Chapter 791 Drinking from the vast sea of horses
"Hey, are you having a meeting?" Zhao Changhe smiled and walked to Huangfu Qing's side to look at the map: "Are you the main force who found the vulture's fangs and are discussing how to fight?"
All the generals in the tent turned their heads, but the sitting temple shamans quickly prostrated themselves on the ground and kowtowed.
The figure carrying the god's head to the altar cast a huge psychological shadow on them.
Seeing their appearance, Huangfu Qing grinded his teeth even more, and his voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth: "It's freezing cold here. King Zhao is newly married, why don't you stay in bed for three more days?"
In fact, it is okay to say that the weather is cold and the ground is freezing. Although it is quite late in spring, as long as it does not rain, the men who practice martial arts cannot even feel the cold. Huangfu Qingtang Yujing is still a fire cultivator, even more so. okay. It's just that the newlyweds and the quilt were added to these words, and the sour smell seemed to corrode the handsome tent. It was so sour.
Everyone's heads tilted even further, and Huangfu Shaozong even wanted to laugh.
Since I was a child, I never thought that my hot-tempered sister would have such a moment. From this point of view alone, Huangfu Shaozong really wanted to meet his long-time friend Wuhou Tangbuqi, so that everyone could share their experiences from being beaten since childhood, and think about the sweetness after recalling the hardships.
Zhao Changhe said with a shy face: "I've calculated with my fingers that a war is about to start here, so I'm here to help the commander..."
"I, what kind of old man are you?" Huangfuqing said in a cool tone: "Are you the kind of old man who is opposite to other people's old wives? You are so old that you are losing your teeth and you are still married. I have never seen such a shameless person..."
“We are also getting married.” Zhao Changhe only used five words to sink the commander-in-chief.
Zhao Changhe quietly untied the hem of her armor, lifted up her cloak, held her waist and pulled it back. The commander subconsciously leaned on the table and looked back angrily: "You haven't said anything yet..."
“I am your husband-in-law.”
The military tent was instantly empty, except for the skin of a melon.
Zhao Changhe said: "Any time... Speaking of which, the old general is here, so we have to let the old general take charge."
Huangfu Qing hummed and said: "It's okay, Xiaohezi is here, at least it can provide emotional value to me... Hey, don't touch it!"
In fact, if you search in Beijing now, you may have heard about the secret history of King Zhao, which talks about the filth in the palace, the queen mother and the emperor serving together, etc... So there are too many secret histories of XX from various dynasties and generations, so no one knows the real story here. Are you serious? People in the world today may still be able to take it seriously. After all, everyone really knows...the more it spreads, the less likely it is that anyone will take it seriously.
Huangfu Qing pouted, lowered his head and continued to look at the picture: "I can't find the vulture hunting teeth... My spiritual perception is also very far away. If I don't sense it, it must be out of range. But Mobei is so big, even if I open my spiritual consciousness to scan , you have to pick a direction to sweep over. I gathered the generals to study with everyone which direction is the most likely, but the results are all rubbish, and there is no opinion at all. It feels like everyone wants to go back to the Holy Mountain to have a celebration banquet."
Huangfuqing couldn't laugh or cry: "Then you were pretty good at pretending a few days ago."
“What about now? Is there no military situation?”
Zhao Changhe said: "Indeed, it seems that my coming here is of no use? In terms of judgment in war, I am not as good as the commander-in-chief."
"You dare? You dare to hug Yue Hongling in front of so many people. What's wrong with hugging me?"
The stinky disciple should just wait and go slowly. I want to help you become the emperor, but I will use your man first. What’s wrong?
Huangfuqing's mood improved immediately, but his face was still tense and he said: "Let's talk business, why do you suddenly appear here? I feel that your injury is not healed and you no longer need to recuperate?"
The commander lost his nerve and the generals dispersed.
Zhao Changhe said: "Then if Xiaohezi can provide military information reference to the commander-in-chief, how will the commander-in-chief reward him?"
