Zhao Ziliang took Zheng San to gallop along Qingshui Lake for more than ten miles before he saw a black spot appear on the opposite side, and after a while, he saw a knight galloping over, and when he got closer, he saw that this person was a soldier under the second Shishi chief, Zhao Ziliang immediately grabbed the reins and let the war horse gradually stop.

The soldiers who rode over on the opposite side saw that it was Zhao Ziliang and the two, and they quickly stopped their horses, and reported with their hands: "Deputy castle master, I found a caravan twenty miles ahead, it should be from the direction of the Turgish, the number of the other party is as many as forty people, half of them are knights with swords and bows, after approaching the north shore of Qingshui Lake, the guards and cavalry of the caravan hid their weapons and bows and arrows, and everyone changed their clothes, and in a blink of an eye, they became merchants from Persia, Wang Shichang felt that there was something wrong with this caravan, But the other party is four times the number of us, so I didn't dare to act rashly, and let my subordinates come and report to the deputy castle lord first."

"You guys did a great job this time!" Zhao Ziliang first affirmed that the other party handled it properly, and then asked, "So they didn't find you?" ”

The soldier said, "No, otherwise they would not have changed their clothes and hid their weapons and bows and arrows in their cargo even if they found out about us."

Zhao Ziliang thought for a while, turned his head to Zheng San, and said, "San'er, you immediately rush back to pass on my order, and let Wei Meng bring his first Shi and Liu Ming's fourth Shi over to join us on the small hill five miles ahead!" ”

"Yes!" Zheng San Lema turned around and left quickly.

Zhao Ziliang and the soldiers who reported the news immediately rode their horses and galloped towards the location of Wang Can and others.

After only running a cup of tea, Zhao Ziliang and the others rushed to the hiding place of Wang Can and others - behind a hill.

When Wang Can saw Zhao Ziliang coming, he immediately stepped forward and saluted, "Brother Liang!" ”

Zhao Ziliang waved his hand to signal that he was not polite, and waved his hand and said, "How is the situation?" ”

Wang Can said: "At present, they are resting by the lake, and they should be about to leave!" ”

"Let's go, go over and have a look!"

Coming to the back of the hill, Zhao Ziliang and Wang Can climbed to the top of the hill, stretched out their heads to observe the situation by the lake, and saw a group of people and horses by the lake, these people were wearing the same clothes as the merchants of the Great Food Country, resting by the lake, some were roasting meat, some were boiling water, and some people were riding horses and wandering around.

About half an hour later, those people were full of food and drink and began to pack up their things and prepare to leave, Zhao Ziliang immediately said to Wang Can: "It seems that they are about to leave, let's go back fifteen miles, Wei Meng and Liu Ming have already waited there with two people, you leave two people to stare at this group of people, don't expose your body."

"Understood!"

Rushed to the meeting point with Wang Can and others, Zheng San, Wei Meng, Liu Ming and others were already waiting with more than 20 cavalry, and when they saw Zhao Ziliang galloping over on horseback, several people urged them to march forward and salute: "Brother Liang!" ”

Zhao Ziliang nodded and greeted: "Come, let's go over there and talk!" ”

Several people dismounted and came to a secluded place, Zhao Ziliang looked at a few people: "I went to observe just now, and according to what Wang Can and others saw, I found that the caravan was indeed very suspicious, there were a total of forty-two people on the other side, half of them had weapons and bows and arrows, but they now hid their weapons and bows and arrows in the goods, this group of people came from the direction of Broken Leaf Town, it should be the Turgish, but we don't know their purpose this time, we must wait for them to be detained before they are strictly interrogated!" If this happens, tell the soldiers not to be polite to them, as long as they show signs of movement, kill me fiercely! ”

The three of them immediately arched their hands and said, "Yes!" ”

Zhao Ziliang said again: "Now I deploy combat tactics, we will ambush here later, and when they get closer, Wei Meng will take the first Shi to block their front, Liu Ming will take the fourth Shi to block their retreat, Wang Can will take the second Shi to follow me, we will surround them on three sides and surround them by the lake, as long as they want to break through or resist, they will do it immediately, and in other situations, follow my orders, do you understand?" ”

"Understood!"

