The women were disappointed, although they knew that the Gobi outside the Saiwai was desolate, but they didn't expect it to be so noisy and boring, and they didn't even have the mood to appreciate it, and as far as the eye could see, there were only blue skies, white clouds, and an endless desolate area. They wandered around the carriage for a day, except for Shi Jianing, all of them were miserable.

After they had traveled about forty or fifty miles, the sky began to darken.

King Wu hurriedly ordered to set up camp.

The sky is blowing a north wind, and on the edge of this empty desert, the wind is sweeping unobstructed, accompanied by the darkening sky, there is a feeling that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings.

The women trembled suddenly, obviously having never experienced such a battle.

The wind swept in, and the people who blew it instantly turned on their backs.

Hong Shan's carriage was obviously frightened, and suddenly it was uncontrollable and ran straight up.

Xie Tong hurriedly drove his horse to the carriage, but their horse was also frightened, no matter how much he whipped the horse, the horse under his crotch remained motionless, neighing and staying in place.

Xie Tong hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and ran after him.

The horses galloped faster and faster, leaving the army and heading towards the western part of the steppe.

The nightingale did not take the carriage, she saw that Hong Shan's carriage had changed, she was busy pinching the horse's belly, and the horse under her crotch was like a psychic, and chased directly towards the carriage, the red horse was like lightning, and caught up with the carriage in the blink of an eye, she jumped into the air, and jumped directly onto the carriage.

The nightingale skillfully pulled up the reins of the horse and dragged it to death, but the horse did not care about the pain, and still galloped desperately, but the speed was obviously much lower.

The nightingale's body swayed in the wind, as if it would be swept away by the wind at any moment, and all the soldiers looked at the frightened horses in horror, secretly sweating for the nightingale.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Xie Tong hurriedly used all the strength of his body, used the whirlwind walking technique, and rushed to the back of the carriage like a fly, pulling the back edge of the carriage hard, but did not see any improvement.

The carriage dragged him up.

The nightingale shouted, "Xie Tong, it's useless to pull the cart, you come to the front and knock the horses unconscious!"

Hearing this, Xie Tong grabbed the back edge of the car with both hands, stepped on it with both feet, and jumped onto the roof of the car with the strength of galloping, and he crossed again and landed beside the nightingale.

The nightingale grabbed the reins of her horse, her face flushed, and she was clearly exhausted.

The nightingale whispered, "Quick, knock the horses out!"

Xie Tong mentioned his true qi, and suddenly hit a shadowless finger, hitting the horse's head hard, and the horse didn't even snort, and fell directly to the ground.

The carriage jerked forward, and by inertia, both of them flew out and fell to the ground.

The soldiers all shouted and applauded the nightingale's amazing horse skills, such a resourceful female general, it is really rare,

Xie Tong hurriedly got up, and seeing that the nightingale was fine, he gave the nightingale a grateful look, and then opened the car door.

Hong Shan and Cai Wei also tossed enough in the carriage, and this sudden change scared the two of them enough, but fortunately, there was no danger.

Several people returned to the team with difficulty, and the camp tent had just been set up.

Everyone immediately entered the camp, although Hong Shan knew a few kung fu, but still at a loss, she had lived in the Central Plains for a long time, and had never encountered such a terrible situation.

Wang Wanru brought hot tea to everyone, Hong Shan took the tea, and I had it in my hand.

Xie Tong walked straight to the nightingale and whispered, "Thank you."

Nightingale waved her hand and didn't say anything, but in everyone's hearts, she was the hero of the day.

Although no one praises her, she is already an irreplaceable heroine.

Lao Lai looked outside the tent and said, "This gale came so suddenly, this is how it is outside the Saiwai, the wind and rain, the big phoenix comes and goes quickly, ha, there will be a good weather tomorrow."

Before the words fell, the wind was already much lighter.

Huo Zixin had to give a thumbs up.

Before a few people could recover from their panic, the guards outside the tent suddenly asked to see them, and said, "Lord Qi, a pair of caravans passed by outside the camp and asked for help from our army!"

Li Zheng had never encountered such bad weather, so he couldn't bear to say, "Let them come in!

Not long after, a person who looked like a merchant traveler entered the big tent, hugged his fists and said, "Thank you for the help of the generals, I am grateful!"

King Wu smiled and said, "It's okay, they are all descendants of Yan and Huang, this little thing is not enough to worry about."

The caravan looked at everyone, and suddenly knelt down and said, "Please also ask you to save your lives, when the wind was blowing, another caravan accompanying was attacked by Xue Yantuo's horse thieves, and fled in a hurry, I waited for the wind to escape, please see the generals in the face of the same Han people, and come to the rescue." ”

Li Zheng said: "Is the horse thief so rampant?"

