Chapter 81: The Purpose of Suppressing Bandits
The Golden Immortal Attendant helped him buy the Wood Xing Heaven and Earth Treasure, the Green Eagle Spirit Jade, which is said to have been bred in the spiritual jade vein of the Liao Kingdom, the Green Eagle Mountain Nest.
The green eagle is an extremely ferocious beast in the territory of Liao, with wings ten zhang in size, huge physique, and strong and powerful.
Liao has an extremely powerful army and horses, called the Green Eagle Army, which is in charge of the Empress Dowager Xiao, although there are only 30,000, but it is very terrifying, and the spirit realm can travel tens of thousands of miles a day, and it can run long distances.
Because the green eagle is extremely difficult to tame, let alone used in the joint operations of the human race, the number of establishments has not been able to rise.
Shang Yin could feel that this quality was almost the same as Aoki Spirit Jiaoyu, and it was even better.
In the past few days, many traveling merchants in Xijinguan have been shrouded in fear, and in just a few days, thousands of headless traveling merchants have been brought back by horses and camels.
If it was not yet dawn today, they gathered together and prepared to set off at the same time with the Hongwu Army and the Longquan New Army.
"Childe, next attack Moxikou, I'm afraid I have no way to make a move, I can only passively protect, otherwise, it is very likely to attract the thirteen thieves to take action in person, and then it will be even more unfavorable for you. The Golden Immortal said solemnly.
"It doesn't matter, I know. Shang Yin bowed.
He was in the carriage, practicing cross-legged, ready for the next crackdown on the bandits.
The power of the Green Eagle Spirit Jade and the Pure Yang Xuanma Jade in front of him was slowly being absorbed and refined by him.
The two orange runes on his chest are also gradually changing a little bit, flowing out a little yellow light, but Shang Yin knows very well that it will take some time to let the two runes step into the yellow realm at the same time.
Before they arrived at Xijin Pass, the nest of the thirteen thieves in Moxikou received a portrait.
The person in the portrait is Shang Yin, who can come back with the head of this son and reward 600,000 high-grade spirit jade.
Xia Jie's revenge and deterrence is only one of the small reasons.
The main reason is that for these horse thieves, it is better to kill the wrong person than to let it go, the head is in hand, and I have the bounty.
Especially in the climate of Moxikou, sometimes the face is really difficult to recognize.
Only by cutting the head back can it be accurately compared.
This is the main reason why all the traveling merchants have been beheaded these days.
There is a mysterious person who wants the head of this son, and what he said, the thirteen thieves are sure that as long as they can do it, the other party will definitely fulfill their promises.
They had already received 300,000 catties of high-grade spirit jade as a deposit.
The information received by the Thirteen Thieves is that for a month or two, the man in the portrait will be moving around Moxikou.
This is naturally from the handwriting of the Queen Mother, and it is naturally impossible for her identity to blatantly do this kind of thing, and Hong Sheng and Leng Stiff have always been really responsible for these things.
It's just that Shang Yin and the others don't know anything about it.
In Xijin Guanzhong, many traveling merchant teams have already prepared, after all, Xia Jie has already personally opened his mouth to conquer the horse thieves in Moxikou, and they are naturally relaxed.
For traveling merchants, the timing of doing business is very important, once you miss what you need at this time of year, and then ship it back, the value will be greatly reduced.
They also know that in the face of the horse thieves of the Thirteen Thieves who suddenly went crazy, only if everyone unites their strength, can they survive safely.
All the traveling merchant teams combined, there were thirty or forty thousand people, among which the guards who stepped into the spirit realm were at least eight thousand, and the others were even more in the mortal realm.
"Brother Shang Yin, we are leaving, what are your plans?" Xiahou Ba came on horseback, he was already eager to try, but he also knew that Shang Yin only had two people, and it was too dangerous to act alone: "How about you act with my Hongwu army?"
