Chapter 597: Flying Daggers

  Chapter 597 Flying Daggers

  At first, Tianzhu King didn't seem to have heard the news, his face was expressionless and he wasn't surprised. Neither angry nor uneasy, he just continued to concentrate on cooking his lamb belly.

   "It's almost ready."

  Tianzhu Wang pressed the tripe with his hand and let it rotate continuously, so that the hot pebbles inside could dissipate heat more evenly, making the lamb in the tripe more tender.

The closer to Jishi Mountain, the higher the altitude here, the herdsmen have long discovered that it is more difficult to boil water at higher altitudes, so they slowly explored some cooking methods suitable for the local area, such as ghee tsampa, and this kind of sheep tripe Meat. Put the stone on the fire first, as long as there is enough time, the stone will absorb enough heat to reach a higher temperature, and then use this heated stone to put it into the lamb belly, tighten the mouth, and make the inside The formation of a closed space can allow the temperature to reach a higher level.

  High-temperature hot stones are rolled in the lamb belly, and the fresh lamb inside is continuously roasted to release moisture. This kind of lamb is more tender and delicious than traditional roasting and boiling.

   It’s just that this mutton also has a disadvantage, that is, it takes too much time. It takes more than an hour to heat the stone, and it takes a long time to put the lamb tripe in, and the hot stone must be added several times in the middle, otherwise the lamb tripe and the mutton inside will not be cooked.

  Tianzhu Wang is a man full of energy, like a snow leopard full of dexterity and killing intent.

  When he nodded in satisfaction at the sheep belly in his hand, a smile finally appeared on his face.

  Using a knife to cut the lamb tripe and the mutton inside, King Tianzhu poured another glass of wine, and he chewed slowly and enjoyed the meal.

   Until the last meal was clean, he picked up the handkerchief and wiped his mouth and hands clean.

   Putting down the knife, he seemed to finally see the knight standing there.

"sure?"

"A tribe of more than 5,000 people was wiped out by Tang soldiers in Dadongtan, Chishuiyuan. Our people went to the battlefield to check, and it was terrible. More than 5,000 people, a tribe of more than 5,000 people, were all wiped out. , regardless of gender, age, or age, all had their heads cut off, their ears cut off, and even their noses cut off."

   "The worst thing is that those beasts ruined all the young women, and killed them after the torture."

"They didn't even let go of the livestock, they took all the horses, the cattle and sheep were killed, some of the meat was taken away, and the rest were abandoned where they were, attracting countless packs of wolves, crows and vultures... ·”

  The knight who came to report became more and more angry, his eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth.

  Tianzhu King just let out an oh.

   It seems that for the most powerful prime minister and famous king in Tuyuhun, this was expected, or not surprising. Perhaps in the eyes of those who single-handedly concocted the war, the war was already so cruel, and they had already prepared for it. No matter whether it was Tuyuhun who invaded the Tang territory, or the Tang army invaded Tuyuhun, once the attack started, they would be so cruel and ruthless.

   "Isn't Cheng Yaojin still far behind us?" Tianzhu Wang squinted at the knight.

The knight was stared at, and his whole body had goosebumps. He quickly replied, "Cheng Yaojin is indeed still behind us. This Tang cavalry that suddenly appeared has only about 5,000 people, and they are flying the Xue Ziqi. They are brothers Xue Wanche and Xue Wanjun."

   "Has the Tang army finally divided up again?" King Tianzhu took a sip of wine, "I thought Cheng Yaojin would really stick to the end and play hide-and-seek with us all the time. Divide up, very good."

  The knights didn’t know what the King of Tianzhu thought was good. They had just lost a tribe. More than 5,000 men and horses were slaughtered, and at least 20,000 livestock were lost. How can they be called good?

   "Where is the surname Xue now?"

   "Come south."

"very good."

   Tianzhu Wang Yin said harshly.

  ·······

  Hot Spring Valley.

  A cavalry of the Tang Army was passing through the valley, and the serious high-resistance made this troop, which had just won a big victory, a little tired and weak. Xue Wanche urged to speed up again and again, but it just couldn't get up.

  The carnival after the victory in Dadongtan aggravated the cavalry's high resistance. Many soldiers experienced symptoms such as vomiting, headache, and even fever and coma.

   Xue Wanche finally had to let these people stay and recuperate.

   One ride and fly to.

   "Another Tuyuhun tribe was found ahead, with about 3,000 riders."

   Xue Wanche looked at the high peaks on the left and right sides. On his map, this valley is called Hot Spring Valley, because there is a river called Hot Spring passing through the valley, and there are many natural hot springs along the coast.

  He has enjoyed the comfort of the hot springs. After he was exhausted from the march, he would lie down in the pool, and he would feel much refreshed. However, the terrain of this hot spring valley is indeed very dangerous, with nine bends and eighteen bends, the valley has many rapids and rapids, and there are hidden small valleys everywhere on both sides of the river, where soldiers can ambush everywhere.

   "Have you approached that tribe for reconnaissance?"

   "We dived to the side. Just like the Dadongtan tribe, there are old people, children and women. They don't know anything about the war in Dadongtan, and they are still grazing leisurely."

