Chapter Thirteen: Akihara, Chaoyang, and Black Riders
Chapter 13 Akiyuan, Chaoyang, Black Cavalry
A trace of white appeared in the sky, and the sun was still rubbing her eyes and did not open it. The faint morning light enveloped the grassland and did not make people's sight better. After the carnival last night, the people of the small tribe were still immersed in the alcohol and sleepiness. They should not feel the call of the morning sun, but gradually, there was a hidden sound in the tribe's curtain, as if many people were awake.
What awakened the tribe's people was not the rising sun, but the neat sound of horse hooves roaring like thunder in the back of the tribe, and the large number of noisy horse hooves in front of the tribe. It seemed that countless cavalry were approaching from all directions.
In the morning light, Fan Xian's face was calm. Finally, he looked at Haitang, picked up the knife she gave to Liangzi from his feet, and put it solemnly in his arms.
"Goodbye, I hope I won't wait for another three years." Fan Xian said to Haitang very seriously. There were a few strands of blood on Haitang's lips, which looked very pitiful, but the arrangements on the grassland had begun to be launched. Wang Ting Shanyu had sent troops to chase him. If he wanted to escape, he could only leave at this moment.
Haitang didn't know how he was going to go, because there were sounds of horse hooves coming from afar from all directions. It seemed that the cavalry of the royal court had surrounded the grassland and looked at him with complicated eyes.
This glance seemed like a heavy hammer, hitting Fan Xian's body, causing his body to float slanted towards the meadow behind him, floating relaxed and pleasant, but also ecstasy.
He didn't see how his toes kicked the ground. Fan Xian's body was like a thin rope tied to his waist, like a kite, and it slowly accelerated, turning into a blurred figure in the morning light, gradually moving away, gradually becoming smaller, and integrating into a large area of smoke and dust that was traveling to the front of the tribe.
The dust seemed to be the free wild horses roaming on the grassland. Next to the herd of horses, there were more than a dozen grassland men, who were sticking to lasso, as if they were following the group of wild horses for days and nights, waiting to trap the horses in one fell swoop.
Haitang looked at this scene quietly, knowing that these wild horses were just illusions, and that Fan Xian must have arranged a team to meet her in advance. Seeing Fan Xian retreat without causing trouble before, she knew that she had not seen her for three years. This young friend from the Southern Dynasty had successfully integrated the Tianyi Heart Method and the domineering true energy in her body, and stood firmly at the peak of the ninth grade, and was about to touch the limits of human beings.
No wonder he was so confident that he dared to go deep into the grassland and launch a night attack on the royal court and Zuo Xianwang's tent. In such a state, unless the grandmaster reappears on the grassland, who can defeat him?
But the sound of cavalry sprinting sounded from the three sides behind him. Shanyu Subida had been enduring for three days and had reached its limit. At this moment, he finally closed the encirclement. Even if Fan Xian had arranged a cavalry to support him in advance, could he escape the pursuit of more than a thousand cavalrymen in the royal court on the vast grassland?
Haitang narrowed his eyes and felt a little worried. If a strong man at the ninth grade faces the enemy head-on, he will certainly be unable to defeat him. But after all, the two of them are still countless distances from the realm of the Grand Master. How can they survive if they really face thousands of troops?
Fan Xian's figure in the distance had already landed in the group of wild horses. What's amazing is that those wild and free-spirited wild horses that looked unwilling to settle down did not reject Fan Xian's entry. Even when Fan Xian sat on the head horse, the fierce head horse just shook his neck helplessly, but never thought of throwing him down.
The rapid sound of horse hooves passed by Haitang, with the sound of wind, grass scum, and unyielding momentum, the fierce cavalry of the Xihu Royal Court flew across the meadow and killed the wild horses in the distance!
The strong wind passed by, causing Haitang's leather robe to whistle. She wiped away the blood from her lips and lowered her head and said nothing.
A horse neighed and stopped from a very fast speed. The Hu nobleman immediately turned around and rose up with inertia, landed beside Haitang with a bang. His feet were as stable as a mountain, revealing his wonderful riding skills.
The person who came was the owner of the grassland, Shanyu Subida. He glanced at Haitang, and his eyes gradually showed anger and anger, and said, "Are you injured?"
Haitang nodded and smiled with some difficulty.
"Nan Qing Fan Xian?" Shanyu Subida was tall, with strong facial features and a gaze of eyes. He asked softly at the figure galloping southeast along with the group of wild horses in the distance.
"It's him." Haitang replied softly.
