The cavalry quickly formed a formation, and more than a dozen horsemen in front of them followed closely behind, and the smoke and dust in the sky showed that this chase had been going on for a while.

After seeing the formation unfolded by Feng Ziying's side, the opponent's more than ten horsemen quickly made an arc turn, trying to avoid such an encirclement, but because they were too close and too fast, there were still a few horses falling into the encirclement, a burst of swords and guns were fighting, a few horses fell off their horses, and the remaining ten horses roared away without paying any attention, and even their own archers didn't have time to show it.

"It's the horse thief of Harawusu." After glancing at it, Feng Zuo's face was gloomy.

Such an inhumane act was not possible for the Tatars to do, and they did not hesitate to abandon their companions and flee, purely because of the merit, and in case of danger they went their separate ways.

Hara Wusu is another name for the Heishui River (Dusi Rabbit River) on the grassland.

There are a lot of horse thieves active in this area, they are not only officers and soldiers who escaped from the Han land, but also bandits who killed people and sold goods within the border walls, and some herdsmen who escaped from the pursuit of the chieftain on the grassland.

These people have no faith at all, they can take refuge in the border army today, and they can also turn to the Tatar tribes tomorrow, and they dare to rush up and kill when they encounter a caravan that can be eaten, and occasionally they can work hard for the border army and the Tatars to spy on intelligence or intercept and kill the sentinels on both sides, or even eat both sides at the same time.

"Zuoye, what should I do?" The group had all returned to their positions, and except for one person who was injured in the waist but was not serious, everyone else was unharmed.

"Hurry up and go west, then turn north." Feng Zuo has already realized the danger, these horse thieves must have a purpose in escaping so without hesitation, if it was in the past, no matter how they were, they would have to hover around for a while, but today they obviously came with a purpose.

"What's wrong, Uncle Zuo?" Feng Ziying's adrenaline soared sharply at the moment of the enemy attack, and an unprecedented impulse rippled in her chest, watching the horses galloping wildly, the blades were staggered, and it was only one or two rounds of life and death separated by yin and yang, screaming, roaring, roaring, and then there was the symphony of gold and iron and the horse's hooves, and the blood-boiling situation was imprinted in Feng Ziying's mind like lightning.

"Let's go, most of these horse thieves were ordered to inspect, and if you don't get it, Sunang Taiji has already issued a blockade order, and it's against us,......" Feng Zuo's face was not very good-looking.

Feng Ziying was taken aback, and quickly reacted again, "You mean that our whereabouts have been leaked?" ”

Feng Zuo smiled bitterly: "Young Master, this Yulin Town is so big, there are so many people, what we can think of, others can also think of, and our movements are also being paid attention to, so we can only grab time, although Su Sang is powerful, but he will not publicly turn his face with Bu Shitu now, as long as we enter Bu Shitu's territory, Su Shan can only give up." ”

But two hours later, the thunderous sound of horses' hooves in the rear had already caught up, Feng Ziying couldn't see how many, and it was estimated that it should be about seventy or eighty horses.

At this time, Feng Zuo no longer had the previous anxiety, but was replaced by a calm that bordered on indifference.

"Hu Lik, you take the young master and Master Zhang to the west, and we will meet at the agreed place in three hours, and the rest will follow me." Without giving Feng Ziying any chance to speak, the entire cavalry team quickly divided into three groups, covering the most inconspicuous three cavalry and quickly rushing to the west.

Feng Ziying couldn't remember how long she had been running, and the healthy horse under her crotch began to slow down, and the crotch of her legs began to burn and she didn't feel it before.

Originally, there were four or five horsemen who had been following him, constantly circling and responding, and finally launched a counterattack when the few horses that caught up approached, and only the silent man named Hu Lik was left to run wildly with himself and Zhang Jin.

"Young Master, Master Zhang, go this way." Hu Like easily found the path in the vast night, Feng Ziying and Zhang Jin were surprised by each other's ability, but they didn't have the extra heart to ask at this time.

Three hours later, Feng Ziying finally met the people who had come to meet.

Seventeen horsemen remained, and five never followed.

Feng Zuo didn't ask much, it was obvious that there were specific rules for not closing the night and the sharp whistle, and this feeling of depression made Feng Ziying unspeakably uncomfortable.

"Brother Cong, this is the battlefield, every Chinese New Year's Eve if there will be more than ten people who will not return, and there will be four or five people who will lose the sharp whistle, this is still under the normal situation that there is not much war, the war is together, and it is normal to lose thirty or fifty people on Chinese New Year's Eve."

It seemed that he sensed Feng Ziying's somewhat low mood, but Feng Zuo seemed very indifferent, "If the crockpot is not broken from the wellhead, the general will inevitably die in battle, not to mention the soldiers below?" ”

Seeing that everyone was still in high spirits in the morning, but five people disappeared forever in the evening, Feng Ziying felt this cruelty from the battlefield for the first time.

Feng Ziying didn't say anything more, it seemed redundant to say anything, could it be that she was not mentally prepared for this kind of thing now?

Fortunately, after experiencing this slightly thrilling twist and turn, it seemed calm down in the next two days, and in the following two days, Feng Ziying also learned from the words of these soldiers.

It was probably the horse thief who quickly passed the news to the cavalry of Sunantai Ji who was roaming around here, and probably more than a hundred horsemen chased after him.

