Just like that, hundreds of fresh lives of the two teams disappeared.—

Their deaths were definitely lighter than a feather, because when Li Shushi returned to Pingcheng later, he didn't hear any news about these people at all. He didn't know whether someone had deliberately blocked it, or because there were too many similar things happening here.

many.

Because their deaths did not serve as a warning sign to remind others to pay attention, Li Shushi's "caravan" still encountered their "comrades", and there were more than one group, and they were not even of the same race.

Is this the "lucky e" racial talent, or is he born with a sarcastic face (fff group, how can it not have a sarcastic effect when coming out with a group of wings, burn, burn, burn, burn!!!), anyway, Li Shushi's business trip this time was completely complete

It can be called a disaster.

Well, whenever he thinks of this word, Li Shushi wonders if he is possessed by the soul of a monk from the Eastern Tang Dynasty.

Well, that's right. The reason why Li Shushi thinks this way is not only because of the many disasters, but also because he is surrounded by a group of all kinds of goblins along the way. Although there are not many that can be eaten, at least

On the surface, it still looks a bit like Elder Tang - it's a pity that the version he plays is the funny "Calling the Beast" version, not the suave Xu Shaohua version.

However, in addition to being often coveted, this trip was at least commercially successful. Not only did they sell the goods they carried with them to the grassland tribes, they also exchanged for many grassland products that were in high demand in the Central Plains.

, and even sold the pastures belonging to two small tribes to five other small tribes. They also sold a medium-sized tribe to their enemies.

The latter two transactions allowed Li Shushi to obtain even more generous profits, and also gave his team a good vent.

The victorious warrior rode back, holding the horse loaded with trophies in his left hand, and holding the horse tied to his beloved girl in his right hand.

Although it's not a poem, and Li Shushi couldn't write anything that moving, the description in this paragraph is at least accurate enough.

What? Why is your beloved girl tied to a war horse, you ask?

Oh, brother, you have to know that sometimes you like someone but they may not like you, but considering that this era and the environment on the grasslands of this era are so harsh, you can't let your beloved girl live on the grasslands.

Endure hardship. Maybe she can't understand your thoughts. But as long as you sincerely let her see more of your shining points, there will always be a day when she opens her heart to you.

As for the use of first getting on the bus and then paying for tickets or some "slight" violent methods during the conquest, considering that the purpose is good and the soldiers are kind-hearted, we will not go into details about these details.

.It will affect feelings, right?

Although it is a pity that Li Shushi does not know what kind of trade routes his caravan has established. He also does not know whether the flood will flood the Dragon King Temple this time, but considering that they adhere to the principle of "no one offends us, we must be civilized" this time.

The spirit of "teacher; if someone offends me, chase death and chase north", it should not be like in some novels where it becomes the final boss that the protagonist needs to challenge.

It is said that since changing jobs to become a magical profession like a time traveler, Li Shushi feels that his imagination has become bigger and broader.

By the way, if the common people's way to get rich can be the same as their own imagination, will the world be more peaceful?

Or maybe it will create more pink eye, so we should just destroy it together?

Forget it, don't think so much, more than a month has passed and it's time to go home.

"The situation in the north may be more chaotic than we expected, and it can even be said to be a bit intense."

On the way back to Pingcheng, Li Shushi seemed to be talking to himself, but at some point, two men with their faces covered, leaving only a pair of sharp and sinister eyes came behind him.

One on the left and one on the right, like a guard.

"Isn't this a good thing for us? Those 'mysterious people' massacred the grassland tribes like this, but it saved us a lot of effort."

"If we put it on a normal day, Xiaozhi's words are extremely reasonable, and the civil strife in the grassland can actually help us. If the study is correct, the enemy's purpose is not that simple this time, and because of this, Yuwen Tuo's

That’s why the behavior is so weird.”

"My lord, do you think the other party will respond to your kindness? Although Xu can't object, he still disagrees."

