Chapter 3 Pegasus Ranch
I smiled and hugged Fu Junhao in my arms, put my hand into her clothes and stroked it, making Fu Junhao blushed, her face turned red, and her breath was like orchid. She said in a sweet voice: "Husband, Jun'er knows that he is wrong, Sister Zhen and the others are watching. Let's... let's go to the car? When you get in the car, Jun'er will follow your husband in everything."
My favorite thing is to see Fu Junma's shy look, which always makes people feel intoxicated. I teased: "Jun'er's suggestion should be followed, but what does Jun'er want to go to the car with her husband?"
Fu Junmao's peach color was darker. She was so embarrassed that she hurriedly broke away from my arms, ran to our carriage, turned around and looked at me with a smirk, her eyebrows and eyes were filled with emotion, and she was so ashamed that she got into the carport.
After laughing twice, I said, "Shang Lie."
When Shang Lie heard my summons, he immediately came to me and said, "Please give me orders, Lord."
I smiled and said, "We have almost rested, and it's time to go on the road. I always feel that the series of things that have happened these days are a bit strange. Logically speaking, the Jianghuai Army shouldn't attack Jingling at this time. Something must have happened in some places. Notify all the brothers and prepare to set off."
After hearing this, Shang Lie said, "The Lord's premonition has always been very accurate. The subordinate immediately ordered him. Please get on the car."
I nodded and continued, "My carriage is in the front. I am responsible for the safety of the carriage I am riding. You and the other seventeen riders can protect the other four carriages. We will speed up our pace and head straight to the Pegasus Ranch. I am afraid that there will be any change."
My wife and I each have the skills to do, and we are not afraid of the bumps of the carriage. But the four carriages behind are different. The carriages are full of weak women. If they move too fast, how can they stand it? So we took a day to ride alone for four days, and we arrived within the sphere of influence of the "Peak Horse Ranch" on the morning of the fourth day.
Fu Junmao poked his head out and stroked the back of Magic Dian with a smile. Over the days, Zhenzhen, Junmao and other women, and Fengyun Eighteen Cavalry, have been in contact with Magic Dian in their spare time. Zhenzhen and other women can now touch the body of Magic Dian. However, it firmly refused to touch the Eighteen Cavalry, making the Eighteen Cavalry laugh and cry. Especially Shang Lie, who loves horses as if they are life, was even more annoyed. Unexpectedly, the legendary dragon horse is so lustful. Haha, in fact, it is not. It is thought that because each of Fu Junmao and others has my consciousness. Although it is very weak, it is full of my breath. Therefore, they can directly contact Magic Dian without angering it.
Fu Junmao turned his head and saw that there was still an anxious look on my face. He asked with concern: "My husband has been frowning all day long and his smile is hard to open. Why are he worried about something in his heart?"
I nodded and frowned and said, "Well, the shadow in my heart has become heavier and heavier in the past two days. Although I have reached the boundary range of the 'Peak Ranch', this ominous premonition is getting heavier and heavier. If I expected it, it should be that the 'Peak Ranch' is in trouble."
Wei Zhenzhen said: "What danger will be there in Pegasus Ranch? Is it because the Jianghuai Army wants to attack them? But isn't Du Fuwei actively preparing to attack Jingling now? He shouldn't have the ability to fight on both sides."
I said, "Du Fuwei does not have the intention to attack Pegasus Ranch. Although he is a gangster, he has always been open and honest. Besides, with his current strength, he will never mobilize troops to attack Pegasus Ranch. If someone really attacks Pegasus Ranch, he should be another leader of the Jianghuai Army, Fu Gongyou of Hefei. Recently, it has been reported that the conflict between him and Du Fuwei is becoming increasingly serious. I think this matter is determined to be difficult for him to escape. Fu Gongyou's Hefei army is mainly naval army and is good at water warfare. Land warfare is not his strength. But now in the form of fighting for the world, the main purpose of siege is to capture cities and land warfare, so Fu Gongyou urgently needs a large number of war horses to expand his cavalry and enhance the ability of Hefei's land warfare. Once he really breaks with Du Fuwei, this powerful cavalry will be the all-round surprise he uses to fight for the world."
