Dong Guozhang was still waiting for Dia Niao to call him, and he didn't wait until the carriage of the horse team opened with a depression that went deep into the bone marrow.

It was as if Dia had forgotten the carriage and that he was still in it.

He secretly lifted the curtain and saw Diao, who was dressed in the same standard armor as a soldier, and was on a horse, walking beside the carriage.

Why doesn't he call himself?

Dong Guozhang felt irritable in his heart.

Did you forget?

Or do you think you're sleeping?

Should I open the curtain and talk to him?

Staying in the carriage for longer and longer, not falling asleep, not making a sound, don't people think more and more that they are peeking at his Dongxia secrets?

He had a headache.

Outside.

Diao, however, was lost in thought.

He didn't forget Dong Guozhang, nor did he deliberately not shout, Dong Guozhang drove him out, he must be sleepy, this enemy is coming, and he can't hinder him as an old man, what are you shouting for? If people are sleeping, they will be out of danger when they wake up, and they will not even be frightened? Moreover, he does have a very serious matter to think about now, this Tuoba has gathered one or twenty thousand rabble, and even put aside the relationship with their Tuoba clan, the secret government has already figured it out, it really doesn't matter, even the two Tuoba Thousand Households are not involved.

The dark government is also starting to divide these small tribes, although they did not directly mix in the coalition army, but found some small tribes that were originally close to the pasture, coercing and luring.

There should not have been such a sudden military action.

Dia Bird was originally regarded as a temptation for the Tuoba clan, but with this wave of invasion that directly bypassed Bao Lan and penetrated deep into the hinterland, the temptation turned into anger.

Angering Dongxia, would it do him any good to the Tuoba clan?

Is the Central Plains battlefield already in full swing? The Tuoba clan has a military advantage on the battlefield, and its pride is inflated, so it doesn't care who Dongxia is standing on?

Wrong.

Was his intention discovered by the Tuoba clan?

The Tuoba clan was originally paralyzing himself?

Or is the Tuobashi just making themselves think they're paralyzing themselves?

The Tuoba clan's spies must also be in Baolan.

If purely in terms of troops, the current Bao Lan does not have many more soldiers and horses than before, which he Di Ah Niao personally arranged, he did not have the intention of cheating, he had already transferred the extra 10,000 troops to the direction of Xia Zhou in the south, away from Bao Lan, hiding troops outside......

War is like that.

No one can completely crack the enemy's conspiracy.

Sometimes, even if the enemy's purpose is strategically grasped, an accident, an accident, or even a mistake and stupidity of the opponent will constitute a new fog.

At least the current Diao's bird is confused.

Although he was no longer sweating like he was sweating when he first commanded a large-scale battle of tens of thousands of people, he was also extremely uneasy in his heart.

You must know that this is a war to destroy the country, and it is possible that the war will escalate, and Dongxia will recruit more than 100,000 young and strong people across the country to fight to the death with the enemy, and if you are not careful, the death toll will increase by thousands.

He really couldn't guess the enemy's intentions, and he didn't guess either.

For the time being, this wave of invasion by the enemy will not bring much harm to Dongxia, and he still has the confidence to annihilate the enemy within the country.

He's already thinking about what he's going to do next.

And just under their destination, the blacksmith in the eight households has not stopped his work.

Dongxia seems to have no shortage of copper and iron overnight, and the people's demand for utensils is realized in the hands of blacksmiths like him. There was an atlas booklet in his hand, which was the standard pattern of the scythe, and Salikhan glanced at it, and smiled again. He didn't expect that the patterns of these utensils would be issued in the township records of the Eastern Xia Kingdom, no wonder people said that Dia Niao had beaten iron for a period of time when he was in the Central Plains, otherwise why would he even have to take care of the blacksmith's affairs?

Saying that the tube is not a tube, this map is for the blacksmiths' reference, this sickle is forgotten, I know how to fight, but it is not the appearance on the map, but some really don't know how to fight, like the copper pin component on the Lele car.

The horseshoe, which has a wide range of uses, a small piece of iron, is drawn in large on the picture, and the palm, front hoof, and hind hoof are decomposed into palm eyes, front hooves, and hind hooves, and I really don't know how to let the blacksmiths evaluate it.

