Chapter 71
Zhao Rui suddenly became impatient when he saw many tribal leaders discussing at the scene.
"Don't be so stingy. Sometimes you have to learn from Rouran! They almost dedicated most of the family's property to Dashang. Now the leader of Rouran has been made king by Dashang, and they have also been granted permission to have relations with Dashang.
The right to trade.”
The scene suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes showed a trace of expectation.
It's not that I envy the leader of Rouran for being crowned king, but I envy the power of trade.
With this right, they could exchange the cattle and sheep skins of their respective tribes for various items from the Central Plains Dynasty.
You must know that in most tribes, many people are in extremely short supply of daily necessities, not even iron pots for cooking.
These things can only be exchanged from the Central Plains!
"I agree to negotiate peace terms!"
I don't know who shouted, and the other tribal leaders suddenly became nervous. They rushed to Zhao Rui to sign and pledge, for fear of being a step too late.
Only the Huns envoy knelt there and refused to come forward.
Zhao Rui's face was solemn, he did not expect the Huns to negotiate peace with Da.
The giants on this grassland are not as easy to talk to as other tribes.
Although they have lost more than 300,000 elites in the past two months, as long as they are given some more time, they can assemble a large army again, and then coerce the various tribes on the grassland to form a coalition again.
"Please also send your things to Dashang Imperial City as soon as possible. Someone will contact you about the details of the trade!"
Zhao Rui ignored the Xiongnu envoys and only met the leaders of the tribes. After discussing some details, he and Shan Xin returned to the city.
It didn't take long for the 300,000 coalition troops stationed at Wula Pass to retreat.
At this point, the border troubles in the north have finally come to an end.
Next, we have to think about how to fully integrate the vast grasslands in the north into the territory of Dashang.
Zhao Rui did not stay here any longer. He simply cleaned up, put the head of King Zuo Xian in his head, and returned to the imperial city with a few entourage.
Before leaving, Shan Xin was reluctant to leave and took his trusted cavalry all the way for more than ten miles.
The news that the northern frontier army had defeated the 500,000-strong grassland coalition force quickly spread back to the imperial city.
Zhao Rui's name once again made the entire imperial city tremble, and Shan Xin's name was also called out at the same time.
"Master Zhao and General Shan's grandson joined forces and reportedly killed more than 200,000 Huns!"
"Master Zhao is really my lucky star as a great merchant. It's a pity that he is an eunuch, otherwise I would have betrothed my daughter to him!"
"General Shan Xin is truly worthy of being the Queen of the Generals. I heard that King Zuoxian of the Xiongnu was shot to death by him."
...
In addition to public discussion, some rumors will be created to some extent, but most of them do not have any bad intentions, they just deify Zhao Rui.
Before things on the northern border calmed down, another explosive news came from the west.
Bai Hua led 20,000 horses to surround and kill Jie Di's 80,000 cavalry. They marched 300 miles out of the Cangyun Mountain Fortress, fought and won consecutive battles, and captured the leader of Chi Di and his royal family members, and were escorting them on their way back to the imperial city.
At this time, Bai Hua's reputation also spread in the imperial city, and the once-prominent Bai family of Longcheng was mentioned again.
However, the people of Dashang still remember that both Bai Hua and Shan Xin were talents discovered by Zhao Rui.
