MTL - I Built a Territory in Ancient Times-Chapter 178 Festival
people. He also knew that Song Lian brought it up here because he didn't want him to continue to be depressed.
Seeing the moving expression on Tuoba Ren's face, Song Lian made persistent efforts, "Your Highness, it's not the one who kills the enemy to be the hero. There is a saying in the Central Plains that victory or defeat is common in military affairs. Man is doomed to fail forever."
Tuoba Ren smiled bitterly, "This king understands what Mr. Song means, but, this king is in the game, and there is always a last resort. You have also seen the situation of this king, listen to it, the sound of silk and bamboo singing and dancing is endless. , It is the king who is entertaining King Liangu. Nowadays, the reputation of Helian and silk is unmatched in the royal court, and even the king has to retreat three times. How can this king and this king contend with him?”
He paused and said sincerely: "Actually, this king invited Mr. Song to come, just to let Mr. Song's talents show off, and to recommend Mr. Song to King Khan. I wonder what Mr. Song thinks?"
Song Lian narrowed her eyes, unsure whether Tuoba Ren's words were sincere or deliberate. What is his purpose in doing this?
If it is recommended to him sincerely, then whether he can complete his revenge by the side of King Khan, yes, he wants to avenge all those who are sorry for him. He knew that his revenge could not be avenged in his entire life by his own strength, and coming here was also the result of his scheming. If he wants to take advantage of the situation, he can only take advantage of the situation of Suixi to subvert the Dayan country.
And if it was a deliberate test, then he would have to figure out how to make Tuoba Ren satisfied.
"Why did the lord say this?" Song Lian's mind turned quickly, but he said: "The lord has a kindness to Lian, and Lian will definitely try his best to repay this kindness. The lord should know what kind of person Lian is, even if he is jealous, he will repay it. But also reciprocated."
Tuoba Ren didn't say anything, Song Lian didn't know what he was thinking, he considered it for a while and then said: "Lian came to the borderland because he offended the powerful in the capital, so he hid in the borderland as a last resort. When it was difficult, I met Song Qingfu to help him, so I stayed by Song Qingfu's side to advise him and help him develop his power."
"I just didn't expect that Song Qingfu had too much heart and didn't listen to me, and eventually fell into Duan Wang's trap and was caught up by Duan Wang. Lian managed to escape, but Duan Wang issued a hunting order. Lord, I have Lian today."
These words are true, he said it himself, but also to ease the worries in Tuoba Ren's heart. After so long, Tuoba Ren must have also investigated his past. It is better to take the initiative to explain it than to hide it and let Tuoba Ren trust him.
He had already thought about it just now, if he was really recommended to King Khan by Tuoba Ren, he would just be an idle minister at best, a marginal person. Looking at the situation of the royal court, it is not monolithic, the various forces are intricate, and even the prestige of King Khan is not satisfactory. It is better to follow Tuoba Ren instead of wandering in the intrigue of the royal court.
Although Tuoba Ren's reputation had plummeted because of his previous defeat, he knew that Tuoba Ren was not the one who easily admit defeat.
On the other hand, Tuoba Ren has ambitions and ambitions. He wants to defeat Dayan, make extraordinary achievements, and be a hero of the grasslands, and he is admired by everyone. This person is the most beneficial to him. Although their goals are different, their goals are the same, and they are all enemies of Dayan.
In this way, if he has suggestions and suggestions, and joins forces with Tuoba Ren, with his own ability, it is not impossible to overthrow the Dayan court in the future. Even if he can't get to the last step, he still has to make trouble and give Emperor Dayan a headache, so that the evil spirit in his heart can be released. This is his most correct choice.
Song Lian fixedly looked at Tuoba Ren, stood up and bowed deeply, and said sincerely, "Your Highness, no matter what your Highness is, Lian is willing to follow Your Highness. As long as Your Highness is determined, Lian is willing to help His Highness break Shi Chongguan and attack the capital of Dayan. ."
Song Lian's words of loyalty really made Tuoba Ren feel happy, and Tuoba Ren needed a talent like Song Lian. He had already sent someone to inquire about Song Lian's past, and he knew that Song Lian was capable. He is ruthless, resourceful, and has a deep understanding of Dayan. With his help, he can be said to be even more powerful.
Tuoba Ren's pale fingers rubbed the teacup, and he laughed out loud after Song Lian's voice fell for a long time. Tuoba Ren got up and walked over, helped Song Lian up, and said with a smile: "Okay! Very good! This king has Mr. Song to help, why can't you achieve your wish?"
