Chapter 10 Chapter Ten: Waves in Pinghu Lake
Tang Yanyan's heart skipped a beat, she really wanted to let go of the branch to cover her eyes, but her hand was holding on to the branch nervously and motionless.She really wanted to move her eyes away, but those eyes were fixed on Yang Hao's naked body, and she couldn't help but glance down... After all, a girl also has a sense of mystery and curiosity about the body of the opposite sex.
Gou'er lay beside her, humbly asking her sister Yanyan for advice: "Sister Yan, why is Uncle Yang Hao's body different from mine?"
"Wh...what's the difference?" Tang Yanyan's face was on fire, and he asked eagerly.
The dog pointed at Yang Hao, and the poor lamp was hanging on the branch of a tree near Yang Hao's waist. The thing that he wanted to see but was afraid of seeing was so clear that Miss Tang couldn't pretend not to see it clearly.The dog asked curiously: "What is there with Uncle Yang Hao? It's so big. Why don't I have it?"
Tang Yanyan's hand seemed to be stung by a bee, and she quickly retracted it. Fortunately, the night was windy and the leaves were whirling. The sound of the branch in her hand bouncing was not loud, which never attracted Yang Hao's attention.Tang Yanyan turned around without saying a word and walked away. The dog was confused. She looked to the left at Yang Hao who was taking a leisurely bath, and to the right at Tang Yanyan who was running away in a hurry. She bit her finger and used her little head Gua studied it carefully, and finally chased Tang Yanyan down.
"Sister Yan, why are you running, the uncle won't find us."
Even though Yuexia couldn't see the change of skin color clearly, and there was an ignorant kid in front of her, Tang Yanyan still felt her face was as hot as a fire, and she squeaked, "It's getting late, we should go back Go to sleep."
The dog trotted after her buttocks, tilted his head to think about it, and still couldn't help tugging at her skirt. With his tireless studious spirit, he persistently asked: "Sister Yan, why did Uncle Yang Hao grow up with me?" It’s not the same, that big thing is so strange... Ouch!”
Tang Yanyan stopped and turned around, and the dog received a "fried chestnut" on the head. She covered her head in pain, and looked at Sister Yanyan in amazement. Tang Yanyan's pretty eyes widened, and she said angrily: "Because you are still young, do you understand? When you grow up, when you grow up...uh...when you grow up, you will be as big as him..."
The dog was very surprised, and lost his voice: "Really?"
"Nonsense, when you grow up, you will naturally have one as big as one... Oh, what am I talking about, you little brat, I'm so ashamed." Tang Yanyan stomped her feet, feeling irritable for a while: "Don't ask, just inquire about everything."
She turned around and took two steps, then turned her head and "threatened" and said: "No one can tell what happened tonight, do you hear that? Even your mother is not allowed to tell, or...or my sister will never like it again. You are dead, and I will never take you to ride a horse again."
The dog was taken aback. In this world, apart from mother, Uncle Yang Hao and Master and Grandpa, only this amiable Sister Yan treats her best.Mother-in-law doesn't talk much, master and grandpa like to sleep, and Uncle Yang Hao is too busy, only sister Yan is willing to play with her, the lonely dog since childhood is not willing to lose her, so he nodded in a hurry and promised: "Sister Yan, who am I to?" I won’t talk about it, I promise, if you don’t believe me… let’s pull Gougou.”
Tang Yanyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said in a low voice: "Okay, don't pull the hook, Sister Yan trusts you. Go, go, go back to sleep."
"Yes, yes, yes." The dog responded and fled in a hurry.After running a few steps, she raised her trousers and looked down curiously. She still couldn't figure out why she didn't have one now. She would only grow such a strange thing when she grew up. My mother is an adult, but why did she No?
Because of this strange disease, the dog has been isolated from his friends since he was a child. After his father passed away early, he just lived with his mother and lived day and night. He really had no chance to see the true face of his little brother, let alone the difference between men and women concept.Sister-in-law Ma is a village woman who spends her days working hard to earn a living and how to make the dog live longer. In addition, the dog is still young, so it is impossible to tell her about this.
This dog has always thought that it is only natural to grow up like himself and his mother. When he first saw that Yang Hao was "different", he was naturally surprised, so he ran to Tang Yanyan, but in the end he got such a puzzled answer. She was not allowed to ask anyone else.The poor dog ran back with a question mark on his forehead, lay on the lap of the sleeping master and grandpa, looked up at the sky full of stars, and felt that the world was so big and full of wonders.
Tang Yanyan returned to her car in a hurry, lay down on the couch, her whole body was limp on it, she pressed her chest, and there was still jumping fast inside.
"It's okay, it's a tit for tat, no one will know, no one will know..." Tang Yanyan comforted herself, and suddenly frowned in frustration: "But why do I feel that I'm losing money? Ma Yi, you bastard!"
Annoyed, Tang Yanyan pulled a thin quilt to cover her hot cheeks, and waved her fist resentfully under the quilt, but unfortunately she couldn't get rid of the scene that was deeply imprinted in her mind.And... the more you don't think about it, the more you will think: "Heaven, earth, this girl was killed by you brat..."
Miss Tang gritted her teeth and scolded, but she didn't know whether the brat she was talking about was Yang Hao or Ma Yi.
