Needless to say Liya's situation. She finally stuck and refused to come down immediately. The solidified blood stains can be vaguely seen on the pink dress. Even sister Kleia swayed after getting off the horse. The whole body seemed to be broken apart. Although the soldiers of the Han army were equally tired. But with stirrups. When running fast. They can stand up as a whole. You can relax your legs a little bit. It won't be very hard.
Liu Xin saw Liya's painful look. I also feel a little intolerable. My own approach may be a bit too much. Could not help stepping forward. I want to help her off the horse. The stubborn Liya glared at him fiercely. Insist on getting down by yourself. Liu Xin shook his head helplessly. Sister Kleia had to take care of her.
Just one day. Although the two sisters still don't speak Chinese. But I can already understand Liu Xin's meaning through gestures. Actually. As a gladiator. It requires more than brute force. More courage and wisdom are needed. If the Kleia sisters are not smart enough. It will never survive now.
The endurance of the gladiator is indeed much stronger than that of ordinary people. Sister Kleia only moved slightly. The walking posture returned to normal. It's just that the action is a little slow. but. Compared to Liya. That is a world of difference.
Although Liya was very strong in front of Liu Xin. But he did not reject the kindness of the two female gladiators. Obediently let them help them get off the horse. indeed. Without their support. Liya has no way to get down by herself today.
Liu Xin ignored them. Walked into the big account on his own. Because there is another battle report on the front line. This is the focus of your attention.
Down overnight. The battle reports continue. Although the battle report was delivered in the form of a meteor and a horse. But Liu Xin and the others also marched eight hundred miles. and so. Meteor and Kuai Ma couldn't catch up. These things on the battle report happened three days ago. The news is a bit lagging. But it's all good news.
The Xianbei army's attack on Daling failed. Turned to attack Qixian and suffered heavy losses. Has temporarily retreated to Taiyuan. In a short time, I was unable to go south.
After Guan Yu got the trebuchet and reinforcements. It only took half a day to conquer Neihuang. Jiang Qi was captured. Take it to Chang'an. The grain and grass in the inner yellow city now belong to the Han army.
The 300,000 Yuan Jun infantry aided by Li Yang fell into a heavy siege 80 miles south of Yecheng. Although Yu Yi's camp was well organized. But there is no food. There is no rescuer outside. Destruction is only a matter of time.
If Liu Xin is in Chang'an at this time. He will definitely order the mobilization of armored cavalry to make a final blow to the besieged Yuan Jun. No matter how strong Nyu Yi's camp is. After all, it is not a city. Under the impact of the armored cavalry, they will be powerless. But Liu Xin is now thousands of miles away from Chang'an. Wait for his order to reach Chang'an. Then spread to the front line. Maybe the battle is over.
The only news that worries Liu Xin. It was Cao Cao that finally moved. Cao Cao did not send his troops north to rescue Yuan Shao. Rather, the troops moved westward. The sword refers to Luoyang. This area is the defense zone of the Fourth Army. But the main force of the Fourth Army has been transferred to Taiyuan to stop the Xianbei army from going south. There are only 10,000 soldiers guarding Hulao Pass. They have to face Cao Cao's 300,000 army alone. Can you hold it? Liu Xin really didn't have much in his heart. I can only hope for Ma Yun's temporary dispatch.
the next day. Liu Xin failed to continue the march. It is very close to the border here. Dawan is just outside the fortress of Uzbeli. Continue west from Dawan to reach Kangju. Before the team departs. He needs to do two things.
The first is to communicate with Dawan. Twenty thousand troops passed through other people's land. And last year there was a war between the two sides. If you don’t communicate in advance. It is likely to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
The second is to send people to Kangju. Ask Queen Kangju about Kangju's domestic situation. After all, it has been a month since Cai He left Kangju. One month is not long. It's not short. Anything can happen. Just rushed in. It's not just about whether you can help Queen Kangju. It is also related to the life and death of 20,000 Han soldiers.
All Liu Xin brought with him were soldiers. There is no talent for diplomacy. But before departing from Chang'an. He sent someone to inform Jia Xu. The Tokyo Prefecture will send people to accomplish the above two things. All he had to do was wait for the news in Wuji City.
There is no wall in Wuji City. But the scale has expanded greatly. Four verticals, four horizontals and eight avenues. Divide the entire city into square areas. There are many shops on both sides of the road. Only a year of effort. Wuji City, which was originally a small oasis in the desert, now has a permanent population of nearly 100,000. These people are Han Chinese. There are people from the Western Regions. There are also people from Dawan, Wusun, Kangju and other countries around the Western Regions. There are even merchants from Daqin.
Except for shops in the city. There are also many inns, brothels and pubs. Because there are many caravans going north and south. Many people want to stay and eat in the city every day. Business people far from home also need to have some fun. therefore. Whether it’s an inn, a pub or a brothel. Business is booming.
