Chapter 212 Next Batch
And soon, the Taoist priests also knew about it.
"It seems that there are no defeated soldiers from Liangzhou chasing us, which means that the rebellion has been successfully suppressed.
Those so-called Dada warriors also guessed the situation and presented the women they were escorting to Dada's Grand Tutor Alu as a token of their loyalty. "Lu Guan had not known the news from the outside world for a long time.
Shen Xiaoye said: "The point is, there are women from the Wu family inside, luckily the boy from his family was exposed, otherwise we would have been caught as soon as we came into contact.
And Bart, should we go and get in touch with him?"
Shen Changsui said confidently: "We need to make contact. Let's do this. Lu Guan and Guard Xia will bring 30 people to talk to Bart when they camp at night.
Taoist priests, are you willing to lend a helping hand and help suppress the rebellion?
"Of course." Qingxi agreed, and then everyone predicted several situations and developed corresponding response methods.
As night fell, a team of thirty people rode side by side and quickly found Bart's team on duty.
Lu Guan went straight to him, with Jin Ye Zi as the pioneer, and the two talked in the corner.
Balte admitted his mistake and said, "Being a horse thief is a really lucrative business. What do you want?"
"We will follow you to the city in Mobei where you don't have to move." Lu Guan said seriously, "After you agree, we will just follow behind but not join you."
"It's more convenient to join." Bart didn't have any enthusiasm to persuade him. He asked doubtfully, "Could it be that you are afraid of being eaten by me?"
Lu Guan: "No, the reason is that some of us are from Zhou. They took the risk of going out of the border just for my sake."
"But if you follow me, I'm also worried about being ambushed." Bart squinted at him for a moment and said, "If you really want to follow me, I'll give you double the gold leaves."
"Impossible. At worst, we can continue to go west to find the Wa people." Lu Guan was not intimidated.
Bart said, "Wali has a grudge against us, are you sure you want to go?"
“I would like to find Khan Court, but I have been walking this road for a month and often go the wrong way.
If the border troops hadn't killed us all, we would have preferred to stay in the Great Zhou territory. Their caravans are rich and easy to rob. "Lu Guan said with a smile:
"If you don't agree, I will leave now and wait for the next group of people to come so that I can find a companion."
"There won't be another batch. It is said that the Emperor of Great Zhou will be in Xinghe to rest and review the soldiers.
As long as the tribe received the news, no one dared to travel alone, as they would be contaminated if they were not careful. "Bart said with some pride, he finally understood why this kid begged him, they didn't know the way.
Lu Guan hurriedly asked, "Who sent the news? It's so fast!"
Bart chuckled and said nothing, but stretched out his hand.
Lu Guan took several deep breaths and slowly took out another piece of gold leaf and gave it to him, which was one third of the amount he had given him originally.
But Bart continued to smile and said, "You have to know that apart from our team, there will be no one else within a thousand miles.
Of course, if you wander around for a while longer, the Emperor of the Great Zhou will give you a way out."
Pah, Lu Guan added another blow, and then said viciously: "This is the last one. You must ensure that you can control your troops and not launch a surprise attack on us.
When we reach the Khan's court, we will seek refuge with a familiar tribe."
"No problem." Bart saw that he had squeezed them almost enough, so he stopped. His men had secretly checked and found that there were more than fifty people on the other side, and more than 90% of them were young and strong.
Without the old and weak dragging them down, the 200 people on their side who were not affiliated with the same family might not be able to destroy the other side.
After thinking for a while, he said, "We will set out at the beginning of the morning."
He kept his word and set out before dawn the next day.
Shen Xiaoye's team was following at a distance of seven or eight miles. After riding fast for several days, they still did not see any fast soldiers chasing them to report the news to Bart.
That night, Taoist Qingxi was on patrol when he suddenly discovered something. "Stay here and don't move."
Shen Xiaoye, who was on night patrol with them, patted the little black cat on his shoulder, and the cat also ran after it. Guard Xia and Lu Guan, who were also on night patrol on the other side, also noticed the situation here and started to chase after it.
"What could it be? Senior sister, I just saw it looked like a bird flying past." More than a dozen Taoist disciples were divided into two groups by two Taoist priests. This was the youngest Taoist priest led by Qingxi, who was eighteen years old, asking the oldest female priest among them.
The female crown said: "Haitongqing."
"There must be more than one." Shen Xiaoye immediately wondered in which border town the accomplices of these people might be.
No, she had to go to her uncle because he had the border map in his head.
But the nun said: "This bird is difficult to tame, they won't have a second one."
She was right. After the two night patrol teams joined together and expanded the patrol range of the camp, even though they focused on the sky, no second Saker Falcon appeared.
Shen Xiaoye couldn't help but ask: "Uncle, do you need to send someone back?"
"What do you think?" Shen Changsui asked her back.
She shook her head. "We are already the sharp sword drawn from its sheath. The rear has its own defense."
If we send someone back alone now, not to mention the danger of traveling thousands of miles alone in the vast grassland, the mere fact that one person is missing from the team will arouse Bart's vigilance.
In the past few nights, as Lu Guan continued to contact Bart with good wine and food, they have learned more about the true situation of the convoy ahead.
The Butai family, to which Barte belongs, is the second largest family in the convoy. The Wu family, which is the largest family, now nominally controls the direction because the second son of the Wu family is here.
The other two are slightly inferior to these two, but because they work together, they can compete with the first and second.
After Shen Xiaoye learned the details, he lamented that struggle is really everywhere.
She said, "I don't know who owns this Saker Falcon. I hope it belongs to Bart."
Her hopes were doomed to fail. Taoist Qingxi was very fast, but he finally caught up to the edge of the camp ahead and had to be released.
The people guarding the camp were Dada people. As soon as they spotted outsiders, they immediately drew their swords and attacked. The little black cat took advantage of the night and flew into the camp.
Fortunately, Lu Guan, who was chasing behind, arrived. He revealed his identity and stuffed a bag of copper coins into the leader's pocket, "I'm here to see Bart."
The copper coins of the Zhou Dynasty were very popular in the grasslands and even further away.
"Wait." The leader gladly accepted it. He had received a lot of benefits from this man in the past few days. He sent someone to report to the camp.
But not long after, the person who reported came back and said that Bart had gone to the tent of the second son of the Wu family.
At this time, Bart in the tent was worried: "No one came out?"
“No, the Great Zhou sent a lot of troops this time, with more than a thousand cavalry alone.
Moreover, the emperor is now reviewing the army in Xinghe, and foreign travelers are surrendering one after another, so Waqifa does not dare to go against his sharp edge.
Alas! Bart, if we were to go there alone, we would be eaten alive." The second young master Wu clenched his fists.
The other two leaders looked at each other and asked, "Second Master, what do you think? Should we return and serve?"
