Ma Jinhu was very satisfied with Yun Zheng. He lived a happy life following such a decisive person. Just like under Zhong Shuai, he didn't smell the smell of sourness.
If something didn't suit him, Ma Jinhu opened his mouth and laughed. This was also a general who had seen dead people.
Yun Zheng had read this description in a book a long time ago: "Death is hovering at the top of the city like a crow, leaving only dead silence on the earth. It is not only people who are killed, but also the human heart. Death is so terrifying."
People are afraid..."
Looking back at Yizhou, I found that the spring scenery was still bright there, the willow trees were sprouting, and the grass was struggling to emerge from the ground. From a distance, it looked like a patch of goose-yellow, but when I got closer, it was still a bare land.
You can see Wangjia Mountain from here. This name is just a kind imagination of the people. The king ran away, and the ministers put stones under their feet like a widow looking forward to her son, preparing to climb high and look far away, and finally build a mountain?
Ridiculous, there are only bandits on the mountain. Yunzheng chose a place to camp with mountains and water at his back, and also set up sentries on the top of the mountain. The plum blossom-shaped sentry was something that had never been seen before in the Song Dynasty. The six bright and dark sentry posts were enough to provide some security for the army.
Without news from Han Lin and the others, Yun Zheng was not going to take a step forward. The tails of his war horses were filled with kerosene. Once the situation got out of hand, Yun Zheng's last resort was to light the horses' tails on fire and completely disperse the horses.
Let these robbers get nothing.
As long as there are no horses as a burden, he and his two hundred men can easily find a mountain ravine and flee back to Jingzhao Mansion. Although these horses are precious, they are not as valuable as the lives of his men. If he fails this time, he will find a way to escape from the alien race.
It's just a matter of people getting horses.
Talent is the foundation, and the war horses should be forgotten. Saving the war horses and then killing all of his subordinates would be considered a great victory by the Song Dynasty court, but in my own eyes, this would be the biggest fucking failure.
Kai Ming and Ge Qiuyan have been hiding in their carriage for the past few days. Sometimes there will be arguments, but they will reconcile soon. As long as they stay in the carriage obediently, Yun Zheng will not
I don't care what they do.
It wasn't until dinner in the evening that Wei Ming asked Yun Zheng to close his eyes with a smile, saying that he had a gift for Yun Zheng and didn't want to let down their kindness. Yun Zheng closed his eyes, but to his surprise, Wei Ming actually put a mask on his face.
When she opened her eyes, she saw that it was very visual. She dug two holes in the mask and took a mold with her hands. The top was very rough. It looked like the mask was not exquisite at all.
When I took the mask off and turned it over, I discovered that it was a Grimace mask. The mask was made of willow bark, but I didn't know what the two big teeth exposed in the Grimace's big mouth were.
Prince Lanling wears a mask because he is so beautiful. Huo Qubing and Di Qing also have the same problem. His face is quite upright. The reason why he looks more handsome to others is because he and Di Qing
The Qingtang savages and Xixia people stood together. If it were in Jinjiang Academy, this face should be splashed with sulfuric acid to show a little different characteristics.
"You are born with a smiling face. You smile when you see everyone. You smile when you see officials, shepherds, sergeants, living people, and dead people. Let me make you a mask to give your face a rest.
"
Yun Zheng's nose suddenly became sore at these words, and he put on the mask without saying a word. This thing is used to cover up one's ugliness, and Yun Zheng has no intention of taking it off today.
When Han Lin came, he looked at Yun Zheng who was wearing a mask with confusion. Not only was he very uncomfortable, but Wugou who was sitting opposite Yun Zheng was also very uncomfortable. Han Lin was not used to it no matter how he looked at it, so he wanted to reach out and take it off.
Rejected by Yun Zheng, he just walked around the military camp and received rave reviews. Liang Ji and Peng Jiu decisively said that the general has the style of a general and will enter the Privy Council sooner or later. He will not let Privy Di be more beautiful than before. Jiazi
The brothers in the battalion also felt that the general should wear a mask to look majestic.
Although Ma Jinhu didn't think so, he just curled his lips and didn't say much. Since everyone thought it was better to wear a mask, Yun Zheng also thought that wearing a mask was much better than not wearing one.
"Di Qing wore the mask to cover the gold mark on his face and prevent the enemy from knowing that he was a prisoner. You..."
Yun Zheng stopped Han Lin from talking, took out the map, and asked Han Lin to perfect the half-finished map. Han Lin took the brush, pointed at Wangji Mountain and said: "The mountains here are steep, with a ditch sandwiched between two mountains.
The Jinghe River runs through it, and the road is actually a wetland by the river. It takes a long time for carriages to pass there, because the road that can be used by carriages is too narrow. The earliest place here was actually Qinchi Road. Qinchi Road followed the Six Rites
A foot width is a must. The road there is less than four feet. It was probably demolished by the bandits themselves in order to delay the passage of carriages.
We have many carriages and horses. It is impossible to pass quickly. There are bandits on both sides of the mountain. They don't even need to fight us. They only need to throw flying rocks, which is enough for us to drink a pot.
