Datang male nanny

Chapter 248
Departing from Chang'an and crossing the border of Qinling Mountains, it is common to see Tubo and Western Turkic sentries patrolling and intruding from time to time.

The place it passes is the Silk Road, through which traveling merchants from the East and the West entered the Tang Dynasty, or traveled to the West.

Although Datang sent troops to guard this commercial road, due to the vast territory and long battle lines, Datang's military deployment was very limited.

Ni Tu decided to do a good job with the Tibetans and Western Turks along the way.

Hit a punch to avoid a hundred punches.

Stop beating the Tubo people and Western Turkic people, and be scared. Do these people think that the Tang people are easy to bully?

After Ni Tu taught the course, he took a small mountain stream in front of him as the test content.

Standing at the highest point of the high mountain, Cheng Zheng looked at the fortifications in full swing below the mountain, and asked, "Brother, you are really amazing. The lesson you just taught yesterday has been fulfilled today. Can you count it?"

Ni Tu smiled slightly and said: "Brother, you should study the military newspaper carefully. A few days ago, the Western Turks intercepted and killed a caravan from our Tang Dynasty here, and the Tubo people robbed a caravan from the West again at the beginning of last month. According to the above-mentioned times of interception and robbery, it has basically formed a pattern. The Tibetans come once a month, and the Western Turks come every ten days. If my guess is right, the Tibetans will arrive here tomorrow, waiting for the caravan to arrive. "

"What? They regard robbing wealth and roads as on-duty? They still come regularly? Don't those merchants follow this rule to avoid danger? Naturally, the big caravan of my Tang Dynasty knows, or else the wandering hunters along the road are What are you doing?"

"You mean they are the outposts of the Datang Caravan?"

Ni Tu nodded
"That's right! We marched this time, no wonder the merchants who followed the brigade, sent people to count them today, almost enough 4000 people, caught up with our team, dare to take us as they lead to the western countries The guards are gone!"

"Don't worry about it! Send someone to check and register the information of these people in detail."

"Yes! We're going to collect protection money from them!" Cheng Zheng slapped his head, and laughed foolishly.

Ni Tu pursed his lips and said, "It's not a protection fee, it's to prevent secret operations from being mixed in. If there are Tibetans or Western Turks here, wouldn't it be easy for us to be pocketed by the other party? How will we die then? ,Do not know at all."

"That's right!" Cheng Zheng slapped his head with his big hand, and suddenly came to his senses, and immediately sent someone to investigate the merchants behind the registration.

Ni Tu strictly enforced control measures within [-] miles of the canyon pass, and restricted the caravan to a distance of [-] miles. He clearly told them that there will be many battles along the way. It is not a regular army, and it will take it as its mission to successfully reach Tianzhu, so it is important to preserve its strength, and it will move strategically and randomly at random.

When everyone understood the meaning of this strategic lightning transfer, there was a lot of discussion among merchants.

Thinking that they will bear the brunt of the enemy's cannibalism at that time, some merchants can't sit still anymore, and they pack up their things and leave.

Because the road ahead was blocked, they crossed the border through the jungle through mountains and mountains.

Some of the remaining caravans insisted on the idea that being escorted by a large force is safe, and insisted on moving forward with the large force.

Cheng Zheng sent more people to register these merchants and find out the details.

In the evening, he was really found out and named a spy.

Three Tibetans and four Western Turks.

It's a pity that after two hours of continuous interrogation, several people just didn't speak.

Ni Tu threw a blueprint to Cheng Zheng.Let him find a blacksmith to make it.

Soon, the seven spies confessed obediently.

Cheng Zheng admired Ni Tu even more: "Brother, fortunately, I and you are blood brothers, otherwise if I fall into your hands that day, life would be worse than death!"

Ni Tu went back angrily: "Are you praising me, or scolding me?"

"Hey, I praise you, of course I praise you!"

"How is it? Have the seven recruited yet?" Ni Tu lay down comfortably on the rocking chair, and began to rock comfortably.

"Recruited, all recruited. Damn guys, we were targeted by them when we set off from Chang'an. We traveled all the way, and revealed our itinerary all the way. Brothers really did not make a mistake. Before we arrived here two days ago , they have already spread the news, informing their team to intercept and kill us halfway. Fortunately, we have traveled day and night for the past two days and arrived here in advance to avoid being occupied by these bad guys in advance. Otherwise, we would have become Let the leeks be harvested by bandits like them."

Thinking of leaving the Qinling Mountains and seeing corpses discarded everywhere along the road, Cheng Zheng felt itchy with hatred.

In recent years, although Datang has been very strict in the management of the people under the rule, the people of Datang are still too weak because of years of fighting, and the security in these frontiers is almost at their own discretion.

The Tubo people and the Western Turkic people had their sights on the fertile Silk Road, where they could not only intercept supplies, but also intercept money, so they naturally saw back and forth here.

As for the Tibetans and the Western Turks, bloody battles often occurred because of robbing property.

But these bandits, who were full of blood and blood, gradually felt that fighting with weapons and killing between the two was meaningless, and gradually formed an unwritten practice.

If you come to grab it, I will hide.I'll grab it, you rest first.

Slaughtering fat lambs, the two countries have reached a tacit agreement.

The unlucky nature is that they trekked thousands of miles on the Silk Road, but lost their lives and lost money and goods at the border of Tang and Tubo.

But slaughter is also restrained.Once a crop of leeks has been cut, it cannot be harvested every day.

They will always spare a large number of traveling merchants during the month's rest interval.

If not, this Silk Road would have been abandoned long ago.

Many businessmen have stepped into this dangerous road time and time again with a fluke mentality.

Ni Tu admired these envoys who were proficient in communication between the East and the West, but he still felt sorry for their lives.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.Should those who lick blood on the tip of a knife admire their bravery, or should they take risks for money?
"Keep these details, they will be of great use."

Cheng Zheng was tearing up dried chicken, when he heard Ni Tu's words, he raised his head and asked, "These hateful people can be hacked! It's a burden to take on the road."

"I'm afraid the ones who want to kill them the most are Tubo and Western Turks, so let's not help them now."

"Why?"

"Because they know too much!"

"What?" Cheng Zheng thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes widened, "That's right! Why didn't I think of that!"

"However, if you keep them, they may not be willing to say anything!"

"This is easy to handle. Let the carpenter build a few prison carts and tie them inside. When the war starts, it depends on whether the Tibetans save them or kill them. At that time, they will make their own choices."

"Bet? What will be the result of your bet?"

Ni Tu closed his eyes, took a deep breath and said, "Wait and see!"
