Lin Wanrong stared blankly for a moment, then shook his head with a cold smile. "If the Turkic Khan said this to me, I would somewhat believe it. But Miss Yu Jia, you — — forgive me for being blunt, do you have the ability? "
Crescent Moon looked deeply into his eyes, saying indifferently, "You don't need to try to get information from me, how to convince the Khan is my business. But what Yu Jia said, she will definitely do. I promise you, from now on, my Turkic cavalry will not kill the women and children of China for no reason. Yu Jia asks the God of the grasslands to be my witness. "
Her expression was solemn and firm, her voice firm, and when she spoke of the God of the grasslands, her voice was even more sincere, her eyes flashing with a faint luster. To be able to swear on the God of the grasslands, it should not be a lie. Lin Wanrong was slightly taken aback. This Yu Jia's ability was far beyond his imagination. What was her identity? It seemed more and more mysterious.
The two people did not speak. The carriage suddenly quieted down, and the creaking of the wheels could be heard clearly. Yu Jia closed her eyes, her expression calm, her long eyelashes gently trembling with the carriage, as though she had fallen asleep.
With this interruption, Lin Wanrong's sleepiness had long disappeared without a trace. He simply lifted the curtain and got off the carriage, walking towards Gao Qiu and Yu Jia.
The grasslands in the night were quiet and serene. The sky was so close to the grasslands, as though the firmament was right above their heads. The bright stars strolled in the vast night sky, and the pale radiance shone on the faces of the knights. The torches were sparse, and the five thousand troops advanced through the night.
Gao Qiu held up a candle, illuminating the map in Hu Bugui's hands. "The Turkic tribes are far apart, and most of the able-bodied men have been transferred to the front lines. Therefore, even if the news of the attack on D 'Lanza reached the Turkic people, it will not be easy for them to mobilize enough forces to rush to D' Lanza. According to my estimation. The Turkic people will need at least one day and two nights to rush to D 'Lanza, and to understand the situation, it will take even longer. With so much time, and in this endless grasslands, even if the Turkic people have the ability to find us, it will not be easy. Heh heh, Old Gao, now we have a good fight! "
In tonight's battle, besides the women and children, more than four thousand Turks had been killed. On the other hand, they only lost a dozen or so people. More importantly, this was the first battle that China's cavalry had fought since they entered the grasslands. They had just revealed their fangs and were incomparably shocking. The officers and soldiers were full of enthusiasm, their morale was high, they wished that they could destroy ten more Hu camps in one go.
Old Gao laughed triumphantly. "Damn it. These Hu looked tall and strong, but how could they not be able to take a beating? Tonight, I only killed around thirty people, and they're all gone! Looking at those girls, I really can't do it. Looks like I'll just be a beast in my next life. "
Hu Bugui laughed twice and when he turned his head, he saw Lin Wanrong walking over while yawning.
"Hey, Brother Lin, have you slept with him?!" Gao Qiu winked and smiled mysteriously and wretchedly.
Seeing the lewd Old Gao, his worries instantly lessened. Lin Wanrong laughed. "What sleep? Am I such a vulgar person?! Brother Gao, you've only been pure for a few hours, why are you having a relapse? — — Brother Hu. What are you looking at?! "
Hu Bugui nodded. Pointing to the map, he smiled. "I am looking at the map with Brother Gao. According to our estimates, the first to receive the news and come to help should be the two tribes near Yiwu. Look, it's here, one is called Har Helin, the other is called Ejin. Strategist Xu has marked them on the map. "
Yiwu was located at the foot of the Time Luoman Mountains, next to the Sea of Death, Lop Nor, the natural boundary between the Alxa grasslands and the Sea of Death. And the two tribes that Hu Bugui mentioned were from the north to the south, in a straight line with Yiwu. Har Helin was still relatively far away, while the Ejin tribe was stationed around Yiwu. These two tribes and D 'Lanza were like three legs of a tripod, mutually supporting each other.
