Chapter 257: I Met My Companion

The fierce 'sex' personality is closely related to the environment in which she is located, Pei Xiaoniang, Mrs. Xian saw Ye Ji's majestic side, but Qi Jishan saw her difficult living environment, carrying a crossbow and a knife and bow, relying on self-protection at the slightest threat, like a hedgehog curling and shaking thorns, this is what people living in Luoyang, Chang'an do not need to do.

Qi Jishan sighed in his heart, Ye Jijiao's little lady is still like this, you can imagine the hardships of the Western Regions, and the self-made city lord of Ningyuan City, it is hard to imagine how strong it will be.

On the way back to Qi Mansion, Ye Ji and Qi Jishan were in the same carriage.

"Ye Ji, tell me the truth, do you have anything to do with the big cannibal?"

Qi Jishan is most worried about Ye Ji and their relationship with the Great Cannibal, in that case, it will promote the interests of the Tang Dynasty, which is intolerable to the Tang Dynasty, once the powerful Great Food calmly deploys its forces on the border of the Tang Dynasty, Anxi and Beiting will be in danger.

Ye Ji was stunned for a moment, the past was unbearable, his fingers clenched into fists, and he said hatefully: "The big cannibal and the Tuqi Shi people are both raccoon dogs, Ye Ji will never compromise with them in his lifetime, they are all Shiro's enemies, and they are also Ye Ji's enemies." ”

"Shiro?"

Qi Jishan was suspicious, and immediately realized: "My nephew's 'girl' is the fourth in the family? ”

Ye Ji smiled, shook her head, and changed the topic: "Why did Uncle ask about the big cannibal?" ”

"Your incomparably capable husband has caused trouble, and he actually made a big fuss in the territory of the Turgish people, and even conquered the town of Broken Leaves, and even the princess of the 'Jiao' River was almost captured by him. Last night, the letter of the princess of the 'handover' river was urgently presented to the desk of the saint through eight hundred miles, and she did her best to slander it, saying that Ningyuan City was built by the support of the big cannibals, and she had colluded with the big cannibals, and asked the Tang Dynasty to support and severely punish the horse, oh, it's Li Huaitang, your husband. ”

"Huh!?"

Ye Ji was taken aback. When she arrived in Datang with the caravan, Li Huaitang also told him that he was going to wait for the rabbit, he was a hunter, and the princess of Tubo was a rabbit. Why did you go to sweep the 'sweeping' of the Turks again in a blink of an eye?

The news that the Tubo princess married Tuqi Shi was a little heard of it, and what she said when she came to Gu Si last year confirmed this rumor. Ye Ji's 'exposed' situation undoubtedly made him overjoyed, and he forgot his identity for a while, grabbed Ye Ji's shoulders and 'excitedly' said: "What? You said that the princess of Tubo was intercepted by Li Huaitang? ”

"This, Ye Ji doesn't know. It's just that when Shiro sent Ye Ji to the border of the Tang Dynasty, he happened to catch two Tubo messengers, and learned that the Tubo people's family sending party was going to pass near Ningyuan City, and Shiro said that he was going to ambush them. As for the later situation, Ye Ji didn't know what happened. ”

Ye Ji didn't understand why Qi Jishan was so 'excited', and his former calmness was completely gone.

"Good, good, good! is worthy of being my good nephew 'girl'. "The ruddy joy 'color' overflowed Qi Jishan's face. Destroying the marriage between Tubo and Tuqi Shi is the strategy of the Tang Dynasty, and the Holy Lord once instructed the Honglu Temple to plan, but unfortunately it did not achieve the slightest effect, if what Ye Ji said is conclusive, then Li Huaitang is the hero of the Tang Dynasty.

He understands the emperor's mind, face is one of them, the marriage between Tubo and Tuqi Shi is undoubtedly the face of the heavenly family, everyone in the world knows, the Tubo people and the Tang Dynasty have a gap, and the Sulu Khan of Tuqi Shi also married the princess of the 'Jiao' River first, and now marries the princess of Tubo, where is the face of the Tang Dynasty Son of Heaven? Second, Sulu Khan, as the spokesperson of the Tang Dynasty against the Great Food, has expanded his strength too quickly, and there are some signs of detachment, and the rise of Li Huaitang is undoubtedly the best chess piece to contain the two powerhouses in the Western Regions. Unless the Son of Heaven is a faint monarch, otherwise, he will not 'waste' such a good opportunity, and it is undoubtedly the most beneficial for Datang to support a family to compete with Da Shi and Tu Caishi. This means that the Tang Army's expedition to Ningyuan City will become a false proposition.

