Chapter 4 The Remnants of the Tang Dynasty

Suddenly, a howl came, Yun Mo and the local tyrant both pulled their ears and listened carefully, it was indeed a human cry, coming from the downstream of the stream.

Finally met someone, but Yun Mo wasn't sure who he had met, so he didn't dare to greet him rashly, but took the bow and crossbow that had been wound and searched along the thatch of the stream.

Yun Mo finally saw a group of people, three brown-haired barbarian horse thieves, carrying a riding bow, a long knife at their waist, and a long horse whip in their hands, driving away more than a dozen ragged Han women.

These dozen Han girls cried all day long, which made several horse thieves even more excited, and they laughed lewdly and drove away the frightened dozen Han girls who were not clothed.

The "popping" whip made more than a dozen Han girls cry and shook the sky. Although Yun Mo is a poor sling in modern times, he is a typical Han nationalist, these barbarians, so insulting their fellow sisters, An Neng spared them.

Yun Mo, who was lying on the grass not far away, saw a scene that made all the Han people feel painful, and waited for these horse thieves to come a hundred meters away from Yun Mo.

Yun Mo couldn't help it, he quickly took out seven or eight crossbow arrows from his arrow pocket and stuck them on the ground, and then used the bow and crossbow in his hand to aim at a barbarian horse thief who was the farthest away.

A modern bow and crossbow with a scope can be used to shoot anywhere within two hundred meters, not to mention that these barbarian horse thieves are only more than a hundred meters away from Yun Mo at this time.

A "buzzing" bowstring sounded, followed by a "poof", and a short crossbow arrow drilled into the neck of the barbarian horse thief, but the power of the short crossbow arrow was not consumed, but flew out with a piece of flesh on the barbarian horse thief's neck.

Blood gushed out of the brute thief's neck, and the brute threw away his whip in disbelief, reaching out to cover his blood-spurting neck...... "poof", and his body fell under the horse.

When the two remaining horse thieves heard the sound of the bowstring, they knew that an archer was attacking them nearby, and the first reaction of the two remaining barbarian horse thieves was to reach for the riding bow on their backs.

Before the two barbarian horse thieves could take off their riding bows from their backs, a "buzz" and a "poof" sound sounded at the same time, and the eyes of one of the barbarian horse thieves suddenly exploded, and a short crossbow arrow flew out of the back of the barbarian horse thief's head.

The only remaining barbarian horse thief was afraid, such a powerful bow and arrow, such accurate archery, that is definitely the legendary "Condor Shooter", just by virtue of his riding bow with only five or six buckets of pulling power? It will not be an opponent for the Condor Shooters who hide in the shadows. (One bucket = 12.7 catties)

The only remaining barbarian horse thief threw down the riding bow in his hand in a panic, raised his hands, and kept shouting in a pleading voice to the place where Yun Mo was hiding:

"Kiliwala...... Kiliwala ......",

Although Yun Mo couldn't understand what the other party said, he could guess from the horse thief's actions that this barbarian horse thief most likely wanted to surrender, but Yun Mo, who was alone, would never dare to accept the surrender of this barbarian horse thief rashly.

With a "poof", a crossbow arrow sent the barbarian horse thief to hell without hesitation, and his body fell from his horse with a pop, and the war horse under his crotch wandered leisurely.

The dozen or so unclothed Han women gathered together in horror, and they didn't dare to look at the bloody murder scene at all.

Yun Mo stood up from the grass, and at the same time had the head of a small white horse. The dozen or so Han women looked at Yun Mo, a strangely dressed Han man, at a loss.

"Ladies and gentlemen, may I ask what kind of place and what era name is this?"

"It's Han Chinese...... Woo woo woo ......", more than a dozen unclothed Han women immediately burst into tears after hearing Yun Mo's Chinese.

Yun Mo was very helpless, so he could only wait for a dozen unclothed Han family women to cry a little before continuing to ask:

"Ladies and gentlemen, may I ask what kind of place and what era name is this?"

A slightly more daring girl stepped out of the crowd, and she first generously gave Yun Mo a blessing, and then said:

"Thank you for the hero's life-saving grace, this is Gaochang, we don't have an era name here, I heard that the Han land is now the world of the Great Song Dynasty, it seems to be called Xuanhe four years.

We are all the remnants of the four towns of Anxi in the Tang Dynasty, since the death of the Tang Dynasty, we have lost contact with the Central Plains, our ancestors have worked hard in the four towns of Anxi for more than 100 years, and the entire four towns of Anxi have all fallen into the hands of foreign races.

Hundreds of thousands of Han people in the Western Regions have become slaves of aliens, or have fled into the mountains to become savages, begging heroes to save us suffering Tang relics. ”

More than a dozen unclothed Han women cried and knelt in front of Yun Mo, begging Yun Mo to save their compatriots and sisters, Yun Mo, a Han nationalist, really had no way to refuse.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please hurry up, how can my Han people become barbarian slaves, it is my Yun Mo's unshirkable responsibility to help you, but I am lonely, and please tell me about your situation, so that I can know where to start."

The tall girl in the lead looked at Yun Mo shyly and said:

"Brother Yun Mo, the little woman's name is Zhang Ying, and she is their leader, let the little girl explain it to you!"

