The two sides were far apart, but they could see each other's expressions clearly from a distance. Fan Xian squinted his eyes to confirm the other's departure. He couldn't help but shook his head, and an unstoppable exhaustion welled up in his heart. After being chased and killed by the Xihu pack for three days, the exhaustion of both sides has reached the peak. Now that the other party has given up, of course he will not have any disappointment, only relief.
After waiting for three days, the three-day chase looked more like a house-playing game played by children. It was not very dangerous. Neither side even drew out their knives or shot an arrow. But in fact, they both knew what this pursuit represented and what kind of danger was hidden.
Fan Xian and his party went deep into the hinterland of the grassland, and left in a cool and unrestrained manner. Although they never actually fought, they left a deep shadow in the hearts of the Xihu people. Many years ago, Qing Kingdom's largest border expansion operation was also carried out under the secret leadership of the Overwatch Council. That person named Chen Pingping, until today, is still a legendary symbol of dealing with demons on the grassland, and Fan Xian this time Xihu's trip was a continuation of the excellent tradition of the Overwatch Council. After taking over, he arrogantly inspected the territory.
This time, it was a heavy blow to the spirit of everyone in the grassland. The Xihu royal court wanted to dominate the grassland and compete with Qing, but they couldn't keep a group of people who went deep into the grassland hinterland. It must make them have a clearer judgment on their own strength. It will also make the Xihu tribe, which has been extremely prosperous in the past two years, be more cautious about sending troops.
Xihu Danyu Subida chased for three days in vain, and was forced to turn back depressed. It seemed helpless and sad, but in Fan Xian's eyes, there was something else. The master of the grassland retreated so resolutely, This kind of courage to give up and be able to suppress the warlike temperament of the barbarian cavalry is really an alternative on the grassland.
If this person really dominates the grassland with the help of Haitang, I'm afraid it will really become a serious problem for the Qing Kingdom.
Fan Xian blinked. His long eyelashes were covered with dust. He looked like a native who played with the strong men on the prairie. But he was not very happy. Some lonely and helpless.
"Let's go." He took the reins of the horse and galloped down the meadow under the setting sun, the horses under him were jubilant.
…
…
Although it seemed that Wang Ting's pursuers had retreated, the generals of the black cavalry still did not dare to relax. Who knew if those fierce Xihu people would create an illusion and kill them from the side and rear. On the grassland, the barbarian had the help of the flying eagle, which completely negated the effectiveness of the cylindrical telescope in Fan Xian's hand.
Because of this, the group of people who had escaped from the grassland still did not dare to slow down. They forcibly supported their tired bodies, and urged the war horses that were dripping with sweat to gallop towards the east. It was not until seven days later that the group entered Hongshan Pass that they were truly relieved.
Hongshan is a particularly weird terrain in the east of the grassland. It is completely made of natural piles of earth and rocks. After countless years of north wind blowing, it has been split into isolated peaks. The imperial pens and verdicts in the imperial study room are generally shocking and full of murderous aura.
The road to enter the customs is at the bottom of these red mountains, a path like a sheep's intestines, with twists and turns. Fan Xian walked right in front of the team, took the skin bag Jing Ge handed over, took a sip of water, moistened his sore throat, and said in a hoarse voice: "End of this matter, you must be careful when you return to Beijing." Lie down for two months."
Rusting sounds came from the Red Mountain, as if someone had trampled down the sand and stones on the mountain, Jing Ge couldn't help frowning. Fan Xian knew what he was thinking, so he burst out laughing, but because of his throat problem, the laughter was particularly unpleasant—the Qing Guoxi Army ambushing at the Red Mountain Pass seemed to be extremely exhausted, and they were caught by a group of people like himself. To such an obvious sound.
The sound of horseshoes sounded from the valley in front, and the dusty son Li Hongcheng led the Dingzhou Army to meet him from there. He couldn't help but shook his head, and said, "I said earlier, how could you be fooled by the superheroes of Speed's generation?"
Fan Xian glanced at him and said, "At least I brought him out for six days, and these six days are enough to do something."
"In order to kill those Northern Qi people in the royal court, do you need to be so careful?" Li Hongcheng gave him a disapproving look, confirmed that the kid was unharmed, and then he was relieved, and continued: "Have you ever fought with the Xihu people? "
"No, I just moved my feet."
The teams of the two sides met at one place, and the momentum suddenly rose, and they drove out of the Red Mountain Pass that contained thousands of years of wind and sand in a short time. In order to cover up the news and prevent anyone from reporting to the Xihu Royal Court, there are a total of 8,000 Qing Dynasty elites ambushing at Hongshan Pass along the way. Make big moves.
"We've been waiting here for seven days, but we didn't get anything. Does your Overwatch Council have to give you some explanation?" Li Hongcheng pursed his blistered lips.
"Forget it." Fan Xian clamped the horse's belly lightly, his whole body was sore, and he glared at him, thinking that the ambush at the Red Mountain Pass was just a preparation, who could tell how jealous Shan Yu was? There are still a few days away from Qingzhou, so it is very risky to continue arguing here without going back quickly.
