Chapter 137 Duel
Asida clenched the scimitar in her hand, and her exposed arm muscles bulged.

"With the long sword in my hand, and with my Asida's prestige among the Qiang and Hu clan."

With that said, Asida walked to the field domineeringly, looked at the leaders, and said with a fierce expression,

"If any leader is dissatisfied, we can have a duel according to the traditions of the Qiang and Hu people."

"However, all the leaders know that I, Asida, always leave no room for action and go all out to show the greatest respect to my opponent."

Asida glanced at everyone, "Who dares to fight with me?"

The leaders curled their lips, but in the end no one dared to look directly at Asida.

Asida smiled arrogantly, turned to Bei Gong Ling and said: "Big leader, you have seen it, among the entire Qiang and Hu clan, I, Asida, am the only one qualified to be your man."

"Whether you are qualified or not is not up to you." A cold word interrupted Asida.

Bei Gongling stepped forward with a face as heavy as water.

Originally, she had no fondness for the savage-looking Asida, but now that Asida took advantage of the Qiang and Hu enemies to propose marrying her, she felt even more threatened.

As the leader of the Qiang and Hu, Beigong Ling has her own arrogance.

In fact, as a woman, and a very beautiful woman at that, who had to rule hundreds of thousands of Qiang and Hu subordinates who were warlike by nature, Bei Gongling was much stronger on the inside than she looked on the outside.

"According to my father's legacy, if you want to marry me, you must at least surpass me in terms of force."

Beigong Ling raised his gold-encrusted sword and pointed it directly at Asida, "Let me see who gave you the courage."

The people around them consciously retreated in a circle, forming a competition field in the middle.

Asida took off his upper body shirt, revealing his strong tendons. He squatted down slightly and stared at Bei Gong Ling in front of him like a wolf on the grassland.

Bei Gong Ling stood quietly and slowly stretched her body, like a cheetah ready to go.

Asida moved, roared, and pointed the scimitar directly at Bei Gong Ling.

Asida definitely surpassed Bei Gongling in terms of muscle strength. This sword was powerful and heavy, and the scimitar slashed out with a hunting sound, without any sign of holding back.

Bei Gong Ling had gone through many battles to secure his position as the leader. How could he be frightened by Asida's offensive? He just took a side step and twisted his body to avoid Asida's vertical slash.

Immediately afterwards, he blocked Asida with his sword and stopped Asida's backswing. He shook his arm and used the force to push Asida away.

Asida's attack was just a test attack. Seeing that Bei Gong Ling easily cracked it, he calmed down and knew that Bei Gong Ling was not easy to deal with.

The next moment, Asida held the sword in both hands, rushed in front of Bei Gong Ling again with one arrow step, and struck the top of Bei Gong Ling's head with the force of a king slashing gold.

This time, although Asida's sword technique was still powerful and heavy, he did not use it with all his strength. The scimitar slashed down, and after being held by Bei Gong Ling, he immediately used the rebound to slash down again.

The violent attacks were so continuous that Bei Gong Ling had no time to dodge, and could only parry with the same sword in both hands.

In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen knives had been struck, and the leaders watching the battle around him were stunned.

It has to be said that although Asida does not look very good, her physical talent is definitely the best among the Qiang and Hu people.

Such a high-speed and powerful attack immediately caused Bei Gongling's pretty face to blush, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

But Bei Gongling was not weak, and he still withstood more than a dozen consecutive attacks.

Taking advantage of the interval between Asida's breathing, Bei Gongling stepped back and exited Asida's attack range.

"That's all," Beigong Ling raised the gold-encrusted sword in his hand, "Now let's see if you can catch my attack."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bei Gongling dwarfed and took out a half-foot-long dagger from his waist with his left hand.
The gold-encrusted sword in his right hand is held backward, with the back of the sword leaning against his forearm.
The well-proportioned calf muscles were weak, and the body was like a cheetah hunting prey, and he jumped in front of Asida in an instant.

Asida subconsciously raised the knife to kill, but saw that Bei Gongling did not draw the knife at all, but passed around his body.

With a "whoosh" sound, Bei Gong Ling's figure appeared behind Asida.

Only then did Asida feel a chill in her waist. She raised her hand and touched it, and her hand was bright red.

Bei Gongling actually cut a gash in his waist with a dagger in one round.

Fortunately, Asida has a strong body and tight muscle fibers. Bei Gongling did not use any strength to use the dagger, and the hole in his waist was not deep.

"Asida, you are no match for me. Now kneel down and admit defeat. You are still an outstanding warrior among my Qiang and Hu clan."

Bei Gong Ling's cold voice came from behind.

After hitting the target, she did not pursue the victory. As the leader of the Qiang Hu, Bei Gong Ling still did not want the Qiang Hu to lose such a talent even if Asida had evil intentions towards her.

However, Bei Gongling's words greatly stimulated Asida.

