Finest Servant

No one can answer this question. At least, Lao Hu and Lao Gao couldn't answer. As the sky was approaching dusk, the back of the Khan with the Golden Knife, under the guard of the cavalry, gradually drifted away and disappeared in the golden afterglow.

The surrounding barbarians gradually dispersed, and some masked warriors had already been surrounded by girls, singing and singing, and countless garlands were presented. There are also a few more beautiful ones who looked at the Yuezhi tribe shyly, wanting to rush over to send flowers, but lacked the courage.

After all, the Yue clan is the tribe appointed by the Golden Knife Khan. The most powerful warrior, of course, has to be selected first by the beautiful and intelligent Great Khan. The rest will be their turn.

"Brother Lin, look, these barbarian girls are staring at you without batting an eye!" Lao Gao smiled lewdly and said, "As long as you call me to warm the bed, the beauty lying on the grass tonight will be gone immediately." It will pile up into mountains, hehe!"

The Dahua knights surrounding General Lin laughed loudly, and the atmosphere was extremely relaxed. The Goat Picking Tournament was originally a traditional game of the barbarians, with strong opponents like forests and warriors gathered, every time it would be an inextricable fight. It's just the most surprising thing this year. No one would have imagined that the sheep picking competition that the Hu people are proud of would allow a lone Dahua army who went deep into the grassland to pretend to be the leader, and it would attract the favor of so many Turkic girls. Is there anything more interesting than this? !

Not only that, even Tu Suozuo, the famous Turkic right king in the grassland, was defeated by General Lin. Although that method is a bit despicable and wretched, but such things as going to battle have nothing to do with being upright. He is a hero if he wins, and Tu Suozuo has nothing to say when he loses! All in all, today's battle is a big profit!

Lin Wanrong shook his head, and said hey: "Looking for a bed warmer? Brother Gao, you should go by yourself! I am a person who has always been abstinent and regards beauty as dung, everyone knows-but. But again. "He looked around a few times, and sighed regretfully: "It is not easy to find some dung from these Turkic girls!"

Gao Chief nodded sympathetically, laughed and said: "It doesn't matter, turn off the lights, everyone will be the same! Open your eyes and see, wow, there is a lot of dung!"

Old Gao this fellow. He even spoke with an obscene taste, no matter what kind of goods, he would never refuse anyone who came, Hu Bugui was delighted to hear it,

After joking a few words, Lin Wanrong looked around. As the sun set and dusk fell, dozens of tribes who were eligible to enter Kizil ran back and forth on the grassland without even taking off their hoods. Let's sing and celebrate the victory. But more Hu people did not have the chance to enter the capital. They quietly set up their tents, packed their bags, and rushed back to their tribe overnight.

For these losers, the only way to gain the respect and appreciation of other tribes is to do it all over again next year.

The steeds on the prairie neighed for a long time, coming and going non-stop, but most of them went. Very few come. The Turks who failed left sadly,

There are only a dozen tribes with three or four hundred people left, including the Yuezhi. There are traces of leftover hay and camp left by horses everywhere. It was a mess. As the sound of people fell, the grassland was noisy all day long. Instantly calmed down.

Tens of thousands of wolf riders who were originally stationed outside the city had already entered the city with Yu Jia, and the surroundings were quiet and empty. The sheep gathering is over. Naturally, the Turkic cavalry no longer needed to be stationed outside the city, which was expected.

Looking at the more than thirty brothers around him, they have grown several times compared to the dozen or so people who were holding the sheep before. They are all secret whistles cruising around, carefully selected by Hu Bugui, and everyone can say a few words Turkic. Lin Wanrong nodded: "Brother Hu, is everyone here?!"

"It's all here!" Hu Bugui blinked and said with a smile: "General, thanks to your blessing this time, our dozens of brothers can enter the city in a fair manner."

All tribes that have won more than three games can enter Kizil and share the feast held by the Great Khan, which is naturally a matter of course. Only how to act after entering the city is a big problem.

