MTL - The Book of Troubled Times-Chapter 258 grassland

  Chapter 258 Grassland

  Until impatiently riding his horse out of the fortress, looking at the military tent looming beyond the horizon in the distance, Zhao Changhe was startled, and quietly detoured for a long journey, at the same time cursing himself as an idiot, he didn't know why he was in a hurry.

  He Lei's death was notified to the world, and Yue Hongling's being on the list is obviously a treat. Since she was not notified, at least it proves that she is alive.

   It seems that he has found the biggest advantage of Book of Chaos besides making troubles and pretending to be coercive: reporting safety...

  Thinking of this, one can draw inferences from one instance to another—if a celebrity like Yue Hongling really fell somewhere, the barbarians would have publicized it long ago. Since there is no one, it can be seen that he was not caught, and the greater probability is that he didn't even encounter danger at all, and he was purely scaring himself.

  The vast grassland is so vast. To the west is the Gobi, to the north is the desert, and across the desert is the grassland. You may not be able to see people for thousands of miles. It is very normal that you cannot contact for a month or two.

   Presumably Cui Yuanyong was also very speechless just now, he was praising your brain for being easy to use, and at the same time he was being stupid.

  No way... Concern leads to chaos, I'm just as anxious if your sister loses contact...

  Anyway, this time to go out, let’s look for news about Yue Hongling while doing the task.

  Zhao Changhe calmed down, quietly rode his horse and detoured slowly, observing the surrounding environment along the way. The inside and outside of this pass, separated by one pass, are directly two worlds, and the impact on people's hearts is also a bit big.

  "The wild people outside Yanmen Pass don't raise silkworms or grow hemp; there are no pear and jujube trees in Baili, so how can you get peach and apricot blossoms in spring?"

   This is the watershed that separates farming and nomadic pastoralism. There are two civilizations separated by a mountain.

No matter how many mountains and mountains I saw in the pass, I didn’t feel poetic. This scene, which seems to be divided by civilization, has a lot of sentences, even with the famous "Don’t teach Huma Duyin Mountain", I didn’t think about it before... Now I see the grassland Seeing the military tent, I suddenly remembered that this is actually the intersection of Yinshan and Taihang, this is Huma going to Yinshan!

  Civilizations are separated and intersected, but time and space are connected here. This feeling is very interesting.

  This is still a war zone, not where his mission is. Zhao Changhe made a big circle and galloped west.

Beihu is a general name, but it is actually a combination of multiple ethnic groups. Although Great Khan Timur is also called king, in the eyes of Zhongtu, the concept is more similar to the leader of the alliance. Even his own clan is subdivided into countless tribes. It's the golden wolf tribe, and there are a lot of other war lions and black wolves, but recently his own tribe is a bit big.

  He Lei is the leader of the War Lion tribe, and when Yue Hongling was on the list, he killed the Black Wolf King, all of whom were strong members of the Timur tribe.

   I don't know if it will cause some thoughts of other ethnic groups. It's hard to say. After all, Timur is the third in the list. The deterrent power for the grassland ethnic groups is no lower than Xia Longyuan's deterrence for the Central Plains forces.

  Who is the second on the list?

  Longevity Tianda Shaman.

  In fact, he and Timur are not from the same ethnic group, but he does not participate in tribal disputes, and only stays in the temple. It has nothing to do with him who dominates the grassland. However, his dominance over the grasslands may still surpass that of Timur.

  But he participated in the Battle of the Central Plains... The demon fox Chili is his direct descendant.

  From this perspective, it can be said that Xia Longyuan controls the second and third by himself. None of them appeared on the front line in person, which was a kind of tacit understanding with Xia Longyuan.

   Or maybe it's a secret battle in the air?

  For example, is that lightning related to the temple of Changshengtian? Zhao Changhe felt that it was still somewhat possible, at least the blind man would not strike thunder just because of that little disrespect, but Hu Shen who was fighting was a little bit more likely.

In short, due to the characteristics of the various ethnic groups in the grassland, many of the coalition forces' camps are not located together, and some are even far apart. This also gives Yue Hongling and others the opportunity to make troubles everywhere. It is very suitable for martial arts masters to do it, breaking through the black wolf camp. That's how it came about.

