I shook my head gently. After all, I was not strong enough, so I had so many thoughts of worrying about gains and losses.

Xuzhou is not ready to fight to the death with the Shatuo people, or Xuzhou is not a match for the Shatuo people now.

The Shatuo people are not Daliang. The war with Daliang over the years and the conquest of the northern Zahu have always maintained a tense rhythm, and their army has not been eroded by the mentality of dying from peace like Daliang.

They were very energetic, and Li Cunhou was not the leader of Zhu Yun, who was the only one who was in charge of the position of the corpse. The aggressive aura he showed, especially the fierce launch of the battle to destroy the country against Daliang, had already made Jiang Feng realize that this opponent was terrible.

What made Jiang Feng even more afraid was that the Shatuo people did not contempt and reject magic like the northern vassals and Hu people. On the contrary, they attached the most importance to magic and magic among the northern vassals. They could realize that magic and magic can help them with relatively shortcomings, so they spared no effort in this regard.

So Jiang Feng sometimes thought that if he dragged on, he would have more time to integrate, but he would also give Dajin, who destroyed Daliang, the opportunity to integrate.

Unless you can have a longer time, such as two or three years, you may be able to crush the opponent by relying on the accumulated strength in magic and the improvement in the strength brought by climbing the technology tree.

But the Shatuo people could not give themselves so much time. After half a year, Jiang Feng estimated that this should be the limit, but this was far from enough for him. Instead of doing so, it would be better to take this opportunity to be tougher and make enough profits. Anyway, you will have to fight in the end.

Nanyang and Caizhou will never stand on the same front with themselves, because they know very well that the Shatuo people will not aim their blades at them before they solve their problems, so they will be fearless.

It is precisely this complicated relationship that makes Jiang Feng grasp this scale when considering the war with Caizhou. He not only ensures the interests of Xuzhou, but also avoids the inability to step down, and is forced to fight with Xuzhou, and even does not accept compromise.

"Prince Prince!"

The guard's re-reminder made Jiang Feng wake up from his thoughts.

"The Tuyuhun people have come to do it?"

"They have arrived outside the hall."

"Then please invite them in." Jiang Feng nodded with a smile.

The Tuyuhun people finally came, and they were not stupid. They realized that the danger that Shatu people might bring to them after entering the Central Plains was gradually increasing, and the stimulated Khitans might also stare at them like tigers and wolves. Between these two families, they were afraid they were also trembling.

*********************

Bai Mulan stood outside the hall with her lips pouting, her eyes a little more annoyed.

This is how the Prince of Pengcheng treats guests?

Do you really think that the Tuyuhun people have something to ask for?

Doesn’t he need an ally like the Tuyuhun people?

The old man standing next to the green-eyed boy was also a little nervous. He didn't know why the other party ignored his group so much.

Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case.

Before coming, he thought carefully that although his side needed the other party's support, the situation in Xuzhou was also not optimistic. Not only did the Shatu people say that the threats of the Khitans were increasing. Maybe he should talk to the other party about the latest situation of the Khitans.

"Hey, Jiang Feng, Jiang Feng!"

The boy's pretended to be rude suddenly came to his ears, which scared the old man, "Shaojun! What are you doing?"

"Hey, isn't it a pity that there are friends coming from afar? Are you Han people treating guests like this?" The young man with blue eyes ignored his companion, but instead looked at the rushing guards in front of the hall with a provocative look on his face, looking proud.

The elderly man almost covered his face with his young master's performance. He had known for a long time that something would happen if he came, but he didn't expect such a mess to happen when he was about to go into battle.

Jiang Feng is no longer the same as other times. The Prince of Pengcheng led more than 20 states and ruled tens of millions of people, dozens of times that of Tuyuhun people. Although the two sides needed each other at this time, such a huge gap still made the old man a little brave.

Jiang Feng also heard the noise at the door. When the guard introduced the situation, Jiang Feng also found it interesting. The Tuyuhun man actually sent such a young man to come. It seemed that his identity was extraordinary. It seemed that the Tuyuhun man really felt the pressure.

When the young man and his companion stepped into the hall, Jiang Feng could see at a glance that the other party was actually a girl. After surprise, he guessed that the girl should have the surname Bai or Helian, and most of them were direct descendants.

Since the Tuyuhun people were defeated by An Chongrong, the Helian surname among the Tuyuhun people, replaced by the Bai surname, and Bai Chengfu was the leader.

Under Bai Chengfu's leadership, the Tuyuhun people began to survive in a difficult situation between Hedong and the Khitans in the northeast under the control of the Shatu people, and gradually recovered by taking advantage of the ally relationship with Daliang, and gradually gained a foothold in Yunzhou, Weizhou, Guizhou, Daizhou and Shuozhou.

