Chapter 371: The Girl Who Was Hunted and Killed
The caravan exited the Great Wall from Dongshengguan and walked through the Yanshan Mountains, where the endless Gobi Desert was in sight, and inside and outside the Great Wall were two different worlds. Thousands of miles of yellow sand, camel bells all the way, the end of the Gobi is still endless yellow sand, and the occasional dotted oasis is a paradise for travelers on their trek.
The official caravan was led by full-time messengers to and from the Central Plains of Beihu, and took the route with the most frequent business travel. Han Fei is not familiar with the geography north of the Great Wall, and how to walk is completely the responsibility of the guide, he just rides on a horse and enjoys the different scenery outside the Saiwai.
There is not a cloud in the sky, only a sea and sky are soaring back and forth, the sun has been westward, looking far away, there is indeed the situation of "the desert is lonely and the smoke is straight, and the sun sets on the long river".
"Report!" A way-finding guard Pegasus rushed to Han Fei and reported: "Master Hou, there are two groups of men and horses fighting over there, depending on the situation, one side is in danger!" ”
"Oh? Lingbenhou went over and took a look! ”
Han Fei ordered the caravan to rest on the spot, led nearly a hundred guards, rushed up a sand dune, and looked into the distance.
Half a mile away, two groups of Hu men were chasing and fighting, one side had dozens of samurai, and the other side was only five, one of whom was a young woman. It can be seen that the five people who were chased and killed were all injured, and the situation was very unfavorable.
A terrible howl came, and among the five people who were pursued, the last one fell into the back of the horse with a sharp arrow through the heart.
Han Fei frowned and asked the guide behind him, "Do you know who they are?" ”
The guide stepped forward, and after careful identification, he replied, "Lord Qiqi, they are all from the Tatar Ministry...... Oh, it turned out to be the lord of the Tatar Department who was hunted down, could it be that there was a rebellion in the Tatar Ministry? ”
Han Fei looked at the two sides who were still chasing and fighting in the distance, and said in a deep voice: "You can introduce the situation of the Tatar Department to Ben Hou, as well as this county lord who was hunted down!" ”
"Yes, Master Hou!" Guide Shi Li said: "The Tatar tribe has a large population, about 500,000 people, and is a relatively powerful tribe in Beihuzhong, because it is close to my Dahua, it has always been very friendly to Dahua, and it has frequent trade with Dahua, and it is also a very wealthy tribe in Beihuzhong. The head of the Tatar tribe was canonized as the king of Shunyi by Dahua, and was given the Han surname Zhao, and there was only one county lord under his knees, Wuyun Qige, whose Han name was Zhao Min. The county lord Zhao Min is smart and beautiful, and has the title of the most beautiful flower on the grassland, and now that the county lord is being hunted down, I am afraid that there is a civil strife in the Tatar department. ”
"King Shunyi has only one Zhao Min county lord under his knees? How is his body? ”
"Lord Hou, the King of Shunyi originally had a son, but he was killed in a battle with other tribes, the King of Shunyi is already very old, and it is said that his health is not very good, it is very likely that the King of Shunyi is gone, and there is a civil strife within the Tatar Ministry for the leader."
During this period of conversation, the situation in the distance deteriorated further, and the remaining three guards of the county lord of Zhao Min killed two more in battle, and the last one followed behind the county lord, wielding a scimitar vigorously to resist the arrows behind.
Han Fei was very entangled at this time, this was an internal rebellion of the Beihu tribe, and the result was to weaken the strength of the Beihu tribe, which was beneficial to Dahua, he was unwilling to intervene, but after thinking about it, the Shunyi King was loyal to Dahua, if the Tatar Ministry changed someone else as the leader, it was difficult to say whether he could continue to be friendly with Dahua. Moreover, after Lord Zhao Min was rescued, he must have been more friendly to Dahua.
"Come on, all the guards will attack immediately, annihilate the traitors who are chasing and killing the county lord Zhao Min, leave no one alive, and save the county lord Zhao Min!"
"Yes!" Nearly 100 brocade-clothed guards outflanked the past in two ways.
