Text Chapter 227, Sound East Strikes West (I)

In the Eagle Claw Fort, under the escort of the rat-like chariot, the transport vehicle transported three hundred elite Mongolian cavalry from Juyan Lake, led by Ximen Wangfu's henchman Tai Tingqi, to carry out the military affairs sent by the Hou Ye.

The three hundred Mongolian soldiers who took off their khaki winter uniforms, although they changed into their previous leather clothes and leather pants, but the equipment on their bodies was already very different.

The Mongolian soldiers and men each had a large backpack, and in the khaki backpack not only contained dry food and drinking water, but also a few rolls of medicine belts, a brand-new lighter, a small pot of fire oil, and two cartridges of projectiles.

These weapons were brought from the warehouse of Eagle Talon Fort, and they were also the reward for their trip.

Late at night, Yang 18, who was riding in a transport vehicle, brought thirty black-clothed guards, all dressed as Mongolian cavalry, and quietly came to Eagle Claw Fort.

With the assistance of eight transport vehicles, in one night, these three hundred and thirty-two hardcover men, together with their war horses, were transported into the deep mountains and wilderness and stationed at the wild boar beach.

In the early morning, Tai Thorn Qi and Yang Eighteen led the soldiers and men to pull their horses on the rugged mountain road, and ran straight towards Gansu Town, without the intention of covering their bodies at all.

This kind of swaggering formation is to force the border barracks outside Gansu Town, and they have to send troops to come, otherwise Lu Nianshan, the chief military officer, will not do it.

The team had just turned out of the col, and not long after the figure appeared on the bare mountain beam, a cloud of wolf smoke rose into the sky from the nearby fire mound.

In the official room not far from the Hou Ye's mansion, Xiao Ye was drinking tea and chatting with Gu Yanwu, and since he took out two more pills, Gu Yanwu has become his frequent visitor.

I have to say that the pharmacists in Gujiabao have now become another logistics team of the Hou Yefu, and Gu Yanwu is also helpless at this point.

The medicine field outside Gujiabao, although the land is vast and there is no shortage of water, the fertility of the medicine field reclaimed on the grassland is very pitiful, and if you want to harvest, you have to wait for at least two years, and in these two years, the Gu family's medicine households have to look at Xiao Ye's face when they eat and drink.

Fortunately, there is a shortage of Langzhong in the medical hall, a lack of professors in the school, and the medical staff are even more popular people in the barracks.

Drugholders who are unwilling to go into the barracks to get military salaries and food can go to Bailong Lake, pick medicinal herbs and sell them to the logistics team, but the cost of escorting people makes Gu Yanwu have a toothache when he thinks about it.

It's really a master who can't eat at all, looking at Ximen Xiaoye, who was talking and laughing in front of him, Gu Yanwu drank bitter tea, and his heart was slightly bitter. However, he also knew that it was the hard heart of this young marquis that allowed these tens of thousands of mouths to eat the chew they deserved according to the rules.

The three meals a day for the family members in the backyard of the Hou Ye's Mansion have been passed on by the guards of good deeds, except for the solar terms to worship the ancestors, the meals that are not much different from those in ordinary military households, Gu Yanwu sighed with emotion after hearing it.

"Master Hou, you are talking about the Persians, how can they develop such an elixir? Where did they come from? The Elimination Pill had already shocked Gu Yanwu, but the Dingyan Pill shocked him, and he only muttered vigorously.

He couldn't figure it out, Xiao Ye didn't explain, he just smiled and waved his hand, "You have read the list of medicinal materials, the various medicinal materials in it are the raw materials of the pill, and the ratio is not known,"

"The Trace Elimination Pill and the Dingyan Pill will be sold in limited quantities in the Shi family's shops in exchange for food, if you want it, Brother Gu, it doesn't hurt to give you two,"

Xiao Ye still had a pill in his hand, and he took out a lot of it, and was taken away by Yang Eighteen, but the consequences of taking that pill were quite terrible, and he was still waiting for Yang Eighteen to come back to see how effective the medicine was on the battlefield.