At dawn, the team continued westward. There is sufficient food along the way, and there is no disturbance from chasing soldiers. The scenery of the grassland is many times stronger than that of the harsh wasteland at the beginning. The spirits of the people gradually recovered. When I have time to chat with my parents, there are occasional singing voices of some people who are incomplete in tone during the procession. The singing voice is simple and joyful. Yang Hao and Li Yuchang rode side by side, chatting casually. Li Yuchang has been wandering around in Fuyaozi's car for the past two days. In his heart, Fuyaozi is like a living fairy. He gave advice one or two, and the Li family's career will definitely rise to the next level.Even if he is an ordinary person, this old immortal is too lazy to enlighten him, if he pleases him, getting a few pills from him that the old real person made by himself can strengthen his body and prolong his life, right? It's a pity that Fu Yaozi sleeps all day long, and his young disciple Ma Yi doesn't want to get close to him at all, so Li Yuchang pulls Yang Hao all day long to make friends.With his shrewd eyes of a businessman, it is natural to see that Fuyaozi's master and apprentice seem to have an unusual affection for Yang Hao, and making connections in a roundabout way is just his businessman's forte. Yang Hao walked slowly, and asked casually: "Aside from the salt business, isn't Mr. Li doing other business?" Li Yuchang said with a chuckle: "That's not necessarily the case. I don't sell salt sporadically, so I have to stop for a while. There are so many people in the family, so I can't do it, so what kind of business is it?" If I want to make money, I will do whatever, but it’s all short-term things, and the Li family’s business is mainly engaged in the business of salt.” Yang Hao nodded thoughtfully, tapped his palm lightly with a horsewhip, pondered for a moment and said, "So, I wonder if Mr. Li is in the business of building bridges, building houses and real estate?" Li Yuchang was stunned, and laughed and said, "Well, it is occasionally involved. The military camp expanded by Zhejia in Fuzhou was partly undertaken by my Li's firm, as well as the renovation of several pagodas and temples in Fuzhou city, but... …It’s been a few years. Most common people ask relatives, friends and neighbors to help build houses, so in addition to the construction of government offices and military camps, and the repair of mountain gates in temples and Taoist temples, generally speaking, they rely on selling wood, bricks, and contracting to build houses and courtyards. That won't make much money. Why, envoy Yang Qin intends to do some business?" Yang Hao shook his head and smiled, pointed forward and backward, and said: "Mr. Li, you see, there are more than ten thousand households of these people, and the northwest and southwest are wide enough to accommodate them, but once they get there, they always need someone A place to resettle? If you wait until they arrive, you will be in a hurry. I am afraid that the prefectural officials will not be able to take care of it for a while. If someone rushes to buy some wood, bricks and stones and build some village houses, then it will be a big deal to settle these victims. profitable." Yang Hao pointedly said: "First of all, these people moved from the Northern Han Dynasty to the Song Dynasty. As a show of generosity and benevolence, our Song Dynasty official family will definitely distribute the land and reward money for buying houses. This, before we set off, the official family has already done something. Said. If someone gave these built houses to the relocated people to live in, and used the resettlement fees of the court to pay for the consumption, then the merchants and the people will get what they need and benefit from each other, wouldn’t it be good..." Before Yang Hao finished speaking, Li Yuchang slapped his forehead and suddenly came to his senses.What Yang Hao said, in fact, there are a lot of things to be discussed. For example, the local government can use the money allocated by the imperial court to build houses by itself instead of going through any business name to accommodate these migrants.For another example, where the local government wants to resettle these people has not yet been determined. The resettlement place has not yet been determined. How to build houses nearby? But none of this was a problem for Li Yuchang. He was originally a big merchant attached to the Tang family, and the Tang family was a big chaebol attached to the Zhe family.It is very difficult for others to inquire about the resettlement of immigrants by the government and take over the matter of construction, but it is a matter of course and easy for him. Therefore, Yang Hao realized the business opportunities in the middle of the talk . After returning from Huihe this time, their salt business, which is the largest source of income for the Li family, has come to an end. The next time they will transport salt to various places will be at the end of autumn. The resettlement of tens of thousands of immigrants during this period is naturally a great opportunity to make money. Yuchang was overjoyed, and rubbed his hands again and again: "Oh, it's the imperial envoy who thought about the long-term, and awakened the person in my dream with a single word. In this way, I should rush back to Fuzhou as soon as possible and make preparations first." Yang Hao cupped his hands and said with a smile: "This is the best. If this matter is done well, Li Yuanwai will not only benefit from it, but also a good deed. At that time, everyone in the northwest and southwest will praise him. If you have a good reputation, the imperial court will definitely reward you with praise..." Li Yuchang laughed loudly, and couldn't wait to say: "In this way, the old man can't go slowly with the imperial envoy, I have to rush back immediately. The old man will go to say goodbye to General Luo and others, and immediately lead the people to rush to the mansion State." Li Yuchang hurriedly cupped his hands, shook the reins and galloped forward. After a while, Li Yuchang's men and horses began to gather. Luo Kedi rode a horse to meet Yang Hao, and when he got close, he reined in the reins and said with a smile: "I heard that the imperial envoy gave Li Yuanwai a way to make money?" Yang Hao said with a smile: "A businessman, he can't get up early without profit. He has to make money. Anyway, the court must allocate this money. This way, the common people can also suffer less torture. Once they arrive in the place, there will be more money." The residence is also easy to calm people's hearts. Besides, Li Yuanwai is a big businessman with status and status. If you can’t stand the wind and rain, aren’t the people the ones who suffer? This is everyone’s own benefit.” Luo Kedi nodded and said with a smile: "What I'm saying is that Mr. Yang has thought carefully. In the end, the general only thought about sending these people to the place safely, but he never thought about the aftermath. I'm really ashamed." While the two were talking, Li Yuchang hurried back again, bowed respectfully to the carriage where Fuyaozi was sleeping soundly, and said: "Immortal Chief, disciple Li Yuchang once asked Gaotu Wumeng to give advice, I escaped a catastrophe. The disciple always has a heart of admiration for Wumeng Daoist and the immortal head. Today, the disciple will rush back to Fuzhou first, and intends to invite the immortal head to accompany him, so that he can serve and take care of him nearby. The fairy head can reward you with a thin face." Yang Hao knew the true identity of this Fuyaozi, and he was somewhat curious and in awe of this legendary figure. Although he hadn't stopped so far, he hadn't seen this old guy do anything serious except sleep.But Luo Kedi didn't know Fuyaozi's identity at all, seeing how respectful Li Yuanwai was to a Taoist, he couldn't help being very curious. Fu Yaozi in the car was clearly asleep, but after Li Yuchang finished speaking, he yawned and sat up, glanced at Li Yuchang, stroked his beard and said with a light smile: "You can sleep with your head covered wherever you are. There is no difference between the rocky field and the brocade quilt mansion. It’s just that my little apprentice is too weak, so it’s not suitable for her to eat and sleep in the open. Pindao is looking for a place for her to recuperate, and then bring her She is going back to Mount Taihua. In this way, the poor Taoist will disturb Li benefactor." Li Yuchang was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "There are several elegant and quiet houses in my disciple's house, so please ask the immortal head to live with Ling Gaotu. The disciple must make proper arrangements, and then arrange a car to send the immortal head and Ling Gaotu back. Taihua Mountain."
