Chapter 575: Marching in Ulya Sutai

Liu Changshun's appearance interrupted the awkward scene before, but the news he brought shocked the Mongolians present. The "general" who made all Mongolians regarded as the spokesperson for the emperor on the grassland actually ran away? They had tens of thousands of soldiers!

At this time, both the old lama and Gong Guer turned their eyes to Wang Rong and the other five people, and they were both afraid and regretful. If they had known, they would not have done anything to threaten them. From now on, the owner will be changed on the grassland!

It has been a full hundred years since the "Dorun Alliance"! Since then, Khalkha has set up banners and officially included them in the territory of the Qing Dynasty. After the "Battle of Erdenizhao" sixty years ago, the Junggar Khanate begged for peace from the Qing court and retreated to the southern foot of the Altai Mountains. Since then, the Qing court has established the position of "Dingbian Left General" and governed the military and political power of the Khalkha Mongolia on behalf of the emperor.

Starting from the 29th year of Qianlong, after the Qing Dynasty pacified the Junggar Khanate, the Ulya Sutai City was rebuilt. The old lama was just a little lama at that time, studying medicine in the Manjushu Temple in the city. He almost watched the heroic city on the grassland built day by day.

Such a strong castle, the general doesn't want it?

Under the afterglow of the sunset, he walked to Liu Changshun and asked, "Where have the imperial soldiers retreated?"

"I heard that I went to Kobdo." Liu Changshun said to Gongguer with a hoarse voice: "Master Gongguer, all the shops in the business and sales city have been stolen, and there is not enough food to eat. My second uncle fell ill again, so the younger one came to you for help. I want to ask for some medicine from you and borrow some food to go back."

Gong Guer sighed indecisively and said, "Don't worry, you've been walking for a day, go eat something first, and I'll talk about it later if you have anything to do."

At this time, a Beihai Army standing behind Wang Rong came over and whispered: "Company Commander, do you think you should report to the detachment immediately?"

Wang Rong thought for a while and shook his head, "Don't worry, find an opportunity to ask the person clearly. It's not too late to leave tomorrow morning."

Just as everyone was disturbed by accident, no one noticed that a woman quietly walked out of a black yurt, and then drove a few calves toward the river...

The willow forest on the banks of the Uliyasutai River was quiet, and yellow leaves fell in the forest, spots in the moonlight, like a flower-skinned snake. Several lively calves walked through the path in the willow forest and walked towards the river bank, Siqin was driving them behind. She kept watching melancholy towards the yurt where Timur's family was located, but the surroundings were already dark and there was nothing to see. The hay stems eaten by the old cow tripped her feet by the roadside, shaving her worn-out clothes whispered.

Suddenly, a man's voice rang behind Siqin: "Siqin, stop, stop, I'm Timur!"

"Ah!" Siqin was so scared that she was shaking all over. She hurriedly looked back and saw a figure of a man emerging from behind the tree under the moonlight.

Tiemur had been waiting in the willow forest for a long time. He heard from the villagers that Siqin would drive the calf to the river to drink water every day when he was in the dark. The more he thought about it, he felt more and more heartbroken and slipped out while others were not paying attention. When he heard Siqin's footsteps getting closer, his heart beat harder. When he saw Siqin's figure vaguely, he still didn't dare to speak, until he heard the hoarse sound of the calf shouting, and when she saw that she was about to walk away, she ran out of the darkness.

"Sqin, don't be afraid, I am Timur, Timur!"

However, when Timur caught up with her and was about to hold the other person's hand, Siqin hid her hand behind her and shouted sternly and coldly: "Stay away from me, don't get close to me! I am now from the Gungul family!"

Her words were so decisive and straightforward. Tiemur seemed to be punched hard on the chest and took two steps back involuntarily. He vaguely saw Siqin's haggard and pale face, and her eyes cast a terrifying cold light on him!

"Sqin, do you want to live your life with someone like Gonguer? I'm for you..."

"Shut up! I don't listen to this!" After that, she turned around and left, and soon turned into a trot. Looking from behind, her shoulders were shaking violently, and she was obviously crying while running.

In this short moment, Tiemur felt his heart broken...

At this time, at Gongguer's house, a dinner party for entertaining Company Commander Wang and others was about to begin. The whole sheep that had just been cooked was placed in the middle of the table like a mountain, and the shiny meat knife was placed around it one by one. However, before the dinner began, the old lama had no other trick.

An old man who was good at congratulations led a strong horse and walked to Captain Wang and others under the illumination of torches around him, and began to chant: "Its wide body is like the deep clouds and sky on Hangai Mountain; its galloping gait is like the rolling waves of the Sumeru Sea; its loud neighing that shocked the earth is like the sound of a beautiful conch. Its body gathered the shape of eight treasures, and dedicated this magical horse to the wise Wang Rongda Riga!"

The first person has finished singing, but it doesn’t count. There are two, third, and fourth...