Powerful Pill, Detoxification Pill, Anti-Trace Pill, Dingyan Pill, plus Explosive Pill, are the five major pills given by the processing center, and they are also the confidence that Xiao Ye relies on the most, but they can be sold, but there are only three kinds, Powerful Pill and Explosive Pill are generally not shown to the public.

"Then thank you Master Hou," Gu Yanwu, who was overjoyed, although he didn't get the powerful pill and detoxification pill that he had been in his heart for a long time, but he got the anti-trace pill and the Dingyan pill, so he couldn't wait longer, and hurried back to Gujiabao.

As a pharmacist, if he didn't study the ratio of pills, he wouldn't be the patriarch of the Gu family.

As long as you have a silver ticket in your hand in the future, you can still buy the Poison Cleansing Pill in the pharmacy.

Standing on the steps, looking at the back of Gu Yanwu leaving in a hurry, Xiao Ye was very much looking forward to it, if he could figure out the ratio of the pill and the production of the pill, it would be excellent news for him Gu Jiabao.

But don't forget, there is one of the raw materials needed in the elixir that she Gu Yanwu never imagined, extremely terrifying raw materials, even if he wanted to break his head, he would not have thought of it. The doctors around Xiao Ye are mainly based on the Gu family, the title of this wonderful elixir developer, you can't say that it will fall on the Gu family, where else can it fall.

With this red and glamorous black cauldron on his back, Gu Yanwu just wanted to move the family, and he had to think about the fate of not being able to take out the pill.

In that case, Gu Jiabao was in his Xiao Ye's hands, and he would not have to run.

This elixir is not so easy to take, and sent Gu Yanwu away with a smile, Xiao Ye turned around and went to the next room, Xin Rulin and Wang Ziliang waited for a long time.

In the small living room of the official room, Xin Rulin and Wang Ziliang were drinking rattan tea, while chatting in a low voice about the affairs of Gansu Town.

Standing beside Wang Ziliang was Wang Deyu, who had just returned from Gansu Town, who had become a member of the film team, but he was still just an inconspicuous businessman on the outside.

Wang Deyu, who took the primary powerful pill, also became Xiao Ye's diehard subordinate, this kind of pill that is more terrifying than the powerful elixir, no longer needs Xiao Ye to use his own blood to synthesize, but the fate of the betrayer is a huge shackle on Xiao Ye's hands.

Having secretly verified the efficacy of the powerful pill many times, Xiao Ye did not know how powerful the processing center was, but the idea of possession of Shiguantun became more and more vigorous. As long as it's good for you, you can't think about anything else.

Coming to the small living room of the official room, Xiao Ye and several people discussed for a long time behind closed doors.

Hundreds of heavily armed Tatar cavalry appeared in the area of the original Yonghetun, and the news that the Mongols had infiltrated the border wall as the smoke of the fire pier passed to the town of Gansu generally spread.

In the study room of a house in Gansu Town, Lu Nianshan was discussing with Jiang Jie how to deal with the fledgling Ximen Xiaoye.

"Lord General Soldier, it's hard for that kid to start now," Jiang Jie, who frowned, said in a low voice with boundless resentment hidden in his eyes.

"Not to mention those merchants in Gansu Town, we are about to be unable to contain them, even the prison army is also very impatient, after all, the imperial store and the official store are subject to taxes, and we can't block the flow of materials to the grassland indefinitely,"

"What's more, how did that damn Jinong get in touch with Ximen Xiaoye, has this Ximen boy always been a spy of the Mongols?"

"Ahh

Lu Nianshan ran back to the border barracks in a gloomy manner, while spending a large amount of money to make some insiders, he secretly recruited nearby young people, and finally recruited 2,000 recruits from the two sub-battalions into the barracks, but the loss inside gave him a headache.

Regarding Lu Nianshan's complaints, Jiang Jie didn't even change his complexion, he sat there and pondered for a while, "Ximen Xiao Ye has always been eager to take revenge, and he won't send someone to retaliate, right?" ”

"He dares, I am a glorious and important town in the Ming Dynasty, a fugitive, and I still want to turn the sky upside down," Lu Nianshan's eyes glared, and he smiled with his teeth, and his smile was very penetrating.

