The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 212 Two hundred and one caravan successfully entered the customs

Duan Wuji turned around and said to Yelu Chucai: "Brother Yelu, prepare more meat tonight, and let these car owners take some with them after dinner. You said it was hundreds of miles away. Who can bear it if you don’t have some food on the road.”

Yelu Chucai nodded.

"No problem, our family has cooked meat now, we knew you were coming, and killed more than ten cows and horses at once.

These are prepared for you, take whatever you want.I'll tell Somia and the others later, let them heat up the cooked meat. "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "The meat you eat tonight can be warmed up, but what are you doing with the meat they brought? Isn't that a waste of time?

You just ask them to bring it out. "

Ye Chu Chu Cai nodded in embarrassment.

Duan Wuji said to his guards: "Our things have been handed over, everyone should have a good rest tonight. Let's pick up the horses and wait for the road tomorrow morning."

After a short time, the two maids brought out the steaming hot cooked meat, and everyone picked up the meat from the basin, squatted around the big basin, and started eating like crazy.

When they were full, the car bosses began to take the meat they ate on the road, and some guards also mixed in with the car bosses and started to take meat.

Yelu Chucai said to Tieniu and Duan Wuji: "My dear brothers, let's go, let's go into the house and wait for dinner. After dinner, let's rest early. Let's pick up the horses early tomorrow. After we're done picking up the horses Get on your way early!"

"okay."

The three of them walked into the room, and within a short time, a large pot of meat was brought out, and Yelusi smiled and wanted to pour wine for Duan Wuji and the others.

Duan Wuji waved his hand.

"Old man, forget it, we won't drink tonight, can we wake up tomorrow if we drink too much?

It’s not like winter now, the days are so long now, the night will pass in a short while, we’re still waiting to leave early tomorrow, can we still leave if we’re drunk? "

"Well, what you said makes sense. If you don't want to drink, then I won't force you today."

After finishing speaking, Yelv Sidu put down the wine jar again.

After dinner, Duan Wuji said to Yelu Chucai: "Brother Yelu, let's wake up early tomorrow and tell the kitchen to let them cook earlier, okay?"

Yelusi laughed and said, "Okay, why not? Brother, when do you tell them to cook? I'll listen to you."

Duan Wuji thought for a while and said: "Let them cook at Yinshi! Let's arrive at the horse farm in Xishan on time at Maoshi. Brother Yelu, do you think this is good?"

"Okay, okay! Let's do as you say."

The two of them walked out of the main room and went back to the room to have a look, ho!All personnel are lying down, not one person on duty.

Duan Wuji walked to Duan Changqing's bed very angrily, and pulled him up.

"Brother Changqing, the goods have all been handed over. Don't you wait for a person on duty? If a few people came in and chopped off our heads with knives, then we don't need to mention our horses. .

With your level, how can you achieve great things in the future? "

After hearing this, Duan Changqing quickly sat up.

"Ah! Brother, you have to be on duty when you run out of goods!"

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Of course. Without the goods, we have to pay attention to the safety of the personnel! You said we were all asleep, if they all killed us, we would be wronged! Brother Changqing, do you think so?"

"Well, it makes sense. I'll arrange it now. Brother, tell me how many people are needed for a shift."

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "It's better to work in three shifts! It is enough to arrange ten people in each shift. The rest of the staff should sleep!"

After hearing this, Duan Changqing immediately called ten people to be on duty quietly.

Duan Wuji went back to the room with Tieniu after seeing him. The two still followed the principle of working in two shifts, sleeping alone and practicing alone.

It was quite safe to arrive overnight, but Duan Wuji and Tieniu roused all the car owners up at Yinshi the next day.

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Before it's daylight, hurry up and get on the road! It's safer. Once the Turkic people get up and move around, it won't be safe for you to leave."

The car owners got on the car, blasted ten cows onto the car, and then quietly left here, heading straight for the Great Wall pass in the southwest.

All the guards got up, and within a short time, the two maids brought out a big pot of cooked meat.

Everyone ran over one after another, grabbed the cooked meat in the pot and ate it like crazy. After they were full, they started to take beef from the big pot and packed it up. Duan Wuji didn't go to the main room until people packed up. Go ask Nayelu to save money.

"Brother Yelu, now that my people are packed, I think we should go to the horse farm to pick up horses. We can go on the road after we figure it out!"

"Okay! Then let's go now."

Saying that, Yelu Chucai walked out from the main room, and the people immediately got on their horses, and everyone followed Yelu Chucai to the horse farm in Shanxi.

When they arrived at the horse farm, Duan Wuji asked with a smile: "Brother Yelu, how many fine horses do you have in this horse farm? How many horses do we have to pick out for you?"

"There are 950 horses in my horse farm. If you don't believe me, just count them."

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Brother Yelu, can I not believe what you say? We have been dealing with each other for so long. Brother Tieniu. You lead the brothers to pick out 950 horses from it."

Tie Niu waved his hands at his brothers.

"Brothers, help me pick out the horses. I'll pick out all the inferior horses. If I pick enough, the rest of the horses will be ours."

After hearing this, everyone split up and picked out all the 950 horses in a short while.

