2997 Cut off the sky (twenty-six)
Under the gloomy sky, a long team slowly moved towards the west. Looking around, they were all suffering from chaos. Bai Wufeng stopped the horses by the road and took off the water bag to drink water. The situation was worse than what he thought. When he found that the direction was towards the wilderness to the west, Saoh Dong began to appear in the team.
"Why is it going west? Is it the territory of the Western Barbarian?" Someone noticed the abnormality and whispered.
"Isn't we going to sell us all to the Western Barbarians as slaves?" Some people also made terrifying speculations
"It's hard to say, otherwise why don't you let us go home?"
Various voices also made Bai Wufeng feel a headache. He used to kill people and establish his authority completely. Now he went westward. Looking at these miserable civilians and then using swords to these unarmed civilians, he always felt frustrated.
"How can you do this? How can you sell them all to the Western Continent?" "Who has no wife, children, old and young, who has no family cares about you, don't you feel ashamed? Where is the Western Barbarian? I'm afraid the situation is not as good as that of the grassland people." An old man even jumped out and pointed at Bai Wufeng's nose and cursed. Several Yanzhou cavalry rushed up with a fierce look and wanted to arrest the old man, but was called by Bai Wufeng.
"Is this old man?'Bai Wufeng immediately bowed slightly,
"I am the local supervisor Li Keyan!" The old man was very righteous and completely put his life and death aside.
"Supervisor? Li Keyan!'Bai Wufeng was stunned at first, holding the hilt of the knife tightly, but then letting go. He looked at the old man foolishly, and his whole body trembled with excitement. Li Keyan, as long as he was from the northwest, who would not know Li Keyan!
Yanzhou is also a part of the northwest. Rumors say that this old man is a little stupid. It seems that it is true. In this case, who dares to jump out? The person who was killed in front of him is rolling, and the blood on the blade has not been wiped off, so he dares to jump out and point at people and scold him. This old man is really not afraid of death! The loose scholar's robe is hard to support his character and can become a supervisor. They are all very famous experts in the region. Bai Wufeng didn't know that among these Chinese people, there was Li Keyan. This is a famous figure in the entire northwest, and it is also a figure that Bai Wufeng admires very much.
When Bai Wufeng had just entered Yanzhou, he wanted to win a quota for himself to become a disciple of Li Keyan through family relations. However, because Bai Wufeng was just an external branch at that time, such a precious quota was naturally left to the core children of the Zhang family, which always made Bai Wufeng feel regretful.
I didn't expect that when I saw Li Keyan himself under such circumstances, I wouldn't say that Bai Wufeng was stupid, even the people around him were a little stupid.
"It's all ordinary civilians, please don't make things difficult for them." Li Keyan looked at Bai Wufeng with a serious expression. The scene of this man slashing Huang Lin with a knife flashed in his mind. He clenched his fingers tightly and said sternly, "If the adults really lack money, sell me. My name is Li Keyan. I am from the Li family. As long as you write a letter to the Li family, they will definitely give you money."
"Sell Li Keyan!" Bai Wufeng couldn't help but feel slightly moved when he looked at the old man's thin and vigorous face. It was indeed a strong and strong man. It was no wonder that he was demoted from the imperial capital to the northwest at the age of 30. After thirty years of storms, I don't know how many students from the northwest have been sent away. They may not be visible in the military circle of the northwest, but in the literary circle of the northwest, it is a real Optimus Prime existence. Most of the scholars in the northwest regard themselves as disciples of Li Keyan.
"Sir, our number is too small. If there is a commotion, I'm afraid..."
A subordinate also leaned over and said, his eyes falling on Li Keyan, and there was a hint of fear. Offending Li Keyan would be equivalent to offending scholars in the entire northwest, and the Northwest students who had entered the imperial government system were not worth it.
Although he has lost his sense of identity with Zhongbyia, Li Keyan is also a great scholar who has to respect for himself. He has worked hard to send batches of Northwest civil servants to the Central Bian Empire. He is even more honest in terms of reputation. It is said that Li Keyan is a supervisor and a member of the Li family. The family is considered wealthy, but Li Keyan uses money and supplies to support poor students. As a result, his two sons, one in the famine year, had no food to eat, and he couldn't pull out the Guanyin soil after eating too much, and he was overwhelmed by his big belly. The other was secretly borrowing money from others to subsidize the family. The time was up and he couldn't pay back the money. As a result, Li Keyan broke one leg alive and claimed that he had cut off the father-son relationship with Li Keyan.
