If Empress Dowager Xiao wants to get rid of Li Yuan's control, she cannot do without the support of the army. Changshan Village is actually an army, but the power of this army is in the hands of Hua Yun, Li Jing and others, and what Xiao Dapeng can mobilize is only Changshan
The strength of the Chariot and Horse Troop. Although there are thousands of people in the Changshan Chariot and Horse Troop, there are only three to five hundred people who have been truly trained and capable of fighting. It is impossible for such a weak force to resist Li Yuan.
Because Jiangdu is an important transit station on the Grand Canal, Xiao Dapeng often traveled between Jiangdu and Yuhang when he was in charge of the Changshan Horse Racing Company. He inevitably had to deal with Wang Shichong, so he met Wang Shichong and also knew that Wang Shichong had someone under his command.
A powerful army. With this relationship, Xiao Dapeng volunteered to come to Jiangdu, hoping to join forces with Wang Shichong to deal with Li Yuan.
Wang Shichong was an ambitious guy and greedy, but he was self-aware and knew very well that he was not Li Yuan's opponent yet, so he resisted Xiao Dapeng's proposal. He only said that he was short of money and food and was unable to launch the Northern Expedition. He vaguely mentioned asking Xiao Dapeng
Transfer the Changshan Carriage and Horse Racing Company to him.
If Changshan Carriage and Horse Racing Shop was really owned by Xiao Dapeng, maybe he would have handed it over. After all, compared with Uncle Guo, the boss of Changshan Carriage and Horse Racing Shop is really nothing to mention. But Changshan Carriage and Horse Racing Shop is not owned by Xiao Dapeng.
What's even more terrible is that Xiao Dapeng found that his control over Changshan Horse Racing Store was getting weaker and weaker. This had something to do with his long-term absence from the horse racing store. More importantly, since he wanted to rob Hou Susu and Chen Fangling,
Gao Xiuer, Wei Zheng and others no longer trusted him, so they secretly placed some other people in Changshan Carriage and Horse Racing. In addition, the Thirteen Taibao were originally loyal to Liu Ziqiu, so it was impossible for Xiao Dapeng to hand over Changshan Carriage and Horse Racing.
To Wang Shichong.
After several repeated contacts, Wang Shichong made another request to help him transport his army across the Yangtze River. Xiao Dapeng's purpose was to let Wang Shichong go north. He was very surprised to hear Wang Shichong's plan. After repeated inquiries, Wang Shichong finally revealed the truth.
He. It turned out that Wang Shichong was interested in the Xie family's family business in Jiangnan.
Xiao Dapeng knew that he was unable to mobilize ships to help Wang Shichong cross the river, but he thought of another way, which was to take advantage of the conflict between Changshan Village and the Xie family to help Wang Shichong come to propose marriage in the name of Changshan Village, causing conflicts between Changshan Village and the Xie family.
The illusion of Wang Shichong's alliance forced the Xie family to submit. He had already boasted in front of Wang Shichong, but unexpectedly met Han Shier at the Xie family. The lie of Changshan Village and Wang Shichong's alliance was naturally broken. In this case, without going through
Xiao Dapeng, who had experienced a lot, became angry and drew his sword at him.
Of course, Xiao Dapeng was confident when he dared to do this. Although the Xie family had a great business, they were absolutely incapable of resisting Wang Shichong's army. He came on behalf of Wang Shichong. If the Xie family went against him, he would probably immediately incur Wang Shichong's revenge.
At this moment, there was only a "choking" sound, Han Shi'e's hand flashed with cold light, and the waist knife in Xiao Dapeng's hand was broken. But it was Han Shi'er who pulled out the protective barrier knife and slashed at Xiao Dapeng. Although the barrier knife was short, it was sharp.
Incomparably, Xiao Dapeng's waist knife was cut off with just one blow. Xiao Dapeng was caught off guard, and Han Shi'e's barrier knife was put on his neck.
In fact, just as Xiao Dapeng expected, Xie Wengshan and his son had always been worried about Wang Shichong's revenge, and they could only swallow their anger in the face of Wang Shichong's repeated harassment. Now seeing the conflict between Han Shier and Xiao Dapeng, Xie Wengshan was still uneasy and said hurriedly: "The two countries are at war and we are not going to kill them."
, Mr. Han, it’s better to stop.”
This is the Xie family, but Han Shi'er didn't dare to be too rude, so he had to put away his sword and said coldly: "Xiao Dapeng, I hope you can take care of yourself and turn around."
"Thank you, old man, you will regret it!" Seeing that he had the sword in his hand, Xiao Dapeng did not dare to show off with force anymore. He "hummed" in fear and threw away his sleeves.
Xie Wengshan frowned deeply. Xie Yun gritted his teeth and said, "Father, why not move south!"
Han Shi'e laughed and said: "It's hard to leave our homeland, why did Mr.
Go back and organize the troops. If Wang Shichong dares to come, he will never come back!"
In the nunnery in the backyard of Xie's family, Xie Zhiwu, who had just received the news, rushed in excitedly and shouted: "Little sister, little sister, Liu Ziqiu has sent someone to deliver a betrothal gift! You'd better grow your hair and return to secular life as soon as possible."
Xie Muyu clasped her hands together and sang the Buddha's name: "The poor nun has made up his mind. There is no need for the donor to persuade you. Please come back!"
…
The Mulin tribe in the Mobei grassland is holding a grand bonfire party. The elders of the tribe led by Mulin are welcoming the arrival of Liu Ziqiu's army.