What he cared about was actually the situation in Dingzhou City: "Have you done anything yet?"
"I'll leave before I do anything. All those under your command will be coordinated by the Governor's Mansion. I've issued a military order, so don't worry." Li Hongcheng looked at him and said, "Although I don't know the specifics, but we have received intelligence in the past few days. It should be very smooth, the nails that Bei Qi placed in Dingzhou were basically pulled out by your subordinates."
Fan Xian nodded and didn't say anything more. After this battle, the grassland fell into chaos again. The most important thing is that one of the Overwatch Council entered the grassland and the other scattered in Xiliang Road, successfully burying the Northern Qi people in this vast expanse of land. The spies on the battlefield were wiped out, and Ku He's vicious tactics launched before his death. It took the little emperor of Northern Qi and Haitang two years to construct a good situation, but because of his more vicious and shameless response, it became A bubble.
…
…
Four days later, the Qing Kingdom's elite troops of nearly 10,000 people finally withdrew from the grassland and entered Qingzhou City. This group of troops did not engage in a single battle with Xihu's cavalry, but completely served as the background drawing board for the Overwatch Council's actions. Naturally, their morale was not as high as when they sent out the troops. In addition, after staying in the Red Mountain Pass for too long, It looks like a defeated soldier.
The mental outlook of the Black Cavalry and his party in the Overwatch Council was not much better. If they hadn't wanted to save face for Fan Xian, they would have fallen to the ground and fell asleep immediately.
As soon as they entered Qingzhou City, Fan Xian immediately ordered the black cavalry to rest, and Jing Ge followed the order, but they couldn't take a bath and eat right away. First of all, they had to take good care of the hundreds of horses specially trained by the Overwatch Council. The medicine in the son's body had already begun to reverse, and he was about to be unable to hold on. If he didn't treat it quickly, he might die soon.
These hundreds of human-like military horses are the saviors of the Black Riders of the Overwatch Council. No one wants to see them end up in a miserable situation, but everyone knows that after this time of galloping for thousands of miles, these black horses will never be seen again. Unable to recover the original divine horse, I can't help but feel a little sad in my heart.
Fan Xian followed the army of the West Camp, and met the suspicious eyes from both sides of the road in Qingzhou City. Those soldiers and merchants guessed the identity of this young man, and naturally guessed that the imperial court must have carried out a big move on the grassland. , Just looking at the exhausted and listless appearance of the Dingzhou army, everyone thought that the imperial court's action on the grassland had failed, so the eyes they cast were a little weird.
Fan Xian and Li Hongcheng had just entered the Qingzhou military office, and Ye Linger, who received the news, rushed back from the city wall, rushed into the back room, pushed open the door, and said angrily: "You think you are a fairy?" How dare you go deep into the grassland with such a few people, and you are not afraid that the barbarians will swallow you alive!"
Ye Linger had her own reasons to be angry, because although Fan Xian went deep into the grassland this time, although he didn't lose anything, he actually took a big risk, and he didn't cherish his own life so much. Ye Linger became angry when he thought of this. On my mind, what would Lin Waner do if Fan Xian died on the grassland? What about those two kids
As Lin Wan'er's handkerchief, she had every reason to criticize Fan Xian's reckless actions the most severely. Of course, there was another reason for her anger, that is, Fan Xian didn't come to see her when she came to Qingzhou City, and she kept such a big matter from herself.
Fan Xian was stunned for a moment, looking at the young lady of the Ye family who broke in through the mist, his eyes subconsciously shifted from the light armor on her body to the familiar and pretty face, his heart was slightly moved, knowing that the other party was indeed Concerned about my own safety, just...
"Looking at your appearance, you want to swallow me alive more than barbarians." He said with a sad face, "Princess, Hongcheng and I have no clothes on, you shouldn't be in such a hurry, can you?"
After entering the Qingzhou military yamen, Fan Xian and Li Hongcheng, who were covered in sandstorms and sore all over, were extremely exhausted. Relying on their power and status, they immediately prepared two large buckets of hot water for the yamen. A woman broke in, and the identity of this woman was so special.
Ye Ling'er grew up in the Dingzhou Army since she was a child. She has a hot temperament and is quite different from ordinary women. After hearing Fan Xian's words, she realized that Fan Xian and Li Hongcheng were naked and shrunk into a big wooden barrel Li, especially these two people, still had a deliberate shy look on their faces, which was very hateful.
On the contrary, she was neither ashamed nor annoyed, she just spat at her feet, turned around and walked out gracefully.
…
…
King Zuoxian was assassinated on the grassland, and something happened to the royal court, which will surely fall into chaos. Li Hongcheng, as the head of the army stationed in Xiliang Road of the Qing Dynasty, must quickly report the matter to the capital, and at the same time return to Dingzhou to sit in the camp and deploy troops to deal with the latest changes in the situation on the grassland. So the next day, he left Qingzhou.
But Fan Xian stayed, not because of the beautiful scenery in Qingzhou, not because of Ye Linger, but because he had to wait for a few people to come back before he could truly feel at ease.
