Chapter 29: Affected Tribes

Wang Erlang rode on the horse, closed his eyes slightly, swayed his body, and hummed a little tune, which was very comfortable. Many of Dangxiang's official positions were borrowed from the Song Dynasty, and only used a name. Wang Erlang said that he was the signing of the military supervisory department, but in fact he was very different from the signing of the Song Dynasty. The signing of a state in the Song Dynasty was the leader of the officials of the court. In addition to the two chief officials of the prefect and the Tongzong, he was in charge of the military and political affairs of the state. Dangxiang's signing of a state was good under the same verdict, but there were no official below.

In other words, these small officials were also called official names from the Song Dynasty, and important officials in the court had long been changed to Dangxiang's name. Because Yuan Hao rebelled against the Song Dynasty, he set up the official system himself, and many of the names were copied from the Song Dynasty. The two countries negotiated peace, and the Song Dynasty did not allow Dangxiang to use the official names of the Song Dynasty, so they translated the names into Dangxiang text and then translated them into Chinese, and the envoys were accepted by the Song Dynasty.

Wang Erlang was a slave of Wei Minglangbu, the minister in the court. He got this official position because of his rough writing. Now that the prime minister is in power, Wei Minglangbu, the ministers who were guarding Yuan Hao lost their power, and Wang Erlang had no future. He was an optimistic person. As long as he had a salary and couldn't be hungry, he would be a small official. Anyway, the officials above did whatever they asked him to do, and they never caused trouble, and they were happy to be free.

The two Si Zheng didn't know what crazy they were doing. These days, they always thought that the Song people would come to attack the Heishan Military Supervisors and asked Wang Erlang to go out for inspection. Wang Erlang left Wushuhai City, brought a few followers, and came all the way to Heishan. He looked at several military cities along the way, asked the herdsmen for some information, and went back to report the job. The Song people had just killed the Khitan Emperor and made enemies with the Khitan. How could they come to attack Dangxiang? Those people really didn't know what medicine they had taken wrong.

At this moment, a follower suddenly whispered: "Sir, look over there, a few cavalry flew over, as if they were the costumes of Song Army!"

Wang Erlang opened his eyes and said, "What are you talking nonsense? Isn't it a dazed!"

Looking up, I saw seven or eight fast horses running all the way towards me. The red military uniform on my body was a little dazzling in the sun.

Wang Erlang was shocked and hurriedly said, "Come on, come forward and ask, what are these people coming? Tell them that this is the territory of Xia Kingdom and they have crossed the border! Let them leave in time, so I won't pursue this matter!"

The personal soldiers agreed in panic. Before they could step forward, the Song cavalry had arrived.

Seeing a few guns pointing at him, Wang Erlang looked at the person who looked like an officer in front of him with no idea what it was. His entourage was not war soldiers, nor was he a commander, nor a warrior.

Miao Chenglin looked at Wang Erlang, then looked at his followers, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you? Where are you going?"

Wang Erlang calmed down and said loudly: "I am the verdict of the Heishan Military Supervisor Department of Xia State, named Wang Erlang. He was ordered by Shangguan to patrol all over the place. Who are you? Look at your outfit, you should be the Song army, why did you enter my Xia State? This is Xia State, under the jurisdiction of the Heishan Military Supervisor Department of Heishan Military Supervisor, if you walk on the road, then leave quickly, I won't pursue it!"

Miao Chenglin laughed at the ear: "Grandpa is a subordinate of Du Jinglei on Hequ Road. He is ordered by the peak to get the land here. Since you meet me, please go back and ask me! Grandpa is here for war, and I am afraid you will pursue it!"

After saying that, he urged Wang Erlang to his armpit and said to the rest: "Take these guys back together!"

Wang Erlang fluttered his hands and feet hard, and said, "What's the reason? The two countries have already negotiated peace, how can you suddenly shout for fighting and killing!"

Miao Chenglin smiled and said, "What kind of peace is discussed? In the past two years, you have invaded the territory of the Song Dynasty and lured the population of this dynasty. Is it like peace talks? If you hadn't suddenly rebelled and killed the imperial officials, where would the Xia Kingdom come from?"

While speaking, he greeted several subordinates, robbed Wang Erlang's entourage and whizzed away.

Wang Erlang only felt that the land around him was retreating, and he was facing down, and he vomited out in a short while. He secretly said in his heart that he was unlucky. The two Si Zhengzheng had to check if the Song army was attacking. Well, he became a prisoner first. He knew that they were coming, but he couldn't speak back.

A group of herders were rushing cattle and sheep to move to the new pasture. Following the sound of horse hooves, they saw a large number of Song cavalry rushing towards them from the bottom of the southern mountain. Before they could react, they were turned around.

The team general Cheng Yuntian dismounted and said to the person who looked like a leader: "I am Cheng Yuntian, the general of the Song army, and you are the leader of our division?"

The man shook his hand, pointed to his mouth, then his ear, and shook his head repeatedly.

The general translator Tian Zhuang around him said: "General, this person can't speak Chinese and cannot understand what the general says."

Cheng Yuntian said: "Go and tell him, let the leaders of this tribe come out and read the quotation of the Scripture Department for them! Also, we will search their belongings, confiscate military weapons, and take them away with them with strong horses!"

