There were still hundreds of Han Chinese roaming and patrolling near the railroad tracks, but no matter what happened, they couldn't escape their eyes.
"We have been inspecting for more than half a month, and nothing has happened. It is a waste to send so many people here."
One of them couldn't help but complain. Although the patrol work was easy, it would be a bit boring to do the same thing day after day.
Several people echoed his words, "That is, every day I look at these grasses and look at the past, there is no other sight, and the whole person is numb."
This is the northernmost point outside the city. Except for the people who come to pick up the goods, almost no one has set foot on it. Therefore, once the peak trade season comes, there will be countless people who come to unload or deliver the goods, and the railway tracks are densely packed. people.
But once it's the off-season, let alone people, not even a single ghost is seen, so that's what caused this phenomenon. It's fine if you don't come.
"If you want me to say that the border is stable, the grassland has also signed a contract with our Daming, and dare not attack again."
"Most of those who robbed in the past were herdsmen who had nowhere to go. Now that their problems have been solved, the number of robbers has really decreased. I don't think it's necessary to spend a lot of time here. With so many people here, it's a waste of troops."
Most of the people's talk is that they hope to reduce the number of troops, so that they will not waste time here.
The leader of the patrol was a young man, but what he said was old-fashioned. He hated that iron was not steel:
"Look at you, everyone is so impatient. There is no movement in the grasslands for the time being. What if they want to paralyze us, what if they send troops today!"
"How can there be such a coincidence, when they say war, they go to war. They don't have to rest and recuperate, and they are alive and kicking so quickly."
Suddenly he made a silent gesture, and everyone was confused, only to see him tilted his head and looked a little serious.
"Master Zhao, what's wrong with you?"
"Did you hear anything?"
The others looked at each other in dismay and shook their heads one after another, "There's no sound, sir, did you hear it wrong?"
Master Zhao's eyes fell on the southeast direction. A gust of wind blew from nowhere, and the grass in the distance swayed gently, like waves on the calm sea, spreading from far to near.
The waves were layer after layer, which was not obvious at first glance. When everyone noticed it, they had already run forward for several meters, and were quickly approaching the railway track.
"I think I heard it too. It was the sound of footsteps and horses' hooves."
Everyone realized that something was wrong, and cautiously approached the front. The sound of hooves from the ground became more and more obvious. It seemed that many people rode their horses in this direction.
After they got close, they carefully pushed aside the grass that was half a person high in front of them, and saw countless prairie people riding their horses. At a rough glance, there were at least tens of thousands, and together they were probably more than dozens of medium-sized tribes. .
"What happened? Why are these herdsmen gathered together?"
Master Zhao shook his head, "There is something wrong with the situation. These herdsmen are not as simple as ordinary herdsmen."
Sharp-eyed people also found that these herdsmen not only carried weapons, but also fully armed. "There are subtle differences in their clothing, and they should be from several tribes."
Combining different tribes, carrying weapons, and several keywords together, everyone smelled the danger. If they wanted to enter the city or do business, there was no need for such a big battle unless they wanted to go to war!
Everyone was stunned.
"The grassland didn't sign an agreement with Daming, how dare they? Isn't this a blatant provocation, do these people still want their heads..."
Mr. Zhao is also confused. After the last battle, the grassland has been severely damaged, and then there is the internal struggle for power and profit. Even the descendants of the Golden Family, Yali Boer, is in power to unify the grassland, but it will be difficult for a short period of time. recover.
At this time, they didn't think about how to repair their relationship with Daming and take a good rest, but they openly mobilized their troops.
Even if it can threaten the border for a while, but if it is against the main force of the Ming Dynasty, there is no magic at all. Once the reinforcements arrive, the anger of the Ming Dynasty will be waiting for the grassland.
"What are they trying to do?"
At this moment, everyone can't think of it even if they want to break their heads. Emperor Daming is in the new city. What these people want to do is to capture Zhu Di alive. With this bargaining chip, they can be invincible.
"Dogs can't change to eat shit, what are these people afraid of? We must bring this news back quickly, and then contact the court and ask them to send troops to support."
Master Zhao and the others were preparing to retreat quietly, but with a "whoosh", a cold arrow fell, and he ducked to the side, and the others were not so lucky.
"There are people from the Ming Dynasty here!"
Oops, they were discovered!
Master Zhao was so annoyed that he could only shout loudly: "Get out!"
They were fast, but the prairie people who came on horseback were even faster, "I was just looking for you, but I didn't expect you to send them here."
Mr. Zhao and his patrol team were only a hundred or so people, and there was no comparison for dealing with thousands of people on the grassland. Even if others fought desperately, they couldn't escape from Ascension and bring the news out.
Soon Master Zhao was tied up by Wuhua and pressed in front of Yali Bo'er.
"be honest!"
Master Zhao was kicked and half kneeled on the ground. He raised his head and waited for the man in front of him, recognizing that he was the new hero on the grassland.
Even Yali has personally entered the battle, which must be no trivial matter.
"What the hell do you want to do!"
Yali Bo'er smiled slowly and said in a low voice, "Go and catch your emperor."
His voice was not loud, and it fell into the ears of Master Zhao without a doubt.
Ariel didn't explain that much, just made a gesture of wiping her neck. .
Chapter 317
The people in these patrols would never have imagined that Zhu Di had left the palace secretly and had already arrived at the border gate. What was even more unexpected was that someone had leaked his whereabouts.
Master Zhao's eyes stared in the direction of the city gate, with a touch of unwillingness and doubt, Yali Bo'er threw his body aside.
