Chapter 297: The Scheming of a Muscular Man


In the darkness of the night, he could only be sure that he had shot Aleusu, and he was not absolutely sure where he had shot and whether he had hit the vital point.For safety, he aimed at Alyusu's abdomen, but who can guarantee that Alyusu will not bow his head, just after he shot him in the head, Alyusu stopped moving, not even making a sound, which is not a good sign.Although he declared a life-and-death duel to his subordinates and did not let his subordinates retaliate, if he really died, who would control those Yueshi people, who could ensure that they obeyed orders, and more importantly, if he died, all strategic plans would come to naught.Liang Xiao hesitated for a while, jumped off the horse, and walked towards the motionless Aliusu.The black horse snorted, the horse's hooves kicked the sand rattling, opened his mouth to bite the corner of Liang Xiao's clothes, and shook his head again and again, looking a little anxious.Liang Xiao was puzzled and turned to reassure it.The horse had followed him for a long time and had become a good friend who could not speak.There must be a reason why it is so uneasy all of a sudden.Liang Xiao was vigilant and listened attentively, and at the same time held the bow in his left hand, put on the arrow, and prepared for the contingency.At this moment, Aliusu, who had been lying on the ground, suddenly jumped up, roared angrily, and pounced on Liang Xiao.Hearing the wind behind him, Liang Xiao shot reflexively without thinking.Hook the string, open the bow, release the arrow, all in one go.Aliusu snorted, his fluttering figure sluggish.Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liang Xiao flew up and jumped on his mount.Seeing this, Aliusu endured the severe pain, pounced again, jumped up a few steps away, and reached out to grab Liang Xiao on horseback.Seeing that his stretch was about to touch Liang Xiao's back, the black horse suddenly turned around, aimed at Aliusu, raised his hind hooves and kicked.With two "woohoos", Aliusu was kicked more than ten steps away and fell to the ground heavily.With a "wow", he spit out two mouthfuls of blood.He couldn't stand the pain anymore, clutched his chest, and got up in pain.Liang Xiao's back was covered in cold sweat.Think about Aliusu's physique.If he catches him, you can imagine what it will be.If it weren't for Mingzhu's warning and kicking Alyusu away, the consequences would be worrying now, not only would he not be able to keep the bow.And he will be grabbed by Alusu and beaten by Haibian.I can't imagine that this muscular man still has this scheming, it's really unseemly.I was deceived by his appearance, but I forgot that this was a hero who had fought for many years, and almost fell into his trap."

Mingzhu, thank you, go back and feed you some good food."

Mingzhu hissed with his head held high, with three points of pride, shook his mane, and galloped away with a brisk pace.Horse's hooves are heard.Everyone turned their eyes in unison.Seeing that only Liang Xiao came back, but he couldn't see Aliusu's figure, Tu Niu'er and the others breathed a sigh of relief, but the Yue's people exploded.Aleusu's personal guards unanimately drew their weapons and surrounded them.When Tu Niu'er, Pang Shuo and the others saw it, they couldn't help but say, stretched their bows and arrows, raised their shields and drew their swords, and protected Liang Xiao in front of him.For a time, the atmosphere was tense.A conflict looms.Liang Xiao waved his hand, handed the bow in his hand to Sigma, and shouted loudly: "Zhen'an" really arranged for everyone to come out and come to Liang Xiao.His face turned pale.His eyes were flustered, and he was obviously out of order."

Your envoy, my prince" "Your prince is injured and has fallen off the horse, go and save him." ”When Zhen'an heard this, he was relieved and hurriedly greeted a few knights.Carrying a torch, he galloped away.Liang Xiao got off the horse, looked at the Yue's people who were struggling with arrows, laughed, ignored them, took the feed bag from the prepared horse and put it in front of the black horse.The black horse hung his neck and ate it with relish, snorting from time to time.Seeing Liang Xiao like this, the Yue's people also relaxed a little, and slowly retreated, but refused to disperse, still holding their weapons tightly, and surrounded Liang Xiao and the others with fierce eyes.After a while, there was a chaotic sound of horses' hooves, and Zhen'an galloped back and shouted a few words.When the Yueshi people heard this, they didn't care about Liang Xiao anymore and dispersed one after another.Zhen'an jumped off the horse and walked quickly in front of Liang Xiao, the cold sweat on his forehead shining under the torch."

Your envoy, it's dangerous."

Liang Xiao glanced at him, and raised his eyebrows: "Not dead" There was a bit of regret in his tone.Zhen'an was stunned and a little unhappy."

Your envoy really wants to shoot my prince" "It's your prince who wants my life, what else can I be polite to him" Liang Xiao spat fiercely and sneered: "I don't know what to do, it's innocent to die."

If your skills are not as good as others, you will sneak attack from behind, the so-called Yue's heroes are nothing more than that, and I can be regarded as a guide. ”Liang Xiao spoke Chinese, and Zhen'an didn't understand it very well.However, the translator understood, but he didn't dare to say it directly, but muttered a few words in Zhen'an's ear.Zhen'an's face changed slightly.When he saw Alyusu's injury, he felt a little strange, and now that he heard Liang Xiao say this, he realized that there must be something hidden in it.He slowed his tone and lowered his voice."

Honorable envoy, what the hell is going on" Liang Xiao shrugged."

