Chapter 18 Daji is in danger

In late autumn, the cool wind once again passed through the Yiluo Basin, which was another good season for hunting. A hunting team of more than 30 people surrounded two carriages and slowly walked, and the nine-tailed fox clan flag was flying in the wind.

"Hey, why is there a small town here?" asked a beautiful girl in a tight white hunting suit on the carriage. I don't know if she was talking to herself or asking the person in the same carriage.

What caught her eye was not the city, but a small castle that was only more than 30 meters long and wide. The walls were a mixed structure of rammed earth and logs, about seven meters high. There were small warehouses, horse sheds, wells and other facilities in the city. In the middle of the city was a base formed by rammed earth, and there were several thatched earth-stage structures on the platform. There was a towering watchtower on the small square surrounded by the building. An ochre dragon flag was flying on the tower.

This is the northernmost outpost fort in Xia Kingdom, located at the Yishuiluo hydride convergence.

A soldier with armor ran out of the fort, met the team, bowed and had not had time to ask questions.

A slightly fat middle-aged man with a white face on the other party's carriage spoke first: "Who are you soldiers? Build here...what is this called...and what is the purpose?"

The soldier said in a humble manner: "We are soldiers from Xia and are ordered by the king to garrison this outpost to prevent thieves and Huaiyi. There is no other meaning."

"Huaiyi? A joke, where did Huaiyi come from in this area?" After pausing, the middle-aged man stroked his beard and continued, "Xia Fang? Ben Bo has heard of it, and he doesn't know where he moved it. He has risen rapidly in the south of Heluo in the past or two years..."

"I dare to ask where you are from and who are you in Heluo?" the soldier continued to ask politely.

Before the middle-aged man could answer, the girl in white in the car asked: "Is your king famous? " She is Su Daji. She has discovered that the armor of the soldiers is highly similar to the bronze shield guards in Su Yi who have been connected to Su Yi in the past few years, so she asked like this.

But this soldier was not a bronze shield guard. Due to the abundant copper mineral output, Hua had already replaced all the Hu Ben melee soldiers of the Xia Kingdom with equipment similar to those of the bronze shield guards. Even the militias of the Xia Kingdom headquarters also replaced all the long spears with three-meter long spears.

The soldier replied to Su Daji: "Our lord is Xia Bohua. How dare you ask who you are?"

"It's him! We are from the Su Kingdom, and we are acquaintances with your king, so we came here to hunt. My family has the surname Su Ji and the name Da Su Daji." Daji became excited and blurted out his words.

Her father, Su Guojun Su Bohu, glared at her fiercely, lowered his voice and said, "The boss is still so unstable."

But the sergeant said, "You are really familiar with the Lord? Do you need to know the Lord?"

"Do you monarch live here?" Daji asked in surprise.

"Of course the Lord will not live here, but we have a way to inform him immediately."

"No need. Da'er, let's go," Su Bo said calmly. The car started and the team continued to go south.

...

"Is it that boy two years ago? I almost forgot it. Unexpectedly, in more than two years, he became the leader of one side and was also a generous country that could dominate one side."

"It was him. When he left us with Su, he was very... very special. There were more than ten warriors coming to pick him up, and he seemed to take it for granted."

Daji said calmly. When she first met Hua, she had a good impression of Hua, then she was grateful for her life-saving grace, and finally she was curious. These mixed together made Hua occupy a place deep in her heart. She had not heard from her for more than two years, but she still remembered him from time to time.

"This kid must have told us lies back then," Su Bo said with a frown.

"Maybe there is something unspeakable about others. Father, don't think too much. It doesn't matter if his truth or lies are our Su." Daji defended Hua unknowingly.

After half a day of travel, the team stopped at a bay in the upper reaches of the Yi River. Su Bo got off the carriage, and Daji also jumped out of the carriage and moved his muscles. The two took the big bow and quivered the archer handed over by the servant, and prepared to go into the forest to hunt with their tribesmen.

Leisurely, more than a dozen people emerged from the woods, all of whom were holding bows and arrows, and leading hunting dogs that began to bark. Obviously, they were also hunting groups. A man with a fat face but luxurious clothes narrowed his eyes and glanced at the nine-tailed fox flag. His lips twitched, and said, "Are you from the Su tribe? What's going to do here?"

"That's right, I'm waiting here to hunt. I'm sure you are..." Su Bohu asked.

"Haha, there is something wrong with you having the Su tribe on the north bank of the river, and you run here to hunt."

He just took his daughter out to hunt. He was first asked by the soldiers at the Xia State Post, but now he was troubled by unknown people. Su Bo had never encountered these things in his hunting area in the past year. So he said impatiently: "Who are you? I have been here to hunt every autumn for more than ten years. What's wrong with it?"

"We are from Chongfang. We set up a new feature here last year, so this area is now our Chongfang hope. You might as well go hunting elsewhere." The fat man said with a slanted eye.

"Does your surrounding mountains, rivers and rivers become yours? What's more, where is your new nature? Why didn't I see it?" Su Daji next to him raised his eyebrows and asked sternly.

The fat man noticed Su Daji. He was about to have an attack, but when he saw Daji's face, he was stunned. He looked up and down in a daze.

"No need to talk about it anymore. You are not worthy of talking to me. Let your king Chongbohu come to talk to me. I have Su Bohu, the king of Su." Su Bohu said coldly to the fat man.

The fat man sneered and said, "I am Chong Bohu, what do you want to say to me?" While saying that, he winked at the people around him. The escort immediately took out a horn and started to blow.

Su Bohu suppressed his anger and said to everyone from the Su tribe, "Let's go." After that, he got on the carriage. Su Daji was angry, but when he saw his father's eyes at him, he had to follow him on the carriage.

...

Chong Bohu squinted his eyes and looked at the team that had already left, thinking about it, more than 300 guards and servants summoned by the horns had gathered around him.

Suddenly, as if he had made up his mind, he glared at him and said, "Chase, kill them, and leave that girl behind."

"Master, no, the group of people from Chongguo are catching up again." The servant Su who found out that the situation was, shouted to Su Bohu in the carriage.

Su Bohu turned his head and saw hundreds of people chasing him in the distance, thinking that "It must be that the other party has a bad intention". He ordered the coachman to speed up his journey and escape downstream along Yishui.

"Master, hurry up, you and the little lady will leave first, and we will break the rear." A guard said to Su Bohu.
