Chang'an is quiet at night. Chang'an people have long been accustomed to staying behind closed doors after the sound of drums in quiet streets. In this era, there are no TVs and mobile phones. Except for the wealthy families who sometimes hold a "joyful" dinner, most people go to bed early. Now, even the military camp is no exception. Except for a few people sitting in front of the bonfire to watch the night, all the other tents are snoring like thunder...
In addition to the sound of insects and snoring, the eyelids of the exaggerated night watchman of the military camp gradually drooped. When the general on night watch saw such a scene, he just muttered and walked past. Is there anything in Chang'an City that is worthy of keeping a vigil?
But such a quiet scene was soon broken by a group of people. On the street, Chai Shao pulled Bai Tiwu and ran very fast!
The poor white-hoofed blackbird has uncomfortable hooves. Just a moment ago, he was chewing hay in the stable. In the blink of an eye, he was pulled forward and ran wildly. How fast can a three-legged horse run? But Chai Shao didn't care, and dragged the white-tied crow forward so hard that the poor horse's tongue almost came out!
One man and one horse fled away, followed closely by Shimin and the few remaining strong men. Even Xue Shou, who was as weak as a scholar, was not left behind. Only Xiao Han was panting like a dog. If it weren't for Zhang Qiang, If you pull him, he will fall to the ground!
What a bunch of animals! The golden roasted lamb had just been brought to the table. Xiao Han didn't even have time to smell the alluring aroma before he was dragged out by Zhang Qiang. At least these people knew that going to the blacksmith shop at this time was too troublesome and not conducive. Keeping it secret, a group of people rushed over to the military camp!
At the gate of the camp, the semi-confused sentry just yawned. He looked around with drooped eyelids. He saw a dark hole, except for the chirping of insects and the only sound left was the sound of grunting... He stretched out and found a comfortable position to lean against the wood. On the fence, I closed my eyes and was just thinking about chatting with Duke Zhou when I heard a rush of footsteps that broke the tranquility of the night.
"What's going on? Who?"
The sentry was not a newbie either. When he heard something was wrong, he immediately jumped up. His eyes that had been unable to open just a moment ago suddenly opened wide and he looked hard towards the place where the sound came from!
The footsteps are getting closer and closer, and among the scattered footsteps, there is also a very strange sound of horse hooves. Normally, the sound of horse hooves is a "da da da da" sound, but it is strange today!
The sound of horse hooves is "ta da... da!" The sound of two light and one heavy sounds is particularly strange at night!
The sentry couldn't see how many people there were in the darkness. Just when he was about to reach out and strike the golden gong, a captain rushed over from behind, grabbed the gong and hammer with his hands, and at the same time gave the sentry a fierce look!
Didn’t you see His Highness King Qin’s BMW and Chief Chai Shao in front of you? Blind? You still dare to bang the gong rashly. If the camp is bombed, who can afford it? !
The soldier was so stared at by the captain that he was sweating all over his body. At this time, he also saw the white-hoofed crow in front of him. Although the white-hoofed crow jumped like a toad today, Supervisor Chai Shao next to him was really serious. !
Wiping the sweat from his head, the sentry quickly followed the captain down to open the door for Manager Chai Shao. He almost made a big mistake just now. If he doesn't work harder now, he will be killed by this nagging boss tonight...
Seeing that the gate of the camp was open, Chai Shao rushed into the camp at almost a galloping speed. The captain was carrying the wooden gate and was still thinking about why he didn't ride a horse and insisted on running with him. Suddenly he saw behind him Another group of people rushed over!
"Damn it, who is it! Are you going crazy tonight?"
The captain cursed in his heart, even if you are the general manager, but the emperor has just said that entry and exit are not allowed, you just break into the military camp at night in such an open and aboveboard manner. This is too disrespectful to the emperor, and might even harm him!
"Damn it, if you are just a little miscellaneous fish, I have to lock you out today and reflect on it!!"
