"What's the situation?"

At this moment, Zhou Yue and the others were using a defensive formation to break into an abandoned town in front of them that had completely turned into ruins, and here, it was less than ten miles away from Tongliao Black City. {Starter}

Mao Yu, Hu Ke and other cavalry had already dispersed, constantly collecting the situation of Tongliao Black City, but what made all of them feel strange was that the Tongliao Black City was like a huge tomb, and there was not the slightest movement, even in the empty field, there was no trace.

"Nothing was found, like, like, this is a deserted city!" Tang Kun groaned.

"Oh? Could it be that someone captured this Tongliao Black City, but did not obtain the order of the city lord, thus turning this Tongliao Black City into a deserted city? Zhou Yue was also stunned when he heard this, thinking that Chishan City was like this at the beginning, if he hadn't killed Liu Pi and obtained the city lord's order, Chishan City would have been abandoned within a month.

"It's only possible, but what I don't understand is that there shouldn't be such a strong resistance force near Tongliao, right? Also, the forces that initially occupied the Black City of Tongliao seem to have no corresponding information. Tang Kun nodded, and then said: "I think, it's better for us to have more than one thing to do, let's quickly detour to the past, before this afternoon, we must rush to Tieling." ”

And Tang Kun's words had just fallen, and suddenly a group of men and horses were killed in the Tongliao Black City in the distance, all of them were cavalry, and they rushed over with a roar, but the target was the cavalry scouts scattered by Zhou Yue and Tang Kun.

Everyone was relieved at this time, as long as there was an enemy, what they were most worried about was that kind of strange thing, and immediately Tang Kun ordered his men and horses to rely on the town and prepare for war.

However, when Zhou Yue and Tang Kun used binoculars to observe the team of people and horses that were killed, they were surprised to find that those people were not ancient forces at all, they were all human beings, and looking at their level, they were not very high, basically around level 15, but one thing was very different, the riding level of these people was very high, it was estimated that they were at least lv3 or above, and they were all carrying bows and arrows and holding sabers, very fierce!

Since they found that the other party was human, Zhou Yue and Tang Kun didn't have the heart to fight with them, and issued an order to rein in the scouts, and at this time, the team of about hundreds of people killed on the opposite side also noticed this, slowed down their charge, stopped three miles away, and sent two people forward.

"Who are you? This is ours, you are not welcome, get out of here! At this time, when the two people came to Zhou Yue and Tang Kun and the others two hundred meters away, they reined in the war horse and said loudly in very stiff Chinese, with a very unfriendly expression.

"It's a herdsman! They are the only ones who have such good riding skills. Tang Kun whispered, then stepped forward and said loudly: "Hello, my name is Tang Kun, we are from the army, we don't have any malicious intentions, we just want to pass by here, can I ask you a few questions?" ”

The two herdsmen seemed to hesitate for a moment and glanced at each other, and one of the bronzed men shook his hand impatiently and said, "I don't believe you, I don't know the answer to your question, go away, you are not welcome here!" ”

Tang Kun touched his nose, but he didn't get angry, just said patiently: "Okay, we'll leave immediately, but there are only a few hundred of you, it's too dangerous, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can go to Tieling, there is an army there, and it can protect you!" ”

After Tang Kun finished speaking, he retreated and ordered his convoy to pass through Guò quickly, and now he was in a hurry to Tieling, so he didn't have the heart to stay here.

And Zhou Yue was a little curious to look at the two herdsmen, and the equipment on them, there is no doubt that they also killed the soldiers of a certain force, and then they could gradually grow up, but that force was not the Yellow Turban Army, nor the Eight Banners, but another force.

"Which force will it be? Why did this Tongliao Black City become a deserted city? ”

Zhou Yue thought secretly in his heart, but he also had no intention of staying here, since this Tongliao Black City had become a deserted city, there was no potential for development, and a few hundred herdsmen could not pose any threat.

The whole team quickly bypassed Tongliao Heicheng, during which it was normal, until it was more than twenty miles away, Tang Kun came to Zhou Yue's side very mysteriously, and said with a smile: "I know what is going on in Tongliao Heicheng, my scout battalion caught a lone guy just now, according to what he said, the force that appeared in this Tongliao Heicheng is the Khitan royal family, Yelu Abaoji, you know, the one who established the Liao Dynasty, however, they did not have time to develop, and on the second day after the disaster broke out, they were defeated by the Eight Banners army, Then Yelu Abaoji should have fled with the order of the city lord, but he never came back after escaping, and finally this Tongliao Black City became an ownerless deserted city, and the Eight Banners Army also evacuated here. ”

"Oh? I see, so that group of herdsmen really picked up a huge bargain. Zhou Yue was not too surprised when he heard this, the grassland is vast, in addition to the Mongolian iron cavalry, there should be no less other tribes, the Khitan is one, the Xiongnu of the Han Dynasty, the Wuhu of the Western Jin Dynasty, and the Turks of the Tang Dynasty, these forces should all appear, but because the grassland is vast and sparsely populated, many forces have not been counted, or the human beings who know these forces have been killed.

