Qiu Liju said: "I heard that the Han Court took Gongsun Zhan as the cavalry captain, and personally went to the various departments of my Wuhuan Land to select elite assault horses. Our department once hated Gongsun Zhan, and it will become his first choice for selecting soldiers and horses. If I pick a thousand riders or less, I grit my teeth and pass. If I pick more than 1,500 rides, or 2,000 rides, I will never be able to bear it. ”

He Bai asked, "I don't know what Master Yue's plans are?" ”

Qiu Liju shook his head and sighed: "I don't dare to have any plans." Since the last battle with Gongsun Zhan, in order to deter our troops, the Han Court specially dispatched soldiers from the four counties of Yuyang, Shanggu, Guangyang, and Liaodong to be stationed in Liaoxi County, with a total of about 10,000 people. With this large army ready to be dispatched at any time, our department does not dare to call on all departments to gather together to rebel against the Han again. ”

He Bai asked again: "Then what does Lord Yue-in-law want to find me?" ”

Qiu Liju looked He Bai up and down, left and right, and said: "You Han people have always had a lot of ghost thoughts, I Wuhuan people can't think of a way, you Han people must be able to think of it, so ......"

He Bai suddenly covered his forehead and smiled bitterly, he didn't expect that in the eyes of ethnic minorities, the Han people have been synonymous with cunning since the Han Dynasty. He Bai remembered that there seemed to be such a thing about Gongsun Chan in history, and after thinking about it, he said: "You can't oppose it, and you don't dare to oppose it, so drag it out." ”

"How to drag?"

He Bai said: "It can be borrowed that the cold winter has arrived, and all departments need manpower to guard against the harm of heavy snow. Or maybe although they sent troops, they suddenly bombed the camp and fled when they left Youzhou. Anyway, every Wuhuan family has war horses, and it is not too difficult to escape from other counties to Wuhuan land. In this way, it dragged on so that Hanting could not delay it any longer. ”

Qiu Liju thought about it carefully, slapped his legs and shouted: "Miao, Miao, you Han people are really the most methodical, so I will drag him down." Anyway, as long as I don't rebel, Hanting can't do anything about me. "I left in a hurry.

He Bai shook his head and went to find Anova again.

A few days later, Anova suddenly ran in a panic and ran away, pulling He Bai away, He Bai asked puzzledly, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? ”

Anova's tone was very anxious, but He Bai just couldn't understand. Seeing that she couldn't say it clearly, Anova was in a hurry, so she could only blindly pull He Bai away. He Bai felt inexplicable, thinking that there was no big danger, so he stiffened up and didn't want to go.

After a stalemate with Anova for a while, he saw Qiu Liju leading more than a dozen people to this side. When Anova saw this, she immediately cried in a panic. He Bai didn't know what to do, so he had to hug her and comfort her.

I only heard an angry roar from the other side, "You cheap Han dog, let go of Anova quickly." ”

I saw an eight-foot tall fierce man, striding over, and hit He Bai with a punch. He Bai saw that this person was a little familiar, as if the person who blocked him that night should be Qiu Liju's nephew.

He Bai saw that this punch was quite fierce, although he didn't know what it was, he was not willing to be weak, let go of Anova, took two steps forward, and stretched out his right fist to meet it. With a bone sound of "bang", the two of them took three steps back at the same time, and the intersection of their fists just now shook He Bai's fists with a faint pain.

Anova hurriedly stepped forward to protect He Bai, and shouted loudly at Chao Dun. Badun's face turned blue and red, and finally shouted at He Bai: "Han dog, if you have a kind, let go of Anova and duel with me." ”

He Bai felt incomprehensible and asked, "Are you Badun, that is Anova's cousin." I'm Anova's husband, and I'm related to you, so we have no grudges, so why should I duel with you. ”

His eyes were red, and he shouted again and hit him when he stepped up, and He Bai hurriedly raised his fist to fight. Qiu Liju finally spoke at this time, and shouted: "Badun, can't you make it clear before you fight?" ”

Seeing that he couldn't take He Bai in a short time, he had to give up the attack, and turned to Qiu Liju and shouted in Wuhuan language.

Qiu Liju was stunned at first, then regretful, and finally shook his head again and again and said, "Do you like Anova?" Why didn't you tell me earlier? Although you are cousins, but you are my nephew, and you have done a great job for me, how can I not agree to you. At this time, Anova has been promised to He Bai by me, but I can't go back. ”

He was so angry that he pulled his hair and drank wildly, and even beat his fists on his chest, and finally sat on the ground and cried.

He Bai roughly understood why Badun was looking for himself, and he couldn't persuade him to export, after all, he was a cheap person. It can be seen that Qiu Liju glanced at him with a cold face, and He Bai suddenly snorted. I feel that there must be something strange about Qiu Liju in it.