Secretly making up their mind, the captain and the sentry next to him opened their eyes wide and waited for the arrival of this group of people!
Because of the lights burning at the camp gate, it took more than ten steps in front of the camp gate to see who was coming. When Chai Shao had already rushed into the camp, a group of people from behind came roaring towards him. The captain's eyes widened with excitement. When I looked carefully, my eyes almost popped out! Oh my god, this little miscellaneous fish is actually the King of Qin!
"General Sun Qi meets His Highness the King of Qin!"
He stared at this group of people with his eyes wide open, and the captain didn't say anything about shutting them out!
Without saying a word, he immediately cupped his fists and saluted, but King Qin, who was always known for his courtesy to virtuous subordinates, rushed in directly with Chai Shao behind him this time without saying a word, which made the captain feel disappointed...
Not only did King Qin not stop, several big men behind him also ran past him in a gust of wind. Finally, a young man who ran like a dog was dragged in out of breath...
"What on earth happened? Can anyone tell me?" The captain held the camp door and innocently looked at the sentry next to him, but the sentry looked at him with an even more innocent look: "How do I know what happened? Already?"
The army is stationed in a very orderly manner. Generally speaking, the combat troops are in the front, and the auxiliary and logistical forces are in the middle or behind. Chai Shao is the director of the army, and wherever the blacksmith is, he is Menqing! After entering the camp gate, without turning a single corner, he led a group of people and rushed towards the rear army without stopping.
I don’t know how many sleeping people I woke up along the way. I hurriedly arrived at the rear army. A man with a beard who was traveling with me immediately rushed into a tent, followed by several scoldings and complaints. A shirtless and stocky blacksmith was driven out like a duck by a man!
Making a fire and burning iron, several blacksmiths were flying up and down with sledgehammers in their hands. They all showed off their special skills. If it weren't for the anxious look on King Qin's face, the blacksmiths would have done a trick to open Xiao Han's eyes. !
Oh my god, the King of Qin personally came to see the old man forging iron. How long can he continue to play? ! It’s just our face! I am willing to be exhausted today!
It was time for a cup of tea. Really, Xiao Han didn't even catch his breath. Four horseshoes emitting white smoke were placed in front of him. Several blacksmiths still looked like they were still unfinished, with twinkling eyes. , seems to want to give another sword to their commander.
Xiao Han, who had finally rested, got up from the ground, stacked a few horseshoes together, squatted down and took a closer look. The group of people behind them all followed suit and squatted down to take a look. As for what they were looking at? who cares! Didn’t you see that King Qin and Chai Shao were almost crowded together?
Four horseshoes are stacked together, regardless of size, thickness, and even the small holes in the middle are round and smooth. It is hard to imagine that they are all made by hand!
"Okay! Awesome!" Xiao Han stood up and gave a thumbs up in admiration. The eyes of several blacksmiths were so praised that they were reduced to slits. If he hadn't been afraid of being rude in front of King Qin, he would have laughed loudly by now!
The blacksmith didn't laugh loudly, but the white-hoofed crow screamed in horror! Its underdeveloped brain couldn't figure out why these people put it in such a strange posture...
The four wooden stakes as thick as bowls were driven into the ground by the team leader who came after hearing the news. The soldiers had no chance to play! The three legs of the poor white-hoofed crow were tied to wooden stakes, and only the injured leg did not know whether to lift or put it down...
Instructing the blacksmith to drive a few nails, Xiao Han came to Bai Ti Wu with a very "serious" expression, pointed at a few corps commanders who raised their heads and held their chests high, trying hard to show off in front of King Qin. The commander said: "Guys , lift its hooves!"
Several low-level officers were confused about Xiao Han's identity, but seeing that he was walking next to the King of Qin, he must be an important person, so without saying a word, they grabbed the hoof of the white-tied crow and stretched it in front of Xiao Han.
The white hoofed crow literally means a black body and snow-white hooves. Of course, this is also the case. There is a ring of white hair on all four horse hooves, which looks very eye-catching in the dark coat color!
