With a scream from the last man, the tent lights went out suddenly.

Ambiguity instantly enveloped this white-clouded camp.

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

Ah Gui, who was hiding far away, listened with bated breath, a smile appeared on his face, and after a smirk, he stood up, crossed his waist, and waved his hand to let those smoke cloud guards disperse.

Seeing that Sang Biao was still on tiptoe and looking curiously, Agui directly stretched out his hand, put his arms around his neck, and pulled him back into the tent.

"What's the matter, tell me about it!"

"If there is anything to say, you will know when you marry your daughter-in-law!"

There was a sound of no match, drifting farther and farther away, until it dissipated in the silent and romantic grassland night.

……

The next morning, the sky was still dark, and the few stars twinkled and gave their last rays.

The earth was cold and silent, and the wind blew, like the artemisia grass of wheat waves, slightly undulating.

Black earth, blue sky.

Bright colors, sharp contrasts.

The bright red of the eastern horizon brings a ray of light to the grassland at dawn.

And the rising sun, which gradually revealed an arc, emitted ten thousand golden lights, and also showed a bright future.

The tents had been put away, and the smoke cloud guards stood in front of their respective horses, silent.

After Lu Heng took a deep breath, he withdrew his gaze from the eastern horizon and took the lead in turning over and getting on the horse.

On the side, after Sang Biao touched the mane of the jujube red horse, he let out a loud shout, grabbed the saddle with both hands, and got on the horse neatly.

The crowd heard. All of them rolled over and got on their horses.

"Let's go!" Sang Biao pointed to the west and shouted.

Dozens of war horses, slowly stepping out of the horses' hooves, trampling on the morning dew-stained grassland. It's time to set off.

From a distance, between the red sky and the earth, dozens of war horses, lined up, with a strong coercion, slowly walked slowly.

……

The Tieda tribe is located, upstream of the Broken Leaf Water. That is, the generation of the Pamirs referred to by Lü Heng's later generations.

The Tieda tribe was originally a branch of the Xiongnu during the Qin and Han dynasties.

At that time, the two Han Dynasty continued their iron-blooded policy against the Xiongnu, and the Xiongnu continued to be defeated. Moving west. Gradually withdrew from the northern steppes.

But the Tieda tribe has settled down in the Broken Leaf Water Generation.

For thousands of years, the beliefs and customs of the Huns were still maintained.

In March, the broken leaves are horizontal, and there is still no green and yellow.

The ancients used the spring breeze not to pass the jade gate. to describe the difference between the climate of the Western Regions and the Central Plains. And this difference is even more obvious in this place where the broken leaves are level.

The mountains and rivers are full of melting snow. In the river valley, clear crushed leaf water. Flowing quietly. The melting snow and ice formed crystal clear ice cubes, and in this water, refracted psychedelic light.

Riverside. Several Tieda tribesmen dressed in colorful costumes, carrying buckets. Skillfully pressed the bucket into the river and filled it with water. Then he turned and walked towards the tribe with a chatter.

Maybe these girls are talking about whose guy is handsome, with a sunny smile and a hint of shyness on his red face.

On a spring morning, the river is crystal clear, and on the sparkling riverside, there are brightly dressed girls with beautiful bodies and laughing and laughing.

Everything was so calm.

However, with the sound of horses' hooves in a hurry, this quiet morning was completely broken.

The girls, who were walking back with buckets, stopped, turned their heads, and looked in the direction where the sound of horses' hooves came not far away.

I saw that five knights dressed in the military uniforms of the Great Zhou Dynasty were galloping towards the tribe on horseback.

The armor of these five knights was covered with cold dew, and at a glance they knew that they were wearing stars and moons, and they did not stop all the way.

Although there was a hint of tiredness on his face, those eyes were as bright as the stars in the vast night sky.

Five knights rode on their sturdy horses and galloped by like the wind.

While beside the girls who had come out early to fetch water, one of the knights glanced back. I saw the girl carrying a bucket and looking at herself blankly. The knight smiled and winked at the girl.

The girl hurriedly took a step back, and the bucket in her hand fell to the ground with a thud. When he came back to his senses and looked again, he saw that the knight who had just winked at him had disappeared into the smoke and dust in front of him.

The girl pursed her lips and smiled, and a touch of blush appeared on Gao Yuan's red face.

……

Tieda tribe, the royal court tent.

The round-arched tent is surrounded by ornate carvings and mystical totems. It adds a touch of mysterious coercion to this tent that is slightly dimly lit.

A bright ray of sunlight shone in through the hollow above the tent.

Underneath that beam of light was the Shan Yu Throne, which represented the supreme authority of the Tieda tribe.

The two daughters of Qingshuang Cangxue, dressed in golden clothes embroidered with blue wolves, sat side by side on the golden throne of Shan Yu.

Between the eyebrows, the momentum of the superior was unconsciously revealed.

The atmosphere in the whole tent is full of the majesty and domineering of the king.

On either side of the seat, the five clan elders sat there with worried expressions, their brows furrowed, and they sighed softly.

Three days ago, in the early morning, a large number of crusaders suddenly appeared on the outskirts of Golden Wolf Beach. The cavalry of the Tieda tribe, who was caught off guard, was taken by surprise. In that battle, the blood of a thousand warriors stained the grassland. The Golden Wolf Beach, the sacred land of the Tieda tribe, also fell into the hands of the Crusaders.