These rangers are also the elite of the Tatars, one man and three horses, so the pursuit speed is very fast, in order to get rid of it, Feng Zuo and they have to divide into three groups, and adopt the situation of entanglement and harassment to drag the other side, although this side is far superior to the other side in terms of individual combat power, but the huge difference in numbers still caused losses.

******

"They're gone?" Some dark yellow pupils were staring at something in the darkness like a beast, and the slightly dim oil lamps in the big tent, and the brazier piled in the center, made the whole tent have a sense of heaviness flickering and flickering, "Where are you going?" ”

"Taiji, a few people left separately, but the one who is said to be the son of General Feng did not leave, but he was very active, and it is said that he has contact with several nobles from other departments."

"Do you think I see it or not?" The voice was a little hesitant, but a little unwilling.

"Taiji, I think it's better to see each other, not to mention that Taiji and the Feng family have always had a relationship, but we always need to maintain trade contacts with the Han land, and the Ulut side is also a little excited." The man kneeling at the door swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said slowly: "The tea bricks they brought are very good, and the Wulu Commander Du'er Taiji also wants to see him." ”

Wulu Du'er Taiji is Bu Shitu's uncle, and he is also the head of the Ulut in the Tumut Department, and he is also an important ally of Bu Shitu.

Bu Shitu's face looked much older than his actual age, with small eyes, a wide flat nose, and a wide mouth, but a pair of eyes were extraordinarily bright.

The people on the grassland are like this, and after staying in the West Sea for so many years, his face has the unique black and red color of the West Sea Plateau, but that face is completely following the mold of his father Chao Rabbit Taiji, and is very similar to his grandfather Pullik, and with this face, the stone rabbit has won the support of many people in the Tumut tribe.

Of course, this is all secondary, Bu Shitu knows that in fact, many people support him more because they are afraid that the third lady has controlled the power and wealth of the tribe for so many years, especially the monopoly of trade with Da Zhou, plus the control of the richest Bansheng region, which makes it difficult for many people to balance.

Now that he has finally survived until his grandfather died, then who will be the Tumut Khan and who will take over the king of Shunyi will have to talk about the Tao.

"You said some of them were gone, where did they go?" Bu Shitu was a little unwilling to be so passive.

Of course, he understood the purpose of the envoy of the Great Zhou, and the army of Su Nang exerted a lot of pressure on the Great Zhou on the line from the Huangfu River to the Hongliu River, and it is said that he even broke through several fortresses and broke into the border walls to grab a lot of good things.

This made Bu Shitu both envious, jealous and hateful, and some expectations.

Bu Shitu knew that his strength did not allow him to be so capricious, not only to let Da Zhou give him the title of King of Shunyi, but also to force Da Zhou to give him greater benefits, such as opening more mutual market points on the border trade market and giving more merchants the qualification of mutual market.

But it is not without benefit that Su Nang is making such a big fuss, at least he can have more weight on Da Zhou's side.

"I don't know, the people they brought are very powerful, they are all one person and two horses, as soon as they go out, they can't find a figure, and the people sent to follow them disappeared after a while, it should be the night of the border army on the Yulin side,......"

The report of the people below made Bu Shitu very unhappy, "A bunch of fools, this little thing can't be done!" I know that I want tea and salt all day long, and you can't even figure out the bottom line of other people's conditions, how can you reach out to others and ask for things? ”

The person kneeling at the door hurriedly lowered his head, and was also a little ashamed, on the grassland, on his own territory, he actually lost people, and it was indeed a bit embarrassing.

"Did they contact the Han people in the south?" Bu Shitu's heart suddenly froze, as if he remembered something.

"Can't you? Those Han people are afraid that they will not deal with the Great Zhou court, and their leaders have been beheaded by the Great Zhou,......" The person kneeling at the door raised his head in surprise, "For so many years, I have never heard of them having any connection with the Han land,......"

"We didn't find out, it doesn't mean that there is no contact, and it's been so many years, the Great Zhou Imperial Court may not be able to remember these people, but General Feng may not be able to remember, by the way, you said that the leader is General Feng's son?"

Bu Shitu was a little suspicious, he knew very well the situation of the Feng family, and the real person of Datong.

When I was a child, I followed my father to Datong, which is really a first-class city in the world, and the prosperity and wealth have appeared from time to time in his dreams, the Feng family is the most powerful family in Datong, in their understanding, it is like the status of Altan Khan in the Tumut branch, except for Chahar, in Datong, maybe except for the Great Zhou court, it should be the Feng family who speaks the most.

But the ruler of the Feng family, whom his father took him, died in the war with the Chahars more than ten years ago, and later Kai was succeeded by his younger brother, and then the younger brother also died of illness, and now this Feng general succeeded his elder brother, but it is not very clear why the Great Zhou court drove this Feng general out of Datong and drove him to the Hetao.

However, it is estimated that it is similar to the reasons for these struggles for power and profit on the grassland, and Bu Shitu can probably guess it.

The first two generals of the Feng family have no heirs, only the current General Feng has a son-in-law, and these tribes in the grassland are also clear about these situations, after all, this Feng general controls the most elite border army of the Great Zhou on the Hetao side, and also has unparalleled influence on the Datong side.

So Bu Shitu didn't believe that this General Feng dared to send his only sister-in-law to the grassland, wasn't he afraid of accidents?