Only now did Xiao Han finally know why he gave this horse such a strange name. He looked at the long snow-white hair on the horse's hooves and blurted out: "Drink! Dark clouds are treading on the snow!"
Zhang Qiang was holding a knife behind him. Seeing that Xiao Han had not yet performed a miracle, he immediately became unhappy and put the big knife into Xiao Han's arms. "Stop dragging the article. I have read enough. Hurry up!"
"Oh, country bear!" Xiao Han looked at Zhang Qiang with great contempt, and started to measure it with a big knife. No matter how stupid the poor white-tied crow was, he knew that the man in front of him was not like a good guy with a snow-white big knife, twisting it The neck screamed desperately, and the raised front hooves were also trying to retract back. It was a pity that the arrogant man in the army had nothing else, but he had a lot of strength. With several big hands working hard together, he was stunned and couldn't hold the white hoof. move!
Xiao Han held the knife in one hand and touched the horse's hoof with the other. The horse's hoof had been severely worn due to running all year round, and there was a diagonal crack in the middle. Although it was not deep, it had seriously affected the horse's walking!
After telling the people in front of him that he would not let go until he was beaten to death, Xiao Han held the knife in both hands with confidence and began to cut from the bottom of the horse's hoof.
However, Xiao Han's knife skills were really unsightly. Seeing Bai Ti Wu's violent struggle, Little Li Zi couldn't bear to watch. He stabbed Chai Shao next to him. Chai Shao understood and stepped forward to take Xiao Han's hand. After using the knife, I asked how it was done. After a few cuts, the horse's hoof was cut extremely smooth!
Sure enough, professional things should be left to professionals. Xiao Han immediately applauded and handed the horseshoe to Chai Shao, "Brother Chai, come and put this on..."
Chai Shao took the horse's shoe blankly. He didn't know why he suddenly became a small worker, but looking at the anxious expressions of the people next to him, he might as well do it...
The horseshoe was measured onto the horse's hoof, the nails were driven into the reserved holes, and the other legs were done in the same way. When all was completed, the horse's legs were released, and Baitiwu tried to take a few steps on the ground. The horseshoe made a crisp ticking sound when it stepped on the ground. Little Plum's eyes had turned from black to red, and then from red to green!
"Everyone, stay back!!! Everyone present is not allowed to leave! Seal this place! Anyone who dares to escape will be killed without mercy!"
Following the roar of General Chai Shao, the scene immediately became chaotic. Several blacksmiths who had just been showing off their power immediately squatted under the stove, and the corps commanders and other commanders were immediately organized into a row by Zhang Qiang, and all of them were led by Zhang Qiang. When they reached the side, the soldiers watching nearby squatted directly on the ground!
Li Shimin next to him was so excited that his whole body was shaking like chaff. After shivering for a long time, he finally remembered the importance of confidentiality!
He reached out and called a strong man who was eating with him. He didn't know what he said in his ear. He saw that the man's face turned pale immediately, then he nodded fiercely and ran out of the camp. !
Xiao Han never thought that just for a few horseshoes, he could cause such a commotion. Looking at the looks in the eyes of the people next to him, they probably had murderous intentions! Thinking of those novels and TV shows that would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one person go, I feel a chill in my heart!
"I won't kill Boren, but Boren will die because of me!"
Xiao Han thinks that he is not a gentleman, but he is not a villain either. He has never killed a chicken in his previous life, but this time he has implicated so many people at once! I hope Li Shimin is as kind as in history. If so many people are involved because of him, how will he deal with himself?
Thinking of this, Xiao Han's pride suddenly turned cold. He quickly stepped forward and came to Li Shimin. He raised his hands and said nervously: "Your Highness, King Qin, this thing is too simple. We can't block the news. They just need to catch one." Horses can be imitated at a glance, I think what we can do now is to quickly install all our own horses and get a head start!"
