Chapter 425
Wang Zaixu and Li Yan turned back to Qingtang, while Zhang Yi, Sahazhuo and others drove their horses towards Datang.

The movement of hundreds of people and two thousand horses running was not small. It was impossible not to be discovered by the Tubo army, so before they set off, Sahazhuo had already sent people to the front to manage.

Although Zhang Yi and the others encountered some interrogation by Tubo soldiers along the way, when those Tubo soldiers knew that Zhang Yi and the others were merchants who came to Qingtang for trade, they did not hide the greed in their eyes. If Zhuo was there to intimidate them, they probably would have made a move long ago.

After passing a few checkpoints, Zhang Yi and the others were already very close to the border of Datang.

"Lord Sahazhuo, the situation is still a bit bad. Your Tubo army regards us as fat!"

Zhang Yi smiled and said to Sahazhuo, although they passed several checkpoints, the Tibetans did not make things difficult for them because of Sahazhuo's presence, but they secretly sent a team of cavalry to follow them.

It was impossible for Sahazhuo to escort them all the time. When Sahazhuo turned back, they could do it.

Sahazhuo frowned. In this situation, he didn't know what to do. Although he was a big nobleman, he could only frighten the local soldiers in Qingtang. Now there are many other big people in Qingtang. The lord's army is here, and his identity doesn't have much deterrent effect on them.

Moreover, it is impossible for him to escort Zhang Yi and the others to the territory of Datang, otherwise, he will probably be charged with collaborating with the enemy.

In fact, there is a great risk in making this deal between him and Zhang Yi. If someone is jealous and stumbling behind his back, then he may really be convicted of this crime.

Unless he is willing to contribute part of the benefits he has obtained to those who can speak up and share the benefits, then he will not be charged with collaborating with the enemy.

Zhang Yi and Sahazhuo were thinking about their own affairs, and the team soon arrived at the junction of Qingtang and Datang.

At the junction ahead, there is a big checkpoint, and there is a large number of Tubo troops at the checkpoint. Only after passing that checkpoint, Zhang Yi and the others will return to the territory of Datang.

"Dear guest, the army in front is not our local army in Qingtang, my status may not be easy to use, if something happens at that time, you run away immediately and don't worry about me.

If they let you go, as soon as you leave their sight, you have to go back as fast as possible, preferably in the direction of Datang's army! "

Sahazhuo said in a deep voice, obviously he was not sure what they would do with the army stationed on the border.

Zhang Yi nodded to show that he knew what to do. The Tubo army stationed at the border had no more than a thousand soldiers. If they really wanted to do something, it would not be difficult for him to rush out with a cavalry team of about two hundred. For these good horses, maybe those guys have to be cheaper.

"I hope they won't be so barbaric!" Zhang Yi said, and took the lead in reining in his horse and walking towards the checkpoint.

Yue Shiyi and the others followed closely behind Zhang Yi, and Sahazhuo followed with a sigh.

Sometimes things are so messed up. The two countries are developing harmoniously, but there are so many troubles. For many Tibetans in Qingtang who make a living by trading with the Tang people, this cuts off their source of income.

As expected, the Tubo army saw so many people driving good horses towards the border, and immediately dispatched a large number of soldiers to surround Zhang Yi and others.

"What are you doing? Why are you driving so many horses to the border? Do you know that the border between the two countries is ahead."

A Tubo knight who looked like an army saw Zhang Yi and others wearing Tang suits, and originally planned to take them down directly, but changed his mind when he saw Sahazhuo and others behind him.

Although he doesn't know Sahazhuo, but there are so many nobles in Qingtang, he will not act rashly before confirming the identity of the other party.

"Sir, I am Sahazhuo in Qingtang City. These merchants are all businessmen from Datang to Qingtang, and they are also my partners. Now that the border is in turmoil, they want to return To Tang."

Sahazhuo rode forward to negotiate with the officer, and when he reached the officer, a small bag was stretched out at a very fast speed.

Sahazhuo was a great nobleman, and the officer had heard of Sahazhuo's name. He didn't want to offend a big nobleman in Qingtang, but the army's regulations were here again, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

And just as the officer was hesitating, in the barracks behind, a black-armored officer led a small group of cavalry towards this side.

The iron armor of the black-armored officer is so fine that people can see his extraordinary status at a glance.

The black-armored officer came over, and Sahazhuo repeated what he said just now, hoping to help Zhang Yi and the others pass this level.

Who knew that the black-armored officer didn't like Sahazhuo at all, he just shook his head and said, "Master Sahazhuo, right? Although you have a fair deal with this merchant from the Tang Dynasty, if I remember correctly, in Selling good horses that can be used as war horses to the enemy country during the war is a crime of collaborating with the enemy!"

No matter at what time, collaborating with the enemy is a capital offense!
Hearing the words of the black-armored officer, Sahazhuo's face was very ugly, and he had to clarify at this time.

"My lord, these people are just merchants from the Tang Dynasty. They have no connection with the imperial army of the Tang Dynasty. They transported the goods to Qingtang for sale, and then exchanged the horses from me for the convenience of transporting them back. They have no other intentions. , I can guarantee this!"

Decided to cooperate with Zhang Yi and others. Sahazhuo and them are already grasshoppers tied to the same rope. Wealth and wealth are in danger. Although doing so has the risk of being accused of treason and collaborating with the enemy, at the same time, it can also make Zhang Yi Yi and the others saw their attitude and let them know that they were firmly on their side.

However, the black-armored officer just refused to take the hard and the soft. No matter what Sahazhuo said, he was unmoved.

Until the end, because of Sahazhuo's status as a nobleman, the black-armored officer let go: "People, you can go, but these horses cannot leave the territory of Tubo!"

After the black-armored officer finished speaking, he turned around and ordered his soldiers to block the place.

Looking at the battle of the black-armored officers, Zhang Yi and Xu Jingzong looked at each other. They also knew that they were in trouble today, and Sahazhuo alone might not be able to handle it.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Yi rode out.

"My lord general, can I say a few words?"
