The night covered the world, the Han army position was brightly lit, Yuan Shu covered his swollen eyes, scolded and sat on the baggage car, holding a pot of wine in one hand, and pouring a sip into his mouth from time to time. experienced a bloody fight for the first time, although he was praised by everyone for his bravery, but he was very dissatisfied with the result of being beaten and his nose and eyes were swollen.

Qiao Rui and Bao Hong held their weapons, sitting not far away and chatting, today's scene scared them enough, and they still have palpitations, if Yuan Shu has three long and two short, how can they explain to Yuan Feng? However, Yuan Shu dared to work hard, but it was also a surprise, this guy who didn't seem to have grown up finally did something more reliable today.

Huangfu Song was not intoxicated by the victory during the day, he seized the opportunity of the retreat of the Xianbei people, and ordered to set up camp immediately, and there was no ready-made wood to set up camp, so he arranged the baggage camps, fixed them together with iron rings, and used them as barracks, and everyone stayed in their own camps, and they were not allowed to move around at will. Spears were bundled together to act as a repellent, and obstacles such as iron quinoa thorns were scattered around the camp to prevent the Xianbei people from sneaking up at night.

At the same time, he sent dozens of messengers to inform Yuan Shao that the grain and grass had arrived in Luoyueyuan, and he asked someone to send someone to answer it.

The 10,000-step cavalry was in an orderly manner under the arrangement of Huangfu Song, the military was stable, and the morale was high, everyone enjoyed dinner in the formation, and quietly fell asleep, and the soldiers in charge of patrolling vigilantly paid attention to every move outside. Huangfu Song arranged a patrol post as far as the eye could see outside the camp, in groups of five, and once there was a situation, he would use torches to warn.

Of course, this task is none other than the cavalry battalion, and Cao Ying, the captain of Changshui, Zhang He, the captain of the Tun cavalry, and Chun Yuqiong, the captain of the Yue cavalry, are no exceptions, and they are personally responsible for the duty in the second half of the night. In terms of official positions, they are not lower than Huangfu Song, they are still generals of the forbidden army, they are more noble than the Taishou who are released, and they still look down on Huangfu Song at the beginning, but now no one has this idea. Not only that, but they also felt sincere admiration for Liu Xiu - Liu Xiu had never worked with Huangfu Song before, but he dared to hand over such an important task to Huang Fu Song, this insight was unbelievable.

Huangfu Song's face was calm, he explained tomorrow's arrangements unhurriedly, before waiting for Yuan Shao's news, he didn't want to act, in the face of more than 10,000 horsemen led by Tan Shihuai himself, they did not have enough strength to attack, they could only focus on defense, and if they could hold the position, it would be a victory. Considering that the losses of the infantry battalion were relatively large, Huang Fusong requested that a part of the three cavalry battalions be transferred to supplement it to strengthen the strength of the infantry battalion.

"Why don't we move closer to General Zhengbei?" Chun Yuqiong asked puzzled.

"We are not moving fast enough with foot soldiers and a large number of people." Huangfu Song calmly explained: "Moreover, General Zhengbei was originally going to return to the south, even if he ran out of food around him, when he heard the news of our army, he would have the ability to kill and join us." He was silent for a moment, and then said: "The reason why the morale of the Xianbei people is strong is because of the sandalwood locust. We don't have Tanshi Huai, but we have General Zhengbei and General Beizhonglang, as well as you, and the troops are divided into three places, which is more beneficial to us. ”

Cao Ying laughed: "Yes, there is only one Tanshi Huai, but we have three, and the Huangfu Taishou is enough to compete with the general of Zhengbei and the general of Beizhonglang." As long as we contain Tanshi Huai along the way, the other two will have a chance to fight back. ”

Huangfu Song was modest, and glanced at Cao Ying approvingly, there were so many people, only Cao Ying understood what he meant at once.

"Three-way people, Bei Zhonglang will be the weakest, if Tan Shihuai attacks him with all his might, I'm afraid there will be more losses and fewer wins." Zhang He said worriedly: "Do we want to contact them?" ”

Huangfu Song shook his head: "Before leaving, Beizhong Lang will have an explanation, as long as we don't get caught up in the loophole by Tanshi Huai, he has his own arrangements." ”

Zhang He and Xiahou Yuan glanced at each other and didn't say anything more. Although they didn't understand why Liu Xiu only told Huangfu Song but not them, they believed that Liu Xiu must have his intentions in doing so.

