Chapter 561: Misfire (Part I)
Two days have passed since Zhao Gongming's funeral, no one has mentioned this matter anymore, Yan Du himself regretted it a little, he was not afraid but felt that he had not done better, bigger and more magnificent, he was like a negative child, and he had a temper with the Golden Horde. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Ayuhuan doesn't have enough control over the development of the situation, he is not like Zhao Gongming, who can see the bad trend of some things and make timely adjustments, and he himself does not have enough courage to speak for Yandu or the Golden Horde.
Things came to this point, and the contradiction between Yandu and the Golden Horde escalated from two people to two tribes, and the people of the Ashina tribe and the Tiele tribe began to hate each other, so the following scene happened. There is a small patch of fertile grassland in the south between the Ashina and the Tiele tribe, this grassland was invaded by the Han troops before, so no Turks would graze there, and later Gao Huan and the Turkic Golden Horde signed a contract to attack and defend the alliance, and the Han no longer appeared in the area, so the first herdsmen of the Tiele tribe occupied the grassland.
Later, because the Gaoche and Khitan people often haunted, the herdsmen withdrew to the vicinity of the royal court, and a family of the Ashina tribe, the male named Okuda, migrated there with his wife, a son, a daughter, and a family of four. After a long period of time, Okuda and his wife cultivated this water and grassland very fat, raised a lot of cattle and sheep, and the family's life became better and better.
On this day, Okuda sent his milk and wool to the nearby market to sell, and today the business went surprisingly well, and it didn't take long for him to sell all the goods, and a groom passed by and saw him, and greeted him very warmly to drink together, Okuda was going to buy a little necessities and go home, but now he met an acquaintance and naturally it was not easy to refuse, so he and the groom went to the side tavern to sit down and have two drinks.
This is the way things are in this world, God is giving you some gifts, you should enjoy them in time, don't be greedy, don't hesitate. Okuda's business was so good that nothing would have happened if he had returned home in time, but unfortunately he had been delayed in the tavern with the groom, and all the things he regretted later had happened. By the time the two of them came out of the tavern, it was nearly noon.
Okuda said goodbye to the groom and drove the carriage in the direction of his home, a little drunk along the way, drunkenly humming a little song and walking proudly, in fact, there was not much way from the small market to his house, if it was really a short walk to get there. When he was not far from his home, he suddenly saw a puff of black smoke rising, and Okuda looked closely at it coming from the direction of his house, and he was half drunk at once.
When he desperately drove the carriage to his neighborhood, he couldn't believe what he saw. The cattle and sheep were gone, the tent where he lived was burned to a shelf, and only one door was left standing in the black ruins. He tumbled out of the carriage and ran forward, shouting the names of his wife and children as he ran. When he came to the edge of the tent and searched for no one, his heart was dying, when suddenly there was a noise in the haystack beside him, and Okuda looked back and wept with joy.
One of his sons and daughters, who had been hiding inside, hurried forward to report them out of the haystack, and his daughter, who was more than six years old and spoke very clearly, when Okuda asked, "Where are your grandmothers?" Where did she go? What's going on here? = The eldest daughter cried and said, "Abba, as soon as you left the house, a few horseback riders came to make trouble, and if you have to say that this place belongs to them, you want Grandma to move from here immediately." Grandma didn't agree and quarreled with them, and as a result, they started beating Grandma. Okuda anxiously asked, "And then?" ”
The daughter couldn't cry at this time, and the son was only three years old and didn't know how to talk about things, so he also cried at this time and said: "I want Grandma, I want Grandma, and I want my Grandma." Okuda remembered that he was going to die, so he comforted his daughter and said, "It's okay, you can tell Aba what is going on." Then the eldest daughter said, "Then they departed, but not long before they returned, this time with wolf-dogs and torches." My grandmother saw that they were all very fierce, so she hid my brother and me, and it turned out to be a result. ”
Okuda anxiously asked, "What happened to the result?" "When a child talks, it makes people anxious. The little girl cried and said, "As a result, Grandma didn't let them set fire to our cattle and sheep, so they fought with them, and they snatched Grandma away." When Okuda heard this, his eyes were on fire and his fists were clenched, so he asked, "What do they look like?" In which direction? The daughter thought for a while and pointed to the northeast and said, "Which direction to go, Grandma was also taken away by them, Abba go and save Grandma." ”
Okuda asked the group of people about their appearance and clothing again, and now he could basically guess that it might be the Tiele people who did it, because there was only one person from the Tiele tribe in the east direction, and they often appeared near their own pastures before, but they didn't find anything abnormal about them at that time, so Okuda didn't care, and now he thinks that maybe these people are jealous of their cattle and sheep.
He put his sons and daughters in the wagon, and drove them to the market, and he first deposited them with his uncle, and then he borrowed horses to find his saber and shield, and with his hunting bow and arrows on his back, he pursued them eastward, and he went to find his wife. He rode forward alone, searching, and after walking for about half an hour, he saw the tents of several families besieging the city on the side of a hill in the territory of Tielebu.
He then turned over and dismounted and sneaked over, only to see a firewood pile set up in the middle of the tents of those families, as if he was barbecuing something, and then he saw that there was a person tied to the horse-tethered stake on the side, which was his wife. When he saw that the cattle and sheep in the pen were all his own cattle and sheep, he wanted to rush up and kill all the dozen or so people, but he soon found that doing so was undoubtedly self-defeating, and he secretly heard a man say when he got closer: "When the men of his family come, we will kill them all, and then we can move over." ”
It seemed that the gang had come for their own pasture, and now he understood why they were robbing things and burning houses. Okuda did not dare to delay, turned and ran back. Along the way, he had thought of dozens of ways to deal with these bad guys, and now the most important thing for him was to go back to the tribe and call people first. He is a member of the Ashina tribe, and if something happens in his own family, the chiefs of the tribe will naturally take care of them.
When the centurion heard that his people had been attacked by a foreigner, he repaid the favor, and gathered together forty or fifty men, and then led Okuda to the camp. The dozen or so Tiele men were still drinking wine and eating roast sheep, and knives and bows and arrows fell from the sky, and three people were shot and one was killed on the spot. The remaining dozen or so people were tied up before they dared to move, and Okuda stood in front of them angrily with a knife and said, "What do I have against you, why do you want to do this to me and my family?"
