Chapter 122: Peace and Victory
Battle and the other nomads pulled out the camp early in the morning and packed their luggage, and when Sun finished the meeting, they "went back to their parents' house" together. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Liddell asked Kikige to recognize the baby as her sister on the radio, and the whole Ironwood camp and all the nomads knew about it.
After the battle and the spoils of war, Yang Ritian deliberately gave the nomads a lot more, and half-jokingly said that this was the lord's dowry.
Qiqige didn't come back last night, and lived in Changsheng Fort with Liddell, so today is in line with the tradition of the new son-in-law of the Han people "returning to the door".
The stuffy will not ride a horse, and today he is escorted by several border soldiers.
Liddle and Kikig rode on the same white horse, still with Kikig stepping on the stirrups to manipulate the reins, and Riddle dangling a plaster leg straddling Kikige.
Kikige pouted, looking unhappy.
Lidel sighed and muttered, he is now a waste, he can't go to the sky, he can't get into the water, he can't walk, and he has to look at other people's faces when he rides a horse.
Battle thinks she's the new daughter-in-law and loses her temper and pretends not to see it.
A man with unkempt hands tied to the tail of a horse, Kikige was annoyed by Lidel's nagging, and urged the horse to catch up with this man in two steps, and the man howled in pain, it was the bandit's two poles.
Liddle immediately shut up.
The group went upstream along the Shennong River, crossed the Qianmuzi River, and crossed several small rivers in succession, the terrain on the north bank of the Shennong River gradually rose, and the original continuous reeds gradually disappeared. However, the terrain on the south bank of the Shennong River gradually flattened, and Battle increased the speed of his horse, leaving the baggage far behind.
Sun Yi rode on the horse and peeked at Qiqige, who was controlling the horse, and found that the little girl's anger in the morning had not disappeared at all. The girl on the grassland has a violent temper, Sun Yi sighed, blaming herself for being inferior to the beast last night, and she will suffer it in the future.
It was almost noon, and a simple pier appeared on the north shore, which was very similar to Changsheng Pier, which was also built with reeds and made an arch out of reeds.
Battle introduced to Sun Yi that this pier was only built in the past few days and was named "Hesheng Pier". The large plot of land behind the pier is called "Wakatsu", which is the nomadic land of the Battelle group. "Hesheng" means "highland" in Mongolian, and the meaning in Chinese echoes "Changsheng" downstream.
A fast horse had already returned early to report the news, and as soon as Battle whistled, a dozen men and women dressed as nomads appeared on the wharf of Wakatsu, and several rafts immediately crossed the river to greet them.
Before Sun Yi's raft landed, the nomadic men and women on the dock sang a song to welcome the guests, and an elderly man waited at the dock with mare's milk wine.
A banquet was laid on the grass behind the wharf, and after the two sides had saluted, the elders, Sun Yi, Batel, and Qiqige sat on the ground.
The elder's name was Mozhigen, and he seemed to be the leader of a group of nomads. The old man introduced the process of their escape here a few years ago in the northern Jin dialect, and Sun Yi realized that Qiqige was also an orphan.
Five years ago, when Altankin and the Chahar Tatars were at war, Kikig was only seven years old. Kikige's father was killed in battle, his mother was captured by Chahar, and his only brother surrendered to Chahar. Mo Rigen is the companion of Qiqige's father who grew up together, leading more than 100 Dingkou to hide in the wolf mountains and rivers, not to mention the hardships, the number of cattle and sheep has just improved this year, and it coincides with the bandits and the grassland to fight again.
Mo Zhigen sighed and drank the mare's milk wine in one gulp, "It seems that the good days of the Altankin Kingdom will never come back. ”
Kikige silently filled it for the old man Mozhigen.
Mo Rigen said: "Kikige married Lidel, and we will be in-laws from now on." Battle and they want to join your tribe, and I have told me all the truth, and I agree with it. Why haven't you agreed? ”
Sun Yi hurriedly explained: "It's not that I don't agree, it's that I want to hold a meeting to vote." Two families are combined into one, which is not as good as marrying a daughter-in-law. Marrying a daughter-in-law is very simple, and the new daughter-in-law has to follow the customs of her in-laws. The two partnerships, with different rules of life, will inevitably cause disputes. If the rules are too bad and you are a partner, it is better to be a family member from the beginning than to turn against each other in the future. ”
Mo Rigen glanced at Sun Yi deeply, "Everyone else is Bawang, the more Dingkou of their own tribe, the better, Lidel doesn't seem to think so." ”
Sun Yi also drank all the wine in one gulp, "Of course, it is good to have a large number of people, but it is necessary for all the people to live a good life." ”
Qiqige poured Sun Yi a full wine.
Sun Yi casually flicked Kikige's pigtails.
Kikige turned her head angrily - she was still angry with Sun Yi.
Mo Rigen saw it in his eyes, but asked in his mouth: "What are the rules of the Lidel tribe?" ”
Sun Yi looked up to the sky and thought about it, stopped talking several times, and finally replied: "If you want me to say, in the final analysis, there are only two. First, everyone has the right to live. Second, everyone has the right to escape. ”
Mo Rigen was silent for a while, "If these two can't be done for a while, but we promise to change them slowly, okay?" ”
Sun Yi took a sip of wine and replied, "Okay!" ”
The old man smiled comfortably, "So Lidel accepted us?" ”
Sun nodded a little and shook his head again, "I don't count what I said, I won't participate in the vote when the time comes." Five CEOs, four production captains, one person, one vote, as long as there are more people in favor, you can become the fifth production team. ”
Puzzled, Mozhigen asked, "Why didn't Lidel participate?" ”
Sun Yi replied: "We are relatives, and I want to avoid it." ”
Mo Zhigen asked a little nervously, "Then when will this vote start?" ”
Sun Yiyi: "As long as you are ready." When the time comes, you will go to a few people, and they will probably have some questions to ask before the vote. ”
Mo Rigen nodded thoughtfully, then raised his head and asked, "Can we send a few people who can speak well in advance?" ”
Sun Yi smiled, it seems that the old man wants to start lobbying in advance.
"No problem." , Sun Yi replied and took the initiative to reveal the information, "Half of the five bosses and four captains are now in Changsheng, and half are in the woods, you can even go to find them separately." ”
Mo Rigen was stunned for a moment, "Lidel is not afraid that we will bribe these people?" ”
Sun Yi shook his head, "Don't be afraid." They vote on their own future, and they won't change their minds because of bribes, but you can get to know each other better. ”
Mozhigen turned his head and said a list of Mongol names to Battle, "Battle, you and these people will go down today, and I will go down in two days." ”
Battle didn't shy away from Sun Yi at all and asked directly, "Uncle Morrigan, aren't you not very in favor of joining the Ironwood Battalion?" Why did you change your mind? ”
Mo Rigen replied: "I decided to join the Tiemu Camp in the past because I had to find a backer, and I was naturally uncomfortable. Now I know that Lidel is really for the people of the Ironwood tribe to live a good life, so I must join! ”
Then Mo Rigen glared at Qiqige fiercely, "The daughter-in-law who married in the past must listen to her husband!" Even if the husband whips him, he must bear it! ”
Kikige's eyes turned red, "He might as well whip me with a horsewhip!" ”
