Chapter 619
Beside the hot spring, the bonfire is swaying, and the beauty is sultry.

More than 30 young girls in brocade clothes raised their arms, twisted their waists, and spun rapidly along with cheerful music.The eyes are as nimble as a skylark, the waist and feet are as nimble as a snow leopard, the skirts are flying like flying clouds, and the toes are kicked up, stirring everyone's heartstrings.

Liang Xiao opened his arms, soaked in the hot spring, looked at this winding scenery full of joy but hidden murderous intent, looked at the worried King of Khotan who had to force a smile, and secretly laughed.King Khotan must be in a bad mood at the moment. He is worried that the lure will succeed and that the lure will not succeed.Whether it is successful or not, it is a tragic result for him.

The only difference is how tragic it is.

The theft for several days in a row seems to prove that Dongfang Shuo's trapping plan is approaching success step by step, but they only brought [-] cavalry in total. Even if it includes [-] Han troops, whether they can defeat the enemy that may appear at any time is uncertain. Wang had doubts in his heart.He has personally experienced the war, but he has not seen the combat effectiveness of the Han army with his own eyes. It is normal for him to be worried when things come to an end.

Liang Xiao is full of confidence. Among the two hundred Han armies, there are more than 100 Liang family tribes led by Tu Niuer and Pang Shuo. The skills are remarkable, and with the five archers including Firefox, the combat power is absolutely reliable.The rest of the hundreds of people are also carefully selected Chang'an rangers, and there are more than [-] outstanding archers selected from the ruins of Wu Dan.

These sharp archers may not be as good as Firefox and others, but compared to ordinary archers, their overall strength is definitely much higher.

On the battlefield he chose, with these people, Liang Xiao was confident that he could stop the elite ten times his own. If it was an ordinary bandit, he would have nothing to worry about if they came for three or four thousand.But he would not tell King Tian that it is good to make King Khotan nervous.Allowing him to witness the fighting power of the Han army will be of great help to the Han people in controlling Khotan in the future.

To kill the chicken to warn the monkey, the bandit is the chicken, and the king of Khotan is the monkey.

Dongfang Shuo was wearing a cow-nosed jacket, with his upper body bare, holding a Khotan beauty in one hand, playing in the water.There are many intermarriages between the Nanshan Kingdoms and the Qiang people. Their appearance does not have the obvious Hu nationality characteristics like the Tianshan Kingdoms, but they retain the characteristics of fair skin. These two women are beauties in the royal palace of Khotan. In other words, with big breasts and slender waist, long legs and fat buttocks, after soaking in the hot spring, the clothes are all attached to the body, making people unable to take their eyes off.

Dongfang Shuo hugged left and right, exulting, happy like a fairy.But the King of Khotan, who was close at hand, smiled reluctantly, unwilling to go into the water, wrapped in a leather robe, and looked like he was ready to fight or run for his life at any time.

A guard of Khotan rushed over, and the King of Khotan whispered something in his ear.King Khotan's face changed drastically, he rushed to the hot spring and bowed to Liang Xiao. "General, the bandits are here."

"No rush." ​​Liang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.I am not afraid of you coming, but I am afraid that you will not come. "how many people?"

"It's dark, so I can't see clearly, but judging by the length of the team, it should be no less than five hundred."

"How many tribes have come?"

"It's not confirmed yet, I guess they should all come."

"That's great." Liang Xiao glanced at King Yutian. "Are you nervous?"

King Khotan's cheeks twitched, a bit of embarrassment appeared on his pampered face.He looked at Liang Xiao, Liang Xiao's shoulders were covered with scars, and several penetrating wounds were particularly glaring.Usually, when looking at Liang Xiao, although he was serious, he was not vicious, but looking at Liang Xiao now, even if he smiled gently, with this face, it always made people feel a little scared.

Every scar proves that the young Han soldier in front of him is not a good talker. He has experienced life and death and possesses powerful force.The king of Khotan may not be afraid of bandits, but he must be afraid of Liang Xiao.

However, the king of Khotan could not show his cowardice.He is the king of Khotan, if he is too cowardly, how can he rule in the future.

"Don't worry, with our warriors from the Han army, the king will be safe." Dongfang Shuo walked over, grabbed King Khotan, and dragged him into the water.King Khotan was caught off guard, drank a few sips of water, drenched all over, looked embarrassed and embarrassed.Dongfang Shuo laughed out loud. "What are you doing wearing that? We are honest with you, and you are very wary of us."

