Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 222 Escape
King Hunxie opened the tent door, walked out of the big tent, and stood in the sun with his hands on his waist, smiling all over his face.

He looked into the distance, expecting the messenger from Guluhu to appear again.

King Xiutu captured a Han envoy named Zhang Qian and sent him to Shan Yuting, where he was rewarded by the military minister Shan Yu, who called him the most powerful right arm.This made King Hunxie very uncomfortable.He is also a master of the right side of the Xiongnu, and he asked himself that his credit was no worse than that of King Xiutu, and his strength was also stronger than that of King Xiutu. How could King Xiutu become a powerful right arm because of a Han Chinese envoy?
Originally, King Hunxie could only be sulking. Who made King Xiutu's grazing land closer to the Han Dynasty?When the envoys of the Han Dynasty went west, they must have first arrived at the pasture of King Xiutu.Only if King Xiutu missed it, would he have a chance.Such opportunities are so rare that he dare not count on them at all.

He didn't expect that the opportunity would come so soon, and it was discovered by his beloved youngest son, Gu Luhu.This made King Hunxie very excited.Having the opportunity to compete with King Xiutu came second, Guluhu's filial piety was the most gratifying thing for him.

Boy, it really embarrasses me.

King Hunxie waited for a long time, but he still hadn't seen the messenger, so he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.He ordered the army to set off, and sent another thousand elite cavalry to set off early to meet Guluhu.He ordered these elites to obey Gu Luhu's command after meeting Guluhu.

This order made his eldest son Udan very dissatisfied.Even for the entire tribe, a thousand elite cavalry is not a small number.Wu Dan fought with King Hunxie for more than ten years, and now he only has a thousand elite cavalry as his personal guards.Guluhu received such a reward just after he entered the battle, which shows that Lao Tzu is partial.

Wu Dan was depressed for a long time before receiving the latest news.This news made Wu Dan ecstatic, but made King Hunxie feel struck by lightning.

Gu Luhu was shot to death by the Han envoy.

King Hunxie was dumbfounded at that moment.He confirmed it again and again, still feeling incredible.Guluhu has 200 people, including [-] elite guards wearing iron armor. He himself is wearing a treasure armor from the Western Regions. How could he be shot to death?
If it is said that he was trampled to death by a horse, it is still possible.It's impossible to be shot to death.

What's more, there are only nine Han envoys.

Hunxie didn't believe it, so he handed over the army to Wu Dan, led a thousand elites, and chased Guluhu himself.He wanted to find out what was going on.If Guluhu is really dead, he will catch these hateful Han envoys and bury him for Guluhu.

The messenger said that those Han people were trapped on the hillside and could not escape at all.

King Hunxie hurried all the way.In the evening, he caught up with the thousand elites and received the latest news. This time, he almost fell off his horse.

The head of Guluhu was snatched by the Han people, leaving only one body.The Han left everything and went west.

Hunxie King Hao Tao cried for a while, wiped away his tears, and ordered the pursuit. No matter what, he must kill these hateful Han people and snatch Guluhu's head back.

Two thousand Xiongnu elite cavalry let go of their horseshoes and chased westward.

Liang Xiao reined in his mount and waved his hand, Li Shuyun rode the horse and ran towards the nearby hillside.

Liang Xiao turned over and jumped off the horse.The moment his toes hit the ground, he felt like his whole leg was about to break, and he sat down on the ground.The mount lowered its head, the corners of its mouth were covered with foam, and its limbs kept shaking.Seeing that the situation was not good, Liang Xiao put his hands on the ground and climbed a few steps.

With a bang, the mount fell to the ground, its abdomen unceasingly rose and fell, its limbs twitched, and tried hard to stand up again, but it couldn't stand up no matter what, and could only let out a mournful hiss.

This is the third horse that has died in the past two days.

After robbing Guluhu's head, Liang Xiao and others traveled day and night, rushing all the way, not daring to stop to rest.Behind them are not only more than 100 Hun knights chasing after them, but also [-] cavalry of King Hunxie.Since Gu Luhu is the beloved son of King Hunxie, it is impossible for King Hunxie to let him go lightly.Once he catches up, Liang Xiao has no chance of escaping.

He could only run at the fastest speed, faster than King Hunxie's messenger, and escaped from King Hunxie's pasture before his subordinates received the news.Only in this way can he have a chance to survive.

Compared with the looming Hun cavalry behind him, the invisible King Hunxie is more terrifying.Liang Xiao was overwhelmed by this huge psychological burden, but he couldn't show it on his face.He also needs to encourage others in turn, constantly constructing a beautiful vision to motivate them to move forward.

Impulsive people are often impatient.Liang Xiao had a premonition of this point.Don't look at these guys with pride, but if they really encounter difficulties, it's okay for them to work hard, but it's a bit difficult for them to persevere.As long as this breath is vented, anything can happen.

They are not saints, but mortals with flesh and blood.

Liang Xiao knew this very well.

Li Shuyun cried out in the distance, waving his arms.Liang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.There is a family in front who can add a little food, and if you are lucky, you can even exchange a few horses.

"Let's go." Liang Xiao roared, standing up with the support of Han Jie.

