The place where the black-clad Ottomans bordered the Turkic steppes.
A caravan of hundreds of people marched slowly towards the nearest Ottoman city.
In the caravan, there was a young man dressed in brocade clothes. He was shaking his fan and humming a tune on the carriage. He looked like a playboy to anyone who looked at him.
However, with his appearance and thin arms and legs, he doesn't have much strength. He can only be used as a young man to stretch out his hands, open his mouth and have no strength to restrain a chicken.
But when the young man saw another group of Ottoman cavalry appearing next to him and surrounding him, a gleam flashed in his eyes.
These Ottoman cavalry were also elite, much more elite than the black-clad soldiers. No wonder they were able to completely destroy Rome.
"Wait, why did such knowledge pop up in my mind again? How strange! Do I have the ability to predict the future?"
The young master in the carriage sat up straight after mocking himself, fixed the hair that was a little dazzled by the wind again, and revealed his original face. Wasn't he the one who established a tribe on the grassland with Sun Ning and Sun Xiaoning? Who is Xu Yunyan?
Seemingly seeing Xu Yunyan sitting up, Maimaiti, who was acting as an errand boy next to him, hurried over.
"Master, are you awake? This time we encountered a black-clad predator again, no! The Ottoman cavalry doesn't know what we should do. We have encountered them four or five times along the way."
As soon as Maimaiti finished speaking, Xu Yunyan looked at him and made a silent gesture.
"Let's take a look first and see what they have planned before doing anything else, but let the brothers
We are all prepared. If they dare to make an attack, these dozens of cavalry must deal with them all immediately, and no one can be leaked. "
It was the same arrangement again, and it was the same layout again. Xu Yunyan nodded hurriedly as soon as he finished talking about Maimaiti.
"Don't worry, general, what do we do? How could we let them escape? As long as the general speaks, none of them can escape."
After Maimaiti finished speaking, Xu Yunyan nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, that's how it should be. The Ottoman cavalry we encountered the last few times were also seen in this way. Maybe they had some plans and didn't show off their power in front of us, so they were still in peace."
But the group of cavalry coming towards their caravan didn't look like they were easy to get along with. There was a man with a big bald head and a deep scar on his bald head, and he smelled of... It was so dark that the tattoo with no idea what it meant came to the convoy and said something in Turkic dialect.
Upon hearing this Turkic language, Xu Yunyan did not ask Maiti to find someone who knew the Turkic language to answer. Instead, he pretended to be dumbfounded and replied to him in Chinese.
"I wonder what the commander is talking about? I'm really sorry. Our caravan encountered an accident on the grassland. Our translator had diarrhea and couldn't hear what the general said. I hope the general can forgive me."
Xu Yunyan spoke authentic Chinese to the Ottoman commander. The Ottoman commander became excited when he heard Xu Yunyan's unspeakable Turkic language.
"Are you Han Chinese?"
Although it is a bit unfamiliar, it is still Chinese that Xu Yunyan can understand. Xu Yunyan is speaking here.
Then he nodded.
"Yes, I am a Han. I wonder what the commander's plans are? We are here to do business in Ottoman. We are bringing some supplies with you in the hope of exchanging some Weibo property with you."
After Xu Yunyan finished speaking, Osman, the bald man with inexplicable tattoos on his face and scars on his head, took a step forward.
"Are you originally a businessman? Or a Han Chinese. Didn't you know that your grandfather hates you Han people the most? Our ancestors did have a few slaves of your Han people. How about grandpa, I'll be more generous and accept you as a pampered person? What do you think?"
"What?"
Xu Yunyan suddenly became angry.
"I heard that you don't want to treat us as human beings, and you still mock us like this, thinking that we can't fight you without the strength of a chicken. Have you forgotten what happened before after being beaten by us Tang people? ?
How do I remember the saying of our ancestors, one Han is like five barbarians.
Don't look at my thin arms and legs. I'm more than enough to defeat the five of you. "
Xu Yunyan suddenly said something shocking, and the man in front of him pointed the weapon in his hand forward.
"Young men, what do you mean by saying that one man is the five barbarians? That was because I, Dahu, was not born. If I had been born at that time, how could there be such a thing as one man being the five barbarians? I can beat you up. Ten, no, can I beat fifty like you?"
It turned out that the bald man in front of him was called Dahu. Xu Yunyan looked at him and sneered.
"No matter what happened before or what happens now, I believe that you are definitely not the bravest warrior of the Ottomans. Even you, the bravest warrior of the Ottomans, cannot be
Said to be braver than your ancestors.
So I think you should stop talking nonsense and just tell me what your plans are. It's fine if it's simple. If we are really our enemy, I have to say that I can only fight you to let you know our strength. "
Suddenly a thorn popped up, and Xu Yunyan was quite unhappy.
"What do you think you have planned? Just say it directly. You are beating around the bush here every day, trying to get benefits from us. Don't you underestimate us too much?"