"The Mongols gave him a broken seal, and he dared to call himself the Hou Ye, plus what he had done before, it was not necessarily," Jiang Jie seemed to be worried, but this kind of trick to add fuel to the fire still couldn't escape Lu Nianshan's eyes.

"It's just a bad trick," with a wave of his big hand, he didn't jump like thunder in Jiang Jie's expectations, Lu Nianshan snorted lightly, "Sooner or later, the general soldier will pick his skin,"

Jiang Jie arranged a house near Jingshi, and the family members inside were inexplicably killed, all of them were killed, and all their belongings were missing, this seems to be the news of being looted by bandits, and Lu Nianshan also received it, so he naturally sympathized with this thousand-household officer who had lost his official position.

But both of them knew in their hearts that behind the Jiang family's suffering, it would be strange to say that there was no shadow of Ximen Xiaoye, and they didn't believe it when they were killed.

Therefore, with a common enemy, and the fact that they are all members of the Huangsha Hall under that person's command, they naturally have the same hatred.

"Wow," Lu Nianshan got up and walked to the gable, opened a curtain, revealing a map of mountains and rivers, which was the entire topographical map from Gansu Town to Eagle Claw Fort, which was much simpler; You must know that in the Ming Dynasty, even the chief military officer would not have a detailed map, and only the military department would have detailed topographic maps of various places.

"Madao Stone Fort, Eagle Claw Fort, as well as Ximen Stone Fort, Gujia Fort, plus two small stone forts, where did you get so much money and so many people in this Ximen Xiao Night?" Looking at the six small black dots on the map, Lu Nianshan couldn't stop being jealous in his eyes.

When he was rampant on the grassland, even if he was known as Lu Yidao, he only held four strongholds, and the largest one was directly served by this subordinate sergeant of Ximen Xiaoye, and even pit the Huang family. This bitter hatred made Lu Nianshan not so happy when he was playing with women.

But now that terrible poisonous weeds can be seen everywhere on the grassland, he just wants to send troops to kill this enemy, even if the peak agrees, he will not go again easily.

On the night of the wild boar beach, the huge black iron giant/object, the big killing weapon that could spit out a foot-long flame, and the flowering bullet that smashed over the head and face made Lu Nianshan sober up a lot, and the destruction of the two thousand soldiers confirmed the powerful force of Ximen Xiaoye.

This kind of confidential information has been transmitted back to King Ning, counting on the Miscellaneous Bureau, Lu Nianshan does not have such great expectations.

There is also the Mongolian who is eyeing the tiger, always thinking about going into the side wall to threshk grass, and now he has an unclear relationship with Ximen Xiaoye.

"Hey," the situation changed so quickly that he felt that he was not old and slow to react, Lu Nianshan looked at the map, sighed faintly in his heart, and stared at the map with his hands behind his back in a daze.

"Kick, kick, kick," a sturdy lieutenant ran in and knelt down on one knee across the threshold, "Report, my lord, wolf smoke is coming from Yonghetun,"

"Well," Lu Nianshan turned his head suddenly, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, "It's the Mongolian cavalry?" How many people? ”

"It's the Mongol cavalry, numbering less than a thousand, and the subordinates have come from the city gates, and the news has just arrived at the time of a cup of tea," the lieutenant said earnestly. If the horse thieves in the mainland appear, the fire pier will not light a cigarette at will, and it will be arrested and imprisoned.

"Got it, prepare the horse," Lu Nianshan nodded and glanced at Jiang Jie, "This official is going to the border barracks, and the Mongols in the prisoner should be attacked, you will drink tea here first, and the servant will bring it for dinner,"

Jiang Jie understood what he meant at a glance, this was to make him think about it again, to see if there was a good way to deal with that Ximen Xiao Ye, so he signaled to understand.

Out of the study, Lu Nianshan walked into the official hat box, under the service of the two guards, put on a helmet and armor, hung a waist knife to the backyard, and rode out through the back door.

