Chapter 179: We Believe in Him
The news brought by Cao Shuangxi not only made the people feel a little relieved, but also made Zhang Shun and other border city and county officials sitting in the yamen also breathe a sigh of relief, and Zhang Shun finally let go of some cranky thoughts and worries in his heart.
As soon as he heard that Cao Shuangxi came to pull the replaced shield, Zhang Shun ordered Qiao Shan to lead people to prepare and get the shield into the carriage as soon as possible.
After Qiao Shan was ordered to step out of the yamen hall, Zhang Shun then asked Cao Shuangxi about the specific process of the battle.
In the face of Zhang Shun's detailed questioning, Cao Shuangxi also told Zhang Shun and others what happened in great detail.
Now that the news of the shield has been conveyed, then just wait for Qiao Shan to carry the shield into the carriage, and then Cao Shuangxi can directly pull it to escort it.
After listening to Cao Shuangxi's details, the people in the yamen were in a cold sweat and scared.
This defensive victory is really too far-fetched, if there is no such a good shield, I really don't know what kind of situation it will be.
"It's really dangerous!"
Wiping away the cold sweat from his forehead, Liu Yi on the side was shocked: "I have long heard that the Mongols are powerful in cavalry and shooting, but I didn't expect it to be terrifying, if this is to fight against them on the Great Plains!" Isn't it ......? ”
Although Liu Yi didn't finish the rest of the words, everyone sitting in the lobby understood what he meant, and they all sighed and shook their heads, feeling a little desperate about how to face this murderous Mongolian in the future.
However, Zhang Shun seemed a little calm, for him, since his brother could repel once, he could repel a second time.
Moreover, Tai also knew that as long as they were given time, the soldiers in the border cities and counties would definitely have a qualitative leap at the moment, and they would naturally be able to resist the Mongols at that time, even on the Great Plains.
Looking at the people who changed color, Cao Shuangxi secretly clenched his fists, a little dissatisfied with their reaction, and said a little bit of poverty: "With the master here, everything should be fine, isn't it?" ”
"If you can repel the enemy the first time, why can't you have a second time? The third time? I believe we can do it! ”
Cao Shuangxi's words made everyone look at each other, and their eyes lit up.
"Yes, think about it, we used to be powerless against the bandits in our county, and we could only watch the people being persecuted by them."
"But since the arrival of Lord Qianfu Zhang, the thieves in the county have been cleaned up in a few days, and the large group of bandits in Yan'an County have been destroyed."
"And now, the Mongols have been repelled, and I believe that under the leadership of Master Zhang, the Mongols will be repelled again."
A scribe stood up and clenched his fists at the north, his eyes full of respect, as if Zhang Tie was right in front of his eyes.
This scribe is really Hongyu, a little scribe who registers with recruits.
Because Zhang Shun had seen him, and he also saw his hard work and grievances, and knew that he was a showman, he took him with him and followed Qiao Shan to deal with affairs, and Yan Ran became the second right-hand man after Qiao Shan.
The main blogger Guo Mingjian also clenched his fists and said: "Yes, I also believe that Zhang Qianfu can defeat the Mongols." ”
Although Guo Mingjian has done some ulterior things, his love for the border city and county is unquestionable.
After all, he is also a native of Biancheng County, who doesn't want his hometown to be beautiful.
All of a sudden, the people in the yamen became energetic, and they became more agile in their work.
And at this moment, Qiao Shan, who went to install the shield, returned to the lobby, first nodded to Zhang Shun, and then said to Cao Shuangxi: "Shuangxi, the shields have been loaded into the carriage, they are now heading to the North City Gate, you can go to the North Gate, I have already ordered them to wait for you outside the North City Gate." ”
Since Zhang Tie began to intentionally cultivate Cao Shuangxi, Cao Shuangxi has begun to have contact with Qiao Shan, Jiang Jianhua and others, and they have slowly become acquainted, and now they are all friends.
"Yes."
Cao Shuangxi nodded at Qiao Shan, and then hugged his fists at Zhang Shun in the hall and said, "My lord, then I'll go first." ”
"Well, let's go."
Zhang Shun waved his hand and asked Cao Shuangxi to hurry up and transport the shield back.
The sooner these shields are handed over to the soldiers, the fewer casualties will be, and the better the chances of victory.
……
Outside the Tara tribe, Bayaf, who had been away from the tribe for nearly a month, finally returned to his tribe with Jebe and the others.
As soon as they stepped into the tribe, Bayaf and the others felt an ominous aura.
Some places of the tribe
The whole Tara tribe seemed lifeless, and from time to time there were women's cries, which were very miserable.
Bayaf and the others, who had just stepped into the tribe, heard so many cries, their faces changed drastically, and their legs clamped between the horse's belly and went to the direction where the cries came from.
In the square of the Tara tribe, Bayar knelt on the ground, muttering to himself, not knowing what he was talking about.
In front of him were the corpses of more than a hundred clansmen, and Hon Hai'er's corpse was among them, placed in front of Bayar.
Beside each corpse, there were still their relatives, holding their corpses and weeping bitterly.
Others were weeping with their clothes, and the bodies of their loved ones were not transported, but were left on the battlefield.
The people who died this time accounted for almost one-third of the warriors of the Tara tribe, and basically every family had a loved one die.
The entire Tara tribe was so immersed in a sea of sorrow that they were unaware of any noise from the outside world.
Ba Taide was hunched over and stood beside Bayar, who was obviously only in his thirties, and at this time he looked like an old man who was about to enter the earth, and his whole person seemed to have lost his soul.
"Huh! Scold! Hehe! ”
Barthade let out a few strange laughs, low and hoarse, as if someone was grabbing his neck.
"It's over, it's all over, the tribe that my brother has worked hard for all his life is gone."
Mu Ran looked at Bayar, who was kneeling on the ground, and a look of regret flashed in Battade's eyes.
If I had been more resolute and even knocked Bayard unconscious, maybe not so much would have happened! ’
If only time could be turned back! ’
It's a pity that things have happened, there is no regret medicine in the world, there is no time machine, everything is already doomed.
It was not that Barthade did not blame Bayar, but he felt that his own fault was far greater than Bayar's.
Remembering his brother's instructions before leaving, Barthade closed his eyes in pain.
Swish!
The scimitar at his waist was drawn by Barthade, and he was about to wipe it towards his neck.
'Ahhe, I can't stand you! ’
Bayar, who was kneeling on the ground, heard the sound of the scimitar being drawn out behind him, and his body instinctively wanted to turn around, but he was suppressed by Bayar.
He thought that Ba Tai was going to kill him, and Bayard was also very self-blaming for the mistakes he had made, especially Hon Hai'er's death, and hated himself even more.
'Ah He, don't worry, I'll be with you soon. ’
Swish! Bite!
Just as the scimitar in Barthade's hand was about to slit his throat, an iron arrow knocked down the scimitar in Barthade's hand, knocking the scimitar into the air and landing in front of Bayard.
Although the arrow saved Battad in time, Bartade's neck still showed a shallow blood mark.
The blood stains on the scimitar made Bayard stunned, and subconsciously looked behind him, saw the wound on Battade's neck, and looked at Battade in a daze.
"Uncle!"
"Brother! What are you doing! ”
Two voices rang out at the same time, one was Bayar, and the other was Bayyaf, who had just returned from the Kereh tribe.
