Chapter 8: The Storm of Prisoner Sacrifice
Bao Yuanqian looked at the mysterious black-robed man in the distance, but he didn't have the heart to say anything more, this place is extremely dangerous, but it is not a place to be happy.
There are many horses, but they are imminent.
They only picked four horses, and Bao Butong was not lightly injured in the foot, but he was still able to ride the horses, and with the assistance of Bao Yuanqian, the horses were delivered.
And although Na Bi Che Che is thin and senile, but after all, he is a native of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and it is not a problem to simply ride a horse, as for Sarenya, Bao Yuanqian picked a fast horse for her, no longer restrained her, and let her ride alone.
Although Bao Butong objected, he was afraid that she would run away, but Bao Yuanqian looked at his injured younger brother, who was in his life for the rest of his life, and his psychology changed.
Whether Sarenya runs or not has nothing to do with him. As those comrades said, even if the prisoners are sacrificed back, it will still make the merit of the Shangguan more generous.
As for the jade seal of the country, although he thought about it last night, he knew the truth of his guilt very well, and he was chased and killed like this when he got a little bit of the jade seal of the country.
Now he just wants to find the way back to Jiayuguan as soon as possible, so that his younger brother, who has lost a lot of blood, can be treated.
The four men and four horses chose a general direction and ran forward, and after walking for half an hour, they saw a large winding river flowing north with rolling mud and sand in front of them.
Bao Yuanqian was overjoyed when he saw this, knowing that this was the Heihe River system that originated in the Qilian Mountains, and as long as he traced the source upstream along the Heihe River, he could find the water system of the Lai River that flowed into it.
Find the Zarai River and trace the source for dozens of miles, and you can return to Jiayuguan!!
The four of them galloped, and the horses' hooves were extremely fast, but in an hour they found the Korai River, which flowed into the Black River, and the four turned their horses' heads and headed towards the upper reaches of the Korai River.
As Bao Yuanqian saw yesterday, this Sarenya's riding skills are really good, Mongolian horse martyrdom, but in Sarenya's hands, he is relaxed and quite sophisticated.
Bao Butong looked at the two people suspiciously and cautiously, holding the horn bow in his hand all the time, for fear that these two people would slip away, and he would be a man who would put down an arrow if he couldn't get it!
However, Bao Yuanqian was not worried, because he knew what he had told him thoroughly last night, and he knew that Sa Renya had fled for his life to Daming, and now that Jiayuguan was almost here, where could they go? Died of thirst in the desert or was he caught by Warat?
The reason why he begged for his life and Sarenya's rejection yesterday was because he was afraid that his soldiers would plunder them and dump them in the wilderness, so he pleaded for this.
Now that they have experienced life and death and spent two days together, the two found that they and Bao Butong were not like that, so they would not have this thought, but the younger brother didn't know, and thought that they wanted to escape at any time.
In this way, less than half an hour passed, and finally when there was still a trace of afterglow in the remnant sun on the horizon, I saw the majestic and majestic Jiayuguan City in front of me.
The black mountain on the side exudes dazzling golden light in the golden sun, like a golden mountain of sunshine.
The wind and sand swept the lake wind, and Bao Yuanqian and the others saw that Jiayuguan, which they had only left yesterday, seemed to have passed centuries, and they had encountered too many things in the past two days, experiencing life and death, covered in injuries, hungry and tired.
"Whoever comes, take one step further and we'll let off the arrows!!"
Walking dozens of steps before Jiayu Pass, the soldiers on duty on the city tower saw the four horsemen coming and scolded. And Bao Butong walked from here, the tension in his heart relaxed, and he fell off the horse with a snap and fainted.
"Suzhou guard sentry probe camp horse archers, Bao Yuanqian probe sentry back to the pass, there is an emergency military situation!!"
In the middle of the night, the city gate creaked open, and dozens of Ming troops went out of the city and waited for battle.
The first person checked Bao Yuanqian's waist card, and asked people to take the Bao Butong that Saren Ya and Bi Che were holding and sent to Suzhou Weizhong for treatment.
The three of them entered the city with the army, Bao Yuanqian roughly divided the matter, and the hundred household officials guarding the city learned that this Bao Yuanqian had come back with a princess of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and the officials, and they couldn't help but immediately protect the two of them and wanted to send them to the Suzhou Wei command office.
