Chen Hai temporarily handed over Deng tonger and other thief chieftains to Ning chaner for control. More than 300 Kou soldiers were divided into half of them to fan Dachun''s elite cavalry and half into the horse infantry.
The scale of Ma Bujun should not continue to expand.
Although there were also two or three thousand slaves in jinxiangling, Chen Hai only selected some craftsmen and four or five hundred strong people to be incorporated into the horse infantry and baggage camp, and the other slaves were allowed to go or stay; The grain, grass and bulk materials in jinxiangling were also opened to slaves and nearby tribes.
However, Deng tong''er and others could not escape. As an old horse thief who has been entrenched in the vicinity for more than 30 years, all the precious properties, magic weapons and pills accumulated over the years naturally fell into Chen Hai''s hands.
Deng tonger and other thieves were also dragged down by these properties.
Although Deng tong''er is the most important property in the storage ring, everyone also carries thousands of kilograms of weight (after the weight reduction of the storage ring, it also weighs three or five hundred kilograms). Originally, their strength is poor. Even if there are more obstacles, they will have no possibility to escape under the hands of Chen Hai and Ning chaner.
In particular, the four Dragon and tiger pulse cutting pills and other medium and high-level elixirs carried by Deng tonger are useless for Chen Hai, Ning chaner and fan Dachun. They are all used as trophies to reward the generals.
Although Chen Hai''s nine armour breaking arrows were smashed in the fierce battle, the black mountain stronghold seized 2000 Jin of xuantai refined iron, and the jinxiangling also seized 700 Jin of xuantai refined iron. In addition to Han wendang and others who are going to go to thousands of Jin of xuantai refined iron to strengthen the xuanbing in his hand, Chen Hai can still cast more than ten more armour breaking arrows for use.
The day after Chen Hai and his team successfully conquered Jinxiang mountain, they were ready to drive to the magic Moon Lake. When an eagle roared from the far sky, they looked up and saw a giant black feather scale eagle flying here from the southeast.
Black feather scale eagle, also known as iron scale eagle, is a common demon bird in the depths of the desert, but a giant eagle with four or five feet wide spread wings is very rare. It is afraid that there has been a climate for hundreds of years. The scale claw and iron beak are as iron and as hard as gold and iron. The roaring of the eagle is like hitting gold and stone and shaking the blue clouds.
"That''s the master''s Mount!" the leader of the horse thief who surrendered in jinxiangling can recognize this iron scale giant eagle at a glance. It''s really a spirit bird around the master''s desert demon killing tiger.
The iron scale Giant Eagle originally came to contact Deng tong''er with a letter, but it had the intelligence of ordinary people. In addition, the demon pupil was very sharp. Seeing the situation below, it immediately stopped hovering at a high altitude of 10000 steps and didn''t fly down.
Ten thousand feet high has far exceeded the range of xuantai iron bow. Ning chaner destroys the spirit sword, but he can''t kill the iron scale giant eagle; Although xuanxiu can fly against the wind, even those with strong daodan territory can hardly compare their flight speed with this demon bird born to soar in the sky and have a climate of hundreds of years.
Chen Hai and Ning chaner really want to chase the past. The iron scale Eagle doesn''t know where to fly early.
"The national envoy, this iron scale eagle was originally a guardian spirit bird kept by Deng''s Jingjue city for 400 years. Later, I took refuge in Jinxiang ridge, but was taken away by Hu Junhu," Deng tong''er stood up and said, "please send me up. I may help the national envoy subdue this spirit eagle for the use of the national envoy."
Deng tong''er wants to recover his accomplishments, which can''t be achieved in three or five days. At this time, Chen Hai or Ning chan''er can only help him get up into the air slowly; Only Deng tong''er went up, he would not scare the giant eagle away.
Fan Dachun winked at Chen haipin and worried that Deng tonger would run away with an eagle.
