Hu Liang and the other three came out of the Great Lun Mansion happily.
Chen Hua saw the excitement on the three people's faces and couldn't help but stepped forward and asked, "What's the result? I see how happy you are."
"Sure enough, Zhaojiazhuang is so powerful that we merchants can finally enjoy the treatment of guests." Hu Liang bowed respectfully and said with sincere admiration.
Pu Da also bowed respectfully: "I didn't expect that the great talk would make us drunk."
"The price is better than that in Lanzhou. Woolen clothes and trousers are three taels of silver, gloves and socks are one or two pairs. A box of clam oil is two taels of gold." Meng Lang said in a tone of disbelief.
Meng Lang didn't believe this was true until he saw the guards of Da Lun Mansion putting the gold and silver in boxes.
Seeing Chen Hua's incredible look, Pu Da looked at Qinghai Lake in the distance and explained: "There is a lot of green salt here, and every toast is so fat, let alone talking about these people."
"The Tubo people in Xining have money, but only if they like to give." Hu Liang said quietly.
Pu Da had the same feeling: "For example, Zamp, he is obviously rich, but why is the price so low? I really don't know what he wants to do with so much money. Does he want to take it into the fields?"
"No one thinks it's too much money. Maybe he has to support the soldiers, the court, and maybe the lama?" Xu Tong nodded and expressed his thoughts.
"Perhaps Zanpu still has the ambition to unify the plateau and restore the old Tubo ambition." Chen Hua thought for a while and said something earth-shattering.
Pu Da agreed with Chen Hua: "This Zamp is only in his twenties, which is when he is young and energetic."
At this point, the ground suddenly shook and made a rumbling sound.
Meng Lang looked shocked and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Cavalry."
Xu Te looked at the trembling direction of the ground from the avenue. They were on the east avenue, while the cavalry was on the west avenue.
To the east was the direction of Zanpu, and Xu Te and others hurriedly looked to the west.
Xu Te, Chen Hua, Meng Lang, and Yun Shuchen took out their clairvoyance and looked toward the west avenue.
The rest of the people did not have clairvoyance, so they had no choice but to keep their eyes wide open and look.
"These cavalry are obviously different from the Hu people, and their weapons and armor are very different." Xu Te said while looking at them.
Chen Hua observed while saying: "Running towards us is obviously aimed at us."
They saw only more than a mile away, they were cavalry wearing willow leaf armor and holding spears, scimitars, swords, and bows and arrows.
Since on the street, you can only see a row of cavalry a few hundred steps ahead, but the number of cavalry is unknown.
But hearing this sound, at least a thousand.
"It seems that Zanpu knew that they were doing business with Da Lun, not Zanpu. He felt very uncomfortable. Now he is going to investigate." Yun Shuchen nodded, and his words were agreed by others.
Chen Hua was worried: "This Zanpu has sent out so many cavalry, and they are also elite soldiers. It is obviously not as simple as raising an army to investigate the crime."
"When the soldiers come, they will cover up the water and the earth." After saying this, Xu Te stepped on the stirrups and got on his horse. "Everyone mount up."
Chen Hua and others did not dare to neglect, and they all immediately got on their horses.
Boom, boom, boom, the cavalry came closer and closer.
Finally, the cavalry got closer and closer. The cavalry in front moved out of the way, and Xu Te saw an officer in his early twenties coming out.
He raised his whip, pointed at Xu Te and shouted loudly: "Wuna Nanman, keep the treasure."
"The villain is polite, may I ask who the general is?" Although the visitor was rude, Xu Te was still polite and displayed the courtesy of the Han people to the fullest.
The young general looked at Xu Te. Instead of taking back the riding crop in his hand, he pointed at him and shouted loudly: "Nanman, how dare you look at Ben Zamp and take your life?"
It turns out that this person is Zamp, but he is so young and about the same age as Xu Te.
"You're not a woman, why can't you see it?" Xu Te ignored him and immediately fought back.
Anyway, I have already offended him, so I am not afraid of offending the other party more.
"How dare you speak to Ben Zamp like this? I'll take it down for you. It's a matter of life and death." When his subordinates were slapped in the face by Xu Te, Songyu Zamp was so angry that he was trembling with anger and yelled at his subordinates.
Immediately behind him came a general of about thirty or so, pointing the spear in his hand and shouting: "Kill this group of Southern Barbarians."
Xu Te couldn't help being furious. The other party was too barbaric and domineering. He wanted to kill someone just because he looked at him.
He took out his storm horn and blew it.
Upon hearing the charge, all the merchants suddenly drew their weapons.
These weapons were either Hu-killing knives or Hu-breaking knives, and they rushed over as soon as they caught the horse's belly.
Although Song Yu directed his men to attack, he kept looking at Xu Te.