"My lord, we have nothing to exchange." Guo Wenbin reminded.In order to travel lightly, they have thrown away all their belongings.Without those exquisite items as compensation, the Huns may be able to let them eat for free, but it is impossible to exchange horses for them.

Liang Xiao pondered for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "If you give, you have to give, if you don't, you have to give."

Everyone understood and exchanged glances with each other.At this moment, their eyes are like wolves.

With Tu Niu'er's help, Liang Xiao climbed onto the back of the moon with difficulty and galloped forward.Without his orders, Xie Guanglong and Pang Shuo urged their horses to get ahead, full of murderous intent.

Turning the hillside, they saw two tents.In front of the tent, three Hun men were driving the herd of horses together. Two Hun women were busy coming in and out. A half-grown child followed behind, half playing and half helping.

Seeing Xie Guanglong and Pang Shuo's ferocious backs, Liang Xiao suddenly hesitated.He winked at Guo Wenbin.Guo Wenbin hesitated, and said softly: "My lord..."

"Go." Liang Xiao couldn't help but say.

Guo Wenbin had no choice but to shake the reins and chase after Xie Guanglong.Liang Xiao reached out and took off the bow, and moved the quiver to the most suitable position.He didn't want to hurt these Huns, but he also knew that the situation was urgent at this moment, and he couldn't tolerate any kindness of women.

Seeing that Liang Xiao was getting ready, the officials didn't say a word, those who picked up their bows picked up their bows, and those who drew their swords drew their swords, and surrounded the tent.

The Huns immediately became nervous when they saw Liang Xiao and the others' aura was wrong.The woman and the child hid in the tent, two men stood in front of the tent, and a man drove up to meet him with a bow and arrow in his hand.

Guo Wenbin stopped his horse and shouted a few words.The Hun shook his head, not knowing what he was talking about.Xie Guanglong urged the horse and rushed over.The Huns did not show any weakness, shot the arrow in their hands, and rode their horses to the side.The arrow hit Xie Guanglong's face.Xie Guanglong snorted, fell off the horse, was stepped on by the horse again, and curled up in pain.

"Old Xie!" Pang Shuo was furious, and rushed over with his horse.The Huns shot another arrow, and Pang Shuo swung his sword with one hand to parry him. After catching up with the Huns, he cut off his head with a single blow from behind.

Liang Xiao sighed, hooked an arrow, and shot down a Hun with one arrow.Xu Yanshou and Li Dingguo drew their bows at the same time and shot down another Hun.

Liang Xiao came to the tent and glanced at the two Huns.The Huns knelt on the ground with fierce eyes.Liang Xiao ignored him, bent over and walked into the tent.A figure rushed over, accompanied by a childish scream.

"Boom!" Tu Niu'er kicked the child into the corner of the tent, and a bone dissolving knife fell to the ground.The child covered his chest, opened his mouth, and his face was pale.Tu Niu'er's kick was not light, he almost passed out of breath.A young woman rushed over, held the child in her arms, and glared at Tu Niu'er angrily.

Liang Xiao forcibly controlled his gaze, walked to the middle of the tent and sat down.

"We need food and some horses. I have nothing for you. If you are willing to help, I owe you a favor. If you are not willing, I will kill you."

Guo Wenbin translated it immediately.The young woman looked at them viciously and spat.Liang Xiao turned his head, glanced at her, then at the old woman, and narrowed his eyes.

The old woman gave a drink, stopped the young woman, and said a few words.The young woman stood up reluctantly, protected the child, and moved out along the side of the tent.The old woman got busy, found some dried meat that looked similar to wooden boards, and took out some cheese, and put them all in front of Liang Xiao and the others, then knelt in front of Liang Xiao and kowtowed repeatedly.

Liang Xiao nodded.

After a while, the young woman came in, holding a peeled sheep in one hand, and the child blushed, holding up a pail of milk vigorously.They stared at Liang Xiao with hatred in their eyes.

Liang Xiao ignored them, and fiddled with the path he found from Gu Luhu's body, scraping the black mud from his nails.

After a short time, the mutton was roasted and the milk was hot. Liang Xiao and the others had a hearty meal and took some away.The horses had already been changed, and the three Hun men seemed to be preparing to go out. They had prepared seven horses in total, but Liang Xiao snatched them all away.

Under the hateful eyes of the Huns, Liang Xiao got up and walked out of the tent.He had stepped out of the tent with one foot, and stopped again.He glanced back at the chicken-skinned and white-haired Huns old woman, thought for a while, and walked back.He picked up his dagger, carved his name on it with a path, and then handed the dagger to the old woman with both hands.

"Old man, the situation is urgent, I have to do this. I owe you a favor today, and I will definitely pay you back in the future. You keep this knife. If you have the opportunity to go to Chang'an, take this knife to Maoling Liang's house and return it to you today." Ten times the loss."

After listening to Guo Wenbin's translation, the old woman took the dagger and said a few words.Guo Wenbin said: "She said that she will definitely go in the future, and I hope your lord will have a safe journey."

Liang Xiao cupped his hands and bowed again, got up and left, and the group quickly disappeared into the night.
