Mythical big man, champion soldier saint

Chapter 156 He Came
The sun will set.

Coming out of the border, Zhang Jun personally led the troops and marched northwestward.

One is to take a look along the way to rest assured.

On the other hand, his heart was also full of emotions, and he really wanted to see the champion of the big man again at this moment.

Zhang Jun didn't despise Huo Qubing before, but because of his limited vision, he really felt that Huo Qubing's sending out three hundred soldiers was a rash move.

He has been in the border for many years, he is used to being harassed by foreigners, and he feels the pain of the border, so Huo Qubing was able to break through six camps of the Qiang people in one night, he was really happy, and his mood was extremely agitated.

The sky darkened quickly.

The queue marched in the dark, but fortunately the moon was hanging high, and the frontier army's familiarity with the road conditions did not delay the march.

Zhang Jun was interested in asking what Huo Qubing was going to do after he broke the camp.

In addition, Champion Hou's intentions for this trip to the west, to what extent can be considered as a stop, but also to ask in person.

Exit from the border and continue to advance, and you will reach Xining in the later generations in about [-] miles. If you continue to move forward, you will find the desert oasis in the West Sea (Qinghai Lake), which is also the largest water source nearby.

The various large and small tribes under the jurisdiction of Xianling Qiang surround this area and live by the water.

The ancient Qiang tribe that Huo Qubing removed was also one of the big tribes surrounding this area.

But at this moment, the ancient Qiang tribe was in ruins, and the remaining flames were still burning.

Under the moonlit night, several dark shadows appeared in the ruins.

A total of six people, each with their own momentum.

The two surrounded in the middle are the leaders, one is tall and strong, with a square face, thick eyebrows as thick and straight as a dagger, and there is a fierce murderous look when he frowns.

This person is one of the strongest tribes in the Western Qiang, and the leader of the Qiang Rong tribe, Qi Fuyu.

The other person next to him has an ordinary figure, but his arms are disproportionately slender, giving the impression that he has some kind of strange art, and he seems to be extremely flexible, even walking, he only needs to touch the ground with his feet, as if there is no weight.

This person is the leader of the Zhongfa Qiang tribe, another major tribe of the Western Qiang, Hu Guyan.

The other four were their followers, and they spread out to be responsible for guarding.

Both Qi Fuyu and Hu Guyan looked around while walking, watching very carefully.

They finally came to a location and crouched down to check.

After the ground was burned by the fire, it was covered with thick dust and black ash, and the air was still filled with heat.

But both of them stared at the ground with piercing eyes.

The position they were looking at was a bit weird, the dust on the ground was jumping up and down, the bumps were violent, and there was a sharp breath moving.

"Grandma Wu."

There is a special sense of friction in Qi Fuyu's voice, which is impressive.

Following the sound, an old woman with a wrinkled face and a gray robe was covered with strange textures that looked like dyes formed after crushing plants and trees.

She came out from the shadow of the burnt ruins of the ancient Qiang tribe, blinking her wrinkled eyelids, and, like Qi Fuyu and Huguyan, looked at the ground, whispering something inherited from the Qiang tribe. Ancient witchcraft spells.

The old woman reached out and brushed the ground above.

A gleam of light actually appeared on the ground, and it disappeared in a flash.

The brightness of the light at this moment made Hu Guyan and Qi Fuyu close their eyes subconsciously.

If there were Han soldiers here, seeing this bright light, they would definitely think of the process of Huo Qubing beheading Dianzhen last night.

"Sure enough..."

The old woman whispered in ancient Qiang language.

She opened the palm that was stroking the ground, revealing a bloodstain on the palm, and a sound like a knife blared across the void.

"What a fierce fighting spirit." Qi Fuyu narrowed his eyes.

The old woman said: "This is the place where Dianzhen's body fell to the ground after being killed with a single knife.