Li Yuchang took his men and horses, and left Fuyaozi as his ancestor.Ma Yi and Mrs. Ma also set off with them.Gou'er was very reluctant to let go of Yang Hao, until Yang Hao repeatedly promised to go to Fuzhou to see him when the people were brought safely to the place, so Gou'er reluctantly left with Master and Grandpa. Surprisingly, Miss Tang Yanyan, who did not come out like a wild horse for the first time today, did not follow her uncle.She said that she was not feeling well these days, and she didn't want to travel in a hurry. The men and horses left first. In the evening, the migratory army camped on the grass again.From here, go forward for a day and a half, and you will arrive at Zhulangchuan.After crossing the big river, you will enter the sphere of influence of the Zhe clan, and the number of residents will gradually increase. All the soldiers and civilians are very happy, and the camp is full of joyful atmosphere. Only Young Master Ye looked at the lame eagle with one claw missing.He really wanted to catch another eagle back, but unfortunately his neck was sore all day long, and there was no sign of an eagle. Yang Hao settled down the people, and rode around on horseback as usual. When he rushed back to the front of the team, he bumped into Tang Yanyan who was walking towards him.Seeing him, Tang Yan immediately slapped his face with flames, turning red from face to neck, like a boiled shrimp. Yang Hao had already heard that she was not feeling well these days, so he didn't go with his uncle. He guessed it was just a problem common to all women, so he never asked her.At this moment, seeing her walking towards him, her face was as red as a cloud of fire, she couldn't help but feel very surprised, she got off the horse and said, "Miss Tang, is it very hot?" Tang Yanyan felt uncomfortable. Although Yang Hao in front of her was completely dressed, she couldn't help thinking about it when she saw him. She felt shy for a while, but it was too late to dodge, so she just dodged her eyes and said with a sneer: " Uh... yeah, man... it's really hot." Yang Hao raised his head to look at the powerless sun at this time, he was a little puzzled, he took off the water bag from his horse, and said with a smile: "The weather is not bad now, if the girl feels hot, wash her face, then It's much cooler." "Thank you very much." Tang Yanyan didn't dare to look at him directly, took the water bag, went to the side of the grass and washed his face with clean water, then took out a white silk handkerchief and wiped it gently With water on his face, he handed the water bag back to him, and said with a shy smile, "Thank you, Mr. Yang." "No thanks." Yang Hao smiled, took the water bag and looked at her curiously.He felt that something was wrong with the girl in front of him, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to his mind: By the way, shy!She is shy!Her expression now is shy, very shy. How is this possible, Miss Tang knows how to be shy?Miss Tang would be shy in front of men?Is there still Wang Fa! ! ! Yang Hao looked up subconsciously, ah!Sure enough, the sun was in the west. Tang Yanyan was uncomfortable with Yang Hao's eyes. She wiped her face with a handkerchief and dodged Yang Hao's eyes. She was finally annoyed by his guilty conscience. You are the one who sees people like that!" Yang Hao said with a smile: "That's right, just now I thought you were sick, girl. Now I feel relieved." Tang Yanyan was furious: "What do you mean, my girl has always had a bad temper?" Yang Hao quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, I didn't mean that, I mean..." Tang Yanyan's eyes flashed suddenly, and he shouted sharply: "Don't move!" As soon as Yang Hao was in a daze, he saw Tang Yanyan pull out the dagger from his waist with a "choke". Although Yang Hao knew that she had a hot temper, he didn't believe that she was going to stab him for no reason. He couldn't help laughing and said: "Miss Tang, Where did I provoke you? Even if you are not sick, you don't have to become so normal..." Tang Yanyan was so angry at his sarcastic remarks that her teeth were itchy, but at this moment she had no time to be idle with him. She gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, bent her waist, and shouted nervously: "Don't make noise, there are snakes, don't move, don't move!" do not move." Yang Hao was startled suddenly, he stood there stiffly and motionless, his eyes followed Tang Yanyan's eyes and slanted to the right, and he saw a big colorful snake with its ferocious head raised high, swaying slightly. Tongue letter. This snake was probably startled out of the nest by the people who suddenly appeared nearby and settled down. The hideous snake head can be more than half a meter high, and the snake neck is swinging back and forth anxiously. It is only one meter away from Yang Hao much distance. Yang Hao's face turned pale all of a sudden, half of his body was numb after being stared at by the snake.Yang Hao is afraid of snakes. He is really afraid of snakes. Among all the animals, he is most afraid of this soft creature, even a non-poisonous grass snake. This is an instinct and has nothing to do with its lethality.Man said that this snake is very poisonous at first glance, it is a non-venomous grass snake, if it has such a shape, he will feel the same chills when he looks at it. Yang Hao's teeth were chattering, and he said tremblingly, "I...what should I do now?" "Don't move, you must not move, so as not to disturb it, I will kill it with a sword..." Tang Yanyan raised the sword in his hand as he said, and threw it out with a flick of his wrist. "Whoosh!" The sword light flashed, and at the same time, the big snake jumped up, its fangs opened wide, and it bit Yang Hao's wrist with one bite. Yang Hao was dumbfounded, and Tang Yanyan was also dumbfounded. They saw the sword shot into the grass, and the tail of the sword was still in the air. Seeing the snake biting successfully, it immediately slipped into the bushes and slipped away, wagging its head and tail, Tang Yanyan jumped up suddenly, and shouted: "You are stupid, you won't move even if it bites you?" Yang Hao said with a pale face, "You told me not to move." Tang Yanyan said angrily, "I'll tell you to die, will you go or not?" Yang Hao said pitifully: "I thought your martial arts were very good..." Tang Yanyan said unreasonably: "My martial arts are very good, but its skills seem to be pretty good too." Yang Hao: "..." Tang Yanyan looked at him up and down, and suddenly said in surprise: "Hey, why is your face so dark?" "My day!" Yang Hao cried out in grief and indignation, and fell down like a piece of wood. Tang Yanyan stood blankly for a while, then jumped three feet suddenly, opened her throat and shouted, "Come here, help me, you're killing someone..."
"Old Xu, if you don't cooperate, this product will not be delivered to you..." "Brother Daliang, are you dead or alive, I...I often dream of you..." "Mom, I'll be back, Dong'er is with you, don't worry about me, my son has grown up..." "Dong'er, I promised to take care of you so that you will never be wronged or bullied for the rest of your life. Dong'er, I...I'm sorry..." Tang Yanyan sat beside Yang Hao, listening to his intermittent nonsense, until he fell asleep, and then carefully pulled his fingers out of his tightly clenched hands one by one. Yang Hao was lying in Tang Yanyan's big car, lying in the soft, lightly fragrant quilt, his complexion was no longer so ugly. Tang Yanyan sat leaning against the corner cabinet under the window, resting her chin with both hands, staring at him quietly, feeling a distressed feeling in her heart. When I first met him, it was in Puji Temple. He was a flustered disciple who had his whereabouts revealed.When I saw him again, it was at my uncle's house. He was a kind-hearted person who saved his cousin when he saw injustice.The third time I saw him was at the old matriarch's birthday banquet, he laughed and cursed angrily, and fainted that annoying Lu Mingshi.Seeing him again, he looks like a beggar in rags, but he is already an imperial envoy, an official of the imperial court... Gou'er said that when he pursued the Han army, he didn't allow the soldiers to bully his orphans and widows, and he left his salary.The people who migrated said that on the battlefield where tens of thousands of troops from the two countries were heavily fortified and swords and halberds were like mountains, he single-handedly charged into the battle with bare hands, just to save an unaccompanied child.His image is sometimes tall, sometimes humble, sometimes lazy, and sometimes chivalrous. Now from his babbling, Tang Yanyan vaguely understands some things that she doesn't know. She never imagined that he has suffered so much, endured so much pain, and loved someone so much. So unforgettable.The men she met were either bohemian or obsessed with fame, who would regard a woman as important as a mountain? "Yang Hao..." Tang Yanyan called softly, stretched out a finger, and gently traced his thick eyebrows, and then gently wiped the word "Sichuan" between his eyebrows, which was still slightly frowning in his sleep, on her face. On the bed, there is a rare tenderness that has never been revealed... That green finger gently traced the word Sichuan between Yang Hao's eyebrows, she paused for a moment, she withdrew her hand, her eyes rolled slightly, and a trace of suspicion floated into her eyes: He... that day in Puji Temple, really Never seen me take a bath? Didn't I see him yesterday, although I was deceived by that brat Ma Yi.But if he asks, although I am not ashamed, will I admit it?of course not.If... If it was true that he tracked down the thief in Puji Temple that day, but... But what if he saw me?Would he be stupid enough to admit it? "If...he actually saw my body..." Tang Yanyan's fine white teeth bit her thin red lips lightly, her face suddenly flushed, and her whole body was hot: "This enemy... Has he ever seen me? Has he?"
