King Loulan is now middle-aged, it is said that it is the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, and his energy should be very strong in all aspects, but these days, King Loulan does feel unprecedented fatigue, and there seems to be a weight in the exhaustion that he can't cope with.

Loulan has never encountered the complicated situation these days. Loulan is small, there are few people in the country, and there are few people, and the king of Loulan was originally very comfortable, but since the Huns and the Han jumped from far away to close in front of him, King Loulan felt that his good life seemed to have come to an end.

Especially today, when the king of Loulan learned that the Xiongnu Shan Yu Yizhi and the general of the Han Dynasty had a confrontation in a wine shop in the mud city, and there was a possibility of a fight at any time, one of the heads of the king of Loulan suddenly became as big as a sky full of stars.

Until now, the king of Loulan still can't figure out when Yi Zhixian arrived in the mud city, and why he didn't receive the report before. Of course, King Loulan would never have thought that Yi Zhixian would disguise himself as Zhao Xin's entourage because of a princess who was already a captive of the Han Dynasty.

Today's air was a little gloomy, and the sky of the entire Mud City was a little oppressive, especially when the King of Loulan faced the heavy cavalry of the five hundred hussars outside the wine shop, a pressure that he had never felt before enveloped him. This feeling of depression made King Loulan feel uncomfortable, and a wave of discomfort surged from the bottom of his heart.

The 500 heavy horsemen were originally stationed outside the city. Originally, Qin Cheng came with these five hundred heavy horses, and he wouldn't say much if he really wanted to enter the city and station King Loulan at the beginning, but the heavy horses were originally camped outside the city, but now they rashly broke into the city and didn't give him face at all, which made King Loulan's face feel hot.

"General, get out of the way, my king wants to enter the store!" It was not the first time that the head of the guard of the King of Loulan had said this to Qin Qingzhi, but Qin Qingzhi's answer was always only one: "Without the order of the general, the hussars dare not leave their posts without permission." ”

A very polite sentence trampled on the hope of King Loulan to enter the store.

King Loulan looked at the young but heroic Han general, and his heart was filled with anger. He glanced at his own guard commander in front of him, and the anger in his heart increased. Qin Qingzhi's toughness certainly made King Loulan angry, but if his own guard commander dared to lead people to directly attack Qin Qingzhi's military formation, would he still blame him?

It is inconvenient for him to order the army to clash with the Han army, but his subordinates have done impulsive things in order to maintain the dignity of a king, although he will condemn him in front of people, will he not be rewarded heavily in private, and he will rise in the light and in the dark?

The stupidity or cowardice of the guard commander made King Loulan angry and ashamed. This ruler with a prominent position in the Loulan Kingdom did not know that his behavior today had made him no longer have the possibility of being a nobleman in the future.

The Loulan sergeants outside the hussar army gathered more and more, and the number was already several times that of the hussars, but in front of the hussars' heavy armor and heavy swords, no one dared to step forward to provoke their soldiers.

The longer the time dragged on, the more ugly King Loulan's face became, and the more his dignity was trampled on. For a while, King Loulan suddenly remembered the general Loulan who died in battle some time ago. King Loulan thought in his heart that if the general was still there, he would definitely not let his face be so embarrassed at this time.

This Loulan Country and this Mud City, who has the final say?

In an instant, the king of Loulan almost couldn't bear it, and forced the army to attack the too arrogant hussars.

Sikochafu squeezed out of the hussar formation, and as the confrontation between the two sides progressed, no one restricted him from running to the side of the king of Loulan.

In front of King Loulan, the small runway of the Xike teaman, he made a solemn salute, solemnly shouted "I have seen my king", after shouting, the Xike teaman turned around, facing the hussars in front of him who had fought side by side with him, and angrily reprimanded: "This is Loulan Kingdom, it is Loulan King City, my king wants to enter the store, who dares to stop it?!" ”

Qin Qingzhi, who was immediately dressed in heavy armor, glanced at Xike Teaman and did not say a word. But his expression told Xike Chafu: There is no King Loulan in Lao Tzu's eyes, only the general! Lao Tzu is blocked, what can you do?

The young Xike teaman didn't seem to have any intention that he would be able to suppress Qin Qingzhi and the five hundred hussars with a word, he raised his hand to Qin Qingzhi, and shouted with righteous words: "Those who dare to challenge the dignity of my king will be killed, killed, forgiven!" ”

After that, he said loudly to the Loulan army behind him: "The army listens to the order and prepares to charge!" ”

After shouting a sentence, Xike Teaman's eyes were fixed on the commander of the guards of King Loulan, and the meaning could not be more obvious, that is, let him take the lead.

After all, the commander of the guards was not too stupid, and at this time he also reacted, if he didn't do anything again, King Loulan's face would be gone, and his wealth might be gone, so he decisively drew his sword, pointed at the hussars, and shouted: "Dare to despise my king, die!" ”

The commander of the guards, of course, is no better than Sikoteaman, he has real power. As soon as he spoke, the palace guards drew their long swords and began to stare at the hussars.