Huangfu Song looked at their demeanor in his eyes and smiled slightly: "Captain Zhang, General Beizhonglang told me that if the infantry battalion is seriously injured, your Euphorbia will be the best supplement." I would like to transfer your subordinates to the position of the infantry battalion first, and ask you to fight side by side with Captain Xiahou. ”

Zhang He arched his hand: "Obey the command of the lord." ”

Huangfu Song breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to He Miao again: "Hu Benlang fought bravely today, but their combat strength is too poor, and the losses are too great, which will damage Your Majesty's face." Ming said that you are still behind the infantry battalion, and you must not come forward to fight unless you have to, especially Yuan Shu, who has been injured, so don't rush to the front again. ”

Before He Miao could speak, Cao Ying touched his nose, "I'm afraid that the adults will have to say this to him personally." ”

Huangfu Song thought about it, it seems that this is indeed the case, there are really few people here who can stop Yuan Shu, he was just about to speak, Liu Bei opened his mouth: "I'll go talk to him first, if he doesn't listen, it's not too late for an adult to come forward." ”

Everyone's eyes were on Liu Bei, and they didn't seem to understand when Liu Bei made friends with Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu would actually listen to him? Liu Bei said unhurriedly: "My husband is from the Fufeng Ma family, and he is a brother and sister with Yuan Shu's uncle and Mrs. Ma, I think he will give me some face." ”

Everyone suddenly realized, but Xiahou Yuan frowned inadvertently.

…… In the middle of the night, Tanshi Huai got the most accurate news, the main general of the Han army was indeed Liu Xiu, although the scouts had not seen Liu Xiu himself, but they saw the war horse that originally belonged to Huai Zong, and was captured by Liu Xiu together with Huai Zong.

Tanshi Huai suddenly became murderous. Huai Zong's accidental death in battle was an unforgettable pain for him, Huai Zong was like him in all aspects, and it was natural for him to succeed him as the king of Xianbei in the future. If Huai Zong succeeded to the throne, not only would He Lian not have any wishful thinking, but even Murong Feng and Feng Crack would bow down and obey their orders, but no one expected that Huai Zong went to Ningcheng and actually lost his life and died in the hands of Liu Xiu.

Tan Shihuai didn't believe the rumors that Lou Lu shot Huai Zong, he believed that there must be Liu Xiu's shadow in it, not only that, but from that day on, Liu Xiu's shadow has been haunting him like a ghost. The split wind suddenly left Danhan Mountain, and the three major tribes of Xianbei in the west jointly attacked Beihai for a long time, and even several inexplicable victories were all involved with Liu Xiu.

However, after two years of hard work, Xianbei in the west has lost control, and the Han army has even reached Danhan Mountain, Yuan Shao occupied his royal court, and went deep into Mobei, beheading 20,000. The Xianbei people turned from offensive to defensive, the good situation for decades took a sharp turn for the worse, and there were even more suspicions inside, father and son did not get along, and the monarch and ministers did not get along, these were all Liu Xiu's ghosts.

He wants to kill Liu Xiu and remove this tumor. Now that Liu Xiu came to him with 10,000 horses, how could he let go of this great opportunity? As for the Yuan brothers, as long as they have not returned to Sene, life and death have not escaped his control. Even if Yuan Shao got Yuan Shu's heavy supplies, would he definitely be able to go back safely?

But if you don't kill Liu Xiu this time, you may not have this opportunity next time.

Tanshi Huai sat quietly in front of the fire, watching the jumping flames. He was suddenly a little irritable, his personal guard battalion was called Xuanwu, but Liu Xiu's battle banner was Suzaku, and they seemed to be destined to be nemesis. He suddenly thought of Huai Zong's horse, when Huai Zong chose this horse, some people said that the color of this horse was not good, and Huai Zong, at that time he regarded it as a joke, did not comment, but did not expect it to be a prophecy.

