There was no danger to spend the night. In fact, the white-clothed swordsman had also thought about killing him again at night, but his pride prevented this from happening. What he didn't know was that in a few years, he would regret the decision and his bowels would be blue.

Unlike the white-clothed swordsman, who wanted to save face, the Anxi Guards left this place of right and wrong as if they fled at dawn without grace, and even ate breakfast on horseback. At the same time, he took all the property looted in this camp for several months, took eleven prisoners, and led hundreds of horses to Yizhou.

At this time, Xiao Quzhi rode on a sweaty horse that was quite a god, which was a trophy specially awarded to him by Gao Xianzhi. According to Cao Alanyanli, this horse was obtained when he robbed an embassy of the Eastern Cao Kingdom, and it is estimated that it was dedicated to the emperor or a nobleman in the court. Anyway, the mission is gone, and this BMW has naturally become a trophy of the Anxi Guard. This horse was even better than the one Gao Xianzhi was riding, but Gao Xianzhi gave it to Xiao Quai.

Xiao Qubing knew what he meant, and he didn't shirk it, and rode on the horse proudly. He turned his shoulders and found that he didn't feel much pain anymore, and the three sword marks on his chest, back and back, as well as the wounds on his forearm, had already scabbed over, and he was itching slightly at the moment, as if he was about to be completely healed. Xiao Quzhi has to admire this evolved body, even the self-healing ability is not ordinarily strong, how can it be so fast as an ordinary person? This is simply the biggest capital to fight everywhere and charge into battle in the future, how can he not be happy.

Soon after passing through the Moheyan moraine, the road ahead became easy to walk, and the cavalry immediately hurried to their horses, and arrived at Yizhou (present-day Hami) before noon. As the highest military and civil governor of Anxi, Gao Xianzhi immediately issued an order, with Cao Alanyan and Kang Shifen as guides, to thoroughly investigate and eliminate the horse bandits controlled by Snake Tooth and Snake Tooth remote control, and dig out the mastermind behind the scenes.

What Gao Xianzhi didn't expect was that it was precisely because of this order that in the next four years, on this thousands of miles of Silk Road, the Anxi Army and this dark force fought each other, fought wits and strength, and staged scenes of singing and crying legends of the green forest. Until the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, of course, this is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.

There was no delay in Illinois, and the Anxi Guards set off anew. Taking advantage of Gao Xianzhi's free time to teach riding, Xiao Quzhi asked, "Zhongcheng, are you in a hurry to go to Qiuzi?" ”

Gao Xianzhi said: "Naturally, I won't hide it from you, I received information that Da Shi is plotting with Jiuguo Hu to capture the four towns of Anxi, of course I have to rush back as soon as possible to make preparations." ”

Xiao Qu was stunned for a moment, and then he understood in an instant: "Zhongcheng, if what I said is correct, this information was said by Luo Quanjie, the king of Gulu, right?" ”

Gao Xianzhi was stunned: "Indeed." ”

Xiao Quzhi smiled and asked Gao Xianzhi to call Duan Xiushi and Wang Chengen, and then said: "Zhongcheng, this bone king Luo Quanjie lied about the military situation, he should be killed!" ”

Duan Xiushi's eyes widened, and he asked with a solemn expression, "He lied about the military situation, how do you know?" The meaning of the subtext is: "At that time, you were still cultivating in the mountains, how do you know what is happening below?" ”

Xiao Quzhi understood what he meant, and he didn't distinguish it, but said, "Zhongcheng, do you remember what I told you about the history of the Great Food the day before yesterday?" ”

Gao Xianzhi said: "Naturally, I remember that you said that the two brothers, Abbasid and Mansur, grabbed the fruits of victory and established the Black Clothes Food. ”

Xiao Quzhi said: "Then I will explain the rest of the matter in detail, and you will be clear." Although the black-clothed food was established, its internal stability was not stable, and the remnants of the white-clothed food were still causing chaos everywhere; And among the people, there are also many big cannibals who do not obey the rule of the white-clothed food and the black-clothed food, and this is the reason for the sectarian differences, which will be discussed later.