   "Is there any suspicious point nearby?" Xue Wanche asked again.

   "I've inquired about it, but no."

   Now Xue Wanche finally felt relieved, "Very well, tell the brothers, there are fat sheep in front, everyone take a rest on the spot, and then move forward at full speed, take them down before dark, and then brothers continue to be happy!"

  The exhausted cavalry, after hearing the news, couldn't help but cheer up.

  All dismounted.

  Take out the fresh beef and mutton cut from the Tuyuhun tribe in Dadongtan, because it is not easy to start a fire here, and it is difficult to boil the water, so everyone simply cuts the beef and mutton into thin slices and eats them raw.

   Afternoon.

   After a full meal, the cavalry took a short rest, then all got on their horses and rushed forward excitedly.

  The horn sounded again.

  This time the Tuyuhun people seemed to have discovered them early. This small tribe of 3,000 people was not as courageous as the previous one.

   Xue Wanche's blood didn't flow when he saw it.

   There are more than 4,000 riders next to him, chasing after him screaming.

  Tuyuhun ran for his life in a panic, while Xue Wanche chased after him desperately.

  Like a tiger chasing a flock of sheep.

   From time to time, Tuyuhun was shot and fell down.

   Chased until dusk, the 3,000-odd horsemen were chased by them for tens of miles, almost killed and injured.

  The young woman was left alive as a captive.

   Xue Wanchele stopped his horse, and couldn't help panting, this **** place, he cursed in his heart. What was supposed to be a very easy pursuit and annihilation battle turned out that the Tuyuhun people did not pose any threat to them, but the ghostly geography and climate here brought all Tang Qi to the verge of physical collapse.

  Everyone was out of breath, and some mounts were even spitting blood.

  The young female prisoner of Tuyuhun was right next to her, but at this moment, no one had the interest and energy.

  One after another, Tang Qi rolled off the saddle and lay directly on the ground panting.

  It wasn’t so serious in Dadongtan, but today’s reaction was particularly severe.

   At dusk, vultures are circling in the sky.

  Thousands of Tang Qi were lying on the ground staggeringly, their chests heaving violently, and some soldiers even coughed up blood.

  Lungs are about to explode.

   "Damn it!"

Xue Wanche looked at the few Tuyuhun young women who were sent by the soldiers in front of him. They looked average and their faces were frightened. Xue Wanche really wanted to rush up and vent to them, but found that he was also drunk The same, the hands and feet are weak, and there is more than enough heart but not enough strength.

  He dropped the thought and lay down again.

  The blue sky is extremely clear, without a trace of impurities, and a few white clouds seem to be on the top of the head, which can be picked up by hand.

  Beside the white clouds is the pure white snow peak.

  It's a beautiful place, but it's a pity that it makes people uncomfortable.

  He squinted his eyes, trying to sleep for a while.

  Suddenly, there was a slight vibration under his body.

   Xue Wanche shook his head, thinking he was hallucinating.

   But soon, he woke up suddenly, picked up Hulu and put it on the ground, and put his ears on it, the vibration sound became more obvious, and it carried a familiar vibration frequency.

   Xue Wanche jumped up violently, but almost fell.

   "Get up!"

   "Fucking up, hurry up, a large team of horses has arrived."

  In such a ghostly place, the appearance of a large cavalry team can only explain one possibility, the Tuyuhun cavalry.

   Xue Wanche picked up his foot and kicked the soldier lying on the ground fiercely, then took out a rhinoceros horn from the soldier, and blew it with all his might.

   "Enemy attack!"

   "Rise up and fight!"

   Tang Qi on the valley ground got up from the ground in surprise.

  They began to look for the armor they had just taken off, their weapons, and their horses in a panic.

   Xue Wanche just got on the horse brought by the soldiers when he saw a dark tide appearing in front of the river valley.

   Tuyuhun cavalry.

   Obviously an elite cavalry, they came quickly.

   "Assembly, array!"

   Turning his head and seeing his brothers still in a hurry, Xue Wanche couldn't help but panic.

   Xue Wanjun came galloping on horseback, "We've been fooled."

   "Maybe it just happened to happen." Xue Wanche gritted his teeth.

   Before he finished speaking, another cavalry suddenly came out from the direction they came from.

   Now, Xue Wanche's brothers all turned black.

be cheated.

   was stuck in this hot spring valley, sandwiched between two bread.

   "These damned Tuyuhun people have spent a lot of money to lure us with three thousand people."

  Xue Wanche vibrated the horse and gritted his teeth, but his hands and feet were still a little weak.

   In the blink of an eye, there were tens of thousands of Tuyuhuns with bread, but half of Tang Qi failed to mount.

   More than four thousand riders were directly submerged in ten times the number of enemies.

"kill!"

  Back to back, the two Xue Wanche brothers raised their swords and slashed. The war horse had already been shot like a hedgehog and fell to the ground.

  The guards of the two guards resisted desperately, but they fell one by one.

  On the distant hillside, King Tianzhu watched the scene in the valley with a cold expression.