These people were found by the old lama. As the saying goes, "Dogs do not bite and shit, and officials do not give gifts." He felt that these North Navy would definitely be satisfied.

Although the South Detachment had been in Mongolia for several months, no one else had seen this scene except Bayan. Company Commander Wang listened with a smile, thinking that these people were singing very nicely. However, the next scene made Wang Rong and others quickly droop.

After the old men finished singing, they walked up with their horses, knelt on the ground, holding the horse's reins over their heads with both hands, which meant to present the horse to several Northern Hairs. Wang Rong and the other four hurriedly stepped forward to help the kneeling artists, then turned to Gong Guer and his son, and said with a cold face: "We have no such rules in the Northern Hairs, kneeling on the sky, kneeling on the ground, kneeling on the ground, and kneeling on the parents!"

Gong Guer and his son were a little surprised. They didn't understand where they were wrong, so they smiled and said with a pity: "The common people are ignorant and do not know the current affairs. Don't blame Dariga, don't blame him!"

At this time, Bayan, who was the translator, joked with an old herdsman: "Ebuge (Grandpa), I can't bear to kneel down at such an old age! I might as well kneel down for you, just pretend that it's not a compensation."

After saying that, he knelt down, which scared the herdsmen to their faces. The old man hurriedly pulled Bayan and kept muttering: "June! Jun Ye! You can't do it! Oh my God, this is awesome! God is going to punish him!"

Bayan stood up and smiled and said, "You are so old that you kneel down to me, why don't God care? Such an unfair God should be shot! Everyone in the world will be equal in the future!"

After hearing this, the shepherds present wanted to laugh, but for some reason, no one laughed. Gong Guer, who was beside him, turned white and smoothed out, and said, "Mr. Jun is really good at telling jokes."

"I'm not a master. I used to be the same as you all. I was also a poor man living in a private room full of holes. After eating for the first meal, I couldn't eat. When I didn't go out, I could only crouch in the quilt with my butt naked." After that, I made a face.

Seeing Bayan behave like this, the herdsmen around him suddenly burst into laughter.

"When the master doesn't kneel down, what are these bad rules!" Gong Guer murmured a few words in his heart, and then said to Wang Rong: "Darriga, don't blame me, please accept this gift with all the soldiers. I dare say that in the entire Lama flag, these are all the best horses to ride."

Wang Rong said: "Thank you, but we have a horse."

"Hey, this, this, Dariga is busy with business and always needs a horse to ride. Don't be polite. When you come here, we always have to talk about our hearts."

Wang Rong was increasingly disgusting the father and son. He thought for a while and had an idea in his heart, so he said, "Mr. Gongguel is hard to refuse his kindness, but we have discipline and cannot take the people's things casually. Then do this,"

He walked to the herdsmen who had just chanted and said, "I will give you these horses to feed for the time being. You can use them at will during the feeding period. Whoever you leads, will you belong to you. I will not refuse to listen to the orders of my official?"

Everyone present now understood what Wang Rong meant. What is feeding? These horses belong to those herders!

The faces of Gong Guer and his son changed suddenly. They didn't expect that the North Navy would be so disrespectful to them. However, if the gift was given, it would be someone else's business, and they couldn't say anything else.

Alas! I flattered and slapped the horse's hooves! What's this?

While gnawing on a lamb leg bone, Liu Changshun stared at the scenes outside through the gaps in the private room door. He used to listen to "The Complete Biography of Yue" in his hometown in Shanxi. When the storyteller talked about the Yue family army's "no demolishing the house when frozen to death, and no robbery when starved to death", he just listened to it as a fun story. Who knew that there were such soldiers in the world!

At this time, I heard the "Prince Wang" pull Mr. Gongguer aside and whisper a few words. Then I heard Gongguer say "ah" in surprise, and then look at him. Liu Changshun hurriedly shrank back, thinking that he had been peeping and being seen?

After a while, as the footsteps approached, the door of the bag was opened. Wang Rong looked at Liu Changshun, whose edges were covered with oil, and smiled and said, "Are you a friend of the shops in Ulyasutai City?"

"The villain is! Pay tribute to the master!" Liu Changshun was so scared that he threw the bone in his hand to the ground, leaned over and kowtow.

"Get up!" Wang Rong stepped forward and helped him up, and then said, "Come with me, I want to ask you some things."

He saw Liu Changshun trembling all over when he was frightened, so he comforted him: "Don't be afraid, I'm asking you about the situation in Ulyasutai City. Don't you want food? Make it clear. When the troops enter the city in two days, they will give everyone food. I won't be hungry."

"Ah?!" Liu Changshun was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly bowed and kept muttering "Thank you, Master."

When Wang Rong and others walked away with Liu Changshun, the faces of Gong Guer and his son turned blue and white under the torches. The whole sheep on the table in the private room had already become cold, and white grease covered the surface...

When Siqin came back with the calf, the lively scenes at Gongguer's house were no longer there. The servants were tiptoed and did not dare to breathe, for fear that the master would scold him if he did something wrong.