"Ye Ji, go back and prepare, the situation is urgent, we will leave tomorrow."

"Go? Where to? ”

"Your home, Ningyuan City! I'm going to meet the legends of the Western Regions for a while! ”

Qi Jishan suddenly had a feeling that this time would be a turning point in his career. What he didn't know was that the person he was going to meet was facing an unknown predicament at the moment.

On a wasteland plateau hundreds of miles south of Talas, Li Huaitang left a footprint of "visiting here" to show off his military exploits to the world. Without making too many stops, he immediately led his army to the southwest, intending to bypass the Dallas Desert and take the trade route from Qianquan and Baishui City to Zhezhi City, avoiding the army of Sulu Khan and Mohe Dagan in the southeast, and let them strike hard in the air, and there was nowhere to use their strength.

There were several merchants who acted as guides for Li Huaitang, and their camel mounts were forcibly bought by Li Huaitang, and several of them were very bold and willing to follow Li Huaitang back to Ningyuan City.

For the light cavalry, the road was not difficult, and although the road was desolate and full of salt and sand, the soldiers of the Ministry of Light had long been prepared, and the fresh water carried by nearly two thousand camels and thousands of pack horses was a guarantee for them to cross this inaccessible area.

Kuhan was a miscellaneous beard, very bold, and often took this trade route, and had 'dealings' with the horse bandits on the road, and his caravans were always undisturbed, and of course, he had to 'pay' an "annual fee" to the horse bandits. However, this time it was very unlucky, dozens of camels were bought by Li Huaitang, although on the surface he did not have any loss, but he felt a thief in his heart, no camels meant that he lost a business opportunity to sell goods from Talas back to Zhezhi City, and also lost valuable time.

"General, don't lie to me, when you get to Ningyuan City, you can return my camel to me, and I don't want your reward."

Along the way, Kuhan kept pestering Li Huaitang and nagging, Li Huaitang was so annoyed that he gave him a promise, as long as he led the way smoothly, he would reward him with a hundred pack horses when he arrived in Ningyuan City. In this expedition, Li Huaitang captured a large number of horses, including more than 10,000 war horses and pack horses, 100 pack horses are nothing to him, even a burden, and millions of livestock, which has reached the carrying limit of his territory. Half of the pack horses, Li Huaitang planned to sell them in the business area of Ningyuan City, and sent a hundred or so horses to Kuhan to do a favor.

Li Huaitang said angrily: "Come on, don't talk nonsense!" How long is it to get to Thousand Springs? ”

He had to quickly reach the Stone Country when the Turgish reacted, go around behind the Stone Country and let the Stone Country wait for the Stone Country to be in the south of the Talas Desert.

"Well, it's not far, and it will take half an hour and a half to get there. However, "Kuhan looked solemn, looking left and right, as if he was looking for something."

Li Huaitang asked vigilantly, "But what?" ”

Thousand springs, as the name suggests, have thousands of springs, and are located in the north of the most downstream of the Chu River. After the frenzied extraction of the Talas Desert and the evaporation of the scorching sun, the Chu River was weakened and weakened when it reached the point where it had broken off, and with a large amount of salt it formed a salt swamp in the wasteland, which was not suitable for human and animal consumption. Therefore, all merchants who came and went to this trade route had to go to Qianquan to replenish fresh water, and a powerful horse bandit took a fancy to the natural superior conditions here, and blatantly charged protection money from passing merchants with scimitars. That's what Kuhan feared, if they both stumbled, he might not only not be able to recover the camels, but he might also be caught in the pond.

"Horse bandits?"

Li Huaitang felt ironic, once upon a time, wasn't his identity a horse bandit? Looks like you're going to meet your peers...... Please keep in mind the URL, if you like "War Owl in Tang" written by the wolf under the moon