Just a year ago, there were fires everywhere in the Hezhong area, with 30,000 people rioting in Angola alone. They surrounded and defeated the army of 10,000 people in black, and the first general under the command of the governor of Khorasan, Qi Yad, surrounded and destroyed it by borrowing troops from Anguo. Soon after, when the army of Hekhelin arrived, he was killed because the king of Anguo refused to convert to their teachings and secretly asked for help from the Tang Dynasty.

This accident actually happened last year, after the high school Cheng defeated Shi Guo and returned to the school. After the king of Anguo was killed, there was a great chaos in the river, Kangguo, Miguo, and Shi Guo rebelled one after another, and were suppressed successively, and the king of Mi and Shiguo were also killed by Da Shi. After returning to Anxi, it is not difficult to inquire about these news.

As a result, Posilin put down chaos everywhere and slaughtered the city everywhere. It was at the end of last summer that the Gulu Kingdom was defeated by another general under the Hepo Silin faction, and the Gulu king, Luo Quanjie, fled alone to Xiba Khana before coming to Chang'an.

Zhongcheng, think about it, Luo Quanjie's country was captured by the Great Cannibal, and he ran to Datang alone to ask for help. If you don't say some amazing words, how can you get Datang to send troops to drive away the big cannibals for him? That's why he lied about the military situation, saying, 'All the beards are angry, and they lure the big appetite to attack the four towns together'! ”

Gao Xianzhi was mentally prepared, thought about it secretly, and bowed his head and said nothing. The more Duan Xiushi listened, the more frightened he became, and he said with a face full of disbelief: "Are you serious? ”

Xiao Quzhi nodded: "Naturally, I dare to make a military order." These things, when they reach Qiuzi, send someone to investigate them carefully, and they will know whether what I said is true or false. ”

Duan Xiushi saw that he was serious, and these news were very reasonable, but he couldn't help but say again: "Then how do you know?" ”

Xiao Qu's illness is a little broken, why do you always hold on to this, I really can't explain this. Fortunately, Gao Xianzhi came out to relieve the siege: "Chenggong, don't ask again, these things will be clear when you get to Anxi, and you will naturally find it clear when you ask a few Hu merchants of the Nine Kingdoms." Compared with King Gulu, of course, he prefers to believe the auxiliary ministers, he has no reason to lie, but Luo Quanjie has. From this point of view, Luo Quanjie is indeed selfish, he wants to provoke my Tang Dynasty to send troops to the river, help him restore the country and help him avenge! ”

Xiao Quzhi smiled with satisfaction, and said, "I still know a secret." The establishment of the Black Food was entirely dependent on the power of Khorasan, and the Governor of Khorasan and Posilin were the first contributors to the establishment of the Black Food. As a result, Posilin was suspicious of the two brothers, Abbasid and Mansour.

More than a year earlier, the Abbasids had instigated the generals stationed in Samad to attack and defeat him. Afterwards, the Abbasids dismissed the general from his post and put him to death to dispel Poselin's suspicions. And Posilin was silent on the surface, but he knew it well in his heart.

Just imagine the situation of Bo Silin, the cannibalism under his rule is not attached, the nine kingdoms of Zhaowu in the river are in turmoil, and there are even unwarranted suspicions of the lord who want to take his life. At this time, how could he have the ability and idea to attack the four towns of Anxi? ”

Gao Xianzhi nodded in agreement and said, "Anyway, it's always right to return to Qiuzi early. Auxiliary, let me see how you are learning to ride? ”

After speaking, he clamped the horse's belly, and the sweat and blood under his crotch stretched out his body, rushing forward like red lightning. Xiao Quzhi shouted hello in his heart, his legs were also lightly clamped, and the BMW under his crotch felt the power, hissed, accelerated instantly, and chased after him.

Anyone can also see that the two sweaty and bloody horses Xiao Quzhi rode much more than Gao Xianzhi, but no matter how Xiao Quzhi chased after him, he just couldn't outrun Gao Xianzhi. Gao Xianzhi galloped forward for four or five miles, turned around and saw Xiao Quai's illness chasing farther and farther, smiled and slowed down the horse's speed in front of him to catch up, and then carefully explained the details of riding.

After Gao Xianzhi's careful teaching, Xiao Quzhi's riding skills have improved by leaps and bounds. By the time it was time for the camp, the two of them were racing, and Xiao Quzhi was barely able to keep up with Gao Xianzhi's speed. Of course, this is the light that the mount is slightly better than Gao Xianzhi.

