"Well," Gao Xing responded softly, and then asked, "What's happened to Gao Shaoyi recently?" These days Gao Xing has been paying attention to the movements of Bei Zhou and Turkic, so he didn't pay much attention to Gao Shaoyi.

"Reporting to my little lord, Gao Shaoyi has been recruiting a lot these days, and now he has nearly 20 troops under his command, of which the [-] army under Gao Baoning's command is considered elite, and Gao Shaoyi is currently in Yingzhou,"

"He actually came to Yingzhou. Is he worried that the emperor will send troops to conquer him, or is he trying to deal with me?" Gao Xing frowned slightly, pondered for a moment and continued: "I have ordered the blockade of trade with Gao Shaoyi, where is Gao Shaoyi? With so much money coming to support the army, could it be that he is extorting money and oppressing the people again?"

"My lord guessed wrong this time." Zhang Shunzhi shook his head and said, "Gao Shaoyi also knew her own situation, so she has been extraordinarily restrained in the past few months. I'm afraid his situation will be even more difficult. Although Yingzhou and other places are not as rich as Shandong and Jiangsu, there are no fewer wealthy families here. Gao Shaoyi's money and food to support the army come from wealthy businessmen who have always had a gap with him."

"So that's how it is," nodded happily, then shook his head and said softly: "Although Gao Shaoyi's move can solve the urgent need, it is still drinking poison to quench thirst. The wealthy family is not so familiar, and Gao Shaoyi will not end well if they are pushed too hard."

What Gao Xing said is true, Gao Shaoyi's current situation is really embarrassing. Although he has 20 soldiers and horses under his command, he dare not take the initiative to provoke Gao Changgong. What's more important is that Gao Changgong has a wide range of soldiers under his command, and Gao Shaoyi has no confidence in defeating him head-on.

Therefore, Gao Shaoyi can only work hard to train soldiers, accumulate strength, and wait for opportunities, but this process is extremely difficult. In order to stabilize the morale of the army, Gao Shaoyi dare not levy too harsh taxes. Moreover, in the past few years due to natural disasters and man-made disasters, there is very little left by the people. , It can only be a drop in the bucket, and only the family business of those rich Jiashi can play a little role.

Although Gao Shaoyi's butcher's knife is only aimed at those families that have been at odds with him, his actions still make everyone under the rule panic and frightened. No one knows how long the confrontation between Gao Shaoyi and Gao Changgong will last. No one knows whether Gao Shaoyi's butcher knife will hesitate to "friend" after the "enemy" is wiped out.

"The reason why those gentry tolerated it is because they are waiting to see. If we can't resist the Turkic attack, they will immediately and firmly support Gao Shaoyi. If the Turkic is not victorious, Gao Shaoyi will also be in disaster."

Gao Xing said with a faint sneer on the corner of his mouth: "No, Gao Shaoyi can't be allowed to continue to mess around like this, or when Bo Khan enters Daqi, that old boy is likely to stab a knife in the back, which is fatal."

Originally, Gao Shaoyi was happy to not move because he hoped to use his hand to find out all those who had ulterior motives towards the center, but the plan could not keep up with the changes, and now the eradication of Gao Shaoyi had to be put on the agenda.

Although Gao Shaoyi is confident but not conceited, although Gao Shaoyi's 20 troops are not elite, they are still 20. Even 20 ants and bees are enough to make you flustered. The effect is extremely huge.

Zhang Shunzhi asked seriously: "What is the order of the little prince?"

"This matter needs to be planned, don't be in a hurry," Gao Xing narrowed his eyes and said calmly, just as he finished speaking, his brows suddenly raised slightly, and he said in a low voice: "We have to wait for someone to come,"

As he said that, Gao Xing took out the telescope from his waist and placed it in front of his eyes to look in the direction of Yingzhou. Over the past few years, the production and polishing skills of glass have improved several levels, and the distance that this telescope can observe is also incomparable.

After a while, Xing Xing put down the binoculars, and smiled at Zhang Shunzhi: "After changing clothes, let's go down and wait for them." Saying this, Xing Xing quickly removed the clothes, shoes and socks on his body, and then changed into the Hu clothes and Hu clothes that Zhang Shunzhi handed over. boots.

After changing his clothes, he happily took out the tools he carried with him and began to disguise himself. His movements were fast, like a butterfly wearing a flower, which dazzled people.

When Gao Xing stopped what he was doing, his whole appearance suddenly changed, from the original elegant and suave Mr. Pian Pian to a dark complexioned Khitan man with beards, his eyes gleamed fiercely, and he looked very He is vicious and vicious, and there is a strong stench of cattle and sheep on his body. If he doesn't know that the person in front of him is happy, Zhang Shunzhi almost thinks that he is a brave and ruthless prairie man.