Driving away the generals, it was not because he could not show off his face. He clearly just wanted to be alone with his lover. Anyway, those **** can't help with the discussion, so what are you doing there?
How could Zhao Changhe not feel her little arrogance, so he smiled: "Then I'll let you go."
“But the handsome man’s heroic appearance is so alluring... You know, I was drooling every day during this march.”
Huangfu Qing said: "That's why I'm anxious! Having said that, I suddenly feel that it doesn't matter whether you come or not. In terms of the range of spiritual perception, you are not as good as me."
Zhao Changhe stopped talking.
“What should I do if someone takes private notes on unofficial history?”
Huangfu Qing didn't force him to answer this sentence. Anyway, the status of the Queen Mother was really not suitable for returning to Beijing to marry. It would be okay to marry in the army, and then the battle would be over. Tang Wanzhuang still wanted to take the lead?
No matter how soft the handsome man's soft armor is, it is still armor, and it always feels hard. Xiaohezi was stroking his lower abdomen, then moved down to his legs.
Zhao Changhe almost laughed out loud: "What happened?"
Huangfu's eyes flashed and he bit his lower lip: "If you really know, no matter how ridiculous you think, I will admit it. I haven't played with you in any ridiculous things... wait a minute,"
Zhao Changhe saw her standing next to the handsome desk and looking at the map. She was wearing a soft cloak and armor. She was so handsome that he felt itchy in his heart.
Actually, he was exhausted, but Huangfu Qing liked the way he hugged her and looked at the pictures together. It was so intimate and warm. Especially if he could really show up at the military tent when he was having the most headaches, he would be in a great mood, and he wished he could get tired of being with him.
You also say that others still get married when they are old-fashioned, but you are not old? When I heard about the wedding, the brilliance on my face seemed to overflow, and it was white and rosy, tsk.
"Who cares about that kind of unofficial history? There are secret histories of XX all over the world, and they exist in every dynasty and every generation. Who should take them seriously..."
Huangfu Qingqing said: "You are here to provide emotional value, not to make trouble for me! I am considering the military situation, so don't get in the way."
I really want to thank all the essay writers of the past generations.
"There is no trouble. We have won such a difficult battle. Now we are just wiping our tail. Where is the trouble? Do you really think that I can't fight without you?" Huangfuqing struggled a little, and said with a pinched neck: "Let go, Jun. What's going on in the tent?"
Seeing that there was no one around, he hugged the handsome man's waist from behind, hung his chin on her shoulder, and looked at the map on the table together: "They say I knew you were in trouble with just a few fingers, so of course I came to help. help."
Huangfuqing was stunned for a moment: "That's the truth, but how do you grasp their movements so clearly?"
"You use the identity of Zhuque, and you have to cover your head anyway... It's enough if you can explain the past. Anyone who dares to publicize that Zhuque belongs to the Queen Mother will be beaten."
“Because the military situation was tense a few days ago, who dares to mess around...”
"Because they are five or six hundred miles away from us...Due to our seven-day ultimatum, they are on extremely tight alert at this time. We can go slowly. On the seventh day, they think that we are all on the Holy Mountain. Meetings are the time when we are most lazy. At that time, we suddenly appear and a battle can be decided."
Huangfu Qing's face seemed to be about to burst with tears: "I want to put on makeup before Tang Wan."
Hum.
Zhao Changhe smiled and said: "It's normal. I thought it was over. Who knew we were going to fight again? We didn't even get a good night's sleep... What we have to do is to win the battle quickly. If it continues to be delayed, everyone will not want to fight."
That's true... Huangfu Qing's face was rosy and he still looked intently: "The identity of the Queen Mother..."
Huangfu frowned and looked at the swaying tent intently: "When will it be completed?"
"...It's shameful to be shameless." The Marshal's eyes drifted around unconsciously, and he caught a glimpse of his younger brother who was snickering. He jumped to his feet and said angrily: "It's useless to ask you to come up with ideas! Let's drink tea and crack melon seeds, and compete with the capital. The old man is still skilled! Get out of here, I want to discuss military affairs with King Zhao secretly!"
“Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...”
The commander was lying on his desk, his slender hands still clenched into fists, his armor still on, and his cloak like fire. The lower part was quietly pulled down to the crook of the legs, and the enemy troops advanced into the hills.
Huangfu looked at the tent nervously. He always felt that this guy had already planned such a scenario by letting him be the head coach. It was really too shameful. But the big witch is a little excited in her heart. She really doesn't like men who follow the rules that much...
"You are really not afraid...of being intruded and looked at..." The handsome man faced the impact with charming eyes, biting his fingers and grumbling.
“Don’t worry, there’s nothing else you can do. It can be done by solidifying and isolating the surrounding air so that no one can get close to the tent...and your and my voices won’t actually spread out.”
Suppressed groans finally sounded in the military tent, and as expected, no one outside the tent could hear them.
Huangfu Shaozong and others gathered in the center of the camp to eat. They were all discussing in low voices how to find the Vulture Tribe. From time to time, they turned their heads to look in the direction of the commander's tent. They were all thinking that this matter was very difficult. I'm afraid that the commander and King Zhao would We can't achieve anything even if we discuss it secretly. You see, it's been so long and you haven't even eaten...
No one dared to think that such a majestic and murderous Master Suzaku would be willing to do such a thing in a military tent...
Half an hour later, the commander stepped out of the tent with his armor neatly in order and a heroic appearance: "Have you finished eating? Get ready to go to war."
Huangfu Shaozong was dumbfounded: "Commander, have you eaten?"
"King Zhao has brought dry food and has eaten enough." Huangfu Qing said seriously: "The location of the Vulture Department has been determined through many deductions between King Zhao and me. We will assemble the army and set off."
"where?"
“North, the vast sea.”
…
Hanhai, like Erhai in Miao territory, is said to be a sea, but is actually a large lake. It was called the North Sea earlier and is now called Lake Baikal. It is a large freshwater lake large enough for tribes to thrive.
It's just that the climate is very cold, so there are very few tribes that can really stay here. The surrounding land is vast and sparsely populated, and there is almost no human habitation.
At this moment, in the southern part of Hanhai, the Vulture Tribe is stationed in a bay of the lake. The strong lake wind is blowing, and many old and weak women and children of the tribe are shivering and hiding in the leaky tents to warm themselves up by the fire.
Let alone the old and the weak, many elites in their prime are unable to withstand it.
They are different from the well-supplied Han army. They temporarily run away from the battlefield and temporarily return to the tribe to organize a large-scale retreat. They cannot carry many things. Just like Batu, who was driven away by Timur, huddled in the desert, almost all of them would have died if Sanniang hadn't contacted Ying Wu for support. They were better than Batu. At least they evacuated on their own initiative, but their success was limited. At least they didn't have time to bring cattle and sheep, and they were very short of resources.
But everyone also knows that the Han army will not be here for long and will definitely have to return to the court. Once they left, other tribes suffered heavy casualties in this battle. This huge grassland became the world of the Vulture Tribe, which they had prepared for.
At that time, it is completely foreseeable that they will sweep southward and establish a new Vulture King's Court.
This is the rise of carrion vultures pecking at the corpse of the Golden Tent.
In fact, there are several options for where the vultures can hide. The reason why I chose Hanhai is because the vulture hunting teeth can be sure that Timur will hide in Hanhai.
There should be a secret place under the sea where Timur rose to prominence in his early years. He must find it and kill him before Timur recovers from his injuries. Otherwise, if Timur recovers from his injuries, he will be the first to be unlucky.
It’s a pity that the vast sea is so big that it is really difficult to find a secret place. The Vultures had to guard against the Han army and search for the secret place, but they couldn't find it in a short time.
