Text Chapter 157, allies with their hearts
Xiao Ye, who bypassed the eastern foothills of the Altai Mountains and hurried west on the steppe, had a thousand scattered Western Wedge Cavalry as a guard, but they did not encounter any accidents, and finally saw the villages of the Haixi people fifteen days after their departure.
There were scouts who went out five miles ago, and they had already met with the sergeant who was on guard from the Haixi people, and with the seal letter of the hundred households, they contacted the matter of entering the village, and Xiao Ye also left the Xiwedge He cavalry on the grassland outside the village with interest.
Although it was already a bitterly cold November, because of the caravan from the south, the Haixi village was lively for a while.
When the village chief of Aura saw his granddaughter again, who had been separated for more than two years, he couldn't help but squeeze the folds on his old face, and his eyebrows and eyes were laughing with joy.
In the compound of the old man's house of the village head, five fully loaded carts and more than a dozen pack horses, with the help of the Haixi people, quickly unloaded the goods.
Warm silk short coats, delicate vanity mirrors, lighters that can shoot flames with a bang, and refined salt as white as snow, and other novelty goods, will never satisfy the Haixi people's willingness to buy.
Even if these things are resold at a higher price, they can also make Haixi people get rich returns.
Tea and silk are also the favorites of Haixi people, and Haixi people who want to buy them have already started queuing outside the hospital.
Under the introduction of the two elders, Qin Shishi and a Haixi merchant decided on the price of these goods in a serious manner, and began the next round of negotiation and grain procurement, and even the blister copper smelted by the Haixi people from the mountains was also purchased.
The exchange of goods can only last for a long time, but it is just a vigorous sale to collect money, and Xiao Ye disdains to carry gold and silver on his back.
Of course, Haixi people are quite satisfied with Xiao Ye's large-scale purchase, and the price will be much cheaper.
Just when Qin Shi was negotiating the price with the Haixi people, Xiao Ye sat in the meeting hall of the old man's house and met Lena's father, the leader of the Claudian detachment.
Oh, now it should be called Legion Captain and Archon of Claudius; With several successful transactions with Xiao Ye, the Haixi people successively obtained more than 500 fires/guns, and successfully defended the Tatar cavalry from attacking the village.
In front of Xiao Ye, he confessed that his subordinates were full of twenty hundred-man teams, although in terms of strength, there was still a big gap between a standard legion, but he now had a lot of confidence, and he could build his legion into an armed legion that could fight well in a short period of time.
For his confidence, Xiao Ye is happy to see.
The use of slaves as soldiers in the legion has a long history, and with sharp firearms, Claudie also began to follow the rules, and gave the dagger shield to the slave soldiers with peace of mind, and buried himself in preparation.
Unlike what the village chiefs and their elders had assumed, Claudius was reluctant to travel long distances to return to the West, where he had great power, and how could he be willing to be vassals of an empire he had never met.
Starting from the ground under his feet to expand outward, it is his wish to obtain a vast territory.
Therefore, he needs someone to continue to support him, and Xiao Ye is the best choice, who allows Xiao Ye to come up with a large number of firearms, as well as those practical materials.
Naturally, as the messenger between Xiao Ye and Claudius, Lena and Grandpa had a conversation, so she sat in the middle and kept translating Ming and Roman.
Although Xiao Ye is still Claudie's son-in-law, in the conversation between the two, Xiao Ye just smiled faintly in the face of his imposing father-in-law, and said his thoughts one by one.
"We have a shortage of food and minerals, we can exchange goods, and we can only use a small part of the supply of firearms, and the distance is too long,"
"Of course, if you have a Ming here, well, it's a Ming slave, I can give priority to exchanging fire/guns, ten people for one fire/gun, one Ming slave for ten projectiles, men and women, young and old,"
"If we need your military support, we can pay for the use of firearms, and there is a pension for the casualties of officers and soldiers,"
Xiao Ye's words, Claudie listened quietly, and waited until Xiao Ye finished speaking, and was silent for a moment, then raised his equally blue eyes and looked at this cheap son-in-law kindly; To be honest, he didn't recognize Xiao Ye's son-in-law at all before, but now it is the times, and it is a miracle that he can face Xiao Ye squarely.
At least that's what Lena thinks.