Langrig and I tried to get rid of the bandits there, but found that many of the caves they lived in were accessible and extremely dangerous. I retreated less than a hundred feet into a cave, otherwise I would get lost in it.
All the bandits here live in caves, and caves extend in all directions. If you want to repeat what happened in Zhao Gongshan, you may not be able to do it. Lang Lige caught four alive, and Sun Qizhi only found out after asking about all the secrets of the six heads of Kongtong Mountain.
We are all back, waiting for you to pass by Kongtong Mountain.
We wanted to look for opportunities to snipe King Gaitian, but we couldn't find him. We couldn't even find the other heads. There are too many caves here. The whole mountain is riddled with holes. They are hiding everywhere.
Earth, so, you have encountered a problem this time."
Yun Zheng looked at Han Lin constantly marking new addresses on the map, and asked nonchalantly: "Is King Gaitian planning to kill us or grab the war horse?"
Han Lin looked up at Yun Zheng and said: "The first goal is naturally to grab the war horses. They originally did not plan to expose the strength of Kongtong Mountain early. They wanted to develop and grow slowly. Now as long as they have thousands of war horses, they will immediately
They will transform from thieves who sit on the ground to divide the stolen goods into rogue bandits who spread all over the world. Of course, it is better for a group of several thousand people to attack the weakly defended state capital than to stay in the mountains. Therefore, snatching war horses is their first priority. Everyone knows that
, once these war horses are kidnapped, it will be a very serious problem for the Song Dynasty. Not only will the surrounding state capitals be corrupted, but it will also be a very big threat to the border troops. Fu Bi of Jingzhao Mansion will definitely get rid of them at all costs.
Bandits of Kongtong Mountain.
Those bandits also made their decision after weighing the pros and cons, and everyone knows that war horses cannot afford to make mistakes."
Yun Zheng took off his mask and put it on the table and said with a smile: "Since they paid such a high price to rob the officers and soldiers just to get the war horses, then things will be easy to handle."
Han Lin, who was drinking tea, squirted out a sip of tea and looked at Yun Zheng doubtfully and said, "Easy to handle? Why can't the old Taoist see it?"
Yun Zheng knocked the mask on the table with his hand and said: "Actually, I was also inspired by this mask. When I don't wear the mask, I am Yun Zheng and Yun Changsheng. After wearing the mask, God knows who I am, and you also know,
My heart may be dirty, or dirtier than most people.
When I don't wear a mask, in order to maintain this facade, I may be kind, open-minded, and even grateful. But when I put on the mask, I will use another way of thinking to think about things in this world, such as war horses.
Yun Zheng, who is not wearing a mask, knows the significance of these war horses to the Song Dynasty, and also knows the preciousness of these war horses. Some of my subordinates will die for them, or all of them will die. As long as the war horses can be intact, I will be a worthy hero, and my subordinates will fight.
Even if I die, I only need a pension of fifteen thousand dollars. I have so many war horses, am I afraid that I can't afford the pension?
In this way, I am a hero of the Song Dynasty in the court, and I am still the good general in the Jiazi camp, because I never deduct money and food from my brothers, and I am even more generous with their pensions. No one will scold me. Those Jiazi camp
The brothers in the camp will still sacrifice their lives for me."
Yun Zheng said this and put on a mask under Han Lin's painful gaze. A sinister voice came from behind the mask, which seemed to contain endless evil.
"Now that I am a masked man, let me tell you what I think as a masked man.
The preciousness of the war horse lies in its value. The more the Song Dynasty needs it, the more expensive I will sell the war horse. You must know that the price is determined by supply and demand. The stronger the Song Dynasty's desire for a war horse, the price of the war horse.
The more expensive it is.
In the eyes of the masked man, the most precious thing in the world is not money at all, but a large group of subordinates who are ready to die for me at any time. As long as they live, I am an omnipotent giant, and there is nothing that can be done with just one hand.
, two hands are easier, thousands of hands can do it easily.
I like this feeling of omnipotence. In the eyes of the masked man, the war horse is just money, or a big pile of money. Since it is money, its value cannot keep up with my subordinates. In this case, why should I take my precious
What about exchanging something for some money?
Think about it from another perspective, Han Lin, if the bandits want war horses, they will definitely have the same idea as Yun Zheng, and would rather trade the lives of their men for war horses. In this case, why should I carry this big burden of war horses? Instead of giving them as gifts.
Should the other party carry it?
War horses have been weapons since ancient times. You can light a fire on its tail and let it charge into battle, or tie a knife to its head and use it as a fire ox, or you can put war horses next to you and surround a warrior with several horses.
War horse, taking the war horse as a hostage is a very good idea.
Think about it, in the cold forest, bandits have occupied the cliff. When we walk underneath, stones will be thrown down. But if the crowd is mixed with the horses, the bandits will not throw stones down, right? Because they are afraid of hurting the horses. I dare
Said, their dead lives are not as valuable as war horses." (To be continued)
