Guo Shiyong got out of the swamp and walked for half an hour with the soldiers of the two battalions, and everyone felt that the ground under their feet was getting harder, and they had already come out of the swamp. Although it is not as endless as the sea like the prairie of the Mobei Plateau, the grass is bright green and grows very luxuriantly, Zhang Mai patted his mount and smiled: "You are blessed." ”

Guo Shiyong said: "This place is called Zhaoshan, Arslan has a palace near here, and now I don't know if he is here, if he is here, there will definitely be an army, we must be careful." ”

The scenery of this Yibo sea is pleasant, it is also a world-famous resort in later generations, although the Hui is the capital of Ba Ra Shagon, but the Great Khan Arslan often comes here to hunt, the place where the two camps of Leopard Tao and Yingyang break into at this time is a Khan ranch of the Great Khan of Arslan, Yang Yi galloped in, and saw a fat and strong Hui people sitting on a horse and waving a whip from a distance, a group of herdsmen knelt on the ground, let him whip, and did not dare to move, the fat and strong Hui Hui scolded while beating, suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, raised his head, Some soldiers hurriedly got on their horses to intercept them, pointed at Yang Yi and shouted: "This is the Great Khan's pasture!" Who are you and which one are you from? Dare to break in without being ordered! ”

Yang Yi smiled: "I'm your Grandpa Yang!" ”

Without saying a word, the spear stretched out and stabbed the Hui soldier to death under the horse, and the rest of the soldiers who came to intercept him were terrified, and shouted as they resisted: "Are you going to rebel!" Are you going to rebel? ”

Yang Yi scolded: "Make you *** rebel!" We are warriors from the Tang Dynasty, and if we want to take over this grassland, those who know each other will surrender obediently, otherwise this will be the end! ”

He cursed in his mouth, but his hand did not stop, and he stabbed another Hui to death while speaking, and the horse's hooves did not stop, and he rushed directly towards the fat and fat Hui leader.

When the Hui soldiers heard the word "Tang Dynasty", they suddenly remembered the recent rumors, and exclaimed together: "Tang Kou! Tang Kou! ”

The group of herdsmen who were kneeling on the ground were still stunned at first, and when the leader of the Su escaped, one of the clever ones screamed and jumped up and fled, and one of them took the lead and the others fled with him.

A large group of people were scurrying around, obstructing the Tang army's way, Yang Yi was able to kill, and he was about to use knives against these scurrying herdsmen, Zhang Mai saw it behind and shouted: "Don't hurt these poor people!" ”

However, after such an obstacle, the leader of the Su had fled far away. Yang Yi was furious and ordered to surround dozens of herdsmen who had not fled far, and those herdsmen did not dare to resist after being surrounded, and they didn't know who was coming, so they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Zhang Malema approached and asked Guo Luo to ask them where the tents, horses, and granaries of the Hui people were. The shepherd slaves were frightened and did not dare to answer for a while, but a young man with a face full of whip marks stood up and said a few words, and Zhang Mai asked, "What did he say?" ”

Guo Luo said: "He asked us who we were. ”

Zhang Mai said with a smile: "Sue them, we are the Tang Iron Cavalry, and we are here to find trouble with Arslan." ”

The young man said, "Arslan Khan has a palace here, but he is not here, only the demon of Sana is left, if you want to attack Sana, I will lead the way for you, but please spare my people." ”

Zhang Mai smiled: "Okay! Just let the cavalry make way of a gap, Tang Renxiao stepped forward and said, "Special envoy, be careful of deception." Zhang Mai looked at the whip marks on his face and said, "If the Hui people can guess that we are going to deliberately do this scene, then they are immortals!" He pointed to the young man and asked, "What's your name?" Who is it? ”

The young man said, "My name is Chiding, and I am from the black-headed black guard. ”

Zhang Mai asked again: "You just said that Arslan is not here, so how many soldiers and horses are left here?" ”