After several days, the Central Plains caravan that Fan Xian mixed into finally returned to Qingzhou City covered in dust and dust. Calculating the time, this caravan was really traveling extremely fast. The road the caravan took on its return journey was not the same as Fan Xian's retreat, and instead missed the thrilling pursuit.
Seeing the caravan returning safely, Fan Xian felt a little more relaxed. He had always been worried that because of the actions of the Overwatch Council, these businessmen from the Central Plains would become the target of revenge by the barbarians. Unexpectedly, the barbarians could still hold back from attacking the caravan under the rage. It seems that Haitang's education on the grassland in the past two years and Shan Yu's determination of the future have affected many people.
Immediately afterwards, a lonely shepherd who lost his cattle and sheep and could not survive on the grassland also entered Qingzhou City, but no one knew that during the past six months, this lonely shepherd played the role of a man who used to bend over dumb servant.
The shadow also returned safely, and Fan Xian's heart was more than half relieved, but Wang Shisanlang had never heard from him, and he didn't know what was going on, which made him very worried. This trip to the grassland was a huge conspiracy. Although the Overwatch Council was used to dealing with all enemies with insidious means, any means needed a strong executor.
Today's Fan Xian, he himself is a powerful master, and he has shadows under his command. If it weren't for these extremely terrifying killers, even if he lures Haitang and Shanyu away, it would be impossible for him to achieve the goal set by the Overwatch Council.
The Northern Qi people in the royal court were dealt with by shadows, while Zuo Xianwang, who was bound to die, needed another strong man. Fan Xian had always had a headache here. There were only a dozen or so top masters in the world until a long time later. , he tentatively sent an invitation to Wang Shisanlang through Baoyue Tower.
After the Dadongshan incident, Shisanlang Wang has been serving Sigujian who was seriously injured and dying in the Jianlu of Dongyi City, but Sigujian was miraculously dragged on, so Shisanlang never appeared in front of people's eyes again. Although Fan Xian and Wang Shisanlang had an agreement two years ago, he didn't know if the agreement was valid now, so this invitation was just a test.
But Thirteenth Wang didn't reply a single word to this invitation, he left Dongyi City directly, came to the capital of Qing Kingdom, and found Fan Xian.
Fan Xian, Ying Ying, and Wang Shisanlang, the three masters went deep into the grasslands and performed their duties. In terms of the executive power represented by the top masters, the Overwatch Council today is even more terrifying than when Chen Pingping was in power.
It was precisely because of Wang Shisanlang's arrival that Fan Xian made up his mind to enter the grassland. Because this person's identity was too special, Fan Xian didn't want the palace to have too much suspicion of him, so he deliberately concealed his identity along the way, just took him into the caravan, and then separated.
He still didn't want to understand why Wang Shisanlang was willing to continue the agreement that year when Si Gu Jian was beaten into a crippled idiot by the emperor Lao Tzu. He didn't have time to think about this, he only hoped that Thirteenth Wang would return safely after assassinating Queen Xihu Zuoxian.
Several days later, Fan Xian finally got the news he had been looking forward to for a long time. To be precise, everyone knew about Thirteenth Wang's return. Because it was different from the shadow's quiet return, the return of the thirteen sword hut disciples shocked the entire Qingzhou city.
On that day, the scorching sun hung high in the sky, shining on Qingzhou City, basking in the fierce autumn wind without any temper at all. The green bricks at the city gate seemed to be smoking, and a bloody man walked into Qingzhou City just like that. city gate.
The soldiers in Qingzhou City looked at the blood man vigilantly, and surrounded him with spears in their hands. They were shrouded in chill and murderous intent emanating from the blood man, feeling fearful in their hearts.
This man was wearing a fur jacket of a barbarian. If a leather jacket with more than 30 cuts was considered a leather jacket, countless blood seeped out from the holes in those leather jackets, congealed, spread, and mushy. covered his whole body.
I don't know how long this bloody man has been walking on the grassland, those bloody wounds have begun to fester, and flies and mosquitoes are flying around him, looking very miserable.
The Qingzhou garrison didn't know who this person was, but they only knew that it must be no ordinary person who was able to walk out of the grassland after suffering such a serious injury.
The man opened his eyes, with blood bubbles all over his lips, and said to the sergeants surrounding him, "Tell Fan Xian that what I promised him has been done."
After receiving the news, Fan Xian rushed to him and supported him. Looking at the wound on his body, he was filled with chills. He was responsible for leading Shan Yu and Hai Tang for this operation on the grassland. After all, it was impossible for Hai Tang to treat him As for the killer, and the shadow acted quietly, the risk was not too great. The most difficult part was Wang Shisanlang's assassination of Zuo Xianwang.
Fan Xian didn't know how Thirteenth Wang killed the powerful King Zuo Xian in the Lian Mian Hu camp, but he only knew that what the other party promised him had been perfectly completed.
He hugged Wang Shisanlang who had passed out, and returned to the military office. He began to treat the warrior with a silent face. Who was the official of the Overwatch Council who chopped more than 30 knives? How can you survive like this
