In an instant, Tie Mo jumped up and rushed over like a cheetah. He kicked Caika aside and reached out to pull Zhang Yan over.
The change came too suddenly, just in an instant.
When others reacted, they saw more than 20 well-dressed men rushing towards them from a distance, one of whom was holding a long sword, and others were holding strong bows.
These people quickly surrounded Tie Mo and Zhang Yan and backed away little by little.
At this time, Chaika's whole body was overwhelmed by fear. He covered his shoulders and looked at everything in front of him in disbelief, "How could it be? These people..."
"Guika, do you really think that Mr. Tie is stupid enough to come alone? If he doesn't attract your attention, how can Mr. Tie save someone?"
Tie Mo was protecting Zhang Yan behind him when Mengmeng came over with a machete in his mouth. He picked up the machete and turned it over, pointing at Caika sarcastically, "I said, if you touch a hair of hers,
I will make your life worse than death."
"Brothers of Sunit, stand aside wisely, otherwise, the only thing waiting for you is death!"
Tie Mo stared at the past angrily. Many Mongolians were so frightened that they took two steps back and instinctively dropped the weapons in their hands. Seeing this scene, Chaika roared in anger, "You idiots, pick up the knives. Pick them up."
ah......"
But at this time, who still pays attention to the clamor of Caika? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Caika has gone crazy, and if he persists, it will be a dead end.
Tie Mo glanced at the sand sculpture next to him and said with a smile: "I'll leave the guessing card to you. Treat him well."
The sand sculpture chuckled and said with an evil look: "Don't worry, I guarantee that he will not die within a month, and I will entertain him in different ways."
Arrows shot into the sky, and the army that had been waiting outside gathered around. Tie Mo protected Zhang Yan and returned to Zhang Bei, while Chaika also became a prisoner.
Caika wants to die, but his teeth are knocked out and his hands are tied. At this moment, even suicide becomes a luxury.
From this day on, many people heard screams coming from Zhangbei Military Camp Prison, which made people's hearts tremble.
...
After returning to Zhangbei, it took several days for Zhang Yan to recover from the sudden change. The motorcade set off on its return journey again, but this time Tie Mo personally took her to Zhangjiakou.
In the twelfth lunar month of winter, the cold wind blew against my cheeks, like thin knives.
The cold wind in the north drove the years, cutting off the smiles and tenderness on people's faces. Tie Mo stood in the cold wind and waved his hand towards the carriage in the distance.
The woman in the carriage held the window and stared at the person seeing him off. The two parties got further and further away until they disappeared.
Sitting in the carriage, Zhang Yan wrapped herself in a cloak and narrowed her eyes tiredly.
Many days have passed, but every time I close my eyes, everything that happened that day always flashes through my mind.
In fear and despair, that man came alone. He was like a light in the darkness, igniting a glimmer of hope in the fragile heart.
I haven't felt that kind of strong masculinity for many years.
...
Under the city gate of Zhangjiakou, Hei Yunlong took off his hat and breathed a long sigh of relief, "Hey, the empress is finally safe. If something happens to her, the brothers will go to the prison to visit me."
"Brother Yunlong, this time it all depends on my little brother's hard work. You have to treat me to a good meal!"
"It should, it should." Hei Yunlong laughed loudly, pulled Tie Mo's sleeves, and everyone entered the city.
During the dinner, the topic of ordnance inevitably came up. Li Jiasheng puffed his tongue and breathed out the smell of alcohol, "Xian brother, how is the ordnance transaction going?"
"This is still being prepared. Datong Mansion has sent a lot of swords and guns. They need to be carefully screened. Some of the good quality can be kept for your own use! We don't have to worry about this matter. The one who is worried should be Dorgon.
right!"
Li Jiasheng nodded and lowered his voice somewhat mysteriously, "We are not in a hurry, but we are afraid that things will change if we are too late. If some people get wind of it, we will not be able to complete this business."
"Who? In this part of northern Shanxi, is there anyone who dares to bring trouble on our brothers?"
Ma Fang immediately glared. Nowadays, in this area of northern Shanxi, it can be said that they have the final say. They don't buy anyone's account except Mr. Hou. Ma Fang really doesn't think anyone dares to make trouble in northern Shanxi.
Seeing that Li Jiasheng drank a little too much, Hei Yunlong took over his words and replied: "Not Gao Jie, the new prefect of Taiyuan."
"The people from General Man's side were not careful in their work, and Gao Jie got wind of it. This old boy is not an economical lamp. If he gets the handle, we will all be in trouble!"
Tie Mo said angrily: "It's this Gao Jie again. These snarky Confucians are not very good at doing business. They want to make their own people stronger than others. We are just using some discarded rags to deceive the Jurchens. This matter
Do they have to take care of me too?"
Hei Yunlong curled his lips and smiled angrily, "They are too lazy to care about this shit. They are just looking for an excuse to interfere in the affairs of Xuanfu. How much sand has been mixed in the Datong Mansion since Commander Qu was taken down?
?”
Tie Mo suddenly came to his senses, held his chin and thought for a while, his expression became serious, "Someone wants to touch Mr. Hou?"
Hei Yunlong nodded solemnly, "Yes, our General Hou has a good relationship with General Qu and Governor Zhang. Later, when the eunuchs were cleared and surrendered, those people did not get the evidence and could not deal with General Hou."
Take action. However, they have never given up on attacking General Hou. If General Hou hadn't dealt with it carefully, they might have been captured."
"This group of people are simply a bunch of mad dogs. They bite everyone they see. As long as you don't vent your anger with them, you are an eunuch. You may not believe it. A few months ago, two censors wrote a letter of impeachment.
Governor Sun, said that Governor Sun had contacts with Wei Zhongxian!"
Having said this, Hei Yunlong laughed angrily.
Tie Mo shook his head secretly after hearing this. He was really crazy. He even dared to bite Sun Chengzong. If Sun Chengzong had not been the emperor's master and Chongzhen had great trust in him, he might have been captured.
The reason for impeachment is really ridiculous. When Sun Chengzong was the governor of Ji Liao, some things must not go around Wei Zhongxian. Is it strange to have contacts with Wei Zhongxian? Does having contact with Wei Zhongxian mean that he is an eunuch? If that is the case,
Half of the so-called iron-bone Qingliu in the court had to be taken down. At that time, many of these people secretly had contacts with Wei Zhongxian.
"Okay, let's drink. We can't care about the bad things in the court. As long as the court doesn't touch General Hou and our little family property, it has nothing to do with us!"
Several people sighed and continued drinking.
...
The twelfth lunar month, with the sudden cold weather, is getting closer and closer to the New Year.
Recently, Zhang Bei's various businesses have been booming. The Duofu has sailed to Urg and the capital, and a Shanxi Guild Hall has been opened in the west city of the capital. What makes Tie Mo even more happy is that the first batch of flintlock guns have begun to be installed.
The new musket was loaded in the breech. After the gunner got acquainted with it, he fell in love with this new gun.
