Xiao Ming and Gu Xiaoliu were resting, after all, they had just killed a big black bear, and their physical strength still needed to rest, and at this time, there was another sound in the woods next to them, "Could it be that there are wild beasts again?" ”

Xiao Ming and Gu Xiaoliu were on full alert, and at this time, several people came out of the woods, all dressed as hunters with animal skin hats and animal skin skirts, holding bows and arrows and hunting forks in their hands, and after they came out, several people looked Xiao Ming and the others up and down. When you see the bear skin and bear meat on the ground, not only does it change color.

A middle-aged strong man among the hunters walked out and said to Xiao Ming and the others: "Ah Hu'er, knock your ears?" ”

Xiao Ming was puzzled, and he couldn't understand what the other party said.

The strong man saw the confused look on Xiao Ming's face, and opened his mouth again: "You are Han?" Not a Khitan? ”

Xiao Ming nodded and said, "That's right, who are you?" ”

The man said: "We are all hunters here, but we are all Han people from the north, and this is already the hinterland of the Liao Kingdom, how did you come here?" ”

Xiao Ming told the other party: "I and my subordinates encountered robbers, so we were forced to flee for our lives, and we couldn't find the way in the barren mountains and mountains, and I don't know how long I walked, and I don't know where I am now?" ”

The man told Xiao Ming that this was already the territory of the Wuhuai Division, the largest tribe in the Khitan, and close to the Wuhuai Mountains, it was already a primeval forest in the Xing'an Hills! His words surprised Xiao Ming, "Isn't the Xing'an Hill the Xing'an Ridge?" How did you run so far? ”

The person like Xiao Ming reported his name, saying that his surname was Xu, his name was Xu Lizhuo, and he was a Han from the north who had been exiled to the Wuhuai Department, because he had hunted for generations and had good skills, and he was regarded as a "hunter" in the tribe and Xiao Ming was fortunate to have met him, otherwise no one here would know Chinese, and he would definitely have misunderstood when the time came.

A young man in the back muttered a few words to Xu Lizhuo, and Xu Lizhuo said to Xiao Ming: "They asked you, did you kill this big bear?" Xiao Ming nodded, Xu Lizhuo turned around and said a few words to a few hunters, who let out exclamations, and looked at Xiao Ming's eyes full of awe.

Xu Lizhuo arched his hand and said, "I don't know how you killed this big bear?" We've been tracking it for a long time, and it's the culprit that plagues the tribe's horses! ”

Xiao Ming smiled: "Little meaning, you see ......" After speaking, he stretched out his hand to grab a stone next to him, and under the sound of a thud, the stone immediately shattered into several pieces. Xu Lizhuo was shocked and said, "Sir, good means!" The hunters behind him were also amazed, and the look of awe in their eyes was even greater.

Xiao Ming said: "I also accidentally killed it, since this bear is very important to you, why don't I give you bear skin and bear meat!" ”

The hunter was very happy, and muttered together, mingling with cheers, and took off his hats and threw them into the sky, only to see that they were all blue and void scalps, and only had buns on the sides of their heads, and some of them were braided and hung down, and indeed they were braided hair! Remembering that when he first came to this world, he was slandered as a Liao person with braided hair, and now that he finally saw the real Liao people, Xiao Ming felt a little incredible.

The hunters bowed to Xiao Ming, lifted the bear head and bear skin, and put away the bear meat, and treated Xiao Ming with special respect, this is their tradition, that is, to respect the strong!

Xu Lizhuo invited Xiao Ming to their tribe, Xiao Ming thought about it, his own supplies were all gone, and he hadn't taken a bath for a long time, just to take a break, he asked Xu Lizhuo how far the tribe was from Shangjing in Liao, since he came here, he simply went to Shangjing directly, maybe the Sui Gong had been transported to Liao, or it was okay to find Xiao Zhonggong.

Xu Lizhuo said: "From here to Shangjing, you need to go to the northwest, and if you ride a horse, you will have to walk for at least ten days, and take it to see if you can ask the leader to arrange to send someone to send you over." ”

Xiao Ming said in his heart: "That's fine" so he nodded and agreed!

