Needless to say, Liya's situation was that she was stuck to the horse and refused to get off the horse. You could still faintly see the coagulated blood stains on her pink dress. Even Sister Klea was shaking after getting off the horse.
Shaking, the whole body seemed to be shaken to pieces. Although the Han soldiers were also tired, with the stirrups, they could stand upright when running fast, and their legs could relax a little without wearing out.
Very powerful.
Seeing Liya's painful look, Liu Xin felt a little unbearable. Her actions might have gone too far, so she couldn't help but stepped forward and tried to help her off the horse. The stubborn Liya glared at him fiercely and insisted that she
After coming down, Liu Xin shook her head helplessly and had to let Sister Cleia take care of her.
In just one day, although the two sisters could not speak Chinese yet, they were able to roughly understand Liu Xin's meaning through gestures. In fact, being a gladiator requires not only brute strength, but also courage and wisdom. If you overcome
If the Leia sisters were not smart enough, they would never be alive today.
The endurance of gladiators is indeed much stronger than that of ordinary people. Sister Cleia only moved a little and her walking posture returned to normal, but her movements were a little slow. However, compared to Liya, it was a world of difference.
Please stay for the female donor.
Although Liya acted very strong in front of Liu Xin, she did not refuse the kindness of the two female gladiators and obediently allowed them to help her get off the horse. Indeed, without their support, Liya would not have been able to get down by herself today.
.
Liu Xin ignored them and walked into the big tent on her own, because another battle report was coming from the front line, and this was the focus she needed to pay attention to.
All night long, the battle reports continued. Although the battle reports came in the form of meteors and horses, Liu Xin and the others also marched for eight hundred miles, so they could not catch up with the meteors and horses. These things in the battle reports all happened on March 3.
Days ago. Although the news was a little delayed, it was all good news.
The Xianbei army failed to attack Daling, but turned to attack Qi County and suffered heavy losses. It had temporarily retreated to Taiyuan, and was unable to move south in a short period of time.
After Guan Yu obtained the trebuchets and reinforcements, it only took him most of a day to conquer Neihuang. Jiang Qi was captured and taken to Chang'an. The mountains of grain and grass in Neihuang City now belong to the Han army.
The 300,000 Yuan Army infantry returning from Liyang fell into a tight siege eighty miles south of Yecheng. Although Qu Yi's camp was well organized, it had no food and grass inside and no reinforcements outside. It was only a matter of time before it was destroyed.
If Liu Xin was in Chang'an at this time, he would definitely order the mobilization of armored cavalry to carry out the final blow to the besieged Yuan army. No matter how strong Qu Yi's camp was, it was not a city after all, and it would be powerless under the impact of the armored cavalry. But
Liu Xin is now thousands of miles away from Chang'an. By the time his order reaches Chang'an and then is sent to the front line, the battle may be over.
The only news that made Liu Xin a little worried was that Cao Cao finally made a move. Cao Cao did not send his troops north to rescue Yuan Shao, but moved westward with his sword pointed at Luoyang. This area is the defense area of the Fourth Army, but the Fourth Army's
The main force has been adjusted
Going to Taiyuan to stop the Xianbei army from going south, there were only 10,000 soldiers guarding Hulao Pass. They had to face Cao Cao's 300,000 troops alone. Liu Xin really didn't have much confidence in whether they could hold on, and could only place their hopes on Ma Yun.
Temporarily scheduled.
The next day, Liu Xin failed to continue marching. It was very close to the border. Beyond the Uzbeli Fortress was Dawan. From Dawan to the west, you could reach Kangju. Before the team set off, he needed to
Do two things.
The first is to communicate with the Dawan Kingdom. Twenty thousand troops passed through other people's territory, and there was a war between the two sides last year. If there is no communication in advance, it is likely to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
The second is to send someone to Kangju to ask Queen Kangju about the domestic situation in Kangju. After all, Cai He has been away from Kangju for a month. A month is not long or short, so what is the situation?
Everything could happen. Breaking in rashly like this was not only a matter of whether he could help Queen Kang Ju, but also the life or death of 20,000 Han soldiers.
Liu Xin brought only soldiers and no diplomatic talents. However, before setting off from Chang'an, he sent someone to notify Jia Xu that the Duhufu would send someone to complete the above two things. All he had to do was
Just waiting for news in Wuji City.
Wuji City has no city walls, but it has expanded greatly. There are eight vertical and four horizontal avenues, dividing the entire city into square areas. There are shops on both sides of the roads. In just one year, it was originally just
Wuji City, a small oasis in the desert, now has a permanent population of nearly 100,000. These people include Han people, people from the countries in the Western Regions, people from Dawan, Wusun, Kangju and other countries around the Western Regions, and even some people.
There are merchants from Da Qin.
In addition to shops, there are many inns, brothels and taverns in the city. Because there are many caravans traveling from north to south, many people have to stay and eat in the city every day. Businessmen who are far away from home also need to have some fun, so
, whether it’s an inn, a tavern or a brothel, business is booming.
