After nearly a month of trekking, Liang Xiao finally walked out of the valley and arrived at Shache., Alyusu himself was not in Shache, only his subordinate Tie Huali led 3,000 cavalry to defend the town.Shache was originally a small oasis, but after the Yueshi moved west, they were conquered by the Yueshi and became a vassal of Aleusu, under the command of Tiehuali.At night, Liang Xiao lived in a tent outside the city, stretching out his feet and being helped by Alpha to carry blisters.For most of the time in the mountains, he could not ride a horse, but had to walk, and walked out of a foot of blistering, the old did not go, and the new came again, overlapping and covering the soles of his feet, which was shocking.It was the first time he had walked such a long distance on foot.Although his foot hurt, he was happy.Although the valley is difficult, the danger of the terrain also makes him aware of it.No wonder Vesuti said that he was too old to walk this way, so he could only camp at the western mouth of the Penchi River.For the 10,000 army led by him, it was indeed not an easy task to cross the green ridge.In other words, if Alyusu wants to cross the green ridge and attack the prison city, it is not so simple.Alyusu, who has no way back, should be easier to convince.After picking out the blisters, Liang Xiao washed his feet with hot water again, wrapped them in a cloth, and limped out to patrol the camp.This journey was too hard, everyone suffered a lot, and some people fell and died, everyone's mood was not very high, and he needed to be appeased in time.If it was in Dawan, he could reward them with some money, let them go drinking and watching the dance, and find a few women to relax, but now that he was in danger, he didn't dare to do so.Others don't know, he knows it in his own heart.He and Aliusu were not friends, and the three guards who shot and killed Zhen'an were the first, so they had little trust in each other.No one dared to guarantee that Zhen'an would not take the risk and arrange for someone to attack him.Liang Xiao walked over one tent after another and talked with the soldiers.Cheer them up and remind them to be vigilant and pay attention to what is going on around them.Seeing Liang Xiao personally patrolling, not to mention the Greek veterans, even the teenagers who had never seen the real battlefield suffering raised their vigilance and did not dare to be careless.The veterans looked at Liang Xiao.The eyes are warm, and there is a bit of relief in admiration.They originally thought that Liang Xiao was an envoy of a great country, a young man who was rich and noble, and he might not be able to endure hardships and the sin of war.Now it seems that Liang Xiao can still endure hardships, which is very different from Dawan's young magnates, and it was the right decision to follow Andrew's advice to join his command.They took the initiative to send a few veterans who could speak Yue's dialect to the market to understand the situation.Dig out the terrain and buy some supplies by the way.Liang Xiao was very satisfied and agreed.In the city, Tie Huali walked back and forth around the table full of wine and meat with his hands behind his back.Zhen'an sat behind the desk, facing a table of delicacies, he should have eaten a large piece of dry food for the march for more than a month, but when he thought of the situation.But he had no appetite at all.Again, after listening to his narration.Tie Huali is also a little unsavory.Although he looks rough, he is a man of confidence.Otherwise, Aleusu would not have left him to guard this place."
Vesuti led an army of 10,000 to hold the Penchi River, even if it was a bird, don't think about flying in front of him."
Tie Huali shook his head again and again."
What the hell is wrong with the Queen, the older she gets, the more confused she becomes.Prince Batu has gone to the Han Dynasty as a hostage, except for the crown prince.Who else can inherit the throne with the strength of the crown prince, conquering Daxia and Dawan is just a gesture, with Dawan's horse and Daxia's food, supply the army, and defeat Wusun" "You think too easily. ”Zhen'an unceremoniously interrupted Tie Huali."
If it weren't for the Dawan people, they attracted the main force of the Wusun people last year.How can we have the momentum we have now?
Speaking of which, we now have an army of fifty or sixty thousand, but this is just a sheep that has just been brought together, and has not yet turned into a real wolf.Hastily fight against the Wusun, and they will disperse in a hurry. ”Tie Huali looked at Zhen'an and sneered: "You are now like a horse that has been gelding, and you have no ambition at all." ”Zhen An snorted from his nose: "You are just a pheasant eating grass seeds in the valley, how do you know the power of the eagle."
I have seen the magical archery skills of the Han envoy with my own eyes, not to mention you, even the crown prince may not have a chance to defeat him.Do you know that the human bow, one of the three treasure bows of our Yue clan back then, is now in his hands. ”"Human Bow" Tie Huali was taken aback and doubted."
He can pull a human bow" "Can't see it" Zhen'an sighed: "Without the wisdom of the Buddha, how can you recognize the true God."
I've seen his archery with my own eyes, and I've seen the human bow.In my opinion, the bow in the hands of the prince is not yet an opponent.If you can snatch the human bow from him, it will be more useful than getting Princess Dawan. ”"The human bow also needs it, and Princess Dawan also wants it."
Tie Huali interrupted Zhen'an."
