After simply packing up their things, Xu Xingxia and the others hurried overnight. There were only four people who left Pearl Sea and headed south, Xu Xingxia, Wang Xia, Mao Thirteen, and Tessna. Tesna can now ride alone. Within the range of the Black Feather Arrow, Xu Xingxia was absolutely not worried about her escaping, unless she really wanted to die. As it turned out, she didn't want to die.

Lin Dan Khan's pursuers were behind, and Xu Xingxia could even feel his breath. Lin Dan Khan has always considered himself a hero of the savannah, and three women, including Tessna, Uyunna, and Namu Zhong, should be his forbidden belly. Now that Tesna has been snatched away, this is a living slap in the face, and he will definitely not give up easily. Speaking of which, Lin Dan Khan is also in his twenties, and it is the time when his blood is strong, and he is angry at the crown.

If it were someone else and chased to the Pearl Sea, it was estimated that there would be no heart to continue chasing. The Pearl Sea is already thousands of miles away from Naturalization City, and as the great leader of the Tumut tribe, it is very inappropriate to lead troops to such a distant place. However, Xu Xingxia believed that with Lin Danhan's surname, he would definitely continue to chase until Zhenyuan Pass. Therefore, they cannot slow down after leaving the Pearl Sea.

The four of them set off overnight, crossed the desert, crossed the Gobi Desert, and went south non-stop. Three days later, Zhenyuan Pass was finally in sight. About one hundred and fifty miles north of Zhenyuan Pass, Xu Xingxia encountered the cavalry unit of the white-clothed army heading north. The four forces were mixed together for a total strength of more than 1,200 men. They received Xu Xingxia's order to go north to meet Xu Xingxia. After the two sides converged, they all returned to Zhenyuanguan.

When he saw Zhenyuanguan, Xu Xingxia's hanging heart was finally completely put down. His dangerous mission is finally over. He returned to his own turf, to the arms of the White Army. To put it bluntly, there is no safer place in this world than Zhenyuanguan.

With 5,000 white-clothed troops and strong fortifications at Zhenyuanguan, Lin Dan Khan had nothing to fear even if he led 50,000 iron lance cavalry to catch up. If Lin Dan Khan came to attack strongly, he didn't mind letting Lin Dan Khan make a mess here and withdraw in disgrace. With a white-clothed army of more than 1,000 people, he was able to inflict heavy losses on tens of thousands of Tartar cavalry, and now that the number of white-clothed troops has increased fivefold, what else is there to fear?

Of course, fierce battles, if they can be avoided, should be avoided as much as possible. After all, the current Zhenyuanguan is still in the midst of intense construction and has not yet been fully completed. Only a small part of the fortifications can already be seen in rudiments. Most of the other fortifications have only just begun to lay the foundations. If a large-scale war breaks out and the war is protracted, it will definitely delay the progress of the construction of Zhenyuanguan. This is completely unnecessary.

Lin Dan Khan's lair is in the distant Naturalization City, almost two thousand miles away from Ningxia Town. At such a long distance, Lin Dan Khan would definitely not be able to stay for a long time. What he has to do is to let Lin Dan Khan retreat in the face of difficulties and avoid the occurrence of large-scale wars. The current Lin Dan Khan is hot-headed and tendonous for a while to make such a rash move. When he calms down, he will find that it is absolutely not safe for him to stay here.

In addition, the relationship between Xu Xingxia and Lin Dan Khan is also more delicate. Lin Dan Khan was different from the other Tartar leaders. In general, Lin Dan Khan is relatively pro-Ming. His ideal was to unify the entire Mongolian steppe, and for this reason, he actively repaired relations with the Ming court. The Tumut tribe under his jurisdiction has a relatively harmonious relationship with the Ming army. For the Ming court, it is also necessary to have a good relationship with Lin Dan Khan. After all, no one wants to see a war raging on the border, does it? Fighting costs money and kills, so if you can avoid it, try to avoid it!

More importantly, Lin Dan Khan also shoulders the heavy responsibility of deterring the Houjin Tartars. The most important strategy for the rise of the Later Jin Tartars was to win over the Korqin tribe of Mongolia. In real history, the strength of the Houjin Tartars was greatly enhanced after they formed a full alliance with the Horqin tribe. If it were not for the cavalry and war horses of the Horqin tribe, it would have been impossible for the Houjin Tatars, who were themselves from the fishing and hunting tribes, to control Liaodong in such a short period of time.

According to Wang Qinian's intelligence, this Horqin tribe is quite disobedient. I don't know why, this tribe is quite hostile to the existence of Lin Dan Khan. For the co-optation of wild boar skin tartars, the Horqin tribe showed considerable cooperation. If it weren't for Lin Dan Khan's coercion, the Horqin tribe might have fallen to the Houjin Tartars in an all-round way. If he beats Lin Dan Khan down, the one who gets the benefit will definitely be the hateful Houjin wild boar skin.

