……

"Your Majesty, if you get out of this Shanhaiguan, it is the boundary of Liaodong."

The horse stepped brightly, and Qin Yun's horsewhip pointed to the endless wasteland on both sides of the pipe. After his horse fell, Zhao Zhe was half a horse's head, and constantly introduced some customs and landforms of Liaodong to Zhao Zhe. Liaodong is a place rich in natural resources, with mountains and rivers, sea and forests. But more than that, it makes people feel the roughness of this place. Qin Yun back then, as well as several imperial guards, were soldiers on the border of eastern Liaodong.

Although Liaodong is a charming place full of ruggedness and grace, it is also one of the most chaotic provinces of the Great Zhao Empire. Ringing horses are the biggest feature of Liaodong. The troops that make up Xiangma are not only the natives of Liaodong, but also from Tatars, Jurchens, Korea, and even the distant Warat people who will come from afar to do the robbery. Of course, there are even rumors that some unruly Da Zhao Weijun sometimes change into ringing horse clothes and rob along the way to improve their lives.

Of course, except for the barbarians of the Later Jin State with ulterior motives, there are very few people who will rob the locals of Liaodong. First, the locals are not wealthy, and secondly, the locals in Liaodong are also the lords of the people's customs, so maybe they will let the small-scale Xiangma carry a big fight. Except for the hungry ringing horses.

The vast majority of Xiangma targets Dazhao and merchants from various countries, after all, the surrounding areas of Liaodong are rich in products. Especially for the merchants of Dazhao, Liaodong, Liaobei, and Korea are all places with extremely rich natural products. But here, there is a lack of many finely processed goods. The merchants of Da Zhao would often lead caravans to bring some goods such as silk and porcelain out of Shanhaiguan, and the deeper they went, the higher the price they naturally sold. In the same way, a lot of precious furs, ginseng, and many precious herbs will be collected back. In such a caravan, the high profit is enough for people to live without worry for a lifetime.

Therefore, even if there are a lot of horses in Liaodong, there are many businessmen who are willing to take this kind of risk, and the gamble is a windfall. It sounds like a lot of ringing horses, but it's impossible to encounter a ringing horse every trip, right? Besides, caravans are not purely vegetarian animals, and they also have strong defensive capabilities. Especially the caravans that came out of some big merchants, the horses couldn't be gnawed at all. Even Hibiki Horse may be able to eat it, so you can't lose more than half of your people just to grab something, right?

It's Zhao Zhe, but he wants to meet a loud horse to play. As long as it is not hundreds or thousands, with the terrifying combat power of these people in front of them, it is simply not enough to see. It's just a pity that every day for seventy or eighty miles, let alone the sound of the horse, even the sound of the donkey has not been encountered.

After hearing Zhao Zhe's repeated complaints, Qin Yun couldn't help but smile and comforted: "Your Majesty, it is probably that Liaodong has not been peaceful in the past year. At first, it was the invasion of the Houjin army, and then it was the encirclement and suppression of General Yang Dingshan's 300,000 army. The horses were either nested in the tunzi and the common people, or they had already heard the wind and fled. Where do you dare to come out? ”

is also said that although Yang Dingshan's 300,000 elites came to kill the Houjin army. But when you encounter the Xiangma troops, you can't say that you will be able to kill them easily, and you can also mix up some military merits. It's no wonder that it is said that there are many ringing horses in Liaodong, but I haven't even seen the shadow of the ringing horses.

After walking on horseback again, the sky gradually became dark. When Qin Yun asked if he would hurry up his horse and whip it up, there would be a fortress to rest after dozens of miles. But Zhao Zhe was too lazy to hurry again, anyway, there were two grandmasters, six first-grade, and ten second-grade. This kind of strength can go to Houjin Country for a walk. What are you afraid of in Liaodong? In the past three or four days, more than half of them have been spent in tents in the wilderness.

Camping is also a lot of fun. I walked forward for a while, ready to find a place to camp on the back of the mountain. I didn't walk a few miles, but I didn't expect to see a shadow in the distance and a flickering fire. According to what Qin Yun said, there is no store in front of the village here, and there should be no family. And Liaodong is actually like this, the population is sparse, and often you don't meet a single person after walking a long way.

Qin Yun took a guard to investigate, and after a while, he galloped back and reported that it was the caravan camp of Da Hengxiang. In order to hurry, they accidentally missed the lodging. But it is dark and difficult to walk at night, and there are at least forty or fifty miles away from the next military camp. I had to sleep in the wilderness and the woods.

"What kind of unit is Dahengxiang? How do you all seem to know? Zhao Zhe saw that the others were a little surprised, so he asked lazily.

"Childe, Da Hengxiang is a big merchant in my Da Zhao, it is said that the business is very large, and it also runs the business of a rich bank, which has a history of hundreds of years, and it is said that it is rich and rivals the country." One of the guards replied respectfully.

Rich and unbeatable? Zhao Zhe smiled. The treasury of one's own country knows that it is empty. It is estimated that some big merchants will indeed have more money than the treasury. And that bank, isn't it a bank? Zhao Zhe vaguely remembered that it seemed that some of his silver tickets were indeed stamped with the seal of Da Hengxiang.