Suddenly, he jumped up again and shouted: "Uncle, you said that this Han dog is brave and invincible, and he can be regarded as a general, and he will definitely help my department to grow its strength." But when I confronted him today, I found that his strength was not as good as Er'er, and it was not a big deal. Uncle, I'm going to duel him. ”

Qiu Liju said unhappily: "You have said the duel all the way, how do you want to use the duel method?" ”

Badun shouted: "Naturally, I will die with this Han dog." ”

Qiu Liju said angrily: "One of you is my nephew, the other is my son-in-law, both are my right-hand men, how can I let you fight to the death?" ”

"Uncle, I am your nephew, and I want to be your son-in-law, and I am willing to bear the happiness of Anova's life." Ask for your consent, right? ”

Qiu Liju shook his head again and again, but he didn't, and finally reluctantly agreed when he was about to go crazy again. said: "Okay, I can agree to a duel between you, but you are all my arms, and I don't agree with you fighting to the death." And Anova is already He Bai's wife, and now you want to compete with He Bai for Anova, what do you need to come up with as a bet? ”

He bowed with great joy: "Everything is up to my uncle, and I will take whatever my uncle tells me to take." ”

Qiu Liju thought for a while, and then said: "When He Bai first came, I gave him three hundred slaves as a dowry for Anova. Since you want to snatch Anova from him, take out five hundred slaves as a bet. If you win, Anova will marry you. If you lose, what if your cousin gives Anova the dowry? ”

He didn't think about it, and raised his eyes and stared at He Bai viciously. After listening to it for a long time, He Bai finally understood what Qiu Liju was thinking at this time. I think it's because the forces of the Gang Dun are too strong in the ministry, and there is a feeling that they can't control it, so they deliberately borrowed their hands to eliminate power.

It's just that Qiu Liju didn't ask He Bai and Anova about this matter, so he responded to the matter with all his might, but He Bai was very unhappy.

Just when Qiu Liju thought he had a plan, he said respectfully: "Uncle, since it is not a fight of life and death, I am afraid that if I play in person, I will not be able to suppress my anger and turn into a fight of life and death." Just in case, my nephew should send his subordinates to fight. If He Bai is afraid that I will secretly do evil, he can also let his slaves fight. ”

Qiu Liju was stunned, but he couldn't object, and looked at He Bai. He Bai only transformed into the protagonist of the field at this time, and said, "Don't worry, I will fight in person." ”

After deliberating for a while, the group decided whether to have a duel in three days' time, or in front of the entire Chuliju tribe. At the cost of 500 slaves in his headquarters, he wanted to compete with He Bai for the right to belong to Anova.

Under Anova's worries, He Bai carried her back to his tent. Because there was a duel in three days, He Bai did not mess with Anova again. Just recharge your batteries in the tent and ask Anova some questions. When He Bai asked, and Anova nodded and shook her head, He Bai finally understood some of the situation in Qiu Liju.

Qiu Liju had two brothers, and the eldest brother was divided by his father to 2,000 slaves after he became an adult. However, the eldest brother died of illness two years later, leaving a young man. Because of his young age, he returned to the Chuliju department, and his father took care of the department.

After he came of age, he returned his ministry to him. But when he remembered Qiu Liju's nurturing grace, he did not separate again, but lived with Qiu Liju. In addition, Chuliju has never had a son, only a daughter of Anova. At first, it seemed that Qiu Liju also intended to lure Bunton as his son-in-law, and entrusted all his subordinates to him, including his daughter.

However, two years ago, Qiu Liju turned out to be old and gave birth to a white and chubby boy named Lou Ban. Qiu Liju immediately regarded the prestige of the Ministry as the great enemy of his own flesh and blood.

However, Qiu Liju has ambitions, and he has the ambition to become Wuhuan Shan Yu. The brave and combative Badun and his 2,000 fallen troops could not be pushed out no matter what. After thinking about it, He Bai's appearance suddenly gave Qiu Liju a way to suppress and fight against Badun with the help of He Bai's hands.

He Bai sighed deeply, he was a pawn in the hands of others after all.

Three days passed quickly, outside the main tent of Qiu Liju, hundreds of people gathered early, this is Qiu Liju's generals, small marshals and free men, is the ruling class in the ministry, and everyone else is Qiu Liju and their slaves.

As far as He Bai's subordinates are concerned, more than 300 and 2,000 people are slaves, and there are only two masters, He Bai and Anova. When the two of them blossom and bear fruit in the future, or promote meritorious heroes, the ruling class will slowly increase.

Hundreds of people gathered together, which can be regarded as a large group of black presses. He Bai walked towards them slowly, today was the first time He Bai appeared in front of everyone in Qiu Liju's department, and he still felt quite nervous.

Anova followed He Bai's side, holding He Bai's arm with both hands, very nervous. He Bai looked at the little beauty who was getting deeper and deeper with him, smiled and hugged her into his arms, kissed her fiercely, and when she was intoxicated, he let her go and strode towards the crowd.
