Only Daddy Porett was still riding steadily in the middle of the group. I don't know if it was the naughty guy who suggested that Daddy Porot also sing a barbarian folk song. All of a sudden, the young people gathered around the chief, smiling and encouraging Daddy. At first, Daddy Bojette didn't want to answer these naughty people. Su He winked at me and Qin Fu. ”

"I would say to Daddy Boret, 'Daddy, sing a song, so that we, the strangers, may also see the song of the steppe.' ”

The people around him immediately made an uproar, and said vigorously that the request of the distant guest could not be refused. A helpless smile appeared on Daddy's face. The surrounding sounds immediately became quieter, and then a deep voice slowly sang, 'Goshawk, hunt beasts.' The world is vast, only my man. ’”

The low and slow tune began to slowly rise, and the barbarian boys beside him also put away the laughter on their faces and joined the singers. The singing became more and more majestic and high-pitched, and finally, the whole team was singing the same tune. ”

"The song stopped abruptly, and the aftermath lingered on the grassland for a long time."

"July 12, 9080:"

"This is my second diary entry of the same day, and I witnessed the devastation after the slaughter shortly after the beginning of my journey to the grasslands, which was really unexpected. Looking at the red sky in the distance, it looks like blood dripping from the tip of a knife. ”

Suhe first noticed something unusual, about a dozen miles northwest of the caravan, several vultures were circling in the sky, and the howl of wild wolves was faintly heard. With the consent of Daddy Porot, Sukh sped away with his two companions. Soon, several short hawk whistles were heard. Daddy Porot had a calm face. Command the caravan to turn northwest. The smell of burnt burnt gradually fills the air. I smell some blood. Although I've been used to seeing swords and blood in my military career, I still feel uneasy. ”

The team quickly arrived at the scene of the accident, littered with ashes from the felt tents, and several embers that had not yet been extinguished were still raging and dancing. Seeing the corpses in the pool of blood, everyone hung their heads. The attack was supposed to be at noon, and most of the people were enjoying a moment of leisure during the labor break and did not feel the slightest sense of doom. Even if they are in the same tribe, they don't stay together all the time. Many herders will break away from the tribe. Alone or with several families, they go to a certain place to graze. The murderers were poisonous snakes and wolves of the steppe, who shamelessly slaughtered their barbarian brothers, stole cattle and sheep and wealth, and then fled. After coming to the grassland, the people and things I came into contact with all felt the uprightness and kindness of the barbarians. It was only at this moment that I realized that evil, like justice, has nothing to do with race or region, but is hidden deep in everyone's heart. ”

"People began to bury the dead silently. Walking among the ruins, I saw the body of a girl. She was about eleven or twelve years old, and she was running hard before she died. With open arms, it seems to want to hide something. A few steps away, an even younger child also collapsed in a pool of blood, a feathered arrow stuck in his chest. The girl must have tried to protect her brother, but the butchers had no mercy. I crouched down and tried to carry the bodies of the two children to the dug grave, when suddenly the girl's fingers trembled slightly. I exclaimed, and hurriedly pulled out the medicine bag next to me to check the girl's injuries. ”

"The campfire was blazing, and Daddy Boritt had twice as many soldiers on duty as usual, but no one slept. Qin Fu stared at the fire pond with a pale face, this young Qianguo had never had such an experience, and there were always some things that he could not forget in his life in the process of growing up. The barbarian girl was lying on a makeshift stretcher, with a fatal knife wound on her back, and it was a miracle that she had survived until now. Tonight, it was still a difficult ghost gate for her. I silently prayed to God that my child would be safe. ”

"In my impression, this place should already belong to the sphere of influence of the Great Qian Empire, and the cavalry troops of the Great Qian Empire should often haunt here to provide protection for the tribes here, but the facts I saw shattered my previous thoughts. I tactfully inquired about Daddy Boritt and some of the others, but I was surprised by the answer: apart from a few important large cities, there were hardly any Qianguo troops stationed on the grasslands, and even in those large cities, Qianguo troops were pitifully few, let alone protected the inhabitants here. The emperor of the Great Qian Empire only nominally retained the right to rule the land, but in reality it was in a state of anarchy. I think the Russian Empire has the ability and the obligation to change the status quo and make the people here happy. ”

Lin Yiqing closed the diary in his hand, looked at the Russian in front of him, and smiled slightly, "Your writing is good, you can be a writer." ”

Dusayev raised the corners of his mouth, spread his hands, and made a gesture of indifference.

