Ancient wars are strange.

Sometimes the Lord will die in battle, and the whole army will fight to the death with the same hatred of the enemy.

But sometimes, the army that was originally imposing will collapse in the blink of an eye.

Undoubtedly, horse thieves fall into the latter category.

Win!

This war was won a little abruptly, and it was won a little fluke.

Anyway, a bloody battle brought more than 200 soldiers and 1,000 prisoners to Yang Shuang.

In the future, whether it is divided into archers or pikemen, the total number of troops can reach 500, and the labor force will exceed 2,000.

The post-war period was quite cumbersome.

The walls needed to be repaired, the gates needed to be remade, the wounded needed to be recuperated, and the corpses needed to be collected.

Entering September, the weather in Dunhuang is even hotter.

Yang Shuang, who was wearing only a pair of crotch pants, lay on the rocking chair next to the city gate building, drowsy.

In the city, a large amount of fine salt was packed into cloth bags, and then loaded into trucks, ready to follow Ma Lao Er and sell to the Central Plains.

It is illegal to sell salt, but the Turks went south, and the Great Sui was full of smoke, and they took the trail to Nanchen, and it is estimated that the officials did not have time to care.

Outside the city, the fields are filled with fields, and countless men, women, and children are busy among them, doubling the land regardless of whether there is barren grass or not.

The turbulent stream, drawn from the dark water, alleviates the hunger and thirst of the saplings on both sides, and adds a few more greens to the barren land.

This is the future of Yumen Pass, and it is also the hope for everyone's survival.

"Boom ······"

"It's thundering, it's raining, hurry home and pack your clothes!!" Yang Shuang was bored.

The pass gradually developed towards the city, but in this place where birds don't, let alone caravans, even the legendary treasure seekers are difficult to see.

There is no one but the horse thief!

Suddenly, he advertised a game: five peasants, one city!

"Boom la la ······"

"Wo Cao! It's really raining?!! ”

The heavy rain slapped on his face, with a hint of coolness, and Yang Shuang snorted violently.

"It's school! Mr. said that today's homework is to write about rain! ”

"It's so hard!"

"Dog, you are distracted in class, Mr. said, homework can be written poems, can also write short essays, and can also draw! I've decided, just draw our Yumen Pass! ”

There were very few children in Yumen Pass, only eighteen boys who were supported by the hundred families in Canghe City.

In ancient times, patriarchy was inseparable from the policies of various dynasties.

Because men have Yongye fields, they can be passed down from generation to generation. And the woman, but only Sangtian, was nationalized after his death.

It is difficult for ordinary people to feed such a large population, and it is very likely that the newborn girl will drown in the toilet, not to mention the horse thief who is in danger.

The woman can rob, but after staying, it must be a brat with a handle.

Yang Shuang wants to change this atmosphere, but now there is no way to start, since Widow Liu accidentally fell into the dark water and drowned, there are no women in Yumen Pass.

Education should start from the baby, a gentleman is proficient in all six arts.

Among the horse thieves, there are also students who read and learn words, what three character scriptures, hundred family names, Yang Shuang modified part of the content, and burned it on the stone tablet. It was also stipulated that no matter how old they were, they must learn to read and write within one month.

Today is the last day of the assessment, and as for the results, they are very good.

Moreover, Yang Shuang also passed the military body fist and the eight knives of breaking the blade to these eighteen little dolls, even if he can't become a fierce general in the future, he can lay the foundation and live a healthy life.

"Boom ······"

Heavy rain drifted, lapping against the rammed earth wall that had been reinforced, and flowed into the moat beneath the wall.

The mist is hazy, and the houses are side by side.

On the opposite side, the three barracks cover an area of 100 acres, archers, crossbowmen, pikemen, sword and shield soldiers, sometimes combined together, sometimes separate and independent battles, showing the demeanor of men in the heavy rain.

Five hundred!

This is the maximum upper limit of Guan Cheng's command.

"Big brother, the heavy rain is blocking the way, and our caravan is estimated to be two days late for departure!"

After two months of getting along, Yang Shuang found that Ma Lao Er was very sincere, of course, knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, this time the caravan went south to sell salt, which is the final test for it, if he can return as promised, maybe he can be a logistics manager in the future.

"Don't worry, the rain stops and you will leave."

"Brother Xie is considerate!"

"My own people, what's polite, by the way, three hundred guards, isn't it a bit less?"

"Not a lot! Just 300 catties of fine salt, if you encounter an accident, you can run away on your back and hide in the mountains, whether it is an officer or an officer, or a thief, how can you catch us! ”

"Well, that's good!" Yang Shuang nodded.

These three hundred people do not belong to the system, nor do they fuse the battle spirit, so they cannot bless their skills. At its core, they are formally trained horse thieves.

The combat power is a bit weak for the sword and shield soldiers, but against the upper soldiers, it should be able to be easily crushed.

"Boom ······"

Lightning intertwined, thunder was deafening, and the rain was even more majestic.

Shi Da lay under the eaves of the city gate building and slept very sweetly.

Niu Er and Lao Wu and a few wrestlers who operated the city gate gate were wrestling, fighting in short suits, punching to the flesh, beating and banging.

"Big brother!"

The three babies hurriedly climbed up the city wall with a thick package in their arms.

"Niang Xipi, she is so old, and she is still panicking with a child all day long!" Yang Shuang slapped the back of his head with a slap, which felt a bit addictive.

"Big brother, big brother Wu, let's go!"

"Let's go? Where to? On a rainy day, the work outside has stopped, isn't he worried about the horse farm by the Styx River? Rest assured, if the Turks dare to come, more than 500 war horses will soon be able to run back, and the Turkic cavalry will not be able to catch up if they want to! ”

"No, big brother, big brother Wu has already left our Yumen Pass!"

"What?" Yang Shuang was stunned for a moment, took the horse leather package from the hands of the three children, and opened it to see that it was all parchment.

Map!

No, there is also the military deployment in the north of the Great Sui!

Dunhuang County, Yongxing County, Yumen County, Zhangye County, Weiwu County, Liangzhou·····

Wuyuan County, Yulin County, Lingwu County, Shuofang County, Yanmen Pass, Shanggu County······

Even, there is Youzhou!

"Hiss·····"

What made Yang Shuang gasp was not because of these detailed maps of the village, but because of the final payment.

Changsun Sheng!

The eldest grandson is innocent, and the eldest grandson is innocent!

Could this be Wu Kun's true identity?!!

Ma Dan, who has been together for so long, should have doubted it a long time ago, but he never thought that he was the first wise man in the Great Sui.

"Someone! Come! Prepare the horse!! ”

Pursue!

Gotta chase back!

Even if it is to grab, tie up, and tie up, you have to get him by your side.

What Yang Su, what Gao Ying, what Fang Xuanling, Du Rumei, Xu Maogong, in Yang Shuang's eyes, compared with Changsun Sheng, a diplomat of the Great Sui, there is really a difference of 108,000 miles!

He is a Confucian general who can only be a Turk and a Confucian general who can bend a bow and shoot an eagle!

And, he is also the protagonist of the allusion of killing two birds with one stone.

Yang Shuang was very excited.

Uncle, this thing is really hidden!

"What about horses? Where's my warhorse? Hurry up, Lao Tzu is going to enter the customs! ”

"Big brother, it's not good, your donkey has been stolen!"
