"Zamuka, what do these Ming people mean? They actually blocked you, the envoy of the Great Khan, from outside. It's so rude." The speaker was a Mongolian armored rider wearing leather armor and an iron helmet.
Jamuka raised his head and glanced at the Dunbao in front of him, but what he thought of was the Xinping Fort in Datong Prefecture, which seemed to be as tall.
However, Xinpingbao is not as good as the newly built pier in front of you.
He has been to Xinping Fort. Many of the outer fort walls are made of mud. Due to disrepair, several places have collapsed.
But the fort in front of you is different. The foundation below is made of bluestone, with a section exposed above the ground, and then there are layers of blue bricks. It looks much stronger than the Xinping Fort of the Ming Dynasty.
There were many holes left on the fort wall. Although he didn't know what the purpose of these holes was, he believed that the people of Tiger Character Banner would never leave so many holes for no reason. It was just that he didn't know the purpose.
"You, go in and report again, and tell us that our General Jamuhe wants to see Li Shuheng, the man of your Tiger Flag, and ask him to come out to greet you immediately." Anzabu, who followed Jamuhe to Daheihe, looked impatient. Said to the guard at the edge of the bridge.
The guard glanced at Anzabu, said nothing, and stood by the bridge with an expressionless expression.
Without waiting for a reply, Anzabu's face turned ugly and he said in a deep voice, "I'm talking to you. Didn't you, a southern barbarian, hear it?"
The guards standing here at Hengqiao were the first batch of soldiers to come to the grassland, and they could already communicate simply in Mongolian.
When he heard the Mongolians in front of him calling him Nanmanzi, his face darkened and he said in Mongolian: "No one is allowed to enter the Dunbao without an order, especially you Mongolians."
"What do you mean, you southern barbarian?" Anzabu raised the riding crop in his hand and pointed it at the guard in front of him, and said angrily, "The Great Khan gave you alms and allowed your Tiger Flag to build a warehouse here, but you dare to stop us. Go in, I see you Tiger Flag people have forgotten whose place this is."
The guard glanced at the Mongolian in front of him contemptuously.
When Anzabu saw the other party's expression, the anger in his heart hit Tianling Gai, and he said angrily: "I have to go in today, but I want to see if you southern barbarians dare to take action."
He raised his hand and flicked the reins of the war horse, controlling the horse to walk towards the crossbridge behind the guard.
Before he could take a few steps, the guards around the bridge raised their firecrackers and pointed them at him.
At the same time, on the city wall of the Dunbao, firecrackers emerged from behind the female wall, and they were all aimed at the Hengqiao.
"Anzabu, come back." Jamuka shouted from behind.
At this time, Anzabu had stopped on his own.
When facing the black hole, he took the initiative to pull the reins to stop the horse under him from moving forward.
Jamuka bowed his hands to the guard at the edge of the cross bridge and said, "This time we have been ordered by the Great Khan to see your Mr. Li. Please go in again to report."
When he said this, his tone was a little unpleasant.
"General, there is no need to be so polite to them. This is the place for us Mongols." Anzabu said.
Jamukha ignored him and still looked at the guard at the edge of the bridge.
The guard glanced at Jamuka and said, "You wait here, I'll go in and report."
"Thank you." Jamukha clasped his fists again.
The guard told the other guards around him, turned around and trotted towards the castle.
When Anzabu saw Jamuka being so polite to Tiger Flag, dissatisfaction was written on his face.
Even though a Ming merchant built a warehouse here, he still believed that this place belonged to the Great Khan and the Mongols.
Jamuka withdrew his gaze and said to Anzabu: "Since the Great Khan has given this place to the Tiger Flag to build a warehouse, we should not rush in rashly."
Hearing this, Anzabu looked unconvinced, but said nothing more.
At this moment, someone on the wall of the Dunbao shouted: "Let them enter the castle."
The guard who was originally planning to enter the castle again to report back retreated and said to the other guards: "Let them pass."
After saying that, he led the guards in front of the cross bridge to the side and made way to the cross bridge.
Jamuka and several of his bodyguards rode across the bridge and came to the gate of the Dunbao.
Behind the doorway, parked was a war horse with a person sitting on the horse.
When this person saw Jamukha and others, he first clasped his fists and then said: "General Jamukha, please come with me!"
He turned the horse's head and led the way.
Anzabu looked at the man's back and said to Jamuka beside him: "General, that Li Shuheng doesn't take you seriously, general. General, you came to see him, but he didn't come out to greet us in person."
"Follow me." Jamuka said expressionlessly, knocked his heel on the horse's belly, and followed him.
People around him could feel that he was indeed a little unhappy.
As a personal guard general next to the Great Khan, his status is comparable to that of some Tai Ji. Even if Li Shuheng came in person to lead his horse and put the pedal on it, it would not be an exaggeration.
The Zhao family, the leader of the Han merchants in Bansheng City, often gave their Mongolians the task of leading horses and kicking them.
But when he came to Daheihe, he was first blocked by the people from the Tiger Flag and not allowed to enter the fort. Now, although he entered the fort, he did not see Li Shuheng to greet him. Instead, he only saw a servant sent by the other party.
If it weren't for the Khan's will this time, he would have wanted to turn around and leave.
Leading the way was Li Shuheng's guard Shi Bin.
He did not urge the horse to gallop down the street, but controlled the horse's speed and walked towards the military camp at a speed slightly faster than a normal pedestrian.
Jamuka and others who were following behind could only slow down their horses and control their horses to move forward slowly.
The street is paved with a layer of blue bricks, and horses' hooves make a clicking sound when they step on it.
"Can you go faster? This way of walking, you have to go as far as you can!"
After walking for a while, Anzabu couldn't help but urge.
Shi Bin, who was walking in front, turned back and said calmly: "The street is not wide, and you can't tell when pedestrians will cross. If you let go of your horse's speed, it would be bad if you hit people, not to mention we will be there soon. "
Anzabu snorted coldly.
If he were in Qingcheng, he would have let go of his horse and let the horse galloping down the street.
As a personal guard around the Great Khan, even if he encountered Taiji from some small tribes, he would not dare to stop him easily, but would let him pass first.
After walking for a while, there was a wall in front of us. There was an iron gate in the middle, connecting the inside and outside of the wall.
"Guys, here you are, please dismount first." Shi Bin, who was walking in front, said, and then he jumped off the horse.
Jamuka, Anzabu and others behind them also dismounted.
Shi Bin led the horse to the guard in front of the iron gate and said, "They are envoys sent by the Great Khan. The deputy director arranged for me to take them in."
The guard nodded.
Only then did Shi Bin lead the horse into the inner door.
Jamuka and others followed him.
When he arrived in front of the guards, he was stopped.
