Chapter Eighty-Nine: Encountering a Small Enemy
There were 200 people who came back with Xikten, all of whom were sturdy Oroqen men. They were all on horseback, with bows and arrows on their shoulders, and hunting forks in their hands. They were accompanied by hundreds of reindeer.
The reindeer are not empty, the plough behind the reindeer is filled with animal skins, herbs, ginseng, reishi, bear paws, bear bile, tiger bones, dried meat, and so on.
"It's a gift for you, because we're friends!" Sikten said to Li Guo.
Li Guo was very moved, he didn't know how much these things were worth, but these things must be good things. And Liang Shiyin, who is very knowledgeable, secretly said to Li Guo that these things are very valuable.
Although Li Guo wanted to make money and wanted to go crazy, but in the face of such a sincere Xiketeng, he couldn't help but be righteous, so he said to Xiketeng, "These gifts are too valuable, Xiketeng, I will help you sell them when the time comes, and we will all make money together!" β
The Oroqen people make a living by breeding reindeer and hunting, and they don't value money.
So Sikten shook his head and said, "If you send it to you, it's not a big deal, but we are short of salt, food, and cloth, if you have it, give me some." β
"No problem!" Li Guo agreed in one bite, and these people are simple-hearted and will not forget their righteousness for profit like businessmen, so Li Guo will definitely not deceive them. But no matter how you calculate it, this kind of primitive tribal exchange method, Li Guo is sure to make a profit.
Seeing Li Guo so refreshing, the Oroqen men took him as a confidant, and they couldn't stop stretching out their thumbs, vying to be friends with Li Guo. Li Guo was a little embarrassed.
So, Li Guo and Liang Shiyin packed up, but in fact, there was nothing left, and even the horses they were riding were given by the Oroqen people. He took Xi Keten and others and walked towards Zhangjiakou in a majestic manner.
Along the way, Li Guo and the others did not take the main road, because as soon as they saw the outfits of the Oroqen people, the army of Houjin would inevitably not start a war against the Oroqen people.
Fortunately, I was dusty all the way, and I almost arrived at Zhangjiakou, and I didn't meet Houjin Bing.
Got up early that day, seeing that there was still a day's journey from Zhangjiakou, Li Guo and everyone had breakfast and were about to move forward. But he saw a puff of smoke and dust in the distance, and a group of cavalry rushed over.
Li Guo looked at it from a distance and sighed, it was the Houjin soldiers who came.
Xi Keten and the Oroqen men have long been ready, they and Hou Jin are enemies, they want to fight.
Liang Shiyin dissuaded Xi Keteng and the others, "Maybe they don't have malicious intentions, wait for Jin Bing to stop, I'll go and tell them, just say that you are our friends of the Eight Great Families in Shanxi, I don't think you will be embarrassed." "Liang Shiyin's idea is good, but it is naΓ―ve.
There were about 200 Houjin soldiers who rushed over, and they were led by a Niu Lu Ezhen. This Niu Lu Ezhen originally led a team to be stationed in Hohhot, but an unexpected discovery made this Niu Lu Ezhen pleasantly surprised.
Therefore, he did not ask the leader above, Jiala Ezhen, but left the garrison without permission, and rushed to Shengjing with his men at a gallop, and he wanted to personally present what he found to the Great Khan Emperor Taiji, and he knew that he would definitely be rewarded by the Emperor Taiji.
Niu Lu really touched the heavy package behind the saddle, and thought to himself, it was really lucky.
However, as he was moving forward, a team of people appeared in front, and this Niu Lu really looked at it, and said to the left and right, "Those people in front are Oroqen?" β
Left and right replied, "Exactly!" β
The Houjin soldiers were invincible on the grassland, and this Niu Lu was really rampant, shouting "Release the arrow!" Then rush over with a knife! β
Although the Oroqen people had already prepared, they were caught off guard by a burst of arrows, and they shot down more than a dozen Oroqen men. Fortunately, the accuracy of the Houjin soldiers was biased during the gallop, otherwise the loss would have been greater.
Sikten was furious and shouted the order, "Release the arrow!" β
The bows and arrows of the Oroqen people were large and heavy, powerful and fierce, and the range was long, plus they stopped and shot forward steadily, and after more than a hundred years, the Jin soldiers were shot off their horses.
