The elhun River prairie, which covers an area of 180 Li, is a mountain of corpses and a river of blood!

One hundred thousand elite cavalry of Xue yantuo were defeated like a mountain, scattered like stars, and abandoned their armor. They were expelled and killed by a crazy and domineering cavalry of the Tang army, and rushed back to Qibei!

The battle began at noon and lasted six hours.

There was a smell of blood in the air, and people with breath could be seen everywhere rolling and twitching on the ground. Even the eyes of the scattered horses were full of fear of stabbing and bloodiness, and they ran around aimlessly.

Xue Rengui, carrying Fang Tianhua halberd and riding a half red and half white BMW, walked slowly. Behind him, the proud Tang army flag was still flying, and thousands of soldiers followed him and retreated back.

It was an incredible and unimaginable victory.

But there was no joy and excitement in Xue Rengui's expression. Along the way, I saw countless bodies of Xue yantuo, Datang and Huihe people, and their faces were tense.

"General Xue..." A deputy general around him was so noisy that Xue Rengui came back to him and asked him what was the matter.

After such a long time of fierce fighting, once it calms down, people's spirit and physical strength are seriously overdrawn. At this time, fatigue begins to show, and even they seem to have no strength to speak.

"General, look..." The deputy general pointed not far away and said, "there is a small group of Uighur cavalry over there who have followed us for several miles."

Xue Rengui looks over there. There was a group of Uighur cavalry following them. They could not see clearly in the night. They could only recognize their traditional white hat and flag. The number of them was about one or two hundred.

In the battle just now, Xue Rengui took the lead and always rushed to the front. Xue yantuo's army collapsed for thousands of miles because of the death of the thirteen strong generals and the fall of the barbarians, so the Tang army and the Huihe army were killed together. However, the only one who followed Xue Rengui to the front was his more than 3000 elite Yue Qi. That is to say, before Qin mubai pulled up his elite troops. The other generals of the Tang army were all looting and killing, while the Huihe people were mostly busy taking advantage of the fire to collect and suppress the prisoners and seize the weapons and horses.

It was with these 3000 elite soldiers that Xue Rengui drove out the 100000 troops of Xue yantuo for nearly 180 Li, killed the enemy and returned with numerous victories!

Early on, I didn't notice that a small ba'er Uighur cavalry followed him closely to kill the enemy.

"Since they are friends, please come and drive together! They are so few that they are afraid to meet Xue yantuo again. " Xue Rengui said.

The deputy general is No. We used to invite each other. Before long, the troops of Uighur came.

In the night, we couldn't see each other's characters clearly, and everyone was very tired, so Xue Rengui didn't say much and continued to command the troops. But four or five of the Huihe cavalry came to the central army.

"General Xue, do you have any medicine for healing and hemostasis in your army? I have a brother who is wounded, bleeding and dying. Please help me

When the other general said these two words, everyone was surprised.

For one thing, her Chinese is as mellow as a native Chinese; for another, it's a female voice, and it's very nice!

"Woman?" Xue Rengui was also stunned.

"Yes." The general on the other side, just like everyone else, was covered with blood and his face was ferocious. In the night, he couldn't see his face clearly. She said, "my name is asna Xuelian. It's not the snow of snow lotus, but the blood. "

After that, she put up the brim of her hat and dyed it with blood.

"Ashina blood lotus..." Xue Rengui whispered and said with a smile, "are you from the asna family?"

"Yes." Xuelian said, "the head of the Ashina clan is my father."

"Are you the daughter of horouh Khan?" Xue Rengui was surprised.

Because Tuli, the father of heluohu, was a Turkic Khan before, and heluohu inherited the title and official position given to his father by the Tang Dynasty, and was the spiritual leader among the tribes in the grassland, so people used to call heluohu "Khan", but it was no longer the actual Khan in the past, just out of politeness.

"Not bad..." Xuelian took a deep breath, spitting out his killing intention and anger, and said, "Yi man bullies the weak, has no faith and righteousness, destroys my race, kills my father, and I will die with him! Tumindu, the chief of the Huihe tribe, is the uncle of my half sister. If it had not been for my sister and I came to visit my uncle in Huihe a few days ago, I'm afraid I would have been killed by Yi Nan as well! "

"Oh So it is Xue Rengui thought about it after listening to it. It seems that the interpersonal relationship is quite complicated.