Should I choose a black horse or a white horse for mounting? Tanshi Huai's heart suddenly moved, his body leaned forward slightly, and the whole person was like a leopard ready to go, looking at the tent motionlessly. The tent door seemed to be blown by the wind, and a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. He glanced at it, dispersed his vigilance, and bowed to the ground: "Master." ”

The white figure was shrouded in a large cloud, and his face could not be seen, but Tanshi Huai could feel his eyes. He didn't dare to move, and fell quietly on the ground.

"You're upset." The man said lightly: "You are carried away by hatred, and your Dao heart is in turmoil. ”

Tanshi Huai slowly straightened up, but he didn't dare to raise his head, only dared to look at the flames. He dialed the fire and said respectfully, "Please give me advice." ”

"I don't know how to use soldiers." The man gently flicked his sleeve: "But I know that it is already summer, and the power of fire in the five elements has long exceeded the power of water. ”

Tanshi Huai's eyebrows involuntarily raised: "Yuan Shao is also a fire." ”

"He doesn't know Taoism." The man was a little unhappy, and his tone became stern: "But Liu Xiu understands, not only is there a Taoist priest by his side, but he is also familiar with all kinds of foreign ways. ”

"I understand, too." Tanshi Huai replied calmly: "Master, I have been taught by you for thirty years, and none of them dare to slack off. Although it is far from the Taoism of the master, you also said that in terms of Taoism, there are not many people in the world who can be my opponent. ”

"It's not that it's not much, but no one is your opponent except me." The man's voice softened a little, "But you must know that although Dao Technique is important, you have not yet entered the point of doing whatever you want, fighting alone, you can easily defeat Liu Xiu, but you are a war, not a competition of martial arts, there are many things that may affect your strength." ”

He paused, and then persuaded: "Why don't you pause for a while, when you have broken through the realm, who will be your opponent at that time?" ”

Tanshi Huai shook his head expressionlessly: "Master, you haven't been able to penetrate that realm, how dare I hope for it?" In the past 30 years, I have not been diligent in the cultivation of Taoism except for the war, but except for the first ten years, I have not made any progress in the past 20 years. Master, I'm not the kind of disciple you hope I am. ”

"No, don't be disappointed." The man's voice had become a little sad, but he soon regained his quiet calm. "Cultivating the Tao is the heart, I still think that your root bones are the best, Liu Xiu is too far behind you. Ten years of wall map broken wall, maybe you are only a thin layer of silk from the avenue, but you have not finally broken it. Isn't it a pity to give up at this time? ”

Sandalwood was silent.

The man seemed to shake his head: "It's my fault, I shouldn't have given you the art of war in the first place, you are too obsessed with the art of war, you have forgotten what is the real avenue, in the past twenty years, although you have been thinking quietly every night, but your heart has long been on the avenue." ”

Tanshi Huai still remained silent.

The man sighed faintly, and a breeze blew, and the tent door floated up, and he had disappeared from the view of the sandalwood locust. The sandalwood locust sat there motionless, like a stone carving. He suddenly felt an indescribable sense of loss, and even the news of Huai Zong's death did not make him so sad. In the past thirty years, although Shizun has only come once a few months or even a year, he always feels that Shizun is by his side, as long as he needs it, Shizun will appear immediately, but this time, he feels that Shizun may never appear again, and he has lost the most important person in his life.

He fell to his knees, his forehead pressed to the ground, and two lines of hot tears fell silently to the ground. When he straightened up again, his face was calm, as if the scene had never happened. He took a breath, and slowly exhaled it, and a voice sounded on his lips, and the night air in the big tent suddenly became cold to the bone, and the flames in the fire pit seemed to be frozen, and suddenly became shorter.

The corners of Tanshi Huai's mouth provoked a sneer, looking at his pale palm: "Fire is more than water? But Master, you have forgotten that this is the place of the Xianbei people, and among the five elements, the place where the power of water is the most abundant, how can he be my opponent? Yuan Shao's army is trapped by me, can only 10,000 horsemen escape the palm of my hand? ”

Outside the tent, the two guards on duty rubbed their eyes and glanced at each other, they seemed to see a figure floating in front of them, but when they looked closely, there was nothing.