"Forget it, I'll leave the matter to you, our task is to blend in with the traveling merchant team and protect them, just in case. "Shang Yin is holding Xiahou Ba's map in his hand, and there is a route on it, as long as he can pass through the first den safely, once the war starts, even if he is a horse thief of the thirteen thieves, he will not be able to take care of the Shang's team.
"Hmm, why do you want to do this?" Xiahou Ba was a little puzzled: "As long as we can kill all the horse thieves, they will naturally be safe." ”
"What is the purpose of the bandits? Isn't it just to let the people of the two countries be able to trade normally, exchange with each other, so that the people can exchange materials and take what they need, so that they can live, if they can be in the ranks of traveling merchants, escort them to the territory of Liao safely, then the purpose will be achieved, the two of us can't play much role on the battlefield, but if there is any accident in the caravan, at least we can play a commanding role, I know that with Brother Xiahou, you will be able to contain the horse thief, and we will definitely be able to relieve a lot of pressure. Shang Yin smiled, he knew that Xiahou Ba was also for his own good.
"Understood. Xiahou Ba had a lot of touches in his heart, and before hearing this, he only had military merit in his heart, and immediately bowed his head and said: "Then I will definitely try my best to contain all the horse thieves in all dens, so as to buy time for you and reduce the burden." ”
"I hope that the Longquan New Army will also contribute a little more force, you can't rely on you alone, I look at the number of horse thieves in the thirteen dens, at least more than 300,000 ......" Shang Yin looked solemn and said: "Even if they are not from the regular army, they have been here for many years, and they have a brave spirit, which cannot be ignored." ”
"Don't worry, I won't let those people die in vain some time ago. Xiahou Ba arched his hand and said, "Be careful all the way." ”
"Be careful all the way. Shang Yin said.
"Childe, then we are leaving?" The Golden Immortal Servant saw that the Hongwu Army and the Longquan New Army were preparing to march, and it was still the middle of the night.
"I have a task to hand over to you, you don't need to escort me along the way!" Shang Yin took out a written letter, as well as a token, and said, "Choose a batch of the fastest horses at Xijin Pass, and you will arrive at the Liao Kingdom as fast as possible......"
The Golden Immortal was stunned, she didn't know what Shang Yin thought, but she knew that she only needed to obey the order and act, so she immediately took the order and left: "Yes." ”
"Brother Hanhan, it's hard for you to be a coachman. Shang Yin grinned, he looked at the map in his hand, there were 30,000 miles in the middle, even if the traveling merchant team was sleepless, the fastest speed to advance, it would take at least ten days.
Han Han directly broke off the head of a green eagle spirit jade with his hand, took a bite of it, and nodded again and again.
Shang Yin continued to be in the carriage, cultivating cross-legged, racing against time.
Before dawn, Hongwu Army and Longquan New Army successively left Xijin Pass.
The caravan followed behind them, marching as fast as they could.
On the majestic horses sat the spirit realm warriors of the wandering merchants.
A camel horse, pulling a large number of goods, although they are very enduring, and the sense of direction is excellent, when the wind and sand are strong, will not lose their way, but the speed of travel, relatively speaking, is much slower, if day and night, without rest more than 3,000 miles is already the limit.
"Everyone cheers up, otherwise their heads will be moved. ”
"We are outnumbered and powerful, and when we encounter horse thieves and fight to the death, they may not be able to defeat us. ”
There were quite a few Spirit Realm guards who often walked this path, cheering up all the people present.
"Now that the Xia Kingdom has sent elite soldiers and horses to encircle and suppress them, even if they target us, it is unlikely that they will have a large number of soldiers and horses. ”
"As long as we are united, they can do nothing about us!"
Many traveling merchants are shrouded in the shadow of the previous days, and there are headless corpses returning from horseback every day, all of them are traveling merchants, and it makes people's hearts chill when they think about it.
Shang Yin's carriage was in the center, and he heard everyone's words clearly.
He knew that he had to make a judgment based on the actual situation to prevent mistakes.
