Chapter 41 is caught in the net

"The master said that those who are happy with the people, the people are also happy, those who are worried about the people, the people are also worried, and now there are so many hopeless troops in the border area, which means that there are big problems in the army or government of the border area."

Keiko is feeling that the problem of this plug may be very serious.

"The master said before I came out to practice, and the next thing is the world of great controversy, but even so, my Huaxia artifact should not be peeped at by the grassland barbarians."

Li Yi's eyes were sharp, although he was not a nationalist as Tai Jizi said, but he also knew that once the grassland tribe went south, the result would be that the lives of the people of Dayu would be ruined.

Conquest and slaughter are the foundation of the survival of the grassland tribes, and the barbarism of the grassland tribes will only bring blood and fire to the Dayu Dynasty and the people of China.

They only think of conquest and attack, they don't value construction and stability.

Therefore, in any case, Li Yi did not want to see Da Yu eventually replaced by the grassland tribe.

"Senior brother is cautious, it is a big sin to talk about the change of the dynasty in vain, and we and other people should be loyal to the monarch and patriotic when reading the books of the sages, and when the country is in danger, we should work together to overcome the difficulties and recreate the prosperous era of my Dayu Haiyan River."

"But if it was really the defenders of the Biansai that caused the emergence of so many hopeless troops, what would you do, senior brother?"

Li Yi looked at the impassioned Jingzizheng and asked.

"If that's the case, I'll write to the Holy God to severely punish the lawlessness, and return the people of Youzhou to Lang Lang."

"You are a scholar who doesn't even have fame, how can you reach the heavens?"

Li Yi continued to ask.

"Then I will write a letter to the people and go to Beijing in person to ask for a meeting."

Jing Zizheng's tone was still firm, but his speed of speech became a little faster.

"Then what if someone prevents you from going to school when you enter the Beijing Division?"

Li Yi's speed of speech also sped up a few points.

"There are traitors in the court, and those of us who are studying can unite with the scholars of the world to ask the emperor to clear the king's side."

"The master said that Xiucai rebelled for three years and failed, isn't it ridiculous that you still want to clear the monarch without military power."

Li Yi felt that although his senior brother was witty, as a scholar who wanted to gain fame, he had a deep-rooted fear and support for imperial power.

"You can win thousands of armies with a lot of mouths, you can open a thousand cities with a sword and pen, and the power of a person who reads is not something you can understand."

Keiko retorted immediately.

"Well, even if you succeed in clearing the king's side, your book of all the people has successfully reached the emperor's hands, but what if the emperor refuses to punish the culprit on the grounds that the situation in the border fortress endangers the morale of the army?"

Li Yi asked the last question in a sonorous voice.

"This!"

Keiko was silent, he didn't know how to answer the question.

After a long time, he sighed slowly, then stood up and walked towards the busy Yang caravan.

"We'll talk about it then!"

Li Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head, he was different from Jingzi, his thoughts were deeply influenced by Tai Jizi.

In his view, the destiny of heaven is impermanent, only the virtuous live in it, and the change of dynasty is caused by natural disasters and man-made disasters, especially man-made disasters.

At the beginning, Tai Jizi was explaining these truths to him, and at that time, he thought that this was a bit rebellious.

But when he came out to travel, he found that what Tai Jizi said was indeed the truth of the world.

It seems that this Dayu Dynasty is because of the drought for many years, which has caused the people to live poorly, and the people are miserable.

But along the way, he saw a large number of bandits, all of which were due to the oppression of the local government and wealthy households.

Those rich families live a luxurious life like the Qiao family, and from time to time they do something to bully men and women and disregard people's lives.

And the people at the bottom can only endure helplessly, until they can't bear it anymore, they can only riot and kill people.

Society soon fell into chaos in this deformed state.

And the most fundamental reason is that the aristocratic class represented by the imperial power does not care about the life and death of the people, but only cares about their own pleasure.

When Li Yi realized this, he had already lost his reverence for the imperial power and the aristocratic class, but he did not reach the point of rebellion like them.

However, Jing Zizheng has been familiar with the books of sages and sages over the years, and his cognition of the three outlines and five constants, fathers, fathers, sons, kings, ministers, and ministers is already deep-rooted.

But the sad thing is that although he wanted to take the road of the imperial examination to enter the court Kuangfu Sheji, but the mandate of heaven did not cause him to fail repeatedly.

