The Sacred Ding Chapter 236: Montenegro Allied Forces

Seeing that the Korean leaders all made Chen Hai tease in a few words, Fan Dachun felt reluctant and could only follow the trend.

Although Yequ Mountain had looted a large number of slaves before, the management was really crude. I didn't think about drawing up a detailed roster. In a short time, the more than 2,000 slaves could not distinguish the new and the old. Chen Hai asked Fan Dachun to do everything. They were exempted from hard labor, and then he took out five to six hundred thousand catties of grain from the warehouse, together with the more than three thousand acres of grain fields cultivated by the Yequ Lake and four to five hundred cattle and sheep, all were distributed to the slaves, so that these After slaves are exempted from hard labor, there is still family business to keep.

Although I thought that these things would be gone after the accident, and I couldn’t run away with them, but watching the years of savings are divided among the slaves who are in his own hands, Fan Dachun is still crying blood. , I couldn't bear to look at them, Chen Hai took the Korean language as them, and completed these things in two days.

Most of the slaves will be able to divide the grain, the fields and the livestock this time. They are full of excitement. There are also many slaves who have been looted for a short time, thinking about their wives and children.

Chen Hai appeased this group of people. Those who want to leave Yequ Mountain and return to their hometown will not be blocked here, but they are advised to stay in Yequ Mountain at ease for the time being. How can they wait until the beginning of spring when the weather is not there? It is so bad that it is possible to walk home alive before hitting the road.

In such bad weather, even if you bring plenty of food and water, ordinary people don’t want to be able to cross the vast desert. Even if you don’t lose your way, you will freeze to death in the sand when you encounter a blizzard.

Most of the slaves who were looted were herders and peasants who inhabited and multiplied in Pinglu and nearby oasis, and many of them were business travelers who traveled through the Xixia Corridor to fight for wealth with their lives, although there were cultivation bases. Fan Dachun and others were killed by Fan Dachun, but there are still many people who can read and hyphenate and have extraordinary knowledge.

In such a short period of time, Chen Hai was only able to select a dozen people to serve as the local officials of Yequ Mountain. After the horse thief left, they took over the defense of Shicheng in Yequ Mountain and were responsible for the distribution of grain, farmland and livestock. And follow-up farming and pastoral affairs.

Fan Dachun and the others occupies Yequ Mountain, and they have accumulated a lot of armor. Although they are all mainland goods that the elite horse thieves can't see, Chen Hai also took them out, letting the dozens of people choose some elites from the slaves. The generals got up to guard against monsters or sand wolves breaking into Yequ Mountain in the cold winter.

Fan Dachun is full of opinions about Chen Hai taking out the extra armor to arm the slaves, but the so-called three or four hundred slaves organized are strong and strong, all skinny and weak, and he can do it with just one finger Seven or eight were pinched to death, and they could only be regarded as the lowest and most incompetent servants in the Western Qiang Kingdom. There was really no threat to them, so they resisted not saying anything.

The thieves of all horses were ready, and they rode their horses through the vast sand, sea and snowy plains westward, turning to the southwest for more than 800 miles, arriving at Songyang Lake Oasis.

Although the Songyang Lake Oasis is not the only way through the old road of Xiqiang, it is also within the scope of the Xixia Corridor. There are streams flowing down from the ridges in the south and converging in the wasteland on the north foot. The big Songyang River.

Because of the rocky terrain along the Songyang River, the water infiltration is not serious, and it stretches to the north to form a medium-sized lake covering tens of thousands of acres. Forty to fifty miles around the lake are full of sparse trees and grasses. Even if it is covered in snow and ice in the cold winter, you can still feel the vitality that is not in the depths of the sand and sea.

The Songyang Lake Oasis is larger than the Yequ Mountain, but because the Songyang Lake Oasis is located within the Xixia Corridor, although the West Qiang State is unable to send elite soldiers and horses to station for a long time, it also strictly prohibits other forces from coming in. Sending a raid, so apart from occasional herdsmen stationed there, no horse thief force has the ability to take control of this place for a long time.

