Rouyue felt very helpless towards her father's request. Isn't it just a strange-looking frog? Is it more important that the camp is surrounded by heavy troops?
In order to attract the attention of the Hun King, Rou Yue hid the snow toad behind her back, shook the note in her hand and said: "You should take a look at this first, human life is a matter of great importance!"
The Hun King then took the note and after reading the words on it, he said in surprise: "Are we surrounded?"
"It should be true!" Rou Yue analyzed: "The King of Baishan has been coveting your position as father for more than a day or two. I heard before we set off that he was ready to make a move. He only brought a thousand personal guards with him on this hunting trip. It must feel like a good opportunity!”
The Hun King nodded, but he immediately frowned and said, "Why are the characters on the note written in the Central Plains?"
There is only one explanation, and it must be the Central Plains man. Not only was he not dead, he also sent information.
Rou Yue thought of this the first time she saw the note, but the situation was urgent and she could not think too much. Otherwise, she would have people find Ji Jie first, and then come to see the Hun King.
"Let father see the snow toad!"
Rou Yue almost fell to the ground. What time has it been? There is a powerful enemy at hand. If you don't quickly make arrangements to defend against the enemy, you have to watch a frog.
Rou Yue reluctantly stretched out her hand, thinking that if it wasn't for its cute appearance, she would have killed you!
The Hun King took it solemnly, gently touched the snow toad's little head with one hand, and said: "Blue eyes mean that it has lived for at least a thousand years. When it turns into purple eyes, it will be satisfied." The request for immortality! No, logically speaking, this thing should not want to be close to people, but why is it not afraid of me? Could it be that it has already recognized its master? Rou'er, where did you catch it? How could it be so obedient? "
Rou Yue said angrily: "It must be that Central Plains man. In order to attract my attention, he let a frog squat on the note. I was so angry!"
"What a frog, it's a snow toad!" the Hun King corrected.
"What exactly is a snow toad that you value so much?" Rouyue asked.
The King of the Huns eloquently said that the snow toad is a spiritual creature produced by gathering the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The lifespan of this creature can reach thousands of years. During the growth stage, the color of its eyes will change once every two hundred years, as follows: There are seven stages: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, indigo and purple. When it appears purple, it means the snow toad has entered the mature stage from the growth stage. Legend has it that it can satisfy people's needs for immortality.
Before recognizing his master, the Snow Toad had lived for more than 1,200 years, changed from green to blue, and evolved early after drinking Ji Jie's blood.
"If he has really recognized his master, then his master must be nearby!" the Hun King asserted.
Rou Yue didn't expect that a strange-looking frog turned out to be a spiritual creature that had lived for thousands of years. She couldn't help but look at Ji Jie with admiration. Moreover, she believed that Ji Jie was hiding somewhere nearby, but she just didn't want to show up.
Since this was the case, Rouyue did not force him to come out deliberately. Judging from the information sent, this person was a friend rather than an enemy. Thinking about what she had done to him before, she felt very regretful.
Ji Jie outside shrugged. At this time, he was wearing a bodyguard armor and was patrolling with a group of soldiers in a decent manner.
Looking back at the Hun King's tent, he thought to himself that the Snow Toad would be generous enough to let you play for a few days. Unless you can find another female, it will definitely follow me.
The reason why I think this is only a male is very simple. The guy was very honest when he was in Rou Yue's hands, but when he was replaced by Ji Jie or the Hun King, he immediately turned into an impatient expression.
After more than half an hour, the Hun King began to arrange defense. He ordered his people to dig traps outside the camp overnight, insert sharp bamboo sticks, set up several barriers near the camp, and distribute all the bows and crossbows he brought to the individual soldiers. In hand, there are a dozen large buckets filled with water next to each tent to put out fires at any time.
Ten centurions stood in the tent, and Rouyue stood beside the Hun King in military uniform.
After the King of the Huns arranged tasks for each of them, he sighed: "Since I came to the throne, I have been very good to the Baishan tribe and always let the Baishan King do everything. But why is he always dissatisfied? He actually led his troops to attack me." Surrounded and intended to replace it, I am very disappointed!"
Rou Yue said loudly: "We have made preparations to defend against the enemy. If the White Mountain King comes back, he will die as many as he comes!"
The ten centurions were eager to fight and their morale was very high. They all told the enemy that there would be no return.
After preparations for most of the night, the guard camp was surrounded by traps, and the layers of resistance inside and outside were like sharp thorns growing on the ground. The soldiers entered the defensive position, preparing to fight the invading enemy.
Two miles south of the camp, King Baishan's flag was fluttering in the wind. The defensive specifications of the camp surprised him. Didn't it mean that the Hun King was only temporarily stationed here? How could he place so many flags outside? Reject the horse?
How many lives of soldiers must be sacrificed to rush in? King Baishan seemed to see a scene of corpses strewn across the field.
But the opportunity is rare, and the face has been torn, and there is no turning back. No matter how superior the military strength is, it is five times that of the Huns. No matter how many people are sacrificed, it is still worth it.
"Listen to my order, shrink the defense lines in four directions at the same time, and charge head-on. Others must guard against the enemy's breakthrough!" King Baishan waved his flag, and five teams of men and horses began to move at the same time. Four of them were responsible for the encirclement, and one team charged from the front.
When they ran two hundred feet away from the camp, the first round of crossbow arrows was fired from the camp, and they immediately fired back.
One party is exposed in the wilderness, and the other is hidden in a hidden place. It is clear who suffers and who benefits.
Then came the second round of arrow rain, and the dead companions fell down from their horses. Just when they thought they were about to run out of the killing range of the crossbows, bad luck struck.
Trap!
It was one foot deep, and there were densely packed sharp bamboo sticks inserted underneath. The fallen knight and his horse were all dug into a hornet's nest!
It was difficult for the charging horse to stop, and soon the pit was filled.
The people behind stopped in time, but became the target of shooting by the members of the Guards Battalion. They wanted to turn around, but found that there was a crowd of people behind them and they could not move at all.
As a result, less than 20% of the 1,000 people returned alive, which can be described as a defeated army. On the other hand, Rouyue's side suffered no more than a hundred casualties, which can be said to be a complete victory.
The King of the Huns personally supervised the army, and with the victory just now, the strength reached its peak.
In addition to bravely killing the enemy, Rou Yue has been looking for Ji Jie, her keen eyes scanning every warrior.
She found a man with a very low brim of his hat. The man's clothes were no different from those of the soldiers, but his arrows were all fired. No fewer than forty enemies died in his hands, all of them killed with one arrow!
