"King, as expected, the country of Fulimet could not help but send troops after receiving the news." Liu Ji's two "really" illustrates the excitement in his heart at this moment.

"This is not just right!" Yang Song felt it was natural when he heard the news. He smiled slightly and said, "The plan can continue so smoothly, thank you and others for planning and working hard."

"King." Liu Ji bowed and said, "This is what my ministers should do. If the king treats me so well, I will definitely devote myself to it."

"So good." Yang Song tried hard to help Liu Ji, no longer politely, and asked directly: "From Bowen, how long will the forces outside the pass endure last?"

Liu Ji knew that Yang Song was asking how long it would take for the forces outside the pass to come to contact with the subordinates. He thought carefully and replied: "Report to the king, as far as the ministers see, it will not exceed the maximum period."

In fact, the forces outside the pass did not persist for half a month. Within ten days of fighting in Nanshan City, some people on the joint side could not hold on.

In Nanshan City, Andre, like other lords, handed over the army to his subordinates' Knight Commander, quietly waited for the news and the news of victory.

However, since the war, none of the news that comes every day is good news, all of which are "stalemate", "heavy losses", and "request for support"...

Even if there is good news, Andrei would not have such a thought. He turned to Xia Kingdom for help, because once he asked for help from Xia Kingdom, it would mean that he would surrender to Xia Kingdom.

After several days of thinking and communication with other lords, Andrei could figure it out that everything now is the conspiracy of Xia Kingdom.

The Xia Kingdom first sent troops to attack the Fulimet Kingdom, and then sent people to incite them to "betray" the Fulimet Kingdom, and then immediately ignored it and even threw out a "vassal" of it.

Finally, the news was deliberately spread to the country of Folimet, and the country of Folimet attacked them. And because of their rebels, Parker fled in panic, Parker held a grudge against them, and they had no choice but to surrender, so they could only bear the attack of Folimet.

This is simply a trick. Although Andre didn't know the name, he knew that he didn't want to die yet, so he had to surrender to the Xia Kingdom and be a vassal. This way he could go.

"Hey, how do these Xia people have brains?" Andrei sighed and ordered to the trusted guards: "If you go to the south and find Xia people, just say that I, Andrei, are willing to surrender to Xia and be a vassal. Please send troops to rescue the respected Xia people as soon as possible."

After saying that, Andrei repeatedly emphasized to the guards: "Remember to lower your attitude, don't hate the people of Xia. By the way, bring all these Xia coins with you, don't be heartbroken, use them as long as you should."

"Yes, I obey the order." The guard took a stack of banknotes from Andre and replied respectfully: "Please rest assured, Lord Lord, I know what to do."

"That's good." Andrey waved his hand and asked the guards to go down, walked to the window, looked at the black smoke floating in the direction of the city wall, and said to himself: "I hope it's time. I hope Xia Guo can fulfill his promise, hope..." The following words were no longer clear, and even Andrey himself didn't know what he said in the end.

When Andrei's guards sent by him felt that Pingguan City and explained his purpose to the Xia army stationed here, he successfully arrived at Guihua City. The important officials of Xia Country did not come to meet him at all, but instead arranged the guards in the inn and ignored them.

After two days, the guard knew why Xia Kingdom didn't meet him. It turned out that people were sent from other territories. Although the guards did not find out about the purpose of these people, he knew that the purpose of these people was mostly the same as his.

On this day, it was the third day that Andre's guards arrived in Guihua City. Finally, they waited for the notice from Xia Guo to receive him. Including the time on the road, he had been away from Nanshan City for five days. He didn't know whether Nanshan City could still be defended, nor did he know how Xia Guo treats him.

Amid the worry and anxiety of the guards, they walked into the Governor's Mansion in the center of Guihua City with the rest of the people. They were greeted by a strong man with a beard and a goatee. The natives were no longer surprised by these unique outfits of the Xia people.

Chen Ping and Zhou Yi sat on the top and asked the seven people who came to stand in the middle of the hall without asking for a seat. Chen Ping pretended not to know how to speak in an indigenous language: "Everyone, please tell me your purpose."

The guards sent by Andrei took the lead and said, "The two respected Lords of Xia, the youngest ones were sent by Lord Andrei, who came to ask for help on behalf of Lord Andrei."

"So too, I represent..." Then the other six people also expressed their intentions in a similar manner, all of whom came to ask Xia Guo to send troops to support him.

"So that's it." After Chen Ping and seven others finished speaking, they said slowly: "I know your purpose, and compared to you, I also know that my country has said first and it doesn't matter to my country, and I don't care about it."

Seeing that the people of Xia did not see the rabbit or show their eagles, the guards had to say truthfully: "Our lord knows about Xia, so this time the young one came to surrender to Xia, and they were willing to be a vassal. They hoped that the powerful Xia State would send troops as soon as possible. Nanshan City was almost unable to hold on."

"Yes, our lord is also willing to be a vassal of Xia State." "Nanshan City is really about to be unable to hold on." "I would also like to ask Xia State to send troops to rescue quickly, it would be too late if it is too late."...

When Chen Ping heard these people's words, he knew that these people had no experience in negotiations at all, so he could not tell them if they were slightly troubled by the other party. Isn't this putting his neck under the other party's knife?

So Chen Ping smiled slightly and said seriously: "Since that's the case, you will sign this subsidiary statement and wait until the country's rescue is completed, and then the vassal ceremony will be officially held!"

Immediately after the seven people signed the Daming on their lord, Chen Ping immediately passed the news to Yang Song, who was far away in Tianqi City.

After Yang Song got what he wanted, he immediately ordered Li Jing, who had been ahead, to lead three brigades to rescue the territory outside the pass.

In this world, the attitude of Xia Kingdom or Yang Song is completely different from those of the previous dynasties, and the attitude towards vassal states is completely different.

Because of their own strength and the limitations of the times, the dynasties in the past in China said that for the weak surrounding countries, “The king will not rule the barbarians, and will not refuse those who come, and will not pursue those who go.”

The so-called "tributive" is just a good-looking appearance on the surface. In fact, the vassal states that come to "tributive" get more benefits, and even make the surrounding vassal states very keen on "tributing", so that dynasties in poverty and weak periods must also stipulate the number and value of tribute to prevent "rewards" from being given.

But Yang Song had the eyes of later generations and knew that this superficial attitude would not work. He wanted actual benefits. Of course, he also wanted them on the surface!
