The Ezo Island in the north of the Wa Kingdom is the future Hokkaido. However, in the era of the Tang Dynasty, the Ezo Island was still unowned and did not belong to the Wa Kingdom. There were also natives living on the island, and these natives were the Ayi of later generations Nu people, but because these Ainu people have thick body hair, most people prefer to call them "hair" people.

At the beginning, in order to have enough troops to attack the Wa Kingdom, Li Min followed Wang An's suggestion and moved a group of Hu people from the grasslands in the north of the Tang Dynasty to Sibi, and promised them that if the Wa Kingdom was conquered, he would give them a place to live. The land was used for grazing, and this land was chosen by him on Ezo Island.

In the war against the Japanese country, the prairie troops did contribute a lot, and tens of thousands of people were killed or injured. Among the several troops organized to attack the Japanese country, they were the ones who suffered the most casualties.After the war, Li Yin also kept his promise and sent all 17 Hu people to Ezo Island, but this aroused the dissatisfaction of the local Mao people, and they went to war with the Hu people. It's a pity that those Mao people 』People are short in stature, and they are in the primitive society. They don't even have iron weapons. How can they be fierce opponents of grassland barbarians?So in a short period of time, the "hairy" people on Ezo Island were driven into the jungle in the center of the island, and they didn't dare to come out at all.

The shape of Ezo Island looks like a crab without legs, and the center is high and the surrounding area is low. Most of the island is surrounded by flat land, which is very suitable for farming and animal husbandry. It is precisely because of this that after the grassland barbarians moved here, The trees around the island were cut down, and then sold to Han merchants who came by boat, and the Han merchants brought oil, salt, cloth and other daily necessities to exchange with the barbarians on the island.

After the forests were cut down on the flat land around Ezo Island, it quickly became patches of fertile pastures.Li Yin, on the other hand, divided Ezo Island into Ezo Prefecture separately.With the support of Li Yin, Father Duer's Luoyun tribe became the largest tribe in Ezo Prefecture.At the same time, Socher, the leader of the Luoyun Department, became the first governor of Ezo Prefecture.Capital Datang 470

On a large plain in the southeast of Ezo Island, a large river flows out of the forest in the center of the island.It crosses the plain and flows into the sea, and on one of the relatively flat river beaches, two brown bears are drinking water and catching fish in the river. Occasionally, some other animals come to the river, but they dare not get too close to the brown bears.

"Bah~ bah~" Following a few crisp gunshots, the two fat brown bears let out two shrill screams, and several blood holes appeared in their chests.One of them was estimated to have been hit in the heart, so it immediately fell down, twitched a few times and then stopped moving.Although the other end was seriously injured.But he didn't die immediately, instead he rushed to the place where the gun was shot, apparently wanting to tear the thing that injured him into pieces.

But before the brown bear rushed to the front, more than a dozen people turned out from the woods where the gun was shot. I saw that these people were all wearing military uniforms of Prince Qi's mansion, with muskets on their backs, but now they were holding bows and arrows. All the sharp points were facing the brown bear rushing over, but the leaders were two extremely burly men.It looks very ferocious, even at a glance, it looks like two brown bears wearing clothes.

Seeing the brown bear rushing, those soldiers just wanted to shoot the opponent to death with arrows.However, he was stopped by the older burly man at the front and said: "This bear is handed over to me, you all back off!"

Hearing this man's order, the young burly man next to him said anxiously: "Father, didn't you promise Uncle Zhou when you came here that you would never take any more risks?"

"Hey. I promised not to take any more risks, but this brown bear has already been injured. There is no wēixié at all. Do you think I can't beat a stupid bear?" This older, burly man is Li Hu Li is the most powerful general under Min, and the young man next to him who looks very similar to him is his eldest son Hu Qiang.

Speaking of which, Hu Li and his family are really small. Aunt Hu and Lu Hong have been married for many years, but they have not yet become pregnant, and Lu Hong is unwilling to take a concubine. As a result, the two still have no children. One of Qing's sons adopted him to inherit the incense of their lineage.

As for Hu Li, he did not have a son, Hu Qiang, until he was in his 30s. Now, he looks like he was carved out of the same mold as Hu Li. In addition, Hu Qiang has several younger sisters, most of whom are also grown up. After seeing the five big and three rough ones, Li Yin admired their strength of Hu family genes from the bottom of his heart. In addition, he was also worried, wondering if these daughters of Hu Li could still marry?

As soon as Hu Li's words fell, the injured brown bear had already crossed a hundred paces and rushed towards Hu Li like a locomotive.But Hu Li sneered twice, also ran a few steps, and then ruthlessly collided with the brown bear.

Huli is Li Yin's number one fierce general, and also a famous strongman in the Tang Dynasty. He is two meters tall and has muscles all over his body. In terms of appearance alone, he is no worse than a brown bear. Li is also well versed in the way of fighting. When he collided with the brown bear, he had already used his ingenuity, so not only was he not injured, but he also knocked the brown bear back two steps.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hu Li raised his casserole-sized fist and hit the brown bear's chin with an uppercut.If it were a person, it is estimated that this punch is enough to shatter the bones of the opponent's jaw, but the brown bear has rough skin and thick flesh, this punch can't do anything to it, but it arouses its ferocity even more. He stood up and rushed towards Hu Li.

