Chapter 39: The Encounter
Since noon, Xiao Qu's illness has noticed that more and more people have migrated to the west.
"Prince Yama, go and ask." Xiao Qu said in a deep voice.
Yama took the order, and not long after, he came back and reported: "According to them, it was our Tang army that called, and those big cannibals received an order to evacuate westward, and those people with the surname Zhaowu also ran with them. ”
Xiao Quzhi thought about it, Gao Xianzhi must have been attacking Hushu City at this time, and he asked, "Did these big cannibals escape from Hushu City?" ”
Yama shook his head: "No, there aren't many big cannibals in Hushu City, most of them fled from the Eastern Cao Kingdom. ”
"Do they know what's going on in Humlust City?" Xiao Qu said in a deep groan.
"They all said they don't know, I look at their situation, and they seem to be very afraid of the Anxi Army." Yama pouted.
"This is normal, the people surnamed Zhaowu Jiu were all scared, as soon as they heard about the war, they were naturally scared, and when they knew that this time the Anxi army came to the river, only fighting big food and anti-Tang forces, they would naturally not be so afraid." Xiao Quzhi smiled.
"That's just as well." Yama thought in his heart, then he had to win.
Xiao Quzhi frowned and thought for a while: "It's that we are very troublesome, if you encounter a large group of great food cavalry retreating westward, you go and tell the queen and ask them to find a way to save their lives." ”
The prince of Yama was stunned for a moment, and said with a look of regret: "It's been more than half gone, isn't it a pity?" ”
Xiao Quzhi shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "This is also something that can't be helped." You go and tell them that if this happens, tell them to reveal their identity as soon as possible, so that they can keep them safe. As long as they don't die, maybe we can get them back. ”
As soon as Yama thought about it, he immediately understood, and ran to the middle of the team to talk to King Kang. Xiao Quzhi greeted Amir Jiang and Gu Xiaojun and the others discussed several emergency plans together.
Sure enough, I was prepared, no, when it was almost evening, something really happened.
Xiao Quai, who was far away, found that a large food cavalry of two or three hundred people was galloping towards him, Xiao Quai's heart tightened, and he immediately reminded everyone to be on guard. Then take the team to the side of the road as much as possible, Xiao Qubing and the other four "big cannibals" walked a little ahead, and opened a distance of about fifty steps from the team.
I thought it would be the same as the teams of more than ten people I met before, both sides were on horses, and they walked opposite each other almost in a flash. In such a short period of time, the other party is busy on the road, and he shouldn't pay too much attention to his side.
At the beginning, things were indeed as Xiao Quzhi expected, when the two sides were more than a hundred steps apart, the other party found them. Some of the Great Eaters looked at them curiously, but they didn't pay much attention to it, and continued to keep their heads down. Just when everyone thought they had escaped, Xiao Qubing noticed that several big food cavalrymen had been staring at him and Gu Xiaojun's mount. At this time, the distance between the two sides was less than thirty paces.
Xiao Quzhi chuckled in his heart, and reminded Gu Xiaojun and the others to pay attention in an inaudible voice. As soon as he finished speaking, he heard two people in the opposing cavalry shouting excitedly, and the surrounding big food cavalry turned their eyes to Xiao Quai's four people, showing puzzled or fierce expressions.
"Exposed, act as planned!" Xiao Quzhi slammed the horse's belly, and the little red horse stretched its body, like a red lightning bolt rushing forward. While the left hand was taking the spear from the Victory Hook, the right hand had already drawn two feathered arrows from Hulu. As soon as he raised his hand, he threw it fiercely, and with the sound of breaking the wind, the feather arrow quickly crossed the distance of twenty paces, hitting the chests of the two who were shouting.
The two big eater cavalrymen who recognized the Arab war horse ridden by Xiao Hongma and Gu Xiaojun didn't finish their words, and before they finished speaking, they stabbed one arrow in the left chest and one arrow in the right chest, killing one and seriously injuring the other.
The battle started without warning in an instant, and after throwing two feather arrows with a flick of his hand, Xiao Qubing had already rushed to the edge of the Great Food Cavalry. Several big food cavalry also frantically beat their horses to meet them, Xiao Quzhi roared, and the big gun with the white pole in his hand danced. It's like a white grinding disc, covering the entire front, back, left and right, tightly and impermeable.
Several of the big cannibal cavalry who came up were suddenly pierced or cut a blood groove in their throats, ears, eyes, and even their mouths. If you fall crookedly, you will fall off the horse, and you will not live.
Almost at the same moment, Gu Xiaojun, Li Ergou and Tao Sanhe, who had already flattened their halves and followed closely behind Xiao Quai, stabbed fiercely towards the big food cavalry that was coming towards them. Amir Jiang and the others, who were fifty paces behind, also reacted at the first time, opened their bows and shot, and shot arrows in a row, and in the blink of an eye, arrows rained down.
The feather arrows arrived faster than Gu Xiaojun's horse lance, and the big cavalry in front of them suddenly fell a large piece. Several Ning Yuanguo Tuojie and Cao Alanyan were not very skilled in cavalry and archery, but they each stood by the side of the cavalry with spears and horses.
This group of cavalry was defeated almost instantly, and lost twenty or thirty men in an instant, and the cavalry was in chaos. However, most of them were fighting the Tang army for the first time, and for several years they had been in the middle of the river, invincible, and all of them were extremely arrogant. Such a blow only provokes their ferocity even more, coupled with religious fanaticism, and they are all fierce and not afraid of death.
After a brief riot, they quickly showed a high level of riding and fighting. The group close to Xiao Quai's group frantically brandished their scimitars, holding their spears high to cut the four pretending "big cannibals" into meat sauce; The big cavalry on the other side of the team raised the round shield on his left forearm, parryed the oncoming feathered arrows, and rushed towards Amir Jiang and the others who were releasing arrows in the back.
Xiao Qu was sick and rode first, the big gun danced like a poisonous dragon, front and back, left and right, stained and died, touched and died, the blocker was easy, and there was no one in front of the horse. All the big food cavalry who were close to him within five feet of him all ended up being opened in the upper three ways, and the blood mist burst out, and they fell off their horses.
Gu Xiaojun followed closely behind Xiao Quai, and the horse lance in his hand drew a large semicircle in front of him, and swept away three scimitars. The horse lance stabbed into the mouth of a large food cavalryman, and with the elasticity of the lance, directly beat half of the man's face to shreds. The blade was castrated, and then flicked into the throat of a large eater next to him. The big food cavalry hurriedly raised his knife to block the lance, but Li Ergou behind Gu Xiaojun took advantage of it, stabbed the center with a lance, and fell off the horse.
Amir Jiang and the others saw hundreds of Great Food Cavalry rushing towards them, and they did not like to fight, but simply controlled their horses with their legs, turned in one direction, and galloped diagonally towards the gravel wasteland on both sides of the road. The Great Eater cavalry divided into more than 80 cavalry to chase after them, and more than a dozen people brandished scimitars and spears and rushed to the back of the line, hugging the family of King Kangguo who were trembling.
Queen Kang, Mino Naji, held her son tightly in her arms, and the strong maternal love made her, bursting out with the greatest courage in an instant, she shouted loudly in Persian: "I am King Kang, intercepted by thieves in the Tang Dynasty, fortunately I met the Arab warriors, and I was saved......"
Before the words were finished, the dozen or so Great Food Cavalry were close to more than ten steps, lifted the reins of their horses, deviated from the direction, surrounded the six of them, and looked at them curiously.
Yinonahime suddenly felt that her heart was about to jump out, her legs were a little weak, and tears flowed down her eyes.
