Chapter 443: Eh, good son

Dozens of galleons were carrying grain, cloth, salt, tea, and some iron tools.

Ganchi stood at the bow of the boat and watched the big ship ride the wind and waves.

To the left of Gan Qi stood Gan Ba Zhou Tong and a team of ironclad soldiers, and to the right of Gan Qi stood Wanyan Uguru, who had a large waist knife pinned to his waist, slightly short in stature, and still in the development stage. There was no vigilant and fierce expression on his face, only greenness remained.

Behind Uguru, there were more than a dozen Jurchens with perfect faces.

Coming ashore from the northernmost estuary of the Korean Peninsula, there was Dandong City in Liaoning Province in later generations, Liaoyang Prefecture to the west, and the territory of the Hui Babu to the north, which was the Jurchens.

Jurchens, in the era when the Wanyan Department did not really rise, Jurchen and Jurchen were collectively referred to the many tribes surrounded by several mountain ranges, namely the Great Xing'an Mountains, the Little Xing'an Mountains, and the Changbai Mountains.

In later generations, the Northeast Plain was a plain surrounded by these three mountain ranges, and in the Song Dynasty, most of them were Jurchens. Although the plains here are vast, they are only topographical, and here are more endless jungles, and even swamps, all of which are taller than people. It is completely different from the Northeast Plain of later generations.

Coming ashore from the mouth of the river, Gan Qi brought more than 500 iron armors, as well as many carriages and horses, most of which were purchased in Yanyun, not many, more than a hundred.

There is still a good thing about the Northeast Plain, although there are many forests, but the terrain is still relatively flat, and the horses push it, and the frame can shuttle in the forest, and it can also allow the Jurchens to ride horses in the forest.

The forest is sparse and sparse the further north it goes, and the farther north it goes, the fewer weeds there are, and even the trees in the north have smaller crowns and smaller leaves than in the south.

The forests in the south are very dense, with a crown of branches and foliage that hide from the sky, and layers of low trees below. If you go to the rainforest, it's so dense that you can't put your feet.

The forests of the north are also far less biodiverse than those of the south, and the food chain is much more fragile.

That's the difference in climate.

This difference in climate actually limits the development of human beings, and there is also a gap in the development of civilization in the cold forests compared with the temperate zone. The difference in population size is even greater, because in cold climates, there is too little output in the forest, and naturally there are fewer people who can feed them. After the Jurchens unified a large number of tribes, when they raised an army against Liao, they could only muster together 3,000 men.

It is impossible for the tribes in the forest to live in large groups, because if too many people gather together, they will not find enough food, and only by scattering in the forest can the whole forest be used to the fullest.

In fact, the same is true of grasslands, where the land yield is too low for human beings. In the Central Plains civilization, where farming is made, the grain produced by one or two acres of land is enough to feed a population.

However, the grass that grows on one or two acres of grassland is only enough for a sheep to eat for a few days, and a sheep eats for a few months and grows up, and this sheep is enough for a person to eat for a month. In this way, how many acres of grassland does the grassland have to feed a person?

The disparity in population is this simple truth.

It can also be seen how much progress the fishing and hunting civilization and the nomadic civilization have transitioned to the agricultural civilization. In the northeast, it was not until the Jurchens really established the Dajin Kingdom and really came into contact with the agricultural civilization that they really began to transition to farming.

The Wanyan Jurchens brought real farming to the Northeast Plain. The Manchu people, who rose later, also benefited from it, and the rise of the Manchus also benefited from the agricultural production of the Northeast Plain. Without farming, the Manchurian army, not to mention the Eight Banners, can only be the same as the Jurchens, 3,000 people go to fight against the high walls of the Ming Dynasty.

When Ganchi came ashore, he unloaded a lot of cargo and took a brief rest by the estuary.

Gan Qi also took out more than a dozen pairs of iron armor and put them on the ground, then called Uguru to his side, and began to compare hands and feet again: "Put it on, finish it, wear it, wear it on your body!" ”

"Wear?" Uguru also learned from Ganchi to make a dressing motion.

"Yes, wear." Now the communication between Ganqi and Uguru is getting smoother and smoother, Ganqi's focus is still on teaching Uguru to speak Chinese, and Uguru is also learning very quickly, and the young man is learning many words and words, and he will remember them once he teaches them.