…… In the clouds, Feng Xue was taking care of Liu Xiu's outfits, he was about to go out of the plug to Luo Yueyuan to fight against Tan Shi Huai, Feng Xue was very worried, she looked at Liu Xiu, who was silent and silent, and couldn't help but remind: "Helian that person is not credible, don't listen to him." ”

Liu Xiu raised his eyebrows and smiled evilly, "I didn't listen to him." ”

"Then you still rushed to Luoyueyuan? What if the king is there with a large army, you are not his opponent at all. What's more, his Dao skills are also higher than yours. ”

"Don't worry, I won't fight with him, if I can't fight, I'll run, I just need to entangle him, not fight with him." Liu Xiu pulled Fengxue over, hugged him in his arms, stretched his hand into her clothes, held the ball of bullets on her chest, and flicked it lightly: "Madam, I have also made great progress in Taoism recently." ”

Feng Xue blushed and pushed his hand away, "I don't know your Dao technique yet, I can't even do it, even if you have limited growth, it's still far from the king." ”

"You don't understand that." Liu Xiu pulled her over again and squeezed his eyes: "Or, I'll try to show you?" ”

Feng Xue was also a little emotional, his face was hot, and he glanced at Liu Xiu: "Okay, I'll also see what progress you have made recently." ”

Liu Xiu smiled, and put his hand into Feng Xue's little clothes again, Feng Xue screamed, and was about to push him away, but Liu Xiu put away his smile: "Don't move, I'll let you see the heart-shaking that your husband has just realized." ”

Feng Xue originally thought that he was going to say something serious, but when she heard this, she couldn't help but burst out laughing, but at this moment, her face suddenly changed, her eyebrows frowned, she turned her face, and looked at Liu Xiu with a surprised gaze. Liu Xiu smiled, his hand moved in her small clothes for a while, Fengxue suddenly screamed, his face turned pale, he involuntarily reached out to cover his heart, and moaned: "Husband, don't do it, I'm uncomfortable, it's very uncomfortable." ”

"Hehe, I'm amazing, right?" Liu Xiu withdrew his hand and gently stroked Fengxue's back, and after a while, Fengxue eased up, and looked at Liu Xiu with surprise and joy: "Husband, how did you do it?" ”

"I'm smart, I've just come to my senses." Liu Xiu laughed, hugged Fengxue in his arms, and kissed her forehead: "How is it, the husband is amazing, right?" ”

Feng Xue's eyes turned, and he covered his mouth and smiled: "It's powerful, it's just that in front of the two armies, the king probably won't let you put your hand on his body like this to cast a spell, right?" Your technique is useless except to bully me. ”

Liu Xiu's face turned red and he laughed twice. When she was speechless, Mrs. Lu walked in wearing a fox fur and a strong suit, and stood at the door: "My lord, can I do this?" ”

Looking at Mrs. Lu, who had a high chest and a thin waist, posing in front of him, Liu Xiu only felt that the dantian was hot, the evil fire was coming out, the wind and snow whitened him, and he reached out and pinched him fiercely in his restless part, this pinch made him feel even more incomparable, almost lost, and subconsciously screamed.

"What's wrong, my lord?" Mrs. Lu looked at them in surprise, seeing that the two of them had strange faces and ambiguous expressions, and their clothes were still a little messy, she suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but blush, and hurriedly covered her fox fur and turned around to leave. Liu Xiu hurriedly stopped her: "Madam, wait, I have something to ask you for." ”

Mrs. Lu was helpless, so she had to turn around and bow shyly: "Your Excellency, please speak." ”

Her omission caused Liu Xiu's heart to move again, and the soft hand that had just enjoyed the wind and snow moved involuntarily, and she didn't know if Mrs. Lu's heart was as smooth as it was. Seeing that his expression was wrong, Fengxue hurriedly coughed and said with a smile: "Husband just realized a feeling...... Heartbreaking**, I want to have a discussion with my wife. ”

"Heartbreaker?" Mrs. Lu was very surprised, and raised her eyebrows: "Is it a heart-destroying spell?" ”

"It's not a curse, it's a ......" Liu Xiu raised his hand, and felt that his fingers were a little uncontrollable to move, "It's a technique." ”

Mrs. Lu looked at him puzzled, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, her cherry lips were slightly open, and her expression mixed with maturity and innocence made her heart move. Liu Xiu didn't dare to look at it anymore, and hurriedly lowered his head, "Please Madame put your hand on the case." ”

Lu Shi stretched out his hands to support the case.

