Chapter 210: The Horse Bandit's Guarantee
The horse bandits surrounded the whole area where the caravan camped at night, and it was no longer good to hide among the camels and goods, so everyone came out, led by the leader of the caravan, and surrounded him with Meng Tian as the center.
Meng Tian asked Mu Lituo to tell these people that he would do his best to keep them out of harm's way and that they wouldn't have to worry. Although he had seen Meng Tian's martial arts just now, these horse bandits might not be his opponents, but the leader of this horse bandit had not yet made a move, and he was always the biggest threat.
The leader of the horse bandits rode slowly in front of Meng Tian and the others, then jumped off the horse, and then spoke a lot in the Western Regions dialect.
Meng Tian looked at Mu Lituo beside him, Mu Lituo didn't know what language this leader spoke, after all, he only knew the language of Loulan and a few countries that he often visited.
"For your sake, he said, tonight they only took half of our cargo and then left. The leader of the caravan understood what the leader of the horse bandits said, and he said to Meng Tian.
Only take half of the goods, or for the sake of their own face. Meng Tian asked the caravan leader beside him, "How much is your shipment worth?"
The leader of the caravan told Meng Tian that their shipment was a good leather product purchased from several countries and tribes in the steppe, and if it was shipped back and processed again, it should be able to sell for about 10,000 taels of gold.
"Damn. "I want to take away five thousand taels of gold when I open my mouth, these horse bandits are really a bit hateful, Meng Tian spat fiercely, "You tell him that with me tonight, they can't take a single hair away." ”
"Is this okay? Strongman, I know that you are strong in martial arts, but when I met these horse bandits tonight, I can only say that my luck is not good, if you lose your life because of finances, it will be very bad. "In fact, when these horse bandits said that they only needed half of the goods, the leader of the caravan was already a little moved. After all, there are no dead people on his side, and he only spent less than six thousand taels of silver to buy this batch of leather goods, even if half of it is taken away by these horse bandits, he still has a certain amount of money.
If Meng Tian can't defeat the leader of this horse bandit, let alone half of the goods at that time, it is a question of whether they can all survive.
Mu Lituo also persuaded beside him: "Yes, brother, there are so many of them, even if you can fight ten by yourself, but after all, the tiger can't beat the wolves." Why don't we just give them half of the goods, at least we can survive. ”
"Big brother, don't worry, I have confidence. Meng Tian said to Mu Lituo, then he glanced at the leader of the caravan, and then took a few steps forward.
Meng Tian pointed his sword at the leader of the horse bandits, then at his scimitar hanging from the belly of the horse, and then made a defiant gesture.
The horse bandit next to him began to shout, but he didn't expect to meet a person who dared to challenge his boss today. But since someone wants to die, they don't mind watching how a person dies.
The leader of the horse bandits understood what Meng Tian meant, and he seemed to have a strong interest in the person in front of him daring to challenge him, he put away his contemptuous thoughts, took off his weapon from the war horse with his backhand, and then returned to Meng Tian to stand still.
Meng Tian saw that the other party had taken the weapon, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, since he accompanied Zi Yanran to Beijun, he hadn't used his fists and feet for a long time, and he could finally have a good time tonight.
At night, the desert is silent and desolate, with the occasional wind blowing through the dunes and the sound of the sand rolling, and even the moon in the sky becomes different, looking big and round, adding a touch of coldness to the desert.
The leader of the horse bandits took the lead in attacking, swinging the scimitar in his hand left and right, and the moves were all slashing towards Meng Tian's waist and abdomen.
Meng Tian took two steps back, then kicked his feet to the ground, rolled over in the air, and dodged the attack of the horse bandit leader. Then the real sword in his hand stabbed directly into the center of the back of the horse bandit leader.
The horse bandit leader's martial arts were indeed good, and in the face of Meng Tian's menacing sword, he only hurriedly turned around, blocking the scimitar in front of his chest, wielding it impenetrable.
The knife and the sword collided together, and the "jingle bell" collided with sparks, and neither of them hurt the other, but it seemed that Meng Tian was obviously superior just now.
After the sword and sword collided back and forth a few times, Meng Tian and the horse bandit leader fought separately, then each took a breath, and then stepped forward to fight together.
After fighting for a while, Meng Tian felt that the martial arts of this horse bandit leader were not very good, at most it was similar to the kung fu of a captain of the Meng family army, of course, this captain was trained by Meng Li. Now that he knew that the other party couldn't beat him, there was no need for Meng Tian to hide his strength anymore, and he attacked nearly twenty moves in succession, forcing the horse bandit leader to be a little scrambling.
The leader of the horse bandits already knew that he was not the opponent of the other party, and the other party's onslaught of twenty moves just now was obviously because the other party did not have the intention to consume with him, otherwise he would definitely die.
After dozens of moves with Meng Tian, the leader of the horse bandits finally couldn't resist Meng Tian's moves, and after being hit in the chest by Meng Tian with the hilt of his sword, he staggered back a few steps, and then squatted on the ground.
Seeing that Meng Tian had defeated the leader of the other party, everyone in the caravan shouted loudly, and the situation not only saved his life, but also his property. The big leader of the caravan was the happiest, because he was the biggest beneficiary, so he was happier than anyone else.
Before the horse bandits ran to their old age
On his side, Meng Tian had already reached the front of the horse bandit leader first, his long sword against his chest, and then shouted to the caravan leader and Mu Lituo, "You tell him that I have defeated him, and now he can withdraw with his men." “
The leader of the caravan relayed Meng Tian's words to him in the language of the leader of the bandits, and after the leader of the bandits listened to it, he muttered a big phone call again.
"He said that they had little dry food left, and that they had learned that we were camping here tonight, so they came and wanted to rob us, and now that he was defeated, he did not dare to rob us anymore, and hoped that we could give them some dry food, and they would go away when they had something to eat. The leader of the caravan looked at Meng Tian and said.
So that's the case, Meng Tian put the Zhengang sword back into its sheath, he thought for a moment, and said to the leader of the caravan, "Do you have enough dry food to prepare?"
The leader of the caravan called over to one of his subordinates and said something to him in his own language, and then his men said something in the same language, and the leader of the caravan turned his head to Meng Tian and said, "Our dry food is enough, because this desert is not big, so as long as we get out of the desert, we can replenish food." ”
"Well, in that case, I have a note, I don't know what you think?" Meng Tian said to the caravan leader.
"What attention?"
Meng Tian said: "Look, you have to take this road often, and they are horse bandits here, now you give them some dry food, so that they can promise not to beat your attention in the future, so that they can live, you don't have to lose your property, and you can do better business on this road in the future, what do you think?"
Listening to Meng Tian's attention, the caravan leader thought for a moment, and then nodded heavily. Meng Tian's attention is very good, but these people are bandits, can what they say count? The caravan leader told Meng Tian of his considerations.
Meng Tian said: "Don't worry about this, if they dare not keep their oath, then you can go to the border guards of the Qin State and ask them to send someone to exterminate them, just say that I said it." ”
Although the border guards of the Qin State were somewhat barbaric, their strength was still very strong, and the leaders of the caravans knew that their generals were very arrogant, so this was also the reason why they were reluctant to go to the Qin State to do business.
The identity of the general Meng Tian was whispered to him in the caravan leader's ear, which surprised the caravan leader. Now that he has Meng Tian's guarantee, he has nothing to worry about, and readily agrees to Meng Tian's idea.
The leader of the bandits wrote a letter of blood to the leader of the caravan as a guarantee, and after receiving the food, he led the remaining dozens of bandits and left.
Pi cream is a forbidden word, so change the word, I hope you don't mind.