According to his previous plan, the Goat Picking Conference is an annual grand event for the barbarians. It is warm and grand, and there must be countless princes and dignitaries gathered in the royal court. The Turkic cavalry were protecting the Khan and the dignitaries outside the city. They were nervous and tired from running around, so the city defenses were naturally prone to flaws. And tonight, Kizil is reveling all night for the so-called sheep gathering. As long as he finds a way to create some chaos, quickly occupy the top of the city, open the gate, and 5,000 cavalry take advantage of the fact that the Hu people have not yet realized it, and attack them with the momentum of thunder. The Turkic palace caught him off guard. Once the royal palace is seized, the Turkic Khan and all the powerful dignitaries are captured, Kizil's soul will be taken away, and the Turkic royal court will naturally fall, and the Hu people will also be destroyed without attack.

Although the abacus was well done, it was just that too many accidents happened in the middle. Inexplicably, they had a battle with King You, and the Yue Clan also won the first place in the sheep picking conference. Now they are no longer that unknown and weak tribe, but the focus of everyone's attention, leaving them with far less room to play than before. widened. But no matter what, under the current situation, sneaking into Kizil is the only way they can choose.

"It may not be a blessing to enter the city with integrity." Lin Wanrong sighed and said to himself.

Old Hu understood his difficulty, and whispered in his ear, "Don't worry, General, Xu Zhen is already on his way with the remaining thousands of brothers. Even if it doesn't work, we can attack the city directly, the big deal Even if we die, didn’t we talk about it when we came out? Even if we can’t kill the barbarians, we still have to scare them to death—”

Hearing what the old nonsense said was interesting, Lin Wanrong chuckled and felt a little relieved. Hu Bugui glanced around mysteriously for a few times, then lowered his voice and said, "There is one more thing I'm embarrassed to tell you, just now when we were picking up the sheep, the rest of the brothers took advantage of the opportunity of the Hu people to watch the competition, from now on A lot of tung oil was caught in the nearby tribes, and now they are all carried on horseback. Think about it, Kizil is singing and dancing tonight, and welcoming the heroes who are carrying sheep. Then? A smoldering fire horse sprang out from anywhere. Hehe, what would that be like!"

"Really?!" Lin Wanrong was overjoyed, and hurriedly looked at the war horse next to him. Several bamboo tubes several feet long were hung on both sides of the Turkic horse's belly, covered with cloth bags, which seemed to weigh quite a lot.

"Oh." Gao Chief listened to it for a long time, then rounded his mouth with joy and said, "Good old Hu, you have learned to steal oil!"

"What kind of stealing?" Hu Bugui gave him an annoyed look, "Go to other people's tents while there is no one around, and grab some oil and water by the way. Is this stealing? This is called fishing! Go back and find a teacher, Mr. Gao. Learn to read and write again!"

"Yes, yes. It's fishing for money, not stealing money." Lin Wanrong laughed, feeling relieved. With these dozens of fire horses, even if I can't take down Kizil, I will make a big mess of it!

Gao Chief suddenly thought of something, and said anxiously: "Even if we have fire horses, the Turkic cavalry of ten thousand people have also entered the city. If they block the gate of the palace, we will be outnumbered and difficult to fight!"

Lin Wanrong patted him on the shoulder. Smiling and shaking his head: "Brother Gao, we are not comparing numbers with them, we are comparing whose movements are faster! Look, that is the Turkic Palace-

He pointed, and the two high chieftains looked in the direction of his finger. In the dark red sunset, the rough city wall of Kizil was clearly visible. Not far from the city wall, a few corners were red and green, golden The pavilions with yellow eaves are clearly visible. Compared with the surrounding low buildings. It looks so noble and dazzling.

"Judging from the layout of the city of Kizil, the palace is not far from the city gate. This is unimaginable in our Dahua. It seems that the Turkic people are not very proficient in city building!"

Hu Bugui nodded when he heard that, the capitals of all dynasties in China. Which one isn't there are many gates, high halls and thick stones, the Turkic palace has a simple structure. The shape is simple, and it can't even catch up with a mansion in a wealthy province in the south of the Yangtze River.

"Based on the size of those towers, the Turkic palace can accommodate at most 2,000 people, which is already amazing!" Lin Wanrong said with a smile: "So, it is impossible for all the Turkic cavalry to be stationed inside. , They must still have a military camp in the city. Since it is a military camp, it will be far away from the palace!"

"But how far is the distance?!" Lao Gao frowned, this is the crux of the problem.

