Water Margin people

Chapter 1377 The Sable Road (Part )

"Yes, not only mink, but also seaweed. They also send seaweed to the Western Regions!"

Temujin said quickly.

"nonsense!"

Wanyan Wu begged to buy and roared, Haidongqing is their totem, buying and selling Haidongqing is tantamount to betraying faith.

"You dare to do it but don't dare to let people tell you? Do you think you can do it without being noticed? I happened to see it that time. When you sent people to the Western Regions, there were several wooden cages covered with black cloth. Isn’t it Haidongqing or something? Isn’t that what you want the Khitans to do when they come to offer sacrifices?”

Temujin looked at Wanyan Wu Qinghui with cold eyes. He now looked down upon Wanyanwu Qinghui very much. He used to think that the Jurchens were powerful, but now it seems that they are nothing more than that.

"Haitongqing! That's not surprising!"

Sun Lei laughed. If it was just mink fur, then doing business with the Western Regions would not be worthwhile. After all, the distance is here, and the value of mink fur is limited no matter how expensive it is.

But Haidongqing is different. The value of this thing is priceless in the eyes of the nobles in Central and West Asia, even in later generations.

Wanyan Wu Qimai's face was ashen and he no longer looked at Sun Lei, as if he wanted to fight with silence.

"Forget it, everything will be revealed to the world when I get to Huanglong Mansion!"

Sun Lei got up and left.

"Your Majesty, don't you ask about the route to the Western Region?"

Zhu Wu asked Sun Lei in a low voice, this kind of road is a secret, and few people in the entire Jin Kingdom know about it.

"Commander Xu, what do you think?"

Sun Lei looked at Xu Guanzhong and asked. Xu Guanzhong was a geography expert and had a map of the entire north in his head.

"It's not a secret. Like the Silk Road, it is a road leading to the Western Regions. Unlike the Central Plains, it is much easier for the grassland to go to the Western Regions. Starting from the Dalshilka River and the Ergun River, we can go all the way to the Western Regions. The whole west is grassland!”

Xu Guanzhong said, it is much easier for the Jurchens to go to the Western Regions than to the Central Plains.

"It's that simple?"

Zhu Wu didn't believe it.

"The road is at your feet. It's nothing more than climbing mountains and crossing rivers. There aren't any big mountains or rivers along the way. It's not difficult to cross!"

Sun Lei opened his mouth and said that the only thing that can really stop people in this era is the sea, and mountains and rivers are no longer enough to stop people.

It was getting brighter, and many troops had returned to the central army.

"His Majesty!"

When Bao Xu and others saw Sun Lei, they immediately stepped forward to salute.

"how's it going?"

Sun Lei looked at Bao Xu and asked.

"We killed countless enemies and captured a lot. There is a lot of baggage in the enemy camp! The only shortcoming is that there is not much food and grass."

Bao Xu said, there is nothing that can be done about it. The Jin Kingdom's logistics supplies are not as good as theirs. During this period, the food and grass consumption was huge. It was good that it was not exhausted.

"Where's Tieniu?"

Sun Lei didn't hear Li Kui's noise and was still a little unaccustomed to it. Li Kui must have started shouting normally.

"I just complained a lot and cursed the enemy for running too fast. He hasn't had enough of killing yet. Now he is lying down and snoring."

Xiang Chong said.

"You are trapped in a camp that is not suitable for pursuit. There are many prisoners now. Please be more careful and don't let these people cause riots."

Sun Lei looked at Bao Xu, Xiang Chong, and Li Gun and said, "The rest of the light cavalry and infantry went to chase the enemy. Only the heavy cavalry in the trapped camp was not suitable for pursuit."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The three of them saluted Sun Lei.

After arranging things, Sun Lei walked towards the Jin Kingdom camp, ready to see what he could gain.

Arriving at the Jin Kingdom camp, Zongze and others were commanding the army to take prisoners and count the loot.

"Your Majesty!" Seeing Sun Lei coming, Zong Ze and others hurriedly greeted him and saluted.

"Why are you doing this?"

Sun Lei looked at several veterans and asked, these chores can be done by his officers.

Seeing several people's expressions of embarrassment, Sun Lei understood a little.

"You should bring some elites out to pursue them. Enemies are running everywhere. We need to kill them quickly! If they run too much, they may cause trouble!"

Sun Lei looked at the few people and said that they must have given up the pursuit because the Western Army and the Forbidden Army were not capable of fighting, but they were obviously unwilling to do so. Although they had a lot of military exploits in this battle, no general would complain about having too many military exploits.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Everyone was overjoyed. At this time, the Jin army had been completely defeated. Although the combat effectiveness of their soldiers was a little worse, it was more than enough to select some elites to pursue these defeated troops.

Zongze, Zhang Shuye, Zhong Shidao and others quickly selected their men, and each of them had a thousand elite soldiers who quickly rushed around.

"These veterans are really old-hearted!"

Xu Guanzhong said with a smile.

"If you can move, let them! We have indeed sent people. If these broken soldiers escape too much, they may hide in the mountains and become bandits. It will be very troublesome to exterminate them by then!"

Sun Lei said, Liaodong is surrounded by mountains on three sides. If a large number of troops break into the mountains and become bandits, Liaodong will not be able to live in peace for a long time.

"Your Majesty, this is the enemy general captured by General Zong!"

Several soldiers brought the tied Wanyan Xiyin over. At this time, Wanyan Xiyin's face was pale and there was a bloody hole in his shoulder. The injury was serious.

"Wanyan Xiyin!"

Sun Lei looked at Wanyan Xiyin in surprise. He thought this guy had run away, but he didn't expect to be picked by Zong Ze.

"Give him some treatment! Just keep him alive for now! I will interrogate him later!"

Sun Lei said, the war is not over yet, their soldiers are very busy, and there are a large number of wounded on their side that need treatment, so naturally they can't care about the enemy.

However, Wanyan Xiyin still has some uses. This person is the creator of Jurchen writing. Writing is very important to a nation. As the creator, Wanyan Xiyin should know a lot of things.

"Sun...Lei, kill me...kill me!"

Wanyan Xiyin roared tremblingly, but after the roar, he gasped violently and could no longer make a sound. It seemed that the roar had exhausted all his strength.

"How can it be so easy to die? Once you're cured, kill slowly. One stab today, another one tomorrow. See how many days it takes to kill you!"

Sun Lei smiled solemnly and said, which frightened Wanyan Xiyin. He gasped violently in his chest, and blood kept coming out of the wound. He rolled his eyes and fainted.

"So ungrateful?"

Sun Lei shook his head disdainfully and said, he originally wanted to have fun.

"Your Majesty has captured more than 30,000 war horses..."

Jiang Qin began to introduce the seizure to Sun Lei.

"How many of these throwing machines are complete?"

After listening, Sun Lei patted a throwing machine and asked.

"There are more than a dozen complete ones, and seventy or eighty broken ones!"

Jiang Qin replied.

"Let me study these, mainly to see what the differences are in the craftsmanship!"

Sun Lei patted the throwing machine and said.

Jiang Qin nodded and immediately gave instructions to a soldier beside him.

"Clean up this place and turn it into a prisoner of war camp!"

Sun Lei looked around and said, the Jin Kingdom's position was very strong, and trenches were even dug to prevent cavalry attacks. This kind of place can be turned into a prison as long as several entrances and exits are guarded.