For this reason, he couldn't beat Lin Dan Khan too hard. Before the strength of the white-clothed army could not deter the Horqin tribe, he still had to borrow the hand of Lin Dan Khan to block the rise of the Houjin Tartar. If he crossed over to this world, he would let the Houjin Tartars continue to rise, continue to defeat the Ming court, and even finally enter the Central Plains, so that the land of China would sink for three hundred years. He, a traverser, was too much of a failure. This is absolutely impossible.

"My lord, where have you been? Why didn't you say anything and quietly left? Yu Lijun and the others all asked with concern. Xu Xingxia left quietly, making them worried. As the core pillar of the White Army, if Xu Xingxia has any accidents, the entire White Army will be finished, and everyone who depends on the existence of the White Army will also be finished.

"I took her." Xu Xingxia pointed at Tesna and said indifferently.

"Who is she?" Yu Lijun and the others squinted at Tesna, very puzzled. Tesna's name, they had all heard of it, but none of them had ever seen her in person. No matter how they thought about it, they couldn't connect Xu Xingxia and Tesna.

"Little woman Tessna, I've seen you." Tesna actually tried her best to pretend to be gentle, and said softly in pure Chinese. Her Chinese, after special practice, is a little stiff when she speaks, but her pronunciation is very standard.

"What? Are you Tessna? No matter how gentle Tessna's response was, no matter how pure her Chinese was, as soon as she spoke, the people around her were frightened. In fact, her name alone is enough to surprise everyone around her. God, Xu Xingxia actually went deep into the prairie and captured Tessna! They would not be naïve, thinking that Tesna and Xu Xingxia invited back as guests must have used force in the middle.

"Your thousands of households have traveled thousands of miles to Lanxing Gorge and invited me to come to Zhenyuan Pass as a guest. I couldn't refuse, so I had to follow. In front of Xu Xingxia, Tesna deliberately pretended to be pitiful and obedient, and her speech was also soft-voiced and soft-spoken, completely lacking the condescending and domineering appearance of the priestess in the past.

A large group of white-clothed army officers around, you look at me, I look at you, with a puzzled face, I don't know which play is staged between her and Xu Xingxia. It stands to reason that as Tessna, after being captured by Xu Xingxia, even if she doesn't want to die or live, she should at least put on a non-violent and non-cooperative attitude! After all, the two sides are enemies, and when they meet, they will fight to the death! How can anyone give in so easily?

However, looking at Tesna's appearance now, she looks like a little daughter-in-law sent to the door, docile and well-behaved, and a bird is like a person. If it weren't for Xu Xingxia and her showing that she was Tessna, many people would still have the illusion that she was a Han woman. However, Xu Xingxia didn't seem to have any reaction to Tesna's gentle words. He understood that Tesna was deliberately seducing himself, so he wouldn't be fooled, as if he hadn't seen anything.

Xu Xingxia beckoned Wang Qinian to come over and asked him to arrange Tessna's residence. Tessna's status is very special, and she cannot be treated as an ordinary prisoner, and there is no suitable place for her to live in the barracks of the Black Mountain Battalion. The only one who has the ability to deal with her is Jinyiwei. With the ability of Jin Yiwei, naturally anyone can be placed, and Tessna can't play any tricks.

"My lord, I'm leaving! When I'm not with you, you have to take care of yourself! I'll come back to see you when I have time! When Tesna was leaving, she didn't forget to say goodbye to Xu Xingxia. She successfully gave people the illusion that her relationship with Xu Xingxia had become familiar to the point of surpassing ordinary friends. If she were not a Tatar priestess, most of the high-ranking officers of the White Army would have misunderstood whether she was the future mistress or not.

Yu Lijun couldn't help but say, "My lord, it's too risky for you to do this. ”

Xu Xingxia nodded and said sincerely: "Yes, it is indeed a bit risky. When I set off, I didn't feel it, but on the way back, I deeply realized that running thousands of miles is indeed not something ordinary people can do. I won't be so hasty next time. ”

Yu Lijun wanted to speak and stopped. Xu Xingxia has already admitted his mistakes so sincerely, and he has nothing to say. It's definitely a good thing to be able to get Tesna back. With his thinking, he can also understand Xu Xingxia's purpose. Catching Tesna is equivalent to having a comprehensive understanding of the situation in the savannah. Tessna's grasp of the situation is much more comprehensive and accurate than Wang Qinian's. Of course, the premise is that Tesna has to tell the truth and not make a ghost in it.

After a slight pause, Xu Xingxia said, "Lin Danhan is still chasing behind." ”

Yu Lijun's face changed slightly, and he asked in a deep voice, "Lin Dan Khan?" How many people are there? ”

Xu Xingxia thought about it and said: "I don't know the specific number of people for the time being, but it is estimated that it will not be less than three thousand." In fact, he and I, one in the front and the other in the back, never met. However, I can be sure that he is now coming towards Zhenyuan Pass. ”