"Unless he is foolishly loyal to Qianman or the Tanshihuai family, just like Mika who always sticks to it, he should send us a friendly signal. He was one of the people who witnessed what happened back then, and what happened now

It is also becoming increasingly clear that although I have only met him briefly a few times before, I think he should make the right choice in the face of such an enemy."

The cold wind gradually started from the north and continued to invade the south. The meadows on the northern grasslands also changed from tender green to withered yellow. The war horses that had been raised for a year became fat and strong, and the warriors who had been resting for more than half a year, at this time

The grassland has the strongest power.

Although people on the grassland do not choose to go south at this time every year, especially in the past few years, they have gone around Bingzhou. It can even be said that the grassland does not have the ability to go south on a large scale - Youzhou has Gongsun Zan and Gongsun Du, and the former is

He was a ruthless military aristocrat, and the latter was an ambitious careerist who wanted to separate himself from one side. Bingshuo was Li Shushi's territory, and he had already made many people upset if he didn't send troops to the north in a large scale.

Burn incense on your head, let alone go south. In fact, Lishi is still a sad place for the Xianbei people, and Taiyuan is another place that they don’t want to recall. As for the Yongliang area, let alone Dong Zhuo’s time, even if Dong Zhuo

Even though they are dead, those barbarians in the north still only dare to claim lordship and hegemony in the border areas where Han people are almost invisible. As for continuing to develop inward? Those fierce generals in the Xiliang army can definitely teach them to be a new person.

After the short-lived glory of the Tanshihuai era, the Xianbei people seemed to have been pushed down from the clouds to the ground.

However, with the emergence of the "Mysterious Man" group, the grassland tribes that had become somewhat hesitant and contradictory began to get ready to take action again. The "Mysterious Man" group also needed to prove that their massacres were not intended to harm the interests and rules of the grassland.

But it is to better enable the grassland areas to develop southward, drink in the Central Plains, and occupy the colorful world.

Although it is not uncommon to massacre the opponent's tribe on the grassland, it is more because the two sides have reached the point of mortal enemies. Either you die or I die. In addition, only when the other party is unwilling to surrender at all

This method will be used to frighten the remaining enemies. In most other cases, annexation rather than massacre will be adopted.

If the population on the grassland is really so large that it needs to be massacred, those grassland tribes will not plunder a large number of people when they go south. Just plundering some women and craftsmen will be enough to meet the needs of the grassland people.

Precisely because he understood the habits on the grasslands, Li Shushi judged that the other party would definitely go south, just like they had done before.

Not only for profit, but also to show something to everyone. Of course, there is also an ulterior purpose.

Moreover, Li Shushi gave them a new reason - he was in Pingcheng - maybe ordinary caravans didn't know this matter, and ordinary local powerful people didn't know much about it, but Li Shushi never believed that the north regarded him as a

The enemy of life and death will not know. Then will they face him directly and rush towards him even though they know it may be a trap? Or will they take a detour?

Li Shu was really waiting for the other party's actions. He really wanted to see how crazy those "mysterious people" could be.

Then not long after they returned to Pingcheng, the business travelers heading to the north suddenly returned in large numbers. Some were very calm, some were in embarrassment, and some had already been killed in enemy territory. In less than half a month, it was already very lively.

Pingcheng became extremely crowded.

Even those grassland tribes who had good relations with the Han people drove their tribes and livestock into their Wubao near Pingcheng, and prepared to defend their wealth together with the mixed Han and foreign guards stationed there.

So much so that by this time, no one had been able to come back from the north, and everyone had basically acquiesced in their ending.

Because all the caravans who escaped brought back a common message, that is, the Xianbei people were on the move again!

Of course, it is said that this time it was just a few small tribes who joined forces, probably just a vanguard force, commanded by a general with a "mysterious man" background, who crossed the Great Wall to the north and entered Kou Bingzhou, and seemed to be followed by a larger force.

"Yuan Jian, are you nervous? But it doesn't matter. You are only on the front line. Behind you are Wen Qiao and Zi He's troops, and behind them are Feng Xian and Han Sheng, so you can go boldly.

