Yang Tiet I couldn't help but wonder, could it be that their whereabouts were revealed when they were staying last night, and their mounts were poisoned by the villains in Dongchang, leaving them with nowhere to escape?
It turns out that Yang Tiexin has never escaped. When he was in Shandong, he and his adopted brother Guo Xiaotian were hunted by Dongchang and fled for three days and three nights.
He ran away barefoot and had so much internal strength that he could run for three days and three nights without rest, faster than a galloping horse.
He was able to set up ambushes on the way and kill Dongchang Fanzi who was chasing him. His wisdom, patience, perseverance, and determination were all second to none. He was often already 800 miles away as soon as the enemy found his traces. .
But with the family papers and worries, Yang Tiexin knew that he couldn't run away.
Because his wife in the car and the blood in his belly were like an invisible thread, worrying about him, telling him that he had nowhere to escape, and he would never escape. So when he was young, he could run around for three days and three nights without stopping. Now, after just one night without a good rest, he was worried about whether Bao Xiruo was feeling unwell and whether Li Pinghuai was still stable.
Yang Tiexin looked calm and calm on the surface, but in fact he was anxious inside.
Because he knows how the eyes and ears of the two factories and one hall are all over the world, and a dragnet may be slowly opening in front of them.
Yang Tiexin used the remaining two horses to pull the cart. He released the two weak horses on the roadside and let them lower their heads to eat grass. If the two horses were driven hard, they could drive them for another half day. Hundreds of miles can be run during the day, but this requires internal strength to stimulate the horse's Achilles' heel and stimulate its potential.
When Yang Tiexin was a horseman in the early years, he also relied on a horse to come and go like the wind. A Yang family gun on the horse was unstoppable. Therefore, he was also a horse lover and really couldn't do this.
Han Baoju followed the carriage of the Guo and Yang families from a distance. He even led the two Qingtang horses abandoned by Yang Tiexin. These were the good horses from the northwest that entered the Central Plains in large numbers after the Song Dynasty destroyed Xixia and regained Hexi. Although It was not the eight sweat-blooded Dawan horses that he carefully raised, nor was it the black-blooded horse that he sat on, which was a mixture of Dawan Tianma and local famous horses. But among the people, a Qingtang horse is worth nearly a thousand guan.
" Han Baoju is a horse fanatic, and he really can't bear to see such a good horse being casually led by the villagers to pull goods.
The daily food for such a good horse requires one dou of fine grain and one stone of clean fodder I'm afraid it's not as good as the rations of ordinary people. A good horse is worth thousands of gold, and the cost of raising a horse is probably not much higher. In addition to the court eagle dogs that work for the government, they can stay overnight in official posts all over the world, and the post soldiers will provide official materials to raise horses. When folk martial arts people go out on horseback, they usually ride rough-fed short Mongolian horses or Central Plains horses.
Only the East and West Liangchang, the emperor's royal eagle dogs, and a group of eunuchs who helped the emperor manage his family's wealth, could have such skill to equip their own lackeys with eagle talons and match them with such a rare good horse among the people.
The forces of Six Gates and Two Factories and One Hall relied on the bloated government agencies of the Song Dynasty all over the world to extend their influence along this huge network to every corner of the Song Dynasty. There are six gates and two factories to work on. They ride good horses selected by horse supervisors from all over the country. They live in comfortable and safe official posts. They come and go with local Baojia, Yaqian, Lizheng, household heads, township clerks, and elders. , archers, young men, and catchers serve as the eyes and ears. Even restaurants, real estate, shops, and markets in various places are mostly government-run.
Wherever there are people, there are always people from the government.
¡°Every transaction, travel, and accommodation must be dealt with with the government. Unless you escape to the deep mountains and old forests, it is really impossible to travel to the heart of the Song Dynasty without Liumen and Dongxichang knowing about it.
Yang Tiexin smiled bitterly facing the Cao'e River. The Cao'e River is one of the tributaries of Hangzhou Bay. It was named after Cao E entered the river to save his father. The southeast is the prosperous place of the Song Dynasty, so there are several bridges on the Cao'e River, including ancient stone bridges. There are also iron bridges built in recent years. It is naturally convenient for ordinary people to cross the bridge, but only wanted people like Yang Tiexin have trouble crossing the river.
Any bridge that can pass vehicles must collect taxes. There are subordinate officials on the bridge to collect bridge taxes. They must also strictly inspect the goods and collect toll taxes based on the price of the goods. A small bridge that cannot pass cars actually has to collect a bridge tax per person, and a ferry tax and parking fee in short, ten thousand taxes and ten thousand taxes.
"There are people from the government on the bridges!" Yang Tiexin drove around in a circle and found that every bridge was closely inspected by police officers.
The Horse King Divine Catcher followed them all the way, but it did not prevent him from informing the six local sects. Han Baoju knew that Yang Tiexin was a peerless master who could be defeated by ten thousand people, so he summoned the ordinary detectives from the six local sects to besiege him, but it was just a futile attempt. Increase casualties. Therefore, he only asked them to tightly block the station bridge and waterway pass while he calmly waited for the six sworn brothers.My brother came.