"Batu, goodbye." When Sarenya left, she left a concise and crisp sentence in Chinese to Bao Yuanqian, and was sent away on a horse.
As for the remaining dozen or so Ming troops who were separated, the hundred households said that the sky was dark, and it was extremely difficult to find them in the vast night desert, and they needed to report to the commander of Suzhou Wei.
Bao Yuan was angry and fought with him.
Brother Gao Xindao and a group of sixteen people went out of the customs, and now they are back two, and these officers stationed there don't care about it, and they all hugged the two Beiyuan captives to invite merit!
It's really cheap as grass, not as good as bullshit!
"Let's go back to your camp and heal your wounds." , Baihu didn't want to entangle with Bao Yuanqian, and waved his hand impatiently.
When Bao Yuanqian thought of his injured and unconscious younger brother, and the missing eldest brother who saw the faces of these people, he was in a hurry, and knocked over the hundred households with one punch.
Handsome for only three seconds, how handsome Bao Yuanqian's beating posture is, how embarrassed he is when he is pressed to the ground by a sergeant,
Bao Yuanqian struggled violently, but he was held down by four sergeants, and he was still injured on his body, and he gritted his teeth in pain and couldn't move.
"Damn, it's against you." , The beaten Baihu rubbed his face, stepped on Bao Yuanqian's face and scolded: "Lanzhu Tartar, if you commit the following crimes, give me twenty military sticks with a cane, and throw them into the military prison to watch first!" Let the people of Suzhou Wei come to lead the people. ”
Jiayuguan and Suzhou Wei are about 50 miles apart, one front and one behind are separated by a river to dislocate the deployment, are two different sub-guard posts.
Jiayuguan is an independent guard of thousands of households, and Suzhou Wei is a guard, the two are not subordinate to each other, and at the same time subordinate to the Shaanxi Xingdu Division, but wartime and the presentation of intelligence need to be controlled by the Suzhou Wei.
In this way, Bao Yuanqian was escorted down and beaten with 20 military sticks, and was thrown into a military prison in Jiayuguan, where he bared his teeth in pain.
Bao Yuanqian was lying on a hay mat and watching the stars outside the prison, and the dark river slowly flowed to the acropolis of Suzhou not far away.
Bao Yuanqian was hungry, sleepy and painful, and began to regret a little, why was he so impulsive, if he was not impulsive, he would have taken his younger brother back to Suzhou Wei, and when he returned home to see Uncle Bao, he could still eat Uncle Bao's dumplings........ Sleep well........
But now he is left in this military prison, the life and death of the eldest brother are uncertain, the younger brother is unconscious, and his freedom is restricted without eating or drinking.
Thinking of the beautiful and moving Sarenya, she must have arrived at Suzhou at this moment, her status is noble, how can she be in a much better situation than herself, sighed, and slapped the earthen bed.
Thinking about this time out of the customs and fighting for the tooth sacrifice, I was really happy and sad, I didn't take a few belongings, even the food and meat were all gone, and I was left with a few horses when I came back.
This transaction is really a loss to his grandmother's hometown!!
Bao Yuanqian touched the inner seam of his armor, and touched a green bead chain, the green gem was extremely transparent, this was one of the goods he obtained, and it was also a gift for Miss Cui, a big family in the Acropolis of Suzhou.
Miss Cui's identity is too different from him, and the Cui family dislikes it. He also wants to prove to the Cui family that he is a person who can get money, not a stinky hill, which is also one of the reasons why he went out to fight his teeth.
He traveled to this era, and he couldn't change the values of this era, so he could only let himself be with the light, go with the flow, and adapt to this era.
He also wants to be in love freely, but who will agree with him?
Bao Yuanqian had a lot of thoughts, from heaven to earth, from men to women, his stomach was growling with hunger, and he thought of the mysterious old man who saved him today, his wound recovered very quickly, Bao Butong did not lose blood to death, most of it was because the old man's knife wound medicine had a miraculous effect.
This person's martial arts are extremely high, his finger power is terrifying, he can bow and four arrows, and it is impossible for one person among the five or six thousand people in the entire Suzhou Wei to do it.
He.... Who is it?
Bao Yuanqian took this doubt, and he didn't know when he fell asleep.
