Several people were secretly delighted after hearing Bond's words.

Cai Yong asked, "Sir, can our men come in with us?"

Bond glanced at them and said calmly, "What do you think? Do they deserve it?"

Upon hearing this, Cai Yong nodded and bowed, saying, "Unworthy...unworthy...unworthy..."

Bond glanced at him disdainfully: "Then why all this nonsense?"

He then led the way.

The main reason is that Bond was originally cast as a Turk, and he was also an Ashina in the past, so he played the role of a Turk perfectly.

His Turkic "beastly" quality felt incredibly familiar to the heads of the four powerful clans.

As we entered the city, we saw people dressed in Turkic attire all along the way, and the whole city was filled with new totems and new flags.

A short while later, they arrived at the main hall of the city lord's mansion.

A screen was placed in the center.

It's blocking the main seat; that's something Xiao Ce taught him.

Because Xiao Ce sent Yan Jia to impersonate Urgen's Khan.

Zhang Yunqing is currently busy developing his business in the rear of the Turkic territory and doesn't have time to come over. Besides, if Zhang Yunqing came, these people would recognize him.

The reason why Yan Jia was not allowed to show his face was because they were afraid that the other party had seen him.

After they were led here, Bond left.

The group looked around.

Kan Shanyue said excitedly, "Lin Nan, if we can really reach an agreement with this Urgen this time, you will have accomplished a great feat!"

“Indeed, I’ve seen the city’s defenses here and they’re quite formidable. As long as Urgen Khan holds this position, those Turkic tribes won’t be able to break through. And the garrison here looks quite large,” Cai Yong said.

Liu Qi said to Lin Nan, "Lin Nan, now that I've been able to contact the Khan of the Urgen tribe, then you should talk to them!"

Lin Nan nodded with a smile.

Just then, a Turk outside the door shouted in Turkic, "The Khan has arrived!"

Several heads of powerful families, who all understood Turkic, stood up.

Then he looked towards the doorway.

Yan Jiashen was dressed in the clothes of a Turkic priest and wore a mask on his face, which made him look very intimidating.

These powerful family heads were used to being the dogs of the Turks, and they performed Turkic etiquette very well.

Yan Jia went directly behind the screen and then lowered his voice.

"You've all had a long and tiring journey."

After hearing Yan Jia's words, the group of people were slightly taken aback.

Because Yan Jia speaks fluent Xiao language.

However, everyone immediately bowed in respect.

"Greetings, Heavenly Khan. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to see us," Lin Nan said respectfully, leading the group.

As he spoke, Lin Nan noticed the suspicion among the others and asked first, "King, your Xiao language is better than ours."

A Turk standing by the screen immediately shouted, "How dare you! Are you questioning our Heavenly Khan?"

Lin Nan immediately slid to his knees.

Yan Jia, standing behind the screen, waved his hand and said, "It's alright! I'm speaking Xiao language with you, so I didn't intend to hide my identity!"

Upon hearing this, the head of a powerful clan immediately looked on with curiosity.

Yan Jia then began to speak, using the identity Xiao Ce had fabricated for him: "Do you know why I'm willing to see you?"

Everyone shook their heads in confusion.

Yan Jia continued, “Because I was once a slave in one of your four northern prefectures. Later, I was tortured to death by those Turks. When I was on the verge of death, I was saved by the god Urgen! The god Urgen said that those former Turks had defiled the miracle.”

“The god Urgen gave me his name, lent me the ghost cavalry, and helped me wipe out the old Turkic tribes! This is how the Urgen tribe came to be! I freed the tribe’s slaves and made them my people.”

"Many of your former slaves are among our Urgen tribe. The Urgen God even bestowed upon them the surname Urgen! We have quite a history with each other! Moreover, I heard from Lin Nan that you are willing to help our Urgen tribe to eliminate those former Turkic tribes?"

Yan Jia clearly explained the origins of his tribe and what he wanted them to do.

The group was stunned by Yan Jia's words.

Although what Yan Jia said was like telling a story.

Fortunately, people in ancient times were quite superstitious, and they quickly chose to believe.

Lin Nan nodded: "That's right, Urgen Khan, we have come to pledge our loyalty to you. The former Turkic tribes have committed all sorts of atrocities in our counties, burning, killing, and looting. We hate them to the bone, but we are forced to obey them due to their tyranny. We are willing to join Urgen Khan in eradicating those demons."

Yan Jia, listening to Lin Nan's words from behind the screen, didn't mince words: "It's not us, it's you! You should know that the Northern King of the Northern Prefecture promised me to eliminate those remaining followers in your Northern Desert. As far as I know, the policies your Northern King has introduced are not in your favor, are they?"

The group exchanged glances, signaling Lin Nan to continue: "Heavenly Khan, you are indeed a man of few words! Indeed, we wish to pledge our allegiance to you. Given your relationship with the King of the Northern Desert, he wouldn't dare to do anything to you."

Yan Jia, standing behind the screen, stated his thoughts directly: "Of course, that's why I called you here today! My relationship with the King of Mobei is indeed good, but everything we do is based on mutual benefit."