Then just look for it slowly and wait until the Han army returns... Zhao Changhe's man said that all the tribes should go to the holy mountain to worship within seven days... Not to mention that the distant tribes would not be able to make it in time. Isn't this order a bit overwhelming? After all, conquerors are qualified to say things that make things difficult for others. For Vulture Hunter Ya, this time means a node - after this pilgrimage, the main force of the Han army must withdraw, and it is impossible for all of them to eat sand in Mobei for a long time.
The most left behind would be a light cavalry force of several thousand people, supporting converts like Batu to establish one or more vassal states, asking them to kill the tribes that "dared not to come to worship", and let each tribe on the grassland spend another round of conquests on their own. From now on, it will not be able to regain its strength for a hundred years. It is the Middle-earth Dynasty that can achieve the greatest strategic significance.
So the most dangerous thing is actually the few days before the pilgrimage. After getting over it, the only opponents we will face are the people in Batu...
The vultures of their own tribe did not dare to go near the direction of the holy mountain. They only patrolled the airspace within a few hundred miles of their own. Six or seven days passed, and there was no movement.
Mobei is so big, and it doesn't have such clear goals as the Holy Mountain and the Royal Court. If the other party wants to find me, they really don't know how to find it. Even thinking about it, there is nothing they can do.
On the seventh day, the originally nervous patrols, including Vulture Xingya himself, breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Zhao Changhe, Huangfuqing and his gang could only host their audience ceremony on the holy mountain. How could they suddenly come to this barren sea.
All the patrolling scouts have come back to warm themselves by the fire. Who can bear the cold?
“I’ve said it a long time ago, Zhao Changhe is not a god, and their true strength is actually not as good as Changshengtian’s... The lucky chance they succeeded this time was actually the result of Changshengtian’s injury. They just missed the mark, they are not heroes!”
"That's right...actually, they themselves are probably injured at this time. If you have the ability, come and see if grandpa doesn't chop them all up."
"How is it possible? I said it a few days ago. There is no need to be nervous and alert. If it were you and me who broke the Holy Mountain, we would have rewarded the three armies with money and women. We were just playing with the devout female slaves who serve the gods on the Holy Mountain. It’s full, it’s enough to play for seven days and seven nights, who wants to come out for a drink?”
“What you said is so disrespectful to Changshengtian…”
"You're dead, why don't you give me a shit. Those female shamans have rough skin and are not interesting. When we control the grasslands again and break through the customs, the women in the Central Plains will be able to have fine skin and tender flesh... What do you say, sweat? right!"
Vulture Hunting Tooth was drinking wine. Although he did not participate in the bragging of his subordinates, he still had a smile on his face.
He thought so too.
As long as you find Timur and get his Golden Wolf Technique from him, you can also rush into the imperial realm, and you can also try to replace Changshengtian.
As for people like Zhao Changhe and Zhuque Xuanwu, a discerning person will know at a glance that they cannot stay in the secular world for a long time. Sooner or later, they will do what gods should do, such as the heaven. How was the world like at that time?
In the midst of the commotion, a scout stumbled out: "Great Khan, Great Khan! Enemy attack, enemy..."
"Whoosh!" A long arrow flew from nowhere and pinned the scout who reported the news to the tent.
Everyone's expression changed, Vulture Hunting Tooth suddenly stood up, and they heard the thunderous sound of horse hooves approaching instantly. The screams of their own men and horses could be heard outside, and the firelight reflected the sky red.
“What’s going on!” Vulture Hunter Tooth rushed out with a spear, and saw Huangfu’s love horse stepping onto the tent and leading the crowd to charge into the formation.
“Cang!” Vulture Xingya held the spear and held it up for a moment. He was driven back more than ten steps by the terrifying impact, and barely managed to stand still after he bumped into the subordinate behind him.
Zhao Changhe's big face appeared in front of him: "Vulture Khan, long time no see."
Looking at this young man who had difficulty connecting with his own spear in the formation, Vulture Hunting Tooth was in disbelief. How did he find this place, and how did he appear here inexplicably during the seven-day visit period that he had set for himself? Vulture Hunting Tooth thought for a long time and couldn't even figure it out.
