    The sky is full of yellow sand, and the desolate wind is mixed with yellow sand and blows on people's faces from time to time, which is painful.  A few miles away was a green grassland, but this group of people did not go there, but trudged forward in the desert.  The number of this pair of people is not large, about three to four hundred people, but it is not a lot.  However, the people here are all the same. There are Mongols, Jurchens, and many other ethnic groups. Of course, the majority are Han people.  But at this time, these people were all dressed similarly, all wearing leather jackets, leather trousers, and hats on their heads.  Although the weather was not cool, these people were covered very tightly, and everyone had weapons on their bodies.  Among this pair of people and horses, apart from the special people, the most special one is the horse.  Each horse carries a huge burden, but the people are walking on the ground.  "Li Tou, after this transaction is completed, should we take a break?" A middle-aged man came to the front, frowned and glanced at the leader, and said in a serious tone.  The person called Li Tou is a middle-aged man in his forties with a big scar on his face, one eye is blind, and there are sunspots around his eyes.  He was very tall, carrying a knife behind his back, and looked very intimidating.  Hearing the man's question, Li Tou sighed softly and said helplessly: "I, Li Datou, have been in this business for more than ten years and know the helplessness involved. Many people say that we make money, but this  How much money will be spent? How much will actually fall into our hands? I have already thought about it. I am not young anymore. After doing this, I don¡¯t want to take a break but prepare a gold basin to wash my hands!  , Big brother also advises you, don¡¯t do it, it¡¯s not easy to do this business with your head in your waistband!¡± The man was slightly stunned, and said helplessly: ¡°Brother, I don¡¯t know, little brother!  The elder brother has been doing it for a long time, but it has been four or five years. You can see how many people have died on this road. Maybe it will be our turn one day. Since the elder brother said this, we won¡¯t do it anyway.  After a few years of saving up, this is the last trip. "He nodded slowly, and said with a smile: "That's good, but don't tell the brothers about this for now, wait until we get back to Zhangjiakou.  We'll talk about it later." The man smiled sinisterly and said in a mysterious tone, "Don't worry, brother, I understand. Besides, I don't want to die either!" Li Tou sighed deeply as he patted the man on the shoulder.  , said rather helplessly: "Actually, we don't know how long we can do it. When we left, we heard that the court was rectifying Liaodong and had arrested many people. It should be almost done now. If the line in Liaodong is broken, we will  It's faster here. If the court wants to take care of it, it won't keep us." Nodding with approval, the man smiled flatteringly and said in a respectful tone: "Who has the experience of Li Tou on this horse road?  Rich, as long as Li Tou says it, it is the emperor's decree. " Li Tou seemed to like listening to this person's flattery. The smile on his face was bright, but the look in his eyes was very calm, and his eyes were constantly looking around.  , obviously a veteran.  After pondering for a moment, the man said hesitantly: "Li Tou, don't you need to check the new people? Don't you think they are suspicious?" "Suspicious? I know! Those who are looking for us are not  Is it suspicious? As long as there is enough remuneration, we will accept it regardless of status or relationship!" Li Tou waved his hand indifferently and said calmly.  "But brother, I still feel uneasy. I always feel that there is something wrong with these people, and I always feel that something is going to happen." The man still frowned, looking back from time to time, and said hesitantly.  Li Tou waved his hand gently and said in an indifferent tone: "The reward is enough. After we finish this job, we can stop doing it for the rest of our lives. Since we have received their reward, we have to get things done. I don't want to  What happened to the last accident, just stay safe." The man seemed a little unwilling and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Li Tou, who said impatiently: "Second brother, don't worry, I go to Zhangjiakou every year.  There are many people who want to make a living, and this is not the first time we have done this. All three of their horses are good things, one is worth about 800 taels, and the best one costs about 2,000 taels. Such a reward is risky.  All the risks are worth it. Besides, there are rules on the road, and all the money for picking up people belongs to the boss and the husband. With this money, we can wash our hands." It seemed that what Li Tou said was reasonable, so the man closed his door.  The mouth is no longer speaking.  Everyone is walking forward slowly. There are three people gathering together in the second half of the team. They are walking forward slowly, accommodating each other's speed to prevent anyone from falling out of the team.  Sighing softly, Mangus said helplessly: "I really didn't expect that we would end up in this situation."