"Grain and minerals can be traded, you can talk to those merchants, they are happy to sell the backlog of grain and minerals, and sell them to those rich wolves on the grassland, and they can't exchange much for leather goods,"
This year, there was a bumper grain harvest in Haixi Village, and Claudius was worried that the price of grain was being depressed by Tatar merchants.
"I want to hear about fair trade," Claudie's emphasis made Xiao Ye smile and nod, that's what he wanted.
"It's a good idea to exchange Mingren slaves for fire/guns, so do you want other slaves," Seeing Xiao Ye nodding lightly, Claudius suddenly became interested, "The price is the same?" ”
"Yes, but all you need is to wait, wait for the next time my caravan arrives,"
"Okay, as for the minerals, I can reduce the price by 10%, as long as you want, I can supply it here," Claudie grinned with satisfaction, rubbing Xiao Ye's filial piety with his revolver.
Just looking at the bright copper-cased bullets, he realized that this gun was very different from the short fire/gun that was traded before, and those stupid craftsmen in the village still couldn't imitate the fire/gun, and it was really impossible not to buy it.
Seeing that Claudius was very happy, Xiao Ye saw the opportunity and said, "I brought three hundred fire/guns this time as a gift to you, and the supporting projectiles are complete,"
"Okay, okay, on the mine in the back mountain, except for the two courtyards, you can watch it at will," Claudy, who was overjoyed, took out a bronze medal with satisfaction and handed it to Xiao Ye.
The most reciprocating gift, as long as Xiao Ye values the mineral materials, he can easily take out tens of thousands of catties.
In the evening, Claudie and Village Chief Aura held a welcome banquet in the public house to welcome the arrival of Xiao Ye and his party.
With a blazing bonfire in the compound, the Haicynian and the guards and guards sat on the ground staggered, holding large pieces of cooked meat, holding large glasses of ale wine, and watching a group of blonde girls dancing around the fire amid the sound of the lyre.
Naturally, a few of the strong officers under Claudy, after a few glasses of wine, challenged the knife them bare-chested, who made them all dressed in black and guard the door of the hall with an indifferent face, looking so dazzling.
Standing on the steps of the hall, the knife turned his face to see a strong man who was a head taller than himself, and then looked at the smiling hundred households inside, shook his head helplessly, reached out to grab the pillar beside him, and tore off a piece of wood.
The hardwood pillars, painted with several layers of tung oil, were like kraft paper, and the wood that had been torn off effortlessly was kneaded into sawdust in the hands of a knife, and the rope fell under his feet.
The wooden pillar with the mouth open, the white stubble, instantly shattered the self-confidence of the Haixi officer.
The Haixi officer, whose face was pale, simply retreated into the crowd, and from the several guards who were seated, he kindly picked a shorter guard and motioned to wrestle with him.
The other officers, not seeing the subtle movement of the knife, laughed and pulled a few black-clothed guards, wanting to show off their strength.
In the laughter of everyone, the guards in khaki uniforms were easily pressed to the ground by officers with wrestling skills, smiling and patting the ground, trying to admit defeat; Everyone has a good time, why bother to be serious, on the battlefield, it depends on who can shoot quickly and accurately.
But the black-clothed guards, who didn't see the eyes of the knife, let go of their hands and feet, and smashed the Haixi officer, who was taller than him, on the ground several times like a sack, causing everyone to applaud.
The Maiden Haixi blonde girls suddenly set their eyes on the black-clothed guards, and began to think about the targets they valued through the noisy crowd.
In the hall, Xiao Ye and a circle of elders frequently raised their glasses, plus Claudi with two henchmen, who also stepped forward to invite drinks from time to time, and their faces were already red from drinking, chewing a piece of meat tendon in their mouths, and they couldn't sit steadily.
The knife stepped into the hall lightly, walked behind Xiao Ye, and whispered, "My lord, those Haixi people, oh, it's Haixi women, pulling our guards, don't you see?" ”
"Nonsense, people have good intentions, you are all men, you can't even handle a woman, and the official's guards are so soft? Go out, you can't get them, and you will go to Ah Man as a cavalryman,"
Xiao Ye, who was a little dizzy, simply drove the knife away, until he couldn't drink anymore, and then went to the guest room to rest with Lina's support.
And the guests who were able to successfully pour them down, the elders of Haixi Village, as well as the head of Claudie, were also satisfied and went back to their respective homes and fell asleep.
