Chapter 99, Eliminate the Horse Thief
Zu Zhao was very fierce about the provocation, which scholar's letter, he just replied simply, the birthday star always eats arsenic - looking for death. However, the guerrilla general's reply was extremely murderous - if you dare to come to Liaodong County, you will be allowed to go without return!
As a result, the other party received Zu Zhao's letter like the turtle king eight, and there was no news.
And three days later, which guerrilla general wrote to apologize, claiming that there was a misunderstanding and so on. Probably this person heard some news and knew that Zu Zhao's ghost ride was powerful, and after Zu Zhao was an immortal master, going against Zu Zhao was simply an act of looking for death.
Zu Zhao didn't pay attention to such goods, there is no military power in this era, anyone can pinch you, but with military power, you can fight against the imperial court, Dong Zhuo is such an existence, Cao Cao is also such an existence, even the above Liu Huangshu who used the Han clan as an excuse is the same, and the same is true of the confrontation in the Three Kingdoms era.
Situ Yan's news still came, not optimistic, the three of them received a few small horse thief forces at first, and the idle horse thieves with a hundred lives were willing to follow them, but when they met another group of horse thieves, Sima Hengfeng, they were completely planted.
Situ Hengfeng pretended to negotiate, but he tricked them to the negotiation place and killed all the horse thieves, Situ Yan's two younger brothers were detained, and Situ Hengfeng was ready to exchange her two younger brothers for glory and wealth.
When Situ Yan came to Liaodong County, everything was lost.
Zu Zhao took her to the sand table, and finally knew why this Situ Yan failed, Sima Hengfeng had two thousand men and horses before and after, which can be said to be the biggest horse thief in the periphery of Liaodong County, but what does Situ Yan have? There are only a hundred horse thieves, and it is completely nonsense to bring people to negotiate in front of such a disparity of forces, and Situ Hengfeng is an extremely old and ruthless guy, and the righteousness of the family is nothing in front of him, and Situ Hengfeng is very dissatisfied with Situ Yan's sister and brother putting the royal family in front of him, so he directly designed to wipe out Situ Yan's people.
"Please save my brother, you promised us to be our back!" Situ Yan wanted to cry without tears, and this was the case on the grassland, where the law of the jungle followed the rules of wolves and sheep.
"Get up, isn't it just Situ Hengfeng? He killed your people, I will lead the cavalry to kill their people tonight, and give you a backing, I hope you can use this prestige to rise quickly, if there is a second Situ Hengfeng, I don't want to fight again! If you want to return to Xianbei to be a royal family, you must have a wise brain, that is not your snack bar, you are the sister of the future emperor, or you are the future female emperor, understand? ”
Situ Yan agreed with tears in her eyes.
In the middle of the night, Zu Zhao set out with the ghost horse, and three hundred Mo knives were given to the strongest ghost horse, because the weight of the Mo knife was too heavy, no less than a hundred catties, and such a tyrannical knife could only be wielded by the strongest warriors.
Late at night, there is a kind of singing and dancing in Situ Hengfeng's camp, a large number of horse thieves are singing, dancing, drinking, and eating mutton, this is their intoxicated life, killing people and setting fire during the day, and completely indulging at night, among them, there are robbing the Han girls to go to the field to be happy.
Situ Hengfeng squinted at the sky in the distance, inexplicably felt a panic, I don't know why there was a frightened heartbeat, walking around in the big tent was very irritable, but he looked around at his own horse thieves, but he couldn't find anything wrong.
Licking blood on the knife all the year round made him understand a truth, that is, he couldn't relax his vigilance, and with this sense of crisis, he stood up and beckoned his own soldiers to take a look, what was abnormal.
In his hand, he grabbed his big knife, a treasure knife inlaid with precious stones, and it was rumored that this treasure knife was given to Li Guang by the Han Emperor, but it fell into his hands after several mistakes.
But as soon as his guards were gone, he strode out, and saw a nearby cavalry densely surrounding his bandits' den, and all of them were masked in black scarves, led by three hundred men with heavy broadswords in their hands, dragged up to the barracks.
"There are other locks looking for trouble, all of them are special for me!"
At this time, Situ Hengfeng thought that other horse thieves came to find trouble, and he didn't realize that it was Zu Zhao's officers and soldiers coming, and in Situ Hengfeng's eyes, the officers and soldiers of the Han Dynasty did not dare to step out of the city gate of Liaodong County.
But Zu Zhao just came.
But at this time, it was Situ Yan who appeared in front of everyone.
She stepped forward and said to Situ Hengfeng: "Release my brother, we can say anything, if you don't let go, I will completely wipe out some of your people!" ”
Situ Hengfeng looked at the woman in front of him in surprise, he knew this Situ Yan, but he didn't expect that she would be able to find strong reinforcements in such a short time.
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill your brother? You know that there is no limit to my Situ Hengfeng's work, if you provoke me, then don't blame my people for being polite! Someone will bring those two fools to me, and if they don't retreat, cut them down!" ”
Situ Hengfeng spoke coldly.
