march to victory

Because of the geographical advantage, the tribe of Lausanne established a lookout post on the top of the mountain backed by it.There is a plain around here, so the lookout post on the top of the mountain can see extremely far with the help of telescopes.

Today is a sunny day with excellent visibility.

At the lookout post on the mountain, they spotted the large group of people and horses appearing far away. However, they saw through the binoculars the clothes of the group of people and horses, especially the long carriage team, but they didn't panic at all. Hastily blew a bullhorn - the tribe's regulations on the sound of a bullhorn: one sound means that a group of people are coming.The medical bag was very thick, and Xiang Fuli and Yang Jin Lanze were in that atmosphere at the time, they only vaguely heard it, so naturally they didn't take it seriously.

Immediately, I saw a fast horse rushing towards the big Tibetan bag in the tribe, and immediately reported that the "three-eyed cat" had arrived with a large group of people.

In normal times, Lausanne doesn't care much about it: not to mention that the forces behind the Three-Eyed Cat bring people here at least twice a year, and among this force, the Three-Eyed Cat comes the most, and it is Lausanne and the Three-Eyed Cat A private relationship, or an affair, is enough to make him less wary of the three-eyed cat.

It's just that it's different now: the Red Army has just passed through this grassland, and there are Kuomintang cavalrymen and horse bandits chasing and killing lone Red Army soldiers everywhere.To put it bluntly, the atmosphere in the entire plain was extremely tense at this time, but there were four Red Army soldiers hiding in his tribe. Once this was discovered, the consequences would be extremely serious.Although he thought in his heart that the three-eyed cat would not fall out with him just because of a few Red Army soldiers, it was a troublesome matter after all, and he was afraid of it if it was not ten thousand, so why should he be slaughtered by the other party in vain?Therefore, he immediately sent his confidants to hide Xiang Fuli, and then sent Dawang to dress up Zhang Qingshan and the three of them as clansmen—the three people's faces were blackened, and they squeezed together with the clansmen, absolutely clever hiding Means, that is, what everyone calls black under the lamp.

Of course, a special reminder: he did not send anyone to order the clansmen not to name Zhang Qingshan and the others.Because it was unnecessary at all—the clansmen all hated the devil who came to suck blood every year, but the opponent was powerful, and everyone dared not speak out.Coupled with his majesty and the people's love for him, who would, or who would dare to tip off and become a traitor?

But to talk about the relationship between the three-eyed cat and the forces behind it and the Lausanne tribe, that time is a bit far away.

If Sun Zhiping saw the three-eyed cat in the population of the Lausanne people, he would be surprised to find that this guy was the commander of the cavalry battalion that he saw on that unnamed hillside leading hundreds of cavalrymen chasing the Red Army everywhere. ?Then, it is easy to infer that the power behind the three-eyed cat must be inseparable from that cavalry regiment. Maybe there are bigger figures behind it, but it is this cavalry regiment that came forward and directly contacted Lausanne... I think I think so, on the Great Plains where such people are extremely rare, cavalry is the most normal existence, and only the cavalry of the government can come into direct contact with Lausanne, who represents the Tibetan forces, so that people will not be found abnormal.

Conversely, the combination of the two can definitely control a large area and monopolize many channels.It would be a strange thing if the two of them didn't have some dirty cooperation under cooperation.

The Lausanne tribe has lived here for generations, and it is the largest force in the area itself, and it is also an aristocratic territory recognized by the government and Tibetans.Although the past ten years have gradually faded away, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse.With the support of Tibetan aristocrats, it is naturally the No. 1 choice for the group represented by Three-Eyed Cat in the selection of cooperation partners.

At that time, Luosang's father was still in power, but his father was an old-fashioned person who just defended himself and was unwilling to contact people other than Tibetans. Therefore, the evil consequences of his stubborn defense were obviously obvious... It can even be said Well, the horse bandits in this area are so rampant and developing so fast, it is inevitable that there is no force like the Three-Eyed Cat behind this, and the reason is naturally to deal with Father Lausanne.

However, Lausanne is different. He has accepted modern civilization and seen the world, so he naturally knows how to make use of various local advantages to make the poor tribe rich.For this reason, he used all means, even at all costs—from his daring to openly contact the Red Army in order to obtain weapons, and he was able to survive the incident without being held accountable by the government—at least on the surface.From this, it can be seen that Lausanne's courage can be called audacity, and his ability is obviously great.

Since Lausanne became the patriarch five years ago, the two sides have been in contact, and it can be said that they hit it off.And those horse bandits were naturally contained, just to control Lausanne. Therefore, the biggest horse bandit has been staying next to the Lausanne tribe, but has never continued to grow. Of course, the proximity of the territory and the three-eyed cat The forces have to remind Lausanne from time to time, or to control the growth of the Lausanne tribe too fast - it can be seen from the fact that they strictly control the import of weapons from the Lausanne tribe.Naturally, this group of bandits and the Lausanne tribe can't be safe and sound, but the speed of expansion must be controlled, so the Lausanne tribe set the bottom line at the Sacrifice Mountain as if they were dying.

Lausanne knew that if the tribe wanted to get rid of this situation of being controlled secretly by people, what they lack most now were weapons and ammunition. For this reason, he would risk sending caravans to do business in Han places, so some caravans would be robbed , and even the absurd thing that was blatantly not issued.To put it bluntly, everyone is playing games for their own interests.

