Wen Hao was not discouraged. These days, according to what Liu Ziqiu said, he took the courage to attack the city and seize the pool. Although Fan Lihua still ignored him, he could feel that the frost on Fan Lihua's face seemed to be melting. But this time is different, I'm afraid he won't be able to come back after he goes out, but he can't bear to continue to provoke other girls.

Just when Wen Hao was about to turn his head, he suddenly heard a "squeak", the courtyard door opened, and Fan Lihua leaned against the door with a cold face.

Wen Hao didn't want to go anymore, so he stepped forward and said, "Miss Fan, I won't be back for the past few days, send some dried meat, Xiaohong will milk the sheep, just give her these ewes." ”

Xiaohong is the maid that Liu Ziqiu rewarded to Wen Hao, and is now responsible for taking care of Fan Lihua's daily life.

"Going on a campaign?" Fan Lihua was born in a military household, and this kind of scene is all too familiar.

After all, this expedition is a military secret, Wen Hao wanted to find a reason to prevaricate at first, but after hesitating, he nodded and said, "En." ”

Fan Lihua bit her lip and did not speak.

"Then I'll go, take care of yourself." Wen Hao's heart was empty, he felt bored, he was ruthless, turned his head and left.

"Take care, I still want a grasshopper you caught." Fan Lihua's voice suddenly sounded behind him, and the iron-blooded tough guy's body trembled, and finally walked away without looking back.

Looking at Wen Hao's back as he gradually moved away, Fan Lihua seemed to have a few tears in her eyes. Until noon today, Wen Hao didn't come to offer his courtesy, and Fan Lihua faintly felt that something big was about to happen. Throughout the afternoon, she was a little distracted, and walked behind the courtyard gate several times inexplicably, and sure enough, she got the news of Wen Hao's expedition.

People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless. Wen Hao's kindness to her is like a seed buried in her heart. These seeds have just sprouted, but the people who sow them have to stay away, it is really a trick, Fan Lihua suddenly has a feeling of wanting to cry.

……

Time is pressing, and Weiding City must be taken within a month, and Murong Fuyun is also reorganizing the army. As usual, every time there is a battle, it is other tribes other than Xianbei who take the lead. In the land of the West Sea, in addition to the Xianbei people, there are four most powerful tribes, that is, the Dangxiang Tuoba tribe of Tuoba Mumi, the Murowei tribe of Mengwuza, the Dangxiang Thin Seal Department of Xifeng Yelilan, and the Tiele tribe of Hunluo.

This is the second time that the Tuoba Department has rejected his call, which makes Murong Fuyun grit his teeth with hatred, but now is not the time to calculate, only to settle accounts with Tuoba Mumi after recovering Weiding City. And the Murowei tribe of Mughuza has been completely merged into the so-called Xihai tribe, and the news came from the ears and eyes of Jin Bo left in Weiding City, which is absolutely reliable, and it is impossible to count on it.

Now, the task of taking the lead fell on the shoulders of Xifeng Ye Lilan and Hun Luo, the two of them each led three thousand young men from the headquarters and served as the vanguard of the left and right.

Murong Fuyun led 13,000 Xianbei cavalry to serve as the Chinese army, which was also the last strength of the Xibei people. According to the information collected by Jin Bo, there were only more than 8,000 people under Liu Ziqiu's men, and they were still a ragtag army cobbled together by people from all walks of life. Therefore, for this war, Murong Fuyun was confident, even with the strength of the Xianbei people, he also had an absolute advantage. The reason why he still wanted to gather other tribes was to preserve his strength as much as possible, and secondly, to declare to those tribal leaders that he was the master of the land.

Behind him was an army of other small tribes, numbering more than 10,000 men. The task of this army is to drive cattle and sheep and transport forage, which is equivalent to the role of Liu Ziqiu's army during Yang Guangxi's expedition that day, that is, the servant and the people.

……

Hun Luo was the vanguard of the left flank, and his tribe was encamped on the shores of Lake Hara. It is a saltwater lake slightly larger than Tuosu Lake, located in the northern part of the Bayingol River, about three hundred miles east of Ulandababan Mountain. He had already been appointed as a vanguard by Murong Fuyun more than once, but thanks to his caution, his clan suffered few casualties every time he fought. It's just that the object of the battle this time made him a little stunned.

The wedding of Tuoba Yuanju is still fresh in his memory. Liu Ziqiu's display of force was like a god, especially the bloody handprints on the top of the boulder, which often appeared in front of him.

The most terrifying thing was the battle of the Little Valley that took place later. That battle didn't spread in the Western Sea Wasteland, but Hun Luo knew. He had always been close to Mughuzha, and when the clouds moved his people to the city of Weiding, he received the news from the Murowei warriors who had survived the battle in the Little Valley. There are 6,000 warriors, and only more than 400 people are left who can walk the valley in the end, and it is still Liu Ziqiu's extrajudicial grace, otherwise, not a single living mouth will be left. The Murwei soldier also saw with his own eyes that an arrow from the Western Navy shot Kereh's head, and it is said that it was only one of Liu Ziqiu's generals who did it, not Liu Ziqiu himself.

