The current situation proves the point of view of the wolf cavalry. They don't know the dangers of this grassland. Without the protection and help provided by the wolf cavalry, they would not even be able to get here, let alone educate them.

"Will Xianbei people still come?" Jiang Gan squinted his eyes, trying to see figures from the chaotic snowflakes.

This feeling made him very uneasy.

"I don't know." Zhou Yu handed over a flat silver jug. "Take a sip to warm up your body. When the Xianbei people come later, we can't let them look down on you."

Jiang Gan took the jug and took a big gulp.

The wine was given by Lu Bu. It has a spicy taste, feels like a knife in the throat, and has a medicinal smell.It is said that medicinal materials are soaked in it, which can enhance Yang Qi and resist the cold.

After a while, Jiang Gan really felt warmer, at least not shaking anymore.

He wanted to take another sip, but Zhou Yu stopped him.

"The medicine is three-point poisonous, so don't overdose." Zhou Yu grabbed the hip flask and stuffed it into his clothes.

"Is there really any medicine?"

"This is a prescription prepared by the Imperial Medical Office. The wine is also specially made. It is said that it needs to be steamed nine times."

Jiang Gan took a breath. "So much trouble? Isn't that very expensive?"

"No matter how expensive it is, it is cheaper than the luggage of thousands of people. With these things, my big Han iron cavalry can be unstoppable, and the Xianbei and Huns dare not invade my frontier fortress with only three thousand elite cavalry."

Jiang Gan laughed twice, and Zhou Yu suddenly raised his hand.

"Someone is here." Zhou Yu said softly.

Jiang Gan closed his mouth and looked into the distance.

In the wind and snow, several figures were getting closer and clearer, and they gradually walked in front of them. In the middle was a bald boy with loose hair, riding a tall horse with open arms, showing his strong body. muscles.

The few knights on the side were all wearing leather jackets, carrying bows and arrows, swords and spears, full of murderous looks.

"I didn't expect the Han people to carry the cold like this." The young man sat on the saddle with his legs crossed, and said with a smile, speaking Chinese very authentically.He sniffed and his eyes lit up. "Drinking? What kind of wine, can you let me have a taste?"

Zhou Yu took out the jug from his bosom, held it in his hand, kicked his horse and took two steps forward, and threw the jug over.

The boy caught it, sniffed again, and squeezed his eyes. "You Han people are really particular. Both men and women are delicious." He opened the pot of wine, and then raised his eyebrows. "So it's medicinal wine. I thought you guys were really not afraid of the cold, so..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Yu drew his long sword out of its sheath and pressed it against the boy's throat.

"You..." The boy changed his color and stared at Zhou Yu with a hideous expression.

Zhou Yu retracted his sword, picked up the jug with the tip of the sword, took it back, and said flatly: "My wine is only for friends. You speak badly, and you are not worthy of being my friend, so you are not worthy of drinking this wine."

Chapter 779

The boy's fair skin turned red, and then turned livid again.He waved his hand, and the knight on the side raised his bow almost instantly, put on an arrow, and the arrow pointed directly at Zhou Yu.

The attendants behind Zhou Yu also raised the crossbow, and rested their fingers on the crossbow machine.

Zhou Yu raised the jug, took a sip of the wine, savored it relish, put the jug away, glanced sideways at the young man, and snorted.

"Why don't you do it?"

The boy's face twitched twice, and then he laughed again. "I was wrong just now and offended you. I apologize to you, let me have a drink."

"Report your name."

"Yan Ming, the young wolf leader of the Wild Wolf Tribe." The young man said with a smile, "I still have a Xianbei name. I guess you don't have much interest in it, so I won't talk about it."

"You speak Chinese well, where did you learn it?"

"In Xihe. I grew up in Xihe. Thanks to the favor of you Han people, I even studied for a year."

"Since that's the case, why did you go back to the grassland and make an enemy of my big man?"

"I went back to the grassland, but I didn't want to be an enemy of the big man, but because I prefer a free life on the grassland." Yan Ming opened his arms and caught the snowflakes with his palms. "I don't like that kind of unchanging life, and I don't like you Han people treating us like livestock, so I came back."

"You young wolf master also picked it up?"

Yan Ming smiled. "That's right, isn't this more comfortable than herding sheep for you?"

