Chapter 41: Success and failure

But at this time, it was already too late for everyone to stop Liu Xiu.

Salinen's war horse is indeed a rare horse. Even if it carries Liu Xiu and Xiesang on its back, it still runs like an arrow.

Liu Xiu had no horses at home, only oxen, but he had also learned to ride horses before, but the horses he had ridden before were only slightly better than the horses. He had never ridden such a war horse.

When the horse started running, Liu Xiu felt like he was flying, and the wind filled his ears.

In just a moment, Liu Xiu was only about thirty steps away from the barbarian army on the opposite side. The barbarian soldiers showed their scimitars one after another, just waiting for Liu Xiu to rush forward and cut him into pieces.

At this moment, Liu Xiu straightened Xiesang, who was lying on the horse, and asked him to sit in front of him. At the same time, he shouted loudly: "Xiesang is here, who dares to do something? Xiesang is here, who dares to do it?"

Take action?"

The Chinese he spoke was incomprehensible to the barbarians, but the barbarians were not blind, and they all saw the clan leader Xiesang sitting in front of Liu Xiu.

The barbarian soldiers each held scimitars and looked at Xiesang on the war horse. They were dumbfounded and didn't know what to do. Luan Titon and Shao Ge could also see clearly that the man sitting on the horse was not the clan leader or someone else?

The two of them looked at each other, and Shao Ge shouted loudly: "The enemy is coming, charge into the formation, shoot arrows!"

All the barbarian soldiers stood up stupidly, and no one drew their bows to shoot arrows. Shao Ge was very anxious and shouted sternly: "I asked you to shoot arrows, didn't you hear?"

"But... but the person who is about to come is the clan leader..." a barbarian soldier standing next to Shao Ge stammered.

"I asked you to shoot the arrow!" Shao Ge was furious and whipped the barbarian soldier's shoulder hard with his whip. The latter stumbled to the side, and a blood mark immediately appeared on his shoulder.

He lowered his head, his body was shaking with pain, but he didn't dare to shoot an arrow.

He was like this, and so were the other barbarian soldiers. No one dared to shoot arrows at Xiesang.

It was too late to say that, but soon, Liu Xiu and Xiesang had already galloped in front of everyone.

The barbarian soldiers who stood there didn't dare to stop them at all. The people retreated to both sides like a tide, making way for Liu Xiu's dismounted horse to make way for a human body passage.

If you don't take action, it will be too late! Luan Titon and Shao Ge looked at each other, and they both roared together, swinging their swords to kill Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu also reacted quickly, pulling out the Qingfeng sword from under his ribs and blocking outwards.

.

Bang, bang! There were two consecutive clashes of iron weapons. Liu Xiu held a sword in one hand and blocked the heavy swords of Luan Titon and Shao Ge.

This is unbelievable! Luan Titon and Shao Ge are fierce generals of the Xi tribe, with amazing strength and bravery. Someone can parry the heavy swords of the two of them at the same time, and the opponent looks like a young man in his twenties.

people.

The two of them used their swords to frighten Xiesang. He felt that the two swords were aimed at him to a large extent. Xiesang became furious and shouted: "Luan Tidun, Shao Ge"

, do you two want to kill me? (barbaric language)"

This voice made all the barbarian soldiers present look at Luan Titon and Shao Ge. At the same time, it also made their hearts tremble, making them unable to make a second attack.

Just when the two of them were stunned, Liu Xiu urged his horse to pass by them and continued to rush forward.

Next, Liu Xiu was not blocked by anyone and rushed from the front of the barbarian army to the end of the array. He successfully broke out of the barbarian army and went straight to the barbarian army's main formation.

Oops! Luan Tidun and Shao Ge looked back and were shocked. They hurriedly turned their horses and ran back. The rest of the barbarians also ran back after them.

Liu Xiu led Xiesang and rushed to the front of the barbarian army's main formation. He did not stop, but rushed directly in. At the same time, he kept shouting: "Xiesang is here, who dares to act rashly? Xiesang is here, who dares to move?"

Who dares to act rashly?"

At this time, not only the thousand barbarian soldiers could clearly see Xiesang, but also the tens of thousands of people in the barbarian army's main formation could clearly see that Xiesang was being held hostage by the soldiers of the Hanzhong Army.

In an instant, the barbarian army's formation was as if the camp had been blown up. People were at a loss, but they didn't know what to do. They could only stand there and scream strangely.

Xie Tu, who was in the main formation of the barbarian army, naturally saw Xiesang.

At this time, Xie Tu's lungs were about to burst with anger. The Hanzhong Army's forceful attack completely disrupted his plan. Now that everyone saw Xie Sang fall into the hands of the Hanzhong Army, he ordered to kill him again.

I'm afraid no one in this Hanzhong Army will listen to me.

Xie Tu raised his hand and pointed at Liu Xiu, who was galloping in his own formation as if he was in a deserted place. He gritted his teeth and asked everyone on the left and right: "Who is this person?"

Everyone around him had bewildered faces. They didn't know Liu Xiu, let alone who he was.

Xie Tu squeezed out a sentence through his teeth: "If I capture this man alive, I will skin him alive and beat his tendons alive!"

People thought that Xie Tu wanted to avenge his father's capture! Everyone looked filled with righteous indignation and said, "We swear to capture this man alive and avenge the past humiliation of the clan leader!"

