The heavy city gate creaked, pushed open a crack, and a figure Shi Shiran walked out of the crack in the door, without armor, with his hands behind his back, and walked slowly and methodically step by step towards Alpha, who was showing off his might in front of the formation. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Alpha held the knife and smiled smugly at the corner of his eye, then frowned again. This person is obviously not here to compete, so he is here to surrender, but why is it so awkward? Looking at his head held high, there was no taste of surrender at all, but there was a feeling of an emperor inspecting his territory.

Alpha was a little confused, and the Sassanid army besieging the city was also a little inexplicable, the people in front stopped cheering, and quietly looked at Tu Hu, who was getting closer and closer, and the people behind were still cheering, but slowly they also felt a strange feeling, and closed their mouths unnaturally. An eerie tranquility was like an invisible ripple, with Tu Hu as the center, slowly rippling, gradually turning the Sassanid cheers into silence.

Tu Hu walked across the suspension bridge unhurriedly, walked to a place ten steps away from Alpha and stood still, stretched out his hand and hooked his finger at Alpha, and said lightly: "Come on, let me see how many pounds you weigh." ”

Alpha couldn't understand Chinese, looked at Tu Hu blankly, glanced back at the two attendants, and one of the attendants on the left looked at it, urged the horse to rush to Tu Hu, pointed the scimitar in his hand at Tu Hu, and shouted condescendingly: "Who is coming?" Get down on your knees and talk back! ”

Tu Hu didn't understand Persian, but he saw the meaning from the squire's look, he sneered, and his body, which was originally as steady as a mountain, suddenly moved, and the distance of two steps away was instantaneous, and he didn't see any movements, but he just stretched out a hand very casually, grabbed the squire's ankle, the squire was shocked, and subconsciously raised the knife in his hand and cut it down, but unfortunately his reaction was too slow, the knife was just raised, and the whole person had been torn off the horse by Tu Hu, and fell to the ground with a plop, He was so broken that he threw the knife in his hand.

This attendant is also a person who has experienced a hundred battles, followed Alpha from the sea of blood in the corpse mountain, as soon as he lost the first hand, although he was surprised, but he was not flustered, as soon as he landed, he rolled with the trend, and rolled away from the distance, although he rolled all over the mud, but rolled out of Tu Hu's attack range, and then quickly got up, turned half a circle, stared at Tu Hu vigilantly, and at the same time, he saw the war knife that fell on the ground out of the corner of his eye, and hurriedly went over to pick it up, pointed straight at Tu Hu, and supported the crooked helmet with one hand.

His reaction was not unpleasant, but he was thrown too hard by Tu Hu just now, he was a little dizzy, although he put on a good stance, but he involuntarily staggered back two steps, looking like he was drunk. Compared to his nervousness, Tu Hu stood there without further movement, just put his hands behind his back and looked at him quietly, as if watching an ignorant naughty boy playing.

Compared with Tu Hu's calmness, this fierce soldier is very embarrassed.

The Yue soldiers and Aksumite soldiers who were watching the battle at the head of the city couldn't help but laugh when they saw that Tu Hu had smashed the Sassanids as soon as he made a move, playing the other party like monkeys, and the originally tense atmosphere was suddenly relieved.

Alpha's face immediately sank, he didn't say a word, he immediately whistled, shook the rope, kicked the horse's belly, the war horse suddenly started, rushed towards Tu Hu, the scimitar in his hand raised high, and chopped down with the sound of the wind.

Tu Hu's eyes tightened, and just as the war horse was about to rush to him, he suddenly took two steps, and in an instant, he moved from the right side of the alpha to the left side, and the front hooves of the war horse almost grazed his body and ran over. Alpha had a flower in front of him, the enemy had lost his trace, and a knife with all his strength also missed, and before he could come back to his senses, he was suddenly pushed by someone on his waist, and he couldn't sit on the horse's back, and he barely struggled twice, or fell off the horse, but he was quick to react, flew off the horse, put his left hand on the saddle and followed the war horse on the ground for two steps, and flew on the horse again, so he didn't lose his ugly.

