Chapter 5
According to Turkic rules, a daughter who marries out cannot return to Ning, unless she is married to her husband's family
Abandonment. So every time Ah Niang is always happy to send me to meet Ah Weng and visit her for her
Those relatives of the Turks. I secretly told my mother about this plan, and she was not happy for me to marry
When I went to the Central Plains, she didn't want me to marry the Yue family, so she prepared Qing Shui He for me without telling her father
Dry food, while my father was not in the royal city, quietly sent me away.
I rode the little red horse and ran towards the Tianqian Mountain.
Wangcheng is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and from west to north is the Yanzhi Mountain, a towering mountain range
Like a winding dragon, and like the outstretched arms of a giant, encircling the royal city and blocking the wind
The sand and cold air make the royal city at the foot of the mountain a warm oasis. To the east is the sky
It is a lonely high mountain, like the kind of screen sold by merchants in the Central Plains, high
The ground is stuck in the clouds for half a day, and the top of the mountain is still covered with snow, and it is said that no one can climb it
Go. Bypassing it, it is the boundless grassland with abundant water and grass, which is the hometown of A-Niang.
When I went out of the city, I left a note for my master, who has been very busy lately, since then
After Gu Xiaowu came, I couldn't see him. I think I'll have to go to the Turks
I won't be able to come back until the winter, so I left him a note telling him not to forget to feed me
Abba and Asha in his backyard. Abba and Asha are two little gerbils by accident
Caught. My father wouldn't allow me to keep gerbils in my bed, so I kept them in my teacher's place
Fu there.
Taking advantage of the cool weather, I followed the caravan that went out of the city at night and left the royal city, the caravan
They all went west, and I was the only one who turned east.
The desert is so quiet at night, and the black velvety sky seems to be low enough to reach out,
And the stars, one by one, low, big and bright, reminiscent of grape leaves
The dew on it is so cool. I crossed the large sand dunes and saw sparse sparse stalks
Grass, make sure you're not on the wrong path. I walk this trail almost every year
But at that time there were always cavalry sent by my grandfather, and today I am the only one
Personally. The little red horse ran briskly, heading in the direction the Big Dipper pointed. I'm open
I thought in my heart that Ah Weng, who saw me this time, must let the slaves arrest me for me
Birds that can only sing.
I felt very sleepy when it was almost dawn, and the red sun was almost coming out
Now, the eastern sky began to glow with a light purple glow, and the stars were long gone, and the sky was
The blue-gray has a kind of white, like the slaves turning over the freshly peeled sheepskin, and still carrying it
The heat of the new section was like steaming, and half of the sky was filled with a light morning mist. I know I have to look
Take a rest in a place, the sun can kill people in the near noon, and it is not a good time to hurry
Wait.
Wading through a shallow river, I found a shady hill, so I turned over and dismounted.
Let the horses graze by themselves, and sleep soundly with their own dry food. Sleep until
The sun was setting in the west, and it was very uncomfortable to burn my face, and I woke up.
I took the dry food out of the package to eat, drank another half bag of water, and refilled the bladder
full, only to whistle.
In a moment I heard the hoofs of the little red horse, and it ran merrily towards me.
Snorting. After a while, he ran in front of me and licked my hand affectionately. I touched
Its mane: "Have you eaten enough?" ”
It's a pity that it can't speak, but it looks at me with its big warm eyes
The light reflects my own shadow. I patted it on the neck, and it suddenly became restless
Hiss.
I think it's a little strange that the little red horse keeps scraping the grass with its front hooves, like ten
Dividing the restlessness, is there a wolf nearby?
The wolves in the steppe are the most terrifying, they come in packs, dare to fight lions, and are alone
of shepherds will also be in danger when they encounter them. But now it's autumn, and it's the time when the water and grass are abundant
Wait, there are yellow sheep and hares everywhere, and the wolves have plenty of food, and it is easy to hide in the mountains
Down, shouldn't haunt here.
But the little red horse is so irritable, there must be a reason for it. I rolled over and went on
Walking is the foot of Tianqing Mountain, turning the foot of the mountain is the junction of Turkic and Xiliang, A-Niang sent early
Someone sent a letter to Awn, and someone would be there to answer me. Or go to a place where there are people than Safer.
