When night fell, Xue Shao and his team rushed out of the city gate of Shuozhou like a gust of wind. Wherever they went along the way, all the city gates were opened.

Although there are only a hundred cavalry, the majesty is as powerful as a surging rushing wave, like thousands of troops and thousands of horses.

Cheng Wuting stood at the gate of the Great Wall, watching Xue Shao's team disappear quickly in the darkness of the night. His face was tense and his heart was like a huge stone pressing on him, and he could hardly breathe.

"General, why not stop him?" Cheng Wuting, the deputy general who knew the inside story, whispered.

"No one can stop him." Cheng Wuting said, "Can you really treat him as a coach?"

"The subordinate knows." The deputy general whispered, "But now at this critical moment, if he makes any mistakes, the general's fate and future..."

Cheng Wuting raised his hand and signaled him to swallow the words behind. Of course, he knew what the deputy general said was "juncture".

The queen suddenly gave her an olive branch. No matter what Cheng Wuting thought, the reality was that he could only accept it. Cheng Wuting's son Cheng Qizhi sent a message from the queen from Chang'an, "please" Cheng Wuting helps to "take care of" Xue Shao.

The implication is quite obvious. First, we must ensure that Xue Shao's life is safe, and second, we must make achievements and achieve merits together, advance and retreat together, honor and disgrace together.

At first, Cheng Wuting was very upset when he received such a "verbal message" and was a little disdainful. In his opinion, a noble young man like Xue Shao, who was spoiled by a noble family, would not understand military affairs? It was nothing more than the Queen of Heaven sent to the army to monitor Pei Xingjian, and made some military achievements. After returning to the court, he was promoted with a legitimate reputation. The Queen of Heaven's daughter, Princess Taiping, naturally wanted to be more glorious, and it would be a "big hero" who was popular.

When he met Xue Shao, Cheng Wuting realized that he was completely wrong.

Xue Shao is more eager to make contributions than Cheng Wu. Moreover, he is definitely not an embroidered pillow for "military merits". Cheng has been playing the "Fight of Flags" for twenty or thirty years, and was captured by someone for the first time in his life.

Based on this alone, Xue Shao is definitely an extraordinary person!

"A tough character!" Cheng Wuting couldn't help but spit out these three words.

The deputy general whispered from the side: "General, we have to make some plans in advance now. If he succeeds, what will the general? What should he do if he fails or even dies?"

"The worst case is nothing more than what it is now." Cheng Wuting said with his eyebrows tightly, "Maybe I, Cheng, deserve to be on the frontier for the rest of my life."

"I'm afraid it will be worse..." The deputy general was very worried, "Although Xue Shao issued a military order, saying that life and death are not related to anyone's business. But the order is the order, love is the love. If Princess Taiping loses her lover, the consequences..."

Cheng Wu smiled indifferently, "So what can I do? I had already thought of this level at the pre-war meeting, so I tried my best to block his mouth and prevent him from taking risks. But he said 'I insist' three times in a row. At that time, I knew that he had absolutely thoughts in his heart, and definitely not come to the army to play. So I knew that I, Cheng, could not even dare to stop him. If I used tough measures to stop him from sending troops, it seemed to be for his own good and avoid him taking risks. But in fact, I was equivalent to directly erasing his chance to stand out. Haha, that result is probably not much better than Princess Taiping's loss of her lover. So--I would rather bet!"

The deputy general suddenly realized and hurriedly said, "So, Xue Shao is determined to make some extraordinary achievements and go back?... But why? His identity is so noble, and he will become Princess Taiping's son-in-law, what's the use of military achievements?"

"We are the rough people who cannot understand the thoughts of the royal family and nobles. We cannot understand the subtleties in the court. I only know that Xue Shao is not a fool, and he will not have a good life of spending money for no reason. However, he has to run into the army to suffer, and now he is joking about his life." Cheng Wuting said, "If he fails this mission or even dies in the desert, it will be his fate. Cheng can only follow the bad luck and has no choice. If he really makes a great contribution..."

"how?"

Cheng Wuting showed a bitter smile and shook his head gently, "Perhaps Cheng's thirty-year military career in the frontier is coming to an end."

"The general said that if Xue Shao made this extraordinary achievement, the queen of heaven would summon you back to the court?"

Cheng Wuting nodded and said, "Xue Shao is the son-in-law and confidant of the Queen of Heaven, and is also an extremely smart person. According to common examples in the army, if Xue Shao's surprise attack can be successful, it will be a contribution made under my 'command', and naturally I, the chief marching officer of the Shuofang Dao, will I not be able to do anything against the common sense to reward only my subordinates and not the chief? In this way, whether Cheng is willing or not, he can only return to the court with Xue Shao to receive rewards and accept the favors of the Queen of Heaven."

The deputy general suddenly realized and said in surprise: "In this way, is the queen intentionally bound you and Xue Shao together?"

"You actually know?" Cheng Wu smiled bitterly, "The prince of the royal noble is hard to serve. Unexpectedly, Xue Shao is still a tough character who dares to bet on his life. There is no way, Cheng can only gamble with him!"

"This is called wealth and honor in danger?"

"I'm just begging for the sake of the weather!" Cheng Wuting cursed, "I would rather attack Heisha by myself. Success or failure lies at least in my own control. Now, my success or failure, life and death, the rise and fall of the Cheng family, all depend on Xue Shao - fate is controlled by others. This feeling is really bad!"

"Report—General!" A guard ran over quickly, looking a little in a hurry.