Duan Wuji smiled and said to Tieniu: "Brother Tieniu, you have to be careful today, let's ride the top horse in the herd today, I'm afraid it will save a lot of trouble for the brothers to stir up the horses."

"Okay, then I will try it today, and I will also see how this horse feels."

Duan Wuji plucked the green onion early and jumped into the horse pen in the east, ran to the horses in the east, and grabbed the black horse's neck by the mane.

This black horse was frightened by Duan Wuji yesterday, and obediently followed Duan Wuji out of the herd.

Duan Wuji said to Tieniu: "Brother Tieniu, bring the saddle and put it on this horse. You can ride this black horse today."

After hearing this, Tie Niu took off the saddle from his horse, jumped into the fence, quickly put the saddle on the horse, and put on the horse's bridle, etc. .

Duan Wuji jumped into the stable to the west again, and pulled out the red horse as well. Duan Changqing untied the saddle from Duan Wuji's horse and handed it over.

Duan Wuji also led the red horse out of the stable after packing it up.When the horses in the two stables saw the leading horse coming out, they all ran out following the leading horse.

Seeing this, Duan Wuji sprang onto the horse with a groan, and Duan Wuji said loudly: "Brothers, get on the horse quickly with the pole of the booming horse, we will leave immediately.

Brother Yelu, let's meet again later.We walked. "

After hearing this, Yelu Chucai bowed his hand at Duan Wuji.

"Wuji, Tieniu, take care of yourself all the way, and see you tomorrow."

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

"Okay, see you tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, Duan Wuji and Tie Niu drove their horses to the front, and the other horses ran down after them.

Because there was a powerful leading horse leading, the horses followed very obediently, and there was no sign of blowing up the group.

These guards are so tired, almost all the way, they almost don't use the horse pole to drive the horses away.

The caravan was going faster and faster. As soon as the sun was noon, people caught up with the convoy in front. When the sun was just westward, the caravan arrived at the Great Wall Pass.

Duan Wuji urged his horse to come to the pass and shouted loudly: "Brothers, remove the roadblock and let us enter, we are back again."

When the soldiers guarding the pass saw: it really was Duan Wuji and the others, they immediately removed the roadblock and let Duan Wuji and the others enter the pass.

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu led the horses into the pass first, and then the horse team rushed in.

When the soldiers saw that all the personnel had come in, they quickly moved all the roadblocks back.

Duan Wuji jumped off the horse, and tied the horse to a small pine tree beside the road. Duan Wuji ran to the gate after a while, only to see that the owner of the cart was unloading the cattle from the cart.

After the ten oxen were all unloaded, the carriage owners hurried away with their carriages.

Duan Wuji looked at these cows and said: "Brothers, these cows are yours now, you can keep them for meat."

The little leader guarding the gate smiled and said, "Boss Duan, you are getting more and more generous now. I thank you on behalf of the brothers guarding the gate."

"Hey, why are you thankful? Isn't this what it should be? This is called sharing blessings. If I get rich, can my brothers not benefit?
Okay, okay, get busy!We'll be leaving in a minute, see you later. "

After finishing speaking, Duan Wuji ran back again. Duan Wuji untied his horse and Niu Tie led the brothers to continue walking south.

Duan Wuji shouted to the back while walking: "Brother Changhao, come here."

Hearing Duan Wuji's shout, Duan Changhao immediately urged his horse to run over.

"Brother, what's the matter?"

Duan Wuji whispered to Duan Changhao: "Brother Changhao, you see our team has entered the customs, which is relatively safe in China.

Why don't you follow Brother Tieniu to the Dengzhou Mansion in Shandong, and say that our horse dealer has brought back [-] horses this time, and ask the old prince if he wants all of them. If he wants them all, then we will They all drove the horses over.

This saves trouble.If he doesn't want all of them, ask him how many horses he wants, do you hear me clearly? "

Duan Changhao nodded.

"Brother, I understand what you mean. Then when shall we leave?"

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Let's go now. Brother Changhao, you also know that our group of horses walks very fast. We will arrive at Dengzhou Mansion in Shandong in a few days. You said that you will come back late." Now, isn't it a mistake?"

Tie Niu listened to it and said with a smile: "Okay then! Then who will ride this big horse?"

Duan Wuji laughed and said, "Let Changqing take the ride! I'm afraid others can't do it."

Tie Niu jumped off his horse, called his war horse over and put the saddle back on. Tie Niu said to Duan Changhao, "Brother, don't call your elder brother Changqing over and let him put the saddle in place. Let's go now."

After Duan Changhao heard this, he immediately urged his horse to run to the back, and after a while, Duan Changqing urged his horse to follow.

Tieniu helped Duan Changqing take off his saddle and put it on the horse, and then got on the horse.

Tieniu said to Duan Changhao, "Brother Changhao, let's go now."

Duan Changhao urged the horses, and the two of them beat the horses like flying, and the two horses flew away immediately.

Duan Wuji and Duan Changqing continued to move forward with the horse herd, until the sun was pressing down on the mountain, Duan Wuji and the others found a big carriage and horse shop to live in.