The war horse ran out of more than ten steps, and Alpha grabbed the rope, circled the horse's head, and looked at Tu Hu in shock and anger. Tu Hu stood in place, spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders, and made a very sorry look, causing another burst of laughter from the city.

Alpha was furious. I didn't expect this stupid-looking big guy to be a master, first as soon as he made a move, he threw his bodyguard into the mud, and now he almost pushed himself down, although he was not thrown down with his superb equestrian skills, but he had a horse and a knife, and he was actually pushed off the horse by an enemy with his bare hands, which was undoubtedly a great humiliation for a warrior like him.

Alpha's face turned red, he tightened his grip on the war horse, and the war horse in his hand pointed directly at Tu Hu, and shouted in a deep voice: "Barbarian, take out your weapon, I want to duel with you." After waiting for a while, he saw that Tu Hu was indifferent, just looking at him calmly, and then he remembered that this person couldn't understand Persian, so he quickly changed to stiff Chinese and said it again.

Alpha was not familiar with Chinese, and it was very stiff and blunt to speak, but Tu Hu understood. He didn't say anything, just clapped his hands, and then beckoned at Alpha, which means obviously, Lao Tzu can deal with you empty-handed. Although there was no trace of arrogance on his face, the arrogance that came out of his bones made Alpha angry.

"Since you are looking for death, Hugh blames Prince Ben for not following the rules." Alpha roared in Persian, the back of the knife jerked the horse's buttocks, and at the same time kicked the toes violently, the war horse was in pain, and the man stood up, hissing "sighing", and then rushed towards Tu Hu like a splash of wind. The furious Alpha roared wildly, raised his sword high again, riveted his strength, and vowed to split Tu Hu in half with a single sword to avenge the humiliation just now.

Tu Hu stood motionless, but his eyes were staring at Alpha's eyes, his gaze was like substance, crossing a distance of more than a dozen steps, and Alpha couldn't help but be startled, just such a mistaken kung fu, the war horse had rushed to Tu Hu's face, Alpha bit his tongue, condensed his mind, shouted, and slashed with a knife.

Almost at the same time, Tu Hu suddenly let out a loud shout, stretched his figure, rushed forward, and rushed straight to the alpha on horseback. Although Alpha exhaled with him, his shout forcibly suppressed Alpha's roar, which shocked Alpha's heart, and there was a trace of imperceptible hesitation in his raised arms, and it was this slightest hesitation that made him lose his last chance.

Tu Hu's huge body collided like the wind, his left hand was raised, just to support Alpha's wrist with all his might, his right hand was forked, he grabbed Alpha's belt, exhaled, and lifted him up. Although Alpha clamped the horse's belly with his legs, but in front of Tu Hu's divine power, his efforts did not have any effect at all, the war horse rushed over, but he was lifted up by Tu Hu, his right hand was in a huge pain, and he could no longer hold the war knife in his hand, and then he was smashed to the ground by Tu Hu.

This time he smashed too hard, not only smashed into dust, but also almost smashed Alpha to the back, his eyes were dark, a mouthful of blood spurted out, his left hand in vain grabbed Tu Hu's shoulder armor, instinctively wanted to throw Tu Hu to the ground, but he couldn't exert any strength, the whole person leaned softly on Tu Hu's body, like a helpless weak woman.

The two attendants watching the battle were shocked when they saw it, and they all roared in unison, galloped with a step, and one urged the horse to rush straight, shaking the spear in his hand, and stabbing at Tu Hu. Tu Hu didn't look back, as soon as he twisted his body, he picked up Alpha's tall body, threw it at the attendant on the horse, took a big stride, stepped in front of the attendant on foot in a few steps, snatched his hands into the attendant's arms, twisted his left hand, snatched the war knife in his hand, slapped his right hand on the attendant's chest, turned around and threw himself at the attendant on horseback.