At three o'clock in the morning, Xiao Ye got up in a daze, took away the white arm on his body, covered Lina with a thin blanket, and spit out a strong smell of wine to dress and wash.
At the door of the guest room, a knife with a solemn face stood upright, and there were ten black-clothed guards on the side, although their expressions were still indifferent, the flashing eyes of these people indicated the irritability in their hearts.
Not far from the black-clothed guards, a dozen or so blonde girls, all with blushing faces and thin linen shawls, stood there silently, their blue eyes staring at their lovers.
Even the pro-guards have some Haixi girls.
"Squeak," the door of the guest room opened, and when Xiao Ye's leather boots stepped out of the threshold, the knife shook unnaturally on his face, and then fell to one knee on the ground; Hula, the guards standing on both sides knelt down with their rifles, their heads pressed lower than the other.
"Well, what are you guys?" The dazzling sunlight made Xiao Ye blink his eyes a few times, and then looked at the girls on both sides, as well as those girls not far away, and his face sank.
"Knives, what's going on?" Xiao Ye's questioning voice came from the top of his head, and the knife didn't dare to slack off, and replied loudly, "Lord Hui, last night my lord didn't let me wait to embarrass you, otherwise I would be sent to be a cavalryman, so, so, eleven of my subordinates, I got them,"
The knife that has always spoken with confidence, the last half of the sentence has been extremely weak, if it weren't for Xiao Ye's strong ears, he wouldn't know what he was talking about.
"Si," Xiao Yeden gasped and glared at the knife in disbelief, "Duh, dare to talk nonsense, be careful of military law,"
"My lord, this is what you said personally, and your subordinates didn't talk nonsense," Seeing that Xiao Ye directly denied the account, the knife was also anxious, and he shouted with a stalk on his neck, "The second lady was also there at that time, she heard it,"
Xiao Ye and the knife's argument, those Haixi girls couldn't understand, but the knife's red face, they could see clearly, these barefoot girls, hula lala, surrounded them, standing beside their lover, babbling loudly to Xiao Ye, looking at the expression seemed to be angrily reprimanding this unkind chief.
The station of the pro-guard team in the east was also in chaos, and several guys led by Qin Shi and Hao Yongliang, each of them was torn and pulled by the Haixi girls, and walked towards Xiao Ye's guest room.
The beauty trick of such a scene directly made Xiao Ye dumbfounded, his face was dark for a while, and he gasped and glared at the three unfortunate leaders.
Qin Shi and Hao Yongliang were very eye-catching, and when they saw the knife like this, they simply knelt on the ground, and the girl next to them naturally knelt beside them.
In the noisy courtyard, he soon knelt on the ground, only Xiao Ye on the steps, scolding and laughing, crossed his waist, scratching his head and turning back and forth.
Also, the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, he married one, and he gave the order in a daze, complaining that his subordinates were reckless. Men should be responsible for doing things, and what can they do if they admit it.
Raising his eyes to look at the corner of the compound, Xiao Ye glanced slightly, and quickly retracted his gaze, fortunately, he arranged Xiao Liuzi early, and he had been taking Hao Yongliang's artillery guards and night owl guards more than a dozen people, and closely guarded the two carriages wrapped in oilcloth, so that he had no chance to drink with the Haixi people.
Of course, the arms supply for their own use must be strictly guarded, which the Haixi people can understand, and they will not break the rules to harass them.
If Xiao Liuzi brings another Haixi woman to kneel in front of him, Xiao Ye will be really uncomfortable, and her sister will not stop if she doesn't make a fuss when she goes back; With a strong temperament like my sister, she will definitely die.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Ye waved his hand, "Let's get up, stand and talk,"
"Since other girls want to follow you, that's fine, whether it's a wife or a concubine, you can't treat others badly, go back and marry into the door," In desperation, Xiao Ye could only put things off and settle people, otherwise things would be big, and it would be difficult for them to even go back.
"Okay, worthy of being a Ming officer, do things quickly and simply," after the crowd, the village chief of Aura and Claudie, separated from the crowd, walked out, and shouted at Xiao Ye; They have been here for a while, just to see how Xiao Ye treats this kind of thing.
Fortunately, Xiao Ye did not lift his pants and left because of Lina, which indirectly won the respect of the Haixi people.