The more than 7,000 soldiers under the Khitan generals of Lingwen Dumin and Xiangwen Tang were blocked by the troops of Song Panmei, and they were in a desperate situation with a bleak future. When the Khitan's various divisions plundered the "Dacao Valley" in the border town of the Great Song Dynasty, Lingwen Dumin and Xiangwen Tang's divisions were the most vicious and the heaviest in killing.Because Yelusha and Yeludilie, the leaders of the Baigan Tribe, both died in battle by the Tongtian River, and the young patriarchs Yelu Frogge and Yelude were also buried in the Tongtian River, so they both took revenge on the people of the Song Dynasty with their hatred. body. The route they were assigned to plunder was the West Route. After they succeeded, they had to go around the mountain range in front of the Meridian Valley to return home. The Khitan Empress Xiao Chuo also took the West Route. These two generals also had the responsibility of defending the Queen. .The harder they fought on the west road and the more soldiers and horses they attracted from the Song Dynasty, the less pressure the queen was under.Originally, according to the agreement, once the queen reached the safe area, General Yeluxiu would release the condor to convey the order to make them retreat immediately. However, Ling Wendumin and Xiang Wentang, who were so red-eyed, never waited for Brother Yeluxiu's order, but waited for Pan Mei's army that fell from the sky, and Pan Meisheng cut off their retreat, allowing the army to pass through Several of the roads were killed by Pan Meka, and the dangerous and difficult paths were also blocked by the Song Army's soldiers at the dangerous places. They have become shackles. Lingwen Dumin and Xiangwentang led troops to attack several times, but the result was that they lost troops and lost generals.Behind is a strong city that is difficult for the Song people to conquer, and in front is the Song army who is working hard to narrow the encirclement step by step.It is midnight now, and the Song army has stopped attacking.But looking at the current situation, they no longer know whether they can watch the sun set again after it rises tomorrow. Why did Brother Yeluxiu's condor never send any news? Could it be... Could it be that the queen wanted them to die on purpose?Lingwen Dumin and Xiangwen Tang, who were sitting by the campfire like trapped animals, had this question in their minds. Xiao Siwen killed the former emperor and established Yeluxian as the emperor. The Baigan tribe has always been on the opposing side, and for this reason they almost fought with the Xiao tribe.It wasn't until the Song army sneaked into Khitan and attacked and wiped out several small tribes of the Baigan tribe that they agreed to put aside their disputes and unanimously send troops to defend the Northern Han Dynasty and expel the Song people.Could it be... the empress is borrowing a knife to kill someone? Otherwise, Master Yelusha and Master Yelv Dilie are brave and good at fighting, and they have always been brave. How could the people of Song Dynasty predict the enemy's opportunity first, deploy an ambush and Tong Tianhe in advance, and kill these two adults of the tribe in one fell swoop?Otherwise, why didn't the last elite soldiers of my tribe wait for the order to withdraw, but why did the army of the Song Dynasty appear behind him as if falling from the sky, cutting off all retreat routes? Once suspicion arises, it will be like a seed, taking root and sprouting in people's hearts. Lingwen Dumin and Xiangwen Tang, who have come to nothing, suspect that the reason for all failures is the deliberate actions of others. After repeated thinking, they have completely Believing in their own judgment, they gritted their teeth with hatred as they looked to the north. "Warriors! We were fooled. We were not defeated by the Song people, but our own people stabbed us in the back! Now, let's fight back! Abandon all the stolen property and go into battle lightly, at all sacrifices, as long as If one of the warriors of my Baigan tribe can escape, we will not die in vain! No matter who escapes, we must tell our grievances to our clansmen, tell all the tribes that are allied with our Baigan tribe, and ask the Xiao family for help. Return to justice!" Ling Wendumin held a torch in one hand and waved his fist in the other. With red eyes open, he roared at the Khitan warriors standing silently in front of him. All the Baiganbu warriors looked sad and indignant, suddenly feeling betrayed by their own people. It makes them feel that they are a doomed hero who will never lose their prestige, just like the overlord of Chu in the history books of the Han people. No one thinks about whether they burned, killed, and looted all the way into the Song territory too deeply. No one thinks that if they find out that the back road is cut off by the Song army, if they abandon all their belongings in time, they can attack outside before the Song army has encircled them. No rush out.They only knew that they were betrayed by their own people, so even if they lost, they would not lose their honor, and they did not lose face to the Baiganbu fighters. The seven thousand warriors of the Baigan tribe held torches, screaming and roaring, and rushed to the Song army camp that was waiting in full force without hesitation, like a group of moths flying towards the flame...
