"I'm sorry, lord, I ......"

"It's okay, you lie down first."

Xu Huabiao stretched out his hand and pressed Quan Nara on the bed.

Beside her, Xu Huabiao's guard group was basically gathered.

One by one, their companions looked worried.

"It's not very bad." Lin Yun'er said to Xu Huabiao next to her, "The doctor said that the main reason is that the body is weak due to not eating for too long, and it should be fine to rest for a few days." ”

"What's going on?" Xu Huabiao was also a little relieved when he heard Lin Yun'er say this.

"I was ordered by the lord to go to the Huns to buy horses." Although Quan Nara was lying down, she immediately replied: "At the beginning, we talked about it well, and even discussed it, 30,000 yuan, or the equivalent of grain for a horse." If the quantity is large, the price can be reduced a little. But suddenly I don't know what's wrong, their people turned their faces all of a sudden, directly detained me, and led troops to Luoyang. I managed to grab a horse and escape. ”

“…… How long will it take for them to get to Luoyang? Xu Huabiao's eyes narrowed.

"It should be soon. However, they were all cavalry, and although the march was fast, it was not so smooth to cross the Luo River......"

"Well, let Park Hyo-min prepare to meet the enemy." Xu Huabiao glanced at Li Yunxi.

"Okay, Childe." Li Yunxi nodded and walked out directly.

"You have a good rest. It's hard work this time. ”

"I'm sorry, my lord, but I didn't finish the mission......"

"It's okay, I don't blame you." Xu Huabiao shook his head, "This kind of thing...... Hmph, I'll make them regret it. ”

After speaking, Xu Huabiao reached out and patted Quan Nara's shoulder who was lying on the bed, and then walked out of the room where she was resting.

Back in the front hall, Bae Joo-hyun, Park Hyo-min and Park Ji-yeon have already arrived.

"Lord, the spies reported that less than two hundred miles north of the Luo River, a group of Xiongnu troops was discovered." Bae Joo-hyun reported to Xu Huabiao with a serious face.

"Well, I already know."

“…… How did the lord know? ”

"I had arranged for Quan Nara to go to them to buy horses, but they detained Quan Nara and brought the troops over...... Originally, the transaction price had already been negotiated, and I didn't know what was going on. ”

"I think it's better to grab it directly than to sell horses to us to make money, right?" Park Hyo-min snorted.

“…… You have a lot of point. Xu Huabiao was stunned.

Oh, yes! Work hard to raise horses to make money, how can you grab it directly!

These barbarians who don't follow the rules!

Xu Huabiao gritted his teeth.

"My lord, now we have two ways to deal with it." Bae Joo-hyun interjected beside him.

“…… Two ways to cope? You even figured out how to deal with it so quickly? Xu Huabiao's face was surprised.

"That's what I did. Otherwise, in the past six months, everyone has been busy, and I am idle......"

"You know that, too!" Xu Huabiao smiled.

Park Hyo-min and Park Ji-yeon, who were next to them, also laughed.

"Hmm......" Pei Zhuhyun glared at Xu Huabiao, and then said with a straight face: "The first plan is to stick to the city, the other party will definitely not last long when they come from afar with such a light horse, and when they are sleepy and tired, they can naturally break it with one blow." ”

"Then all the food outside the city will be gone." Xu Huabiao shook his head.

"That's the second option." Pei Zhuhyun nodded, "This Xiongnu has been attached for a hundred years, and seriously speaking, there are not too many Huns who have the ability to ride and shoot, so we can send troops to meet them head-on and repel them." ”

"The other side is cavalry, and our men are infantry, and they want to meet them head-on? I'm afraid it's hard. ”

"It's okay, if the lord is relieved about this matter, you can leave it to me, and I will go on the expedition with General Park Hyo-min." Pei Zhuxun looked serious, "The Huns will be blocked north of the Luo River, so that they will not come back!" ”

“…… Do you know that this is a military writ? ”

"If the Huns are allowed to cross the Luo River and disturb the people of Luoyang, Pei will come to see him!" Bae Joo-hyun said loudly.

Be quiet.

"Forget it, even if you let the Huns cross the river, I am reluctant to cut you. Your head is worth a lot more than Luoyang City. Xu Huabiao sighed softly, and then looked at Park Hyo-min who was next to him, "That Hyo-min, you...... Well, and Ji-yeon. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Park Ji-yeon.

"Let's take 15,000 soldiers and horses together to intercept the Huns. Let Bae Joo-hyun join the army for you, no problem, right? ”

"Yes! Lord! ”

Park Hyo-min and Park Ji-yeon bowed their hands to Xu Huabiao together.

At this time, Zhou Jieqiong walked into the lobby.

"What's going on? Why are you all so nervous? ”

Zhou Jieqiong had a smile on her face.

"What, what's the good news for you?"

"Yes! Caiyan's experiment was successful! Over here! Zhou Jieqiong took out a small iron ball from behind her.

There is a flare cord of hemp on it.

Xu Huabiao's eyelids jumped.

"Done?"

"Yes! Last night in the south of Zhou Mountain, just like this, a stone several people high collapsed. Zhou Jieqiong nodded seriously.

“…… So, now this thing can be mass-produced? ”

"Mass production? That's early! This iron shell on the outside is not easy to make! Be tight...... It's a lot of work to do. Zhou Jieqiong shook her head.

"That's ......" Xu Huabiao looked disappointed.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm thinking, if there are fifty of these things, this time the Hun disaster, as long as Nala and Jenna go to the other, it should be solved." Xu Huabiao sighed.

"Huns? The Huns called? Zhou Jieqiong instantly understood what was going on.

On the side, Bae Joo-hyun nodded.

"Well, that's no hope." Xu Huabiao glanced at the iron ball in Zhou Jieqiong's hand, "Xiaomin, hurry up and prepare to send troops to protect Luoyang!" ”

"Yes!" Park Hyo-min and the three took the order and left the hall.

Only Xu Huabiao and Zhou Jieqiong were left in the room.

The atmosphere was a bit quiet.

"What's wrong? Do not worry! With Xiaomin and Zhu Hyun here, the Huns can't cross the Luo River. Xu Huabiao smiled and rubbed Zhou Jieqiong's head.

"It's not...... Recently, the surroundings of Luoyang have not been very quiet. Zhang Dongjian in Nanyang in the south and Li Yanhao in the north...... Luoyang is actually a little bit of a floating person. This Hun is coming...... I'm afraid that the hearts of the people of Luoyang, who have finally settled down, will be messed up again. Zhou Jieqiong looked worried.

"Hmm......" Xu Huabiao nodded. But it is not our fault that the Huns came to provoke us. All we can do is kill them! ”

"That's what I said, but the hearts of the people in Luoyang ......"

"So be it. Let's find a way to divert the attention of the people. ”

Xu Huabiao thought about it and said.

“…… What is distraction? ”

"It's just that when they're fine, don't always think that there is a Hun outside approaching Luoyang City, but think about other things."

“…… What could be more worrying than the Huns? ”

"This ......," Xu Huabiao scratched his head.

Then, the eyes lit up.

"I thought of one."

"What?"

"Let's get married!"

“…… What did you say? ”

Zhou Jieqiong was stunned.

……
