Qin Cheng and the two accompanying guards were talking, and the time of a stick of incense passed in a flash, during which Wei Qing and the Xiongnu condor archers always confronted each other across the hilly and mountain lines. The posture of bending the bow has been maintained for so long, and it is difficult to exert himself, Wei Qing's robe has long been soaked by sweat, and his lips are trembling involuntarily. The confrontation has reached this point, and the comparison is the endurance of the double defense, who has a stronger physique and whose willpower is more firm, who can win this confrontation. This seems to be a no-brainer.

As the sun sets, the grassland shines with a golden halo.

Just when Qin Cheng thought that the victory or defeat of Wei Qing and the Hun Condor Archers was entirely up to them, a little thunder suddenly sounded in the distance.

"What sound?" Qin Cheng leaned down, listened carefully with his ears on the ground for a while, his face suddenly became very ugly, and then he raised his head and said something that made everyone tremble, "It's the sound of horses' hooves!" ”

The sound of horses' hooves came from the north, and the fool knew that it could not be the cavalry of Upper Valley County.

"It's the Hun cavalry! What can I do? The accompanying guard asked urgently.

Qin Cheng's face was awe-inspiring, and his eyes were on Wei Qing. In any case, before the arrival of the Hun cavalry, the Hun archer in front of him must be dealt with, otherwise all follow-up actions will be impossible. Now, Qin Cheng can't care about why the Hun cavalry appeared here at this time, the Hun cavalry and the Han army have just fought a big battle, are they so unbearable that they are going to invade Shanggu again?

The speed of the Huns was very fast, and the sound of horses' hooves gradually became louder, and by this time it could almost be described as a thunderous sound.

The two accompanying guards all looked at Wei Qing anxiously, wishing that he would immediately pierce the throat of the condor shooter, so that everyone could flee for their lives. Wei Qing was also anxious in his heart, but his face was still the same, he knew that the more critical he was, the more he couldn't be the slightest different, otherwise if he was not careful, he would be in danger of being shot. At that time, Qin Cheng and the others would definitely not be able to save their lives under the bow and arrow of this condor archer.

Everyone was anxious, but helpless, seeing the sound of the Huns' hooves from far and near, the sound gradually became louder, but everyone could not act rashly half a step, this kind of but felt really uncomfortable. It is conceivable that the Hun eagle shooters on the side of the hills and mountains must be very proud at this moment.

"Hiss~"

Just when everyone was sweating profusely, there was a loud neighing of horses suddenly from the side of the Hun condor archers. The war horse that was dragged by Wei Qing and half-lying there was frightened, but it was a little spiritual, and it didn't jump out to cause chaos for everyone before, and then there was a thunderous sound of horse hooves from the Huns in the north, so he couldn't be quiet anymore and jumped up. Originally, it was not a big deal for this war horse to jump up, but his sudden neighing was quite loud, and it suddenly sounded behind the Condor Shooter, and the Condor Book and Wei Qing had been confronted for so long, and he was already tired and exhausted, and his nerves were even tighter to the extreme. Wei Qing heard this neighing, and his heart was also shocked, but after all, he was standing opposite, but he was not frightened, as a former general, Wei Qing's quality in battle was naturally impeccable, taking advantage of this opportunity, Wei Qing moved his body slightly, and finally saw the condor archer on the opposite side, and the iron arrow in his hand flew out!

The Hun Condor Archer is naturally not a general, almost at the same time as Wei Qing's iron arrow left the string, the iron arrow in his hand also shot towards Wei Qing, but he lost the opportunity first, the balance of his body has been broken, although this arrow was shot in time, the crosshair can no longer be guaranteed in a hurry. When Wei Qing's iron arrow pierced his throat, his iron arrow could only hit the lock on Wei Qing's shoulder!