Shanyu Subida never underestimated any of his enemies, especially a ruthless character like Nan Qing and Fan Xian. He endured it for three days, but in fact he had prepared for three days, and mobilized the Hu tribe on this grassland to keep this powerful minister of Nan Qing on the grassland.
Since the other party dared to go deep into the grassland, approach the royal court, and challenge his dignity, Shanyu Subida will definitely express his anger in the most direct way.
Wang Ting made full preparations, confirming that there were no Qing Kingdom cavalry patrolling the grassland and preparing to secretly respond to Fan Xian, but the spies did not notice the group of wild horses, because the group of wild horses on the grassland was everywhere. The most important thing was that they had seen these wild horses next to a piece of water plants. Judging from their jumping posture and habits, it was indeed a group of wild horses.
No one can escape using the wild horse before subdueing the wild horse. This is the theorem on the grassland, but today this theorem seems to be broken.
Smoke and dust were shattered from all directions, and more than a thousand royal cavalry came over and rushed through the tribe's tent. With the shock and fearful eyes of the Hu people, they rushed towards the group of wild horses. They were about to encircle the place three miles ago, surrounded the group of horses, as well as more than a dozen men beside the horses, and Fan Xian, who was hiding in the group of wild horses, but...
Only when a long neigh was heard soaring into the sky, the wild horses seemed to be driven by some force, and suddenly woke up from the chaos, stretched out their muscles, raised their four hooves, accelerated suddenly, and rushed towards the gap southeast of the encirclement!
The morning light was dim, wild horses neighed, hundreds of horses contrasted with the faint light, exuding a black skin color, galloping on the grassland. In just a moment, they rushed out before the royal cavalry surrounded!
This scene has a primitive, powerful beauty that shocked the minds of countless people.
Shanyu Subida stood beside Haitang with a rein in one hand, staring at this scene coldly, narrowing his eyes slightly, but hid the shock in his heart very well, and flipped his body. He jumped onto the horse and said, "I'll catch this little white face and vent your anger."
In fact, he had already admitted at this time that this young powerful minister of the Southern Dynasty, who could be compared with Songzhi Immortal Order, was definitely not just a novice. Just looking at this magical ability to manipulate wild horses, I am afraid that no second person could be found on the entire grassland.
"The king's court was attacked last night, and Zuo Xian was assassinated. I don't know how to live or die." Haitang stood on the meadow, among dozens of guards of Shanyu, and calmly told what Fan Xian admitted.
Shanyu held the reins in both hands and was slightly stunned. Then he grabbed the horse's belly with his feet and rushed towards the underside of the meadow.
It turned out that the Qing State Supervision Office was going deep into the grassland for these things. Is the attack on the royal court still a trivial matter? As long as the elite cavalry of the Qing State came over, what would it be if some people were killed? Shanyu did not expect that the Qing State Supervision Office was very picky to kill people. Those who died played an extremely important role in his ideal of building a country on the grassland.
The key is that King Zuo Xian was assassinated. This news made Shanyu's heart cold. Could it be that the grassland that had been calm for two years was about to fall into chaos because of King Zuo Xian's death? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but curse secretly. King Zuo Xian was his clan uncle and was extremely arrogant in front of him. Who knew that he would let the assassin of Qing Kingdom finish it with a knife. He was really a traitor.
Shanyu looked at the smoke and dust in the distance in anger, and rushed towards the southeast first. Although the little white-faced used the cover of the wild horses to break out of the encirclement unexpectedly, on this vast grassland, Shanyu believed that no one could escape the pursuit of the royal cavalry.
From here to Qingzhou City, the most border of Qingguo, it would take more than ten days to run wildly even if you were not willing to run wildly on the grassland for ten days. There were still the hunting of the Xihu Royal Court cavalry behind him. Who could withstand it? Shanyu rode a thousand-mile horse from tens of thousands of grasslands. He believed that he could stop Fan Xian. Although Qingguo was also extremely powerful in riding, people on the grassland still believed that the whole world was still the Xihu Erlang's riding skills were the most exquisite. If they could not catch up with the enemy who could see the shadow on the grassland, they might as well commit suicide.
The morning light is getting stronger, the vision between heaven and earth is getting brighter, and the deformed sun is half protruding on the horizon on the east side of the grassland, illuminating everything on the Akira.
Haitang quietly looked at everything in front of him, a trace of worry and gloom flashed in his eyes. He saw that on the grassland, the Western Hu cavalry like a torrent had not been surrounded. With the exquisite riding skills of the Hu people, they quickly formed a team and turned into a fan. Thousands of horsemen were like this, chasing towards the east quickly.