"Okay, I, I, wear, this ......"

"Iron armor, this is called iron armor, step armor, remember? Iron, armor made of iron...... It is also called Burenjia. Gan Qi was still very patient and did not waste any opportunity to teach Uguru Chinese.

"I'm wearing this iron armor, step armor." Uguru would also repeat the words of Ganchi's teachings.

"Your people, Wanyan people, all wear them." Gan Qi said again.

"Okay, thank you." Uguru grinned, smiling extraordinarily brightly, along the way, he had already looked at the iron armor on Gan Ba and the others and drooled, but he couldn't ask for it, he could only let Gan Qi give it. This is the strict upper and lower ranks.

Uguru had already stepped forward and started to wear iron armor, but the process was not smooth, and the Great Song Buren armor was too troublesome.

Gan Ba slapped Uguru on the back of the head, and then said with a smile: "Lao Tzu will help you wear it." ”

"Lao Tzu...... Myself...... Wear. Uguru wasn't angry, but he was stubborn.

"Hey, who are you?" Ganba wasn't actually angry, knowing that Uguru was doing the same.

"Lao Tzu is you, me, I am Uguru, you are Lao Tzu."

Gan Ba laughed when he heard it, and nodded again and again: "Yes, I am Lao Tzu, and you are Uguru." ”

Gan Qi also laughed when he heard this, turned around and took something out of a frame, put it on the ground, and said, "Uguru, bow, crossbow, which one do you want?" ”

Uguru dragged his ironclad skirt as he walked towards Ganchi and asked, "Bow?" Crossbow? ”

"This is a bow, this is a crossbow, which one do you want to make?"

"Bow, Uguru wants a bow, Wanyan man, bow."

Ganchi picked up a standard bow and handed it to Uguru, "Try it." ”

Uguru took the bow and pulled it with his hand, and he looked at Ganchi with a look of surprise, and pulled the bowstring with all his might, his face flushed, and slowly pulled the bow full, as if he had exhausted all his strength, and then slowly let go of the bowstring.

"Bow, good, good bow, finished bow, bad, your bow, good!" Agitated, Uguru took the bow and looked at it repeatedly, trying to see why it was so good.

Gan Qi was also laughing, he thought that the thirteen or fourteen-year-old Uguru was too young to pull the standard longbow in the Great Song Army, but he didn't expect this kid to be forced to fill it.

As for the difference between Wanyan Bow and Da Song Bow, it is actually one reason, the difference in the level of social development. In the field of ordnance production, the Central Plains Dynasty has always crushed other ethnic groups around it. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, one of the many countries in the Central Plains could fight the nomadic head rat, and when the Han Dynasty invented the crossbow, the Huns were shot into hedgehogs, and then when the Tang Dynasty crushed the Turks, the four-meter-long Ma Shuo assassinated countless Turks without breaking, which is the difference.

The Khitan Liao people, since they got Yanyun and millions of Han people, the level of ordnance has been greatly improved.

At this time, the social level of the Jurchens was still too far behind, and the bow made could almost only be used to tickle the iron armor on Ganba's body.

"Bows, yours, and more than a dozen of them, and the perfect ones, as well as spears, will be moved immediately, and they will also be yours." Gan Qi is going to arm a dozen of his men to the teeth, let them smell the woods, and make a way for themselves.

Uguru was already excited like a child, jumping from side to side, calling friends, iron armor, waist knives, hard bows, spears, and well-made straight arrows, arrows with sharp iron heads.

He was already dazzled.

Gan Qi actually has a sense of accomplishment at this moment.

The sense of accomplishment is overwhelming.

"Uguru, go, go to Wanyan." Gan Qi is a urging.

"Okay, I'll wear it, go and finish it." Uguru suppressed his excitement, carrying a large pile of iron armor, looking at it with his left hand and looking at it with his right hand, a little anxious.

Ganba's fat slap hit Uguru on the back of the head again: "It's still Lao Tzu who will teach you how to wear it." ”

"I wear it, I wear it." This time Uguru is not stubborn, he really doesn't know how to wear this iron armor. But he really thought that Ganba's name was "Lao Tzu".