Seeing Xue Rengui's suspicious face, Xuelian said, "my biological mother is a Royal Princess surnamed Li who was married to my father in the Tang Dynasty. So, I can speak Chinese and write Chinese characters General, is there any wound medicine? Saving people is like fighting a fire

"Come and help the wounded of the friendly army at once!"

"No! ——”

Xuelian breathed a sigh and drove her horse around Xue Rengui. She looked at Xue Rengui's invincible halberd and said, "general Xue, you are the incomparable general in the world!"

"I don't deserve it." Xue Rengui said hastily, "there is only one person in the world who can be called" God General "- Qin Shubao, the Duke of the Tang Dynasty!""In my opinion, the general's bravery is better than Qin Shubao's! With thousands of armour, he killed 100000 troops and retreated. He was defeated for hundreds of miles. Although the ancient name of such feats is out of reach

"Yes..." Xue Rengui answered faintly without saying much.

"The general doesn't seem to be happy with this big win?" Blood lotus outspoken curiosity asks a way.

"How lucky..." Xue Rengui smiles slightly, with deep and confused eyes.

"General Why do you show sadness and sadness? " Blood lotus is more curious, still single knife straight into of ask a way.

"I don't want to create a lot of killing. I just I want to go home. " With a slight smile, Xue Rengui turned to her and said, "we, more than 10000 people, just want to go home. But there are many people who can't go home. Including Xue yantuo people and Huihe people. "

Xuelian opens her eyes and looks at Xue Rengui in surprise. She is confused for a long time. The moonlight shines her smart eyes brighter than the stars at night.

"General With a heart of great compassion, he is a real hero Blood lotus suddenly way.

"Why do you say that?" Xue Rengui couldn't help laughing, "I didn't think so much. I just remember what a friend said to me in the past. Although "it's OK to stop killing by killing", everyone has his relatives and friends, his wife, children, old and young, and looks forward to relying on the door It's not a crime to kill one person, but it's a great sin to hurt a hundred people! I don't know how these brothers who died in the erhun River Grassland will explain to their families when they go back! "

A word, said nearby these iron bone clank Tang soldiers. tears trickling down one 's cheeks.

When xueliandun was shocked, she said: "general Xue, you are all real warriors! Your tears will move the gods When my uncle and I have finished cleaning up the battlefield, I will ask him to collect the bones of Tang soldiers and cremate them, and let the southward wind send them home, OK

"What?" Xue Rengui didn't come back for a moment.

"It's the end of summer, and the most southerly wind blows to the Central Plains, isn't it?" Xuelian said, "in our Ashina tribe, there is a legend that if someone dies in a foreign land, let his ashes go with the wind, and his soul will find the way home and reunite with his family. This is what the Central Plains call "falling leaves returning to their roots.". I think it's the south wind these days. Why don't we take these heroes home by the river erhun tomorrow and the day after tomorrow? "

“……” Xue Rengui pondered for a long time and nodded gently.

Two days later, a raging fire broke out along the erhun River, singing the military song of the Tang Dynasty - "boundless sea, kiss my family.". Rolling dust, leisurely my cave! It's a man's blood.... "

Powerful, far away!

Solemn and stirring, desolate!

The south wind roared on the grassland, and the soldiers of the Tang army waved their ashes and called out the names of their dead brothers. Their voices were shrill and vigorous

"Guanzhong Xianyang Zhao Qingshan, home!"

"Luoyang has been granted Chengde and gone home!"

"I wish you success in Lingnan. I'm home!"

Xue Rengui was riding on the horse. He had no bloodstain after the fierce battle of that day. The white horse and silver robe were majestic, but his brows were always locked, and his eyes were looking at the south.

Ashina blood lotus changed back to the grassland's daughter dress, standing beside Xue Rengui. Her delicate facial features and slightly wheat skin show special softness. It is full of vigor and ambition.

On the grassland, she and her half sister are first-class beauties. It is said that this time, the reason for the blood bath of the Ashina ethnic group by the Yi man was "the proposal was rejected" -- he wanted to marry the Xuelian sisters at the same time, but he Luohu didn't agree, which ignited the fuse of the war between the two ethnic groups.

Although it's just an excuse, it's enough to see the beauty of Xuelian sisters.

"What is the general thinking?"

The bloody lotus, which had been stripped of its military uniform, was obviously much more tender than when the battlefield first appeared that day. Nevertheless, she is quite different from most of the gentle and pure women in the Central Plains. She does not have half of the crumple and raw between getting along with men. Huo lierectum says that she can bow and shoot more than a man. She can survive such a fierce battle and continue to lead a group of men, which is enough to show her special excellence.