Lao Lai's face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly said, "Lord Wang, Xue Yantuo's horse thieves are very vicious, they rob the business travelers who come and go, not only loot the goods, but also don't even let people go, women are **** on the spot, men are killed directly, if they meet a baby, they will directly dig out their hearts and lungs and eat them alive?"

Everyone was disgusted when they heard this.

"What?" Li Zheng immediately slapped the table and said, "It's so inhumane, is this still human?"

When the merchant heard that this person was the prince, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed, "The villain, please ask the prince to lend a hand and save my descendants of Yan and Huang."

The wind gradually became lighter.

Li Zheng slapped the table and said angrily, "Who is willing to stand out for this king and kill the horse thief!"

Xie Tong and the three of them stood up at the same time and said, "Lord Wang, I'm willing to go."

Li Zheng looked at the three of them and said, "Let General Xie and General Huo go! Don't fight the majesty of my Tang Dynasty."

"Order", the two rushed out of the camp at the same time, and the warning voice of Lao Lai "Be careful" came from their ears.

Under the leadership of this merchant traveler, Xie Tong and the two each led a thousand light horsemen and set off towards their destination.

The wind went very fast, and by the time Xie Tong and the others ran out for more than ten miles, they had completely stopped.

The business traveler took the lead, pointing not far away, "Just ahead!"

The troops swarmed over, and there were sheepskins and bottles and cans scattered all over the place, apparently due to the strong winds, and the supplies were lost.

As he walked forward, two corpses appeared on the ground, apparently the corpses of Han merchants, their heads all cut off, and the blood stained the ground around the corpses.

The merchant exclaimed, "General Xie, this is here, and the horse thief is here to hunt us down!"

But now, all of them are gone.

Xie Tong looked down at the chaotic hoof prints, and said, "There are still rescues, it seems that they are retreating towards the east, let's chase after them!"

The crowd turned on their horses and chased them all the way east.

The corpses on the ground gradually increased, most of them were the corpses of the Han people, there were very few horse thieves, everyone ran five miles further, in front of them was an abandoned earthen fort, the earth fort was full of high-headed horses, and there was a group of fierce horse thieves sitting immediately, they were dressed nondescriptly, their hair was tied with a sheep's belt, and they were wearing leather jackets, but the workmanship was very rough, and their saddles were hung with human heads, and blood was constantly dripping from human heads.

Xie Tong looked disgusted, this group of horse thieves was divided into two parts, the number of people was in the thousands, one part was in the earthen fort, and the other was outside.

This group of horse thieves also discovered Xie Tong and the others, and they blew their horns to signal that an enemy was coming.

After a while, a group of horse thieves walked out of the earthen fort, they turned over their horses, and faced Xie Tong's twice their strength, they did not show the slightest timidity, and there was a faint sense of greed and disdain in their eyes.

Xie Tong said in a loud voice, "Prepare for battle."

As soon as the words fell, the horn of Xue Yantuo's horse thieves sounded again, and after they assembled, they rushed over in the sound of the horn.

Facing this brave and fierce horse thief, not only Xie Tong, but even Huo Zixin met it for the first time. But he knew that Xue Yantuo's horse thieves had always been like this, and in their eyes, the enemies were all weak, especially the Han people of the Southern Dynasty, who were even weaker and could be bullied, and most of them chose to flee rather than resist.

Xie Tong shouted in a low voice, "Prepare to shoot arrows!"

With that, he threw the moon-chasing bow, pulled the bow into the shape of a full moon with a slight force, and suddenly let go, only to hear a whoosh, and the bamboo arrows flew towards the horse thieves with a rapid sound of breaking wind. The distance of archery is more than 300 horse thieves, and there are very few who can shoot at such a distant target.

When the horse thief saw Xie Tong shoot arrows, the corners of his mouth showed a taste of disdain, in his impression, the Han people of the Southern Dynasties were weak, and they couldn't shoot threatening arrows at all, especially at such a distance, it was difficult for a warrior of the grassland to do it.

Of course, when he found that this arrow was beyond his judgment, his heart was not good, he hurriedly drew his long knife and slashed at Xie Tong's bamboo arrow.

Unexpectedly, the bamboo arrow stabbed through his throat at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye, and came out of the back of his neck, bringing out a canopy of blood.

The horse thief who was hit by the arrow fell directly from his horse and died with a whimper.

There was a shout from Tang Jun's side.

\ When the enemy approached, the Tang soldiers did not spare their hands, but shot arrows one after another, hoping to shoot the horse thieves off their horses one after another.

However, due to the fact that the wind did not cease, the accuracy of the arrows was affected in the eyes, and many bows and arrows were also confused and deviated after being shot, or the strength was insufficient, so that the horse thieves suffered almost no losses, and in the blink of an eye, they attacked the Tang army line.

