Chapter 235: Deception
(The brothers' holiday is almost over, haha...... )
Although Hu Bili was killed by Chen Hai before he could talk about the specific plan at the banquet, from the letter he carried with him, there were still mentions of the place and time where more than a dozen horse thieves gathered and some preliminary plans. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In addition to the fact that some people in the Xiqiang Kingdom actively planned to participate in this matter, the three horse thieves involved in this matter were the most powerful, all from the depths of the desert in the northwest of the Xiqiang Kingdom.
These three horse thieves alone plan to send more than 5,000 horses, and if all the horse thieves who have been contacted before send troops as scheduled, it is expected that more than 10,000 horse thieves will gather on the side of the West Gorge Corridor, ready to stop the team to send their relatives to Hexi.
In addition to the active planning of this matter by some people within the Xiqiang State, except for the three most powerful horse thieves who may have additional benefits, or the Tibetan Qiang State may be involved, the most direct and at the same time the biggest temptation for small and medium-sized horse bandits like Yequ Mountain is that Dong Ning, the lord of Yuecheng County, marries into the Xiqiang State, and the dowry used to ally with the Xiqiang State is rumored to be a wealth that is enough to captivate the country and the city.
In the rumored dowry, in addition to the most ordinary large number of gold, silver and jewelry, there are also the unique books of the secret book of the Xuanfa that Taiwei Sect plundered in the west, the invisible earth-level magic weapon that killed the enemy hundreds of miles away, the unstoppable ancient Xuanbing spirit sword, and the elixir of resurrection, in short, any one taken out, can cause a lot of commotion and madness in the depths of the vast desert.
Although the situation previously detected showed that the men and horses sent by the lord of Hexi and the lord of Xiqiang to greet him were only escorted by 500 elite cavalry, not counting the servants and rewarded slaves, and considering that the Xiqiang State would send reinforcements into the Xixia Corridor at any time, Fan Dachun, who was cautious by nature, did not think that the dozens of horse thieves together had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, so they must be sure of success.
And since the fat sheep have come to the door, Fan Dachun can't participate if he wants to.
If you don't participate, the Night Canal Mountain is on the edge of the West Gorge Corridor, and the other horse thieves are likely to unite first and end the Night Canal Mountain first, but use the Night Canal Mountain as the forward base for the robbery and family sending team.
Fan Dachun's original plan was to let Han Wendang and others, lead two hundred people, and get involved in this matter in the past, he led the other horse thieves to watch the situation in Yequ Mountain, if something was wrong, they rolled up soft things and ran fast, but at this time, Ning Chan'er asked Fan Dachun to gather all the horse thieves who could ride, shoot and fight in Yequ Mountain, and follow her to the Songyang Lake Oasis seven or eight hundred miles west of Yequ Mountain, and act together after meeting with other horse thieves.
The den of horse thieves is a cruel world of the jungle.
If the horse thief can't prepare a way out for himself before he gets old, once the old dragon can't ride a horse or shoot an arrow, the final outcome in the horse thief's den is to be eaten by other horse thieves and there is no meat left;
Therefore, there are 437 horse thieves in Yequ Mountain, even if there are a small number of old, weak, sick and disabled, they can basically get on their horses and fight on horseback. Ning Chan'er wanted to pull out none of the four hundred and thirty-seven horse thieves in Yequ Mountain.
Fan Dachun was reluctant to dump the nest, and when everyone gathered in the warehouse to discuss the plan to send troops, bitter gourd complained with a bitter face: "Yequ Mountain has finally put together two or three thousand people's belongings, can you leave enough soldiers and horses to guard it, these slaves rebelled, not to mention the demolition of Yequ Mountain, they all ran away, who else will serve you in the future?"
Ning Chan'er sat on a stone chair in the middle of the warehouse, looking at the accumulation of years in the warehouse of Yequ Mountain, her face was full of disgust, not to mention the ground-level magic weapon spirit sword, not even a few spirit grass and spirit trees that she could see.
The bones and scales of dozens of low-level demon beasts can only refine the lowest-level yellow-level lower-grade spirit armor magic weapon; a large pile of black stones can refine the Xuanfetus Essence Iron from them, but the two or three person-high stones add up, and the Xuanti Essence Iron that can be refined is not enough to cast an armor-piercing arrow; not to mention that refining the Xuanti Essence Iron is time-consuming and laborious, and she can't look down on it.
And in addition to some broken copper and iron, there are hundreds of thousands of catties of grain stored in the warehouse, she doesn't understand what Fan Dachun, a group of horse thieves, is doing with so much food, and a group of slaves outside are all hungry, she is too lazy to talk to Fan Dachun at this time.
"If the second master really wants to operate a territory in Yequ Mountain, and he may have the opportunity to obtain the position of city lord in the future, he can't call all the people who have been plundered as slaves," Chen Hai said in a slow and orderly urn voice, "You can select the first few groups of slaves to enter Yequ Mountain, so as to avoid their hard labor, give them civilian status, and let them assist in the management of other slaves." This way, there is no need to be guarded by soldiers and horses, and there is no need to worry about the slaves running out. In the future, when the brothers are old, they can live in Yequ Mountain, and if they have children to continue the family business, they don't need to rack their brains anymore and hide in other places incognito and spend their last years in desolation. ”
"I don't know what the situation will be like here after this incident, and if the Xiqiang Kingdom is offended, how can I think of a city lord who is not a city lord?" Fan Dachun said with a wry smile.
