Chapter 330
"General, are we still chasing him?" A young knight jumped off his horse and strode towards Li Guang.He was stabbed in the face, cut the bridge of his nose, and was bleeding, but he didn't care, immersed in the strange excitement.

Li Guang frowned and looked around. "Jin Ji, why are you here?"

"Hahaha..." Jin Ji laughed with his face up, with indescribable pride. "General, we haven't left all this time, we just avoided you."

Li Guang's expression became serious, and he said sharply, "Where's your brother? What's wrong with him, how dare he disobey my order?"

Jin Ji's face darkened, he turned his head to look elsewhere, and said after a moment of silence: "My brother died in battle two days ago."

"Nonsense!" Li Guang was furious. "I said a long time ago that father and son cannot walk together, and brothers cannot walk together. Why don't you listen? If your brothers are killed at the same time, who will take care of your parents at home, even if you have made meritorious service, what can you do if you are sealed as a marquis..."

Jin Ji stiffened his neck, his eyes were bigger than Li Guang's. "Isn't the general also a father and son?"

Li Guang was speechless.He swung his horsewhip and whipped it facelessly. "Zhu Zi, dare to talk back to me!" He looked vicious, and his whip was whirring, but he was actually a few feet away from Jin Ji.But when Jin Ji saw that Li Guang was really angry, he didn't dare to speak back, so he turned around and ran away.

Li Jiao stepped forward and hugged Li Guang. "Ah Weng calm down, his elder brother has already died in battle, if you kill him again, won't it ruin his family?"

Li Guang turned around, kicked Li Jiao to the ground with a flying kick. "It's a good thing you did, right?" He whipped his horsewhip.

Li Jiao turned over and got up, lying on the blood-soaked grass, kowtowing repeatedly. "Awong, if it wasn't like this, how could we gather three thousand riders in just ten days? Aweng, I can't help it."

The knights next to him rushed over to persuade him.Li Guang smoked a few times and was stopped by someone, his anger still lingering. "Give me the statistics immediately, especially the casualties of father, son, and brothers in the army. Go!"

"Here!" Li Jiao didn't dare to delay, and hurried to go.

Li Guang looked at the restless knights all around him, and sighed, "You...you bastards." The knights looked at each other and couldn't help but secretly laughed.They looked at the captives, their eyes sparkling with excitement again.

It was getting late, Li Guang ordered to camp beside Xiu Tuze.He worked tirelessly, went to every tent, and counted the casualties together with Li Jiao.

The results were brilliant, but the losses were also many.Especially today's battle.What they met was the guards of Xiutu Royal Court. They fought hard for half a day. Although they won the final victory, they captured more than [-] nobles of the Xiongnu, including the Yan clan and the prince, and beheaded more than [-] people. However, the number of soldiers killed in battle exceeded [-]. , plus the accumulated losses before, only half of the [-] riders left at the time of the expedition, and everyone was injured.

Li Guang thought over and over again and decided to stop advancing.The casualties were too great, and it was already difficult for him to continue. If he went forward, once he encountered a strong opponent, his entire army might be wiped out, and all previous efforts would be wasted.

Li Jiao was a little reconciled. "Ah Weng, isn't it a pity that we stopped advancing just after traveling thousands of miles? Judging from the situation of the Xiutu Royal Department, the main force of the Huns has indeed marched westward. If we go forward for a few days, we may gain even more."

Li Guang shook his head. "The harvest will be greater, but the loss will also be greater. It is difficult for us to guarantee the results of the battle without backup. Moreover, Wuwei's terrain is dangerous. If we can defend it, it will pose a greater threat to the Huns than a few robberies."

As Li Guang said, he drew a sketch on the ground with a short knife. "This is the land of Henan, this is Xiu Tuze, and this is Shangjun. Henan is close to Shangjun. The Huns going south can directly threaten Guanzhong, and they can even drive into Longxi. Henan has formed a pincer attack, making preparations for the next step to capture Henan."

Li Jiao nodded repeatedly.He is a disciple of Longyou, and he is also a descendant of the general, so he has a clear understanding of the general terrain here.He was just a little worried. "Ah Weng, if we stop here, wouldn't elder brother and Liang Xiao fight alone?"

"How could they come here?" Li Guang snorted. "Boy, if you care about it, you will be confused, and you will not choose what you say. Liang Xiaoyuan is in Dawan. It is said that it is nearly ten thousand miles away from here, and it is also thousands of miles away from the west end of Hexi. No matter how brave he is, it is impossible for him to appear here."

Li Jiao scratched his head, a little embarrassed.Although he didn't know how far the Western Regions were, based on what he knew about Liang Xiao, it seemed unlikely that he would do such an unreliable thing.Running thousands of miles is already an extreme adventure, let alone nearly ten thousand miles.

"Go back to Chang'an immediately, report the military situation to the imperial court, and ask the emperor to arrange troops to respond as soon as possible. Once the main force of the Huns returns to help, we alone will not be able to defend this place."

"Here." Li Jiao bowed to accept the order.