After that, Jin's Niu Lu was really anxious to break through the Oroqen, so he continued to rush forward and shoot arrows regardless of it. An arrow actually stuck to Liang Shiyin's hair and passed through.
Liang Shiyin already felt guilty that the Oroqen people listened to her words and were shot to death by more than a dozen people, and she didn't feel angry at this time, "It's really damned, these Houjin soldiers are so rude." β
At this time, Xi Keteng was holding a hunting fork and had already led the Oroqen people to rush up.
Li Guo guarded Liang Shiyin in place, not wanting her to be hurt. But I saw a Houjin leader sneaky, cable-pulled riding a horse, alone, wanting to make a detour.
On a whim, Li Guo instructed Liang Shiyin to "stay where you are, don't run around." Then he hurried to the Houjin soldier.
Liang Shiyin naturally refused to obey, and chased after Li Guo.
Li Guo and Liang Shiyin had a hot head, and chased after that Niu Lu Ezhen, but they didn't realize that the two of them didn't have any weapons except for the small dagger in Liang Shiyin's arms. Li Guo's original waist knife had long been lost, and Sikten had given him a hunting fork, but Li Guo was disgusted with it and useless.
As a result, two bare-handed men frantically chased a Houjin soldier with a big knife.
Houjin Bing was driven in a hurry, and when he saw that he couldn't escape, he reined in his horse and turned to kill Li Guo and Liang Shiyin.
Li Guo touched his waist, it was broken, Li Guo suddenly found that he had no weapon, so he reined in the horse.
However, Liang Shiyin, a little girl, had never been in battle, in the spirit of a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers and tigers, she rushed over with a small dagger, and she wanted to question Hou Jin Bing, why didn't she ask the innocent and shoot the Oroqen people when they met!
But Liang Shiyin forgot that this is the battlefield, and the battlefield is all about you and me, and what you play is conspiracy, but there is no room for bargaining.
In a knife light, Liang Shiyin's hair was cut off a large lock, if it weren't for Liang Shiyin's quick reaction, I am afraid that it would not be just the hair that was cut off.
Liang Shiyin was in danger, and Li Guo rushed over. Li Guo is not much wrong with this person, and he loves to be a hero. Moreover, during this time, he did have feelings for Liang Shiyin, and he was also worried about Liang Shiyin's safety.
Li Guo shouted, "Shiyin, run!" β
And that Niu Lu looked fierce, and he was already holding a big knife and slashing at Li Guo.
Hide!
It's too late!
"Your grandma's!"
Li Guo roared, jumped up from the horse, flew over, and hugged the Niu Lu, who was really caught off guard by Li Guo, and the two of them rolled on the ground.
Liang Shiyin was in a hurry, and got off the horse with a dagger, wanting to help Li Guo, but looking at the two people rolling on the ground, she didn't know what to do.
At this time, Liang Shiyin suddenly found that the Houjin soldier picked up the knife again.
Yes~! Liang Shiyin's head was blank, and in his own scream, he stabbed hard, and actually stabbed the dagger into the eye socket of Niu Lu's forehead, only to see the color of white, black, and red spraying out along the dagger.
And Liang Shiyin used so much force that the dagger was firmly fixed on the head of this Niu Lu's forehead, and he couldn't pull it out.
That Niu Lu's forehead was really painful, and he tried his best to throw Li Guo aside at once.
Li Guo was about to pounce, but he saw that Niu Lu's forehead was really convulsed a few times, his body stiffened, and he was already stabbed to death by Liang Shiyin.
Liang Shiyin's body was splashed with the blood of that Niu Lu's forehead, both happy that Li Guo was okay, but also afraid of killing for the first time, he couldn't help but be happy and scared, and cried loudly.
Li Guo hurriedly stepped forward and patted Liang Shiyin's body, "It's okay, look how brave you are, you killed the enemy and saved my life." β
Liang Shiyin sobbed aggrievedly and thought, this is the first time I have killed someone, but saving him is worth it!
And Li Guo suddenly pushed Liang Shiyin away and asked, "Shiyin, what is that?" β
