When Huo Qi saw Xie Xiaoman here, Xie Xiaoman was leading the horse.

Leading a horse is a very simple action, so much so that many people will subconsciously ignore this action, but the current situation has made all eyes focus on Xie Xiaoman.

Xie Xiaoman led the horse, Boss Xing didn't carry the burden, he just followed Xie Xiaoman quietly, his expression was quiet after being stimulated by the force.

As for Xie Xiaoman, the reason why she was able to capture the attention of so many people with a simple action of leading a horse was not because of anything else. Rather, it was simply because she was followed by twenty horses.

In the Jin Dynasty, a world where cattle and horses were scarce, such a scene, even if it was produced in the army, was enough to shock.

Huo Qi felt shocked, but he didn't have time to react too much. He had just received a report from the scout boy, and he knew that he was at risk of being attacked by the enemy behind him, and he had also heard about the annihilation of the scout troops.

His face was a little unkind, and at this time he vigorously guided the march of the army, and while letting the large army continue to advance, he also called a few centurions, ready to let their troops stand behind.

"It's a wet job, but you don't have to fight too hard, just let the brothers hold on and run backwards, and pretend to be defeated." Huo Qi commanded in a deep voice, "Listening to the report of the scout, I estimate that the movement of Zhao Jun's attack this time is probably not small, and it may not be only one way." The three of you soldiers fought separately in three ways, and when you hit and ran, you told your brothers that you don't have to love war, and you can't love war. The Chinese army will continue to retreat, so there will be no one to support you and run for your life. It's up to you. ”

"Don't worry, Lord Huo! We know it! ”

These centurions were also veterans in the battalion, and Huo Qi knew the details well, looking at their determined eyes. Huo Qi nodded heavily.

"Brother Xiong's war horse is badly damaged, so let's adjust it from the other teams immediately. Since it is the back of the mat, you must take the best equipment, and you must not lose the steps of your brothers in this! Huo Qi commanded.

"Yes! Thank you, sir! I'm going to ......" The centurion who was called Brother Xiong was clasping his fists at Huo, and just wanted to continue, but he was startled by the scene in front of him, and he was stunned for a while.

Huo Qi was also dizzy by his appearance. Just as he was thinking about looking back to see what had happened, he heard Xie Xiaoman's voice coming from the back of his head.

"How many horses are missing? Are these enough? ”

Huo Qi Huo Ran turned around and saw it. It was Xie Xiaoman who was leading the horse.

Xie Xiaoman, who was leading twenty horses.

The horses were held together by vines that looked indistinguishable from ordinary greenery, and that they would fall apart as soon as they broke free, but they served as reins for tying the horses.

Twenty horses were heavily armed. Saddles, stirrups, bridles. The whole set of things is there, and it even looks like it is still new, and it is faintly a little more sophisticated than the equipment of the Jin army.

By the time of the Wei and Jin dynasties, the productivity of the whole country could not go up, not to mention horses, and even cattle and sheep became very scarce.

Especially after the Rebellion of the Eight Kings and the Yongjia Nandu, the term cavalry almost disappeared from the military system of the Jin army.

Wait until the real cavalry is revived. It is built by relying on Huan Wen's hand.

He spent a lot of effort and relied on Xi Chao's eloquence. This led the imperial court to order the breeding of war horses and the creation of cavalry units. But as with most other engineering projects, although the imperial court verbally agreed, and allocated the money in another official document, the money in the hands was pitiful.

It is hard to imagine what kind of means and energy Huan Wen relied on to finally build such a cavalry of the Western Army.

Even so, war horses are still treasures in the army. It can be said that the money spent on raising a war horse, from breeding to raising, is enough for an ordinary family to eat for ten or eight years. The preciousness of war horses can be seen.

In previous wars, once ten or eight war horses were captured in any battle, it was enough for the generals of the Western Army to be happy for a while. Moreover, the war horses captured in the war are of uneven blood, and many of them are injured and can no longer fight, so they can only be used as stallions.

And this time, Xie Xiaoman actually moved back twenty war horses directly, and each of them was intact, and he didn't even see a wound!

It's no wonder that the centurion was speechless in shock.

Huo Qi looked at the scene behind him and was speechless for a while.

"You didn't answer me, but these are twenty horses, is there enough for you to fill the hole? Why don't I get a few more? Xie Xiaoman looked at their slightly dull eyes, raised his hand and waved it twice in front of Huo Qi's eyes.

Listening to Xie Xiaoman's words later, this time, even Boss Xing, who was following her, couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth.

But think about it, for her Xie Xiaoman, this kind of thing is probably not much different from the difficulty of eating.

