Faced with the begging, Dai Yu remained unmoved and walked away.
After walking for another two hours, when they arrived at the Ningshui River, Shen Lie finally gave the order to stop.
The whole army wailed, and I didn't know who was taking the lead. They all said "Thank you to the general".
The great river Ningshui is roaring with the wind and the waves are rushing, and the voices of "Thank you, general" are heard one after another in a majestic chorus.
Shen Lie did not get off the carriage. Dai Yu spoke softly beside the carriage, nodded, and rode back.
"Listen to me!" Dai Yu motioned for everyone to be quiet.
Several baggage soldiers who were collecting water and unloading supplies next to the water tanker also stopped.
"Master said, everyone's voices are quite strong! We can still go for another hour!!"
Everyone was shocked, many people fell to the ground, and some people yelled.
Dai Yu laughed "hahaha": "It's fake, that's what I said! The young master said, set up camp on the spot!"
"Hahaha!"
"yeah!"
"Long live the general!"
Many people burst into cheers.
Another group of people rushed forward and covered their mouths with their hands.
"No more quarreling!" Dai Yu shouted, "Our general Xi Jing, whoever quarrels again will continue to leave!"
"No quarrel, no quarrel, we won't quarrel!"
"Don't dare to argue!"
Everyone was busy.
After setting up camp, feeding the horses and cooking, Zhai Jinsheng took the food to the leader's carriage.
The curtain door of the carriage was held by a golden hook, and Shen Lie drew on the map with charcoal. Next to him were Liang Jun and Cheng Jieshi, who were discussing changes to the military system and formulating military regulations.
"Master, it's time to eat," Zhai Jinsheng said.
"I'll come," Cheng Jieshi reached out to pick it up, "let's put this down first."
Zhai Jinsheng watched the hot dishes being put aside, while Cheng Jieshi sat back and continued discussing with Liang Jun. Zhai Jinsheng felt depressed and looked at Shen Lie.
The heavy charcoal pen fell on a mountain range. The handsome man was deep in thought. Not only did he not notice the smell of rice, he probably didn't notice him coming.
Zhai Jinsheng couldn't help interrupting his thoughts, so he left quietly.
Ningshui River is one of the birthplaces of Cangjiang River. Although it is currently a wilderness, on the map, it can also be called the foot of Baigu Mountain.
The wind was very strong at night, and in winter, the temperature dropped sharply, and every gust of wind on the face was like a knife.
When Zhai Jinsheng returned from his work, he found that the food was still nearby. Although smokeless charcoal was burning in the carriage, it could not be kept warm and the food was completely cold.
Zhai Jinsheng quietly took the food away, intending to heat it up, but when he turned around, he saw a cluster of stars lighting up in the distance.
It was an extremely distant horizon that could not be captured by his naked eyes with just a torch.
A thought quickly flashed through Zhai Jinsheng's mind, the village was on fire!
"Master!" Zhai Jinsheng turned around and shouted.
Not only did he see it, but the nearby secret guards and some soldiers further away who had not entered the camp also saw it.
The fire grew stronger and stronger, and a long line spread across the horizon, very thin, but clearly dividing the sky and the earth.
The sound of galloping horse hooves came from the front, it was two secret guards sent out.
Shen Lie got off the carriage, and Liang Jun and Cheng Jieshi also got off.
"Master!" The secret guard quickly got off his horse, "The three villages in front were all looted by horse thieves. There are about five hundred horse thieves. They are tall and strong, and their hair is braided!"
"Braids?" Liang Jun asked hurriedly, "What kind of braids? Is there a bun?"
"There is a thin braid behind the left and right ears, and the hair crown is a wolf head or a tiger head!"
Liang Jun nodded and looked at Shen Lie: "General, he should be a Xiqiang horse thief."
"I've heard," Cheng Jieshi said, "Western Qiang horse thieves specially break into the northwest to rob in winter, but this is Ningsi, and Pan Yu and Baigu Mountain are separated from the outside!"
"It can't be robbery," Shen Lie said in a deep voice, "Three villages were burned down in a row, and they were at the pass of Baigu Mountain. They didn't have the need."
"Why?"
"Without explanation," Shen Lie turned his head and looked at Dai Yu, "quickly pick 600 people. There is no need to break camp. They will set off with me immediately. Zhai Jinsheng, prepare your horses."
"Yes!" The two of them quickly accepted the order.
"General, I'll go with you!" Liang Jun said hurriedly.
"You stay and take charge of the situation." Shen Lie turned back to get the weapon.
"No way!" Liang Jun followed, "The other side has 500 people and we only have 600. General, please bring more people!"
"These people, the more people there are, the less effective they will be." Shen Lie pulled out a long gun from outside the trunk, "Then the number of people is similar, they will be on guard."
"It seems to make some sense," Liang Jun muttered, then followed Shen Lie back, "General, come back quickly, you haven't eaten yet!"
"Hot it up."
Zhai Jinsheng quickly brought the dragon eagle, Shen Lie leaped up on it gracefully, pulled the reins, and the horse headed towards the camp.
Dai Yu is also on horseback. Twelve people make a tent, so six hundred people make fifty.
As soon as they heard that they were going to travel, the soldiers, who had just finished eating and lying down to brag, ran out immediately.
In the distant countryside, there were several people holding up their trousers, shouting and rushing over.
Dai Yu finally discovered that these Tanzhou soldiers and horses had a hobby of going out to defecate together.
"Hurry up!" Dai Yu yelled, "I'm just waiting for you guys!"
"It's very fast, it's really fast, I didn't even wipe my shit!" someone shouted.
Everyone laughed.
"What are you laughing at!" Dai Yu roared.
Everyone immediately fell silent.
At this time, they saw Shen Lie coming over there.
After approaching this end, Dragon Eagle slowed down, and as it walked slowly, the soldiers stopped laughing at all.
Everyone immediately looked forward, not daring to squint, not even daring to take a look at Shen Lie from the corner of their eyes.
At first, everyone was confused by his handsome appearance, and thought that his achievements were all fake, until he "attacked" Mountain View later.
Shen Lie promised that if he could hurt him one point against five, he would retreat immediately and receive a reward of ten thousand gold.
Five people were defeated miserably.
He shouted for five more people.
Ten people were defeated miserably.
Continue adding five more people.
After thirty people were added, the first five stopped fighting, saying they were too tired, and asked if they could surrender directly.
Finally, the rest of the people surrendered together, and thirty people knelt on the ground.
The Tanzhou soldiers and horses behind were stunned.
However, Mountain View is easy to fight and doesn't even need to be fought.
The imperial court was in chaos, military pay could not be paid, and mining technology was not in place. The entire Mountain View City garrison was poor and hungry. When they met a rich general like Shen Lie, they wanted to call him daddy the moment they opened the city gate.
Shen Lie's move was to establish his authority.
Not only in front of these Mountain View City defenders, but also in front of those disobedient soldiers and horses in Tanzhou.
After the soldiers who were holding up their trousers returned to the team, Dai Yu walked towards Shen Lie: "Young Master."
Shen Lie holds a spear in his hand, wears a pine-green gown with a waistband, and is decorated with a black jade waistband. He looks casual and sharp, not like a young general, but more like a silent and cruel wandering swordsman.
He looked at the crowd and said, "I know you don't want to walk anymore. There is a group of horse thieves in front of you. Whoever seizes their horse will ride away."
Everyone's eyes widened, and then they were overjoyed.
