Chapter 40: Intrigue

When Shalineng and the other barbarians heard this, they were all stunned. They looked closely and saw that in the Han team opposite, the person who was being pushed out by two Hanzhong soldiers was not the leader of his own clan or someone else.

Seeing that the clan leader had fallen into the hands of the Hanzhong army, everyone's expressions changed greatly and their hearts were horrified. Salinen almost jumped off his horse.

After being stunned for a moment, Shali Neng shuddered, came back to his senses, his eyes widened, and his large ring eyes were as wide as copper bells. He shouted sternly: "Let our clan leader go immediately.

!(barbaric language)”

Zhang Ping said in a deep voice: "Let Xie Tu come out and speak! (Barbarian language)"

Shali Neng flew into a rage, roared like crazy, and rushed towards Liu Xiu and others on the opposite side regardless of urging his horse.

Gai Yan snorted coldly, and went forward with a sword. Sha Lineng and Gai Yan, one on the horse and the other under the horse, Sha Lineng held a stick and hit Gai Yan, but the latter did not retreat, and raised his knife horizontally.

Parry.

Bang!

With a loud noise, the mace hit the blade of the Yanyue Sword firmly, and a large ball of sparks burst out.

The violent collision caused Shali to lift the two front hooves of his horse so high that it almost stood upright on the ground. Gaiyan's feet rubbed against the ground and slid backwards more than a meter.

The head-to-head confrontation between the two can be said to be a close match.

Just when Shali was trying to steady his horse, Zhang Ping suddenly shot an arrow straight between his eyebrows.

The distance between the two sides was close, and Zhang Ping's arrow was so fast that Sali Neng didn't even have time to block. He instinctively leaned back to dodge.

Sha! The arrow almost passed by his head. At this time, the war horse was almost upright. Sha Li could not sit still in the saddle. In addition, he leaned back and immediately fell off the horse.

When he went down and landed, his huge body made a muffled sound.

Shali Neng stood up from the ground in disgrace and screamed with anger. He ignored Zhang Ping and rushed towards Gai Yan with a mace. The latter was not timid and fought with his knife. The two of them were on the ground.

They fought together.

These two men were both known for their immense strength. When they were fighting together, the scene was extremely fierce. There was a continuous sound of clanging iron tools. Everyone around them felt that their eardrums were being shocked and hurt, and they couldn't help but

Back up.

Gai Yan and Sha Li Neng fought for thirty rounds, and they were still evenly matched, with neither winning nor losing. Zhang Ping took out another arrow from the quiver, twisted his bow and nocked the arrow. Without any warning, he suddenly shot outward again.

Shoot an arrow.

He did not shoot this arrow at Salinen, but at the barbarian soldiers on the opposite side.

"Ah——" With a scream, a barbarian soldier was hit by an arrow in the chest and fell to the ground.

Salinen, who was having a fierce fight with Gaiyan, was slightly distracted by the screams of his men.

In a duel between masters, any shock would be fatal. Salinen only distracted his mind for a moment, but without paying attention, Gaiyan's knife had already struck close to his head.

Salinen was horrified. At this time, it was too late to block the knife with his mace. He could only bend down with all his strength to dodge.

Sha! The Yanyue knife passed over his head, and with it, cut off a large piece of scalp from the top of his head.

Immediately, blood flowed from the top of Salinen's head, staining his cheeks with streaks of blood. The most terrible thing was that the blood from the top of his head continued to flow into his eyes, blocking his sight.

However, Gai Yan didn't care whether his line of sight was blocked or not, and without mercy, he swung his knife across his chest again.

Shali Neng let out a loud scream and pulled back, but he was still half a step too late, and a long gash was opened in his chest by the blade of the knife.

After being stabbed twice in a row, although the wounds were not fatal, Sally was unable to fight anymore. He feinted with his stick, then retreated, turned around and ran away.

Gai Yan shouted loudly and then gave chase. However, not far after him, he saw another group of men coming out of the main barbarian camp in front. In addition, Liu Xiu and others kept calling from behind, so Gai Yan gave up the pursuit and killed Luo Huang.

Salinen, who fled, returned to his own camp.

Looking at the backs of Salineng and others who had run far away, Gai Yan stamped his feet with regret, shook his head and said: "It's such a pity that we were only one step away from decapitating this thief!"

Liu Xiu smiled, handed Gai Yan a sweat towel, and said, "Brother Juqing, thank you for your hard work."

Li Tong ran to the war horse left by Salinen, led it to Liu Xiu, and said with a smile: "We are not at a loss, at least we have captured a war horse!"

Liu Xiu looked at the tall horse in front of him. It was all black from top to bottom, but there was a tuft of white hair in the center of the horse's forehead. Liu Xiu touched the mane on the horse's back and praised: "It's a good horse."

Nice horse!”

Let's talk about Salinen, he fled all the way back to the barbarian army's main line.

Seeing Salinen returning from defeat with blood on his head and body, Xietu looked gloomy and said coldly: "Salinen, you lost."

Shalineng swallowed and stammered: "Xietu, the Hanzhong army captured the clan leader! Our clan leader is now in their hands!"

"What did you say?" Xie Tu wondered if his ears had heard it wrong. He raised his eyebrows in disbelief and looked at Salinen intently.

The latter covered the wound on his head with one hand and the wound on his chest with the other, and said, "I saw... I saw the patriarch among the Hanzhong army!"

Xie Tu's originally wide eyes slowly narrowed and he moved continuously. After a long time, his expression gradually returned to normal and he said, "You were injured. You must have been blinded."