"It's your freedom to choose what kind of life to live, and we don't care about it. But if you harass me repeatedly, it won't work. If I remember correctly, the real young wolf master of the wild wolf tribe was beheaded by my Han army. You If you really like this kind of free life, don't come to provoke us."

Zhou Yu smiled slightly. "Didn't the old wolf master teach you not to provoke wolf riders?"

"The old wolf is dead, I killed it." Yan Ming snorted. "He was scared out of his wits by the wolf riders, how can he still lead the wild wolf tribe. If there are no useless people on the grassland, he should have died a long time ago."

"Oh?" Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes slightly. "Then who is the commander-in-chief of the wild tribe now?"

"A she-wolf."

Zhou Yu pondered for a while. "Alinman?"

"Isn't that surprising?" Yan Ming said with a smile: "The women on our grasslands are more ruthless and stronger than your Han women."

Zhou Yu laughed twice, and put the sword back into its sheath. "Whether you are strong or not is not what you say. It depends on who wins and who loses on the battlefield. You have said so much, the next step is to take us to meet this female wolf, or do it now and fight to the death?"

"Do you dare to meet her?"

"Why not? Lead the way."

Yan Ming stared at Zhou Yu twice, shook his head, and signaled his subordinates to put away their bows and arrows.He turned the horse's head, walked side by side with Zhou Yu, and smacked his lips.

"That... let me have a couple of sips of wine, okay?"

Zhou Yu turned to look at him, thought for a while, took out the jug, and threw it over.

Yan Ming was overjoyed, pulled out the cork, took a sip of wine, sighed in satisfaction, then took another sip, re-corked it, but did not return it to Zhou Yu, but stuffed it into his sleeve.

"Apart from weapons, the best thing you Han people have is wine."

Zhou Yu and Jiang Gan exchanged a look.

-

Alinman was wearing a thick bearskin, hunched over, sitting by the firepit, watching the flickering fire light in a trance.There are a few shallow wrinkles on her forehead, and some white hair on her temples.

It was only when she heard the footsteps outside that she came back to her senses, straightened her body immediately, her face became majestic, and a wolf-like chill appeared in her eyes.

Yan Ming entered the account, hurried to Alinman, and knelt on the ground.

"Grandma, the Han Chinese envoys have brought it."

Alinman nodded and glanced at Yan Ming. "you've been drinking?"

"Drink... a sip. It's sent by the Han Chinese envoy, so I can't refuse."

"The Han people are cunning, aren't you afraid that they will poison you?"

"I saw that they drank it before they drank it."

Alynman frowned slightly. "Ah Sang, everything else is fine with you, but it's not good to be greedy for alcohol. People will become stupid if they drink too much alcohol. At the beginning, Yan Liyou and Yan Chi both became stupid because they drank too much. They even gave birth to children. It's useless, I can only feed the wolves. Do you want to feed the wolves too?"

"Mom, I see." Yan Ming shivered involuntarily.

"Bring them in." Alinman waved his hand.

Yan Ming shouted to the outside, and after a while, Zhou Yu and Jiang Gan came in one after another, stood in front of Alinman, and bowed their hands in salute.

Alinman's eyes lit up. "A handsome young man from the Han family."

"What an ugly Xianbei old woman." Jiang Gan said.

Alinman's eyes shrank, Yan Ming jumped up, drew his knife out of its sheath, and pointed it at Jiang Gan. "Presumptuous, don't you want your tongue?"

Jiang Gan chuckled, stretched out his hand to push away Yan Ming's knife, walked to the opposite of Alinman, sat down, and stretched out his hand to warm the fire. "Why, don't you even dare to listen to the truth? Hiding here, deceiving yourself and others, can you inherit your father's behest and realize your spring and autumn dream of dominating the grassland?"

Alynman narrowed her eyes. "You know a lot?"

"Anyway, you are also a rare heroine on the grassland, stronger than many men. Since we are going to come to the grassland, we don't even know who you are, so how can we talk about it?"

Alinman's expression gradually eased, and he waved his hand, signaling Yan Ming to put away the knife, and invited Zhou Yu to take a seat.

"What else do you know?"

"I also know that you don't actually want to start a war with the big man, but want to be recognized by the big man and be a queen on the grassland."

Yan Ming was taken aback, and subconsciously looked at Alineman.

Alinman didn't change her face, and said lightly: "Is it possible?"