This time, a small team went to a remote tribal camp, mainly to detect intelligence. If there is a chance, they can also try to do something like burning food and grass. It is similar to army scouts, but more special warfare . Danger is dangerous, but they are all martial arts masters and not ordinary soldiers. They are mainly just for investigation and not for death squads.

  Cui Yuanyong felt that he should at least confirm what happened, and at least confirm his death. If he was not dead but was trapped or caught, he still had to try to rescue him.

  Zhao Changhe also felt that it was necessary, this time galloping the horse was full of sense of mission.

   It’s really far away, Wu Hao let go of the horsepower and galloped for a whole day, but it was dark and he didn’t see it.

   Expand the map and look at it. It’s useless to look at it, and you don’t know where you are. What’s the use of looking at the map?

  He was having a headache, and felt the sound of someone approaching from afar. Zhao Changhe reined in his horse and looked around. When he saw a small dirt bag, he galloped over and hid behind it to wait and see.

  Damn it, it's not easy to find a soil bag in this endless wilderness. Fortunately, Wu Zai was full of spirituality and did not make a sound.

  Under the darkness of night, a convoy gradually approached. The ranks were well-organized, with more than a thousand people. It looked like a well-equipped army, but there were so many vehicles and horses escorting it, it seemed like a caravan, but it was just empty.

  Zhao Changhe was a little stunned. Most of them looked like people from the Central Plains... It looked like they were going to trade with the grassland, and their things were empty. But why is the empty car not full of other things to take back?

   By the way, there are still people trading when the army is fighting?

  Zhao Changhe thought of Ji Yinan's shop, where did this popular prairie thing come from?

  Since there will be things from the grasslands coming south, will there be things from the Central Plains going north?

  Someone was talking and laughing in standard Chinese Mandarin: "I'm afraid there will be horse bandits at this time, so I say it's impossible."

   Another person said: "It's not the horse bandits that I'm afraid of. At this time, a horse bandit dares to approach this area? What I'm afraid of is the real army under the banner of the horse bandits."

   "They shouldn't be able to do it, it's fine to play this set on weekdays, but they still play at this time?"

   "It's hard to say." Someone sighed: "Do you know that it's not just the grassland tribes who pretend to be horse bandits and rob?"

   "Then who else?"

   "Of course it's Huangfu Yongxian. If he robs him, he can only knock out his teeth and swallow his blood. Old things don't dare to make trouble with this, but he dares to eat it."

  Zhao Changhe has counted.

  Damn it, the Central Plains merchants are selling food to the barbarians, right? I haven’t heard of such a thing. I really didn’t expect to play like this during the war. Awesome.

  Huangfu Yongxian lived in the frontier town, and I'm afraid he knew it well. Many considerations made it difficult to launch an attack, so it would be a way to directly grab it back.

   Over there are still chatting:

   "Recently, people are more disgusting. Do you know that there is another kind of one-man bandit?"

   "Ah? What is a one-man bandit? This can also steal things?"

   "It's fine when her name is Yue Hongling."

  Zhao Changhe: "..."

   "So there must be more people and a little less. There have been several incidents where Yue Hongling snatched a group by himself."

   "So that's how it is..." The man shrank his neck: "She can't be around now, can she?"

"There are so many of us this time, of course she doesn't dare. Maybe she's waiting on the road ahead of Huangshaji. Someone was messed up by her on this path before, and made people panic." The person before said through gnashing teeth: "Wait for me Go back and report to the Patriarch to find a way to get revenge on this bitch. She still lives in the Central Plains anyway, and if she can run away, the monk can't run away from the temple. How can she offend us so easily!"

  Someone laughed: "This time there are thousands of us, she will come whenever she has the guts, just to strip her naked for the brothers to play with."

   What follows is a bunch of foul language.

   Zhao Changhe frowned and pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized something, and looked up at the sky.

  Big Dipper refers to... the direction of this team is north.

  He thought about it, and he roughly understood what was going on... These people probably sold food and weapons to the tribe he wanted to go to, but his location was off, and this place was north. After they unloaded, they continued to go north, and went to Huangshaji to buy goods with empty cars.

   Zhao Changhe hesitated for a moment.

   Should I go south to see that tribe, or go north to Huangshaji?
