longer withstand the wind and rain, even an unruly and perverse man like Aleph felt pressured by his arrival.
Don't dare to neglect.
"Haha, the visitor is a guest. How can there be etiquette for a guest to go out to greet the host?"
The old man's understatement redefined who was the guest and who was the host here.
After all, this is Dayan.
And no one would question the qualifications of this frail old man to represent Dayan.
Because he is the chief assistant of Dayan.
Zhang Hongzheng, the only one who weighs the world's affairs, is under one person.
Aleph asked with a smile: "I didn't expect us people to have such a big reputation. We are really lucky to be able to alert the chief minister of Da Yan."
Zhang Shoufu regarded himself as the master of this place, casually picked a chair and sat down. He rubbed his knees that were hurt by the autumn wind, glanced at the perverse prince of the desert, and smiled without saying a word.
On the other hand, Aleph's senior brother shook his head and told the truth that Zhang Shoufu had never told: "Junior brother, what you said is wrong. This is not for our face, but for the glory of the soldier leader who is the best in the world." .”
If it weren't for the military leaders who dragged Da Yan's 700,000 troops to the scale, their weight would not be able to overwhelm Da Yan's chief assistant.
Zhang Shoufu didn't have much energy to speak of. He just smiled pleasantly and looked at the senior brother in the Desert Temple openly:
"You are Amul, right? The high priest has hidden you, the precious disciple who inherits the legacy, for so many years, and is he finally willing to let you out to see the world?"
The temple senior brother Amul, who was traveling for the first time, was gentle and modest, as if facing a respectable elder, he said softly:
"Master has taken care of me for so many years, but I can't live under Master's wings forever. To use a popular saying in Dayan, whether you are a mule or a horse, you have to go out and run to find out."
Amul's situation is actually somewhat similar to Lu Pan's.
Even more than that.
What are the similarities? Where have you been?
The unknown in the past seems to be paving the way for a blockbuster in the future.
As for "getting past it".
Let's put it this way, even if Lu Pan doesn't go down the mountain, the world at least knows that the Taoist sect can walk the world.
But the Desert Temple does not have as deep a foundation as the Taoist Sect, nor does it have any esoteric purpose. Who knows who the senior brother of the Temple is?
To this day, the high priest has kept this great disciple who inherited the legacy very deep.
Amul's name can't be found on the list of hidden dragons in the Pavilion of Celestial Secrets.
Zhang Shoufu smiled: "Then you have been running around the capital for so many days. Do you realize that you are a mule or a horse?"
Aleph was about to answer when his expression suddenly changed and he lowered his head slightly.
The sound of crutches hitting the ground was heard.
"Zhang Shoufu must have noticed that my disciple has been struggling for so many days, right?"
Zhang Shoufu still smiled: "It's Thousand Li Horse."
The high priest, who traveled thousands of miles, walked on crutches from the place where the war was raging to the most merciful place in the world, and came to the front of Chief Minister Dayan.
He nodded slightly and reached an agreement: "Yes, my carefully selected apprentice, how about it?"
After holding the snake-killing stick, Zhang Shoufu asked: "If this apprentice is so good, why did he hide it for so long?"
This is a secret.
Even Zhenmensi couldn't dig it out.
"Prince Dayan is also a good position, how about Zhang Shoufu tell me, which prince of Dayan can get this position?"
They're all Thousand Year's foxes, why are they playing Liaozhai?
A secret is a secret.
How could it be that he asked in a few words.
But now that the Chief Assistant of Dayan and the High Priest of the Desert have gathered together.
There is no need to continue the gossip.
It's time to get down to business.
Zhang Shoufu said softly: "Since a prince and a precious apprentice are both in the capital, the high priest must not want to go with the leader of the army and attack Dayan, so what does Da Mo want to get from it, food?"
The high priest cut to the chase: "Wangsha City."
As expected, Zhang Shoufu shook his head resolutely, and said softly: "High Priest, this is a bit of a lion's mouth."
Wangsha City.
It was the majestic border city that Dayan built after breaking through half of the desert, and it still stands in the desert today.
Zhang Shoufu's refusal was also expected by the high priest.
How much Da Mo wanted to take back that piece of land, relatively speaking, how much Da Yan didn't want to abandon that border town.
After all, there is not much in the desert except for the yellow sand. There are a lot of barren places, but there are not many treasured places that can be called rich. The place occupied by Wangsha City of Dayan is one of them. one.
Just being a soldier who is far away in the Hanwu Kingdom is not enough for Dayan to hand over the border city that occupies the fertile land of the desert.
This title has to be increased.
"Covenant."
"As long as Da Yan lets go of Wangsha City, Da Mo is willing to conclude an alliance with Da Yan."
"This will not only relieve Da Yan of his worries when he faces the leader of the army, but Da Mo can also send troops to assist Da Yan to show his sincerity."
Hearing the bargaining chip added by the high priest, Zhang Shoufu was a little moved, at least not the previous look that was nothing to talk about, but he still said: "When the desert sends troops, the situation in Hanwu Kingdom may be settled. ?”
Not everyone in the desert is a high priest, with the ability to travel thousands of miles a day.
When the desert sent troops across Dayan to the battlefield of Hanwu country, the situation would have already been decided, and whether or not there was such a support army was irrelevant to the overall situation.
"Why does it have to be the Hanwu Kingdom? Zhang Shoufu would never think that your good neighbor in the south of Dayan is waiting to put out the fire, right?"
Zhang Shoufu said firmly: "With General Xiao around, there will be no fire in the south."
The high priest lowered his eyes when he heard the words, and said after a while: "What if it's a gamble? On the premise that Da Mo is willing to form an alliance and reinforce the army, Da Yan only needs to take out Wangsha City as a bet, isn't that enough?"
Zhang Shoufu blinked and said with a smile: "The bet is so big, how does the high priest want to bet?"
"Just like what my precious apprentices have done in Yujing City these days, let's just bet on the force of these younger generations?"
"Let them compete in Yujing City for three days, and take on the challenge of Dayan's younger generation."
"Three days later, if they still have someone standing in the arena, then Damo will win, and I hope Sand City will return to Damo."
"On the other hand, Da Yan won the bet and didn't have to pay anything. Da Mo still formed an alliance with Da Yan and provided military assistance."
The high priest placed a heavy bet on the scale, and said slowly: "Zhang Shoufu thinks such a bet suits your wishes?"
"It's not right, it's not a child's play to bet on the great affairs of the two countries."
Zhang Shoufu shook his head.
After the appearance of the high priest, the people from the desert, such as Amur and Alefu, who just listened with their heads down, saw that the chief assistant of Dayan rejected the proposal of the high priest again, and their hearts were pulled into their throats.
