Lao Zhu wanted to stop him, but it was too late. He could only look at Chen Mo helplessly and said: "Brother Chen, these people are famous horse thieves in the Yunzhong area. They are more ruthless than the barbarians. They kill them to share some of their goods."

Yes, why bother taking action?"

Wang Biao glanced at Lao Zhu and said, "If my boss hadn't helped you, you would be a dead man now."

Lao Zhu was stunned when he heard this and didn't know how to answer.

"Horse thieves? Very powerful?" Chen Mo said in surprise. In his impression, these bandits should be just a mob.

"It doesn't matter how powerful you are." Lao Zhu shook his head and said: "The horse thieves in the Yunzhong area are quite difficult to deal with. They robbed you. If you are willing to hand over some goods, they will kill a few people at most, but they will not pester you.

But if we kill their people, we will never stop fighting. Once upon a time, a Xianbei tribe with thousands of people killed a horse thief. The horse thief then attacked day and night, whenever there was an opportunity. Brothers, you know that

How do you feel? In the end, the tribe of thousands of people was wiped out."

"Ruthless enough." Others frowned when they heard this. They are not afraid of being powerful. People like Chen Mo have experienced hundreds of battles, but this kind of stalking is a bit disgusting. If you accidentally come up and bite you.

"Who are these people? Are the Xianbei tribes letting them rob here?" Chen Mo asked curiously.

"Why not? These horse thieves robbed things, but no matter who you were, the Han people robbed, and they robbed the Hu people even more fiercely. Some small tribes were wiped out at will. They had been suppressed several times before, but this group of horse thieves were quite cunning.

He just ran away, and then came back to exact revenge after they dispersed. It was at that time that the reputation of this horse thief was spread, and now even tribes like the Dugu tribe are unwilling to provoke him."

Chen Mo nodded and looked at the hundreds of horse thieves who were gradually surrounding him. They had already entered the shooting range. He glanced at Hao Zhao. Hao Zhao understood and rode out into battle. He said loudly: "Stop immediately, otherwise don't blame the sword."

Eyeless.”

"Okay, let's wait and see what the blind method is like!" The leader of the horse thieves rode out into the battle and sneered: "Hand over the person who shot my brother, otherwise, you people, one by one, won't do anything.

I want to go back alive!"

Hand over the master? Hao Zhao looked fierce and sneered: "On your side?"

"Fire the arrow!" Chen Mo looked at the shivering traders with fearful expressions on their faces. Knowing that these people were hopeless, he sat on the horse and drew a sharp arrow and said: "Dian Wei, prepare to attack!"

"Here!"

"Buzz~"

A row of arrow clusters rose into the sky, and in the astonished eyes of the horse thieves on the opposite side, they directly disappeared into the crowd. In an instant, more than a dozen horse thieves were shot off their horses. Following closely, Dian Wei and his men had already rushed out. The leader of the horse thieves

Seeing this, he shouted angrily: "Kill them!"

"Formation!" Looking at the surging horse thieves, Dian Wei grinned and shouted sharply. The soldiers around him quickly formed a semicircle, and crossbow arrows flew out. The horse thieves who rushed towards him kept falling off their horses and charging.

By the time we arrived at the formation, half of the people were already gone.

"Get out!" Dian Wei stood in front of the formation. Seeing the horses coming towards him, he flew up with a kick. Both the man and the horse were kicked and fell to the side. Dian Wei also took a few steps back and stopped, picking up his hands.

The halberd was pointed at the crowd and struck.

Although the horse thieves are ruthless, they are still human beings, and they will naturally have fear. Half of them died before they even engaged in the battle, and their morale has long been gone. If the horses were not too fast to stop, they would have dispersed long ago. At this moment, Dian Wei

The power of knocking down a war horse made these horse thieves even more frightened. Many horse thieves turned around and ran away. A group of nearly two hundred people were killed by the sharp arrows that followed. Only the remaining ones were killed.

Dozens of people fled in panic.

He couldn't catch up, and Chen Mo didn't want to pursue him. After letting his wounded soldiers be brought back to the carriage to rest, Chen Mo just ordered the retreat.

"Brother Chen, you guys..." Lao Zhu and other vendors were stunned. This battle probably didn't last even a quarter of an hour from the beginning to now. The horse thief, who is famous for his fierceness, didn't even have any contact with Chen Mo's military formation. After being defeated, they had seen the world before, but this was the first time they saw such a powerful guard.

"Brother Zhu, don't take it too seriously." Chen Mo waved his hand. These guards were selected from among the elite and trained by Gao Shun. They are all people who have experienced battles. If Lian If you can't deal with such a group of horse thieves, what's the use?

"The rabble..." Lao Zhu smiled awkwardly. It was such a rabble that stirred up the chaos in the clouds. Tribes like the Dugu tribe were not willing to provoke them.

"What's the matter?" Dian Wei came back, stuffed the iron halberd back into his pocket, got on his horse, looked at Lao Zhu doubtfully and said.

"Nothing...nothing..." Lao Zhu quickly shook his head. Although he had thought that Lao Dian was not an easy master to deal with before, he just saw Dian Wei kicking a horse rushing towards him in front of the formation. The posture of being kicked away by the war horse was still a bit unbelievable. Facing Dian Wei at this moment, he was a little more in awe. He did not dare to make fun like before, and said with a dry smile: "With Brother Dian's ability, maybe I can really hold him this time." The beauty returns."

