Hu Xiaotian suddenly burst out with an angry shout, and once again urged internal force from the sea of dantian qi, and completed an incredible triple slash in a short time, the same action, the same direction, but the power of the chopping was stronger than one time, the domineering sword qi slashed on the distorted light shield, the light shield could no longer remove Hu Xiaotian's powerful triple slash, and a gap appeared in the light shield connected from end to end, followed by a miserable cry, the invisible sword qi cut the light shield, and directly fell on the shoulder of one of the swordsmen, splitting his body diagonally in half, A cloud of crimson blood mist erupted from the broken cavity, and a thick bloody aura instantly diffused into the night.
The twelve swordsmen reacted almost simultaneously, they had to make up for the gap in the shortest possible time, but it was already too late.
Huo Shengnan would not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, with two arrows, the feather arrows actually drew two graceful arcs in the air, crossed and changed, and accurately broke through the gap torn by Hu Xiaotian, and shot the throats of the two swordsmen respectively.
The Tianluo Sword Formation, which had lost three people, collapsed in an instant, and Hu Xiaotian raised his long knife like a tiger out of the gate, pounced on the opponent's camp, without the need to release the sword qi, and the hand-to-hand combat was enough to defeat the opponent.
Those swordsmen saw that the situation was not good, and they fled one by one, and when they fled, they were knocked down by Hu Xiaotian, compared to Huo Shengnan's long-distance lethality, and at this moment she shot two more people.
Six of the thirteen swordsmen were killed on the spot, and the two of them could be said to have won a great victory, but there was one thing that made Hu Xiaotian quite regretful, Feng Xianlin actually escaped.
However, Hu Xiaotian didn't have the idea of continuing to pursue, this sword formation just now shocked him into a cold sweat, if it wasn't for the triple slash realized at the critical moment, he would really be trapped by them.
Now Hu Xiaotian's main concern is to return to the camp, and it seems that the fact that he came to Black Sand City is not a secret, since Feng Xianlin can know about it.
Maybe there are other enemies who can also know, don't look at their age, there are a lot of enemies to provoke, if these enemies swarm up to seek revenge on themselves, I am afraid that they will also be overwhelmed.
Hu Xiaotian and Huo Shengnan returned to their camp, and Chang Fanqi took more than 100 warriors to look outside the camp.
Anxiously waiting for their return, seeing them come back safely, Chang Fanqi was relieved, he told Hu Xiaotian that Zhuge Guanqi had been waiting in the tent all along, saying that there was something urgent to report to him.
Hu Xiaotian asked Huo Shengnan to go back to rest first, and he and Chang Fanqi came to Zhuge Guanqi's camp together.
Zhuge Guanqi was sitting under the lamp staring at the map, and when he saw Hu Xiaotian coming in, he wanted to get up to greet him, Hu Xiaotian smiled and said, "Brother Guanqi is sitting."
He and Chang Fanqi also came to Zhuge Guanqi and sat down.
Zhuge Guanqi said: "Lord, look at this map. ” Hu Xiaotian leaned over and looked at it, this was a local map, and he didn't see anything special from this map.
Zhuge Guanqi said: "Heisha City is low-lying, and there is a Hanging Yong River fifteen miles north of the city, which is a tributary of the Yongjiang River. ” Hu Xiaotian raised his eyes and looked, but saw that this Hanging Yong River arched in a zigzag shape in the north of Heisha City, enclosing almost all of Heisha City.
However, the distance is still far away, and the nearest place is fifteen miles.
He was a little puzzled.
But I don't know what these things Zhuge Guanqi said have to do with the upcoming peace talks Zhuge Guanqi said: "The riverbed of the Hanging Yong River is higher than that of Black Sand City, and the rain in the past two days has caused the water level of the Hanging Yong River to skyrocket. ” Chang Fanqi said: "Mr. is worried that the Hanging Yong River will be in danger of bursting the embankment, the rain has stopped, tonight is fine, tomorrow is the day of the four-party talks, after the talks, we will leave immediately, there should be no danger." ” Zhuge Guanqi said: "If it's just the weather, there shouldn't be any trouble."
However, if someone uses this incident to sabotage, I am afraid that it will be troublesome.
According to the difference between the terrain of the Hanging Yong River and the Black Sand City, once the Hanging Yong River bursts, within an hour, the flood will inevitably submerge the Black Sand City, and I am afraid that everyone in the city will not be spared. ” Hu Xiaotian nodded.
What Zhuge Guanqi said was the potential crisis around them, and he pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Fanqi, you send two hundred people to patrol the vicinity of the Hanging Yong River. ” Chang Fanqi said: "The Hanging Yong River is very long, and I'm afraid two hundred people are not enough."
"In fact, if you want to inspect the entire Tuoyong River, even if you transfer all the 1,000 people they came here this time, it is not enough.
Hu Xiaotian said: "With Xia Changming on guard in the air, two hundred people should be enough." ” Chang Fanqi said: "Or the last general will personally lead them there, if there is a real accident, it is good to have a response." ” Hu Xiaotian hadn't decided yet, Zhuge Guanqi had already said: "It's okay, if General Chang goes in person, it's best, you lead two hundred people over and garrison them in two places, some of them are in Niutou Mountain, and the other part is in Pingjinqiu, these two places are also the highest terrain on the south bank of the Hanging Yong River, and it is convenient for you to observe in these two places and find out whether there is any abnormality in the Hanging Yong River in time." ” Chang Fanqi said: "Sir, don't worry, I will fight with my life to ensure the embankment of the Hanging Yong River." ” Zhuge Guanqi shook his head and said: "The most important thing is to save the lives of the brothers, if it is safe and sound, of course it is the best, if things are out of control, you must remember that leading the brothers to gather to a high place can avoid the catastrophe."