The Seven Heroes of Jiangnan also had many scruples in handling the case. Previously, Dongchang killed thousands of villagers in Niujia Village in order to capture the Guo and Yang brothers. They felt that Guo and Yang were crazy. They would rather act cautiously and let him escape than do what Dongchang did. Like this, it affects innocent people.
Before Han Baoju was captured by the God of Horses, Ke Zhen'e, the flying eagle, told him not to move lightly when he found Yang Tiexin and Guo Xiaotian, especially in places where pedestrians were coming and going and people were coming in and out, so as not to be forced by Yang Tiexin. When in a desperate situation, he kidnapped passers-by and harmed innocent people.
Although the Cao'e River is not wide, it is still a big river. It is not difficult for Guo Xiaotian, Yang Tiexin, and even Bao Xiruo to cross the river. However, Li Ping, a village woman who has never practiced martial arts, is in danger if she wants to cross the Cao'e River. In the winter, the river was bone-chillingly cold. How could Guo Xiaotian dare to let Li Ping wade across the river?
Guo Xiaotian said: "I'm going to find a boat!"
Bao Xiruo and Yang Tiexin in the car said in unison: "No!" Yang Tiexin sighed: "Brother Guo Xian, this time is different from the past. We are not going fast, and the Dongchang court has strict ears and eyes, so we don't know that there is no ambush. The mountains and forests on this ground On the small road, Dongchang's hawks and dogs are coming. At worst, we two brothers will kill each other, but on the waterway, if we are ambushed by Dongchang."
"It's easy for us brothers to talk, but what about the wife I'm waiting for?"
Bao Xiruo also said: "If we encounter Dongchang's gangsters in the river, how can we protect my sister-in-law even if our martial arts are ten times better?"
Guo Xiaotian frowned: "What should we do?"
Yang Tiexin said: "There are many people on the bridge during the day. I'm worried that if someone breaks through, they will use their hands to hurt innocent people. The bridge will be closed at night. There are no people coming and going, so we will just break through!"
Guo Xiaotian was worried: "I'm afraid we can't hide our whereabouts from anyone who cares. If we can't leave quickly, I'm afraid there will be an ambush from all sides."
Li Ping was in a bad mood in the car. After hearing this, she cheered up and said: "Uncle, outsiders. My health is really dragging you down. Hide me at a nearby farmhouse. You go first. Come back to pick me up after the news has passed. Sister Bao I haven¡¯t shown my pregnancy yet, and I¡¯m in good health and can keep up with you. I¡¯m just a burden, so don¡¯t delay me any longer.¡±
Bao Xiruo shook his head and said, "Sister Hutu, don't you know what Dongchang is?"
"If it falls into their hands, Brother Guo will not worry about it, but he will be used and framed by them."
Li Ping whispered quietly: "Sister, I will not fall into the hands of Dongchang."
When Bao Xiruo heard this, he knew that Li Ping was determined to die, and said flatly: "Sister, don't mention this. I'll kill every one of those little boys in Dongchang, and I'll kill a pair of them. Even if they have no way out, they will die." They want to die together. We just exchanged tokens before, doesn¡¯t sister want to see with her own eyes the scene of them becoming sworn brothers or falling in love with each other when they grow up? "
After all, they were not in danger at this time. Li Ping just nodded and said: "If I can see them grow up safely, I will die immediately, and I will be happy and have no regrets!"
Bao Xiruo said in the car: "I just saw it, the newly built iron bridge is the widest. We parked the car nearby at Lingzhong, and when the sun set and the bridge was closed, we went to cross the bridge"
Han Baoju shook his head at the two local policemen beside him and said: "First withdraw half of the people from the river and tell them to rest immediately. Half of the people who were ambushing on the bridge were also withdrawn first. It seems that they are not planning to cross the river by boat. I'm afraid that we won't take action until the evening. My six sworn brothers will arrive in the afternoon. Tell your brothers to cheer up tonight! All the efforts will be completed in one battle"
As the sun gradually passed by and turned westward, on the official road near the upper Yu section of the Cao'e River, a group of six knights galloped past with the clatter of horse hooves.
The pedestrians on the road have gradually become sparse, mostly farmers returning home at dusk and merchants on their way. Among the six knights, the leader is a man about forty years old, with pointed cheeks and a rather ferocious look. He suddenly reined in his horse and looked ahead from a distance. In the open area, the Cao'e River flows past. The five people following behind also reined in their horses in time A scholarly scribe next to him said: "Brother Han sent me a letter on the way, and I have plans. Brother, Yang Tiexin's martial arts is extraordinary. It is said that he has the power of the reincarnation of the overlord. .¡±
"So you can't be reckless, you can only be smart!"
A woman beside him who was touching the head of his beloved horse to dredge his blood said with a smile: "Brother Zhu is very resourceful and must have found a way!"
Zhu Cong laughed, unfolded the iron fan and said: "Seventh sister, since we want to capture the overlord, of course we have to use an ambush from all sides."
"Ambush on all sides, and then besieged on all sides. This Cao'e River is where Yang Tiexin's Wujiang River collapsed!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