Go back and ask your prince, I'm embarrassed to say."

Embarrassed, Zhenan turned to leave.Liang Xiao ordered to set up camp.No matter how badly Aliusu was injured, he couldn't walk now, and he couldn't leave.In this case, it is better to be calm, so as not to intensify the contradictions and cause unnecessary conflicts.As soon as the camp was set up, Zhen'an rushed back again, followed by a few guards, holding pots of wine in their hands, driving a herd of sheep, estimated to be hundreds, and a few horses, carrying large and small packages on their backs.Zhen'an walked up to Liang Xiao with a happy face."

Your envoy, my prince is safe, and he gave these sheep and wine to your envoy.Please rest here for the night, and then ask you to discuss the matter tomorrow. ”Liang Xiao nodded."

The injury is out of the way" "Hmm" Zhenan hesitated for a moment."

It's not a big deal.However, he injured his thigh and couldn't ride a horse for a short time. ”Liang Xiao smiled and didn't say anything more.He took the gifts, ordered the sheep to be slaughtered, prepared supper, and distributed all the wine.After so many days of hard work, I can finally relax.The soldiers were jubilant.Jincheng, the crossing of the Yellow River.Dongfang Shuo, who was traveling west, met Li Shuyun, who returned to the east.After unloading most of the goods, the speed of Li Shuyun and the others increased greatly, and their luck seemed to be better, and they almost did not encounter large-scale Wusun and Huns along the way.Even if they encountered sporadic Qiang people and saw these more than 300 well-equipped mercenaries, no one dared to fight the idea of a caravan.After more than a month of trekking and traveling more than 4,000 miles, they successfully arrived in Jincheng.After crossing the Yellow River, they entered the Han realm.Li Shuyun was very happy.After communicating with Dongfang Shuo, I realized that my luck was largely related to Liang Xiao.Whether it is the Wusun people or the Huns, they may have received orders from the Xiongnu Shan Yu and are assembling on the grassland, and the empty troops in the Hexi Corridor let him pass so easily."

How many people went west" "I don't know yet. ”Dongfang Shuo said: "When I left Chang'an, I only knew that the Huns might have action.The Son of Heaven arranged for three generals, Li Guang, Cheng Buzhi and Han Anguo, to strengthen the defense of the border.Limited by the public opinion of the imperial court, it is impossible for them to leave the country in a big way, and they may not even leave the country.Therefore, if Liang Xiao wants to stabilize the Western Regions, he has to rely on himself. ”Li Shuyun was taken aback.He participated in the battle at the beginning of the year, and knew the strength of the Dawan people and the Yueshi people, if it was really the Huns' large-scale westward expedition, no matter how strong Liang Xiao was, he would not be able to stop the Huns."

What are you doing in the Western Regions" Dongfang Shuo sighed: "I have been in Chang'an for so long, he is the only friend who is willing to spend money, I can't watch him being bullied by the Huns, so I naturally have to rush to help him."

Listening to Guo Yu, Dawan not only has BMWs, fine wine, but also beauties, and I also want to see it. ”Li Shuyun was silent.He knew that Dongfang Shuo had always been in no shape.However, because Liang Xiao encountered difficulties, he was able to abandon his official position and travel thousands of miles to help Liang Xiao, and this chivalrous spirit was not inferior to that of any ranger.You must know that when they left Chang'an last year, Dongfang Shuo was already a Taizhong doctor with more than 2,000 stones, and a close minister by the Son of Heaven.Li Shuyun hesitated for a moment and gritted his teeth."

Sir, I'll arrange for it to return to the Western Regions with you.""

You don't go to Chang'an" "If you don't go, the war in the Western Regions is important."

There aren't many trustworthy people around adults, and I should go back to help him. ”Dongfang Shuo thought about it and shook his head."

No, it's better for you to go to Chang'an.Only you can inform the Son of Heaven about the situation in the Western Regions.Or ask the Son of Heaven to issue an edict, or persuade some like-minded friends to go to the Western Regions together, it is more useful than you alone.If you have time, it would be good for you to go to Shangjun, meet General Li Guang, tell him about the situation in the Western Regions, and let him arrange some manpower. ”Li Shuyun felt reasonable, and after discussing with Guo Wenbin and others, he decided to divide the troops into two routes.He and Guo Wenbin took Dawan horses and escorted Batu back to Chang'an to report to the Son of Heaven, and the caravan was led by other merchants and slowly advanced.Anyway, they have already entered the Han realm, so they don't have to worry about the attack of the Huns, it doesn't matter if they go a little slower.Guo Wenbin can arrange sales channels for them in advance, and they can trade when they arrive in Chang'an without delaying time.In order to protect Dongfang Shuo and improve his speed of action, Li Shuyun ordered Linghu to lead most of the mercenaries to return to the Western Regions with Dongfang Shuo.Although it was a pity for these mercenaries to be so close to Chang'an that they didn't have a chance to take a look at Chang'an City, the task of protecting Dongfang Shuo was more important.As long as he helps Liang Xiao make great contributions, there will be more opportunities for Chang'an in the future.The discussion was decided, and Li Shuyun and Guo Wenbin led fifty mercenaries and drove more than 100 Dawan horses to Chang'an.Before leaving, Li Shuyun avoided Guo Wenbin and others, and quietly told Dongfang Shuo the location of the treasure to yznn:
