Chapter 4 Mobei
Wu Xing and Zhao Jun walked away from the rest range of the horse gang and settled down on a grassy slope.
"Ah Jun, we are also familiar with each other, take the liberty to ask, where are you from, you are not very old, why did you come to Northern Xinjiang alone?" Zhao Jun was silent for a moment, and then spoke: "The people of Surabaya County and Pei County, our brothers and sisters are the only ones at home, and they committed an accident at the beginning of the year, so they fled all the way here, wanting to join the army to clear their name and regain their freedom. ”
Wu Xing nodded, indicating that he understood, but he was puzzled: "Surabaya County? But where is the junction of Qi and Chu? ”
"Exactly." Zhao Jun nodded, the black punishment was before the Qin Emperor unified the world, and he left the Central Plains, and it was normal not to know.
"Time flies so fast, I didn't expect the Qin State to unify the world after all, but it's a sigh" Wu Xing seems to be a little nostalgic for his homeland, but now the country is not a country.
In the end, Wu Xing turned to Zhao Jun and said: "As far as I know, it is not difficult to make meritorious service in the frontier to clear the charge, and with your martial arts, it is not a problem to behead and make meritorious service." But in order to restore the free body, it is not easy to obtain a certain knighthood if you remove the labor force.
Nowadays, I have heard that the Qin Dynasty unified the world, most of them were strict with the law, and the forced labor was increased, even if you regain your freedom, I am afraid that you will not be comfortable.
I don't know, have you ever considered staying in Mobei, with your martial arts, sooner or later there will be great achievements in Mobei, riding a horse across Mobei, wouldn't it be happy. ”
At this time, Wu Xing thought that Zhao Jun had killed eight Huns in a row before, and he didn't see what the last move was, but he was sure that Zhao Jun was by no means as simple as it seemed.
After Zhao Jun heard this, his heart moved, but he still spoke: "If you are unified today, the world is also the world of Great Qin, and after all, you will be exiled in Mobei, and you will not be allowed to return to your hometown." ”
In two short sentences, Zhao Jun's ambition was expressed, and Wu Xing's face changed after hearing it, and finally he said with some vicissitudes and helplessness: "It seems that Ah Jun is a person with great ambitions, and he is right, although Mobei is vast and free, but after all, it is a couple in the world, and it can't hold a real dragon."
Although I have been able to get by in the frontier in the past few years, I am also a little tired of it, the older people get, the more homesick they become, and the fallen leaves will eventually return to the roots, that is, the stars, and always pestering me to go back to the Central Plains, but after all, I can't leave these hundreds of brothers. ”
After hearing this, Zhao Jun nodded, this is understandable.
"Leader Wu, I heard Xiaoxing say that you are also one of the best horse gangs in the grassland, why were you chased and killed this time, and the Huns were involved?" Zhao Jun couldn't help but ask in the end.
Hearing this, Wu Xing's expression moved: "This is also what I want to tell you, do you know the distribution of forces in this Mobei?" ”
"I want to hear about it."
Wu Xing pondered for a moment and said: "Mobei is the north of the Great Wall, at the junction with the Northern Xiongnu, because there are business trips from the Xiongnu to the south and the Central Plains to the north, so the wealth is endless.
In the Central Plains, there have been wars for several years, and there are not many people in exile in Mobei, so there are also many horse bandits here.
As you must know, I was also a horse bandit at the beginning, and there were many people under me. It was only later that when it became bigger, it was time to become a horse gang, mainly to escort merchants, or sell horses, or buy Central Plains commodities and sell them to the Huns.
And the ones who can be on an equal footing with me are the other two horse gangs, and the three of us are the biggest forces in Mobei.
However, because of business problems, it has not been very harmonious, but it is only hindered by the overall situation, so the general territory is divided, and the three parties in the east and west are each based on one road, and we are in the middle, and the two families are in the east and west respectively, and they are usually harmonious.
