After sneaking to a dirt slope, Da Kui quietly looked at the bonfire again, and was suddenly shocked.

Where is this bonfire, I can only see the bonfires scattered within a radius of hundreds of zhang. Each bonfire was surrounded by five or six soldiers, roughly estimated to be nearly a thousand people. Just far away, there was a dirt slope blocking the view, so I missed the inspection. But sneaking to the left is a glimpse of the whole leopard.

Da Kui knew that he had inadvertently found the remnants of Aodun, and he couldn't help but rejoice in his heart. In the night, Da Kui quietly retreated, and ran along the way he came. Back in the pine forest, Da Kui put down the rabbit in his hand, and then told Kang Maocai in detail what he had seen. Kang Maocai not only asked eagerly, "How far are the Yuan soldiers from here?"

Da Kui smiled and said: "General Kang doesn't need to worry too much, the Yuan soldiers are fifty miles according to this, and even if they rush over, it will be dawn." Saying that, Da Kui thought for a while before saying, "But we stay here for the night, and we are afraid of complications." If you set off tonight, you won't stop on the way. After arriving in Lanzhou, General Kang led the troops to come, and I stayed here to investigate the movements of the Yuan army. ”

Kang Maocai not only asked anxiously: "The general is here alone, I'm afraid it's inappropriate." ”

Da Kui smiled slightly and said, "Although there are many Yuan soldiers, they can't help me." You just have to go with confidence, I am here to entangle the Auror soldiers. ”

Yang Xiaohu beside him not only said: "My father-in-law is here, and I will stay too." ”

Da Kui said: "You go with General Kang, I am enough here alone." ”

Kang Maocai groaned slightly, and couldn't help but say: "The defeated army of Aodun traveled all the way to the west, it seems that he is going to bypass Lanzhou and rush to the Western Regions, and he is going to defect to Timur of Kuangko. If this is the case, we can wait for the troops to move in Lanzhou to meet in Dingxi, and then wait for the labor to annihilate the remnants of the Aodun army. ”

Da Kui nodded yes, and the three of them woke up the soldiers and set off overnight.

Da Kui looked at the team and walked away, so he rode his horse and galloped back.

Although the north wind is howling and cold and biting, although the night is like water, thousands of mountains and twilight snow, but Da Kui's heart is a fiery ball.

The 1,000 remnants of the army led by Aurdun are now at the end of their crossbows, and they only need to be annihilated before the war can be temporarily subsided.

Timur is far away in Mobei, and now he is afraid that it is difficult to save the ...... near the fire.

The sun rises in the east, adding a bit of warmth to the vast and cold earth.

Aodun got out of the makeshift grass hut, first stretched out in the morning sun, and then slowly walked towards the gathered soldiers.

"Listen, I'll go all the way west, and then turn to Dingxi. bypass Lanzhou and then march to the Western Regions, and when you arrive in Mobei, naturally there is wine, meat and women, do you understand?"

Since the defeat of Pingliang, they have been hiding in Tibet and saving their lives until now, if they can really bypass Lanzhou and rush to Mobei, it will really be an eye-opener. Some soldiers have forgotten when the last meal was eaten, and the thousand-yuan army at this moment is hungry and cold, and they are all hoping to have a place to live.

Aodun looked at the soldiers in front of him and shouted, "Let's go now." ”

The Yuan army was busy and was about to pull out, when suddenly a captain rushed to Aodun: "The general is not good, our horses are gone." ”

"What?" Audun grabbed the captain by the collar and waved him to the ground.

This captain is the head of the horseman in the army, who is in charge of the domestication of war horses, and this man was in charge of grazing horses last night.

Seeing that Ao Dun was angry, Wu Chang hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Proud General Rong, a small wrong." ”

Aodun pressed his hand on the handle of the knife, and his eyes were round: "There is a fart, let it go, what is going on?"

Wu Chang just passed, it turned out that this guy took more than ten subordinates to let the horses go down last night, and he was lazy during the period. I found a leeward place to sleep, and only told my subordinates to go down and graze. Unexpectedly, when I woke up in the morning, hundreds of military horses and more than a dozen subordinates were gone.

Now it's lively, the Yuan soldiers are already hungry and cold, and now there are no war horses, and this thousands of miles away is afraid that they will suffer from the trek.

Aodun asked coldly, "You're done?"

When Wu Chang saw that Aodun's face was not good, he was shocked like a chick for a while.

Aodun pulled out his saber with a 'brush', and without saying a word, the sword fell in his hand, and the captain was already in a different place before he could scream. After killing this dereliction of duty, Ao Dun looked at his subordinates, and said in a half-loud voice: "A team of every 100 people, look around to see if there are any clues." Hundreds of war horses have disappeared in vain, and someone must have done something wrong. General Ben is going to capture this man alive!"

All the soldiers received the order in unison, and each went separately to find the war horse and the missing more than ten soldiers.

Aodun was already anxious, and the loss of the war horse added fuel to the fire. I couldn't help but be angry, and I hurried back and forth in front of the straw hut door. The guards who accompanied him didn't dare to pant loudly, for fear that one would accidentally annoy Aodun, and a meal would be a small matter, and a big loss of head would be a big matter.

It was not until noon that a soldier who had gone to look for horses came to report that a large number of horses' hooves had been found five miles to the south.

Hearing this, Aodun hurriedly ordered: "Pass my general order and gather all the departments." Follow the horse's hoof prints for me, and if you catch a horse thief, you must bring it to me. ”

The soldier received the order, hurriedly turned around and ran to give the order.

