Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Legend of Undefeated - Brainwashing

Li Qiao is very proud today.

Captured a large Western Xia caravan.

He was not interested in the gold and silver that the caravan caravan carated for, but was pleased with the two hundred and forty-one camels and one hundred and eighty-four horses he had harvested.

As the defender of Lanzhou City, the gold and silver need to be sent to Jiaoguoluo, and the rest of the scattered goods, such as furs, salt, miscanthus salt, medicinal materials, silverware, and weapons can be given to his subordinates at will.

No one will be unhappy about leaving the livestock, and the lord has a hobby of collecting livestock, and the Qingtang soldiers in Lanzhou City are very clear.

Lanzhou is nothing but a small city.

Half a year ago, this city still belonged to Western Xia, and the border city of the Great Song Dynasty was only more than 100 miles away from Lanzhou.

Since Li Yuanhao's victory over the good water river, this place has been unclear about its belonging.

Lanzhou City is located in Jincheng County of the Great Song Dynasty, but it is not under the jurisdiction of the Great Song Dynasty.

The soldiers and horses of the Tangut people also came to Lanzhou from time to time, and since they fought a battle with Li Qiao in Lanzhou with 5,000 men, they basically stopped coming down.

The fierce Li Qiao left a deep impression on them, this man actually killed a seven-in-seven out in this city for the sake of a tattered Lanzhou City, which was so fierce that it made people feel very unreasonable.

The dilapidated three-mile city leaks wind everywhere, and the seven-mile Guo rammed by loess is a paradise for snakes, insects, rats and ants.

Because bandits are everywhere, merchants from the Western Regions rarely take this dangerous place, but enter the Great Song Dynasty from the relatively peaceful Great Song Huizhou, and then detour to Linzhou, go to Minzhou and finally arrive in Qinzhou.

Only some powerful caravans that were not afraid of robbers dared to go to the front line of Lanzhou City to avoid the heavy taxes imposed on the merchants by the Great Song Dynasty.

Now, there are very few caravans like this, because Li Qiao and his people have not discussed any caravan from any country, until the Yellow River Grand Canyon in Lanzhou has completely turned into a no-man's land.

Dolma is going to have a baby, and Li Qiao doesn't care very much, because several guys say that the child is his.

He himself found that the probability that the child was him did not seem to be very high.

If this was in the Song Kingdom, Zhuoma would be immediately put in a pig cage by the patriarch and thrown into the pond and drowned alive.

However, in Qingtang and Tubo, this is a normal thing, Jiaoguoluo's eldest son Blind Felt was born in the Zongge clan when Jiaoguoluo was competing with other tribes, and before that, Jiaoguoluo had not returned to Zongge's hometown for two years.

Even though Kakuro knew that Blind Felt was not his own son, he still accepted this son very happily, and allowed this son to have the inheritance of a part of his own territory, and the newly built Zongge City was Blind Yu's territory.

As long as he has the son of Blind Felt, the powerful clan of Zongge will follow him closely, fight for him, and provide him with food and weapons.

As long as there is help, Jiao Guluo doesn't mind recognizing a few more such sons, which is much easier than fighting and fighting......

Therefore, Zhuoma also helped Li Qiao in this way, and the biggest reason why he was able to bring out 5,000 cavalry was that Zhuoma had made a lot of efforts.

I just came back from Hengshan yesterday, and the fast horse galloped for four days, and so far, the bones in my whole body are still sore.

ran back and forth for 2,000 miles, and the only gain was to be whipped by the old lady.

It hurts to be pumped, but my heart is too comfortable, at least Shui Er and Huo Er still know how to apply medicine to their brother.

The iron egg's buttocks that were worn out by the saddle were not good, so he was chased away by Li Qiao, and when he left, he took away almost five hundred camels.

As for the war horse, it can't enter the territory of the Song people at all, and the Song people's government will see that the eyes of the war horse are red, and how much will be requisitioned by the government, and then give you some tattered silk cloth as compensation.

Camels, the Song people don't want it, this thing can not only be eaten, the taste is also very smoky, there are two bulges on the back, not to mention that it is not comfortable to ride slowly, only Hu people will like it, the camel riders who have entered the city of Tokyo and call Hanako are basically a treatment, and they are not allowed to enter the slightly better shops.

Thinking that the old lady and they were about to come to Jincheng County, Li Qiao was anxious, because until now, he didn't know where Brother Yuan was.

Huo'er and the few handwritten letters from Tie Xinyuan in their hands, he felt half cold in his heart when he saw it.

That's something that was written almost half a year ago, how can it be counted? If you go to a place called Hami in the Western Regions according to what the letter said, who would dare to make this decision before receiving the exact news from Tie Xinyuan?

The situation there in Yokoyama is too critical, and it will be a big trouble to stay for one more day, so you should really leave as soon as possible.

