Chapter 469 The head under the sun

Hundreds of cavalrymen from Xiliang rushed over. Chu Huan raised his hand and stopped the convoy. He saw that the hundred cavalrymen on the other side were fierce, and the scimitars in their hands had been unsheathed. They were all wearing felt hats and leather armor. Only the leader was wearing iron armor, and a cluster of animal hair floated on the felt hats.

Xiliang is mainly a country where animal husbandry is a living, and cattle and sheep are their most important resources. Although there are also Jinshan iron ore, there is still a huge difference compared to the rich materials in the Central Plains.

Most of the soldiers' armor is mainly animal skins, and before these animal skins are made into battle clothes, they will be soaked with refined animal oil. In this way, the strength and toughness of the animal skins will be greatly enhanced.

There is only a small tuft of wool on the felt hat of ordinary soldiers in Xiliang, while the generals of Xiliang can identify their identities through the hair on the felt hat.

Under Xiao Tianwen, the king of the Southern Court of the Western Liang Army, there were the commanders of ten thousand men, and the commanders of ten thousand men, the commanders of centuries, and the commanders of ten thousand men. The structure was much simpler than that of the Qin army. The felt hat of ten thousand men was feathers of eagles, the commanders of thousands were wolf hairs, and the commanders of the centuries were ponytail hairs. As for the commanders of ten thousand men, they were also wool, just like ordinary soldiers, but they were black wool, while ordinary soldiers were aquatic wool. When the soldiers of the Western Liang weekly talked about promotion, they would say that it was "changing the top hair", which means changing the hair of the felt hat on their heads to represent promotion.

The leader of this team of cavalry actually had gray wolf hair floating on his felt hat. He was a commander of thousands of men. Among his cavalry were two centurions and several dozen men.

When the cavalry of Xiliang stopped when they saw the team. When they approached, they had already separated and divided into two teams, each with more than fifty people around the side and rounded a circle around the convoy. Xuanyuan Shao looked cold and fierce, but the cavalry of the guards had already held the scabbard tightly and looked solemn. They were elite soldiers of the empire. After going down to Ningshan, every move would represent the Qin Dynasty, so naturally they should show enough calmness and momentum.

The commander of the thousand men walked around and turned to the front of the convoy, stabilizing the horse, and the horse sniffed. The man had already shouted: "I am the Xiliang Mazha, are you going to the mission to surrender to my Daxiliang?"

As soon as this statement comes out, the ball changes color.

Xue Huaian glanced at Chu Huan. He was a literati after all. After going down Ningshan, he was already a little restless. At this moment, he felt a little worried when he saw the cavalry in Xiliang.

Chu Huan said lightly: "Mazang, you may have admitted your mistake. I don't know which mission you surrendered to Xiliang. This mission is going to Xiliang to marry the Grand Qin mission that Princess Xiliang and bring back to Xiliang Princess Xiliang. The mission you are waiting for may not have arrived yet, so you can wait!"

Mozang'a's expression changed immediately, and he raised the knife and pointed it at Chu Huan. The blood-drinking knife on Chu Huan's waist had also been unsheathed, pointing forward, and shouted: "If it is your Xiliang etiquette to point the knife to the other party, this is also considered a gift from me!"

When Xuanyuan Shao heard this, he immediately cooperated. The big knife in his hand suddenly pointed forward, and then shouted loudly: "It's impolite to come but not go. Brothers, return the favor to the people of Xiliang!"

"It's choking!"

The sound of pulling out the sword and the golden spear was loud. The guards cavalry pulled out the swords at their waists, pointed forward at Mozang. For a momentum, the cavalry of Xiliang saw this and only thought that the regiment had changed, they pointed at the swords in front of the swords. For a moment, the two sides faced each other's swords and weapons, and the atmosphere instantly became solemn.

Xue Huaian and several civil servants of the delegation were both frightened. The civil servants shrank into the middle of the team. Xue Huaian was the official envoy after all. After coughing, he finally said: "I am the official envoy of the Qin Dynasty. I am going to Xiliang to pass through your military camp. Please lead the way!"

When Mazang A heard Xue Huaian say this, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, saying, "The King of the South Court has an order. In order to prevent spies from inquiries, all suspicious persons entering the defense zone need to be strictly investigated!" He raised his hand and pointed to the lanes of the carriages: "Everything on the car needs to be inspected before it can be released!"

Xue Huaian frowned and said, "We are the Great Qin missions to your country, not suspicious people!"

"I will act according to the order!" Mozanga said in an undeniable tone: "Pull out the car and let us check it. If there is no problem, I will naturally let you go!"

Although Xue Huaian was a little uneasy, he knew his identity after all, and said a little angrily: "When Prince Mahazang of your country entered my Great Qin, I took good care of my Great Qin along the way without any neglect. Now that our Great Qin mission is heading to Xiliang, why are you so rude?"

Mozanga said disdainfully: "Qin is Qin, Daxiliang is Daxiliang, how can we compare?" Chu Huan glanced at the eyes of the group of Western Liang soldiers. Although the two countries had already negotiated, Mozanga and his cavalry were full of fighting spirit in their eyes, and they had no awareness of the two countries' cessation.

