Zheng Kang led his people on the road non-stop. Lijian Camp had experienced two long-distance pursuits, so it had quite a lot of experience.
Something went wrong. Zheng Kang has been following Yu Feng through various difficulties, so this little hardship is nothing.
Jiang Zheng was also extremely careful along the way. Although he was in a hurry, there were patrol horses all around him. Even though he arrived late, he had been rushing all day.
However, Zheng Kang still insisted on keeping watch and stayed on duty at night himself. This move made many dissatisfied men feel relieved.
He accepted Zheng Kang's arrangements honestly.
Although Jiang Zheng didn't understand why Zheng Kang was so careful, he still did his job well. Zheng Kang couldn't help but be careless.
Knowing the importance of this operation to Yu Feng, he naturally braced himself for fear that something might go wrong...
"Brother..." Zhou Dalang's voice came over before anyone arrived. Xu Jie's brows furrowed but soon relaxed.
Following a rush of footsteps, Zhou Dalang quickly appeared in front of Xu Jie.
Looking at Zhou Dalang who was sweating profusely, Xu Jie said, "Sit down and talk."
Then he handed him a cup of tea. Zhou Dalang took the tea handed over by Xu Jie and drank it in one gulp. Then he shouted: "Happy". Xu Jie just then
He opened his mouth and said, "What's the matter?"
When talking about business, Zhou Dalang also had a solemn expression and then said: "The person who went to report to Yu Feng is back."
When Xu Jie heard the news, he raised his eyebrows and said, "How is it? What did Yu Feng say?"
Zhou Dalang said: "Yufeng did not reply but brought a message."
Xu Jie asked: "What message?"
Zhou Dalang said: "These are the three people who are expected to support you." When he said this, Zhou Dalang obviously didn't understand and responded.
With a look of doubt.
Hearing Zhou Dalang's words, Xu Jie stood up directly. This shocked Zhou Dalang. Xu Jie opened his mouth and muttered to himself: "Alright?"
I underestimated your courage."
Zhou Dalang hurriedly asked: "Brother, what do you mean?"
Xu Jie shook his head and said, "You must send someone out now..."
The night was as quiet as water. After such a long day of driving, we are now very close to the northwest border of Daqin. Zheng Kang has been under the influence in the past two days.
He ordered to slow down the speed on the road, so now after dinner, these men have not yet gone to bed, so they are all gathered together in twos and threes.
Don't know what you are talking about.
If it had been a few days ago that these men would have hurriedly fallen asleep after dinner, they would still be in such a good mood. Zheng Kang still insisted on standing.
After the first post, we ate dinner in a hurry and stood guard on the high ground not far away.
Zheng Kang and his people never entered the town and slept in the open air every night. Zheng Kang did the same for so many days.
Lost a lot of weight.
At this time, there was a slight sound of footsteps coming from behind. Zheng Kang quickly pulled out the knife and asked: "Who is it?"
"It's me." Jiang Zheng's voice came over. Hearing Jiang Zheng's voice, Zheng Kang took back the unsheathed knife and continued to stare into the distance.
It was as if it had never moved.
Jiang Zheng came over and stood side by side with Zheng Kang. Jiang Zheng's face kept changing, but it was already dark, so Zheng Kang also looked at it.
not see.
It took a long time for Jiang Zheng to ask: "Why does the young master have anything to do with the grassland..."
Zheng Kang shook his head and then interrupted Jiang Zheng's words: "You have to understand who you are loyal to? Who gave you everything you have today?"
After he finished speaking, Zheng Kang stopped talking and continued to stare into the distance. After hearing Zheng Kang's words, Jiang Zheng kept saying to himself: "I will follow my example."
Who am I loyal to? Who gave me everything I have today..."
The meaning of Zheng Kang's words was already very clear. It was Yufeng who gave Jiang Zheng everything he had today. If not for Yufeng, Jiang Zheng would have already
He died under the sword of the Mongol people. So as long as you know who you are loyal to, it is enough. What's the point of asking others.
Jiang Zheng kept talking to himself. Finally, Jiang Zheng stopped and his face became calm again. When Jiang Zheng was still talking to him, he suddenly
The intensive sound of horse hooves "dong dong dong" came from the distance.