Of course, the village chief of Aura proposed to go to that small church and hold a wedding, but Xiao Ye unceremoniously refused, jokes, just do it last time, and it would be stupid if there was any more.
"According to my Ming customs, there is a matchmaker for marriage, and the official is their matchmaker, carry the sedan chair into the door, and the official will make proper arrangements," Xiao Ye, who was righteous, took out five spare rifles and three hundred rounds of ammunition, which was counted as the bride price of these Haixi girls.
As a result, another banquet was held in the public housing chamber, and the relationship between the two sides was celebrated to another level.
Until sunset, Xiao Ye, accompanied by Lina, once again began a closed-door discussion with the village chief of Aura and the commander of the Claudian army.
The guards selected a team of guards, led by the captain, to assist the Haixi Legion in the fire/gun drill until the next caravan arrived; The Haixi people will also pay 10,000 catties of crude ore materials, except for gold, silver and copper.
On the two sheets of white paper, the two sides wrote down the alliance and pressed their handprints; As an officer of the hundred households of the Ming Dynasty, the guard caravan under Xiao Ye's command had the obligation to rescue the Haixi Legion when it was in danger, and vice versa.
And the transaction between the two parties, both in terms of goods and price, must be superior to that of the other.
Of course, that is within the scope of ability, far water can't save the near thirst, and everyone's hearts are clear.
The next day, accompanied by the village chief of Ola, Xiao Ye went to the back mountain and watched the Haixi people's metal smelting workshop, as well as the mining site in the deep mountain.
The tungsten ore extracted from the copper ore smelted by the Haixi people was originally going to be resold to the Mughal merchants, but it was discovered by the sharp-eyed Xiao Ye, who directly asked for 10,000 catties, plus 10,000 catties of tin, and the rest was traded with goods, which also saved the Haixi people from being bought by the tile merchants at a low price.
As for the pig iron ingots, Xiao Ye glanced at them, he had no intention of buying them, and the village chief of Aura was not surprised, he felt that Xiao Ye should have better iron ore there, so he didn't care about the existence of this strategic material.
After more than ten days, the transaction was completed, Xiao Ye and his party were finally going to return, and they had been waiting outside the village for nearly half a month on Wedge Heha Mountain, which could be regarded as no longer chasing and fighting with the wandering Tartar cavalry.
The sparse snowflakes in the sky fell, hundreds of carts and hundreds of pack horses pulled out of the wall of the Haixi people, and the long brigade of men and horses slowly drove towards the depths of the grassland in the south.
At the door of the solid wall, Legion Commander Claudius held a telescope and watched Xiao Ye's figure disappear from sight.
"Commander, why don't you keep them, we have several chances," the henchman asked unwillingly, "That's one hundred and fifty guns, if we get it, our strength will be stronger,"
"No, I feel that this Ximen Xiao Ye may have more powerful means, but it has not been revealed, and he still maintains friendship before he finds out," the other henchman naturally disagreed with the practice of drying up and fishing.
Claudius, with an indifferent face, glanced at the cavalry spies running out of the Pegasus, turned back to the village, and the squeaky drawbridge was quickly pulled up.
He knew about the large scratches left by the knife on the pillar outside the public house that night, and he had quietly seen it with his own eyes, so he was not tempted by the temptation, for fear that Xiao Ye and they would make trouble in the village, and the disaster caused by the Tartars would be taken advantage of.
The eleven black-clothed guards seemed to be like wood and could not leave Xiao Ye, but Claudie could feel that once they broke out, everyone inside and outside the compound of the public house would not be able to escape the knife at their waists.
Capture the thief and capture the king first, he understands this truth better than anyone else, if something happens to him, it will be more than worth the loss.
Stomping, trampling, in the open space behind the wall, a group of cavalrymen in battle armor, holding brand-new breech-loading guns/guns and arquebuses, formed two squares in front of the commander of Claudi's regiment.
Two thousand fire/lancers, plus four thousand infantry, this is the true strength of Claudie, and the strength he tells Xiao Ye will always be less than the one he holds in his hands.
"Wait, when the Tartars catch up with them, we'll strike at once," Claudius ordered in a deep voice, holding the revolver at his waist and enjoying the cold snowflakes with his face up.
Having a strong ally makes it difficult to feel at ease, and having a weak but powerful ally makes people tempting, and the complex psychology of Captain Claudy's legion, Xiao Ye can't understand.
