Chapter 12: The Caravan Led by a Woman

Yu Fanjun's war horse rushed out of the battlefield carrying Xiang Ye, originally it was running in the direction of Huling, and when it ran not far away, it suddenly rushed out from both wings Two groups of Qin cavalry, these cavalrymen threw the lasso in their hands, shouting loudly, and put the lasso on the neck of the war horse.

These Qin troops were obviously inexperienced in lassoes, and they threw the lasso many times, but they never caught the horses that were jumping around.

Pursued by the Qin army, the panicked war horse deviated from the escape route, and in the end it not only did not run in the direction of Huling, but turned to the west and fled to the west, where the Qin army was the most.

The war horse ran very fast, but the Qin army behind him showed no sign of stopping the chase, so they chased and fled, chasing and chasing for almost a whole day, and the war horse carried Xiang Ye to shake off the Qin cavalry behind the fart-stock.

There were no pursuers to chase after it, the war horse walked leisurely in the wilderness, it would bow its head and nibble a few blades of grass on the road when it walked a few steps, the gentle wind blew the ground, and a few green grasses on the road swayed back and forth with the wind.

Suddenly, the horse's ears stood up, and he stared warily to the east, but there was nothing but a loess with a few grasses growing there, and only some gray-white stones scattered around.

These "stones" are not lying quietly on the ground, but moving towards the war horse and Xiang Ye little by little, they are moving very slowly, if you don't look closely, you can't see that they are moving.

When the "stone" was still more than 100 steps away from the war horse, the war horse smelled a unique fishy smell of the beast, which was different from the ordinary beast in that there was a strong smell of blood.

After all, the war horse that fought with Yu Fanjun on the battlefield was not comparable to ordinary wild horses, it had a special sense of smell, and after smelling this bloody breath, it immediately felt that the danger was getting closer and closer to itself, and turned its head and ran towards the west with a long neigh.

When it spread its hooves and ran westward, the "stones" jumped up and ran after it.

They are not rocky creatures, they are a pack of wild wolves that grow on this plain, and this wilderness between the hills provides them with the best hiding place and the widest field of view, so that they can quickly spot the prey that appears in sight.

The tired war horse carried Xiang Ye and galloped westward, while the wild wolf behind him followed closely as if it was more determined than the Qin cavalry chasing it before, not wanting to be left behind.

The war horse was galloping, it had been running for too long, its nose was "wheezing" and panting, and its steps were getting slower and slower.

Xiang Ye on its back was still unconscious, his wound had stopped bleeding, he just lay on the war horse, unconsciously letting it run around.

The bumpy back of the horse did not throw Xiang Ye off, and when Yu Fanjun threw him on the horse, the rebel belt on the side strangled his waist with a rein, and he was bound by the reins, and after a long bump, he was still lying firmly on the horse.

The wild wolves, who are extremely observant of the state of their prey, obviously noticed the fatigue of the war horse, and after some chase, they did not give up, but accelerated their pace and chased even tighter.

On a small dirt slope, the three men watched the chase in the wilderness silently. These are three young men wearing snow-white robes and felt hats, judging from their dress, they should not be northerners, but like scholars from the land of Wuyue.

"Xin Ling, that horse seems to be carrying a person." The man standing a little further back looked at the horses that were galloping in the wilderness and said to the man in front, and when he spoke, his voice was not as thick as a man, but a little like a woman's softness.

The person known as Xin Ling just nodded and didn't speak, his eyes kept focused on the war horse carrying Xiang Ye.

"Xin Ling, can we save it?" The other person who was slightly behind watched the war horse run slower and slower, and seeing that the distance with the wild wolf was getting closer, he raised his head slightly and looked at Xin Ling and asked. This person didn't speak like the woman's voice just now, his voice was full of masculine.

Xin Ling still didn't speak, still quietly looked at the chasing war horse and the wolf, when the figure of the war horse and the wolf became farther and farther away, his eyes were still on the back of the war horse and the wild wolf that became smaller and smaller, and he didn't turn back to the two people behind him: "He doesn't need us to save him, someone in front of him will save him, Mrs. let us come out to do things, we can't waste our energy on needless rescue." ”

The two people behind him just nodded and did not object, obviously agreeing with his statement.

The wolves chased the horses all the way to the west, and gradually a team appeared in their sight, a team of hundreds of people driving the mules and horses.