Hearing the sound of horse hooves, Zheng Kang reacted quickly. He ran down quickly and shouted: "The enemy is attacking the enemy."
Attack."
Jiang Zheng was only one step slower than Zheng Kang. When Zheng Kang took the first step, Jiang Zheng also took a step and shouted
Said: "The enemy is attacking."
In this situation, no matter who comes, it is the best choice to assemble the troops first instead of stupidly waiting to confirm the front.
Take action after people arrive.
After hearing Zheng Kang and Jiang Zheng's shouts, the soldiers of Lijian Camp stopped talking and stood up quickly to get ready. Zheng Kang ran
When they came down, someone was already leading the horse. Zheng Kang took the reins and jumped up.
Lijian Camp is indeed a strong force and has been assembled in a short time. The soldiers of Lijian Camp are waiting silently for Zheng Kangfa.
The moment the charge order was given, their hands were not holding the handles of knives but short spears. As long as Zheng Kang gave the order to charge, they would be on the march.
The short spear in his hand was thrown at the enemy, and then he used his saber to kill the enemy.
Zheng Kang took the fifty personal guards assigned to him by Yu Feng and stood silently at the front of the team. It was very noisy just now, but now it has stopped.
It was very quiet. You could only hear the crackling sound of branches burning in the fire. The war horse under his crotch was not snoring. The war horse may have been feeling the pain.
The atmosphere before the war was already beating the ground with excitement.
The sound of horse hooves could be heard from far away, and now it could be heard that not many people were coming. Therefore, the soldiers of Lijian Camp breathed a sigh of relief.
He wasn't as nervous as before, but he didn't let go of his grip on the spear.
Only Zheng Kang and the fifty riders behind him did not change at all. Even though they heard that there were very few people coming, they were still in no mood.
Ups and downs. Because they believe that even when a lion fights a rabbit, one must use all his strength. This is the law of survival on the battlefield.
Getting closer, getting closer, and finally Zheng Kang finally saw clearly the face of the leader of the incoming people. Zheng Kang saw that familiar face.
The order was given: "Retract the troops and disperse."
The four short men had already told the men behind them that the people coming were friends, not enemies. After hearing Zheng Kang's order, the soldiers from the Lijian Camp behind them
They all dismounted, but the guy didn't put it down and just stared in the direction of the person, intentionally or unintentionally.
The men in the Sharp Sword Camp all crawled out from among the dead. What they believed in most was the knife in their hands. So even though Zheng Kang had just been released from the ring,
He was prepared but could not touch the alertness in the hearts of these men at all.
Zhou Dalang was also frightened when he left just now. The murderous aura coming from the front was too strong. However, the man who had been hanging out on the grassland for a long time was not willing to show his timidity, so he rode over so carelessly without making a sound.
Since receiving Xu Jie's order the night before yesterday, Zhou Dalang personally led people to wait outside. His men who were wandering in the wild said they had discovered
Zhou Dalang, a team of unknown origins, hurried over with his people.
Zhou Dalang and his men rode up to Zheng Kang, then dismounted and walked forward. The people behind him also dismounted but stopped.
On the same spot, Zheng Kang also dismounted and walked towards Zhou Dalang. However, the fifty riders behind him showed no intention of dismounting, and Zheng Kang didn't care either.
Instead, he said politely: "Brother Zhou."
Zhou Dalang looked at the young man in front of him carefully. Compared with the times before, he felt that the young man in front of him had more of a golden spirit. Listening to this,
When Zheng Kang opened his mouth, Zhou Dalang also smiled and said: "You're welcome."
Zhou Dalang asked: "Where is your young master?"
Zheng Kang smiled and said, "Young master, just call me over wherever you can go."
Hearing Zheng Kang's words, Zhou Dalang didn't pay much attention. Zheng Kang asked: "What's going on? Master Xu didn't believe it either.
say clearly."
Hearing Zheng Kang's question, Zhou Dalang shook his head and said, "I don't know what's going on. I will only know it when I meet my eldest brother."
