Chapter 10: Gathering in the wilderness, exploring the new city's hero single drive
The next morning, Zhao Jin woke up and saw that the women were already busy. What are you busy with? Hui Niang feeds the horse. Six women picked flexible grass stems and olive branches and leaves, knitted hats and ropes for their brothers. The hat is used to shade the sun, and the rope can tie the prey, which is good for my brother to hunt. By the way, I also weave a whip for my brother.
Zhao Jin looked at it and said happily, "I'm about to go out!" ...Ah, no, we don't have a door. It should be said to travel. Although I'm not going hunting, I need this hat and rope. By the way, you should weave a long and strong rope for me. If I want to go back to the new city, the gate may not be able to get in. Maybe I have to pull the rope to climb up - so I can't be weak!"
The six women heard it and said, "We know."
So Zhao Jin drove the car and let Hui Niang ride and take her to the pool to let her know the direction of the pool. In the early morning, there were many animals of all sizes gathered by the pool. When they saw the huge carriage coming, they were so scared that they ran away. Zhao Yu and Hui Niang were full of water bags and let the horse pulling the cart and gallop drink enough water.
When I went back, the hat had been knitted. Zhao Jin brought it and put it on and said happily, "Good hat! What a coincidence! This style is similar to Lin Chong's hat in Water Margin, but it's green!"
All the women laughed. Although I don't know what Water Margin is, it has been known as a cuckold in ancient times.
Zhao Yu said again, "This whip is also good, very fresh! In case my family is hungry and has nothing to eat, we can let it eat this. By the way, after I leave, you should be careful. Keep the fire, prevent the beasts, and pay attention to it! If you have nothing to do, learn to ride a horse from Hui. In case of an emergency, you can still ride a horse and escape. I will try to return today. If it doesn't work, I will return to these trees tomorrow before sunset tomorrow. Anyway, I hope you are fine, if anything..."
Zhao Yu chattered about care, and the women laughed while working. Originally, Zhao Jin never liked to nag, but now there are so many beautiful and lovely sisters, how can they not pay special attention to it and make themselves become nagging uncles.
The long rope was braided, and Zhao Jin told Hui Niang to lead her sisters and wait for her to go home. Then put on the green hat, put on the green rope, wave the green whip, and set off alone.
The breeze is clear and the sun is shining. When galloping through the high grass, Zhao's feet felt a chill, which was dew. Now that I can also ride a horse, I find that riding is really a very refreshing thing! Ah, if you hold a decent weapon in your hand, follow hundreds of light horses behind, and run forward to the blue sky and the horizon... How heroic!
Benz all the way and take a nap. Finally, I came outside the east gate of the new city. At this time, I could hear the roar of horses' hoofs and footsteps from afar, and I saw a vast team coming out of the gate and marching south. The man and horse ahead have extended to the sky and can't see the end at a glance.
Where are so many people going? Zhao Jin was surprised and didn't know why. Well, they dried theirs, this herb. So Zhao Jin was going to find a chance to go to the city, and he had to hide it before. It's hard to pick up the BMW, don't pick it up for others.
The new city is located on the east bank of a river, and there is another river not far to the west. After the two rivers converge in the south of the new city, they continue to go south and finally flow into the sea. These two rivers were cut off in the desert and formed several seasonal lakes before they converged due to environmental changes in later generations. In this era, the vegetation in the two rivers is abundant, so the new city is located here. Generally speaking, the new city has rich water resources to the west and vast land to the east for farming and grazing, with excellent geographical conditions.
Zhao Jin took the gallop into a small forest, hid, took off his green hat, put down the green whip, picked up the green rope, covered himself with high grass, and moved to the city.
When he approached, he saw that the guards in the city were sparse. Zhao Jin was secretly happy and thought about where to climb. At this time, the allied forces that have been out of the city since early morning have almost left, and the main forces have opened the east gate, leaving only some scattered troops that are still gathering one after another and hurriedly chasing the main force.