Song Lian was overjoyed. She already knew that Tuoba Ren believed him completely. It seemed that she made the right move.
After taking his seat again, Tuoba Ren took out the report just now, "Mr. Song, please read this report first and tell us your opinion."
Song Lian took it, glanced at ten lines, read the words on the report, and asked in confusion, "My lord, what does this Xiqi corridor mean?"

144 Chapter 144
He had never heard of this name before, and the only thing he knew was Xiqi Mountain, which was between Suixi and Wuliang.
Tuoba Ren stood up, walked to the big map behind him, and pointed to a place, which was the Xiqi Mountains. The explanation explained: "This is made by King Duan of Dayan. He is going to build a passage in this narrow and long valley to connect the Western Regions."
Song Lian also stepped forward and followed Tuoba Ren's finger.
Tuoba Ren went on to say: "This is the area between Suixi and Wuliang. Because there are mountains and mountains on both sides, the road is obstructed and dangerous. No one goes to this place at all, and it has become a barren land over time. Our two countries have a tacit understanding of this as the border between the two countries. So this place has become a land of no one."
Song Lian rubbed her chin and stared at the map carefully. After a long time, she asked, "What did King Duan create this Xiqi Corridor? Logically speaking, this place is useless at all."
"Look at this again." Tuoba Ren took out another secret letter and handed it to Song Lian.
This is the news sent by the spies from the frontier. After Ming Yu returned to Beijing, he called a lot of merchants to the frontier. And Mingyu's Xiqi Corridor is to facilitate trade with countries in the Western Regions.
Song Lian was silent after reading it. He didn't understand business matters. In the past, he only studied for the imperial examinations and becoming an official. In the future, his career will skyrocket. In his view, doing business is the job of inferior talents.
Now, a Dayan Prince is actually cooperating with the merchants, spending a lot of time on what corridors are just for the sake of trade? Song Lian thought it was incredible.
After Song Lian finished reading, Tuoba Ren asked, "I wonder what Mr. Song thinks?"
Song Lian frowned and pondered for a long time before he said: "Duan Wang wants to use this road to trade in the Western Regions. Lian doesn't know anything about doing business, so he won't comment on this. However, what I want to say next is that Duan Since the king wants this place, he will definitely build a city defense pass and deploy troops to guard it."
Tuoba Ren nodded and motioned for him to continue.
Song Lian then said again: "I am a little worried, if this place really falls into the hands of Dayan, it will be harmful to the Suixi country and nothing will be beneficial."
Tuoba Ren's expression froze, he paced a few times with his hands behind his back, and asked, "How do you say this?"
"Because the Suixi Kingdom was lying between Dayan and the Western Regions, there was no connection between the two sides. But if King Duan, under the guise of trading the Western Regions, secretly made the countries of the Western Regions as enemies of the Suixi Kingdom, wouldn't the Suixi Kingdom be Become an enemy on the back and belly?"
Tuoba Ren stopped when he heard the words, covered his mouth and coughed several times.
Seeing that he had no intention of stopping him, Song Lian continued: "If Dayan is allowed to garrison here, the terrain will be easy to defend and difficult to attack. The Suixi Kingdom is famous for its iron cavalry, but here, the iron cavalry is unable to play its role due to the terrain. Advantages. And if Dayan soldiers have the will, they can invade Suixi country from the Xiqi Corridor at any time, and then Suixi country will have no defense at all, but Dayan's army can be like no one."
After saying this, Tuoba Ren's face changed, he clenched his fists, his heart was agitated, and he coughed even more.
"Hahaha... What a joke!" Someone outside laughed and pushed the door open. The two of them in the room looked up at the same time, but saw a tall figure at the door, it was Cha Chaqi.
Chachaqi returned with Tuoba Ren's defeat last time, but he did not have any dissatisfaction or complaining about Tuoba Ren, but admired Tuoba Ren.
Because he also experienced that unbelievable battle, and he still has lingering fears in retrospect. But I have to say that Tuoba Ren's coping ability is admirable.
In the face of the soldiers who were so scared that they lost their souls, Tuoba Ren brought them out by himself. If it wasn't for Tuoba Ren to make a decisive decision, the losses they suffered would be immeasurable.
Tuoba Ren's ability to lead the army is unparalleled. It can be said that as long as Tuoba Ren is in the army, the spirit of the army is there, and the centripetal force of the soldiers is there. can do this,
