Chapter 128 Khitan Totem Lined up to greet each other
More than 20 people knelt in two rows. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Lu Zheng walked up to the more than 20 people, glanced around, and found that he only knew Hasen, Helegui, Battle, and a few leaders who served with Helegui before. Lu Zheng didn't know any of the rest of the people.
After Arslen's introduction, Lu Zheng learned that these people were the leaders of the tribes who served later, and they were also the current commanders of the army. Then Lu Zheng greeted these people one by one, and specially hugged Husen and other acquaintances.
After the excitement, Lu Zheng suddenly seemed to remember something. Lu Zheng turned his head to Arslen and said, "Anda, where is the messenger of the Liao Kingdom?" Why didn't he come back early? Why did you just bring the troops here? ”
When Arslen heard Lu Zheng's words, he glanced at Hassen, and then laughed and said, "Anda, I wanted to surprise you, so I came directly." Didn't you say that you were going to fight the Jin Kingdom with the Liao State? If you don't bring the army over, what will you fight? ”
Hasen also laughed and said: "Lu Zhengtou, the Arslentou man said that he wanted to surprise you, so I left the messenger of the Liao State and poured wine for several days, and now he is still drunk!" Hahahaha......"
When Lu Zheng heard Hasen's words, he couldn't bear it anymore and laughed.
After laughing for a while, Lu Zheng restrained his smile and said to Hasen: "The herald army will camp in the same place outside the city. ”
Hassan stroked his chest and saluted: "Yes!" ”
Lu Zheng looked at the mighty Mongolian iron horseman who couldn't see the edge at a glance, and he still couldn't believe that this was true in his heart.
Although there are many people, so are the horses. However, the line-up was extremely neat and quiet, and only the occasional sound of horses snapping their noses could be heard. These grassland men have all grown up on horseback since childhood, and their cooperation with war horses has reached the level of unity of man and horse.
Mongolian horses have good endurance, and when they encounter long-distance runs or rapid marches, these steppe men can even sleep on horseback. Although part of the territory of the Liao State is actually on the grassland, the tribe is not close to here, and the reason why Arslenzhi can come so quickly is also because the people and horses of the army have extremely high physical fitness.
Hasson gave the order, and the army began to camp in place.
Lu Zheng came to the three Arslen brothers and sisters and said, "Anda, you go into the city with me. You are the commander of the army, and it is also a courtesy to go and meet the commander of the Liao State first. ”
Arslen nodded and said, "Do you need to bring some people?" ”
Lu Zheng smiled slightly, and said: "There is no need, the marshal of the Liao Kingdom is actually the second prince, he is good, and I have already made an appointment with him." ”
Alslen nodded, came to Bai Xue's side, and jumped on Bai Xue's back with a light jump.
Red Edge and White Lotus leaned down, and Arjuna and Jiya climbed up.
Lu Zheng looked at the grassland Shuangzhu, smiled slightly, and said, "I feel that our wolves seem to be taller, is this my delusion, or have they really grown up again?" ”
Arjuna smiled sweetly and said, "It's really grown up, much taller than before." Now that the white lotus doesn't bend down, I don't dare to jump off its back, it's too high......"
Ji Ya touched the supple red hair on Hongyuan's back, and also spoke: "Yes, yes! Rededge, in particular, is much taller and stronger than before, and I find it seems to jump higher now......"
Lu Zheng smiled slightly, jumped on the back of the red lion, and said, "Let's go." ”
The four of them rode four giant wolves and walked towards the border city of Liao. He was followed by more than twenty of Arslen's guards, led by Battle, and among them were eight powerful warriors.
Jeruiari had woken up earlier, and now he was relieved. The reason why he was scared like that at first was not that Yeluari was timid. The main thing is that the red lion jumped on the city wall after stealth, and then appeared out of thin air, which was too contrary to common sense, and Yeluyali couldn't accept it for a while, so he fainted in fright.
And there is another reason, just now not only Yelu Yali was afraid, but all the Khitan people around were afraid, this is actually because the totemic beast of the Khitan people is - wolf!
The Khitan people worship the strong, and the wolf is the absolute strong man on the grassland, coupled with some mysterious legends of the Khitan ancestors, the wolf has become the totem of the Khitan people.
There are many Khitans who tattoo wolf heads on their bodies, or whole wolves. This represents the belief in the totem, and also represents that he is a strong man on the grassland, a warrior as powerful as a wolf.
The Khitans, in fact, are also steppe people and nomadic people. It was only later that the Liao State became strong and gradually began to learn to use Han culture, which slowly broke away from the nomadic life.
Jerodin had arrived with a great army.
Yeluyali stood on the city wall and watched the mighty Mongol army in the distance.
Jerodin was now standing beside Jeruiari, looking in the same direction.
Yeluding looked at the black Mongolian cavalry, sighed, and said, "Second brother, this kid Lu Zheng is too deeply hidden. Didn't he say that he only had about 10,000 Mongolian iron horsemen? Now 50,000 all at once?! ”
Yelu Yali shook his head and said, "Lu Zheng didn't lie, I can see that he was also surprised just now." Obviously, he himself didn't expect that the Mongol army that came this time was actually his ......"
After speaking, Jeruyali left the edge of the wall, walked to a chair prepared for him by the guards, sat down, and began to fall silent, holding his forehead.
Jerodin was about to speak, when he suddenly saw the Mongol army split from the front and left and right, and a group of people came out of it.
Jerodine squinted, propped his hands on the wall, and poked his head out to look closely. After Yeluding saw it clearly, his eyes suddenly widened, and he blurted out: "Second brother! Look at Lu Zheng, what they are riding!! ”
Yeluyali didn't even raise his head, and said, "It's a huge red wolf, right?" I've already learned that......"
Yeluding's tone trembled a little, and he hurriedly spoke, "No...... It's not one! Be...... It's four! ”
Yeluyali now trembles at the mention of wolves, that kind of huge wolf, Yeluyali has lived so big, he has never heard of it, let alone seen it with his own eyes. Jerodin even said there were four?
Yelu Yali said helplessly: "Fifth brother, don't make fun of me." I fainted just now because the wolf appeared too suddenly, completely out of thin air, and I ......"
Seeing that Yeluyali did not believe, Yerodin simply ran over and pulled Yeluyali to the edge of the city wall, and then pointed to the distance with his hand and said, "See for yourself!" ”
Yeluyali looked in the direction pointed by Yeluding, and was dumbfounded, and muttered dreamily, "There really are four...... Two red ...... Two white ones! ”
Yeluding opened his mouth and said, "Second brother, this ...... How is this possible? Where did Lu Zheng get so many giant wolves? And...... And you can ride it as a horse?! ”
As Lu Zheng and the others got closer and closer, Yelu Yali saw more and more clearly, and his expression changed faster and faster.
Jeruyali suddenly turned his head and shouted to the guard:
"Open the gates of the city and line up to meet you!"
