Chapter 0111 Thousands of horses in the south of the Yangtze River
It is the same Dahua cavalry, but it is a little different from ordinary Dahua cavalry. In Shipei Town, a hundred riders roared. The people on their back tied a handle that was not Dahua-style and rarely seen narrow-edged saber, but no one was equipped with a long bow or cavalry crossbow with Dahua's basic configuration, but some cavalry horses hung a strange steel gong on their shoulders. Fire gong is already very common in Dahua, but this kind of gong is not Long, the tray is also a very strange flat square, so that people can see the difference at a glance. Moreover, all the cavalry with steel bullets also carry an extra leather satrapnel bag. Experienced people will guess that this should be an ammunition bag containing gunpowder cans and bullets.
One hundred rides is not much, even if the costume is a little strange, it is not too special. However, after a while, another hundred horses roared by. More than a dozen waves passed, which was quite unusual. Many people began to talk curiously, and even began to bet on how many teams would go there today, or what they were going to do. In this land south of the Yangtze River, near Yingtianfu, what makes these Dahua cavalry so popular?
Zhuo Fan was in the last group. With him were the president Bai Bing and the deputy leader Xing Tianhu. Zhou Tong was naturally there, and Xiao Shitou also followed him. Xiaoshi is now the head of a class, with the communication class directly under the Dragon Rider who is responsible for the uploading and distribution of the command center. According to him, now he can find any buttocks to kick.
These two thousand iron riders suddenly appeared like foreign tourists, which quickly attracted the attention of all parties from Xuzhou City, Fengyangfu to Nanjing Yingtianfu.
Luzhou Prefecture first learned the news, but since it was a Dahua cavalry, and although it was patrolling at high speed, it did not make any unusual move. Song Jian, the governor of Luzhou, appeased the local departments of the emergency report, but at the same time, he was a little annoyed. As a local dignitary, I still don't know where this soldier belongs and what he wants to do, and no one gives me a notice. It is absolutely impossible for the local Ministry of Health. It's good for those peasants to fill their stomachs. How can they have this spirit? Then it is the soldiers and horses guarded by Ying Tianfu. He has not heard of any war. It is likely that it is just a daily exercise. Thinking of those bureaucrats in Yingtian Mansion, Song Jian has a big head. Those people are simply better than the princes and nobles of Shuntian Mansion. Therefore, I don't care about them, as long as I don't mess around on my own territory.
These left-behind ministers in Yingtianfu are the whole class. They are the backup of Beijing Normal University. In fact, they are just making appearances. These individuals are also crooked melons, pears and dates that the emperor does not like. But these left-behind ministers don't think so. The daily deliberations and so on are all the same. Of course, what they can discuss is just some trivial things in Tianfu. However, the topic of this day was a little interesting. A tough iron horse appeared around Yingtianfu, and I don't know which soldier and horse it was. The left-behind ministers discussed for a long time, but there was no conclusion. They wanted to check it out. Unfortunately, the backup of the capital did not have any soldiers. It was good for Ying Tianfuwei to manage the public security in the city. As for the defense departments of nearby provinces, it is nominally managed by local government agencies, but except for the imperial court, the power used for mobilization is in the hands of provincial governors or vassals every day, and Yingtianfu does not have any military power.
As for the local defense department, the most afraid of war is those who usually hold hoe soldiers. If there is no military order, as long as they don't fight in their own camp, who cares about these things.
In this way, the local government looked at the Ministry of Guard, and the Ministry of Guard looked at the Ministry of War. Where did the Ministry of War know about your affairs thousands of miles away? Naturally, the extraordinary soldiers and horses were rampant and unimped.
The search has entered the second day. Early this day, at dawn, Zhuo Fan has been on the south of the Yangtze River, which is full of paddy fields and ditches. Behind him is a small stone and a fixed guard composed of hundreds of veterans. Bai Bing and Xing Tianhu have separated from him and personally took one or two battalions to search. Zhuo Fan is eager to bite, how dare everyone neglect it?
Running his horse up a small hill, Zhuo Fan looked at the continuous field village in the morning fog in front of him and was very anxious. He knew that a large net had been spread around him for nearly a hundred miles, but he also knew that there were still too few people to find three people in this densely populated place. After the trip to Yanmen Pass in Shanxi, he has been completely disappointed with the official governance of Dahua. The people can only ask for more blessings. There are some changes. It is better to go to the temple to kowtow and kowtow to rely on the government. Because of this, I am so anxious. In a prosperous era, or at least in a normal era, I will slowly find it and always find it. However, in this place, the government can smuggle food and fodder, guarding the customs and garrison can sell people at the beginning of the troubled times, and wait for death.
The horse's hoofs were rapid, and a fast horse was galloping, and a horse was galloping in the distance.
This is a half-day briefing for the first two battalions. With a trace of hope, Zhuo Fan looked at the battalion's detective horse jumping off the horse and bowed and reported: "Report to the general that the first battalion has turned to the north line, and nothing has been found." A trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes. Zhuo Fan sighed, "I know, confess to the general and proceed as planned. Today In the evening, Baitou Mountain in Fengyang Mansion camped." The horse bowed and saluted, and then jumped over the horse and ran away. At the same time, the second battalion has also arrived, but nothing has been found.
Looking at the two riders who had gone far away, Zhuo Bufan sighed. One half of the range he had set had been searched. More than 2,000 horses had been searched for nearly two days, but still no trace of Fu Wanyu's master and servant and Zhuo Er had been found. Zhou Tong behind him also looked anxious and whispered, "Young master, blame me, that sweat medicine..." As a senior bodyguard, it's really shameful to fall into this dirty trick. It doesn't matter if you are ashamed. You tried your best to save the young master, which is atonement for your sins. However, now you have lost your future mistress, and Zhuo Er. Zhuo Butfan's heart for Fu Wanyu, others don't know, but he still can't know his way. Now his heart is naturally regretful.
Zhuo Fan waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about the past. I just want to know now that the way south after Fengyang is calm, and there is silver in Zhuo Er. It's a long time ago to get into the carriage. Where can this girl go? Let's go and have a look at the town below." Zhuo Fan is no more unruly and relaxed now, because no matter how you look at it, Fu Wanyu and his party must have encountered something. It makes these three living people evaporate like the world.
More than 100 cavalrymen roared down the hill like a storm of fallen leaves and rushed straight into the small town at the foot of the mountain.
