The Three Kingdoms began with self-reliance as king

Chapter 113 Brothers Go Together

The rich middle-aged thought for a while.

In an instant, he realized that the companion said that he should be referring to Liu Yi's department.

Liu Yi once led the army and civilians to flee to Montenegro.

The approximate location should also be around this area.

However, he didn't care about what his companions pointed out.

He said confidently:

"Brother, don't worry!
I think they suppressed the bandits and calmed the people in Wancheng back then, buying the hearts of the common people all over the world.

Now Anken has ruined his reputation and came out to rob us? "

The thin middle-aged man thought about it carefully, and suddenly felt that what his companion said made a lot of sense.

Although Liu Yi is a bandit, he acts aboveboard and has nothing to do with Minqiu.

He even took tens of thousands of people from Wancheng to take refuge in Montenegro at great risk.

Never heard of them doing looting.

At the border of Nanyang, bandits were vigorously suppressed to protect the environment and the people, and it provided a lot of convenience for caravans to transport goods.

Thinking about Liu Yi's focus on building his reputation, even if he knew where they were passing by, he would never come to rob them.

"That's it, brother, don't worry!"

The stone in the heart of the thin middle-aged man finally fell in half.

The only thing that worries him now is the uncertain factor of Chu Yan.

If Chu Yan doesn't show up.

Then they will be able to deliver the goods to their destination without any risk this time.

"But this place is not peaceful after all, we'd better leave as soon as possible!

I estimate that at our speed, we will be able to leave here in another day. "

Although the rich and middle-aged are calmer than the thin and middle-aged.

But in the Taihang Mountain area where bandits are everywhere.

He was still somewhat apprehensive.

The two people at the head of this caravan are none other than others.

It was the well-known wealthy merchants in the north, Zhongshan great merchants Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping.

The two are from the same hometown and have been in business together for many years.

Under their management, the caravan continued to grow bigger and stronger.

The types and scope of goods operated are also becoming wider and wider.

It can be said that most of the goods needed by the customer group have been sold in the past.

Their footprints have been found in most parts of the north.

But since the Yellow Turban Uprising and the turmoil in the world.

The focus of the two brothers' business has changed.

Mainly engaged in the operation of iron and horses.

Because the profits of the two are relatively considerable.

They both have stable channels, so few caravans can compete with them.

Years ago.

They sold horses to Zhuo County, and saw that Liu Bei was the queen of King Jing of Zhongshan, with a good appearance.

Su and Zhang, who have been in business for many years, have met many people of all kinds. Although Liu Bei is white, he is a hero in troubled times.

They are unanimously optimistic about Liu Bei.

It happened that the Yellow Turban Uprising blocked their business, and they wanted to get acquainted with Liu Bei's brothers.

So he presented Liu Bei with dozens of good horses, 500 taels of gold and silver, and a thousand catties of iron and iron.

Wait until the Yellow Turban Uprising is suppressed.

Everywhere is stable.

The two went back and forth to the north again to sell horses, and at the same time manage iron and steel.

Previously, the road from Bingzhou to Jizhou was relatively safe.

Unfortunately, the Yellow Turban was suppressed, but Emperor Hanling increased taxes.

The people of Jizhou, who suffered from the war, could not bear the tax and hid in the Taihang Mountains to become bandits.

The risk of doing business has increased a lot.

The two found Liu Bei and asked to borrow soldiers to escort him.

Without saying a word, Liu Bei directly agreed to the request of the two.

Let Zhang Feizheng summon the brothers who have returned to the hometown, and borrow a hundred elite soldiers to accompany them.

See Liu Bei so refreshing.

Su Shuang was very moved.

Immediately promised to donate part of the many horses and irons to Liu Bei as a token of gratitude.

There is also the intention of further friendship.

Although Liu Bei only got one Anxi county lieutenant, the two still believed that Liu Bei was just out of luck.

It's not a matter of his ability, they still think Liu Bei is Jinlin.

The golden scale is not a thing in the pool, it will turn into a dragon when it meets the wind and cloud.

Borrow soldiers from Liu Bei to guard the caravan.

Only then did Su Shuang dare to transport iron and horses through the Taihang Mountain area.

The quality of their batch is very good.

Not to mention the high quality of iron.

The horses sold are even more high-quality horses.

There are Wuhuan horses, Xianbei horses and other BMW horses.

These horses are resistant to fatigue and cold, and can survive in harsh environments.

Each horse is extremely strong, full of energy, and quick to respond.

They're not just for walking.

The most important thing is that it is very brave on the battlefield, and it is one of the popular war horse breeds.

However, the supply of these horses is not easy to get.

Ordinary tribes will not easily sell these good horses.

Instead, many bad horses are mixed with good horses and sold together to make up for the number.

If a horse trader accidentally loses his sight, he will suffer a corresponding loss.

Therefore, many merchants in the Central Plains will choose to buy Fuyu horses at a lower price.

This minimizes their losses and maximizes profits.

Su Shuang and Su Shuang have been selling horses all year round, and they have relatively rich experience in selecting good horses.

But their main target is Fuyuma.

They are short in stature, but their physical fitness is not inferior to that of thoroughbred horses such as Wuhuan horses.

Moreover, it has strong endurance, low requirements for feed, and top adaptability.

It can be used as a war horse, as well as pull a cart and plow the land.

Even if you don't want it anymore, you can resell it for a good price.

The largest sales in the Central Plains.

Selling these horses over the years has made Su Shuang and his wife a lot of money.

Having tasted the sweetness, they chose to take the risk without hesitation at the risk of being robbed by bandits.

……

Su and Shuang led the caravan through a valley.

Long ago, there was a large group of people, holding shining sharp knives, watching closely the every move of the caravan.

half an hour ago.

Since Su Shuang's caravan entered the Taihang Mountains, these people had already received relevant information.

Under the arrangement of the leader, they quickly went to ambush here, waiting for the arrival of this group of caravans.

The caravan is getting closer and closer to the place where these people are ambush.

But they were not in a hurry to do it.

Instead, it is quietly waiting for the prey to enter the net.

At that time, when they attack in groups, they will be able to wipe out all the supplies in the caravan.

If you attack rashly.

The opponent had hundreds of horses, so it was inevitable that they would get away with it.

This is not the result they want.

They want not only goods but also horses.

This is why their leader carefully chose to ambush in this valley.

The valleys and gullies here are vertical and horizontal, very narrow and long.

The head and tail are narrow and the middle is wide. As long as you guard the two ends, you can catch the turtle in the urn.

No matter how well the caravan horses can run, they will not be able to escape this valley.

The place of the ambush.

Somewhere in the jungle.

A soldier walked quickly to the young man in battle armor, and said respectfully and joyfully:

"Boss! They're online!"

"good very good!"

The young leader has piercing eyes, a dignified body, and a dignified appearance.

He looks a little green on the outside, but he has a charisma, which is already very extraordinary.

His face was full of excitement, and he shouted loudly to everyone around him:

"Come on, brothers, get me this batch of goods and horses!"

"Here!"

Following the young leader's order, the soldiers ambushing in the dense forest on both sides rushed out like a tide.

"Kill!"

"Come on!"

"kill……"

All over the mountains and plains are their deafening shouts of killing.

The sound lasted for a long time, constantly echoing in the valley.

In the caravan.

The war horse screamed continuously.