Knowing that the Condor is missing, Empress Xiao and Brother Yeluxiu are very worried. What they worry about is exactly what makes Wen Dumin and Xiang Wentang suspicious.Empress Xiao was worried that something went wrong in Shenying's transmission of news. If Wen Dumin and Xiangwen Tang would not know how to advance or retreat, and risked their lives to go deep, once they were trapped in the Central Plains, they would come back with lost troops, which would definitely intensify the conflict between the Xiao family and the Baigan tribe. .So when I heard that the eagle raised by Brother Yeluxiu had not returned for a long time, I immediately decided to ask Brother Yeluxiu to lead a team of fine cavalry to go south to meet it. Of course, even though Empress Xiao was worried that the elite troops of the Baigan tribe would suffer a serious setback, she was also worried that Brother Yeluxiu's troops would be implicated by it and fall into the Central Plains, so she strictly ordered him to go south to meet the Song Dynasty border area. The exact news of the two of them should not be in-depth. That night, it was getting late and it was too late, so Brother Yeluxiu led the team to stop and set up camp on the spot to rest.The place where he stopped was exactly where Yang Hao's team passed by yesterday.Experienced warriors will choose a suitable location for camping in the wild. First, it must be easy to defend, difficult to attack and not easy to be attacked, and second, it must adapt to the solar terms to protect against wind and rain.So after a quick inspection, Brother Yeluxiu chose the same place as Luo Kedi's. Three thousand elite soldiers got off their horses and set up camp, and immediately found that there were people here, and there were a lot of people.Brother Yeluxiu lit up a lantern and looked around in a hurry. Judging from the various traces left on the grassland, they had cars and horses, but not many, and most of them were on foot. The number of this team was extremely large, at least ten thousand above.He also found out that the men who had camped here hadn't left here for a long time. With his speed of 3,000 cavalry, he would set off early tomorrow morning and catch up with them at noon tomorrow. What kind of tribes on the grassland can have more than 10,000 people at a time?Brother Yeluxiu immediately thought of the Northern Han immigrant team that had fled into Meridian Valley.Judging from the direction, if they walked out of Meridian Valley, they were heading in this direction, did Duo La not complete the task at all? Brother Yeluxiu frowned and turned around on the grassland. This place is already in the Song Dynasty, although there are no people here, and there are no Song soldiers guarding it.He decided that tomorrow morning, he would send a small group of cavalry to continue marching south to inquire about news of Ling Wendumin and others, and he would lead his army to catch up with the 10,000-strong team that migrated to the grassland. If they moved out and went around the people who came here, then this trip was not in vain. Having made up his mind, Brother Yeluxiu immediately ordered the whole army to get ready. A small event or a small person is equally likely to play a decisive role in a major trend that affects the historical pattern.If the cook Sinugu in the Khitan Palace had not been ordered by Xiao Siwen to assassinate the emperor Yelu Shulu, then there would not be a queen Xiao Chuo now. When Young Master Ye was sleeping with his lame eagle that was thrown away and was reluctant to keep it for nothing, he would never have thought that because he hunted an eagle, he would plant a disaster for Khitan. The cause of decades of war. Of course, he didn't expect that hunting this eagle would bring a wonderful performance to his half-moon tour in the Western Regions.This very grand performance will be staged at noon tomorrow, with 3,500 Khitan warriors, more than 7,000 war horses, and more than 40,000 migrating soldiers and civilians from the Northern Han and Song Dynasties. They are: Brother Yeluxiu, the great Tiyin secretary of the Khitan, and Brother Yang Hao, the imperial envoy of the Great Song Dynasty.
At dawn, the team continued westward. There is sufficient food along the way, and there is no disturbance from chasing soldiers. The scenery of the grassland is many times stronger than that of the harsh wasteland at the beginning. The spirits of the people gradually recovered. When I have time to chat with my parents, there are occasional singing voices of some people who are incomplete in tone during the procession. The singing voice is simple and joyful. Yang Hao and Li Yuchang rode side by side, chatting casually. Li Yuchang has been wandering around in Fuyaozi's car for the past two days. In his heart, Fuyaozi is like a living fairy. He gave advice one or two, and the Li family's career will definitely rise to the next level.Even if he is an ordinary person, this old immortal is too lazy to enlighten him, if he pleases him, getting a few pills from him that the old real person made by himself can strengthen his body and prolong his life, right? It's a pity that Fu Yaozi sleeps all day long, and his young disciple Ma Yi doesn't want to get close to him at all, so Li Yuchang pulls Yang Hao all day long to make friends.With his shrewd eyes of a businessman, it is natural to see that Fuyaozi's master and apprentice seem to have an unusual affection for Yang Hao, and making connections in a roundabout way is just his businessman's forte. Yang Hao walked slowly, and asked casually: "Aside from the salt business, isn't Mr. Li doing other business?" Li Yuchang said with a chuckle: "That's not necessarily the case. I don't sell salt sporadically, so I have to stop for a while. There are so many people in the family, so I can't do it, so what kind of business is it?" If I want to make money, I will do whatever, but it’s all short-term things, and the Li family’s business is mainly engaged in the business of salt.” Yang Hao nodded thoughtfully, tapped his palm lightly with a horsewhip, pondered for a moment and said, "So, I wonder if Mr. Li is in the business of building bridges, building houses and real estate?" Li Yuchang was stunned, and laughed and said, "Well, it is occasionally involved. The military camp expanded by Zhejia in Fuzhou was partly undertaken by my Li's firm, as well as the renovation of several pagodas and temples in Fuzhou city, but... …It’s been a few years. Most common people ask relatives, friends and neighbors to help build houses, so in addition to the construction of government offices and military camps, and the repair of mountain gates in temples and Taoist temples, generally speaking, they rely on selling wood, bricks, and contracting to build houses and courtyards. That won't make much money. Why, envoy Yang Qin intends to do some business?" Yang Hao shook his head and smiled, pointed forward and backward, and said: "Mr. Li, you see, there are more than ten thousand households of these people, and the northwest and southwest are wide enough to accommodate them, but once they get there, they always need someone A place to resettle? If you wait until they arrive, you will be in a hurry. I am afraid that the prefectural officials will not be able to take care of it for a while. If someone rushes to buy some wood, bricks and stones and build some village houses, then it will be a big deal to settle these victims. profitable." Yang Hao pointedly said: "First of all, these people moved from the Northern Han Dynasty to the Song Dynasty. As a show of generosity and benevolence, our Song Dynasty official family will definitely distribute the land