It turned out that the East Slavic allied forces basically conquered the new city yesterday, and the defenders were wiped out, leaving only the palace in the hands of Kuo Kuo Gan. At this time, the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, Shataniyev, believed that he should immediately march south and capture the city of Sarai, so that the battle could be ended before the middle of winter. Although the New City Palace has not been conquered, it is full of women. What's difficult for women to deal with? There are not many of them, and leaving 10,000 soldiers is absolutely enough to deal with them! Shalai is the capital of the Golden Horde, and we must do our best to ensure the capture.
It is late autumn, and it should not be too late. Otherwise, in winter, ice and snow will be detrimental to military operations. Most of the kings and nobles of the coalition agreed with Shataniev and dared not disobey those who disagreed. For example, the ignorant boy Sviatoslav really wants to take down the palace and enjoy it happily. He really doesn't want to continue to fight hard, but forced by his uncle's majesty, he has to raise his head to look at the palace reluctantly and bow his head on the road...
So hundreds of thousands of allied troops were vast, and they opened the South Gate and the East Gate that day, and the troops divided into two routes and marched towards Shalai.
When Zhao Jin saw that the brigade was gradually moving away, he thought, "The departure of the army is really eye-catching. If only I had come earlier. The guards in the city must have taken care of it and found me. But it doesn't matter. It's not too late now. If you don't climb the wall at this time, when will you stay?" After thinking about it, the cat moved to the bottom of the wall to observe. Oh... It seems that the rope is white. There are also ladders set up by the coalition forces when they attack the city on the outer wall, which have not been removed, and no one is watching. Zhao Jin swung and climbed up.
Unexpectedly, a guard came a little far away. Zhao Jin will be found if he wants to jump out. It's the same whether he stays or withdraws on the ladder, unless he jumps down, but he is afraid of breaking his leg. For a moment of embarrassment, Zhao was anxious and intelligent. He simply climbed up generously, pointed his hand in front of the guard and shouted, "Tar, over there!" The guard was surprised and couldn't help looking at Zhao Yu's point. Later, Zhao Jin immediately approached with an arrow and strangled the guard's neck with a rope!
The guard was strangled and bleeding and killed on the spot. Bloody! But there is nothing we can do. This herb doesn't like to kill people. Who makes people like to find this herb?
After all, the rope is still not white. Zhao Jin immediately tied the rope to the pheasant and climbed the rope down to the city. As for later, there may be patrol guards running to find fallen companions and hanging green ropes... Never mind, step by step!
At this time, in the new city, the main army was launched, and the left-behind people were busy surrounding the palace and guarding the trophies that could walk and could not walk everywhere. Zhao Jin dodged and lurked forward. Hearing many left-behind Dongsi soldiers talking about yesterday's horse thief, he couldn't help laughing.
Yesterday, when the siege reached the final stage, the most interesting thing was to break through a Biao army and horse thieves. Dongsi soldiers are talking about the death of a soldier who broke through the siege, and all of them are superb in martial arts, but after all, they are outnumbered. Finally, with the personal chairman of the most heroic Duke of Danil and the assistance of the Grand Dulleess, most of them were annihilated and a small number of them were captured. The horse thief was even more amazing. He took a woman and swaggered away the BMW of the Marquis of Okjanosha. BMW is the best horse we have ever heard of! Horse thieves can not only steal horses, but also throw arrows and hurt knights, which scares the Marquis and many pursuers to stop. That guy is really the most powerful thief we have ever heard of!
Zhao Jin secretly laughed at the Dongsi soldiers talking about himself, secretly studying how to sneak into the labor camp and pull out a group of people... At this time, he heard a noisy place in the north.
It turns out that something is happening on the campus located in the northeast of the new city. This is to behead the prisoners captured yesterday to show their military prestige! Not only that, there are also many civilian onlookers at the scene, which can be a good publicity.
When the army in the East fights, civilians are generally in touch with fear. Since the beginning of the Crusades, the West has formed a habit of civilians often accompanying the army. Many civilians, unable to make a living because of poverty, heard of honey butter everywhere in the east, and believed in God's blessing, so they marched with the army. This tradition has been the same until the era of great navigation and the era of colonial global. As soon as the army set out, civilians followed, far away from their poor and unable to support their hometowns, and to explore new happy land!