The horse had just galloped out of Rich, when he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves. I stood on the back of a horse and looked into the distance, and I could faintly see a line of black and gray in the distance, and there seemed to be a lot of people and horses. Could it be
My father sent men after me? It was too far away to see the banner of the cavalry. I
Feeling very uneasy, he could only urge the horse to gallop towards Tianqing Mountain. If I rushed into the spurt
In the territory of Turkish, when I met Ah Weng's people, Daddy couldn't force me back.
The pursuers are getting closer and closer, and the little red horse is like an arrow from the string, on the vast grassland
Run wild. But there is no shelter between heaven and earth, although the little red horse is amazing, but sooner or later
will be overtaken.
I kept looking back at the pursuers, and they were very close, at least nearly a thousand
Ride. On the grassland, such a cavalry is really amazing, even if it is a father, I am afraid
I won't easily mobilize so many people, and if I really come to chase me, it's too much of a fuss
did. As I rode my horse, I wondered to myself where this was coming from
What about soldiers?
It didn't take long for the little red horse to gallop to the foot of Tianqing Mountain, and I saw a few from afar
The small black dot, the long voice in the ear, is the tone of the Turkic pastoral song, familiar and intimate
Che, I thought to myself that it must be someone sent by Aung to pick me up. So I desperately clamped the horse's belly,
Urge the little red horse to run faster, faster, faster. The Turks saw me, too, him
They got on horseback and waved to me desperately.
I waved desperately at them, and behind me were the pursuers of the Iron Cavalry, them
Definitely saw it too. The horse was running faster and closer, and I saw the Turkic white
The flag, its long tail was blown out by the evening wind, like a floating in the air
in the fish. The man who holds the flag, I know, is the most favored archer in front of Aweng's tent.
He saw the blackened cavalry on the horizon catching up, and immediately slammed the flag into the rock
and then took off the bow on his back.
I saw the difference on the back of the galloping horse, and hurriedly shouted, "I don't know who it is."
Know! "Even though they kept chasing me, I was trying to figure out what those were
Who.
My horse rushed past the lost body for more than ten feet before slowly coming to a halt.
The clusters of arrows in the hands of dozens of archers behind him shimmered blue in the slanting sun. he
East Palace 184
They squinted at the cavalry that was catching up, and they rode around me
Suddenly, he greeted me with a smile: "Hello, little princess." ”
Although I am not a Turkic princess, I have been a Turk since I was a child because of my mother
That's what the great man in front of the tent called me. When I saw Heshi, I felt very relieved,
Even the pursuers of the thousand horsemen behind him immediately forgot about it, and said to him happily: "He
Lost, you're okay! ”
The iron horsemen were no more than two arrows away from us, and the earth shook and the ears roared
The rumble was full of hooves. "Huh!" Hesh sighed, his smile hurting even more
Soon, "So many people, are you here to fight with us?" "He's lost his way
As I spoke, I opened my bow and fastened the arrow to the string, and beside him was the Turkic white
The flag was blown by the wind and sounded "hulahula". In the steppe, any tribe sees this
banner, you know that the warriors of Tierghada Da Danyu are here, if anyone dares to be right
The Turkic warriors will use force, and the Turkic cavalry will surely level their tents and kill them
The people have taken away their cattle and sheep. Outside the Jade Gate, no one dared to face this white
The flag is disrespectful!
But seeing those cavalry rushing closer and closer, menacing, it was clear that there was no at all
There is the same as seeing the flag. The golden rays of the setting sun shone on their iron armor, reflecting it
A clear iron color, I suddenly inhaled sharply.
This is the cavalry of the Yue clan, light armor, saddle sheath, helmet...
I can still tell that this is the cavalry of the Yue Clan. I haven't been to Yueshi though, but
I have been to the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, where I have seen the Yue's people practice. Their horses are good horses,
The armor is bright, the bow and arrow are sharp, and the knight is brave and good at fighting. Heshi also recognized, and he replied
The head looked at me and said to me, "Princess, you go east first, and go around the Binli River, great."