Not only the palace guards did the same, but the other Loulan sergeants followed suit.

Many things just lack the touch of a breakthrough node, and many people need someone to drive them to do things.

King Loulan, who was sitting in the king's chase, seemed to be extremely straight at this time, and his eyes seemed to be extraordinarily bright.

To see a general, you only need to look at the sergeants he trained, and similarly, to see a king, you only need to look at the people under his rule. Driven by the Xike teaman, the Loulan army gave face so much, and the king of Loulan also felt that his face was full of brilliance.

After all, there are still people who are willing to stand up for their dignity.

King Loulan glanced at the Xike teaman. Just this glance has already doomed Xike Chafu to no longer be comparable to today's status in the future. In contrast, King Loulan felt more and more that the guards were hateful and unbearable, and he had led the guards for many years, and he even needed a civilian boy who didn't know how to draw a knife to remind him.

But Xike Chafu risked being beheaded by Qin Qingyi, did it do this for the dignity of King Loulan, or for his own glory?

It doesn't really matter.

The sound of the sword drawn was like a strange music, announcing the imminent outbreak of a great war, if the hussars remained uncompromising.

.....................................................

Zhao Xin came back to Mud City this time, because he couldn't take the safety of the mission lightly because he was accompanied by Yi Zhixian, although Yi Zhixian hid his identity. Yi Zhixian can't have the slightest accident, the slightest carelessness is a catastrophe for the Huns, and no one has the courage to be lazy at this time. When Yi Zhixian arrived at this not very brilliant wine shop today, in addition to the people brought by Zhao Xin, there were still nearly fifty people left in their place of stay.

A group of nearly 100 people, although they dress differently, they are actually masters, and when necessary, they can at least risk their lives. Yi Zhi came out to see Yi Xue'er, he didn't think there would be any risk, and there was no big waste. Rao is like this, and Zhao Xin also brought about fifty people. Some emptied the liquor store and played the role of a drinker in the liquor store. Others stay outside the liquor store, wandering the streets or sitting in the restaurant opposite, to name a few.

When the heavy cavalry thunder came to surround the wine shop, many people did not have time to support the wine shop, so they stayed outside the wine shop, and if there was any accident, they could respond at any time. After all, it is not as destructive as the combination of the inside and the outside, and these people naturally understand such a simple art of war.

It wasn't until the Loulan army arrived and confronted the hussars that they felt that things might have taken a turn for the better. On the surface, he watched the changes, but he was already anxious in his heart. Since Qin Cheng entered the wine shop, there has been no movement inside, and God knows what the situation is.

Xike Chafu roared, the Loulan army drew their swords, and the Hun warriors, who had long been unable to hold back, felt that the time had come and could not delay any longer, so they took the lead in launching a surprise attack.

In the end, they don't have much confidence in the Loulan army, if the hussars are still unmoving, will the fierce and vicious Loulan sergeants really dare to rush forward and fight desperately? In their eyes, Xike Chafu is just a person who sells his reputation and fame, and he is just grandstanding, just to show himself in front of King Loulan. If you really want to work hard, is it possible that he will still rush in front of him? If Sikoteaman really had this plan, why didn't he snatch a knife from a random sergeant at this time, and rush forward to cut those Han soldiers?

After all, no one dares to collide with those heavy horsemen with heavy armor and heavy swords first, who doesn't know that it will be a dead and corpseless end?

These Hun warriors did not dare to delay, the so-called concern was chaotic, and they could not afford the price of Yi Zhixian's accident in the wine shop and they watched the fire from the other side, even if they died, at least it would not affect their families and friends.

So these Hun warriors decided to provoke the war between the Loulan sergeants and the hussars, and if they did, these Loulan sergeants would be more likely.

After all, cannon fodder is already there.

....................................................

Nearly fifty Hun warriors who could be ten on weekdays rushed out of the roof of the street corner, with a fierce momentum, raising their swords and shouting and rushing towards the heavy cavalry, like a scalper whose tail had been burned, and there was a fierce spirit that was not afraid of death.

Because they are elite, they are different from ordinary sergeants when they move and stillness, so as soon as these Hun warriors come out, the eyes of many Loulan sergeants light up.

"Charge!" When the teaman saw that someone was taking the lead, he knew that the opportunity would not come again, so he immediately yelled and reminded the commander of the guard to lead someone to follow.

"Warriors, for the king!" The commander of the guards did not forget that he should pat the king of Loulan at this time, so he raised his knife in cooperation and led the guards to rush towards the hussars who were blocking the way.

When King Loulan saw this scene, a smile flashed in his eyes.

No matter who you end up allied with, at least your dignity as a king still has to be maintained. After all, he is forming an alliance with other countries, not going to be a grandson of other countries.

Of course, afterwards, I could have said that this was all the impulse of the guards, not my own intention. I believe that the other party is also a smart person, and if you really want to form an alliance, you won't care about these details.

What King Loulan didn't see was that the commander of the guards deliberately slowed down by half a beat when he led the people to charge.

The Hun warriors dressed in Hun costumes were in front, and the Loulan guards were behind, and Hula rushed to the heavy cavalry.

