"Gigita, your information is good. This is a reward for you. If there is such a good thing next time, you must inform me!"

"Of course, Tuoba Warrior is the eagle in the sky, and no one can escape your eyes." Jigita picked up a dozen copper coins from the mud pit on the ground with both hands, as if he had received a great reward.

"Hehe, you are smart, we won't steal your sheep next time."

"Thank you warrior Khan."

Watching the barbarians leave arrogantly, Jigita slowly stood up straight. The smile on his face was gone, leaving only deep hatred.

Erhan didn't remember that three years ago, he broke into a border resident's house while drunk, killed the man, raped the woman, and finally burned down the tent.

At that time, the young Jijita happened to be delivering milk wine to his mother's house. When he came back, only a ruin was left. His parents were killed, and his mother and Ada were heartbroken. The flames that shot up into the sky planted the seeds of hatred in Jijita's young heart.

A month ago, Jigita drove sheep into the city to exchange money for Ada to buy medicine, but was chased by Erhan and lost his fur coat. Fortunately, he was close to the city guards, so Jigita escaped.

Jiang Wu came to them yesterday and told them that they wanted to deal with the barbarians, and Jijita agreed without hesitation.

After a short period of "training", Jijita finally passed the test in the eyes of everyone.

"There's no other way. This is the specialty of the Mi Yu Wei. This is all I can teach you!" Si Ji said helplessly.

He is not the kind of person who thinks a lot. High-end skills such as disguise and lurking require talent.

"I think this kid is good." Jiang Wu patted Jigita's shoulder.

"If it's good enough, and the boss likes it, maybe I can even join Black Stone. You see, our shop has so much work to do, and we often have to deal with border residents. Maybe I can even become a shopkeeper."

The more Siji listened, the more he felt something was wrong. This empty talk seemed familiar to him.

Jigita was immediately excited. Being a hanger-on was something many people could only ask for, but Jiang Wu's offer was too tempting. He had seen all the benefits of Blackstone.

If they could get their protection, these border residents would have confidence and could also covet those territories with abundant water and grass, instead of being like a stray dog ​​being driven away everywhere as they are now.

"Hey!" Seeing that the guy was talking nonsense, Si Ji immediately reminded him that Mr. Qu was still there.

Qu Qing looked at Si Ji and Jiang Wu flirting with each other and found it funny: "My lady is interested in gathering the border people, but it depends on your sincerity."

"Really?" Jijita opened her eyes wide in surprise. "What do you need us to do? Border people are as tough as weeds. If we can get the protection of the lady, we are willing to do anything."

Qu Qing nodded. This kid knew what was going on. "The border people need a leader." His eyes were deep. "Gather a team of 20 people and capture Erhan alive. That will be your test."

He pulled out a scimitar and handed it to Jigita, "This weapon can help you. After you capture Erhan, go to Moon Bay and claim your reward."

Jigita carefully took the scimitar from Qu Qing's hand. The blade was bright white, like the snow on the top of the mountain. The familiar black stone patterns on the handle guard stretched upward. This was the most exquisite killing weapon he had ever seen in his life. Its value could be exchanged for hundreds of sheep.

"Jijita, I will definitely keep my promise." His Ada was the most prestigious old man among the border residents, but because of the pain of losing his son, he later became bedridden.

In the past, they had no supplies or weapons, so they could only be driven like sheep. But this time, he held a sharp blade in his hand, and the young wolf was destined to be restless once it grew claws.

After Jijita left, Jiang Wu next to him smacked his lips and said, "Hey, why are our swords so ugly?"

Si Ji glanced at him and said, "Haven't you read the new military regulations? You can exchange your military merits for a sword, and you can even write your own name on it!"

"real or fake!"

"you guess!"

Moon Bay, Central Army Camp, Xie Xian held the map in her hand and looked at it carefully, "Are these the places where the herdsmen said the grass and water are the most lush?"

"Yes, these places have always been divided up by the Jin people and the barbarians, and the border residents can only go to those slightly more remote and barren lands."

"Where are the wolves on the grassland? Are there any migration routes in recent years?"

Xie Xian asked in a deep voice, they have all the right people, the right time, the right place, and the right people, but they can still use their brains to think about other things.

Liu Yu and Niu Er looked at each other and realized that they really had not learned enough. The queen said that she could not fight, so apart from making the plan, everything else was arranged by the two of them.

But in fact, when Xie Xian said that he did not know how to fight, he meant that he had not collected all the information on the surrounding geographical locations, tribal distributions, and seasonal changes.

At this moment they were completely convinced. With such a meticulous layout, they were more confident in provoking a war between the two sides.

"Is there any news from Jiu Zifu yet? When will they start fighting?" Xie Xian felt a little bored of staying on the grassland every day. She just wanted to finish the task quickly and then go home and lie down.

"There is news that the north is still preparing food and grass."

"They have been preparing for two or three months, how many people will be deployed?" Xie Xian complained, but she was convinced by the speed over there. In another two or three months, it would be time for the autumn harvest. Was this an ancient version of the Cold War across Yunzhou City?

"Yesterday, the Mi Yu Guards sent a message that something seemed to have happened to Princess Zhaoyang on her way to Yunzhou City. Even the Imperial Guards were alarmed?"

"What's going on? The game hasn't even come to a conclusion yet, and you're already eager to send your niece away. Tsk!" Perhaps it was because the expression on Xie Xian's face was too disdainful, Liu Yu and Niu Er looked at each other. They were used to it by now.

This is the personality of their own queen. She has no respect for the imperial privileges. However, she also cannot respect the things done by the court. So they went from being fearful in the beginning to echoing them now, indicating that they also look down on those cowards in the court.

"Why haven't the fishermen come back yet?" Xie Xian asked. Although they brought food and fodder this time, they still had to use it sparingly.

The auxiliary soldiers equipped with carts arrived at the destination and waited for the grain to be unloaded. Xie Xian then arranged for them to transport the dried meat, sheepskin, and lambs produced in Tongguan over the past few days back to Que County.

Such good labor force must naturally be used to its maximum potential. Anyway, with their speed and combat power, on the grassland, if they can't ride a horse, they are a loser. It is better for them to go back and move goods honestly.

When he came, Li You donated 300 horses, which was quite a generous thing in Daxia, which was short of horses and sheep.

After arriving at the place, they bought another hundred horses from the herdsmen. Now, the main task of the soldiers was to learn how to ride horses.

There are many herds of wild horses on the grassland, and Moon Bay is the place that the wild horses like to visit the most. Xie Xian came here with the idea of ​​being close to the water and getting the moon first.

Everyone worked together to set up a trap. After the wild horses were driven together, they put up a fence and tamed the leading horse. It then became much easier to track the rest.
