…… The firmament is vast and the wilderness is vast, the white clouds are long and the green grass is miserable, the morning breeze and morning dew, and in the gradual greening, a group of people and horses closely follow the two pennant flags of one green and one blue, and gallop downstream along the meandering Alegu River.

Shang Cheng was not on the team. He was standing on the river bank with his war horse, watching the advance of the team while carefully listening to the soldiers sent back by Zhao Shi to report the latest situation ahead.

The soldier was sweating all over the horse with men, but he didn't even bother to wipe it, he grabbed the reins with both hands and gasped on the horse's back and said, "...... My lord, the hussars have gone west. As he spoke, he looked up at the red sun, as if he was identifying the direction, and then stretched out his hand to the southwest and pointed. The horseshoe prints and the bloodstains of the corpses were pointing that way. ”

"How many hussars are left? How far is it going? ”

"I don't know. I don't know how many roads away from us. There are rangers of the Tuqi people on the old road, and they can't get through. The haggard-faced sentry took the water bladder handed by Bao Kan and took several sips with his neck tilted. Because he drank too quickly, the sentry didn't change his breath, half of the sip of water squirted out, and he coughed empty on the horse's back.

"You've got the enemy in hand?"

The soldier suppressed his cough and wiped the clear water from the corner of his mouth before straightening up and then said, "I didn't take over." Zhao Whistle,...... Zhao Whistle led people around in circles, saying that he wanted to get close to investigate. Order me, order me to come back first and report it, and the brigade must quickly change direction. ”

Shang Cheng ordered the team to turn to the southwest, and ordered people to pass the word and let Sun Zhongshan Wen Mu come over, but he stared at the reckless southwest without saying a word. The six hundred hussars could not resist the two thousand sudden soldiers, so they could only fight and retreat, which he had already thought of. The enemy's blockade of the Alaku River, hoping to annihilate the entire army of the Left Route Army on the left bank, did not surprise him, and the reason why he asked people to collect as many horses, camels and food as possible was to prepare for an unsuccessful breakthrough of the Alegu River. If he is unable to break out of the enemy's encirclement, he will have to go north deep into the heart of the Turgitz and wait for the enemy to get rid of the enemy before making plans, or he will either attack the enemy's lair or cross the river from the upper Alegu to the army in the center...... But these are all later words, there is no need to seriously consider it at the moment, the most important thing at present is that Chen Zhuguo can't make any mistakes, Chi Yiyi, this woman must not fall into the hands of the Tu Yi people! Although he didn't know this woman who regarded being a soldier and fighting as a child's play, and he didn't care why this woman didn't stay in the palace and wanted to run to the battlefield, he couldn't ignore her safety......

Wen Mu and Sun Zhongshan rushed over from the back of the line. Neither of them got off the horse, so they gave a military salute on the back of the horse, and Wen Mu asked, "My lord, do you pass us?" ”

Shang Chengchao Wen Mu nodded slightly, but asked Sun Zhongshan: "How is the team organized?" ”

"Tell your lord, it's been put in order! Bingyong was divided into a total of eight sentinels, five sentinels guards, one outpost border army, and two sentinels of the people. Temporary officers at the posts were also appointed. ”

Shang Cheng sighed and said, "The specific situation of the hussars is not clear, but they are retreating to the southwest. The outposts within ten miles of the north and south sides did not find a large force of enemy activity, and there were four or five hundred cavalry of the Turks ten miles to the west. Captain Wen, after you take one sentry guard and two sentry people, you will contain the stragglers and horses along the way, and I will take the remaining five sentries to take the other five sentries first. ”

Wen Mu hesitated, hesitated for a moment before giving a military salute with a red face, and replied: "...... Be. ”

"That's it. If there is any situation one by one, we will contact us at any time. ”

With Shang Cheng's shout, more than 600 Zhao soldiers poured out in the southwest direction like a rapidly surging undercurrent. Because Zhao Shishi, who was in front of the reconnaissance and probe, sent back news one after another to guide the road, the team almost did not pause for a moment on the way, and even a group of hundreds of camels and horses that met on the narrow road did not pay attention to it, and rushed through. Kankan ran out and ran out for more than ten miles, Shang Cheng had just ordered to move slowly to save horsepower, and there was news in front of him that the hussars were surrounded under a slope three miles away, and they were fighting to the death!

"How many enemies are there?"

"About two thousand!"

"How many big tent soldiers are there?"

"I can't see clearly! One by one, two black flags of the big tent soldiers are there! ”

The corners of Shang Cheng's mouth grinned one hundred and six hundred against two thousand, this bone is not easy to gnaw! He thought about it, called Sun Zhongshan, and said hurriedly: "You take two sentinels and go around from the north to fight!" "Yes!" Sun Zhongshan turned his head and led the two sentinels to the north. Shang Cheng put the scimitar across the saddle, reached out and lifted the blindfold, blinked his right eye, which was swollen with red eyelids and tears, and asked Bao Kan beside him: "Old Bao, do you think we can win this time?" ”

Bao Kan carried a spear in his hand and said with a smile: "You also have times when you are timid? ”

"It's a human being who is scared, and I certainly can't be an exception."

"And what are you most afraid of?"

"CET-4. What I fear the most is CET-4. I almost couldn't finish my job because of this......"

"The Eagle Fish Quadrupole?" Bao Kan obviously hadn't heard of this new term, twisted his brows and repeated it several times, turned his face to look at Shang Cheng, who was in a trance, and asked, "What is that?" ”

The faintly audible shouts and fighting sounds in front of him woke Shang Cheng up from his momentary distraction. He squinted his eyes at his friend and smiled, "You want to know?" Seeing Bao Kan nod vigorously, he grinned. I'll never tell you what CET4 is......

