Chapter 48: The Ignorant Are Fearless
If it weren't for Uncle Wu's action, these captured horses would really be difficult to take away.
Bai Gui's caravan brought Soma's masters, and there were several. Unfortunately! In the battle that connected twice, two died! The rest of them are only able to take horses, and they don't know much about horse training and horse management.
Nearly 300 horses were captured, and many other trophies were also wagons. Now the situation is! The caravan was severely understaffed, and the team members had to take care of the wounded.
Right now! Nearly sixty other people in the caravan were wounded to varying degrees. There were more than 20 seriously injured, more than a dozen were able to take care of themselves, and the others were lightly injured.
But! The rest of these people are not only good at martial arts, but also more united than before.
Especially those people that Xue Lian temporarily invited in Yinshan Town, they have experienced two life and death tests, and they have seen Bai Gui's decisiveness and courage in killing, and they have become more loyal to Xue Lian and Bai Gui. Since he defected and couldn't escape, he could only rely on the caravan. Loyalty equals unity, and these people are not only more respectful in language, but also much more diligent in their actions.
In view of the situation of the caravan, Uncle Wu was very anxious, so he told Xue Lian his thoughts.
Xuelian wanted to wait for Bai Guanren to wake up and discuss it together, she felt sorry for Bai Guanren and didn't want to wake him up.
But Uncle Wu was in a hurry, and seeing that Xuelian didn't accept his suggestion, he ran to find middle-aged people such as uniclawed beasts and said his thoughts again.
The one-clawed beast and the others were not worried about Uncle Wu at the beginning, and they didn't want to deal with it. But thinking about what Uncle Wu said, it also makes sense, and several people came to Xuelian's side to discuss with her.
Seeing that the white officials had not woken up yet, Xue Lian left the tent and went to the caravan to discuss with everyone. After listening to everyone's unanimous opinion, she no longer waited for Bai Guanren to wake up, and made a decision on her own.
In the second half of the night, the caravan arrived at the predetermined location.
It's a small forest that is very secluded, so you can safely make a fire in it, cook or something. The terrain is also very dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is also convenient to retreat.
The caravan stopped outside the woods, and the unicorn and the others entered the woods with torches to check. OK! There were no robbers or anyone else living in it, only a few wolves. When the wolf saw the torch, he howled in fright and fled.
When they saw the howl of a wolf in the woods, they all laughed. Safe! Instructions are safe inside. If there were people, the wolf would not dare to go in. If the wolf goes first, it is equivalent to the wolf clearing the caravan.
Without waiting for the one-clawed beasts to return, the caravan entered the woods.
The one-clawed beast and the others took a turn in the woods, and they really admired Snow Lotus and Uncle Wu, and they would choose a place. The place is nice, not only easy to hold but also easy to retreat.
Bai Gui's body had already recovered, and after the carriage entered the woods and stopped, he got out of the carriage and went to check all over the woods. The one-clawed beast, the one-eyed beast, the unicorn and others, followed him.
It's really like that, it's safe here. This made him have to admire Snow Lotus and them, they all found such a good place. Visible! Snow Lotus's familiarity with the grassland.
"White officials! It's windy outside, so let's go back to the tent! Uncle Wu came over and reminded.
On the caravan's side, tents have been set up for Bai Gui and Snow Lotus. Now everyone still thinks that Bai Guanren's body has not recovered, and they all regard him as a "person who walks and supports the wall". So! His tent should be set up first. And also! He's the head.
"White officials! Let's go back! The one-clawed beast replied.
"Thank you! Uncle Wu! Bai Gui nodded towards Uncle Wu.
"Thank me for what? White officials! I am the one who should be thanked! I thank you! Thank you! Thank you Snow Lotus. ”
"Thank you for pointing out Snow Lotus and reminding me! Uncle Wu! Let's go back to the tent and talk! Bai Gui said, stretched out his hand and signaled, and took the lead to go back.
After entering the tent, Bai Gui ordered: "Prepare food and wine for me!" I'm going to drink with Uncle Wu! ”
"White officials!" Xue Lian was relieved to see that everything was back to normal with Bai Gui and Bai Guanren. Agreed, and quickly asked someone to prepare the food and drinks.
Bai Gui came to the chief in the middle of the tent, beckoned Uncle Wu and the others to sit down, and began to talk about serious things. He didn't need to worry about the safety of the caravan, and they had all arranged the uniclawed beasts.
Zhao Xile, a business doctor, did not come over, and was in another tent. In normal times, he is not involved in the management of caravans. He was a healer, and he only healed the sick. So! Most of the time, he thinks about his medicine.
"I agree with you, so I want to thank you!" Bai Gui said, and gestured to everyone present.
"Where? Where! White officials! And they all clasped their fists in return.
"Me? Hehehe! Bai Gui put his hand down and smiled embarrassedly: "I didn't think it through!" Ill-conceived! ”
Originally! He wanted to say, "Am I not?" I was too excited, so I was embarrassed. Just snapped with Snow Lotus and then paralyzed? Isn't it? Outcome! Not thought through?
But! He couldn't say that.
So! He hesitated for a moment, and then got to the point.
"I didn't expect it either! The consequences will be like this! Just continue to walk with the caravan in such a daze! It's my fault! Thank you, Uncle Wu! Thank you! Reminded Snow Lotus. Thank you all for reminding Snow Lotus! Thank you also Snow Lotus for making the right decision......"
After some polite words on the scene, Bai Gui began to self-examine.
It's true, he didn't think it through.
It was so sudden that it was unimaginable. In the circumstances, you can't do everything you can't do, and you're in that kind of situation where you lose sight of one or the other.
If he hadn't gone after the traitor himself, he would have lost five truckloads in vain. To know! The importance of those five truckloads of goods.
But if he doesn't chase him personally, he won't be at ease if he lets Xuelian and the others chase him. That's exactly what happened! In this vast grassland, except for the five sisters such as Snow Lotus, everyone else may get lost. So! Snow Lotus must chase. can let Xuelian chase after him, but he is not at ease. So! He took a fluke and went to chase the traitor with Xuelian. Outcome! Something happened on the caravan's side.
But! Then again! Even if they didn't chase the traitors and didn't want those five truckloads of goods, what would happen? Facts have proven that even if he doesn't chase the traitor, the Yiqu people will still come to retaliate.
Other words! The battle with the Yiqu people is inevitable. Even if he gives up chasing traitors and recovering goods, he will still encounter retaliation from the Yiqu people. Second! Even if the caravan does not continue to move forward, the Yiqu people will seek out their caravan on the steppe like mad dogs and retaliate.
In a word! There must be two or more battles with the Yiqu people.
And at that time! In that kind of emergency, Bai Gui, Xue Lian and the others didn't take these into account, they only knew to continue to run to the depths of the prairie and run towards their destination.
It's true! There was that fearless spirit of the ignorant!
