The token is a Yin-Yang token. Before coming to the grassland, Liu Heng handed half of the Yin-Yang token to Zhao Yutu and told him that the person who took out the other half of the token was a spy from the Foreign Intelligence Agency.
Zhao Yutu separated the Yin and Yang tokens again and returned one piece to the man beside him.
The man took the token with both hands and put it in his arms.
After confirming the other party's identity, Zhao Yutu asked, "Tell me, what's the situation over there?"
The man stood aside and said: "My subordinates heard the news that the Fan family's caravan will leave Zhangjiakou for Banshengdi in three days. This is the route that the Fan family used to take on the grassland."
After speaking, he took out a wax pill and handed it to Zhao Yutu.
"Three days later...it means you are not too late." Zhao Yutu took the wax pill and did not rush to open it, but said, "Is there any other news? About other situations of the Fan family caravan, such as how many people came, and what they brought with them. How much goods did you get?"
The man said: "I don't know."
Seeing that the other party did not seem to know the specific situation of the Fan family caravan, Zhao Yutu said, "You stay in the caravan to rest tonight and go back tomorrow."
"Yes." The man said, "I'm resigning."
Zhao Yutu nodded.
After the people left, he crushed the wax ball and took out a note from it.
On the note was not only the route map for the Fan family's caravan to the grassland, but also the number of guards and the number of goods.
Obviously, the secret spy just sent the news that the wax pill and the Fan family's caravan had arrived on the grassland. He was not clear about the contents of the wax pill. Someone else should have gotten the news about the Fan family's caravan.
………………
On the grassland, several horse bandits gathered in a large tent. Besides them, there was also a Mongolian.
"Taiji asked me to inform you horse bandits that the Fan family's caravan will come to the grassland in two days. You horse bandits must restrain your people." The speaker was a man wearing an iron helmet. Armored Mongols.
Opposite the Mongols stood several horse bandit leaders.
One of the horse bandit leaders said: "Don't worry, sir, none of us will touch the Fan family's caravan without Taiji's permission."
"Just understand." The Mongolian said coldly.
The Mongolian did not stay long. After explaining the horse bandits, he left with a group of Mongolian cavalry.
After sending away these personal guards around Taiji, several horse bandit leaders returned to the main tent.
"Damn, I'm really angry. Sooner or later, I'll snatch the Fan family's caravan and see what Su Nang can do to me." Ye Yaozi said with a dissatisfied look on his face.
"Okay, just talk about it and be happy." One of the horse bandit leaders said, "When Cao Fei came up to that group of people, there were more than 500 horse bandits. Who among us can compare with them? In the end, it was because they robbed The Fan family caravan was dragged to death on the grassland by those Mongolian nobles with horses."
Night Harrier snorted without saying anything.
They all knew what happened to Cao Shangfei, otherwise they wouldn't have listened so honestly to a Mongolian Taiji, saying that they were not allowed to touch the Fan family's caravan, so they really wouldn't touch the Fan family's caravan.
The four people in the big tent, Night Harrier, Jumping in the Nest, Rolling on the Grass, and Tu La, are all famous horse bandit leaders in Tumote's territory.
Wo Libeng said: "The Fan family's caravan goes to Banshengdi every one and a half months. If you really want to snatch the Night Harrier, why not just do it on the grassland outside Zhangjiakou, and then flee directly to Baicheng, Su Nang and The man from Qingcheng will never dare to send troops to pursue Baicheng."
"Fart." Ye Yaozi cursed, "If we really wanted to rob the Fan family's caravan, I wouldn't be able to escape from Baicheng. I would be caught by Baihong Khan in Karashen and sent to Qingcheng."
"Coward." Woulibeng sneered.
Ye Yaozi scolded angrily: "Don't you f*cking coward? Go try to rob the Fan family's caravan. If you dare to rob it, I will stay away from you when I see people jumping around in your nest."
Woulibeng snorted coldly and did not answer.
"Shut up, everyone." Tu La looked at Chuangluo, "Chuangluo, didn't you say you wanted to talk to everyone about something? The personal guards sent by Su Nang have left. If you have anything to say, please tell me!"
Cao Caogun, who had been silent, said: "A few days ago, my people encountered a Ming caravan on the grassland. There were more than a dozen carts, and they were four-wheel carts that I had never seen before. Every cart has two horses.”
Night Harrier said with envy: "It seems that you made a fortune from rolling on the grass. Tell everyone, what did you get?"
Cao Cao Roll shook his head and said: "I didn't even grab anything. That caravan was guarded by a hundred-man cavalry team. I only had more than a hundred horse bandits, so I didn't dare to take action."
Tu La frowned and said, "Which caravan actually hired so many cavalry guards? It can't be the caravan of a high official from the Ming Dynasty!"
"It doesn't look like it." Grass Roll said, "If the motorcade of Mingren's high officials should be hung with a large banner indicating their identity, my people didn't see it. It looks more like Mingren's caravan."
"Who cares if it's a Ming Dynasty official or a Ming Dynasty caravan, grab it." Ye Yaozi said, "I have more than a hundred people, and there are more than a hundred grass rollers. In total, there are more than two hundred horse teams. As long as the frontier army doesn't stop at night, any convoy can be robbed."
Grass Rolling said: "I am here this time to discuss with you guys whether we should do something together. My family cannot afford this Mingren caravan."
Wo Li Beng said: "I have a cavalry team of more than 200 people, and I can join forces with you."
After he finished speaking, Grass Roll and Ye Yaozi looked at Tu La together.
Three of the four families decided to join forces to rob the Ming caravan, leaving Tu La's family alone.
Tu La spread his hands and said, "Since the three of you have decided to take action, I naturally have no objection."
Cao Caogun said with a smile: "The four of us join forces, let alone a mere centurion. Even if it is doubled, it will not be our opponent."
Tu La said: "Grass rolling, you have seen that Ming caravan, tell everyone about the situation of that Ming caravan."
Cao Caogun nodded and said: "The Ming caravan was guarded by a cavalry of a hundred people, an infantry guard of two to three hundred people, and more than a dozen carts."
"So simple?" Ye Yaozi frowned.
Grass Rolling said: "My people only explored so much. At that time, Akito's cavalry came after me, and my people didn't have time to investigate carefully."
"So the only thing that poses a threat to us is the Ming people's cavalry escort." Tu La said, "Let's send out spies first to see where the Ming people's caravan is, and then set up an ambush halfway."
"Just do as the butcher says." The nest nodded in agreement.
Grass Roll asked: "How to divide the goods of Mingren's caravan?"
Tu La thought for a moment and said: "We will divide it according to the number of manpower sent by each family. The Ming caravan discovered by Cao Caogun will be divided by 10% more. What do you think?"
"I agree with the method of massacre."
"I have no opinion."
"I don't have any objection either."
