The group was not very large, only three or four hundred, and they were lying on their horses, staggering, and some of them could not sit steadily. You don't have to think about it to know that they must be overtired, and it is already a little difficult to continue.

And that makes sense. They set out from Jiuyuan County of Zhao State, entered the desert, and went deep into Dragon City, which was more than a thousand miles away, and this march was enough to make them tired.

Not to mention, after digging the ancestral graves of the Xiongnu in Longcheng, they fled for their lives under the pursuit of the Xiongnu, which was so thrilling, and the consumption of energy and physical strength was extremely great.

If they were alive and well, and not tired, it would have become a strange thing.

"This ......" Wang Qian, Wei Yi and Meng Wu were shocked when they saw it.

At the same time, they were moved, and tears rolled in their eyes.

Li Mu and the others were 1,000 elites when they set out, and now there are only three or four hundred people who have returned to the pass, which means that more than half of them are killed or wounded, which is a very heavy price. Even at such a heavy price, Li Mu and the others still survived tenaciously and led the Huns here, how rare it is!

"Can we give them some help?" Meng Wu's voice trembled slightly.

"Can't!" Wang Jian shook his head and said, "We are ambush soldiers, we can't be exposed now, we can only rely on themselves." ”

Wang Jian raised his head to the sky, sighed, and watched Li Mu and them in danger, and he could only sit back and watch, this feeling was really bad, very bad!

"Hey!" Wei Yu also sighed.

He felt the same uncomfortable, but he knew it. What Wang Jian said is very reasonable. They are ambushes. It must not be exposed at this time. Otherwise. The Huns are likely to retract, Li Mu's efforts will be in vain, and those elites will die in vain.

"Just watching them suffer like this, they will be killed by the Huns at any time, I feel uncomfortable, uncomfortable!" As Meng Wu spoke, tears welled up and he choked up.

"If it's not comfortable, you have to take it!" Wang Qian's words were a little cruel. But he had to be: "As a general, you must get used to the sea of corpses and blood, and you can't be shaken because someone is dead or injured." ”

"Hey!" Meng Wu was very unwilling, but he also knew that what Wang Jian said was very reasonable, and he could only sigh.

Wang Qian, Yu Yi and Meng Wu clenched their hands into fists, clenching them desperately, too hard, the backs of their hands were blue, and their nails were sunk into the flesh. Clenching his lips, his teeth already biting his lips. Traces of blood oozed out.

Soon, Li Mu and the others came to the narrowest part of the pass. It rushed over like a splash of wind, and galloped south like an arrow.

Immediately afterwards was the Xiongnu Brigade of horses.

I saw a sea of people, surging in, flooding the pass, rolling south. There are many Huns, no one can say, only know that there are many Huns, and they can't see the end at a glance.

"Rumble!" The thunderous sound of hooves shook the earth, and large smoky clouds splashed up, forming a huge dark cloud, which connected the sky to the ground, covering the sky and the sun, and even the sunlight in the sky could not be penetrated.

This dark cloud was too big, and once it formed, the place where Wang Qian, Wei Yi and Meng Wu stood was gloomy, without a trace of sunlight.

Countless Huns rushed to the narrowest part of the pass, and some of them were crowded, and had to slow down, as if the rushing torrent had been intercepted. The Huns poured through from the narrowest point, like a flood that had been released from the floodgates, surging and unstoppable.

Wang Qian, Wei Yi and Meng Wu looked south, only to see the Huns rushing, but not their heads; Looking to the north again, I saw the Huns coming, but I couldn't see their tails, just like a long dragon, rolling south.

"That's the king's banner, it's the Xiongnu's Shan Yu." Wang Jian pointed his hand forward.

I saw a distinctive flag fluttering in the wind, hunting sound. This flag is embroidered with gold, shining gold, it is the flag of the king of Shan Yu.

"Shan Yu is here, great!" Wei Yi and Meng Wu rejoiced in unison, shook their fists fiercely, and almost sang: "This time, we must not let Shan Yu get away!" ”

What a beautiful thing it would be to kill the Huns' Shan Yu! Don't say it, just thinking about it makes people bubble beautifully.

Rushing to the forefront were the Xiongnu's string controllers, who passed through here for three days and four nights in a row.

Immediately afterwards, the arrival of the Hun herdsmen of the brigade. The Xiongnu herdsmen rode horses, sang pastoral songs, drove cattle and sheep, and followed the string controls.

At this time, everyone of the Xiongnu herdsmen was happy, and they were all more happy than the callers who picked up the ingots, and they only listened to their loud discussions.

"The land of the Hetao, with fertile soil and beautiful water, is the best pasture, and the Great Huns have tried to occupy it several times, but have not succeeded. This time, the Great Huns dispatched millions of people, and they will definitely succeed. ”

"The land of the Hetao, as long as it can be occupied, the Great Huns will no longer have to live the kind of days when they are not full of food and clothing, and the Great Huns have endless beef and mutton, and endless leather clothes, and they will compete with the living immortals in this day."

"The land of Hetao is a gift from the great Kunlun god to the Great Huns, and this is the pasture of our Great Huns. The hateful and hateful people of the Central Plains, they stole the pastures of the Great Hun warriors, but they harmed the Great Huns, so that the Great Hun warriors could not eat enough and could not dress warmly. When we have the land of the Hetao, we will have more cattle, sheep, horses, and more mouths. At that time, the Great Xiongnu were strong and strong, and then entered the Central Plains and turned the Central Plains into the pasture of the Great Xiongnu. ”

The more these Xiongnu herdsmen talked, the more joyful they became, and some of them sang loudly, as if the land of Hetao was already the pasture of the Xiongnu.