Han Fei continued to stand on the sand dunes to watch the battle, and the last guard of the county lord Zhao Min finally lost his support and fell off his horse, Zhao Min was also hit by an arrow in his back, lying on the horse's back, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. Just when the chasing Hu warriors rushed to the horse of Zhao Min County Lord and were about to swing their knives to kill Zhao Min County Lord, Jin Yiwei rushed to the front with a shout.
"Dahua sergeant, we are Tatar ......" The rebellious warrior of the Tatar tribe recognized it as Dahua soldier and tried to explain, and then disappeared into the shouting and killing of the Jinyi guard.
In the face of absolute strength, the battle was just a one-sided slaughter, but in a quarter of an hour, the battle was over, and all the Hu warriors who chased and killed Zhao Min were killed on the spot. Some of the Jinyi guards cleaned up the battlefield, and some escorted Zhao Min to Han Fei.
"Master Hou, Lord Zhao Min has been hit by an arrow and is unconscious!"
Han Fei rushed to Zhao Min's horse, checked it, and shouted: "Set up camp on the spot, Benhou wants to save Zhao Min's county lord!" ”
The most serious thing for Lord Zhao Min is an arrow wound, but fortunately, this arrow deviated from the back of the heart by half a point, otherwise it would have been burned.
Han Fei left Beijing this time, with a first-aid kit and various emergency medicines, and after the tent was set up, he immediately operated on Lord Zhao Min, took out the arrows, and bandaged other wounds.
After the operation was completed, the anesthesia disappeared, and the severe pain caused Lord Zhao Min to snort in pain and wake up.
Seeing Zhao Min's figure twisting, Han Fei hurriedly pressed her shoulder, and shouted softly: "Don't move, the county lord has just stitched and bandaged the arrow wound on your back, if the wound collapses, it will be troublesome!" ”
Zhao Min heard the man speak, her heart was shocked, and the person was completely sober, she pulled her hand to remove the quilt on the side of her head, and stood up slightly, at this time she suddenly found that she was not wearing clothes on her upper body, she exclaimed, and turned her head to glare at Han Fei angrily.
"You have arrow wounds and knife wounds in your back, and you also have knife wounds of varying degrees on your shoulders and waist, so in order to treat your injuries, you have to do it urgently!"
Zhao Min realized that he had misunderstood Han Fei, a layer of blush swelled up on his cheeks, and he said ashamedly: "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you...... Are you Han? Thank you for saving your life! ”
"The county lord doesn't need to thank you, you and I are both courtiers of the court, and we should help each other!"
"The Imperial Court? Are you the minister of Dahua? ”
"I am the Marquis of Dahua Zhongyi......"
"Ah, you are Lord Zhongyi Hou Han who led the team into the Northland to trade tea and horses?"
Since Zhao Min is the daughter of King Shunyi, the leader of the Tatar tribe, it is not surprising to know the news of Han Fei's entry into Beihu. Han Fei bowed his head and said: "It's Ben Hou!" ”
Zhao Min stretched out his hand and grabbed Han Fei's arm, and said excitedly: "Master Hou, please report to the imperial court to send troops to avenge my father!" ”
"Lord Zhao and relax, the king of Shunyi is loyal to the imperial court, Dahua will not let it go, you first tell Ben Hou what happened to the Tatar Department!"
"Lord Hou, my father is seriously ill, and he wants to pass the throne to me, and he convenes the main leaders of the tribe to discuss, but he hates Lakshen, a traitor, who relied on his father's trust to control most of the tribe's military power, and even took the opportunity to launch a rebellion, besieged other leaders, forced his father to pass the throne to him, and forced me to marry him, my father was so angry that he vomited blood and died on the spot, and I broke through the siege and escaped under the protection of my henchmen. I wanted to flee to Dahua and ask the court to send troops to avenge my father, but I didn't want to be caught up by the traitors, if it wasn't for the Hou Ye to save me, I would have died with hatred! ”
Han Fei said in a deep voice: "The county lord will first recuperate from his injuries with peace of mind, and this marquis will definitely assist the county lord to kill the rebels and regain the throne!" ”