Everyone happily carried the bear skin and bear head, and walked towards the tribe of the Wuhuai Department, while walking, Xiao Ming asked Xu Lizhuo about the surrounding customs, especially how far is it from Changbai Mountain, is there any ginseng, if you get some ginseng, this can also make a fortune.

Xu Lizhuo obviously didn't know much about geographical matters, but during the chat, Xiao Ming learned that the Wuhuai Department could be regarded as the largest tribe among the eight tribes of the Liao State, and they were only one of the small tribes, as long as they lived on fishing and hunting, the big tribes of the Wuhuai Department have now relied on the Han people in the north to settle down and take agriculture for a living, and some of them raise horses at the foot of the mountain, which is basically the main supplier of war horses in the Liao State.

The old leader of the Wuhuai Department is called Xiao Biyang, but he has no competitive heart, because the previous Liao Emperor married the princess of the tribe, so the entire tribe was given the surname Xiao, and the Wuhuai Department is also a relatively powerful tribe in the Great Liao State, which is the guarantee of the prosperity of the Liao State.

However, in the past two years, a big Jin country has risen in the five countries in the north, constantly invading southward, and the Liao country has fought several battles with them, and I heard that the power of the Jin country has almost developed to Wuhuai Mountain!

Walk along the way, unconsciously, Xiao Ming, under the leadership of others, has walked out of the dense forest, out of the primeval forest, Xiao Ming only then felt suddenly enlightened, always feel depressed in the woods, outside this dense forest is a grassland, the grassland is undulating and has been spread to the mountains in the distance.

It's almost autumn now, the shrubs are lush on the meadow, flowers of different colors are blooming everywhere, the breeze blows, the rolling grass waves are lined up, and the grazing sheep and horses are turned out in the distance, the scenery is very beautiful!

After turning a hillside, suddenly the sound of horses' hooves in front of him was loud, the dust was flying, and the sound of shouting kept coming, and the hunters didn't know why, so they quickly fell to the ground, hiding behind the hillside and looking forward, Xiao Ming and Gu Xiaoliu also followed everyone to lie in the grass, stretching their necks to look forward.

I saw that there were two teams of centaurs fighting in front of them, one team of centaurs was mostly dressed in red, and there were many of them, and the other team of centaurs was obviously very few, but they were very brave, often fighting with one enemy and three enemies and two without falling behind, everyone was riding on horses, fighting in a tactful circle, the horses' hooves were trampling, and from time to time the dead fell off the horse.

There are a large number of men and horses in red clothes, and most of the weapons in their hands are maces and maces, and the costumes of the people and horses on this side are also very uniform, all of them are gray-clothed armor soldiers, using spears and scimitars in their hands, and the people in red see that each other is brave, so they specially summon a group of archers, "Whoosh!" Arrows rained down on the Grey Armor.

The gray-clothed soldiers were hit by arrows and fell off their horses, some held round shields to resist, seeing heavy casualties, among the gray-clothed people, someone whistled, everyone killed a bloody road, pulled out the horse and ran, the red-clothed man cheered in his mouth, and then chased, the long knife and the mace, all of them looked fierce, and their faces were happy, as if they were about to wipe out the other party.

The man in gray fought and retreated, and suddenly killed a female general from it, opened a bow and arrows, shot the man in red off the horse with an arrow, and covered the evacuation of his own team, the man in red knew that she was very good at archery, and did not dare to get too close, but it seemed that the identity of this female general was very special, and among the men in gray, more people stayed to fight with her.

The female general was in a hurry, turned around and scolded her subordinates loudly, but everyone just didn't retreat, and in desperation, the female general retreated first, and everyone followed and retreated, seeing that the two teams of people were getting closer and closer to the hillside where Xiao Mingtan was hiding, Xu Lizhuo said: "It's broken!" The man in red is a Jurchen! That guy seems to be a sticky! This guy killed the Khitans of many of our tribes! ”

Xiao Ming first looked at which Jurchen sticky and found that the other party was actually a bald man, with an unusually burly figure, a mustache on his upper lip, a red battle coat draped obliquely, a big knife, and an iron shield in his left hand, he seemed to be the leader of this team, and when he saw that the other party was about to retreat, his face showed anger.

