Chapter 36 Finding out the news

"Bagen knows astronomy and geography, and he knows almost everything!" Wu Xing said meaningfully, "I can't figure it out...... What you just said was something you learned when you were a slave by Wanhu's side, or did you only learn about it after you became the deputy of the capital guard?"

"It's all hearsay. Bagen said casually and modestly.

Wu Xing suddenly chased after him, strangled his mount, turned his head and glanced at it coldly, and said, "From before leaving the village to now, you have said so much, in fact, there is still a big loophole. Since you are a skilled veterinarian, and you have been fighting with 10,000 households, and you have 'seen a lot of knowledge,' how can no one among the barbarians recognize your appearance? Not to mention that you are a deserted slave soldier! Those barbarians who recognize you are probably eager to directly tie you up and send you to the 10,000 households to ask for merit. If I go with you, I will become the target of public criticism. ”

As soon as he said this, he almost pointed to Bagan's nose and asked him what his intentions were! It seems that among the scout skills that Qian Nanzheng has imparted, at least in terms of the ability to trace the truth from clues, it is still remarkable.

Wu Xing, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, now has six lives in his hands: two scouts, two star monarchs, and two hundred family soldiers. Especially the experience of the life-and-death struggle between the two star monarchs, Wu Xing naturally had a fierce murderous aura between his gestures at this time!

Bagan was silent for a moment, and then said slowly in a hoarse voice: "In the west of the Northland, there was originally a Churkan led by the Tyumen tribe, and it was due to frequent wars and domestic and foreign affairs needs, a loose alliance was gradually formed, and meetings were held from time to time to discuss problems and disputes. The rapid growth of the Churkan Alliance, which had been formed because of the Shizhi Mo trade route, aroused the khan's wariness, and on the grounds that he had heard of the name of the eldest son of the Tyumen tribal chief, he asked the patriarch to send his eldest son to the khan, and promised to canonize him as Huangtaiji, with the right of second succession. This is also a regular practice to strengthen the cohesion of the barbarian tribes, selecting suitable successors from among the powerful tribes, and inheriting the Khan throne according to the order, not completely according to the Khan's bloodline. ”

Later, Hun Tai Ji died suddenly, well, Hun Tai Ji was the first successor to the Khan throne. Huang Taiji's death was somehow related to the newly canonized Huang Taiji. Later, it was found out that Huang Taiji coveted the Khan's throne, and the Khan and Hun Taiji were both Wuqu Xingjun; Huang Taiji saw that the succession was far away, so he secretly laid a strange poison from the Great Rift Valley, cut off the first successor, and was caught by the Khan's own soldiers when he was preparing to repeat the old trick. ”

"The Tyumen tribe later bought Huang Taiji's life at the cost of the annexation of the tribe. Although the Tyumen tribe is famous for its veterinarians, it unexpectedly became rich and civilized with 'stone grease ink', and finally attracted a flying disaster. The khan said that the death penalty could be avoided, but the living crime could not be escaped, and directly demoted Huang Taiji to slavery and banished him to the steppe barbarians, ostensibly leaving him to fend for himself, but in fact secretly instructed the ten thousand households of that tribe to find an opportunity to eradicate Huang Taiji. ”

"It's just that what the khan didn't know was that when the Tyumen tribe became rich and powerful because of the 'stone grease ink', it naturally chose the tribe close to him as a transit point for the trade route, and one of the transit stations closest to the northern countries happened to be the tribe where the ten thousand households were located, and even the trade route is still maintained as it was back then. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that this is exactly what the Khan wants the ten thousand households to vote for and completely sever relations with the Tyumen tribe. In short, as soon as Taiji arrived, Nawanhu randomly found an excuse to start a war with another neighboring tribe, and Huang Taiji was naturally chosen to become an 'outlier' and 'die' in the first wave of charge. After that, the trade route remained as it was, perhaps in return for the Khan's vote for the 10,000 households. ”

Bagen patted the token on the head of the sign hanging on his waist, and said: "This time, it is the tribe of Nawanhu that is in Koubian, so Bagen is sure to bring Wu Xing into the war zone and bring him out safely." And the reason why that hundred households recognized me was because he was the one who escorted me all the way south. I think that as long as I really kill Du Baozheng, the hundred households will let me go again. As for the villagers, Baoding, my wife and children, I am afraid that they will not be able to escape. In the eyes of the barbarians, those people were just the property of the tribe and could be disposed of at will. So, sometimes, it seems that a choice is made in an instant, and it is not as easy as imagined. ”

Wu Xing has been riding his horse and Bagen slowly, and when he heard this, he naturally recalled that the hundred households at that time did say very abruptly in the process of fighting with him, "I didn't really want to kill him", and it seemed that he did roar at Du Bao's vice-president, which was probably the local language of the tribe. It's just that the ferocious and sharp knife that Bagen and Wu Xing flanked back and forth really wanted to take the opportunity to kill the hundred households. Due to the miscalculation of the strength of the hundred households, the later variables will appear.