Although Deng tong''er took the soul devouring pill, he fled to the Hu Junhu and Kong Peng whose cultivation was at the peak of Mingqiao territory and daodan territory. He may not have no means to remove the poison.
Chen Hai ignored fan Dachun''s warning and pinched the formula with both hands. A few strands of seemingly small wind force came out violently, turned into several wind ropes, wound around Deng tong''er''s waist, and slowly sent them to the high altitude.
Of course, the wind rope urged by Chen Hai sent Deng tong''er up to the sky at the limit distance of three or four thousand feet.
At this moment, I saw the iron scale Giant Eagle swooping down as fast as a black lightning. It waved its huge wings as sharp as xuanbing, which were made of gold and stone. At once, it easily broke the wind rope. Two huge scales and claws grabbed Deng tong''er and flew to the far air.
Fan Dachun was about to complain that Chen Hai didn''t believe his reminder. Soon, he saw that the giant eagle that grabbed Deng tonger stopped at a high altitude and didn''t mean to escape immediately. It seemed that Deng tonger was persuading the giant eagle to obey here.
The giant eagle circled and roared in the sky, which seemed to be full of discontent, but after watching with fear for less than half an hour, the giant eagle finally caught Deng tonger and slowly flew down.
"Your false national envoy identity is really easy to use!" Ning chaner glanced at Chen Hai and said.
Fan Dachun and Han wendang pretended not to hear what Ning chaner was saying.
Chen Hai heard fan Dachun talk about Deng tong''er''s past and guessed that Deng tong''er failed to recover his family many times. Finally, he was forced to take refuge in jinxiangshan under the situation. However, in his heart, he should not be willing to be completely reduced to a horse thief who robbed his family, but Deng''s power in Pinglu oasis has been devastated. Deng tong''er still wants to restore the rule of Jingjue City, so he can only rely on external forces.
At present, it seems that Deng tong''er still believes that they are capable of helping him recapture Jingjue city from the Ye family of the Western Qiang state; Even though all the thieves of Kong Peng are secretly plotting to overthrow Ye family, the king of Western Qiang, Deng tonger is alone and badly hurt. Even if he can escape to Kong Peng and other thieves, he can''t be paid much more attention. Who will hand over the Jingjue city to his rule.
If Deng tong''er wants to restore his rule over Jingjue City, he can''t abandon the direct combat power captured by Chen Li; Chen Li''s identity can also be used cheaply -- even if Deng tonger knows that Chen Hai''s identity may not be true, sometimes it only needs a name to act.
"Lingying is willing to work for the envoy and hope that the envoy can treat him well." Deng tong''er came over and said to Chen Hai.
The giant eagle stands with its wings folded. It is also nearly two feet tall. Its scales and claws are thicker than elephant legs. It is dark, mysterious and black. It looks like gold and stone. It is as sharp as a top-grade xuanbing. Although it has not opened up its ancestral orifices to know the sea, it reveals a strong breath that is not weaker than the strong ones in the Ming orifices. Its demon pupil stares at Chen Hai sharply. Although it flies down to be attached to Deng tonger, it still has the arrogance of being a big demon.
"Of course, I''ll make Lingying an eagle captain at this time. All generals regard it as colleagues, and no one will be slighted..." Chen Haichao arched his hand at the giant eagle.
A small group of horse thieves are precarious and have no ability and patience to domesticate spirit birds. However, the east of Jinzhou was swept by the great Yan Xi expedition 20 years ago. A large number of spirit birds died in battle, and it takes a lot of time to domesticate them again. Even for the Western Qiang army, even if it is a low-level spiritual bird of the black feather giant eagle at this time, there are only more than 100. For example, the iron scale giant eagle, which has a climate of three or four hundred years and can be domesticated or supported by the human race, although it is not as good as the green scale thunder Eagle around Chen lie, it is extremely rare in the hands of horse thieves or in the Western Qiang country.