"Don't dare, dare not." King Khotan stood up in the water, carrying his wet clothes, ready to climb up.

"Come on, undress the king." Dongfang Shuo beckoned, and called two beauties to strip off King Khotan's clothes, leaving only a pair of trousers.The king of Khotan was in a hurry and had to squat in the water.Unlike Liang Xiao and Dongfang Shuo, he has strong muscles. He is old and his muscles are loose, and he has long since lost the capital to show off.Suddenly being stripped naked by Dongfang Shuo, I really feel ashamed.

Liang Xiao comforted: "Your Majesty, don't worry. Wangshan ran to death. It's midnight now. Wait for the bandits to arrive here, at least half an hour later. We have enough time to prepare. Your Majesty will soak in the hot spring while waiting Watch the show. This time, make sure they pay for what they did."

Wang Qiang of Khotan laughed a few times and had to sit down.

After a while, another guard came to report that some bandits had entered the valley.

After a while, the guards came to report that there were more and more bandits, and the total number may exceed a thousand.They blocked the exit leading to the lake, with the intention of killing everything.

After a while, another guard came to report that bandits also appeared at the exit on the west side of the hot spring.

The king of Khotan's face was ashen.The total number of bandits is nearly two thousand, and they are attacking from east to west, so they want to catch them all at once.If the bandits succeed, the kingdom of Khotan will be destroyed.If Liang Xiao himself was not here, the king of Khotan would almost suspect that Liang Xiao was using a knife to kill people, and he would take the opportunity to capture Khotan.

Liang Xiao smiled and shook his head. "A thief is a thief. Apart from sneaking around, he can't do anything worthwhile. Fighting against such a person is simply an insult to our Han army." He stood up. "Manqian, sit with the king for a while, I will come as soon as I go."

Dongfang Shuo glanced at Liang Xiao. "What's the matter, do you still need to go in person? Find someone to go, let's continue drinking."

Liang Xiao thought for a while, then sat down again. "That makes sense, let's find Guo Wu and Pang Shuo."

A personal guard responded, turned around and left.Liang Xiao turned back into the pool, and the two girls from Khotan immediately came down to greet him with great hospitality.King Khotan's complexion changed drastically.What does this mean, Liang Xiao doesn't go out in person, and let his men go down to deal with these bandits?

"General?"

Liang Xiao saw Khotan's nervousness, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry. I am here to accompany you. If there is any danger, I am willing to use myself as a shield to protect you. Let them handle those trivial matters."

Just as he was talking, Guo Wu and Pang Shuo came in front of him.Liang Xiao said: "Pang Shuo, within a hundred steps, if someone approaches, he will kill him without mercy."

Pang Shuo bowed his hand in response.

"Guo Wu, these bandits are looting, teach them a lesson, so that they will run away when they hear your name in the future."

Guo Wu was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed.He understood what Liang Xiao meant, it was for him to guard Khotan.Khotan is a place of jade production, and it is also an important town in Nanshan. Being able to guard this place is definitely due to Liang Xiao's trust in him.

"Don't worry, Junhou, let's see how we kill the thief."

"Go." Liang Xiao waved his hand, Guo Wu and Pang Shuo turned to leave, but Dongfang Shuo stopped them.He pointed to the girls who were singing and dancing. "Have you seen it clearly? Merit is judged by the first level, and the top [-] in the credit book will be selected in order."

Guo Wu and Pang Shuo glanced at each other, shouted in unison: "Thank you, sir, thank you sir." After speaking, they scrambled to run away.

Pang Shuo had big strides, and the Liang family trilogy he was leading was also very close. Liang Xiao and others heard his roar first: "Brothers, aren't you envious of these girls? The opportunity has come, the king has an order, use the head to judge the merits , the top thirty warriors are selected in order. Can we let these good girls fall into the hands of those beasts?"

Except for some mercenaries from the Western Regions, most of the Liang family's songs are Jiangdu rangers who have done a lot of things like stealing incense and fans. After coming to the Western Regions, the Western Regions women have also seen a lot, but these beauties come from the Khotan Palace. But it is rare for them to meet.When they heard that there was a chance to get one, they laughed and shouted in unison: "No! We have to protect them!"

"That's right, we want to keep them all, so that they won't regret it for the rest of their lives."

"Listen up." Pang Shuo shouted loudly: "Show out your true skills and let the girls see who is the real man."

"it is good!"

"Get it!"

