At noon, the sun was in the sky, and in the mountain road to the east of Lao Ya Mountain, more than a dozen horse thieves were patrolling along a fixed route, in order to avoid the Chahar people, Xiao Zhiyan had narrowed the scope of surveillance a lot, and no longer stepped into the land of Liangcheng.

The horse thieves patrolling the road walked three times a day, and there was no movement except for the occasional hare jumping in the woods.

The horse thieves were very relaxed, chatting as they walked, talking about the news of the Ming Dynasty, the embarrassment of the Tumuts, of course, they would complain a few words, they hadn't robbed for a long time, and they couldn't even see a woman.

In the depths of the dense forest, several long arrows suddenly flew out, and the three horse thieves on the side of the road let out a few screams, and the arrows fell to the ground.

The remaining horse thieves drew their swords and struck, and the horses were turned to look left and right, and there were no number of people in the jungle, and the bows and arrows flew out, and two more people were shot.

"Report back to the cottage!" The horse thieves came to their senses and turned their horses' heads around and galloped away.

A dozen knights rushed out of the woods and gave hot pursuit.

Fortunately, Xiao Zhiyan's subordinates are all old horse thieves who have been in the grassland for many years, and they have excellent riding skills, and they completely lie on the horse's back one by one, reducing the area shot by the bow and arrow. The war horses leaped up and down in the mountain road, this was the road they had walked countless times, and the deep pits in the corners could be felt with their eyes closed, and they gradually led the pursuers behind them away.

"You've been ambushed?" Xiao Zhiyan on the Old Crow Mountain looked at the frightened patrol in front of him.

"Yes, I lost five brothers, and the pursuers behind me couldn't see clearly, and there were more than a dozen people listening to the movement." The horse thieves who fled back were still afraid.

"Immediately\u53

EC set brothers on the mountain! Xiao Zhiyan got up and took off the longbow from the wall and strode out.

A team of scouts was sent out to monitor the movement of Helinger Avenue, and Xiao Zhiyan ordered someone to report to Meng Kang in Montenegro and told him to take precautions.

The many fixed posts set up between the mountains did not report back to the village, indicating that there was no brigade of men and horses coming from the direction of Liangcheng. Xiao Zhiyan was restless, ordered fifty people to go down the mountain in person, and took the horse thieves who fled back to search in the direction of the accident.

Everyone was careful all the way. Starting from the mountain path of pursuit, Xiao Zhiyan dismounted and carefully examined the marks left by the iron hooves on the dead grass until the ambush site.

There were five corpses lying flat on the ground, their swords and bows and arrows gone, and their horses gone.

"Horse thief!" Xiao Zhiyan gently spit out two words.

It's the kind of thing that only a horse thief can do.

"Search for me!"

Lei Yanqian's border guards were left on Lao Ya Mountain, and all the horse thieves went down the mountain and searched in the mountains and forests in a carpet style.

Xiao Zhiyan led his own soldiers to tightly lock the traces left by those people walking in the mountains and forests, and when it comes to scout kung fu, the best hunters are nothing more than that.

The sky gradually darkened, and the traces left in the bushes became more and more blurred, seeing that he could no longer follow, Xiao Zhiyan shook his head helplessly, it seemed that he could only track it tomorrow. The mountains of Helinger and Liangcheng are continuous, and poisonous insects and beasts are often infested at night, and everyone is far away from the mountains, and they urgently need to find an open place to camp.

After walking for a while, Xiao Zhiyan suddenly noticed a bright light flashing in the jungle not far away.

"Someone!" He lowered his voice to warn the soldiers behind him, and when he looked closely, the lights loomed in the distance.

The crowd groped their way through the darkness and walked toward the light.

In the dark night, the light seemed to be in front of them, but in fact the distance was very far, and the group felt the way and walked for more than half an hour before they could see clearly up close.

Gradually, a dozen Mongols were roasting meat around a fire, eating and talking.

"Tumuts!" Xiao Zhiyan curled the corners of his mouth, raised the longbow in his hand, and changed his mind.

A long arrow suddenly shot out of the dark jungle, which was set on the raging flames, and the sparks flew in all directions, so frightened that the Mongols who were leaning close to them screamed and looked for weapons.