"As far as I know, the Northern King is currently adopting a defensive strategy. This is not in line with my goals. I want to quickly annihilate those former Turkic tribes. Only when they are dead can I, Urgen, truly eliminate any future troubles."

"So, as long as you eliminate the old Turkic tribes before Xiao Ce, I will allow your four counties to be incorporated into our Turkic Kingdom's blueprint. Of course, don't worry, this is only in name. Your counties will be autonomous, meaning you will all be your own local emperors."

Upon hearing this, the Khan's eyes lit up immediately: "Really? Heavenly Khan!"

Yan Jia, behind the screen, nodded: "Of course, you must wipe out the old Turkic forces before Xiao Ce! That way, I will have a reason to speak to Xiao Ce! I promise you in the name of the God of Urgen!"

Hearing Yan Jia say this from behind the screen, the eyes of the group were filled with excitement.

However, he quickly regained his composure and said, "However, we are afraid that our guards are no match for them."

Yan Jia, behind the screen, sneered: "As far as I know, your forces outnumber the Turks several times over! If you don't even have that much confidence, frankly, I won't associate with such trash!"

Kan Shanyue was frantic: "Heavenly Khan, let's do it! You're right, they have the manpower advantage, let's wipe out those old Turkic tribes."

Yan Jia, behind the screen, nodded: "I'm not in a hurry for you to give me an answer!"

Cai Yong chimed in: "Your Majesty, we're in a hurry! We agree!"

The group nodded in agreement.

Lin Nan asked from the side, "Why don't we reconsider?"

Lin Nan's words made the head of the powerful clan anxious, and he kept winking and making faces at them.

"What the hell are you talking about... no need to think about it anymore! Heavenly Khan, we agree!" Kan Shanyue said anxiously.

Yan Jia, standing behind the screen, said calmly, "You can all agree on what to say."

Everyone was getting anxious at the sight and glared at Lin Nan.

Lin Nan said, "Tianhan, no need. We came here to discuss this matter. We agree!"

Yan Jia, behind the screen: "Very well, I will send someone to draft an edict later, ordering you to fight for us, Urgen. At that time, I will also attach these conditions we discussed, as a kind of proof."

The group listened with their eyes shining. They bowed.

"I'm waiting for your good news."

Upon seeing this, Yan Jia, who was behind the screen, came out and then left.

He hadn't expected these people to be so foolish.

In fact, all of this was due to the groundwork laid by Xiao Ce, plus Lin Nan fanning the flames from the sidelines.

After Yan Jia left.

Lin Nan then asked, "Are you sure? This Tianhan is acting all mysterious. Do you think he's credible?"

"I'm sure, didn't you see? Yanbei City is already in his hands. And the entire Turkic tribe is under his control... From now on, the four prefectures of Mobei will have to rely on this Urgen..."

“That’s right! And this Urgen is also one of our people from the northern desert, so our relationship with him will definitely not be too bad in the future. We have no other choice now.”

"Lin Nan, didn't you tell us this in the first place? Why are you being so timid and hesitant now..."

Lin Nan gave an awkward smile: "I...I'm just afraid I can't beat them."

Kan Shanyue, standing nearby, said, "Our troops now outnumber the Turks several times over. As long as we keep our garrison at the city gates, they will be like stray dogs without supplies. How difficult is it to defeat a stray dog?"

Kan Shanyue's words were met with unanimous agreement from the others.

"Then let's do it?" Lin Nan asked, looking at the person beside him.

Cai Yong and his group said, "Let's do it! The more spectacular our battle is this time, the more prestigious we'll become with Urgen Khan! This is a rare opportunity."

The group nodded emphatically: "That's right, each of us has accumulated quite a bit of wealth. This time, we'll bring it all out and fight them to the death!"

After Yan Jia left, he soon returned with an edict bearing the seal of the Turkic tribe.

The head of one of the four great clans had personally seen the seal of the Turkic Kingdom.

After seeing the national seal, they finally dispelled their last bit of doubt.

They were all afraid of missing a crucial opportunity, so they left overnight.

Before they left, Yan Jia also gave them some Turkic warhorses.

After changing back into his clothes, Yan Jia stood on the city wall watching the group of people leave under the stars and moon. He then said to Bond beside him, "Let all our men change back into our clothes."

Bond nodded: "Yes, sir. Did those people believe it?"

Yan Jia smiled and said, "He probably believes it."

Bond chimed in, "Whether they believe it or not, they can't change the course of the Northern Desert King's plans!"

Yan Jia looked at Bond with an admiring expression and said, "The King of Mobei isn't here, and you're already bragging? He can't hear you."

Bond smiled, his face sincere: "General, I mean it from the bottom of my heart... I have never seen such a great commander."

Yan Jia gazed in the direction of Lingxiao City, nodded, and was filled with mixed emotions...

Previously, he was a death row inmate!

Now, he is a general commanding a region. How could an ordinary person make such an appointment? He sighed, "If only he could be the emperor of our Xiao Kingdom!"