But even that didn't change his ambitions.

And today, Li Yi's question has planted a seed in Jing Zizheng's heart, whether it can germinate, and when it will germinate, can only be left to fate.

Today's conversation also made Li Yi clearly understand that although the Dayu Dynasty has decayed and seems to be collapsing at any time, there are still many people like Jing Zizheng among the people of the Dayu Dynasty who still have hope for the dynasty.

"That being the case, and see if the world is as the master said, it is already boiling with fish, and it is in danger!"

Li Yi stood up and turned around and went down the cliff, leaving only Qi Chao and Qi Ning to guard the secret posts.

The sunset shone on the earth, and the golden sun swept across the land quickly with the westward setting, and the cold moon began to envelop the darkness and slowly cover the sky.

At this time, everyone in the Yang caravan had basically completed the arrangement of the trap.

I have to say that as the leader of the bandits, although Ansu did not show up, he contributed many constructive suggestions.

As An Su, who had just suffered a loss from traps, he taught all the traps he knew to Qi Ning without reservation.

Although the sage said that you should not do to others what you do not want to be done, Ansu believes that it is better to be happy alone than to be happy with all, and the losses you suffer in the trap must be shared with you, which is the way of life.

So there were many different kinds of traps arranged by the people of the Yang caravan on this mountain road, and if it weren't for the lack of time, Ansu would have wanted the people of the Yang caravan to cover the entire road with traps.

At this time, most of the convoy of the Yang caravan was on the road a few hundred meters away from here, and it could be seen from a distance, leaving four carriages here.

The wheels of the four carriages were all stuck in the potholes of the mountain road, and several horses were standing on the side of the carriage, all with ropes on their bodies, pretending to pull them out.

Seeing that it was getting late, Li Yi jumped onto the cliff on the side of the road in three or two steps, and looked towards the mountains and forests in the distance.

After a while, a faint figure appeared in the mountains and forests in the distance.

Li Yi knew that the Night Wolf Camp had finally arrived.

At this time, Cao Jiangyun in the mountains and forests watched the Hopeless Army silently advance in the direction of the mark, so he took the remaining Night Wolf Battalion cavalry to turn over and move forward slowly, he wanted to keep the cavalry of the Night Wolf Battalion and the Hopeless Army at a certain distance.

Their attack tonight was very simple, without the slightest fancy, and as soon as the Hopeless Army spotted the opposing convoy, they would give a signal.

At that time, the cavalry of their night wolf battalion will be the first to charge, and the Hopeless Army will follow closely behind and cooperate to clear out those panicked convoy guards in the shortest possible time.

Soon the Hopeless Army came to the last marker, and although they did not see the five outposts, the Hopeless Army did not care, and they began to scatter to find traces of the convoy.

Soon four carriages were spotted on the mountain road, which were no longer able to walk, as well as a large group of carriages waiting not far away.

The Hopeless Army should have signaled the cavalry of the Nightwolf Battalion to charge as soon as they spotted the convoy.

But now there were only four pitiful carriages on the mountain road, and a large convoy was blocked in front of them.

If you want to attack a large convoy, you must clear the four wagons, otherwise the convoy in front will likely flee quickly if the cavalry charges.

However, how to clear the four wagons without alarming the convoy ahead was also a problem, which made it impossible for the Hopeless Army to make a choice.

Therefore, they could only send a signal to the Night Wolf to come and take command in person.

Cao Jiangyun, who was still waiting, couldn't help but wonder when he saw that the Hopeless Army was staying in the distance and not taking action.

It wasn't until news came from the Hopeless Army that he learned that there was a problem with the convoy ahead.

Originally, he wanted to have the five outposts called over to ask for money, but the soldiers of the Hopeless Army reported that they did not see the five outposts.

Cao Jiangyun didn't care, he thought that the five secret posts were now monitoring the large convoy not far away.

From the beginning to the end, they never thought that their secret sentry had been arrested, after all, the martial arts of those five people in the Night Wolf Camp were all outstanding, and it was unlikely that they would be wiped out.

After observing the situation for himself, after a little thought, he decided to send a part of the cavalry of the Night Wolf Battalion to cooperate with the Hopeless Army to sneak over and deal with the people in these three or four carriages first.

Then quietly clear the wagons on the road to the side of the road, clearing the way for the cavalry behind to charge.

