Chapter 3 The Madman's Friend
Baima Beach is located by a clear stream.
Earlier, most of the caravans set out from Yele City, along Burenling and Qingshan Ridge, and crossing the Pamir Mountains through Jianmo Valley to the west, and they would come here to camp and rest before crossing the Pamir Mountains.
At that time, the Qin Dynasty was the strongest and most powerful, and it had the most powerful military front in Hanhai. It had the Jianmo Shu, Qingshan Shu, Qingling Shu and other garrisons, Sudu Feng, Huaquan Feng and other beacon towers, all of which were under the jurisdiction of the guard commander of the guard and capture city of the Pailing City.
The small earthen castle that Yin Niang had just started killing was the beacon tower set up by Daqin when the Hanhai Commercial Road was the busiest.
If it was not abandoned, there would be a bell general who led five or six bell soldiers to guard the fields.
Unfortunately, several vassal states on the Pamir Mountains colluded with the former white-clothed food and clothing, or colluded with the Tubo and Western Turkic tribes to rebel.
The Qin Dynasty led its troops to fight and, as they fought, destroyed the trade route of Hanhai. As a result, most of the caravans that traveled between Dashi and Daqin were now walking from Rehai, north of the Pamir Mountains.
Because the national strength was not as good as that of the past, the Qin Dynasty gave up its sovereignty over the small countries on the Pamirs. The entire Western Regions defense line contracted repeatedly, and unknowingly, it had shrunk for hundreds of miles and had already shrunk to Yele City.
There are only four military towns in the Anxi Protectorate, Ye Le, Guishu, Yuzi and Suotian. In addition, the Hu soldiers attached to it, there are only more than 30,000 soldiers guarding the vast Anxi Protectorate.
If you retreat again and again, the entire territory will be lost after a hundred years at most.
Although it does not belong to the same time and space, the pace of history is very similar.
So every time Han Ping'an came here, he sighed.
But the building is about to collapse, not what he can do alone to turn the tide. So just drink and drink and enjoy your life well.
"Young Master, there is someone!"
"ah……"
“There is a bonfire in front.”
Horse thieves usually don’t come to this area, but Yin Niang dared not be careless, tied the reins and slowly pulled out the knife.
Han Ping'an looked up and found a fire in the distance.
At this time, a loud voice came from the wind: "A heartbreaking song!"
Although the man spoke in the official language of Daqin, his accent was strange and a bit stiff. Yin Niang heard that it was a friend but not an enemy, so the knife in her hand slowly returned to the sheath.
Han Ping'an smiled knowingly and replied at the top of his voice: "Where can I find a soulmate in the world!"
"People, put down the arrow."
A black shadow straightened up from the weeds, gave an order in Turkic language, and then came up, laughing in stiff Daqin Mandarin, "Crazy, I thought you were not here anymore, why did you get it right now... No, you have a bloody smell on your body, what happened."
"You are a dog, you can even smell this."
"Dogs are descendants of wolves, I am descendants of wolves. I can naturally smell them if there is a bloody smell."
"It sounds like something makes sense." Han Ping'an turned over and got off the horse, took off the cloth towel covering his face that was covered with wind and sand, and smiled bitterly: "I met four assassins on the road. Because I was looking for you to slap my life, I almost lost my life."
The black shadow gave him a passionate bear hug, patted him on the back, looked up at Yin Niang who was still on the horse's back, and asked half-jokingly: "Even the madman wants to kill him, who is so useless?"
"I don't know where to come from." Han Ping'an couldn't stand the smell on his body and pushed him away with all his might.
With the help of the moonlight, you can vaguely see the dark man's face, dark and wearing two earrings.
Yin Niang stared at the little prince of the Snow Tribe named Suda Sushi, thinking that the Turks were stronger than the Qin people. He was obviously as old as the young master, but he was big and thick, and he was a fierce warrior.
Li Er, who always runs around, is not here, and Sannier's watery girl doesn't come either. The madman is only left by the madman who doesn't usually talk much...
Suda Sushi realized that his good brother was not joking and asked in a low voice: "Where are those assassins?"
"Diet." Han Ping'an took a deep breath and added: "Those assassins not only want to kill me, but also want to kill my father."
Suda Sushi was stunned and hurriedly said, "It's not about my father's Khan's business!"
"You have so many brothers, you are the least favored one. If your father Khan really wants to send someone to assassinate my father, can he tell you such a secret matter?"
"Who said I was not favored? My father Khan is very kind to me now. Even if my father Khan wants to go to war with you Daqin, he will chop your father's head on the battlefield and will not use such despicable means of assassination."
"What if it was your father Khan?"
"If there is no if, definitely not." Fearing that my good brothers don't believe it, Suda Sushi said anxiously: "Besides, your father is just a civil servant, not that Jinwu Guard General, nor that Central Army General. Even if my father Khan wants to send a death warrior to assassinate, it is not the turn to assassinate your father."
"It's really not like what your father Khan did. Your father Khan is not that smart." Han Ping'an nodded.
"You mean my father Khan is an idiot, a fool?"
"I didn't say that, you said this."
"Madman, if you talk about my father's khan, I'm angry."
"Okay, I'm not kidding anymore. Let's talk about serious matters, how many people do you bring in total."
Suda Sushi blurted out: "Twelve."
Han Ping'an looked back at Yin Niang who was still on the horse's back, turned around and said, "Pick four people first and help me take Yin Niang back."
The Turks opposite the Pamir Mountains were not the Turks who bowed to the Qin Dynasty in Anxi, they were all mortal enemies of the Qin Dynasty!
No matter what, Yin Niang is also the daughter of the border army of the Qin Dynasty. Naturally, she would not have a good impression of the Turkic people who crossed the Pamir Mountains. Before the Turkic prince spoke, she said without thinking: "Young master, I don't want anyone to escort him. I'm familiar with this, so I won't have any trouble."
"As you please send someone to send me off. If my father has any explanation, he can also ask them to help pass the message at that time."
"Transfer... Master, aren't you going back?"
"The city is too dangerous, I don't plan to go back for the time being. And I want to figure out the situation first and see if I can give those insiders hiding in the dark a trick."
"How to use the trick?"
"They can find someone to pretend to be me, why can't I pretend to be that little bastard in the opposite direction!"
Wanxin Yin Niang was really not good at playing with it. Seeing that Han Ping'an had made up his mind, he could only nod.
Suda Sushi pinched his lower lip and whistled, and saw a dozen black shadows rolling over horses and galloping from behind.
Suda Sushi explained a few words in Turkic words in front of Han Ping'an and the others.
Han Ping'an also walked to Yin Niang and explained, watching Yin Niang and the four Turkic knights away, then raised his arms and pointed to the direction he came:
"Suda, fifteen or sixteen miles away, there is an abandoned beacon. The four assassins who wanted to kill me were all lying there, and there were a few camels and some goods. Send a few people to help me clean the bodies of the four assassins and bring the camels and goods back."
"OK."
