The endless snowfield is pure white, the sky is gray, and looking into the distance, it seems that the heaven and the earth are beginning to merge.

There was a tremor on the ground, and a black shadow spread over the white plain, like a dark cloud.

Looking north from the high hillside, you can see an endless long black line from left to right slowly floating, when the black line rises to a high place and falls, the place you pass through has become black, making people feel that the heavens, the earth, the mountains and the wilderness are all discolored, the Huns are so powerful, and the number of 300,000 is by no means a false report.

The endless number of knights, most of whom were dressed in animal skins, wore longbows on their backs, and had weapons of various kinds. They walked slowly, their bodies covered in snow, and the hot breath exhaled by so many people formed a layer of white mist that slowly rolled upwards.

Countless long poles plunged straight into the sky, hanging on them are dried wolf skins, those wolf skins still maintain the form of wolves, unfolding against the wind, like flying wolves, teeth and claws, to ride the wind.

The Jin soldiers hurriedly turned their horses' heads and galloped south.

******

Zhaozhou Hou promoted the account, and more than 20 senior generals in Zhaozhou Dao arrived in Baoding.

The 300,000 Xiongnu army was divided into two routes, all the way to the Zhao realm, and the other to the Yan realm.

The Zhao army was ready to go, and urgently deployed the area around the Great Wall.

Zhao Hou is dressed in military uniform, and he will also go north to the front line today.

A general asked: "For the defense of the northern border, there is the prince as a pacification envoy, so that all resources can be mobilized, especially the army of the Marquis of Wei, should we send someone to the prince to ask for his life?" ”

Sanqing replied as a military advisor: "The prince is in Yandi, and he will definitely summon our army to Yandi for joint defense, so that the troops on our side will not be enough, and although the pacification envoy can be unified and dispatched, the emperor also gives the three towns the right to be autonomous, at this time, the emperor thinks that it is necessary to transfer troops from other places to support us, and the troops of the Marquis of Wei are directly defending the Beijing division, and it is probably inappropriate to ask the prince to transfer it." ”

"In this way, we don't have to think about the safety of the prince in Yandi?"

Zhao Hou waved his hand: "This time the army is pressing, our net worth and life are in Baoding, so the two lines of defense of the Great Wall and Baoding must not be missed, if the prince is in danger in Yandi, Yanhou will return him to Chang'an." ”

After the public was about to leave, Zhao Hou's tense face disappeared without a trace, and he confronted Sanqing.

Zhao Hou: "I didn't expect this prince to have such bad luck, I thought it would only be a small group of Huns, but now it has become such a large scale, it seems that my nephew really has the emperor's order." ”

Sanqing sneered: "He has the emperor's order, what does he have to do with Zhao Hou?" Now Zhao Hou is already a very popular minister in the world of the Sima family, and he has given the world to the surname of Wang, and Zhao Hou is still just the current honor, defending the world for him. Maybe you don't have the current emperor's grace for you. ”

Zhao Hou Tie's face turned blue, he knew that what Sanqing said was too rebellious, and now he didn't want to answer directly.

Sanqing chuckled: "But now the next important thing is to remove a common obstacle, the prince's background is too secretive, and his talent is also unparalleled, and it is bound to become a big trouble, after all, there can only be one person in the world." ”

Zhao Hou didn't answer again, Sanqing seemed to be playing with his words.

Not answering the call is also a kind of pick-up.

Sanqing laughed: "Master Hou, think about it, the person who can hide from the people in the court and the palace who put Zhuge Sheng by his side for so many years definitely has the ability to reach the sky, and Sima Dan has been lurking under the surveillance of many people for so long It is a miracle, this time we will hand over these materials to the palace, and we can let go to deal with this person, the emperor will only understand, even if he lets the Huns loot at the border, he will not hesitate." Master Hou, we will guard our way, as for Yan Hou, at the same time, he shoulders the responsibility of losing the prince and the land, even if it is the Chen family, it will be very uncomfortable, right? ”

Zhao Hou finally laughed: "The Taoist finally stopped talking about wine, and this qiē plan will have the Taoist Chief." ”

How do you know that Sanqing's face suddenly turned grim, and he slapped the table: "If Master Hou still doesn't make up his mind, Sanqing will leave immediately tomorrow!" ”

Zhao Hou panicked for a while, not knowing what to do.