Whether it's quite a fisherman, or wants to add icing on the cake, it's just in the turn of Claudy's thoughts.
The team left Haixi Village, Lena and those Haixi girls sat in the carriage, Xiao Ye rode a war horse, and Qin Shi next to him changed his boldness in Haixi Village, muttering non-stop.
"My lord, you let us loosen the outside and tighten the inside, isn't it okay, the Haixi people shouldn't do it, they even gave us a lot of women,"
"I guess the adults are too cautious,"
"Maybe it's the adult's father-in-law, oh, that Claudian Legion Commander is embarrassed to attack his son-in-law, hehe, Legion Commander, Archon, this title is too majestic, or you will change it if you don't become an adult?"
Qin Shi's noise, Xiao Ye just smiled faintly when he heard it, what he thought in his heart was far more than what he saw in this product, for the sake of him fighting with him for the past few years, he nagged it, and he should listen to the birds.
"Peng, Peng," a mile behind him, there was the sound of gunshots from scouts calling the police.
The big hand holding the reins tightened, Xiao Ye shook his head vigorously, and let himself come to his senses, and less than fifty miles away from the Haixi village, the team was tracked by Tartar cavalry. Overhead, the cold wind swept through the snowflakes, and the temperature became colder and colder.
"Wedge Heha Mountain shrinks his forces and forms a formation," with an order, a thousand cavalry gathered near the convoy at the sound of a trumpet.
One hundred and ten carts formed a large circle, and the carts pulling the ore were facing the direction that the Tartars were chasing; The twenty or so girls who were in the carriage were placed next to Lena's carriage, guarded by guards with guns.
Rushing in the direction of the pursuers, the night owl guards and the personal guards stood in two rows, and the heavy machine guns and lightning guns also took off the heavy tarpaulin.
The galloping pursuers soon appeared in front of him, and with the news spit out by the heralds from time to time, Xiao Ye learned that the Tartar cavalry following behind had more than 4,000 people, and they should have come to find Ah Man and their bad luck.
Although it was a headwind, and it was difficult for Xuehua to even open his eyes, but in the roar of Qin Shi and Xiao Liuzi, regardless of the family guards, they hurriedly put on iron helmets, raised their guns, and began to load.
"Uh, uh," two loud brass flutes sounded, and the lightning cannon in the center of the ring position, with Hao Yongliang's gesture, fired the first shell.
"Boom, boom," the rapid-fire shells exploded again and again as they chased the cavalry arrows that rushed three miles away.
"All the same, all the same," Qin Shi, who was half-squatting on the carriage, began to strafe with a heavy machine gun, the muzzle of the machine gun spat out a long tongue of fire, and the hot bullet casings fell on the grass.
The lightning cannon and machine gun suddenly opened fire, directly scattering the Tartar pursuers, but the Tartar cavalry, which had spread out into two miles, still relentlessly divided into two groups and surrounded the carriage position from a distance.
As soon as the enemy dispersed, the lightning guns stopped firing, wasting shells to blow up a few horses, Hao Yongliang was not so arrogant, and even the heavy machine guns began to fire short bursts, no longer sweeping frantically.
The brass flute sounded rapidly, and the pursuers approached to three hundred paces, and the rifle fired, and when they got closer to more than a hundred paces, the fire/gun fired at the same time, "Bumper, bumper," "Bumper, bumper,"
Under the wind and snow, whether it is a gunner/gunner, or a rifleman, the accuracy is much worse than before, which gives the Tartars a great opportunity.
On the grassland where thin snowflakes fell, outside the circular carriage position, there were constantly Tartar cavalry falling off their horses, and war horses constantly screaming and falling to the ground, but most of the Tartar cavalry who came up like a tide, except for a group of cavalry to entangle Wedge Heha Mountain, had surrounded Xiao Ye's carriage position.
"Whoosh, whoosh," along with the wind, the wolf tooth arrows thrown from the arrows smashed into the position like raindrops, and the powerful impact force could make people stumble when they hit the body, and if they didn't shoot through the iron helmet, they would also make people dizzy.
Most of the sharp arrows that came from the cracks hit the guards and guards, and also pierced the cheeks of several guards.
The night owl guards, the personal guards, including the black-clothed guards, all wear protective clothing, no matter how strong the sharp arrows, as long as they are not like the crossbows guarding the city, basically people will not be injured, at most it will hurt for a while and a half.