The cautious Lu Nianshan, since he ran back from the wild boar beach, has resumed his caution as a horse thief, and rarely walks through the gate when entering and exiting, but in the alley at the back door of his house, there are still a few small shops of households, half-dead earning subsistence money.

The well-intentioned people in these shops are staring at the back door of the General Soldier's Mansion day and night, and the money that Wang Ziliang spent is not so easy to get.

Lu Nianshan went to the border barracks outside the city, while Jiang Jie sat in the study, thinking about it, he still felt that he wanted to write a letter to his boss King Ning, and describe the situation here to King Ning in detail, to see if he could use the imperial army to take the Ximen Stone Fort in one go.

As for the accusations of snaring Simon Xiaoye, that is Jiangjie's specialty, and if he doesn't give this enemy a hundred major crimes to destroy the door, it will be in vain.

Naturally, Ximen Xiaoye has already threatened the safety of Huangshatang, and even stirred up the annual tribute to King Ning, which must be emphasized and emphasized, and the Persian business road must also be written clearly.

"I don't believe it, King Ning will be willing to give up this hen that lays golden eggs?" Jiang Jie, who was whispering to himself, spread out the raft and picked up the brush.

When Lu Nianshan drove out of the city gate with a hundred guards, the city gate was closed, and the sergeants and servants with knives and guns guarded the city, regardless of whether there were still people rushing to the city.

Yang 18 and Tai Thorn Qi led their subordinates, rode war horses out of the valley, bypassed a few hoards, and rushed to Gansu Town along the avenue.

In the northeast corner of Gansu Town, on a gentle slope with high terrain, a large camp was set up, surrounded by thick wooden piles, and there was no shortage of foothills and trenches; There is a low wood, and there is a small stream, which is a good place to camp.

Although Lu Nianshan is a horse thief for many years, he still has a good vision and has found this good place outside the city that is conducive to defense.

In the border barracks with drums, the sergeants of the brigade were armed with knives and guns, and under the leadership of the military academy, they guarded the camp, and the tiger guns and large lifting poles were also moved out and erected on the earthen platform, and barrels of gunpowder, iron sand, and iron pellets were prepared.

The loss of the wild boar beach made Lu Nianshan break most of the war horses, and now the rest can only meet the needs of the scouts, and before the arrival of the supplementary war horses, he will naturally not go out of the camp to trouble the Mongols.

Standing outside the big tent, Lu Nianshan, holding a telescope, looked at the Mongolian cavalry galloping in the distance of the camp, with an indifferent expression; Beside him, more than a dozen military captains, with leather armor and knives, waited silently.

The recruits just recruited by the A-word battalion and the B-shaped battalion, that is, a group of peasant pawns, can't take it, the C-shaped battalion, the T-shaped battalion, and the Xuzi battalion, but the 3,000 new army, Lu Nianshan is even more reluctant to lose anymore, at present, guarding this military camp is a deterrent to the Mongols.

"Pass the order, all teams and battalions, guard the barracks, do not go out at will, send people to the back camp to collect wooden barrels and water bags, and try to fill them with clean water to prevent the water source from being cut off," Putting down the binoculars in his hand, Lu Nianshan gave a military order in confusion.

"Yes, the subordinates listened to the order and immediately arranged manpower," several henchmen and lieutenants ran out, and the lieutenants who stayed behind stood behind the general soldier without moving.

"Hey, there are only a few hundred of these Mongols, what is this?" Lu Nianshan, who was puzzled, frowned and lowered his head and thought about it, could it be that this is just a bait, just waiting for himself to lead the army to attack?

No, it's winter, the grass and trees are dry, and the north, west, and south are flat land, and if the Mongols hide the main force, then they can also receive the news.

Could it be? Turning his gaze to Qingfeng Valley, Lu Nianshan was suddenly stunned, it's broken, the defenders in Qingfeng Valley are estimated to be more auspicious.

Lu Nianshan, who thought he had guessed the plans of the Mongols, had no idea of supporting Qingfeng Valley at all, even if Li Dongliang sent someone to ask for help, he would also agree, but in terms of action, he should be as slow as he wanted.