It was unknown how many times he had studied this map. Lin Wanrong was naturally familiar with it, and could draw the positions of several tribes with his eyes closed. He nodded slightly.
Hu Bugui said excitedly, "From the situation in D 'Lanza tonight, Har Helin and Ejin must also be two large tribes, their numbers will not be small, and it will be more enjoyable to fight. General, where should we choose our next target? "
Gao Qiu also looked at him expectantly. "Yes, brother Lin, quickly tell us, where should we attack next?!"
Ever since Hu Buhui had followed Lin Wanrong, he had been able to kill the Hu people as easily as chopping vegetables. This had given him absolute trust and admiration for Lin Wanrong. It was as if with Lin Wanrong, all suffering would no longer exist. Knowing that the two tribes near Yiwu were not weak, he was still full of confidence.
Lin Wanrong said with a wry smile, "Big brothers, do you think I'm an immortal, pointing to where I can attack?!"
"Brother Lin, you're not an immortal — —" Gao Qiu said seriously, "— — which immortal can compare to you?!"
Old Gao's flattery skills had improved a lot! Lin Wanrong shook his head with a smile, and said seriously, "In fact, to tell you the truth, these few tribes, I really haven't decided which one to attack first. Not to mention other things, right now I don't even know their scale and specific location, I can't attack even if I want to. "
This was the truth, even an immortal could not fight a battle unprepared. It was too arbitrary to ask General Lin to make a decision before the situation was clear. Hu Bugui laughed a few times in embarrassment, a look of shame on his face. Old Gao was used to being shameless, and his face did not even turn red.
"But — — what brother Hu said is right." Lin Wanrong paused for a moment, then nodded. "If we want to help D 'Lanza, these are the closest tribes. It's not hard to choose, I'll attack whoever sends troops to D 'Lanza! "
Gao Qiu suddenly understood. "Yes, yes, while their nest is empty, we'll sneak attack them."
"But, our target is Yiwu — —" Hu Bugui frowned.
Lin Wanrong nodded seriously. "Yes, our ultimate target is Yiwu, but this secret, only the three of us know, the Hu will never know. In their eyes, we're a lone army deep in the grasslands, fighting to fight, and after fighting, we'll run away. Our goal is to break the morale of the Turks. If we set our sights on Yiwu from the start, it will arouse their suspicion and cause unnecessary trouble. Before we enter Yiwu, we'll fight a few good battles, which will ease their minds. What's real and what's fake, what's real and what's fake, we'll lead the Turks by the nose and make them furious — — except for ourselves, no one knows what we're going to do. "
"That means. There are a lot of battles to fight?! "Gao Qiu asked excitedly.
"Basically." A vicious glint flashed across Lin Wanrong's eyes as he waved his hand and chuckled, "If possible, I would like to uproot all of these tribes and see what the Turks can do to me."
With that said, everyone's hearts immediately lit up. Seeing General Lin's ambition, Hu Bugui nodded excitedly. "Good. That's how it should be, I pledge my life to follow you. "
Lin Wanrong patted him on the shoulder with a smile and sighed. "Actually, what I'm most worried about now. It's not the tribes near Yiwu, but the twenty thousand Turkic cavalry that we tricked into going to Wuyuan. "
Hu Bugui was shocked. If Lin Wanrong hadn't mentioned it, he would have almost forgotten about it. "General. "General, you're worried that after they see through our plan, they'll turn back and attack us?!"
Lin Wanrong nodded. "They're here for me, they'll definitely turn back, it's just a matter of time. Fortunately, I held back! "
Looking at his sneaky smile. Hu Bugui could not help asking, "What hold back?!"