The squire on foot almost didn't have time to feel the pain in his wrist, but he felt a stagnation in his chest, as if he had been hit by a galloping war horse, and even his breath was stagnant, he rushed out two steps, stopped his steps, and looked down at his chest, only to see that his cuirass was intact, not even a trace of abrasion, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't breathe. Suddenly, my throat was sweet, and a stream of blood spurted out, all sprinkled on the dry loess, which looked shocking.

He raised his head blankly, watched his companion throw away the spear for fear of stabbing the alpha, opened his arms to catch the flying alpha, fell off the horse, and before he could land, Tu Hu had already arrived like a lion, and kicked his companion's neck in the air, and the companion's neck twisted into a weird angle in response, and a stream of blood spurted out, and the alpha fell to the ground, followed by Tu Hu, who was caught up, and trampled under his feet.

He looked at Tu Hu who was standing with his hands in a daze, and he couldn't understand what kind of warrior this was, and he actually defeated the three of them easily in a short time with his bare hands. Alpha is a famous warrior in Sasani, and the two of them are also fierce soldiers who have experienced countless fierce battles, why is it that they have no power to fight back in front of this person like children?

Before he could figure it out, he fell limply, lying on top of the loess, the sticky blood flowing freely, moistening the ground beneath him.

Tu Hu defeated Alpha with an astonishing speed, trampled him under his feet, and killed two hundred warriors by the way, so fast that everyone did not come back to their senses, there was silence above and below the city, there was silence between heaven and earth, and even the clouds in the sky seemed to stop flowing.

Sun Shao was overjoyed, he knew that there would be no problem in dealing with Alpha with Tu Hu's force, after all, this big man's hard work was something he could see every day, in order to keep up his strength, he didn't marry a wife and have children until now, in order to cultivate both inside and outside, but he didn't expect Tu Hu to win so easily, and the battle was solved in a few breaths, and in such a fierce way.

After a while, Sun Shaoyi patted Ao Lei, who had opened his mouth wide, and scolded with a smile: "What are you doing in a daze, don't beat the drum to cheer, and take someone to pick up Tu Hu." Ao Lei came back to his senses, and hurriedly raised his hand and shouted: "Drumming-" While shouting, he flew down the city wall, rushed to the city gate with three hundred tiger guards prepared in the city gate hole, and squeaked open the city gate.

At the same time, Ding Feng also raised the battle flag in his hand and let out a long roar: "Crossbowmen prepare—"

With a sound of "swish", the crossbowmen preparing for battle at the head of the city picked up the bows and crossbows in their hands, pointed obliquely upward, and were ready to attack.

Under the city, Shapur, who was watching the battle from a distance, suddenly exclaimed: "Not good, Alpha is in danger!" Without waiting for Ardashir to react, he urged his war horse to rush out, and the attendants who followed him immediately rushed out without thinking, and in a moment, more than a dozen war horses spread their hooves and galloped towards Tu Hu.

Tu Hu sneered, stepped on the foot of Alpha's chest and stomped hard, picked up a war knife next to him, volleyed it in his hand, bent down and picked up another war knife, with the double knife in his hand, did not retreat but advanced, screamed wildly and rushed towards Shapur and the others who were standing up, and slashed at Shapur who rushed to the front.

Shapur was shocked, lowered his head, and let Tu Hu slash a knife, the war knife in his hand quickly slashed between Tu Hu's chest and abdomen, only to hear a "bang" sound, sparks straight up, it turned out that Tu Hu's left-handed knife was protecting his right ribs, just to frame Shapur's insidious knife, followed by the war knife back, cutting off the thigh of a knight who followed closely.