Moreover, Li Keyan is a member of the Li family. Now the person who presides over the wilderness intelligence is Li Yuehua, the little princess of the Li family. This background has to be considered. Bai Wufeng can kill Huang Lin with one knife, but he cannot raise a sword against a great scholar like Li Keyan.
Moreover, from the current situation, it is unrealistic to bring back more than 100,000 Zhongbiya people. Bai Wufeng's previous thoughts were too naive. He thought that if he rescued these Zhongbiya people from the grassland people, the other party would be grateful to him. In addition, most of his home was destroyed, so he naturally followed him wholeheartedly, but in fact it was not the case. More than 100,000 Zhongbiya people were saved, but the other party was not grateful to him at all. He only wanted to go home immediately. This is the nature of Zhongbiya people,
Most of those who leave secretly are family members. Even if they are forced to detain them, they are not here.
On the contrary, the rest did not run away, but the family was destroyed. The grassland people swept and robbed, burned and killed countless people, and destroyed countless people. The walls along the way were full of walls, and most of the houses were ruins. Even a village with better shelter from wind and rain could not be found. For these people, it was truly a place of land that had no foothold. Even if they went back, it would be a dead end. Only these people would truly follow Bai Wufeng. After understanding these, Bai Wufeng felt relieved and waved his hand and said, "Okay, send the order and leave it at will. If you are willing to follow us, you can leave. If you don't want to, don't chase you."
"Sir, wise" The subordinate nodded excitedly. They were all Central Asians. Looking at these miserable compatriots, they were always confused, so the cavalry below were also suffering one by one. Now that the superior ordered them to let them go, there was a burst of cheers.
"No matter you, stay or leave voluntarily"
Yanzhou cavalry began to disperse. Even if they saw someone running away, they would no longer chase after him. Once they lost their binding force, the large queue of more than 100,000 people scattered. The Yanzhou cavalry, with more than a thousand people, had no choice but to see that Yanzhou cavalry in iron armor had given up the outside line. At the beginning, there were only dozens of people who had escaped. At night, they camped in camp and ran away. The next morning, 30,000 to 40,000 people had already escaped. They went west and dispersed. For only a hundred miles, they actually walked for a day and a night. When they reached the border of the empire, they looked at the long queue that had been much looser. Bai Wufeng could only shake his head and smile bitterly. He walked too many times. He re-counted the number of people, and said that there were less than one-third left.
Why doesn’t Superintendent Li leave?
Bai Wufeng looked at Li Keyan riding on a thin horse and asked in a voice. Li Keyan was old after all, and could not walk last night. Bai Wufeng asked someone to give him an old horse. He thought Li Keyan would leave as soon as possible, but he didn't expect that when he left the camp, Li Keyan came out again, which really surprised Bai Wufeng.
"My wife died in war, and her son didn't recognize me. I had no place to go. I had heard that there was a falcon empire in the west. Anyway, it was a fair body and I couldn't live for a few days. Why not go and see it? It was also a pleasing look before dying." Li Keyan's old face, which was wrinkled, was full of calmness. He used a simple and excessively knotted wooden hairpin to hang his head full of white hair casually. His long clothes and wide robe appeared even more in the wind, and said with a sarcastic smile. He was not afraid of your jokes. When he was young, his biggest dream was to one day walk around the world with his sword, go to a distant place to see, see the world, and see if this sky has an end. Unfortunately, this wish has never been realized. Unexpectedly, he has such a crazy state when he is old!"
"Okay, since Superintendent Li has this idea, it is hard to say that there may be unexpected joy."
Bai Wufeng laughed, beat the horse and whipped it forward, which was the border of the empire. For someone like Li Keyan who was full of loyalty to the emperor, if he knew that there was Li Yuehua of the Li family and the most noble Princess Mingyue in the royal family, I was afraid he would not be able to say such a casual word.