and reward money for buying houses. This, before we set off, the official family has already done something. Said. If someone gave these built houses to the relocated people to live in, and used the resettlement fees of the court to pay for the consumption, then the merchants and the people will get what they need and benefit from each other, wouldn’t it be good..." Before Yang Hao finished speaking, Li Yuchang slapped his forehead and suddenly came to his senses.What Yang Hao said, in fact, there are a lot of things to be discussed. For example, the local government can use the money allocated by the imperial court to build houses by itself instead of going through any business name to accommodate these migrants.For another example, where the local government wants to resettle these people has not yet been determined. The resettlement place has not yet been determined. How to build houses nearby? But none of this was a problem for Li Yuchang. He was originally a big merchant attached to the Tang family, and the Tang family was a big chaebol attached to the Zhe family.It is very difficult for others to inquire about the resettlement of immigrants by the government and take over the matter of construction, but it is a matter of course and easy for him. Therefore, Yang Hao realized the business opportunities in the middle of the talk . After returning from Huihe this time, their salt business, which is the largest source of income for the Li family, has come to an end. The next time they will transport salt to various places will be at the end of autumn. The resettlement of tens of thousands of immigrants during this period is naturally a great opportunity to make money. Yuchang was overjoyed, and rubbed his hands again and again: "Oh, it's the imperial envoy who thought about the long-term, and awakened the person in my dream with a single word. In this way, I should rush back to Fuzhou as soon as possible and make preparations first." Yang Hao cupped his hands and said with a smile: "This is the best. If this matter is done well, Li Yuanwai will not only benefit from it, but also a good deed. At that time, everyone in the northwest and southwest will praise him. If you have a good reputation, the imperial court will definitely reward you with praise..." Li Yuchang laughed loudly, and couldn't wait to say: "In this way, the old man can't go slowly with the imperial envoy, I have to rush back immediately. The old man will go to say goodbye to General Luo and others, and immediately lead the people to rush to the mansion State." Li Yuchang hurriedly cupped his hands, shook the reins and galloped forward. After a while, Li Yuchang's men and horses began to gather. Luo Kedi rode a horse to meet Yang Hao, and when he got close, he reined in the reins and said with a smile: "I heard that the imperial envoy gave Li Yuanwai a way to make money?" Yang Hao said with a smile: "A businessman, he can't get up early without profit. He has to make money. Anyway, the court must allocate this money. This way, the common people can also suffer less torture. Once they arrive in the place, there will be more money." The residence is also easy to calm people's hearts. Besides, Li Yuanwai is a big businessman with status and status. If you can’t stand the wind and rain, aren’t the people the ones who suffer? This is everyone’s own benefit.” Luo Kedi nodded and said with a smile: "What I'm saying is that Mr. Yang has thought carefully. In the end, the general only thought about sending these people to the place safely, but he never thought about the aftermath. I'm really ashamed." While the two were talking, Li Yuchang hurried back again, bowed respectfully to the carriage where Fuyaozi was sleeping soundly, and said: "Immortal Chief, disciple Li Yuchang once asked Gaotu Wumeng to give advice, I escaped a catastrophe. The disciple always has a heart of admiration for Wumeng Daoist and the immortal head. Today, the disciple will rush back to Fuzhou first, and intends to invite the immortal head to accompany him, so that he can serve and take care of him nearby. The fairy head can reward you with a thin face." Yang Hao knew the true identity of this Fuyaozi, and he was somewhat curious and in awe of this legendary figure. Although he hadn't stopped so far, he hadn't seen this old guy do anything serious except sleep.But Luo Kedi didn't know Fuyaozi's identity at all, seeing how respectful Li Yuanwai was to a Taoist, he couldn't help being very curious. Fu Yaozi in the car was clearly asleep, but after Li Yuchang finished speaking, he yawned and sat up, glanced at Li Yuchang, stroked his beard and said with a light smile: "You can sleep with your head covered wherever you are. There is no difference between the rocky field and the brocade quilt mansion. It’s just that my little apprentice is too weak, so it’s not suitable for her to eat and sleep in the open. Pindao is looking for a place for her to recuperate, and then bring her She is going back to Mount Taihua. In this way, the poor Taoist will disturb Li benefactor." Li Yuchang was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "There are several elegant and quiet houses in my disciple's house, so please ask the immortal head to live with Ling Gaotu. The disciple must make proper arrangements, and then arrange a car to send the immortal head and Ling Gaotu back. Taihua Mountain."
Li Yuchang took his men and horses, and left Fuyaozi as his ancestor.Ma Yi and Mrs. Ma also set off with them.Gou'er was very reluctant to let go of Yang Hao, until Yang Hao repeatedly promised to go to Fuzhou to see him when the people were brought safely to the place, so Gou'er reluctantly left with Master and Grandpa. Surprisingly, Miss Tang Yanyan, who did not come out like a wild horse for the first time today, did not follow her uncle.She said that she was not feeling well these days, and she didn't want to travel in a hurry. The men and horses left first. In the evening, the migratory army camped on the grass again.From here, go forward for a day and a half, and you will arrive at Zhulangchuan.After crossing the big river, you will enter the sphere of influence of the Zhe clan, and the number of residents will gradually increase. All the soldiers and civilians are very happy, and the camp is full of joyful atmosphere. Only Young Master Ye looked at the lame eagle with one claw missing.He really wanted to catch another eagle back, but unfortunately his neck was sore all day long, and there was no sign of an eagle. Yang Hao settled down the people, and rode around on horseback as usual. When he rushed back to the front of the team, he bumped into Tang Yanyan who was walking towards him.Seeing him, Tang Yan immediately slapped his face with flames, turning red from face to neck, like a boiled shrimp. Yang Hao had already heard that she was not feeling well these days, so he didn't go with his uncle. He guessed it was just a problem common to all women, so he never asked her.At this moment, seeing her walking towards him, her face was as red as a cloud of fire, she couldn't help but feel very surprised, she got off the horse and said, "Miss Tang, is it very hot?" Tang Yanyan felt uncomfortable. Although Yang Hao in front of her was completely dressed, she couldn't help thinking about it when she saw him. She felt shy for a while, but it was too late to dodge, so she just dodged her eyes and said with a sneer: " Uh... yeah, man... it's really hot." Yang Hao raised his head to look at the powerless sun at this time, he was a little puzzled, he took off the water bag from his horse, and said with a smile: "The weather is not bad now, if the girl feels hot, wash her face, then