That's right.

Liu Mingqi asked about the reason why Huo Quba was his temptation.

Think about it.

The small tribe alliance insisted on Liu Mingqi coming. Even the people in the court knew that it was a bit weird. Could Liu Mingqi be a fool?

He knows much more about the conspiracies and tricks from ancient times to the present than these people combined.

So even if he agreed to come to the grassland, he still had to be prepared.

Testing the Fire Song is just the first step.

Oh, no.

The first step is to have a hot air balloon.

In addition to the hot air balloon above his head, three hot air balloons had floated a hundred miles away a day ago.

Then they had to continue floating for a hundred miles. When they saw that there was no accident, they would float back to the fifty miles and stop, just landing at night to replenish fuel and rest.

There are also three hot air balloons that keep floating and patrolling the area between the Small Tribe Alliance and Tongde Mansion.

At the same time, there were always two hot air balloons floating on Liu Mingqi and the others' heads.

With so many hot air balloons continuously monitoring, the guards in the sky seemed to be full.

The second step is that three teams of 100 people have already rushed into the depths of the grassland.

They have the old tradition of the Yulin Guard, and they are scattered into dozens of teams, fifty miles away from Liu Mingqi's team of troops, and are distributed in all directions. Unless a team is all dead, each team is like a hot air balloon, and everyone has a warning firework in their hands and can be fired at any time.

Then Liu Mingqi is now testing Huo Quba.

If Liu Mingqi felt something was wrong, he would immediately send a signal without saying a word. While running back, he would also let Huang Feiyang go out of the city to greet him.

There is one thing that he thought about is similar to the emperor and ministers.

Even a hundred thousand people are not as important as their own lives.

As long as he can live, he will avenge them one day.

The last time he was in Jinzhou City, there was no way. He was forced to that extent, so he decided to die for his country.

Now he has obviously still a way to go, but he is not that stupid.

...

The area from Tongde City to the small tribe alliance is about two hundred miles away.

This is also a safe distance.

Dakang doesn’t have to worry about any surprise attacks in the Small Tribe Alliance, and the Small Tribe Alliance doesn’t have to worry about Dakang suddenly dispatching people and destroying them.

If they need to do business on weekdays, they can travel a hundred miles in advance and go to a temporary trading market to do transactions.

Of course, if they were doing business with the Yi Prince's Mansion, they would not have taken this path at all, but would have to go to the remote city of Maze and enter the Dakang realm from there.

The terrain of the plateau was not very good, and the terrain of Maze City was even worse.

It is full of barren mountains, the terrain is still relatively steep and there is no oil or water. Even the Tubo tribes on the western plateau will not rob it, so it is relatively safe.

Because the distance was too far, Liu Mingqi and his team rested for two nights.

It is common sense not to march at night.

Because there are too many accidents at night, unless it is a specific route you take or a short-distance raid.

Otherwise, even in modern combat, there are very few examples of marching at night.

The Americans have done this, but this is because they are rich. No more than a hundred lights are fired directly into the sky every minute, and you can't hide any ambush.

Even when setting up camp, Yulin Guards and Qianniu Guards chose a slightly higher terrain, allowing Liu Mingqi and Liu Mingjing to live in a tent on the hill, with various temporary trenches and horse-retarding underneath.

Speaking of which, for the convenience of this operation, the guard team did not bring any carriages at all.

However, they rode three horses in one go, and in addition to the horses they rode, there were two horses carrying a lot of things.

Such luxurious equipment is only available this time.

Otherwise, even if the emperor was traveling, there would be a large number of carriages to transport supplies.

The reason why they use horses all is purely for some accidents, Liu Mingqi can escape.

Of course, Huo Quba didn't know about this.

He praised these defense measures repeatedly, saying that such defense is really amazing. If others dare to attack, they will know it immediately.

Xiong Dabao and Zhang Tie just smiled when they heard this, but neither replied to him.

But the two of them told him and his subordinates not to run around and stay in the tent at night.

Huo Quba agreed.

But he didn't know that the two of them were for their safety.

Why?

Because the imperial guards had already set up hundreds of death traps two or three hundred meters away.

That's right.

Liu Mingqi taught them the modern concept of mine warfare.

These things are very useful in the future jungle war, whether they are chasing enemies, protecting themselves from escaping, or protecting camping at night, etc.

Although the official landmines have not been invented yet, this kind of wooden grenade with a fuse is the best material for grenades.

Just unscrew the lid, pull out the fuse, and add some special threads to lengthen it to fix the wooden grenade and fuse, whether it is between two trees, two stones, or even two inserted pieces of wood.

Once a person or horse meets, a wooden grenade will immediately trigger and will explode in a few seconds.

Although they didn't explode immediately like a landmine, they couldn't react at all at this time.

Even if he reacted and avoided it, he could not stop the warning from the explosion sound, and he could not prevent the soldiers from being killed later.

Xiong Dabao and Zhang Tie conducted experiments with fierce horses, sheep, dogs, etc. in the suburbs of Beijing, and each time they achieved very good results. This made them provoke Liu Mingqi and feel that they are really amazing!

Liu Mingjing was also very surprised, and he had the idea of ​​learning more from Liu Mingqi and becoming a more qualified general.

After hearing his request, Liu Mingqi thought to himself that you have found the right person now. I know the command skills of our army on the battlefield, Taizu, Biao Ye, Su Shen, etc.

There is also the hard battles in Goryeo and Nanyue. I have received strict red education. I have watched dozens of movies and TV series, and I can talk about them for three days and three nights with my eyes closed!

...

At a distance of two hundred miles, Liu Mingqi's horse team drove for three days and two nights before arriving.

He is not in a hurry, and he must be cautious when inquiring about intelligence. It is best to make a decision after the information has been summarized.

But he acted very leisurely, just like he was traveling around.

Huo Quba was still a little strange. Did Dakang have no intention of our refuge?

Otherwise, why wouldn't you hurry up and deal with it?

You know, if the Uighurs headquarters knows the news and kills them directly, the situation will not be so wonderful.

After finally reaching the gathering point of the Zhaling tribe, the Huoquba tribesmen blew the horn and sent out signals, hundreds of knights rushed out of the camp.

These knights were wearing all kinds of clothes and did not have any weapons in their hands, but Zhang Qin and Xiong Dabao still stood around Liu Mingqi unconsciously.

"They are here to welcome you, Your Highness!"

Huo Quba smiled, "Look! These are our good guys, and they are the best herders!"

It's also a great source of cavalry.

Liu Mingqi added a sentence in her heart.

Seeing that these knights were about to collide with each other, the Yulin Guards around them could not hold back. However, when they were about twenty meters away, they directly divided into two parts, surrounded the team and quickly surrounded Liu Mingqi's team.

"King of De!"

"King of De!!"

After the young men stopped, they suddenly pulled out their swords and started roaring.

Such behavior is naturally worthy of praise.

Seeing that they admired Liu Mingqi so much, the soldiers of Yulin Guard and Qianniu Guard all moved their hands away.

Inside the skin of any horse they rode, there were dozens of wooden grenades, and a tightly packaged Hell cocktail.

Once there is any situation, they will throw the bomb directly regardless of the situation!!

Liu Mingjing looked at it but was a little dissatisfied: "Why don't these guys call King Wu?"

"Tsk, you can eat this jealousy too?" Liu Mingqi laughed, "When the bonfire banquet tonight, you will be able to win their support by force!"

"yes!"

The second housekeeper Gong Chuxin also said intriguingly: "They will also contribute the most beautiful girls to let them sleep! Your Highness, these girls from outside the territory have a unique charm!"

"Get out!"