Seeing that Mozang'a was very tough, Xue Huaian couldn't help looking at Chu Huan, but Chu Huan said lightly: "Mozang, do you know what is in the car? I will tell you that these are all betrothal gifts for marrying Princess Xiliang. Many of them are extremely valuable. If you touch them, they may be damaged." Mozang'a coldly looked at Mozang'a and sneered: "You are just a commander, what kind of thing, and you dare to search my Daqin's betrothal gifts? Don't blame us for not reminding you that you must insist on searching. If there is any damage, you will be investigated at that time. In the eyes of the King of Xiliang, a person like you will definitely not be as valuable as these betrothal gifts in the eyes of King Xiliang!"

Mazanga showed anger and held the scimitar tightly. Chu Huan said in a deep voice: "You must have the courage. Even if you come here to search, my Qin mission will never stop you." Then a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said leisurely: "But I advise you not to search. I can be sure that you are careful. As long as you pass by the things you touched with your fingers, you will definitely be destroyed before you reach the Qingluo Royal City of Xiliang...!"

Xue Huaian didn't understand at first, but he was not a stupid person after all. He just understood what Chu Huan said in an instant, and he smiled strangely, and said loudly: "Yes, you can search, there are so many good things in the car. We have a list of betrothal gifts to marry Princess Xiliang. If you search a few items or break a few items after you search, we will naturally tell the King of Xiliang truthfully. If the King of Xiliang is unhappy at that time, don't blame us for not reminding you now!"

Mozang A didn't react and said strangely: "How could there be something missing?" A centurion next to him had already urged him to come forward and said a few words. Mozang A immediately cursed: "Shameless, you... you actually have this idea." He seemed a little angry, "You are planning to destroy the things yourself after we search, or hide them, right?"

Xue Huai smiled with a soothing beard, but Chu Huan sighed: "Your Excellency can think of it so quickly. It's really admirable. I thought you wouldn't understand when we arrived in Xiliang!"

The delegation burst into laughter.

Mazang was furious, but Chu Huan waved his hand: "Brothers, get out of the way and let them search... Mazang, search quickly, we still have to hurry up and you can't delay your time!"

Mozanga raised his hand, gritted his teeth, and finally slowly lowered it, and said loudly: "I will take you out of Yanmen Pass under the order of the King of the South Courtyard!"

Chu Huan could have thought of this.

After all, it is the Xiliang occupied area, and there must be checkpoints of the Xiliang people along the way. If there is no team of the Xiliang army leading the way, there will inevitably be a lot of trouble along the way.

Mozang'a was obviously worried that if he really wanted to search, he might be framed by the Qin delegation. If he really wanted to sue him in front of the King of Xiliang, who would know what would happen? It would be better to have less than more things. He turned his head and went to the military camp unhappily. The Qin delegation followed behind and moved forward.

The team finally entered the Xiliang Military Camp. Chu Huan saw that the camp tents were arranged in an orderly manner. Although they looked dense from afar, they still had a distance between the camp tents, which obviously made it easier for the cavalry to rush out.

Mozanga did not lead the team to pass through the belly of the barracks, but turned to one side of the barracks. On this side of the barracks were close to a lake and camped on the water. The team moved forward along the lake.

Chu Huan knew that following this road was probably Xiao Tianwen's idea. He was worried that there were people familiar with military tactics of the Qin regiment, and once they passed through the middle of the camp, they might see Xiao Tianwen's method of using troops.

"Is King Xiao not here?" Xue Huaian suddenly asked to Mozanga not far ahead, "Where we pass by, do we want to meet King Xiao?"

"The King of the South Court will not see you." Mozang Ahtou said without looking back: "You don't have to think about meeting the King of the South Court. The King of the South Court doesn't like you Qin people!"

At this moment, I suddenly heard a crying sound from the camp. Everyone was surprised and turned their heads to look at the camp not far away. A man with shabby clothes and hair was rushing towards this side. Behind him, five or six Western Liang cavalry chased after him. The cavalry were laughing wildly, just like a few wolf chasing a sheep, playing with them.

"That seems... it seems like it's a Qin soldier?" Someone suddenly shouted in the delegation: "Is he the Qin soldier's uniform?"

Chu Huan could see clearly at this time that although the man with disheveled hair was torn and dirty, it could probably be seen that it was the uniform of Qin soldiers. In this way, the man was likely to be captured by the Qin army by the people of Xiliang.

The Qin soldier only had two legs, and looked skinny and extremely weak. How could he compare to the agile speed of the Xiliang war horse? In a blink of an eye, the Xiliang cavalry had already chased him.

Seeing this, the delegation was furious. Xue Huaian was originally frightened, but when he saw the Western Liang cavalry playing with the captives of Qin soldiers, he was extremely angry and couldn't help but say, "Save him!"

The guard cavalry had already been ready. Just after a command, Xue Huaian made a sound. More than a dozen guard cavalry had already drawn their swords to rescue the man, but the distance was still a little far. Halfway through the journey, the Western Liang cavalry had already caught up with the prisoners. The scimitar was swung in the sun, and the blood was splashing. The Western Liang cavalry surrounded the man, and several scimitars rushed to the Qin prisoners. The Qin prisoners were already covered with sword marks and their throats were separated. Looking at the Qin regiment from afar, one arm was lifted up and facing the dozen Qin cavalry who were speeding over to rescue. The lips moved, and I didn't know what to say, then another knife was cut by the arm, and another knife was cut from his neck, and a big head flew out.
