Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Ferris Ridge, the nest that flies on the grass, the car wind carries the steps of the grass to go up, and in the cold weather, it has become a lump of ice. The Tumut cavalry was preparing to attack the mountain, and if the remnants of the remaining troops were unwilling to surrender and resist, they would drive the captives who had just surrendered to attack the mountain.

Che Feng walked into the horse thief alone, smashed his stone-like head on the ground, held the hilt of the knife with his right hand, and shouted: "Surrender, join us; Resist, he is your fate! ”

More than fifty horse thieves looked at each other, and the audience was silent. It was too sudden, and the big boss led a large group of people down the mountain for most of the day, and when he came back, he only had one head left.

"In an hour, either you will go down the mountain, or we will attack the mountain!" Che Feng put down this sentence and turned away, and went to the thief's den on Zhai Zhe's order, and his heart was inevitably abrupt, and he forced himself to be calm when he went down the mountain so that his steps did not appear to be in a hurry.

Half an hour later, the horse thieves who had gone up the hill came down one by one, and from the top of the hill they could clearly see the scale of the attackers. The days of horse thieves are the same, and for most people it doesn't make much difference who they follow.

The terrain of Motianling is dangerous, close to the Tuoketuo grassland, and Princess Wulan is stationed here to facilitate the contact with the nomadic Tumuts, but this is not the old camp that Zhai Zhe wants, and it is too far away from killing Hukou.

As soon as the Tumut cavalry took over Motianling, Zhai Zhe immediately arranged a new task for Xiao Zhiyan.

"Through the confession of the captives, there are four groups of horse thieves outside Hukou, Wan Shanqing of Liangcheng, and Ringer's Caoshangfei, Zhongshan Wolf and Geng Guang. Now the grass fly has been solved, and the other two \u66 of Ringer

2fThe next goal, you go back to the Duoyan grassland, take advantage of the winter Chahar people to live, the grassland is empty, and bring all the people and horses in the old camp over! ”

"All? Five hundred! Xiao Zhiyan was a little worried. He is a man who has been a horse thief, and he knows the difficulties of horse thieves in the grassland, and if he does not have the support of the big forces, he is no different from a lost dog.

Zhai Zhe smiled helplessly and said, "If not, they can only let them take refuge in the Jurchens!" "How can eight businesses spend money in vain to raise such a group of people on the grassland.

"Okay!" Xiao Zhiyan's voice was a little sluggish, with his experience it was difficult to feed so many horse thieves.

Zhai Zhe guessed Xiao Zhiyan's scruples and said: "Do things but with my heart, I have decided since I left Zhangjiakou, life and death are up to fate, and wealth is up to heaven." ”

Xiao Zhiyan curled the corners of his mouth, Zhai Zhe could even give up his identity as the second young master, how could he be a bit of a mother-in-law, this is not like his style.

That day, Xiao Zhiyan left with five personal soldiers.

Zhai Zhe mixed the surrendered horse thieves with the personal soldiers he brought, and talked to people every day to understand the terrain of Helinger.

Helinger is almost all mountains, bordering Liangcheng in the east, the Yellow River in the west, Naturalization in the north, and the killing of Hukou in the Ming Dynasty in the south. The only avenue that exits from the mouth of the killing Hu extends in the adjacent place of Helinger and Liangcheng, leading directly to the Naturalization City. Now the horse thief and the wolf's Lao Yashan Mountain are in the north, and Geng Guang's Black Mountain is in the south, which can directly threaten this road.

Princess Wulan saw Zhai Zhe writing and drawing on the map with a sad face every day, and reminded: "It is impossible for the sweat tent cavalry to attack the cottage of the horse thief!" You're going to have to figure it out for yourself! "The terrain of the horse thief's cottage is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, Ulan is unwilling to lose the little strength in her own hands, and she also wants to test Zhai Zhe's strength. There are so many Han people, and the Han merchants who are willing to take risks are definitely not the only ones who know her, and the strategy set by the Great Khan may not necessarily be pinned on the person in front of him.

"I don't need you to attack the cottage, but you still have to do me a favor!"

"What's the busy?"

"It's easy!" Zhai Zhe folded the sheepskin in his hand.

Temur is now annoyed, why the messenger of the Han people

When he first entered the Tokto steppe, he was looking for their family, but he could not refuse the request of the Khan Tent cavalry. Now he and the Uligi family drove the herd back into the mountains of Helinger. Horse thieves who are familiar with the terrain show them the way, and they are careful to avoid Raven Mountain and Black Mountain. In this kind of weather, there is no oil and water in the ringel, and most of the horse thieves spend the winter in the old camp and will not patrol too far.