But after saying these few words, the man named Dahu in front of him looked at Xu Yunyan even more.
"You are very good. Indeed, as our ancestors said, you Han caravans are sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued, but I will not make it difficult for you so that you can bring the items we need."
This big tiger suddenly appeared like this, and Xu Yunyan suddenly realized it.
It turned out to be to set rules for them and let them know whose territory this is?
But this place is in a no-nonsense zone. When did it become your Ottomans?
Although Xu Yunyan and others were very confused, they did not dare to ask this sentence. It was not that they did not dare to be enemies with them, but that even if they were enemies, it would not have much to do with it. It was just to give themselves a little extra Just troubles.
After understanding the purpose of the person in front of him, Xu Yunyan winked at Maimaiti.
Maimaiti is also a thoughtful person, why don't you know what Xu Yunyan means? He sighed reluctantly, but still took out a small bag from his arms. There was a clanging sound inside, like the sound of metal colliding.
What on earth is it?
You can only know if you open it and take a look.
After Maimaiti took out the items, he looked unhappy and handed the items in his arms forward.
Seeing that Maimaiti was so sensible, the person in front of him hurriedly stepped forward and took the money bag with a smile. He shook it and felt that it weighed a lot, and then opened it.
As soon as Dahu opened it, a flash of silver light flashed through, and he immediately beamed with joy.
"You are really a gift. You can remember my name. I am the famous Ottoman warrior Dahu. From now on, if there is a caravan accompanying you on the way to the Ottomans, you can also mention my reputation as Dahu. I will protect it together." When they encounter someone causing trouble for you, they can just call me Dahu’s name.”
After getting a verbal promise, Xu Yunyan didn't care about anything. They were originally investigating the situation, and they were not really here to do business, let alone go far away.
But seeing Dahu get the money and leaving, Xu Yunyan turned his head, "Looking at Commander Dahu's majestic patrol here, don't you know how many other troops are Commander Dahu's troops? Commander Dahu, can you tell me? Tell me, what do you want to do? It’s convenient for me to tell you about the reputation of Commander Dahu.”
"I have to say that Han businessmen are a bit dark-hearted, and their words and actions are a bit unpredictable."
Dahu suddenly said this sentence. He didn't know what to say for a moment and just kept scratching his head.
"Look what you said is really beautiful. Yes, although the teams next to me are not subordinate to each other and are considered equal to each other, but with my heroic appearance, sooner or later they will be included under my command. , just don’t worry.”
in big
After Hu said these words, Xu Yunyan hurriedly flattered him.
"When I saw that Dahu was a psychic, he was a strong and omnipotent warrior. All good things must happen to General Dahu. I just don't know what General Dahu is doing here. How can I Just for the sake of convenience, let me see if I can make some suggestions for General Dahu?"
This time, Dahu scratched his head without any doubt.
"I have always heard from our ancestors that you Han people are all very smart, so it would be good for you to give me some advice."
Then Dahu looked around, and Xu Yunyan was also very sensible. He hurriedly came to Dahu from the side of the carriage and nodded like a pug. Dahu was even more satisfied with this look.
Dahu looked at Xu Yunyan and whispered to Xu Yunyan after looking around.
"Actually, we came here to expand our territory. We have to go westward and need a lot of food and grass. However, the harvest in our territory has been poor in the past few years and there is not much food and grass. We can only come to the grassland to see if there are any cattle and sheep. Horses, give us a supplement. As long as there is enough food and grass, the city in the west will be like a chicken and a dog in front of us."
""Oh I got it. "
Xu Yunyan suddenly realized that it was the Ottomans who were going to fight westward.
It's just that this campaign is destined to not have many good results. Remember that in history, it should be hundreds of years, at least five hundred years, before the west is conquered.
It is definitely impossible to take action now, not to mention that the grassland has also suffered. There are not many cattle, sheep and horses. Moreover, the Turks, the original overlord of the grassland, have been beaten to a pulp by the Tang army. They must let him
Where can we find so many cattle, sheep and horses?
However, although Xu Yunyan knew the cause and effect of the matter, she was still talking next to him.
"I wonder if the general has ever heard of a saying that the only thing you need in a war is logistical supplies?"
Xu Yunyan's epoch-making words made Dahu stunned for a while, but while Dahu was stunned here, Xu Yunyan also started to explain to him.
After Xu Yunyan finished explaining his explanation, Dahu looked at Xu Yunyan with his eyes shining.
"Sir, you are truly an expert."
"The commander is ridiculous. I only understand these issues by chance."
Dahu's words set off Xu Yunyan's heroic appearance, and Dahu didn't feel any embarrassment.
"Your brains are easy to use. I wonder if sir can think of a way to increase my money and food for me. As long as there is a way, I will definitely benefit from your husband. If you don't report it to our king, the king may reward you. It is not impossible to be our national teacher as our ancestors said."
Dahu directly started talking big words. These were just words for the occasion, and there was nothing wrong with them being lively.