******

Sima Dan, Cao Lie, Deng Bing, Shi Jing, Long Er, and Xiang Yun are also discussing the account.

Sima Dan: "I have decided to personally detour 1,200 horsemen between the Great Wall and Hukou Village, and the siege here will be handed over to General Xiang." ”

Xiang Yun was startled, and the anger that had been left behind by Qiang suddenly came to naught.

In fact, since Sima Dan's generous statement, there are also enthusiastic soldiers in the Yan army who are very moved, but everyone has not said it explicitly. And when Sima Dan announced at this moment that he had handed over the entire back road and the safest task to the army, Xiang Yun felt strange in his heart.

Cao Lie was also shocked, and only Long Er sneered.

Sima Dan, this kid chose the middle strategy, if the Yan army is available, then the combination of the upper and middle strategies is not impossible, this is powerful.

Cao Lie objected: "Our grain and grass are all here. ”

Long Er intercepted Cao Lie: "Then do you think Yan Jun is unreliable?" ”

Deng Bing was furious: "When will it be your turn to speak here?" I was promoted yesterday and no one is in my eyes today? ”

Sima Dan shouted: "Shut up for me!" Still shameless? General Xiang is laughing! ”

Xiang Yun hurriedly said: "Don't dare! I just hope that we can also go out and meet the enemy together. ”

Sima Dan shook his head and said: "Hukou Village is extremely important, it will be surrounded at any time, although Rouran has no siege equipment, and General Yan has brought many arrows, etc., but this is the important place!" ”

Xiang Yun was stunned, thinking: "It shouldn't be difficult for our cavalry to break through, this means that we don't need to go to the front line, will he order to defend and consume us here?" ”

Sima Dan took out another military order: "General Xiang, this is your military order, stay for three days after we leave, if it doesn't work, you can move randomly, you can choose to join us or return to Yan Realm, remember, you must preserve your strength, you can't make unnecessary sacrifices, and you can only seize the opportunity if you keep your vitality!" ”

Xiang Yun felt ashamed: "I'm really a shameless villain!" He shouted: "No, we also have good men in Yanzhou, how can we shrink back in the current war?" ”

Sima Dan was puzzled: "Hukou Village is the front line, how can it be called turtle shrinkage?" General Xiang doesn't need to say more, the military order is like a mountain, and we have to discuss the second topic. ”

Xiang Yun remembered that most of the Yan army was even more ashamed after the Great Wall, but he didn't dare to fight again.

Cao Lie was still not convinced, Sima Dan said: "If you want to rob the other party's grain and grass, only a few hundred horsemen are enough?" If not, how can the two armies be commanded in a mixed manner? Shall we leave the guests to rob the grain?"

Cao Lie was speechless.

Now even Long Er is a little convinced that what Sima Dan said is sincere.

******

When Xiang Yun reported to Chen Yun, who was mixed in the army, it was the evening of the same day, and the two had a secret meeting in a simple single room.

After listening to the report, Chen Yun was silent for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Leave tomorrow?" This is our stronghold? “

Xiang Yun: "They have already packed their bags, and the food left behind is enough." ”

"No way!"

"What... What the? ”

"Tomorrow, Shenjiawei and I will set off with them, and you can arrange it as much as you can."

"What... What the? I won't let you do that! Xiang Yun's handsome face flushed red, and his face became resolute.

Yanhou Chen Yun smiled and touched Xiang Yun's face: "Don't worry! The Divine Armor Guard is enough to protect me! The faces of the two gradually got closer...

Xiang Yun was like a dream: "Let me do it for you... Let's go! ”

"No... You're here to watch the house..."

******

Long Er found Sima Dan in the early morning: "There is a demonic spirit in the Yan army. ”

"Demonic spirit?" Sima Dan was puzzled.

"There are women, I can smell the aroma, and Xiao Min can't hide it from me!"

Sima Dan blushed: "Okay! If there is, there will be, and I can't control it. "I was trying to escape.

Long Er sighed: "Are you smart or stupid?" That's not an ordinary woman, there is a team of divine armor guards hidden in the Yan army! ”

Sima Dan was taken aback.

The equipment of one divine armor guard is comparable to that of a hundred heavy cavalry.