He had a hunch in his heart that if something happened this time, the problem would inevitably lie in the Hanging Yong River.
Xia Changming had already inspected a hundred miles around Black Sand City, and did not find the situation of a large number of troops and horses, but Zhuge Guanqi was always unable to feel at ease, he thought about it, the biggest crisis around Black Sand City was still in the Hanging Yong River.
Chang Fanqi nodded.
Zhuge Guanqi said again: "The lord had better send someone to reveal this matter to Su Yuchi, after all, it is on his territory, our mobilization of men and horses may cause him to be suspicious, if Su Yuchi agrees to allocate some troops and horses to the berm of the Hanging Yong River, of course, it is the best, if he is not careful, we will do our best." ” Hu Xiaotian said to Chang Fanqi: "Brother Fanqi, this matter is hard for you." ” Chang Fanqi clenched his fists and left.
Although Hu Xiaotian knew that Zhuge Guanqi was outstandingly intelligent, he didn't think anything big would happen to the Hanging Yong River, he smiled and said: "In fact, even if something happens, Xia Changming can also detect it at the first time, it won't take too long to fly here from the Hanging Yong River, we still have time to escape." ” Zhuge Guanqi said: "The possibility of a levee burst is very small, but we must be fully prepared, after all, it is on someone else's territory, and this time Xichuan and Xingzhou did not send any important figures, it is not ruled out that someone is obstructing behind the scenes." ” Hu Xiaotian agreed: "It's always a good thing to plan ahead. ” Zhuge Guanqi said: "If something really happens, we must retreat to the south, there is a Tuolong Mountain twenty miles to the south, although the mountain is not high, but it should be able to avoid the flood, according to my calculations, from the bursting of the Hanging Yong River to the flood spreading to the Tuolong Mountain, the time left for us is about half an hour." ” Hu Xiaotian said: "In half an hour, we can reach Tuolong Mountain."
"The 1,000 men he accompanied this time were all cavalry, and with their speed, there would be absolutely no problem in marching twenty miles in half an hour.
What's more, the so-called river burst is only a hypothetical, and it is unlikely that this will happen.
Hu Xiaotian's reminder did not attract Su Yuchi's attention, the Quartet each brought a thousand soldiers, and Su Yuchi was unwilling to allocate a part of it, in his opinion, Hu Xiaotian was obviously a little nervous and made a big fuss.
Since Hu Xiaotian's side was so nervous, they tossed it, and Su Yuchi was too lazy to join in this boring excitement anyway.
In the early morning of the next day, Hu Xiaotian woke up and walked out of the tent, looked up at the sky, and saw that the weather was fine, and immediately relieved.
Zhuge Guanqi also came out of the tent, he looked up at the sky, and his expression was not relaxed.
Hu Xiaotian pointed to the rising sun in the east and said, "It doesn't seem to rain today." ” Zhuge Guanqi slowly shook his head and said, "There will be a heavy rain at noon. ” Hu Xiaotian knew that he was good at observing celestial phenomena, and looked up again, the sky was blue and clear, and he couldn't see even a trace of clouds, how could it rain in such weather, but the weather in summer changes rapidly, and maybe it may not be known if the sky changes later.
Huo Shengnan walked over from a distance and said with a smile: "There is another hour before we go to Black Sand City for talks, let's hurry up and eat." ” Hu Xiaotian said: "I hope everything goes well" He turned over and got on his horse, Huo Shengnan and Zhuge Guanqi were on his left and right, and led eight hundred soldiers to the open area north of Black Sand City.
At the same time as Hu Xiaotian's team started, he saw that more than 1,000 people and horses in Xichuan also began to move slowly towards the predetermined location, the scorching sun was in the sky, and the temperature rose a lot in a short time, there was no cloud in the sky, and there was no trace of wind, and it was very hot.
Hu Xiaotian covered his forehead with his hand and looked at the sky, then turned to Zhuge Guanqi and smiled, Zhuge Guanqi knew why he was laughing, Hu Xiaotian was clearly saying that it was impossible to rain in such weather.
Huo Shengnan said: "It seems that it won't rain." ” Zhuge Guanqi smiled: "I also hope that I make a mistake in judgment, and it is best not to rain." ” The team of Xichuan in front suddenly stopped, in fact, it was divided into two parts, the five hundred people in front continued to advance, while the remaining five hundred people deliberately lined up in an array to block the path of Hu Xiaotian's side.
Immediately, a soldier reported the matter to Hu Xiaotian, and Hu Xiaotian smiled disdainfully: "Yang Daoyuan is deliberately disgusting me." ” Huo Shengnan raised his eyes, but saw that the 500 soldiers in Xichuan in front of him blocked their way forward, deliberately walking and stopping and slowing down, if this continued, their marching process would be greatly slowed down, and maybe the time to reach the meeting place would be delayed.
Hu Xiaotian pointed to the big flag of Li Zi fluttering in the opponent's camp and said to Huo Shengnan: "Huo Shengnan, is their marching speed controlled by the standard-bearer?"
