Chapter 608 Mountains
"Speaking human words!"
Hongjin spat, suddenly raised her foot and kicked over behind him.
"...." Manila pulled the wound and took a breath of cold air in pain. She looked at her horror and realized that the four women were not so gentle. She then replied in a low voice: "... More than two hundred years ago, your messenger came here to spread the culture for a period of time. I learned some of the knowledge scrolls recorded in the teachings..."
"I'm very smart, I know without a teacher." Ren Hongchang nodded at him and threw the last dead branch into the fire. "Since you can speak Chinese, that's the best. I'll ask you, where did the Han army go, and take me over immediately after dawn."
When the word "army" was mentioned, Mani's already pale face suddenly became ugly. He turned around and crawled on the ground. When he wanted to leave, a female servant who came was stepped on her back. With a clang, the blade was placed on his neck: "Let's lead the way after dawn, otherwise you will cut off your head."
"I... just escaped." Mani looked at the blade in front of him, and his lips were shaking slightly as he spoke.
Not long after, the clouds in the sky of the rising sun turned white, the flames on the ground went out, and the blue smoke rose. Mani was tied up with her hands and was taken care of by someone to return to the way she came. The temperature in the air did not appear warm because of the rising sun. In the puddles along the way, there were faint slags of ice, Gobi, and occasionally oasis, and there were basically no one to see at the end of her sight.
"You took the wrong direction." Hongjin pressed the tip of the knife against the man Anxi's back, and his bright eyes stared out a little fiercely: "...... How far is it?!"
Mani staggered and looked around. The smell of burnt smell occasionally came from the wind blowing. The four and two wolves behind also smelled the familiar smell. Mani raised his bound hands and pointed a finger at the hill ahead, "Flip over... and you can see the city of Nisa, which is the brightest pearl of Parthia."
They were not slow. After half an hour, they climbed up the mound. The smell of burning and blood became stronger and stronger. When they stood at the highest point of their sight, they were covered with black walls wherever they could see. However, after passing here, the city was charred and burning flames could be seen in some places. The black smoke was pressed very low by the wind and blew towards the north.
"This city wall is so weirdly black." Someone reminded me.
After walking again and carefully looking at the wall section, Hongjin suddenly covered her mouth and opened her eyes wide. The wall was tied with ropes, and there were strings of human heads on it, covering the entire city wall, extending to difficult to see, but more of the human corpses were hanging on it naked. The scorched birds heard the footsteps and flew into the sky in a black cry.
"Is this the brightest city you call?" Ren Hongchang narrowed his eyes and raised his chin.
Mani clenched her fists and looked at the deadly Nisa with a hoarse voice: "......was it."
Step on
The sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded under the hills, and several horse-riding figures rushed over with bows and arrows. A long time ago, they had noticed the people. Ren Hongchang glanced at them: "It's Xianbei cavalry, let's go there."
"Yi Captain, Xianbei people are so fierce and fierce. Will they fall in love with us..." Hong Jin followed behind and looked vigilantly at the five grassland cavalrymen wearing leather jackets and built-in leather armor. "... I really like it, what should I do then? I haven't married yet..."
"Don't talk nonsense."
...
Under the hill.
The war horses wandered, and a Xianbei man looked at the four women walking down, turned his head and smiled hideously at his companions around him, and said in Xianbei language quite rampantly: "I didn't expect to encounter a Han woman here. It's really a gift from the White Wolf God. Why don't you rob them all, anyway, the Wolf King's army has gone to the south."
"I'm robbing the wild... How did the Supervisor teach us?" The companion shook his head and steadied the war horses that swung from time to time. "A few Han Dynasty women suddenly appeared here. Don't you think there would be strangeness in your head?"
The other three laughed loudly, and then the laughter suddenly stopped. Someone pointed at the group who were getting closer and closer: "It seems like there is a wolf behind them... white..."
The Xianbei man who was the first to speak narrowed his eyes and looked over carefully, with a surprised look on his face: "It's very familiar... I've seen it somewhere, go, go and take a look."
The distance between the two sides gradually narrowed. When the five Xianbei scouts and horses set up their formation, the woman coming towards them took out a copper sign from their arms without waiting for them to speak, and threw it over ten steps, landing not far in front of the war horse in the middle. One of the Xianbei people dismounted and picked it up and looked at it. It was engraved with a wolf head on it.
He quickly put the weapon back into the scabbard, and his posture seemed much more respectful. The remaining Xianbei scouts then dismounted and came to see him. Ren Hongchang did not go there, but just stood there from afar and asked them: "I am your wolf king's woman. Where is his camp now? All the people in this city have been killed by you?"
"Wolf King's Wolf King's Woman?" The five Xianbei scouts were all Chinese and were stunned when they heard this, but they were not as good as they could take out this token. The last time someone took out this sign, the former Lost Nu Shanyu lost his head. It was said that the Wolf King's wife, who was the host of Shanggu County, sent to various Xianbei people to display it.
After hesitating for a moment, some of them said: "Two days ago, the Wolf King had already taken the army south."
"...... In such a cold weather, there is still a war?" Ren Hongchang's calm eyes finally showed shock. Even a woman who did not understand military affairs knew the common sense. Gongsun Zhi would not know, "...Where will we go next?"
"I heard that the capital of the Absassinites are very prosperous, and the people in this city have not been killed and have been taken to the front line. After all, it is necessary to attack the city."
The Xianbei scout answered her proudly. The fabulous winter lightning battle... This was what the Shanyu Xuegui Ni personally told them...
The cold wind blows five hundred miles south, and is known as the city of Hekadonbiru, the prosperity capital of Parthia. The temperature is also extremely cold. As an invaded country, it has become accustomed to it. In the hundreds of years since its founding, the Romans have been invaded, and the number of times the Romans' invasions cannot be counted. When news from the north came, most people in the city shrank at home and lived the same life as usual. After all, the climate in Central Asia is extremely cold. Those invaders cannot come here in the wind and snow that can cover people's eyes, right?
In the palace, Parthia's new emperor was discussing the final details of sending troops with the ministers and nobles, and suppressing the rebellion became the primary task.
"The Selius people will definitely stop in the cold winter. The conquest has come to an end. Even if the Bailaomen will conquer this city, the Parthians will not accept their rule." Vollogis made a decision confidently, but in fact he did not say the last sentence.
"...but my younger brother Aldaban is the legal heir to the emperor."
The discussion finally made a resolution, but before it could be implemented, a few days later, the entire city of Hecadon Biru received even greater information. As early as when Nisa was attacked, Bailaomen sent reinforcements and walked halfway through the way, they were torn in half by two terrifying cavalry from Selius.
Then more than 100,000 troops of Selius had begun to come.
From the shock, he had not yet come to his senses, there was the commander of the Restoration Army far away on the border of Harax, Aldaban, the youngest son of the old emperor Parthia. He looked at the old man beside him, so silent that he could not make any sound.
It took me a long time to put a word on it.