At this time, Gongguer's eldest wife came out of the yurt and saw Siqin, she began to swear again: "Female fox, why are you standing there like a fool? Didn't you make two legs for you? You bitch, Timur's shame-covering tail will be raised as soon as you come back! Just let the male dog poke your heart! A worthless slut!"

"Go! Bring the pot of water in!"

Siqin always said nothing about this woman's insults and let her go. She walked to the private room where the wooden barrel was placed and filled with water with an iron pot. Unexpectedly, when she walked to the door of the bag, she tripped something under her feet. With a bang, the iron pot fell to the ground and the water was spilled.

When Gong Guer's eldest wife saw it, she picked up a wooden stick and beat it with shamelessness. The so-called concubine was just the saying outside, and Siqin was the lowest slave in this family. After Gong Guer got him, he lost interest within a few days.

Siqin covered her head and leaned on the ground, allowing the other party to vent his evil fire, and soon fainted.

"Stop!" Gong Guer waited for a while before he got up and snatched the wooden stick from the woman's hand. The eldest wife bent her eyebrows and said with a gun and a stick in her arms: "Ha~~ This is really a big change in the world. Do you feel sorry for the female fox?"

"Shut up!" Gong Guer suddenly slapped the woman in the face and shouted: "Let's talk about this and that, cut off your tongue!"

"You have no conscience!" The eldest wife returned to her bag crying.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! When Siqin woke up, it was already late at night. Although an oil lamp was lit in her bag, it was still dark. She soon found that she was sleeping on a man's thick wrist.

"Are you awake?" Gongoll's voice was unusually gentle.

Siqin did not answer, but stood up with difficulty. Only then did she realize that she was in the bag where Gong Guer lived. She groped and poured a bowl of warm tea and then lie down again. She had already guessed why the other party was so gentle today. But it was because of knowing that Siqin's heart fell into the abyss of pain!

She hid her head in her leather jacket, and in the darkness, tears flowed down her five fingers covering her eyes, moistening the felt.

"Tell you something, Timur is back. Do you want to see him?" Gong Guer's voice was filled with gloating tone. He wanted to see Siqin's reaction.

He didn't get a good job from the North Navy, so he decided to find a balance between the woman. He originally thought that Siqin would react immediately after hearing the news; but beyond his expectations, she didn't even move after hearing it.

Seeing the woman under him unresponsive, Gong Guer suddenly felt anger surge in his heart. From dusk to sunset today, he lost face. I guess by tomorrow, the nearby herders would know that the North Navy severely slashed Mr. Gong Guer's face, which was too embarrassing!

Thinking of what Bayan said to the old herder's book, Gong Guer's anger became even higher. Equal? ​​Equal with those poor people?! Equal with this woman?!

"Damn it! You want to ride on my head, you dream!" Gong Guer cursed, and suddenly pulled out a horse whip woven in cowhide from his waist, and whipped it at the woman on the ground.

Siqin didn't know what she had done wrong again. She was like a sheep before being slaughtered, but rolled around on the ground without saying a word. However, the more she did, the more angry Gongguer was; he was tired with a whip, and then kicked him again.

Suddenly, a kick happened to hit Siqin's belly, causing a severe pain like a rupture of her intestines. She could no longer help but screamed, and felt that it was dark in front of her eyes and she suddenly lost consciousness.

Seeing that the woman under him was not moving, Gong Guer stepped on her head with black horse boots, picked up the oil lamp and leaned over to take a photo. Then he shouted to the outside: "Please her back to her yurt!"

Soon, a maid walked in, bent down and was about to hug Siqin, but suddenly retracted her hand and said in panic: "Master, her lower body is covered with blood!"

"What are you afraid of if you have some blood in the wound? Take it away!"

"It's not bleeding from the wound. Look, there's too much bleeding, and it's ticking down!"

At this time, the old lama was also awakened by the movement here, and then put on his clothes and asked what was wrong. Gong Guer didn't say anything at all and poured himself a bowl of warm tea.

"Master, she's a miscarriage!" The maid screamed.

"Blessed by Buddha!" ​​When the old lama heard that Siqin had miscarriage, he quickly put his hands on his chest and left with a whisper.

Gong Guer slapped the table and said angrily to the maid: "Come away! Take it away! What does it have to do with miscarriage or not?"

The howling north wind outside the bag was whimpering like a night wolf, and the grassland night was cold in autumn and winter. After the maid carried Siqin away, blood dripped on the ground like a thin rope, flowing from the door of the bag to the dirty yurt where she lived...

At dawn, Tiemur, who had not slept for almost a night, was called out of the tent by the company commander. Wang Rong ordered him and three other soldiers to take the Han man named Liu Changshun to return to Chubuliya Station immediately and hand-written letter to the detachment commander.

It takes more than 100 miles to reach it in two days. When Huji and Mislang learned that the Qing army had retreated, they were immediately happy and immediately sent a telegram to the command center for instructions.
