Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1366, it's so tough

On the vast grassland in the north of the Crimean Khanate, more than a dozen horses galloped rapidly on the grassland like a whirlwind. The leading knight was carrying a big Ming dragon flag, waving it in the wind and hunting loudly.

Behind the tail is also a knight carrying the flag of the Black Sea Escort. The black flag is embroidered with a map of the Black Sea. The four huge golden Chinese characters are very eye-catching.

In the middle of the team were the escorts Alexei and Andrei this time. At this moment, both of them looked very anxious.

Judging from what we know now, the situation in the Principality of Moscow is not very optimistic. The Tatars in the Crimean Khanate are now addicted to playing grass valleys. They used to play grass valleys in autumn, but now they don’t care about the season. They will all go to Dacaogu, and Dacaogu Yanran has become the main means of making a fortune for many Tatar tribes.

There is no way, the current slave market continues to be hot, the price is soaring, and it is easy to sell, and the business of playing grass valley is a cost-free business. The money comes quickly and it will be addictive.

The Principality of Moscow was often plundered by the Tatars, and the originally prosperous Ryazan Principality was plundered by the Tatars and turned into a dead place.

Even in the Principality of Moscow, there are often daring Tatar tribes who go to the grasslands around Moscow, which makes Andre and Alexei very anxious.

Especially Andrei, he was born as a serf, and his family conditions were very poor, so he had no way to live in the city of Moscow. Once he encountered Tatars hitting the grass valley, his family might be caught and sold as slave traders, just like Same as myself back then.

Alexei is better. He is a nobleman. He was captured and sold as a slave when he joined the army. The conditions in his family are good and he can move to Moscow to live. Even in the chaotic situation, he still has enough money. come live.

But the two still hope to return to the Principality of Moscow as soon as possible and find their relatives as soon as possible, because the Principality of Moscow is fighting the Tatars. Once the Principality of Moscow is allowed to break through the Principality of Moscow, even in the city, they will not Can't escape the fate of being captured.

More than a dozen horses galloped across the grassland, heading for the Principality of Moscow in the north.

From time to time, Zhang Wei would ask the team to stop, on the one hand to give the horses time to rest, and at the same time to take out the map to carefully identify the direction and check the surrounding situation.

"The current location is within the Principality of Ryazan, and there are still hundreds of miles away from Moscow. Calculated according to our current speed, we still have about ten days to arrive."

On a hill, Zhang Wei drew a point on the map, calculated the next distance, and said to Alexei and Andre beside him.

Zhang Wei, who joined the army, used to be a scout. Mapping, terrain surveying, calculating distances, and identifying directions were all basic compulsory courses.

"There are still about ten days to go back to Moscow!"

When Alexei and Andre heard this, they immediately became more excited, and the desire to go home in their hearts became stronger. At this moment, they wished they could fly back to their hometown immediately and see their relatives and friends.

"Team Zhang~ There is a situation!"

At this moment, someone beside him said vigilantly.

Immediately, the people who were sitting on the ground and resting immediately became vigilant and got on their horses one after another.

Zhang Wei took out his binoculars and looked over quickly, and soon saw a group of Tatar cavalry rushing towards him on the grassland directly in front, waving their swords one by one, as if looking very excited.

"Murad, can you tell which tribe this is?"

Zhang Wei handed the binoculars to a Tatar beside him and said that this man named Murad was a local guide hired by Zhang Wei, and he was a local Tatar from the Crimean Khanate.

Murad took the binoculars and looked carefully, and quickly said: "This is a member of the Bahechi tribe. They are a well-known tribe that relies on looting for a living. Grass hunting is their main means of survival. It is estimated that they are want to rob us."

"The Bakhchi tribe?"

As soon as Zhang Wei heard it, he immediately wrote it down, and then said: "You wait to have a good talk with them, tell them our identities, and ask him to let us go there, otherwise, we Daming people are not easy to mess with."

Then he gave an order to the bodyguards under him: "Get ready for battle, tell them what you have said, and talk to them with your fists if you can't."

"Yes!"

The dozen or so bodyguards under him immediately replied in unison, one by one quickly sorting out their bows, arrows, swords, muskets, etc., and getting ready for battle.

"My lord, do these Daming people want to die?"

"When encountering these Tatars, not only did they not run away, but they even prepared to fight. A dozen of them are not enough to kill the more than one hundred Tatars on the opposite side."

Beside Alexei and Andre, Sergey, who Andre bought in Kafa Seaport, was already scared to death.