"Brother Hu Bugui, have you forgotten?!" Lin Wanrong blinked. "We released three thousand women and children tonight. They're heading towards Bayanhaote — — "
Gao Qiu blinked his eyes, exclaiming, "I understand, these twenty thousand Turks have been running for days, they're hungry and haggard. Brother Lin, you're going to use these three thousand hungry women and children to drag them down. They won't be able to get rid of you, and they won't be able to. You've also spread your name — — Amazing, really amazing! "
Lin Wanrong raised his hand and smiled. "There's an expert among these twenty thousand cavalry. A few days ago, they almost exposed our scheme. Maybe this time he'll suspect the purpose of releasing the people, and will think of something. It won't last for more than a few days. It's better than nothing. "
The few of them joked for a while. Their minds were set. They traveled a hundred miles in one breath, before setting up camp. It was almost the second watch of the night.
Lin Wanrong had already realized that Yu Jia's identity was extraordinary, and he guarded her especially closely. When the tent was set up. Without hesitation, he pulled her into his tent.
Yu Jia's expression changed, angrily scolding, "What are you doing?! Don't touch me. "
"If I really wanted to touch you, what would you do?!" Lin Wanrong looked him up and down, grinning. "Bite your tongue? Hang yourself? Or commit suicide?! "
Thinking of what this bandit had threatened him, Yu Jia gritted his teeth, his face pale, and did not make a sound for a long time.
Lin Wanrong disdainfully raised his hand. "Are all humans beasts in your eyes? I'm too lazy to talk to you! Now there's a camp bed, and a wide grassland, where are you going to sleep?! "
"I'm not going anywhere, I have my own carriage — —" Yu Jia said angrily.
"Carriage?!" Lin Wanrong snorted. He took out a golden scimitar, the one he took from Yu Jia's hand when he was tying her up. He waved the shining blade in front of the Turkic girl's face and coldly said, "I forgot to tell you, Miss Yu Jia. Your carriage was commandeered by my injured brother. "
Yu Jia was so angry that his face turned pale when he saw him waving the golden saber in front of him. "Give me back my golden saber! You — you barbaric Chinese! "
"Barbaric?! Am I more barbaric than the Turkic people?! " Lin Wanrong snickered and raised the blade. The sharp blade cut off a strand of hair beside Yu Jia's ear. He said fiercely, "Since I'm in a good mood, I'll ask you again. Miss Yu Jia, are you going to sleep on the grass or the bed?! If you don't answer, you will sleep on the back of a horse tonight! "
"You think Yu Jia is afraid of you?!" The Turkic girl glared at him and gritted her teeth, "I'll sleep on the bed!"
"Hmm, you have good eyes, you know that I've slept on this bed before! Fine, let's sleep together, let's sleep together! " Before the bandit could finish his words, the Turkic girl exclaimed in shock, "I don't sleep on a man's bed, I, I'll sleep on the grass!"
Lin Wanrong laughed, "It's rare for you to be so considerate and have the awareness of a prisoner. Fine, the grass is yours. Really, I've never seen a girl take the initiative to sleep on the grass, it's hard not to agree! "
Was this person a hero of China or a scoundrel of China?! Yu Jia was pushed to the limit by him, and her mind fell into a daze. In the past few days, she had the upper hand at first, but later on, the two of them fought to a draw, and after that, the China bandits took the initiative. This black-faced bandit seemed to be stronger than the weak, and even stronger than the strong. It was hard to fathom.
Lin Wanrong stretched lazily and yawned a few times. Then, he plopped down on the camp bed and let out a long breath. He paid no attention to the Turkic girl beside him, as if she was air.
The camp tents were only there to shelter them from the wind and rain, and the ground was still bare. Yu Jia gritted her teeth as she lay on the grass. A bone-chilling cold seeped into her body through her thin silk dress, causing her to shiver uncontrollably. Even the strongest person wouldn't be able to endure sleeping on this kind of grass for a night.
She couldn't help but glance at Lin Wanrong, only to see that the bandit was lying on the bed, his hands still gripping the golden saber that originally belonged to him. His eyes were closed, and his breathing was even. He was actually slowly falling asleep.
As long as this bandit didn't do anything bad, it was already a blessing from the god of the grassland. What else could he ask for? The Turkic girl's eyes were moist, and she suppressed the grievance in her heart. She clenched her fists, stubbornly gritted her teeth, and slowly closed her eyes …
