Zhao Ning, Ouyang Qian, Dugu Jun, Ye Luxin and other 100 men and horses had just walked for less than half an hour, when the rumbling sound of horses' hooves was heard on the opposite side of the Frozen River, and 1,500 Turkic cavalry rushed to the bank of the Frozen River at a gallop.

The Turkic cavalry were also dumbfounded when they saw this large river steaming hot in the ice and snow without freezing, but when they saw the rafts scattered on the opposite bank of the river and the messy footprints and horseshoe prints that stretched into the distance, they knew that the enemy had cut down trees and formed a raft to cross the river and continue to flee in the direction of the Bohai Sea.

The leader of the Turkic cavalry immediately ordered the Turkic soldiers to also cut down trees to make rafts, and for a while, the Turkic cavalry dismounted one after another, ran to the nearby woods, cut down trees, and were very busy.

More than two hours later, the Turks had already built a hundred rafts, and the leader gave an order, leaving a dozen men to guard the horses, and the remaining more than 1,400 Turkic cavalry took the lead in crossing the river on rafts. The idea of the Turkic leader was very simple, first to cross the people, and then, after asking the people who crossed the river, to send a hundred people to row back the raft to ferry, and then send some people to row back to the opposite bank the more than 30 rafts left by the enemy on the other side to help ferry.

The sky slowly darkened, and the Turkic leaders urged to hurry up and cross the river.

Xia Xue and his party lurked in the dense forest not far from the river, with strong arrows and crossbows, ready to fight. The width of this river is about 60 meters, the dense forest is about 20 meters from the river, and the best killing distance of crossbow arrow attack is generally within 100 meters. Xia Xue tethered the horses to another dense forest far away from the river bank before lurking, and the horses were taken to a distance, giving them a chance to rest as much as possible, and also to prevent them from making a sound and leaking their tracks. Xia Xue ordered before lurking that no one was allowed to shoot and alarm the Turkic cavalry without her order, and everyone made a careful camouflage, quietly hiding in the dense forest, and it was difficult to find an ambush without careful search.

The Turkic cavalry did not believe that only two or three hundred people dared to ambush their fifteen hundred Turkic warriors, so they were not worried that there would be an ambush in the dense forests on the opposite bank. The Turkic cavalry thought that Xia Xue and the others had already fled, so they just seized the time to cross the ice-free river as soon as possible, and then chased after them. They believed that the swift and fierce Turkic horsemen would catch up and slay the daring madmen, cutting off their heads to avenge the death of the Turkic warriors.

A bright moon rises into the sky, and the forest is full of murderous opportunities. The sound of water sounded, and I saw a hundred rafts carrying more than 1,400 Turkic soldiers slowly rowing to the opposite bank.

There was silence all around, the enemy slowly approaching, save only the sound of rushing water and the occasional neighing of horses. Yeluna clenched her fists tightly, her palms were full of sweat, Xia Xue seemed to feel her nervousness, and gently patted her shoulder with her hand, Yeluna raised her head, and saw Xia Xue's unusually calm and firm eyes, her heart suddenly settled down, and she nodded slowly to her. Xia Xue smiled and turned around.

The crowd remained silent and allowed the enemy to draw nearer.

In less than half a cup of tea, the first rafts in front of them were in range, and on each raft there were two people holding the penny to control the direction, but they didn't look very skilled.

It was getting closer and closer, and in a short time, most of the rafts were in the best range. Xia Xue knew that the time had come, and shouted: "Shoot!" ”

She first drew her bow and arrows, and the feather arrows burst out of the air, and the soldiers on one of the rafts immediately let out a heart-rending scream, and fell into the river with the arrows, and the war began in an instant.

The sound of crossbow machines, more than 200 people from the dense forest swished out a round of crossbow arrows, and the powerful arrows flew like locusts towards the unsheltered Turkic cavalry on the raft, the Turkic cavalry could not avoid it, and they were hit by arrows one after another, and the blood stained the raft and the river red.

The Turkic cavalry was so frightened by this sudden attack that they dared to cross the river in such a rash manner because they believed that the enemy had already fled. It's just that they never expected that this group of guys who had eaten the heart of a bear and a leopard's gall, and a mere 200 people, would dare to ambush them in the dense forest on the opposite bank.

The Turkic cavalry was in chaos for a while, but soon heard a loud shout from the Turkic leader, which sounded in everyone's ears like thunder, and in an instant, the originally panicked Turkic soldiers raised their shields and bent their bows and arrows, but the Turkic soldiers were in the light, and Xia Xue's people were in the dark.

