Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 659 Pity
Beside the bonfire, Liang Xiao sat cross-legged, Ajina and Doros sat on both sides.While drinking, they cut pieces of meat from the golden-roasted sheep and put them in their mouths, chewing slowly.

The fine-wool sheep unique to the Yili River Valley not only has fine wool, but also has very tender meat.The shepherds are usually reluctant to eat. Liang Xiao and others came, and they slaughtered thousands of them at once. Welcome the allied warriors here.

Doros ate so much that his mouth was dripping with grease, and even his fingers were covered with grease.While licking his fingers, he praised: "General, I now find that your most powerful thing is not your bow and arrow, but your words. You can defend against arrows, but you can't defend against words."

Azhena smiled, picked up a piece of bread, wiped off the grease on the knife, stuffed the bread into his mouth, and took a big bite. "His words are indeed sharp, but what is even sharper is his vision. Now we can advance or retreat, but Lie Jiaomi is forced to a dead end."

"Lie Jiaomi?" Doros suddenly became sober. "By the way, I was about to ask you about this, why didn't you kill Lie Jiaomi?"

Liang Xiao glanced at Doros and laughed: "Time is too short and there is not enough troops. I can't kill him, so I have to pretend to be a good person and let him live first. Dalu, you have rich experience, analyze it, then , What kind of arrangements will King Youxian and Lie Jiaomi have, and how should we deal with it?"

Azhena chewed the bread and thought for a while. "The Wusun people have been scattered. In less than ten days and a half months, Lie Jiaomi may not be able to recover. Only the Huns can go to battle. Even so, their strength is still superior, at least twice as large as ours. We It is not advisable to take the initiative to attack.”

"It's not suitable to attack twice?" Doros disagreed. "When we hunted Jiaomi, his army strength was more than twice that of ours. Besides, the longer we wait, the more his army strength will increase when Lie Jiaomi regains his strength?"

Ashina shook her head. "Then they have to have enough food. The hunter's men and horses were defeated, and most of the baggage he brought was lost. Now they have to rely on the Huns to support them. How can they recover so easily. The longer they wait, the more they will face. The more difficult it is. So... I think the next few days will be the most dangerous."

Doros suddenly realized, touched his head, and laughed.

Ah Zena looked at Liang Xiao. "Has the general thought of a countermeasure?"

Liang Xiao smiled wryly twice. "What Dalu said is very true, and I think so too. The Huns are coming, at most two days, and the battle is about to begin. The Cypriots have obtained the hunting equipment, and now they have no worries about food and clothing, and have no motivation to fight. We will let them Only by seeing the cruelty of the Huns can they arouse their desire to fight, but this cannot be achieved in two or three days."

"Then what should we do?" Ah Zena thought for a while, and rolled his eyes. "How about taking them all?"

Liang Xiao gave A She a surprised look, and couldn't help laughing. "It really surprised me that such words came out of Dalu's mouth."

Ashina also laughed.He waved his hand. "Just kidding, if I really want to rob them, I'm afraid their swords must be aimed at us before they are aimed at the Huns. However, these Cypriots are short-sighted, and they are satisfied with a little luggage from the Wusun people. Promising, no wonder they are regarded as two-legged sheep by Lie Jiaomi."

"They have little knowledge. Many people have never left this valley in their lives. It is a good thing and a bad thing. They hate the Wusun people because they have been oppressing them. The Huns seldom appear here. I have experienced the brutality of the Huns, so it takes time for them to see the face of the Huns. I think it will take a few days for them to know that the Huns are worse than the Wusun people. The key is how we can survive Recently."

"That's right, that's the problem, how do we get through these few days?"

Liang Xiao twisted his fingers. "Maybe, I should talk to King Youxian."

"Talk... talk?" Doros was stunned, holding a piece of meat, looked at Liang Xiao, and then at Ashina.Liang Xiao and Azhena exchanged knowing glances, but neither of them paid any attention to Doros.Doros scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, begging quickly. "Tell me, tell me, what do you want to talk about with King Youxian?"

Liang Xiao said angrily: "How to talk, of course talk with your tongue."

Doros stuck out his tongue, expressing his incomprehension.

Liang Xiao and A Shena laughed, joked with Doros for a while, and then discussed the advantages and disadvantages of both parties.Since lobbyists are going to be sent to disrupt King Youxian's action plan, they must hit the nail on the head, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve practical results.