It seems that this Da Hengxiang is estimated to be much richer than himself. At least, how many silver tickets are circulated in Dahengxiang across the country.

"Let's go and set up camp." Zhao Zhe pinched his stomach and rushed forward. The rest of the people, etc., naturally obey their orders. However, before he had taken a few steps, there was a rumbling sound of horses' hooves on the opposite side. Zhao Zhe couldn't tell the difference, but Qin Yun frowned and said, "It's a hundred-person cavalry team." ”

The guards, as well as those first-class masters, immediately drove forward and covered Zhao Zhe behind him. Each touches the weapon, if it is wrong, I am afraid that it will be the first to strike.

It didn't take long for the sound of horses' hooves to get louder and heavier, like bursts of muffled thunder, which shook people's hearts. The hundred-man cavalry team also appeared in the eyes of everyone by taking advantage of the night. I only heard someone shouting from the other side: "Come and stop." In front of my Hengxiang camp, no matter what kind of friends you are, please show face to the big gun king of the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau. ”

Before Zhao Zhe could ask, Qin Yun smiled and said, "Childe, there is an acquaintance." Wang Xian, the big gun, is the big boss of the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau, and he is bold and righteous. When he belonged to the lower reaches of the rivers and lakes, he was not only taken care of by him. And because he offended people, he was sheltered by him. Otherwise, my subordinates will not have the life to become soldiers. ”

When Zhao Zhe heard this, his face slowed down, and he smiled indifferently: "Qin Yun, since it is your friend, then you can go and negotiate with him." I secretly thought in my heart, and I guessed that Qin Yun was afraid that he would be annoyed by that Wang Xian, so he nagged about it.

With Zhao Zhe's answer, Qin Yun laughed loudly: "Is the one in front really Wang Xianwang's eldest brother?" Does the eldest brother ever remember the younger brother? ”

Wang Xian, who was on the other side, was obviously stunned. The bold voice soon came back: "It's too dark, I can't see which brother it is?" The sound was familiar, but I couldn't remember it. If you are in this fierce place, I hope that my brother will not hesitate to tell me his name. ”

"Haha, I'm Qin Yun, the Qin Yun who came down from Wudang Mountain." Qin Yun also understood that this was not the time to joke. Wang Xian must have received Da Hengxiang's dart, and he was frightened.

"Wudang Mountain Qin Yun? Ha, haha. Wang Xian was stunned for a moment, and then laughed excitedly: "Qin Yun, Brother Qin." With that, the man grabbed the horse's belly and drove forward quickly.

And Qin Yun was also under Zhao Zhe's approval, drove the horse a few steps forward, and jumped off the horse first. And Wang Xian, who was on the opposite side, was still a few horses away, so he turned over and jumped off the horse. Surprised, he rushed forward, grabbed Qin Yun, and after taking a closer look, he immediately laughed happily: "It's really my brother Qin Yun, it's been so many years in the blink of an eye, and I want to kill your brother." ”

The reunion of the old people is a lot of words. Zhao Zhe rode on the horse with an indifferent expression, looking at the big gun Wang Xian. The man was in his forties, tall and strong, with a full beard. It's quite a bit of a mighty stance.

"Okay, you kid is getting more and more handsome." After the two spoke, Wang Xian slapped Qin Yun's chest with a smile and said, "You left a letter last time saying that you were going to join the army, have you been a general all these years?" In the future, if your brother can't get along in the rivers and lakes, he can also take refuge in you. ”

"Brother Wang laughed, but junior brother, I am now a military attache of the fifth grade." Qin Yun didn't lie to him when he said this, the commander of the imperial guards was indeed a military attache of the fifth grade.

"Zheng Wupin?" Wang Xian was suddenly speechless, originally he was just joking. But I didn't expect him to get mixed with the fifth grade? Immediately overjoyed, he shouted at the hundred rider brothers who followed behind: "Brothers, everyone still remembers Brother Qin Yunqin." He is now the general of the fifth grade. ”

"Big brother, it's a military attaché." Qin Yun blushed slightly.

"It's all the same, it's all the same." Wang Xian was obviously extremely excited, and said happily: "I remember that our prefect is a five-rank official. ”

A group of people from the dart bureau dismounted and surrounded Qin Yun in the middle. Greeting each other, it's so lively. After a long time, Wang Xiancai waved everyone away, and said with a straight face: "Brother Qin Xian, are these people your brothers?" If it's convenient, introduce it to your brother. You also know that your brother eats a bodyguard meal, and he should make friends with heroes and heroes from all over the world. ”

Qin Yun didn't shirk either, pulled Wang Xian to Zhao Zhe, and said slightly respectfully: "Son, I'll introduce you to Brother Wang." ”

Zhao Zhe dismounted with a kind face, and the rest of the people also immediately dismounted. Zhao Zhe stepped forward and said with a smile: "My name is Zhao Zhe, and I am Qin Yun's top boss." It is a privilege to know Brother Wang. ”

"Where, Brother Zhao is really a talent, and he is already in a high position at a young age, which makes Wang admire." Wang Xian saluted a little stiffly, but in his heart he secretly said, this top boss of Brother Qin is so majestic on his body.