After his death, the body fell here, the saber energy that killed him never faded, the energy broke through his body, seeped into the surrounding ground and void, and remained.It's just a lingering aftertaste that I urged. "

"One day when the saber energy overflows, it can still cut Grandma Wu's hand. What is the level of heaven and man in the practice of the Han people?" Qi Fuyu frowned.

"The stage is not important, the artistic conception contained in this knife is more terrifying, full of the spirit of invincibility and invincibility. I was not sure which Han general was able to destroy my six Qiang strongholds overnight." The old woman said in a deep voice. .

"So Grandma Wu knows now?" Hu Guyan said.

"The central army of the Huns was defeated by a general of the Han people a month ago. Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the king's court fled to the north. All parties were shocked by the news."

"What Grandma Wu means is that the Han general who led the troops to defeat the Huns' royal court came to our Xiqiang?"

Hu Guyan and Qi Fuyu both showed shock, even more shocked than seeing the wisp of saber energy.

To them, being able to penetrate the Wang Tingzhong Army, which dominated the prairie, was a miraculous feat, and it surprised them far more than penetrating six Qiang villages overnight.

"It has been spread in the Han area for a long time, saying that the general who defeated the Xiongnu's central army was called Huo Qubing, and the Han people called him a divine general! Is he here?"

"I have received news that the emperor of the Han Dynasty married his imperial sister to him as his wife and spread the word to the world. He should be newly married not long ago, so why did he appear in Xiqiang?"

"If Dianzhen knew that it was him who came, he would never dare to be so presumptuous..."

"Is this saber energy intentionally left by the Han generals to warn us?"

The old woman said softly: "Let's go, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, the Han army has left the border, and it is not far from here."

"Let's go back and discuss something."

Before they left, they glanced at the location on the ground where the saber energy burst out, and quickly lost their traces.

After they left, two figures of a man and a woman reappeared on the two trees a little far away.

These two people are the former bronze mask girl, with enchanting temperament.

The other held a knife in one hand and covered his face with a black cloth.

"You're right. From what he means, he wants to strengthen the exchanges between the Western Regions and the Han territory, and open up the road between the Han and the Western Regions." The man in black said.

"Last night you thought he had too few troops to openly go to the Western Regions, what about now?" the woman's voice was soft and charming.

The man in black was silent for a while: "Maybe."

"No maybe, if you give him time, he will definitely be able to.

The lieutenant under his command, Zhao Puonu, disappeared after defeating the Huns.

I questioned the five directions with vertical and horizontal techniques, and I came to the conclusion that Huo Qubing asked him to lead his army to the northwest first. "

The woman in white also walked to the place where the wisp of saber aura was stirring: "Huo Qubing left this wisp of saber aura in Gu Qiang, and let some captives go back, and let them go back to spread the panic of Gu Qiang's expulsion overnight, luring all the departments of Xi Qiang to come and check it out. , aimed at dividing the Qiang people.

How do you feel about the power of this knife? "

"The strength of the Three Realms of Heaven and Man is amazing. But...it's not my opponent yet." The man in black said.

"Isn't it your opponent?"

The woman in white: "It's been more than two months since he broke into the realm of heaven and man. How long did it take you to go from the first realm of heaven and man to the fourth realm?"

"You seem to always talk to this Huo Qubing?"

"Not to him, but to state the facts."

The knife-wielder snorted lightly without arguing, and changed the subject, "I don't understand. You stared at the galloping troops of the Han army for a long time. What were you looking at?"

"I'm not looking at the Han army." The woman said lightly.

The knife holder thought for a while, and among the Han army's team, only the chariot surrounded in the middle was the most conspicuous, and his heart moved slightly: "Are you looking at the princess' chariot?
You want to lay hands on her? "

The woman shook her head slightly, thinking to herself: I have some relationship with her that you don't know.

She has what I don't have...and some of it should be mine!
"Huo Qubing wants to continue traveling to the northwest, it won't be so easy." The woman whispered.