Tu Hu showed his might, flashing and moving between more than a dozen war horses, flying with two knives, cutting off the three knights off the horse, and the knight who rushed over circled the horse in the distance, recalling the thrill of passing by with Tu Hu just now, they couldn't help but sweat like pulp, they looked back with palpitations, but saw Tu Hu dancing with two knives, rushing over like a whirlwind, rushing to the back of the knight horse, suddenly soaring into the air, the war knife in his hand flashed, and the head of the sword was slashed. The knight had not yet come to his senses, but he felt that he had suddenly flown up, and then he saw his body still sitting firmly on his horse, and then he saw the god-like enemy smash into the crowd of his companions, and in a moment, slash two people in succession.

These knights didn't expect Tu Hu to be so brave, they actually caught up and slashed them, although they all had war horses, but most of them stopped their steps, and were about to turn their heads, when they were suddenly attacked by Tu Hu, they wanted to speed up and escape, and they wanted to resist, but they were not Tu Hu's opponents at all, only Shapur and the three knights who rushed to the front saw the opportunity quickly, slashed at the horse's buttocks, and ran away as if flying.

Tu Hu didn't love to fight either, and after chopping melons and vegetables and killing a few knights who didn't have time to escape, he laughed and strode back to the city.

Behind him, hundreds of Sassanid light cavalry galloped forward, and could be chased to the city, but were waiting for the crossbowmen on the city, Ding Feng gave an order, nearly a hundred crossbowmen released arrows together, and the long arrows whistled out, shooting several Sassanid light cavalry who rushed to the front down their horses, and the light cavalry behind saw it, and quickly reined in the war horse, turned a corner in front of the city wall, and galloped away.

Taking advantage of this, Tu Hu had already returned to the city, and the heavy city gate was violently closed.

The city was bustling, and everyone cast their warm eyes on the faces of Tu Hu, who was surrounded by Ao Lei and others, their eyes were full of admiration, and they were all very excited, as if the 100,000 Sassanids outside the city had been defeated by them.

"Ah Hu, today is very brave." Zhou Yin stepped forward, slapped Tu Hu's sturdy chest hard, and laughed: "Tongzigong is not practiced in vain. ”

Tu Hu smiled innocently, walked up to Sun Shao, and bowed: "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission." ”

"Good, very good!" Sun Shao waved his hand with satisfaction: "Come on, give wine!" ”

Yu An responded, walked up to Tu Hu with a glass of wine, and said with a smile: "Please Huhou drink this cup!" ”

Tu Hu took the cup in his hand and bowed to Sun Shao again: "Thank you for the wine." Then he craned his neck and drank it all.

"Color!" Zhou Yin shouted with a raised arm.

"Color!" "Color!" The surrounding soldiers couldn't suppress their excitement and shouted loudly.

"The country will win!" Tu Hu also smiled, raised his fist, and shouted: "The king is mighty, and the Yue Kingdom will win." ”

"The king is mighty, and the Yue Kingdom will win!" The soldiers shouted in unison, and the roar soon spread along the city wall, and the soldiers and people in the city head of the city all shouted excitedly, and the roar shook the earth.

The Sassanids outside the city were dead. Shapur rescued Alpha, rushed over with the military medics, and carried Alpha on a stretcher, but Alpha was already dying, his chest deflated loudly, his ribs seemed to have been trampled on, mouthfuls of blood gushed out of his mouth, and he looked up at the blue sky, his eyes gradually drifted.

"Father, it's the son's fault, it's the son's fault...... Shapur hugged Alpha's headache and cried: "The son-in-law should remind the alpha, the son-in-law should remind the alpha, this person...... This person is a master of the Yue Kingdom. ”

"The master of the Yue Kingdom?" Ardashir's face was pale, his big hand clenched the war knife at his waist, his green tendons were exposed, and his tall body was trembling slightly. led an army of 100,000 from afar, surrounded Sun Shao in Axum City, and saw that it was about to be completed, but he didn't expect to defeat his bravest son Alpha in a single challenge in front of the battle, and lose so ugly. In this way, the morale of the other side was greatly damaged, while the morale of the other side was greatly boosted, which added a lot of difficulty to the next siege.

What makes him even more heartbroken is that although Alpha is a little unruly, he is really a good son and a good warrior, and how can his spirit in the sky rest in peace after dying in front of the battle in such a humiliating and tragic death?

