Cao Thief

Chapter 403 Huns, Huns ([-])

Midsummer is approaching, and the sun is scorching in the Central Plains at this time, but it is extremely cool in the plug.

At this time, it is the season when the pasture is abundant, but it is also the time when the conflict is the most intense.For a piece of lush pastureland, tribes often fight...

"My lord, hold on a little longer, Shizuishan is ahead."

A war horse, a man crumbling.

He was covered in blood, lying on the horse's back, barely able to sit still.

Behind him, there are still more than a dozen retinues closely following him.A squire dressed as a Hun urged his horse forward and gave the man a hand.

Only then did the man stabilize his body, and when he looked up, he saw the mountains in the distance already faintly visible.

He grabbed a water bag from the horse's back, and after gurgling for a couple of sips, he felt slightly refreshed...

"Go, go home."

Gritting his teeth, he drew the rein and was about to urge the horse.

There was the sound of rumbling hooves behind him, and more than a hundred riders appeared from a distance, chasing after them like lightning.

"Damn Liu Bao, do you want to kill them all?"

The man spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, drew out a long knife with his backhand, and was about to go up to him.The servant was taken aback, and quickly stopped the man.

"My lord, don't love to fight...

This time, Liu Bao wanted to put his master to death, but if he fought against him, it would be exactly what he wanted.I will try my best to stop it, please go quickly, my lord. "

"Hongdu, you must live!"

"My lord, don't worry, Hong Du won't die."

As the young man spoke, he turned his horse's head and shouted sharply: "Son of Tanshihuai, follow me to protect the adults and evacuate."

More than a dozen knights shouted at the same time, picking up their bows and urging their horses to charge back.

The man didn't dare to hesitate, so he pulled his horse and left.

More than a hundred riders in the distance are getting closer and closer, and the knights on the horses are all dressed in Hun costumes. The most striking thing is their unique braided hair, which makes people recognize their origins at a glance.The so-called kunfa is a hairstyle in which the top part of the head is shaved, and the surrounding hair is grown into small braids.The face is slightly larger, with high cheekbones, slightly sunken eye sockets, and fair complexion.These people were the Huns who had caused countless disasters to the Han people.

Seeing the young people rushing towards them, the leader of the Huns uttered a series of strange syllables.

More than a hundred riders scattered in an instant, drawing bows and shooting arrows.The young Hong Du fought back while dodging on his horse.

In just a few hundred steps, people kept falling off their horses.

This is also the most common way of confrontation among the Saibeihu people. For a while, arrows rained like rain, and there was a constant exchange.

Hongdu's riding and archery skills are obviously superb.Without a saddle or stirrup, his whole body seemed to be integrated with the horse. The Huns' arrows rained extremely fiercely, but they couldn't hurt him.At the same time, he continued to fight back. After killing three Huns in a blink of an eye, the mount under his crotch suddenly let out a long and shrill hiss, and fell to the ground with a plop.

He can dodge arrows, but horses are hard to dodge.

After Hongdu fell off his horse, more than a dozen Huns rushed towards him roaring.

"Yong Nu, you don't want to kill me."

Hong Du rolled over on the ground and jumped up with a whimper, with a gleaming long knife already in his hand.If you observe carefully, you will find that the long knife in his hand is actually the standard steel knife that Cao Junli just started to implement.With a touch of dark red on the spine of the knife, it flashed in the air.A leader of the Huns fell off his horse with a single blow of his sword. Hongdu ran quickly, and caught up with the ownerless horse in two or three steps. Jump on horseback.The war horse didn't even know that its owner had changed to someone else... Hong Du suddenly leaned over on the horse, and pushed the long knife horizontally in his hand, and a Hun next to him suddenly fell twice.

It's too late, it's too soon.

It took only a dozen breaths from when Hongdu fell from his horse to when he mounted his horse again to kill the enemy.

But in these ten or so breaths, most of Hongdu's companions have been lost, only three or five people are left, and all of them are injured.

"Hongdu, King Zuoxian respects you as a good man, why bother to follow Tan Zhe and work hard?
If you are willing to surrender to Zuo Xianwang, not only can you not die, women, cattle and horses, you can choose, you don't have to make mistakes. "

"Yongnu, the eagle has only one master in its lifetime.

Liu Bao wanted me to surrender, but that was a dream... Is the kindness between Lord Tan and me comparable to that of a cow and a woman? "

After Hong Du finished speaking, they will meet again.

But the few remaining followers stopped him.

"Hongdu, follow in the footsteps of your lord, we are here."

Hong Du hesitated for a moment, nodded, and suddenly raised his head to the sky and screamed, "Boys of Tanshihuai, charge!"

The Huns named Yongnu had a look of hostility in his eyes.

"Since you want to die, then I will fulfill you...kill them."

The Huns roared and urged their horses to gallop.

Without any fear, several followers bent their bows and set up arrows, and rushed towards the Huns.

Tears flashed across Hong Du's eyes, he turned the horse's head abruptly, turned around and left.

"Hongdu, you coward, how dare you run away."

Yong Nu didn't expect that Hong Du would flee in battle.You know, Hong Du has the nickname of the Wolf of Black Water, fierce and brave, and is the number one general of Heishui Xianbei.Yong Nu came this time with the idea of ​​killing Hongdu, but he never thought that Hongdu would leave without a fight.He roared, urging his horse to pursue... But those followers tried their best to stop him.

Three or five retinues actually held back Yong Nu's footsteps.

After Yong Nu killed these subordinates, Hong Du had already run out for nearly a mile.

"Chasing, if you don't kill Hongdu, you will never withdraw your troops."

