"Panzhou? That's not..." Dai Yu looked at Shen Lie, "Master, in Mr. Ji's last letter, he said that he and Ah Li met in Shoushi. Is Ah Li still in Panzhou?"
"She won't stay in Panzhou for too long," Shen Lie said, giving him a stern look and her voice suddenly became lower, "It's been a long time since the last letter."
Just a rough calculation, he went to Juezhou and Cangjin, and was delayed for more than ten days. After returning, he sent letters. The journey was already long, so he added another ten days to it, so it was more than a month...
Moreover, the letter was not delivered directly to her, it had to be circulated.
The more Shen Lie thought about it, the more he felt...
His eyes unconsciously looked at Yu Ang's shoulders.
Dai Yu also looked.
Yu Ang blinked his eyes and looked at both sides of his shoulders, with cold sweat breaking out on his head: "...Young Master, you don't want me to turn into a birdman, right?"
The deep black eyes narrowed slightly, and when he came back to his senses, he still said in a calm tone: "We have to train a group of messenger birds."
"Then you have to create your own secret message," Dai Yu said, "birds can easily be shot down."
"The range of birds at high altitudes cannot be reached, but secret messages are also available. Wanrong, Xiqiang, and Xiyihang, these languages can be used as a reference." Shen Lie said.
"Reference, they?" Dai Yu felt like he was jumping around on a piece of letter paper.
The main reason is that today's two games were all jili gulu, gulu jili.
But if you think about it from another person's perspective, maybe the same is true for them in the other person's eyes.
"Master!" Zhai Jinsheng's voice suddenly came from outside, "Master!!"
His steps were fast, and before he could reach him, he shouted loudly: "Something's happened!"
Zhai Jinsheng rarely showed such panic. Dai Yu and Yu Ang suddenly felt their hearts tightening. Dai Yu said uneasily: "I don't know what happened."
Shen Lie stood as still as a mountain, silently watching Zhai Jinsheng running towards him.
"Master!" Zhai Jinsheng frowned and pointed to the mountains in the northwest. "A large group of horse thieves are coming from seven miles away. There are at least a thousand people! They have the same attire as the Xiyixiang people we killed an hour ago. They should be the main force, extremely powerful." Most likely he’s here to seek revenge!”
"If it's Qili, the horse will be here soon," Dai Yu looked at Shen Lie, "Master, I'll arrange the horse-fighting rifle immediately!"
"There's no rush," Shen Lie said in a calm voice, "Let the villagers take out all the bamboo baskets in the village first, and then arrange the anti-horse guns."
"What's the bamboo basket?"
"Put on the head."
Dai Yu and Yu Ang were initially flustered, but seeing Shen Lie's calm and silent expression, they suddenly felt at ease.
"Yes!" Dai Yu responded.
Shen Lie looked at Zhai Jinsheng again and said in a deep voice: "Later, evacuate the young and old in the village and go to Dongling. All the dissatisfied village men will gather in the Beici Temple. Dayan's army is divided into three groups. I need 500 infantry. The remaining two groups are divided into three groups. It was led by Le Wei and Chang Chengzhi. Le Wei took 300 troops to the south to outflank them, and all the remaining troops followed Chang Zhicheng along Huaping Road in Beixiang and cut off their tails."
"yes!"
Several doctors and soldiers who were taking care of the wounded came out after hearing the sound. Shen Lie turned around, and everyone looked at him with fear and uneasiness.
"Go and appease them," Shen Lie was not good at this, so he walked out and said to Yu Ang, "Just say it will be solved soon."
"……yes."
The body of Ye Hechen was temporarily guarded by five people and left at Xunfeng Slope in Guannei Gorge.
As soon as the main force of horse thieves arrived, Ye Heli immediately ordered thousands of horse thieves to lead the way.
There were more than three million soldiers and horse thieves, but only one person survived. As he got closer and closer to Bufu Township, Ye Heli gradually saw the mess all over the ground.
The corpses on the ground were obviously being cleaned up not long ago, and there were a large number of messy footprints on the snow that had not been covered up by the wind and snow.
The further you go, the more blood has solidified on the ground, either flowing in sheets or spurting and splashing. A large number of corpses were buried deep in the frost and snow, and some were dug up and discarded. Looking at the footprints, it seems that they heard they were coming and fled in a hurry.
go.
Ye He looked sharply at the row of cottages in the distance.
This land is deep and vast, with thousands of lights shining brightly, and frost and snow covering the eaves of the houses quietly and peacefully. No matter how big or small the houses are, they depend on each other and are lined up in rows.
"It doesn't look like he was robbed..." the subordinate next to Ye Heli whispered.
"Could it be the people in the village who killed him?" the men on the other side asked.
"A bunch of rustic country folk?"
"Who could have done that?"
"If you can kill so many people, there must be a lot of opponents."
…
People around him were talking in low voices, but Ye Heli remained silent. His eyes were sharp and cold, looking at the village at the end.
Suddenly, Ye He jerked the reins: "Let's go to the village and ask!"
Regardless of whether you can find out by asking or not, the village will be taken over without any hesitation.
They are horse bandits, and the village here is their fat sheep.
There were hundreds of corpses everywhere on the snow, all of them Wanrong people.
When the thief saw his leader, he screamed in surprise and stretched out his hand.
It was difficult for Ye Heli to communicate with him, but the clothes and appearance of the corpse showed that it was a leader-level figure.
The death was miserable, with several stab wounds to the body, but at least the body was intact.
Ye Heli withdrew his gaze and looked coldly at the thief who was still chattering with a sad look on his face.
Suddenly, Ye Heli pulled out his saber and stabbed him.
The thousands of thieves had no time to react, and their eyes widened in an instant, looking at him in horror.
Ye Heli pulled it out with force, fresh blood sprayed out, and the thieves fell off the horse.
"Defection of cowards!" Ye He said with disdain, "You should be killed!"
"To be killed!"
"kill!"
The horse thieves around shouted loudly.
Ye raised his sharp saber forward: "Everyone, follow me and charge!"
All the horse thieves drew their sabers one after another.
Ye He pulled the reins sharply, and just when his legs were about to clamp the horse's belly, he saw a figure in front of him stepping on the lights in the distance.
Ye Heli immediately shouted to stop the fierce horse in his crotch.
The sky was covered with clouds and chaos, and as it got closer to dusk, the gray became darker. The people coming were one person and one horse, wearing black clothes and brocade, holding a spear in their hand, and they were tall and graceful.
The speed of his mount is neither fast nor slow, the horse's hooves are light but steady on the ground, the hair is flying, the limbs are strong, and the body is magnificent. At first glance, he is a top-notch horse.
His posture on horseback is also neat and steady. Without the experience of hundreds of battles, he would never be so calm and relaxed.
Ye He furrowed his thick eyebrows tightly, clenched the saber in his hand, and suddenly felt a chill.
Either due to the depression caused by the corpses strewn all over the ground in the dim sky, or due to the other party's overly cold and steady temperament, accompanying him on horseback, the chill in Ye Heli's heart became increasingly intense.
However, he is rebellious, and the more uncomfortable it makes him, the more unhappy it makes him, so no one else can have an easy time either.
"Kill him!" Ye He waved his saber fiercely, "cut off his head!"
As soon as he finished speaking, one of his subordinates shouted: "Boss, look!"
Ye Heli followed what his subordinates were pointing and looked forward to the right.
A large number of soldiers came, wearing armor and holding long spears. They were not uniform, marching with loud steps on the ground, and even walked in a way that they did not recognize their relatives and were fierce and arrogant.
