Chapter 419 Let the Tubo people open the way for us

After lunch, everyone immediately cleaned up and continued on their way.

But before he could walk, the scout in front rushed over to report the message.

"Brother Zhang...Brother Zhang, a team of Tubo soldiers appeared in front of him. They are now heading towards us. The number is about one hundred, most of them are cavalry."

Since Zhang Yi, Yue Shiyi and others were riding horses in front, the scout rushed back from the front and reported to Zhang Yi first.

Li Yan said in a deep voice: "Most of the one hundred people are cavalry. Such troops are definitely elite in the Tubo army."

Although Tubo has many horse farms and their number of cavalry is also quite large, the elite level of the army at this time depends on how many war horses this team has. The teams that have been out to sweep can have such a high proportion of cavalry, so this unit must be an elite unit.

Moreover, it is very likely that, not only this Tubo army is located nearby, but what is even more terrifying is that there are also a large number of Tubo troops nearby.

If they really meet them, they will be unfavorable. However, if they look back now, they will still be able to hurry up. After all, there are not many of these goods, and dozens of trucks of salt are used to drive them back harder and they can go back intact.

Zhang Yi frowned, but he had no intention of walking back.

"Everyone rest on the spot, pull the salt truck to the back of the hillside and hide it. Wang Wu, take a few people with me to take a look."

Wang Wu soon followed Zhang Yiyue and Eleven.

In fact, Zhang Yi, a mere 100 Tubo cavalry, was not afraid. The people he brought were all warriors, and he could definitely defeat this team of Tubo soldiers. Moreover, he personally had protection for the eleventh day of the month, and his safety was also guaranteed.

What he was afraid of was that if there were other Tubo troops around, that would be the most troublesome.

And if I have a conflict with this team of Tubo soldiers, even if I can defeat them, I still have to go to Qingtang to do business with the Tubo people. By then, will the Tubo people arrest themselves directly?

But no matter what, let’s take a look first. If the Tubo people insist on having a conflict with them, they would have to kill them. After all, this is the territory of the Tang Dynasty!

The seven or eight cavalry quietly touched a small hill. A few miles away, a team of Tubo cavalry was slowly walking towards the direction of Zhang Yi's caravan.

"Looking at their appearance, they must have robbed them. Everyone's pockets are almost full of things, otherwise they wouldn't be so slow."

Li Yan also came with Zhang Yi, and he was still quite responsible. Although it was dangerous to follow Zhang Yi to investigate the situation, he knew the most here, so he naturally followed him regardless of the danger.

"That means, these cavalry will most likely not go any further and will go back?"

Zhang Yi tentatively asked Li Yan, if this was the case, they wouldn't have to worry so much.

"Theory is this. Generally, they will get a certain amount of things to return after they get back. Although we don't know how much things they have hit now, here they have already penetrated into the hundreds of miles of my Tang Dynasty. I don't think they dare to go further."

When Zhang Yi heard Li Yan's words, he felt a little inexplicably heartbroken.

"A team of Tubo soldiers dared to penetrate the 100-mile realm of our Tang Dynasty so casually, and even as if we were in a nobody's realm. Sooner or later, we will have to wash away such a shame!"

Zhang Yi said fiercely, China, the great country of the Heavenly Kingdom, could not tolerate these four barbarians riding on his head? This time, he would use economic war to defeat the Tubo economy, and then combine the Tang Dynasty's military attack to remove these hateful Tubo people.

Li Yan and others felt the anger on Zhang Yi and looked at him in surprise.

"Don't worry, although we have to take risks to do business with the Tubo people now, in the near future, we will be able to stand in front of them as a strong man. Then they will drive cattle and sheep into my Tang Dynasty to trade with us."

Zhang Yi said that, signaling Li Yanyue, Shiyi and others to slowly retreat.

He had basically mastered the required information, and it was time to go back and notify the caravan. After all, the Tubo people are now cavalry, and their caravans still have to transport goods, so they must not be as good as theirs, so they have to make plans first.

After returning to the caravan, Zhang Yi directly asked everyone to return the same way, but it didn't take too fast. At the same time, he also asked the scouts to pay attention to the movements of the Tubo people at all times. As soon as they change direction, Zhang Yi would immediately ask the caravan to change direction and follow.

That's right, Zhang Yi planned to let this team of Tubo soldiers come and open the way for him and follow them to Qingtang.

Following these Tubo people, you don’t have to worry about encountering bandits or bandits along the way, as it is easier to avoid trouble.

The caravan turned around and began to walk back, but before they could walk ten miles away, the team of Tubo soldiers turned around and returned.

"The scouts follow them immediately, and the caravan will speed up. Follow them as soon as possible, don't get too far away from them. In addition, Wang Wu, please send some people around to inquire and see if there are any other Tubo troops around!"

While Zhang Yi said, he urged the caravan to turn the direction as soon as possible and chase the Tubo soldiers.

The team of Tubo soldiers just now walked slowly. Of course, they did not have any pressure, but now the return journey will definitely not be so slow. If they still want to continue to follow them, they have to keep up with others' pace.

The scouts began to scatter and investigate. The caravan was also very fast. The caravan was pulling salt, but each caravan didn't pull much salt, and the road was smooth. Their degree was not too slow, so they could barely keep up with the Tubo soldiers returning ahead.

Wang Wu had sent scouts to investigate the surrounding area, and Zhang Yi didn't have to worry about being attacked by those Tubo people now.

Now, they only need to follow this team of Tubo soldiers to Qingtang. Let’s talk about the rest of the matter when they arrive in Qingtang.

Li Yan also knew very well that they might not have any big problems along the way. It would be even better if they could arrive at Qingtang tonight.

However, after rushing to Qingtang, it was time for him to perform.

From the conversation with Zhang Yi, Li Yan knew very well that their purpose this time was not just to sell these goods and exchange them for war horses.

They also want to establish their own trading channels and find partners in Qingtang who can cooperate with them for a long time.