Cheng Wuting didn't scold people, but was a little surprised. He knew very well what kind of quality these war-torn guards around him were. It was definitely not an ordinary thing to "panic" them!

"explain!"

"General An is gone! A cavalry brother who was on duty was knocked out and threw him in the woodshed. His armor and weapons were gone! I guess..."

Cheng Wuting almost jumped up, "Food bucket!!"

"Close all city gates quickly and find Miss An!"

"Don't chase him out, otherwise..." Cheng Wuting almost didn't dare to think down, and slapped his forehead, regretting that he had not taken the Yuenu prison earlier.

He knew that with Yuenu's temperament and her feelings for Xue Shao, she probably had chased Xue Shao out of the Great Wall for a long time!

Xue Shao and his group left the city gate and galloped northward. There was a completely desolate Gobi, not to mention the crowds, there were even fewer plants and trees. The Great Wall has been standing for thousands of years, and it has always been a "military forbidden zone" near this area, so it is impossible for anyone to grazed. Even some grasslands were manually eliminated in the past. Every year, it was set fire to a fire for thousands of years, and it was naturally desolate.

The capital of the northern nomadic Khanate was called "Ya Tank". After Ah Funian called himself Khan, he set up the Ya Tank in Heisha City, in the northeast of Shuozhou.

In order to avoid encountering the Turkic army that traveled between Heisha and Yunzhou, Xue Shao could only lead the team to detour, traveling one or two hundred miles across the vast Gobi Desert that was a hundred miles away, and then turn to the dock to attack Heisha.

In such an environment, the temperature difference between day and night is extremely large, and it is difficult to deal with. It looks the same everywhere in the desert, and it is especially easy to lose direction, especially at night.

But Xue Shao has no other strengths, and his sense of direction is definitely at the "world-class" level. Otherwise, he would have been buried in the belly of wild beasts countless times in the primitive jungle of South America where the sun was shrouded in the sun.

More than a hundred people in a group followed Xue Shao at a very fast speed. They chose good horses, and each of them rode and led one. They kept changing horses in the middle to maintain the strength of the horses. The previous horse skills were really in vain. Everyone did not need to stop changing horses in the middle, but they turned over and jumped and changed, just like a monkey jumping in the woods.

Xue Shao beat the front leader, Xue Chuyu's horse was the fastest, so he was at the end or swam on the left and right sides to prevent someone from falling behind, falling off the horse or other emergencies. After about thirty miles, Xue Chuyu suddenly caught up with Xue Shao, "The coach of the brigade, there is a tail behind!"

Xue Shao frowned, "We have just left Shuozhou, and this is still the sphere of influence of the Tang army. How could there be a tail to keep up with us?...How many people?"

"It seems to be just one!"

Xue Shao was stunned at first, then suddenly became stunned in his heart, "Send the order, stop!"

Xue Shaore's horse began to run in an arc, and Xue Chuyu lowered his horse speed and started to send a message to the horse team to stop from behind. The cavalry team must stop like this, otherwise they would be killed and injured in the front and back, and they would be defeated.

"Go on the crossbow!——As long as I order, don't shoot arrows at will!"

"promise!"

Even if there is only one "tail", if you are marching outside, you will be cautious and take action. Xue Shao ordered all the staff to be on guard.

More than a hundred cavalry cloths formed a large fan shape. If the enemy scouts chased from behind, they would fall into everyone's range.

A cavalry rushed over, and the visibility was extremely poor in the night. The cavalry chased him very quickly and seemed not to notice that the horse team in front suddenly stopped. It was also a pity that Xue Shao and others were acting too quickly. In a flash, they changed from galloping to silent hiding, and they formed a fan-shaped ambush state.

After three months of hard practice, the true chapters are seen everywhere.

The rider rushed over, unprepared and very anxious, and even seemed a little reckless.

Xue Shao shook his head, "It's not an enemy scout. Chu Yu, you want to live!"

Xue Chuyu inserted Fang Tian Hua Ji to the ground, and suddenly grabbed the horse's belly. The man and the horse suddenly popped out like a compressed spring, jumping three feet away and shooting towards the horse!

Like a shell!

The soldiers opened their horizons again. When facing the enemy, Xue Chuyu finally took out real skills. This riding technique alone can be called shocking. People and horses are like they are integrated into one mind!

The two riders were about to collide together, Xue Chuyu controlled the strength and speed just right. The two horses rushed toward each other very fast, and the other party could not react at all in the flash. Xue Chuyu only needed to reach out, and the knight on the horse would definitely be able to capture it.

Capturing the enemy generals alive immediately is just a "basic skill" for a "peak warrior" like him.

Just when Xue Chuyu stretched out his arm and was about to catch the knight, the other party was not at all surprised and panicked. He reacted very quickly and whipped up at Xue Chuyu's face. Xue Chuyu's eyebrows sank and changed his moves in an instant. He grabbed the tail of the whip with one hand and pulled it hard, following the horse's rushing force to pull the other party off the horse.

He is quite confident in his strength!

As a result, Xue Chuyu did it. The other party was indeed lifted away from the saddle, but did not fall directly to the ground. Instead, he soared into the air with the pulling force, and his feet stomped on the saddle and floated up like a kite.

With a angrily shout, the knight actually kicked Xue Chuyu's head in the air.

Xue Chuyu shrank his head and avoided it. He was slightly surprised. Good kung fu!

The knight threw the whip and fell to the ground, rolled several times in a row, and bounced it up, and the sword was unsheathed with a "bang"!

When Xue Shao heard the knight's shout, his heart was already cold!

"Damn it, you can't stop yet!"
Chapter completed!
