Exile opening: I won with the Universal Maker

Chapter 381
Xiao Beiheng had a nightmare all night.Not only did he dream of the people he had killed, he also dreamed of his disastrous defeat at the foot of Leshan Mountain, of the rampaging black cavalry, and of being escorted outside the Meridian Gate and beheaded.

When the executioner's broadsword fell on the back of his neck, he woke up with a start, grabbed the Yan Que sword and sat up.

It was not yet fully bright, and the room was quiet, the windows were white and glaring, and the charcoal basin on the ground was glowing red hot.It was quiet outside the house, only the whistling of the wind and the occasional snort of the black horse could be heard.

He touched his forehead first, and wiped the cold sweat with his hands, which was cool.Turning to look at Su Mo, she turned her back to him and remained motionless, as if she was in a deep sleep.

Usually, if he woke up with a start, Su Mo would get up very intimately to comfort him.Now he sat up in shock, but she was still asleep.

However, Xiao Beiheng had no intention of caring about these small things, he had more important things to do, and at dawn he would organize his troops and march eastward.

Leshan County and Shengjing City are definitely not allowed to go, they have to go far away and join the army of Su Han, the prefect of Anzhou.Last night, the envoy set out with his will to contact the prefect of Yuzhou and the prefect of Jingzhou respectively. If it is fast, there should be a return tonight.

Liu Yi, the prefect of Liangzhou, swore allegiance to Xiao Zhuo. He had no expectations, as long as the remaining two prefects sent troops to help, he could still gather a large army.

He put on his armor, took the Yanque Sword, carried the Baodiao Bow, carried his quiver, opened the door and went out of the house.When the dilapidated wooden door slowly closed, Su Mo sat up and looked back at the door with pity and sadness in her eyes.

She loves and hates Xiao Beiheng.Needless to say, love, that is the husband I promised myself.What I hate is that my husband has gone against the law, repeatedly doing things that anger people, but never repents.His heart was cold and hard, like the Yan Que sword that he never left his body for a moment.

After staying for a while, she sighed and got up to get dressed.

The escape was too hasty, all the servants stayed in the big camp under Leshan City, and no one came to serve her in the empty house.She didn't care either, and thought while dressing: After all, Xiao Beiheng took her with him, and he still has her in his heart.

After one night, the outside world has changed, and the eyes are full of white snow.This innocence covered up the tragedy that happened last night, as if nothing had happened.Some soldiers have already got up, and are preparing saddles for their horses outside the house, and some are clearing the snow at the door.

Xiao Beiheng breathed white air, stepped on the creaking snow, and walked towards a patrol team east of the village entrance, wanting to ask what happened last night.

After his defeat from Leshan, he was very worried that he would be pursued.When sleeping at night, soldiers were also arranged to guard around Xuehe Village, and patrols patrolled throughout the night.

As he approached the patrol, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

As the Son of Heaven, these soldiers are all loyal followers of him, and they will salute him when they see him from afar.Now he was less than ten feet away from the other party, but none of the patrol team turned their heads to look at him. Instead, they seemed to be avoiding his gaze and hurried out of the village.

"Stop." Xiao Beiheng shouted to the patrol team, and at the same time took off the carved bow and drew out the golden arrow.

The patrol team still didn't answer, but they all stopped. The leading sergeant held his bow, as if he couldn't make up his mind whether to answer or continue walking.

Xiao Beiheng put the arrow on the string, and said sharply: "Turn your heads back immediately, otherwise the widow will..."

The leading sergeant turned around suddenly, opened his bow and shot an arrow.Xiao Beiheng was proficient with bows and crossbows, he had been prepared for a long time, he dodged an arrow sideways, and shot an arrow at the same time, the arrow went like a shooting star, and hit the man's throat.The man's bow fell to the ground, and he took two steps back holding the arrow shaft with both hands and fell to the snow.

Although the sky was still dark, but the snow was bright, Xiao Beiheng could not help but be surprised when he recognized that the man was from Xirong.

This is the patrol team in the village, and it is actually a Xirong person in disguise.That can only mean one thing, the scouts who were guarding outside the village must have been killed by the Xirong people.These Xirong people disguised themselves as patrols so that the soldiers in the village could not be warned of the approach of the enemy.

Obviously, a large number of enemy troops are about to attack.

Only then did he realize that the rest of the Xirong people on the patrol had drawn their swords and rushed towards him shouting.

Xiao Beiheng stepped back and shouted for warning, he shot down two people first with his bow, and then drew out the Yan Que to kill them, the rest of the Xirong people were surrounded and killed by the soldiers who heard the news.