?, I don¡¯t know if we can go back to the grassland. I hope the eternal God will bless us!  " Chen Liangyu on the side looked very pale at this time. He leaned his whole body on the horse and was carried away by the horse. Hearing Mangus's words, Chen Liangyu felt sad in his heart. Is it worth it? Huang Taiji looked at it  Looking at the high sky, I thought about my father Khan Nurhachi on the grassland, and I didn't know how this plan was going. If it failed, then my efforts this time were really not worth it.  Huang Taiji had already made plans, but he didn't expect to reach this last step. Looking at the pale Chen Liangyu, Huang Taiji's eyes were complicated. If it hadn't been for this guy, he probably wouldn't have ended up in this situation.  Huang Taiji still recognizes Chen Liangyu¡¯s talent. We can¡¯t do anything to him now. Let¡¯s wait until everyone survives! ¡°Son, I wanted to ask along the way, what should we do after we arrive in Zhangjiakou?  "In this environment, Mangusi is Huang Taiji's father, and Chen Liangyu is his cousin. However, Chen Liangyu and Huang Taiji try their best to avoid calling each other, but Mangusi never tires of it. " He looked complacent with his head full of black lines.  Huang Taiji really wanted to kick the old man off his horse, but there was no expression on his face. After thinking for a moment, Huang Taiji said in a low voice: "I can't be sure yet, but I will tell you before I come here.  Already prepared.  If everything goes well, then we can go back.  " Chen Liangyu and Mangus looked at each other and saw doubts in their eyes, but neither of them was talking. At this moment, apart from believing in Huang Taiji, they had no other choice. "  He fell into silence for a while and walked forward slowly. No one was talking. Huang Taiji lowered his head and had a sad look on his face. He felt pain when he thought of those Eight Banners disciples.  The elite warrior was gone. Huang Taiji was in a very depressed mood. It was the first time in so many years that his heart felt so painful, and he suddenly understood the saying of the Han people, that is, the success of one general will lead to the death of thousands of bones.  On the fourth day of August, it is suitable for weddings and funerals, and it is forbidden to move. Baozili (also known as Xiabao) was part of Xuanfu Town in the capital at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. It was the right guard of Wanquan in the fourth year of Xuande. Zhang Wen was the commander.  The castle was built here, which is now Zhangjiakou. Because it was located at the frontier, Zhangjiakou was a castle when it was built. It was three feet tall and four miles and thirteen steps square. There was one gate in the southeast, and it was called "Yongzhen Gate" in the east.  The south is called "Cheng'en Gate". In the fourth year of Emperor Mu Zong's reign in the Ming Dynasty, Ada Khan, the leader of the Mongolian Tatar tribe, who was the Great Khan of Mongolia at that time, surrendered to the Ming Dynasty and accepted the title of the Ming Dynasty. Zhangjiakou was designated as Mongolian Han.  "A place for mutual trade." In the 41st year of Wanli, Laiyuan Fort was built on the side of Zhangjiakou Fort. Based on Zhangjiakou Fort and Laiyuan Fort, Zhangjiakou has become the most prosperous place in the north, where merchants gather.  The "Qionglu Thousand Tents" outside was very prosperous. In the era of constant turmoil in the north, trade here has never been interrupted. Whether it is officially allowed or not, everything is done here.  There are merchants who buy and sell slaves here. Zhangjiakou is very prosperous, with people from all ethnic groups coming and going. This makes the situation in Zhangjiakou very complicated, and there are all kinds of people.  , but this is also known as the place where you can get the most goods. There is nothing you can¡¯t think of, whether it¡¯s fine furs, horses, or silks.  There are more things, such as private salt, ironware, and even weapons and firearms that are prohibited by the imperial court. Early that morning, there was a sea of ??people outside Chengen Gate, and there were traders coming and going from all over the market.  Accents, arguing here, bargaining here, the whole market was extremely noisy for a while. Everyone was busy with their own things, and no one noticed the arrival of a group of people. There were not many people coming, so there were only a few people.  Three or five people. These people were all on horseback. They stopped at the market and quickly entered. But these three or five people had just arrived, and then many people came, some three or five, some ten.  Several. These people are all dressed in different styles. Some are riding horses, some are picking things, some are dressed as gentlemen, and some are dressed as beggars. However, one thing about these people is that they all do not stop.  They all walked into Zhangjiakou. They went to the same place, which was a relatively prosperous street in Zhangjiakou, where some were setting up stalls and some were begging for food.  He gently knocked on the counter, and a man said loudly: "The shopkeeper, come out to pick up the customers!" The shopkeeper was stunned, it was like calling a prostitute, and he couldn't help but get angry, raised his head and spokeThe shopkeeper was stunned.  (To be continued.