There is no absolute right or wrong in many things, it only depends on which angle you stand to see it, and many things may not be as you see with your own eyes, and there may be other hidden secrets.

When Wu Xing came back to his senses, he found that Bagen had already gotten out of bed not far in front, whistled at a small forest covered in silver on the side of the road, made two gestures quickly, and then spread his arms.

Seeing this, Wu Xing hurriedly rode his horse to follow, but saw that Bagen turned around and made a slightly calmer gesture.

At this moment, three barbarians came out of the forest, one stayed on the edge of the forest, with his bow and arrows, and the other two walked slowly with swords in hand.

"Huang Taiji?!"

"Bagan, is that you?!"

When the two barbarians saw that Bagen took the initiative to take off his felt hat and walked closer, they naturally recognized each other's appearances. Bagen easily called out the names of the two barbarians, and then pointed to Wu Xing, who had already set the horse to stand more than ten meters away, and introduced: "That's Bagen's savior, you don't need to see him, just call him 'Xingxing'." ”

The three of them hugged each other warmly, patted each other's backs vigorously, and waited until the two barbarians noticed Bagan's grinning expression before they realized that they were injured.

At this time, the third barbarian naturally collected the bow and arrows and walked over, and Wu Xing also dismounted and walked to the side of Bagen to stand still.

"By the way, the stars want to ask you about the two of you. After a few words of cold talk with the three barbarian Zhang family members, Ba Gen and Li Jiaxiao, without a trace, changed the topic to Wu Xing.

Hearing Wu Xing conversing in a fairly fluent barbarian language, the faces of the three barbarians became even more relaxed.

"The star soldier is a big iron hammer?uh, this is a very common kind of star soldier among our Wuqu Star Monarchs!" one of the barbarians asked very carefully, "Can you give me any other characteristics of the star soldier?" such as the specific style of the decoration on the hammer surface and hammer handle, how big the hammer surface is, how long the hammer handle is, what shape the hammer head is, and so on. ”

"It is said to be a meteor hammer, a single meteor, with a handle about the length of an arm, a thorn at the end of the tail, a hammer chain five feet long, and a ball of thorns, with a total of thirty-three prismatic thorns. Wu Xing replied very quickly, obviously having memorized his style deeply in his mind.

"If it's a meteor hammer, the range can be reduced a lot. There are about seventeen or eighteen Wuqu Xingjun who make the meteor hammer on the grassland, and if they are under the command of the four totem battle banners...... There is no one hundred, there are eighty. It was still the same barbarian who had asked very carefully before.

"Then what if it appeared in White Horse Town twelve years ago?" Wu Xing also directly "narrowed" the scope further.

Not surprisingly, the three barbarians showed a hint of alarm on their faces, and they all turned their heads to look at Bagan, who had been silent, as if to confirm some information from the latter.

Bagen didn't force it, but said ambiguously: "If you know, just say it, if you don't know, don't say it." ”

The three barbarians exchanged glances, and it was the barbarian who spoke: "That Wuqu Xingjun, named Dengba, nicknamed Fire Meteor, was the only one who made the meteor hammer appear in White Horse Town twelve years ago. After the battle in White Horse Town, he has already been promoted to the rank of Five-Rank Star Monarch, and is now under the command of the Snow Eagle Banner. Our tribe's territory has always been a must for large armies to go south, and if there are no accidents, Dengba should be the person you are looking for. ”

Wu Xing finally got a reliable clue, and in a state of excitement, he directly took out a nine-grade star stone from the money bag and handed it over, saying: "This is an ownerless thing, and there is no use in leaving it with me, so I will give it to you!"

The three barbarians resolutely refused to accept it, and said, "We only talked so much to you because of Bagen's face. If you take your belongings, it's not the same thing. ”

Bagen also motioned for Wu Xing to take back the star stone, and then took a huge wine bag from the saddle of one of the northland horses, threw it to the three barbarians opposite, and said with a smile: "You don't take his things." You can't do without my stuff, can you?"

"Burn the knife!" one of the barbarians pulled out the wooden cork and sniffed, saliva was about to flow out, and the other two barbarians were naturally no longer polite, and finally remembered that Bagen was injured, so they patted their shoulders instead.

"Are you two going to go west, there's a siege going on over there, and it's not safe. "Among the three barbarians, it is vaguely the person who speaks, and the meaning of the words is actually a warning.

It's okay for the three barbarians to catch up with Bagan and chat, but if you put someone who is not friend or foe into the war zone, it is a dereliction of duty!