Liu Xiu took a breath, calmed himself down, and then stretched out his finger and tapped lightly on the desk. His fingers are very nimble and jump on the desk like playing a piano, but his voice is a little monotonous, sounding like a single rhythm. Lu Shi frowned slightly, listened attentively, and stared at Liu Xiu's fingers without blinking. After a while, her eyes suddenly widened, and her face turned red.

"Heartbreaker?"

"Sort of." Liu Xiu shrugged his shoulders, "I can't make any dragon roars, tiger roars, and lion roars, but I found that this can also achieve that effect, but I just realized that the lethality is not great, and it must be close to the heart to be useful." If it weren't for the lady's sharp facial features, she might not have felt it at all. ”

"No, no, no, it's just that you're not skilled enough, but sir, don't take a different path, you're really a genius." Mrs. Lu suddenly became excited, grabbed Liu Xiu's hand on the desk with both hands and shook it vigorously, a fanatical light shot out of her eyes, so frightened that Liu Xiu hurriedly retracted her hand. Mrs. Lu also felt that she was a little out of shape, but she was still very excited: "My lord, can you tell me the truth?" ”

Liu Xiu scratched his head, in fact, to put it bluntly, this is not a secret at all. He has always suspected that the so-called spell is to use sound waves of different frequencies to resonate with the organs of the human body in order to increase the amplitude and cause discomfort to the other party. The human heart beats about 60 to 75 times a minute, which means that the beating frequency of the heart muscle is about one or slightly higher, and if the surrounding vibration is close to this frequency, the person will feel uncomfortable in the heart and have palpitations. Sound waves with a frequency of less than 20 belong to infrasound, which is beyond the range of the human ear and cannot be heard at all, but some animals can receive it, such as elephants.

In that case, wouldn't tapping your fingers at the same frequency as your heartbeat and keeping them synchronized also make your heart more intense and produce a sensation similar to that of a heart palpitation?

Through the experiment on Feng Xue, he can say that he has succeeded, at least this idea is correct. However, as Feng Xue said, his heart-destroying ** is a standard chicken rib, and he can only be happy with Feng Xue, because when he is right with someone, it is impossible for the opponent to let him put his hand on his heart and slowly feel his heartbeat, and then increase the amplitude of his heartbeat step by step.

If you have that opportunity, it is better to punch it directly, where does it take so much trouble.

In the face of Mrs. Lu's excitement, Liu Xiu could only smirk, thinking that this was just a manifestation of paranoia, just like the Heavenly Family discovered a diamond star hundreds of millions of light years away, which sounded beautiful, but in fact, it was useless.

Of course, it can't be said that it is useless, maybe she will let him try it on him, it must be more real than putting her hand on the case. Liu Xiu had a ghost in his heart, he was embarrassed to look at Mrs. Lu again, Mrs. Lu was immersed in the ecstasy of sudden enlightenment, and she didn't notice his strange appearance, only Feng Xue looked at Liu Xiu with a smile and a very strange expression.

Mrs. Lu got up and went out, probably to share this discovery with Wang Zhi, Feng Xue slowly leaned over, raised her face, stared at Liu Xiu's eyes, and dragged out her voice: "Husband, what are you thinking?" ”

"I ...... I didn't think about anything. Liu Xiu blinked his eyes and said with a dry smile.

"Hey, hey, hey......" Feng Xue stretched out one hand to hook Liu Xiu's neck, and the other hand slid down the bodies of the two, and smiled exaggeratedly: "Husband, I grabbed your handle, do you still want to deny it?" ”

Liu Xiu's eyes widened, and he wailed: "Madam let go, this will be ...... It's going to kill people. ”

"It's okay if you want me to let go, you recruit from the truth, what bad thoughts are you thinking, have you done anything bad, if you are not honest, hehehe, don't blame me......" Feng Xue's face tightened, pretending to be fierce, and his hands were also tight: "Chop the grass and eradicate the roots!" ”

Liu Xiu gasped, arched his body, and exhaled in pain: "Madam, I confess, I confess." ”

Feng Xue suddenly became excited, and giggled: "Tell me quickly, I have long felt that something is wrong with your eyebrows." ”