They were talking, and Liu Xiu happened to see them.

He didn't know Xie Tu, but he could tell that Xie Tu's clothes were obviously different from other barbarians. He was wearing a large animal skin cloak with wide cross leather belts inside, and an iron melon skin cap on his head.

He made two horns, and beside him were many generals of the barbarian army, as well as tall and round bodyguards.

In addition, Xiesang, who was held hostage by him, kept looking over there. Liu Xiu was even more certain that the barbarian in the center of the crowd, who was being admired by everyone, was Xie Tu.

He pulled the reins of his war horse, turned its head, and ran straight towards Xie Tu.

The guards around Xie Tu hurriedly protected Xie Tu, looking at Liu Xiu as if he were facing a formidable enemy. Xie Tu angrily pushed away the two guards standing in front of him, with a pair of deep eyes, fierce

He glared at Liu Xiu angrily.

When he was still more than ten steps away from Xie Tu, Liu Xiu tightened the reins of his war horse and stopped it. He held the reins in one hand and a sword in the other, placed it on Xiesang's neck, and shouted: "You

Wait for the barbarian army to listen, Xie Sang is in my hands, if you don’t want to kill your clan leader, retreat immediately!”

Xie Tu could hear Chinese, and his face was livid with anger. Now he really had the urge to strangle Liu Xiu and Xiesang to death, but he couldn't do it, especially in front of so many tribesmen.

He suppressed his anger, took a deep breath, and said loudly: "Who are you? Tell me your name!"

"Liu Xiu!"

Liu Xiu! Xie Tu secretly chanted Liu Xiu's name in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "If you release him, we will retreat!"

He really hoped that Xiesang could die immediately, but in front of everyone, he could only say this.

Liu Xiu raised his head and said: "When you retreat, I will naturally release you!"

"You Han people have gone back on their word and have no credibility. If you refuse to let me go today, you won't even be able to leave here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the barbarian soldiers around him roared and surrounded Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu didn't panic, he just pressed the Qingfeng Sword to Xiesang's neck. For a moment, blood flowed down Xiesang's neck.

Seeing this, the expressions of the barbarian soldiers who had just gathered changed greatly, and people involuntarily retreated.

"If you don't care about the clan leader's life or death, just take action against me!" As he spoke, he looked around slowly.

The barbarian soldiers and generals present all glared at Liu Xiu, but no one dared to act rashly.

Alas! Xie Tu sighed secretly in his heart. After all the calculations, he missed this stupid pig Xiesang. Why didn’t he die among women earlier?!

He closed his eyes and was silent for a long time, then slowly opened his eyes and said: "Our army can retreat ten miles first. You let my father go. Then we will leave Hanzhong and return to our territory."

Liu Xiu said: "Fifty miles."

"What?"

"You retreat fifty miles, and I will let you go!"

"No!" For fifty miles, this step back and forth would take at least a day, and he didn't have that much time to waste on this.

Xie Tu held out two fingers and said: "Twenty miles, our army can retreat up to twenty miles!"

"Seventy miles!"

"What?"

"Eighty miles!"

"you……"

"One hundred miles!" Liu Xiu raised the corner of his mouth, looked at Xiesang sitting in front of him, sneered, and said: "This is the rule of bargaining with me. The more you want to bargain, the more I will ask for it."

Increase the price and you will retreat a hundred miles. If not, I will cut off his head now!" As he spoke, he seriously pressed the Qingfeng Sword to Xiesang's neck again.

More blood flowed from Xiesang's neck. He screamed in fright and almost fainted. He shouted at Xie Tu: "Retreat a hundred miles! Retreat a hundred miles immediately! Do you hear this?

It’s an order!”

Oops, I'm so angry! Xie Tu's lungs are about to explode. He's angry and suffocated.

But Xiesang happened to be the clan leader and his father. Now Xie Tu was really helpless.

If he really doesn't care about Xiesang's life and death and insists on killing Liu Xiu, let alone whether the clan members will obey his orders, he will not expect to inherit the position of clan leader in the future.

He clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging into the flesh of his palms, and said word by word: "Okay, okay, as long as you can ensure the safety of my father, I... our army can retreat hundreds of miles!"

"Xie Tu, I hope you keep your word!" Liu Xiu smiled at Xie Tu, turned his horse's head and ran towards the outside of the barbarian camp.

Xie Tu's look of wanting to eat him alive but having no choice but to do anything about him made Liu Xiu feel both interesting and very accomplished.

Liu Xiu is probably the only one in the world who can move freely among the barbarians. Of course, he relies entirely on Xiesang's death-free gold medal.

The barbarian soldiers present did not dare to stop Liu Xiu, and could only watch as he led Xie Sang and ran out of their own formation.

It wasn't until Liu Xiu left for a while that Xie Tu finally regained his composure. He slowly loosened his clenched fists and almost squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "Withdraw troops!"

After fighting a tough battle for so many days, we saw that Hanzhong City was about to be captured by our own side, only to give up halfway. Everyone present was very unwilling, but there was nothing they could do.

People were like eggplants beaten by frost, with their heads hanging down and sighing.

No matter how unwilling the barbarian army was, they finally chose to withdraw their troops.

No one dared to insist on fighting the siege until the end of the clan leader, including Xie Tu.

This is the power of Xiesang! Of course, it also includes Liu Xiu's foresight.