One day ago, when Liu Ziqiu and Mu Duoli appeared outside the tribal camp, Mullin was really surprised. He originally thought that his daughter had long been reduced to a slave of the Han people, and it was difficult to even say whether his life could be saved. Now, his daughter is actually
He was naturally overjoyed when a military uniform appeared in front of him. However, there was also a tall Han general with his daughter.
There have been widespread rumors recently about a group of Han cavalry appearing on the grasslands and destroying Turkic camps everywhere. Just because he was worried that his tribe would be attacked by Han cavalry, Mullin only took 10,000 cavalry with him when he went to Qikou. He and
Du Mi's fight in the camp was fake, but his real purpose was to find an excuse to sneak back to his tribe. He had no intention of going to Yanmen to work for Du Mi Shi.
When Mullin saw the Han general beside his daughter, he knew that the news of Han cavalry appearing on the grassland was not a legend, but that there was such an army. This army looted Qi Lifa's camp and kidnapped him.
His daughter defeated Qi Lifa's pursuers, and now they are making a comeback, which is not a good thing for him. However, when Mullin saw that the opponent's soldiers were few, he made a prompt decision and ordered someone to blow the horn and send the cavalry, which had only a few dozen people, to
The team surrounded them. Tens of thousands of bows and arrows were aimed at the dozens of people surrounded, including his daughter. As long as Mullin gave the order, these dozens of people would be shot into hedgehogs.
At this moment, Liu Ziqiu suddenly flew up from his horse. Yes, it was indeed flying. And his movements were too fast. Before anyone could react, he had already jumped over everyone's heads and landed lightly on Mullin's horse.
On top, he swung the long knife in his left hand, cutting off the scimitars that dozens of guards around him had hurriedly pulled out. The barrier knife in his right hand was already pressed against Mullin's throat.
Mullin was shocked and asked repeatedly: "What are you going to do?"
Liu Ziqiu smiled and said: "My son-in-law is here to pay homage to my father-in-law. Is this how my father-in-law treats guests?"
Mullin was thinking a lot, and waved his hands gently to his knights, asking them to put away their bows and arrows and retreat.
Turkic women are not particular about staying the same. Although Qilifa is not dead yet, his tribe has ceased to exist in name only and has long lost the qualification to compete for the throne of Turkic Khan. And Duji was in his prime, if he did not encounter anything special
incident, there is no need to consider the issue of the next khan for the time being. In this way, Mullin's tribe will definitely not be able to become the queen's tribe, and it is no longer important who his daughter marries. The most important thing now is his life.
If he is in the hands of this Han man, and if he uses force, he himself will be the first to suffer misfortune. As for whether his daughter will voluntarily follow this Han man, it is no longer within his scope to consider.
When Liu Ziqiu saw this, he also put away his sword and said with a smile: "My father-in-law is frightened. Don't you plan to invite your son-in-law to sit in the camp?"
With a straight face, Mullin stretched out his hand and said loudly: "Please!"
Liu Ziqiu waved to Mu Duoli, who urged her horse to come. Liu Ziqiu jumped on Mu Duoli's horse, bowed his hand to Mu Lin, and said: "My son-in-law has offended many people, please forgive me. Father-in-law."
Please come first, sir!"
Mu Lin didn't expect Liu Ziqiu to let him go completely, and had a secret thought. As long as he rode his horse to escape farther, he could order Liu Ziqiu and his men to be shot to death, but he quickly gave up this idea because according to what he heard
According to the news, this Han cavalry numbered tens of thousands, definitely not the dozens of people in front of them. If these dozens of people were killed, it would probably lead to crazy revenge from the Han people, which would be more than worth the loss for the entire tribe.
Thinking of this, Mullin returned the salute and said: "Please, brave man!"
He hasn't figured out Liu Ziqiu's identity yet, so of course he can't admit this son-in-law.
Liu Ziqiu did not continue to be humble and patted Mu Duoli lightly on the shoulder. Mu Duoli lifted the reins and the horse walked towards the camp. When passing by Mu Lin, Mu Duoli suddenly said a few words in Turkic language.
Liu Ziqiu couldn't understand what he said. However, after listening to Mu Duoli's words, Mu Lin had a strange look on his face. Liu Ziqiu did not ask what Mu Duoli said. He had absolute trust in his woman. If Mu Duo
Li really dared to betray him, and he was confident that he could fight his way out of the thousands of troops. At that time, the only one who would suffer would be Mu Duoli herself.
When they arrived outside Mu Lin's tent, Liu Ziqiu jumped off the horse with Mu Duoli in his arms. Mu Duoli finally couldn't help but asked: "Master, you really don't want to know what the slave just said to Father Khan?"
Mullin was in charge of a large tribe of 20,000 fine cavalry, and he also deserved the title of khan, but this khan was not the other khan, and he was not the same as the khan of the entire Eastern Turks.
Liu Ziqiu shook his head and said, "I want to know what to do about the whispers between your father and daughter."
At this time, Mullin also jumped off his horse, but his attitude became extremely enthusiastic and respectful. He carefully pointed back and said, "Master Liu, please come in with your subordinates."
Obviously, Mu Duoli had just revealed Liu Ziqiu's identity to Mu Lin. But it was just to reveal her identity, and there was no need for Mu Lin to be so humble to Liu Ziqiu. Liu Ziqiu looked at Mu Duoli suspiciously, and she must have said something else.
