"Seventy percent? Oh my god, how much does this cost?"
"It turns out that they made all the money away."
Obviously this ratio has destroyed the mentality of young people.
The middle-aged man sneered.
"The devil knows how much money there is. Usually we can't get the goods they sell, and they run a separate business. But it's okay. At least the money they earn is used to build bridges and roads, which is considered a good thing. "
"I heard that some public facilities such as bathhouses and public toilets in the county were built with this money."
"By the way, if you encounter danger when you go out in the future, if there are national merchants nearby, ask them for help. I read from the notice in Tongmaihuang County that when traveling on business, national merchants can provide necessary protection at a certain time."
"No wonder, we just wanted them to go first."
The young man had a clear look on his face.
The middle-aged man smiled.
"Seeing the Chinese merchants give way first is the tacit rule of all caravans here. The Chinese merchants have rescued several caravans outside the customs, so they are treated like this."
The young people struck each other with fists and hands, their faces full of joy.
"Can I also join the Guoshang?"
The middle-aged man's face suddenly became dull. He hesitated, shook his head and said.
"You have no chance. You must have served as a soldier."
At this time, the young man could no longer hear the sounds around him. Looking at the huge caravan going away, he felt a strong desire to join.
Looking at his nephew's expression, he was glad that he didn't say anything more exaggerated just now.
According to the standards of Guoshang, except for a few powerful countries, other countries in the Western Region may not be able to defeat even a Guoshang escort team from Xia Kingdom.
Under the shocked and envious eyes of everyone, the caravan slowly set off.
On the other side, after the small caravan entered the shortcut, it started to accelerate all the way.
The people who followed him had curses on their faces.
They didn't have telescopes or phones, so they had to rely on half luck to keep up.
after one day.
The entire caravan has entered the depths of the shortcut.
The leading general asked sideways.
"Did the dog behind bite the bait?"
"Biting, hanging from a distance, these people are very good at horseback riding, and they can still keep up with us."
The general nodded and said.
"Inform us and tell the brothers to be alert. We are here to kill people. If we are injured and die by then, it will be really embarrassing and thrown into Luohe."
"promise!"
As the battle progressed, some soldiers began to secretly wear armor.
As long as you put on your armor and put your clothes on, you can't really see the opponent from such a distance.
At noon, everyone began to rest, took out the pots and cooked food.
Unfortunately, the spies couldn't understand it. They just saw these people placing the carriage randomly, then taking out the pot and starting to cook.
As long as a general with some knowledge of military basics comes over and takes a look, he will understand that these carriages have a vague tendency to be surrounded. As long as they are operated properly, they can form an encirclement in an instant.
After a while, the fragrance came out.
The leading general ordered to the side.
"Everyone, please eat quickly and don't eat too much. I think you are about to get hooked."
"promise!"
It didn't take long for the meal to be ready.
For this operation, everyone brought multigrain rice and mutton.
The mutton is frozen in ice cubes on the baggage truck. After thawing, it is directly blanched in water and cleaned at the same time. It is chopped into small pieces and placed directly with the multi-grain rice. Pour in the sauce and stew over medium heat.
After a while, a strange fragrance hit my nostrils.
As pots of mutton and multigrain rice came out of the pot, the soldiers immediately lined up with plates in hand.
Three tablespoons of mutton and multigrain rice, and one tablespoon of soup. This food is considered top-notch treatment no matter where it is placed.
The frontier army is like this. No matter how much money they make, food or oil, one thing is that the food will not be bad.
Yang Qian can be said to have worked hard on logistics. It can even be said that from the time he came to power through time, all his forces and all internal affairs have revolved around logistical supplies.
What we fight for is money, and we fight for food consumption.
It’s not that Yang Gan looked down on the Huns, but those group of people couldn’t eat much meat all day long. They looked like beggar-like bandy legs, but they still wanted to fight the fat and strong frontier soldiers? Is it comparable?
In the history of the previous life, it was said that one Han could defeat five barbarians. In this world, with the strength of the border army, it could be said that one summer could defeat ten barbarians.
The soldiers' mouths were full of oil. No matter where they were, a big bowl of multigrain rice with the aroma of mutton was extremely delicious.
In particular, the sheep from Taihuang County are not sheep from the Central Plains. The sheep from the Western Regions are called Hu sheep. The quality of their mutton is considered to be very good and is widely used in banquets and sacrificial activities for the Central Plains nobles.
Hu sheep have unique meat quality characteristics due to the harsh growth environment, such as plateaus and deserts.
The meat of Hu Yang is very delicious, with fine texture, less fat and delicious taste. It is described as "the best meat".
In addition, the wool yield of Hu sheep is also very high. The wool is soft and fine, suitable for making high-grade wool. It once became a fashionable luxury product pursued by the nobles in the Central Plains region.
