These three days were mainly about formulating a set of laws for Loulan in accordance with the Qin Law and establishing the Legalist system.
On the third day, Shen Bing rushed back to his aunt, because Wang Ben sent news from his aunt, saying that the people in his aunt were also showing signs of reform...
In fact, not only Gu Shi, but also He Wen Jing Jue, Pi Shan and several other countries close to Loulan were also ready to take action after hearing the news.
This is normal.
The people of slave countries have been suffering under the oppression of the aristocracy for a long time. Their desire to overthrow the aristocratic rule is like a volcano. On the surface, there seems to be no movement, but internally the lava is surging undercurrents.
The precedent of Loulan was like opening a mouth in the volcano, triggering a wave of reform of the entire Western Region system.
Shen Bing, who was riding on his horse and was heading towards Gu Shi, was quite proud when he heard the news, because now he was not far away from the Western Region Allied Forces' expedition against the Huns.
The only difficulty may be Qiuci, which claims to be the largest country in the Western Region.
King Qiuci may have heard the news earlier, so he took the lead in implementing a news blockade in the city... Because of the news blockade, most people in the city did not know about it. Only the people outside the city made noises, but they were suppressed soon after.
However, Shen Bing believes that this is only a matter of time. At worst, Shen Bing will engage in several waves of propaganda wars.
At this time, Shen Bing was thinking more about whether to get out the saddle and stirrups...
Before, it was because they were worried that the Xiongnu would become stronger after learning these things, but now if Shen Bing can have tens of thousands of cavalry from the Western Regions, plus the Qin cavalry, it is also a force that cannot be humiliated.
If the Huns could be equipped with saddles and stirrups and cause heavy casualties in one battle, then even if the iron-deficient Huns knew the reason and successfully imitated it, they would not have time to mass-produce it in a short time.
Thinking of Shen Bing, he nodded secretly and felt that the time was almost here.
At this time, Shen Bing felt that the sky suddenly turned dark.
When I looked up, I saw that half of the sky was covered in dark clouds, as if someone had suddenly come over with a black umbrella.
He shouted:
"No, it's a sandstorm."
"General, we should quickly find a mountain to take shelter from the wind, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous!"
Shen Bing couldn't help but change his expression when he heard this... He had also heard of sandstorms in modern times, but he had never experienced them. He didn't expect to be so lucky today.
He looked around and shouted anxiously:
"If what I remember is correct, there is a hill five miles southwest!"
"Hurry to the leeward place and you'll be out of danger!"
With that said, he shouted loudly and drove his horse forward to lead the way. Shen Bing and a group of personal guards also hurriedly followed behind.
However, this sandstorm came at a moment's notice. Before Shen Bing and his party could run out, the sand was flying over them.
Only then did Shen Bing realize why people from the Western Regions always like to wear a headscarf... The wind and sand kept drilling into their mouth and nose along with their breathing, and after a while even breathing became difficult.
Shen Bing quickly took a piece of clothing from his backpack and covered his mouth and nose as a mask.
In just a moment of confusion, Shen Bing realized that he had separated from the team... The wind and sand made the surrounding visibility extremely poor, and even if they were face to face, they could only see a faint shadow.
Shen Bing wanted to shout, but the howling of the wind in his ears made him realize that it would be useless, so he could only gallop forward on his horse.
I don't know how long it took, but I finally vaguely saw a mountain peak in front of me. Shen Bing was overjoyed and immediately stepped forward and rushed to the leeward side.
As expected, the wind was much lighter on the leeward side. Shen Bing jumped off his horse and found a cave. He was about to hide in but he tripped.
Looking down, he saw a corpse dressed as a herdsman lying in the sand... It wasn't a corpse to be exact, because Shen Bing felt that it was still moving.
Shen Bing didn't think much and dragged the "body" into the cave.
After lighting the fire, Shen Bing looked in the direction of the "corpse" and found that it was actually a woman, with delicate features and pretty eyes.
After sniffing, it turned out that he was still alive, so Shen Bing felt relieved.
Unexpectedly, the woman suddenly woke up, and without saying a word, she drew out the short blade and pressed it against Shen Bing's neck.
Shen Bing quickly explained:
"Girl, I didn't do anything!"
The woman was stunned when she heard the voice, and then asked in blunt Chinese dialect:
"Qin people?"
Shen Bing nodded hurriedly:
"People from Qin."
Shen Bing thought that announcing the name Qin Ren would shock the woman. After all, the Qin Army's reputation in the Western Regions was extraordinary at this time, and he might even make a promise to her because of it...
But unexpectedly, the woman let out a "hum", and while letting go of the short blade, she cursed coldly:
"Qin people are not good people."
"If it weren't for you saving me, I would have taken your life on this trip."
Shen Bing "Gulu" swallowed his saliva.
Although he didn't know how the Qin people had offended this woman, it couldn't be wrong to say that the enemy was not a friend.
Thinking of Shen Bing, he took two steps back to the other side of the cave. Although the Qin army had won successive victories in the Western Region, it would inevitably create enemies, so it was better to be careful.
Only then did Shen Bing regret that he had not learned any martial arts.
But then again, since Shen Bing came to this world, he has been busy running back and forth, and he never has time to learn martial arts.
What's more, if you learn martial arts and have some skills, what will happen?
Most people in this era learned swordsmanship, fighting, bow and arrow, etc. from an early age. Shen Bing could not compare with them even if he studied for several months.
After a while, I heard the woman ask:
"May I have your name?"
Shen Bing hesitated for a moment.
He secretly thought that if he told her his real name, she would immediately know that he was the enemy coach!
So he replied:
"My name is Jia Ming."
Jia Ming is a pseudonym. If a Central Plains person heard this name, they might be suspicious, but the woman Shen Bingliang's unfamiliar Central Plains dialect could not tell anything.
Sure enough, the woman had no doubts, she just took out a piece of jade from her arms and threw it over:
"This is to exchange for the horses outside your cave. This is enough for you to exchange for ten horses."
Shen Bing looked at the woman dressed as a herdsman and saw that she was eager to get a horse, so he asked:
"Who is the girl hiding from?"
"If I'm being chased by bad guys, I have a few friends nearby. All I need to do is..."
The woman was surprised, stood up and asked:
"You mean Qin Jun?"
Only then did Shen Bing realize that he had said the wrong thing.
However, Shen Bing was still a little strange. So far, the Qin army had only captured Loulan and Gu Shi, and they came in as "liberators." There should be no enemies in the Western Region. Could this woman be a Huns?
Just when Shen Bing was confused, he heard a cry from outside the cave, speaking in the dialect of the Western Regions.
Although Shen Bing didn't understand, he knew from the look on the woman's face that she was here to see her.
Shen Bing groaned secretly, should he save him or not?
Help!
There were at least a dozen people outside the cave, and he and this woman together were only two people.
The result is probably blood splattered on the spot.
Don’t save me!
Just watching a woman being snatched away by gangsters?