It's just that this time, the Zhou family horse gang actually crossed the line to fish for my business, and after I knew about it in advance, I personally brought people out, taught them a lesson, and snatched the business back.
However, I didn't expect them to be unwilling, and dispatched most of the men, including colluding with a Xiongnu tribe, to hunt me down, it seems that they want to take the opportunity to swallow me.
And I've only brought out half of the people this time, so just go back to the racecourse first, and talk after resting. ”
"I see, the leader should be careful." After listening to this, Zhao Jun finally understood, but he didn't expect the situation in Mobei to be so complicated.
Wu Xing smiled on his face at this time, and said arrogantly and proudly: "Don't worry, on the grassland, they want to catch up with my Wujia Horse Gang, it was a dream, although I don't know, why they found our traces so quickly this time."
But I've already asked the skinny monkeys to deal with the cover-ups, and we'll be at the horse farm in two or three days at most, and then we'll rely on the horse farm's defenses, and they'll have no chance.
Hmph, when I figure out the situation, I'm looking for them to settle the score. ”
Zhao Jun nodded after hearing this, the Wujia Horse Gang has been able to crisscross Mobei for so many years, whether it is strength and connections, it is definitely not weaker than the Zhou Family's Horse Gang, he can invite a tribe of Huns to help, and the Wu family must be able to.
It's just that Zhao Jun always feels that something is wrong, but he can't say it, but it's not his business, what do he want to do.
When Wu Xing and Zhao Jun returned, the horse gang was about to set off, all the way to the southeast, and the horse farm was in that direction.
Along the way, Wu Xing and Xu De walked in front and were responsible for leading the entire team, and the big bear and the thin monkey were responsible for exploring the way and hiding the traces, but every time the two of them met Zhao Jun, they didn't have a good face to look at.
Zhao Jun didn't want to do much, so he walked in the middle of the horse team, but Wuxing always came to pester him to talk about the Central Plains, in fact, Zhao Jun even had a limited understanding of this era, so how could he talk about it, and he would be exposed.
Therefore, he can only pick up some general things and tell them briefly, but Miss Wu is not a foolish person, she likes to break the casserole and ask the end, always with a pair of curious and bright big eyes, and then from the mouth with small dimples, all kinds of questions keep popping up.
In the end, Zhao Jun couldn't bear it anymore, so he could only tell him some stories from his previous life, or interesting stories, and finally even 100,000 whys, as well as Journey to the West, moved out, which satisfied the appetite of the chick.
However, since then, he himself has been miserable, and Wuxing almost stuck next to Zhao Jun all the way, constantly listening to stories.
The harmful Zhao Jun Spit Star didn't know how many things were wasted, and every time the big bear passed by, he threw a very hostile gaze at Zhao Jun, but he was ignored by Zhao Jun.
Da Xiong wanted to come over to talk to Wuxing and divert Wuxing's attention, but every time he was scolded by Wuxing, he was bloody, and even mocked Zhao Jun, he didn't dare to face Wuxing, otherwise he would definitely be attacked by Wuxing.
It was already noon when he crossed an unusually tall hillside on this day, and Wuxing said to Zhao Jun happily: "Brother Ajun, we will be home by tomorrow afternoon at the latest, haha." ”
Hearing Wu Xing say this, Zhao Jun was in a better mood, and when he arrived at the horse farm, he could go to the border army.
It's just that at this moment, suddenly Zhao Jun felt some tremors on the ground, and his face became puzzled.
And at this moment, the thin monkey who was responsible for hiding the traces in the back suddenly looked anxious, rode a horse and galloped over, and said in a panic to the black torture in front: "Chief, it's not good, the people of the Zhou family horse gang have caught up, and there are also the people of the Huns." ”
Wu Xing was obviously shocked when he heard this, including the face of the big bear next to him, how could he catch up? They all wanted to ask what happened to the thin monkey, and they actually let them touch the traces.