Salihan's companion was also his former Bayara, and now he took the initiative to give freedom to the slaves, Baya, and the people, and settled down with those who were unwilling to go, so that they were the eight families.

They usually herd together and strike iron together, but the title has not changed, and one of them said, "Master." What do you mean by this Dia bird? Even if he strikes iron, he will give a picture? Does he know everything, and he has to tell everyone what the gods know? If this is to tell people how to strike iron, people who have never beaten iron can learn to strike iron little by little by themselves with this booklet. Yes, there are no drawings of weapons, but if you draw a diagram of a furnace for striking iron, and draw all kinds of objects, can you make these complex things with iron, but you can't make weapons? He doesn't know who can strike iron, who can get iron, who can build weapons, who can have iron weapons, who can defeat the enemy? ”

Salihan interrupted, "But what about the enemy? Death to the murderer, robbery,* fraud, theft, the horse of its own Dia bird pursues it with a swift wind, do you still have enemies? ”

Samar, the brother of Saliham, said, "Yes." But we do. ”

Salhan struck the red-hot iron vigorously until it dimmed, and then put it into the charcoal furnace, and then whispered, "We are no more." Dia Bird is no longer an enemy of our family, and since he spared us, the grudge has been written off. His Great Xia Law does not allow revenge to be avenged, and does not allow the people to fight privately. ”

His younger brother said excitedly: "He wrote the Great Xia Law, and of course he will not allow us to seek revenge on him." ”

Salihan's eyes were red and he said, "That's right. The Great Xia Law was written by him. But none of the khans finished writing their laws and published them to the people, asking you if you agreed or not. Only he did. No one in the Eastern Xia Kingdom disagreed, or only one or two out of a hundred people disagreed. ”

The crowd was silent.

After a long time, his brother said, "Then let's go and tell him." We disagree. ”

Salhan said, "How many battles have you fought with me, and how many people have you killed, and what if their relatives have taken revenge on you first?" He said: "His father and his uncle both died in the Central Plains, and he did not go to take revenge, because he remembered the favor given to him by the Emperor of the Central Plains, and wanted the grain, tea, and salt and iron of the Central Plains to feed the people of Dongxia and make the people of Dongxia rich." For the sake of the people of Dongxia, he could not take revenge, nor was he afraid of jokes, but now the laughter is getting less and less, and it has almost disappeared, because you can't give a slap in the face to someone who feeds you. ”

And when they were saying these things, they saw two horsemen coming from afar.

The two men were getting closer and closer to the shed where they were striking iron, perhaps they had come to fetch utensils, and Salihan did not care, but one of them approached and began to sing: "Dear Salihantanda." Your old friend has come to see it. The battlelord of the battlefield, the leader of thousands of households, did he choose to save up enough strength in patience, or beat the iron with peace of mind? ”

Salihan turned his head, saw clearly, and asked in disbelief, "Bay-Usun." How did you get here? Why are you here? ”

The cavalry at the head jumped off their horses.

He threw the reins, lifted his cloak, and approached step by step, waving his hands as if he were chanting or singing: "Why can't I come?" Could it be that this Dongxia is destined to be his Dia bird's? You must know that Tuoba Khan's hundreds of thousands of iron horsemen will step in at any time and crush Bao Lan, this is our opportunity. Yes. Opportunity. I took 200 cavalry as the spearhead, to contact you old men and raise an army against him. ”

When he saw that Salkhan pulled out the piece of iron and struck it again, he laughed and said, "Do you still want to strike iron?" My valiant Tanda, my two hundred cavalry, rested in the woods over there, only a few dozen miles from here. If you have to knock the utensils in your hand into shape, then you can beat me, give me a sharp blade that can kill the bird and destroy his country. ”

Salikhan exchanged glances with his companion.

Salihan's younger brother Samar smiled first, and said with a wry smile: "Bayusun, you have lived in the west of the Rama River for too long, are you still stuck in the past? If you can get revenge. Me and my brother. Why do we need to make a living here by grazing herds? The Eastern Xia Kingdom is already his Dia Bird's. This is a fact that cannot be changed. What can your two hundred cavalry do? ”

He burst into tears and asked, "Our chance?" Defeat Diao's innumerable army of tigers and wolves with two hundred cavalry? ”

He said, "I went to Baolan. I heard that Xiahou Wulu's son often went in and out of Baolan. I think. Let me meet him, maybe I should see what this enemy looks like, and when I got to Nabaolan, which was as prosperous as a bee's hive, I got lost three times in it. ”

The other cavalry had also dismounted.