Gan Ba helped Uguru put on the iron armor with all his hands and feet, and the other people who had completed their faces did the same, and they were almost dressed up, and this thing, after wearing it once, would naturally be able to understand. The Jurchens are not stupid.

"Lao Tzu, go to the end." Uguru's excitement hadn't dissipated yet, and he beckoned to Ganba.

Gan Ba was laughing: "Good son, go to the end." ”

Uguru smirked and took the lead, with a dozen ironclad men by his side, and a rope, leading about twenty slaves strung together.

North.

The Hui tribe belonged to the half-baked Jurchens, who sometimes listened to the dispatch of the Liao State, and even paid tribute. Sometimes they rebelled against the Liao State, stopped paying tribute, and robbed the Liao people.

However, after finishing the face and returning to the country, there is still a hatred, and the hatred in the forest cannot find the root, anyway, there is a hatred. Maybe it's because of a roe deer, maybe it's because the Uighurs have also been two devils, maybe it's because one eye didn't match.

Uguru in the woods, can smell people, this is an innate sixth sense, maybe not necessarily smelling, is to see the traces on the ground, maybe it is a feeling.

He was in front of the group, raised his hand and pointed to look back at Ganch.

Gan Qi asked in the direction he was pointing, "Over there, someone?" ”

"Okay, over there, people, people." Uguru nodded in reply.

"At this time, you should say yes, not good."

"Nod your head."

"Nod yes, say yes. Do you understand? ”

"Yes, someone, over there." Uguru said.

"Go, go." Ganch's command was also simple.

"Yes, go, go, man."

"That's what to say, you know? Say yes at this time. ”

"Okay, yes, yes, yes, over there, people." Uguru's head couldn't turn around, what's good, yes. I don't understand, I've said it all, that's right.

Ganchi rode a horse, already starting, heading in the direction Uguru was pointing, but along the way he took the trouble to teach Uguru what to say "yes" and when to say "yes".

After walking a long way, Uguru suddenly stopped, put his hand to his mouth, motioned for Ganqi not to continue, and then pointed to a small hill.

Ganchi understood that the place was not far away, and he dismounted and followed Uguru to the top of the hill.

Under the mountain, in a small village, where a hundred and ten people lived, looking at the houses made of wood and thatch, Gan Qi could calculate that there were about twenty or thirty adult men in this small village.

Gan Qi turned around and whispered: "Duba, you take a hundred people to the front to block, Zhou Dong, you take a hundred people to the back to block." ”

The two nodded and walked away.

Ganchi pointed at himself, and then at Uguru: "I, you, rush down, kill?" ”

"Kill, yes, good, kill." Uguru nodded again and again, bloodthirsty and ferocious, already in his eyes.

"Wait a while, wait for Duba and Zhou Dong to block both sides."

"Wait?"

"Yes, wait, just don't move."

"Don't move?"

"If you don't move, you don't move, look at me, I'll go up, you go up again. Got it? "Gan Qi is more than hand-to-hand.

"Okay, yes."

Surrounded by iron armor left and right, the small village is in the recess of the two mountain bags, which is sheltered from the wind and has a stream, which is a good place to live.

But Gan Qi underestimated the residents here, and while Gan Qi was waiting for Zhou Dong and Gan Ba to lead troops to surround him, the village suddenly became commotion. Many people rushed out of the houses and started shouting.

Obviously, these Hui people noticed that something was wrong, and Gan Qi was looking left and right, and he was also looking at where the flaws were showing on his side.

Looking at it, Gan Qi didn't find a reason, but it was almost over, Gan Qi drew his sword out of the sheath and shouted: "Go, kill!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Gan Qi took a step, only to see more than a dozen Wanyan iron armor rushing away from the hillside, and went out more than a dozen steps away as if they were walking on the ground, with amazing explosiveness.

More than a dozen ironclad men rushed into the village like this, regardless of whether there were reinforcements on the left and right, and even more regardless of whether Gan Qi in the back followed up.

Gan Qi chased and laughed: "This thing is a bit fierce!" ”

With a sword in his left hand and a gun in his right hand, Gan Qi is not so anxious, saying that he is chasing, but in fact, it is also slow and leisurely, Gan Qi has a folding line by his side, and Zhi Kexing rushed faster with a team of iron armor, and even climbed to the bottom of the mountain with a rolling belt.

