Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the early morning, even when the sky was still dark, a large number of horses and ox carts set off from the Barrow tribe and headed straight to the Ussuri River in the northwest.

    You should know that although the distance between the two is only about fifty miles, the difficulty of the journey is beyond our imagination.

    Because now is the snow melting time, there is not even a complete road here. Not to mention the mud, there are also potholes everywhere. If you are not careful, your horse will get stuck in them. After only ten miles, more than 20 horses have been broken.  horse.

    Although most of the horses only had their legs broken, in such an environment, breaking a leg meant that they could no longer walk, and it was impossible for anyone to take care of them, so the horses could only be killed by the warriors of the Barrow tribe.  Large pieces of horse meat were placed in the car, ready for lunch and dinner.

    Fortunately, the Baro tribe has many horses. If we were on Ezo Island, Yamazaki Kenun would have to fight for me.

    Only then did I understand why Jia Ba and the others suggested that we use an ox cart. Although the strong ox walks slowly, it has a steady pace and solid feet. It will not break its legs immediately if it falls into a mud pit. After helping to pull it out, it can still  Keep moving forward.

    However, at this rate, the speed was very slow, which made Xiao Yin'er, who was anxious, slap the horse's butt several times, feeling resentful.

    Seeing her anxiety, I thought for a moment and told Elder Cheli to prepare two horses for more than 500 of us. Under the leadership of experienced Jurchen warriors, we took a shortcut and left first.

    ¡° Anyway, we gave refined salt, spices, ¡°golden tea¡± and fine wine as compensation, and Elder Cheli was hoping that we would lose more - anyway, the Barrow tribe has many horses.  After Brother Bao loses something, the horse will not take it away. The broken horse can also transport some things over a short distance. In a few years, it can be slaughtered and eaten when it is old. There is no waste at all.

    In the summer, the Ussuri River still has a lot of fish resources, and there are also many people from the Barrow tribe who come back from fishing for some fish resources, so you can't go wrong on the road.

    As for Cha Zhalie, he was in a daze when he escaped.  Naturally, he didn¡¯t know the way and could only follow us.

    After leaving the ox convoy, our speed accelerated a lot. The forty-mile journey only took two hours. Even if we lost hundreds of horses, it was very worthwhile.

    "arrive!"

    Several warriors from the Barrow tribe pointed to a small river that was melting in the distance. "This is the Ussuri River. By next month, it will completely thaw, and thousands of fish will be swimming in the river."  It¡¯s very spectacular.¡±

    "Two or three miles ahead is our camp!" When he got here, Chazhalie also saw some things he was familiar with. He pointed to the west excitedly, "Quick, it's over here!"

    Xiao Yin'er was also excited when she heard that, and she galloped away quickly after Cha Zha Lie, scaring the Jurchen warriors next to her to follow quickly. Nothing could happen to this aunt.  Otherwise our refined salt, fine wine, and fine tea will be gone!

    I didn¡¯t dare to be careless, so I followed Xiao Yin¡¯er in a flash, and thousands of horses raised up dust and mud again, and then galloped into the distance.

    When we got to the vicinity of the Wusuli River, the road was a bit easier. The two or three miles passed in a blink of an eye, after we climbed over a small slope.  We finally saw the densely packed tents next to a small forest.

    The tent was dilapidated and overcrowded. There were about one or two thousand people walking around. Everyone was busy with something, including cutting down trees and making fires.  There are also people who are clearing the snow.

    "Ahsomeone is coming!"

    "It's a Jurchen barbarian!"

    "Quick! Run into the woods, quick!"

    When they saw us coming, their first reaction was not to be happy, but to be scared out of their wits. They ran into the tent one after another, grabbed their wives and children, and ran away.

    There were also three to five hundred strong men gathered together, holding swords, guns, clubs and other weapons, bravely and tragically blocking the road leading to the tent.

    "kill!"

    They shouted loudly, but it didn't look like they were bravely killing the enemy, but more like they were cheering themselves up.

    "Don't get me wrong, it's me! Cha Zha Lie!" Cha Zha Lie was the first to ride over and ran over, "Han Mu! Xiao Gu! Ming Qieshu Look, who is here?"

    The second person to run away was Xiao Yiner, but this time the Jurchen warriors learned their lesson. About ten people blocked her in front, and a dozen more people surrounded her. They didn't want her to be exposed anyway.

    Even so, due to the terrain, some people could clearly see the whiteness among the knights.

    "It's really Cha Zhalie!"

    "Who is the woman behind? Why is it soDo you know?  "

    "Ahyes"

    "Mother?"

    "Empress!"

    "The empress is here! The empress is here to save us!!"

    "Woooo"

    As Xiao Yin'er used a whip to whip the horses of the Jurchen knights in front, she appeared at the front of the team again. Everyone finally got a clear look. They were all like Cha Zhalie. They knelt down and cried loudly, without any trace of emotion.  The tragic and heroic look of the desperate fight just now was like the expression of an aggrieved child when he saw his mother.

    Listening to them all shouting, some of the Khitan people who were escaping into the woods also looked back and saw Cha Zhalie and Xiao Yin'er getting closer and closer, even stopping in front of the sniper camp.  .

    "It'sMs. Xiao!"

    ¡°The Queen is here~~¡±

    Almost repeating the actions of the people just now, a group of men, women, old and young, except for the children, all ran over crying and rushed towards Xiao Yin'er.

    I frowned and signaled all the Rakshasa guards to stand over and block Xiao Yiner's side.

    Although Cha Zhalie promised that these people would not harm Xiao Yiner, my wife is mine, and I am not willing to leave her safety in the hands of others.

    Everyone rushed towards Xiao Yin'er, and Xiao Yin'er also wanted to get in between them, but the Rakshasa Guard Hatamoto eagerly knocked away everyone who wanted to get close to Xiao Yin'er. For a moment, there was a gap between them.  There was a vacuum.

    The roar of the crowd tended to subside because of seeing such a scary Rakshasa ghost.

    "Get out of the way! Get out of my way!" The cold and beautiful young woman was very impatient and shouted loudly.

    "Young Madam, please pay attention to your safety." The leader of the Rakshasa team said, "Who knows who these people are"

    "Presumptuous!" Xiao Yiner was angry, "They are all my subordinates, my relatives and friends, how can they harm me? Even if they kill me, I will not resent it, just get out of my way! Otherwise I will not be polite  Got it!"

    Seeing what she said, the two team captains could only look at me in embarrassment. I happened to touch Xiao Yin'er's red and swollen eyes. The complex emotions in her eyes made me feel soft. I waved my hand and said,  They backed away, but I stepped forward and followed Xiao Yiner.