Xia Xue praised this Turkic leader, who can be regarded as a good general if he can not be chaotic in the face of danger. She sneered, "Let you try your aunt's killer again!" He waved his hand at the black-clothed guards on the left and right.

"Boom, boom", only to hear a burst of explosions on the surface of the river, the rafts and people of the Turkic soldiers were blown up, screaming, falling into the water one after another, shields and crossbows did not know where they flew.

"Haha!" Zhao Quan, Pan Jiang, and Ouyang Yong suddenly laughed, stood up suddenly, and commanded everyone to shoot arrows with bows, rows of crossbow arrows were shot into the water, and blood gushed out along with the screams. The river was so deep and turbulent that most people were drowned alive after only a few screams.

The raft drifted down the river in a haphazard manner.

The raft that followed behind saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly wanted to retreat, but who knew that the raft behind could not contain the momentum, and slammed into the raft in front.

Seeing this, Xia Xue sneered, and gave the order, and suddenly the flames were blazing, and many small incendiary bombs fell from the sky, and the enemy's nightmare really came at this time.

Incendiary bombs are not afraid of water, and they burn more violently when encountering water. Many rafts began to hunt and burn. The whole water was blazing with fire, and there were screams and wails everywhere, and the Turkic soldiers were immediately in dire straits, unable to advance or retreat. At this time, even if the Turkic leader had three heads and six arms, he was unable to recover from the sky, and more than a dozen surviving rafts hurriedly turned around and wanted to retreat. It's just that this raft is not a boat after all, the sensitivity is very low, plus most of the soldiers who supported the fence have been shot to death, and the river is very wide, if you want to escape, it is difficult to climb to the sky.

Incendiary bombs, hand bombs, strong arrows and crossbows, the enemy fell like weeds in large swaths for a while, and there was a bright red wail on the surface of the river.

Either you die or I die, it has always been an iron law on the battlefield.

After a while, not a single intact raft remained on the river, and at the end, about a hundred or so enemies abandoned the raft and jumped into the river to swim to the opposite bank, but most of the Turks were not accustomed to water, and many were swept away by the rushing river before they could swim to the other side.

In the end, after the remnants of dozens of people climbed ashore exhausted, they rode on their horses and fled northward in despair, and the dozen or so Turkic soldiers who remained on the other side to guard their horses were also frightened when they saw this tragic scene, turned on their horses, and fled in the wilderness.

By this time the war was almost over, and all but a small number of the enemy had fled, and all the rest had died. However, not a single one of them was injured, and with 200 men against 1,500 elite Turkic cavalry, such a record is simply a miracle.

Everyone really admired Xia Xueshen's military command ability, and their admiration for her was like a surging river.

Zhao Ning, Ouyang Qian, Dugu Jun, Ye Luxin and more than 100 people, including 30 black-clothed guards and 70 Khitan warriors, came to a dock in the Bohai Sea with 1,800 Turkic war horses, and found that Sima Chao had been waiting here for two days, Sima Chao took more than 100 big ships and more than 2,000 people, most of which were large cargo ships, and five warships, all of which were large sail hybrid ships equipped with diesel engines and propellers.

According to Xia Xue's request, let Ouyang Qian, Dugu Jun and 1,800 Turkic war horses leave first and go south to the Angel Kingdom.

When everyone was rushing to get on the boat, they encountered difficulties. When the Turkic horses saw the rough sea, they instinctively feared and refused to get on the ship. Moreover, I heard Xia Xue say that the Turkic horse is a northern horse, and it may be seasick when riding a boat. Animals can also get seasick, and Zhao Ning and others can't figure it out.

In fact, Xia Xue knew that all the higher vertebrates on land would suffer from seasickness to some degree. Seasickness, also known as motion sickness, is generally caused by the conflict between visual information and balance organs, rats, horses and other animals may not vomit when they are seasick, but they can feel the nausea and discomfort caused by seasickness. Many horses can be very uncomfortable when they encounter stormy weather at sea. Xia Xue once saw a seasick puppy drooling constantly, and then vomited a mess. It is said that a certain large ship went to sea and encountered very strong wind and waves, and the rats in the cabin could not stand the seasickness and ran to the deck and became paralyzed.

In the end, there was no way, so I had to cover the eyes of the war horse with a cloth according to the method taught by Xia Xue, and finally led the big ship smoothly.