Now the East Slavic coalition besieged the new city, and many civilians followed them to the new city. The desire to escape from the miserable life and find a rich place to settle down has overcome the fear of war. Anyway, if you don't migrate, you will die. Instead of staying in your hometown and dying chronically in the cold, it's better to take risks and find a developed opportunity! As a result, many small businessmen followed the army to do some business. More ragged civilians dragged their homes and used carts to push shabby furniture and production tools into the new city.
Today, when the prisoners were beheaded on the school grounds, civilians were called to watch. I heard that Saint Catherine is also coming to the scene, and civilians are rushing to come to see it!
Catherine, a noblewoman in Vladimir, was determined to serve God at a young age and insisted on being a nun. She was very determined. The family had no choice but to obey their wishes. When Catherine grew up, she was extremely beautiful. Many romantic nobles fell in love with her and tried their way to seduce her, but she was unswerving, so her reputation was even more famous. Shataniev, Daniel and others planned to organize a coalition against the Golden Horde, and felt that this event was not a small matter and must be in the name of God! So they carried out Catherine, a famous and good nun, claiming that this was Saint Catherine. Under the instructions of God, they came to guide mortals and take everyone out of the rule of the Tatar devil and live a happy life!
This trick is very useful! Throughout history, a strong appeal can often be established in the name of religion. In the East, there are Wudou Rice Road, Ming Religion, etc., and in the West and the Middle East, they also like to engage in jihad in the name of religion. Since ancient times, under the banner of jihad, many countries and nations have been reunited to fight fearlessly!
Therefore, the reason why the East Slavic coalition forces can gather and dare to challenge the Golden Horde, Saint Catherine has really played a significant role, even a key role. Shataniev and Daniel were inspired by the deeds of the Catholic crusaders in the past. Why don't we Orthodox Church do this? The Catholic Crusaders can even regard children in their teens as "messengers of God" and gather tens of thousands of "holy and flawless" children to serve as the leader of jihad! This is the history of the previous Crusades. Shataniev and Danil painted the gourd in the same way, publicizing that Saint Catherine was the messenger of God, calling on the monarchs, nobles, soldiers and civilians of East Slavic countries to unite under the flag of Saint Catherine and carry out a holy war without hesitation towards the Tatar Devil!
Saint Catherine also continues to publicize to people, saying that jihad is God's will, and those who follow it will be blessed. Even if it is sacrificed, it is a good thing, because those who died in jihad can go to heaven!
It is unknown whether the saint was inspired by God, or her own psychological hallucinations, or Shataniev and Daniel tamper. In a word, in East Slavic countries, from the princes and nobles to the common people, a huge religious enthusiasm was stirred up, and a vast army was gathered to declare war on the Tatar devil and marched east!
What the saint says is a word on behalf of God, and it is regarded as a good word. Therefore, the saint's contribution to the rapid stability of order in the new city is really indispensable. Yesterday, when the coalition entered the city, regardless of her personal safety, she rode a horse and raised a flag. Surrounded by guards, she preached God's mercy all the way, prohibited random killing and arson, and encouraged countries to delimit the occupied areas and be at peace with each other. If you occupy the territory that has been demarcated by the friendly country and cause disputes, it will be rebellious and be unfaithful to God.
With this instruction, the encircle of various countries has become happier. After a busy day, they are basically encircled. Today, in addition to keeping people guard, the monarchs of various countries can march to Shalai at ease. Anyway, God has guaranteed the encircle land, and it is difficult for others to grab it.
The saint came to the scene of killing the prisoners of war in person today. Civilians in the city flocked to watch. They worshiped far away and praised the saint for her bravery, kindness and holiness. Many people suddenly gathered on the school grounds in the northeast. The saint also ordered to bring out craftsmen and hard laborers from the nearby labor camp and let them watch together. On the one's one, it can serve as a warning, and on the other, it can also promote God's will to them, so that they can understand God's unresistible, and from then on, they can safely be slaves of the Grand Duchy of Kiev and work honestly.
It's so lively, why don't you disturb far and near? Zhao was also attracted and came to have a look.
At this perspective, he took up: 22 riders recognized the Lord and revolted vigorously.
