Chapter 43: A Night Spy on the Enemy

At night, Gongzi Wei Xing and the others quietly stood on a very simple boat, looking at the three bright bonfires and the crowd by the lake through the night.

"Each force has about two or three hundred people, not too many, but they are all elite men who have been fighting for a long time." Cao Da explained slowly on the side.

"Uncle Da, do the people of the three of them doubt the existence of the fourth party, that is, us?" Gongzi Wei Xing asked casually.

"Probably not, our whereabouts are very secretive, and most of our people only move at night, so they are very cautious." Cao Da thought about it carefully and replied very cautiously.

"Do we now know where all three forces come from?" Gongzi Wei Xing continued to ask.

"I'm sorry, Childe! We haven't detected it clearly, and none of them are carrying anything to identify themselves. ”

"But we found out that one of them was supposed to be a Cypriot."

The Cypriots had a tall nose and thick beard, tall whites, some of whom had blonde hair, and they were a people who gradually migrated westward from the Yueshi side, and they were brave and warlike, and the form of government had always been a slave royal and tribal alliance, in which the Seyman was elected among the chiefs.

"There is only one Xiaowan Kingdom in the south of the desert, which is ruled by the Sai people, it can't be someone sent by the Xiaowan Kingdom, right?"

Everyone has similar worries in their hearts, the Xiaowan Kingdom is not too far from here, seven or eight hundred miles away, and a large number of people and horses are only in the early tens!

In the Western Regions, the kingdoms that exist cannot be compared with the Central Plains Dynasty;

But there are countless forces living in this vast land, and they can be called the great forces of the kingdom by everyone, and their military strength is quite strong, and they have conquered quite a lot of tribes and places.

At least within their thousands of miles of territory, they are an irresistible overlord.

"The other group seems to resemble the Huns, but it is impossible to be sure." Cao Da continued hesitantly.

Gongzi Wei Xing didn't take it to heart after hearing this, and responded casually: "It's not much harm to us!" Although the strength of the Xiongnu in the north was much stronger than that of the Xiaowan Kingdom, their power was in the steppes of the northern Tianshan Mountains, and they were neighbors of the Wusun people, and their influence could not extend here for a while. ”

The Xiongnu are the ancestral home of the Altai Mountains in the southeast, the west of the Great Khing'an Mountains, the south of the Mongolian steppe, the northeast of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and the northwest of the North China Plain.

When the Xiongnu were strong, they broke Donghu in the east, merged Loulan and Henan in the south, attacked Yueshi and the countries of the Western Regions in the west, and served Ding Ling in the north and Jiankun in the northwest.

The range is centered on the Mongolian Plateau and extends to the eastern part of Inner Mongolia in the east.

It is adjacent to the Qin and Han dynasties along the Great Wall in the south, and once controlled the Hetao and Ordos areas;

To the west, it is bounded by the Altai Mountains, penetrates deep into the Aral Sea and the Black Sea in Central Asia, and reaches the vicinity of Lake Baikal in the north;

It is known as the "Great Hundred Barbarian Powers", and is divided into two parts, the south and the north, with the Great Gobi as the center.

During the Han Dynasty, it was constantly beaten, and its power gradually turned from prosperity to decline, and the Xiongnu in Monan began to be attached;

In order to escape the blow of the Central Plains Dynasty, the Xiongnu in Mobei gradually migrated westward, and now they want to become the overlord of the Western Regions from time to time, and the relationship with the former younger brother Wusun is quite unharmonious.

The Wusun people have occupied the large basin in the northern part of the Tianshan Mountains for hundreds of years, with lush water and grass, abundant products, and quite powerful power, and they are the big overlords of that area, so they naturally refuse to let the Northern Xiongnu blackmail and bully them as before!

"The last group of centaurs, whose style seems to be very much like the people of the skeleton flag, but there is no way to get up close." Cao Da sighed weakly.

"Skull Flag?" This demonic name reappeared in Gongzi Wei Xing's ears, making him very uncomfortable and unusually harsh.

Although everyone hopes that the centaur has nothing to do with the Skull Banner, everyone knows that the probability of a relationship is quite high;

Because half a year ago, they had secretly besieged and killed a skeleton banner of 100 people around them;

The 100-man Skull Banner was likely to be the vanguard horse team that was the first to seek the treasure.

The Skull Banner is the most brutal horse bandit in the Western Regions, and it can be used by any means without any morality;

Once the grievances between Phoenix Fort and them are found out, it will be a disaster for Phoenix Fort, and everyone's hearts are heavy and their mood is a little low.

"I'm afraid of what these beasts are doing, if they dare to come, Huyan, I will tear them all apart, throw them into hell, and enter the beast path and the hungry ghost path!" Huyan Leopard pouted proudly.

"Huyan, please brag about the draft first, okay?" Xiahou Zhu on the side sneered disdainfully.

"Xiahou, if I can't make a draft, what do you care?" Huyan Leopard asked unconvinced.

"It's none of my business that you are embarrassed, but you are so embarrassed by Phoenix Castle, my Xiahou Zhu will be the first grandmaster-level legend of Phoenix Castle in the future!" Xiahou Zhu shouted.

