The long convoy of horses walked unhurriedly on the official road, and the carriages behind were all wrapped tightly in cloth curtains, so that it was impossible to see what was inside from the outside. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhao Meng is at the forefront of the team, and after walking for so long, he is still struggling fiercely in his heart, after all, if these things are kept by his own family, he can be said to be able to earn a lot of wealth, and he doesn't understand whether it is a correct choice to go to Luoyang.

He is not an indecisive person, he has a disagreement with Zhao Yun on this matter, in addition to being the father of his son, he also has another identity as the head of the Zhao family, and everything must be based on the interests of the family.

If the emperor Lao'er is really as Zilong said, he will announce to the world that everything will be closed. Otherwise, the Zhao family will have to promote it themselves, and I believe that no matter which family, they will rush to it.

"Head of the house!" Zhao Zhi's equestrian skills became more and more sophisticated, and he stopped a zhang away.

"It's the rats who are ready to get moving." Zhao Meng was not surprised.

Since leaving Zhending, there have been people pretending to be various identities, and they are naturally coveting tribute in the Zhao family's convoy left or right.

At this moment, they are about to leave the border of Jizhou, and these people can't talk about it if they don't do it.

"Fortunately, they are complex and do not belong to the same force." Zhao Ren sighed with emotion: "It is impossible to cooperate with each other to be as close as a force. ”

"Maybe some of these forces are still in a hostile relationship," Zhao Zhi raised his eyebrows: "When the time comes, we can try it out and let them fight first." ”

"What's so troublesome?" Zhao Yong was disdainful: "Whoever dares to make a move, directly exterminate." ”

Zhao Meng didn't say a word, listening to a few people talking next to him.

With his old brother, he has never put on the majesty of the head of the family, and no one knows who.

"Remember, after arriving at Sili, anyone who peeps will be killed!" Zhao Meng waited for them to finish making a fuss before he gave an order.

Although the age difference between the eight brothers and him is only more than ten years, they usually talk and laugh, once he gives an order, he will carry it out to the letter, never ask for reasons, and complete the task even if he dies.

The trilogy is the trilogy, although in the Zhao family, for one reason or another, their status is simply one in the sky and one in the ground compared to other families, even the children of the family are the same as them.

Everyone quietly conveyed that over the years, everyone had a set of effective ways to disseminate information, which was inspired by Zhao Yun's saying that no sound is allowed on the battlefield, only gestures.

The sound of hooves was good, and behind the Zhao family's convoy, there were several caravans, some large and some small.

In recent years, it has been walking on the official road, and it is not very peaceful, and even some bandits will rob across the border.

The Zhao family's convoy was numerous, and the long carriages were connected together, and they were several miles long.

It looked strong, and behind each cart was one or two knights, all armed with weapons.

In this era, even one person and one horse seem extravagant, not to mention a huge army?

Looking at the banners with the words Zhending and Zhao everywhere, anyone can guess that it must be the convoy of the Hou family of Zhending.

The hearts of these caravans are also very worried, so they don't know what is really going to happen to their caravan, and whether the people of the Zhao family will make a move.

Just when they were very uneasy, they saw a person rise like a big bird, and in less than three breaths, he came to the end of the train fleet, looking at the middle-aged man with a hesitant face.

The knight did not speak, drew the sword he carried with him, and the sword flashed, and the head fell to the ground.

Then, he commanded in a loud voice: "There are thieves who covet the tribute of my Zhao family, if any of you want to report to the official, please give the local county order a word." ”

After speaking, he didn't make a move, and moved two or three times back to his horse, as if all this had nothing to do with him just now, and there was no expression on his face.

In principle, the warriors of the Zhao family will not make a move against the Han people, unless they are extremely vicious bandits, and they want to report to some forces just now.

"My God, this kid isn't a good bird at first glance, he just walked with us, and in a blink of an eye he fell last. No wonder he was killed by the Zhao family's subordinates. ”

"Can his Zhao family cover the sky with one hand? This is neither Zhending nor Jizhou, but the scope of our company. ”

"Shen Yan, didn't you hear what people said? In their carriage was tribute. ”

"Why don't you go quickly? Hurry to their heads, so that no one else will suspect us. ”

At this moment, everyone dared to talk about it, a carrier pigeon. Crawling out of the deceased's sleeve, his small black eyes staring at his surroundings suspiciously.

Seeing all this, everyone finally realized that the Zhao family's murder was not unreasonable, it can be seen that the identity of the person who was killed must be unusual, how can an ordinary family have a carrier pigeon?

Seeing that the people of the Zhao family dared to kill people on the official road, some small forces finally stopped their small actions and played the role of killing chickens and monkeys, and then did nothing for a day or two.

Early in the morning of the third day, the convoy set off as usual, and the troops on duty in the evening got into the carriage to rest.

A horse came in a hurry, found Zhao Ren, whispered something, and then left in a hurry.

Today's convoy seems to be no different from the past, and if you look closely, you will find that the quiver behind each knight is full, and the entourage is less than half.

Jigong Mountain is a mountain next to the official road, and the road is like a sword, splitting a mountain from the middle.

From a distance, the hills on both sides really look like a pair of roosters with their necks raised.

The middle section of the road, three or four miles long, is called Jigong Gorge, the official road in the canyon, can only accommodate a horse-drawn carriage to go forward, on both sides are bubbling streams, I don't know if it is a road built in the middle of the stream.

When the hour and noon intersected, a troop of cavalry roared in, and the sound of hooves could be heard from afar, and puffs of dust and smoke rose behind the horse team, and there were no less than a thousand people.

When they arrived at the mouth of Jigong Gorge, the group of men and horses divided into two teams in an orderly manner, but did not enter the valley, but beat their horses and galloped towards the mountains on both sides.

Occasionally, when encountering people, the horse does not stop, and the knight ends it with an arrow.

There are not many steep mountains in Sili, and the mountain roads on both sides are only a little narrow, but they are not steep.

It's just that in order to protect the horses, everyone didn't run too fast, but gently lifted the reins of the horses and let the horses control their own speed.

Finally, the two teams almost arrived at the top of the hill on both sides, each with a stockade.

Strangely, there was no one at the gate of the village.

Finally, when the knights reached the stockade, they saw a few panicked bandits, and without saying anything, they raised their arrows and shot them.

Their arrows were quite accurate, except for occasional occasions when one or two were not fatal with a single blow, and the knight drew his sword to make up for it.

The strange thing is that in addition to the young people in the cottage, there are middle-aged people, and there are no old, weak, women and children.

The back door of the stockade is much larger than the front door.

Don't look at the Jigong Gorge is very narrow, the road on the top of the mountain can accommodate four horses in parallel.

The knights did not stay in the stockade for a moment,

The horses galloped, close to the side of the canyon, many thieves stared at the valley mouth closely, but they didn't know that the knights of the Zhao family were too fast, not only killed all the people in the cottage, but also attacked and killed from behind.

No one in the teams on both sides spoke from beginning to end, and when they saw people, they just shot, and the people behind the team made up a knife in the throat of the bandit who was not dead.

This is not war at all, but a one-sided slaughter.

Just after noon, Zhao Meng led people to the valley and saw Zhao Yi and Zhao Yong, who were waiting immediately.

"Is anyone hurt?" He asked casually.

The two shook their heads.

"Master, their lair should be in those cols behind." Zhao Yong couldn't help but say.

"It doesn't matter," Zhao Meng disagreed: "If you lose the vast majority of young adults, what threat can you have?" ”

The convoy continued to set off as if nothing had happened.

Only Ge Hong, who looked confused, muttered to himself: "Is killing people also a kind of practice?" (To be continued.) )