Song Yuzhi said: "So he will become greedy for the Pegasus Ranch. Today, the only place to provide the war horses needed to form a tens of thousands of cavalry is the world-famous "Pegasus Ranch". But as far as I know, Pegasus Ranch has always been neutral to all strengths and will definitely not get involved in the disputes around the world. My father and second uncle have also sent envoys to the Pegasus Ranch many times to win over their relationship, and the second uncle even visited him in person, but unfortunately he was politely rejected by the owner of Pegasus Ranch. Fu Gongyou's reputation was not very good, so how could Pegasus Ranch agree to him?"
Fu Junmao said strangely: "Does Pegasus Ranch really have such strength? It can maintain a neutral position in troubled times. But since they have such strong strength, they should have been famous all over the world. Why have I never heard from my master mention that there is such a powerful force in the Central Plains? Haha, it seems that the master is not very clear about the matter in the Central Plains. Let us ask our good husband to talk to me."
After hearing this, I nodded and smiled, "Haha, do you think the master is "? The Central Plains is vast and the relationship between the various sects and forces is complicated. How can you be clear just by traveling in the Central Plains a few times?
Ordinary people may not know the name of "Peak Horse Ranch", but it is definitely familiar to the prominent clans and clans that hold heavy troops or the famous sects that dominate the country. Especially in today's era of chaos and turbulent times, Pegasus Ranch has become the target of major forces' competing for them, and its value is very popular."
I saw that everyone except Song Yuzhi was listening attentively. Song Yuzhi came from a large family and naturally understood the "Peak Horse Ranch". These things were very familiar to her.
I continued: "In the southwest of Jingling County, the two tributaries of the Yangtze River, Zhang River and Ju River, draw a large triangular Woyuan from the boundary. The two rivers flow through, irrigating the fertile fields on both sides, and finally recirculating into the river.
The climate here is mild, the soil is fertile, and the products are abundant. Among them, the fields where the Pegasus Pasture is located have a more abundant grass. It is surrounded by mountains and covers more than ten miles of fertile fields. There are only two gorges from east to west for entry and exit. The situation is dangerous, forming a natural protective cover for the pasture.
Shang Xiong, the first Pegasus Ranch owner who built this castle, was a military general at the end of the Jin Dynasty. At that time, Liu Yu replaced Jin Dynasty and changed the country's name to Song, and Tiandi split.
In order to avoid the war, Shang Xiong led his subordinates and his tribesmen to go south. By chance, Jilu found the hidden Guyuan, and then lived and worked in peace and established a ranch.
In the 160 years from the construction of the ranch to the unification of the Sui Dynasty, the Pegasus Ranch experienced seven owners, all of whom were inherited by the Shang clan and had supreme authority.
The others are Liang, Liu, Tao, Wu, Xu, Luo and other ethnic groups. After more than a hundred years of reproduction, they have been moving out of the surrounding areas and formed nearby towns. They reach the two big cities of Yuan'an and Dangyang in Jushui. More than half of their residents are from Pegasus Ranch.
Pegasus Ranch is also the economic lifeline of this area. It produces high-quality horses and is well-known all over the world. However, because the owners follow the ancestral teachings, they will never participate in the affairs between the world and the court, have a low-key style and always speak business by doing business, so this is also the main reason why the master and the old man do not know about Pegasus Ranch.
Shang Xiong, the first generation of the owner, was born as a military general and understood the truth about fists. He encouraged his tribesmen to study martial arts and promote martial arts style. Therefore, everyone in the ranch was brave and good at fighting without fear of bandits and tyrants. He became a force that could ensure the safety of the region and won the respect of the residents of nearby towns. It was a bit similar to the role of dominating the villa on Jingling."
After hearing this, Fu Junyu clapped his hands and said, "Hehe, after my husband said this, I really hope to see this Pegasus Ranch earlier. Haha, I just don't know what the scene would happen if the thousands of war horses in this Pegasus Ranch saw my magic power?"
Fu Junqian's eyes lit up and he shouted, "Senior sister is right. Haha, if all the horses in the Pegasus Ranch knelt down and kowtow to our magic lightning, the scene would have been spectacular. Maybe it would make the owner's nose irritated."
I suddenly realized that I forgot all the fact that the magic light is the dragon horse of the emperor. Things in the world are unpredictable, and I hope there will be no accidents at that time, so as not to ruin my "big event".