"It's very simple." General Lin spread his hands and said, "Brother Gao, if you were a Turkic Khan with 10,000 cavalry around you, how far would you like to put it?!"

"Of course, the closer the better!" Lao Gao answered smoothly, then thought for a while, and then said: "That's not right, these 10,000 people are not a small number, they are real swords and guns, if they are too close, who would dare Guarantee that none of them wants to rebel?!"

Lin Wanrong said hehe: "This is a common problem of emperors. They desire military power, but are afraid of rebellion as soldiers, so we must keep an appropriate distance. Another point, don't forget, these ten thousand elites are Tu Suozuo's clansmen. !!!”

Understood! Hu Bugui and Gao Chief were surprised at the same time.

"So, as long as we move fast enough and open the city gate in time, before we rush into the palace, our chances with the Turks are at least half to half! Although there will be great risks, we must do it, Because, that's why we came here!" He waved his hand resolutely, with a murderous look in his eyes: "As long as we win the Turkic Palace, it will be our success!"

Hu Bugui was so excited when he heard this, he clapped his hands hurriedly: "Okay, let's do it! I'll open the city gate tonight!"

"Brother Hu, what's the rush?" Lin Wanrong said with a smile, "I haven't entered the city yet, and I haven't figured out the specific situation inside. It's too early to talk about it. We have a general direction, and we'll just play by ear after entering the city."

It was indeed a little too hasty, Lao Hu smiled embarrassedly.

The night fell slowly, and in the twilight, the grassland was gray, and the wolf flag flying above the city could be seen slightly in the distance. There are tribes that have already won and waited impatiently at the city, ready to enter Kizil. The masks of all the warriors have not been taken off. This is a testimony of honor. They will open it at the banquet in the royal court and enjoy the cheers of all the people.

The gate of the city opened slowly, and the Turkic soldiers guarding the city asked a few words, and the warriors waved triumphantly the flags that marked their own tribes, and the journey was unimpeded.

Kizil is located deep in the Alxa grassland and has never been attacked. The Turkic people have sufficient confidence in their own strength, and the lax defense is understandable.

Hu Bugui whispered: "Shall we enter now?!"

Lin Wanrong looked at the sky and shook his head slightly: "Going in now will only become the focus of other people's attention, so let's wait."

Gao Chief let out a hey: "Brother Lin, I have been wondering about something for a long time. How did you see through Yu Jia's tricks on the horse?"

Old Hu immediately turned his head at this question, obviously, he didn't understand the reason.

General Lin said with a smile: "Is this the truth? It's actually quite simple. Horses, like us, have noses, eyes, mouths, and legs. They are all sensory organs. The green horse refused to hold its hooves, so it must be one of them." Something went wrong. So, I looked at the horse's legs first, and then the facial features. The legs were fine, but the horse's ears and eyes were the most obvious. Yujia had a hard time doing her hands and feet. The rest was just the nose and mouth. "

Makes sense! Hu Bugui nodded and asked puzzled, "Then how do you judge that she tampered with her nose, not her mouth?"

"I have to thank Tu Suozuo for this." Lin Wanrong nodded and smiled: "When his subordinates were feeding the grass, I paid attention to it. The pony was wearing a bit, but it still kept moving forward. This shows that, There is no problem with its mouth, at least there is no serious problem. Therefore, the horse's nose is the easiest to manipulate and the hardest to find. Yujia sprinkled a kind of The medicinal powder made of flowers and plants, I smell some faint aroma, but for the horse, this smell may be what it hates. So, you can whip it and it won’t go away! I thought of a way, pour water on it On its nose, the powder melted, the smell faded, and it became a normal horse again! Then, I secretly rubbed some aphrodisiac on her horse, and rubbed some on my horse's buttocks, so, She ran after me. Hehe, it's that simple!"

"Smell the scent and know the horse? Brother Lin, you have such a powerful nose!" Lao Gao raised his finger in praise, his face full of envy.

Hu Bugui shook his head and sighed. These principles are easy to say, and almost everyone can do it, but not everyone can do it. Others scolded General Lin for being only lip service, and thought that everything he owned was just for lip service, and that would be to look at him superficially.

"Oops!" Hu Bugui was still in deep thought, when General Lin exclaimed, "I know why Yujia wants to ride my horse!"