Chi Ding said: "I don't know very well, there are probably hundreds of people." ”

"Hundreds? Ha ha! Zhang Mai said: "Give him a horse." Let him lead the way and find Arslan's Zhaoshan Palace here. ”

Seeing that Zhang Mai had kept his word and let his clansmen go, Chi Ding didn't say a word, turned over his horse, and shouted, "Follow me!" ”

Rushing to the west, walking for several miles, the terrain gradually increased, and then he saw a mountain with a hundred and ten houses, surrounded by a golden golden tent, and Chi Ding pointed and said: "That is the Zhaoshan Palace of the Great Khan of Arslan." ”

The palace is looking at the lake by the mountain, there is a clear spring on the mountain, think about the mountain and the water, and the wind is blowing, when it is noon, it is quite hot, but when you look at the layout on the mountain, you feel a little cool, it is really a resort, Zhang Mai scolded: "This Arslan is also very good at enjoying it!" ”

Yang Yi was about to kill, Guo Luo saw that there were triple fences and two stone walls at the intersections of the two entrances up and down the mountain in the palace, and said: "Brother Mai, this mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, we are just coming to disturb, there is no need to waste time to attack the city." ”

Zhang Mai said: "It makes sense. ”

Then he saw someone waving a flag on the hill and burning wolf smoke, and Credin cried out, "Sana is calling for reinforcements, you better run." Zhang Mai asked: "Reinforcements?" How many soldiers and horses do they have? ”

Chi Ding said: "Now that the Great Khan is not here, there are not many soldiers and horses in this vicinity, but tracing the Yili River to the east, there are a total of 97 troops along the 2,000-mile coast, including the Turgish, Qarlu and Hui, with more than 100,000 people. If the enemy is defeated, the wolf smoke will be extinguished, and if the wolf smoke is not extinguished, it will burn over at one station, and more than 100,000 people will come. ”

Soon he saw that one or two hundred horsemen had come around the valley and went straight to the palace to rendezvous, thinking that the nearest reinforcements had arrived. Yang Dingbang saw the opportunity very quickly, pointed to the entrance and exit points at the foot of Zhaoshan Xinggong Mountain and said: "Disperse the reinforcements first!" "He is the main general, give an order, Yang Yi will take the lead, more than 300 cavalry will run to the bottom of the mountain to wait, to wait for work, the more than 100 cavalry hesitate to approach, Yang Dingbang saw that the horsepower has rested, and suddenly gave an order, more than 300 cavalry rushed out together, killing the group of reinforcements crying dad and fleeing.

Tang Jun laughed, Chi Ding saw that Tang Jun was so powerful, he was in awe, and a little envious, and the defenders on the mountain saw that they hurriedly closed the entrance and exit gates, lest the Tang army rush up.

Yang Dingbang said to Zhang Mai: "Special envoy, I trapped the enemy here, you and Brother Shiyong went to rob the granary and horses of Huifu, and if we grabbed something, we will leave, we can't stay here for a long time." ”

Zhang Mai nodded and said, "Reasonable!" ”

asked Chi Ding to lead the way, and on the way, Chi Ding suddenly said, "Master Zhang, can you let me join you?" I'm willing to lead you on horseback. ”

Zhang Mai was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "We welcome anyone." But first you have to show us that you're genuinely joining. And you have to learn to speak Tang Yan, I don't want to rely on someone to translate every day when I talk to my subordinates in the future. ”

After listening to Guo Luo's translation, Chi Ding was overjoyed and said, "I learn, I learn!" As long as someone teaches, I learn things very quickly. ”

Take Zhang Mai to see the ranch first, the herdsmen have already fled, to the lake, Zhang Mai was stunned, it turned out that this ranch was stocked with more than 1,000 good horses, each of them was in good spirits, Zhang Mai screamed, pointed to the ranch and shouted: "Everyone rush!" Rush in and take it away if you see something good! Also, each of them helped the brothers under Zhaoshan to lead one or two horses! ”