The Uguru in front of him had already entered the village, and his mouth let out a howl similar to that of a wild beast, and the spear stabbed anyone at sight.

There are also people who come back to greet the man, a short knife in his hand, dodging the spear of Uguru's assassination, and slashing at Uguru, Uguru did not avoid it, the spear was thrown, when the short knife slashed the iron-clad sparks, the iron-clad Uguru actually directly hugged the man and rolled to the ground, with a big mouth, and his teeth were extremely precise and bit the man's throat.

Rolling, struggling, shouting......

There was a sense of primitiveness that pervaded Ganchi's eyes.

Uguru slowly stood up, spat out a piece of meat from his mouth, drew his knife, cut off a head, held it up, turned to look at Ganch, and grinned.

The scarlet mouth and bloody head swayed at Gan Qi, as if to show off, and as if to ask for credit.

Then Uguru put the head down, pointed at Ganch, and then at the head on the ground, and made a gesture that presumably meant to give the head to Ganch.

Ganchi responded with a smile and walked up to Uguru with his sword, lifting his head with a satisfied look on his face.

Uguru was suddenly excited, picked up a knife and a gun, and ran forward, men, women and children, old and weak, women and children, and crying.

Suddenly, a man swooped out from behind a firewood and headed straight for Ganchi, and Uguru reacted quickly and was ready to turn back to help.

But when I heard the "bang" was a loud noise, the man was already covered in blood and flew upside down.

There was also a wisp of green smoke in the air, and the green smoke slowly dissipated on Ganqi's face.

Uguru's eyes were fixed on the spot, and the people who were all in the audience froze, and their eyes looked at Ganqi.

Uguru suddenly knelt down on his knees and raised his hands: "*&%¥#@!" ”

Gan Qi smiled wryly, he didn't understand, but he could understand what Uguru probably said, and stepped forward and pulled Uguru up: "I'm not a god, continue to kill, kill." ”

"Kill! *&%¥#......" Uguru's gaze was steadfast and in awe. He also got up and said something that Gan Qi didn't understand.

"Go kill someone." Gan Qi said again.

"Uguru is going to kill." With that, Uguru turned away.

The Hui people are already fleeing all over the mountains.

Uguru kept chasing, chasing to another mountain, and he still didn't stop, but he took out his bow.

Gan Qi did not chase anymore, but under the protection of Zhi Kexing and others, he began to load his gun with gunpowder projectiles.

This trip to the forest, Gan Qi is looking forward to it more and more at this time, and he knows that it is worth it.

When Uguru returned, it was almost dark.

One by one, the heads were piled together, one by one, the old and weak women and children were tied up, and there were adult men, tied to the ground, looking at Gan Qi with fire-breathing eyes.

Wanyan is even more ferocious than Gan Qi imagined.

Uguru stood in front of Ganchi with a look of awe on his face and saluted, and then said, "Old, kill, kill?" ”

"Old? Killed? ”

"Old, kill, don't eat."

Gan Qi understood, the old ones were kept, wasting food.

Gan Qi nodded, and went with Uguru, he knew more about the things in the forest than Gan Qi.

Gan Ba stood beside Gan Qi and said with a smile: "This kid is really good, I don't have anything to do, so I caught a few who slipped through the net." ”

Gan Qi was very relieved and said with a smile: "He is your son." ”

"Haha...... Big brother, I'm willing to have this son, this kid is a bit like me, he can fight and kill. Gan Ba laughed.

"Then it's decided, let him be your son." Gan Qi laughed.

"Okay, I'll go and ask him to call me Daddy." Ganba turned his head and pointed at himself in front of Uguru: "I, it's your father, call daddy." ”

"Lao Tzu, this?" Uguru didn't understand, so he pulled a woman and pointed at the woman, thinking that Ganba wanted a woman.

"I'm your father, and your name is Dad."

"You, Daddy? Daddy ......" Uguru looked puzzled.

"Yes, my father, my father, understand? Call me, Daddy. ”

"Daddy?"

"Eh, good son." Gan Ba was excited, and turned his head to Gan Qi and said, "Big brother, he recognizes me as his father." Haha......"

"Dut, he won't let you down." Ganchi was delighted.
