Seeing that Zheng Peng was a little puzzled, Kuro took the initiative to explain: "Xiaobai can hunt prey like a wolf, but its size is not large, it is difficult to grasp heavy prey for long-distance transportation, like this wolf is killed, it will eat the delicious offal part, and then selectively transport back a part of the loot, so that you don't have to be too tired." ”

"Of course, if Xiaobai is not artificially raised, he needs to find food on his own weekdays, and there are offspring to raise, he will transport it back to hunt food in batches many times, or get up and grab it, rest many times in the middle, and slowly transport it back to his lair."

It turned out that this was the case, Zheng Peng suddenly realized.

Lan Duo kicked the bloody wolf's head on the ground with a little smugness, glanced at Zheng Peng, and quickly said, "Zheng Jianjun, how is it, Xiaobai didn't disappoint you, right?" ”

Zheng Peng didn't speak, ran straight to the sheepfold on the side, picked up a sheep and ran around the barracks......

As a deputy envoy of the supervising army, Zheng Peng did what he said, not only did the soldiers of the Tiger Head team trust Zheng Peng more, but even Lan Duo couldn't help but be impressed.

was still waiting for Zheng Peng to beg for mercy, but he didn't expect Zheng Peng to be so simple.

Zheng Peng held the sheep in the applause to complete the promise of the bet, and when he put down the sheep, he also asked Lan Duo: "County Lord, are you satisfied?" ”

"It's okay to be so-so." Lando pouted.

I was convinced, but I just didn't let Zheng Peng be too proud.

Zheng Peng smiled indifferently, disapproving, Guo Ziyi, who was standing next to him, was very interested in the golden vulture Xiaobai, and said a little embarrassedly: "This golden vulture is really spiritual, I know the eagle, but the training is so spiritual, it is really powerful, the county lord, can you teach me how to train?" ”

Burishing the eagle is to capture the eagle alive, by not letting it sleep, splashing cold water, making noise, etc., not letting it rest, torturing the eagle in disguise, so that its wildness fades, and its willpower continues to decrease, so as to get the purpose of taming, Guo Ziyi saw for the first time that the eagle would be trained so spiritually.

Let it catch whatever prey it catches, as if it can understand human speech, God.

"Big brother, this is a secret that is not passed on by others, how can it be easily said, isn't this self-deprecating?" Zheng Peng poured cold water on the side.

Lan Duo didn't want to say it, but when he heard Zheng Peng say it, he was angry in his heart, and said loudly: "It's not a secret that is not passed on, the training method of the bird slave is different, many people are caught adult birds of prey to be tamed, the bird slave is a young bird that has not been born for a long time, and it has been fed and trained since childhood, and it does not need to be boiled, mainly divided into indoor and outdoor training, not to mention indoors, it is to cultivate feelings, carefully fed, and outdoor is domesticated is the key." ”

"First of all, the first step is to call the eagle, which is placed on the hillside that can be seen from the falconer, and then the eagle is called back to the arm; The second step is for the falconer to stand on the top of the mountain and let the eagle observe the movement below, while his assistant drags the fox skin back and forth on the snow below the mountain with a long white rope until the eagle finds it and pounces on the fake fox. I don't know how many times a day I have to repeat this action, people are tired, and the eagle is sleepy. ”

"When the eagle learns to catch its prey, it is necessary to teach them how to monitor and express their meanings, such as how to indicate a large number of people, how to express a small number of people, etc." Speaking of this, Lan Duo exhaled a long breath before continuing: "Although Xiaobai only listens to the white bird slave alone, when training, there are more than ten people to assist the white bird slave. ”

It's an understatement, but Zheng Peng knows that when it comes to real action, I don't know how much hardship and effort it takes.

It's really so easy to tamesticate, and the forces of the Turgish have long dominated the Western Regions.

Guo Ziyi said with some sighs: "I am still thinking about whether I can create a raptor reconnaissance unit, so it seems that it is difficult." ”

"It's very difficult" Kuro took over: "We, the Gloro clan, also want to learn this method, and we have invested a lot of money before and after, but in the end we still have no gain, so we can only give up." ”

Zheng Peng patted Kuro on the shoulder and said: "Forget it, don't think so much, with the right-hand man of the county lord joining today, we have a higher chance of winning, with such fresh wolf meat, what are you waiting for, roast wolf meat, go, come tonight without getting drunk and homeless." ”

In the thousands of years of history of China, I don't know how many wars have occurred, like the side door left road, these can take advantage of a while, but it is difficult to become a climate, the war to the end, or to fight the foundation and will, a force to reduce ten will, in the face of absolute power, all conspiracies and tricks are paper tigers.

It was a blessing to get the help of the finchman unexpectedly.

In the Western Regions, the cold wind was raging, and the snow was flying, but Shang Mi's town guard made Ding Zhenshan feel the heat in his heart.

The defenders of Shangmi Town, with the cooperation of the soldiers of Xiao Bolu, won a complete victory, not only captured a lot, but also won the appreciation of the imperial envoy of the supervising army.

In order to express Zhang Xiaosong's gratitude, Ding Zhenshan set up a banquet, and frequently toasted Zhang Xiaosong during the banquet.

After winning the first battle, Zhang Xiaosong was also in a good mood, and pointed to Ding Zhenshan: "Ding Zhen is the guard." ”

"The last general, Zhang Yushi, please instruct." Ding Zhenshan said respectfully.

Zhang Xiaosong drank a glass of wine under the waiter of the beautiful maid on the side, and then said, "What do you think of this operation?" ”

"This..."