Under a grassy slope three miles away, more than 200 hussars were forming two circles inside and outside, desperately blocking the outlying assault soldiers. The place here is small, the cavalry can't move away at all, the enemy and us are huddled together, all riding war horses to fight, thousands of horses' hooves trampling around, stirring up the ground to break grass and dust, more than half a person high. In the desert, there are dark shadows, knives and guns come and go, weapons are stirring, screams and shouts, a rain of blood suddenly disappears, the heads that were cut off are kicked by the horses' hooves and roll everywhere on the grass, from time to time the horses in the crowd of horses neigh, curl up their front hooves and stand up how high they are, and the knights who fell from the horses were trampled on the tendons and broken bones in an instant......

Wang Yi rode a horse, carrying a long sword, and stood in the middle of the circle surrounded by Zhao Jun, pursing his thin lips tightly, and staring at the melee in front of him without blinking. Now the Duke of Yiguo of Great Zhao, the general Mingwei of the imperial court, and the marching chief of the hussar army have completely lost the graceful demeanor and calm bearing when he talked to Wen Mu the night before. His four-winged skull had long since disappeared, his unkempt face looked haggard, a few strands of hair hanging down from the sideburns of his forehead, and a few dried blood stains behind his ears crawled into the collar of his battle jacket; The general's armor made by Seiko lacks the east and west, and the white cotton lining with nail leaves is exposed in many places. His waist was still wrapped in a raw cloth, and the bandages were soaked in large blobs of black blood. As the tide of battle changed, he occasionally turned his body on horseback, and at this time there was always a look of pain on his face. It seems that his injuries are not light.

He and the three officers behind him tightly guarded one man and one horse in their midst. The gold-pinched three-clawed cloud dragon float and the double mink tail on the six-winged hood, as well as the red robe and the armor, leg guards and leather boots that you can know at a glance that they are not ordinary objects, and the embossed red dragon scabbard hanging on the side of the leg, are enough to show that this person's identity is extraordinary. In fact, this person's identity is indeed noble, she is the fourth daughter of the current Emperor Zhao Dongyuan Chen Pu, in addition to the title of Princess Changsha, she also has a series of prominent titles and positions, the general of the Zhuguo of the Great Zhao, the squire of the military department, the deputy head of the Gyeonggi camp, the deputy commander of the Liyuan camp, the military counselor of the Yanshan camp, and the counselor of the left army of the Yanshan camp......

As time passed, the number of hussars who were surrounded by several times the enemy became smaller and smaller, and the soldiers of Tu Duci seemed to be crazy, one by one, shirtless, roaring in the grassland dialect that the Zhao people could not understand, shouting and screaming, raising the scimitar, spear, axe, iron slash, stabbing and smashing, knocking off one Zhao soldier after another.

Seeing that the situation was extremely critical, Wang Yi was already so nervous that he was sweating all over, and large pieces of sweat flowed down the bridge of his nose and cheeks, and he grabbed the hilt of his sword and said without looking back: "General, we can't hold it here, we will protect you and rush south!" Your horses are fast, they can't catch up. Don't look back when you go out, follow the river all the way south. There is our military village in Shuangmatan a hundred miles to the south, so you will be safe there. ”

Chen Pu didn't seem to hear Wang Yi's words, but just sat on the horse's back, his eyes staring straight to the south, as if he was looking for something. After a night of fierce battle, her face was also dusty, but there was no panicked look between her eyebrows, but there was a dignified and serene look, as if she was turning a blind eye to the fierce battle in front of her...... She slowly closed her eyes, as if listening to something quietly, and then gently drew her sword, brushing it off her neck......

"Princess!" One of the officers beside her had been watching her every move, and when he saw her pull out her long sword and kill herself, he dragged her arm. "Princess! No! ”

"Get out of here!" Chen Pu got rid of the officer. But she was immediately hugged tightly by another officer, and the man next to her grabbed the sword from her hand.

The first officer had already rolled to the ground, took a step forward and hugged her leg, and cried with tears in his eyes: "Princess, ten million...... Don't do that! We've surrounded you and rushed out, and we'll be able to get out......"

Chen Pu smiled miserably: "Fool, what can you do if you rush out?" There are soldiers everywhere, I ......" her expression suddenly became gloomy, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I can't die at the hands of the Turts!" Give me the sword! Give me! ”

The officer with the sword was startled by her loud shout, and in a dazed and panicked manner, he involuntarily handed the sword over.

This time, no one came to stop her. She slowly wiped Qiu Hong's sword-like sword with a white silk, and muttered in her mouth, as if she was talking to the sword. With tears in their eyes, the three officers silently turned their backs. They also clenched their swords tightly.

"General Wang." Chen Pu looked at the Tu Qi people who were about to break through the defense line of Zhao Bing and rush into the circle, and suddenly whispered, "I want to ask General Wang for one thing......

"I'm here." Wang Yitou didn't answer, "Please give the general's military order!" ”

"When I die, you must cut off my head and bring it back." Chen Pu put his sword across his neck, "If you can't go back, please take my head ...... Mince. ”

“…… Be! ”

"Thank you, General."

Wang Yi pursed his lips and did not speak.

Behind the grassy slope to the east came a sudden sound of a trumpet.

"Woo one woo one "

The same trumpet and long sound of the trumpet and the answer of the ......