"Since you don't think about the future, then don't care if these slaves run away or not?" Ning Chan'er raised her eyebrows, she was unhappy about the harvest this time, after listening to Fan Dachun's words, she stared at it with a frosty face, and asked sharply, "Do you want to lead some people to stay, and when we go away, you will roll up and run away?" Do you want to try it in advance, and if you don't take my special antidote after a month, what will be the end?"
Fan Dachun was blocked by Ning Chan'er's words, and he couldn't spit out the words in his throat.
Although he said that his life was pinched in his hands by Ning Chan'er, although his temperament was also cunning, he also had the dignity of a strong martial cultivator in the Ming Realm realm, so he just sat there silently.
"It is said that there is no leaky wall in the world, and if we kill the messenger, the news will not be able to be concealed forever, and in the end we can only find other excuses to shirk responsibility. And the second master, think about it carefully, can the master of the Xiqiang Kingdom secretly destroy the marriage behind the scenes, can it be concealed for a while, and can it be concealed for a lifetime?" Chen Hai persuaded Fan Dachun seriously, "The master who is hiding behind the scenes, secretly making such a big move, the second master really thinks that they are simply trying to destroy the marriage between the Xiqiang Kingdom and Hexi, and do nothing else? Will they really wait for the matter to be revealed in the future, so that the Xiqiang State Lord will know about it and clean them up fiercely?"
"What do you mean by the three masters?" Fan Dachun looked at Chen Hai suspiciously.
"In the future, don't talk about the city lord of Yequ Mountain, I think, as long as the second master can make great achievements this time, it is not impossible to be a marquis and a general in the Xiqiang Kingdom," Chen Hai snorted and said with a smile, "Otherwise, the second master really thinks that the big boss has come all the way to come, and he really likes your little Yequ Mountain?"
Fan Dachun was skeptical of Chen Hai's words, but after thinking about it, Chen Hai's words did greatly open his imagination, and he said in a muffled voice: "Then we will obey the arrangement of the big boss." ”
Hu Bilie and Hu Servant carried a few spirit swords and three magic weapons, Ning Chan'er couldn't look at it, her eyes swirled on the bronze whip held behind Fan Dachun's waist, this is probably the only Xuan-level Xuanbing in Yequ Mountain, she struggled in her heart for a long time, after all, she was not embarrassed to snatch the bronze whip directly; of course, she couldn't wipe her face, and snatched away the Xuanti Iron Bow and nine armor-piercing arrows in Chen Hai's hand.
Fan Dachun subconsciously hid the Flame Breaker Whip behind him, Chen Hai saw that Fan Dachun was still somewhat reluctant, and patiently persuaded him and said:
"In addition to the first few batches of slaves to be pardoned from hard labor, they also have to distribute the surplus grain in the stockade to them, so that they can have a family business to keep, so that they will be loyal to the second master, and will not think of escaping from Yequ Mountain. You don't need to feel sorry for these grains, you can't do this vote, and we can't run away with the excess food; After the grain is divided, it is necessary to let them have a field to manage, and the field tax can be extracted according to the harvest in the village, which is the way to manage the city -- and the two or three thousand acres of thin fields and the small pasture on the shore of Yequ Lake......, you will not really regard it as a treasure for the second master, right?
"If you can't do anything, Yequ Mountain will be empty, and now it's divided, there's nothing to be sorry about. "The three masters of Yequ Mountain before, but now Han Wendang, who has retreated to the fifth rank in Yequ Mountain, thinks thoroughly, and urges Fan Dachun to do things in a voice not to be too mother-in-law.
Before Hu Bili entered Yequ Mountain, there had been people secretly staring at the team sending off relatives in Hexi, and at this time, it was only two or three days away from passing through the Crescent Lake Oasis, and they had to rush to Songyang Lake to meet with other horse thieves and horses, if they delayed any longer, they would not be able to catch up with anything.
Fan Dachun was suspicious of Chen Hai's words, but the other leaders made Chen Hai quite moved, and they couldn't help whispering, guessing who was hiding behind the scenes in the Xiqiang Kingdom and wanted to destroy the marriage with the Hexi Dong family, and guessing what the ultimate intention of this person behind the scenes was.
Seeking power and usurping the throne?
The horse thief leaders who licked blood from the knife all day long and stared at Fan Dachun's position in charge were most likely to associate with this.
Thinking of having the opportunity to participate in the major events of the Xiqiang State to change the dynasty, and thinking that in the future, everyone can be knighted and crowned as a wife and son, and I don't know how many times better than the future of the horse thieves, these horse thief leaders are also enthusiastic, and they all forget that they still have the poison pills given by Ning Chan'er in their bodies, and they all forget that they used to kill people like numb.
Although being a horse thief is free, isn't the biggest future just waiting for Zhao'an?
