The cold wind swept over the Tianshan Mountains and fell on the banks of the La River in Qamdo.
In a military tent, Harry looked at the bonfire. The smoke came over, and his eyes instantly became moist. When his nose became sour, big tears rolled down his cheeks. Like a sudden change in circumstances, the tears hurriedly reached the corners of his mouth and jumped again. Go down.
fail!
A complete failure!
The military tent door was opened, and a familiar figure walked in. Looking at Harry who was wiping his eyes, he quickly shouted: "Harry Pioneer, you, you..."
Ba Qishan hurriedly walked closer, grabbed Harry's arm, and couldn't help but grieve.
Seeing that Ba Qishan had a layer of white gauze wrapped around his head, covering one eye, Harry could not help but feel pain, so he comforted him: "Ba Qishan, you are suffering. It was my improper command and underestimated the strength of the Ming army. I have implicated 40,000 soldiers."
Ba Qishan choked up and said, "It doesn't matter if we all die, but Harry, you are the grandson of the Sultan and the most promising heir to the Timur Empire in the future. How could you fall into the hands of the Ming army? Slam, Why didn’t Dovgang and the others send you out!”
Harry was even more miserable. Dovgang was dead, shot to death by an arrow. As for Slam, he didn't know whether he was dead or alive. But he, who was in charge of the aftermath, probably had no hope of surviving.
"we lose."
Harry admitted failure without any excuses and was very magnanimous.
Ba Qishan was full of bitterness, even Harry was captured, and this battle was completely lost.
The cold wind blew in again.
Karachi walked in and looked at Harry and Ba Qishan with an uncertain expression. When Ba Qishan saw Karachi, anger suddenly appeared in his eyes. He rushed forward and punched Karachi in the face. Karachi staggered, was kicked again, and fell out of the room.
Harry quickly walked out, looked at Ba Qishan and Karachi who were struggling, and shouted: "Ba Qishan, what are you doing! Let go!"
Ba Qishan pressed Karachi under him, raised his fists, and breathed quickly: "Hari Pioneer, you don't know yet, the reason why we failed is because he betrayed you, he betrayed the Sultan, and he surrendered to the Ming Dynasty! When we were fighting, there was no fighting at all in the northeast of the Ming army!"
Bang bang!
Ba Qishan punched Karachi on the bridge of his nose. Karachi suddenly started bleeding, but he just lay on the ground, enduring Ba Qishan's heavy blows again and again without fighting back.
"enough!"
Harry reached out and grabbed Ba Qishan's bloody fist. Looking at Karachi who was bruised and swollen, he asked, "Is it true that you surrendered to the Ming Dynasty?"
Karachi turned his face sideways and spat out a mouthful of blood. Then he looked at Harry and moved the corners of his mouth: "Yes, I surrender."
Ba Qishan raised his index finger from his fist, aimed at Karachi's neck, and then dropped it!
boom!
Ba Qishan turned over and rolled to the side. He quickly turned over and looked around, only to see a Ming sergeant standing next to Karachi with his legs retracted.
Suo Jing said coldly: "Karachi has surrendered to the Ming Dynasty and is a member of the Ming Dynasty. You are just a prisoner, what qualifications do you have to attack him? If you mess around again, I won't mind killing you!"
Harry looked at Suo Jing, his eyelids trembling, and he quickly stopped Ba Qishan, who wanted to make a move, not to do it! Harry felt horrified when he thought of Suo Jing's ferocious manner in which he killed dozens of soldiers in a row.
Ba Qishan rubbed his shoulders, looked at Karachi lying on the ground, and said, "Shameless scum!"
Karachi took a deep breath, sat up, looked at Harry with complex eyes, and said, "I am the same as you, I have no choice."
Ba Qishan still wanted to curse, but Karachi had already stood up: "You don't know what Ming Dynasty has done to me and my sergeants, and you don't know why I want to take refuge in Ming Dynasty. It doesn't matter, it won't take long, you will understand." "
Closing his eyes, Karachi thought of the soaring fire, the exploding fragments, the earthquake, and the countless brothers and horses dying in an instant, and he could no longer think of fighting against the Ming Dynasty.
He had no way to tell Harry, no way to tell Ba Qishan what happened to him, and Zhu Di didn't use that when dealing with them.
A mysterious and powerful weapon! Ming Dynasty hid his power because he wanted to deal with Timur better!
Harry glared at Ba Qishan and said to Karachi: "There is no need for you to seek refuge in the Ming Dynasty. Follow me and I will definitely take you back."
Snap.
Yang Rong came with a high-five and smiled at Harry: "Take him back, I'm afraid you can't be the master yet."
Harry looked at Yang Rong, heard the interpreter clearly, and asked, "Could it be that Ming Dynasty still dares to kill me?"
As the grandson of Tamerlane, he has a noble status. Even if such a high-ranking figure is taken as a prisoner, he will usually not be taken out and beheaded. Even out of the need to ease relations, both parties will put the high-ranking figure back.
For example, Nahachu, who once occupied Liaodong, and Libala, who became the Great Khan, were both prisoners of Zhu Yuanzhang. Another example is the war-god emperor in history. After hunting in Oara for several years, he was finally sent back. After a lot of troubles, he became emperor again.
As long as there is no one killed on the battlefield, quite a few of these senior generals can survive. The more noble their status and the more important their status, the higher the probability of survival.
Of course, whether it will be kept at the bottom of a well is another matter.
This set of logic is universal. After Timur captured the Ottoman Empire's lightning Bayezid, he did not kill him, and there was not even the rumored humiliation. Instead, he let Bayezid live well. .
Nobles have the dignity of nobility and can be killed but not humiliated. When a noble insults a noble, it is no different from devaluing one's status.
