A little month ago, in the desert of northern Xinjiang, Huo Qubing led 800 cavalry to run rampant in the desert, destroying two tribes in a row.

The head of the Hu patriarch had already been nitrated and hung on the back of Huo Quai's horse. And the soldiers under Huo Quai's hands also have a bag on their horses, which is the left ear of the Hu people, the head is too occupied, and cutting off the left ear can also record military exploits.

It was early summer, the glaciers in the north melted, the big river was surging, rolling in, the grass and trees on both sides were dense, there were many small beasts, it was a good place to graze.

"Dismount!"

Huo Qubing beckoned everyone to dismount, and the cavalry took out the water bladder and went to the river to fill the water bladder, and a personal guard handed the water bladder full of water to Huo Quai, Huo Qubing took it directly and drank the river water in a big gulp.

"Happy, happy!"

Huo Qu screamed heartily.

"Broken slave, what's the name of this river?"

Huo Quzhi asked, pointing to the river.

Zhao Ponu looked at it, the river stretched for several miles and disappeared, and said: "This river is caused by the melting of glaciers, and there are countless such rivers on the grassland in summer, and the general really doesn't know the name of this river." ”

"Then Ben will give this great river a name!"

Huo Qu was sick and jumped out of his life, and when he heard that the river had no name, he immediately said to the generals excitedly: "A certain general has 800 soldiers, galloping day and night, exterminating four Hu tribes, beheading more than 4,000 people, and then it is the time when we wave our army to the north and go straight to the court of Beihu Wang." Therefore, this river will be named Zhuhu River! ”

After the soldiers filled the water bladder, Huo Qubing did not stay, and continued to lead 800 hussars north to attack the Hu people's court.

"General, there is a tribe of Hu people not far ahead! But the group of Hu people has already discovered us, and we will see several Hu people's whistle riders in the end! ”

Zhang Cigong hurriedly reported the news of his investigation to Huo Quai.

"How many people are there in that tribe?" Huo Quzhi was not flustered, his eyes flashed with excitement, and he couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to fight.

"Judging by the number of tents, it should be a medium-sized tribe of thousands of people, and there are at least two thousand young people who can fight!"

"Good! When the soldiers get on the horse, let you and others follow me to make contributions and raise the prestige of the Han! ”

Huo Quzhi raised the spear in his hand, shouted to the eight hundred soldiers behind him, and then rode his horse and drove straight forward.

"Whew!"

The eight hundred hussar soldiers kept shouting in their mouths, showed the blades in their hands, slapped the horse's buttocks fiercely, and followed behind Huo Quai, the eight hundred cavalry had already been very familiar with Huo Quai's run-in, but in a moment they formed a conical array, and the sharp sword at the front of the conical array was to control the shadow horse, carrying a steel gun, and Huo Quai, who was just eighteen years old.

At this time, a long time had passed since Hu Lu discovered Huo Quai's illness and organized the warriors of the tribe, and the head of the tribe had only formed more than 1,000 people.

The grassland is vast, and the transmission of a thing is extremely slow, and even to the back, the meaning of the content of the matter is already diametrically opposed to the original text.

So until now, the news of King Ott's defeat has not been transmitted, it is possible that the Beihu Royal Court has already known about it, but the medium-sized tribe in front of Huo Qubing obviously did not know the news.

Perhaps the Beihu royal court concealed this matter.

Moreover, the head of the tribe was quite disdainful of the Zhou cavalry in front of him, only the Hu people invaded the territory of the Zhou people, how could the Zhou people be presumptuous on the grassland.

It's just that the leader of the Hu people is quite curious about why the Zhou cavalry can appear here, and in his cognition, his tribe seems to be very far away from the Great Zhou.

"Patriarch, let me go and destroy these Zhou dogs, let them understand that the grassland is our territory, but they can't come if they want to!"

"Good! Ashley, you will lead our 1,000 warriors to annihilate these Zhou dogs, and the wolf god will bless you! The tribal leader solemnly placed his palm on the door of Ashli's head, which was the most sacred blessing in their clan.

Ashley raised his head and closed his eyes, touched his chest with his hand, knelt on one knee, and promised the leader: "Ashli will definitely return the head of the dog Zhou, and the wolf god will bless him." ”

"Whoa, whoa!"

A thousand hussars let out a piercing roar, the horses neighed, the horses' hooves roared, and a thousand hussars and eight hundred hussars galloped head-on, getting closer and closer.

Huo Quzhi had no fear, rode his horse and charged, and a silver light flashed from the steel gun in his hand, "Poof! The sound was directly stabbed into the big mouth of a Hu man who was still shouting, and it went diagonally upwards and directly penetrated the door of the brain.