Yun Mo didn't hear the difference between them and them, he thought that Chen Ying was the leader of these dozen Han women!

"The ancestor of the little girl is called Zhang Chaoyi, the Tang Dynasty lost the entire territory of the Western Regions because of the chaos of Anshi, and Tubo is not a Han person at all, but arbitrarily humiliated or killed.

The ancestors then gathered a crowd to revolt, and recovered half of the Western Regions in one fell swoop, and the Tang Emperor let Zhang's Yongzhen Western Regions, and when the Tang Dynasty perished, the Uighurs came, the Western Xia people also came, and the Tubo people came again.

The Western Regions has become a place of four wars, although my Zhang family has tried their best to fight to the death for more than 100 years, and the descendants of the Zhang family have suffered countless casualties, but they still can't hold half of the Western Regions.

Just over a decade ago, my father could only take the remaining 1,000 or so tribesmen to hide in the grape ditch of this flaming mountain, and the Uighurs, Tibetans, Tanguts, and horse thieves came to fight the grass valley every once in a while.

The year before last, my father was really unbearable to be plundered, so he led the people to resist, and as a result, my father was killed in battle, and my people were killed to only about 100 people, most of whom were old and weak, women and children.

Even if it is just three horse thieves, they can take us away, beg Brother Li to save me and other Han family people, the little woman is willing to give up the position of leader......"

It turns out that this girl still has such a background, and there are more than a hundred mouths waiting to eat behind him, is Yun Mo afraid? He was originally from a mountain village, and there were several hybrid seeds in his backpack, and farming was a piece of cake for him!

As soon as Zhang Ying cried, the rest of the women also cried and kowtowed to Yun Mo, maybe they thought that Yun Mo's words just now were a euphemism, maybe they saw that Yun Mo was a "condor shooter", so they wanted to keep Yun Mo.

At this time, it is impossible for Yun Mo to return to Han even if he wants to, the Hexi Corridor has been divided between Tubo and Western Xia, and the road from the Western Regions to Han Land has been completely cut off.

Yun Mo couldn't see a woman crying the most, so in order to prevent Zhang Ying from continuing to cry, he had to say again and again:

"Miss Zhang, please rest assured, I will go back with you, if anyone wants to bully you in the future, I will cut off his head and kick it as a ball, I promise."

Yun Mo, a modern person, spoke so tactfully as the ancients, Zhang Ying said that he wanted to give up the position of leader, and he did not refuse, in Zhang Ying's opinion, if he did not refuse, he agreed.

"Meet the Chief......"

Yun Mo opened his mouth and looked at the dozen or so women of the Yihan family kneeling in front of him in surprise, he really didn't know what to say.

This is the leader, or the leader of more than 100 old and weak women and children, who must take care of their food and drink, and ensure their safety. In this Western Regions, where officials and bandits are rampant, there is no legal system, there is no order, and the strong are respected, it is not an easy task. This leader is not easy to be!

Yun Mo hurriedly helped Zhang Ying up, more than a dozen women looked at Yun Mo in surprise, and two blushes suddenly appeared on Zhang Ying's emaciated face.

All right! Yun Mo forgot that in ancient times, men and women could not kiss each other, so he could only rub his hands awkwardly and mutter:

"Miss Zhang, I'll go collect the three war horses, and you dispose of the corpses of several horse thieves, so as not to let their accomplices find out."

Yun Mo didn't wait for Zhang Ying to answer, he flew and ran to collect the three war horses, the local tyrant was no longer lame, it also snorted, and ran with Yun Mo "fluttering".

The three horses of the horse thief look very good, with a shoulder height of between 1.4 and 1.5 meters, which should belong to the Ili horse, and they are very good war horses.

Yun Mo is not very good at riding war horses, and the transportation in the mountains is generally solved by pulling horses, of course Yun Mo, a mountain baby, can ride horses, but he can only ride a more docile horse.

After Yun Mo grabbed a jujube red war horse first, this fierce war horse, Yun Mo could only barely control it to chase the other two war horses that ran away.

By the time Yun Mo had put the three horses away, it was already an hour later, and Zhang Ying and the others had already buried the bodies of the three horse thieves, and the horse thieves' weapons and bows and arrows were also in their hands.

These three horses are all Yun Mo's trophies, and they are also Yun Mo's property, in the Western Regions, as long as you have the ability to grab it, it will be yours, but Yun Mo does not plan to keep them all.

He chose the jujube red horse he had just ridden and tied its reins to the tail of the local tyrant, causing the local tyrant to "neigh" for a while, but of course its protest was ineffective.

"Miss Zhang, when you meet for the first time, these two horses will be given to you as a meeting gift!"

[The bow force of a bow is calculated by fixing a bow on the wall, and then hanging a weight on the bowstring, and when the bow is completely pulled away, the weight of the weight of the weight hanging by the bowstring is the bow force of the bow.

The bow pull of the Song Dynasty has eight levels, five buckets to twelve buckets of bows, one Song Jin is 1.266 city catties, one bucket is equal to 12.7 catties, 10 buckets of one stone, the most powerful bow 12 buckets of bows is 151 city catties = 76 kilograms of pull, elite soldiers can pull a bow of sixty to seventy catties, that is, five or six buckets of bows. 】