When Chen Hai and the others rushed to Songyang Lake, the other seventeenth-way horse thieves had already gathered here. A high black flag was erected on the shore of Songyang Lake. In addition to the embroidered pattern of the eagle's head, it also wrote a letter. The word "Black Mountain"; Fan Dachun and the others were the last to know the news, and they were delayed in Yequ Mountain for three or four days because of Chen Hai and Ning Chaner's sudden intervention.

The horse thief is in the depths of the vast desert and caught up with the harsh winter season. Although Jinzhou’s specialty long-haired horses are resistant to extreme cold in addition to their extreme endurance, they are the coldest seasons of the year in Jinzhou. Horses marching long distances in the wild are also attrition high. In order to ensure that the horses have sufficient strength when charging and entering the battlefield, every horse thief says less than one or two empty horses.

As a result, tens of thousands of horse thieves and 20,000 to 30,000 horses filled the lonely and desolate Songyang Lake in a flash.

It is impossible to have much trust among the horse thieves. When they rushed to Songyang Lake, Chen Hai, Ning Chan'er and the others also found a place with a lot of aquatic plants from a distance to stay, and kept a certain degree with other horse thieves. distance.

In order to avoid unnecessary vigilance and misunderstanding, the Yequshan horse thief thought Fan Dachun was the head, and Ning Chan'er and Chen Hai declared to the outside that they were just the leaders of Yequshan who had just entered.

Fan Dachun took the letter left by Hu Bilie after his death and went to meet with other horse thieves leaders to discuss future action arrangements.

No one knows what accidents will happen in the vast sea of ​​sand, or perhaps Hu Bilie and others temporarily changed and turned away. Hu Bilie and others did not show up, and the other horse thief leaders didn’t think there was anything unusual; Fan Dachun rushed over with fear. The other horse thief leaders met, but when they returned, nothing happened.

Other horse thieves didn’t pay much attention to Yequshan, and even before, they doubted whether the people of Yequshan had the courage to participate in this big case that was destined to shock the eastern regions of Jinzhou and Hexi. Some horse thief leaders were early Both days even suggested that Yequ Mountain should be leveled first.

Now Yequshan dispatched troops as scheduled. Others are embarrassed to take Yequshan, but they don’t pay much attention to Yequshan. They just want more than 400 people from Yequshan to stay in Songyang Lake temporarily and follow the big troops. Acting together, but the relatively difficult and dangerous missions, reconnaissance, and blockade of the Xixia Corridor did not involve Yequshan's personnel.

Fan Dachun couldn't hide his guilty conscience and returned to the camp, but still brought back some very important information.

The eighteenth-way horse thief, the three-way horse thief of the Black Mountain, Guhu Mountain, and Moyuehu Department are the strongest. Among them, the Black Mountain pirates are the strongest. The coalition formed is named Black Mountain, and the leader of the Black Mountain pirates, Kong Peng At the head of the joint decision on the major and minor matters of the action—Hu Bilie and others also contacted the horse thieves in the name of the black mountain bandits in the early days—Fan Dachun also brought back a "School Lieutenant General".

It's just that the formation of the Montenegrin coalition is really loose, just to facilitate this vote to be able to act in a unified way, and the internal constraints are far from as strong as imagined.

Two days ago, there was already a group of horse thieves who arrived in Songyang Lake ahead of schedule. They acted without authorization and robbed a caravan that had crossed the Songyang River and was going to Hexi.

At this time, he also set off to the caravan in Hexi, and the belongings he carried were destined to be attractive.

Although there were more than 400 horse thieves who acted without authorization, their strength was even slightly stronger than that of Yequ Mountain, which came out of their nests, but they failed to wipe out the caravan’s escorts and business trips, and many people fled. At the same time, there were too many traces left untreated, which was enough to alert the team of Hexi to send relatives.

The carriage team sent off from Hexi had originally set off from the Crescent Lake Oasis to the south of Yequ Mountain, but after being aware of the movement on the Songyang Lake side, they did not continue to move forward. At present, they retreat towards the Crescent Lake. .