What I can't understand the most is this: "How could your army suddenly appear...my vultures didn't report anything at all."
"The art of true illusion can be used by the Immortal God, but I, Zhao Changhe, can't use it?" Zhao Changhe smiled and slashed at it with a knife: "Although I can't apply it to the army, it is not a big problem to deceive low-minded birds like vultures. of."
"Cang!" Vulture Xingya held Zhao Changhe's sword, and his heart moved slightly. This sword was much weaker than Huangfu Qing's spear. Zhao Changhe was obviously not healed from his injury, and now he was at least on par with himself. He shouted loudly: "Zhao Changhe, you can't be considered a hero for sneak attacks. If you have the ability, fight alone with me!"
"Ha..." Zhao Changhe laughed: "Although what you said is stupid, it is actually okay... The Vulture Khan caused a lot of psychological shadow on me back then, and I also want to see how the battle between you and me goes today. "
The vulture is in ecstasy while hunting for teeth. Is Zhao Changhe blinded by his successive victories? If you really dare to challenge him, if you can capture him alive, wouldn't everything be reversed?
"Then King Zhao, pay attention!" A spear with a lifelong skill of vulture hunting fangs stabbed Zhao Changhe's face viciously.
Zhao Changhe smiled slightly, and the dragon bird pressed the side of the spear and sliced it along the pole.
Very basic sword moves.
But Vulture Hunting Tooth was shocked to find that with this pressure, no matter how hard he tried, he could not pull the spear back to its original position. He could only watch as the knife sliced his finger.
What is going on? His strength is obviously the same. Why is his own strength completely suppressed?
"This is Yujing's understanding of the rules of the world. It seems that I am still injured and have about the same strength, but everyone's understanding of strength is different." Zhao Changhe seemed to be giving him a lesson, pressing his spear, The blade stayed close to his hand without cutting it.
Vulture Hunting Tooth didn't know why Zhao Changhe kept his hand, and he struggled to pull out the spear when suddenly there was a wind and thunder behind his head.
An extremely violent battle ax struck fiercely.
Vulture Hunting Tooth looked back in shock, and what he saw was Timur's hateful and malicious eyes.
He has been hiding in the vast sea for so long, but he didn't even wait for Zhao Changhe to leave. Instead, he took advantage of this moment to take action. He didn't care that he would die if he took action. It seemed that he just wanted to take the head of his vulture hunter with his own hands!
And Zhao Changhe seemed to have discovered it a long time ago, and was cooperating with Timur and leaving his head to him?
Vulture Hunting Tooth tried to draw the spear, but was unable to do so. He tried to dodge, but was stopped in place by Timur's violent murderous intention. In just a moment, the battle ax struck, and half of Vulture Hunting Tooth's head was chopped off. , brains flying around.
The vulture that wanted to eat carrion had its head chopped off by the still-undead King Khan himself. The dream of replacing the rise was completely dissipated in the vast sea along with the shouts and wails from the surrounding area.
Zhao Changhe kicked aside the body of Vulture Xingya, and flicked the long knife: "Great Khan, please."
Timur glanced at Huangfu Qing, who was holding the battle from the side, and said calmly: "I killed this beast without any regrets. If you all attack together, I can't stop you even with one move, so why do you need to act like a hero anymore?"
Zhao Changhe said: "Because the Great Khan is a hero and has the right to die in a more respectable way."
Timur smiled slightly: "Zhao Changhe has risen in such a short time but has many friends. It is indeed not without reason. Then... look at the axe."
The battle ax whizzed over, and Huangfu Qing beside him sighed and shook his head. Even Huangfu Shaozong and others sighed.
This ax is too weak, and he is no longer the number one in the world after the death of Xia Longyuan, the Golden Horde Khan who once dominated the grassland.
He might not even be able to defeat the Vulture Hunting Tooth in a single fight... The ax that killed the Vulture Hunting Tooth was spent with all his energy and energy.
“Qiang!” The dragon bird broke into the axe, and sliced through it solidly.
The battle ax broke, and blood appeared.
