Turbulent Times Chapter 58: Five Horses Divided Corpse

More than a hundred miles away from the Great Sui Mission, a caravan with two or three hundred people also stopped when it was raining heavily, but they did not set up a tent, because they had enough carriages to cover the goods on the truck. After the sheepskins were put on, everyone got under the car to take shelter from the rain.

In the only carriage carrying people in the caravan, Wang Junlin sat cross-legged in it, practicing.

Following the training chart given by Changkuzi, combined with the writing on the animal skin, it took him two days to finally cultivate a trace of the so-called internal energy. When not cultivating, this trace of inner qi stays quietly in the sea of ​​qi where the dantian is. And as long as he starts to practice, this trace of internal energy will run along the various meridians according to the route of the exercise method. It takes ten breaths of time to return to the sea of ​​​​qi every time he runs a circle, and each time he can increase this trace of internal energy a little , although the increase is very small, but the accumulation of little, as long as you practice this trace of internal energy, it will grow little by little.

After cultivating this trace of internal energy, Wang Junlin discovered a new problem. He only knew how to cultivate, but he didn't know how to use this trace of internal energy. Now that I think about it, it must be Zhang Kuzi's intention. However, as this trace of internal energy continued to grow, Wang Junlin could feel that his spirit and physical body were also beginning to strengthen unconsciously, as if this trace of internal energy itself had a tempering effect on the physical body. This is also the reason why Wang Junlin has been cultivating day and night for the past two days.

Wang Junlin's caravan left the Hurunubi tribe not long after Hurunubi led troops to fight, and naturally wanted to return to Gaotai City. However, the speed was much slower than that of the Sui Mission because it carried nearly a hundred cattle, sheepskins, some other animal skins, and some herbs exchanged with the Turks.

What Wang Junlin didn't notice was that there was a ghost-like figure following their caravan from afar.

…

…

There is a messy scene on the grassland. After the heavy rain, the spring is brilliant, but the sun has no warmth at all. At least when it shines on the **** battlefield, it will only make people chill. The three major Western Turkic powers have been completely red-eyed, and it has lasted for two days.

Tong Yehu can be called Khan because he has the most troops under his command. Even if he dispatched 200,000 troops, there are still 50,000 left behind. Led an army of 40,000 to attack the Kurunubi tribe with only 10,000 soldiers left behind. Fortunately, the Kurunubi tribe sent a large number of rangers. Cattle, sheep and household belongings began to be transferred under the **** of 10,000 cavalry.

Kurunubi, who was leading the main army to kill the enemy, was shocked when he heard the news, and hurriedly dispatched 30,000 troops to rescue them. Fortunately, the battlefield is located in the Ashina tribe. Although their tribe suffered heavy losses at the beginning, as time went by, the advantage of the home field became apparent, so they were not afraid of defeat for a while, and the main battlefield was in a stalemate for a while.

On the contrary, whether King Bo Duo can catch up with the old, young, women and children of the Kurunubi tribe before the 30,000 Kurunubi army returns to help them becomes the key to this battle. If they catch up, they will naturally wipe out the rear of the Hulu Nubi tribe, the Hulu Nubi will lose their foundation, and their relatives will be killed in the rear of the soldiers. The morale and morale of the army will be greatly affected, thus affecting the outcome of the main battlefield.

On the fifth day, King Podo led an army of 40,000 men and finally caught up with hundreds of thousands of women, children, and children of the Hurunubi tribe. Ten thousand escorted cavalry desperately intercepted them. The reinforcements sent finally came and joined the 10% of the cavalry escorting the women and children. They were able to defeat the soldiers and horses of King Boduofa. This day was a hard fight, and the two sides were evenly divided. It was not until dark that King Boduofa gave the order The troops retreated.

On the grass, there were corpses scattered everywhere, blood splattered, and occasionally there was a groan among the scattered corpses. If it is the opponent's person, as long as there is still a breath, he will make up for it.

On the **** far away, women and children of the Hulu Nubi tribe hurriedly set up a camp. There was chaos in the camp. Before that, more than a thousand cavalry led by King Bodo rushed here, causing great harm to these women and children. Big casualties.

"Where is Master Suo Daji?" Chief Wan Fu, who was in charge of protecting the herdsmen from retreating, originally wanted to ask Master Suo Daji to perform a ritual ceremony for the warriors who died in battle, but suddenly found that Master Suo Daji was missing.

"When we ran away just now, the scene was very chaotic. Master Suo Daji ran away from us. We don't know where the master ran to." A Kurunubi nobleman said quickly.

"I remembered, before the enemy army caught up with us, Master Sodaji went out to find a place to go out. Akez led fifty people to **** Master Sodaji out of the brigade, and then followed the enemy army Then they chased after them, and everyone was only focused on running forward and forgot about Master Suo Daji." Another Khurunubi nobleman said immediately.