Shalineng trembled and said urgently: "Xie Tu, I can swear that I was absolutely right, and when they escorted the old patriarch out, I hadn't..."

Before he could finish his words, Xie Tu shouted sharply: "I said you were dazzled, didn't you hear me?"

Looking at Xie Tu's distorted facial features and cold eyes, Shali Neng shivered, not daring to look directly into Xie Tu's eyes, lowered his head, and whispered in a low voice: "I...I...

...Maybe, maybe I really saw it wrong..."

For such a big matter, Xietu believed that Shali would not dare to lie, let alone see it wrong. However, Xiesang fell into the hands of the Hanzhong Army. This matter was too serious. The Hanzhong Army would definitely use Xiesang to blackmail them and force them to do so.

Our own troops retreat.

Now that the battle has started, Hanzhong City has become our own. In two or three days at most, we can capture Hanzhong City in one round.

By then, the prestige won by the Xie clan will be unmatched by anyone in the entire Ugo Kingdom, and they will surely become the most favorable contender for the throne.

Therefore, he must fight this battle and win it. No one can stop him, including his father Xiesang.

Moreover, Xie Tu has been dissatisfied with Xiesang for more than a day or two. Xiesang occupies the position of the clan leader and does not care about anything, only seeking comfort and enjoyment.

Without him, Xie Tu, Xiesang would have been pushed off the throne of the clan leader so many times. Xiesang's survival would be a huge obstacle to Xie Tu. If Xiesang could be eliminated with the help of the Hanzhong Army, this would

It can be regarded as the best of both worlds.

This was the main reason why Xie Tu insisted not to believe that Xiesang fell into the hands of the Hanzhong Army. He clenched his fists, took a deep breath, turned his head and shouted: "Luan Titon, Shao Ge!"

"Here!" In response, two barbarian generals came out and bowed to Xie Tu.

"You two will lead a thousand elite troops to kill the Hanzhong army in the rear without leaving a single person alive! Remember, don't leave even one alive!"

"Yes!" The two barbarian generals both agreed and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Xie Tu stopped the two of them, looked left and right, and whispered: "Come closer and talk."

Luan Tidun and Shao Ge were startled at first, and then moved closer to Xie Tu.

The latter whispered in their ears. When he finished speaking, their expressions suddenly changed, and they looked at Xie Tu in shock and horror.

Xie Tu had no expression on his face and said word for word: "Do what I want. If the sky falls, I will be the one to hold it up!"

Luan Tidun and Shao Ge looked at each other, grinned secretly, lowered their heads, and neither of them spoke immediately.

Xie Tu narrowed his eyes and asked coldly: "What? You two don't even listen to me now?"

Hearing this, both of them were shocked and hurriedly bowed and said, "I obey my orders!" After saying that, they both turned and left.

Luan Tidun and Shao Ge were both well-known warriors of the Xie clan, and they were also confidants promoted by Xie Tu. Although they usually followed Xie Tu, the murder of the clan leader was too big a deal.

No matter how courageous they were, they were still very nervous when they started doing this.

However, Xie Tu's order had been issued, and the two had no choice but to follow Xie Tu's order. Luan Tidun and Shao Ge led a thousand elite barbarians to leave the formation and rush towards Liu Xiu and others.

We have just beaten away a small group of barbarians, and now a large group of barbarians have arrived. Looking up, we estimate that there are no less than a thousand soldiers.

Li Tong walked up to Liu Xiu and asked with furrowed brows: "Uncle Wen, what are the barbarian army doing? Do they not care about the life or death of the clan leader at all?"

Liu Xiu stared at the oncoming barbarian army and remained silent.

Gai Yan snorted coldly and said: "Capturing Xiesang alive is completely unnecessary. I think these barbarians not only don't care about Xiesang's life and death, but also wish we could kill Xiesang earlier!"

His words moved Liu Xiu's heart.

When we were in the barbarian camp in Ganyou Mountain, we could see that Xiesang was still very prestigious among the barbarians. The barbarians all looked up to him and did not dare to take his orders too seriously even if they were burned alive.

After resisting, could it be that when the barbarian army arrived, Xiesang's prestige in the Xie clan was no longer effective, and the situation became different?

I'm afraid not necessarily! Maybe some people in the barbarian army hope that Xiesang will die soon.

If Xiesang dies, the most direct beneficiary will of course be his son Xietu. Xietu can take advantage of the situation and become the legitimate leader of the Xie clan. And among the Xie clan, Xietu is probably the only one who dares to kill Xiesang so blatantly.

Already.

Thinking of this, Liu Xiu sneered in his heart. Xie Tu had a good idea. He wanted to use his own hands to help him get rid of Xiesang, the biggest obstacle.

Liu Xiu wanted to understand the cause of the matter, and without hesitation, he walked to the front of the horse, kicked off, and floated on the horse. Then, he bent down, reached out his hand, and grabbed Xiesang. The people around him had not reacted yet.

, Liu Xiu had already picked up Xiesang and put him on the horse.

"Uncle Wen..." Everyone present was shocked when they saw this, not knowing what he was going to do.

Liu Xiu sat on the horse, smiled at everyone, and said confidently: "Don't worry, everyone, I will fight back the enemy!" As he spoke, he knocked his feet on the stirrups, his horse neighed, and he ran straight towards the thousands of barbarian troops on the opposite side.

go.

Seeing this, Long Yuan, Gai Yan, and Zhang Ping were all shocked and shouted in unison: "Danger——"
