Two black dots appeared in the morning light, and slowly the black dots stretched out, and two people galloping on horses appeared, they were Li Ke and Chen Qi.Li Ke and Chen Qi looked dusty, and their clothes were covered with a faint layer of frost.And the blood on Chen Qi's body had already solidified, and in the cold winter morning, the armor on his body seemed stiff, wrapping him in it, like a mechanical armor.

Li Ke reined in his breathless horse, panting slightly, "How far are we from Lingzhou?"

"If we continue to rest during the day and travel at night, it will take another three days." Chen Qi said affirmatively.Li Ke and the two of them deliberately chose to travel at night and rest during the day in order not to be traced by the Turkic air scouts again.Therefore, their speed has been reduced a lot.Today is the tenth day since Di Zhixun left, and they are still wandering in Mobei, three days away from Lingzhou in Datang.

"Get off the horse and rest!" Li Ke sighed, "Find a hidden place to rest, and we will continue on our way at night."

"No..." Chen Qi agreed, and began to look for water sources and camping places nearby, while Li Ke looked at the rising sun in the east, with tears in his eyes.Because of my stupid impulsiveness, I didn't expect to encounter such a result.He himself doesn't complain about what happened in Turkic, but what about his [-] Tang soldiers?And what about Qian Ning's three hundred men?Aren't these all sacrificed for oneself?

If I could be wiser, consider more issues under the circumstances at that time, and properly handle the conflict between myself and Schroeder, then his eight hundred guards would not die. Mobei, Channing's Three hundred cavalry would not die innocently.As the saying goes, "Gentle Township is a tomb of heroes." Then, I am not a hero, but let more than 1000 soldiers of the Tang Dynasty die in Mobei for this.Aren't you selfish?Aren't you shameless?

"Turk, Schroeder, if I, Li Ke, can return to Datang safely, I, Li Ke, will definitely make you pay for the humiliation suffered by Turkic this time and the enmity of a thousand athletes in Datang." When he fell, he saw the Yuanhong sword in Li Ke's hand across his bun, and a strand of hair fell to the ground.Li Ke slashed his will, and strengthened his determination to avenge his shame.

Chen Qi found a three-foot-square frozen pond in a low-lying place, and then used a Tang knife to chisel out a hole the size of a skull. He took out a little water from it with his helmet, and handed it to Li. Ke.Li Ke took the water Chen Qi handed him, glanced at the icy raw water floating on it, and drank it without thinking.For fear of being discovered by the Turkic people, neither of them dared to start a fire. They ate cold horse meat and drank ice water along the way.Then, Chen Qi took out a few more pieces of horse meat and handed them to Li Ke. Li Ke took a few pieces of frozen hard horse meat and ate them with ice water before wading down on the floor that Chen Qi had made for him.Chen Qi wolfed down the remaining pieces of horse meat after Li Ke had finished eating.Then, he stood up and looked around for a while, then returned to Li Ke and said, "His Royal Highness, you can sleep peacefully, and I will go out to inspect in the end."

"Chen Qi," Li Ke shouted, "you don't need to patrol, you can also take a break. You travel at night, and you have to be on duty for the king during the day. Even an iron man can't handle it. Let alone you who are injured?"

"Your Highness, the general is fine. Your Highness's safety is important, and the minor injury of the latter is nothing serious." Chen Qi declined. He knew that he hadn't left Mobei at this time, and he was still in the sphere of influence of the Turkic people. main idea.

Then, how could Li Ke not know that Chen Qi's energy was almost exhausted at this time.His body has been severely overdrawn. If he does not rest in time, if he falls down again, he will never be able to stand up again.So, he said in an orderly tone, "What's the matter with you? Now that you have grown up, you don't listen to what I say. Just stay and rest."

"Your Highness." Chen Qi still wanted to quibble, but Li Ke flatly refused, "It is the coldest time in the morning, and the frost on the ground has not yet melted. Turkic people will not be active at this time, so you can rest assured. Mr. I'll keep an eye on you, you can replace me at noon, and I'll rest for a while."

"No..." Chen Qi nodded fiercely, then covered his head and fell on the floor he had laid for Li Ke in advance.

Li Ke turned his gaze to look around, but there was no sign of anyone moving in his line of sight.Then he got up, walked to the side of the horse that was searching for weeds on the remaining snow-covered strata, got on the horse, and disappeared into the place where the sun was rising.

It was about noon, when Li Ke returned to the station, Chen Qi was already awake.Li Ke said to Chen Qi, "There is no one around, you don't have to go too far, you can just watch around here, and we will set off immediately at five o'clock." Then, he fell down on the floor where Chen Qi was resting just now.

Li Ke didn't sleep well, and finally forced himself to fall asleep, but he and Chen Qi were surrounded by a group of Turks and couldn't escape.The Turkic people rushed up to him and Chen Qi like crazy people, they killed one group and another group rushed up again, they couldn't kill them all.Suddenly, Li Ke saw a cold light flash in front of his eyes. He felt his neck go cold. When he touched his neck with his hand, he found that his hand was full of blood.