Hun Luo was walking in the middle of the group with all his heart, and suddenly came across a small pond. The pond was shallow, and it was all icy, and the horses stepped on it as if they were walking on the ground. Walking far away, Hun Luo couldn't help but look back. Under the sun, the small pond shone with a strange brilliance, like the boulder that was slapped into the ground by Liu Ziqiu.

"Stop it all!" Hun Luo's heart was flustered, and he hurriedly called a henchman and ordered, "Hun Tra, you send a few teams of scouts to the front to explore the path, and the back will also be sent, and more will be sent!" Others camped in place! ”

Huntra hesitated: "My lord, we have only been gone for two hours, so don't be so cautious." ”

Hun Luo shook his head and said, "This battle can't be fought. ”

Huntra was surprised: "What do you mean?" ”

Hun Luo suddenly waved his hand and whispered: "You personally take a few people to Weiding City and report to Lord Liu!" ”

"Ahh Huntra was taken aback and said, "If the lord of the country knows, then it will be ......."

Hun Luo said: "I have a hunch that after this battle, Murong Fuyun's fate is only worse than the battle of Che I Zhenshan!" ”

……

Xifengye Lilan had never heard of an extremely tragic battle in that nameless valley, but he knew Tuoba Mumi's thoughts, as long as Liu Ziqiu died, he could still marry Tuoba Qianyu and go home. Therefore, this time, as the right vanguard of the attack on Weiding City, Lilan was even more active than before.

His tribal camp is in the Dachaidan Valley west of the Yuka River, bypassing the southern foot of Qaidam Mountain, after a day's march, he can cross Tuosu Lake, and another day he will reach the city of Weiding, this route is also the main direction of attack chosen by Murong Fuyun.

On the night of receiving the order, Lilan organized the young man to set off. He wanted to be the first to enter Weiding City before everyone else, because he took a fancy to the woman who followed Liu Ziqiu that day. He knew that it was Jinbo's woman. If everyone had entered the city, the woman would have to return to Kimbo. Only when he was the first to enter the city could he get the woman away and hide her unconsciously.

Unlike other tribes in the West Sea, the Dangxiang Qiang people are half-farming and half-pasture, and their diet includes a variety of grains in addition to beef and mutton. Most of the nomadic tribesmen, because of their meat-based diet, lacked a certain vitamin, and at night, they could not see clearly in the wild, that is, they suffered from what was later called night blindness. However, this does not happen because the Dangxiang Qiang people often eat grains and vegetables. The night march was not a difficult task for them.

After a strenuous march in the middle of the night, Lilan led his troops around the Qaidam Mountains and arrived at the south bank of the Tataleng River. He took a rudimentary sheepskin map, roughly estimated the distance, and saw if he could reach Tosu Lake before dawn, and saw a horse galloping in front of him, and the knight on the horse was dying with several arrows in his body, and it was the scout cavalry he had sent out.

Xifeng Ye Lilan was taken aback and asked, "Tell me quickly, what happened?" ”

The scout cavalry said intermittently: "Front, there is a large army of enemies ahead, enemy scouts, brothers, brothers are all dead......

Before he could finish his sentence, the scout cavalry died.

Those who can be selected as scout cavalry are not only first-class in cavalry and archery, but also very clever. If he was able to annihilate all the scout cavalry he sent out, the scale of the opposing scout cavalry was definitely not small. And the size of the scout cavalry often determines the size of the large army. Who will this army belong to? What are you doing here? Lilan muttered, and hurriedly ordered someone to light a torch and study the sheepskin map again.

According to Murong Fuyun, Liu Ziqiu had no more than 8,000 men under his command, and the number of cavalry was less than 3,000. In order to defend the city, it was impossible for Liu Ziqiu to send all the troops, at most 3,000 cavalry. With the strength of 3,000 cavalry, it is unrealistic to want to fight against the Xianbei army in the wasteland, and Liu Ziqiu will not be so stupid. If this army that suddenly appeared belonged to Liu Ziqiu, then what would be his purpose?

"Not good!" Fine Feng Ye Lilan's gaze suddenly fell on the Dachaidan Valley, "He wants to copy our back road!" ”

Xifeng Ye Lilan took the lead for Murong Fuyun, and he was a thief, and he also thought that Liu Ziqiu would deal with him. And he thinks that Liu Ziqiu's reasons will be very sufficient, no matter what, he can be regarded as a rival of Liu Ziqiu. Thinking of this, Xifeng Ye Lilan hurriedly ordered: "Quick, withdraw it!" ”

The horseman's riding skills were equally exquisite, and with this order, the front team changed to the rear team, and the rear team became the front team, and the army that was still marching to the east just now retreated westward like a tide. The fine seal Ye Lilan father and son were originally at the forefront of the team, but now they became broken.

Suddenly, he heard the hooves of horses behind him, and the scout cavalry actually found this place, and looking at the formation, there were hundreds of people.

The second son of Ye Lilan, who was also brave, couldn't hold back it for a long time, and said loudly: "Father, there are only a few hundred of them, kill them!" ”

Without waiting for Xifeng Ye Lilan to agree, he had already turned his horse's head and led more than 300 of his subordinates to kill him.