Although the xuanxiu whose cultivation is above the spirit realm can fly against the wind and even against weapons (swords), even the strong people in the Mingqiao realm can breathe through heaven and earth, and the speed and sustainability of flying in the air can not be compared with the spiritual birds born to fly in the sky.
If the giant eagle had arrived at jinxiangling two days earlier, Deng tonger and more than a dozen legitimate horse thief leaders would fly away in the air by the giant eagle, and Chen Hai and Ning chaner would have no chance to stop them.
Therefore, it is much more useful to subdue the giant eagle than Deng tonger''s sincere obedience to a certain extent. In this way, Chen Hai can at least monitor the current trend of Yequ mountain and the Western Qiang country, and will not attack all the way on the northern edge of the Western Qiang country.
The giant eagle was originally sent by Hu Junhu, the leader of jinxiangling mountain, to contact Deng tonger and other heads. The letter carried the latest trend of Xishan coalition army.
According to the secret letter sealed by Chen haizhan in the fine copper pipe, he knew that ye Qinglin, the younger brother of the Lord Ye chentian, the southern army of the Western Qiang state and one of the core figures of the Ye royal family, led 20000 elite to ride out of Pinglu oasis and rush to Yequ mountain to rescue the princess of Yuecheng half a month ago, that is, shortly after they succeeded in their raid on Heishan stronghold.
Ye Qinglin led his troops to Yequ mountain, and all the Ma Kou scattered in a crowd. However, when the 20000 cavalry of the Western Qiang state welcomed Dong Ning back to Pinglu Dalu Prefecture and crossed the Songyang River, they encountered an ambush by all the Kou.
At first, when Chen Hai arrived at Songyang lake with the troops of Yequ mountain to unite with the bandits, there were only 10000 bandits gathered in Songyang lake at that time. However, when the Songyang River ambushed the cavalry of the southern army of the Western Qiang state, another group of horse thieves rushed to reinforce from the western region of the Western Qiang state, increasing the scale of the bandits to more than 20000.
Although the leader of jinxiangling did not specify in his letter which mountain the horse thieves who came to help later came from, even if the 100000 Li Jinzhou desert was included, there were only a few horse thieves with tens of thousands of troops. Chen Hai speculated that the horse thieves were probably disguised by the soldiers of Tibet and Qiang. After all, the last person who wants to see the marriage between the Western Qiang state and the Dong family in Hexi mainly wants the Western Qiang state as a springboard to attack the Tibetan and Qiang state in Hexi.
Twenty thousand cavalry troops of the Western Qiang state were attacked in the Songyang River, and suffered a great defeat when they were unprepared; As the passage to the West guipinglu oasis was closed, thousands of disabled soldiers were forced to escort the chariots and horses to the west of the river to withdraw eastward again and return to the Yueya Lake oasis to stand by for help.
It may be that the horse thieves are used to sneak attacks, are not used to fighting tough battles, and failed to eat all the remnants of the reinforcements of the Western Qiang country, or it may be to further lead the troops and horses of the Western Qiang country to Pinglu oasis. The joint forces of the invaders are not eager to attack the remnants of the reinforcements of the Western Qiang country -- Hu Junhu did not make it clear in his letter.
In addition, the most important news is that Zhu Kou has no intention of dividing troops into the depths of the vast desert to pursue and suppress the soldiers and horses of Yequ mountain. At the same time, the soldiers and horses of Yequ mountain are much stronger than they thought. Zhu Kou has ordered many left behind soldiers and horses of small and medium-sized mountain strongholds to give up the stronghold temporarily and concentrate on magic Moon Lake and Guhuo mountain to fight against the soldiers and horses of Yequ mountain.
Hu Junhu wrote this letter to ask Deng tonger to break through the siege and rush to the magic Moon Lake to meet with other thieves, but he didn''t expect that Deng tonger didn''t stick to the Golden Elephant ridge. Finally, he fell into Chen Hai''s hands together with the letter and Lingying.