Come on, let us see your growth over the years."

For Li Shushi's encouragement, this young man who looks a little younger than him is the county magistrate of Pingcheng. Although he is young, he is an old minister around Li Shushi. He was the one who joined the Yellow Turban Army back then.

At that time, he became a young general under Li Shushi's soldiers. He also served as the deputy of Guan Hai, the commander of the Yellow Turban Canal. Now he is practicing independently in this frontier place.

Yes, this is the original Liao Chun and Liao Yuanjian. Of course, the more familiar name is Liao Hua.

"I wonder if my lord, as a business traveler in Pingcheng County, is willing to obey Hua's command."

After various experiences over the years, although Liao Hua still looks young, his temperament has become calm and trustworthy. Perhaps his qualifications are not amazing, but he does not make mistakes easily at a glance.

, in this situation where the enemy's situation is unknown, having him on the front line is more reassuring. Even in terms of force, which was originally a weak point, it has become a relatively strong point with the "support" of Li Shushi.

.Probably because of this, he dared to joke with Li Shushi.

"I am just a merchant traveler, not a regular army, so Yuan Jian is afraid that I will be disappointed... Unless Yuan Jian, you can control the armed forces of all caravans like finger-arms. In that case, as a reward, I, the lord, will be at your disposal.

It’s not non-negotiable.”

"Forget it then. The most we can do is discuss it. The military situation is urgent and the battlefield is changing rapidly. It is better for the lord to make his own decision."

Li Shushi came here to cheer Liao Hua up without making too specific demands for him. Anyway, his role this time is as a bait. As long as he can lure the enemy here, the mission will be completed, so the only thing he is worried about now is not the enemy.

The arrival of the army is just a wave of them. The other main forces are heading to the Western Region or other places.

It is precisely because of this that even though Shuozhou is in front of him and Gao Shun has a powerful army, he can only stand still. Even Lu Bu and Huang Zhong, who are the second echelon, are actually ready at any time.

Prepare to rush to other areas.

Originally, this was Li Shushi's arrangement. After all, Lu Bu's ability was strong enough, and Huang Zhong had fought against those "mysterious people", but sometimes plans couldn't change as fast as they did. Li Shushi was also very helpless about such things...

…

"Why are you helpless? This is a group of powerful enemies. They are a group of fierce people who can beat up Zilong and that old man! Okay. Don't look at me like this, isn't there still Han Sheng here?

Huh? He is more trustworthy than me in the back. Don’t you still trust Han Sheng? And isn’t there a guy around Han Sheng who you admire very much and told me not to cause trouble for him?"

So Li Shushi felt that she was so naive to think that Xiaoqiang would just stay behind and wait for opportunities or something!

Well, Li Shushi should have known that a martial arts idiot like Yi Xiaoqiang would let him go when he knew he had a good opponent.

But compared to Li Shushi, who was making various preparations quite easily, the other caravan guards seemed much more nervous.

"Uncle, do we all have to go into battle? Can we follow the old rules this time?"

A young man who didn't look too old and had only a soft beard on his lips asked the strong man next to him.

"Don't call me uncle. I'm only twenty-four this year. I haven't even got a house for my wife. I'm worse than a bastard like you! However, if you ask me about the frontier affairs, you're right. Let me tell you, don't

You don’t have to believe it, but if the government posts a notice, just be at ease. These guys are here.

The reputation of the party has always been good. And this time the Xianbei people acted a little strangely. I heard that the new Governor Zhang suffered a small loss from the Xianbei people a while ago, and he would not use our hard-earned money to reward the beheadings.

.Hmph, as long as I can kill five Xianbei people this time, I can go back to my hometown and get married!"

After the strong man finished speaking, he skillfully tied the trouser legs with cloth strips. Even with stirrups, it can be guaranteed that even the wider trouser legs will not affect the control of the horse by the legs and the balance of the body, but this habit is still passed down.

Down, after all, the wide trouser legs are still a bit of a ride, which has a big impact whether you are escaping or chasing the enemy, especially in windy weather.