The king's tent of Shan Yu is on the east side of the river. ”
I shouted, "If you want to fight, I don't want to run away alone." ”
He nodded in admiration and handed me his own saber, and I took the corner
knife, but there is a layer of sweat in the palms of the hands. I know the power of the Yue's cavalry, let alone now
There are so many people on the other side, and the black pressure is shaking like a mountain, although He Shi is a sharpshooter, but there are only a few dozen people on our side, I am afraid that we will not be able to stop the other party no matter what.
Seeing the cavalry getting closer and closer, I felt like I couldn't even hold my sword. although
However, since I was a child, I felt that I would not lose to my brothers, but to be honest, go into battle to kill the enemy, this is okay
What a first time.
The white flag is behind us, "hula" ringing, at the end of the grassland, too
The sun fell minute by minute, and countless grasses were blown up and down by the wind, like a desert
The sand dunes were blown by the wind. Suddenly it was cold between heaven and earth, and I blinked
Eye, because there is a sweat dripping into the corner of the eye, the spicy sting makes me feel so sad.
The cavalry saw the white banner, and the momentum finally slowed down, and they set up their formation
momentum, gradually approaching. Hesh said loudly: "Here is the Turkic Heshin, your horse."
When you set foot on the Turkic steppe, do you want to go to war without declaring it? ”
Heshin is a famous archer who moves thousands of miles, and Heshin is in the Turkic language, originally
It means arrow. Legend has it that if he wanted to shoot the left eyeball of a wild goose in the sky, he would never do so
Dayan's right eyeball, so Da Danyu is very fond of him. Sure enough, those people heard what was lost
The name couldn't help but shake, and a man came out on horseback and muttered a lot
Speech. I don't understand Yue's words at all, but I can't stop translating them to me, it turns out
These people say they lost a slave and that's why they chased after them, but no
It is the territory of the Turks, because it is right at the foot of Tianqing Mountain, in fact, it is the Yueshi, the Turks and the Western Liang
The border has always been a place of three things, if you insist on saying that it is the territory of the Turks, also
It's a bit reluctant.
"Lost slaves?" I couldn't help but repeat inexplicably, the leader
The general of the Yue clan raised his horsewhip and pointed at me, and said another word. It's like a loss
Hu was very angry and said loudly: "Princess, he actually said that you are the one they lost
Slave. ”
I couldn't help but get angry, pulled out my knife and said, "Nonsense! ”
Heschu nodded, "It's just an excuse for them." ”
The general of the Nayue clan began to murmur again, and I asked Heyu, "What did he say?"
Is it? ”
East Palace 186
"He said that if we don't hand you over, he will lead his troops to kill you and take it. suddenly
The slaves of the Yue people were hidden, and if the two countries were at war because of this matter, they would also be Turkic
It doesn't make sense. ”
I was so angry that I laughed instead: "He is so unreasonable now, and he still dares."
It makes no sense to say that we have no reason. ”
He lost a deep voice and said: "What the little princess said is true, but there are many people on the other side, and it is against the little princess."
The Lord is coming..." He said to me, "Little princess, go east first to find the king's tent and bring reinforcements."
Soldiers come over. The Yue clan is arrogant and rude, if we can't stop them, we will definitely report the big order
Yu knows, don't let them plot. ”
Speaking of which, Heshi still wants to say that I will retreat first. I was scared though, but
He still straightened his chest and said loudly: "You send someone else to report the news, I won't leave!" ”
He lost and said quietly: "The little princess is here, and He lost no one to protect it."
Protect. ”
I thought about it for a moment, and what he said was very clear, if I were here, I was afraid that it would really be
Drag them down. Although I am good at archery, I have never fought a battle
The rest of the people here are all battle-hardened Turkic warriors.
"Okay." I tightened my grip on the handle of my knife and said, "I'll tell the news!" ”
Heschu nodded, untied the water bladder from his saddle, and said to me, "Keep going."
Three hundred miles to the east, if you can't find the king's tent of the big single Yu, you can also turn to the north, the king of the left valley
It shouldn't be far, it's not more than a hundred miles away. ”
"I take care of it."
