Lord of Riders

Chapter 68: Open secret

   Batu continued to introduce him to Kujit's current situation while drinking wine with Shao Yu.

"Brother, don't you know. Once the prairie caravan was just a small ringing horse group with only three or four hundred people. They were often beaten by our army and fled around. However, since the death of Gerak Khan five years ago, Sega Ke When Khan succeeded to the throne, the power of the prairie caravan began to grow at an alarming rate, and in just five years, it developed into the largest caravan in the north of Kujit."

   Batu said he picked up the bowl of kumiss in front of him and drank it

   Shao Yu pour him wine again and let him continue

"Although their power was very large, they were still completely unable to fight against the regular army of the Khanate. However, since the Saiga Khan declared war on the Kingdom of Swadia this year, our army has been continuously transferred to the Dekhrim area. There was the focus of the war. In less than two months, almost all of our elite troops in the north of Kujit were transferred to the southern battlefield. The grassland caravan of two thousand people with our intelligence was still unable to set off anything in the north of Kujit. Waves, but for unknown reasons, the number of raiders has risen sharply recently. According to statistics we have received, the number of prairie caravans has reached more than 5,000."

   "More than five thousand people!?" Shao Yu was a little surprised when he heard it.

   The information I got should be only three or four thousand people, how come it reached five thousand people so quickly

   "I heard that Kujit's army fought a battle with the ringing horses in the northwest of Turga not long ago. Didn't they eliminate some of their soldiers and horses?" Shao Yu asked curiously

   "Ha, you said that, that is a conspiracy, a despicable conspiracy"

   Hearing Shao Yu mentioned that Batu's face suddenly changed, and he smashed the table severely, and all the kumiss in the bowl popped out.

   Batu's eyes billowed, panting heavily.

   "Big Brother Batu participated in that battle?" Shao Yu asked in a low voice tentatively when he saw this.

   "Look at it" Batu said as he tore open his clothes, and a nearly five-inch cut was lying on Batu's chest.

   "What is going on?" Shao Yu asked in surprise

   "It's all the villain!" Batu gritted his teeth fiercely

   "Our marshal this time, Earl A Sugan!" Batu drank another sip of kumiss, calming down his excitement.

"You don't know, that Ashokan and the gangsters of the Grassland Caravan had colluded long ago. At the moment of the war, we all took the initiative to ask for a fight, but Ah Suqian forced us to camp on the spot and was not allowed to fight privately. As a result, he was caught in the middle of the night. The enemy’s sneak attack, the camp door opened wide, and we didn’t have the power to fight back. We were caught off guard by the enemy and there was nowhere to hide. I was chopped with eight knives on my body, and an arrow was hit in my leg. The arrow was clamped in the flesh. It was not taken out. The scene was chaotic. I don't know how many brothers died in that night attack."

   Batu said that tears were already flashing in his eyes, and he drank the kumiss on the table.

   Shao Yu also found that Batu was limping while walking, still wondering what was going on. It turned out that he was seriously injured. ,

   "Brother Nabatu is still very lucky" Shao Yu said

   "If it were not for my brothers desperately to cover me, I am afraid I would have to confess to the battlefield, but unfortunately few of them have returned alive." Batu said that a trace of wounds flashed in his eyes, and there was a strong resentment.

   "We have a team of more than 30 people, and now there are less than 15 people who have come back, and they are all injured to varying degrees. The others have explained there. After the two brothers came back, they still did not hold on, and were seriously injured."

After hearing this, Shao Yu wanted to understand why the 3,000-man Kujit Cavalry Corps failed to defeat the two-thousand-man Raiders, and even if it failed, it was at least a loss for both sides. Kujit’s army was completely defeated, and the Prairie Caravan was almost defeated. Not destructive, but more powerful, and even capable of organizing large-scale siege.