Yongnu shouted sharply, leading the Xiongnu soldiers, and galloped towards the direction where Hongdu was fleeing.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++
Shizuishan is named after the confluence of the Helan Mountains and the Yellow River 'the rocks protrude like a mouth'.

Here, it is the south of the Yangtze River, which is extremely rich in product resources.

Compared with the desolation and vastness of later generations, Shizuishan at this time is full of greenery and full of vitality.The vegetation here has not been cut down extensively, nor has it been baptized by war.From Shizuishan to the north, it is an out-and-out 'hu area'.

Cao Peng can already ride a horse, and his spirit looks much better than the previous few days.

It's just that his face is still slightly pale and a little weak.The injuries on his body have mostly healed, but he is unable to fight in battle.The power of Leng Fei's sword cannot be recovered in a short while.But at least, he no longer has to worry about his life.Cao Peng looked calm on the surface, but he still had some worries in his heart... because Leng Fei's whereabouts have not been found yet.Even with Zhou Liang's help, there was still no clue.This makes Cao Peng always a little uneasy.

Leng Fei has become a thorn in Cao Peng's heart.

This guy's kung fu is too powerful, and he doesn't belong to the kind of face-to-face enemy.

He hides in the dark, and may give Cao Peng a fatal blow at any time.Even if Cao Peng is confident that he can block Leng Fei's assassination, it's not a thing to worry about all day long. Cao Peng fully understands the truth of "Don't be afraid of thieves stealing, but be afraid of thieves worrying about you".It is also for this reason that Cao Peng wanted to kill Leng Fei even more.

"Zhou Liang said that there are no clues to be found."

"Has the entire inner camp been checked?"

Pang Tong said softly: "I've checked them all... However, in the inner camp, there are still pieces of the Marquis of Linyi. Although Zhou Liang controls the inner camp, the Marquis of Linyi can't find it. He sent someone to say that the Marquis of Linyi was on guard. It's very strict, and he doesn't dare to show his feet easily. He just said, please bear with me for a while, and when he has the opportunity, he will definitely try to find it..."

"Let him... protect himself."

Cao Peng frowned, and whispered to Pang Tong.

Although Leng Fei is dangerous, Cao Peng doesn't want to expose the hidden clues he has buried so hard because of this Leng Fei.

Zhou Liang is more useful in the palace.

If it's for a Leng Fei...

"Ah Fu, do you think Leng Fei will die?"

"What do you say?"

Pang Tong stopped speaking immediately, shrugged his shoulders, and gave a wry smile.

Cao Peng firmly believes that Leng Fei is not dead.With his skill, how could he die so easily?Of course Liu Guang will try his best to protect this Leng Fei, because this Leng Fei is his trump card.But if Leng Fei is not resolved, it will be a trouble after all.

Thinking of this, Cao Peng suddenly coughed lightly.

He took out a square handkerchief from his arms, covered his mouth, and threw it on the ground.

The team continued to march, and the Shizuishan Pass was faintly visible.

An internal attendant walked by the side of the road, seeing that no one was paying attention, he secretly picked up the handkerchief from the ground, only to see that it was stained with bright red blood.

There was a cold smile on his face, and he limped immediately, continuing to march with the brigade...

When you come out of Shizuishan, you can see a wide field of vision.

The sky is dark and the fields are vast, and the haste of Saibei makes people suddenly feel broad-minded.

"If you want to ask about the side of the bicycle, it belongs to the country and passes through Juyan. When you conquer Peng, you go out of Hansai, and you go back to Hutian.

The lonely smoke in the desert is straight, and the sun is setting in the long river.Every time Xiao Guan rides, he protects Yan Ran... Really good poetry! "

Cao Peng couldn't help muttering to himself, and then a smile appeared on his pale face.

Pang Tong looked at him from the side, and couldn't help laughing: "Ah Fu, I've never seen a narcissist like you, how can I praise myself?"

"what?"

Cao Peng was taken aback for a moment, but immediately realized, he smiled wryly in his heart.

Wang Wei's "Envoy to the Fortress" fits the scene today.The bad thing was his last sentence, which caused Pang Tong to misunderstand.

However, it doesn't matter, narcissism is narcissism, it's better than self-comfort.

Cao Peng was about to speak when he saw the army horses in front of him stop.

He hurriedly asked, "Why are you stationed?"

"Captain Cao, there are people ahead..."

When Cao Peng heard this, he hurriedly urged his horse to rush to a high place, and set up an awning to look.

I saw a horse coming from the wasteland, and immediately a young man was prostrate on the horse's back.

Just meeting the convoy, the horse stopped immediately.The young man on horseback immediately fell to the ground, unconscious.

"It seems to be being hunted down?"

Cao Peng took Han De Wang Shuang and hurried over on his horse.

Seeing that several guards had arrived beside the young man, Han De recognized the young man's attire at a glance, and hurriedly said to Cao Peng: "Master, this guy seems to be from Xianbei."

"Xianbei people?"

Cao Peng was taken aback.

If it had been 20 years earlier, he would have had some concerns about the Xianbei people.

But now...

He got off his horse and went forward, Tian Shao rushed to meet him, holding a long knife in his hand, and handed it to Cao Peng.

"My lord, this knife seems to have been made by Marquis Feng Che."

"Oh?"

When Cao Peng heard this, he couldn't help showing curiosity, and reached out to take the long knife.

At this moment, a group of Huns came galloping in the distance, with the sound of iron hoofs, and strange howls from the population of the Huns, the momentum was amazing.

"Han barbarians, keep the goods and hand over Hongdu!"

Yong Nu's cry reached Cao Peng's ears.

However, Yongnu was yelling in Xiongnu dialect, and Cao Peng couldn't quite understand it, so he turned around and asked, "What is that guy yelling?"
