high official

Chapter 1162
It is said that at that time, in front of the Ming army, Shi Niegan was pulled by the soldiers and turned around and ran away.

Knowing that the general situation is over, Shi Nirgan didn't think about it, and fled straight to the river.At that time, a large number of Tatars hadn't squeezed in yet, and there was still a place to plug in by the river, so Si Niegan saw his father's guards guarding the river bank, not allowing anyone to approach.Shi Niegan knew that his father had some new way to escape. After all, he was a big auspicious man, so there was no way for others to rush to him.

When he passed through the human wall formed by the guards, he saw Alutai and a group of Tatar nobles, each holding a sheepskin bag, blowing fiercely with their cheeks stretched.

When Shi Niegan saw it, he was shocked, unexpectedly, the old fox was still hiding this trick, so he hurried over and called out sweetly: "Father."

Alutai was staring, and blew violently. He almost lost his breath when he heard the disgusting sound. He rolled his eyes in anger, and hurriedly puffed up his cheeks like a toad, filling the sheepskin bag with air.

After inflating the sheepskin bag in his hand, and then tied the air port with a rope, Alutai said palely and out of breath: "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and tie the raft!"

"Hey!" Shi Niegan quickly took the sheepskin bag and tied it to a wooden raft the size of a bed board.

"Tighten it up! This is a life-saving guy!" Alutai was panting heavily while chattering beside him.If he hadn't blown a skin bag and was out of breath, he wouldn't have assembled his own boat of life by other people's hands.

Sheepskin rafts are the main means of crossing the river for the Han people in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, and the most important thing is the sheepskin airbag made of whole sheepskin.This requires a high level of slaughtering and stripping skills. From the opening of the sheep's neck, slowly take off the whole piece of skin without scratching a little fur. The limbs are tightly bound, and it becomes a bulging cylinder.

A number of such cylinders are tied to a wooden raft made of several pieces of wood, and the sheepskin raft is made.This thing is small and light, with a shallow draft, which is very suitable for inland navigation, and all parts can be disassembled, and the weight is very light, very easy to carry.It can be said to be a must-have artifact for home travel and escape across the river.

Shi Niegan is so big, and I only saw it once, but I didn't expect the old fox to bring a pair.

.

Soon, the other eight sheepskin bags were blown, and all the Tatar nobles worked together to assemble the raft and push it into the river.

The old grand master, who was usually very old and walked slowly, was now in a strong figure, and with a whoosh, he was the first to jump onto the raft.

Shi Niegan and all the Tatar nobles also climbed up against the clock, because at this moment, the defeated Tatar army had swarmed to the river, and when they saw the sheepskin raft, they frantically rushed over as if seeing a savior.

The guards of Alutai hurriedly stopped those people desperately, until someone yelled: "You idiots, even if you stop us, you won't be able to get on the raft!"

Only then did the guards of Arutai suddenly realize, yes, the raft is so big, it carried Arutai and his son, and six Tatar nobles, where is there room for us?Looking back hurriedly, I saw that the Tatar nobles on the raft had already steered the raft away from the river bank with spears in their hands. Alutai comforted them loudly: "Don't panic, I will come back after sending the old man's raft..."

I don't know how many people believe this, anyway, no one on the raft believes...

In a blink of an eye, the sheepskin raft sailed to the middle of the river, and the aristocrat who was operating the boat wanted to row to the other side of the river, but Alutai grabbed the spear that was used as a boat pole.The nobleman was puzzled, and asked Alutai in a trembling voice: "Grand Master, what's the matter, do you want to go back?" He thought Alutai had a sudden kindness.

"Go back to the fart." Arutai scolded: "I won't let you let the other side row."

"Ah?!" Everyone on the raft was taken aback: "Why don't you cross the river? You can join the army after crossing the river!"

"How do you know that the Ming army didn't have an ambush on the south bank of the river?" Arutai said decisively, "We have rafts, and it's safest on the river. Go downstream and join them."

"Here, the three armies have no commander, how can we meet the enemy?" Shi Niegan immediately objected, stuffed with too many Han family military books.

"If you talk nonsense, get out." Alutai glanced coldly at Shi Nirgan, and said, "In the current situation, even if Genghis Khan is resurrected, there is no cure. Guaranteeing your own safety is the most important thing."

The Tatar nobles on the side nodded secretly, thinking, and taught the old master another lesson.

Shi Niegan was indignant, in his opinion, if Arutai hadn't been desperately urging him to go on the road overnight, why would the army be so vulnerable?The old fox has no intention of apologizing, but instead left the army and fled, and plausibly promoted his escape theory, it is really shameless!
Although seeing that Alutai didn't abandon himself, Shi Niegan swallowed the words that came to his lips, but the disapproval flashed across his face, which still made Arutai very upset, and muffled Said: "You ungrateful dog, if it weren't for Lao Tzu, would you have escaped?"