Hu Ren just relied on his momentum to rush around, although he had some advantage in numbers, he was vulnerable in Huo Quai's tight formation.

"Medium!"

Zhang Cigong clamped the horse's belly tightly with his legs, set up a bow, aimed, and shot arrows, and in one go, an arrow quickly flew out, shooting a Hu man off the horse.

Zhao Ponu also held a big knife and split a Hu man into two pieces.

Li Xi and Lu Bode were not as wild as Zhao Ponu, but their spears were like rainbows, piercing armor and flesh, stabbing a famous Hu man under his horse.

Gongsun He and Gongsun Ao also kept wielding their blades, slaughtering Hu Lu, blood splattered on their faces, and Gongsun He stretched out his tongue and licked the bright red on his face.

"Phew! It's fishy! ”

Gongsun Ao spat out the blood and scolded with disdain.

And the Hu people were naturally unwilling to sit still, they shouted one after another, and slashed the blades in their hands towards the Han army beside them, and from time to time one or two Han knights fell off their horses.

But the Hu people's resistance was ultimately in vain, but after a few breaths, the eight hundred Han hussars directly carved the Hu people's military formation into a counterpart.

And the warrior of the Hu people, Ashili, was also stabbed to death by Huo Quai.

Huo Qubing took the lead and rushed directly into the camp of the Hu people, using the gun as a stick, and knocked the tribal leader unconscious on the ground, followed by eight hundred hussars, looting and killing in the Hu tribe, for them, the Hu people are the enemies who invaded their hometown, and they are mortal enemies, of course, there is no possibility of keeping their hands, whether it is young and strong or women, children, old and young, all of them are stabbed.

However, everyone didn't find much of the old man, I'm afraid he was expelled from the tribe by the Hu people in the heavy snowstorm, and he was left to fend for himself!

Huo Quzhi carried the fainted tribal leader in his hand and walked to a big tent, there was a little lamb in the barbecue in the tent, the tent was full of aroma, Huo Quzhi directly threw the tribal leader to the ground, and cut off a piece of mutton with a knife and chewed it vigorously in his mouth, which was very chewy.

After a while, several generals also entered the tent one after another, sat around the roasted whole sheep, and waited until the tribal leader woke up leisurely, and saw the scene in front of him.

Huo Quzhi waved his hand, Zhao Ponu threw the tribal leader in front of Huo Quzhi, Huo Quzhi looked at the tribal leader's fierce eyes, and smiled disdainfully.

Said to Zhao Ponu: "Ask General Ben how far this place is from the Hu Ren King's Tent?" If he said it, General Ben would give him a painful one, and if he didn't say it, General Ben would cut off his head and stick a bamboo pole into the ground, so that he would never be able to turn over! ”

The Hu people believed in the wolf god, and they believed that if the head and body were separated, even after death, they could not return to the arms of the wolf god, but would float outside like a lonely ghost, and if the bamboo pole lifted the head and stuck it into the ground, then the soul would be imprisoned there forever, and would suffer endless pain and suffering.

Therefore, when the tribal leader heard Zhao Ponu's translation, he trembled like chaff, and his eyes had long been free of anger and hatred, but fear and fear.

If you can't return to the embrace of the wolf god, it will be more painful than death.

The leader of the Hu people replied: "Zhou people, you have come to the wrong place, the king's tent is not here, but in the direction of the setting sun, far, far away from here... He said he didn't know the exact location. ”

Everyone looked at each other, Huo Quzhi scratched his head, and said to himself: "Are we going in the wrong direction?" ”

Zhao Ponu said angrily: "Impossible, I remember clearly, this is the direction, this Hu Lu must be lying to us and letting a certain knife kill him!" ”

After saying that, he put the blade on the neck of the Hu people, and the Hu people were trembling, and they didn't understand anything at all, but kept kowtowing, and kept muttering something in their mouths.

"What is he talking about?"

Huo Quzhi asked.

"He said again, he had told him everything he knew, and hoped that his head would not be cut off and that he would be allowed to swallow gold and die." Gongsun He, who also understands Hu, said.

"Bullshit!"

Zhao Ponu scolded and said to Hu Lu in Hu Yu for a long time.

Gongsun He explained to everyone: "Lao Zhao is asking, why did he deceive us when the king's tent was obviously here, if he didn't tell the truth, not only would he cut off his head, but also feed his body to the dogs..."

The leader of the Hu people waved his hand vigorously and said a lot of words.

Zhao Ponu's eyes widened, obviously stunned.

Gongsun He also put down the mutton that was supposed to be put in his mouth, looked at the puzzled eyes of Huo Quzhi and others, and hurriedly translated: "This Hu Lu said that the king tent was originally in this direction, but because of the snow disaster over the years, in order to facilitate the invasion of the Zhou Dynasty and to resist the Qiang people, the Hu Great Khan moved the royal tent to the west, and the royal tent in Lao Zhao's memory was a few years ago!" ”

"I see!"

