Chapter 331: Trading Horses

Li Yao rubbed the palace maid's jade feet for a while, and then asked, "How are your feet now?" ā€

The palace maid was rubbed by Li Yao's feet for a while, and murmured softly with silky eyes: "It's much better!" ā€

Li Yao put on the palace maid's shoes, and then said, "Get out of the palace and go back to where you should go!" ā€

The palace maid glanced at Li Yao in surprise, and asked suspiciously: "Prince Li, why did you drive me away, did I do something wrong?" ā€

Li Yao said softly: "You don't want to poke you, hurry up, otherwise when I regret it, you won't have a chance!" ā€

The palace maid looked at Li Yao's serious appearance and said in surprise: "How did you see it?" ā€

Li Yao pointed to his feet and said: "If you approach me in a different way, I will definitely not be able to see through it, but you just used this method, I feel that something is wrong when I touch your feet, people who have practiced martial arts are different from those who have not practiced martial arts, it is obvious that you can feel it!" ā€

The palace goddess immediately stood up, didn't look injured at all, took out a short knife from behind, and rushed over!

Li Yao didn't panic when he saw the palace maid rushing over, but took two steps back, vacating a distance, and the palace maid saw Li Yao take two steps back and said, "Do you think you can escape the dead end in this way?" ā€

Li Yao didn't answer the assassin's palace maid's words, and the palace maid assassin suddenly felt a chill behind her back, and fainted!

Li Yao looked at Fuchuan, who was standing in the palace maid, and said, "Why did you just come, you were almost killed just now!" ā€

Fuchuan still said coldly: "I really want to see if you can stand the temptation of this palace maid!" ā€

Li Yao smiled: "Fuchuan, you look down on me too much when you say that, with such a beautiful person as you here, can I still look down on others?" ā€

Fuchuan ignored Li Yao, but picked up this palace maid and walked away!

Li Yao asked, "Fuchuan, where are you taking her?" ā€

Fuchuan replied coldly, "Interrogation!" ā€

Okay, Li Yao nodded and said, "The interrogation comes out and reports to me!" ā€

At this time, the guard ran over to report and said, "Master Hou, there is a letter from the Uighurs, saying that they can make a deal!" ā€

Li Yao nodded and said, "Okay, I know, tell the Uighur envoys that we will leave tomorrow and get them ready to trade!" ā€

Then Li Yao sent a message to the blind man, asking him to gather 40,000 cavalry and 20,000 foot soldiers, wait outside Yidu, and set off early tomorrow morning!

The trading materials An Zhu was ready, but An Zhu asked to send a few people to follow, and Li Yao nodded and agreed!

As a businessman, it must be good to be able to open up a new trade route, but this trade route is impossible to open up successfully without the guarantee of strong force, so Li Yao doesn't care about the few people he follows!

Early the next morning, Li Yao came to the outside of Yidu, saw that the 60,000 army was ready, waved his hand and said, "Let's go!" ā€

Li Yao dispatched 60,000 troops and escorted so many goods, the movement is very big, especially the spies of Tubo in Yidu, these materials are very important to them, although there is a large army to escort, but if you can really eat it, it is still very profitable, so the spies quickly reported the news to Tubo!

When the king of Tubo received the news reported by the spies, he immediately gathered an army of 100,000 to prepare to plunder Li Yao, who had just stepped into the border of Tubo at this time!

The Tibetans are also nomadic people, so they may not see a single person in the grassland for a day, or they may see tens of thousands of people at once!

According to Li Yao's calculations, it only took seven days to travel from Yiguo to the Uighur border through the territory of Tibet, and now it is the third day, but he has not even seen a single figure, and he does not need to think about it to know that the Tibetans have received the news and are far away from this place!

Although Li Yao has 40,000 cavalry, there are only 5,000 Dawan horses, and the rest are Liang Dynasty military horses, which may not be comparable to the performance of horses, but seeing that the 40,000 cavalry horses are hung with three rockets on their backs, Li Yao's confidence is sufficient, with such strong fire support, even if the enemy army is strong, there is no way!

Because of the two sharp weapons of telescopes and signal flares, the cavalry can well reconnoiter the situation around twenty miles, and if there is an enemy situation, send a signal flare, and Li Yao can receive the signal!

The army marched for another day, and at noon, when it was about to bury the pot and make food, suddenly there was a big signal flare in the sky, and ten signal flares were fired in a row, which proved that there were 100,000 troops, Li Yao said to the blind man: "Blind man, you take 40,000 cavalry to attack the enemy, and I will lead 20,000 foot soldiers to garrison in place to prevent sneak attacks!" ā€

The blind man nodded, and then shouted to the cavalry behind him: "Cavalry, charge with me!" ā€

The 40,000-strong army rushed towards the place where the signal flare was fired, and the method of the alien attack was very simple, that is, to charge!

