Chapter 1028: Fleeing from the Shadows

Whoosh!

Arrows slash through the sky, piercing through the air!

Ding Ding Ding!

The cold arrows pierced into the trunks and dirt, not hitting the flesh, but making the fleeing crowd even more nervous.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

The pro-soldier guards who opened the way in front split the branches blocking the road with a knife, pressed down the branches on both sides with their bodies, and then turned sideways to make way for them, and then waved eagerly to let the people behind hurry up.

Suddenly, a line of figures passed by him, struggling through the dense forest.

There were about thirty or forty people in this group, three or four of whom were Han generals at first glance, and the rest were guarded by personal soldiers.

Although they were fleeing, and the pursuers followed very closely, these people did not mess up the queue and rules because they fled, and they still maintained a certain shelf, barely advancing and retreating in an orderly manner.

There are many chasing soldiers behind, and a group of people who are pressed by the black can still hear the barking of dogs, but this is in the dense forest, and the number of people does not necessarily have an advantage.

The group that fled in front of them was obviously more familiar with the terrain and landforms, and after a few turns, they directly used a slope to roll down, and then leaned against a few rocks to cover it, quickly shook off the pursuers, and gained valuable respite.

"A few of you, hurry up and bandage it, don't leave any sequelae, we don't have much time, the other party has war dogs, they will come over soon, we have to set off again before they arrive."

As soon as they stopped, a rather majestic voice sounded in the fleeing crowd, clear and full of energy.

This person is dressed in a military uniform, his hair is half scattered, but he also has a trace of famous morale, it is the former Jinyang Taishou who resisted the Xiongnu around Yanmen, and Liu Kun, the assassin of Bingzhou.

However, the gold content of his assassin history is very low, because almost all the land in Bingzhou has been controlled by the Xiongnu, only a few dock forts and isolated cities are barely resisting, and the population that is really in Liu Kun's hands is almost none, and the soldiers and horses are also very limited.

Relying on the support of these dock fort owners, Liu Kun was able to maintain more than four years of guerrilla warfare, taking advantage of the contradiction between the Xiongnu Shan Yu Liu Yi and the Xiongnu lord Liu Cong, and barely supported in the cracks, until now.

It's a pity that with Liu Yi's failure, the situation has changed, and it is finally difficult for Liu Kun to support it.

"I didn't expect that Liu Cong actually had such courage, on the surface he said that he was going to attack Liu Yao, but in fact he wanted to exterminate us, in order to deal with our less than 10,000 people, he mobilized nearly 50,000 soldiers and horses, I really look up to me Liu."

After dealing with a few wounded, everyone found a place to sit down, eat dry food, and recover their strength, Liu Kun looked at the miserable situation of several people in front of him, and couldn't help sighing.

They haven't escaped from the danger yet, but they have already exhausted their physical strength by running all the way, and if they don't recover, they don't have to run in the future, they just surrender.

It's just that the consequences of surrender are unbearable for anyone, and the price offered by the Xiongnu lord in order to reward Liu Kun's population is not low.

Listening to the emotion, the soldiers who opened the road in front of him as a guide came over to comfort: "Don't worry, they Huns don't pay attention to the exploration of the landform in the forest, they are not familiar with us, it is easy to get rid of them, not far ahead, that is, in Youzhou, there is the prestige of the Xuanjia Army, and the Huns will not dare to chase it!" Moreover, the terrain here is narrow, if they want to outflank, encircle, and launch a formation, they will have to enter Youzhou, and their subordinates will not have the courage to do so! ”

"Youzhou Xuanjia Army ......" chewed these two words, Liu Kun's face was a little complicated.

The name of the general of Youzhou Assassin and Zhengbei had heard about it as early as a few years ago, and even when he was defeated and retreated to Yanmen, he had sent a message asking for help, agreeing that if the situation was too bad, he would go over and defect.

