Chapter 459: Encountering barbarians on the road, doing secret things

"Yeah, how could the barbarians be mixed with the Dali?"

"Hehe, we'll know if we catch them and ask them."

"Don't be reckless!"

Ning Fan shook his head and said softly, "After all, this is not my Dayu, let's wait for them to come and ask."

"Yeah!"

Several people nodded, Dian Wei's eyes were full of murderous intent, his hands tightly grasped the halberd, looking at the cavalry approaching.

"Go!"

The cavalry galloped quickly, and in just a moment, they had arrived in front of Ning Fan and his party. The mountain was cold, and a cool breeze whistled in.

"Huh"

The leading general reined in his horse in front of Ning Fan and his party, stopped a hundred steps away, and looked at them with a scrutinizing look.

"Who are you?"

"Dayu's envoy."

"Yu people?"

The general was stunned for a moment, but Ning Fan's eyes were cold: "Barbarians?"

"Hahaha!"

"I didn't expect that there would be an unexpected surprise this time. Boys, take down these two-legged sheep of Dayu for me."

The light cavalry general's eyes flashed with a violent light. When he noticed the little dragon girl beside Ning Fan, he showed an obscene look and grinned: "What a pretty little girl."

"Leave a few alive."

Ning Fan glanced at him lightly, and the eighteen knights behind him instantly drew their scimitars and rushed past Ning Fan like a gust of wind. Dian Wei and Xu Chu also raised their weapons and rushed towards the more than a hundred knights in front of them.

"Kill!"

The general waved his hand, and the knights behind him also flattered fiercely and rushed towards the eighteen knights of Yanyun.

"Wait!"

"General... is it... them?"

"Hmm?"

"Wearing winter clothes, with curved swords on waist, masks on face, black scarves on heads, black capes on heads, daggers hidden in riding boots, and long bows on shoulders..."

The knight muttered to himself as if he was reciting a text, his face already replaced by a look of fear, and even his body began to tremble slightly.

The barbarians beside him were all horrified when they heard this!

"Dayu, ghost army?"

"Is it the mysterious Dayu cavalry?"

"Eighteen Riders of Yanyun?"

Just as everyone was shocked, they saw the eighteen riders like tigers entering a flock of sheep, waving curved swords in their hands, and the barbarians in armor fell off their horses one after another. Under the leadership of the two peerless generals, no less than fifty people were buried under their butcher knives in just one encounter.

"Devils... it's them... it must be them!"

"Damn it!"

"Quick... turn your horses around."

The barbarian cavalry wearing Dali armor were all scared out of their wits. They grabbed the reins and wanted to turn their horses around, but since the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun had taken action, how could they let them escape easily?

"Swoosh!"

Eighteen figures took off their longbows from their backs, and arrows whistled. Eighteen arrows hit accurately, and the horses neighed and screamed.

"Spare my life!"

"Sir, spare my life."

Dian Wei and Xu Chu directly passed behind the barbarian cavalry and blocked their retreat. The Eighteen Riders of Yanyun also surrounded the remaining fifty people.

"Bang!"

At this time, the barbarian cavalry had already been scared out of their wits. The weapons in their hands fell to the ground one after another. They looked at Ning Fan and his party with a look of horror. The leading general had already fallen off his horse and crawled to Ning Fan in a hurry.

"Please spare my life, sir!"

"I am blind and have no intention of offending you..."

"Who are you?"

"I...I am the young chief of the Qiuba tribe, please spare my life."

"Qiuba tribe?"

Ning Fan frowned and asked in a deep voice: "Why are you wearing Dali armor and why are you in Dali?"

"This...this..."

"Hmm?"

Dian Wei's face was furious, and he swung the halberd in his hand violently, pressing directly on the neck of the general, and shouted: "You bastard, what did my master ask you? Just say what you want to say. If you tell me the slightest lie, I'll chop off your head!"

"Yes, yes, yes... I said... we're here to... buy food!"

"Buy food?"

Ning Fan got off his horse, walked up to the general, and said gently: "Tell me the whole story from beginning to end, and I'll spare your life. If you tell me a lie, I'll have them slaughter your Qiuba tribe."

"Yes, yes, yes..."

The general had already been scared out of his wits, and a smell of urine spread from his crotch. Ning Fan stepped back a few steps with a look of disgust, covering his mouth and nose.

"Please spare me, sir... We are following orders. Winter is coming soon on the grassland, so this trip is to collect food and grass..."

"Buy food from Dali?"

"No... No!" The barbarian's face was full of fear, and he trembled: "It's from the garrison commander of Shiyuan City..."

"It's not that simple, right?"

Ning Fan's expression became playful, and he said with a smile: "Dali and Nanman are enemies for generations. This garrison commander of Shiyuan City dared to risk the world's disapproval and trade food and grass with Nanman."

"Your Qiuba tribe is quite powerful!"

"No way!"

"Dian Wei, chop him up!"

Ning Fan waved his hand directly, and Dian Wei's eyes rolled up, and he was about to wave the halberd in his hand.

"Wait... I'll tell you..."

"Please spare me, sir, the garrison commander of Shiyuan City surrendered to our Daman three years ago, he is one of us..."

"It is true that we are going to buy food and grass this time, but the tribe leader is going to attack Dali and plunder the country."

"Oh"

Ning Fan's face was full of sneers, and he said lightly: "The Nanman are really thieves who are not dead yet!"

"Tell me your plan in detail."

"Yes, yes..."

Half an hour later, with heads falling one after another, only a few Nanman cavalrymen were left alive. Ning Fan looked at Xu Chu and said softly: "Xu Chu, you will go to Zhoujun to mobilize troops immediately. Their grain and grass transaction will be tonight. You already know the transportation route. I want this batch of grain and grass in Huainan."

"Yes!"

Xu Chu bowed respectfully and rode away immediately. Ning Fan looked at the few barbarians who were knocked unconscious and said with a smile: "This time, we helped Dali a lot. I'm afraid that Her Majesty the Queen will owe me another favor."

"My Lord, according to this barbarian, the barbarians and Dali will have to mobilize at least 10,000 cavalry for this grain and grass trade."

"If we rashly get involved, will we..."

Ning Fan shook his head and said softly: "The defenders of Shiyuan City have now betrayed the country and don't know that their news has leaked. As long as this news is passed to Dali Phoenix Tower, we don't need to worry about anything else."

"Yes!"

"Do we still need to enter the city now?"

"Yes!"

"Since we are here, are we going to sleep in the wilderness?"

"Oh!"

Dian Wei responded stupidly and looked at the barbarians who fainted on the ground: "What should we do with these barbarians?"

"Take them with you!"

"Maybe they can be of some use."
