Tuburo was a real person and translated what Liu Xin was saying to himself. The two female gladiators suddenly knelt down on the ground, kowtowed to Liu Xin and babbled loudly.
What.
Liu Xin didn't know why, so she raised her hand and said, "Tell them to get up and speak slowly."
A look of surprise appeared on Tubulo's face, and he said: "Your Majesty is truly a benevolent and righteous king! These two women are actually sisters. Even the common people don't know it. If it weren't for Your Majesty's kindness, they would be in trouble."
Escape the tragedy of fratricide."
The two female gladiators had already climbed up from the ground, with tears streaming down their faces. They were still chattering, probably still saying some words of gratitude to Liu Xin. Read the full text of Allure Elementalist. It turned out that one of the two sisters was named Clay.
Ya, one named Maria, was originally the daughter of a lord of a city-state in the Qin Dynasty. Because this lord opposed the rule of the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, the city-state was invaded by the Qin army, and both sisters were made prisoners and sold as slaves.
At this time, duels between gladiators or duels with wild beasts no longer aroused the interest of the nobles of Qin. I don’t know who suddenly had the idea to organize a duel between female gladiators. Because they had grown up since childhood.
In a noble house, she learned horse riding and fencing, and her body was stronger than that of ordinary female slaves of the same age, so she was sent to a gladiator school. The two sisters were bought by different owners, and they fought in duels again and again.
After defeating their respective opponents, they finally came together. If they hadn't happened to be spotted by Tublo, the next duel would have started between the two of them.
Liu Xin did not expect that there was such a story between the two female gladiators, and she was very sad and said: "Take them down to change into some girls' clothes, and send the women to Chang'an with the jewelry."
The two female gladiators could not understand Liu Xin's words and still stood there stupidly. It was not until the guard who had some knowledge of Daqin translated them that they knelt down on the ground again and spoke a lot to Liu Xin's ears.
If you don’t understand, the guards understood it this time. The two women said that they must stay with their master.
Liu Xin thought about it and felt that it would be inappropriate to let them go to Chang'an. After all, these two women are gladiators. They can survive from duels again and again. They must be two dangerous people. It is better to take them with them.
People around me might be able to take the opportunity to learn about Da Qin's situation, so I couldn't help but nodded and said, "Then let the two of them stay."
When the two women heard that they could stay, they couldn't help but smile and happily went to the back to change clothes.
Because there was no need to drink, today's lunch ended much earlier than usual. Sun Ce arranged for a group of soldiers to escort the jewelry sent by Tubulo and the twelve Daqin female slaves to Chang'an, while the others continued on their way.
Liya also changed into a fancy outfit and rode a tall chestnut-red horse and appeared in the team. Her mount was a fine horse originally produced in the Western Regions. It was also very powerful and was no less impressive than the Dawan horse.
Sister Cleia has taken off the Daqin armor that was covering the outside. She is dressed like a woman from the Western Regions. She has a metal collar around her neck, which is similar to the material of the armor. A thick chain on the collar is tied directly to the saddle bridge.
It's very strange. They are riding prairie horses equipped by the Han army. They have good endurance and are equipped with stirrups, horseshoes and sabers. These two horses were brought from the Han army camp in Wuni City.
Muni City is an important node on the Silk Road, and security here is very important. Therefore, a Han army camp was built with 2,000 Han army cavalry stationed there.
Liu Xin looked at Liya's horse. It was empty under the saddle, and couldn't help but smile. Without stirrups, it would be hard for this girl to travel eight hundred miles a day. After about a day, she should go home.
Seeing that the two female gladiators actually tied themselves to the pommel bridge and did not put their feet in stirrups, Liu Xin was even more surprised.
He shook his head. However, when he thought about it, the two Daqin women were not good at riding horses. Perhaps they were taking safety measures to prevent themselves from falling off the horses, so he didn't say anything more. After all, stirrups are now a top secret in the military.
First, there is no need for the two gladiators of Great Qin to learn from it.
The team left Wuni City and headed west, arriving at Jingjue that night. To Liu Xin's surprise, Sister Cleia tied herself to the saddle with a chain, which was very inelegant, but it did not affect their control of the horse at all.
It was obvious that they were also masters in equestrian skills, which gave Liu Xin, who had always thought that the Qin people were only good at infantry combat, a new understanding of the Qin's combat power.
As for Liya, as Hani said, her riding skills are quite good. She rode a tall horse without stirrups, and she kept following the team without falling behind. It was just that there was no rest along the way, so she relied on her legs to hold the mount tightly.
, after getting off the horse, his walking posture obviously changed.
Liu Xin laughed and said: "How is it? Your Highness, can you still persist?"