They won't fight tough battles, so Li Yao won't block the supplies in front and let the soldiers stay where they are, they have such powerful weapons, only if they are most proud of the charge to defeat them, so that they can feel afraid, only if they are afraid, it will be more convenient to transport in the future, Li Yao doesn't want to be harassed by these Tubo cavalry, otherwise it will delay the progress very much!

The 40,000 cavalry quickly reached the battlefield, and when the blind man saw the enemy's 100,000 cavalry rushing towards him, he shouted: "Prepare the rockets, and launch them when they are close to us 200 paces!" ā€

The formation of 100,000 cavalry charging is not small, when they saw that these 40,000 cavalry actually stood still, they were bloody, in the cavalry charge, if they did not dare to charge head-on, the consequence would be knocked to the ground!

When the king of Tibet saw 40,000 cavalry standing stupidly, he shouted: "Kill them and rob them of supplies!" ā€

The blind man saw that the 100,000 cavalry was getting closer and closer, and as soon as he stepped into the distance of 200 paces, the blind man shouted: "Launch the rocket!" ā€

When the soldiers heard the blind man's order, they raised the rockets in their hands and pulled the fuse, and the rockets flew out with sparks, and the smoke from the 40,000 rockets turned the whole sky gray. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

When the rocket exploded to the front of the cavalry, the cavalry charging in the front was directly overturned with people and horses, and the cavalry behind could not stop even if they wanted to stop their horses, some of them had good riding skills, and they directly stepped over the horses with bad riding skills, and they stepped directly from the cavalry in front of them, because the war horses also fell to the ground, so even if some horses jumped up, they did not cross, and they were tripped again, and the 100,000 cavalry of Tubo were directly disrupted by this wave of attacks!

Seeing this, the king of Tubo hurriedly organized the cavalry and prepared to attack again, but the blind man did not give him this chance and shouted: "Second rocket launch!" ā€

40,000 rockets flew over with gray smoke and dust, and the rockets exploded one after another, and the Tibetan troops suffered heavy casualties for a while!

When the king of Tubo saw that the enemy army had such a powerful weapon, how could he dare to continue to charge, so he had to gather his troops and retreat quickly. ā€

Li Yao has a reward for killing the enemy, killing a foot soldier can get five taels of silver, killing a cavalry can get ten taels of silver, killing enough ten people can be upgraded to first-class military merit, if you want to be promoted and raise your salary, military merit is a necessary condition, first-level military merit is allowed to be a squad leader, after killing ten enemies, you can be promoted to second-level military merit, and only those with second-level military merit are allowed to be platoon commanders, and so on, but even if you have military merit after the company commander position, you need to learn before you can hold it!

The Tibetan army has been defeated, so it is still very easy to chase and kill the remnants of the enemy, the blind man chased them for fifty miles, and let the army withdraw, this time to protect the delivery of materials, not to exterminate the Tibetan army, so do not go deep!

The king of Tubo ran for two more hours with the army, and only stopped after making sure that there were no chasing soldiers, Tubo looked at the more than 10,000 people behind him, and exclaimed: "What is going on? Why are we only so many? ā€

The general behind the king of Tubo said: "King, some of the soldiers have been scattered, and some have not kept up with our pace and have fallen behind, as long as we gather it, how can we also collect 50,000 cavalry!" ā€

When the king of Tubo heard the news that there were only 50,000 left, he regretted it: "I would have known that I wouldn't have beaten Li Yao's idea, he is a person who can even be driven away by the Liang army, so we have nothing to do to provoke him!" Fortunately, we have lost 50,000 troops before we have met in person, and we have just finished the war with the Uighurs, and now we have lost another 50,000 cavalry, and our national strength has been greatly damaged! ā€

When the generals behind the King of Tubo heard the words of the King of Tubo, they did not dare to speak, in case they touched the eyebrows of the King of Tubo, the consequences would be miserable!

The king of Tubo looked at all the soldiers who also lowered their heads and did not speak, and muttered to himself: "Gather the rout and return to the capital tomorrow!" ā€

One of the generals said, "King, shall we just withdraw?" ā€

The king of Tubo looked at the general and asked, "What do you want to do if you don't withdraw?" ā€

Now these 50,000 cavalry is my last hole card, no matter whether the attack on Li Yao wins or loses, we will suffer heavy losses, and when the time comes, my strength will be greatly damaged, how can I manage the entire Tubo!

When the general heard the words of the King of Tibet, he also lowered his head and did not dare to speak!

The King of Tubo looked at the soldiers and had no objections, so he said: "Okay, don't be discouraged, Li Yao is an existence that even the Liang Dynasty is afraid of, and our defeat this time is nothing!" ā€

When the soldiers saw that the King of Tubo had said this, they all nodded and said, "What the King of Tubo said is right!" ā€

The king of Tubo didn't dare to touch Li Yao at all now, because his 100,000 cavalry didn't even see the face of the opposite side, and he was defeated when he charged.

