Chapter 36 A corner

Aristotle IV introduced the existing order of the known world to Zhao Zheng. He did not say what East Asia is like, but just what the known world in the past is like. However, in fact, including the Sogdians, the known world only regards East Asia as another India.

Aristotle IV reminded Zhao Zheng tactfully that the number of troops did not mean anything. The Persian army invaded Greece several times, but they were all defeated by the poorly small Greek army. Similarly, if Chandragupta, the founder of the Mauryan Dynasty, had not been able to unify India if he had not surrendered to Alexander the Great and had learned new tactics when helping the Greek army fight.

His words were so tactful that Zhao Zheng still frowned slightly when he heard this. When he wanted to say something, Wei Liao came.

"Report to the great king, the chief guard of Lord Bai Di seems to have left the city for no reason and is heading towards Weinan." Wei Liao did not hide it, and bowed as soon as he came up.

Aristotle IV could not understand Xia Yan, but Wu Ji was shocked and became uneasy. He forced himself to translate his mind, and Aristotle IV was surprised. "Alas Go Valla?" he shouted. "Why did he do this?"

No one answered his question, and then a lot of words erupted from his mouth. At first, he had to maintain etiquette, but in the end he insulted unscrupulously: this dirty and vicious Wa people!

"What do you mean by sir?" Wei Liao couldn't understand what Aristotle IV was saying, but he looked full of resentment.

"My lord said, you must kill him." Wu Ji smiled bitterly. "He is not a Greek, but a dirty and vicious barbarian."

"My..." Wei Liao nodded, and when Zhao Zheng looked at him, he hurriedly said, "I have sent cavalry out of the city when I came."

"No mistake." Zhao Zheng's face turned pale. He was not easy to get angry due to Lord Bai Di's face. If he followed the laws of the Qin Dynasty, Lord Bai Di also had the crime of being a convicted of being accused of being accused of being accused of being a servant, after all, he was his servant.

"Wi." Wei Liao came to ask for instructions on this matter. He understood better than Zhao Zheng that Weinan should not be exposed to the eyes of the Jingren Hou Ji, otherwise the result would be disastrous.

"I'm also asking you not to worry, this is just a horse." After Zhao Zheng said that, he said to Aristotle IV. Aristotle IV and Wu Ji quickly stood up and bowed: "Thank you for forgiveness."

In Zhuquan Palace, Zhao Zheng hurried over and left in disappointment. Outside Yongcheng, Aige Wala, who had left the city, left for half an hour. Yongcheng was not far from the Wei River, but only forty miles. Before the pursuers arrived, he had already seen the walls of Chen Cang City in Lu Li's mirror. His eyes crossed the walls, and to the south were the Wei River.

Just like when he came to Yongcheng, there were endless boats and the pier was busy on the Wei River. However, because of the obstruction of Chencang City, Ge Wala could not see the Wei River Wharf south of Chencang. He could only see the Wei River on both sides of Chencang City. There were a series of three rows of oar warships sailing downstream of the Wei River, which stretched dozens of miles away.

He had seen the three-row oar warship built by the Qinni people before. It was a kind of warship without a corner. When he was about to put down Lu Lijing, something seemed to flash in his eyes. When the warships on the Wei River arrived at Chen Cang, they turned to the water flowing down from the northern slope of the Qinling Mountains. The terrain on the north slope was higher than that of Chen Cang City, so he could see the situation on the water, but the distance was already very far.

In Lu Lijing's narrow vision, the three rows of oar warships that were originally sailing on the Wei River, one after another, were sailing against the Hanshui River to the heights. They were no longer rowing, but dragging them under the pulling of countless boatmen. The wind blew their sails, which was what just flashed. The Hanshui River flowed out from the heights of the Qinling Mountains, and there were only more than ten miles of boats. However, these warships continued to go up along the Hanshui River and finally disappeared deep in the mountains.

The three-row oar warships can only fight on the Wei River. The Qinni people wanted to drag it into the mountains. Is there a river on the other side of the mountain? Another thing that surprised Jago Valla was that the bow of the three-row oar warships he saw in the Sishui River had no impact angles and the stern was square. However, the stern of these warships is now the stern of the Scorpion ships familiar to the Mediterranean. Is this the three-row oar warships or the three-row oar warships in the Mediterranean?

"Is it a warship?" Aigo Valla suddenly said to himself, but as the mount continued to move forward, he seemed to see a corner of the military camp. At this moment, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came.

"Kill!" The leader of the cavalry drew his sword and pointed it at him quickly, and shouted loudly.

"Kill--!" The cavalrymen behind the cavalry shouted, then rushed towards the horse. They set their bows and arrows, and as soon as they entered the range, they quickly fired arrows. Seeing this, Al Go Vala shouted loudly. He also rode the horse vigorously, but instead of running forward, he turned his head to face the cavalrymen.

When shooting archery, the cavalry calculated the landing point, but this landing point was calculated based on the enemy's escape. Jago Wala did not escape but instead faced himself. All the arrows shot in front fell into nothing. The range of the cavalry bow was already short, and the distance between the two arrows in front was very close. Although a cavalry shot two arrows quickly at Jago Wala, the arrows were in a hurry and had no accurate head.