He commanded his subordinates loudly, the team of the red-clothed Jurchen suddenly split into two, the men and horses in front continued to pursue, and the other people and horses quickly outflanked backwards, Xiao Ming looked at the hillside and admired, "This kid can also use the art of war!" It's not easy" It is said that the Jurchens of the Jin Kingdom are very barbaric, and it seems that there are still some smart people among this group of barbarians.

The tactics of the sticky were soon rewarded, and the gray-clad team was surrounded again, and this time the Jurchens all raised their shields, and the Khitans' bows and arrows could not shoot them. The encirclement became smaller and smaller, and the Jurchens shouted and screamed, which was exactly the posture they wanted in close combat, and the two gangs suddenly collided together.

Xiao Ming saw that they had no rules at all to fight, the cavalry was just a brute fight, except for the outflanking tactics used by Sticky just now, he had not seen the other party's design in the cavalry formation and offensive and defensive levels, blindly fighting and fighting, but it seemed that the Jurchen soldiers were more adept at fighting on horseback, and the bows and arrows far away shot a few arrows in a row, and when they were close, they drew their weapons to slash and kill, and this process controlled the horses without hands at all, but only on their legs.

When the spear of the Khitan people approached the other party, it was thrown out as a throwing gun, and then it could only pull out the scimitar against the enemy, after the two sides collided together, the mace of the Jurchens immediately showed absolute lethality, often even the people were smashed off the horse together, the armor-breaking effect of the mace was excellent, with the momentum of the horse, the Khitan people's talisman iron armor could not bear it at all, and people constantly fell off the horse.

The battle was about to be decided soon, and finally the Jurchens were almost killing the Khitans, and the two Khitan warrior protectors, the female general, broke through and ran towards the hillside where Xiao Ming and they were hiding.

At the same time, there were several Jurchen warriors who followed him, those people laughed and followed far away, two Khitan warriors, in order to let the female general run first, reflexively came to fight Sticky, and was cut off by Sticky Grish with two knives, and the horse chased after the female general, at this time, suddenly "Whoosh!" Several bows and arrows shot at the sticky, and several hunters beside Xiao Ming suddenly jumped up with excitement and rushed towards the Jurchen warriors.

Several sharp arrows flew in the distance and nailed them to the ground, Gu Xiaoliu trembled and pulled Xiao Ming's back coat and said, "What should I do?" Are we going to be killed? Xiao Ming didn't say a word, just took out the black god crossbow, stared closely at the movement in front of him, and there was a drum in his heart, in such a battlefield, there was a great chance of being killed inexplicably!

The general's mount was knocked down by an arrow from behind, she rolled down, stumbled towards the hillside, and the sticky behind her said something loudly, slowly approaching, and her face kept showing a smirk, at this moment, suddenly a black light flashed, and the sticky screamed and turned over and planted the horse.

The female general was shocked, and suddenly saw Sticky fall off the horse, and before she could react, a thin-faced man suddenly stood up behind her, carrying a black weapon in his hand, obviously the thing shot Sticky down, Xiao Ming didn't care about her, he picked up Xu Lizhuo who was still trembling from the side.

"Do you understand the Jurchen words? What did he just say? Xiao Ming asked.

"I understand, I understand, he said Ami'er, don't run away, obediently go back with him to be his woman......"

At this time, the remaining hunters came over to help the female general up, and then knelt on the ground to salute her, it seems that the identity of this Khitan woman is not low, the woman named Ami'er has recovered her expression, and is looking at Xiao Ming curiously, muttering something in her mouth.

Xiao Ming said: "I don't have time to pay attention to you now" He pointed to the Jurchen warriors below the hillside and said: "There is still a danger that has not been solved!" After saying that, he picked up the big knife and cut off the head of the sticky with one sword......