"If you have something to say, you might as well say it, there are no outsiders here."

There are no outsiders, Ding Zhenshan felt flattered, and said cautiously: "This operation seems to be smooth, but in fact there are many doubts, one is that the value of the seizure is not high, with the seizure of Tubo, it must be far more than this bit of goods, and the other is that the people escorted by Tubo will collapse at the touch of a button, and there is no decent resistance, if you guess well, this escort should be a temptation." ”

"That's right" Zhang Xiaosong knocked on the table with his hand and said: "It's not just a temptation, it may be a gift to some people, Ding Zhen's escort, you can't relax your vigilance because of a victory, you must strengthen the defense here, and you can't let the Tubo people go in and out of the land as if no one is there; Also, pay attention to the south side. ”

Ding Zhenshan's heart sank when he heard this, and he quickly said with a straight face: "The last general will take the order." ”

The big and small Bolu are sandwiched between the two powerful countries of the Tang Dynasty and Tubo, in order to survive, not only the big and small Bolu, but most of the forces in the Western Regions are like this, these have long been open secrets, Zhang Xiaosong hinted so boldly, obviously dissatisfied with the big and small Bolu.

Tubo went to fight in the Tang Dynasty, and simply reached out to grab meat in the pot of the Tang Dynasty, as the imperial history of the supervising army in charge of the affairs of the Western Regions, Zhang Xiaosong lost face, maybe he was impeached in the court, and it was strange that he was in a good mood.

The two discussed for a while, and seeing Zhang Xiaosong's tired face, Ding Zhenshan said to the beautiful maid who was waiting on the side: "Madili, go and tidy up the quilt for Zhang Yushi, go." ”

Madeli bowed her head and left under the eyes of Zhang Xiaosong.

Ding Zhenshan showed an imperceptible smile at the corner of his mouth, and said in a low voice: "Shangmi is a small place, there are no good things, the weather is too cold tonight, Zhang Yushi, add two pillows at night?" ”

Zhang Xiaosong smiled, waved his hand and said, "Zhenshan is polite, just add one, hehe." ”

"Yes, yes, Zhang Yushi is tired after a busy day, and he will retire."

At the table, Zhang Xiaosong looked at Madili with exotic blood on the side from time to time, and Ding Zhenshan had already seen it in his eyes and understood it for a long time.

No, as soon as he said "add a pillow", Zhang Xiaosong's tone and title changed.

The Tang Dynasty has an open atmosphere, and the upper class society has become a habit of keeping slaves, if anyone does not have a few beautiful maids to accompany the guests to sleep, it will be looked down upon, Zhang Xiaosong agreed to "add a pillow", even if it is passed out, it will not cause criticism.

After Ding Hengshan retreated, Zhang Xiaosong, who was a little drunk, returned to the room that was baked by the charcoal stove, and saw Madili sitting on the edge of the couch with a shy jade face, and couldn't help but feel distracted, and was about to walk over, when suddenly there was a report from his subordinates outside: "Report, there is new information." ”

Zhang Xiaosong was a little disappointed, walked out of the room with a stiff face, and asked in a deep voice, "What is the new information?" ”

"The deputy envoy of the supervising army, yesterday with the escort team, marched from Qiuzi to the direction of Khotan Town, and the county lord of Landuo of Tuqi Shi was also in the team."

"That's it?"

“... Yes. ”

Zhang Xiaosong said impatiently: "Zheng Peng is the deputy supervisor, sent by His Majesty, he can go wherever he likes, he doesn't need to report to a certain person, let alone spend manpower and material resources to monitor him, if he has the ability, it is better to collect more information about the various forces in the Western Regions, understand?" ”

Zheng Peng has long hinted that this trip is not to seize power, nor to control himself, Zhang Xiaosong has observed Zheng Peng, and it seems that he is here for sightseeing when he goes to the Western Regions, and he does not point fingers at the armaments of the Western Regions, and second, he does not harass the military and civilians of the Western Regions, and it is a blessing to meet this kind of deputy.

It's up to him to do what he likes to do and where he likes to go.

Zhang Xiaosong has long heard that Zheng Peng and the county lord of Lando have a lot of entanglements, Landuo stayed directly in the Zheng family when he was in Chang'an, and traveled together from Chang'an to the Western Regions, and the discerning people felt that the relationship between the two was a little unusual, what happened in the team?

Zheng Peng didn't come to provoke himself, what did he do to collect information about him? What if you him off?

It's really full and playing.

After repulsing the staff, Zhang Xiaosong didn't bother to guess Zheng Peng's purpose, and some monkeys hurriedly pushed the door in......

When Zhang Xiaosong transferred the battlefield to the couch, on the desert hundreds of miles away from Shangmi, a strong man wearing a shabby sheep jacket waved his hand and said loudly in Tubo: "Let's go." ”

In the dark, there were many shadows, and I don't know how many people were heading in the southeast direction.

Zheng Peng told Lu Xiu that after inspecting elsewhere, he led the team straight to Khotan Town.

Lu Xiu didn't keep it, he was very happy to send grain and grass to Zheng Peng, and he also led people to send him ten miles, and then he went home.

There was a prison army by his side, and he felt that something was wrong left and right, for fear that he would accidentally let Zheng Peng catch his handle, and seeing that Zheng Peng was leaving, Lu Xiu couldn't ask for it.

No one noticed that when Zheng Peng left the barracks, the escort team plus Lando's personal guards added up to more than 180 people, but when they arrived in Khotan Town, there were less than 150 personnel, even Kuluo, who was familiar with the terrain of the Western Regions, was not in the team.