After solving the last condor shooter, Wei Qing jumped over the mountain line, pulled the reins of the frightened war horse, and desperately stabilized it, but finally did not let it run away, this is the last leg strength of everyone, and it is impossible to rely on this war horse if there is any accident. At this time, Qin Cheng and the others also approached, Qin Cheng didn't care about his identity at this time, and besides, after Qin Cheng received the title of Shao Shangzao, there was no gap, and he patted Wei Qing's shoulder hard, and said with relief: "General Wei, you are really brave!" ”

The two accompanying guards both had relieved expressions on their faces, and their eyes were full of admiration when they looked at Wei Qing. Wei Qing didn't care about enjoying everyone's admiration and appreciation, and handed the reins in his hand to one of the accompanying guards, looking at Qin Cheng with an urge to kick people. Wei Qing was naturally worried about Qin Cheng's previous "unjust" behavior.

At this time, the Hun cavalry finally entered everyone's field of vision, a rough estimate, I am afraid that there are no less than five hundred, everyone looked at the Hun cavalry at a rapid pace, the two accompanying guards showed horror, resisted the urge to turn around and run, and looked at Wei Qing. Wei Qing and Qin Cheng's faces were not very good-looking, they glanced at each other, and they both read something from each other's eyes.

"General Wei has just worked a lot, he must be very tired, why don't you just rest here for a while?" Qin Cheng suddenly smiled and said, his expression was extremely relaxed.

Wei Qing nodded, "It's okay." With that, he sat on the ground with Qin Cheng.

"The grassland scenery in the evening, but a rare beauty, deserves the words picturesque rivers and mountains, General Wei has lived in Chang'an for a long time, it is rare to come to the border county, today there is a chance, don't miss the beautiful scenery in front of you." Qin Cheng looked at the surrounding scene, and finally stopped his gaze on the sunset in the sky, and said with a smile.

Wei Qing also looked left and right, his demeanor was suitable, and he praised: "The sunset is like blood, the sunset is like a belt, the Jinhai grassland, the birds are flying, and it is a good scenery!" ”

Qin Cheng laughed twice, pointed his finger at the Hun cavalry approaching them, and said loudly: "There are thousands of troops and horses to cheer up the king's martial arts, this scene, it is also a great blessing to see it once in life!" ”

"Not bad!" Wei Qing sighed, "If there were one or two pots of fine wine, it would be perfect, but it's a pity, it's a pity!" ”

"It's a pity!" Qin Cheng also sighed, "The fly in the ointment! However, there is a regrettable beauty, and it is even more charming, what does General Wei think? ”

"It's true that Shao Shangzao said this, Wei agreed!" Wei Qing laughed.

Qin Cheng and Wei Qing were talking and laughing here, seeing that the Hun cavalry was about to arrive, but they were in a hurry to break the two guards. The guard, who had spoken to Qin Cheng before, finally couldn't help it, and said hurriedly: "General, Shao Shangzao, this Hun cavalry is about to arrive, let's go quickly, don't talk and laugh here." After this stubble, the two of them can drink and talk as much as they want! ”

This guard has been following Wei Qing for a long time, and he has a close relationship with Wei Qing, so he dares to speak out. Unexpectedly, Wei Qing ignored him, and smiled at Qin Cheng first, and then said, "Zhao Huwei, then in your opinion, where should we run?" ”

"Naturally, it's the direction of the exchange." Zhao Huwei didn't know why Wei Qing would ask knowingly, and replied.

"The direction you came from? Ha ha! Wei Qing pointed behind him and said, "Let's go to Lao Mayuan, half a hundred miles of land is full of horses and Pingchuan, how can we outrun the Hun cavalry?" ”

After that, the horse whip in his hand symbolically gave Zhao Huwei a whip and scolded: "You are really stupid to your grandmother's house!" ”

"This ...... It's better than sitting back and waiting......" Guard Zhao lowered his head and whispered.

"Sitting?" Wei Qing couldn't help but give Zhao Huwei another whip and scolded: "When will you be more flexible?" It's been with me for so many years! Look at the two poplar forests behind you, do the Huns dare to approach us? ”

Zhao Huwei picked up the leg that had been whipped by Wei Qing, looked back, his eyes were full of puzzlement, and he wanted to ask, but he was afraid of being whipped, so he finally held back and was at a loss for a while.