Wuji City is not under the jurisdiction of Shule State, but is under the jurisdiction of the Han people themselves, and all tax revenue belongs to the Han Dynasty. Therefore, an official posthouse is also opened in Wuji City for officials and officials who come to visit on official business.
Residence of foreign envoys.
Although the conditions in the post house were much better, Liu Xin and the others did not live in them, but chose to camp outside the city. This was not because it was already dark when Liu Xin and the others arrived at Wuji City.
In a city that never sleeps, even in the middle of the night, the streets are packed with people.
Liu Xin chose to live outside the city. On the one hand, she did not want to disturb the people in the city. On the other hand, she also considered safety. There are hundreds of thousands of people in the city, a mixture of good and bad, everyone is there, and there are inevitably others.
Special spies are better during the day, but they must be on guard at night.
Now, the envoys sent by Jia Xu to Dawan and Kangju have not returned yet, so Liu Xin cannot continue to move forward and simply decides to go to Wuji City in the morning.
Hearing that Liu Xin was going to bring a few personal guards into the city, sisters Cleia and Maria actually said together in blunt Chinese: "Master, I'm going too!"
Liu Xin couldn't help but be surprised. She didn't expect that their language learning ability was so strong, it was comparable to Hou Qinu. If Hou Qinu were here and given a little training, they might be able to communicate simply in Chinese.
Seeing the expectant looks on the sisters' faces, Liu Xin couldn't bear to refuse, nodded and said: "Go and see Princess Loulan. If she wants to go, just take her with you."
Liya followed the team closely along the way and suffered a lot. Liu Xin also felt a little embarrassed. They said that shopping is a woman's nature. Liu Xin planned to take her to Wuji City for a walk. I heard that there were people gathering there.
I have found good things from all over the world, and even Liu Xin herself wants to see them.
There were only three women in the entire team. The two female gladiators did not know that Liu Xin had amazing martial arts skills. They recognized Liu Xin as their master and devoted themselves to protecting him. They insisted on following Liu Xin even at night.
I want to sleep in that big tent.
Of course Liya couldn't sleep here. She had a separate small tent next to Liu Xin's big tent. Because of Liu Xin's insistence, she couldn't bring her maid with her. Liu Xin had made a double plan and tried every means to embarrass her.
, let her give up and return to Wanni City as soon as possible. If she insists on following, it is not a bad thing. No matter whether she encounters the black whirlwind or not, Liu Xin is ready to tell her the truth.
Liu Xin opened the tent door and saw Liya lying on her back on the sleeping bag, with her long legs spread out in a figure-eight shape, a very inelegant posture.
Liu Xin naturally understood Hani's intention of asking Liya to follow Liu Xin. But Liya was only fourteen or fifteen years old, a few years older than Liu Xin's daughter, so Liu Xin treated her like a child.
Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but frowned and lectured: "Close your legs!"
Hu women have an open temperament and do not pay attention to these details. Liya raised her head and glanced at Liu Xin, but did not make any move. On the contrary, Cleia hurriedly walked over and picked up a blanket to cover Liya's lower body. Maria moved her hands and feet.
Using both words, he struggled to explain to Liu Xin in a gibbering voice.
Probably because they are both women, these two female gladiators were very cruel to the guards around Liu Xin, but they were quite protective of Liya. They helped Liya into the tent last night and stayed there for a while before returning.
Liu Xin's place.
It took Liu Xin a while to figure out that it turned out that Liya's two thighs were worn out. If they were brought together, the wound would be affected and cause severe pain, and it would not be conducive to the healing of the wound, so Liya could only maintain this condition.
Indecent posture, I just wrongly blamed her.
Liu Xin felt a little guilty. She just wanted her to get out of the way. She didn't want to hurt her like this, so she couldn't help but walked over and asked with concern: "How is it? Have you taken any medicine?"
It was okay if he didn't ask. As soon as he asked, Liya shed tears, and soon she burst into tears and burst into tears.
Liu Xin asked curiously: "Does it hurt?"
Liya's crying became louder, and after a long while, Fang choked with sobs and said, "Da Hong is dead."
Liu Xin was stunned and asked: "Who is Dahong?"
Liya wiped her tears and said, "Dahong has been following me since he was a child. He is exhausted to death."
Only then did Liu Xin realize that it was the maroon horse she was riding that had died. Although the Western Region horse was tall and powerful and powerful, it had insufficient endurance. After running long-distance for a day and a half, it was good enough to last until the finish line.
However, the death of this horse also had a lot to do with Liu Xin. Liu Xin became a little embarrassed and said: "Okay, don't cry. When we get to Dawan, I will ask the King of Dawan to give you a horse of sweat and blood."
That’s BMW.”
Liya suddenly sighed and said: "I can't ride a horse, and I can't keep walking with you. Please ask someone to take me back to Kuni!"