Tian Zhuang followed the order and came to the man and said in Dangxiang for a while. The man just shook his head, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

After a while, Tian Zhuang came to Cheng Yuntian and said, "General, that man said he was the leader, but he refused to hand over the horses and military weapons. I had the final say for him to sell them to the court. In the future, he could go to the yamen to collect money based on the list, but he just refused."

Cheng Yuntian sneered: "Then tell him that if we cooperate with us to hand over it, we can still get money in the future. If we refuse, we have to do it ourselves, and there will be no list or document. How to choose, as they wish!"

The team deputy on the side heard this and whispered: "General, is it appropriate not to give a list or document?"

Cheng Yuntian said: "This is the military order of the General Secretary. If a tribe refuses to obey the military order, it will be considered an enemy, and the horses and weapons will be considered captured!"

The team deputy nodded after hearing this and did not say anything. Cheng Yuntian said that there was a military order, of course, it was a military order, and he did not have the courage to fabricate it. Think about it, why were these Dangxiang tribes so obedient when facing the Song army? Since they were unwilling to discuss, they had to use force, which was originally military resources.

Tian Zhuang arrived in front of the leader and said for a while, but the leader just refused.

Cheng Yuntian lost his patience and whispered: "Look at these herdsmen and search them one by one! If you find military weapons, don't be polite. In addition to the horses, bring a few fat sheep back, and everyone will have a full meal tonight!"

The soldiers said that they had promised and took the occupants separately, with women and children gathering on one side, and Ding Zhuang on the other side.

Cheng Yuntian looked at the leader and said in a deep voice: "I don't care whether you really understand Chinese or pretend you can't understand Chinese. Just listen to me, don't resist unnecessary resistance! Otherwise, grandpa would not recognize anyone in his hand!"

After saying that, he directed his soldiers to search each car and one by one.

After searching for five or six cars, a middle-aged man in Dangxiang rushed out and shouted loudly. The guards pulled out their swords, chopped him to the ground, and kicked him to the side. The smell of blood spread and the atmosphere became tense.

Cheng Yuntian looked at the man on the ground and waved coldly: "Don't worry about this, continue searching!"

The next car overturned the tent, and a pair of armor was exposed inside, with arrows next to it.

The soldiers who were searching quickly took them to Cheng Yuntian and said, "General, there are military weapons in this car!"

Cheng Yuntian ordered to put it away, walked to the encircled Dangxiang Dingzhuang and sternly said: "Which one is the regular soldier? Stand out!"

Tian Zhuang hurried forward, translated Cheng Yuntian's words into Dangxiang words, and said it to everyone.

Seeing that everyone was not talking, Cheng Yuntian sneered: "If you don't say it, it's going to go against the court! It's okay, take away the military weapons, take away a few sheep, and give the other brothers a tooth sacrifice! Also, shave off one head and make the yin and yang heads, so that the other troops will know this tribe. Explain to you, anyone who shaves half of his hair, as long as he doesn't cooperate with the court, will be regarded as an enemy army and will be killed without mercy! The polite heart is kind, and he will not kill too many lives. He will be punished without any advice. It is not done by the royal army. Shaving half of your head is to let you know that those who help the party and Xiang army are no longer regarded as the people!"

Tian Zhuang translated Cheng Yuntian's words, but when he saw that no one stood up, he couldn't help but shake his head. The search for military weapons means that there were regular soldiers in this tribe, but they were not just ordered. No one claimed them, and the entire tribe was regarded as an enemy and there was no preferential treatment.

Dangxiang may have his own system. At this time, there will be any punishment for betraying the soldiers. The whole clan conceals him, so the tribe can only pay the price to protect his life. Cheng Yuntian doesn’t have much time, so it is impossible for him to waste too much energy here.

Dangxiang's car is small and has a large wheel and a small belly, which is conducive to crossing mountains and rivers, but the car cannot hold much cargo. In a short while, the search and pick it up.

A pair of armor, a bow, more than twenty arrows, and a steel knife were just the equipment of a Dangxiang Zhengshang. After checking the horses, he found a war horse with Dangxiang official seal and two camels with official seals.

Cheng Yuntian saw it and specifically ordered people to bring the war horses and camels, and put all the armor and weapons on them.

Putting all the strong horses together, Cheng Yuntian said to the soldiers: "Go to the flock, pick the fat sheep, slaughter and take it back for military rations! - Remember to slaughter a few more, especially the fat ewes and the cows there, slaughter them all!"

When the Song army came to the flock of sheep, they picked up good-looking ewes and put them over one by one, the Dangxiang people there became a stir.

Ewes and cows are the most important property of nomadic tribes. Especially in this season, when grass comes, ewes and cows have to give birth to cubs, and people also have to sue sheep's milk, which is covered with breast milk. There has been no farming around, and where can they find food without dairy products?

If the military equipment was not searched, the official horses and camels were found, the Song army would just take away bows, arrows, swords and guns, and take away horses. If the attitude was good, they would also give a list of characters and compensate in the future. If the equipment of the army was found, no one claimed it, the nature would be completely different and regarded as the enemy. These cattle and sheep were all the enemy's supplies and were counted as captured. If it were not for inconvenient to carry, Cheng Yuntian would have taken them all away.

A regular soldier has three or five auxiliary soldiers. This small tribe, Ding Zhuang, is almost all the Dangxiang army sequences, not ordinary people.