In fact, Zhao Huwei's heart was also depressed and tight, and he didn't know why the general, who had always been tired of his pure teachings, would whip him today, although it was only symbolic, and I didn't know why the general, who had always been extremely cautious, knew that he might encounter the Hun cavalry here, why he would risk himself, and I didn't know why the general, who had never been smiling, would laugh frequently today, and even made his own jokes, and I didn't know that the general's tendon was wrong and began to be a scholar and scholar to enjoy the scenery.

He didn't know, and he couldn't figure it out, so he panicked in his heart, but he couldn't ask, so he had to hold it all the time.

Wei Qing saw that Zhao Guard's puzzled look was not bothered, and he didn't bother to say anything to him, looked at the other guard, and asked, "Do you know the root cause?" ”

The guard's lips, who looked relatively wooden, moved, looked at Wei Qing, and then at Qin Cheng, after all, he wanted to speak and stopped, and finally hugged his fists and said, "My subordinates don't know." ”

"Damn, it's really for nothing that you two erectors are raised, it's really annoying to me!" Wei Qing couldn't help but scold, and simply didn't bother to look at them again.

Qin Cheng smiled, didn't say much, and returned his gaze to the five hundred Hun cavalry who were already only two or three miles away from everyone.

Wei Qing and Qin Cheng were sitting, two guards were leading horses and standing behind them, in front of them, was a shot condor shooter, and a hundred steps away on both sides, each lying a dead Hun eagle archer.

Qin Cheng and Wei Qing looked at the rushing Hun cavalry, and their faces did not change. The five hundred Hun cavalry quickly whipped up their horses to a place two or three miles away from Qin Cheng and the others, and suddenly reined in their horses, stopped, and stopped moving forward.

The cavalry force of 500 people began to reorganize the formation after stopping, and none of them rode towards Qin Cheng and the others.

The hearts of the two guards were raised to their throats, and they watched the Hun cavalry rush to the near place in a daze, and stared at each other in a daze to restrain their horses and reorganize their formations, and they were nervous for a while.

"You two, sit down too!" Wei Qing ordered without replying.

"Huh?" The two guards were stunned for a moment, not knowing what Wei Qing meant, and were stunned for a while, but the guard, who had not spoken much, sat down first. Zhao Huwei saw that his colleagues were all seated, even though he was puzzled and unwilling in his heart, he had to sit down hard.

The Huns on the opposite side lined up in formation, and they didn't see any other movements, staring at Qin Cheng and the others one by one, and their momentum was very fierce.

Half a sound, it is estimated that this group of Hun cavalry saw the situation on the side of Qincheng clearly, and also found that the condor archers lying in the grass on the side of Qincheng who only showed half of their bodies walked out of a horse and ran towards Wei Qing and others.

"General Wei." Qin Cheng looked at Wei Qing meaningfully.

"I'm coming!" Wei Qing straightened up, stepped on the only remaining war horse, and patted the horse to meet the Hun cavalry who rode the horse.

"General?!" The two guards stood up, looked at Wei Qing, and exclaimed.

"Sit down!" Qin Cheng said coldly, his tone was unquestionable.

The two guards glanced at Qin Cheng, then looked at each other, and finally sat down, and said hurriedly: "Shao Shangzao, the general is ......."

"Don't worry, General Wei will be fine, you can sit with peace of mind!" Qincheng Road.

Wei Qing slapped his horse out and greeted the Hun cavalryman, not waiting to get closer, but he drew his bow and arrows, and shot the other party off his horse before he could speak!

Wei Qing's action directly shocked both sides. There was a commotion among the Hun cavalry, and they were about to rush over and trample Wei Qing into pulp!

In the Xiongnu queue, a white-horse cavalry led by him scolded twice, and it was only then that the commotion could be stabilized.

"General?!"

"Sit still!"

Qin Cheng didn't wait for the two guards to get up in surprise, and then he said coldly, revealing a thick majesty in his tone, with a sense of inviolability.

Wei Qing shot the Hun cavalryman, patted the horse and turned around twice in front of the place where he fell, and snorted coldly at the five hundred Hun cavalry, and then calmly rode his horse back.

From beginning to end, not a single Hun cavalry rushed out to shoot Wei Qing.

Wei Qing calmly returned to everyone's side, got off the horse, and sat down next to Qin Cheng again.