"Really?" Dian Wei grinned, then looked at Chen Mo and said, "My boss, you have to help me with this archery thing."

"It depends on how people take the exam. If they all pass, I really can't help." Chen Mo looked at Dian Wei, patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "But don't worry, I see your face is rosy, and good things are coming soon."

"Don't you have a wife at home?" Wang Biao couldn't help but asked: "Why do you insist on having a barbarian woman?"

"You don't understand." Dian Wei smacked his lips and said, "My wife is fine in everything, but her health is not very good. She has not had sex since she gave birth to Man'er. I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it. This Hu woman has a weak body." Be tougher."

Cough~

Chen Mo coughed lightly, feeling that it was inconvenient for him to discuss the issue of women under his subordinates, so he just pretended not to hear it. As for whether he could win over the women from the Dugu tribe, it would depend on the situation. Chen Mo naturally had more things to consider than Dian Wei and the others. In Chen Mo's opinion, the women of the Dugu tribe want to marry each other, which is just a nuisance. What really matters is the attitude of the Tuoba tribe, whether they really want to move inland, and the attitude of the Kuitou tribe, which is related to the future of Bingzhou. Regarding the border issue, if these people really have this intention, then they have to start preparing for the game with these foreign races in advance.

According to Chen Mo's plan for the future, after acquiring Yanmen, Taiyuan, Shangdang and Xihe in Bingzhou, he will first make good friends with these Hu tribes and accumulate strength to take Guanzhong into his hands first. Then he will take over Hetao, Wuyuan, Yunzhong, When the four counties of Dingxiang and Dingxiang are taken back, I will have enough ability to develop these four counties.

But if the Xianbei people choose to go south in a big way at this time, then Chen Mo's plan must be changed. South of the Great Wall, he must have the final say. It is okay for the Hu people to go south. Chen Mo also hopes to see this result, but that will It was an internal attachment, just like the Southern Xiongnu back then, and even more thorough than that. It was led by him, and the Xianbei tribes had to obey his orders, instead of Xianbei going south to occupy his land.

The horse thieves ran away with their bodies scattered all over the floor. Chen Mo had his weapons and uninjured horses pulled back. His current identity was a merchant.

Lao Zhu looked at the war horse pulled back by Chen Mo's men with some envy and said: "Brother Chen, you can make more than us in this trip."

Chen Mo nodded, with a bright smile on his face. Although these trophies were nothing to him, mosquitoes, no matter how small they were, were still meat.

The Dugu tribe was no longer far away. At sunset, on the plain in the distance, one could see domes densely clustered together like tribes. Guard towers were built around them, and a fence-like wall was built. Outside the wall, a

Lots of tents.

A group of cavalry rushed over. Seeing that Dian Wei and others wanted to be on guard, Lao Zhu quickly said: "Don't do anything. They are people from the Dugu tribe. They should be here to receive the goods."

"Receive the goods?" Chen Mo looked at Lao Zhu in surprise.

"This is such a big battle, so of course you have to wear some decent clothes. Brother Chen, you did a good job this time. You should be able to sell this batch of silk cloth and porcelain." Lao Zhu said with a smile.

"Oh?" Chen Mo waved his hand to signal everyone not to be nervous.

Several Xianbei people rode horses and walked around Chen Mo's carriage. They stared at Batagan for a long time, frowned at everyone and said in half-baked Chinese: "Who is the leader here?"

"I am!" Chen Moce immediately stepped forward, looked at the person in front of him, and smiled.

"This man is a slave." The other party pointed at Batagan with his whip.

"I bought it." Chen Mo nodded, looked at Batagan, and saw Batagan lowered his head, looked at the man and smiled: "I wonder what I call this person?"

"My name is Akun, and I am a warrior here. Do you have silk in these goods?" The other party looked at Chen Mo for a few times, and was a little surprised at Chen Mo's youth. Then he looked at Chen Mo's truck and asked.

"There is no silk, only silk cloth and porcelain. How about A Kun Warrior?" Chen Mo asked with a smile.

"Silk cloth?" A Kun frowned and said, "What's the price?"

"I have twelve pieces of silk cloth here, all of which are made of fine materials. One piece of silk cloth can be exchanged for a horse or an ox." Chen Mo said with a smile.

"It's too expensive." A Kun frowned and said, "How about I give you ten horses in exchange for all your goods?"

"I don't bring much porcelain, but it's not that cheap. If I have ten horses, I can give you all the silk cloth." Chen Mo shook his head and said, "But if you are willing to add five more horses, I can

I'll give you all the goods, including some dried meat and beautiful clothes."

"Porcelain is useless to us." A Kun frowned. They live a nomadic life and move frequently. Porcelain is easy to break, so for them, this thing is a consumable.

"The value of things will change with the time." Chen Mo shook his head and said: "I heard that you are preparing to entertain distinguished guests. If you can have this batch of porcelain, it will definitely make the distinguished guests feel more elegant.

Fifteen horses are not a loss. You have to know that although these porcelains are not much, if they are sent to the Western Regions, the kings will definitely be willing to pay a higher price in exchange for these porcelains."

Lao Zhu on the side was secretly stunned when he heard this. The little brother really dared to speak. How dare he ask for five horses for a box of porcelain and some sundries? The most important thing is that A Kun actually agreed with Chen Mo and talked to Chen Mo.