Jumping off the horse, Xiao Quzhi found that the necks of the two horses were soaked, and when he touched it with his hand, it was as red as blood, and it was really sweating like blood. Listening to Gao Xianzhi, his Feihong, on a good road section, can really travel thousands of miles a day. Xiao Quai's horse should be slightly better, if Xiao Quai's riding skills are better, there is no problem in traveling more than 1,000 miles a day.

Xiao Quzhi stroked its slender neck, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it. The sweaty BMW also looked at Xiao Quai's illness meekly with a pair of big black eyes, and turned his neck from time to time, rubbing his head against Xiao Quai's arm, and his expression was indescribably close.

"The assistant minister really has a fate with this horse." Gao Xianzhi said with a smile: "This horse has not yet been named, can the auxiliary minister think of a name?" ”

Xiao Quzhi thought for a moment and said, "Just call it Little Red Horse!" ”

"Huh?" Gao Xianzhi raised his eyebrows, very contemptuous, and thought: "It's really uneducated, the red horse is called the little red horse, and if there is a black horse in the future, it will be called the little black horse, and the flower horse will be called the little flower horse, and then it will be a little green horse, a little white horse......"

Ignoring Gao Xianzhi's contempt, Xiao Quzhi whistled at the little red horse, and then called out "little red horse". The horse seemed to understand, and excitedly arched his head gently over Xiao Quai's body. There was a long hiss, and a cheerful sound was made, which made Xiao Qu sick so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. Gao Xianzhi looked strange, sweaty BMW was notoriously short-tempered, why was he so docile and so intimate in front of him? This Xiao Qu is really popular, not only popular with people, but also popular with horses!

Unlike Gao Xianzhi's face full of jealousy, Xiao Quzhi is really happy, the horse is the second life of the knight, with this little red horse, where can he go? The world is so big, let me gallop.

Because it was no longer a moraine Gobi, and there were post stations all over the way, the marching speed of the Anxi Guards became very fast. On average, they walk more than 200 miles a day. Gao Xianzhi was in a hurry, and he was willing to enter the post station to rest until it was dark. It was not until the afternoon of the third day, when it was still more than an hour before dark, that the Anxi Guards came to a small castle built on a red earth hill. Gao Xianzhi ordered to go into the fort to rest and go to bed early.

Xiao Qu was puzzled, and pulled Gu Xiaojun to ask. Gu Xiaojun had a bitter expression: "It's not because of the volcano in front of you, it's so hot that it looks like it's on fire." There is no way to pass at this time now, so Zhongcheng wants us to rest here early, and we will have to hurry before dawn tomorrow morning. Even so, tomorrow will be very hard, I am afraid that I will have to sweat a few liters, and people who are in poor health will not be able to pass this volcano at all. If he broke his leg that day, Shi Xiaoshu had to stay here and wait for the injury to heal. If you don't sweat through your wounds, you won't live. ”

Volcano? Xiao Qu was stunned for a while before he reacted, the volcano that Gu Xiaojun said should be the Flaming Mountain in Journey to the West. What he didn't know was that in fact, the Mohe Yanmoi he had just crossed a few days ago also had a name in Journey to the West, which was the Quicksand River. Xiao Quzhi was not impressed by the Flame Mountain, and asked curiously, "Is this volcano really hot?" ”

Gu Xiaojun looked contemptuous: "It's not very hot anymore, it's so hot that it looks like it's going to burn." You don't know that this volcanic mountain is red and hot, and there is no grass for two hundred miles from east to west. It is the harsh winter wax moon, other places are covered with snow, and the volcano is still very hot. Legend has it that there was once a fire dragon here, and after being killed, the blood stained the entire mountain, and the mountain became hot all year round because of the blood of the fire dragon. ”

Wow, it seems that it is necessary to popularize science to them, this volcano (Flame Mountain) is obviously caused by Sun Monkey overturning the gossip furnace of Taishang Laojun, and a few fire bricks and furnace fires fell from the sky. Return the fire dragon, why don't you just say the fire demon? It's all a Western fantasy series anyway.

Well, down with Western magic, Eastern mythology rules the whole world!