Seeing Xu Te actually take out a treasure he had never seen before, the greed in his eyes deepened.
If he had just said peace in anger, now he was determined to kill this group of Nanman and keep all the treasures in their hands.
He couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the other party suddenly measuring out weapons.
However, he couldn't help but sneer when he found that the opponent was just a scimitar and had no iron armor on him.
Based on these alone, his side has the upper hand.
Songyu has absolute confidence in his soldiers and horses, which are semi-heavy cavalry soldiers and horses that he spent a lot of money to build.
Because the Tubo cavalry not only had willow leaf armor, but also had spears that were taller than men.
Just with these equipments, they can surely win.
Boom, boom, boom, the distance between the two sides is getting farther and farther.
Xu Te rushed forward. Although he did not have iron armor, he still had leather armor on his body.
However, because the outer garment is a robe, it cannot be seen for a while.
Xu Te's opponent was Long Chen, the Tubo general. He couldn't help laughing when he saw that the opponent was a scimitar.
"Nanman, suffer death." Long Chen shouted, and with the nearly one-foot spear in his hand, he stabbed Xu Te at the right target.
The head of his spear was made of iron, and although the shaft was made of wood, it was wrapped with copper to maximize its sturdiness.
With a clang, the scimitar in Xu Te's hand slashed straight at the opponent's spear.
His target was not the spearhead, but the shaft.
Xu Te was not sure about cutting off the spearhead.
If he cannot cut off the opponent's spear, he may be stabbed by the opponent.
So he used all his strength to slash at the spear shaft.
With a bang, the opponent suddenly felt his hand lighten, and the spear in his hand broke into two pieces, and the spearhead fell to the ground.
Long Chen was shocked and realized that the opponent was an extremely sharp sword. He hurriedly threw the spear shaft in his hand at it.
The sword in Xu Te's hand was slashing towards the spear shaft. At this time, Long Chen's scimitar had been drawn out, and the two sides immediately started fighting with a clanging sound.
Chen Hua led a group of his men, brandishing their killing knives, and rushed towards Songyu Zampu: "Tubo barbarian, don't hide behind others. You are not a hero. I'm here to meet you."
He planned to use a tactic of capturing the thief first, and a group of war horses rushed in front of Song Yu.
He is a Zamp, and if he shows weakness, it will have a huge impact on morale.
"The Nanman wants to die, I will protect you from this." Song Yu showed weakness and stabbed Chen Hua with the spear in his hand.
As long as the spear is stabbed, the body will definitely be a bloody hole.
Chen Hua smiled coldly, saw the opponent's coming, and slashed towards the pole with the killing knife in his hand.
When Song Yu saw that the other party was cutting at his straw pole, he didn't dare to be careless. He quickly turned around and pointed at Chen Hua's war horse.
Chen Hua pinched the horse, and the horse spun in circles. The Hu-killing knife in his hand continued to target the opponent's pole.
Boom, boom, boom, more and more cavalry came from the west.
Brother Ji stood in front of the window on the fourth floor, watching the battle between the two sides with his men attentively.
He has no plans to send troops yet, he is just watching the battle.
The reason why Song Yu became Zan Pu was because he was a descendant of Gsisi Luo, and he was supported by the Tubo people.
In fact, brother and Marshal Tongpingzhang Lajia did not cause Songyu to become Zampu. The reason was that Songyu was cruel, young, shallow, and had no prestige.
However, Songyu was supported by the Hu people, and the supporter was none other than the Pingzhang political minister Shamen Bochanbu (religious leader) Jia Luo Lama.
Brother Ji didn't know anything about Jialuo Lama's plan.
Brother Mingming is obviously stronger than Songyu in every aspect, but why does Jialuo support Songyu?
It's just because it's not easy to be relaxed in all aspects and it's easy to control.
And Songyu was even more grateful for the support of the Great Lama Jialuo, and could almost obey him.
With the participation of lamas in politics, officials such as Da Lun and marshal became increasingly sidelined.
Not only that, lamas are even more powerful in controlling the minds of civilians and slaves.
Nowadays, lamas are becoming more and more powerful in Tubo, and they tend to dominate the imperial court.
The reason why Songyu is cruel is actually inseparable from the great lamas like Jialuo.
After all, Songyu was just having a small fight, but these lamas were directly sacrificing living people and using their bones as magical weapons.
The civilians and slaves who were killed by the monks not only did not resist, but instead thanked the lama for helping them practice Taoism and escape from suffering.
Under the lama's propaganda, ordinary people feel that everything they have in this life is reincarnated and has nothing to do with hard work. Nothing they do in this life can change their destiny and origin, and they accept this fate very much.
They are indifferent to their own lives, as if they were born low and don't care how they are ravaged. They only want to work hard to worship Buddha in this life and enjoy the glory and wealth in the next life.