Two or three miles ahead of these Hu cavalry pursuers, hundreds of black wild horses were running wildly, with smoke and dust growing on their hooves, like two wisps of light smoke, heading eastward and heading towards the red sun. Suddenly, some people jumped out of the group of wild horses and rode on horseback. I don’t know where these people were hiding before and how they could follow the wild horses. More than 100 heroes from the Qing Kingdom rode on hundreds of wild horses and galloped on the grasslands ruled by the Hu people. Before the red sun, the horses and horses seemed so energetic and arrogant.
The pursuers of the Western Hu made a big mistake in their judgment. They thought that when it comes to riding, the Wangting cavalry was naturally unparalleled in the world, and no one could compare to them. And they didn't know how the Qing people controlled the wild horses. However, although the wild horses were strong, they were not as obedient as the war horses. So they thought that on this wide grassland, it would take at most half a day to catch up with the Qing people running around.
Shanyu Subida thought the same way. He even wondered if he should have arrows killed the powerful minister of Qingguo named Fan Xian after he surrounded these Qingguo people, without giving the Princess Songzhi any chance to plead with him.
However, all developments are different from the judgment of the cavalry of the Xihu Royal Court. Half a day passed and a day passed. The proud knights on the grassland still could not catch up with the people of Qing, and could not even pull some distance closer!
The reason is very simple, because the wild horses in the eyes of these Hu people are not wild horses at all, but military horses raised by the Qingguo Supervision Bureau for a long time. The reason why they can hide the eyes of countless people on the grassland and hide the tribes that are famous for horse racing, and become wild horses wandering among the water plants. All because these horses were drugged.
A drug mixed with ephedrine made these military horses in the Supervision Institute appear more active, wilder, and more free than ordinary horses. Moreover, these horses were very careful not to nail iron or braid, and even their manes had not been sorted out. Once they ran, they really felt... the feeling of long hair was floating. No matter who saw it, they would think it was a group of wild horses. That night, under the vigilance of the royal cavalry, they quietly approached Fan Xian's place.
Fan Xian held the reins in one hand and lowered his head to the horse. He carefully felt the situation of the horse, and responded to his subordinates a total of hundreds of people. Except for the more than ten elite soldiers disguised as horse men, the others were hiding in the horses with their superb riding skills at the beginning.
After experimenting many times, the medicinal power of ephedrine is not as effective as it has on humans, so that these war horses will not be disobedient. However, for the pursuers of the royal court, the running speed of these horses is a bit terrible.
The war horse disguised as a wild horse is still a war horse. What's more, a war horse that took stimulants. Fan Xian knew that the medicinal power of the stimulants could not be supported for too long, but he didn't need too long. One hundred people took turns to ride hundreds of horses, giving the horses under his seat enough rest time and time to return to the medicine. If this happened, the people from the Shanyu Royal Court chased him, Fan Xian simply cut his neck and got it done.
A good horse must be ridden. This is the second mistake made by the Western Hu pursuers in their judgment. They always thought that no one in the world was more superb than their own riding skills and was stronger in long-range raids, but they forgot a name.
Black Rider.
The cavalry of Qing State is extremely powerful. In addition to armor and protective gear, it is not much worse than the cavalry of Zhuxihu. The black cavalry is the elite among the elite cavalry of Qing State. After Chen Pingping's careful selection and training, the quality of individual soldiers is really shocking.
Especially when the Western Hu people were proud of their pride in the long-distance pursuit, the Black Cavalry had the most prominent war history in the world.
Recalling that year, when Qing State was defeated in the Northern Expedition, Emperor Qing was trapped in poor mountains and rivers. Chen Pingping heard the news and led the black cavalry to rescue him. Within six days, he rushed thousands of miles on the battlefield, saving Emperor Qing, who was still the crown prince at that time.
Another year, Chen Pingping personally led the black cavalry to the territory of the Great Wei Kingdom, capturing the hero Sean alive. Before the Great Wei army had no time to react, it retreated into the territory of Qing Kingdom like lightning, and traveled thousands of miles in and out.
History has long proved that the Black Cavalry's ability to raid thousands of miles is the strongest in the world, no doubt about it.
The black cavalry of the Supervision Institute became famous for his raids of thousands of miles. After the system was completed, the most common practice was this situation. He put a lot of effort into maintaining the medicinal power of war horses. He advanced like wind and fire, retreat like water and clouds, and disappeared on the battlefield in a moment. Progress is the best in the world and retreat quickly, and he is also the best in the world. How can those elite cavalry of the Xihu Royal Court catch up with this group of bird-like sprinting teams?