The crowd will be stunned.

"Now we're going in the wrong direction, General, what are we going to do next?"

Li Xi, who was quite steady, asked Huo Quai.

Gongsun Ao said at this time: "Now we are looking in the wrong direction, if we continue to look for the western area, if there is no guide, it will definitely be easy to lose our way and lose our way on the grassland, then our eight hundred people may not be able to go back!" ”

Although Huo Qubing was radical, he also knew that he had to be fully prepared before he could go deep into the grassland, and this time taking advantage of the defeat of the Hu people, the most important thing in the sneak attack on the Hu people's royal tent was that Zhao Ponu knew the approximate location of the royal tent, so Huo Qubing had the confidence to take down the head of the Hu people's khan.

But what surprised Huo Qubing was the fact that the Hu people's royal tent was taken away, and the small tribes didn't know where the royal tent was, so they could only look for medium-sized tribes, or larger tribes.

But looking around aimlessly, it's easy to lose your bearings.

Huo Quzhi nodded, stood up and said to everyone: "Gongsun Duwei is right, we don't know what the situation is in the west, we must ask the location of the Hu people's royal tent from some Hu nobles before we can act, my uncle has also instructed us to be careful of getting lost in the grassland, in this case, we can only return the same way, and wait until the next time the time is ripe, in the desert!" ”

It was very difficult for Huo Quzhi to make this decision, his goal was the Great Khan of Beihu, to celebrate Liu Defeng, but unfortunately...

"Clean up this tribe, rest for a day, and return to Xiji tomorrow."

Huo Qubing instructed the generals.

"Yes!"

The generals hurriedly shouted.

After that, the generals followed Huo Qu out of the big tent.

Zhao Ponu looked at the leader of the Hu tribe who was still kowtowing, and cut off the leader's head with a knife, the head and body were separated, and blood flowed everywhere.

Zhao Ponu wiped the blood off the knife, inserted the knife into the scabbard, and strode out of the tent, following in the footsteps of Shanghuo Quai.

......

West set.

Wei Qing sat alone on the top of the main hall, wiping the sword in his hand, but he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.

"Governor, your family has arrived!"

Wei Qing woke up, sighed secretly, put the sword aside, got up and said, "I'll go over now!" ”

Wei Qing was full of worries in his heart, it had nothing to do with his family, but another matter.

Wei Qing was named a captain by Liu De because of the surprise attack on Xiji and the credit of rejecting 20,000 Hu people from the city, although he was directly promoted from Bai to Captain, which was a bit unruly, but Bai Qi's credit was not small, although the generals were surprised, but there were not too many doubts.

But Liu De named Wei Qing as the right deputy governor, which made the generals uproar and questioned.

Although the governor is not an official position, and as soon as Liu De appointed the governor, he appointed a lot of them, which also devalued the position of governor, but in any case, this is a symbol of status and a manifestation of status.

The Great Zhou Dynasty respected the left, Yang Ye was the deputy governor of the left, unexpectedly, and in the reasonable, Yang Ye repeatedly made meritorious contributions, and took seven sons to fight with Liu De everywhere, and there was the merit of guarding Yun County, the whole army was crowned by force, and he was quite kind to the soldiers, and his qualifications were second only to Wei Chi Gong in the Bai Qi army, so he was named the deputy governor of the past.

Well, speaking of which, an important figure was introduced, that is, Wei Chigong.

Since Qin Qiong was dissatisfied with Bai Qi's slaughter of the Beiyuan troops for no reason, had a dispute with Bai Qi, and was transferred by Liu De, the only general under Bai Qi's command was Wei Chi Gong, Wei Chi Gong's martial arts are amazing, brave in battle, repeatedly made great contributions, and has strong qualifications.

But in the end, the left and right deputy governors didn't occupy it, so that a white body who didn't know who it was suddenly airborne and squeezed out Wei Chigong, how could this convince the generals.

Of course, Wei Chigong was also dissatisfied in his heart, of course, this dissatisfaction must not be aimed at Liu De, and Wei Qing deserved to obtain Wei Chigong's dissatisfaction.

Wei Qing was also puzzled, and didn't know why he suddenly promoted himself to the right deputy governor...

Could it really be that the lord loves the house and Wu because he likes to go to the sick, and he has a preference for himself?

Wei Qing can only think of this...

"Brother..."

A call interrupted Wei Qing, who was thinking.

Wei Qing raised his head and looked at his smiling sister, Wei Qing also felt that all his troubles were removed at once.

......