I want to meet with this messenger and test his qualities.If he is so heroic, I will immediately send a letter to the prince, so that he may be prepared.If that's not the case, I'll have to give him a good look. ”Zhen'an picked up his wine glass, his face expressionless, but a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes.Tie Huali saw it in his eyes, but pretended not to know.Tie Huali rode to Liang Xiao's camp with twenty guards.These guards were carefully selected by him, all of them were strong and fierce, with extraordinary martial arts, and rich combat experience, and they were real veterans of a hundred battles.Although there were only twenty people, their momentum was no less than a hundred, and the murderous aura on them could be felt from afar.After getting the news, Liang Xiaogao sat in the tent and was greeted by Pang Shuo.Eighteen mercenaries surrounded the big tent, and the rest of the foot cavalry guarded the camp in an orderly manner.Tie Huali saw it in his eyes, and was secretly vigilant.Although Liang Xiao only had 400 people, his camp was firmly established and had a lot of rules.After a long journey, he has not let his guard down despite his exhaustion, he is a cautious person, and there is no flaw to be found.Tie Huali dismounted at the tent door, and when he saw Pang Shuo in front of the tent, he couldn't help frowning.Pang Shuo is tall and mighty, and at first glance he is a powerful person, and his momentum is better than the guards behind him.Seeing that the other guards were either carrying bows and arrows, their eyes were like arrows, or they were wearing shields and holding spears, and their waists were straight, no less than the guards behind him, the arrogance in his heart suddenly folded a little."
Where is the messenger?"
Tie Huali asked in a deep voice, his face displeased.He has already arrived in front of the tent, and Liang Xiao still refuses to show up, and he is too faceless."
The messenger waits in the tent."
Pang Shuo said neither humbly nor arrogantly."
This general is the guardian of Shache ordered by the prince, shouldn't he be greeted by the envoy" Pang Shuo smiled slightly, a little disdainful and a little reserved."
The envoy holds the festival, representing my Han court.Not to mention the general, even if it is to meet the king of the Yue clan in person, it is also a courtesy.Could it be that the guardianship of Shache ordered by the prince is more noble than that of the king of the Yue clan," Tie Hua said.Although he didn't take the Queen of the Moon Clan in his eyes, he couldn't be rude in front of outsiders.As soon as he took a big shot, he was ready to enter the account with his steps, and the guards behind him hurriedly followed.Pang Shuo stretched out a hand, stopped Tie Huali, and said undoubtedly: "The messenger's big tent, idlers are not allowed to enter, the general can only bring one guard into the tent, and the others please wait outside the tent." ”Tie Huali narrowed his eyes and stared at Pang Shuo viciously.Pang Shuo's face was calm, looking down at Tie Huali condescendingly.Tie Huali looked at him for a moment, feeling more and more awkward, and seeing that there was no sound in the tent, Liang Xiao had no intention of showing up at all, so he had to turn around and wave his hand to the guards, and walked into the tent with only one personal guard.Liang Xiao'an sat behind the high case, and Tu Niu'er stood aside with his hands.Seeing Tie Hua leave the tent door, Liang Xiao stood up from behind the case, walked around, and laughed loudly: "I heard Lord Zhen'an say that Tie Hua is brave and strategic, and he is a general under the command of the prince.When I saw it today, I was a little disappointed. ”Tie Huali was forced to retreat by Pang Shuo, and he was not in a good mood, but when he heard this, the smile on his face stiffened.He looked at Liang Xiao and didn't know what Liang Xiao meant.He has also come into contact with some Han people, and he has the impression that Han people are more polite, but Liang Xiao's performance is so strong, not only does he not greet him, but he also says that he is very disappointed in him, which is very unexpected for Tie Huali, and he doesn't know how to answer for a while.Tie Huali suppressed his anger and said coldly: "Please ask the messenger for advice on this." ”"How much does the general know about last year's war" Liang Xiao walked up to Tie Huali, looked Tie Huali up and down, and smiled slightly.When he was in Jianshi City, he heard Axiana mention Tiehuali, and on the way, he heard Wei Suti and Zhen'an mention this person successively, and knew that he was one of the few wise generals under Aliusu.Judging from his current strain, his intelligence is probably very limited compared to the Yue people."
I know a little bit about it, I heard that the envoy attacked the camp with 100 horsemen in Suye City and shot and wounded Wudan."
Tie Huali deliberately made a disapproving look."
I have heard of the bravery of the messenger.However, I have some doubts about this.I came here today just to see with my own eyes, and I don't know if the envoy can show his skills and open my eyes. ”Liang Xiao smiled secretly in his heart.This is a door-to-door troublemaker.My dignified messenger will show you martial arts, but a simple refusal will not work, and he will be regarded as a weak-heartedness.These barbarians are respected as strong and look down on soft eggs the most, and if you want to convince them, you must show some real skills.Liang Xiao remained silent and asked rhetorically: "Does the general want to compete" Tie Huali hesitated for a moment.He originally wanted to tease Liang Xiao, but he didn't expect Liang Xiao not only not to refuse, but also directly proposed to compete in martial arts, which was very surprising.Letting Liang Xiao perform alone is to play with him, but if there is a competition, that is, the two sides will shoot at the same time, and there is a contest in it.Thinking of what Zhen'an said, Tie Hua was at a loss in his heart.He couldn't find anyone who could compete with Liang Xiao in archery.However, when it comes to this, he can't shrink back."
What is the messenger better than" Tie Huali smiled a little unnaturally."
You and I are both the ones who command the army, and if you want to compare, you will naturally fight in battle."
Liang Xiao said: "I have 400 foot riders, and there are many generals, not only 3,000 riders, but also more than 3,000 chariot soldiers.