Zhou Dalang looked at the man behind Zheng Kang and said, "But eldest brother has already arranged that I will take you into the city tomorrow and then
The big brother who is leaving the city is already waiting for us outside the customs."
Zheng Kang also knew that it was useless to be impatient now. Although he wanted to know what happened, he nodded after hearing Zhou Dalang's arrangement.
Then he said: "Thank you, Brother Zhou."
Zhou Dalang waved his hand indifferently to show that you are not welcome. Zhou Dalang then said: "You also know that there are so many of you and you still bring
The guys can only go in in batches tomorrow."
Zheng Kang nodded to express his understanding. Seeing Zheng Kang nod, Zhou Dalang also breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid of causing any misunderstanding. He finished talking about the urgent matter.
Zhou Dalang came over and put his arm on Zheng Kang's shoulder and said, "I heard that you fought against the Mongol people there a lot.
Brother, please say yes."
Zheng Kang also smiled and said: "Of course."
Zheng Kang then led Zhou Dalang and his entourage to sit down. Zheng Kang said, "I'll explain a few words to avoid any misunderstanding."
Come back later and have a good talk with your brother."
Zhou Dalang nodded and said, "Go and do your business first."
Zheng Kang left with an apologetic smile, leaving only Zhou Dalang behind. Only after Zheng Kang left did someone ask: "
The second master, Master Jiayu, is really that powerful. How many times has he defeated the Mongols?"
Most of the people who came with Zhou Dalang were old people who had met Yu Feng and hung out with Yu Feng's men. Zhou Dalang heard that
After questioning, he asked: "I think he should be the real Master Yu's subordinate. You have also seen him. If he is made a general,
Personally train the soldiers, do you think the bunch of trash in the frontier army can compare with them?"
After hearing Zhou Dalang's words, everyone nodded thoughtfully. The fifty hungry wolf army under the command of Yufeng on the grassland back then was
He was so good at fighting that they still have fresh memories of him to this day.
Although they were horse thieves, they were still Qin people after all. After hearing this news, I felt a little happy from the bottom of my heart.
After Zheng Kang left, Jiang Zheng and two veterans surrounded him. Zheng Kang said: "After hearing this, we arranged for us to enter the city in batches and then
When it’s time to exit the customs, meet again outside the customs.”
The two veterans nodded, and Jiang Zheng also nodded. Zheng Kang said, "Be careful not to make anything happen at this juncture."
What a mess."
After hearing Zheng Kang's words, the three of them nodded again to express their understanding. Zheng Kang continued to speak: "Then I'll leave it to you."
After saying that, he hurried back to Zhou Dalang. After Zheng Kang left, Jiang Zheng discussed with the two veterans and quickly
Go down and pass on this information so that the people below don't cause any trouble.
The most uneasy thing among these people is that Jiang Zheng is the only one in this team who has never been to the grassland. People are worried about the future.
We are full of curiosity about everything, but it is inevitable to have some fear...
Seeing Zheng Kang come back, Zhou Dalang generously handed the wine bag to Zheng Kang. Zheng Kang seemed to have remembered something and shook his head like a rattle.
When Zhou Dalang saw this, he burst out laughing and said, "It's not about burning knives."
Hearing Zhou Dalang's words, Zheng Kang took the wine bag with hesitation, opened it and smelled it, and found that it didn't smell like burning knives before drinking.
He took a small sip and then handed it to Zhou Dalang.
Zhou Dalang took the wine bag and said, "I'm right, it's not about burning knives."
Hearing this, Zheng Kang also nodded angrily. After Zhou Dalang finished speaking, he opened the wine bag and took a big sip before revealing his face.
I couldn't bear it, but finally handed the wine bag over and said viciously: "Just one sip per person. Don't drink too much. We have to do it tomorrow."
thing."
Hearing Zhou Dalang's vicious words, the people below didn't feel any strange, and they just had expressions of gloating on their faces. Zhou Dalang
Lang explained to Zheng Kang: "Big brother doesn't let me drink more before going to work. If I drink too much when I go back, I will get slapped with a stick."
