Chapter Eighty-Three: The Sand Sea Strikes
Zhao Wu was silent for a while, and said to Lu Yishuang: "In a few years, they will be another batch of good soldiers!" ”。
Lu Yishuang smiled slightly, "Not everyone is suitable to be a soldier!" I hope they will have more options in the future. If you want to be a soldier and a general, or just open a shop, or if you want to be Zhao Daxia, you like to travel all over the world. Instead of liking it or not, you can only go to be a soldier! ”。
"You're really different!" Zhao Wu glanced at her deeply, "If my master could meet you back then, he would definitely like it!" ”。
Mu Hibiscus gave her a cloak and persuaded: "It's windy in the city, so let's go back, Miss!" ”。
"It's okay, I'm not cold!" Lu Yishuang said softly: "You say, where are they now?" ”。
More than a thousand miles to the north, a few people were crouching on the sand dunes, looking at the Hu settlement on the shore of the small lake in the oasis below.
"Let's go, let's go back and tell the general!" The man at the front spit out the grass roots in his mouth and whispered.
The others all nodded. Quietly slide down the dunes and pull the horses out of hiding. After walking far, he turned over his horse and ran into the distance.
Han Xiuqi was snuggling behind the horse with a few people, whispering something. Suddenly, I heard someone shouting, "The sixth son is back!" ”。
A puff of dust rose with the horse's hooves, and Han Xiuqi smiled as Xiao Liu rushed over with the horse.
It turned out that the fair-skinned and immature boy had been tortured into a rough man by the wind and sun in the wasteland.
Han Xiuqi himself is no better! With unkempt hair and a full beard, he almost couldn't tell that he was the handsome young general at the beginning.
"How's it going?" Han Xiuqi greeted him with a smile.
"Fortunately, this tribe is not big, only more than 300 accounts, counting the old, weak, sick and disabled, there are no more than 2,000 people. Less than half of them can play. I think we should be able to take it down! ”。 Xiao Liu nodded and said.
"General, let's go and make it!" Xu Bijiang on the side immediately said excitedly.
"Okay!" Han Xiuqi smiled and said: "It's been more than a month since we came out, and after this ticket is finished, let's go back!" ”。
"Yes! I think there's already a bearded person behind our buttocks! General Xu Bi also said in a deep voice: "For the sake of safety, we should also go back, this place is too far from Fulongling!" ”。
At night, a blazing bonfire was lit in the lake, and the returning herdsmen gathered around the fire, playing the piano and singing, which was very unpleasant.
The sound of the song and piano reached Han Xiuqi's ears along the wind, and Han Xiuqi's face was full of solemnity.
This tribe is not small, and it will not be easy to conquer it in one fell swoop.
"These bearded people have a good day, but they have to run to our side to burn and loot, I really can't fucking figure it out!" Someone couldn't help but babble.
"This is their life!" Han Xiuqi said coldly: "Now they are herdsmen with filial piety to their fathers and sons, and when it comes to autumn and winter, they are butchers who kill people without blinking!" Don't be merciful! ”。
"No, General! Everyone has also experienced it this month, and these are all known! Xu Bi said.
When they first came out, some recruits hesitated at a few old and weak women and children, and were shot down by the other party's cold arrows.
Since then, no one has dared to take it lightly.
"Go, get on the horse, kill it!" Han Xiuqi cut down with one palm and shouted coldly.
"Kill!" Hundreds of people led their horses out of the dunes. Qi Qi turned over and got on his horse, and the horse quickly lifted up, and ran over towards the small lake camp.
"Enemy attack, there are horse thieves!" Before the Hu people who were watching on the hill could finish their words, they were shot through the throat by an arrow flying from the sky.
By the time the people in the Xiaohu camp hurriedly threw down their musical instruments and roasted meat and went to the tent to get their weapons, the rumbling horses' hooves had already stomped on their heads and faces.
Suddenly the horses neighed, and the Hu people cursed loudly and ran in all directions. Some had already taken their swords and turned to meet them, but they were kicked down by the horses' hooves, followed by a flash of silver light, and bloody arrows burst out.
In less than a cup of tea, the war horse had already killed a pair in the camp. Han Xiuqi made a turn, and Tima stepped again.
As he passed by the fire, he picked up his spear and flew the wood with the flame towards the surrounding tents. Suddenly, several fireheads burst into flames, illuminating the surroundings even brighter.
Some sturdy herdsmen rushed out of their tents, shouting and pounced.
The spear in Han Xiuqi's hand was like a poisonous dragon, and as soon as he handed it over, he stabbed it through his heart. followed the spear scattering, picking seven people in a row.
"Good marksmanship!" Xu Bi rode his horse past from the side, and he didn't forget to admire.
"Be careful!" Han Xiuqi reminded.
Pierced back and forth twice, and the corpse staggered to the ground. The blood soaked the sand and began to seep into the small lake!
"Let's go!" Han Xiuqi shouted, and immediately the whole team immediately left the battlefield and ran into the distance.
In this battle, nearly 1,000 enemies were annihilated, and Han Xiuqi's headquarters also suffered more than 40 casualties.
"Take the brothers and let's go home!" The night breeze in the desert is also quite cold in the summer.
Finally, it was about to dawn, facing the rising sun in the east, Han Xiuqi shouted loudly.
"Go home, go home!" The crowd shouted in unison.
Just two hours after Han Xiuqi and the others left the battlefield, a group of cavalry drove into the Xiaohu camp.
"It's too late!" Looking at the corpses and the messy camp on the ground, the man's eyes immediately became gloomy.
"Look for it, see if there's anyone alive!" He raised his head slightly, and his deep eyes and stiff hooked nose made people even more cold.
"Yes, Lord Wang!" The strong man on the side replied in a deep voice.
After a long time, someone rode a horse from a distance.
"Lord Wang, find a few people!"
A few panicked faces threw themselves down from their horses and knelt at the feet of the hook-nosed man.
"Your Royal Highness, King Qiancheng, we have been attacked by horse bandits! The old man, the child, all dead, dead! Several people cried out.
"How many are there?" King Qiancheng asked coldly.
"It's dark at night, I can't see clearly, there are probably more than a thousand people!" The man replied tremblingly.
"Who knows?" King Qiancheng swept the few people lying at his feet, suppressed his anger and asked.
"It's a horse bandit! Look at their clothes, it's horse bandits! ”
"Whew!" King Qiancheng sneered, "It's useless to keep it if you're so blind!" Cut them all for me! ”。
"Yes!" Several of the guards pounced on them like wolves.
Those people got up and fled, but where was the hurry! After a few steps, he wailed and was cut to the ground.
The corners of King Qiancheng's mouth rose, and with a sneer, he slowly paced. A few kicks on the corpses of several people, "What horse bandits?" That's Han Chinese! A bunch of idiots! ”。
"Lord, what are we going to do? Do you want to keep chasing? A guard came up and asked in a low voice.
"They must be from Fulong City, pass the order down, let the various tribe organizations intercept it, and make sure that these people can't return to Fulong City alive." King Qiancheng said in a deep voice.
Fulong City is the surrendered city! But the people of the Northern Desert will not admit it. The last time they submitted their credentials in Fulong City and announced their surrender, the Qi people renamed Fulong City as the Surrendered City in order to humiliate them.
This is the greatest humiliation for the people of the Northern Desert, and it is impossible for every bloody steppe man to bear it.