They even think that as much as they suffer in this life, they will be rich in the next life, and as miserable as they are in this life, they will be rich in the next life, so they abuse themselves all day long and are willing to be abused by others.
If others help him, give him food, clothing, and study, they still think that those people delay their hard work, are "demons" that prevent them from practicing Buddhism devoutly, and tempt them.
Even if the lama chops off their hands and feet and skins their wives, children, and biological parents, they all think it is natural.
The lama not only controls the court, but also controls the common people and slaves. How can you let the court officials such as Goji and Lajia live?
Now this small Tubo kingdom has formed two factions, one is Lama and Zampu, and the other is officials such as Goji and Lhajia.
Brother Ji observed the battlefield, and now some changes were taking place.
A captain named Heixuan, about forty years old, with many cavalry, rushed past Xu Te and Chen Hua. Their target was the gold, silver and jewelry of the security group.
The other party has a large number of people, and its number is several times that of the caravan.
Boom, boom, boom, the Tibetan cavalry is getting closer and closer.
Three hundred steps, two hundred and fifty steps, two hundred steps.
The soldiers and horses of the Kingdom of Israel have not been involved in the attack for the time being. Their main duty is to guard the money and prisoners of war.
Although the hands and feet of these Hu prisoners were tied, there were many of them, at least hundreds.
Therefore, while the cavalry of the Kingdom of Israel was guarding, they also felt that their task was not light.
When they saw the Tibetan cavalry rushing over, they were so frightened that they lost their countenance.
Using a razor-sharp knife to cut down the enemy was just a training exercise; they had not yet truly fought against the enemy.
Now they saw the Tibetan cavalry holding spears and wearing willow leaf armor rushing over, and they couldn't help but tremble all over.
Yun Shuchen, the chief of the Kingdom's cavalry, was very calm. He held the killing knife tightly in his hand and looked at the Tubo cavalry without blinking.
Meng Lang, the Minister of War of the Kingdom of Israel, has now lost his prestige in front of the soldiers of the Kingdom due to his last command failure.
His replacement was naturally Chief Booker Yun Shuchen, who had already proven himself against the barbarian archers last time.
It seemed that it would be impossible without using a big weapon. Yun Shuchen, the chief secretary of the Kingdom of Israel, took out his crossbow and whistled in his mouth at the same time.
"Get ready for the crossbow." Yun Shuchen whistled and took out the crossbow after saying that.
The kingdom's cavalry were so successful that they all eagerly took out their crossbows from the pockets on their horses.
Yun Shuchen's eyes were fixed on the Tubo cavalry. One hundred and fifty steps away, a whistle suddenly blew violently: "Launch, launch."
After he finished speaking, he whistled and hung on the front of his neck with a rope.
Brush, brush, brush, brush, brush, row after row of crossbow arrows were fired from the Kingdom Cavalry.
The row of Tibetan cavalry who rushed at the front were caught off guard and fell down one after another.
Hei Xuan waved his spear desperately while shouting: "Use the spear, spear."
Tubo saw this later and hurriedly waved his spear to block the kingdom's crossbow arrows.
Along with the clanging sound, crossbow arrows were being swept across the ground.
Some Tibetan cavalry fell, but more Tibetan cavalry advanced while waving their spears.
Stomp, stomp, stomp, the Tubo cavalry got closer and closer, and were less than a hundred steps away from them.
"Shoot the horse." Yun Shuchen's voice was extremely calm.
A Tibetan cavalryman was waving his spear when he suddenly felt his horse stumble and he fell heavily from the horse's back. It turned out that the war horse had been shot in the leg.
A Tibetan cavalryman brandished a spear and suddenly became violent. It turned out that the horse was hit in the face by a crossbow arrow.
This one actually collided with another war horse. As a result, both horses and the Tibetan soldiers fell to the ground.
The horse of a Tibetan cavalry suddenly stood up and tried to throw its owner off. It turned out that the horse was shot in the eye.
The sound of "咴咴", "咴咴" was heard continuously, and war horses and Tibetan cavalry kept falling down one after another.
Forming a wall of dead and injured flesh one after another, it was composed of dead and wounded horses and Tibetan soldiers.
They fell on the street, groaning.
Some Tibetan cavalry cleverly avoided the crossbows and got closer and closer, reaching a distance of fifty steps.
Yun Shuchen almost didn't need to look accurately and shot the crossbow arrow based on his feeling.
The war horse screamed and fell down.
There were still a dozen Tubo cavalry rushing over, less than thirty steps away from Yun Shuchen.
Yun Shuchen pressed the wrench, and there was an empty click. There was no crossbow arrow. It turned out that the crossbow arrow had been fired unknowingly.
He put the arm-length crossbow into his pocket, drew out his Hu-killing knife, and shouted loudly: "Kill."
