The Golden Age Chapter 962: No way to return
Wu Qing Tage looked cold, thoughtful, and did not answer.
Qin Xiao glanced at the people on the top of the mountain. It was late at night, and the cold wind was biting. Many people squatted on the ground, their whole bodies squeezed together, knowing that even if they were from the prairie, they were still in such bad weather. The top of the mountain, I'm afraid it's hard to withstand such a chill.
"Can there be food?" Qin Xiao asked Ximenhao.
Ximenhao smiled bitterly and shook his head, and said: "They attacked suddenly and we had no time to bring food. All the goods were left at the camp."
"I didn't expect them to come so quickly." Tagg also looked solemnly: "If it weren't for your reminder, our casualties would have been more severe. Our camp is very rushed, and no one can care about carrying food."
Qin Xiao sighed: "Without food and water, as long as these people trap us on the mountain, we will not freeze to death, we will starve to death."
"I'm really sorry to trouble you." Wu Qingtag said sincerely.
"It's useless to say it now." Qin Xiao thought about it for a while, then asked: "You were attacked, and you were divided into two groups. Your path went all the way to the west. On the way, someone saw Targe being chased and killed. ?"
Tag shook his head and said: "The location they chose to intercept must have been planned in advance. There is no big account in that area, and during their pursuit, they blocked our way in other directions and could only go west. The other team broke through to the south. If they can break through, they may be able to ask for help from the big account, but...!"
"In this way, the real feather department does not know that their Targe was hunted down?" Qin Xiao frowned and said, "Surely we can't wait for reinforcements?"
"When the winter comes, the grasslands will not change places. They will stay in the account for the winter." Tag explained: "There was a small tribe at the foot of the barren mountain that was protected by us. In winter, they will all migrate to In the True Feather Grassland, only a small number of people are left to guard the pasture. After the beginning of the spring, other talents will drive the livestock back. The nearest tribes around here also have fifty or sixty miles, and they all know that there are grass guards here, so in winter, Unless there are special circumstances, it is inaccessible here and no one will come."
Qin Xiao smiled bitterly: "No one came, that is to say, even if these cavalry besieged us for ten and a half days under the mountain, no one will know?"
Wu Qingtag hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
"We can't go down the mountain by ourselves, and we don't have any reinforcements. It seems we are really going to die here." Qin Xiao squatted down on the edge of the cliff, but already found that the masked cavalry by the corridor was carrying stones from all around. , Stunned, and said to Wu Qingtag: "Look at what they are doing?"
Wu Qingtag looked down from a high position. Although she couldn't match Qin Xiao's eyesight at night, she probably saw the clues. Liu frowned and said, "They are going to block the passage with stones."
"Yes." Qin Xiao nodded and said: "This is a determined effort to trap us on the top of this mountain."
When several people nearby heard it, they came over and saw that the cavalry was blocking the corridor with stones, and their discoloration changed in amazement.
Wu Qingtag hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "If I go down the mountain, will they let everyone go?"
"It's all this time, don't say such silly words." Qin Xiao said in a bad mood: "Before going down the mountain, he let the archer shoot you, so he didn't want you to live. Now blocking the corridor, then It’s to trap us on the mountain. Then they can achieve their goal as long as they hold the exit. How can they negotiate terms with you?"
Wu Qingtag glared at Qin Xiao. At this moment, I remembered that Qin Xiao had called her a "stupid" before, and it was not easy to argue in front of so many people.
The cavalry didn’t have much time, and they had completely blocked the tunnel. A group of people sat on the rocks beside the tunnel exit. They all yelled at the mountain, triumphantly, and apparently knew that the people on the top of the mountain had fallen into it. Desperate.
"Wuqingtag, you are the number one beauty in the Modong grassland. I heard that you have never married. A woman in the grassland has never tasted a man until she died. Isn't it a pity?" Someone joked down the mountain. Smiled and said: "Why don't you come down, we teach you how to become a real woman."
Amidst the roar of laughter, someone said: "Tag, we won't kill you, you choose a lover from us and marry him."
"I only heard that Tag was the number one beauty before. I saw it this time because I really wanted to have a good appearance, a figure and a figure." The cavalry brazenly said, "No wonder your horsemanship is amazing, so great. Of course, sitting on horseback’s **** is safe."
"Tag, if you are willing to marry me, I am willing to be your horse forever." The prairie man had no scruples at all, and he was even more presumptuous when he called out: "Your big **** is sitting on me, I can't even sweat profusely."
Someone laughed and said: "You are really ignorant, just staring at Tag's big ass, don't you see her breasts, just that breasts, raising ten or eight children."
Everyone laughed presumptuously. Wu Qingtag was ashamed and annoyed. At this moment, he heard a scream. The masked cavalry who were sitting on the rock screamed in horror and jumped up, but It turned out that someone had been shot and killed by an arrow. Wu Qingtag turned his head and looked over, only to see Lu Xiaolou closing his bow. Obviously he couldn't understand the indecent words of the cavalry and shot him.
Although the corridor is blocked, standing on the edge of the cliff can clearly see the situation outside the corridor. With Lu Xiaolou's strength, this distance is just within his arrow.
The cavalry obviously knew that the tunnel exit was not safe. If they continue to stay here, they can only be the target of the archer on the top of the mountain. They know that there is a **** archer on the mountain who kills one arrow, so they dare not stay there anymore. On the side, they withdrew one after another, widened their distances, and hid out of range.
Although Lu Xiaolou shot and killed one person, everyone knew that it was of no avail and was not happy.
"Tage, you are injured." Qin Xiao saw that Wu Qing Tage's arm had been shattered. It was obviously cut by a knife. He took a small porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it over: "This is medicine for wounds. , Apply to the wound, not only can stop the bleeding, but also make the wound heal quickly."
