C35 (2/2)

Ban Chao kneeled on the ground, ”It is indeed Ban Chao. ”We pay our respects to Your Majesty!”

”You all … Hello... ”Good, good, good,” stammered the Shansan king, and said a few words of good, and those who did not know it thought they were praising Ban Chao and the others. The king calmed down, paused, and then blurted out, ”How dare you!” Although it took a lot of effort, to say the words ”you are brave” sounded pale and powerless in front of these warriors. To Ban Chao, this was the same as bullshitting. However, the other party held an esteemed position, so Ban Chao had to treat him with respect. Thus, he bowed first.

It seemed that the king had no intention of forming an alliance with the burly man even after he said such words. Now, he could only take a step further and force him to submit. At this time, there were close to three thousand soldiers and horses in the city, each of them had a sword in hand, so there was no way they could survive.

It turned out that the thing was a black head. Due to the fire being too strong, the head had already been burnt black, and the nose, eyes, and mouth had all turned into a few black holes. One could only vaguely see the appearance of a person, but no one knew who he was when he was alive.

Ban Chao took a step forward and shouted, ”Your Majesty, the northern Huns' spies have been killed by us. The Huns will not dare to harass us anymore.”

”Nonsense …” ”Nonsense …” The Shansan King said incoherently, ”When do I want you to kill them?”

Ban Chao smiled, ”The Huns' spies want to assassinate His Majesty. Don't tell me we have to wait until he gets his hands on them before we kill them? Highness, how much money and manpower did you spend on building such a tall building for the Huns and how much money and manpower did the Huns spend? ”I am afraid that the people of Shanshan have long complained. Now that they want to assassinate his majesty, I will help his majesty by setting up the law and protect his safety. I hope that his majesty can observe clearly!”

The King of Shanshan knew that Ban Chao was spitting blood. He felt angry and scared. He kept breathing heavily, but he couldn't say a word.

Ban Chao was calm and collected as he said in a clear voice, ”Your Majesty, although we have eliminated the assassins, the Huns are vicious and have failed in their first plan. Since we have come up with a second plan, we will not let this matter rest.”

When the king of Shanshan heard this, his face turned ashen. No matter who killed the Huns, they still died in Shanshan. If he used this as an excuse to extort blame for his actions, how could a small country like himself bear the consequences? Even if he tied Ban Chao up and sent him to the Huns, so what? If this was used as an excuse to send out troops to attack, then he wouldn't be able to withstand it either.

The king only felt that he was stuck between a rock and a hard place, and for a moment he did not know what to do. The spectators were cheering loudly, as if no one really cared about the death of the Huns.

It turned out that Ban Chao's words had reached the heart of the crowd. From the moment Wang Mang had usurped the throne, the Central Plains had been thrown into chaos, the Eastern Han Dynasty and the other countries of the Western Regions had gradually distanced themselves, and the Huns had often come to Shanshan to bully the good people. Ban Chao had also been asking around in the people these days, and he had already figured out the situation. The removal of the Huns was the result of the hearts of the people of Shanshan.

Seeing that the king was still hesitating, Ban Chao said, ”Fellow elders, in three days, my big size will send people to station in Shan Shan Shan. I, the big man, am just like us, brave enough to fight, able to fight one against ten, everywhere. Our two nations have teamed up against the Huns, we will definitely ensure your safety! Your Majesty, right now, you can only form an alliance with my burly man … ” He then cut the burnt head into two and raised it with the tip of his sword, ”This man is the envoy of the Huns, Your Majesty. As matters stand, you have no other choice!”