"Bless God!" Ah Go Wala shouted out a god that no one had ever heard of, holding a shield and a spear to face the Qin cavalry generals in front. At this time, the speed of horses on both sides was the fastest. When the cavalry generals saw the spear coming and wanted to block it, the spear had already stabbed his body one step ahead of his iron sword.

The single horse chose to fight head-on, stabbing the cavalry to death with one spear, and the remaining cavalrymen suddenly felt a sudden stern. However, at this time, both sides had no choice but to draw their swords and kill them. The cavalry spear was too deep to be pulled out, and both sides fought with swords. The advantage of the cavalry was that he rode a Sogdiana horse, an old horse who was extremely skillful in cooperating with him.

Whenever he slightly clamps the horse's belly, the horse's speed will suddenly accelerate; when he relaxes the horse's belly, its speed will slow down slightly. A sound of "Ye" from his throat, and the horse will stay away from the enemy and run to the left to avoid the sword stabbed by the enemy; when he makes a sound of "Hey", the horse suddenly goes to the right, quickly leans towards the enemy, and cooperates with him to stab a deadly sword.

He could control his mount as he pleased, but the Qin soldiers chasing him could not. Even if they had such superb horse skills, the war horses under their crotch had not received such strict and meticulous training. They were all Di horses, and although their heads were big, they did not understand the knight's wishes at all.

Relying on the advantage of the war horse, after a round of war, including the cavalry general, four cavalrymen were killed and stabbed by Jago Wala. However, there were as many as fifteen cavalrymen who were chasing him, and he had to kill eleven more people.

"Kill!" The cavalry general was killed by him. These cavalrymen could only fight to the death with Jago Wala. After the first interweaving between the two sides, the remaining cavalrymen immediately rushed back. Jago Wala groaned in pain when he saw this. Instead of riding a horse, he suddenly dismounted and pulled out the javelin on his luggage. When the enemy cavalry rushed to forty steps to start shooting arrows, he took advantage of the gap where the arrow had not fallen, quickly threw out three heavy javelins, and then held a large shield and turned over the horse in the rain of arrows.

Compared with arrows, the heavy javelin was fatal, and three javelins directly pierced the horse's horse's horse. These people made a heart-warming cry, and one even knocked the horse off the horse and nailed it to the ground. The formation of the Qin cavalry, who had never experienced the javelin, stagnated it, and at this time the enemy was already rushing towards him like a storm. After the sound of gold and iron attacks, two more cavalrymen were chopped to the ground.

During the two charges, the enemy killed nine of his own people in a row, but they were unscathed. When Ge Wala turned his horse's head again to charge, the remaining Qin soldiers ran away in a bad manner. But they did not dare to run far. One of the horses galloped towards Chen Cang, and the other riding back to Yongcheng. Both of them reported the news and asked for help. The other four horses and the injured ran a mile away and stopped running, and followed him far away.

"Blessed by God." Ah Go Vala suppressed his breath, and his two charges seemed to have exhausted all his strength. He stabbed the bloody sword to the ground by him, took out paper and pen to write quickly, then opened the wooden box on the horse's back, put the rolled letter into the bamboo tube on the feet of Xun Geo. The pigeon thrust a few times in his hand, flapping his wings and flew south.

The Jingren Hou Ji actually carried Xun Ge with him, and the faces of the cavalrymen a mile away turned pale in an instant. Their mission was to stop the Jingren Hou Ji from spying on military information. Unexpectedly, the spy not only did not stop it, but instead made the news from the Hou Ji. In a look at each other, the four cavalrymen stopped waiting for reinforcements and rushed over again.

What they didn't see was that the Xun Ge who had just flew into the sky did not fly high. It flew directly south. When passing Chen Cangcheng, a sound suddenly sounded from the top of the city: "Shoot--!"

Chen Cang rushed out dozens of arrows at the head of the city wall, and all of them were aimed at one target. Xun Ge flew high quickly and narrowly avoided the arrows. At this time, the head of the city cried out again: "Shoot--!"

Another tent of arrows flew over quickly. This time, Xun Ge was useless to fly high. At least two arrows shot it. It fell like a stone and fell into Chencang City.

Alas, Go Valla watched Xunbi be shot down, and he regretted not feeding it water when he released the Feixnbi, but unfortunately it was too late.

"Kill!" The four rushing horsemen did not see Xun Ge being shot down. They thought that the spy in front of them had released Xun Ge. They chased them, but Ge Wala did not meet the enemy. He rode his horse and ran forward quickly and soon arrived at the Weishui River. Standing at this angle, he just saw only one corner of the military camp completely exposed in front of him.

There are many earth plateaus in Guanzhong, and the Wei River flows in the gullies under the earth plateau, but the gullies are more than ten miles wide, and the Wei River does not occupy the entire gully. The military tent that is beyond your sight is laid in the gully, on the banks of the Wei River. The soldiers who are on the wooden building are very surprised to see a knight running over the earth plateau. You must know that there is no people within 50 miles of the two sides of the Wei River. All the Guizhou leaders have moved out. Whenever someone enters this area, they will kill Li Jue. How did this knight come from? Could it be that it emerged out of thin air?