Huo Zixin clenched the Mufeng sword and shouted, "Brothers, kill!

His shout instantly aroused the pride of all the soldiers who hated the enemy, and everyone followed him and rushed towards the fierce enemy.

Xie Tong shot three arrows in a row, and the arrows hit the enemy, so that the leader of the horse thieves quickly discovered Xie Tong, this person has excellent archery skills, and he is a first-class archer. The leader hurriedly called a few of his subordinates and pointed at Xie Tong.

Immediately, a group of men and horses rushed straight towards Xie Tong, obviously he was a great threat to the safety of the enemy army.

Xie Tong waved his hand, and the soldiers under him also pounced, and the two sides fought directly in one place.

This group of horse thieves is really fierce, they grew up on horseback, riding a horse to fight is no longer a problem, on the other hand, the Tang army, although the cavalry combat effectiveness is good, but compared with the other party, whether it is horse skills or fighting, are not the opponent of horse thieves, not long after, there have been many Tang troops have been cut off the horse. At the same time, they often cut off their heads with a single sword, stabbed them with long knives, and lifted them up and hung them in the saddle, which was equivalent to their trophies.

Xie Tong was finally angry, what a dehumanizing act this was, he suddenly pulled out the Qingyu sword, clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and rushed directly into the enemy.

Xie Tong held the Qingyu Sword, slashed left and right, and directly entered the group of horse thieves.

Everywhere the Qingyu Sword went, it was invincible, the enemy's weapons were cut off by the Qingyu Sword one after another, and some horse thieves even had their arms cut off by Xie Tong.

But these horse thieves are also really good, although Xie Tong is brave, none of the horse thieves retreated, and they all rushed towards Xie Tong desperately, trying to fight bravely and ruthlessly.

Xie Tong cut off the horse thief's steel knife with a sword, swung his sword and stabbed at the horse thief, only to see the long sword penetrating through his chest, Xie Tong was just about to draw his sword, and the horse thief in the sword stared at Xie Tong, he held the Qingyu sword with both hands, and did not let Xie Tong withdraw the sword.

Seeing this, the other horse thieves slashed towards Xie Tong in the stabbing hole.

Xie Tong jerked hard, the sword was only pulled back an inch, the sharp blade had already cut his hands, and blood kept pouring out of the horse thief, but he didn't mean to give up at all, but showed a momentum of seeing death as home, and wanted to die with Xie Tong.

Xie Tong exerted his strength again, and the sword was still pulled back an inch. The horse thief himself was extremely powerful, and he was determined to fight hard, so Xie Tong had to give up retrieving the sword for the time being.

Seeing the horse thieves on the left and right coming over, Xie Tong decisively let go, he lifted his true qi, luck whirlwind footwork, and his body was just in the air.

Two swords swept under his body, almost slashing him, which can be described as extremely thrilling.

At the same time, the thief fell backwards, flipped off his horse, and fell to the ground with a whimper.

The horse thieves on the left and right slashed into the air, seeing that Xie Tong was in the air, the horse chopping knife slashed directly upward, and the two knives took Xie Tong's back waist and feet respectively, this knife was sharpened, and Xie Tong was killed on the spot.

Xie Tong had already sensed that the other party would have this move, his figure turned sharply in the air, falling down from top to bottom, he opened his bow left and right, and stepped on the sword body of the horse chopping knife with both feet at the same time, this move was exquisite, and he immediately cut off the enemy's attack.

Xie Tong exerted a little force, stepped on the saber with both feet, and stood steadily in the air, in a herringbone shape.

Seeing that Xie Tong was so powerful, the two horse thieves were unconvinced, and at the same time withdrew their horse swords to see how Xie Tong parried.

Xie Tong had a foresight, and in a hurry, he used the technique of a thousand catties to fall, poured his strength into his feet, and stepped on the horse chopping knife fiercely.

The two horse thieves couldn't stand the pressure, but they held the knife and refused to let go, still struggling to support.

Xie Tong was very surprised, what kind of nation is this, the killing methods are cruel, bloodthirsty by nature, but they never retreat in the face of the enemy, they don't know what fear is, they only know the consistent order, even if they die, they will not flinch.

The leader of the horse thieves is a big man with a beard on his face, he saw that Xie Tong was brave, and his subordinates could solve it, and now Xie Tong was in the air, with nowhere to hide, he was busy finding an arrow in the quiver, shooting arrows with a bow, and the bamboo arrows brought a burst of sound of breaking the air, and went straight to Xie Tong.

The leader's level of archery was really high, and he was not affected in the slightest by the wind. The bamboo arrow arrived in front of Xie Tong in the blink of an eye...... (To be continued.) )