……

In the morning of the next day, under the leadership of Zhang Jun, the frontier army approached the West Sea all the way after a night and half a day of rapid travel, during which they only rested for two hours.

Xihai is an inland lake formed by the collapse of faults between Datong Mountain, Riyue Mountain and Nanshan Mountain in the Qilian Mountains.

After a night of flying loess and sand, I suddenly came to this warm oasis, which makes people feel like a holy place on earth is close at hand.

The sun was slanting, Zhang Jun and others saw Huo Qubing standing on a high ground from a distance, calmly looking at the West Sea.

Behind him there was only a praetorian guard of 30 men.

Jin'an stood beside him, snorting boredly. Hearing the sound of carriages and horses approaching behind him, Jin'an turned his head first to look over.

"Xiguan prefect Zhang Jun, I have seen Lang Zhongling!"

Zhang Jun held a big ceremony and paid homage: "I was guarding the Xiguan. I have not made any achievements for many years. Only by worshiping the general's supernatural power can I be able to eradicate the ancient Qiang and other tribes. Zhang Jun, on behalf of the people in the border gate, is here to pay my respects."

The frontier soldiers behind Zhang Jun, under the leadership of Xu Jia, also performed the ceremony at the same time, with a solemn atmosphere.

Huo Qubing turned around, glanced at the crowd, and said slowly: "This trip, I wanted to go all the way to Shaming Mountain, Yangguan, and Yumen, and meet Roshna, who is well-known in the Western Regions, but now... stopped.

I will be leaving for Chang'an soon. "

Zhang Jun and others were taken aback, not knowing what happened in Chang'an, Huo Qubing wanted to stop the trip and rush back.

After Huo Qubing finished speaking, he came to the frame and said to Liu Qing, "We'll be leaving in a while, do you want to come down and see the West Sea?"

"Oh. Let's talk first, and I'll come down later." Liu Qing showed his head in the car, then shrank back.

"Prefect Zhang wants to ask me something?" Huo Qubing looked back at Zhang Jun.

"I really have something to ask for advice." Zhang Jun stepped forward quickly, Zhang Qian also moved closer, and Xu Jia on the other side also moved forward.

"If the prefect has something to say, please speak."

"I want to know why Huohou suddenly wanted to go back to Chang'an? Originally, when Huohou came to Xiguan this time, where did he plan to fight, and to what extent did he stop fighting?" Zhang Jun said respectfully.

The prefect of Xiguan is a great official of the frontiers. Zhang Jun saw that Huo Qubing had become more respectful than before. It was only because of the marching map and Huo Qubing's capable people that he could not sweep the front of the ancient Qiang tribes at night.

Huo Qubing: "When I came out this time, I first agreed to Liu Qing. I went to the northwest because I wanted to get more with one blow.

There were some plans before, but they didn't think too carefully. "

He said again: "I had already sent someone to inform Roshna from the Western Regions to meet me at Yangguan and Yumen."

"Roshna's status in the Western Regions is respected, and the Langzhong ordered her to come to see her. Isn't it a little impolite?"

This question was asked by Zhang Qian, and it was also a reminder.

He has been to the Western Regions and knows Roshna's status in the hearts of the Western Regions.

"A weak country has no diplomatic relations, how can there be respect for status?

In today's world situation, the Han and the Huns are fighting each other, and the Western Regions are nothing but the spoils of the winner.If Roshna can see the situation clearly, she must choose a side to rely on. I will send someone to invite her, and she will definitely come. "Huo Qubing said.

Zhang Jun already understood what Huo Qubing meant.

That's why he brought Liu Qing with him. Roshna is also a woman, so he brought Liu Qing to meet her as a princess.

In later generations this is called lady diplomacy.

Huo Qubing wanted to help Han open up the Western Regions, so he made arrangements early.

Zhang Jun said again: "Then why did Lang Zhongling suddenly want to return to Chang'an, but what happened to Chang'an?"
