The city gate opened, and an old servant waved a white flag and shouted in Tatar language, "We are the people of Tianchengwei, and we have come to work for the army." ”

Nearly twenty cars lined up behind him, and after leaving the city gate, he did not take a step forward, and each time three or five people were together, repeating the phrase in Tatar all the time.

This style surprised several Tatar troops, who had fought for so many years and really never encountered the enemy to labor the army, who knows whether those people were soldiers or civilians. Perhaps because of this, these more than ten departments all looked at others, and no one took the initiative to do it.

After shouting half a stick of incense, it stopped, and after a while, more than a dozen cars tentatively moved forward three or five feet. He stopped and shouted: "We are the people of Tianchengwei, and we have brought grain and grass to work for the army, and we ask to see the commander." ”

Hearing this, there seemed to be a small commotion in the Tatar army. The convoy didn't move forward, but kept shouting the same sentence.

The 50,000 troops handed over to Zhao Yingfeng this time were actually only about 25,000 people, and it was said that more than ten departments were made up, and the actual three major departments accounted for more than half, and the one who sent the most troops was the Geri Letu Department on behalf of Altan Khan. Gřiletu sent 5,000 cavalry, led by his brother Surig.

According to Ge Ri Letu's temperament, if he hadn't heard that this time the troops were just meaningful, and he would have accompanied him on a trip, he would not have sent so many troops. Therefore, before the expedition, I repeatedly explained to Su Rige that if I could not fight, I would not fight, and I would come back early, and grazing in this season was the right thing. Perhaps, they were the direct subordinates of Altan Khan, so after the departure, more than half of the small units unconsciously followed Surig.

And the other two, one is the Ural Department in the northwest, they have a total of 3,000 cavalry, obviously the most northwestern tribe, but they are assigned to fight the Tianchengwei in the southeast, almost across the Monan grassland, it is impossible to have no grievances in their hearts. The chieftain, Bozhigede, knew almost no one and only had a few acquaintances with Surig. So these 3,000 cavalry almost came into their own.

The other is the Chahan Division, which is also a cavalry of more than 3,000 people, plus the Habuqik who leads the army has a bold temperament, and has gathered many small troops.

In the face of such a situation, Bozhige did not plan to talk to him, the coach was Zhao Yingfeng, but unfortunately, I don't know when it will come, and the Ural Department is not superior in numbers, no matter how I say it, he doesn't need to call the shots for this kind of thing. As a result, these 3,000 people collectively stood by and watched.

The Chahan tribe was in chaos for a while, and several small army leaders seemed to discuss around Habuqik, and finally Habqik went straight to Suzhige's camp.

"Brother, what should I do about this?" As he walked, Habchik said, "I saw that they were still carrying sheep. ”

Surig looked at Habuqik, who walked into his tent like this, and didn't say anything, but he sat down and looked at Surige with some expectation.

One of them couldn't help but say, "I saw it too." It's good to have more food and grass, and we can gather around for a moment longer, after all, I don't know when the manager will arrive. ”

"This is the third time we have asked us not to wait for him." Habqik said a little unpleasantly: "I didn't wait for the first two times, can you blame us?" Habuqik glanced at everyone, "Actually, there are so many of us, a little Tianchengwei, and we will fight and fight." ”

"At that time, he said that he Zhao Yingfeng took the lead." Surig chuckled.

"So what's going to happen to this?" Habqik asked everyone.

"Anyway, this time only Tianchengwei arrived, and now Tiancheng has also arrived. Everyone in Yanghe and Gaoshan has also gained something, less is a little less ......, and the task given to us by the Great Khan can be regarded as completed, right? "Another small leader has already given birth to the intention of retiring. Cattle and sheep are going to give birth, they are going to move to pastures, and the men are still here, what is this called? Go back earlier to lose less.

Hearing him say this, Habqik laughed, "I know that good things are in Tianchengwei, if you want to leave, I won't stop you." This trip must not be in vain. Then he said to Surig: "In this way, I will go and collect the things, anyway, brothers, I will not swallow it alone, you have it here, Bozhigede there." If you want to discuss, you can discuss, and tomorrow we will come in the same way. He laughed again as he spoke, "Maybe after a few turns, they will open the city again, haha......." ”

Regardless of Suzhige's opinion, he left directly.

Su Rige looked at him, really a little speechless. One of the people on the side whispered: "This person has a really big heart, and he dares to accept anything......." ”

"Surig." The one who wanted to retreat spoke again: "Did Zhao Yingfeng say when it would arrive?" ”

Surig was a little impatient, "What I know is what you know. He hadn't arrived at Takayama yet. ”

"Schaub, do you want to go?" Finally, someone asked what many people had to say.

Schob smiled embarrassedly, "Well, it's not right away." For so many days, the rapid march was also tiring. Besides, maybe Habqik really got to it. ”

In Su Rige's eyes, everyone wanted to leave early, but Zhao Yingfeng just didn't come, he was really helpless. However, when I think of my brother's words, 'It's better to fight Daming than Wara.' 'Just wait, there's no loss anyway.'

