Chapter 36: There Are Horse Bandits

With Guo Qizuo's wisdom, he had long thought of this. However, he was influenced by Wu Dao, and his thoughts were automatically eliminated as soon as they appeared, because Guo Qizuo was also a Han Chinese, and he also had passionate and nationalist feelings. The history of the North is the history of humiliation of countless Han Chinese people, and the history of blood and tears trampled through the Hu people with scimitars and iron hooves. No matter any passionate Han Chinese with a bit of nationalist feelings, he was not willing to act rashly in the face of the Hu people, and he was no exception.

However, he had to admit that what Yuchi Jin said was the truth that her thoughts were the way to conquer her.

Recognizing the flaws in the strategy, Guo Qizuo was a wise man. He would correct any mistakes and immediately sent someone to notify Zhu Li. However, Yuchi Jin stopped him, and she happened to ask Zhu Li for a clear understanding and could bring the news over.

This situation is something that Guo Qizuo likes. In his heart, this young lady has long been a mistress. She is smart, wise, literary and martial, and has helped Zhu Li so much. I am afraid that not only him, but also under Zhu Li, almost all of them have recognized the existence of Yuchi Jin. No one dares to ignore her suggestions.

The two of them talked about other topics, and it was time for Zhu Ning'er to finish the class. Yuchi Jin went to see the little girl and played with her for a while. After the little girl was tired, she took care of her and took a break. Yuchi Jin led Xie Tian and Xie Di to chase Zhu Li northward.

----Separation line----

The battle took place at dawn. Zhu Li and Zhou Dewei took their men and everyone covered their black scarf and rushed into the Khitan camp. In an instant, the fire surged into the sky, and the people shouted and neighed. The Yueqi of Shuozhou seemed to have turned into a horse bandit. When they saw the adult man in the Khitan, they would kill him. If the other party surrendered, they would temporarily put it aside and planned to deal with it together in the end.

At dawn, most people were still sleeping. The Khitans were suddenly attacked. The hasty counterattack was very weak and Zhu Li didn't need to take action. The Yueqi led by Zhou Dewei killed them so hard that they were urinating and limbs flew.

The sound of crying, sobbing in the dark night before dawn, sobbing and helpless; the howling before death cut through the dark sky, appearing distant and shrill; there are also mixed with angry struggles and the clanging sounds of wars fighting.

After hearing this and witnessing everything, Zhu Li suddenly felt that she was committing a sin for a moment.

However, he came from later generations. Looking back at the records of the Five Dynasties when the Khitans went south, countless people in the Central Plains were slaughtered at will, countless women from good families were humiliated by them, and countless families were destroyed, he instantly strengthened his determination.

He also thought of Shi Jingtang, a native of Shatuo, who exchanged himself for a son emperor with the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, a Han Dynasty. This was a naked humiliation, a humiliation of history, and a humiliation of the nation. The last bit of unbearance in his heart was instantly let go.

In today's era, eunuchs have gained power, cliques, warlords have divided their power, worshiping Buddha has become a trend, and the upper and lower effects are in chaos. Who has ever thought of the people of the world, and who has ever thought of national justice? Since people in this era can't think of it, let him, a person from later generations do it.

The raid progressed very quickly, and it was launched before dawn. The tribe of only 2,000 people quickly calmed down under the sweep of more than 4,000 Yueqi.

Zhou Dewei came to Zhu Li and bowed, "Captain..., leader, we wiped out more than 400 Khitan warriors in total, captured more than 200 Khitan women over fifteen years old and under thirty-five years old, and more than 300 Han slaves, including more than 100 male slaves, more than 200 female slaves, and the rest were all Khitan old and weak.



Zhou Dewei looked at Zhu Li's still indifferent expression and continued: "About 400 kilograms of gold and jewelry, nearly 20,000 cattle and sheep, more than 5,000 horses, animal skins, animal bones, and more than 50,000 stones of food and grass."

"Okay, those surrendered Khitan warriors will deal with it on the spot." Zhu Li glanced at him and ordered coldly, "Also, I will give you orders immediately and take them to Bitouzhai immediately."

"No" Zhou Dewei hesitated for a moment, as if he wanted to say something but stopped, but in the end he said nothing and immediately responded to his order.

"Slow" At this moment, three flying cavalry suddenly rushed over in the dark, one of them was the red horse and silver helmet, with a look of Song Yu, and a whip and a knife. It was Yuchi Jin.

Zhu Li glanced at the other party in surprise, not understanding why she ran here, so she drove forward and said with a little complaining: "Why are you here?"

"Why can't I come? If I don't come, you won't go to Fanyang? Did you forget the gangster... friend?" Yuchi Jin was so aggressive that he made Zhu Li look puzzled and confused.

Looking at the other party's appearance of a monk who was confused, Yuchi Jin rode a horse and moved closer, stretched out his jade hand and handed a letter, saying, "This is what Mr. Guo asked me to pass it to you, please read it yourself."

"Um" Zhu Li took the letter blankly and looked at it. He immediately realized that Guo Qizuo asked him to deal with the surrendered Khitan warriors according to the situation. If they could take it to him, they would take it to him. Although it was a bit different from their original discussion, Zhu Li's trust in Guo Qizuo did not question at all, and said to Zhou Dewei casually: "Those Khitan warriors will also be taken to Bitootouzhai together. Let's see if they can be conquered."

