It is said that people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, and the clothes on the body will indeed affect a person's appearance, many people will look very ordinary once they change into ordinary clothes, but there are always some people who are exceptions.

When Aria came out from behind the big rock, she did not lose the femininity that is unique to women because she changed into men's clothes, but added a bit of heroism.

Otherwise, many people can accept women dressing up as men! Because some women do look handsome and handsome when they wear men's clothes, and Alia happens to be such a woman.

If you don't look closely, you will only feel that she is a handsome young man from the Western Regions who is a little shorter at this time.

Although there is always some feminine temperament revealed in her gestures, standing there without moving or speaking, she really looks like a handsome teenager.

"Yes, as long as you ride on a camel and don't speak, and cover your face half with a cloth, no one should see that you are a woman."

It seemed that Lao Wu was very satisfied with Aliya after changing clothes, and turned his head to Shao Xi and said, "Let's catch up with the caravan quickly!" If you have been separated like this for too long, you will always feel unsettled. ”

Shao Xi nodded, beckoning everyone to ride their camels and rush in the direction where the caravan had just left, and it was estimated that it would not take long to catch up.

Shao Xi specially arranged for Fu Biao to follow Sun Poyun's side, after all, he was now dressed as Ariya, and there were always one or two people around him who looked like guards, so that it would be more deceptive.

He himself followed Aliya after changing into men's clothes, on the surface it seemed that they were just two men traveling with him, but in fact, the person who was really protecting Alia had been replaced by Shao Xi.

Sun Poyun did not have the slightest opinion on such an arrangement, he knew that Shao Xi's martial arts were actually far higher than his own, and with Shao Xi protecting Alia, he felt more down-to-earth.

All he had to do now was to dress up Alia and let the sneak attackers come at him.

It didn't take long for a few people to catch up with the caravan.

According to Shao Xi's previous arrangement, Sun Poyun came to the center of the team instead of Aliya, and Shao Xi took the real Alia to walk behind the team that was originally in charge of Fu Biao.

This creates the illusion that the most important person is still in the middle of the line, and that only the guards behind the team are in charge.

This position is quite dangerous, but Shao Xi adheres to the concept that the most dangerous place is often the safest, and deliberately puts himself and Alia in this more dangerous position, and it is estimated that the other party would not expect Shao Xi to make such an arrangement.

From the time Shao Xi and the others caught up with the caravan, the speed of the caravan had obviously increased again, just to be able to leave the White Night Country earlier.

Once they enter the territory of Wuhai Kingdom, they will be relatively safe, although it is not ruled out that these people will risk breaking into the territory of Wuhai Country to continue the pursuit, but at least it increases the chance of encountering Wuhai State cavalry.

Some uncertainties are often the biggest deterrent, and if you are entangled by cavalry in the desert, it is very troublesome whether you are a horse bandit or an assassin.

Therefore, Shao Xi is betting that the other party will not dare to chase into Wuhai Country, but despite this, he must hurry up, and if he is lucky, he may be able to enter Wuhai territory before the other party makes his last move.

In that case, everything will be fine!

But this is just Shao Xi's wish, he knows that the other party will not give up the last chance easily, and there is a high probability that there will be a more fierce fight between the two sides at the border between the two countries.

At the moment, almost everyone in the caravan was well aware of the current situation, and no one complained about it, after all, Alia's status was too special.

If the caravan can save Princess Alia this time, the business of Taihe Trading House in Wuhai Country will only be smoother and smoother in the future.

When the business of the caravan is good, the remuneration of those who make a living from the caravan will naturally increase, and in the final analysis, it is all due to interests.

Nothing happened again during the day and night of the caravan's journey, and the second sneak attack of the other side must have missed, and it would take a little time for the losses and tactical adjustments in the hands of the people.

So this day and night, Shao Xi didn't have too much to worry about.

After a night's rest, when setting off in the early morning, Shao Xi once again reminded everyone that the caravan was about to leave the White Night Border today.

Whether it is to rush to the border between the White Night Country and the Wuhai Country in advance, or to arrive at dusk as expected, they will inevitably face a surprise attack that is much stronger than the previous two times, so everyone should be mentally prepared.

Now this matter has become unavoidable, although the caravan of Taihe Commercial Bank is just a business team, and it should not be involved in this turmoil, but it has happened, and it can't be avoided if you want to.

