Chapter 440: Youzhou's Top Businessman, Zhang Shiping!

While the summit meeting was held in the Great Wilderness Territory, many things also happened in other places.

In the north of Shenzhou, on the border of Youzhou in the Han Dynasty, there is an endless grassland.

The sun is blazing in the sky, and the breeze is blowing gently.

The vast grassland is green and uninhabited.

Occasionally, waves of wolf howls and beast roars echoed in the vast land.

However, a group of uninvited guests appeared in the sky of the uninhabited grassland. I saw this group of "guests" driving a large number of horses across the grassland and rushing to their destination.

This dragon-like team slowly shuttled across the vast grassland.

From a distance, if you ignore the figures that appeared in the horse herd, then this is a magnificent scene of thousands of horses galloping!

However, this is impossible. Those figures kept driving the horses in an orderly and planned manner. Faintly, not even a horse fell behind or left the team.

The entire horse team, like products on a production line, is in order and has a clear destination!

These horsemen are very experienced and are veterans who are proficient in this field!

Hundreds of people are lurking in a small valley on the grassland far away from the team. Hundreds of people are silent.

The leader showed half of his head and looked at the horse team from afar!

He was not tall and wore a black nightgown. The tight nightgown stretched his muscles to make them sharp. Overall, he looked quite agile and strong.

He held a short knife in his hand. The blade was glowing with a faint green light. It was obviously poisoned. With its cold metallic luster, it was like a poisonous snake ready to bite people at any time.

The pair of eyes exposed outside the mask were like the eyes of an eagle in the dark night, sharp and energetic, with strange lights flowing in them.

On his eagle eyes, two ink-stained sword eyebrows set off his sharpness, like a newly opened sword!

On both sides of this man, there are two capable assistants, who occasionally exude a fierce aura.

Behind him, hundreds of people also wear tough black night clothes, all of them have bright eyes and solemn faces. They are disciplined and lurking meticulously.

"Commander, the target is about to reach Qinglang Plain. In the target's team, one groom is responsible for driving a hundred horses, and this team is estimated to have a thousand grooms!" A subordinate whispered to the leader.

"The first target is Zhang Shiping. During this business trip, the number of horses he bought from abroad alone is about 100,000! These horses are trained war horses, strong and fat, disciplined, and quite rare! Each of them is estimated to be worth more than 300 gold!" A thin spy reported behind the leader.

"One hundred thousand horses! These horses alone are worth thirty million gold! If other rare materials are added, the total value should be able to reach forty million gold! Zhang Shiping is indeed as the Dragon Lord said, with amazing assets!"

"If this transaction is successful, the profit will definitely exceed twenty million gold! The trade route is like the gold route, it really makes sense! If our territory can get his funding, the ordinary funding problem should not be a problem for the time being!" The leader murmured softly, with a strange light flowing in his eagle eyes.

After a moment of silence, the leader asked softly: "How many guards are there in the team?"

"It's still the same as when they left, 50,000 fifth-level elite guards!" said the spy.

"This Zhang Shiping is indeed one of the top merchants in Youzhou. He left Youzhou and went to foreign lands to trade, but the team was unscathed. Just based on this point, the Dragon Lord will pay attention to it!" said the assistant on the right side of the leader.

"Tianjiajiu Commander, when this team reaches the destination, should we still follow the original plan? Or should we act in advance to alert them and clear the enemies for them?" A shrewd man in black on the left said softly.

"Let's act according to the plan. They still have 50,000 elite guards, which should be able to resist this ambush a little. Once they are surrounded, we will act! Saving them from danger is the best thing for us. It can reduce casualties and make them more grateful to us!" The leader laughed.

"Dijiaba, Dijiajiu, you two will lead 300 people to attack from both wings as planned, and I will lead 100 people to cut off their retreat!" The leader, known as Tianjiaqi, said in a serious voice.

When talking about cutting off their retreat, the murderous spirit in the eagle eyes burst out, as if it could devour people, and in the next moment, the murderous spirit in the eyes suddenly retracted, and the fierce murderous spirit suddenly disappeared.

The murderous spirit and murderous spirit, retracted and released freely!

This group of people are the Night Shadows of the Great Wilderness Territory!

The leader is the Night Shadow Corps of the Great Wilderness Territory [A-level Night Shadow of the Heaven Department], Tianjiaqi!

And the people assisting them are [A-level Night Shadow of the Earth Department] Dijiaba and Dijiajiu!

"In addition, you two have just broken through to the Earth Level, and your breath control is still a little lacking. After this operation, remember to practice more. As shadows in the dark, we must be able to control our breath freely. This is good for ourselves and our comrades!"

"Yes!" The two responded respectfully.

"Also, in this operation, we don't have to collect any spoils. This is the first time we appear in front of the target, and we have to leave a deep impression. You don't need to communicate with them, just me!" Tianjiajiu instructed in a serious voice.