Zhang Shunzhi was not idle when Gao Xing disguised himself, he also changed the clothes on his body into Hu clothes, pretending to be a Khitan, but he only had the appearance and did not have the charm of Xing Xing.

"Let's go,"

After tidying up, Gao Xing got on his horse and sprinted down the slope first. This time, Xing Xing did not ride the bloody horse, but a Khitan war horse. There was no high bridge saddle, nor double stirrups, but Gao Xing's whole person seemed to be on the back of a horse, extremely stable, not only that, Gao Xing rode the horse along, drinking in a low voice from time to time, speaking in Khitan language, and his voice was rough and hoarse from the grassland .

When Zhang Shunzhi and Gao Xing went down the slope together, a group of people finally appeared in the field of vision. Judging from the flag, it should be a caravan, and the scale was not small.

After a short time, the caravan came to the slope. Sure enough, the caravan was very large, with about forty carriages and more than [-] people. There were no less than [-] guards, and all of them walked vigorously. The imposing manner is calm, obviously they are not mediocre.

The two happy people saw the caravan, and the people in the caravan naturally saw the two happy people. They were still a hundred meters away from the happy two people, and the caravan stopped. He stopped 30 meters away in front of Gao Xing, clasped his fists, and said loudly: "Two friends, we are a caravan from Daqi, and we are going to Khitan for business. I hope I didn't disturb the two friends."

Seeing that the two of them were wearing Khitan clothes, it was because this young man also spoke Khitan language. He had a sincere look on his face and kindness in his tone, but his half-closed eyes were full of brilliance. Intentionally or unintentionally, his right hand was attached to the hilt of the saber hanging by the saddle.

"Han people, why do you come to our grasslands, especially Han businessmen, they are extremely treacherous, they only know that we are defrauding property," Gao Xing looked at the young man unkindly, and shouted loudly: "Say, are you spies of the Han people? What are your plans for going to the grassland, "

The young man frowned, stroked his chest, and said sincerely: "My friend, I think you have misunderstood. We are serious businessmen, and we have no ill intentions towards you. Prince Dahe Chucai and I are still friends."

Hearing this, he was so happy and furious that he suddenly pulled out the bend at his waist, pointed the knife point at the young man in front of him, and scolded him severely: "Bastard, how dare you say you are friends with my king, and don't even look at what lowly you are!" identity,"

The young man looked at him with surprise and said happily: "Hey, Prince Dahe Chucai is now the King of Khitan,"

"Of course," raised his head happily and proudly, and then scolded angrily: "You really don't know where you came from, you don't even know about this matter, and you dare to say that you are a friend of the king. Tell me why you came quickly, otherwise I will definitely kill you." You captured the Hui people and tortured them severely, "

"Wait a minute," the young man hastily shouted loudly: "I have more than a month to come to Khitan, so it's not surprising that I don't know about it. Look, I have the golden arrow that King Dahe gave me here," the young man said on his own He took out a short arrow from his arms, the whole body was golden, shining brightly under the scorching sun.

Seeing the golden arrow, his happy eyes suddenly focused. Although the distance was not close, he still saw a unique mark of the Dahe family on the golden arrow, and he couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

"Why do you have my family's token in your hand, you are really not a spy," Gao Xing frowned and asked doubtfully.

"It's absolutely true," the young man nodded heavily, "The goods we delivered this time are exactly what King Dahe wanted."

Gao Xing asked, "What's your name?"

"Ye Ziwen,"

"My lord Wang Yan has always been in contact with my king before, why don't you see him now," he said, stretching his neck happily and looking behind the young man.

"My master is resting in the back," said the young man, put the golden arrow back into his arms, looked carefully at the two of Gao Xing and said, "Who are you, you were sent by King Yamato, do you have any tokens to prove it?"

"How dare you doubt us," Gao Xing glared at me with a fierce look on his face, "As long as you see Mr. Wang Yan, he will naturally know us. Let's go and take us there."

The young man frowned, looked around again, and after confirming that there was no ambush, he said: "Follow me, I warn you, it's best not to play tricks, or don't blame me for being rude."

"Huh," Gao Xing snorted coldly, urged the horse to follow behind the young man and walked towards the caravan.

When the three of them came to the front of the caravan, they saw a young man in a coarse gray shirt coming out.

"Boss, they claim to be the messengers of Dahe Chucai. You can see if it is true or not. If they are fake, I will capture them immediately," the young man cupped his hands to the young man in gray, and then yanked his waist One-third of the sword was drawn out.

"Caixia shines on the window, and there is a man outside the door," looking at the young man in gray, Gao Xing slightly twitched the corner of his mouth, but said in Chinese with a weird accent.

Everyone was overwhelmed by the mist, only the young man in gray trembled slightly, his eyes flashed brightly, but it was fleeting, and then said in a calm tone: "The body is about eight feet long, measuring horizontally."