Speaking of this, Zhou Dalang also showed an embarrassed look on his face. Zheng Kang didn't care and just smiled. Zhou Dalang suddenly took the photo
He patted his head and said, "Why did I forget this? Tell me about the war between you and the Mongol people?"
After hearing Zhou Dalang's words, the people below also pricked up their ears and were ready to listen carefully to Zheng Kang's next words.
Zheng Kang thought for a while and spoke slowly: "I'd better follow the young master..."
From the time he joined the first reinforcements of the North, Zheng Kang's speech was not fast, and he did not add anything during the narration, but it was dull.
Tell me what you went through at the beginning.
As he spoke, Zheng Kang seemed to have returned to the original battlefield. He was happy because his team had grown, because he had grabbed weapons and was able to survive the winter.
Excited by the materials; of course, there is also the fear of meeting the Mongol cavalry and the sadness of the death of comrades...
It took a long time for Zheng Kang to finish speaking, but the corners of his eyes had become wet for some time. Zhou Dalang and the people below also listened silently.
They didn't dare to speak rashly. Following Zheng Kang's words, they seemed to have arrived at the battlefield.
It took a long time after Zheng Kang finished speaking for Zhou Dalang and the people below to react. Zhou Dalang said: "Master Yu is the real
hero."
A seed of seeking refuge with Yufeng has quietly sprouted in the heart of Zhou Dalang, a simple-minded man with strong limbs. He doesn't know why.
In time, this seed will grow into a towering tree.
Everyone was speechless, Zhou Dalang laughed aloud and then said: "You have to go to bed and get up early tomorrow."
After hearing Zhou Dalang's words, the people below dispersed, but the restless heart could not calm down...
Zheng Kang left with Zhou Dalang early the next morning. Jiang Zheng took the soldiers of Lijian Camp and waited for the rescuers. In Zhou Dynasty,
Soon after Dalang and others left, someone came over.
A total of three groups of people came. Jiang Zheng and two veterans each led a team. Xu Jie had already made detailed arrangements. The three pairs of people mixed in with the three different groups.
Same caravan.
The one led by Jiang Zheng transformed into a caravan guard. As for the cotton armor, short spears and other items, they were put away. The two veterans led
The team's luck was not so good and they became the coolies of two caravans responsible for escorting the goods.
There are so many caravans coming and going on the northwest border of Da Qin, so they are like small water droplets thrown into the sea without splashing anything.
ripple.
The caravans coming and going naturally know that the grassland is not peaceful, so the caravan guards are also in large numbers. Among them, Jiang
These generous businessmen have bribed officials and customs guards to avoid trouble.
Zheng Kang followed Zhou Dalang to the outside of the city. Then Zhou Dalang took Zheng Kang directly into a caravan that was about to enter the city. The leader of the caravan should
Knowing Zhou Dalang, Zheng Kangze thought because when he first entered the caravan, Zhou Dalang and the leader of the caravan exchanged glances.
Zhou Dalang took Zheng Kang into an inconspicuous carriage. His men and the fifty riders brought by Zheng Kang changed their clothes and transformed into a carriage.
He became the escort of this caravan.
After entering the carriage, Zhou Dalang began to close his eyes and meditate. Zheng Kang kept looking outside. Zhou Dalang seemed to have discovered Zheng Kang's but he didn't say anything.
But Zheng Kang couldn't hold himself back and asked: "Brother Zhou, is this going to be better?"
Zhou Dalang nodded and Zheng Kang continued to ask doubtfully: "In this way, you can easily enter the city and then leave the customs?"
Zhou Dalang looked at Zheng Kang as if he were an idiot and said, "Of course."
Zheng Kang asked in disbelief: "How is it possible? Is it that simple?"
Zhou Dalang opened his mouth and explained: "You also know that there has been no war in the northwest for many years, and Qiongzhou and Guzhou have been fighting fiercely every year. Naturally, these merchants can only go here. Don't underestimate the strength of these merchants and the people behind them.
The forces behind them. Under the pressure of the forces behind them and a lot of gold coins, this place has long been undefended against these merchants. As long as you can get anything, you can sell it to the grassland through here."
Zheng Kang was stunned when he heard Zhou Dalang's explanation.dd