In addition to these horse thieves, there are also some scattered bandits, and these people are refugees who have been eliminated by horse thieves. In the mountains where they are hiding, many people can no longer survive because of lack of food and clothing, and Ning Sheng is one of them.

Ning Sheng's strength can't pull away the bow and arrow, and he won't kill people with a knife, the only thing he can do is to settle accounts and do business, horse thieves don't need such people, after all, food in winter is very precious.

Hiding in the mountains from the summer to escape the war, there are now only about twenty of the more than a hundred people around Ning Sheng. All he did now was lean against a big tree and wait for a rabbit to knock him out, and if he didn't, he would have to find some grass roots and bark to feed his hunger.

Hunger made Ning Sheng a little drowsy, as if he had woken up for a long time, he raised his head by chance, his eyes lit up, and he shouted loudly: "There is a herd under the mountain!" ”

Not far away, more than a dozen people crawled out of the cave, their eyes shining with a palpitating light, staring directly at the livestock below the mountain.

"Robbed?"

Ning Sheng swallowed and foamed, and said, "If you rob, you will die, and if you don't rob, you will die!" ”

"Let's go!" Having lived here for a few months, they became familiar with the terrain and soon moved to the front of the herd

When Temur saw the two dozen or so people in ragged clothes who stopped in the middle of the road, he secretly laughed in his heart. This is already the fifth batch, and bandits like this don't need to go out with sweat tent cavalry, they can solve it themselves. However, according to Geriletu's arrangement, he still whistled loudly to the rear.

A dozen Tumut cavalrymen emerged from the forest, their iron hooves rushing through the thin snow.

Ning Sheng's face changed, and then he returned to normal, and it may be a relief to die at the hands of the Mongols at this point in front of him.

The Tumuts surrounded them and shouted for the cavalry: "Go! ”

"Let's go?"

Ning Sheng had a bunch of question marks in his head, could there still be someone who wanted to capture him, wouldn't there be hope for survival.

He was driven north and west by the Tumut cavalry, until he entered a mountain gorge at nightfall, and Ning Sheng saw many acquaintances he had met in the Helinger Mountains, all of whom were imprisoned.

At the entrance of the canyon, two Han people filled firewood and lit a fire, and the flames boiled a cauldron, steaming.

"Drink a bowl of hot soup!" A man scooped up a spoonful of soup and poured it into a bowl on the front of the pot, with a few oil flowers floating on it.

Ning Sheng's tears were about to fall, there was hope, no matter what these people let him do, he was willing.

A man with a scorched head came up to him and asked, "What are you all going to do?" ”

Ning Sheng turned his head to look at the person behind him, speculating on how to answer.

The man asked impatiently, "Just ask what you used to do?" ”

An old man shouted from behind: "I can strike iron, I used to strike iron for the Tumuts!" ”

The old man was skinny, as if a gust of wind could blow it, Che Feng looked at him with suspicion, and a young man squeezed out behind the old man, and said in a very affirmative tone: "My grandfather can strike iron, and so will I!" ”

Ning Sheng cowered and whispered, "I'm in business!" ”

The rest of the people are either field slaves or herdsmen, and the vast majority of the Han people who fled into the grassland became slaves of the Tumut people, just to have food and clothing.

Che Feng nodded at Ning Sheng and Na Zusun and said, "You come with me!" "Turn and leave.

Within five days, Zhai Zhe searched for nearly 200 refugees, most of whom were the elderly, young and weak.

The Khan Tent cavalry constantly escorted the refugees into the gorge below the Ferris Ridge.

"What do you want these people for?" Ulan stomped his little leather boots on the snow a few times, and said, "We have limited food, and although we have seized some grass and fly on the grass, I can only give you half at most!" ”

"These people are the eyes and ears of Zhongshan Wolf and Geng Guang in Helinger, and only by cleaning them all up can I have a chance to eliminate these two people! What's more, what's more," Zhai Zhe smiled, and then said: "As long as people live, they are all hope and strength." ”

Ulan raised his face, smiled like a crescent moon in the corners of his eyes, and said, "I didn't expect you to have the kindness of a woman!" ”

Although the meaning in the words is not good, with her tone and expression, the meaning is not like blame, but more like coquettishness, and the coquettish eyes make Zhai Zhe's heart tremble. Suddenly, he remembered Fan Yi in Zhangjiakou, that smart and lively girl was already his wife in name, and the etiquette of the Ming Dynasty was strict, and his escape would bring her great pressure.