The night before yesterday, Liang Xiao let the guards around him open their minds, gained a lot of inspiration, and tasted the sweetness. Now he is more willing to discuss with others, especially an experienced veteran like Ashena.He not only needs Ajina's understanding and cooperation, but also his wisdom.

The two were talking happily, but Doros was drowsy. At some point, he fell down and snored loudly.

After talking with Azhena in the middle of the night, Liang Xiao didn't sleep, so he got up to practice Daoyin as usual.

After several years of persistence, the Daoyin technique has been integrated into his blood. If he doesn't practice it for a day, he will feel uncomfortable all over his body, as if there is something lacking.No matter how much pressure there is, once he puts on his posture, he can put aside everything and enter the state of forgetting everything and me.

It was the only time that was entirely his own, and he cherished it dearly.

As he practiced again and again, the heat flow was like a tide, washing over his body again and again, washing away his exhaustion, and nourishing every inch of meridians and flesh and blood.His breathing became deeper and deeper, his eyes became clearer and clearer, his demeanor became more and more stable, and his whole person exuded a kind of confidence that made people worship.

The guards on duty looked at him from a distance, their eyes worshiped and they were full of confidence.

-

Chang'an, the champion Houfu.

Liu Ling was clothed and leaned over the table, drawing a silk map with his fingers, and finally landed at the location of the Yili River Valley, and did not leave for a long time.

On the map in front of her, the Yili River Valley was blank.Liang Yu also put on his clothes, walked over, looked at Liu Ling, a little puzzled. "My lord, what's the problem here?"

"I don't know." Liu Ling withdrew his finger and stroked the corner of his mouth. "I have a feeling your brother might be here by now."

"Here?" Liang Yu glanced at the map, and couldn't help chuckling: "Brother, did you entrust a dream to you?"

"Now that he has Princess Dawan by his side, he doesn't care about dreaming for me." Liu Ling curled his lips.

"Princess Dawan will follow him to the battlefield?" Liang Yu sat next to Liu Ling and helped her straighten her slipped coat. "Okay, you don't have to worry. It's no use worrying about thousands of miles away. It's better to wait for the good news with peace of mind."

Liu Ling stood up, got on the bed, and sat down with the quilt wrapped around him.Liang Yu went to bed and sat beside her, arching her with his shoulders. "Still thinking?"

"Well, I'm still a little worried." Liu Ling pondered for a moment, and then said: "How is the emperor's mood recently? Is there anything unusual?"

Liang Yu blushed slightly. "The Son of Heaven is very thoughtful, and I don't see any flaws. However, he often sighs, and he rarely mentions the war in the Western Regions. Several times, he gave up as soon as he opened his mouth, as if he was worried."

"What else can you worry about? It's nothing more than wanting your elder brother to win the Western Regions, but also fearing that your elder brother's tail will be too big to embarrass him."

"Brother...will you do this?"

"I don't know." Liu Ling shook his head and sighed softly: "Actually, I don't want to hear any news of a great victory. The cunning rabbit dies, the lackey cooks. The birds are gone, the good bow is hidden. Your brother is not a good man. The emperor is afraid of such a clumsy person, if it wasn't for the emergency situation in the Western Regions, how could the emperor let him out of Chang'an. Now that he has gone out, don't come back."

Liang Yu secretly looked at Liu Ling. "Brother, if you don't come back, what will you do?"

Liu Ling smiled lightly. "What else can I do, be my prisoner of wealth. Although thousands of miles apart, it's better than being a prisoner together. Zhuangzi said well, it's better to forget each other than to be in the rivers and lakes, and your brother and I are in the same situation."

Liang Yu sighed, put his hands on his legs, and put his chin on his knees. "Actually...they are all unborn heroes, but it's a pity that their ideas are too different, and I'm afraid they won't end well in the end. Lord, I'm actually as worried as you. I'm afraid that the battle will be unfavorable, but also that the battle will go too smoothly. Brother, return to Beijing That day, maybe the day they broke up."

Liu Ling turned his head. "You see it too?"

"I don't have any other skills, but I still have a little bit of ability to observe faces. The emperor is troubled, because he doesn't know how to deal with brother. Brother is useful as a soldier. It is a rare magic weapon, but for the emperor , He always feels powerless, always afraid of hurting himself, wants to use it but dare not use it, it is really tormenting."

"what are you thinking?"

"Me?" Liang Yu was stunned for a moment, then asked back: "If Lord Weng is in the position of the emperor, how should we deal with it?"