"General Wei is extraordinary, Qin admires it!" Qin Cheng said with a smile.

Wei Qing waved his hand, his expression calm, "It's a trivial matter, why worry about it." ”

"Haha!" Qin Cheng laughed twice, and then said no more.

By this time, the sunset had disappeared, the sky was getting darker, and the night began to cover the land.

The Hun cavalry lit up the torches, but they refused to disperse, and still confronted Qin Cheng and others from afar. The two guards also wanted to light the torches, but they were stopped by Wei Qing and Qin Cheng at the same time, the Zhao guards were puzzled and wanted to ask more, Wei Qing said simply: "It's not too late to order later." ”

It wasn't until the sky was completely dark that he couldn't see his five fingers, and Qin Cheng waited for a while before lighting the torch.

Qin Cheng picked up a torch, walked up to the top of the hill, raised the torch above his head, waved it three times clockwise, and then three times counterclockwise, then extinguished half of the torch and threw it in the direction of the two poplar forests!

After doing all this, before Qin Cheng sat down again, there was a commotion among the Hun cavalry, accompanied by a few shouts.

"General, Shao Shangzao, Huns, attack!" Zhao Escort reflexively shouted.

"Attack your mother's head!" Qin Cheng scolded unceremoniously, snatched his torch, and kicked it directly to the ground.

Damn, I've seen stupid people, but I've never seen someone who is stupid enough to be stupid and like to shout and flaunt his IQ through the market!

"Uh......" Wei Qing saw that Qin Cheng was angry, and he didn't have much to say, so he had to say: "The Huns have retreated!" ”

The two guards fixed their eyes, and sure enough, the Huns had quickly retreated in the direction they came from with torches.

"This ...... What's going on? When Zhao Huwei saw the Hun cavalry withdrawing, he was dumbfounded. He couldn't figure out why the Huns had withdrawn.

"Zhao Huwei, are you very confused about the behavior of the Huns today? I wonder why they didn't rush over directly in the evening, and why did they just say retreat? Wei Qing sighed, a little hated that iron could not become steel.

"Yes...... Subordinates are dull. Zhao Huwei lowered his head and said.

"Well, I'll tell you about it!" Wei Qing said, "Because the Huns thought that we were suspicious soldiers of the army to lure the enemy - the two poplar forests behind were the best ambush places, so they didn't dare to attack rashly." ”

Wei Qing saw that Zhao Huwei was still puzzled, so he simply said: "The Huns have always been vigilant, and in the siege of Mayi two years ago, the Huns also relied on their vigilance to make our ambush plan fail. This time, the Huns have just suffered a big defeat, so they are even more cautious. Therefore, when they saw us and the other four staying here in a hurry, and saw the large poplar forest behind us, they did not dare to attack rashly. Moreover, the death of all three Hun Condor Archers made them even more suspicious - they probably wouldn't have thought that we would shoot three of them with only four of them. After that, Ben will boldly attack and shoot the Huns' messengers directly, which seems arrogant, but the Huns think that we are full of confidence, so they deliberately provoke them, so they dare not attack. But they were not willing to retreat, so they stayed here. It wasn't until it got dark that the Huns had to let us attack at night, so our courage was a little weaker. It was not until Shao Shangzao threw out the torch that seemed to be a signal that the Huns finally did not dare to stay any longer, and it is not surprising that they all withdrew. ”

“…… I see. Zhao Huwei was fascinated by what he heard, and after listening to it, he suddenly realized.

Wei Qing patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Know yourself and know your opponent, you will not be defeated in a hundred battles." If I hadn't known a lot about the temperament of the Huns, I wouldn't have taken this risky plan with Shao Shangzao - but there really is no other way to choose at the moment. ”

"The general and the young master are very wise, and we admire them to the fullest." The two guards walked in unison.

Qin Cheng and Wei Qing looked at each other and smiled, but they were actually secretly relieved in their hearts, just to say that there was no sense of tension at all, but it was far-fetched.

"Someone's coming." Qin Cheng motioned to everyone.

Everyone turned their heads to look, and sure enough, they saw a group of more than a dozen torches, leaning over from a distance.

"It should be border guards