A woman rode a red pony at the front of the procession, this woman looked to be about twenty-two or three years old, perhaps walking outside all the year round, her skin was slightly bronzed, her facial features were very delicate, and her small nose with a red lip the size of a cherry made her particularly sexy. A pair of eyes that were not very large and were still single eyelids shone with a bright light, and from the look in her eyes, it could be seen that she was an extremely intelligent woman.

Her tight-fitting short clothes wrapped around her body, and a large red silk tied around her waist wrapped around her waist, making her breasts and buttocks look especially full. She wore a pair of fat pants on her lower body, and her outfit did not resemble the Qin people at all, but a little like the Huns in the bitter cold land of the north.

Behind her was an old man with a gray beard, dressed in the same outfit as a woman, the neckline of his shirt was ajar, revealing half of his slightly black chest, and although the silver-white beard fluttering on his chin betrayed his age, the two pectoral muscles on his chest showed that he was still full of strength.

Behind them, a group of laborers in white robes were driving mules and donkeys carrying goods across the wilderness, and at regular intervals there were three or five guards in leather armor following them, which should have been a caravan of considerable size.

The procession moved forward rapidly, neither the woman nor the old man spoke, they just silently led the procession to the road, and the laborers in the team only drove the mules and horses forward with their heads bowed, and there was no sound in the whole team except for the sound of the hooves of the mules and horses stepping on the ground.

The team was silently moving forward, when suddenly there was a commotion and the howls of the mules and horses when they were afraid.

She hurriedly turned around, and saw some mules and horses howling around as if frightened, and the originally orderly procession suddenly boiled like a pot of porridge on the stove.

"Mr. Qiu, you stay here and sit in the town, I'll take a look!" The woman took the reins of her horse and looked back at the back of the caravan, and after throwing a word to the old man, she ran towards the back of the caravan, and when she looked around, she saw a horse galloping towards them, followed by a herd of gray-haired animals.

"Wild wolf!" The woman screamed in astonishment, and hurriedly shouted to the guards guarding the convoy: "Everyone be ready, don't let the beasts hurt the animals!" ”

After that, she took a bow from her back, took out an arrow from the quiver at her waist and put it on the bowstring, and when she opened the bowstring, the arrow pointed in the direction not a wild wolf, but a war horse carrying Xiang Ye.

"Whoosh!" An arrow flew towards the war horse with the sound of the wind, and when the arrow was still more than ten steps away from the war horse, an arrow suddenly flew from the side, and the arrow flying from the side hit the tip of the arrow shot by the woman without deviation, and the two arrows collided and flew out of the whirl before falling to the ground.

Seeing that the arrow shot out was knocked away from the side, the woman was startled, and quickly turned her face to look to the side, except for their team and the wild wolf who was chasing the war horse, there was no trace of other people or animals in the entire wilderness, and on the small hill a few hundred steps away, the lush trees swayed in the wind, but she did not believe that anyone could fire a bow and arrow from such a distance, and it was shot at the tip of her arrow without deviation.

Being able to strike first at such a distance, and under the influence of wind and other objective conditions, he can also accurately shoot the tip of the arrow, even if the god of Chu is reborn by the base, it can only be done like this. Cold sweat oozed from the woman's back, if the other party's arrow just now was not aimed at the arrow but at her, she should have been a corpse lying in the loess at this time.

The war horse and the wolves were getting closer and closer, and the woman again took out an arrow, aiming at the war horse running in front, and with her eyesight, the war horse was only twenty paces away from her team, and from such a close distance, the person hiding in the shadows could not shoot the bow and arrow she sent again, even if it was really Yoyuki Reborn.

"Click!" As soon as the woman pulled the bowstring, there was a sudden sound of arrows breaking through the wind, and then the longbow in her hand made a cracking sound, and the longbow broke in response.

She looked in astonishment in the direction where the bow had come from, and in the distance there was still a hill standing silently, with no sign of human presence.

Seeing that the war horse had rushed into the team, the wolves following it stopped far away, and a pair of green eyes stared at the team that appeared in front of them.

After the war horse rushed into the ranks, the woman reluctantly pulled out the short sword at her waist and shouted to the guards beside her: "Everyone get ready to prevent the wolves from attacking!" ”

"Madame, there's someone on horseback!" A guard stopped the war horse that rushed into the team, grabbed the reins of the horse and pointed at Xiang Ye who was lying on the horse's back and shouted to the woman.

"Leave him alone, when the wolves are gone, leave him here, if it weren't for him, we wouldn't have been targeted by the wolves." The woman didn't even look at Xiang Ye, who was still unconscious on the back of the horse, and shouted to the guard who was leading the war horse: "That horse is good, since we have caused trouble, leave this horse behind!" ”