Su Su smiled and said, "If this is the case, we might be able to occupy the light of the magic light. Hehe, it's good to have a fox and a tiger. Think about it, your husband is really capable. Not only can he subdue the dragon horse, but he seems to know everything in the world clearly."
I smiled "haha" and said, "If I hadn't had some skills, how could I marry so many beautiful people in the world?"
While teasing, Shang Lie's voice came from outside the carriage, "Report to the Lord, after passing the mountain path we are walking on, you can go directly to the Pegasus Ranch. From here, the scenery is beautiful. I dare to ask the Lord and the ladies to get off the car and enjoy it."
I smiled and said, "Okay." Before the sound of "Okay", Fu Junqian had already rushed out of the carriage. Several of us looked at each other and laughed, and we all walked off the carriage one after another, walked along the mountain road, and enjoyed the pleasing beauty of the Pegasus Ranch.
Our group of people and vehicles walked around a narrow path and passed the mountain road. When we arrived at the mountain ridge with bird's eye view of the pasture, we saw the fields at the foot of the mountain like blankets of different sizes, forming beautiful patterns, and we couldn't help but feel relaxed.
On the grass full of pleasing colors, green, and black colors, more than a dozen lakes of different sizes are attached to them like a mirror. The green lake water and the green shadows compete with each other, with a stream of brilliance and vitality, making the two of them breathe and admire.
No matter from any angle, the end of the grassland is filled with undulating peaks and endless extensions.
In this paradise that looks like a fairy scenery, there are various breeding poultry and livestock - white sheep, yellow or gray cattle, and horses of all colors, each enjoying their own leisure and resting, making the entire farm more colorful.
On a higher terrain in the northwest corner, there is a magnificent castle, with a steep cliff as walled as a wall, and a winding river in front of it, which makes people even more spectacular.
At this time, everyone dismounted and walked, and my wife and I walked in the middle, making me feel fascinated and intoxicated, and it felt quite worthwhile to go there.
Several of my beautiful wives are focusing on their beautiful and picturesque scenery, while Fengyun Shibaqi and I are paying attention to the sentry towers and forts built in various dangers and key points. This may be an instinctive reaction of a warrior who has been in the battlefield. He always subconsciously regards all strategic situations as the object of observation first. Unlike women, they can always perceive all beautiful and moving things from one picture. This may be the difference between women's delicateness and men's roughness.
I sincerely exclaimed: "The Pegasus Ranch is indeed well-known and has a unique territory. No wonder it has grown to its current strength. Haha, Shang Xiong's vision is unique." Suddenly, I felt a few faint auras moving in the forests on both sides of the mountain road. Judging from the breath, these people's martial arts are mediocre, and they should be just some shrimp soldiers and crab generals who are exploring the way.
At this time, Shang Lie quietly came to me and whispered: "Master, according to the observation of his subordinates, there are ambushes in the forests on both sides. Should we catch them back and interrogate them in detail, we will definitely get some useful information from them."
I nodded and praised, "I am a veteran who has been through the battlefield for a long time. We can always be vigilant. We don't have to pay attention to them now and let them see them, so as not to alert the snake. Then we will suffer if we want to catch big fish. If you secretly order, let your brothers pretend that they have not seen anything. We just drive our way, ignore everything, wait until we reach the Pegasus Ranch."
Shang Lie nodded and said yes, slowed down and ordered the other seventeen horsemen without any trace.
How could the cultivation of the women such as Wei Zhenzhen not realize that something was wrong? But I didn’t react to me and didn’t see any movements in the Eighteen Riders. Although I was puzzled, I knew that I had to make arrangements in my heart, so I didn’t show any expressions, and I still watched the picturesque scenery around the ranch with a chat and laugh.
After walking out of the mountain road, I had already entered the alert range of the Pegasus Ranch. When I was exploring the breath in the forest again, I did not see the sentry peeping in the ambush again.
There is a city tower at the exit of the gorge. A tunnel three meter wide and five meter deep was dug in front of the building. It is crossed with the mouth of the gorge, and the bottom is covered with sharp thorns. It must pass by a suspension bridge. It is indeed a sign that one man is at the pass and ten thousand man cannot cross it.