After occupying Golden Wolf Beach, the crusaders continued to advance. Now it is in the upper reaches of the Broken Leaf Water, less than a hundred miles away from the Tieda Royal Court.

Now that the Crusaders are approaching the city, the Tieda tribe is already standing on the edge of the cliff.

The tense atmosphere suddenly overwhelming.

The entire upper echelons of the tribe were immersed in an atmosphere of tension and unease.

Wearing a golden robe with a black wolf totem, and wearing a snow on his head with a single crown, he sat on the throne paper. Holding a golden scepter in his hand, his phoenix eyes were majestic, he glanced at the Governor Zuo under the seat, and said lightly: "Governor Zuo." Where are the crusaders located? ”

Governor Zuo stood up, stroked his chest with one arm, and said in a deep voice: "Now that we have arrived in Kuye City, we are less than a hundred miles away from the royal court!" ”

Governor Zuo hesitated. Raising his head and looking at the two Shan Yu, he comforted him for a long time: "Shan Yu, the situation is very tense now. Should the Horde be evacuated? ”

Cang Xue smiled slightly, and asked with a sideways face, "Evacuate?" Where to retreat? ”

Governor Zuo was speechless for a moment, bowed his head and said nothing.

Cang Xue slowly got up, stepped down from the throne, and moved lightly. After taking a few steps on the gorgeous woolen blanket, he slowly stopped.

Cang Xue turned around, pointed to the heaven and earth outside the tent, and said softly, "Elders. This is where our ancestors have lived for generations, and this is where our roots and blood are! Evacuate, heh, where are we going? Get out of this place. To the barbarians? And then what? Where are we going? ”

Hearing this, the elders bowed their heads and remained silent, but subconsciously clenched their fists.

Seeing that the elders looked ashamed, they bowed their heads and remained silent. Cang Xue smiled slightly. Raising his hand and pointing around, he whispered, "For thousands of years." Our Tieda people live here, and Zhang is here. Every stream here. There is not a single grass, it is all with our laughter, joy, anger and sorrow. Here......"

Cang Xue paused, smiled softly, and said in an accentuated tone: "Here, this is our home!" ”

With a light sigh, Cang Xue smiled, like the most beautiful flower on the grassland blooming in the sun.

"Elders, warriors of the steppe, now, a pack of jackals has invaded our homeland to occupy our homeland and slaughter our people. Now, please tell me, tell your Shan Yu, what are we going to do? Cang Xue stared at the elders whose breathing was heavier and their faces were flushed, and asked softly.

The words fell, and there was a deathly silence in the tent.

However, the blood and killing aura emanating from the elders gradually began to condense and diffuse.

By the end, it was a frenzy.

After a short silence, the elders stood up one after another, their eyes shining fiercely, gritting their teeth, waving their fists, and roaring murderously:

"Kill them!"

"Kill them!"

……

In the tent, the dull and oppressive atmosphere is no more,

The sound of blood boiling fills the ears, making people's hearts involuntarily surging.

Cang Xue smiled slightly and bowed her head slightly.

As Cang Xue slowly raised her hand, the shouts of the elders gradually subsided.

Their eyes were blazing, and they looked at their big Shan Yu excitedly, holding their breath, waiting for her to speak.

Cang Xue smiled lightly and slowly raised her hand, the pure gold scepter in her hand pointing straight to the sky.

Her beautiful eyes slowly closed, and she looked reverent.

Whispered: "Warriors ,......"

The elders' breathing instantly became heavy.

Their eyes were blazing and they looked at the honorable and beautiful Shan Yu.

There were a few people who couldn't control their emotions anymore, and their whole bodies were trembling sharply.

Cang Xue was silent for a moment, and then slowly opened her eyes. The pale blue eyes like autumn water carry the firmness of faith.

She looked around gently, lightly opened her cherry lips, and asked firmly: "Tell me, under the starry sky, who is the king of the Broken Leaf Plain!" ”

"The Great Huns! ~”

The elders' scimitars were instantly unsheathed, and the snow-bright steel knives pointed straight to the sky, and the roar instantly stirred the heavens and the earth.

……

Next, there is a series of operational deployments.

Cang Xue personally squatted in front of the sheepskin map, pointed to the landscape lines on the map, and made war deployments.

One after another, the orders were issued, and the elders beside him nodded their heads firmly.

Captain Zuo, who was squatting aside, looked ashamed and bowed his head in embarrassment.

After hesitating for a moment, Captain Zuo suddenly pounced and knelt on one knee. Raising his head, he touched his chest with one hand, and said ashamedly: "Da Shan Yu, I ...... just now"

Cang Xue raised her head and looked at the majestic man who was kneeling in front of her, seeing the look of shame on his face, obviously still feeling guilty because of the words she had just said about the evacuation.

Cang Xue smiled slightly, shook her head and said, "Captain Zuo, you are the most heroic man in our Tieda tribe, you have the strength of a lion and the agility of a leopard. What's more, you have the heart of a brave man! Temporary success or failure is nothing, this is only to believe, on the battlefield, how can you still frighten the enemy steppe lion! ”