The general was the soul of the soldiers. Behind him, a dozen cavalry soldiers from the security regiment led by the kingdom's cavalry also drew their swords and rushed towards the Tubo soldiers.
Tap, tap, tap, the horses from both sides rushed together fiercely.
It was a Tubo about forty years old, and it seemed that he should be a Tubo general.
His face was filled with a ferocious smile, and the spear in his hand was pointed at Yun Shuchen again.
Yun Shuchen did not move away, but aimed at the opponent's pole and chopped it down hard.
The general couldn't help but be surprised. He couldn't fight hard because his thatched pole was made of wood inside and just a layer of copper outside.
This general was Hei Xuan, and he had no choice but to retract his spear.
Seeing that the opponent actually flinched, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. The sword could never leave the opponent's pole, which was the opponent's fatal weakness.
Seeing a steady stream of Tubo cavalry coming from behind, Meng Lang waved his hand to let the Kingdom cavalry behind him rush forward.
But they didn't pull out their killing knives at this time, shouted and rushed forward.
Instead, he still picked up the crossbow and continued shooting.
Although the generals leading the security team had already rushed forward, their group of new recruits did not have the courage yet.
Although they also have shabu knives, they are not confident in fighting the enemy face to face.
They also have confidence, but it is based on the strength of their arms.
"Brush, brush, brush," crossbow arrows kept shooting from the crossbow.
Meng Lang divided the 500 kingdom cavalry into ten rows. After the first volley was fired, the second row came up. After shooting through, he immediately added arrows, and so on.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, war horses and Tibetan cavalry kept falling.
More and more Tubo cavalry fell, and eventually they formed hills one after another.
After Long Chen and Xu Te fought for more than ten moves, they suddenly felt the light of the scimitar in their hands.
Xu Te couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that the scimitar in Long Chen's hand had been broken into two pieces.
How could he miss such an opportunity? He slashed at the opponent with the killing knife in his hand.
Long Chen was shocked and turned pale. He threw half of the scimitar in his hand, turned around and ran away as soon as he pulled his horse.
Xu Te cut off half of the scimitar thrown by the opponent. He did not expect that the opponent, an upright general, would run away like this.
How did he know that this Tubo was no longer the Tubo of the former Tang Dynasty, and his willpower and fighting power were no match for them.
What's more, his weapons are obviously inferior to his opponent's, and if he continues to fight, he will only lose his life.
In this case, it is better to escape and save one life.
Xu Te shook his head. There was a flag bearer not far away, and he was holding the flag of the King of Tibet.
He couldn't help but be overjoyed, and with the new soldiers, he rushed towards Wang Qi fiercely.
A centurion tried his best to stop him, and stabbed Xu Te with the spear in his hand.
Xu Te had already seen the weakness of the spear, shouted loudly, and slashed towards the spear shaft with his killing knife.
The centurion wanted to retract the spear shaft, but with the king's flag behind him, he could not retreat.
He also shouted loudly, and instead of moving back the spear in his hand, he continued to move forward.
The centurion planned to lose both sides and die together with the other party.
Bang bang, Xu Te killed Hu Dao even faster, and the opponent's spear was instantly cut in half.
Seeing that something was wrong, the centurion immediately threw half of the spear shaft over and tried to pull out his scimitar.
Xu Te smiled coldly. Before he could pull out the weapon, the killing knife in his hand had already slashed towards his neck.
The centurion let out a scream, his neck was cut in two, and blood spurted all over Xu Te.
Xu Te didn't care about this and immediately rushed to the flag bearer. Where could he snatch the flag bearer?
He held the king's flag in his left hand and slashed at Xu Te desperately with the scimitar in his right hand.
This man was so powerful that he actually held a royal flag in one hand and a scimitar in the other and slashed at Xu Te.
Amidst the clanging sounds, the two of them exchanged blows less than three times before the scimitar in his hand was cut off by Xu Te, the ruthless knife.
Xu Te's Hu-killing knife is different from ordinary Hu-killing knives. The edge of his knife is added with manganese, which is of course sharper.
In desperation, the flag-bearer threw the scimitar half in his right hand at Xu Te, but Xu Te knocked him away.
The flag-bearer took the opportunity and swept the king's flag fiercely towards Xu Te, trying to sweep Xu Te off his horse.
Xu Te smiled coldly, reached out and grabbed Wang Qi, and at the same time slashed the opponent's arm with the killing knife in his hand.
Seeing that his arm was in danger, the flag bearer had no choice but to let go.
Xu Te took the king's flag and shouted: "Zanpu is dead, Zanpu is dead."
"Zamp is dead, Zamp is dead." His soldiers also shouted.
Later, all the security guards and soldiers of the kingdom shouted like this.