"Xiahou, you still said that I brag and don't make drafts, please take a look at your appearance first, right?"

"Huyan, don't be unconvinced, or the two of us will compete again!"

"Xiahou, when I'm afraid of you and want to fight again, I'm waiting for Huyan Leopard at any time, but I was the one who won the last battle, I'm afraid that you are hard-mouthed!"

"Huyan, whoever is afraid of who is the grandson, if you don't accept it, you will come, if you lose this fight, you will go around!"

"Yes, whoever is afraid is afraid! If you are not convinced, come now! ”

"Afraid of you? Come on! ”

、、、、、、

"Okay, let's not see what kind of place this is!" Cao Da glared at the two of them very unhappily, and continued to reprimand: "If you want to fight, when you get to the shore, you two can toss as you want!" ”

"It's all such a big person, and you still want to be out of tune like a teenager, and it's not a shame?"

Gongzi Wei Xing was also a little annoyed that the two of them had been arguing like this, but they were innocently injured by Uncle Da's words, and they helplessly shouted: "Uncle Da, you are discriminating against us young people by saying this!" The two of them are so stubborn, they can't blame all the bad things on us young people, we young people haven't offended Uncle Da, your old man! ”

Cao Da naturally knew that Childe was teasing the two of them, so he took over smartly and apologized: "Childe, I was wrong!" Comparing the two of them to teenagers is a bit of an insult to you young people! ”

Huyan Leopard and Xiahou Zhu were squeezed by the two of them like this, their faces were not good-looking, they snorted at each other, and they both turned their faces away and stopped squeaking.

After a while, Gongzi Wei Xing looked at such a simple and rough boat under his feet, and said with some worry: "This small boat is so-so, let's row back quickly, don't fall into the lake and become a soup chicken!" ”

Cao Da explained with some embarrassment: "Childe, you also know that there are very few skilled shipbuilders in the Western Regions, and it is not easy for us to explore and build more than a dozen small ships like this in the past few months!" ”

"Uncle Da, I understand very well! This time I went to Liangzhou, I originally wanted to invite a few shipwrights over, but the time was too rushed, and I didn't take care of it! ”

"When time is freed, we Phoenix Fort will definitely invite a few skilled boatmen to come over, the stone fort is located not far from the big river, and there will be no shortage of big ships in the future!" Childe Wei Xingdao.

"It's indispensable! If we really build a few big ships out, it will be much more convenient for us to go to the end of the city and Shanshan City! After Cao Da said this, he suddenly remembered some things, and asked hurriedly: "Childe, this is almost autumn, your fourteenth birthday seems to be coming soon, right?" ”

"Uncle Da, you have been busy, it is not easy to remember these trivial things!"

"Phoenix Castle is in a moment of crisis right now, what do I have on my birthday?" Gongzi Wei Xing muttered a few words.

"This can't be done, we didn't have the conditions before, but now it's much better, why do we have to have a lively once!" Cao Da insisted.

"Yes! Childe, it's time to have a big one! Xiahou Zhu also agreed.

"Da Ge's proposal is good, I've wronged you for so many years!" Huyan Leopard also felt that it was time to hold one.

"You guys don't make a fuss, the timing of this year is very wrong, let's talk about it next year!"

"Childe, you 、、、、、、"

"Alright, that's it! Hurry back home, the temperature is a little cold at night! Gongzi Wei Xing said sharply.

、、、、、、

With the passage of time, summer goes to autumn, time has come to the end of August unconsciously, and autumn has quietly passed halfway!

"Why haven't you found the treasure yet, these nasty guys?"

Xiahou Zhu and the others have been guarding in the secret valley, guarding against unintentional enemies, and their lives are very boring, lying on a stone, throwing a grape into their mouths, and muttering boringly.

"yes, it's fucking boring! Finding the treasure early and ending it early is too confusing! Huyan Leopard also complained listlessly.

At this time, Gongzi Wei Xing practiced his gun skills for an hour, walked back sweaty, wiped his sweat casually, and comforted: "Don't complain, hold on for two more months at most, no matter if they find the treasure or not, it's time to get out before it snows!" ”

"Damn treasure, why is it hiding near the lake? What a disaster! Xiahou Zhu swallowed a few more grapes and cursed depressedly.

"Uncle Xiahou, every grape is silver for white flowers, don't waste it like this! Taste it and forget it! Gongzi Wei Xing persuaded distressedly.

"Yes! Xiahou, your way of eating is too wasteful!" Huyan Leopard took the opportunity to quip.

"Childe, you're too stingy! There are so many grapes, and everyone should eat them comfortably first! ”

"And you Huyan Leopard, don't pretend to be a good person, you are not much better than me, fifty steps and a hundred steps, you may waste more than me!" Xiahou Zhu sneered disdainfully.

"Both of you are greedy lazy pigs, if you eat so much, your teeth will break out sooner or later, and there will be times when you regret it!"

Gongzi Wei Xing said a few words, turned his head and left, seeing the appearance of them ruining the grapes, he felt very uncomfortable, and the silver of the white flowers disappeared like this, and he was distressed!