The brutality of the Tatars was almost imprinted in his mind. When he saw the Tatars, his legs trembled, and he was already scared to death. These Ming people did not have the slightest fear. The key is that they still looked very arrogant. .

Murad rode a horse and rushed out at the head of the horse, and soon met the Bahechi tribe who rushed up. Return to Zhang Wei's side.

"The people of the Baheqi tribe said that if you want to go there, you can go there, but you have to take out five hundred Ming silver dollars."

"Five hundred taels of silver?"

When Zhang Wei heard it, he stared at him immediately and said: "I have worked so hard for a trip to the bodyguard, and the whole bodyguard bureau only collected [-] taels of silver, and they asked for [-] taels of silver when they opened their mouths."

"This is robbery, just dream."

"They did intend to rob, but I explained your identities to them. The people of the Baheqi tribe are not willing to provoke you Ming people, but since they have come, it is impossible for them to return empty-handed."

Murad said again.

"Come on, let's go over and have a good chat with them in person. If you dare to blackmail us Daming people, you really think we are made of persimmons."

Zhang Wei was furious immediately, and with an order, everyone rode their horses and came in front of the Baheqi tribe.

"My name is Zhang Wei, and I'm from the Black Sea Bodyguard Bureau. Let the leaders of you come out and speak."

Murad quickly translated Zhang Wei's words, and soon, a few people came out of the opponent's cavalry.

"For the sake of being Daming people, you can pass here by leaving five hundred Daming silver dollars."

Gerhaz rode his horse and looked at the Daming man in front of him. Although there were only a dozen or so riders, he was not easy to mess with. All of them were armed to the teeth, and their actions seemed to be very organized.

And among the dozen or so people, except for a few Slavs who looked terrified, all of them had calm eyes, showing no sign of fear.

"See my flag?"

"This is the dragon flag of the Ming Empire, we are people of the Ming Empire!"

Zhang Wei pointed to the Daming Dragon Banner beside him, and said very loudly.

Gerhaz frowned. The Ming man in front of him dared to talk to him so loudly in such a situation.

"Let me tell you, if you want silver, you have nothing."

"Either get out of here quickly, or kill us all."

"When I came here, I had already registered with our Daming office here at Kaffa Seaport. If something happened to us, our Daming Empire would never let you go. Your Khan will definitely be the first to send your tribe's Hand them all over."

"Also, as long as we Daming people have an accident overseas, our revenge fund will be activated, and we will offer a high reward to the whole world to arrest you."

Zhang Wei's attitude was extremely arrogant, and his voice was very loud. He was not afraid of the Tatars in front of him at all.

"you wanna die!"

After hearing the translation, Gerhaz became annoyed immediately, pulled out the knife in his hand, and wanted to order to kill all the Ming people in front of him.

But someone around him hurriedly stopped him and chattered a lot. Anyway, in the end, Gerhaz didn't know what to do with the knife.

The people under his command made it clear to him just now that the Ming people should not be messed with. Not only will the government of the Ming Dynasty exert strong pressure on the Crimean Khanate, but the Ming people themselves have a revenge fund, and a reward will be offered at that time. As soon as the order comes out, you don't know how many bounty hunters will come to ask for your head.

"If there's nothing else, we'll go first."

Looking at the other party's uncertain expression, Zhang Wei couldn't help but want to laugh out loud.

Over the years, whether in the military or overseas, he has understood a truth, don't be cowardly wherever you go, the tougher you are, the less people will dare to provoke you.

What's more, as a member of the Ming Empire, you don't have to be afraid of these things, you should have the confidence to face everything, because behind you there is the mighty Ming Empire supporting you.

"Go~"

Zhang Wei didn't bother to look at the other party anymore, so he continued to walk north with his men on horseback.

The people of the Bakhchi tribe didn't have Gerhaz's order, and they could only watch them leave, but there was nothing they could do.

"So the Tartars let us pass?"

While trembling and riding away quickly, Sergey asked Alexei and Andrei beside him in disbelief.

"if not?"

Alexei straightened his waist and asked confidently.

"But, but~"

"These Tatars are the most ferocious wolves on the grassland. They will not let go of any prey. Is the sun coming out in the west today?"

Sergey shook his head in disbelief.

The Tatars in my impression are the nightmare of the Slavs, they can cure children from crying at night, but these Ming people are so arrogant, these Tatars can only let them go.

"That's because the prairie wolf doesn't want to provoke the angry Daming Dragon!"

　People bully the good and fear the evil, so don't be cowardly, be tough, don't cause trouble, and don't be afraid of trouble!