"No" Zhou Dewei responded immediately when he heard this, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He had thought of it since ancient times, but he knew that he had just arrived under Zhu Li's command and could not fully gain the trust of the other party. Even if he said it, it would be useless. Now Zhu Li has changed his mind, which is the best result.

The army retreated and took advantage of the darkness that had not yet dissipated before dawn to head towards the inner guard.

Zhu Li took a lot of effort to find out the reason why Yuchi Jin was angry from thanksgivingly. Then he quickly rode his horse and followed Yuchi Jin, and explained softly: "It's not that I won't go see you, I'm a soldier, and I must implement it under the orders. I hope you can understand this."

"Hmph, you can go to Fanyang for excuses. Can Mr. Li still execute you?" Yuchi Jin was still angry, but without waiting for Zhu Li to explain, another horse rushed out in the dark. This was a scout. When the man saw Zhu Li, he immediately jumped off his horse and bowed to report: "Chief, a large number of people appeared in front of us, and came straight towards us."

Zhu Li was stunned when she heard this, and immediately stopped explaining to Yuchi Jin, and asked with a solemn look: "Who are they? Have you used the banner?"

"No, but it looks like a horse bandit." The scout thought for a moment and replied immediately.

"Ma Bandit?" Hearing these two words, Zhu Li, Zhou Dewei, Yuchi Jin and others looked strange. They dressed up as horse bandits and came out to rob the Khitans, but they did not expect that they would encounter real horse bandits on the way back. God would not bring this to play.

"How many of them are there?" Zhu Li was a little helpless.

"About five or six thousand people." The scout responded quickly.

"Okay, Dewei, you go and dispatch more than a thousand cavalry and follow me to see. I want to see who these people are." Zhu Li ordered Zhou Dewei next to him without looking back.

"No" Zhou Dewei agreed to the promise.

In a moment, Zhu Li, Zhou Dewei, Yuchi Jin, Xie Tian, ​​and Xie Di led more than a thousand Yue cavalry toward the direction of the horse bandits.

This is near Yinshan, so it is not uncommon for horse bandits to appear. Thousands of people rushed into the mountains. No matter who wants to destroy them, tens of thousands of troops will not be able to achieve success.

On the way back to the south, a group of horse bandits riding horses and holding swords came. If they only look at their situation, they would not be like horse bandits. They were obliged to be banned and looked like soldiers. Even if they were compared with regular Yueqi, they were probably just standard armor. Moreover, they were all brave and full of the breath of a mad python.

The three leaders also had black scarves and masked, but they looked similar to Zhu Li and the others. Two of them were carrying long spears in their hands and were extremely majestic. The third one, with a long sword on their waists, seemed to have a gentle and elegant style, and they should not be generals.

When the bandits were about 100 meters away from the crowd, they stopped and stopped.

"Walk with me?" The person in front of him was extremely burly. Seeing Zhu Li and others' outfits, he spoke suspiciously and asked a clear and clear question.

Zhu Li glanced at them and said aloud: "Yes, I've been robbed once and am about to go back. I hope you all can let us go."

"Hahaha, I'm outside the pass, and it's rare to meet my colleagues, but don't worry, the thief also says, we still disdain to do this kind of thing like black and black, but why haven't you seen you before, the first time?" The bandit leader was obviously very interested in Zhu Li and the others, and did not mean to get out of the way. Instead, he asked endlessly like a goblin.

"So what, big man, do you give up this path or not?" Before Zhu Li could speak, Xie Tian shouted at the other party in a muffled voice.

The man glanced at Xie Tian and found that this man was as strong as a bear, holding a giant axe in each hand. The weight, roughly estimated, was 50 to 60 kilograms per handle, and two handles were at least 120 kilograms. At first glance, he was a powerful general.

Looking at Xie Di next to Xie Tian, ​​he also held a giant hammer in his hands, and the weight was probably not lower than the former; as for the other three, one was holding a knife and a spear, one was holding a whip and a knife, and the other was as thick as a tiger, and the weapon in his hand was also two sledgehammers. The weight was probably even heavier than the axe general who spoke, and it seemed even more difficult to deal with. (Zhou Dewei was a hammer general, but clues were found in "The Legend of Zhou Dewei".)

"Hahaha, brother, don't be anxious. You will definitely give in. But I am very interested in your skills. You might as well discuss it. How about it?" The leader, when he heard Xie Tian's angry scolding, he still did not get angry, but instead spoke with a smile.

"Big man, if you want to fight, your brother will accompany you." Xie Tian shouted, and rode his horse out, swung the giant axe in his hand, and headed towards the bandit leader.

"Hehe, you may be good at it, but your opponent is not me, the second brother, I'll leave this to you." The leader Ma bandit took the long spear in his hand, and just tweeted it lightly. With a "default", he lifted Xie Tian's rapid slash and shouted to the other person behind him without looking back.

With good skills, the bandit leader was just a group, and Zhu Li and the others could see that the other party was not simple. This man was at least a first-class military general level.

"Okay" A man rushed out of the bandits immediately. It was another bandit with a spear. He swung his long spear and rushed towards Xie Tian.