What's more, the caravan also suffered a lot of losses after suffering these two attacks, and Taihe Commercial Bank, as one of the largest trading houses in the Central Plains, had its caravan harassed and attacked again and again in the desert, and it was naturally shameful to look back and say it.

Now that it has been involved, there is no need to back down.

If you can make a name for yourself on the Western Regions Trade Road through this matter, Taihe Commercial Bank will become unimpeded on the business road of the Western Regions in the future, so that the young people on this commercial road will also be afraid of Taihe Commercial Bank.

The caravan of the big trading house must have the appearance of a large trading house, and maybe in the future, the Taihe trading house will be able to develop a branch industry like a dart.

When the time comes, other commercial banks will also take the initiative to cooperate with Taihe Commercial Bank, in order to open up the Western Regions trade route, and the industry of Taihe Commercial Bank will be further expanded.

Of course, these are just afterwords, if you can't solve the current dilemma, everything is in vain.

After listening to Shao Xi's analysis, Sun Lichang also felt that this matter was no longer dispensable.

If this matter is handled well, maybe he will be transferred from the branch in Qingshan County to the head office in Daliang City in the future, which is also a good opportunity for him to soar.

So Sun Lichang called all the guards and porters together, promising to double the remuneration for this trip, and only asked them to fully cooperate with Shao Xi to escort Princess Aliya to Wuhai Kingdom, even if there was a loss in the goods.

The porters and guards of the caravan stumbled along the way, and at this time they all understood that this trip was probably no longer a simple escort of goods.

With so many brothers killed and wounded, they already had a hatred for those attackers, and Sun Lichang promised not only to thank them after this incident, but also to promise that they would become the core caravan members of Taihe Commercial Bank in the future.

When everyone heard this, they naturally actively prepared and responded with all their might.

A lot of times that's the case, when people's hearts are gathered together, there is a great power that pushes everyone to do whatever it takes to defend the interests of the team.

Although the caravan was in a hurry to leave the White Night Country earlier, it was not possible to get up quickly on this desert.

Through the calculation of the foot, the caravan left the White Night Country at dusk after all, which was completely in line with Shao Xi's original prediction.

Seeing that the sun was beginning to sink in the west, all the people in the caravan knew in their hearts that an invisible storm was coming, and everyone's hearts were in their throats.

Facts have also proved that all the predictions made by Shao Xi at the beginning have come true.

When the orange-red sun as big as a millstone in the western sky had just touched the horizon, Shao Xi relied on his superhuman perception to detect early that there was a large group of horses chasing after the caravan behind him.

"It's here after all."

Shao Xi muttered in a low voice.

Let Alia rush to the front of the team, Sun Lichang and Lao Wu took Alia to continue to rush towards the junction of the White Night Kingdom and the Wuhai Kingdom at the fastest speed.

He and Wu Qiu'er stayed in the team to resist the opponent's first wave of attacks.

Maybe the other party didn't know that Shao Xi had noticed their arrival in advance, so as soon as he showed up, he quickly covered up the caravan with a surprise attack.

Shao Xi reminded the caravan's guards to protect the caravan's wings, and he took the initiative to meet the other party with Wu Qiu'er.

At this time, Sun Poyun saw the people in the rear, and was about to reach out to touch the ring-headed knife hanging on the hunchback next to his feet, but was stopped by Fu Biao.

Sun Poyun looked up at Fu Biao, Fu Biao didn't speak, just shook his head lightly at him.

Only then did he react, and now he was pretending to be Aralia, and at this time, he had to make a panicked act to escape, so that the other party's hands, who had not yet appeared, would recognize him as Aralia.

So he and Fu Biao had a tacit understanding and urged the camel under his crotch to gallop forward.

Shao Xi knew very well in his heart that he and Wuqiu'er were only facing a part of the other party's people.

At this time, the main purpose of the opponent was only to put enough pressure on the guards to make the hidden men surprise the core of the caravan, in order to quickly capture Alia.

Since Shao Xi had already predicted this, he naturally did not panic in his heart.

And the other party was just as Shao Xi had expected, as soon as he came into contact with the caravan guards, people and horses broke into it, surrounding the caravan guards and Shao Xi, Wu Qiu'er and others in small circles one by one.

It is exactly what Shao Xi said before, wanting to divide and surround them and trap them firmly.