"Come here, gather 3,000 people and scatter out on horseback to look for Master Suo Daji." Chief Wan's face was extremely ugly.

…

…

On a Gobi Desert, Wang Junlin's caravan looked at the billowing dust behind. Although Deng Yuzhuo who led the team was a businessman, the leader of the caravan guard, Yu Bao, was killed in the wounded and sick camp in Gaotai City years ago. One of the three centurions rescued by Wang Junlin was rich in experience, so he immediately judged that it was a group of cavalry, and the number should be about a thousand. He quickly ordered all the carriages and camels to be driven to both sides of the flat road, so as not to Block the other party's way and cause unnecessary trouble.

The sound of exclamation and yelling at the beast was too loud outside, coupled with the bumping of the carriage, it woke up Wang Junlin who was practicing in the carriage. He had to open his eyes, and Deng Yuzhuo came to the window of the carriage in time, Said: "My lord, there are two teams of Turkic cavalry, one in front and the other in the direction of our direction. There are only about fifty people in the front group, and there are more than a thousand people in the back."

Wang Junlin opened the curtain and glanced back. He frowned and said, "What would happen to your caravans in the past?"

Deng Yuzhuo said: "Don't worry, my lord, this is still the sphere of influence of the Western Turks. As long as they don't encounter robbers, no one will move the caravan from the Sui Dynasty."

Wang Junlin felt relieved, but after thinking about it for a while, he said, "It's better to be careful, let everyone be vigilant in secret, and if something happens, we will spend money to eliminate the disaster."

Deng Yuzhuo said respectfully.

When more than two hundred steps away from the caravan, Wang Junlin finally saw clearly that the one running ahead was a group of Turkic cavalry escorting a fat monk. Master Ji, Wang Junlin found out that this monk's riding skills are quite good, but his body is too fat, which is completely equivalent to the weight of two Turkic cavalrymen. Although the horse he is riding is obviously extraordinary, it seems that at this time Started to affect the speed.

He was also unlucky. When he left the Kurunubi Women and Children Brigade to find a place to go out, King Podo led people to catch up. They broke away from the big team and hid on a hillside next to the battlefield. Seeing that their own side was at a disadvantage, the guards rushed forward with enthusiasm, so they couldn't help but shoot a dark arrow at a soldier on Bo Duo Fawang's side, which exposed them and had to run away, but the run to the large team was cut off, so they had no choice but to go Run in other directions.

In the beginning, Dharma King Boduo sent nearly a hundred people to chase them down. As a result, the scarlet cassock on Master Suo Daji’s body was too bright. The news was reported to Dharma King Boduo. The power was completely handed over to a ten thousand captain, who personally led a thousand cavalry to chase and kill Master Suo Daji, chasing and fleeing along the way, but it happened that Wang Junlin's caravan caught up with him.

Master Suo Daji's party of more than 50 people was finally chased up when they were more than a hundred steps away from the caravan. At this time, they finally couldn't hold on anymore, and couldn't keep up with the speed of the other guard cavalry, so the other cavalry had to slow down too, and King Podofa caught up.

From the first scream to the killing of the last guard around Master Suo Daji, it lasted only about ten breaths. Only Master Suo Daji was left alone and was surrounded by the cavalry regiment led by King Podo.

I have to say that this master Suo Daji still has the demeanor of an eminent monk. He sat cross-legged on the ground as early as seeing that it was difficult to escape. Although there was despair on his face, he never panicked at all. I don't know what to say in my mouth with my eyes closed.

Wang Junlin saw Boduofa King laughing wildly from a distance, and he didn't know what he said. Five cavalry dismounted, and one of them went up and kicked Master Suo Daji down. The other cavalry found ropes and tied one end firmly On Suo Daji's limbs and neck, in the cruel laughter of King Boduo, the five knights began to gallop their horses in five directions, and then began to accelerate.

At the moment when Wang Junlin's pupils contracted, many people in the nearby caravan exclaimed. At the same time, Suo Daji's body was divided into five parts. From the beginning to the end, this fat monk like a pig did not utter a single exclamation. Or screaming, let alone begging for mercy.

Wang Junlin had heard of the cruel punishment of "dividing the body by five horses" in later generations, and even watched it in TV dramas, but seeing it with his own eyes now shocked him a lot.

Wang Junlin didn't have time to think about it, because King Boduo led a thousand cavalry towards them. Just as Deng Yuzhuo said, the Turkic cavalry had no intention of robbing them.

But a Turkic general suddenly pointed at Wang Junlin's carriage, and then a group of cavalry came towards them.