Standing at the head of Lanzhou City, looking at the roaring Yellow River, and then looking at the Grand Canyon full of barren grass, it is already the limit to accommodate 3,000 people here, how can you resettle another 5,000 displaced people?

After sighing a few times, Li Qiao still felt that he should ask Zhuoma for help, and through Zhuoma, he offered the exquisite glazed ware to the horned Luo, who was increasingly fond of luxury, and should be able to exchange for some food.

The pot-bellied Zhuoma was lying on a mat, and a Song woman was helping her pinch her already swollen legs.

Dolma vomited badly during pregnancy.

Other pregnant women have this problem in the first few months at most, but Dolma has been vomiting from the beginning to the present.

Seeing Zhuoma pressing a pitted calf, Li Qiao swallowed the words that came to his mouth again.

He took Dolma's swollen legs from his mother-in-law and kneaded them gently.

It's ridiculous to say, this woman doesn't seem to have much to say except for not abiding by women's morals.

"The baby in my womb is yours." Zhuoma began to say this in Li Qiao's ear again.

If you say too many lies, it will become the truth, this is a famous sentence that Tie Xinyuan told Li Qiao, and said that there is a method in this world that makes people believe lies called brainwashing.

That is, keep repeating a lie in front of you, not only the expression must be sincere, the performance must be in place, and the most important thing is that you must first believe the lie in order to deceive others.

Dolma is doing very well now, her tone is very sincere, the expression on her face is also with maternal tenderness, and most importantly, she seems to be very happy, and even began to sew children's clothes crookedly.

"The baby in the womb is really yours, I know!"

"If you like it......"

Seeing Li Qiao's faint expression, Zhuoma knew that he didn't believe it, and sighed: "Why do you Song people care so much about those unimportant things? When you meet a woman who likes you and wants to have a good time, I will not say a word, my man is liked by many women, I will only be proud and happy.

You Song people are not like this.

The emperor of the Song Kingdom is like this, the man named Meng Yuanzhi is also like this, and now, you are also like this.

However, this child is really yours, do you remember the incident when we hid in our sleeping bags on that night with a big moon? ”

Li Qiao sighed and said: "We go on like this, like more friends than husband and wife, I remember the way you threatened your father with a knife across your neck in order to save me, and I also remember the way you sucked the pus and blood from my wounds, and even remembered the way you sang beside me."

I don't remember you being my wife. ”

"Brother Qiao, this kid is really yours!"

Li Qiao smiled: "Of course I will recognize this child, he is my first child, just like a blind felt to the leader." ”

Dolma's face was a little pale, and he muttered, "This is really your child, I remember it very well." ”

Li Qiao touched Zhuoma's pale face and smiled: "Don't talk about this, I went out for a few days and got you some beautiful glass, this is a rare treasure." ”

When Li Qiao said this, he took out two glass balls from his arms that looked dazzling in the sunlight and put them in front of Zhuoma.

The sunset shines into the house, the glass ball looks more dazzling, and the most wonderful thing is that there is a small lotus flower in the glass ball, which is vivid.

"Brother Qiao, didn't you say that in a few days, the mother of the cunning fox would come over? Is there enough food and grass? If it wasn't enough, I took the three glass balls to my father and asked him to give us a little more food. ”

Li Qiao's eyes were slightly red, and he shook his head and said: "The blind felt is near Linzhou, they just came from the border of the Song Kingdom, there should be food, just ask him for a little change."

I wanted you to help me find your father's, but I can't go anywhere depending on how you are now. ”

These three glass balls are for you, and I still have the glass balls for food. ”

Zhuoma smiled, nodded and said: "I am indeed inconvenient to walk, you look for the blind felt is the same, he and Khan have endless disputes, at this time the most need is arm help, as long as you show a little kindness, he should exchange the food for you." ”

Li Qiao shook his head and smiled: "We are just exchanging, even if we suffer some losses, we have to exchange, at this time it is not a good idea to choose a side between him and Khan." ”

"But Blind Felt is already the most powerful of my father's six sons, who will he choose if you don't choose him?"

Li Qiao said with a smile: "Who to choose depends on your father's meaning, not who is stronger, now we are in Qingtang, the most powerful is still your father, and ten blind felts are not as good as your father." ”

Hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the house, Li Qiao and Zhuoma looked over together, only to see Li Qiao's personal soldier Li Yong running over in a hurry, it seemed that something urgent had happened.

Li Qiaohuo got up and wrapped the sarong around Zhuoma so that she would not be bitten by mosquitoes, so he gently closed the door and walked over to meet Li Yong.

"General, the blind felt is here, and there is a one-armed man from the Western Regions with him!"

Without waiting for Li Qiao to come forward to greet him, the blind felt wrapped in a thick leather coat walked in from outside the gate laughing.

When he saw Li Qiao, he shouted: "Li Qiao, my brother, is Zhuoma okay?" Did she give birth to a baby harrier eagle for you? (To be continued.) )