"I didn't expect your Excellency to be fluent in Russian." "You can read my diary." ”

"It's not that hard, just like catching you, it's not that hard." Lin Yiqing turned his head and looked at Xingyue Liuli and a few white-clothed ninjas, "If you want to be clever, it may be useful to the Qianguo Mansion, but for my people, it is of no use." ”

"I understand." Dusayev smiled, "So I'm not going to play any tricks in front of you now, if you have any questions, just say hello, I will answer them." ”

"Well, I don't want to use those medieval punishments against you, such as cutting off your fingers section by section, leaving some patterns on your body with a soldering iron, lest you call us barbarians." Lin Yiqing looked at him, "I like to deal with smart people, but let me state in advance, what you say must be the truth, if you lie, I will make you regret being born in this world." ”

"I understand." The Russian nodded.

"Are you a Tatar?" Lin Yiqing asked.

"Yes." The Russian nodded, "Kalmyks, to be exact." ”

"What department in Russia are you employed in?"

"The Ministry of Finance of the Russian Empire, of course, is secret, and if you protest to the Russian Minister on this basis, they will not pay attention to it, because they do not know that there are people like us in the Ministry of Finance. The Ministry of Finance will not admit it either. ”

"How long have you been in the East to spy on intelligence?"

"Five years."

"What is your main job?"

"Collect all kinds of intelligence in Central Asia, Siberia and the Far East. Provided to the Imperial Government of Russia for reference. ”

"How does the Russian Imperial Government intend to incorporate these regions into its territory?"

"I don't know. Like everyone else, I am only responsible for gathering and collating information, and do not make specific recommendations, and I do not know what kind of policies and methods the Imperial Government will adopt. ”

"Hehe, I'm afraid you didn't tell the truth this time, right?"

Lin Yiqing stared at the Russian's eyes and sneered.

"It's useless for me to say whether I'm telling the truth or not, you have to use your own intellect to judge." Dusayev smiled calmly. Looking at Lin Yiqing, "If you have to say that I know, I can't help it, I really can't provide any useful advice, and the imperial government has not given me such power to control these places." ”

"Hehe, if it were someone else, I might believe your set of statements, but I'm a person who values evidence." Lin Yiqing smiled and waved his hand. A ninja stepped forward and placed a small box in front of him and opened it.

See this box. Dusayev's face changed suddenly.

This box, before he left, had been buried in a very secret place, but he didn't expect it to fall into Lin Yiqing's hands!

"You won't be unfamiliar with the stuff here, will you?" Lin Yiqing said, opened the box, took out the contents one by one, and put them on the table in front of the Russians.

It was a thick stack of blank letters of appointment in Russian with a seal, a bronze seal, and a bag of gold rubles.

"Your method is to make extensive contact with the tribal chiefs and chiefs of these regions, to preach to them that Russia can provide protection, to buy them with money, and to appoint them Russian official posts in the name of the Russian government, so that they may break away from the state and join Russia." Lin Yiqing picked up a blank letter of appointment and looked at it, glancing at Dusayev, "Am I right?" ”

"I don't know what you're talking about, these things have nothing to do with me, they don't belong to me, they don't belong to the Russian government." Dusayev said.

"You have come into contact not only with the leaders and leaders of various tribes on the steppe, but in fact your hand has also reached into the interior of the Qianguo, like gangs and rebels in various places, and there are not a few people who accept Russian money and official positions." Lin Yiqing stared at Dusayev closely, "You actually know it very well in your heart. ”

"So what?" Dusayev's face turned a little pale, but he looked at Lin Yiqing and suddenly burst out laughing, "What if you find this now?" Notify the government of Qianguo and take action? What can they do to us with those stupid guys? You think if you catch me, it's all over? ”

"Hehe, you finally admit it." Lin Yiqing smiled and put the things on the table back into the box.

"So what? Let me tell you the truth, not only in the Far East and Central Asia, but also in Tibet, Turkestan (referring to Xinjiang), Mongolia, and in various provinces in the Yellow River Valley