Before Alutai finished speaking, he heard a sudden sound of breaking through the air, and several sharp arrows shot from the bank of the river. It was obvious that the Ming army had discovered them.The Tatar nobles on the raft suddenly became a mess, but the space on the raft was too small and crowded with people, where could there be a place for them to hide?
However, that is only for ordinary people. Tatar grand master Arutai is naturally far superior to ordinary people in this respect.When the sound of piercing the air sounded, he was obviously standing on the outermost side. When the bow and arrow came, he had already hidden behind a group of Tatar nobles. No one knew how he did it.

Alutai had a human shield, so the dozen or so arrows that shot over him naturally couldn't hurt him at all.There is a saying that the son of a dragon, a dragon, a phoenix, and a phoenix mouse can make holes, and Shi Nirgan's movements are not slow. He grabbed a Tatar nobleman and stood in front of him, but he was not shot.

The rest of the people were not so lucky. Four of the six Tatar nobles were shot by arrows, two fell into the river screaming, and two fell on the raft clutching the parts of the arrows.Those who missed the arrow breathed a long sigh of relief.After a while, the raft floated more than ten feet away, which was beyond the shooting range of the Ming army.I thought in my heart that fortunately, the auspicious star shines brightly, and now I have escaped and ascended to heaven...

Before everyone was happy, they heard the sound of puffing, and a Tatar nobleman asked strangely: "Who is farting?"

It was Alutai who was the first to react, looked around, and cursed: "Fart your mother, the raft is leaking air!"

Shi Niegan and others hurriedly followed Alutai's gaze, and saw in horror that four or five sheepskin bags were pierced by the wave of arrows just now, and they were slowly deflated.

"Clos it up!" Alutai hurriedly shouted, trying to plug the leak with his own hands. Shi Niegan and others rushed to help, but the sheepskin bag had already been shot through, and it was impossible to save it...

Seeing that the raft gradually sank as the buoyancy became weaker, and it was below the ankle in a blink of an eye, everyone looked at Alutai in horror. Now that it has left the shallow water area, sinking would be death!

Sure enough, Alutai lived up to everyone's expectations, and immediately had an idea: "We must reduce the weight..." After speaking, his eyes searched on the raft, and landed on the two wounded ships.

Everyone understood. Seeing the other people's malicious eyes, the two wounded men shuddered immediately, and begged in horror: "Grand Master, don't want it, we have been loyal for decades..."

"Now is the time for you to be loyal to this old man." After Alutai finished speaking, he gave a wink to the three Shi Niegan standing behind the two wounded, and the three understood, and immediately pushed the two wounded into the water.

The two wounded screamed and fell into the water, and sank to the bottom after a few thumps...

.

There were fewer people on the raft, and the sinking tendency of the raft stopped.Alu Tai breathed a sigh of relief: "There are four sheepskin bags left, which can barely carry the four of us."

Shi Niegan and the others also breathed a sigh of relief, and then the old grand master ordered again: "You guys quickly check and see how the other skins are, and there must be no more leaks."

Shi Niegan and the two Tatar nobles immediately bent down and squatted beside the raft to check the remaining airbags.If one airbag is damaged, a person has to go down, so they dare not be careless.

It doesn't matter if you don't check it, but when you check it, you are shocked, and the three of them are horrified to find that two of the remaining four airbags have also begun to leak...

However, the three of them remained calm, let alone make any noise, and planned to stand up first before speaking.Unexpectedly, as soon as the two Tatar nobles raised their buttocks, they were kicked down one by one by Alutai behind them.

Two Tatar nobles fell into the water with a splash, one was swept away by the current, and the other was so agile that he grabbed the edge of the raft inconceivably, and cursed in the water: "Old man! You have no conscience, you will die..."

Before he could finish speaking, his hands were chopped off by Alutai. The man screamed and got out of the raft, and was swept away by the current in a blink of an eye.

Alutai kicked the two bloody hands that were still on the raft into the water, turned around and saw Shen Niegan holding a weapon, looking at him warily.

On the raft, only the father and son who harbored evil intentions were left.Under the raft, there were only two intact sheepskin sacs left, and they began to slowly tilt up...Shan Nirvana was on top, Arutai was on the bottom, and the river water had already reached the Tatar Grand Master's ankles.

"You have already discovered that the two skin bags are also leaking?" Shone Niegan shouted.

"That's right, I didn't say it on purpose." Alutai said lightly, "If they had known earlier, those who are still standing on the raft at this moment may not necessarily be my father and son." Sitting idle, he moved a lot closer to where Shi Niegan was located without a trace.

"Stop!" But he didn't hide it from Si Niegan, he raised his knife and pointed at Alutai, and said nervously: "Don't come close!"

"Don't worry, tiger poison doesn't eat babies..." Alutai looked at Shen Nie with a sad face and said: "After all, the loess is buried up to the old man's neck. If only one person can live on this raft, do you think the old man will choose?" alone?"

Shi Niegan was taken aback by Arutai's words, and saw him take out a gold seal from his arms, and handed it over to himself, saying: "Put away this grand master's gold seal, if the old man can't go back, You shall inherit the great cause of my Tartars."