**********

Seeing that the other party did not use weapons, Tianchengwei's grain delivery convoy moved forward several feet. Just as he was about to continue shouting, the other party began to shout, "Come here, come to the front of the big formation." ”

Gao Changjing nodded, and the convoy slowly moved towards the front of the big formation. When he arrived at the designated place, Gao Changjing took a few steps forward and said in a loud voice: "Under Gao Changjing, he is the shopkeeper of Tiancheng Weixing's foot shop. ”

Dozens of soldiers walked out of the large array, "Are you really here to deliver something?" ”

"Yes." Gao Changjing asked several regiments, "Can Gao meet the boss?" ”

"You're just a commoner, why do you want to see the boss?"

"Gao has the courage to ask the coach for a favor."

"What do you want?"

Gao Changjing replied with a smile, "It's inconvenient to talk about it explicitly." Can you take Gao to meet the coach? ”

A few soldiers gathered around, discussed for a while, and then turned around and asked Gao Changjing, "Are you from the Holy Sect?" ”

Gao Changjing smiled noncommittally, "Everything is here, you can send someone to receive it, and I am the only one who is taller to meet the boss, you don't have to worry." ”

Someone came up, looked Gao Changjing up and down, felt that one hand could pinch him to death, and laughed, "You, follow me." And to the other soldiers, "Put things away, point them clearly, don't mess around." ”

Gao Changjing followed the soldiers directly into the camp.

Habqik sat in the middle of the tent, surrounded by the leaders of the small tribes that followed him. Seeing Gao Changjing coming in alone, he asked with a smile: "Holy Sect?" ”

After Gao Changjing smiled and saluted, he replied: "You can't say this clearly. ”

"Hahaha......." Habchik laughed, "What's so hard about that? How many soldiers did we collect from Gao Shanwei? One thousand or two thousand? Thumbs up, "The Holy Sect is amazing!" I admired them all. ”

Gao Changjing was secretly shocked in his heart, but he remained silent, and replied with a smile: "I'm ashamed." ”

"You're here to discuss attachment too?"

Gao Changjing had an idea, and said with a smile: "Tianchengwei is the ...... of the main city of the Holy Sect on the front line of Xuanda. ”

Habqik frowned.

Seeing Habuqik's expression, Gao Changjing continued: "It's just that it's not public. Eighty percent of us are saints......"

"Wait, you say the people? How many people are there? What about the defenders? Also? Habqik asked.

"The Ming frontier has always liked to change guards, and the garrison in one place has never been stationed in one place for a long time. This time, the garrison was only exchanged for half a year ago. Gao Changjing saw that there were no Han people present, and it was estimated that the one or two thousand Han soldiers attached to him did not gain their trust, so he boldly talked nonsense.

Seeing that Habuqik listened carefully, he simply continued to make up: "There are 50,000 people in the city, most of whom are young and strong. The defenders were more than 10,000 ....... ”

"More than 10,000 in an acropolis?" A small leader on the side of Habuqik interrupted him, looked incredulous, turned to Habuqik and said: "There are only more than 5,000 defenders of an acropolis in Daming, where are there so many?" ”

"This one may not have heard clearly," Gao Changjing still had a calm face. "The Acropolis army is changing its guards, although it started half a year ago, but now it is the moment when there are the most people in the city, that is, both armies are in Tiancheng."

"Wait, you just said that Tianchengwei is the Holy Sect Main City?" The other leader spoke.

Gao Changjing smiled and nodded.

The man also turned to Habuqik and said, "Shall we ask about this?" ”

Habchik asked, "Whom to ask?" Our ...... I haven't even arrived. ”

Gao Changjing continued to smile and said, "If you want to ask, it's best to ask the leader of the sect. Our business is a secret, otherwise Tianchengwei may not exist in the world. ”

"Don't worry about this, if he doesn't know, then no one in the world will know." Habqik replied casually.

Gao Changjing's heart jumped, could it be that the boss this time was actually a member of the White Lotus Sect, or the leader? It won't be ...... Zhao Quan? "Okay, I've finished what Gao has to say."

Habqik frowned, looked at each other with a few people present, and didn't understand at all, why did this person finish speaking? "What do you want?"

Gao Changjing said: "The people of Tianchengwei will not move. And for all of you, for the Holy Sect, such a Heavenly Guardian must also exist. You can believe me or not, think about why you haven't fought Tianchengwei in the past few years, you should have some numbers, right? ”

Habqik suddenly reacted, "You mean to let us retreat?" ”

Gao Changjing nodded, "It's okay to fight if you want to, it's just that there are more defenders now." In the following opinion, you can think of a way, Gao can lead the people in the city to cooperate. After all, I am a Han Chinese, and the defenders are defenseless against me, just like they will open the city and let us out. ”

"You mean, you're going back?" Habqik was somewhat surprised. Aren't they all running away? Back to the city? After all, he thought just now that this person came to seek a way to live.

Gao Changjing smiled bitterly, "The forty thousand Saint Sect members in the city are still waiting. ”

A few of you here are looking at me and I looking at you, and no one can figure out why this battle is so strange.

Gao Changjing saw that they didn't seem to be able to settle down, and he already knew that the few people here were afraid that they were just a leader and couldn't be the master. So he smiled and said, "Why don't you go and think of a way first, Gao is here for a while?" ”

Several small leaders motioned to Habqik to discuss with Surig with their eyes, and Habuqik smiled, "It's okay." Mr. Gao will sit down first, and I will come when I go. ”

Habuchik went out of the tent and did not go to Suzhige, but went directly to Bozhigede's tent.