It's much cooler." "Thank you very much." Tang Yanyan didn't dare to look at him directly, took the water bag, went to the side of the grass and washed his face with clean water, then took out a white silk handkerchief and wiped it gently With water on his face, he handed the water bag back to him, and said with a shy smile, "Thank you, Mr. Yang." "No thanks." Yang Hao smiled, took the water bag and looked at her curiously.He felt that something was wrong with the girl in front of him, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to his mind: By the way, shy!She is shy!Her expression now is shy, very shy. How is this possible, Miss Tang knows how to be shy?Miss Tang would be shy in front of men?Is there still Wang Fa! ! ! Yang Hao looked up subconsciously, ah!Sure enough, the sun was in the west. Tang Yanyan was uncomfortable with Yang Hao's eyes. She wiped her face with a handkerchief and dodged Yang Hao's eyes. She was finally annoyed by his guilty conscience. You are the one who sees people like that!" Yang Hao said with a smile: "That's right, just now I thought you were sick, girl. Now I feel relieved." Tang Yanyan was furious: "What do you mean, my girl has always had a bad temper?" Yang Hao quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, I didn't mean that, I mean..." Tang Yanyan's eyes flashed suddenly, and he shouted sharply: "Don't move!" As soon as Yang Hao was in a daze, he saw Tang Yanyan pull out the dagger from his waist with a "choke". Although Yang Hao knew that she had a hot temper, he didn't believe that she was going to stab him for no reason. He couldn't help laughing and said: "Miss Tang, Where did I provoke you? Even if you are not sick, you don't have to become so normal..." Tang Yanyan was so angry at his sarcastic remarks that her teeth were itchy, but at this moment she had no time to be idle with him. She gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, bent her waist, and shouted nervously: "Don't make noise, there are snakes, don't move, don't move!" do not move." Yang Hao was startled suddenly, he stood there stiffly and motionless, his eyes followed Tang Yanyan's eyes and slanted to the right, and he saw a big colorful snake with its ferocious head raised high, swaying slightly. Tongue letter. This snake was probably startled out of the nest by the people who suddenly appeared nearby and settled down. The hideous snake head can be more than half a meter high, and the snake neck is swinging back and forth anxiously. It is only one meter away from Yang Hao much distance. Yang Hao's face turned pale all of a sudden, half of his body was numb after being stared at by the snake.Yang Hao is afraid of snakes. He is really afraid of snakes. Among all the animals, he is most afraid of this soft creature, even a non-poisonous grass snake. This is an instinct and has nothing to do with its lethality.Man said that this snake is very poisonous at first glance, it is a non-venomous grass snake, if it has such a shape, he will feel the same chills when he looks at it. Yang Hao's teeth were chattering, and he said tremblingly, "I...what should I do now?" "Don't move, you must not move, so as not to disturb it, I will kill it with a sword..." Tang Yanyan raised the sword in his hand as he said, and threw it out with a flick of his wrist. "Whoosh!" The sword light flashed, and at the same time, the big snake jumped up, its fangs opened wide, and it bit Yang Hao's wrist with one bite. Yang Hao was dumbfounded, and Tang Yanyan was also dumbfounded. They saw the sword shot into the grass, and the tail of the sword was still in the air. Seeing the snake biting successfully, it immediately slipped into the bushes and slipped away, wagging its head and tail, Tang Yanyan jumped up suddenly, and shouted: "You are stupid, you won't move even if it bites you?" Yang Hao said with a pale face, "You told me not to move." Tang Yanyan said angrily, "I'll tell you to die, will you go or not?" Yang Hao said pitifully: "I thought your martial arts were very good..." Tang Yanyan said unreasonably: "My martial arts are very good, but its skills seem to be pretty good too." Yang Hao: "..." Tang Yanyan looked at him up and down, and suddenly said in surprise: "Hey, why is your face so dark?" "My day!" Yang Hao cried out in grief and indignation, and fell down like a piece of wood. Tang Yanyan stood blankly for a while, then jumped three feet suddenly, opened her throat and shouted, "Come here, help me, you're killing someone..."
"Old Xu, if you don't cooperate, this product will not be delivered to you..." "Brother Daliang, are you dead or alive, I...I often dream of you..." "Mom, I'll be back, Dong'er is with you, don't worry about me, my son has grown up..." "Dong'er, I promised to take care of you so that you will never be wronged or bullied for the rest of your life. Dong'er, I...I'm sorry..." Tang Yanyan sat beside Yang Hao, listening to his intermittent nonsense, until he fell asleep, and then carefully pulled his fingers out of his tightly clenched hands one by one. Yang Hao was lying in Tang Yanyan's big car, lying in the soft, lightly fragrant quilt, his complexion was no longer so ugly. Tang Yanyan sat leaning against the corner cabinet under the window, resting her chin with both hands, staring at him quietly, feeling a distressed feeling in her heart. When I first met him, it was in Puji Temple. He was a flustered disciple who had his whereabouts revealed.When I saw him again, it was at my uncle's house. He was a kind-hearted person who saved his cousin when he saw injustice.The third time I saw him was at the old matriarch's birthday banquet, he laughed and cursed angrily, and fainted that annoying Lu Mingshi.Seeing him again, he looks like a beggar in rags, but he is already an imperial envoy, an official of the imperial court... Gou'er said that when he pursued the Han army, he didn't allow the soldiers to bully his orphans and widows, and he left his salary.The people who migrated said that on the battlefield where tens of thousands of troops from the two countries were heavily fortified and swords and halberds were like mountains, he single-handedly charged into the battle with bare hands, just to save an unaccompanied child.His image is sometimes tall, sometimes humble, sometimes lazy, and sometimes chivalrous. Now from his babbling, Tang Yanyan vaguely understands some things that she doesn't know. She never imagined that he has suffered so much, endured so much pain, and loved someone so much. So unforgettable.The men she met were either bohemian or obsessed with fame, who would regard a woman as important as a mountain? "Yang Hao..." Tang Yanyan called softly, stretched out a finger, and gently traced his thick eyebrows, and then gently wiped the word "Sichuan" between his eyebrows, which was still slightly frowning in his sleep, on her face. On the bed, there is a rare tenderness that has never been revealed... That green finger gently traced the word Sichuan between Yang Hao's eyebrows, she paused for a moment, she withdrew her hand, her eyes rolled slightly, and a trace of suspicion floated into her eyes: He... that day in Puji Temple, really Never seen me take a bath? Didn't I see him yesterday, although I was deceived by that brat Ma Yi.But if he asks, although I am not ashamed, will I admit it?of course not.If... If it was true that he tracked down the thief in Puji Temple that day, but... But what if he saw me?Would he be stupid enough to admit it? "If...he actually saw my body..." Tang Yanyan's fine white teeth bit her thin red lips lightly, her face suddenly flushed, and her whole body was hot: "This enemy... Has he ever seen me? Has he?"