More than 300 Tang soldiers cheered in unison, first leading the strong ones, and then the fat ones, swept away this horse farm with more than 1,000 good horses, and then went to find the granary, but it was dozens of houses under Zhaoshan, and the sheepfold outside the granary was full of lambs, I am afraid that there would be tens of thousands of heads! And the warehouse is full of sacks of wheat! The Yili River not only moistens the land along the river to form grasslands, but also uses it to irrigate farmland, and the climate of the Yili River basin can not only grow wheat, but also rice, and the grain harvest is quite abundant. Arslan visited here once or twice a year, and each time tens of thousands of people roared in, so there was enough food to feed tens of thousands of troops for a month.

Tang Jun was overjoyed to see so much food, and shouted and cheered like a wolf, Guo Shiyong stroked his chest and sighed: "With this granary, the soldiers and civilians of Wu'anxi will have no hunger within three years!" But then he remembered something and said, "It's a pity." ”

Zhang Mai asked what it was a pity, Guo Shiyong said: "So much grain, we can't transport it all, at most we can only transport a small part, if we are greedy, our light cavalry will become a baggage team, and the cavalry will cover it, and we can't run." ”

Zhang Mai thought to himself that this is not bad, they are sneak attack troops, and they pay attention to coming and going like the wind, if they are greedy for money and food, then they will be like rats entering the rice urn, and they will not be able to get out of their stomachs after eating. With a pity in his heart, he gritted his teeth and said: "Captain Guo, let's see how much we can take away at most without affecting the speed, and the rest ......"

"What should I do?" Guo Luo asked.

Zhang Mai gritted his teeth: "Prepare firewood, burn it!" ”

Although I felt that it was a pity, thinking about what it would be like to burn so much grain and grass at once, the soldiers of the Tang Army couldn't help but smile.

Yang Dingbang continued to besiege the remaining defenders on the mountain, Guo Shiyong was about to make a move, and the scout cavalry came to report: "A group of soldiers and horses came from the southeast, about 1,000 people. ”

Guo Shiyong was taken aback and said: "I can't ask for this food, my life is at stake, change my life and prepare to retreat into the swamp." ”

Guo Luo was about to go to light a fire to burn food, Chi Ding looked at it and said, "That's our black-headed black tribe, Envoy Zhang, please wait a while, maybe I can help persuade them to submit." ”

Zhang Mai hesitated, and Guo Shiyong said: "Special envoy, why take the risk?" Let's go, anyway, we are here this time to make a noise, and once the purpose has been achieved, there is no need to make trouble. ”

Chi Ding said: "Special Envoy Zhang, please believe me. We, Wuhu, are also deeply oppressed by the Hui, and now that the Tang Heavenly Soldiers have descended to save us from suffering, everyone must be willing to follow. ”

Zhang Mai looked at the tribe that came from the opening, and saw that the weapons of this group of people were uneven, some were big sticks, and some were wooden sticks with sharpened bones and stones, although the number was more than that of the Tang army, but the army was not in order, and they did not dare to come up for a while when they were deployed in the distance, Zhang Mai said to Chi Ding: "Okay, I believe in you, you go." Ask your people what they're doing this time. If they are willing to submit, I will not need their benefit, and if they want to be loyal to the Hui, they will still come to attack us-" Pointing to the corpses on the mountain road: "That's the example!" ”

Seeing that Zhang Maiken believed him, Chi Ding swore to the sky: "If I have an envoy, may the sky send thunder and thunder to my top!" He went happily, and after he left, Zhang Mai said again: "Let's prepare with both hands, if there is any change in these black-headed black guards, they will immediately break their formation, and follow the pat on the ass and leave!" ”

All the young soldiers responded in unison, and Guo Luo went to prepare to light a fire and burn food at any time.