"Enough! Absolutely enough! The centurion, who was called Brother Xiong by Huo Qi, rubbed his hands excitedly, and his eyes were shining with golden light, "This girl! You are truly our savior! Where did you get these horses? As long as you can borrow it from us. Tell me where you live, and we'll send the horses back untouched!" ”

Xie Xiaoman smiled when he heard this: "You don't have to return what was given to you." ”

"How is this possible?" Brother Xiong was frightened a lot, this year, even if he asked Emperor Lao Tzu to take out twenty horses, he was afraid that he would hesitate. The girl in front of her, who looks like a girl from an ordinary family, how could she donate her horses directly to the army with such a big spending?

"Master Huo, look at this ......" Brother Xiong didn't know Xie Xiaoman's identity, and he was faintly confused at this time.

"Give it to you, and you'll take it." Huo Qi's face turned a little blue, and his gaze at Xie Xiaoman was very complicated. He pointed at Xie Xiaoman and introduced to several centurions next to him: "This is my own person." Counsellor Xie. ”

For a moment, silent.

Only the sound of the Chinese army speeding forward is whistling in the ears, and the autumn wind is swaying and the reeds are shaking, and they can't blow into the heart.

"Hi. Hello everyone, my name is Xie Xiaoman, you can call me Xiaoman. Xie Xiaoman greeted everyone.

"Thank you...... See Master Xie! The crowd was a little flustered and hurriedly gave the salute.

Behind him, Boss Xing looked at Xie Xiaoman's back with a look of shock.

Xie Xiaoman waved his hand casually, let them get up, and handed the reins holding the horses to Huo Qi's hand: "Don't go quickly, the enemy will catch up in a while." ”

Huo Qi nodded, didn't say anything more, hugged his fist at Xie Xiaoman, and continued to give orders to the general.

Xie Xiaoman looked around, the scout boy had been rescued, and he was being treated not far away at this time, and it seemed that he didn't need his own help.

She was bored for a while, stopped and started to give instructions to arrange the troops, and found that she didn't understand at all, so she simply stopped listening and retreated to the side and waited idly.

The centurions who had been entrusted with the important task of being the rear were listening carefully to Huo Qi's orders at this time, but from time to time, their eyes couldn't help but skim Xie Xiaoman's side a few times, and then immediately withdrew as if they were afraid.

Boss Xing had been following behind Xie Xiaoman, and at this time he carefully looked at this thin girl, how could he not be involved with the official position of "counselor" in the army.

"Counselor or something is a fictitious position, nonsense." As if sensing Boss Xing's gaze, Xie Xiaoman turned his head and stuck out his tongue with a smile at him, "What did you just say your name was?" Xing Ge? ”

"Yes." Xing Ge nodded, "When my mother gave birth to me, the yellow finches outside the window chirped like a song, so she named me Xing Ge." ”

Probably to relieve his too nervous and shocked mood, Xing Ge said a lot.

"It's a slightly tasteful name no matter how it sounds." Xie Xiaoman sighed.

"The family was originally a farming and reading heirloom." Speaking of his past, Xing Ge's voice became deeper and deeper.

He was originally a quiet person, in his early thirties, with a strong and strong body, and was called by a name like "Boss Xing".

Xing Ge is indeed calm enough, so he can simply and neatly take out the knife when facing Xie Xiaoman's back, can take responsibility alone after the knife, and can stand straight in front of Xie Xiaoman when he is obviously afraid to die in his heart.

Xie Xiaoman felt that this person was a little interesting, so he asked his name, and asked him to help tie up the horses and bring them here.

"I'm fine." Xie Xiaoman turned around and looked at the Jin soldiers who were marching again, "But I don't seem to be able to let you go like this now." After all, you know something, and it's a person from Zhao State, if you intercept and kill a soldier of our army, and then go back to report the news, it seems that our army will be damaged. You're right? ”

Xing Ge listened and did not speak.

He had already prepared in his heart, and when he faced Xie Xiaoman's back knife, he was still ready to embrace death.

When he followed Xie Xiaoman to the east, Xing Ge already knew that he would definitely be killed in the end.

Now it seems that the time of death has come.

He was prepared, so he was not surprised or afraid.

It's just that Xing Ge couldn't help but wonder, what kind of method would a person like Xie Xiaoman use to kill himself?

"I'd like to go to the front line in a moment to see if I can help or something. So what should you do? I'm a little worried about leaving you here. Xie Xiaoman said, as if talking to himself.

Xing Ge didn't speak, but just thought to himself, since he was going to kill someone, what were he doing so much. The most reassuring people are naturally the dead.

"Hey, who's ......" Xie Xiaoman suddenly thought of something, walked quickly to the scout boy who had already bandaged his wounds, and said hello, "Hey, what's your name?" ”

"I ...... My name is Zhou Heng. The boy replied subconsciously.

"Zhou Heng, you shouldn't have anything to do now. This big brother's name is Xing Ge, my ...... Friend. I'm going to have something to do, you can help me say hello for a while. Xie Xiaoman squeezed his eyes at Zhou Heng, "Look at him, don't let him run away or anything!" You know! (To be continued......)