Guo Wu walked more slowly, stood aside with folded arms, watching Pang Shuo boost his morale.After Pang Shuo finished speaking, he looked at him triumphantly, and then smiled. "I'm sorry, brothers, there are differences between inside and outside. You are responsible for guarding the monarch, and you can't leave your post casually."

Upon hearing this, Pang Shuo raised his thick eyebrows. "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is very clear. If you want to decapitate and perform meritorious service, you must first ask whether we agree or not. If we have killed almost all the enemies, no matter how good your skills are, can you still use flying swords to hurt people? "

After speaking, he looked up to the sky and laughed, and walked away.

"Damn it!" Pang Shuo slapped his thigh, dumbfounded. "This...how can this be done?"

Guo Wu returned to his position and explained the whole story, and the guards burst into laughter.Although the origin of these people is complicated, some are Rangers newly recruited by Liang Xiao, some are from Guo Wu's old department, and some are from Wudan's old department that just surrendered, but at this moment, they are fighting against each other and decided not to give Pang Shuo and others a chance to take advantage of it .

"Let them watch us kill the enemy, make meritorious deeds and embrace the beauties, but they can only drool!"

"Okay! Let them not even eat farts."

Successfully motivating morale, Guo Wu immediately deployed his troops.He arranged archers who were good at archery on the hillsides on both sides, and those who were good at fighting on foot in the valley. He led more than ten old troops on horseback, armed with spears, and prepared to charge.The horses of the others also stood behind the battle. As for the Khotan soldiers, he arranged them behind him to watch the battle, and he had no intention of sending them into battle at all.

Everything was ready, half an hour later, a group of more than [-] bandits appeared in front of Guo Wu and the others.Seeing the soldiers of the Han army waiting in full battle, they were all stunned.A sneak attack turned into a strong attack, which dealt a heavy blow to their psychology.If it weren't for the fact that there were only a few dozen soldiers of the Han army standing in formation, they might have turned around and left.

After a moment's hesitation, they attacked.

The Han army remained motionless, dumbfounded, only the old troops of Wudan who had just surrendered were a little nervous, shot two arrows, and were stopped immediately.Guo Wu didn't give the order to shoot until the bandits rushed within more than ten steps, and the messy arrows landed on the shields and oracle bones of the Han infantry.

The archers on the hillsides on both sides are all masters of archery skills. The distance of more than ten steps is no different to them. Even if the light is not good, they can still hit a hundred shots.There is an obvious difference between people with good archery skills and ordinary archers. Instead of covering shooting, they choose more valuable targets as much as possible to maximize the benefit of each arrow.

At this moment, these more than 30 first-class archers all chose those who looked the most ferocious, or those who looked like leaders to shoot. Although the number of kills was limited, the effect was very obvious.

In a few breaths, after a round of shooting, almost everyone shot three to four arrows, and almost all of the more than 100 arrows hit the target, and those warriors who were in charge of commanding or boosting morale with personal force suffered a severe blow , lost more than half.

Seeing their companions fall one by one, the bandits were in chaos. Some continued to charge forward, while others stopped, planning to retreat, or looking for the position of the opponent's archer, planning to fight back.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the infantry lined up brazenly launched a counterattack. They roared and rushed forward.

The bandits were hit head-on, one after another fell in a pool of blood, and the situation became even more chaotic.

Guo Wu immediately seized the opportunity, kicked his horse and began to charge. More than ten knights followed him, bypassed the infantry, and charged towards the bandits.They have been in this valley for a few days, and they have a clear understanding of the terrain here, and even cleaned it up in advance to facilitate the cavalry charge.Once activated at this moment, they are like tigers descending the mountain, unstoppable.

The bandit immediately collapsed, screamed for the sky, turned around and ran away.

Guo Wu didn't rush, he urged the horse to trot, and drove the hundred or so bandits forward.The archers also stepped on their horses, moved closer to Guo Wu, and continued to shoot with their bows and arrows, while the infantry also jumped on their horses and charged after them.

The bandits were flustered, yelled and fled.

The bandits who followed were puzzled when they heard the shouts of killing in front.The original plan was a sneak attack, at least it was a siege with more bullying and less. What I heard should be the horns of the Qiang people taking advantage of the victory and pursuing them, but why now I hear the sound of the war drums of the Han people taking advantage of the victory and pursuing them?

Before they could understand what was going on, the vanquished bandits forward rushed over, and their terrified cries shattered the bandits' dream.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of rumbling horseshoes sounded, and Guo Wu and others killed them wantonly.