Generally speaking, Hu Yang is regarded as a precious source of food and wool, and its mutton and wool are pursued by people and merchants.
Tian Zong is also very capable and has vigorously developed the breeding industry of Hu sheep. There are many large and small pastures in the entire Taihuang County.
Many people from the Western Regions were also hired to raise sheep.
All the soldiers had good meals, but some soldiers deliberately blocked the scene to let those who had not had time to change their armor wear their armor.
Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves sounded.
The general's ears twitched, he jumped up, rushed into a carriage, and said anxiously.
"Notify the army behind that the fish has taken the bait."
"clear."
The man from Tianshou Division immediately nodded and started operating the phone.
The general began to give orders.
"Everyone, hurry up, arrange the carriages in a circular formation, take out the long hoe, and the others will take the crossbows and hide them at the side."
The soldiers were very disciplined. After moving the carriages, they connected each carriage with chains.
He took out the long hoe from the carriage. This time he used a special three-stage removable hoe for concealment.
A handful of crossbows began to be cocked, hidden inside the carriage.
The Hun cavalry was very fast. When he heard the sound of horse hoofbeats coming from far away, the general took out his binoculars in the direction of the sound.
I saw billowing smoke and dust rushing towards my position like a long dragon.
"Soldiers, get ready. The superiors are indeed right. They are the Huns."
"promise!"
Hundreds of people roared.
The spies in the distance felt something was wrong.
"Sir, something is wrong. Their discipline seems to be beyond the reach of a caravan."
A spy said to the vulture man.
The Yin Vulture man's eyes gradually turned cold, and his heart seemed to be grabbed unconsciously.
"No, this is a conspiracy!"
The Yin Vulture man immediately pulled the reins and retreated immediately with the men next to him.
But before he could make any extra moves, he only heard the sound of "swish, swish, swish".
Feathered arrows shot out from the grass.
The Yin Vulture man, four or five of his men, and the horses beneath him were instantly shot into a sieve.
Soldiers with weird shapes came out from the grass holding strong bows and crossbows.
One of the men, who looked like a team leader, came to the spies, kicked the Yin Vulture man a few times, and spat hard.
"You bastards of the Hun who dare to rob and kill my Xia Kingdom's caravan are so disgusting!"
On the other side, the Huns were so fast that they rushed to the circular formation in a blink of an eye.
When they saw the formation, the Huns' hearts suddenly froze, and the leading centurion immediately called out to the soldiers.
"Quick, cum for me!!!"
"Swish swish"
The Huns had better riding skills. They kept drawing their bows and shooting arrows while riding. Unfortunately, most of the arrows were shot on the carriage.
As they passed the carriage, long hobs emitting cold light stabbed out like poisonous snakes.
In an instant, a large number of Huns who passed by were stabbed through the waist. Some Huns could still maintain their riding posture, but a large number of Huns fell off their horses after being stabbed, and were trampled to pieces by the cavalry behind them. mud.
"Everyone, fight back!"
Soldiers began to emerge from behind the carriage, firing with powerful crossbows and bows.
If bows and arrows have higher technical requirements for soldiers, then the requirements for crossbows are much lower.
After aiming with Wangshan, you can almost hit the Huns at close range.
After the arrowheads endowed with powerful kinetic energy hit the Huns wearing leather armor, they penetrated some Huns completely like a hot knife cutting through tofu.
In just one charge, more than fifty Huns fell from their horses, and hundreds of others were more or less injured.
The leading centurion turned his head to look, and his eyes were filled with anger.
I often come here to beat the autumn wind, but I didn't expect to encounter a tough situation this time, but the ferocity of the grassland people was also aroused.
Turning the horse's head, it was another round of charge.
Unfortunately, there was no change in the ending, and dozens of people fell off their horses again.
After two rounds of charges, he finally understood that this was not a hard fight at all, but a conspiracy, a trap, and a trap for himself.
"run!"
He only had one thought in his mind now. As long as he ran away with his soldiers, no one could catch up with the Huns who were galloping at full speed.
The ideal is full and the reality is very basic. When he was about to run away, there was a sound of horse hooves.
Not far away, groups of cavalry began to appear. When he saw the costumes of the other side's cavalry, his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
"Xiaguo people!!!"
"Brothers, this time we have been set up by the Xia people. Come on, if you can get through, you can go home. If you can't get over, you will die here. Kill!!!!"
It has to be said that the Huns have been galloping on the grasslands for hundreds of years, and no one who can survive in such a bitter and cold place is weak.
Many Huns took off their clothes, tied up the bleeding wounds on their bodies, brandished sabers, bone swords, and even bronze swords, and ran towards the cavalry.
Some Huns who still had physical strength began to shoot arrows with their bows.
The general headed by the cavalry raised a sneer on his lips, raised his horse in his hand, and shouted loudly.