"Yes, but it's only possible. Whether you can succeed in the end depends on yourself." Jiang Gan smacked his lips. "We've come so far, don't you even have a stutter?"

Alinman was stunned, and quickly said to Yan Ming: "Go and prepare wine and meat for the distinguished guests."

Yan Mingzheng was very nervous and didn't want to leave at all, but he had to do it when Alinman ordered him to do so, so he walked quickly to the tent door and arranged for someone to do it, but his ears were listening to the movement behind him.

"For this matter, you have endured for so many years, from a young girl to white hair." Jiang Gan raised his head and looked at Alinman. "Have you ever regretted it?"

Alinman was silent for a moment, and let out a long sigh.

"I did regret it. But this is my life, and it's useless to regret it."

"If I had known this before, why bother? If King Tanshihuai had agreed to make a marriage at the beginning, how could you have come to this point? You don't want to see if you have the ability to fight against me. I don't know anything else, the Huns You must have heard the story, right?"

Alinman twisted her mouth. "Young man, don't tell me these things. The past is over. Just tell me, can the emperor of the Han family agree to my request?"

"As I said just now, it's possible, but it's only possible. Whether it can be done in the end depends on whether you can do a few things."

"Which ones?"

Jiang Gan glanced back at Yan Ming at the door of the tent, and then turned back. "The first thing is to submit a letter to surrender, is it okay?"

Alinman immediately nodded in agreement. "Can."

Standing at the door of the tent, Yan Ming saw Jiang Gan glance at him, but didn't understand what Jiang Gan asked for. Seeing that Alinman readily agreed, his heart tightened.

Chapter 780

Jiang Gan stared into Alinman's eyes, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"What's wrong?" Alineman cocked her mouth, looking displeased.

"I don't think you can become Tanshihuai."

Alinman frowned, with a murderous look looming. "Of course I can't be my father. What do you want to say? Young man, don't challenge my patience."

"Do you know why you can't be your father?"

"..." Alinman stared at Jiang Gan, her face became more and more gloomy, like ice.

"You promised too readily." Jiang Gan said slowly: "I have enough reasons to suspect that you just want to fool me to achieve your own goals, and then fight back. But you forgot, the reason why your dad Apart from his talent, the most important thing to be able to rule the grassland is that he keeps his word and keeps his word."

Two Xianbei women brought wine and meat, Jiang Gan poured a glass of wine, took a sip, then smacked his lips, and said to Yan Ming: "Your wine is really bad, no wonder you don't like it."

Yan Ming looked embarrassed and glanced at Alineman uneasily.

Alinman stared at Jiang Gan, thoughtful.

Jiang Gan put down his wine glass, and continued, "We Han people have a saying, I don't know if you've heard of it."

"What?"

"A man cannot stand without faith." Jiang Gan turned to Yan Ming. "When we left Chang'an, we heard something. This year is the first batch of naturalized Xianbei and Huns. The court is about to fulfill its promise. At this moment, relevant statistics should be in progress. At the end of this year, There will be some people who will become accounts of my big man. Do you know the difference in accounts?"

Yan Ming pouted. "What difference? It's not the same."

"Because I become a registered household of a big man, there will be relief in times of disaster, old people over seventy can get rewards from the court, children of school age can go to school, and young warriors like you can join the army. Next year you will disturb the side At that time, the one who confronted you may be your former companion."

Yan Ming's face changed slightly, and then he said, "So what? I'm not afraid of them."

"Are you afraid of them? I don't know. I only know that they will have weapons and armor issued by the imperial court, and there will be real generals commanding them to fight."

He smiled. "For now, it should be Lu Bu, the wolf riding governor."

Alinman and Yan Ming's bodies trembled at the same time, and their faces turned pale.

Even the maid on the side changed her face, as if she heard the devil's name.

The wild wolf tribe was once attacked by wolf riders at night. There are legends of wolf riders everywhere on the grassland. No one wants to hear this name.

After a moment of silence, Alinman said slowly: "I didn't lie."

"Then give me a reason to believe in you." Jiang Gan put away his smile, his eyes sharp. "You want to restore your father's glory, why are you willing to surrender to my big man?"

Alinman let out a long sigh, and unconsciously arched her back.

"We... can't hold on any longer, so we can only ask you for help."

"Who is threatening you?"