"Yes, Erchen heard Sun Shao, the king of Yue, say that this Tu Hu is the only master who has practiced that kind of magical martial arts like him. Erchen is just ...... It's just that I didn't think about it for a while, but I didn't expect to lose Alpha's surname because of it. It's all the son's fault, it's all the son's fault......"

Ardashir was stunned, and after a moment, he slowly exhaled a long breath: "It's not your fault, it's the fate arranged by Ahula." Even if there is anything wrong, it is the fault of the Yue people, it is they who killed my alpha, and I want to use the king of Yue and the head of this Tuhu to pay tribute to my alpha. Shapur, pass on my general's order, and those who have the head of the king and the tiger can give priority to the selection of loot. ”

Shapur was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, and quickly turned around and passed on Ardashir's bounty order. Immediately afterward, Ardashir ordered the encampment and convened the generals to discuss the plan to attack the city of Axum.

Because of Alpha's death, the generals have not yet recovered from their surprise, and the atmosphere in the whole tent seems very depressing. Ardashir glanced at them and first criticized himself, "It's me who loves Alpha too much, and I do it too much in the case of victory." In fact, with the strength of our army, it doesn't matter to us whether we can beat their morale or not, but now we have given them a chance, and we are really lifting a stone and shooting ourselves in the foot. ”

When the generals saw Ardashir say this, they all comforted him, and Shapur also patted his chest and said: "Alpha's death was purely accidental, he must have thought that the Yue man had come to surrender and was defenseless, so he fell for his trick." When we find out the city, we must catch this shameless Yue man, rip out his heart and liver, and avenge Alpha. He turned to Ardashir and said, "Father, the sons are willing to be the vanguard of the siege. ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, the other generals were not to be outdone, and stepped forward one after another to ask for battle, and the depression just now was swept away. Ardashir nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand to signal everyone to be calm, and when they were all quiet, he said calmly: "We have inquired clearly, there are 10,000 elites of Yue people in the city, and in addition, there are nearly 10,000 Axumites. Axum was a gift from the Romans to the Yue people, but it was not the will of the Axum people themselves, and they would not willingly help the Yue people fight. The Yue country dominates the sea, but this is the land, it is our world, as long as we surround this place, we can make the Yue people have no way to escape. The most important thing now is not to attack the city, but to sweep away their possible reinforcements, and when they are all gone, the people in the city will collapse, and at that time, we will succeed in attacking the city in one fell swoop. ”

Shapur stepped forward and said: "Erchen is willing to lead his headquarters to intercept the reinforcements of the Yue, and promise not to let a single reinforcement of the Yue people reach the city." ”

"Good." Ardashir glanced at the generals: "Who else wants to be with Shapur?" ”

The generals knew that although Alpha's death was a bad thing for the Sassanids, it was a good thing for Shapur, a competitor died, and there were tens of thousands of more elites, so it was strange that Shapur did not fight for merit at this time. And looking at Ardashir's meaning, it seems that he is already willing to let go of cultivating Shapur's strength, and following Shapur is definitely a good thing to kill two birds with one stone. They stepped forward one after another to ask for battle, as if they were waiting for the Yue people to come and send them to death.

Ardashir immediately ordered Shapur to lead 20,000 light cavalry to patrol between the city of Axum and the seaside, and once he saw the reinforcements of the Yue, he would come forward to intercept them, and if the other side was more numerous, then inform the army to prepare, and the remaining 80,000 troops would surround the city of Axum, seize the time to build siege equipment, and then carry out siege battles when they were ready.

These people are all old troops who have followed Ardashir for many years, and everyone cooperates very tacitly, and after Ardashir arranges, they each go separately to prepare. Shapur set up a large camp ten miles from the sea with 20,000 light enemy soldiers, and sent a large number of scouts to survey the coastline within 100 miles, and it was imperative that not a single Vietnamese reinforcement enter the city of Axum.