Asida has been fighting since he was a teenager. He has never been defeated in the grassland for many years, and has directly raised a low-ranking tribe to its current height, able to compete with the leader of the Qiang King tribe.

With Asida's arrogant character, how could she be willing to always be subordinate to a woman?

"Beigong Ling, it seems that I underestimated you and thought I could easily defeat you and make you my woman."

"Since you refuse to fight to the death, don't blame me for being ruthless. If you die in battle, the position of leader will still belong to me, Asida."

Murderous intent rose in Asida's eyes, the muscles on his arms bulged, and the veins on his neck popped out. He roared and swung his knife to kill Bei Gong Ling fiercely.
This time, Asida really didn't hold anything back, and all his moves were killing moves.

The cavalry scimitar drew dazzling cold light in his hand, and the cold light enveloped Bei Gongling's vital parts.

The onlookers looked solemn and did not dare to speak. It was obvious that they knew that this battle had become a battle of life and death.

If Asida wins, the leader of the Qiang and Hu will have to be replaced.
And if Asida dies, Bei Gongling's reputation among the Qiang and Hu clan will reach its peak.

Among the nomadic peoples where all the people are soldiers, advocating force is an unchanging truth from generation to generation.

Bei Gong Ling's eyes narrowed slightly, and her face became cautious. Facing Asida's knife shadow, she advanced instead of retreating.

The gold-inlaid sword was also danced by her with golden sword shadows. The two sword shadows intersected, and the sound of the swords clashing could be heard endlessly.

Asida's sword technique is powerful and powerful, while Beigong Ling's body technique is agile and strange.

The two sides fought for dozens of rounds, and neither could do anything to the other. However, Bei Gong Ling's breath was obviously uneven and he suffered a loss in physical strength.

Asida became more and more courageous as he fought, and was already in a state of madness. When he saw Bei Gong Ling resting his hands on his knees and panting, he took the opportunity to stride forward with the scimitar in his hand raised high, trying to finish his battle and kill Bei Gong Ling with one blow.However, as soon as Asida raised the sword with all his strength, Bei Gong Ling, who was holding his knees with both hands, suddenly raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

The originally bent legs kicked off, and the body jumped out diagonally, actively leaning towards Asida.

Because Asida's arms were too stretched, she didn't even have time to retract them at the moment when Bei Gong Ling was already approaching her.

With her chest wide open, Bei Gong Ling's pretty phantom flashed in front of Asida, then she touched the ground with one foot and spun around,
The person has passed under Asida's arm and gone around behind Asida.
At the same time, a "puff" sound sounded, and behind Bei Gongling, a cloud of blood mist sprayed out.

Asida's raised right hand fell down weakly, her left hand covered her chest and abdomen, and she slowly fell down.

Bei Gong Ling's gold-encrusted sword opened a half-foot long hole in the softest part of the waist and abdomen, and the internal organs in the abdomen spilled out.

Although Asida was extremely brave, in actual combat, it was obvious that Bei Gongling was smarter.

When the surrounding leaders saw that Asida was dead, they all knelt on the ground and worshiped Beigong Ling.

"The Qiang King is invincible, the Qiang King is invincible!"

At this moment, Beigong Ling was no longer the leader in their minds, but the true king of the entire Qiang and Hu clan.

Bei Gongling completely conquered the hearts of the leaders with his own force.

Shaking away the blood stains on the gold-encrusted sword, Bei Gongling shouted coldly,
"Pass my order, and all the warriors of the Qiang and Hu tribes will immediately send out troops to use the blood of the enemy to nourish the grassland given by the Immortal God."

"Ahhhhhhhhh~~~" The Qiang and Hu warriors were excited.

Not only did this battle not lead to civil strife among the Qiang and Hu, but the powerful combat power displayed by Bei Gong Ling allowed her to completely control the Qiang and Hu clan.

The leaders immediately returned to their respective tribes and brought all the capable warriors in the tribe to Jincheng to obey Bei Gong Ling's orders.

Since Liu Xuan's army entered Qiang and Hu territory, they have been harassed and attacked by Qiang and Hu cavalry one after another.

These Qiang and Hu people grew up on horses, and their riding skills are naturally better than Liu Xuan's cavalry. What's more, the Hetao area is their base camp, and the terrain is extremely favorable to them.

Fortunately, when cleaning up the Qiang and Hu people in Hedong County, Liu Xuan captured a lot of horses. At present, all the more than 1 soldiers under his command have mounts.

The original cavalry was equipped with one man and two cavalry, and their marching speed and mobility in chasing Qiang and Hu were greatly improved.

However, after entering Qiang and Hu territory, Liu Xuan's army had not achieved any decent results for several days.

There is no other reason. The Hetao Plain is no better than Hedong County and cannot form an effective encirclement.
If these Qiang and Hu cavalrymen who come and go like the wind cannot be surrounded, it will be difficult to kill them.

Beigong Ling was indeed a brave and resourceful man. After gathering all the Qiang and Hu warriors, he did not prevent them from facing Liu Xuan for a decisive battle. Instead, he broke them into pieces and turned the entire grassland into a battlefield for the Qiang and Hu warriors.