Two days later, Xue Rengui, who has been living and dying together, has been drunk with her for three times, so he almost called himself a brother and fell asleep.

"Homesick." Xue Rengui's answer is very simple.

"Miss your wife and children?"

Xue Rengui smiles, looks at Xuelian and says, "I have two families. One is Lanzhou, where my wife and children live. I miss them, of course, but they will be well taken care of there. I'm not worried. What I care about most is another home... "

"Where?"

"The Tang Dynasty, the great army of guanxi."

“……”

"We are a group of lost children. I want to go home. " Xue Rengui sighed slowly and said, "after losing Gaochang, we fled all the way and turned to kill people. We only wanted to go home. But. I'm afraid to go home again... "

"Why?" Xuelian wondered."I have no face to go back and see you face to face..." At this point, Xue Rengui's eyes were red.

"Don't you dare to meet Qin mubai?" Blood lotus should come down, sigh a way, "the death of Yi Guo Gong, can't blame you. You can take these brothers out, come here, and then go back to Lanzhou. We're doing our best. "

"I let him down. That's the truth. There's no reason why it's irrefutable. " Xue Rengui pursed his lips tightly, took a deep breath, sighed again, and said, "he treated me as if I were a brother and never reserved. When he left, he asked me to serve my father on his behalf, but I did..."

"General..." Seeing Xue Rengui's eyes closed and shaking his head, she couldn't go on. Xuelian was a little dejected and said softly. "I haven't met Qin mubai, but he must be a great man who can make a hero like you push his heart and heart to the ground. And although I am far away in the grassland, I have heard his legend I'd like to hear with my own ears how wonderful the pipa he plays is

Xue Rengui is silent, blood lotus sings alone. The soldiers of the Tang army threw ashes and sang military songs. This scene makes many Huihe people quietly stop and watch, quietly shed tears.

"General, when the war is over, I will take revenge. I'll go to Lanzhou with you. " Blood lotus suddenly says.

"What?" Xue Rengui was stunned for a moment. This woman is always something unexpected. He did not say this in a soliciting tone, but in a very clear "I have decided" attitude.

"My tribe is gone, and my home is gone. After revenge, I'll go back to my mother's home I often hear my mother say how magnificent Chang'an is, how magnificent the imperial city is, how prosperous the Central Plains is, how wonderful, but I left Chang'an when I was born. I came to the grassland and never went back. " Blood lotus says, "general is not to return to Lanzhou, I go with you."

“……” Xue Rengui was almost speechless for a moment, so he had to say, "Lanzhou is a barren and dangerous military town frontier fortress, not the Central Plains in your imagination. You'd better not go

"Do you think I'm the kind of person who's afraid of war?" The blood lotus smiles, the light blue eye pupil of the mixed blood reveals self-confidence and mischievous, say, "maybe. I can still be a general under your commander! "

"Stop talking nonsense, why do you want female generals in the army?"

"Why, look down on me?" Blood lotus apricot eye one stares, willow eyebrow vertical Yang, "or, fight with me again 300 rounds?"

"Forget it..." Xue Rengui couldn't help but smile and shake his head.

These two days, Xuelian has something to do, so she pulls Xue Rengui to fight immediately. This woman, with amazing courage and strong force, seems to be branded with the mark of "wolf", a Turkic circle. She is wild, explosive, lethal and aggressive. She will do her best in every battle, as if she will fight to the death. She doesn't know what it means to "stop when you click". She has to wait until Xue Rengui has no choice but to knock her off the horse to completely subdue her Fang is willing to admit defeat.

In two days, she lost 18 battles in a row, but the more she fought, the braver she was.

"Then you go to Lanzhou with me!" Blood lotus is the way to pursue while winning.

Xue Rengui could only shake his head and smile bitterly. His eyes brightened and he said with a smile, "do you want to go to the Central Plains or Look at my third brother Qin? "

"All of them!" The blood lotus is straightforward and unavoidably way, "want to go to the Central Plains. It's true. I want to see Qin mubai, who is famous all over the world and deeply impressed by you. That's what I want in my heart. There's nothing to hide. "

"What do you want to see him for?" Xue Rengui couldn't help laughing.

"I just want to meet..." The blood lotus finally blushed a red, but the tone still didn't show soft, sonorous way, "I want to know whether he is in vain, or real material. Why should a brave general like you treat him like a God? "

"You are mistaken. It's not like worshiping gods... " Xue Rengui said with a smile, "it's trust and respect."

