Chapter 214: The road is narrow
Chapter 220: The road is narrow
Zhang Nan followed closely behind Yang Qing's side, glancing at his lord and commander from time to time.
He felt that Yang Qing had changed.
Ever since Jian Yuwei arrived in the valley on the west side of Shattered Leaf City, Yang Qing met Gao Xianzhi, he had changed; Maybe earlier? Was this change started after Jian Yuwei escaped from the black storm in the desert of Xizhou?
A scholar who was once powerless, a pampered high-ranking official, and a young man with surprisingly good luck seemed to have matured overnight, and his immature face always revealed a sophistication that was extremely incommensurate with his age and a courage that was extremely incommensurate with his experience.
Is all this because of the current war?
Zhang Nan didn't know, let alone heard of it-it takes eighteen years for a girl to mature slowly; And the maturity of a man, perhaps, only takes one night.
A bead of sweat the size of a bean slowly dripped from Yang Qing's left cheek, and the fire cloud under him gradually let out heavier and heavier breathing. There are more than 900 people in the Diaoxiang Brigade from Zhao Wei to Zhao Wei, all of whom rode horses to follow the deputy marshal, rolling up the sand and dust all the way.
At this moment, Yang Qing had no other thoughts in his heart, he just wanted to hurry back to the Chinese army tent of the Anxi Army to meet Gao Xianzhi, the main force of the big cannibal had come!
It must be fast, if Guo Xi's analysis and judgment are accurate, then he will lead thousands of Jian Yuwei to deal with him in ten, ten, or even dozens of times the enemy! Unless the Jian Yu guards are really Rambo, how can they be lucky to get out of the way? Is it possible to complete these two tasks of attracting the enemy and blocking reinforcements?
Xilie, Xilie, you must support it!
In the desert Gobi of Tara Khan, Ayiji's elite squad is galloping briskly on the way back to Samtar City.
The second butler, Sarim, looked sideways at the smug Ayiji, with a hint of reverence in his humble smile.
"Sir, this time is really dangerous, it must be Allah Allah who saw your courage and wisdom and let you lead us to complete the trust of Lord Ziyad. I'm afraid it won't be long before our caravans will be able to spread all over the cities and tents of Zhaowu Zhuhu! β
Ayiji smiled reservedly: "There is a proverb in Dongtu - 'wealth is sought in danger', and there is another saying that 'you can't give up your children and can't trap the wolf', if I don't go through this in person, how can I believe it?" Even Lord Ziyad wouldn't be at ease to send a little minion to do this! Sarim, you say, if I don't make a trip by myself and let you come, will Mouluo Ganda believe you? Will Lord Ziyad be reassured? β
"That's ......," Sarim laughed even more flatteringly.
A hot wind blew through, rolling up a little gravel. The veteran caravan knights skillfully held their breath and closed their eyes, while tightening the reins of their horses and halting their progress for a moment.
The wind and sand gradually subsided, Ayiji spit out a mouthful of saliva wrapped in fine sand and stones, frowned and said: "On this good day, why is there a gust of wind inexplicably?" β
Next to him, Sarim had already skillfully untied his water bladder and handed it over diligently: "Master, you rinse your mouth first." β
Ayiji looked at the second housekeeper who had followed him for many years with satisfaction, and while taking the water bladder, he secretly thought in his heart, it is still easy for the old man to use.
Sarim continued to compliment: "This little wind and sand is actually nothing, the old man can even cope with the investigation of the Tang army, and in the military camp of Gelulu, there is also a lot of talk and laughter, we who are not successful follow the master, not to mention food and clothing, and can make a little fortune, that is also Allah Allah's blessing!" β
Ayiji smiled: "Enough is enough......"
Suddenly, an even more violent wind swept up the sand and dust in the sky, and without warning, it rushed towards Ayiji and his party, and before Sarim could even let out an exclamation, he was immediately poured with a mouthful of sand.
Ayigi has unparalleled experience in surviving in the desert, and when he saw the situation in front of him, he immediately turned his back obediently, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Dismount!" Pull the reins in a circle! β
The slightly panicked horse team quickly quieted down and began to organize a wind-resistant ring in an orderly manner. Ayiji quickly hid himself behind his mount, a shadow looming over his mindβhad he offended the god of the desert?
The unpredictable desert gusts come and go suddenly.
Ayiji shook his head covered by the wind and sand, and was about to speak, but when he raised his eyes, he was horrified to find that on the opposite side of the wind and sand gradually subsided, a group of shadowy black shadows slowly showed a murderous face.
"What people! Stop it! β
What a familiar drinking order, Ayiji only felt that the bitterness in his heart seemed to be more depressing than the mouth full of yellow sand - it was a Tang person! It's actually a Tang person again!
Yang Qing stared with interest at Ayiji, who was standing in front of him with fear, and really felt that the world was too small.
"What's your name?" Zhao Wei coldly inspected the dozen or so people in front of him, and finally locked his eyes on the leader Ayiji.
Ayiji cooperated very well, and immediately said a long series of words loudly, and at the same time bowed deeply to Zhao Wei and Yang Qing.
Zhao Wei suddenly frowned, his head was as big as a bucket - what kind of bird talk is this guy talking about!
"Zuo Lang General! What this nonsense man said...... The last general doesn't understand! β
Yang Qing narrowed his eyes: "Don't we have anyone here who understands nonsense?" Rock Creek! β
Zhang Nan stepped forward from the back row in response: "General Zuo Lang!" Those who are proficient in Hu in the army are all in the formation of General Guo! After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Nan leaned in and whispered: "Although I know a little nonsense under the mark, this person should be talking about the rest of the words, Zhang Nan is incompetent, I really can't understand ......"
Yang Qing suddenly noticed a glimmer of light in Ayiji's eyes, and his heart moved, and he immediately said in a rambling voice: "In this case, it is inconvenient to let them go easily." The two armies are fighting, and the whereabouts of this group of people are quite suspicious, and it may be a spy on the side of Dashi! Since everyone doesn't understand the language, they can't explain a thing or two...... Come on, tie me up! β
Ayiji was really fooled, and his eyes immediately showed horror, and he immediately subconsciously took two steps back.
"You understand!" Yang Qing's eyes sharpened, "Tell me honestly!" Otherwise, you won't be killed! β
"The general spares his life!" After all, Ayiji is just a businessman, and he was glared at by Yang Qing's extremely stern eyes, and he was suddenly frightened, "The villain's name is Ayiji, and he is a businessman from Anxi, and he is definitely not a big eater!" β
Yang Qing pursed his lips and looked up at the sky: "We just met this morning, right?" Ayiji, General Ben is very curious, you hurried east in the morning, it was not dark yet, and you were in a hurry to rush back, where did you go during this day, and who did you go to meet? β
Ayiji opened his mouth to speak, but when he looked up, he found that Yang Qing's eyes were staring at him for a moment, and his heart trembled at the moment, and he couldn't speak anymore.