The Khitan warrior Yeluxin and others, who accompanied them all the way, saw that Dugu Jun had been rescued safely, and that Dugu Jun and other queen's friends and war horses had been safely sent on the big ship, and the task had been completed, so they said goodbye to Zhao Ning, Dugu Jun, Ouyang Qian and others and returned to their Khitan tribe.

On the voyage back to the south, Zhao Ning, Dugu Jun, Ouyang Qian and others added wine lees to the forage fed to the war horses according to Xia Xue's method, so that the horses would be slightly drunk and less sensitive to seasickness.

In short, after trying all kinds of methods, I finally transported these precious Turkic war horses safely to the Angel Country War Horse Breeding and Breeding Base, these war horses from the north are mainly used for breeding, because they may not be able to adapt to the hot and humid environment in the south for the time being, and cannot be used in the southern battle. In the angel country, Xia Xue selected the war horse breeding base, are cool climate, suitable temperature, abundant water and grass, vast area of feng shui treasure land, here to raise war horses from all over the country, there are Turkic horses, Mongolian horses, Tuyuhun Qinghai horses, Tibetan plateau horses, Western Regions horses, Arabian horses, Roman horses, etc., I believe that in the near future, will completely solve the dilemma of the shortage of war horses in the south.

The war horse breeding base of the Angel Country is a large grassland with abundant water and grass, and the grassland is in full bloom in spring, with red, yellow, purple and blue flowers full of eyes.

The horse's hooves stepped on the brocade-like field, and the spring breeze still carried the intoxicating fragrance of flowers, and the scenery between heaven and earth was all refreshing. Setting off the blue sky like a wash, faintly floating on the grass tips of the pastoral song, unconsciously, Ouyang Qian and Dugu Jun have been fascinated by it.

The two rode horses for more than an hour on the beautiful grassland of the breeding ground.

Ouyang Qian looked back at Dugu Jun and smiled: "Brother Jun, let's rest for a while." ”

"Good!" Dugu Jun also smiled brightly at Ouyang Qian, revealing his white teeth.

The spring sun bakes people's bodies warmly, which is very comfortable.

Ouyang Qian happily leaned on Dugu Jun's arms, listening to his strong heartbeat.

Dugu Jun gently rubbed his chin against Ouyang Qian's hair and ears.

Ouyang Qian's body, which was stiff in her arms, slowly began to soften, and the trembling feeling was no longer there, replaced by a gentleness like melting ice and snow. Dugu Jun slowly lowered his head, just as he saw Ouyang Qian's big eyes flickering. When the two met their eyes, Ouyang Qian's face immediately turned red, her eyes were tightly closed, and her long eyelashes trembled with the most wonderful rhythm in the world.

She was looking forward to what Dugujun would do to her, but she was so scared in her heart that she was dying. The whole body stiffened, and there seemed to be countless small drums beating in the heart.

Dugu Jun's hand gently landed on Ouyang Qian's face, stroking his eyes, eyelashes, and eyebrows, and slid up his long hair.

Lowering his head slightly, Dugu Jun touched his lips to those eyelashes. No one should teach him, this is his instinctive way of expressing it. Ouyang Qian's body stiffened again, shivering as if the chill had not dissipated, and the breathing in her nostrils was instantly heavy, spraying a wave of heat on Dugu Jun's face.

Dugu Jun raised his head and kissed the delicate lips. Seven points of tension, two points of gentleness, and one point of happiness instantly surged through his body, and his body involuntarily began to tremble. There was a dizziness in my head, but in my closed eyes I saw a thousand rays of sunshine, which was so brilliant that it eclipsed the spring days on the grassland.

I don't know how long it took, Dugu Jun slowly raised his head. Love gives strength! He felt that he had matured in an instant, and he had become extremely strong in an instant, and a sense of responsibility and satisfaction surged throughout his body, as if he could stretch out his hand to hold up the sky above his head. Even if a snowstorm comes suddenly, he can straighten his body and give the person in his arms a windless, snowless, the most peaceful and warm habitat in the world!

"Brother Jun......" Ouyang Qian in her arms screamed dreamily. Maybe it was because of the cold or some other reason, her nostrils seemed to be a little blocked, and her voice sounded with a tail note, haunting and disturbing.

"Hmm!" Dugu Jun replied dreamily. It was as if he had suffered a little cold, and his voice was low and magnetic.

The two horses couldn't stand such a sweet sound and fled into the distance.
