West Zhuangzi, in the main hall of the White Mansion.

A middle-aged man with a slightly chubby figure, a fair complexion, and kind eyebrows, was fidgeting in the hall, he sat down for a while, stood up and walked two steps, and sat down again...... made the subordinates waiting next to him dare not take a breath.

This kind-hearted middle-aged man is the contemporary head of the Bai family in Xizhuangzi, Bai Shijun is a white member.

West Zhuangzi is the largest Zhuangzi on the Yiyuan Plain, with almost 6,000 people, and there are three powerful families in the Zhuangzi, namely the Bai family, the Tang family, and the Li family.

Of these three powerful households, the Bai family is the strongest, the Tang family is second, and the Li family is the weakest.

The West Zhuangzi Bai family is the main branch of the East Zhuangzi Bai family, but the two families have been separated for too long, and their affection for each other has been weakened.

The Bai family is strong, not only because he occupies the most and best land in Xizhuangzi, but also because of the relationship and power of the Bai family in the government.

For several generations, the Bai family has had people who have been officials in the state and county. Bai Shijie, the younger brother of the contemporary head of the family, has become the official of Tai'an Prefecture, and is the confidant of Tai'an Prefecture's assassin history.

Just when Bai Shijun was becoming more and more anxious, a subordinate pushed the door in, and said to Bai Shijun a little breathlessly: "Outside the staff, report quickly, the third master is already ten miles away." ”

Bai Shijun stood up violently when he heard this, and said happily: "Go to the door...... Don't go to the west gate of Zhuangzi to greet you! ”

Seven or eight miles west of Xizhuangzi, a group of cavalry escorted a two-horse carriage slowly out of the dense woods and came to a strange place.

This group of cavalrymen was wearing the standard armor of the Jin Army, and they were obviously officers and soldiers, and the number was in their early fifties, and it should be a puran, that is, a team of fifty people.

The establishment of the Jin army is roughly divided into six levels, respectively in five, ten, fifty, hundred, thousand, and ten thousand units, and its commanders are five masters, ten commanders (also called brand heads), fifty commanders (Pu Yuan Bo Jilie), centurion (Mou Ke Bo Jilie), thousand commanders (Meng An Bo Jilie), ten thousand commanders (Temu Bo Jilie)

The armor on these cavalrymen was quite rudimentary, only a helmet, a cuirass was made of iron, the armor was thick and rusty, and the rest of the parts were covered by some leather armor, and some did not even have leather armor, only cloth robes.

The personal weapons of these cavalrymen were mainly short knives, bones, maces, and only a few cavalrymen in full armor had a long cavalry spear stuck in a long leather pocket under the horse's neck.

In addition to melee weapons, each cavalry saddle hung a horned bow and a pot of feathered arrows.

Judging from the appearance of the armor, these cavalry should be foreign cavalry in the regular army of the Jin army.

The territory of the Jin State included a large grassland in the eastern part of present-day Inner Mongolia, and there were many nomadic tribes dependent on the Jin State on these grasslands, mainly the Khitan tribes, but also the attached Mongol tribes.

The tribal cavalry of these attached tribes had the obligation to fight under the Jin State, and were regarded as part of the Jin Army's system, which the Jin people called the "Gang Army".

With the corruption of the Jurchens, the Jin people recruited a large number of tribal cavalry into the regular army system, such as the border guards in the north of the Jin State, almost most of which were composed of such tribal cavalry.

In the town defense army in the inner land of Jin, a considerable proportion of the cavalry was composed of cavalry from foreign tribes.

can be escorted by a cavalry of the official army, which shows that the status of the people in the carriage is not low, but it is not high.

In addition to the regular army of this chariot, there were also more than a dozen knights around the carriage, these knights were neatly dressed and armored, but they were not standard, they were obviously the family generals of the nobles in the carriage.

After the carriage drove out of the woods, the curtain was raised, revealing the elegant face of a middle-aged man inside, who looked somewhat similar to Bai Shijun's appearance, but his face was thinner and more handsome.

This elegant middle-aged man is the younger brother who made Bai Yuanwai anxiously wait, Bai Shijie, the governor of Tai'an Prefecture.

The official belongs to the staff officer of the state assassin history, and the official rank is not high, but from the seventh grade, but although the position is lowly and powerful, it is considered to be a figure in the entire Tai'an Prefecture.

Bai Shijie had just lifted the curtain on the left side of the carriage, and the curtain on the right side of the carriage had also been lifted, revealing a beautiful face.

This is a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, with a white and thin goose egg face, a pair of big black eyes and two slender willow eyebrows set off particularly beautiful, a small and straight nose, thin and ruddy lips, and a double sideburns combed on her head, thick and black, which is in sharp contrast to her white and tender face.

The girl's exposed half of the fragrant shoulders were draped with a fur cape, snow-white fur and green satin, snow-white face, and jet-black hair, which contrasted even more.

This beautiful scene immediately attracted the attention of the officers and soldiers in front and behind, and a series of sounds of rolling their throats and swallowing saliva.

The girl seems to have become accustomed to the attention of others, and does not care.

This year's winter came very early, and it was just beginning to be October, and it snowed.

Looking at the large fields in front of her after the snow, breathing in the crisp air of early winter, the girl's face showed a happy color.

The faint smile on the girl's face added three points to her already bright face, and the cavalrymen in front and behind the carriage involuntarily slowed down.

Seeing this scene, among the generals and soldiers surrounding the carriage, two old men hurriedly beat their horses and blocked the front window of the carriage.

The girl was blocked from view and lowered the curtain with a frown.

Bai Shijie is a shrewd person, with a high chest, and the trust of Yan Rui is very important.

But this person also has a well-known problem, that is, lust.

The stunning girl in the car is Bai Shijie's concubine.

Surrounded by many knights, the carriage traveled for an hour on the snow-paved field road, and gradually approached the west gate of Xizhuangzi.

At the west gate, a bunch of young and old stood looking at this side from afar.

The carriage stopped when it was fifty or sixty meters away from the crowd, and Bai Shijie, supported by the new lady and the new lady's personal maid, got off the carriage and walked towards the crowd on foot.

Two young people in the crowd trotted up to meet him and took Bai Shijie from the hands of the new lady.

One of these two young people is Bai Shijun's eldest son, and the other is Bai Shijun's third son, when the two took Bai Shijie's arm, their eyes involuntarily stuck to the new lady's face, until Bai Shijie laughed, he woke up, and his face was suddenly red with shame.

For the gaffe of the two nephews, Bai Shijie not only didn't think it was strange, but also laughed a little proudly.

With the support of his two nephews, Bai Shijie came to Bai Shijun and said, "Meet the eldest brother." ”

Bai Shijun picked up Bai Shijie with both hands, and said in his mouth: "Fifth brother, you are back, with you, the eldest brother has the backbone." As he spoke, his voice was choked.

Not only Bai Shijun is suffering, but the three heroes of West Zhuangzi are all like ants on a hot pot during this time, and they can see the fate of the East Zhuangzi and Yang Bai families.

In the eyes of Haoqiang in this era, losing the land is equivalent to losing the foundation of the family's continuity, which is not much different from the extinction of the clan.
