"It's so cold today! I don't know how long we have to go."

The person who spoke was an accompanying clerk, with his neck curled up and his hands in each other's sleeves.

A person on the side said: "Be patient, if you didn't work hard, why would you give us fifty more big bucks?"

"Next time I won't come even if I'm beaten to death. It's not worth it to pay fifty big bucks." The guy grinned from the cold.

The man next to me advised: "Keep going, the sun is shining now, and the manager will definitely not let you rest."

"Ever since we arrived on the grassland, the steward has had a long face, as if someone owed him hundreds of coins." The waiter curled his lips.

The person on the side whispered: "Shh, keep your voice down. I heard that the convoys that came to the grassland a few times ago had accidents, and no one has come back yet. I'm afraid the manager is worried that something will happen to our convoy."

"No way!" The expression of the guy who spoke changed and he said, "Before we came here, our manager said that the Fanji Chamber of Commerce cooperated with the nobles on the grassland. The horse bandits on the grassland would not touch the Fanji Chamber of Commerce's fleet along the way.

We can reach Bansheng City smoothly."

The man standing by looked around and whispered: "I don't know if it's true, but I heard someone said that the people who hijacked the convoy were not horse bandits, but people with the Tiger Flag."

"Tiger-character flag? That Datong store with four-wheeled carts?" the clerk asked.

The man next to him nodded and said, "Yes, it's the Tiger-Character Flag. The master above had a fight with the Tiger-Character Flag. The Tiger-Character Flag sent a horse team and robbed several convoys of the Fanji Chamber of Commerce that were transporting goods."

"Who did you hear this from? Do you believe it?"

"There is no smoke without fire. Otherwise, why do you think you should give us an extra fifty bucks? The guys who usually come to the grassland will only be given an extra thirty bucks."

"What you said made me feel chills all over. We won't encounter the horse team with the Tiger Flag, right? In the end, we will all be captured and locked up."

"It's a good thing to catch us. At least we don't have to die. I'm afraid that if people don't catch us, they will just take away the car and the goods and leave us on the grassland. That's what we call a person who is ineffective and screaming every day."

"When you say that, I get goosebumps. I don't want to encounter any cavalry. I just hope to get to Bansheng City smoothly. I will never take on the work of the grassland again when I go back."

"Maybe we can't go back..."

Rumble...Rumble...

The sound of horse hooves echoed over the grassland like thunder on a sunny day.

"You've opened your mouth, the cavalry is really coming." The guy who spoke looked in the distance, dumbfounded.

A black line appeared on the horizon, like a ripple, pushing out in the direction of the convoy.

"Stop, stop, everyone holds their heads and squats down. No matter what the person does, no one is allowed to resist. Don't be stunned. Squat down quickly." The steward of the motorcade shouted loudly, asking everyone in the motorcade to squat down.

After saying that, he jumped out of the car and squatted beside the cart with the driver.

The sound of horse hooves in the distance became louder and louder, and the withered grass on the ground trembled slightly, as if the earth was shaking along with it.

A cavalry of more than a hundred people surrounded the convoy.

"Captain, these people are quite honest. We didn't need to say anything. They just squatted down with their heads in their hands, saving us a lot of trouble." A rider on the horse said with a smile.

Lao Wu did not show a relaxed expression on his face, but said: "Looking at the looks of these people, the people from the Fanji Chamber of Commerce already know that we robbed their fleet."

"It's only a matter of time before they know who robbed their fleet," the rider said. "We have robbed four of their fleets in total. I heard that they have run out of goods to sell in Bansheng City. Bansheng City will definitely send people there.

I went back to deliver the letter, and as soon as the two parties communicated, I naturally knew that something had happened to the convoy they sent to the grassland."

Lao Wu nodded and said: "The old rule is to send the goods to the warehouse in Qingcheng, including the person and the goods."

"clear."

The rider agreed, pulled the reins, and rode towards the convoy of Fanji Chamber of Commerce.

The other riders skillfully tied the hands of the guys in the team and used a cart to hold the end of the rope. Then the coachman stayed in the car to drive, and the rider with the tiger flag beside him followed on horseback.

"Captain, come and take a look. Most of the convoy is made of iron goods. In addition to pots and pans, there are also many arrow clusters and iron gun heads." A rider shouted in the direction of Lao Wu.

Lao Wu took the reins and rode over.

When he got close, he jumped off his horse, walked a few steps to a large cart, and raised his hand to lift the mat covering it. Sure enough, the cart was full of iron goods.

After looking at one cart, he looked at several other carts and found that nearly half of the carts in the convoy were filled with iron cargo.

"Bring the steward of this team here." Lao Wu said to a rider beside him.

Soon, a trembling middle-aged man was brought to Lao Wu.

"Let me ask you, why did you bring so much iron cargo to Bansheng City?" Lao Wu asked straight to the point.

"Yes, our master asked us to take him there." The middle-aged man stammered.

Lao Wu asked: "Didn't your master tell you why you brought so much iron goods?"

"Tell me, it's Dadaiji from Bansheng City who wants it, and the gentlemen from the Fanji Chamber of Commerce don't dare not give it to me," the middle-aged man said with a stammer.

After saying that, he quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at Lao Wu.

"What's wrong, captain?" asked a rider on the side.

Lao Wu said, "Such a large amount of iron cargo on the car will definitely slow down our speed. Take a few people and rush back to the warehouse first. Tell Captain Zhang and the others to send a convoy along the way to pick us up."

"yes."

The rider agreed, took a few riders with him, and galloped towards Qingcheng.

When the others walked away, Lao Wu shouted to the others: "Hurry up and get on the road."

The goods are all loaded on the cart, and there is no need to change carts. All the guys in the convoy can do is tie their hands with ropes and continue on their way.

Lao Wu rode on horseback and followed the convoy to Qingcheng.

Nearly half of the carts in the convoy were loaded with iron cargo and were heavy. The two wheels rolled over the dry grass, leaving two obvious grooves.

Two days passed before the convoy arrived fifty miles away from Dahei River and getting closer and closer to Qingcheng.

On the third day, a group of Mongolian armored cavalry appeared more than ten miles away from the convoy and were discovered by the sentinels sent out by Lao Wu.

"Be on guard, everyone mounts up and prepares to meet the enemy." Lao Wu ordered loudly,

Although he didn't know if this Mongolian armored cavalry team was coming towards them, he still had to take precautions. If he really waited for the attack, he wouldn't be unprepared with his armor and weapons.

One by one, the riders rode on horseback, took out their riding guns, and loaded them with gunpowder and marbles. Not only that, but the handguns on their bodies were also fully loaded.