In addition to sending outposts to the deeper north wing, the Hexi Chariots and Horses also sent envoys to the West Qiang State, requesting reinforcements to respond.

Songyang Lake is more than 4,000 miles away from the Pinglu Oasis. Even if the West Qiang State accepts the news and sends reinforcements to respond, it will move at the fastest speed. It will take ten and a half months for the vanguard to arrive. May be joined by the family sending team in Hexi.

There are now two opinions within the horse thief:

Some people advocated directly attacking Crescent Lake and snatching gifts and dowries from the alliance between the Dong family in Hexi and Xiqiang. Everyone divided the matter; these people who advocated this point were all horse thieves who came from afar to participate in this matter. , They are thinking of a quick fight and a quick decision, so as to save nights and dreams.

Some people also advocated ambushing the soldiers and horses sent by the Western Qiang State, and then going to Jiehexi's family-sending team.

In the boundless sea of ​​sand, even if the Hexi send-off team flees hurriedly, they have to travel thousands of miles to return to the border of Hexi. They have enough time to chase, and they want to rely on a few horse thieves. The opportunity to assemble, taking advantage of the strength of the army, I want to do a big vote. However, the West Qiang State hurriedly sent troops to reinforce it, making it difficult to assemble a large army, and it was also extremely rushed. They did have the opportunity to conduct an ambush halfway.

This point is mainly advocated by the horse thieves near the West Qiang Kingdom. After they robbed the relatives and sent their relatives, they still need to consider the **** revenge of the West Qiang Kingdom and the Hexi Dong family.

The Dong clan in Hexi is quite far away, especially after the marriage and alliance were destroyed, the Dong clan’s troops in Maxi came out of Tie Liuling, and they invaded the boundary of Jinzhou. They still have to consider the possibility of the follow-up of the West Qiang country. Some revenge, while thinking of robbing the Dao, can wipe out part of the elite forces of the Western Qiang State as much as possible, making the Western Qiang State unable to send troops to the desert to retaliate.

"Black Mountain, Guhuo Mountain, Moyue Lake Three Horse Thieves~IndoMTL.com~Who advocates ambushing the assistance of the Western Qiang Kingdom first?" Chen Hai frowned and asked Fan Dachun about the details of the proceedings.

The horse thieves are led by Heishan, Guhuo Mountain, and Moyue Lake. It is actually these three that have the final say. Other horse thieves can only get a piece of the pie and fight soy sauce, and they don't have much right to speak.

"Heishan and Moyuehu all advocate robbing the Hexi Carriage Team after burying the reinforcements of the Western Qiang Kingdom," Fan Dachun also said with a grievance, "Gu Huoshan advocated that the Hexi Carriage Team should be robbed. The property is lost. Everyone is headed by the black mountain bandits, but they come out to fight the house for the property. Why bother to fight with the elite soldiers of the West Qiang country?"

In the past, Fan Dachun would probably advocate a heavy blow to the reinforcements of the Western Qiang Kingdom.

The weaker the Western Qiang Army, the more comfortable they are in Yequ Mountain, but at this time, Fan Dachun and their lives are in the hands of Ning Chan'er, and they are not willing to branch out.

However, no matter how you fight, Ye Qushan has no right to speak, and can only advance and retreat with the large forces.

"Why didn't you rob the Hexi Carriage Team first?" Ning Chan'er pouted and said nonchalantly, "As long as the Lord Yuecheng is caught, even if the news cannot be blocked, as long as the Lord Xiqiang wants to work hard with If the Dongs’ alliance wants to maintain the dignity of the Pinglu royal family, they will inevitably send troops to rescue. How to fight, where to fight, and perhaps whether to fight, is not up to us?"

"The master's words are also reasonable, why didn't those elm bumps come to mind?" Fan Dachun patted his head and said, "I'll go to Master Kong and they talk about it."

"It's not bad today tonight," Chen Haihun said indifferently, "Let them quarrel first, and it won't be too late to talk about it tomorrow."

Ning Chan'er guessed that Chen Hai wanted to buy Dong Ning and the others one more night, but he glanced horizontally at him and didn't break it.