Liya really likes riding horses, but usually she can only gallop for an hour at most. But after running like this for nearly three hours, if her legs were closer, she would feel a stinging pain.
It is estimated that the skin on the inner thigh has been worn out. But the little girl was very stubborn. She gritted her teeth and said, "It's okay!"
Jingjue is a small country and the city is also very small, so Liu Xin declined the kindness of King Jingjue. The large group of troops did not enter the city, but only set up camp outside the city. King Wu's latest chapter.
The most central place in the camp is Liu Xin's big tent. Except that the tent is slightly larger and has a few more tables, there is nothing special compared with ordinary soldiers. This is what Liu Xin has always emphasized about the importance of officers and soldiers.
Sharing joys and sorrows is also an important measure to improve the combat effectiveness of the army.
Like other soldiers, there was no bed in Liu Xin's tent, only a sleeping bag. Just when Liu Xin was about to lie down and rest, there was a sudden argument outside the tent door. Liu Xin frowned and asked, "What's the fuss about?"
A personal guard walked in, raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, those two Da Qin women are determined to enter the tent, but the brothers dare not use their swords. It is almost impossible to stop them."
These flying tiger guards were all elites who had fought in many battles. They were unable to stop two women without using their weapons, which made Liu Xin pay attention to the strength of these two female gladiators. She pondered for a moment and then nodded.
, said: "Let them in."
In fact, it's not that the Feihu guards couldn't stop them, it was just that they were women, and these young guys didn't know where to stop them. Fortunately, Sister Cleia still wore a collar around her neck, and the collar was still attached.
The guards had no choice but to grab the two sisters by the long iron chains, otherwise they would have rushed in long ago.
The dispute outside the camp just now must have been quite serious. The two female gladiators were both in messy clothes, and their chains were held by their guards. They were still twisting their bodies desperately, trying to break free, with fierce looks in their eyes, until they saw Liu Xin. , and then it became quiet.
As long as he was not charging into battle, Liu Xin was very confident in his martial arts and was not afraid of the two Da Qin women. He waved his hand and asked the guards to loosen the chains.
The two female gladiators were freed and immediately crawled in front of Liu Xin. Because they were on all fours, crawling on the ground like dogs. Then they tied the chains to the table and squatted next to the sleeping bag.
Liu Xin suddenly understood that they tied themselves with chains to the saddles along the way, not because they were afraid that they would fall off, but to show their submission to Liu Xin. The servility had already penetrated into the bones of the two sisters, and they didn't know it. What kind of cruel training is required to turn a woman into what she is now. I'm afraid no matter what Liu Xin asks them to do now, they will do it.
In fact, it would not be a bad thing for Liu Xin, who was marching long distances, to have such two skilled female slaves following her orders. But Liu Xin came from a later generation, and her ideas were different from those of people of this era. Not to mention the Daqin people from a foreign land. He would rather have two more women than two female slaves.
Liu Xin sighed, walked over and untied the chains, pulled them up from the ground, and threw them to the guards outside along with the collars around their necks. It was at this time that Liu Xin noticed that the two sisters actually looked good. , probably because of regular exercise, she has an extremely hot figure.
When Sister Cleia saw Liu Xin untying their collars, their faces suddenly lit up, and they chatted a lot. Liu Xin couldn't understand it anyway, but no matter what Liu Xin said or what gestures she made, they just couldn't. They were willing to leave this big tent. Liu Xin had no choice but to ask the guards to bring them two sleeping bags and give them a demonstration. The sisters were smart enough to understand after just one look. They picked up the sleeping bags and walked to the tent. Yi Jiao, blushing and got in.
Sun Ce was shocked when he learned that two female gladiators were sleeping in Liu Xin's tent. He did not dare to neglect and dispatched several personal guards to take turns guarding the tent just in case. Although Liu Xin felt it was not necessary, this was Sun Ce's responsibilities had to be left to him.
There was no conversation all night, and the team continued to set off the next morning. Liya's movements on the horse were obviously much clumsy. She felt a little pain yesterday. She thought it would be better after a sleep, but when she woke up this morning, the pain was even worse. Yes. But she was very strong and gritted her teeth without saying a word.
Although the Cleia sisters did not use stirrups, their situation was obviously much better. After all, the training and life of a gladiator was much more difficult, and the duel was a life-and-death battle. This difficulty was not worth mentioning in their eyes.
But today's schedule was very tight. They had to get to Wuji City that night without making any stops on the way. It was a great test for the physical strength of both humans and horses. Fortunately, the Han army built many military stations along the way. Water and food can be replenished in time, and the horses can also get enough fodder. Although the team was a bit chaotic when they arrived at Wuji City, no one was left behind, except that the situation of the three women was not optimistic.