Soon Situ Qingfeng Situ Changkong was brought over, but the two of them were dying, and they were beaten miserably, which made Situ Yan's eyes blood-red, and he couldn't wait to slaughter Situ Hengfeng in person.
"See, this is the end of the opponent of me, if you hesitate for half a step, I will cut them down!" Situ Hengfeng spoke angrily, playing against a woman, and he would be laughed at by the horse thief gate when it was spread.
Situ Yan looked at Situ Qingfeng and Situ Changkong in front of her, and felt that she couldn't see the faces of the two, and she didn't know if these two people were really Situ Qingfeng and Situ Changkong.
But Zu Zhao directly picked up the strong crossbow and shot it at Situ Qingfeng and Situ Changkong.
In an instant, both of them were torn apart by the arrows of the crossbow.
The two of them were suddenly shattered, and everyone was stunned for a moment.
But Zu Zhao was indifferent and ruthless and waved his hand in front of him, and three hundred Mo Dao hands stepped forward.
"Get on the war horse, kill them, and let these guys know how powerful my Situ Hengfeng is!"
Zu Zhao responded coldly: "This time it's to test the power of the Mo Dao, others don't have to step forward to respond, I just want to see the role of the Mo Dao in the battle today." Mo Dao stepped forward, all today's military exploits are yours, there are nearly two thousand horse thieves in front of you, let me see your combat effectiveness! ”
The three hundred Mo swordsmen snorted, stepped in unison, and killed Situ Hengfeng's group of horse thieves.
"Are you really going to send these three hundred people to death?" Situ Yan was not optimistic about the infantry, especially the infantry with a long knife in his hand, but Zu Zhao didn't care about this, but ordered coldly.
When a cavalryman met the Mo swordsman, the extremely sharp blade of the Mo knife slashed slightly, and a war horse was directly cut off the horse's head, and the Mo swordsman then waved, like cutting tofu, the opponent's cavalry and the blade were seen as two pieces.
The cavalry had no advantage in front of the infantry with the Mo's sword in their hands.
But the cavalry behind was still there, still rushing forward, and the Mo swordsman just made a slashing posture, and there were cavalry coming on his side. Then the flesh flew and the sycophants fell.
The only regret is that the Mo knife hand is unstable on his feet, or he is knocked away by the horse, which makes the opponent's cavalry rush into the Mo Dao formation, but then the cavalry is also immediately crushed.
In an hour, the Mo swordsman wiped out 2,000 cavalry, and the remaining remnants of the defeated soldiers tried to escape but were caught by Zu Zhao's people, and then handed over to Situ Yan.
Situ Hengfeng was captured alive, and Situ Qingfeng and Situ Changkong were found in the camp, these two people had long been targeted by Zu Zhao's people, so Situ Hengfeng wanted the tanuki to change the prince or a little worse.
In the big camp, Zu Zhao sat steadily eating the mutton roasted by Situ Hengfeng and these people, and asked lightly: "What other forces are around you?" Tomorrow you write to invite them all over, and say that you have good iron ingots here, and let them talk about the price, and I have iron ingots here, and I will send them when you write them! ”
Zu Zhao took out an iron ingot, and he brought two thousand catties of such an iron ingot.
Situ Hengfeng's face was very pale, and there was no way, because not writing a few sentences in front of him was only a dead end.
And he still hasn't figured out who these people are? Could it be a group of horse thieves who have spread here? Or what does it have to do with that Situ Yan? “
He thought in his heart, but he hurriedly wrote a letter, the dead Dao friends do not die the poor Dao, maybe those forces will come tomorrow, and they will have to die tomorrow, but they can not die today, maybe they will die tomorrow, but they can live one more day, right? This is Situ Hengfeng's idea, the mixed discipline and character on the grassland have been fed to the wolves.
Situ Yan and Situ Qingfeng Situ Changkong looked pale, why didn't they understand that this was for their sake, as soon as these horse thieves around them were wiped out, this would be the place where they would develop their strength in the future, so that they would have capital when they returned to the Xianbei clan.
Soon the iron ingots were sent away, and the horse thieves who flew to various places accompanied by Situ Hengfeng's letter,
Iron ingots are a good thing, horse thieves are very eager, because with iron ingots you can build weapons, create a variety of strong bows and swords, let people expand and improve combat effectiveness, the most important thing is that the Xianbei clan lacks iron ore all year round, and there are no good weapons, if there are iron ingots, the strength of the Xianbei clan will still soar in the future.
Iron ingots are the mother of war, the root of war, in this era of cold weapons, you can't always fight with a stick.
Horse thieves from all directions were moved when they saw the iron ingot samples, because they really lacked iron ingots, and these iron ingots were only in such good condition in the Han Dynasty. Those who are not impressed are those who have no ambition, and the horse thieves on the grassland do not want to expand their power.