The autumn wind on the grassland hit Fan Xian's face. His eyes narrowed, he glanced at Jing Ge beside him, looked at the silver mask on his face, and couldn't help but smile. If he had not had absolute confidence in his subordinates, how could he dare to take such a risk, go deep into the grassland royal court, and lead Haitang Shanyu in the heart of Xihu, and put down the two big bombs.
When they chased to the third day, the cavalry in the royal court finally discovered a little strange. They had not slowed down a little speed. The grassland horses under their seats were extremely tired, but they still could not catch up with each other. Moreover, the people of Qing, who were bold and rushing deep into the grassland, seemed to have left enough. It seemed that they might let the horse go at any time, but they forced the speed to seduce the cavalry in the royal court behind.
Hearing the vigilant and exhausted return of the great master, a trace of cold flashed across Shanyu Subida's face, which was full of dust. In fact, he was the first person to find the problem. He could feel that something was wrong with the strange and even magical wild horses ahead. However, although the goshawks in the royal court were hovering up, there was no big tribe to intercept the grasslands of Qingzhou, and Shanyu had no choice.
The news of Zuo Xianwang's assassination has been confirmed. Shanyu knew what he should do the most. Once the entire grassland knew about this news, he would turn his doubts at himself or the You Xianwang. The men under Zuo Xianwang's tent must have begun to clamor for the avenge of the Wise King.
In order to stabilize the status of the royal court, Shanyu Subida should immediately return and give Zuo Xianwang an explanation. One sentence explains that the longer he leaves, the greater the suspicion of Zuo Xianwang's account will be about him.
Shanyu Subida naturally did not fear the revenge of the subordinates of Zuo Xianwang, but if he wanted to become the real king on the grassland, he had to prevent bloody internal strife. He believed in the words of the Queen Songzhi, that the founding of the grassland would definitely be successful without just a iron-blooded fight.
But... he was unwilling to accept it... the speed of the horse under the Shanyu slowed down. Looking at the group of wild horses that seemed to never feel tired, he sighed deep in his heart, extremely unwilling to accept it.
All the royal cavalry stopped and turned their attention to the great land Shanyu. They didn't know what to do next, whether to continue chasing in vain or go back? They all knew that there seemed to be some chaos on the grassland. But if they just went back like this and watched the Qing people come to the grassland to show off their power, they were really unwilling to accept it.
Of course, Shanyu Subida was not willing to give up, but as the owner of the grassland, sometimes he had to suppress the anger in his heart. Starting from the interests and choosing the most correct path, he waved his hand a little sadly, signaling the cavalry of the royal court to turn his horse's head and prepare to return to the royal court. At this moment, a strong anger suddenly rose in his eyes!
Because when the Western Hu cavalry stopped pursuing momentum, the deserters in the twilight ahead also stopped and stopped on the shallow meadow. Looking back, it seemed that they were waiting for them!
What a humiliation this was. Shanyu gritted his teeth and squinted his eyes. After a while, he relaxed his facial expression and said coldly: "Go back."
"The other party is not fooled." Jing Ge glanced at Lord Tisi, who was covered in sand and said, "It seems that he will not chase after him again."
Fan Xian spit out the dust in his mouth, frowned, but his mood relaxed a little. The current situation seemed to be that his deserters were very relaxed. But only those who were chased could feel that Hu Qi was terrifying.
These elite cavalry of the Xihu Royal Court really put huge pressure on the Black Cavalry. In terms of speed alone, these Xihu cavalry are indeed the most powerful genus in the world, far more powerful than the cavalry of the Great Wei Dynasty back then. The black cavalry seemed to be careless, but in fact they were already in a mess. If the cavalry of the Royal Court could last for another two days, and when the medicinal power of the Black Cavalry war horse gradually reversed, I was afraid that Fan Xian would be in trouble.
The reason why Fan Xian has not let the black cavalry run wild is to act as if he is confident and to attack the confidence of the cavalry of the Shanyu Royal Court. At present, this plan seems to have worked. Moreover, Fan Xian knew that ambitious people like the Xihu Shanyu would not be overwhelmed by anger and only care about chasing themselves, regardless of the chaos in the royal court, and the grassland riots that may be triggered by Zuo Xianwang.
Several miles behind, the royal cavalry gradually formed a team and retreated to the rear. Shanyu Subida landed at the last place. The light armor shining on his body reflected a faint light, and it still looked so cold.
Fan Xian spat, spit out the last bit of sand in his mouth, and said, "I guess this time I left a very deep impression on him. In the future, he will definitely not dare to fight in the field at will."
"It's good to scare him away." Jing Ge glanced at him and said, "It's just that the prince arranged an ambush at Hongshankou for more than ten days, but he couldn't wait for the arrival of Shanyu, so I'm afraid he would be a little disappointed."
