It is not for nothing that Luo Rucai is called Cao Cao, firstly, he is wise, and secondly, he is ruthless!

Just as the feather arrow broke through the air, he didn't know where he got the strength, and he dragged a rider next to him and blocked in front of him.

Even so, the two of them were knocked off their horses by the force of the feather arrows, which could also show how strong Li Guo's arms were.

"Bang!" Luo Rucai and the two fell off their horses, and the rider was shot in the neck and couldn't die anymore, but Luo Rucai was also heavily pressed underneath, not knowing life and death.

Li Guo on the cliff naturally couldn't see it so intuitively, and he couldn't determine Luo Rucai's situation, so he inevitably had some gains and losses, and then he had to go down the mountain to check.

But at this moment, a scout suddenly arrived, and hurriedly reported: "General Tiger, there is a man from the north, there are two thousand people!" ”

Li Guo was a little panicked when he heard this, he came out this time with less than 2,000 people, and no matter how much food he had for the army, it was not enough. But now this sudden appearance of people and centaurs caught him by surprise!

Li Guo hurriedly turned his head to look at Li Yan, hoping that this "Zhuge Liang" could give him an idea.

Li Yan naturally saw Li Guo's anxiety, in fact, he was just as anxious in his heart, but his value as a military advisor was not surprised.

Immediately, Li Yan calmed down and asked the scout: "Does the person who came have a banner?" How many horse teams and infantry crossbowmen were there? ”

The scout is also from the old battalion, and this quality is still there, so he quickly responded: "Report to the deputy military division, I don't understand the banner very well, it doesn't look like Chinese characters, and the small one only knows one battalion with the word "horse".

Half of the horse team is full, and the other half is spears or shields, and there are not many crossbowmen! By the way, there are also a few old men in big black robes, who are particularly eye-catching in front! ”

Li Yan frowned when he heard this, and said to Li Guo: "It should be Huihui, the black-robed beard is their Ah Bao, that is, Hui Monk, these people are all dispatched, it seems that they are going to fight hard!" ”

Li Guo is also a Mizhi person, so naturally he has not seen many people from the Hui Department, and he also knows that these people are no different from the Han people except for chanting scriptures every day, but once they are in a hurry, they will be very united, and they will not die in battle!

Li Guo's face changed: "Luo Cao Cao shouldn't rob the Hui Ministry, right?" And looking at this, I still robbed a lot of times and killed a lot of people, right? ”

Li Yan knew that the army had paid a lot for this ambush, and although he had the upper hand now, it was impossible to end the battle immediately. And the most important thing is that the reason why they came to fight Cao Cao was for his loot!

Li Guo looked at Li Yan and didn't speak, and said directly: "No matter what, we have to bring these things back, King Chuang and his brothers are still waiting for the noodles to be cooked!" ”

Li Yan heard Li Guo say this, and he couldn't say anything else, so he could only think about how to ensure that he would bring the loot back......

When Li Yan and Li Guo were summing up, the ambush battle below had reached a white-hot stage.

The Luo army is actually not as good as the Chuang army, but the food of the Chuang army in the past few days is too poor, and they can't go all out if they can't eat enough! As a result, an ambush with absolute superiority dragged on until now.

Li Laiheng at the mouth of the canyon is a fierce general, but in the face of this situation, he can only lead the team to attack again and again. It's just that he and his men don't know anything yet, and the "Yellow Sparrow" is not far away!

On the other side, ten miles away from the canyon, the leader of the Hui tribe, Lingzhou, commanded Mali to lead the march, but he already felt anxious.

"Father, the scouts found the enemy in the ravine, and it seemed that there was still a fight. This is such a good opportunity, as long as we rush over, we can defeat them in one fell swoop, and we can also save the third sister and the clansmen!

Let me charge with the team, and I promise to take the lead, and I will never embarrass you and your mentors! A young man in white said eagerly.

Mari looked at his son, but did not answer him, but turned to look at the bearded man in a black robe next to him, trying to ask for his opinion.