"Ah!" Li Ke yelled, and finally woke up, "Chen Qi, Chen Qi!" He shouted loudly, but after all, he couldn't hear Chen Qi's voice answering him.

Li Ke felt bad, turned over and rode his horse to search for Chen Qi's track in the northeast direction.He felt that Chen Qi probably found something suspicious or something went wrong, otherwise he would never have been able to leave him for so long, and he would answer whenever he called him.Li Ke rode his horse and galloped not far away, when he saw a black shadow getting closer in front of him.Li Ke raised his eyes and looked carefully, and it turned out to be Chen Qi.Apparently, Chen Qi also spotted Li Ke, and slapped the horse under his crotch vigorously, and at the same time signaled with his hand that there were Turkic cavalry behind Li Ke.

Li Ke understood what Chen Qi meant, and was startled when he was about to look to the northeast.As far as he could see, a dark shadow appeared in the northeast sky.If it is the Turkic cavalry, there are a total of 200 people.Just as Li Ke was judging the number of Turkic cavalry on the opposite side, Chen Qi had already returned to Li Ke.His face was reddish, and he said out of breath, "Your Highness, there are 200 Turkic cavalry that appeared in the northeast direction. You hurry up, and I will give you the rear at the end."

After listening to Chen Qi's words, Li Ke sat on his horse without moving, his eyes fixed on the Turkic soldiers who were getting closer.

"Your Highness, please leave quickly. There are a large number of Turkic people, and you and I will definitely not be their opponents." Chen Qi said firmly, "Chen Qi will risk his life to resist them and buy time for His Highness."

"No need, we can't escape." Li Ke looked up at the sky, and said lightly, "They came prepared, how could they let me go back to Tang so easily." Chu was terrified because he was facing the danger of being killed.

Following Li Ke's gaze, Chen Qi saw the eagle hovering in the sky, and immediately understood what Li Ke said just now.He gazed at the eagle in the sky, then moved his eyes to the Turkic cavalry whose eyes could clearly see the facial expressions, tightly holding the Tang knife specially made for him by Li Ke, with a look of aloofness on his face.

The Turkic cavalry stopped at a distance of thirty steps in front of Li Ke, and then a Turkic leader who was soaked in blood, his face was blue with cold, but his eyes were shining, stepped forward two steps, "Your Highness is walking too fast. It's not that I travel day and night, I'm afraid it will be difficult to meet His Highness."

Li Ke didn't answer, and quietly watched the Turkic man who could speak Chinese.

"Your Highness is thinking, why do I understand Chinese?" The Turkic leader smiled and said, "I have lived in Tang Dynasty for nearly ten years, so it is not surprising that I can speak Chinese."

Li Ke remained silent, staring closely at the man in front of him.

"Your Highness, I admire your subordinates. I admire such soldiers of the Tang Dynasty." The leader continued, "The 400 soldiers cost me a total of [-] Turks, and I even suffered a few knives. I am worthy of the Tang Dynasty. A truly elite division. If they have another hundred reinforcements, we may be the ones who fell on the grassland.” Then, he changed the subject, “However, victory belongs to the strong in the grassland, and they will die in the end. under our scimitars and iron hooves."

"Have you finished?" Li Ke said lightly, with disgust for the other party revealed in his eyes.Since he was doomed to die in the grassland, why should he die so violently?Li Ke thought so, and slowly pulled out his saber, jealous, and the murderous intent in his eyes was fixed on the face of the Turkic leader, "Then what's the matter, come here if you are not afraid of death!"

"Up" the Turkic leader was a little panicked by the cold and murderous stare in Li Ke's eyes, and his smiling face suddenly became stiff and gloomy.

At the command of the leader, twenty Turkic cavalry rushed towards Li Ke and Chen Qi.Chen Qi rushed out before Li Ke and met the first Turkic cavalry who rushed up.He raised the knife high with both hands, and slashed at the Turkic cavalry in front of him.The Turkic cavalry's scimitar only stabbed towards Chen Qi's chest.However, his knife stopped three inches from Chen Qi's chest.Because, Chen Qi's knife hit his head, and his body was divided into two halves from the center of the head and fell off the horse's back.Chen Qi's speed was so fast and the knife was so ruthless that he didn't even have a chance to shout out.

After Chen Qi killed the first person, he let out a loud roar, and saw the second Turkic man rushing up and slashed at his waist with a knife. Chen Qi leaned back and spread his body on the horse's back. He dodged a knife from the Turkic cavalry on his back, turned over suddenly after the scimitar crossed the tip of his nose, and made a powerful backhand knife. With a sound of "ah", he saw Chen Qi being cut in half diagonally from the shoulder.

"Pfft" blood gushed out, dyeing Chen Qi into a bloody man.Regardless of the warm blood on his face, Chen Qi continued to kill the Turkic cavalry who rushed towards Li Ke.Two swords hit two Turkic warriors, and Chen Qi's preemptive momentum finally suppressed the Turks.The Turkic people were not as aggressive as before, but they seemed a little panicked when they fought against Chen Qi.
