"You have been walking on the grassland all year round, will you encounter a lot of dangers?" Thinking of the bloody and cruel Turks, Tang Jian turned to look at the man next to him and asked with a sigh.
"Haha, we are better off, no one dares to rob our Xiao family caravan now!" Hearing this, the man grinned.
Walking on the grassland all year round gave his face a special dark red color burned by the sun. When he smiled, his two rows of teeth were extremely white, very similar to those wild wolves that roamed deep in the grassland.
"Oh? Why? Have these Turks changed their temper? Is it still Xiaohou's name that even the grassland people are afraid of?" Tang Jian looked at him with a smile and asked.
Doesn't he believe that those Turkic bandits who can even kill their own people will exercise restraint against a caravan that is obviously extremely rich?!
Since the Dan man in front of him said so, and he was Xiao Han's person, Tang Jian wanted to hear how they could be alone on this grassland.
"Bah, do you expect those things to change their gender? That's not a dream to get a wife, it's a beautiful idea!" The man looked at the tribe in the distance and took a sip, his dark and red face filled with deep contempt!
After spitting, he paused and continued: "As for the title of Marquis, it is really useful in our Tang Dynasty! But among the Turks, many of them can't even tell what their own khan is called. How is it possible?
Are you trying to sell off my Marquis’s face? The reason why our Xiao family’s caravan can travel freely in the grassland is because of..."
Having said this, the man suddenly lowered his voice, turned back mysteriously and pointed at the dozens of caravan personnel following him, as well as the big flag with the character "Xiao" stuck on the cart, and said to Tang Jian: "Damn it.
It's them!"
"them?"
Tang Jian looked in the direction the man pointed, with a slight shock on his face.
He could understand the big flag symbolizing status, but the dozens of caravan members were all tall, short, fat and thin. No matter how you looked at them, they didn't look like ruthless people who could fight one against a hundred!
You know, bandits on the grassland are not full-timers.
Most of them are just ordinary tribesmen on weekdays. When they accidentally see fat meat passing by, they get greedy! They will leave their cattle and sheep behind, join each other, and roar over!
There are usually hundreds of bandits like this, and some medium-sized tribes can even dispatch a thousand people!
As for large tribes with tens of thousands of mercenaries, they basically won't do this kind of thing anymore.
First, because such a large tribe has no shortage of caravans! Second, because these caravans originally came to them and stopped to trade within their tribe.
If a robbery prevents people from coming back, it is inevitable that the goose is being killed, and the gain is not worth the loss.
But even if a large tribe does not participate in the robbery, can dozens of monkey men in the caravan repel hundreds of bandits roaring towards them?
"Are the people in your caravan very skilled in martial arts?" Tang Jian looked at the caravan members standing or sitting on the grassland with some astonishment. He held his hands in front of him and prepared to ask for advice humbly.
"Martial arts?"
Unexpectedly, the man frowned when he heard this, looked at Tang Jian strangely and said, "Why did Mr. Tang say this? They are just ordinary caravan guys, they can only do a few crops, but they have nothing to do with martial arts!"
"
"Then what you just said depends on them?" Tang Jian stared at the man, the corner of his mouth twitched a few times, thinking, are you kidding me?
"Oh?" When the man saw Tang Jian's appearance, he suddenly understood and grinned: "Hahahahaha! Mr. Tang, you are wrong. If you fight against the robbers, how many people will die? When we meet the robbers, we will
Rely on them to do something!”
"What's the matter?" Tang Jian asked eagerly. He was really curious about what these dozens of people could do to resist the ferocious Turks.
Seeing Tang Jian's eager look, the man didn't show any concern. He smiled, opened his mouth and uttered one word: "Run!"
"What? Run?" When Tang Jian heard the word, he thought he heard it wrong at first. When he was sure that there was nothing wrong with his ears, he opened his eyes wide and looked straight at the man, as if he wanted to touch his face.
I can see one flower on it.
"That's right, just run!" The man turned a blind eye to Tang Jian's astonished eyes, stretched out a carrot-like finger and scratched in the air, and said proudly: "When we first came to the grassland, the Marquis told us:
When bandits come to the prairie, no matter what is in the car, don't feel bad, just drop the things and run away! Saving your life is more important than anything else!"
"Putting people more important than things is indeed Xiao Hou's style." Tang Jian nodded. Xiao Han could indeed do this, but he still didn't understand: could the Turks just run away?
Stealing their things? Isn’t this nonsense?
"If you just run away, it's okay once or twice, but if you run too many times, won't you become a money-giving boy? With your stingy character, you won't be able to do this business, right?" He looked at the man in confusion,
Tang Jian continued to ask.
The man also knew that Tang Jian had a close relationship with his Marquis, so he was not angry when he heard that his Marquis was stingy. He still said with a smile: "Tang Gong Mingjian, we are a caravan, so naturally we can't do money-losing business! So!
I ran away, but I wonder if you have heard of it, Mr. Tang? As long as the tribe robs our caravan, a strange disaster will surely happen in less than three days!"
"A strange disaster is coming?" Hearing these four words suddenly, Tang Jian's heart suddenly trembled for some reason, as if he thought of something.
"Yes, it's a strange disaster!" The man didn't notice anything strange about Tang Jian, but he still nodded heavily, with a look of relief on his face: "Either it was thunder from the sky, or fire from the earth! Anyway, as long as we rob our Xiao family business
I have never heard of anyone from the team’s tribe having a good ending, ranging from the loss of all their property to the death of both humans and animals!
I remember the most terrible time. A medium-sized tribe with three to four thousand people was turned into ruins overnight! Those Turks who ran out late at night cried when they saw people, saying that their tribe had offended the gods on the grassland.
, so the gods punished them with thunder!
As for how to anger the gods, they said it was because they robbed our caravan! So after several similar disasters, no one dared to rob our Xiao family’s caravan anymore. Now some robbers rushed over and saw that it was
We can run faster than we came!"
"God, thunder?" After listening to what the man said, Tang Jian narrowed his eyes again, and there seemed to be light flowing in the gap.
"Then after you ran away, would you report to Xiao Hou that the caravan was robbed?" Tang Jian touched his chin and asked in a low voice.
The man smiled boldly: "Then you must report it! But instead of reporting to the Marquis, we have a dedicated person in charge of this, just tell him directly! After telling him, within a few days, those tribes will