The more than 7,000 soldiers under the Khitan generals of Lingwen Dumin and Xiangwen Tang were blocked by the troops of Song Panmei, and they were in a desperate situation with a bleak future. When the Khitan's various divisions plundered the "Dacao Valley" in the border town of the Great Song Dynasty, Lingwen Dumin and Xiangwen Tang's divisions were the most vicious and the heaviest in killing.Because Yelusha and Yeludilie, the leaders of the Baigan Tribe, both died in battle by the Tongtian River, and the young patriarchs Yelu Frogge and Yelude were also buried in the Tongtian River, so they both took revenge on the people of the Song Dynasty with their hatred. body. The route they were assigned to plunder was the West Route. After they succeeded, they had to go around the mountain range in front of the Meridian Valley to return home. The Khitan Empress Xiao Chuo also took the West Route. These two generals also had the responsibility of defending the Queen. .The harder they fought on the west road and the more soldiers and horses they attracted from the Song Dynasty, the less pressure the queen was under.Originally, according to the agreement, once the queen reached the safe area, General Yeluxiu would release the condor to convey the order to make them retreat immediately. However, Ling Wendumin and Xiang Wentang, who were so red-eyed, never waited for Brother Yeluxiu's order, but waited for Pan Mei's army that fell from the sky, and Pan Meisheng cut off their retreat, allowing the army to pass through Several of the roads were killed by Pan Meka, and the dangerous and difficult paths were also blocked by the Song Army's soldiers at the dangerous places. They have become shackles. Lingwen Dumin and Xiangwentang led troops to attack several times, but the result was that they lost troops and lost generals.Behind is a strong city that is difficult for the Song people to conquer, and in front is the Song army who is working hard to narrow the encirclement step by step.It is midnight now, and the Song army has stopped attacking.But looking at the current situation, they no longer know whether they can watch the sun set again after it rises tomorrow. Why did Brother Yeluxiu's condor never send any news? Could it be... Could it be that the queen wanted them to die on purpose?Lingwen Dumin and Xiangwen Tang, who were sitting by the campfire like trapped animals, had this question in their minds. Xiao Siwen killed the former emperor and established Yeluxian as the emperor. The Baigan tribe has always been on the opposing side, and for this reason they almost fought with the Xiao tribe.It wasn't until the Song army sneaked into Khitan and attacked and wiped out several small tribes of the Baigan tribe that they agreed to put aside their disputes and unanimously send troops to defend the Northern Han Dynasty and expel the Song people.Could it be... the empress is borrowing a knife to kill someone? Otherwise, Master Yelusha and Master Yelv Dilie are brave and good at fighting, and they have always been brave. How could the people of Song Dynasty predict the enemy's opportunity first, deploy an ambush and Tong Tianhe in advance, and kill these two adults of the tribe in one fell swoop?Otherwise, why didn't the last elite soldiers of my tribe wait for the order to withdraw, but why did the army of the Song Dynasty appear behind him as if falling from the sky, cutting off all retreat routes? Once suspicion arises, it will be like a seed, taking root and sprouting in people's hearts. Lingwen Dumin and Xiangwen Tang, who have come to nothing, suspect that the reason for all failures is the deliberate actions of others. After repeated thinking, they have completely Believing in their own judgment, they gritted their teeth with hatred as they looked to the north. "Warriors! We were fooled. We were not defeated by the Song people, but our own people stabbed us in the back! Now, let's fight back! Abandon all the stolen property and go into battle lightly, at all sacrifices, as long as If one of the warriors of my Baigan tribe can escape, we will not die in vain! No matter who escapes, we must tell our grievances to our clansmen, tell all the tribes that are allied with our Baigan tribe, and ask the Xiao family for help. Return to justice!" Ling Wendumin held a torch in one hand and waved his fist in the other. With red eyes open, he roared at the Khitan warriors standing silently in front of him. All the Baiganbu warriors looked sad and indignant, suddenly feeling betrayed by their own people. It makes them feel that they are a doomed hero who will never lose their prestige, just like the overlord of Chu in the history books of the Han people. No one thinks about whether they burned, killed, and looted all the way into the Song territory too deeply. No one thinks that if they find out that the back road is cut off by the Song army, if they abandon all their belongings in time, they can attack outside before the Song army has encircled them. No rush out.They only knew that they were betrayed by their own people, so even if they lost, they would not lose their honor, and they did not lose face to the Baiganbu fighters. The seven thousand warriors of the Baigan tribe held torches, screaming and roaring, and rushed to the Song army camp that was waiting in full force without hesitation, like a group of moths flying towards the flame...
Knowing that the Condor is missing, Empress Xiao and Brother Yeluxiu are very worried. What they worry about is exactly what makes Wen Dumin and Xiang Wentang suspicious.Empress Xiao was worried that something went wrong in Shenying's transmission of news. If Wen Dumin and Xiangwen Tang would not know how to advance or retreat, and risked their lives to go deep, once they were trapped in the Central Plains, they would come back with lost troops, which would definitely intensify the conflict between the Xiao family and the Baigan tribe. .So when I heard that the eagle raised by Brother Yeluxiu had not returned for a long time, I immediately decided to ask Brother Yeluxiu to lead a team of fine cavalry to go south to meet it. Of course, even though Empress Xiao was worried that the elite troops of the Baigan tribe would suffer a serious setback, she was also worried that Brother Yeluxiu's troops would be implicated by it and fall into the Central Plains, so she strictly ordered him to go south to meet the Song Dynasty border area. The exact news of the two of them should not be in-depth. That night, it was getting late and it was too late, so Brother Yeluxiu led the team to stop and set up camp on the spot to rest.The place where he stopped was exactly where Yang Hao's team passed by yesterday.Experienced warriors will choose a suitable location for camping in the wild. First, it must be easy to defend, difficult to attack and not easy to be attacked, and second, it must adapt to the solar terms to protect against wind and rain.So after a quick inspection, Brother Yeluxiu chose the same place as Luo Kedi's. Three thousand elite soldiers got off their horses and set up camp, and immediately found that there were people here, and there were a lot of people.Brother Yeluxiu lit up a lantern and looked around in a hurry. Judging from the various traces left on the grassland, they had cars and horses, but not many, and most of them were on foot. The number of this team was extremely large, at least ten thousand above.He also found out that the men who had camped here hadn't left here for a long time. With his speed of 3,000 cavalry, he would set off early tomorrow morning and catch up with them at noon tomorrow. What kind of tribes on the grassland can have more than 10,000 people at a time?Brother Yeluxiu immediately thought of the Northern Han immigrant team that had fled into Meridian Valley.Judging from the direction, if they walked out of Meridian Valley, they were heading in this direction, did Duo La not complete the task at all? Brother Yeluxiu frowned and turned around on the grassland. This place is already in the Song Dynasty, although there are no people here, and there are no Song soldiers guarding it.He decided that tomorrow morning, he would send a small group of cavalry to continue marching south to inquire about news of Ling Wendumin and others, and he would lead his army to catch up with the 10,000-strong team that migrated to the grassland. If they moved out and went around the people who came here, then this trip was not in vain. Having made up his mind, Brother Yeluxiu immediately ordered the whole army to get ready. A small event or a small person is equally likely to play a decisive role in a major trend that affects the historical pattern.If the cook Sinugu in the Khitan Palace had not been ordered by Xiao Siwen to assassinate the emperor Yelu Shulu, then there would not be a queen Xiao Chuo now. When Young Master Ye was sleeping with his lame eagle that was thrown away and was reluctant to keep it for nothing, he would never have thought that because he hunted an eagle, he would plant a disaster for Khitan. The cause of decades of war. Of course, he didn't expect that hunting this eagle would bring a wonderful performance to his half-moon tour in the Western Regions.This very grand performance will be staged at noon tomorrow, with 3,500 Khitan warriors, more than 7,000 war horses, and more than 40,000 migrating soldiers and civilians from the Northern Han and Song Dynasties. They are: Brother Yeluxiu, the great Tiyin secretary of the Khitan, and Brother Yang Hao, the imperial envoy of the Great Song Dynasty.