But after the guard who was hit by a sharp arrow in the cheek, he fell to the ground on his back, life and death were fate, and the medical soldiers were not immortals, and the means of treatment were limited.
On the side defended by machine guns on the west, the Tartar cavalry avoided from a distance, but the other Tartars surrounded on three sides, their hideous faces were clearly visible, and even a few fast horses had already broken into the front of the carriage and were knocked over by a series of short fires/guns.
"Whoosh," when a powerful wolf's tooth arrow flew past Xiao Ye's forehead, and was snapped and held by him, Xiao Ye's eyes widened, "Knife,"
"The subordinate is here," replied with the knife of the rifle, and without looking back, he was looking for the guy who shot the hidden arrow.
"This official is watching here, you go and help them, let them see the methods of the black-clothed guards, don't be unconvinced all day long," with a cold order, the knife that had long been impatient suddenly tensed the muscles of the whole body.
"Old/Hu stays, the others split up," brandished his rifle, and with a loud roar of his knife, he rushed east with two guards; There, it was the most ferocious direction of the Tartar cavalry, and the sharp arrows came in waves, and the guards couldn't lift their heads.
After the three rifles ran out of bullets, the three strong men in black had already rushed to the back of the carriage, leaving their rifles behind, and the figure had already jumped high and jumped out of the carriage position in the face of the rain of arrows.
With his left arm in front of him, his knife and his right hand holding a revolver, he turned left and right and rushed closer to the Tartar cavalry, the muzzle of the gun raised, and the magazine kept rotating with the pull of the trigger.
Eight bullets were missed, and the three knives had already broken through the Tartars' horse team, and the leather boots under their feet slammed, and the figure turned back again, and quickly ran towards the carriage position, leaving behind under their feet were the earth-shattering thunders emitting white smoke.
"Boom, boom," the earth-shattering thunderbolts that exploded one after another not only disrupted the formation of the Tartars again, but also woke up those guards and guards, and they all felt out the earth-shattering thunder in the skin bag on their waists.
The relaxation of the past few days has made these guards and guards too relaxed, and they have not yet adapted to the situation in front of them.
When the knives lowered their heads and rushed back to the position, the dense earth-shattering thunder also flew out of the position and smashed into the Tartar cavalry with their scimitars held high.
When the dense explosions sounded, Xiao Ye knew that it was time for this battle to end.
An hour later, the gunfire and explosions stopped, and the Tartar pursuers retreated.
The snow was carried down by the cold wind, and the snowflakes that were getting bigger and bigger did not stop Xiao Ye; After cleaning the battlefield and resting for two hours, the convoy headed south again.
Seventeen guards were killed in battle, five were killed in the battle, fifty-eight were lightly and seriously wounded, two were lightly wounded by the guards, two hundred of the Wedge He cavalry were killed, and two out of eighty were wounded.
It took half of the time to count the register of the dead and collect the iron plates, as for those seizures, Xiao Ye let his subordinates clean them up, and those who didn't want to take them were given up on the spot.
A large square pit was dug in the meadow, and the brothers who had died in battle, whether Han Chinese or Wedge cavalry, were buried side by side, their faces covered with sheepskin coats.
After burying the pit, a dozen wedge-hee cavalrymen singing melodious tunes, took off their weapons and mounted barefoot, their cloaks scattered on the flat cemetery, driving their horses to gallop left and right, waving their hands high in the air, bidding farewell to the souls who did not want to leave.
In Haixi Village, the commander of the Claudian regiment received the express report of the spies, and his eyes suddenly stiffened, and the four thousand Tartar cavalry who were pursuing were actually killed and wounded by the defending carriage position, and nearly half of them were killed and wounded, and they retreated in embarrassment, is this true?
Under the watchful eyes of Claudie and several detachment leaders, the four Hercynian spies who returned one after another swore that what they saw could not be wrong; Of course, someone will go to the battlefield afterwards to reconfirm.
"Hey, it seems that my son-in-law has not revealed his true strength, and has reserved a hand for the commander of this legion," Claudie took off his pointed helmet and looked at the south with a complicated gaze, perhaps, his plan should be well modified.
An ally covered in thorns, then be lenient.
"The six sergeants left behind by Simon Xiao Ye are kind to food and daily life,"