   "Where is the Earl A Sugan?" Shao Yu then asked

   "That bastard, a few days ago, he led his troops to forcibly occupy the city of Turga, and there are several small lords with him. Now he is holding high the banner of rebellion," Batu replied

   "Oh~" Shao Yu couldn't help sighing after hearing Batu's words

   "This is one hundred dinars, take it to your brothers to heal, Brother Batu" Shao Yu said and threw a heavy bag of gold coins on the table

   "No, this is what you and your brothers earned desperately, I can't take it" Batu looked at the gold coins on the table in surprise for a while, hesitated for a while and finally said

   "It's nothing. The last time I got rid of an absconding assassin for the lord of Kudan, I got three hundred dinars, take it, even if you don't need it, don't your brothers need it either?" Shao Yu said

"I respect your brothers, they are true warriors. Besides, there is a great chaos today, even the frontier fortress like Sagittarius will inevitably be affected. The family of your dead brothers will have a better life now." Shao Yu Sincerely

   "Brother Batu has heard of Schulesburg, right?" Shao Yu asked

   "Schulesburg? You mean the remote Schules village, right?" Batu asked after hearing this.

   "Yes, there was still Schules Village not long ago" Shao Yu replied

   "I have heard of it. Not long ago, a lord of unknown origin occupied it and defeated Lord Rodela of Kudan. It is said that he has achieved independence," Batu said.

"Yes, that lord is my friend. I heard that there is a genius doctor there, and anyone who has just died can be rescued. If the arrow in your leg is not taken out in time, it will be life-threatening if it takes a long time, I will write to you A letter, you take your brothers to Schulesburg, they will treat your brothers for free," Shao Yu said to Batu

"I heard that the people there are treated very well. Soldiers don’t have to worry about death. Anyway, there are territories to raise their children and parents. The wounded soldiers are treated by highly skilled doctors. Why doesn’t Brother Batu consider letting them? The family of the deceased moved to live in Schulersburg, or you can go there yourself, a warrior like you can definitely be reused there."

   Shao Yu said that he did not forget to advertise for Elaine's Schulesburg, after all, it is his own subordinate territory.

   "I also heard that the lord there is a good person, and they have also come here to promote it. Many people in the surrounding villages of Sagitcherburg are discussing whether to go there." Batu said

   Shao Yu was overjoyed when he heard that, Batu’s impression of Schulersburg was quite good. After some conversation, Shao Yu had already developed love for Batu and planned to receive Batu under his own hands. Now seems hopeful

   "But no matter what others think, I will not go. After all, I am a soldier of the Khergit Khanate. It is my duty to be loyal to the country and loyal to my lord. This is the honor of a soldier."

   Batu continued

   Shao Yu couldn't help being disappointed~www.readwn.com~ but at the same time I appreciate Batu even more.

   It can be seen that this is a brave and loyal cavalry captain, you can see it from the fact that his brothers desperately cover him from the battlefield.

   "Ha, I just make a suggestion." Batu didn't want to go, and Shao Yu didn't want to force it. Just say

   At the same time, Shao Yu quickly turned off the topic and returned to the previous question

   "According to your opinion, will Asugan be a member of the prairie caravan" Shao Yu asked next

   "I said you are an outsider, right" Batu smiled

"Remember that I told you about the rise of the prairie caravan. It was in the year of the death of the Jerak Khan. According to the tradition of the Kujit, after the death of each Khan, his sons have the right to inherit the Khan. The two successors at that time, Sega Khan and his younger brother Dastam Khan fought fiercely for the Khan position. In the end Dastam failed, and he has since lost the news."

   "And not long after, the prairie caravan began to grow stronger at an astonishing speed"

   Batu began to talk about things that many people in the Kujit Khanate know. This is a secret, but now it's an open secret. Of course, this is limited to some people.

   "You mean the leader of the prairie caravan is the missing Dastam Khan!?" Shao Yu said unexpectedly.

   Although I guessed that Kujit's thing was not easy, I didn't expect it to be the same.

   The rebellion of several lords of Count Naasokhan also made sense, a naked coup.

   Batu was noncommittal, only smiled, and said in a low voice, "It's a pity that my caravan brother is dead. It's not clear."

   then got up and left the room, taking away the kumiss left on the table by the way.