Li Yao watched the blind man come back unscathed with 40,000 cavalry, and asked, "How is it, what are the results?" ā€

The blind man pointed to the cavalry behind him, each of whom was carrying the head in his hand, and said, "This time more than 40,000 enemies were killed, and there were no casualties on our side!" ā€

Li Yao praised: "Good job, it seems that now our business routes should be smooth!" ā€

Li Yao came to the Tibetan border at the prescribed time, and the Uighur prince who was waiting at the Tibetan border saw that Li Yao had arrived on time, and hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Brother-in-law, have you encountered any danger on the way here?" ā€

Li Yao said with a smile: "If you don't encounter danger, you have slaughtered more than 40,000 sheep!" ā€

The Uighur prince did not understand what Li Yao was saying, so he asked, "I wonder what my brother-in-law said!" ā€

Li Yao said with a smile: "The king of Tubo didn't want to loot my batch of materials for a long time, brought 100,000 troops over, and then I killed 40,000, and there were no casualties on our side in the battle, isn't it as simple as slaughtering sheep?" ā€

When the Uighur prince heard Li Yao's words, he smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, I know that you Han people like to talk big, we also fought with the Tibetans this year, and our millions of troops only killed more than 100,000 of them, and we also suffered more than 100,000 casualties, how could you kill their 40,000 elite troops without a single casualty!" ā€

Li Yao said to the blind man: "Take out the head and take a look!" ā€

The blind man said to the guards, "Pull the carriage out!" ā€

Several cars of heads were pulled out, and Li Yao said, "See! ā€

When the Uighur prince saw the carts of heads, he hurriedly ran over and took one to take a look, there were traces of helmets on their heads that had been pressed all year round, this was indeed the elite guard of the king of Tubo, because the nomads were all soldiers, so if there were any traces of helmets, you could know whether these troops were regular troops!

The Uighur prince put down his head and said in his heart: "Fortunately, Li Yao is now in a cooperative relationship with himself, otherwise, he would really be in danger, people can kill 40,000 unscathed even 100,000 troops, and his own 20,000 troops are not enough for him to slap his teeth!" ā€

The Uighur prince respectfully said to Li Yao: "Brother-in-law, you are really very powerful, and it is my greatest honor to be able to make a deal with you!" ā€

Li Yao said: "Okay, I'll bring you everything you want, you go and order, if there is nothing different, let's start trading!" ā€

The Uighur prince hurriedly said, "What did my brother-in-law say, can I still not believe you?" If you say enough, then it's definitely enough! ā€

Then the Uighur prince said to the guards behind him: "Go and let the herdsmen drive the horses over and let the brother-in-law accept them!" ā€

These horses are very easy to accept, and you can see that there are about the same number of horses when you glance at them!

Li Yao said to the blind man: "You go and arrange the 20,000 military horses, and then let the 20,000 foot soldiers ride back!" ā€

The blind man nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go over and arrange it!" ā€

Then Li Yao said to the Uighur prince, "Brother-in-law, how are you doing with the white stacks and wild flowers?" ā€

When the Uighur prince heard Li Yao ask about this, he hurriedly said, "I have already arranged this matter to be done, and I think it won't be long before I can pick it!" ā€

Li Yao nodded and said, "Okay, I'm giving you a month, I'll come back to trade with you next month, I hope you can give it to me on time!" ā€

The Uighur prince nodded, "This is nature! ā€

Li Yao patted the back prince on the shoulder and said, "Brother-in-law, when we met for the first time, I didn't bring a meeting gift, so you can take all the 40,000 heads!" ā€

The Uighur prince rejoiced: "Then thank you brother-in-law!" ā€

Li Yao smiled: "Is it the first time we met?" It's all as it should be! ā€

The Uighur prince said, "Brother-in-law, since this is the first time we have met, I will also give you a gift, and in a month I will personally send you white stacks and wild flowers, and I will not receive a penny!" ā€

Li Yao looked at the Uighur prince, nodded, and said, "Okay, then I'll trouble you!" ā€

After another hour had passed, and the blind man had all been arranged, Li Yao said to the Uighur prince: "Now that the deal has been completed, then I will not linger here, I still have some business!" ā€

The Uighur prince hurriedly said, "Well, brother-in-law, go slowly!" ā€

Seeing Li Yao leave, the general behind the Uighur prince said, "Your Royal Highness, that Li Yao is so hateful, he actually asked you to pick white stacks and wild flowers in an arranged tone!" ā€

The Uighur prince said: "This is a powerful friend, I must hold on to him firmly, as long as I have Li Yao's support, the Uighur king will not be able to capture him!" ā€

The general nodded and said: "This Li Yao is really powerful, he can actually kill the 40,000 troops of Tubo unscathed, if he gets Li Yao's support, His Royal Highness the Prince will definitely be able to sit in the position of the Uighur King!" ā€

The Uighur prince looked at the carts of heads and said, "Take the heads, and let's go to our father to receive the reward!" Forty thousand heads of enemies, Father shall not reward me with tens of thousands of people and innumerable livestock! (To be continued.) )