Just when Lausanne was about to hang himself for the weapon, the Red Army arrived, and Lausanne received the Red Army desperately...

The cooperation between Lausanne and the forces behind the three-eyed cat is naturally for profit.

This plain is desolate and uninhabited. Although the land is fertile, the weather is weird. The storm and hail make it difficult to grow anything. This is the place where the Lausanne tribe is located. It is a good place to grow highland barley and even wheat, and because the surrounding water plants are abundant, animal husbandry is very developed.

Everyone knows that smuggling is safe only if you avoid places with a lot of people. Regardless of the remoteness of the Lausanne tribe, this is the place where his tribe is located. Naturally, it is the road to heaven for smuggling.And the tribe in Lausanne is too important, an absolute transit point: except for the northwest, it extends in all directions and the distance is suitable.There is a group of our own people here, who can not only fight against smuggling by hostile forces, but also ensure the smooth flow of their own smuggling channels... This means that those smuggling groups need a group of people to station here, but it is located in a remote place, how can ordinary people bear it It’s bitter, and there is no place for stationing the army. Moreover, if you drive out the Luosang tribe forcibly, you will be hated and retaliated by the Tibetans. This makes it impossible for them to send people to station here for a long time. Therefore, after Luosang took the initiative to show goodwill to them, It is doomed that the Lausanne tribe is not allowed to be wiped out by others.

Lausanne is not only an aristocrat, but also a representative of Tibetans in the local area. It can be said that it is also an official force. No matter how you look at it, it is much stronger than changing a group of people. Therefore, when the two official forces come into contact, they want to cooperate to gain This huge benefit is hard.

At the same time, the Lausanne tribe has to provide cattle and sheep for the army, and it has to train Tibetan mastiffs for those high-ranking officials. In addition, it has to cooperate with other forces... All kinds of interests are entangled, and various forces are fighting each other to check and balance each other. No one dared to openly eat Lausanne's tribe easily.Otherwise, you really think that everyone else is blind, and after you can openly let you contact the Red Army, you will be let go after charging you some favors?Lao Jiang's famous sentence "It is better to kill three thousand by mistake than to let one go", but it was paved with bloody human heads.Of course, this can also show how much energy and courage the forces cooperating with the Lausanne tribe have.

"Old Peng, you brought so many brothers here because you sincerely want to overwhelm me! Let me tell you, when I am overwhelmed by you, I will bring my clansmen under your command to be a company commander. , don’t say you don’t know your third brother.”

As soon as the other party approached, Luosang brought Dawang and a few guards forward, imitating the greeting ceremony of the Han people, and greeted each other with fists together... From this address, it can be heard that the two are very familiar.

The battalion commander Peng and Luosang, known as the three-eyed cat, were not polite, and threw the whip to their guards. After dismounting, they also held their fists and laughed as they walked over: "Ha! Ha! Third brother, you You still like to tease brother so much, brother, I am here to give you a gift."

As they spoke, the two embraced warmly—it seemed like a personal friendship, but in fact, this was a signal to start trading, and everyone knew it well.

Without the instructions of the two leaders, the subordinates already knew the way: Dawang immediately took a large number of people to inspect the goods.The same is true for the other party. When the two sides meet, they still talk affectionately, pat each other on the shoulder, or pass the wine on their bodies to the other party for a few sips... Of course, in the middle is to check the goods, and on both sides are the two sides. People and horses are on guard—what if the other party gets cheated?

This is also the reason why the forces behind the three-eyed cat come to the Lausanne tribe at least twice a year: in order to deliver the goods to be smuggled and some things that were named last time, such as salt and medicine, to the Lausanne tribe. A transfer station, and after those smuggling caravans come here, Lausanne will be in charge of the transaction, and then the smugglers will smuggle the goods to various places.

When they go back, they will settle the goods that Lausanne wants to smuggle through their channel and the money from the last transaction, and there are still some things to confess, such as Tibetan mastiffs or other things requested by some big shots.Of course, it is autumn now, and it is time to harvest cattle and sheep, so naturally they have to take them back.

In order to prevent the other party from cheating or cheating, they had to count in person. The two of them just stood aside and chatted all the time. For this reason, neither of them said to sit down, drink tea and have a feast, which shows how much enthusiasm they have. False, mixed with too many interest factors.

After standing for a full two hours, waiting for their confidants to report, and confirming that the number was clear, the two of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and immediately resumed their previous exaggerated laughter.

"Old Peng, let's go! Let's go! Let's go in and chat while eating... The last time I saw you was more than two months ago. You don't know how much third brother misses you after you left... This time, you want Don't say anything to save your third brother, you have to live with him for a few days first, and get drunk with your third brother for three days and three nights..."

Luosang laughed and pulled him into the village while talking, and he didn't forget to turn around and yell at Dawang to let the brothers eat and drink well.The three-eyed cat nodded with a smile, and was about to say something, but suddenly remembered something, stopped walking, and said to Luosang with a smile: "Look at my memory, I almost forgot. By the way, third brother, I have something to do." I have to trouble you..."

Luosang was startled: Here we come!