Sima Dan smacked his tongue: "There are only three teams of divine armor soldiers in the world, two teams are in the imperial city, and one team is in Hukou Village?" ”

Long Er nodded: "Then don't you know who this woman is?" ”

Sima Dan was stunned for a while: "No problem, no way, if we can't get supplies from the village after we go out, we can only rely on ourselves, and the injured brothers we left behind should not be embarrassed... So, you stay! ”

Long Er made a bitter face: "Aren't you trying to make me greedy for life and afraid of death?" ”

Sima Dan patted him on the shoulder: "No, staying in a group of people who don't know whether they are friends or foes is more dangerous than us!" ”

******

Until the moment when the gate of the village slowly opened, Sima Dan and Long Er smiled bitterly at each other.

Wang Ji, the commander of the Shenjia Guard, followed the Xiaocai camp with the fully equipped Shenjia Guard, and Wang Ji said impassionedly: "We must follow the prince, otherwise we will not see the villagers when we go back." Yan people also know how to protect the family and defend the country! ”

No matter how Sima Dan refused, the honest Wang Ji only repeated this sentence, even if Sima Dan said: I'm going to! “

Wang Ji still shouted: "We will definitely follow the prince, otherwise we won't see the villagers when we go back." ”

So a horse team of 1,400 men, each with two horses, went north.

Long Er's heart prayed silently, I must meet Sima Dan again, the emperor is above, and I will do something about it.

******

A huge black tent sits on the dense snow field of the Xiongnu, and a row of wooden fences outside the tent hang "vegetable people" who have become dried corpses.

The strong north wind had already dried the stench of the corpses, but the facial features of those flat-nosed and delicate ghosts were still shocking.

Inside the black tent, Yu Schmidt, the big single of the Rouran Alliance, sat in the center, and a row of little sages sat on each side in turn.

The tribal chiefs' assembly is now under way.

Rouran came from the northern grasslands, so in the name of the Xiongnu unified the grassland tribes, defeated the original alliance leader Xianbei, so called the Rouran Alliance, subordinates include Xianbei, Dangxiang, Wusun, Khitan, Tiefu and many other races, among which only one Xianbei has Tuoba, Yuwen, Murong, bald hair and other races, these races gather for profit, can also be scattered in a hurry, and even turn against each other, Rouran's ability to overwhelm the group, called the big single in the court, its strength can be seen.

Da Shan is a sturdy man in his thirties, for the Huns, only by virtue of strength, the tribes will be convinced, so the people sitting there are not any old people, are energetic young and strong, among which there are many one or two people under the age of 20, all of them are bold and strong, always eager to try.

Da Dan Yu Schmidt: "The vegetable people outside the tent show that Rouran will not be afraid of ghosts, we came this time, for treasure, women, cattle and sheep, in order to conquer a piece of land, so that the people there will become our slaves, we will return to the grassland after winter, I will not give the grassland to those who look like people." ”

A strong man with a shaved head laughed loudly: "How can our women be so ugly? I don't want all the ** women in the ghost side, I won't let out the grassland left to us by Eternal Life! ”

Another young man disagreed: "If the ghost side is relied on, even the wolves in the sky can't drive them away!" Can you be a striker? ”

The bald man was furious, and the tent suddenly fell into a huge quarrel.

Another leader waved his fist: "The countries of the Western Regions are also very rich, go west here, cross the Great Wall, there are many countries that are much smaller than the Jin Kingdom, it's really not good, let's just go west, I heard that there is another kingdom called Persia in the west, and the women there have three grandmothers, which are much stronger than those of the Jin Kingdom!" ”

"Haha!" The crowd fell into a burst of chatter again.

Da Shan Yu was furious: "I have already said that no one is allowed to say that they want to go west, so who will deal with the ghost side?" The grassland left by my ancestors, I will not give it to others when I die, if you are still a soft man. He pulled out his knife and suddenly cut off the tail finger of his left hand, and blood splashed on the face of a man next to him, as well as on his own face, and his face was hideous: "You will swear with blood like me to fight for the protection of our grassland!" ”

Everyone was in awe of such a fierce Da Dan, and they didn't dare to make a sound for a while.

If this battle can get sweetness from the Jin Kingdom, perhaps there is no need to argue whether it is to return from the north or to the west.

Da Shan Yu's determination is obvious, and he will not allow anyone to bring Rou Ran to the unknown West.
