- Soon, Luo Dazhi, the governor of Bazhou, invited Zhao Chen to have a talk at his residence.
¡°Captain Luo, how is the situation of the Tibetan people near Bazhou?¡±
Luo Dazhi shook his head: "We are not optimistic. The tigers are entrenched in the mountains and forests, hiding their bodies, and it is difficult to find traces. We can only defend passively. Unless the opponent takes the initiative to attack the city or initiate a decisive battle, otherwise, we will also There¡¯s nothing you can do about them.¡±
Zhao Chen asked again: "What's the situation between the Xue people and the local people?"
"Well, the people near Bazhou are also being invaded by the tigers. Moreover, the tigers are becoming more and more courageous now. They even dare to rob the government carriages. Almost no caravans are spared. I predict that in a while, the nearby people will be attacked. The Hu people are about to rebel collectively, and I will report it to Your Majesty when the time comes. Unexpectedly, Your Majesty is so wise that he sent your consort in advance."
Zhao Chen smiled and said: "The nearby wolf people are mainly ruled by three groups of wolf kings. Did you know?"
Luo Dazhi nodded: "I know this, but I have never seen those three beast kings. I can't see them at all."
After a chat, the situation in Bazhou is basically the same as that in Kuizhou.
At the end, Luo Dazhi smiled again and said: "Consort, if there is any news, I will notify you as soon as possible and try to eradicate all the beasts near Bazhou!"
Because the cities in the Tang Dynasty were not like today. Even now, near the highway outside the city, there are basically mountains and rivers, let alone the Tang Dynasty.
After leaving the Governor's Mansion, Zhao Chen could only adopt the previous strategy and go to other common people's places to understand the situation.
With Xue Rengui and a few guards, Zhao Chen arrived at a settlement far away in Bazhou.
The people in the settlements here are not as enthusiastic about outsiders as they were in Kuizhou before.
Zhao Chen did not dress up as a caravan this time and walked directly to an old man who was farming.
"Old man, can you give me a drink of water?"
The old man glanced at Zhao Chen, then looked at the official uniforms of the soldiers behind Zhao Chen, and said hum.
The water was delivered, and Zhao Chen asked while drinking: "Hey, old man, how are you living here recently?"
"good."
"Is there any harassment from the beasts?"
The old man shook his head: "No."
Zhao Chen said, "Then you have never thrown away any of your cattle or sheep, right?"
"No, the wild beasts don't dare to come."
Seeing that the old man cherished his words like gold, Zhao Chen went to ask the others.
Xue Rengui, who was behind Zhao Chen, also looked around the settlement and found that the people farming nearby were all looking at him, but the looks were not like curiosity, but a little wary.
Soon, after leaving the settlement, Zhao Chen frowned slightly: "Something's not right."
Xue Rengui also said: "Mr. Zhao, they seem to be on guard against us."
Zhao Chen opened the folding fan: "It's a bit interesting that the people in a settlement are so wary of the officers and soldiers."
When he went to the settlement near Kuizhou City before, the people were not so vigilant. He could also feel it from the people on the other side who cherished their words like gold.
This is strange.
??We are all Han, yet so vigilant?
¡°Go to the next settlement.¡±
Zhao Chen went to the second and third settlements, and found that the people here were similar, with a sense of indifference.
After returning to Bazhou, Zhao Chen pondered for a while, and the next day, he dressed up as a caravan again and went to a settlement.
This time, the people became normal.
Zhao Chen also took the opportunity to chat.
"Hey fellow, it's been hard to do business recently. We came from Chang'an and wanted to collect a lot of mountain goods, but we heard that there are too many robbers."
The common man said: "You have come to the wrong place. It's not that there aren't many mountain products here, but that it's simply not possible to do business here."
Zhao Chen was confused: ¡°Why, is it because of the beasts in the mountains?¡±
The common people hesitated to speak: "Yes, but it is not entirely their fault. Stop buying mountain products and go back to do other business. The caravan will be robbed."
Zhao Chen let out a sigh and said, "Then I have no choice but to go back. By the way, do you know where they hang out?"
The people suddenly became wary: "Why do you ask this?"
"It's nothing, I just want to take a detour. I'm not worried about them robbing us."
The people laughed and said, "Just follow the official path."?As long as it's not a caravan. "
After leaving the settlement, Zhao Chen felt more and more that his expression was strange.
He returned to Bazhou City in deep thought, and at this time, Governor Luo came over excitedly.
"Consort, my scouts here have found traces of the Hu people!"
"oh?"
"Consort, we can't miss this opportunity. Let's go and exterminate the beasts now. If the beasts escape this time, we don't know when they will be brought to justice."
Zhao Chen thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, Shangguan Huairen, count some of the troops and horses, and go with us."
"yes."
Soon, Shangguan Huairen counted two thousand soldiers and set off on bicycles with Governor Luo's troops.
During the march, Luo Dazhi looked back curiously, and when he saw those bicycles, his expression was a little strange.
Zhao Chen smiled and said: "Don't be surprised, Governor Luo, this is a substitute for horses. In the mountains, horses are not particularly easy to use, but bicycles are good."
"It seems that we are in a closed place like Jiannan, but we didn't know that Chang'an has such a novel thing."
Luo Dazhi smiled.
Marching all the way, we soon arrived at the whereabouts of the Hu people mentioned by Governor Luo.
Zhao Chen observed this place and saw that both sides were on high terrain, somewhat similar to a valley. Further ahead, there was a relatively narrow passage.
Zhao Chen frowned and ordered: "Stop."
Governor Luo turned around: "What's wrong, Prince Consort?"
The marching team also stopped.
"Let the scouts go check it out first. I always feel uneasy inside."
Zhao Chen has seen this kind of terrain too many times. It¡¯s all shown in TV dramas and they are all good ambush locations.
Governor Luo nodded and asked the scout to go and investigate. The scout walked directly through the passage, but nothing happened.
¡°Consort, it¡¯s okay.¡±
Zhao Chen pointed to the mountains on both sides not far away: "Send someone to check there."
"good."
Governor Luo once again sent scouts forward, but this time, before the scouts had gone far, a cold arrow was shot from the mountains on both sides.
Whoosh!
The cold arrow penetrated the scout's neck, and the scout fell to the ground helplessly.
Governor Luo was stunned for a moment. There was no need for him to shout. Everyone was already on alert. At this moment, figures on the mountains on both sides stood up one after another.
"Protect Mr. Zhao!"
Xue Rengui growled.
Zhao Chen raised his head and looked at the mountains on both sides. They were all famous people, and on the left, there was a very special person.
That's a woman.
Among the beastmen wearing animal skins, this woman was wearing green clothes, with cold eyes, looking down at herself and others from a distance.
Then, she waved her hand.
Countless beastmen bent their bows and set arrows, and arrows came like rain! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
