Chapter 253: These Horses Are Good
The thunderous sound of horses' hooves soon sounded again, and a group of cavalrymen in blue armor reappeared in view, this time, at least a dozen people.
Only then did Bagen understand Zhiwen and Xue Ping's hard work, and completely gave up the plan to attack the two people in front of him.
The two who were watching the horses turned around and greeted excitedly.
The first person was supposed to be a small leader, and before he arrived, he immediately asked the two men who were watching the horses.
The two sides converged, and the two sides whispered Jurchen language that Zhiwen couldn't understand.
"The two men praised our horses for being good, but the little leader who came later didn't believe them, saying that the Mongols liked to mix bad horses with good horses the most, and asked others to see more." Xue Ping translated in a low voice beside Zhiwen.
Sure enough, the bannermen quickly scattered and followed the horses one by one.
"These golden people don't have good intentions, Brother Zhi." Liu Cai also doesn't understand Jurchen language, but from the behavior of these people, he can also see that something is not good.
At this time, everyone noticed that the dust in the southwest direction was even greater, and in the blurred vision, the shadows were the cavalry, infantry, and many vehicles of the brigade, and the sound of horses' hooves, footsteps, and wheels rolling rumbled, and the sound was terrifying, obviously the main force of the Jin people's brigade had arrived.
Xue Ping said with a wry smile, "Now I'm afraid we're fish on the board - let someone slaughter it, and someone else will come again." ”
Zhiwen quietly grabbed a handful of gravel and soil chips from the ground, and asked with some confusion, "Where did these golden people come from?" Another war? ”
Xue Ping shook his head ignorantly, he was a horse thief in the Mongolian steppe, where did he know about these military affairs.
Nan Nan reminded in a whisper on the side, "When I was in Zhangjiakou, didn't Brother Sicha say that the Jin people still have some soldiers in the pass, could it be that they have returned to Liaodong?" ”
Zhiwen looked at the route of this team of military horses, it should indeed come from the direction of Guannei, and nodded, "It should be right, Nannan, I owe you a good memory." ”
It's just that there are many strange things about this group of soldiers, and they don't feel anything when there are few people, such as the team of sentry agents who are inspecting the horses, and Zhiwen and they don't notice anything abnormal.
But this number is too large, the abnormality is too obvious, to put it simply, from the morale of their lineup, it is impossible to tell whether they have won or lost.
The armor is often damaged, and many people still have fireworks marks on their faces, but this doesn't mean anything, because whether you win or lose, you will inevitably be damaged.
The formation was messy, most of the people just bowed their heads and hurried, and the morale was not high.
Looking at this, it seems that a battle has been lost.
But these people not only carried large bags and small bags on their backs, but also their own mounts, which was also full of all kinds of packages, which is why although they had many horses, most of them walked.
If you lose the battle, it would be good to be able to escape with one life, where can there be such a big gain?
The team has not yet reached Zhiwen and they are near, and the sentry horsemen who check the horses are still busy, but the leader has stopped, and even looked at a few horses, he found that they are very good, and the other subordinates have not found bad horses, it seems that these Mongols are not cheaters.
"These horses are good." The team officer came to Xue Ping and said in Mongolian language, Zhiwen's position at this time was faintly headed by Xue Ping.
"We requisitioned!" That breath is as if you have requisitioned your horse, and it is your supreme glory.
After that, he turned to his men who were still watching the horses and said, "Okay, don't look any further, it's not too close, gather all these horses together and drive them over, the flag is still waiting to be used." ”
Horse recruitment? As expected, it was really not good-hearted.
Xue Ping was shocked and hurriedly said, "This Zhang Jing, we are the subordinates of Horqin Tushetu Khan, these horses are to be used to exchange money and grain, if they are requisitioned by you like this, we will not be able to pay the difference when we go back." ”
"Korqin Tushetu Khan?" The team officer's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and the two forwards just now only said that these horse dealers were from Korqin, not that they were subordinates of Tushetu Khan.
However, he immediately raised his eyebrows, "Tushetu Khan has a lot of money, these hundreds of horses must not care, you go back and tell him that the horses were requisitioned by Dajin and Shuo Erbeile and Lord Amin, the owner of the Blue Banner, and he will definitely not blame you." ”
With that, he turned and struck his horse, and headed towards the herd.
When this officer learned that Zhiwen was from Horqin, Mongolia, and was a subordinate of Tushetu Khan, he originally did not want to forcibly conquer the horses again, so as not to spoil the harmony between the two sides.
However, during this trip to Guannai, they lost a lot of horses with blue flags, and even the speed of the march was affected.
In his opinion, he has reported the name of Lord Belle, which can be regarded as giving the other party steps and face, and I believe that these Mongolian people dare not make mistakes.
Even if the matter is big, Natu Shetu Khan will not turn his face against Belle Ye for the sake of a few herdsmen and hundreds of horses.
This time, not only Bagen was furious, but the others were a little unbearable, forcibly requisitioning their horses, these Jin people are completely robbers, the principle of the Mongols has always been "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth", the other party is unreasonable, and Bagen Menggen and others do not intend to be polite.
For a while, several Mongolians were tense, and the three of them, especially Xiaoying, were also eager to try, as long as Zhiwen gave an order, they would do it.
Only Xue Pingliu and the four of them could barely hold their breath, but their faces were also gloomy, and their eyes stared coldly at the back of the flag man officer, they had always robbed people, but this time they were robbed.
Zhiwen grabbed Bagen, who was about to run away, and said to the others, "Don't mess around, I have my own way." ”
Not to mention anything else, it is not easy to deal with these banner people and sentinels in front of them, not to mention the large group of people who follow them, the end of resisting on the spot is to be ruthlessly suppressed by these Houjin soldiers, these people present are good if they can escape with their lives, followed by an endless escape, Zhiwen's trip to Liaodong will come in vain, and the mountains of food of Fan and others in front of him will be missed.
"Hold your breath and act when the opportunity comes." Zhiwen whispered to everyone again, and tightened the handful of gravel that he had just grabbed from the ground in his hand.
Even Zhiwen himself can't swallow this breath, how can he be willing to give away this large group of good horses, although the food in exchange for these horses is not worth mentioning in his eyes now, but if you are unreasonable, then Zhiwen will naturally not let these golden people fall in vain.
Besides, if he was so cowardly, and let the Jin people take the horse away without the slightest resistance, then Zhiwen would not only have a big drop in the hearts of the Mongolian brothers like Bagen Menggen, but even Xue Pingliucai and the four of them would look down on him, and this person's heart would be scattered, and it would be difficult to take the team in the future.
It's just a matter of resisting, but it doesn't necessarily have to be knife-to-knife and arrow-to-arrow with these bannermen, and finding a way to get some eye medicine to make the situation get out of control and then chaos, which is a more feasible way at the moment.
Only when there is chaos can there be a chance, and if you can take the opportunity to vent, you can take advantage of the chaos to escape, and you will not be as passive as if you directly resisted.
