Chapter 314 The Thunder on the Wasteland
The weather in the wilderness is a bit unpredictable, the golden light suddenly appears in the morning, and the sky turns to blue-gray at dusk, and a drizzle is coming.

Under the clouds that were brewing rain, the horses galloped across the field, and the original silver armor had already been stained with dirt and filth.

When night fell, the flames burned fiercely, reflecting the figures of these galloping horses. The cold light cut through the felt tents made of fur, and the screams of women and children came from inside, and the sounds of panic came from inside. After running out, the figure on horseback bent his bow and set an arrow, the arrow galloped away, and the figure fell down immediately.

The cavalry divided into several squads in an orderly manner, interspersed back and forth between the felt tents, cut the entire tribe of hundreds of people into small pieces, roared with barbaric voices, and Cheng Chumo kept adjusting the positions of each squad in the queue.The scene in front of them unknowingly reminded these soldiers of the scene when the Han people far away on the border were raging wildly.

The light of vengeance in the eyes flourished, and the blood in the chest boiled, and the light of the cold blade illuminated every frightened face in the firelight, and the blood light flooded the entire tribe.

The intertwined torrents continued to shrink as the horseshoes ran, and the young men of the tribe swung the blades of their spears for the final struggle, and the back of their necks were cut open, spraying hot blood and splashing in the flames, making a chirping sound.

Wolf-like wolf riders tore apart the entire tribe, and then engulfed them one by one.

Li Xian walked up to this bloody Shura hell, stepping on the bloody water step by step.

"Clean up the battlefield! Pull back the arrows!"

"Hungry for three days, eat a full meal tonight, don't choke!"

Leading the horse and walking over, its huge hooves sank into the soil, squeezed out red liquid, and stopped beside Li Xian.

Li Xian's gaze followed the corpses spread out on the ground to the end, and he narrowed his eyes.

"Is it resolved?"

"Let some old people, women and children go out, and let out the news that the entire grassland was slaughtered. We need someone to go and inform the Tuyuhun army in Lingzhou."

Cheng Chu grinned silently by his side, and stretched out a finger to gesture in the air. In his vision, the soldiers took the arrows from the corpse and stabbed the surviving barbarian.

"Less than [-]% of the elderly, women and children."

"These beasts are active. Not long after the Tuyuhun army fought against Liangzhou, they captured the Han people on the front line and used them as slaves."

"This hundred-member tribe alone hoarded no less than two hundred slaves. It seems that some people were picked up by other tribes, presumably when our compatriots were treated as cattle and sheep, traded or shared the spoils."

Gritting his teeth, the muscles in his cheeks swelled for a moment, Li Xian's gaze sank, and he waved his arms.

"The rescued people, let them take care of the cattle and sheep, and head towards Longyou of the Tang Dynasty. The land of Liangzhou will definitely send troops to pursue them."

"For the young and strong who are willing to stay, tell them to hide in the direction of the king's city. We need to have the strength to send them back to the treasures we have collected by then."

After a pause, Li Xian led the horse and continued to walk forward, saying.

"Everyone was given a bow and told them not to go to revenge on their own, lest they be caught again and lose their lives."

Beside the fire, the cavalry of a hundred men had already sat in a circle, tearing the dried beef kumiss found in the yurt in their hands.

There was still a burnt smell in the felt tent that had been extinguished, and the bloody smell from the fresh blood on the grass did not affect their feasting in the slightest.

"This beef is very strong. I didn't expect that the first time I ate it was in a foreign land. Speaking of it, we enjoyed the blessing with Li Canjun."

"The meat is good, but the wine is too bad. It smells like sheep. Could it be the collected sheep urine?"

"Can't you take care of the new compatriots? How do you let them talk?"

The soldiers who sat with the Han slaves comforted the people and used the words they were familiar with when they were used to these bloody scenes. The people cooked horse meat.

The smell of fresh broth permeated the air, and those citizens who retched while watching the bloody scene were gradually attracted by the smell, and their mouths were filled with saliva.

Taking back the Tang knives for cutting meat, the soldiers handed the horse meat from Xinsheng to the yellow and emaciated people first.While prevaricating, he boasted that he had killed all the way, and eating these were commonplace meals that were a bit greasy, which brought tears to the eyes of the Han slaves.

Stopping to hear these rather familiar words, Li Xian's lips parted slightly, wanting to say something bold to these disheveled citizens.But when he saw the tormented eyes looking at the sword, he dodged in fear, his mouth opened slightly, then closed again.Just followed the crowd and smiled.

Standing in front of a complete felt tent with his hands behind his back, Li Xian stood with his hands behind his back. The night wind blew the fluff on his collar, and he took a bowl of broth from the soldier.Suddenly, my heart moved, and I took out a small package of things wrapped in oiled paper from the pocket of my close-fitting jacket.

Cheng Chumo brought a bowl of broth, leaning on the felt tent with his back, standing next to Li Xian on the lower left, watching Li Xian break off a handful of sticky salt and sprinkle it into the bowl, he smiled and handed over the pottery bowl in his hand .

"Brother Li is a carefree and carefree man, but he never forgets to bring salt when he goes out."

"It's been a long time since I had a meal, the dishes you made."

He squeezed a pinch of salt and put it into Cheng Chumo's bowl. The latter stirred the soup with his fingers and tasted it in his mouth.

"This is the right taste, a bit like our soup in Datang."

After the words fell, Qin Huaidao also squeezed in with a bowl in his hands, handed the bowl to Li Xian, raised his eyebrows, and motioned for some for himself, before picking up the words just now.

"We, brother Li, will enjoy it, and don't forget to have some delicious food in this foreign country."

After finishing speaking, he sat down next to Li Xian, took a sip, and let out a contented ah.

Hearing the words of the two people around him, Li Xian took a sip without hesitation, leaned against the railing behind him slowly, and sighed softly.

"Now our happy dream is shattered, and we can no longer live a life like that of Tang Dynasty."

"Based on our current situation, it can be regarded as survival in the cracks. Even though releasing the news can relieve the pressure on the front line, we can be regarded as wolves in the front and tigers in the back. We can't be sloppy for a moment."

"That's right, the slaughtered tribe will definitely cause a lot of trouble in the Tuyuhun army, which is very likely to cause the army to disintegrate. This is a good thing, but if Fu Yun's troops return to the court, the wasteland will be in danger. "

From the corner of the eye, Cheng Chumo, who was also leaning on the railing, had a look of sadness in his eyes. Li Xian smiled, looking up at the scattered drizzle in the sky.

There was no light at all in the pitch-black sky, and there seemed to be lightning rolling between the clouds in the distance.

After looking at the area in the east for a long time, Li Xian suddenly smiled and murmured.

"It's raining……"

"It should be after the Waking of Insects, right?"

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao also looked up at the area in the east, were stunned, and responded with a voice.

"Yes!"

"It's almost half an hour since I came out of the imperial city without knowing it..."

"I don't know how the battle on the front line is going, and I don't know whether the mother of the imperial city is still healthy..."