If it were someone else, they would probably have to dodge it, but Hu Li relied on his own strength, turned sideways and bumped into the brown bear's chest with his shoulder. As a result, he knocked over the unsteady brown bear, and at the same time, the gunshot wound on its chest was also hurting. He was bleeding outside, and Hu Li was splashed with a lot of bear blood on his body and face. In addition, his back was also scratched by the bear crawling. Not only were his clothes torn, but he also suffered some skin trauma. Very tragic and bloody.

Seeing the brown bear fell to the ground again, Huli would not give it another chance. He ran a few steps to the brown bear, said "Hey~" and pressed the brown bear's head with one hand, then made a fist with the other hand, exhausted The strength of the whole body went on, hitting the vital points behind the brown bear's ears every time, but no matter how hard the brown bear struggled, it couldn't break away from Huli's iron fist. In addition, the vital points on the head were constantly being attacked. The bear lost the ability to resist, roared a few times and finally stopped moving.

"Hahaha~, I'm happy, this bear is really strong. If it hadn't been injured with a musket beforehand, it would have cost a lot to get rid of it!" Seeing that the brown bear finally stopped moving, Hu Li laughed and stood up. Then he took a few sips from the water bottle sent by the guard behind him, looking very excited.

However, Hu Qiang next to him was a little helpless and took a "medicine" bottle from the guard, and then walked over and said: "Father, take off your shirt, I will sterilize your wound!"

Huli's back was slightly scratched, although it was only a skin trauma, but if it got inflamed, it could kill someone, so after hearing what his son said, he didn't refuse, took off his clothes to reveal his strong back, Hu Qiang poured the disinfectant alcohol in the medicine bottle on the wound, and then spread it evenly with a cotton swab, but his face was full of helplessness.

After the country of Wa was occupied by Li Yin, it was also designated as a separate state, named Wazhou. Although Wazhou was guarded by two Japanese "traitor" families, the Shishang family and the Suga family, they still could not control the situation. Because of this, Hu Li, Zhou Long and others have been stationed in the country of Wa with their troops, and Hu Qiang has also reached the age of experience, so he was called by Hu Li from Taiwan to the country of Wa, and now he serves as his own personal guard , and also followed him and Zhou Long to learn the art of war.

Hu Qiang is different from his father, Hu Li. Although Hu Qiang is tall and thick, he is actually a thoughtful person. He also likes to read since he was a child, and he has a lot of research on the art of war.Regarding this point, Hu Li also felt that his son was not like him. If Hu Qiang hadn't been carved out of the same mold as him, he would have doubted whether the other party was his own.

Now Hu Qiang follows Hu Li and Zhou Long, mainly to learn from their experience in leading and training troops. This is very suitable for Zhou Long's appetite, and he has made it clear that he wants to accept Hu Qiang as his apprentice, intending to teach him everything he has learned.This time, Hu Li received Li Yin's order to leave the country of Wa and come to Ezo Island to do business, so Hu Qiang naturally wanted to come to broaden his horizons.Capital Datang 470

Originally, Zhou Long was going to come with Hu Li and his son, and they had already arrived on Ezo Island, but the day before yesterday, because of the temporary news that there was another force in the north of the Wa Kingdom, Zhou Long was very worried, so He handed over the task to Huli, and he brought people back to the Wa Kingdom to sit in charge.

But before Zhou Long left, he "forced" Huli to make an oath that he would never take any more risks in the future!This is mainly because when Hu Li saw the brown bears all over Ezo Island, he felt itchy for a moment, and he even competed with the brown bears. As a result, he quickly fell in love with this dangerous sport, which made Zhou Long worry about what happened to Hu Li. Unexpectedly, that's why he was asked to make an oath, but now it seems that this oath is not very binding on Hu Li.

After Hu Qiang gave his father the medicine, several guards worked together to lift up one brown bear. Hu Qiang picked up the other end by himself, and then followed Hu Li back to the camp.Speaking of which, the two bears weigh five or six hundred catties, even if several guards work together, they will have to be replaced after a while, but this is obviously very easy for Hu Qiang, after all, his family-inherited muscles are not Decoration, even if it is not comparable to father Huli now, it is not comparable to ordinary people.

Huli and the others walked along the river bank, passed through this small plain full of weeds and shrubs, and soon came to the outlet of the river, and beside the outlet, a solid cement fortress stood there.Next to the cement castle, there is a small pier. This is one of the stronghold piers set up by Li Min on Ezo Island. The purpose is to guard the prairie people on the island and prohibit them from going overseas. Now this is the place where Huli However, when Huli and the others came back, the people he was waiting for were already waiting for him here. (To be continued.)