Harry believed that Daming would never kill him.
Yang Rong shook his head and told Harry simply: "As long as you don't seek death, Daming will not hurt you. After all, Daming needs you to exchange for some people."
Harry frowned: "Substitute me for who?"
Yang Rong said sternly: "We will all bring back the envoys of the Ming Dynasty, Fu An, Guo Ji, Sun Liang, etc., who were detained by Timur in the Ming Dynasty."
Harry looked at the general and became angry when he heard what he understood. He shouted at Yang Rong: "You trade me for an insignificant envoy? You are humiliating me!"
Ba Qishan quickly grabbed Harry's arm. What a great opportunity this is. It doesn't matter who Daming replaces you with, as long as you can return to the Sultan, it will be fine.
It's not like changing a dog, why are you excited?
Of course Harry was excited!
He is the grandson of the dignified Sultan and has a noble status! Isn't this kind of exchange equivalent to elevating the envoy to the same value as himself?
Why do they?
How can those damn down-and-out ghosts be compared with me!
Yang Rong's eyes became a little cold: "In your eyes, the envoys of the Ming Dynasty are insignificant. In our eyes, you Harry are not even qualified to lead the envoys of the Ming Dynasty! In addition, let me tell you, the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and yours The war started on the day Timur seized the Ming envoys! Now the Ming Dynasty is marching westward to bring an end to the war that has lasted for many years without any results!"
"You mean, Ming Dynasty sent troops to conquer the west because of those envoys?"
Harry asked rhetorically.
Yang Rong nodded solemnly: "Yes! You can bring this news to Timur, to everyone. The people of Ming Dynasty will not tolerate anyone bullying, let alone anyone detaining! When the people of Ming Dynasty follow your When the country passes by, you'd better pray that they don't fall down, because every injury and every grievance they suffer, Ming Dynasty will put it on your head!"
Harry couldn't help but take two steps back, Daming is so powerful! His own grandfather, Timur, had destroyed countless countries and had never been so domineering. The little Ming Dynasty actually dared to be so ignorant!
Harry pointed at Yang Rong and shouted to the general: "Tell him, when the Sultan comes and the Ming Dynasty is destroyed, I will definitely chop off his head to drink wine!"
After hearing this, Yang Rong laughed loudly, put his hands behind his back, and said calmly: "If Ming loses, why not give you his head? But Harry, have you ever thought about the consequences if you become Ming's prisoner for the second time?" What is it?"
Harry looked at Yang Rong who turned to leave, his mouth trembled a little, and shouted: "Go tell Zhu Di that the Sultan is invincible and there is no way he can win."
Who can stop Sultan from moving forward! "
"Unfortunately, our general Zhu Di is also invincible." Yang Rong said as he walked. When he came to the outer door, he turned around and said, "By the way, there are a few acquaintances who want to see you. I hope you can have a good chat."
Karachi looked at Harry deeply and wanted to tell him, don't let Timur come, don't let Timur come, don't let Timur come!
But I can’t say anything that’s pressing in my heart!
The people of Ming Dynasty are here. Once they open their mouths, if they don't say anything, the captured sergeants may be implicated, and even Harry may never go back!
That’s it!
*** will arrange everything.
Karachi turned and left.
Harry waited until he found the person Yang Rong said. This time it was no longer Ba Qishan who was going to fight, but Shami Chagan and Mahama from Yili.
Shamichagan and Mahama became prisoners of the Ming Dynasty at Alashankou, and they hated the Ming Dynasty deeply. But after all, the Ming Dynasty did not drive them out of Yili City, nor did it help Timur and the others. At most, they betrayed the covenant and occupied the territory behind their backs, that's all.
But Harry and Ba Qishan are different. They are the sworn enemies of Shamichagan and the executioners who destroyed Yilibaili. I heard that these madmen massacred all the soldiers and people in Yilibaoli!
Why are these demons still alive?
Shamichagan and Hari struggled with each other, and Mahamayya and Ba Qishan wrestled. Suo Jing, Du Jian and others on the side were also speechless. They were getting paid for guarding prisoners, but they also had to do the work of breaking up fights?
Zhu Di walked into the long tent and looked at the injured sergeants lying in rows. His brows did not relax. When the sergeants saw the general coming to visit, they couldn't help but want to get up and shouted "General" one after another.
"Lie down, don't get up."
Zhu Di shouted quickly and walked to the nearest injured sergeant. Seeing that his thighs were tied up and the gauze was faintly red, he asked with concern: "What's your name?"
"Come back to the general, my name is Geng Niu."
"Geng Niu? I heard about you. General Yang Shen said that you stabbed five cavalrymen with a fire blunderbuss. You are a well-deserved hero. How are you? How is the injury on your leg?"
Zhu Di pulled Geng Niu and asked him to lie down.
Geng Niu smiled honestly, moved his legs, twitched the corners of his mouth, and said stiffly: "The injury on the leg is not important, it is just a broken bone by the war horse. I told the military doctor several times that I don't need to come here. But the military doctor is not allowed. The general is here, so you might as well talk to the military doctor. Other brothers need to enter this warm tent wounded room more than me."
Zhu Di comforted Geng Niu: "I won't agree even if the military doctor promised it. You are all heroes who fought for the country and killed the enemy. If you are injured, you have to come to this warm tent to recuperate in the wounded military room. Don't worry, this kind of The warm tent and wounded soldier's room are sufficient."
Geng Niu muttered: "I heard from the military doctor that there is no heater in the general's tent, so they have all been sent to the warm tent wounded soldier room."
Zhu Di turned to look for someone: "Where is the military doctor? If you dare to lie about the military situation, I, the general, must take care of him..."