At the foot of Yanzhi Mountain, at the confluence of Qiang River and Ruo River, Liang Xiao stationed his horse on the hillside, watching the Yuezhi people and Qiang people rushing to and fro all over the mountains and plains, and the Huns running wildly, crying for their father and mother, with the corners of their mouths raised. A little smile.

It's such a good feeling to have a little brother.If he hadn't encouraged the Yuezhi people and the Qiang people to rob the Huns together, how could he and the hundreds of people of King Pulei have achieved such a great result? He might have become a polished commander.

But now, he doesn't need to do anything at all, tens of thousands of Yuezhi people and Qiang people take the initiative to help.Although it is not an elite, but the victory lies in the large number of people, and the Huns were defeated completely.

The terrain here is good. Several streams flow down from the Nanshan Mountains and converge into rivers in the valleys, nourishing the large pastures on both sides.Even after running around for more than a month, the severely weakened war horse gnawed on these fresh pastures, and gradually regained its strength.As for people, not to mention, not only has the injury basically recovered, but also has a tendency to gain weight.

Liang Xiao felt that this place fully met the requirements for stationing troops. If thousands of soldiers could be stationed here to guard various passes, the Huns would be able to enter and leave the Western Regions freely and cooperate with the Wusun people.

"My lord, let's go down and charge for a while too." Xie Guanglong leaned over and begged. "I've been idle for too long, and my bones are almost eroded." As he spoke, he patted his thigh again. "Look at my legs, they are almost getting fat. Look at this horse, they are almost too fat to walk."

Liang Xiao couldn't help laughing.For the past half month, their life has indeed been too comfortable.With wine and meat offered every day, and accompanied by women at night, everyone is almost corrupt.

"Don't worry, the tough battle is yet to come." Liang Xiao was confident.He is not Xie Guanglong, he only wants to kill for a good time, he must think further and pay attention to the overall situation.It has been a month and a half since he left Pulei Sea to attack the Huns.No matter how slow the Huns reacted, they should have received the news, and they might already be on their way back for help.

He still has to fight all the way back to Dawan, of course he has to maintain his strength.

"Is there any tough battle? Are there many benefits?"

"Do you think there are many benefits to fishing out Aliusu?"

Xie Guanglong's eyes lit up immediately. "That must be a lot. My lord, we have to kill him well. When I see that stick, I want to kill him."

"Then stay at ease. If you have fat, exercise more, and don't keep focusing on those women's bellies. Are those women comparable to the beauties of our big men? Why don't big men have no wives? What a shame."

"Haha..." Xie Guanglong scratched his head in embarrassment, and laughed twice.He turned his head, looked at the hillside eyes, and suddenly called out. "My lord, look, it seems to be us Han people."

Liang Xiao looked along his fingers, and saw a group of people galloping along the weak water. There were about [-] riders. The most conspicuous was a carriage, an oversized carriage. Pulled by four horses, majestic and majestic, they galloped all the way.

Liang Xiao couldn't help laughing when he saw the carriage.This carriage looked too familiar to him.

Liang Xiao shook the reins lightly, Mingzhu, who was gnawing grass with her head down, raised her head, glanced into the distance, spread her hooves, and ran down the hillside.When Tu Niuer and Pang Shuo saw each other, they glanced at each other and said in unison, "Why is this scoundrel here?"

"Brother Niuer, who is he?" Sigma asked curiously.

"A shameless scholar." Tu Niu'er gritted his teeth while riding his horse to chase after him, and said, "It's really a haunting spirit that has come after me here."

While speaking, Liang Xiao had already rushed to the carriage.The coachman shook the reins and let out a long sigh, the four horses slowed down and the carriage stopped.Dongfang Shuo pushed open the window, stuck out his big head, and glanced at Liang Xiao. "For the sake of your warm welcome, I won't ask you for money."

Liang Xiao was overjoyed. "Speak up, as much as you want."

"Haha, it looks like you've made a fortune."

"I dare not say that I am rich, but it is more than enough to support you." Liang Xiao jumped into the carriage and punched Dongfang Shuo hard. "How did you come?"

"Aiyo——" Dongfang Shuo, who was coming down, screamed, fell on his back, hit the carriage, and the black crown on his head was crooked.Liang Xiao was taken aback and quickly helped him up.Dongfang Shuo rubbed his shoulders and cursed, "I ran so far to save you, why are you treating me like this?"

"Ashamed, ashamed, I really didn't mean it." Liang Xiao hurriedly supported Dongfang Shuo, and teased: "Did you stay too leisurely in Chang'an, so fragile, and I didn't have any strength..."

"You haven't used your strength yet?" Dongfang Shuo narrowed his eyes. "Did your strength increase again? How many crossbows are you using now?"

"I don't know the details, maybe two or three stones." Liang Xiao patted Dongfang Shuo on the shoulder to express his comfort. "Tell me, what trouble do I have, I need to work, you, the great god, came all the way to save me."

"I knew you were stupid." Dongfang Shuo sat up and was about to speak when he suddenly saw the Alpha four who were chasing after him with Tu Niuer and Pang Shuo, and immediately threw Liang Xiao aside. "Hey, these four little beauties are really superb. Liang Xiao, where did you get them, give me two. I'm so loyal, you won't be so stingy?"