Heshi slammed the back of his knife on my horse and shouted, "Duh! ”
The little red horse jumped out, and the cavalry of the Yue clan made a noise, but the little red horse castrated
Extremely fast, like a bolt of lightning, it rushed out of Richh in an instant. I kept looking back
looked, I saw the Yue's cavalry pressing up, like an ant who was going to move before the rain
And Heshi and dozens of Turkic cavalry were surrounded by them, like ants pressed by the black
Surrounded by millet grains. Another Yue's cavalry escaped and tried to pursue me, but they couldn't catch up with ten horses
body, they were shot one after another - although Heshi was surrounded, every arrow must be hit, the Yue's cavalry
None of them could dodge his arrows, and those centaurs kept falling and rolling to the ground
There was no one to catch up. The little red horse ran faster and faster, except for the white flag, its
Everything that remained faded in the last rays of twilight, and the sky was dark, and the night was overshadowed
Cut.
I rode my horse and galloped on the grassland, without stars or moons, so stuffy that it seemed to be dripping. I've never seen this kind of weather before, but I'm afraid it's going to rain heavily. Meet on the prairie
Heavy rain was a terrible thing, and when I looked up at the sky, it was dark and dreary, like a mouthful
The upside-down iron pot has no stars and moons, and the direction is difficult to identify, so I am really worried that I have gone wrong
Road. There are actually no roads on the grassland, just random trespassing. I rode horses in the dark
Galloped for half a night, but fortunately those Yueshi people didn't catch up. But neither did he
When I broke through, I was worried about the safety of Heshi, and I was worried that I had gone to the wrong side
Xiang, anxious and angry, but didn't cry. At this time, just listen to the "click"
With a bang, a long purple lightning pierced the dark and dreary night, illuminating the eyes instantly.
Then the rumbling thunder rang out.
It's really going to rain, so you have to find a way to avoid it. Flashes of lightning seemed to freeze
Straight snakes, scurrying around on the dark clouds hanging low in the sky, I took this one like a tight
of electric light, see the rocks in the distance. It turned out that I had been running along the Tiangan Mountain, and this one had run
In the middle of the night, it was still at the foot of Tianqing Mountain.
It's better to find a boulder to avoid than to die in the rain. I urge the horse forward, small
The red horse deftly stepped over the rocks, and I was afraid that the gravel would hurt the horse's hooves, so I turned over and dismounted.
Lead the horse to the mountains. The heavy rain has already "roared" down, and the thick white cow tendons
It was like rain pumping on people, and it hurt and hurt. The rain poured through my garments and ran down my forehead
The hair flowed into my eyes, I could barely open my eyes, and wiped a handful of water from my face,
Finally, I saw a big rock, which suddenly hung out, and it was a good place to shelter from the rain
At.
I led the little red horse and climbed under the boulder, and there one man and one horse huddled there, and it was raining outside
The sound rumbled, the rain was so rapid and fierce that I thought of Heshi, and I couldn't tell the burden in my heart
East Palace 188
Worried. The little red horse was half-kneeling under the stone, and seemed to understand my anxiety, and from time to time he stuck out his tongue
Head up, licking my palm. I hugged the little red horse's neck and muttered, "I don't know."
"The rain was falling very quickly, and the water that flowed down from the mountains was on the rocks
The front rush converged into a white curtain of water, and the misty mist splashed under the stones, and it was like one
It rained lightly.
I don't know how long the rain lasted, but finally it stopped. Outside the rocks
There was still water, like a stream, and it was "whooshing". And the wind blows, heavenly
The dark clouds lifted, revealing a bright moon.
I couldn't help but sneeze, my clothes were soaking wet and sticking to my body, and then let the wind one
Blow, it's really cold. But the velvet I wore on me had already been drenched in the rain, here
There was no dry wood, and there was no way to make a fire.
The sound of the water outside gradually subsided, and the little red horse leaned over affectionately, warm
The tongue licked my face, and I thought that since the rain had stopped, I should hurry down the mountain and continue searching
Road.