Anyway, they are nomadic people, and it is easy for tribes to move, so they are not afraid of Liu Xuan raiding them at all.

On the contrary, Liu Xuan lost many men and horses because he was led into unfavorable terrain by the Qiang and Hu people because he sent troops to pursue him several times.

"It seems that there are still capable people among the Qiang and Hu people." In the camp, Liu Xuan couldn't help but sigh after listening to Zhang Liao's report on the recent war situation.

Jia Xu handed a report to Liu Xuandao: "Lord, this is the information about the Qiang and Hu people that my subordinates have collected in recent days."

"The current Qiang King of Qiang Hu is named Beigong Ling. She is the daughter of Beigong Boyu, the former Qiang King. This woman can also be regarded as a hero among women. After taking over as the leader of the Qiang King, she managed all the tribal leaders to be docile. Post, the Qiang and Hu clan have unprecedented unity within themselves."

"A few days ago, Qiang King Beigong Ling defeated the Qiang warrior Asida who came to challenge him, and his prestige was unparalleled."

Jia Xu said with some approval: "This Bei Gong Ling is indeed a figure. His prestige in the hearts of the Qiang and Hu people is second only to the Changshengtian they believe in. We have arrested many Qiang and Hu people. No matter how tortured they are, there is nothing about Bei Gong Ling." No one is willing to disclose the information.”

Liu Xuan couldn't help laughing when he heard what Jia Xu said.

"They refuse to reveal it even to the death. Isn't it also a kind of disclosure?"

Jia Xu leaned slightly, leaned over and asked, "What do you mean, lord?"

"As you said, Beigong Ling is extremely important in the hearts of the Qiang and Hu people." Liu Xuan scratched his chin with his fingers and said slowly, "As long as people have something they care about, they will have weaknesses."

"Originally, I haven't figured out how to catch all the Qiang and Hus in one fell swoop. From this point of view, Beigong Ling is a good breakthrough point."

Jia Xu's eyes lit up, "Haha, in terms of insight into human nature, Jia is really not as good as my lord."

After saying that, he quickly took out another booklet from his wide sleeve and quickly flipped through a few pages to find the information.
"My lord, according to the clues collected, Beigong Ling should be in Jincheng, which is one of the only cities of the Qiang and Hu people in the Hetao area. It is also Beigong Boyu's hometown."

"Okay, no matter whether Bei Gong Ling is in Jincheng or not, she can't ignore her hometown."

Liu Xuan stood up and said to the generals, "Gather the troops immediately, advance at full speed, and point your sword at Jincheng."

Jia Xu suggested: "My lord, Jincheng is the capital of the Qiang and Hu people. If we go like this, we may be exposed prematurely. Give them enough time to prepare." Jia suggested that our army should continue to divide our troops to sweep, but not entangle with the Qiang and Hu people along the way. Only in this way can troops suddenly arrive at the city and seize the initiative in the war."

Liu Xuan heard this and praised him, "Okay, let's follow Wen He's plan."

The decision was made, Liu Xuan divided the more than 1 troops into four teams, Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun each led one team, Lu Bu led one team, Liu Xuan himself led one team, and divided into four teams to attack from east to west.

Five days later, before Bei Gong Ling could react, four teams of men suddenly rushed outside Jincheng and surrounded the four gates of Jincheng.

Liu Xuan dug trenches outside all four city gates and placed resisting horses. His intention was very clear, which was to trap everyone in the city.

At the beginning, the Qiang and Hu people in the city saw that the city gate was surrounded and immediately organized the cavalry in the city to charge.

However, in such a narrow battlefield outside the city gate, the Qiang and Hu cavalry were completely unable to avoid the impact of the iron pagoda. With only a few hundred iron pagodas, the cavalry leaving the city were scattered. The soldiers from the Tiger Camp in the rear took the opportunity to cover up and kill the Qiang and Hu cavalry who left the city. Return to the city.

Liu Xuan had more than 2000 people left, and 3000 people were stationed at each city gate.

The Tiefutu and Tiger Battalion cavalry were also divided into four, and they cooperated with the heavily armed infantry to block the four city gates.

Two days later, the trenches and horse-blocking arrangements were completed, and Zhao Yun came to report: "My lord, the defenses of the four gates of Jincheng have been properly arranged. The cavalry in the city tried to attack several times out of the city, but all failed. At the end of the day, there are not many soldiers and horses in the city. Attack now." The city can be conquered in one battle."

Liu Xuan waved his hand and said: "There is no rush to attack the city. If I came here to attack the city, why bother digging trenches and building defensive horses? I can break it when the troops approach the city."

Zhao Yun asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Then lord, what are we going to do now?"

"Wait." Liu Xuan said calmly, "Let the soldiers rest well and wait slowly."

"Wait for what?"

"Waiting for Qiang and Hu reinforcements."