"You say that, it seems to be good, they really picked up a big bargain, do you know the Queen Mother Xiao Guanyin in the Khitan royal family?" Tang Kun continued to smile, but there was something strange in that smile.

"Xiao Guanyin? Who's that? I only know South Murong and North Qiao Feng! Zhou Yue said disappreciatively.

"Okay, let me put it simply, after the Khitan royal family was defeated by the Eight Banners Army, due to the loss of Tongliao Black City, it also became a rootless duckweed, coupled with the pursuit of the Eight Banners Army, now all of them have become horse thieves, and the hundreds of herdsmen we met just now are actually a Khitan horse thieves who surrendered, and the leader of this group of horse thieves is Xiao Guanyin! I heard that she is a one-star general, and in history, she is also a famous beauty, and she can be called a talented woman! Tang Kun said with a little emotion, but immediately saw Zhou Yue's strange gaze, and hurriedly said: "Don't think about it, don't you think it's strange, why would this Xiao Guanyin let us leave?" I'm sure she's in the middle of that black city! ”

"There's nothing strange about it, she wants to rob us, she has to have that strength first, but does she have it?" Zhou Yue sneered, he had thought that group of herdsmen were very strange before, but now it seems that this is indeed the case.

"In that case, why don't we kill it? Xiao Guanyin, as the Empress Dowager of Khitan, must not be too bad for the items dropped. Tang Kun said suddenly, and this should be the real purpose of his words to Zhou Yue, although Zhou Yue and his party are only forty-six people, but their strength is too strong, if he wants to take any action, he must consider Zhou Yue's attitude.

"Kill back? Don't you have to rush to the road? ”

"Of course, it takes a lot to hurry, but with you Zhou Yue here, taking Tongliao Black City is just a matter of a snap of your fingers, kill Xiao Guanyin, all the drops, you can pick and choose!"

"I'm not interested!" Zhou Yue shook his head slightly, he was really not interested, his goal now was to rush to Tieling Black City as quickly as possible, find that desolate beast, and kill it, because if he waited for the Eight Banners army to break through Tieling Black City, this opportunity would be gone.

As for the reason why Tang Kun is so enthusiastic, it must not be to see the beauty of Xiao Guanyin, but his team is currently in desperate need of top masters, and any one-star battle general is estimated to be shining in his eyes, especially this kind of down-and-out one-star general who has become a horse thief, how could he let it go in vain?

Sure enough, Tang Kun did not give up his plan because of Zhou Yue's refusal, it was one thing to rush to the aid of Tieling, and it was another thing to enhance his own strength, if he could kill another one-star general, so that he would not be too embarrassed in the face of the strong pressure on Zhou Yue's side.

"Okay, my people will kill back, and the battle will end in an hour at the latest, Zhou Yue, you can go first, or you can wait, as you like!"

After Tang Kun finished speaking, he immediately gave an order, and his seven thousand men and horses quickly turned around and slaughtered towards Tongliao Black City like a fierce god.

"Brother Zhou, why don't we make a move? is just a one-star general, I promise that Tang Kun will not be robbed, Xiao Guanyin, such a big beauty was killed by Tang Kun, what a pity! Chu Liuyun, who was on the side at this time, couldn't help but ask.

"Don't talk nonsense, go full speed, before noon, you must rush to the bottom of Tieling Black City!" Zhou Yue shouted in a deep voice, and then everyone jumped on their horses and whipped up, and galloped all the way.

Tongliao is located in the grassland, the terrain is gentle, endless, just suitable for horses to run wildly, and there is no even need to move along the road, it is extremely happy, Zhou Yue and other forty-six horses, in a blink of an eye, they rushed out of dozens of miles, and the front is still a horse Pingchuan, occasionally you can meet many small villages or very distinctive yurts, but they are all sparsely populated, let alone sheep, it is estimated that they have already fed those mutant black wolves.

"Huh! Brother Zhou, there is a situation! Look at the heavens! ”

Just when Zhou Yue and the others were wantonly riding their horses, He Qingming suddenly shouted, and everyone looked at the sky when they heard the sound, but saw that in the sky at a height of thousands of meters, a pure black eagle was hovering with them.

"An eagle!" Liang Xiaoxue cheered in surprise, she probably had never seen it with her own eyes, of course, Zhou Yue and many others had not seen it with their own eyes, so they stopped their horses for a while and looked up, most of them were curious.

"Brother Zhou, I see that there is something wrong with this eagle, it has been following us for a while, could it be the kind of legendary falcon that can detect the whereabouts of the enemy?" He Qingming said again at this time.

And as soon as she said this, everyone immediately became vigilant, and Zhou Yue was even more frightened, the falcon has long been extinct in modern society, but now in this era of the Black City, it is possible, so he immediately ordered: "Qingming, shoot it down!" ”

"Good!"

He Qingming responded crisply, quickly took off the frost longbow, and raised his hand to pierce the air with an arrow!

It's just that what stunned Zhou Yue and the others was that the eagle seemed to have been professionally trained to dodge feather arrows, and the moment He Qingming opened his bow, he directly spread his wings and flew far away, and soon disappeared into the distance, leaving only the stunned crowd.
