Chapter 83 Never give up
Tang Chao left the Turkic military camp in an uneasy mood, feeling like he had won a jackpot in gambling. Damn it, Xu Liesheng was not an idiot, and he put aside the temporary grudges and reached an agreement with himself.
He originally thought that this guy might kill his love rival like some arrogant men when he thought that his woman had been played by him, but now Xu Liesheng obviously still puts his own future first and has no emotion.
But what Tang Chao didn't expect was that this beautiful princess would actually fall in love with him after being captured by him. What he didn't expect even more was that she actually said that she liked him in front of Xu Liesheng and other generals.
With the ears of these generals, they could hear her words clearly.
However, Tang Chao immediately galvanized his horse and headed towards the oasis where the army was stationed. He was still on guard against Xu Liesheng's conspiracy. With the strength of the Turks, if they had just swarmed up in the tent, Tang Chao would have heaven-reaching martial arts. , it is also more dangerous than good. After all, in martial arts, there are very few enemies with one person, ten enemies, and hundreds of enemies. Those with thousands of enemies exist in myths. It is said that the Song Dynasty general Yang Zaixing killed three thousand Jin soldiers on Xiaoshang Bridge. It is suspected that later historians felt that Jin Bing was too cruel and deliberately exaggerated the words. Moreover, "Shuo Yue Quan Zhuan" is a novel, and there are fictitious elements in it, so it is difficult to win people's trust.
But the real top masters, with the combat effectiveness of the elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, may be defeated by a hundred people. No matter how many more, they may not be defeated. Therefore, no matter how high their martial arts skills are, people of all ages still have to surrender to the army before they can exert their greatest abilities. That is Because after all, the courage of an ordinary man is only suitable for assassinations or battles in the arena, but cannot produce the power to destroy cities and create political power.
From this perspective, it makes sense for the Tang people to attach great importance to imperial examinations and promote literary affairs.
But the worries of the Tang Dynasty were unnecessary. Until they returned to the camp, they did not encounter a Turkic cavalry ambush. Obviously, under the obvious situation, Xu Liesheng had realized that if he continued to fight with the Tang Dynasty, he would be defeated. It was so tragic that an army of 100,000 people would be destroyed in his own hands. He never dreamed that the Turkic cavalry traveling across the Western Regions would be trapped to death due to lack of food and fodder.
The Turkic cavalry has always been robbing food and men, but now it has become like a turtle in a urn.
He knew clearly in his heart that after fifteen days, there would be no food in the army and he would have to fight with his troops.
Of course, he would not let the Tang Dynasty be defeated so easily, and sent people to rob everywhere. However, the people on the border knew that the war was tense now, so they had already fled into the mountains and hid, and their raids in the grass valleys had little effect.
Class teacher, although it sounds nice to say it, it means the same thing as running away in embarrassment, and he knows that at that time, whether Tang Chao will be able to walk safely is still a question.
The Tang Dynasty had been recharging its strength for so long, and it would be a huge disaster to set up an ambush on the road it must pass.
It was for the above reasons that Xu Liesheng suppressed his intention to kill the Tang Dynasty immediately under his tent and allowed him to leave safely. However, he immediately received information that Princess Yelu left without saying goodbye and headed towards the direction of the Tang Dynasty.
When Xu Liesheng heard this, his gloomy face suddenly showed a smile, and he ordered a confidant beside him: "Go, take thirty pearls and give them to the Tang Dynasty Marshal, and say that they are my Xu Liesheng." A gift for him and the princess to get married, but remember, only one person in the Tang Dynasty can know this,"
"Yes, Commander," the soldier immediately left quickly.
Xu Liesheng watched the soldiers walk out, and the smile on his face had not faded. He smiled: "Princess, princess, I am worried that I can't find an excuse to retreat. By doing this, you have done me a big favor. ,"
But she said that Princess Yelu Jinzhi liked Tang Chao and couldn't help herself. She followed him on horseback, wanting to catch up with him and say a few words of affection. Who would have thought that the horse under Tang Chao's seat was a fire and electricity horse, walking like the wind, and it only took an instant. Suddenly, he was left behind, and even his shadow disappeared.
Princess Yelu was so filled with hatred that she urged her horse desperately, with tears falling from her eyes. She knew that the Turks and the Tang Dynasty were already enemies after this battle, and if they didn't seize the time, it might be too late.
Women in the Western Regions have unrestrained personalities and do whatever they like without any scruples. Unlike privet or Han women, who are very strict in their upbringing. At that time, the society in the Turkic area was open, and wild affairs between men and women were commonplace, like this If you fall in love with the Tang Dynasty, you will chase him out in public. In Turks, it is nothing.
Although she is a Turkic princess and has a noble status, she still has the character of a Turkic woman who dares to love and hate.
Seeing that it was dark at night, she couldn't help but become anxious.
In fact, even if she was captured by the Tang Dynasty, she was treated politely and was not treated as a prisoner, not to mention the noble treatment she received in Guyuan. But now she is alone, the sky is getting dark, and she can't see everything. Among the yellow sand, although the sunset is gorgeous, it still carries the meaning of infinite loneliness.
At this time, a group of people rushed out of the yellow sand. The leader was a tall man in his forties, who had his braids coiled on his head one by one, revealing his brass-like skin. Holding a big sword in his hand, he rides a bareback horse, which is extremely fierce. There are more than ten horsemen behind him dressed in the same clothes as him. Some of them have bloody human heads on their horses, obviously they have just experienced a fierce fight.