Hundreds of thousands of Tuyuhun people, Han people and some miscellaneous people live in these five prefectures, but Tuyuhun people also followed the practice of Shatuo people, and both farming and herds were suitable. The Han people worked as farmers, and Tuyuhun people and miscellaneous people grazed. Therefore, the relationship between the Han people and the Tuyuhun people was still good. It is precisely because of this that the Tuyuhun people always hoped to establish a good relationship with the Han vassal vassals so that the Tuyuhun people could survive on this land, especially when facing the squeeze of Shatuo people and the Khitans.

"You are Jiang Feng, oh, Prince Pengcheng? So young?"

Hearing the green-eyed young man called Jiang Feng's name directly, the guards in the hall shouted loudly, and the old man hurriedly came forward to apologize. However, Jiang Feng waved his hand disregardlessly and said with a smile: "I am Jiang Feng, who is the little girl's name?"

"You Han women say you cannot reveal your boudoir name, but we Tuyuhun people have no boudoir, only tents. My name is Bai Zhen'er. My father is Bai Chengfu and my mother is Helian Zheng." Seeing through by Jiang Feng, the young man with a blue-eyed eyes, no, the girl with blue-eyed eyes responded cheerfully: "This time, I will be on my father's order to go to Xuzhou."

It turns out that he is a cheerful woman, Bai Chengfu's daughter, Bai Mulan? This name is interesting, probably because he envies Mulan?

Mother Helianzheng? Helianduo's sister?

Jiang Feng certainly knew something about the Tuyuhun people. Helianduo lost power, but Bai Chengfu was Helianduo's sister-in-law and the leader of the Bai family.

Although the leadership of the Tuyuhun people, led by the two surnames, still maintained a close relationship and did not split, because both surnames knew that the Tuyuhun people would be killed if they were in civil strife. The Shatu people and the Khitans did not mind swallowing this piece of fat meat. The land of the five states, even the land outside the frontier, were still mouth-watering.

"Hehe, Bai Mulan, a good name, Mulan who was conquering his father?" Jiang Feng smiled. He didn't know whether the story of Mulan joining the army for her father among these nomadic peoples outside the northern border was circulated.

"Hey, the prince knows this song too?" The girl with blue eyes was very surprised, and she was also a little happy in her surprise.

This folk song circulating on the grassland is also known in the Central Plains, which really surprised her, especially the Prince of Pengcheng, who started in Huainan. He heard that martial arts is very talented, but he is not proficient in poetry and songs. He can actually know that this folk song circulating on the grasslands in the north also made the girl feel a little closer to Jiang Feng.

"Well, I've learned a little about Yuefu poems and heard them, which is really touching." Jiang Feng didn't expect that he and the girl from Tuyuhun were talking about this topic. "Miss Mulan must have obtained this name himself, right?"

"How do you know?" said the girl with green eyes in surprise.

Jiang Feng was a little funny. Who would have chosen Mulan, a name that was circulated everywhere? Even Hu people did not encourage women to replace men in the army. It was mostly because this girl felt something, so she gave herself this name.

"I guess." Jiang Feng hadn't been so relaxed for a long time.

"Well, no wonder." The girl with green eyes widened her eyes. Her green eyes looked particularly crystal clear, with a mysterious luster. "By the way, Prince, this time we are here to pay homage to the Prince and congratulate the Prince. In addition, there are some things that I want to talk to the Prince. It's up to you to talk to the Prince. Please tell me about the specific matters of Uncle Qi."

Seeing the girl giving the specific matters to the old man beside her, Jiang Feng felt more and more interesting. He seemed to be very self-aware. He knew that he was not proficient in major affairs involving the two families and was calm about handing over power.

The next conversation will be much more formal. As a representative of the Tuyuhun people, Bai Chengshou talked about continuing to provide war horses to the Xuzhou army, but this is not the most important. Bai Chengshou focused on introducing the current sharp changes in the situation on the northern grassland. Although Wuwentang also strengthened the intelligence spy collection in the northern land, since the current focus of Xuzhou is still on the Central Plains, Hedong, Nanyang, Caizhou, like the northern part of Heshuo and on the grassland outside the border, the Tuyuhun people obviously need to know more about this.

"The Khitans defeated the Hejie tribe in the south of Julunbo. Some of the remaining Hejie tribes have fled to the southwest to the northern part of our Tuyuhun people. And according to the news they brought, the Khitans also conquered the Wei people in the West, and the Uro Ministry of Housing has also surrendered to the Khitans. Now the power of the Khitans has expanded rapidly, and their nobles are driving a large number of slaves captured in the war to go south,..."

Jiang Feng's face changed slightly.

He didn't expect that Bai Chengshou would bring him such news, which was something that Wu Wentang had never learned before.

However, it is no wonder that the Khitans' conquest in the swamped forest areas in the northeast has always been intermittent, and the savage tribes living in the forest have also surrendered and sometimes rebelled. This is also a major hidden danger to the north of the Khitans. I didn't expect that the Khitans have achieved such a record in the past two years.