Timur’s golden band on his forehead broke, revealing a long knife mark. Then he looked up at the sky and whispered: “Thank you. There are so many people buried with me.”
The burly corpse fell to the ground with a bang, listening to the screams of the vultures around him, smiling even until death.
Zhao Changhe looked at Timur's body and sighed softly.
The importance of some people lies in the fact that they do not die and the battle is not over.
The Book of Troubled Times would not be revealed before his death, no matter how many days passed.
But this time, the battle for the destiny of the world, which lasted for nearly a month and spanned the entire China and the grassland and desert, the blind man did not write in too much detail, but simply gave a brief report of the battle.
“In February, the Han Dynasty raised three armies and launched a two-pronged northern expedition.”
"Huangfu Qing led his light cavalry and galloped across the desert east, fighting for thousands of miles, pointing directly at the Holy Mountain. The Changsheng God himself set a trap, Zhao Changhe really broke the illusion, Huangfu Qing defeated Bo'e's army outside the Holy Mountain, Xue Canghai's formation killed Huyin Letai, The Han army advanced hundreds of miles and broke through the temple. Zhao Changhe, Huangfu Qingyue, and Hongling Li had magical powers, and together they beheaded Changsheng Tian. Their heads were sacrificed and sealed in Langjuxu Mountain. All thoughts on Bo's forehead were shattered, and he was killed by Huangfu Qing."
"In this battle, the sky and the earth were eclipsed, and all those who fought were injured. Zhao Changhe ran out of ammunition and food, Li Shentong was seriously injured with a broken arm, and his practice was temporarily lost. The ancient demon Jiuyouyin appeared to seize the treasure, but Zhao Changhe broke it, and the Jiuyou demon sent frivolous things thousands of miles away , making the world laugh."
Zhao Changhe: "?"
Jiuyou: “…”
“Second in the Heavenly Ranking, Bo’e fell.”
“Third on the list of people, Huyintai fell.”
"Huangfu Yongxian crossed the desert, Xuanwu broke through the wind and sand, and met Temur's army in the north of Momo. Xuanwu turned the desert into a swamp, and the cavalry was weakened, so they fought on foot. Batu won five attacks in the east, and Wuweiyang attacked In the west, the vultures hunted for their own purposes and retreated before the battle. Huangfu Yongxian took advantage of the situation to cover up the killing, and the Hu army was defeated. Chili killed himself in the chaos, and the rest surrendered. The tribes fled, with the sound of wind and cranes, the grass and trees were covered with soldiers, and hundreds of corpses were lying on the ground. Inside and out.”
“Fifty-one on the list of people, the demon fox Chili fell.”
"Ying Wu Xuanwu fought against Temur together, Yue Hongling flew his sword thousands of miles, and Temur was defeated. Huangfu Yongxian defeated the royal court, and the Golden Horde was destroyed."
"The Vulture Tribe withdrew to the vast sea and could not search for Temur. On the seventh day, Huangfu Qing led a raid on the military tent and defeated the Vulture Tribe. The Vulture Hunting Tooth invited Zhao Changhe to a duel and killed Temur with an axe. Temur fought again. Zhao Changhe, his crown was shattered and his ax was broken, and he died on the bank of the vast sea."
“No. 1 on the Heavenly List, Timur fell.”
“Twenty on the Earth Ranking, Vulture Hunting Tooth fell.”
“The war between Hu and Han lasted for a month and finally came to an end. The list of heaven, earth and people wasted in one battle.”
“Two people from the Heavenly Ranking have fallen. Judging from the overall performance, Zhao Changhe, who was originally tenth on the Heavenly Ranking, will move to the first place, and the rest will take over his place.”
“No. 1 on the list, Zhao Changhe.”
"Drinking the vast sea of horses, sealing the wolf to live in Xu. To the west, there is a big river, and the counties are Qilian."
While writing the last two sentences, the blind man looked up at the sky.
On this day, it was only two and a half years since Zhao Changhe passed through this world.