Tag hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Thank you!" He took the bottle and asked his staff to help apply the medicine.
Qin Xiao swept away the snow on the ground, sat down, and looked up at the night sky with a solemn expression.
Xi Menhao also looked desperate, sat down beside Qin Xiao, smiled bitterly: "It's me who is not good, I...!"
"It has nothing to do with you." Qin Xiao knew that he was blaming himself again, and said softly: "On the contrary, if it weren't for me to come to the grassland, you would stay in Hangzhou well now. I really want to say sorry, it's me. I'm sorry you and these brothers." He stood up, looked back, and walked to Wang Dang's side. The three guards were depressed. Seeing Qin Xiao coming, they wanted to get up, but Qin Xiao pressed his shoulders and said softly. : "Are there any injuries?"
"Tan Fu was stabbed twice in the back. Fortunately, it is not fatal. We have already treated the wound." Wang Dang respectfully said, and then said sadly: "Tian Hu died in battle, we...we are the capital of the dead. I couldn't bring it up."
When they set off, they all brought the healing medicine from the army, and Wang Dang and the others were veterans and were very good at dealing with wounds.
"Are we...can't we go back?" Wang Dang's side looked at Qin Xiao and asked softly.
Qin Xiao smiled and said: "Don't worry, since I brought you out, I will always find a way to take you back."
The man's lips moved slightly and he wanted to say something, Wang Dang frowned and stopped him: "Don't talk nonsense, let... let the son take a rest."
Everyone at the top of the mountain knows that they are in desperate situation and their mood is down. Now even if they want to rush down to fight to the death with the masked cavalry, they have no chance. The tunnel is blocked and they want to fight.
There is no chance.
But no one complained, just wrapped in a padded jacket and bowed their heads in silence.
Several female eagle guards helped Wuqing Tag to deal with the injury, and the remaining wounding medicine was also applied to the other injured. Seeing Qin Xiao walked to the edge of the cliff alone, Tag hesitated and went away. In the past, he asked softly: "How did you untie the rope?"
Qin Xiao smiled and said: "It's just a few small methods. Those people have poor skills in tying the ropes. They can be untied without any effort. Is Targe very interested?"
"I am still worried that your plan will not be implemented if your hands are tied. If you don't cough on the side, I will refuse them to help our arms." Tagg whispered: "It seems that you are really good at it. ."
"If Tag is interested, I will teach you later." Qin Xiao said: "I dare not say anything else. The general binding method can be solved."
Tag lightly sighed: "I'm afraid I won't need to untie the rope anymore." After finishing speaking, Qin Xiao turned to look east, and Qin Xiao asked softly: "Your real feather tent is in the east. How far is it from here?"
"More than two hundred miles." Tagg shook his head and smiled bitterly: "No one will come here in winter, I can't count on it."
Qin Xiaodao: "Does Zhen Yu Khan know where you are going? If you are late, will someone report Zhen Yu Khan?"
Wu Qingtag's expression was even more sad, and he whispered softly: "Father Khan just returned to heaven not long ago."
Qin Xiao's body was shocked, and he lost his voice: "Zhen Yuhan, he...!" With a look of horror, he stopped in time, but didn't say anything afterwards, and everyone else glanced here. , And didn't care too much.
Qin Xiao came to the grassland this time. The most important thing was to meet True Feather Khan. It would be better if he could form an alliance with True Feather. Otherwise, he also hopes to have a large war horse trade with True Feather, but At this time, I was shocked to hear that Zhen Yu Khan had actually passed away.
His reaction made Tag a little surprised, and asked in doubt: "Do you know Father Khan?"
"I don't know." Qin Xiao smiled bitterly: "Tag, I heard that you are the heir to the rank of Khan, and Zhenyu Khan has passed away. Will you inherit the rank of Khan?" I thought if Wuqingtag became the heir of the Khan rank. , I can also be regarded as a life-saving grace to her this time, I am afraid it will be more convenient for everyone to discuss the war horse matters.
But now everyone is trapped on the top of the mountain, even if Wuqingtag becomes Zhenyuhan, even if the negotiation is a deal, I am afraid it will be a waste of work.
Wu Qingtag hesitated, but shook his head without saying much.
Qin Xiao has experienced in Kyoto. Wherever he knows people, there are rivers and lakes. Where there are rivers and lakes, there must be competition for power. According to common sense, if Zhenyu Khan passes away, once Wuqingtag is the heir, he must quickly inherit the position of Khan. It is not good for a snake to have a head, and the tribe is in a state of a group of dragons without a head. Of course it is not a good thing.
The tribal sweat will naturally guard the Khan Court, but Wuqingtag was volleyed on the way to the racecourse, which proves that there is still a problem with the current position of the Khan in the real feather. After thinking about it for a moment, I finally frowned. Said: "Tag, maybe I'm presumptuous, but...I still want to know, has your ministry's sweat status changed?"
Wu Qing Tag was unwilling to discuss the Khan status with others, not to mention that the other party was from the Tang Dynasty, but seeing Qin Xiao's eyes seemed a little anxious, he hesitated, and finally nodded slightly: "After Father Khan has returned to heaven, indeed There are many people who support me to inherit the Khan position, but...my uncle Zuo Dadu has also received many people's support. He seems to be sure to win the Khan position, which is inevitable internal struggle. The Khan position has not yet decided who should be. Inheritance, I originally had to wait until all the Tutun elders of the tribe held a meeting before discussing, but the Wuluolan Pasture suddenly changed and the situation was critical. I could only take people to the pasture to deal with it. I didn't expect to be intercepted halfway... !"
Qin Xiao's expression became even more stern, staring at Wu Qing Tage, and whispered: "I seem to understand the strangeness!"