Therefore, according to Shao Xi's previous arrangement, everyone only fought with the other party without breaking through the siege, deliberately creating the illusion that the other party had been firmly besieged and could not get out.

In fact, it is an illusion, but it is more helpless, after all, the number of people who came from the other party this time is nearly 100, and if you really want to break through this siege, it will indeed take a lot of effort.

At the beginning, Shao Xi's arrangement was to let the caravan's guards contain the other party's manpower that the other party originally intended to use to contain his side, and when he and Wu Qiu'er broke out, let the caravan's guards entangle them, making them unable to reinforce.

This is the anti-encirclement strategy that Shao Xi said, but at the moment, he must act like he is trapped by the other party, otherwise the team of people hidden by the other party will not show his head easily.

The two sides fought on this desert. It was dark and dusty.

Although the caravan's guards were originally small, after the previous two battles, all of them who could stand intact to the end were also good hands.

The two sides seem to be fighting back and forth at this time, but Shao Xi and Wu Qiu'er have been working leisurely, and they can't be too fierce at this time, they must make the other party feel that they have a chance.

Because at this time, the greatest threat to the caravan was the hidden team, and only by luring out that team of people and letting Sun Poyun and Fu Biao contain them could he and Wuqiuer break through.

and cooperate with Sun Poyun and Fu Biao to cripple those elites in one fell swoop, so that they will not be able to carry out follow-up pursuits.

Speaking of which, the most pressure is not Shao Xi and Wu Qiu'er, but Sun Poyun and Fu Biao, because they are about to face the strongest part of the entire team.

The two of them not only have to protect themselves among the many strong opponents, but also have to find a way to contain each other, so that they and Wu Qiu'er can break through the siege in front of them and return to help.

When the four of them were together, Shao Xi believed that with the crushing of his "Transformation Qi Realm" and the cooperation of the other three, it was enough to completely cripple the other party's elite.

At this time, the caravan was also fighting and retreating, the guards were basically trapped in place, and Shao Xi and Wu Qiu'er were just fighting and rushing, in order to keep up with the speed of the caravan.

Perhaps thinking that the siege was now complete, one of the opposing horsemen suddenly fired an arrow into the air, only to see a group of men and horses quickly appear on the horizon on the right side of the caravan.

The group of men and horses rushed towards the caravan, and in the blink of an eye, they broke through the defenses on the right side of the caravan and broke into the caravan.

Their goal was clear, that was to come to Sun Poyun, who was dressed as Alia in the center of the caravan.

Aliya, who was walking at the front of the team, turned around and saw that such a team of people pounced on Sun Poyun, and she was also very anxious, and was about to open her mouth to remind but was caught by Lao Wu.

Lao Wu reminded in a low voice: "Don't make a sound! If you open your mouth, we'll lose everything. ”

Alia's half-opened mouth suddenly closed again, and she knew that if she opened her mouth to shout at this time, she would immediately become the most obvious target of the other party.

The most important thing to do now is to follow Sun Lichang and hurry to the territory of Wuhai Kingdom.

Sun Lichang was not ambiguous at this time, stretched out his hand to pull the reins of Alia, urging the camel under his crotch to run desperately in the direction of the border of Wuhai Kingdom, and even threw the caravan behind him behind.

The porters of the caravan also pulled the camels and desperately followed Sun Lichang and Aliya and others, just hoping to follow them to the territory of Wuhai Kingdom as soon as possible, leaving only Shao Xi and others behind them to lead the caravan guards to kill each other.

Although Sun Poyun and Fu Biao put on a posture of escaping, they deliberately slowed down.

Their goal was to attract as many other people as possible and make them abandon the pursuit of the caravan, so as to buy more time for Alia and the others to get out of danger.

Fu Biao reminded Sun Poyun in a low voice: "Don't do it first, I will protect you and fight and retreat, and you must not make a move until the last resort, it will drag on for a longer time." ”

Sun Poyun nodded gratefully to Fu Biao.

"Please! I will wait for the opportunity to move, and I will never let you be hurt Brother Fu. ”

Fu Biao looked back and grinned.

"This is all a small scene, how can I Fu Biao be afraid in the face of thousands of troops?"

In the face of such a critical scene, Fu Biao was not afraid, and he could talk and laugh freely, which made Sun Poyun can't help but admire Fu Biao.