Da Kui rode on a horse, listening to the sound of hooves behind him, but it was like hearing fairy music. He tethered hundreds of horses in a row, and his mount saddle could lead hundreds of horses around with only the reins of a head horse tied to it.

Last night, after he had taken care of ten soldiers, he drove his horses all the way south, first galloping on his horses, and then walking slowly and leisurely. The saddlebags of these hundreds of horses contained a lot of things, in addition to gold and silver trays and dry food and water bags.

Da Kui was eating and drinking while walking, and before he knew it, he came to a mountain.

There was a cry of sheep, and then from the foot of the hill came a flock of sheep, followed by a young man, about thirteen or fourteen years old. The young man was dressed in a sheepskin jacket and a pair of torn cotton trousers underneath, and he seemed to be a shepherd for a large family.

Da Kui stepped forward to block the way of the sheep, the young man didn't seem to have seen the world, and when he saw Da Kui wearing a military uniform and armor, he couldn't help but stand on the spot.

"Little brother, don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person. Da Kui said with a smile. The shepherd didn't speak, still looking at Da Kui in a daze.

"What kind of place is this? Why are there so many sheep?" Da Kui looked at the sheep and wondered in his heart, who can have so many sheep in this panic?

The shepherd replied boldly: "This is the West Mountain Range, and the sheep belong to Zhang Datou's family." ”

Da Kui not only smiled and asked, "Which one is Zhang Datou?"

The shepherd scratched his head and said, "Zhang Datou is the largest proprietor in this vicinity, and the mountains and forests near here belong to his family." ”

Da Kui suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "Coincidentally, I am also surnamed Zhang." What's your name?"

Seeing Da Kui's amiable face, the shepherd was no longer afraid.

"My name is Zhang Ergou, and everyone in our village is surnamed Zhang. Zhang Ergou was quite likable, and he smiled and showed a pair of tiger teeth.

Da Kui inadvertently saw a bloody mark on Zhang Ergou's arm, and couldn't help asking, "I am a god, do you believe it?"

Zhang Ergou is a child's heart, and said with a smile when he heard this: "You are a general, how can you still be a god?"

Da Kui laughed and said, "Then if I calculate correctly, you have to do one thing for me." ”

Zhang Ergou agreed, just to see if what Da Kui said was accurate.

Da Kui smiled: "You don't have any relatives at home, right?"

Zhang Ergou's expression darkened, but he smiled in an instant: "You miscalculated, I still have an aunt at home." ”

Da Kui was stunned for a moment, and he still defended himself: "I'm talking about my parents." ”

Zhang Ergou had tears in his eyes when he heard this, but he didn't answer. Da Kui knew that he had guessed seven or eight points correctly, and then he said: "Your family is poor and can't live, so you work long hours at Zhang Datou's house." ”

Zhang Ergou wiped his tears and argued: "The sheep I put are all here, this is obvious, don't count." ”

Da Kui smiled and said, "Zhang Datou's family treats you badly and often beats you, isn't it?"

Hearing this, Zhang Ergou stretched out his hand and pulled the sleeve, which was already short, and the whip marks on his arm were clear and dazzling, but he didn't want to be seen by others.

Da Kui smiled and asked, "Am I right?"

Zhang Ergou thought about it, but said stiffly: "Even if you are right, then can you calculate how many wives Zhang Datou has?"

Da Kui was stunned when he heard this, and reached out and touched his chin, but it was not good to talk nonsense. He didn't know that Zhang Datou, how could he know how many wives he had? But Da Kui smiled and said, "I guess that Zhang Datou must be a great good man." ”

Da Kui didn't say that it was okay, as soon as he said that Zhang Datou was a good person, Zhang Ergou suddenly cried: "He is a bad person, he is a bad person!"

Seeing Zhang Ergou's expression, Da Kui couldn't help asking: "You are free-range for others, why do you say that they are bad people?"

Zhang Ergou didn't answer, but lost the whip in his hand but squatted on the ground and cried.

Da Kui's heart softened, and immediately turned over the saddle and dismounted the horse to separate the sheep and walked in front of Zhang Ergou, looking at Zhang Ergou who was squatting on the ground and crying, Da Kui knew that he must have something unspeakable, so he also squatted down and asked with a pleasant face: "If you have any grievances, you tell me, and the uncle will help you make the decision." ”

Zhang Ergou cried for a long time, and then suddenly raised his head and asked, "You are a general, you will definitely be able to help me avenge." ”

Da Kui was not only stunned, but couldn't help asking, "You tell me carefully." ”

Only then did Zhang Ergou tell Da Kui what he had happened to him. It turned out that this Ergou's aunt Xin was quite beautiful, and the village bully Zhang Datou coveted Xin's beauty, so he was entangled several times. The Xin family was widowed at home and was forced to go to the eldest brother. Zhang Ergou's father is also an honest farmer, and his sister is bullied but does not dare to come forward.

Zhang Ergou's family owes Zhang Datou dozens of rents, which are all arrears that have been saved for many years. Zhang Datou used this as an excuse to force Zhang Ergou's family to pay rent and take back the land of Zhang Ergou's family. Zhang Ergou's father was forced to persuade his sister to remarry Zhang Datou and make a partial house, so as to ensure that the whole family would not starve to death.

Zhang Datou's family raised a group of evil slaves, who bullied men and women on weekdays. On the same day, he followed Zhang Datou to the door to force rent, and Hu Biao, the nurse, took a fancy to Zhang Ergou's mother. One day, when Zhang Ergou's father was out, Hu Biao sneaked into Zhang's house and killed Zhang Ergou's mother. Zhang Ergou's father came to the door to theorize, but was beaten to death by Hu Biao.