Soon Cao Jiangyun arranged the cavalry of the three night wolf battalions, and they quietly approached the three or four carriages with a dozen Hopeless Army soldiers.

When they touched the sides of the carriages, they looked closely and found that the wheels of the carriages were sinking into the potholes.

And the two men were pulling the horses and trying to pull the carriage out.

As they approached, they suddenly heard someone talking by the side of the carriage.

"The soil is still too soft to pull up, so let's wait for the temperature to drop and the soil freezes before pulling it."

"Good idea, let's go to the convoy for a bite to eat first, it's really cold on this side."

With that, the two men left the carriage and walked towards the convoy not far away.

"And such a good thing?"

The soldiers of the Night Wolf Battalion, who were in charge of the sneak attack, couldn't help but sigh that their luck was so good, and before he could do it, the guards of the convoy left on their own.

This will save them a lot of trouble.

As soon as the two men were far away, the soldiers of the Night Wolf Battalion immediately ordered the Hopeless Army to pull the four wagons to the side of the road.

Strange to say, just now I watched the two people toss for a long time and failed to pull the carriage out of the pit, but now they can easily pull the carriage out of the pit with a slight pat on the buttocks.

"Looks like even the horses are doing themselves a favor tonight!"

The soldiers of the Night Wolf Battalion sighed secretly in their hearts.

They then led the four wagons to the side of the road, and the road was quickly cleared.

That night, the soldiers of the wolf battalion excitedly drew a short bow from their backs, and then drew a feathered arrow from their boots.

Then he bent his bow and shot it into the air behind him, and a sharp sound rang out in the air.

It turned out that the feather arrow turned out to be a specially made rattling arrow, and once it was fired, it would make a sound in the air.

Cao Jiangyun, who was in the rear, immediately began to ride his horse and gallop on the mountain road, and he wanted to rush to the convoy in the shortest possible time.

Only surprise can panic the convoy guards and leave them without enough time to organize their defensive formation.

As the cavalry of the Night Wolf Battalion began to charge, the Hopeless Army that followed behind also began to rush quickly in the direction of the convoy.

They still maintained the peculiarity of the Hopeless, and the only thing left as they charged was the sound of their footsteps.

Silence is like a military order engraved in the soul of this team.

However, when they rushed past the four carriages parked on the side of the road, they did not notice that several ropes had suddenly hung down from the steep cliff.

When the last Hopeless soldier rushed past the four carriages, Li Yi on the cliff climbed down the cliff with several guards of the Yang caravan along the ropes.

As soon as they landed, they drove all the wagons to the middle of the trail, and then they quickly put the four wagons side by side.

Then they pulled out three long logs from the wheels of the carriage, and cut grooves in all three of them, which were just right to fit into the wheels of the two carriages, and connect the two carriages together.

Soon the four carriages were joined together by the long logs and became a single unit.

At this time, the four carriages had basically occupied more than half of the entire mountain road.

After doing all this, Li Yi quickly lifted the curtain of the carriage and lit a piece of cotton inside.

The flame ran down the cotton wool and quickly ignited the hay heaped in the wagon.

The four carriages became four roaring trains at once.

The horses pulling the cart in front of them were smoky by the heat wave behind them, and immediately began to gallop towards the front.

It wasn't until the burning wagon was rushing forward that neither the Nightwolf Battalion nor the Hopeless Army in front noticed the anomaly behind it.

They were still running fast towards the convoy.

Seeing that the distance between Cao Jiangyunli's convoy was getting closer and closer, he suddenly felt that he flew out with a light on his crotch.

And when he looked back, he found that the cavalry of the Night Wolf Battalion who were running at the front were all flying up like himself.

All the horses under their seats rolled over and landed on their heads.

"Tripping Horse Ditch! Damn it, we were fooled. ”

Cao Jiangyun instantly understood the situation in front of him.

Fortunately, his martial arts skills are good, he rolled in the air, and then continued to roll forward after landing with both feet, easily unloading the force of the forward rush.

And the cavalry of the Night Wolf Battalion also did the same, and all of them landed safely.

But the cavalry behind them was not so lucky.

The moment they noticed that the horse in front of them had fallen to the ground, they subconsciously pulled the reins to slow down the horse.

However, the cavalry behind them did not notice the anomaly in front of them, so they did not have time to slow down before colliding with the horses in front of them.

In an instant, the cavalry flipped on their backs.