It's just that Xu De next to him opened his mouth and asked at this time: "Monkey, how many of them are there?" ”
The thin monkey hurriedly said: "See clearly, there are more than 900 people in total, and more than 100 of them are Huns." ”
It is almost twice as large as their horse gang, and the faces of the people in the nearby Wujia horse gang have also changed, and the combat power of the Xiongnu is much higher than them, and more than 100 people can be worth more than 200 people.
"Immediately prepare to meet the enemy." Wu Xing opened his mouth and shouted: "Brothers, this time the people of the Zhou family want to rob us of our finances, and they also collude with the Huns to wipe us out.
This breath must not be bearable, since they are here, then we must teach them a good lesson, fight to the death, and also repel them. ”
"Fight to the death! Fight to the death! ”
More than 500 people drew their swords on the horse and shouted, which Mobei horse bandit didn't pin his head to the waistband of his trousers and lick blood from the tip of the knife all day long, so he was fierce and brave, and he was not afraid of death at all.
So, more than 500 horse gang members quickly lined up in formation, and the murderous aura gradually flourished, and Wu Xing and the others all rode horses and stood in front.
Zhao Jun still agrees with the arrangement of the black punishment, such a close distance, blindly escaping will only hit morale, and the black punishment is obviously a set of the army, trained on the horse gang, the formation of more than 500 people is also reasonable, at least under the charge, you can exert a few more layers of power.
"Ah Jun, the war will start later, and I will trouble you to help me take care of Xiaoxing." At this time, Wu Xing turned around and said to Zhao Jun, who was left behind.
Zhao Jun looked at it, and Wuxing, who was riding a horse and followed him, said, "Leader, don't worry." ”
"Dad, be careful yourself, don't worry about me, I'll definitely teach those people a good lesson later." Wuxing is very sensible.
Wu Xing nodded with satisfaction, and said boldly: "Okay, haha, it is worthy of being my daughter." ”
At this time, everyone couldn't help but clench the sword in their hands on the horse, and their eyes were firmly fixed on the west.
Soon after, a chaotic sound of horses' hooves came, and I saw more than 900 horsemen galloping to the west, armed with sharp swords, all wearing red scarves on their heads, as markers, and their expressions were fierce.
Zhao Jun also discovered that among the more than 900 cavalry, there were obviously more than 100 people dressed as Huns, and there were two leaders in the middle, one Huns and one Central Plains.
More than 900 people had superb riding skills, and when they saw that the black punishment was ready, they waved their hands and all stopped.
"Haha, you are interested in black punishment, it seems that today you know that you will die." The leader dressed in the Central Plains laughed wildly.
Wu Xing said disdainfully: "Hmph, I didn't expect you Zhou Xiong to be so shameless, not to mention crossing the border to loot goods, but also colluding with the Huns, really embarrassing us Central Plains people, you can draw out any way." ”
At this time, Wu Xing had a cold face next to him, and said to Zhao Jun: "This person is the most annoying, he is the second leader of the Zhou family's horse gang, his eldest brother is Zhou Kuang, and he wanted me to marry Zhou Xiong last time, which is really shameless." ”
Zhao Jun nodded after hearing this, his brows furrowed again, it seems that the Zhou family has been plotting to seize the Wu family's horse gang for a long time, this time it is by no means accidental, maybe it is part of their plan.
"Hmph, old thing, I think you're looking for death, brothers, rushing, slaughtering them, robbing them of their goods, stepping into their horse farm, haha."
Zhou Xiong immediately swung his sword and rushed, not taking the Wujia Horse Gang in his eyes at all. The leader of the Huns, also waved his hand and rushed over with the people of the Zhou Family's Horse Gang.
In an instant, more than nine hundred cavalrymen, neighing and roaring, with sharp swords in hand, rushed over as soon as they urged the horses.
Zhao Jun clenched the sword in his hand with some vigilance, but also some excitement and expectation, is this an ancient war?