The bearded man on the donkey shook his head with the book in his hand in his arms, and said, "The prophet said that if two wild beasts are in everyone, the wise man must wait for them to finish fighting, so that he can get two prey!" ”

After listening to this, Mali looked like he had been taught, and then he said to his son Mark: "Son, you should listen more to the words of the teacher, these are the wisdom taught by the prophets, which are more useful than the books of the sages of the Han people." ”

Mark's face darkened when he heard this, but he slowly recovered, he was taken to the provincial capital to be a "schoolboy" at a very young age, and he learned the Four Books and the Five Classics.

Although this can't change his identity as a boy in the Hui Ministry, everything also makes him have a lot of identification with Confucianism, if it weren't for his lack of Confucianism, he would even want to take the martial arts exam!

And his father and mentor were apparently typical indigenous Hui people, who revered the strong man, the Han emperor, but at the same time always insisted on the absolute oneness of the true God.

However, Confucianism emphasizes not to disobey his parents, so Mark still resisted the impulse and retreated to his position without saying a word.

Mali couldn't help but nod when she saw this scene, and her mood was much better because her eldest son was missing and her daughter was kidnapped.

At this time, the mentor saluted again and stepped forward and said, "Actually, there is nothing wrong with Mark's idea, although we can't press it directly.

But you can go a little further and stimulate them and make them bite harder! ”

When Mali heard this, he also felt that it made sense, so he said to Mark as if compensating: "In this way, you come to be the vanguard, and continue to advance with the vanguard, and we will slowly follow, just to confuse the enemy!" ”

When Mark heard this, he could only do this, after all, he was more active than just now, and then he arched his hand and said, "Obey the father!" ”

Immediately, Mark led more than 150 vanguard cavalry towards the canyon, and a cloud of smoke and dust kicked up, which was enough to see how anxious he was.

And Mari, who was still marching slowly, shook his head and said to himself: "It's too reckless, it's not like his big brother at all!" ”

The tutor next to him didn't look at the old dragon clock, his hearing was not good, and he interjected directly: "Mark is still young, he can continue to teach." However, you have to think about it, now Daqin also wants hostages.

Can you send Mark over or not, he's your only son now, in case something happens......"

The old man said very implicitly, but Mali had already understood, and it turned out that one of his two sons was by his side, and it was actually very reasonable for the other to be a hostage.

Mali is not worried about what Da Ming will do to his son, because he knows that he has two catties, and he does not dare to rebel at all, and now these two thousand people are made up by several tribes.

But now the situation is different, firstly, he has only one son, and secondly, this Daqin's style of acting is completely different from that of Daming.

Da Ming cares more about reputation and stability, but Da Qin seems to have unlimited ambitions, and the news that Mamat brought back said:

Great Qin perished and looked at Han, he defeated Wei, and now he is still sharpening his sword, constantly looking for the next target!

Although Huibu is a feudal domain in the frontier, he is a toast at best, but he doesn't want to lose his last independence at all, so it is his bottom line that he can't be changed to return to the stream.

Fortunately, Mali is the leader of the year after all, no matter what his ability is, at least he knows how to advance and retreat, so he has long been prepared that even if he is stuck by Daqin, as long as he does not touch the bottom line, he will never make trouble.

Immediately, Mali said to his mentor: "Let's wait and see what happens, after all, Daqin is still the most powerful force around, and the rogues in the west have invaded many times, and we still have to rely on Daqin."

As for the hostages...... If Da Qin didn't take the initiative to procrastinate, we dragged it out, and if it didn't work, we could only let Mark go, no matter what, the Hui Department couldn't be a leader in opposing Da Qin! ”

The old man also understood Mali's mind when he heard it, and at the same time knew that this was a last resort, and his heart was naturally for the benefit of the Hui Ministry, so he reluctantly agreed with this answer.

Just when the two were about to continue to talk about some details, the scout in front suddenly returned and hurriedly shouted: "Chief, the second son is surrounded by rogues, and the situation is critical!" ”

Mali was also furious when he heard it, Mark is now his only son! He couldn't take it anymore, and immediately drew his sword and roared:

"The little praying mantis still dares to bite us sparrows! Boys back to the department! Come with me to save people and avenge the fallen brethren! Really sane! ”

"Revenge! Greatest! ”