Usually, when the Night Shadow Department performs tasks, they are like passing locusts, collecting everything. In this way, in addition to making profits, they can also eliminate their traces!

In addition to the large amount of funding from the territory, the Night Shadows of the Night Shadow Department also get a lot of spoils from their usual operations. This is one of the reasons why they can grow so fast!

"This operation is not in the dark. Everyone should pay attention to safety and not act rashly. Our way focuses on one-hit kills, speed, and efficiency. I have told you this no less than ten times, but I still emphasize it before the battle." Tianjia Jiu said in a condensed voice. At this point, he paused and then said:

"After this operation, I hope everyone can come back alive!"

When performing tasks, even he, who is at the high level of the Earth Rank, cannot say that he is foolproof. The Night Shadow members here are all elite, and losing one will make him feel distressed.

"Yes!" Everyone nodded heavily and responded in a deliberately low voice.

…………

Half an hour later, the cavalry that was slowly marching in the sky had arrived to the west of the Night Shadow's lurking place.

A little further away from the small valley where the Night Shadow Tribe was hiding, there were several man-made trenches for hiding soldiers.

They could be called trenches, or they could be called huge rivers, but there was no water.

In these newly dug trenches, there were densely packed soldiers in green armor. They were enemies who wanted to rob the horse team merchants!

Further west of these trenches, there was the same situation. Several huge trenches lay across the undulating plain. Densely packed soldiers in green armor were lurking in them. From the sky, they looked like long green snakes that devoured people.

There were 100,000 soldiers in each of the two ambush sites!

The horse team just happened to pass through the middle of these two rivers. The passing horse team was completely unaware of the troops on both sides.

On the vast plain, it must have been arranged in advance to be able to hide soldiers like this. Even the marching route of the horse team was so precise. If you say there were no spies, even a three-year-old child would not believe it.

A long team of horses passed slowly through the area, and at this time, many horses became irritable. Some horses even stopped, hesitated to move forward, shook their heads, and made a hissing sound from their mouths.

The experienced horseman realized the abnormality, and while gently soothing the horses, he tilted his head and looked at the plains on both sides.

However, at this moment, on the vast green plain, countless green shadows seemed to emerge from the grassland, and the harsh sound of armor and spears suddenly resounded on this land!

"Kill!" Countless roars came from these green shadows, vast and deafening.

Many horsemen looked at this situation, their bodies weak and their faces pale.

"Green... Green Snake Thief!" The horseman who saw this situation first shouted hesitantly.

The green armored soldiers they saw seemed like evil spirits, as if they had come to hell!

"Green Snake Thief! It's the Green Snake Thief!" Those elite guards also saw the soldiers emerging from both sides at the first time.

"Quick! Form a formation, everyone gather together to prevent the enemy from attacking us in groups!" A guard leader shouted calmly, holding his weapon high, a solemn look on his face.

Not panicking and facing things calmly is one of the qualities of a leader. However, although this leader was calm, the solemn look on his face never disappeared while he was constantly giving orders.

"Don't panic!" In an exquisite and magnificent carriage, a 30-year-old thin man in a blue robe also shouted angrily, and his face was also very solemn, with a terrifying murderous look in his eyes.

This man wore a small green felt hat and had two grooves on his lips, which showed a hint of shrewdness. He concealed his uneasiness and panic and kept giving orders. His command was quite measured and there was no panic at all.

This man was the target of Tianjia Jiu, the top businessman in Youzhou, Zhang Shiping!

"Damn it, how could these Green Snake Thieves appear here in the Green Wolf Plain? Why don't the people of the Green Wolf Leader come to take care of it? Or, have they been bribed?"

"Thieves are thieves, and they are all the same. They can't be trusted! I lost the money I used to bribe them! Humph..." Zhang Shiping was indignant.

But he didn't worry too much, because he also had a trump card. If he was pressed hard, he would use the trump card to turn the tide!

Zhang Shiping stared at the enemy with his eyes shining.

...

"Alas, Green Snake Thieves, it is said that this group of thieves has no bottom line when robbing, and they rob treasures, women, and children. And the other soldiers and able-bodied men were all slaughtered! They are extremely bloodthirsty and brutal! They ambushed here this time, and they must have been prepared. We may be defeated here this time!" The guard leader of the cavalry said in his heart.

"If we can't turn the tide, we can only run with our employer!" After whispering softly, the guard leader's face became firm, and he continued to command the rather panicked soldiers, asking them to organize and form an effective defense to resist these brutal thieves!

…………

“The show is about to begin! You guys start to copy the route, and when the signal comes, we will become sharp knives, cooperate with the guards, and wipe out these bandits! Gain the favor of the target and lay a good foundation for the Dragon Lord to recruit him!” Tianjiajiu said loudly.

“Yes!” The elite members of the Night Shadow Department responded quickly, and then they were divided into three teams in an orderly manner and rushed to the battlefield ahead!