Perhaps, this is an opportunity, to grasp the pass of Qingfeng Valley, and the time to gallop the grassland by himself has come again. He didn't think about whether he would be slapped in the face or slapped in the face when he was blocked in the barracks by hundreds of Mongols.

Lu Nianshan, who had a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, paced into the big tent after once again ordering no one to go out, and it was almost time for dinner.

At sunset, at this moment, on the shore of Juyan Lake, on the withered yellow grassland, a rat-like chariot was buzzing quickly, and a flock of sheep five hundred steps away was struggling to gnaw on the dry grass on the ground, and there were thousands of heads.

"All the way, all the way," said a Mongol Khan who was guarding the roof of the chariot, wielding a vehicle-mounted machine gun, aimed the muzzle of the gun at the scattered sheep, tightened his hands fiercely, and pulled down the trigger in a hollow shape.

The rain of bullets sprinkled on the head and face was like an invisible iron broom, causing blood to splash in the flock, and the screams continued, and the red blood was sprinkled all over the pasture.

The chariot circling the flock had just run back and forth, and there were not many sheep left, and the sheep that stood there began to scurry in a daze, not knowing why their companions had broken their heads and bellies.

"Hahahaha, good, good," Jinong, who put down the binoculars, couldn't help laughing, but the few tribal leaders around him were pale; Ranelte, dressed in a thick leather jacket and a leather coat, stood impressively among the leaders, his eyes glazed over.

After receiving Jinong's order, he and the leaders of several large tribes had to rush from the winter pasture to Juyan Lake, and they saw this scene, the cold wind behind their heads.

"See, this is our ironclad chariot," Jinong said arrogantly, pointing to the chariot painted with sword and shield insignia, "With it, how many days can the Tile Thorn Tribe resist?" No, they can't stop it at all,"

Handing the binoculars to the guards beside him, Jinong held the fur on his shoulder, and his eyes gradually became cold, "Within a month, I will gather an army of 50,000 and sweep through the Watt Thorn tribe." ”

"Give you half a month, each tribe will send five thousand elites to converge at Juyan Lake,"

"This attack on the Watt Thorn tribe, the capture is divided according to the merits of the war, Benjinong only needs half of it, but the captives must be brought back to Juyan Lake, and they must not be killed at will," his words made these leaders rejoice, but there were not so many captures and shares before.

"Yes, the subordinates obey Jinong's orders," after a chaotic shout, with Jinong's hand, these leaders who had finally arrived dispersed and rushed back to the tribe, ready to gather their troops.

Four miles away from the barracks, the Mongol cavalry were on the hillside by the avenue, unsaddled their horses and rested, ate dried meat and drank milk wine, and raised a large bonfire to keep warm.

Yang Shibai swallowed the chewy meat tendons, picked up the leather bag and drank a few sips of milk wine, looked up at the sky, glanced at the Tai Thorn Qi not far away, and the two walked aside.

Handing the small burden in his hand to Tai Shuqi, Yang Eighteen took out his pocket watch and pointed to the pointer on it, "No, the time is set at twelve o'clock tonight, this is it, the long needle and the broken needle are pointed here, it is the time for you to act,"

"I'll take a few people to General Lu's house to do some errands, and I'll go back to Wild Boar Beach after I'm done, don't wait for us," pointing to the guards who were resting on the other side, Yang Eighteen said in a deep voice, "The twenty guards left behind are for you to break off, you don't have to worry about them,"

"Yes, my subordinates know," took over the somewhat heavy burden, and a trace of unbearability flashed across Tai Thornqi's face, but he nodded and left.

The plan was assigned by the official office, and he could only cooperate with Yang Eighteen District to complete it, although there would be a large reward and a generous pension afterwards, but Tai Tingqi, who had seen the effect of the pill in the baggage, was still a little weak in his legs and feet.

After calling the two chiefs, Yang Eighteen gave up his war horse, picked up his khaki backpack, and led ten guards to disappear on the top of the mountain depression.

The purpose of his trip was not the border barracks in front of him, but Jiang Jie in Gansu Town.