"Okay, let the soldiers hide, don't make a sound, if anyone stabs me at a critical time, I won't be able to spare him when I go back!"

"Yes!"

After waiting for about three moments, a group of small black spots appeared on the shore of Qingshui Lake, and the soldiers who were observing immediately reported: "Deputy Fort Master, the disguised caravan is here!" ”

Zhao Ziliang immediately said: "Notify me!" Hide it all for me, don't make a noise! ”

"Yes!"

This time, Zhao Ziliang personally climbed to the top of the hill to observe, and waited until the caravan reached between the hill and Qingshui Lake, Zhao Ziliang immediately made a gesture to Wei Meng and Liu Ming, and the two of them rushed out from both sides of the hill with their men and horses after seeing it.

The cavalry moved like the wind, but it could also cause a lot of noise, although there were only twenty-two horsemen, but the horses galloped past, and the dust flew up, and two puffs of smoke and dust rose into the sky.

The caravan that was walking along the lake suddenly panicked, and an old man who was walking in front on horseback was shocked when he saw this, but he quickly calmed down, and immediately raised his hand and shouted in Turkic: "Don't panic, don't panic, we are a caravan now, remember the purpose of our trip, don't act rashly, I'll deal with everything!" ”

Hearing the old man's words, the rest of the caravan gradually quieted down, but at this time, the caravan had been blocked by Wei Meng and Liu Ming leading the way and retreat respectively. On the side, Zhao Ziliang also led Wang Can and a group of men and horses to gallop over, and did not stop until the entire caravan was besieged.

Zhao Ziliangce immediately stepped forward and pointed at the caravan with a horse lance and shouted: "Who are you waiting for?" ”

The old man who led the caravan turned over and walked over to Zhao Ziliang and said with a smile: "This general, the villain is a merchant from the Great Food Country, and these people are the caravan attendants and guards of the villain!" The villain has been going back and forth from Persia to Tang many times, and he also asked the general to do something, which is a little meaning, and asked the general to smile" After speaking, he presented a money bag with both hands.

Zhao Ziliang didn't pick it up, but said coldly: "How many times have you traveled back and forth between Persia and the Tang Dynasty?" General Ben has been in this Tuoyun Fort for three or four years, why has he never seen you before? Do you take General Ben's for a fool? Now all of you come forward, squatting on the ground with your hands in your hands, I'm going to inspect your cargo, hurry! ”

When the old man saw that Zhao Ziliang was going to inspect the goods, his face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly said: "Don't don't, this general, the little old man has really traveled back and forth between the Tang Dynasty and Persia many times, and he is still an old acquaintance with General Fumeng, the town guard envoy of Shule Town!" ”

As he spoke, the old man took out a slightly larger money bag and put it in the palm of his hand and said, "Please also ask the general to make it convenient, and the little old man will definitely say a few good words for the general in front of General Fumeng."

Zhao Ziliang looked at the old man, stared at it for a long time, picked up the two money bags with a horse lance and threw them up, reached out to catch them and opened them one by one, and said with a smile: "Ho, there are a lot of them!" ”

The old man hurriedly smiled and said: "It's a little meaning, it's not a tribute, buy some wine for the general and the military masters."

"It's a lot of money, but!" Zhao Ziliang suddenly turned his face when he said this: "The inspection still has to be checked, if there is no problem, I will naturally let you go!" You all come and squat on the ground with your heads in your hands, let's check, hurry".

The old man and the others in the caravan didn't dare to move, most of the cavalry on Zhao Ziliang's side aimed at them with bows and arrows in their hands, as long as they dared to move, the arrows on this side were fired together, and they would definitely be shot, the distance between the two sides was too close, and they couldn't dodge if they wanted to.