Fortunately, in the end, Liu Kun got rid of the predicament and barely took root, so he didn't think about going to Youzhou anymore, thinking that he would open up a world in Bingzhou and get back the lost lands one by one.

Over the past few years, in order to deal with the Huns, his original morale has been smoothed, and his shoes have worn out I don't know how many pairs, and his hands have grinded out thick cocoons, but not only has this territory not been recaptured, but his own soldiers are fighting less and less, and the territory is getting smaller and smaller.

It's a pity that now the Tuoba Six Cultivation of the Tuoba Department is the new single Yu, and the Xiongnu interrupted the Tuoba Department's help to Liu Kun with a little trick, so that he completely lost his dependence, and finally became a lost dog and fled in panic.

"After all, are you going to go to Youzhou......

Liu Kun is a talented man in the end, although he has a history of assassination in the state and cannot be compared with the history of the assassin in Youzhou, but in the end, he has fought hard for a few years by himself, and he has a lot of achievements, especially in the past two or three years, with the silence of Youzhou, the name of the Han family's good fighting in the north has fallen on his head Liu Kun, and many people call him and Chen Zhi together.

As a result, until now, Liu Kun still has to go to Chen Zhi and seek refuge, which is really not a good feeling in his heart.

Liu Qun, the son who fled with him, saw his father's thoughts, and said: "First settle down in Youzhou, rectify it, and then go north to borrow troops from the Tuoba Department, the eldest brother is quite appreciated by the six cultivators in the Tuoba Department, and he will be able to help his father succeed, and the name of the Tuoba Xianbei cavalry will resound throughout the grassland, attack the Huns, and restore the homeland, just around the corner!" ”

Liu Kun listened and sighed.

Liu Zun, the eldest brother mentioned by Liu Qun, is in the Tuoba Department as a proton, which can be regarded as one of the conditions for Liu Kun's cooperation with the Tuoba Ministry.

The state was stolen by the Xiongnu, Liu Kun could not get the assistance of the imperial court, and was unwilling to submit to Chen Zhi's command, and was unwilling to ask for help from Youzhou, so he could only pin his hopes on the Tuoba tribe, which was one of the main forces in the north that could confront the Xiongnu.

It's a pity, it turns out that relying on the support of the Tuoba Department, it is not enough to win, Liu Kun is not without borrowing soldiers, he and Tuoba Lao Shan Yu Tuoba Yilu after bowing, immediately borrowed tens of thousands of cavalry, laid down a situation, but unfortunately the soldiers, can not stay for a long time, and the soldiers are not in hand, the territory can not be kept, it is difficult to last.

"No," Liu Kun sighed, shook his head, his voice was full of exhaustion, "The war with the Huns does not depend on temporary success or failure, they already have a foundation in Bingzhou, unless they can take charge of the Tuoba tribe and slowly figure it out, otherwise relying on borrowing troops alone, even if they can win for a while, they will not last long, Xianbei is not the Han family, it is difficult for me to use, and the Tuoba cavalry is not the strongest in the north, why should we give up the near and far?" ”

Liu Qun frowned: "What my father said is the Youzhou soldiers and horses?" It's just Youzhou soldiers and horses, how many years have they not moved? How the combat power is is hearsay, or according to the achievements of the past few years, that is, there is a name of the Xuanjia Army recently, but no one has seen it with their own eyes, on the other hand, the Tuoba Department, and even the Murong Department, because of the failure a few years ago, whether it is Murong Diao, Murong Hao, or Tuoba Liuxiu have ambitions, conquest and expansion, and the soldiers and horses under their command have experienced the actual combat test, how can they talk lightly about the strength and weakness? ”

In fact, Liu Kun and his son were fighting guerrillas in the Yanmen area, and the news was quite closed and knew very little, but they knew more or less about it.

Liu Kun shook his head and said softly: "I don't see the soldiers and horses of Youzhou going out to fight, but how much should I know what the Seven Rank Xianbei did, could it be that the Youzhou Xuanjia can still be weaker than the Seven Rank Clan?" ”