He said loudly: "But he occupies Eastern Xia, fights many battles, and kills so many people, he has countless enemies." We are not madmen, we did not think of defeating him with two hundred cavalry. But what about Tuoba Khan. He had an army of hundreds of thousands and millions. The leader of Bayi Wusun said that it was our chance, and that Tuoba Khan would send troops to defeat him. We call his innumerable enemies to work out now. ”

The corners of Salhan's mouth were drawn into a line, and when his hand shook, the iron could no longer be beaten, so he shook off the iron tongs and loosened them, threw the iron into the corner, and said to the people around him, "Scrap." ”

He said in a deep voice, "Honorable Leader Bayiusun. The Salihan, who was on horseback and always holding his saber, was no longer alive, he was just a herdsman, a blacksmith, and you had found the wrong person. While I haven't changed my mind yet. You'd better hurry up. There are no more enemies in the Eastern Xia Kingdom. Those enemies are dead. Dead like me. I don't know why that's happening. But in Eastern Xia, he already had no enemies. He won the Eastern Xia, the whole Eastern Xia. All your imagination comes from when you are there, and you change as soon as you leave, and you don't know how much has changed. ”

Bayi Wusun was murderous and asked, "Would you rather fight iron here for the rest of your life?" ”

He stood on tiptoe and laughed mockingly: "You don't even have the people anymore, they have all been taken away by the king of Dongxia." Look. What else do you have besides your wife and children, and a few former brothers who are not far from you? Can you eat well? Are you grazing? Do you have hundreds of sheep? I invite you, I respect you, even if you are like a chicken in water, I still treat you the same way I treat a leader...... I want to get back everything you used to be. ”

Salihan's eyes narrowed together, and he whispered: "Thank you for treating me like a chief, I can indeed eat well, and I have thousands of sheep, more than forty horses, a former brother in the horse gang, that is my money, I have eighty percent of the income, my brother-in-law has a knight, I got the quarry, I have a shop, I also have a lot of money, I can get fifty percent of the income, and I can also strike iron, I can change two sheep a day at least a day when I make iron." ”

He said with contempt: "Three months ago, the township invited me to go to Yuyang to participate in the national examination, saying that there is my name in the state, but if there is a name in the state, as long as you learn to write and write, most of you can be the flag owner of the county flag when you come back, and there are tens of thousands of households in a county flag, which is ten thousand households." But I didn't go. Because I don't want to die for Diao. A month ago a thief stole one of my horses, and only found out about it when I counted it at night, and the next day I said to look around to see if it was lost or taken by wolves, and who knew that on the third day, Diao's horse was about to send me back, and told me that it had been stolen, and that the thief could not bear to be interrogated when he sold the horse, and was caught, and that he was going to work in the mines for three years. The day before yesterday, my daughter was old, I dressed her in silk, she was chubby, her face was as ruddy as an apple, she ate too well that day, and it was thin at night, her aunt only spent two Dongxia coins, and Langzhong of the township flag fried a pair of herbs, and after eating a pair, it was fine today. You are also a leader, and I hope you will understand the truth that whoever can make his people rich and stable will have the hearts of the people. If I were you, I would never come back, and I would never covet Dongxia again, because Dongxia no longer has a place for you to stand, and you will never be qualified to be called Khan. ”

Baywusun's face became extremely ugly, and his hand was already on the hilt of the sword.

But he would not do it lightly, his cavalry was not around, and he did not have the confidence to defeat Salihan, so he snorted softly and said, "It is better to speak than to sing." ”

As soon as he turned around, he shouted to the people around him, "He will regret it." Let's go. ”

Salhan watched as the two of them could not go, and when he turned around, he said to his brother beside him, "Baywusun is a wolf, and he grew up drinking human blood. Look at your home, prepare your weapons, and protect your home. I went to the township banner, and Bayi Wusun came back with the soldiers, and the township banner must not have known yet, if they did not know, they could not gather the men to meet the enemy, and they could not transfer the soldiers, they would not know how many people would be killed and wounded. ”
