Long Xiao wipes Qingfeng

When Zhong Shuo's injury was almost healed, Jiang Xi also arrived in a hurry. After Xiao Jiu and Jiang Xi briefly talked about the past, they urged Zhong Shuo to appoint Jiang Xi as a military adviser, and handed over logistics and other matters to cousin Jiang Xi.

Poor Jiang Xi didn't get the mercy of his cousin after running around for several days, but was driven to the shelves, and he was dizzy when he read the military brochures every day.

Zhong Shuo promoted several people who were usually optimistic about him in the army, and Zhang Canjun also took his place, so he can be called a general.After everything was ready, Zhong Shuo decided to make a plan as soon as possible, so as to be caught off guard before the next invasion of Hu Jun.

The desert area is vast, and there are few barbarians. The soldiers, horses, food, grass and water are not enough to enter it rashly. Moreover, it is still winter, and the desert has snowed.

Zhong Shuo carefully read the news sent back by the scouts in front, and thought about the stretch of sand dunes that he had been watching for several days in the sand table.

He is not good at fighting in the desert, and he needs to be more cautious in order to win.The sand dunes are closer to Linye, and the road is easy to walk. It is easy to find experienced veterans. There seems to be a stone forest under the sand dunes. By the way, Hu Jun's advantage is not so obvious.

When Xiao Jiu accompanied Zhong Shuo in the military camp to heal his wounds, he felt that being idle was idle, so he found someone who could speak Hu, personally tortured and interrogated the prisoners, and roughly asked where the Qianghu army was stationed. The reports from the scouts were almost the same, so Zhong Shuo set up a trick to lure the enemy, intending to consume Qiang Hu's troops as soon as possible.

Riskier, but the fastest way.

That night, Zhong Shuo ordered a small group of light knights to go to Qianghu's camp. Only he could handle this matter, and he had to be the vanguard.

Xiao Jiu helped him wear Baipi, touched the black stone embedded in the hilt of the sword, and said: "Remember to put yourself first, don't take risks, I will wait for your return."

Zhong Shuo tightened the cloak for him, and said: "I have left a lot of available people in the camp, and tied ropes around them. You should always be alert and guard against sneak attacks. If something happens, send the signal in time, and I will rush to the camp as soon as possible. return."

Xiao Jiu said: "Okay, you don't have to worry about me, go quickly, go early and return early."

Zhong Shuo nodded, got on his horse, waved his hand, and the group of people quietly disappeared into the night, with only the sound of hooves kicking and trampling.

Xiao Jiu looked at Zhong Shuo's back being covered by other soldiers, thinking of peace in his heart.

Zhong Shuo acted cautiously and deliberately did not wrap cloth on the horse's hooves, so that the barbarians could hear his hoofbeats and determine his position.

A group of people marched forward in the severe desert night, and arrived at the barracks of the barbarians in the middle of the night. Zhong Shuo raised his arm by the faint light and aimed his sleeve arrow at a soldier who was patrolling the night outside, silently, One hit kill.

The movement of the soldier falling was too great, and the people beside him noticed it in time. After Zhong Shuo confirmed that he saw his figure, he led the people to run around outside the barracks, giving the barbarians enough time to get ready, and then He killed a lot of soldiers, and didn't run away until Hu Jun's army gathered and chased them.

Zhong Shuo slowed down slightly, and fought with their vanguard for a while. When the sky was light, Zhong Shuo pretended to be defeated, and followed the veterans who had scouted the road in advance and knew the terrain well, and rushed towards the sand dunes, throwing away their helmets and armor along the way. It was as if he was defeated and surrendered and was dying.

Hu Jun behind him didn't notice anything wrong, holding his breath, the more eye-catching Zhong Shuo who rushed forward kept shooting arrows, Zhong Shuo dodged on his horse, his body gradually got some scars, and his face was also scratched by the arrows Along the way, soldiers fell off their horses from time to time, or their horses were shot and overturned by arrows, and only half of the original people remained.Hu Li was full of power, and he clung to Zhong Shuo's back tightly, believing that Zhong Shuo had no foreign aid, and wanted to chase him until he was exhausted.

Zhong Shuo gritted his teeth, and randomly pulled out an arrow that missed his arm and threw it away. The stone forest in front of him was already visible, and he continued to run for half a cup of tea. Suddenly, Zhong Shuo turned his horse's head and disappeared around the stone forest. Among the sand dunes, when I looked closer at the open place, there were densely packed soldiers and horses.

The person who took the lead in chasing Zhong Shuo was a young man who looked a bit young. The man was startled and realized that he had been tricked, but the two armies were already very close, and it was too late to turn around at this time, so he had to bite the bullet.

Hu Jun chased in the middle of the night, and his physical strength was a lot weaker. Naturally, it was more difficult to fight against the Changhua soldiers who had been dormant all night.

It was already dawn and it was getting a little warmer. After Zhong Shuo led his people into the team in the sand dunes, he quickly tore a piece of cloth to bind the bleeding wound on his arm. He left a lot of wounds from the battle in the north, and now the scars are piled on top of each other. He thought he could not explain it to Xiao Jiu when he went back, so he simply took off the armor on his arm. Holding the sword in one hand, he charged at the young man who was obviously the leader in the battle circle.

That man had a violent personality, and he cut off limbs cruelly, but he didn't give him any pleasure. Zhong Shuo approached him from one side, and shot an arrow, but he blocked it in time. Looking at each other, they both saw killing intent in each other's eyes.

