On the road leading to the Gulu mine, a cavalry of two hundred men was advancing, and the cool sun and mountain roads could not stop their firm steps. No one spoke, all silently following behind their main general, Li Huaitang, who was very awkward in riding.

In the battle of the South Gate, the cavalry of the Guangming Department was expanded to 600 horses, with 800 horses, leaving 400 horsemen to guard the city of Qishi, Li Huaitang personally led 200 horsemen with two horses, and under the guidance of the capital, he couldn't wait to pounce on the Gulu mine.

To rescue those Tang Nu, two hundred horsemen were enough. Kubaido's guard force in the mine was only 200 people, and dozens of them were former subordinates of the guard.

Originally, according to Wumeng's suggestion, Hudu led a hundred horsemen to Kublaido's mine to rescue 3,000 Tang slaves, but Li Huaitang still insisted on going in person. Compared with bringing freedom to those slaves, reaping loyalty was more important to Li Huaitang. For this reason, Li Huaitang also specially prepared a bundle of branches and a big fat man......

Kublai Duo's iron ore is traced fifty miles along the Dumo River in the east of Qishi City, and then two hundred miles southeast over the mountains and mountains, and it will reach the boundary of the Gulu Kingdom. In order to hide people's eyes, Kublai Duo called his private mine the Gulu Mine, and almost all the miners used were Tang slaves, not only because Tang slaves could bear hardships and stand hard work, but also because of language barriers, even if the slaves escaped, they could reduce the probability of being discovered by the big cannibals.

With this in mind, Kubidor purchased a large number of Tang slaves from Abdullah, a great food merchant. These Tang slaves are all from the lair of the Turgish people, and some of them are the remnants of the Tang Dynasty, and when the Turgish people occupied Broken Leaf Town, they regarded them as the results of the battle; Part of it is the population that the Turgish people looted back from the four towns of Anxi in the Tang Dynasty last year. The Turgish took them into slavery and sold them all over the river. The Great Food Country has an extremely vast territory and a relatively sparse population, and the demand for slaves is like the appetite of a whale that can never be satisfied, making the slave traders make a lot of money, and the Turgish people will certainly not let go of this opportunity.

Another quiet night passed. Just after the hour, there was a cacophony mixed with the terrifying sound of hunting whips, and the whole mine began to come alive. The overseer of the Gulu Mine, more than a dozen Kunlun slaves drove the exhausted 3,000 Tang slaves up with leather whips to mine. The numb slaves gathered together and mechanically made their way to the clearing where several buckets were placed, waiting to take a sip of cold water before they had to fight the mountain.

In the past two days, no one has been here to tell anyone what happened in the city. For the sake of secrecy, Kubidto ordered a supply depot to be set up in the mine, which was stacked with enough food for thousands of people to eat for several months. Unless it is supply time, no one usually comes to this mine, and those who accidentally break in are arrested and used as slaves, and even the entry and exit of goods are arranged at the same time as the supply team.

"Damn Kunlun slave, you deceive people too much! It's better to fight with them than to survive like this! ”

A strong man's indignation said that the cold cold water had just driven away the drowsiness in his body.

"Alas, save some, even if you run now, where can you run?"

A man beside him, who was about his age, said sadly, with a hint of fear in his eyes, looking into the air above his head, where there was something that frightened him.

In the open space for eating and drinking, there is a huge stone, next to the boulder, there are more than a dozen logs, each of which hangs a headless rotting corpse, the mountain wind blows, swaying strangely, always reminding the miners that death is so close to them. The bodies would be hung here until new ones were replaced, and the heads of the corpses had been cut off and neatly arranged in a hill along with the hundreds of other heads, stacked at the entrance and exit of the mine. The Lits said contemptuously that this was an example of flight and resistance.

Also, in a ravine to the north of the mine, there was a terrible wolf howl from time to time.

The entire mine has maintained the scale of more than 3,000 slaves, and new slaves are constantly replacing dead slaves. Those who could not survive the exertion and collapsed, and fled unyieldingly, were all sent to that ravine, where at least hundreds of headless compatriots were laid to rest. The brothers who carried the corpses said that there were already a lot of bones there, attracting countless wild wolves to gather nearby to eat, and at night, there were many pairs of chilling eyes flashing in the ravine.

The strong man fell silent, he knew that even if all the slaves obeyed him and rose up to resist, he was afraid that they would be powerless. The Lits never fed them, they ate just enough every day to keep them from starving to death, the intense workload overdrew everyone's physical strength, and even in the harsh winter, there was not a complete body wrap. The slaves, who had been tortured for many years, had won and weakened.

Moreover, the fierce cavalry of Lite were all armed with bows and arrows, and waited at the only entrance and exit, as if waiting for another game of wolf hunting.

The strong man is not reconciled, in the past year, he has endured countless inhuman tortures, and if he does not flee, this will be his final destination. For him, there are only two ways to die, one is to die of exhaustion, and it is estimated that he can survive for a while, and the other is to fall on the road of escape, and there may still be a glimmer of life.

The strong man clenched the weapon in his hand, a wooden-handled pickaxe, the tool he used to obtain from the mountain, and as he walked, he stared at the cedar forest a stone's throw away from the mining site, which was halfway up the mountain, and the peak did not look very high, and should be able to climb over it. He had been on the lookout for a long time, and there was an opportunity to sneak into the cedar forest in the afternoon, as long as he took advantage of the Kunlun Nu's laziness to avoid the scorching sun, he was completely sure that he would not be discovered.

He knows the consequences of being caught. But if you don't try, how can the hatred buried in your heart be rewarded? It's been a whole year, when will this day be the end?

When the morning meal time was in the morning, all that was waiting for the slaves was a meal of unpalatable coarse grain, and there was no extra time to rest, so the Kunlun slaves waved their leather whips to drive them back to work and continued to sweat. At noon, you can drink water and rest for about a pillar of incense, and at this time, the opportunity arises......