Even though Princess Yelu Jinzhi was good at martial arts and had seen battlefield scenes, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, as if she had seen a gloomy evil ghost in hell.
"Haha,,,,,,," these people also immediately saw Princess Yelu Jinzhi, with greedy light in their eyes. Apparently, it had been a long time since they had seen such a beautiful lady.
Indeed, Princess Yelu has fair and tender skin, and she is a martial arts practitioner. She is originally beautiful, and with a kind of heroic spirit, she looks extraordinarily beautiful. It is no wonder that these barbarians are obsessed with her after seeing her.
"You, what do you want to do,"
I don’t know why, facing the surrounding of more than a dozen riders, Princess Yelu, like all the weak girls in the world, became a little panicked and frightened. But fortunately, she still had two lancets and two swords in her hands. He waved and fired two swords in the air, which immediately startled a cavalryman who wanted to step forward.
These people are none other than a part of Tuyuhun, another powerful tribe in the Western Regions. They live in the Altai Mountains and live next to the Khitan people. Their folk customs are fierce and they mostly make a living by hunting animals. They also engage in animal husbandry and interact with surrounding ethnic groups from time to time. When a war breaks out, the nation is in a period of rising power and is extremely aggressive.
In the past, it was also a tribe that Gao Xianzhi often suffered from headaches.
"We don't do anything, we just want to make you happy, haha," the leader was overjoyed to see such a hot woman and laughed proudly.
With this smile, more than ten riders behind him also laughed together and got closer.
"Looking for death," suddenly, a man from the Tuyuhun tribe suddenly fell off his horse, his head was missing, and his blood dyed a large area of yellow sand red.
There was a crash, and the faces of all the people surrounding her changed color. They obviously could not have imagined that such a woman could be so ruthless and could actually kill her own clansmen with a single blow.
The man who was killed was called Tu Gu, and he was the youngest son of Chang Qin, the chief of Tuyuhun. He was smart, charming, and proficient in many languages. Although he was less than thirty years old, he already had a lot of female slaves in the family, the most lustful ones. When I saw Princess Yelu's beauty for the first time, I immediately couldn't control myself. I immediately reached out and wanted to touch Princess Yelu's thigh.
This was his specialty, and he was used to being frivolous. Although Princess Yesu held a knife in her hand, in his opinion, it was just a bamboo knife in the hand of a child and could not hurt him at all.
He had been learning martial arts since he was a child, and he was very talented and had muscles as strong as iron. However, he paid no attention to Princess Yesu. He was caught off guard and was killed by Princess Yesu, who was good at martial arts.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and the leading man shouted: "Come on, capture this girl alive and hand her over to the chief for punishment."
With this shout, a dozen knives and a dozen horses all greeted Princess Yesu and immediately surrounded her in Gai Xin.
Fortunately, Princess Yesu was really outstanding in martial arts. Surrounded by more than ten people, she held the door tightly and her horse was one of the best in a hundred, so she was able to support her for a while longer.
After Tang Chao returned to his tent, he told everyone that he had tamed Xu Liesheng. Everyone was excited and praised Tang Chao's clever plan. Compared with patience, it is not like this to defeat the enemy so quickly.
Tang Chao said a few words of humility, rode a fire horse alone, and came towards the Xu Liesheng military camp. A master like him had eyes for all directions and ears for all directions. When he left the military camp, he was spotted by Princess Yesu, so everything was in danger. in your own feelings.
However, because I was worried about Xu Liesheng's conspiracy, I naturally didn't care about her, so I left the Turkic military camp quickly. So although I found out, I pretended not to know. I left quickly because I wanted to get rid of this woman. After all, I had already With Li Lian Wenjiang, Qin'er and Princess Xinling, I don't want to be burdened with matters between men and women.
However, since the other party is a Turkic princess with such a high status, she cannot hurt her face, so she sent a soldier out to observe and report back quickly if there is any situation. Unexpectedly, she got Princess Yesu being killed by Tuyuhun. When you are surrounded by people, you know that you can handle it yourself, so you go out alone.
The most important reason for this, of course, is that I don’t want other people to know about this, lest someone say bad things about me in front of Li Longji, and it will be difficult to deal with it.
A hundred steps away, there were fierce shouts of killing, and three or four people had been injured. Princess Yesu was also injured on her hand, but she was still struggling hard while waving her two swords, and she did not appear to be discouraged at all.
Women in the Northern Kingdom have a kind of bloody nature. The more dangerous they are, the more desperate they are. This is a woman like her.
"Drive," Tang Chao shouted softly when he saw this scene. The fire and electricity horse galloped out. At a magical speed, it arrived in front of this group of people almost instantly. With a wave of his arm, these more than ten martial arts None of the good-looking Tuyuhun people could move. There were a few clicks, and more than ten single knives fell to the ground. They were all stunned, sitting on their horses, and they even forgot to move.
Too scary.
Who can defeat more than a dozen defending warriors in an instant and render them unable to fight back?
They seemed to have seen a legend and could no longer believe their eyes, but everything happened clearly.
"Get lost," Tang Chao shouted softly, as if a thunderbolt hit everyone's heart.
As soon as these ten people woke up, they immediately ran away.
"Brother, thank you," Princess Yesu suddenly ran over and threw herself into her arms. When she hugged Tang Chao, tears fell from her eyes. She didn't know whether it was excitement or gratitude, but one thing was true, because she Hug her very tightly.
Tang Chao sighed and hugged her tightly, feeling a kind of charming and deadly intoxication.