Wuji City is not under the jurisdiction of Shule Kingdom. It is under the jurisdiction of the Han people themselves. Taxes are also all owned by the Han court. and so. An official post house also opened in Wuji City. It is specially designed for officials and foreign envoys who come on business.
Although the conditions in the post house are much better. But Liu Xin and the others did not live in. Instead, they chose to camp outside the city. This is not because it was late when Liu Xin and the others came to Wuji City. You know it's a city that never sleeps right now. Even in the middle of the night. The streets are also crowded with people.
Liu Xin chose to live outside the city. On the one hand, I don't want to disturb the people in the city. On the other hand, it is also considered from the safety aspect. There are hundreds of thousands of people in the city. A mixed bag. Everyone has it. It is inevitable that there will be other spies. It's better during the day. But it must be at night.
right now. The envoys sent by Jia Xu to Dawan and Kangju have not yet returned. Liu Xin couldn't move on. Simply decided to go to Wuji City in the morning.
I heard that Liu Xin was going to bring several guards into the city. Sisters Kleia and Maria even said in blunt Chinese: "Master. I will go too."
Liu Xin couldn't help being surprised. Unexpectedly, their ability to learn languages is so strong. It was almost comparable to Hou Qinu. If Hou Qinu was here. Give them a little training. Maybe they can already communicate simply in Chinese. Seeing the look of expectation of the sisters. Liu Xin couldn't bear to refuse. Nodded. Said: "Go and see Princess Loulan. If she wants to go. Just take her with her."
Liya followed the team on the way. Really suffered a lot. Liu Xin also felt a little embarrassed. It is said that shopping is a woman's nature. Liu Xin planned to take her to Wuji City for a walk. I heard that there are good things from all over the world. Even Liu Xin wanted to see it.
There are only three women in the whole team. The two female gladiators did not know that Liu Xin had an amazing martial arts. They recognized Liu Xin, the master. Wholeheartedly protect the Lord. Insist on following Liu Xin's side. Even sleep in that big tent at night.
Of course Liya can't sleep here. She has a small tent next to Liu Xin's big tent. Because of Liu Xin's persistence. She failed to take the maid with her. Liu Xin made a two-handed plan. While trying to embarrass her. Let her retreat. Return to Minni City early. If she insists on following. It's not a bad thing. Regardless of whether you can encounter the black whirlwind. Liu Xin is ready to tell her the truth.
Liu Xin opened the tent door. I saw Liya lying on her back on her sleeping bag. The two long legs are wide open in a figure eight. The posture is very inelegant.
Hani asked Liya to follow Liu Xin's intentions. Liu Xin understands naturally. But Liya is only fourteen or five years old. Not a few years older than Liu Xin's daughter. In Liu Xin's eyes, she was treated like a child. See this scenario. Can't help frowning. The lesson: "Close your legs."
Huren women are open-minded. Do not pay attention to these subsections. Liya looked up at Liu Xin. But there is no action. But Kleia hurriedly walked over. He picked up a blanket and covered Liya's lower body. Maria uses both hands and feet. Grumblingly explained to Liu Xin.
Probably because of the same woman. The two female gladiators were very fierce towards Liu Xin's guards. But she was quite cherish for Liya. Helped Liya into the tent last night. It stayed for a while before returning to Liu Xin.
It took a while. Liu Xin just figured it out. It turned out that both of Liya's thighs were worn out. If they are close together, they will affect the wound and cause piercing pain. And it is not conducive to wound healing. So Liya can only maintain this indecent posture. I blamed her just now.
Liu Xin felt a little guilty. I just want her to retreat. I didn't want to hurt her like this. He couldn't help but walked over and asked with concern: "How is it. Have you ever been on medicine?"
It's okay if he doesn't ask. This question. Liya's tears flowed down. Soon I couldn't cry. I cried for a while.
Liu Xin asked strangely: "Does it hurt?"
Liya's cries grew louder. After a long while, Fang choked, "Da Hong is dead."
Liu Xin was taken aback. Asked: "Who is Dahong."
Liya wiped her tears. Said: "Dahong has followed me since I was a child. It is exhausted."
Liu Xin just reacted. It turned out that the chestnut red horse she was riding died. Although the horses of the Western Regions are tall and powerful. Strong explosive power. But the endurance is not enough. Long-distance running for a day and a half in a row. It's not bad to be able to stick to the end.
but. The death of this horse also has a great relationship with Liu Xin. Liu Xin became embarrassed. Said: "Okay. Don't cry. Wait until Dawan. I will let King Dawan give you a hard-earned BMW."
Liya sighed suddenly. Said: "I can't ride a horse. I can't go with you all the time. You can send me back to the mud."