Bai Wufeng led more than 60,000 Zhongbi's people to cross the border army and enter the scope of the empire. He didn't know that he had stabbed the hornet's nest, nor did he know that at this moment, the entire northwest grassland tribe had swept over like a storm.
Thousands of prairie rushing to the west like a large net. Soon, most of the scattered Central Asians were discovered by the scouts of the prairie people. In the morning light of dawn, the smoke and dust rolled up by the prairie harem actually felt like it was covering the sky and the sun.
Yelu Guda stood on a horse on a hill in a grassland. The wind blew his strong short hair, wearing a cross-shaped helmet on his head, and looked at the distance with solemnity and ruthlessness. He stopped the war horse. A subordinate rode a horse and ran from the front and jumped off the war horse ten meters away from Yelu Guda. His expression was so excited.
"Sir, catch it!"
"Oh, Yelu Guda's eyes swept over like a knife, and a trace of coldness flashed like a wolf discovering prey. The army had been moving west for a day and a night. The remaining troops of Baiji were guided by the three remaining troops. It should have been almost the same. He held the war horse with his feet and looked at the subordinate. Ningsheng asked, "Do you know whether the other party's identity is, how many troops are, where are you going?"
"The other party claims to be the Mingyue Yanzhou Army, with only more than a thousand people, and the Central Asians who are following him have 60,000 or 70,000." The subordinates reported with a solemn expression. After receiving the news that the prey had entered the empire's wilderness, Yelu Guda's face was silent for more than ten seconds, and his eyes were just staring at the mountains and gullies ahead, the empire! No wonder, what else can be except the empire that can defeat the three divisions of Baiji with a thousand cavalry! Although I don't know what the so-called Mingyue Yanzhou Army is, there is no doubt that the empire is behind this unit. Behind this army is the empire supporting it.
"What should I do if the young clan leader do?'The tribe leaders all looked at Yelu Guda. There was a breath of killing in the silent air. The hundred thousand troops had already arrived. Did they choose to stop just because the other party escaped into the empire? The second report on the Mingyue Yanzhou Army was sent ten minutes later. This was another intercepted Central Asian,
One of the obscure news made Yelu Guda's eyes narrow into a line
"What, you're not wrong? Mingyue means Princess Mingyue, and Yanzhou army is the remnant of Yanzhou back then! You sure that's what you mean!"
Yelu Guda showed a look of surprise on his face, and the other tribe leaders also had a look of disbelief. Didn’t Princess Mingyue in Zhongbiya claim to be dead? As for the Yanzhou army, there were some fish that missed the net when the army was trapped and killed. However, in this case, connecting the two information together was completely different. "It can be confirmed that the Zhongbiya people recognized one of them, who was a member of the Yanzhou army back then, and the two were fellow villagers, so what they heard from each other was this "the cavalry who sent the news said loudly.
"Young clan leader! Whether it is true or not, it must be strangled. The Zhongbiya people must not have any hope left." The clan leader of more than a dozen tribes said in unison at this moment. The life and death of the Zhongbiya emperor is unknown, and the royal family is even weak. No one dares to stand up. As long as time goes by, Zhongbiya will be the result of internal conflict and division. At that time, the Yelu family will be invincible when they go south. However, if Princess Mingyue is really alive, and also has a Zhongbiya army with Yanzhou army as the core. Once the news reaches the hinterland of Zhongbiya, the vibration and impact on the Zhongbiya people can be imagined.
"Okay, everyone move forward, even if they cross the border, they will find them!" Yelu Guda took a deep breath and raised the whip in his hand.
"Forward!" All the tribe leaders issued an order. The advancement of the 100,000 grassland cavalry was like a huge wave rolling, and the fog was still floating on the ground. The war horses rolled up white balls like vortexes. The wind and clouds met, and the cavalry was as violent as the storm, and the dense rumbling sounds resounded across the earth, following the cavalry as they sprinted,
The earth is like a chess, and the fast black lines of the grassland cavalry rushed towards the west with a fierce momentum. At this time, the sun had just revealed half of its face from the clouds. The shallow dark clouds were like a layer of veil, and the low morning mist had dispersed. In the hazy morning light, black lines emerged from the edge of the grass. A large area of dim and messy stretched out in infinite distances, and several huge queues were like an ocean of war horses. (To be continued.)