Lin Kui also rushed out of the house when he heard the movement, and came to Xiao Beiheng with a sword in his hand. When he saw the Xirong people in the snow, he was shocked and said, "Your Majesty, how did the Xirong people's spies sneak into the village?"

Xiao Beiheng put the Yanque Sword back into its scabbard and said, "Hurry up, the enemy is coming. All soldiers must mount their horses."

The soldiers were turning around to lead their horses under the sheds of their respective houses. There was already a killing sound outside the village. I don't know how many Xirong infantry appeared from the woods outside the village entrance and rushed over with their knives raised.

Xiao Beiheng went up to Wuzhen, and saw the black Western Army soldiers coming, with "Qiang" written on the flag, and recognized the soldiers and horses of Qianglin, he couldn't help being frightened, and hurriedly ordered the Dingbei Army cavalry under his command to fight.

He expected that Xiao Zhuo would not let him go, but he did not expect Qiang Lin's pursuers to come so fast.

The two sides fought a battle at the entrance of Xuehe Village. The number of Western soldiers was more than [-], which was about the same as that of the Dingbei Army. Unable to withstand the attack, they retreated steadily towards the village.

Seeing that he couldn't resist, Xiao Beiheng felt timid, and hurriedly rode his horse and fled towards the west exit of the village.When passing by the house he lived in, Lin Kui had escorted Su Mo out and shouted, "Your Majesty, the empress is here."

Xiao Beiheng stopped Wu Zai, bent down on the horse, wrapped Su Mo's waist with one hand, pulled her onto the horse's back, and sat down in front of him.

Su Mo turned her head and smiled at him.

Su Mo, who had been icy last night until now, suddenly showed a smile, which made Xiao Beiheng startled.But now that the situation was critical, he didn't have time to think about the meaning of this smile, so he said to Lin Kui, "Get on your horse quickly, let's get out of here quickly."

Lin Kui also got on his horse, calling for soldiers to escort him along the way.

The soldiers of the Dingbei Army in the village also knew that they could not withstand the Xirong people's offensive, so they got on their horses and followed Xiao Beiheng out of the village, continuing to flee westward.

Seeing the commander fleeing, the soldiers who were fighting with the Xirong army immediately lost their will to fight.

When the battle was over, Qiang Lin led a cavalry and entered Xuehe Village with a large number of horses.

The reason why he was able to catch up with Xiao Beiheng's cavalry all depended on these war horses.During the battle, he only let the soldiers fight on foot, because he was afraid of losing his horses.Now that the fighting had stopped, he redistributed the horses to the soldiers who had just fought, and asked some soldiers to escort the surrendered Dingbei Army soldiers back.

Hugubie was also in the team, and he said with some puzzlement: "Your Majesty, there are only more than 1000 soldiers. It's freezing in the cold, and it's a burden to carry. Why don't we kill them right away, and let's go after Xiao Beiheng with all our strength?"

Qiang Lin circled his horse and turned around, and said with a cold face: "Princess An doesn't like to kill soldiers. If she hurts soldiers, she will be angry. You take the prisoners to Leshan and hand them over to King An's army, and let them Fat loss, this king will go after Xiao Beiheng himself."

A Xirong sergeant came over and said, "Your Majesty, all the villagers in this village have been killed, and the corpses are piled up in the village's ancestral hall. The wounds are from last night."

Qiang Lin said: "Since it's already an empty village, it's okay to occupy it. Let the soldiers enter the house to rest. Also, send someone to inform the Queen of Xiliang about what happened here, so as not to misunderstand."

Hu Gu don't ask the commanders to arrange for the soldiers to clean the battlefield, move into the village, and walk with Qiang Lin himself, saying: "Your Majesty, Xiao Beiheng has just escaped, we will definitely be able to catch up if we chase it now."

Qiang Lin got off his horse in front of a courtyard and said:
"Last night, the whole army marched in the snow. Everyone was cold and hungry. They even fought a battle. Rest first before chasing after him. Even if Xiao Beiheng fled to the ends of the earth, I can still find him."

Hugubie also knew that his king was one of the best trackers in the Xirong tribe. When Shen Yuexi was the leader of the dark guards, he had demonstrated his superb tracking skills many times, so he no longer worried.

For these soldiers, the enemy of King Qianglin was their enemy.They worked tirelessly to follow King Qianglin, just to avenge the king, not to mention the shame of Bai Xiushan's defeat.

No matter where Xiao Beiheng fled, Qiang Lin would follow him like a shadow until he caught up with him.