Seeing the people on the opposite side who were only thirty steps away from him, Qin Qingzhi's face did not change.

"Crossbow!" Qin Qingzhi's face didn't move, but the long knife in his hand had already been raised.

At this time, the difference between a general crossbow and a bow mainly lies in two aspects, one is the power, and the other is the operation method. The crossbow is more powerful, and the arrows are usually set up before use, so that the trouble of building arrows is saved when facing the enemy. Because of the power of the crossbow, the bowstring needs to be pulled with the help of feet, waist collapse and even machinery, and it is naturally inconvenient to take the arrow temporarily.

Qin Qingzhi's "crossbow" word just fell, and the heavy cavalry had already lifted the heavy crossbow flat, and the crossbow on the crossbow was one size larger than the general bow and arrow, and the crossbow arrow was aimed at the Hun warriors and Loulan soldiers who rushed in front of him.

The Hun warriors were on foot, and the Loulan soldiers rode horses, and in an instant they reached a distance of only ten paces from the heavy cavalry.

"Put!" The long knife in Qin Qingzhi's hand swung down and turned into a flat lift.

The trembling sound of a bowstring was mixed with the sound of crossbow arrows breaking through the air, and hundreds of crossbow arrows flew into the crowd of rushing people with a trajectory almost parallel to the ground and a dense array of arrows.

Blood, howls, crossbow arrows, swords falling to the ground, neighing horses, all dressed the street as a hellish sight.

Because of the proximity and the unusual power of the crossbow arrows, many of them penetrate a person's body, and then insert into the body of a second person, or even take them out.

It was just a volley, just a hundred heavy horsemen, rushing at the front dozens of Hun warriors, none of them were spared, and all of them were spilled with blood.

More than half of the dead, half of the incapacitated, and only a few people are still able to move.

The Loulan sergeants who followed behind these Hun warriors, many of them also hung up their colors, and whether they were injured or uninjured, they were all dumbfounded.

.................................................

They knew where the heavy cavalry could go and how invincible they were, but they didn't know that just a salvo could be so terrifying.

Many things are empty to say, and only when you really experience them can you know their true power.

All of a sudden, those Loulan sergeants' legs seemed to be nailed to the ground, and they didn't dare to move forward.

"Crossbow!"

Because at this time, Qin Qingzhi's calm command sounded again.

This time, instead of a hundred heavy horsemen holding a hundred crossbows, hundreds of crossbows were aimed at these Loulan sergeants.

Qin Qingzhi's face was always as usual, and his voice was calm, even if he was facing an army of Loulan that was several times his size.

It's just a rabble, why bother?

Waiting, not enough to move the general.

...........................................

Sergeant Loulan stopped, and the few Hun warriors who rushed up naturally gave their lives together.

Sikoteaman's face was dark, he gritted his teeth with hatred, and his body trembled slightly. Those who don't know think that he is angry because the hussars really dare to kill people. And only Sikochafu himself knew that he was completely afraid.

He had seen hussars fighting with heavy cavalry, and they won easily with five hundred against one.

But it was night after all, and he was far away, how could he see it really?

Later, Qin Qingzhi instigated the Loulan army to fight with the Xiongnu army, and the heavy cavalry did not join in. And in the end, the Huns were chased and killed all over the mountains, let alone the domineering of the heavy cavalry.

Sikochafu had enlisted in the army, and because of his military knowledge, he was able to tremble at a volley of hussars.

"Anyone who dares to trespass on the hussar formation, die!" Qin Qingzhi's extremely flat voice sounded again.

The voice was light, but it was much more effective than the previous shouts of the Siko teaman and the head of the guard.

When Qin Qingzhi finished saying this, his eyes swept casually from Xike Chafu's face.

The collision of eyes made Sico Chafu's heart tremble.

Because Qin Qingzhi's eyes were set off by hundreds of crossbow arrows, he looked particularly hideous and could kill people.

"Stand down."

After all, King Loulan said these two words, almost as if he was squeezed out of his teeth, and his face was as pale as paper.

If you don't go back, will you be embarrassed there?

Perhaps by this time, the king of Loulan will finally be able to know why the Han was able to drive the Xiongnu from the east to the west.

Compared with Xike Teaman, King Loulan was even more unhappy at this time.

Fortunately, this embarrassing and humiliating process of King Loulan ended quickly, otherwise his dignity as a king would have been completely lost here today.

"Collect the crossbow!" An order came from the door of the liquor store, and the voice was not loud and calm.

When the five hundred hussars heard this, they didn't look back, they all collected the crossbows in their hands, and then resumed their normal queues.

At the door of the wine shop, Qin Cheng stood casually, a little back beside him, standing Yi Xue'er, and on both sides were pro-soldiers.

Behind them, the slope of Yizhi sank like water.

Qin Cheng walked through the hussar army formation and walked towards the king of Loulan, and Yi Xue'er was behind him, and did not move again before reaching the military formation. Yi Zhi was standing at the door of the wine shop.

This pattern can be seen by anyone