The land of Hetao has abundant water sources and rich pastures, which the Xiongnu can dream of. In the past, although the Xiongnu also wanted to get it, they just didn't have a chance and were beaten out by Huaxia.

This time, the arrival of millions of Xiongnu people will not succeed if they do not occupy the land of Hetao, or if the Xiongnu herdsmen are not happy.

The Huns lived in the desert, and the life in the desert was "bitter cold", not only the temperature was low, but also they could not eat enough and wear warm. It is precisely because of this that the Xiongnu had to "be noble and strong and cheap to the old", and give the limited living resources to the young and strong, so that they could play a greater role. As for the old and weak, they can only be wronged to eat and drink poorly.

Eating poorly, drinking poorly, is still good. If there is a year of great disasters, such as the year of the heavy snowstorm, many cattle, sheep and horses freeze to death, and the living resources will be even more strained. In this case, the Xiongnu had to resort to bloody means to kill the old and weak in order to save living resources.

This would change if the Loop was occupied. The land of the Hetao, the soil is fertile and the water is beautiful, it is a natural excellent pasture, if the Xiongnu occupy it, you can raise more cattle, sheep and horses, you will have more living resources, you can feed more people, and the Xiongnu will be more powerful.

After the Xiongnu became strong, they would stretch out their claws to the Central Plains, which was an inevitable trend.

And the richness of the Central Plains, famous all over the world, is better than the land of the Hetao, and the Xiongnu dreamed of it. The more the Xiongnu herdsmen thought about it, the more beautiful they became, and a happy song sounded, and everyone's faces were filled with joy.

"Damn the Huns, you just dream!"

"If you want the land of the Hetao, if you want the Central Plains, I'm afraid you won't have that life!"

Wang Qian, Wei Yi and Meng Wu listened to the Xiongnu's discussions, and they were very unhappy.

There were five or six hundred thousand Xiongnu herdsmen, and they were driving cattle and sheep, so this action was slow. When the herdsmen passed through the pass, they saw a sea of cattle and sheep, and countless cattle and sheep were moving, which was so shocking that Wang Qian, Wei Yi and Meng Wu were shocked again.

By the time all the Xiongnu herdsmen passed through the pass, it was already ten days later.

As soon as the Xiongnu herdsmen passed, Wang Jian immediately ordered and said: "Brothers: the hateful and hateful Xiongnu have entered the land of Hetao, and it is time for us to act!" We must cut off the retreat of the Huns! Don't let go of a single Hun! ”

"Cut off the retreat of the Huns!"

"Don't let go of a Hun!"

The soldiers of the Qin army roared loudly, and the sound shook the sky, shaking the ground and trembling.

With a wave of Wang Qian's right hand, a group of Qin troops came out of the mountains, went straight to the narrowest part of the pass, and began to set up camp.

The movements of the Qin army were very fast, and the fence began to take shape, extending little by little. In less than half a day, a huge camp appeared at the narrowest part of the pass, cutting off the Xiongnu's retreat.

XXXXXXXX

Beihe, the camp of the Qin army.

In Qin Yiren's big tent of the Chinese army, Qin Yiren sat on a low table, glanced at the generals, and said, "Li Mu has passed the pass and is galloping towards our camp. ”

"The Huns are coming?"

"Really here?"

The generals were a little unconvinced, and their faces were surprised.

The Beihe camp is more than 300 miles away from the road where the Xiongnu harass Zhao Jiuyuan, and it is not easy to lure the Xiongnu here. Although the generals already knew that Li Mu had successfully dug up the ancestral grave of the Xiongnu, at first glance, they were also skeptical.

"Great! If the Huns dared to come, the Great Qin Ruishi would definitely kill him. ”

"This time, we must fight bravely to kill the enemy, and we can't let go of a single Hun!"

Immediately after, the generals were overjoyed and almost singing.

The Qin people were "happy when they heard the war", and regarded the war as eating meat and drinking wine, and when they heard that there was a war, they were overjoyed. Not to mention, this is still fighting the Huns, and they are even more happy.

Listening to the discussion of the generals, Qin Yiren was very satisfied, the generals could have such fighting spirit, and they were still worried that the Huns would not break?

"Hmm." Suddenly, Qin Yiren's eyes widened violently, staring at the tea cup on the short case, only to see ripples in the originally calm tea.

"The Huns are coming!" Qin Yiren stood up violently, his eyes were as wide as copper bells, and he strode out and rushed out.

"The Huns are coming?" The generals were originally a little unbelieving, but when they looked at the tea cup in front of them, they immediately believed it, and they were overjoyed, and they hurriedly followed Qin Yiren out.

Qin Yiren rushed over, and soon came to the gate of the camp, climbed the sentry tower to take a look, and saw a huge dark cloud in the north, connecting the sky and the earth, and I didn't know how big it was.

A fiery team of centaurs came into view, galloping towards the camp.

"It's General Li Mu!" Qin Yiren saw it clearly, and the first person was Li Mu, and he hurriedly shouted: "Quick, open the camp gate and accept General Li into the camp." ”

Even if he didn't give the order, Qin Jun knew what to do.

As soon as the camp gate opened, Li Mu and the others rushed to the front, Pegasus came, and went straight into the camp.

"General Lee." Qin Yiren was overjoyed, got down from the sentry tower, and went straight to Li Mu.

"Poof!" I saw Li Mu staggering, planted his head from the horse, and muttered to himself, "Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life!" ”

He tilted his head and snored loudly, like thunder, and he fell asleep. (To be continued.) )