More than 20 people came out of the woods with bows and arrows, Xiao Zhiyan walked in the forefront, and said: "Everyone obediently raise your hands, whoever moves again will seek death!" ”

The Tumut horse thieves looked at each other, and seeing that there was no chance to resist, they raised their hands one by one.

"Tie up!" Xiao Zhiyan waved his hand.

A few of his own soldiers went up and tied the hands of the Tumut horse thieves one by one.

Xiao Zhiyan walked into the fire, took a piece of roasted half-cooked meat and took a bite in his mouth, the entrance was rough, and it was indeed horse meat.

"You killed my people today!" Xiao Zhiyan pulled out the scimitar at his waist.

"Yes!" A Mongol with a thick beard was undaunted.

"Are you horse thieves in Liangcheng?" Xiao Zhiyan pressed the scimitar to his throat.

The Mongol threw his neck back and replied: "Yes!" ”

"Why did you cross the line and sneak up on us!" Xiao Zhiyan's scimitar cut a bloody mark at his throat.

The Mongol turned pale and said, "We were chased by Chahar, that's why we escaped!" ”

Xiao Zhiyan put away the knife and ordered: "Bring it back to the cottage!" ”

Relying on their familiarity with the terrain, everyone returned to the cottage overnight.

After Xiao Zhiyan's interrogation, he learned that after the drought, the Chahar tribes were all gathered in the water source concentration area, and it was becoming more and more difficult for the remnants of the Tumut horse thieves in the mountains to sneak attack the Chahar herdsmen, and the Chahar cavalry was reluctantly pursued and killed, and they were all preparing to retreat to Helinger.

Involving the Tumut people, Xiao Zhiyan did not dare to make his own claims, and ordered someone to go to Hanzhai to report to Zhai Zhe the next day.

After receiving the report, Zhai Zhe took Che Feng and others and hurried to Lao Ya Mountain.

After Lao Yashan learned the specific situation, Zhai Zhe was thoughtful, called Che Feng to his side, and asked seriously: "Are you Han or Tumut?" ”

Che Feng was surprised, smiled bitterly, and said: "It's both, I look like a Mongolian, and I wish I was more Han in my heart." But Tumut is also my tribe! ”

"I want you to be a Tumert! Would you like to? ”

oo Chefeng looked up at Zhai Zhe with a puzzled expression.

Zhai Zhe stretched out his hand and pointed to the cell where the horse thief was held, and said, "I want you to recruit the Tumut horse thief!" ”

"Most of these Tumuts lost everything in the war, so they stayed in Daqingshan and Liangcheng, and they are as unfortunate as what happened to you. After returning to the Tumut Ministry, there are no relatives and no livestock, so they can't survive, and I can feed them when I put them into Hanzhai! Zhai Zhe paced back and forth, and said: "There are Tumut people in Hanzhai, which will be very beneficial to the coexistence of Han people and Tumut people in the future!" ”

"It's all up to the boss!" Che Feng bowed his head and said, "I only hope that the Han and Tumut people can coexist peacefully!" ”

"This is also my wish," Zhai Zhe put his hands behind his back.

"But from now on, you have to bury the heart of the Han people and completely regard yourself as a Tumut, so that you can control these unruly horse thieves!"

"Yes!" The sound of the wind was a little hesitant.

"Follow me down the mountain!"

Zhai Zhe immediately led his entourage to leave Lao Ya Mountain, and the big black horse went straight to the skyscraper ridge near the Tuoketo grassland.

He only looked for Princess Ulan for one thing, to borrow twenty sweat tent cavalry.

With the sweat tent cavalry as a signboard, let the car wind recruit Tumut horse thieves to get twice the result with half the effort. On the steppe, the Mongols will definitely not become subordinates of the Han Chinese, only the Han people may become slaves of the Mongols.

From now on, the Han people who remained in the steppe could no longer be all slaves of the Tumuts, at least not Zhai Zhe's Han tribe. In order to improve the status of the Han people, to improve the strength of the Han people, and again to change the impression of the Han people in the hearts of the Tumut people. If you don't do it when the Tumut tribe is at its weakest, I'm afraid there will be no such opportunity in the future.