The blood stained the withered and yellow grass leaves, making them incomparably bright. The color was a bit unbearable to look at, but for the grassland people, it was the best incentive.
"Everyone obeys my orders and goes with me to capture the Emperor of Ming Dynasty! Anyone who catches Zhu Di will be rewarded heavily by Ben Khan!"
Yali Bo'er roared, and the prairie people swarmed towards the border town like hungry wolves. Their eyes were full of inevitable light, "Catch Zhu Di alive!"
The guards around here have all been wiped out by the grassland people, and no one knows their movements, let alone anyone who will pass the news back.
There is a peaceful scene in the border town, but I don't know the wind and rain outside.
Zhu Di 14 and the others rested for a while in the inn. After eating, they almost rested. When the people who brought them here before saw the generosity of this group of people, they suddenly felt flattered in their hearts, and they approached again.
"Hello everyone, my name is Li An. I think you have rested. Do you have any ideas about going to the city?"
Hearing what Li An said, Zhu Di was quite moved, "Do you have any famous scenic spots here?"
Li An scratched his head, "There are no attractions in the newly built city here. It's just that those trade markets are still worth seeing. There are everything in it. There are only things you can't think of, and nothing you can't see."
Originally, he thought that these people came from afar. Although the border crossings are not rich in products, but because of the construction of the railway tracks, everything from all over the world has been transported, and the things are better than a strange word, far beyond what the capital can imagine. Just for them to watch.
But who is Zhu Di, the honor of Ninety-five, and has never seen anything strange, Li An sees that they are all lacking in interest, and he knows that they are not interested.
"Yes!" Li An clapped his hands, as if thinking of something.
"There is one place you must like. We built a high-rise building here. It was originally used to observe the grasslands and used as a defensive warning. But now the grasslands are calm and the use is not great. Now people can go up and look at the scenery."
Zhu Di nodded, but was quite interested, "Listen to what you said, you can go and have a look."
"The scenery there is also good. It is built in the east of the new city. There are grasslands in all directions, and you can see most of the scenery."
Li An led the way, and it didn't take long before they led the crowd to a high-rise building, which was open to the outside world as he said, but there didn't seem to be many people on it now.
"It's here." Li An pointed to the tall building in front, "When you stand on it, it feels like you're in the clouds."
Everyone stepped on the steps and climbed up layer by layer. When they reached the top of the building, a cool breeze hit, bringing the freshness of the grasslands. When they walked to the observatory, they really felt like they would be at the top of the building and see the mountains and small mountains. a feeling of.
Zhu Di was blowing the cool wind and praised: "This location is not bad."
Since the new city is almost built in the center, and the tall buildings are on the east side of it, the scenery in all directions can be seen. If there is any situation on the grassland, you can immediately notice it here.
"The only bad thing here is that there is a blind spot for the line of sight on the rails, but it doesn't matter. The city lord has sent a patrol of nearly [-] people to guard it there. I don't think anything will happen."
Li An said casually, not knowing what to fear.
Zhu Di frowned after listening to Zhou, "It's a bit of a pity, but it's not bad to be able to build it like this, it's impossible to take into account all aspects."
Looking into the distance from here, the green grass waves are swaying in the wind, one after another, and even the sky is stained with blue, which makes people feel relaxed and happy, just as everyone is immersed in the natural scenery.
"Truly—"
A harsh thudding sound caught their attention.
Li An's face changed suddenly, and he was shocked and said: "This is the sound of a horn, there is an enemy attack!"
The others looked at each other in dismay, not understanding how the enemy would attack so well, and immediately surrounded them quietly, protecting Zhu Di in the center, "Protect the master and retreat."
Zhu Di was relatively calm, "Don't act rashly, let's go out and see the situation."
When Zhu Di and the others went downstairs, they saw that the streets were full of panicked people. They were in a hurry, and they hurriedly packed their things and hurried home. They were in a hurry, and some people even overturned their stalls.
When the stall was overturned, there was no need to seek compensation from the perpetrator. At this time, everyone was running around. Wherever they found it, they quickly grabbed a roll of bedding, picked up the rest of the things, and walked home.
"What's the matter? Could it be the call from the grassland."
"Impossible. We didn't sign a peace agreement. Besides, the grasslands can't be beaten. How could we be so stupid."
"The grassland can't beat us Daming, but it's more than enough to beat a few small cities like us. Hurry up and pack up first, go home and see the situation."
Although Duan Ansheng's peaceful days have passed, the vigilance of these people living in the border is still there, and it has almost become an instinct carved into their bones. After all, they were really harassed by those grassland bandits before.
Soon, there were only three or two cats left on the bustling street, and the rest were hiding at home and watching the change. If something really happened, they couldn't help much on the street. It is better to wait for orders at home.
"The prairie people are calling!"
I saw a person running over from the city gate, running in the direction of the city lord's mansion. I don't know if it was because of the speed or some reason, he fell in front of Zhu Di.
"what happened."
The man raised his head, and a face full of horror came into everyone's eyes. He looked very embarrassed, his eyes were cloudy, his face was disheveled, and his body was tattered. "Kill, kill a lot of people!"
He gestured with his hands, and his speech was incoherent and crazy.
Li An frowned and looked at him for a while before he said: "This is a lunatic in our city, who often wanders outside the city, or begging in the city, how could this be here.".
Chapter 318
"Now that the guards have all gathered, this is our world. Seize this opportunity and go get his mother's money before the prairie people come."
"Tell the brothers, cover up. Don't be seen."
"Grab the grain store first."