Liu Ling was slightly startled, rolled a glance at Liang Yu, and twitched the corners of his mouth. "I can see that someone's heart is moving, and their elbows are turning outward."

Liang Yu blushed, shoved Liu Ling embarrassingly, and said angrily: "Master, look at what you said, if I turn my elbows outward, can I forget the kindness of brother and you for rebuilding? Actually..." She He tilted his head and thought about it. "I pity him."

"Pity him?"

"Yes, think about it, there are so many women around him, why is there one who is thinking of him? Even the queen mother who is related by flesh and blood is just thinking of the wealth and status of the Tian family and the Wang family, often for some inexplicable things. He quarrels. It's like this in the palace, and it's similar outside the palace. Those ministers say it beautifully, but it's not for their own future?"

Liu Ling blinked. "Not exactly, at least your brother is not."

Liang Yu was silent.

"If it's just for the sake of wealth and honor, why do you need to go on an expedition to the Western Regions if you are a champion and live in a city of thousands of households?"

"Then what exactly is your brother thinking?"

Liu Ling turned his head and stared at Liang Yu, his eyes gradually became severe.Liang Yu felt guilty when she saw her, avoided her eyes, pursed his lips tightly, and remained silent.Liu Ling took a deep breath, let it out slowly, and suddenly laughed lightly. "The Son of Heaven is really good at tricking you. He not only turned against you, but also tested our intentions."

"Do not……"

Liu Ling raised his hand, stopped the panicked Liang Yu, and said with a smile, "Wen Ji, don't be nervous. Others can't understand you, but I can understand you. Facing the Son of Heaven, few people can stop his attack. You Being moved by him is really normal."

Liang Yu was very embarrassed. "My lord, you really...don't blame me?"

"What are you to blame? You are not the first person to be trapped by love, nor will you be the last." Liu Ling put his arm around Liang Yu's shoulder and shook it lightly. "Congratulations, sister. Finally, there is someone who can make you fall in love. In this way, I feel relieved."

Liang Yu was relieved. "What are you worried about?"

"Don't worry, since you belong, you won't be a threat to me anymore." Liu Ling giggled. "You think I don't know that you have thoughts about your elder brother, but it's just that it's hard to mention it due to the status of siblings. You are willing to accept this task because you want to help your elder brother."

Liang Yu's face turned red immediately, and he wanted to argue, but he didn't know how to say it.

"Actually, I also persuaded your elder brother to let him simply accept you as a concubine. He refused, for fear of wronging you."

"My lord, how can this work? We have the same surname. Same surname does not marry."

"Not married with the same surname?" Liu Ling wrinkled his nose. "Your elder brother takes his mother's surname. Who knows what his surname should be? Anyway, it's impossible to be named Liang. Why do you have the same surname. Do you not know it yourself, or do you think I don't know?"

"Uh——" Liang Yu was at a loss for words, and then covered his mouth and laughed again, squinting at Liu Ling, and said, "Master, have you really persuaded my elder brother?"

"Is there still a need to lie to you?" Liu Ling gave her a blank look, and then he felt good again, stretching out his hand to gently pinch the tip of Liang Yu's nose. "Okay, you actually suspect me. I need to lie to you? Even without you, your brother is not the only one around me. I can stop you, I can stop others, and I can stop Wanli Princess Dawan outside?"

Liang Yujiao smiled and begged for mercy repeatedly.The two laughed for a while, Liang Yu sighed. "Why men can have wives and concubines in groups, but we women can only marry one person. It's really unfair. I think men and women should be the same. Men are only allowed to marry one woman, and women are only allowed to marry one man. , one husband and one wife, just like the way of one yin and one yang.”

"Wait." Liu Ling suddenly thought of something, and stretched out his hand to signal Liang Yu not to speak.Liang Yu quickly closed his mouth and looked at Liu Ling.Liu Ling thought for a long time, and then said slowly: "I seem to have heard your elder brother say that there is a place like this, monogamy, men are not allowed to take concubines, just like women."

"Really, why haven't I heard brother say that?"

"Hee hee, of course you haven't heard of it." Liu Ling raised his eyebrows. "He was drunk and said it in a dream. When he woke up, I asked him again, but he presumed it was drunk. Now it seems that it's not just as simple as drunk."

Liang Yu's eyes also lit up. "Could it be... there really is such a world?"

Liu Ling rolled his eyes, smiled without saying a word, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

Thousands of miles away, Liang Xiao, who had just finished practicing the Daoyin technique, suddenly shivered.