"That's what you mean." Blood lotus also giggles and says, "brother Rengui, I'm as good as you are at first sight. If you are so congenial, why don't you become brother and sister? To tell you the truth, the daughters of the grassland all love the warriors who are good at fighting, but I don't! Because. I am not inferior to those so-called warriors, I am not rare! ——But I'm willing to do anything with them! ——Brother Rengui, you are the bravest warrior I have ever seen. You must be my brother and sister

"Ha ha! Good Xue Rengui couldn't help laughing, "even if you are a brother, you can do it!"

“…… Brother and sister! It's brother and sister

On that night, countless bonfires were set on fire in the Huihe tribal camp, and the fragrance of milk wine and barbecue and the sound of Huxian singing filled the night sky.

Xue yantuo was defeated in the first World War, and the Huihe people, who had gained countless benefits, were elated and full of confidence. I personally celebrated for Xue Rengui.

Xue Rengui didn't mean to do these things, but it was hard to be generous, so the guest had to obey the Lord.

At the bonfire banquet, Xue Rengui and Xuelian kneel together under the totem of the wolf clan and the Dragon flag of the Central Plains, and become brothers and sisters of different surnames. At this time, Xuelian told him that her original name was Xuelian, which was given to her by Tuli Khan, her grandfather who was still alive in Chang'an. But later, when she grew up, Xuelian thought that the word "Xue" was too weak to suit her personality, so she changed it to the name of now rebellious and sharp. For this reason, her parents could not dissuade her and had to let her.The half sister, Ashina Xiyan, who grew up with Xuelian, has a very different personality from Xuelian, that is, pure, gentle, kind and diligent, which coincides with the temperament of traditional women in Central China. In Xuelian's words, her sister "is just like a lamb in Uncle tumidu's barn.".

Xuelian and Xiyan, two great beauties on the grassland, sit with Xue Rengui one on the left and the other on the right. They take turns to serve him, but they envy those Huihe men. But these Huihe people can only be convinced that beauty loves heroes, which is a tradition in the Central Plains, but it is like an unwritten iron rule in the grassland!

The most beautiful beauty, of course, can only accompany the bravest warrior!

"Brother Rengui, why don't you marry my sister?" Cold not Ding, blood lotus burst out again let Xue Rengui unexpected, almost spray wine words.

"You Don't make a fool of yourself Seeing Xi Yan blushing at one side, Xue Rengui didn't know what to say for a moment, "I have a wife and children!"

"So what! It's normal for a good man to have many wives. " Blood lotus does not care about the way. "Sister, tell brother Rengui the truth! Tell him how much you like him! In addition to him, you will never find another man like him who makes you fall in love at first sight! ——And I also think that only brother Rengui is worthy of such a beauty as my sister! "

The folk customs of the grassland are fierce and wild, and the daughter of the grassland is unrestrained and magnanimous. But when it comes to men and women, I'm afraid that apart from the blood lotus, any woman in the world will be a little shy.

Xiyan is no exception. At this time, is already low answer head speechless.

"Blood lotus. I'm angry with you for talking nonsense again Xue Rengui put his wine cup on the table and said, "your sister is in her prime. Where can't you find a great hero as a puppet? Xue is an unknown person of his native place, and he already has a wife and children, and he can humiliate and condescend! "

Xuelian is about to argue. Xiyan stands up in a hurry and bows down to give a gift. "Sister, don't want to say Brother Rengui, excuse me

Then he ran away in a hurry.

Xueliandun is anxious to chase her. Xue Rengui holds her down and says, "if you want to make mischief again, don't blame your brother for turning over on the spot!"

"Er!..." Blood lotus has to give up, hate bite lips, very not reconciled.

The next morning, Xue Rengui was about to get out of the felt tent and ride to exercise his muscles and bones. He bumped into Xuelian and came at a fast pace. With a happy face, he hurried to the big leader's felt tent and said, "brother Rengui, hurry up! Good news, great news

"What's the good news?" Xue Rengui was so nervous that he said, "you don't want to make a fool of yourself again

"No, that's good news!" Blood lotus almost cheered and cried, "Master Wang of the Tang Dynasty is here! Bingzhou governor Li Ji's main force is coming! You know what? Master Wang of the Tang Dynasty is coming to put down Xue yantuo's rebellion! "

"Master Wang of the Tang Dynasty, the main force of Li Ji!" Hearing these words, Xue Rengui was excited on the spot!

"Where is it? Take me --"