Zhong Shuo drove his horse and ran forward, killing many Hu Bing with his sword along the way, until there was a "clang" sound, and the sword intersected with the man. Zhong Shuo ran away all the way, using a lot of strength. Don't take advantage of it, the more you fight, the more ruthless you will be.

On the barren desert, Zhong Shuo slashed at the man with his sword on his horse, but the man failed to catch his sword, was knocked off his horse, and died under the hooves of the horse in an instant.

Hu Bing had already shown signs of decline, Zhong Shuo shouted: "Surround and shoot arrows!"

The originally chaotic team gradually became orderly. Songzhu surrounded the battle circle and was about to shoot arrows. A petite Hu Bing in the distance, regardless of the overall situation, ran towards Zhong Shuo like crazy after Zhong Shuo knocked the man off his horse with a sword.

Zhong Shuo was directing Shochiku to close the gap with his back to him, and it was too late when he turned his head, so he had to forcefully turn his body to let the blade protrude from his shoulder, and the blood gushed out in an instant. Shouting for his life.

It turned out that he had killed her husband.

Zhong Shuo slid down the steep sand dunes beside him, bleeding all the way.

When he knocked his head on the stone, he still had time to think that this time, he might really not be able to explain to Xiao Jiu.

At dusk, Lin Ye's soldiers came back from a great victory, Xiao Jiu had already received the news, removed his horse rope and waited at the gate of the camp, but he didn't wait for Zhong Shuo, but he got a news that his life and death were uncertain.

Song Zhu jumped off the horse far away, knelt at his feet and choked up, saying: "Your Highness, forgive me, I failed to bring you back son, son was injured by a Qiang bearded woman, and he rolled down the sand dune in the chaos. We followed the blood to find the son. We walked all the way, but suddenly stopped, the stone forest is complicated, we left someone to look for the young master there, so we came back to report to His Highness." The soldiers really did their best, Songzhu found it exhausted but failed, and refused to leave desperately, It was only after being persuaded by Zhang Canjun that he came back to tell Xiao Jiu first, and let him take charge of the overall situation so that the army would not be unstable.

Xiao Jiu's ears were buzzing, he pinched himself hard, and asked Shochiku, "What does it mean that the blood is broken?"

Songzhu said: "My subordinates don't know, but they are indeed broken in the middle, as if they disappeared suddenly."

Xiao Jiu said to Zhang Canjun who was standing next to him: "All the soldiers who came back with you are watching, and no one is allowed to reveal half a word about it. Anyone who violates the law will be punished and will definitely keep this matter secret. In addition, a tent Give out a jar of wine, and say that the admiral celebrates his achievements and rewards the soldiers, and do it quickly!" Zhang Canjun led the order and left.

Xiao Jiu ignored Songzhu, turned around and returned to the tent, washed his makeup, removed the hairpin and other things on his head, took all the medicines and clothes he could think of in a short time, and went to the stable to take a horse at random. , came out and said to Songzhu: "Take me to find him."

Songzhu insisted: "Young master's life and death are unknown, please Your Highness take charge of the overall situation."

Xiao Jiu glanced at him, went to the camp and dragged Jiang Xi out, and said to Songzhu, "If you are in charge of the overall situation, look for him, and take me to Zhong Shuo."

After Jiang Yanzhao went back, he didn't tell anyone about Xiao Jiu and Zhong Shuo, so Jiang Xi looked at Xiao Jiu with a messed up face in shock, and quickly stood beside him to block his face from being seen by others. After hearing the news of Zhong Shuo's disappearance, he tentatively said: "General Zhong is auspicious, and he is sure to be fine. Please be safe, Your Highness, and go to the tent and wait for them to find him."

Xiao Jiu vaguely listened to his words, and gave Jiang Xi his own seal together with the admiral's seal that Zhong Shuo had placed on him, and quickly threatened, "Stop testing me, I'll leave it to you, you can figure it out yourself " After speaking, they pulled up Songzhu, and the two got on the horse one after the other, and Songzhu led Xiao Jiu to ride the horse towards the sand dunes.

The sand dunes chosen by Zhong Shuo are actually very large, and Songzhu left soldiers to clean up the battlefield to look for Zhong Shuo. By then they had cleaned up the body, but Zhong Shuo's whereabouts were still unknown.

Songzhu took Xiao Jiu to the bloodstain left by Zhong Shuo, explaining to the remaining soldiers that he was brought by the military adviser and could help find Zhong Shuo.

When he arrived at the place where the blood was broken, Xiao Jiu carefully looked at the sand traces there, stepped on a few times hard, and found that there was some hard feeling under the sand, he took out a dagger, dug the sand there, and there was a piece Stone.

Xiao Jiu glanced at Songzhu, and the two dug together the sand, and found a fragment of Zhong Shuo's clothes under the huge rock.

Xiao Jiu picked it up and looked at it, stopped Songzhu who was about to call someone, lifted the piece of fabric by himself, and said, "Look at this piece of fabric, the edges are neat, it was torn by Zhong Shuo himself."

Songzhu didn't understand for a while, Xiao Jiu groped along the stone and found a hole in a shaded place, which just allowed a grown man to pass through.

Xiao Jiu said: "You cover this rock with sand, find a few people to guard nearby, and go back to the barracks first, I will look for him."
