Chapter 2708 Moonlit Night
For a long time, King Hunxie has been isolated by Wang Ting and the other three kings. As a result, the ambitious Hemul has never been able to show his talents and get a glimpse of the long-awaited position.
But just ten days ago, he received a secret letter from the high priest who was in charge of the tribe on behalf of Xinyue.
Its contents delighted him. The high priest seeks alliances. The reason is very simple. Because of the princess's incident, the Crescent Tribe was isolated and pressured by the Golden Horde Royal Court, and was very embarrassed.
At this time, the high priest was in great need of foreign aid, so he thought of King Hunxie who was in the same situation as himself, and proposed an alliance between the two parties. To this end, he would send an envoy to escort 10,000 cattle and sheep as gifts, and the escort team would also arrive in the future. arrival.
The Crescent Moon Tribe has the most fertile and vast pastures in the entire Golden Horde, and it also has a hundred thousand fine knights. With them, King Hunxie will become the most powerful among the four kings. There is also a very important point. The high priest represents the messenger of the Immortal Heaven, the psychic White Wolf God. He is the highest-status heaven priest in shamanism. His reputation and influence are huge, especially among the people at the bottom. His appeal is extremely amazing. King Hunxie even felt that getting the high priest was basically equivalent to getting half of the Golden Tent.
With rich supplies, sound intelligence, a strong army, and an ally, how could King Hunxie not be happy? He drank too much because of this happiness, and it was already after midnight when he returned to the camp.
King Hunxie, who fell asleep, did not notice at all that there was something wrong with the golden knife he hung in the tent.
Soon it was three o'clock in the morning, and a group of soldiers, their horses' hooves wrapped in thick cloth, took advantage of the rich night sky and galloped towards the east.
The leader was Prince Hekuotai. He had stern eyes and held a huge golden scimitar in his hand, with murderous intent almost radiating from his body.
Interestingly, in his tent, there was also a Hekuotai lying there. If it weren't for the thick blanket, a careful person would be able to tell that this person seems to be much shorter than He Kuotai.
Beside him were actually six of the eight powerful barbarians that Jiang Fan had conquered, and the leader was Batu.
This group of 8,000 soldiers and horses was naturally not Hekuotai's men. They were from Dulun. As for Hekuotai's cavalry, they seemed to be still sleeping, and there was nothing unusual in the camp.
After Yin Shi, the cavalry quietly appeared on a hill. Hekuotai looked at the bonfire dimly lit in the darkness in the distance, and his voice was cold.
"The time has come. Let's attack from both sides. We must kill Qi Sha and the others in one fell swoop. No one will be spared! Is there any problem in the king's tent?"
Batu sneered: "Don't worry, young prince, King Xiaoyao will have no problem in doing things. Your father will not be able to tell it anyway. Only the first two items of the secret letter are true. The prince said this is called inertial thinking."
That's right, Qi Sha didn't write any letter at all. It wasn't the first time he had done something, so why bother?
However, it is difficult for Hemu'er to doubt it. After all, this time there are more matters involving Fengjia Xingluo and Hu Yunling, so it is normal to say hello first.
Only Jiang Fan knew that Hu Yunling did not return to the grassland at all. He was indeed trying to summon his old troops, but it was never that easy. Ever since he learned that Hu Yunling had defected to Northern Xinjiang, Jiang Fan had been reminding Hu Guanshan. He felt that Hu Yunling was bound to do something. as.
As expected, the long-awaited news finally reached Mortal Residence. Hu Yunling tried to recruit his old subordinates to seek support from King Hunxie and plot to regain the Hu family in the future.
Jiang Fan's instructions were very simple. Just ask Hu Guanshan to set up strict defenses so that Hu Yunling could not succeed. After containing Hu Yunling in this way, the Hu family quietly sent 3,000 soldiers and horses to follow Qi Sha and others. Once the opportunity comes, they will cooperate with everyone. Lun's people attacked from both sides.
Among them, the one who needs the most attention is Qi Sha. This person's cultivation level is extremely unusual. According to Hekuotai, after the Fuli Conference, his cultivation level has improved by leaps and bounds by devouring countless giant wolf essences and blood, and he has already reached the level of a quasi-earth immortal.
Once this person leaves the group, he will go straight to the royal court to meet King Hunxie, which may ruin the plan.
Therefore, Hekuotai brought over his family's Quasi-Earth Immortal Realm and the two strongest Holy Realms in order to kill Qi Sha.
Staring at the camp in the distance, Hekuotai's eyes flickered, and finally he gritted his teeth and shouted one word in a low voice: "Kill!"
Five thousand fine cavalry suddenly ran wildly, rushing towards the opponent like a hurricane. The strong horses galloped wildly, the distance of three miles was reached in an instant, and the battle suddenly broke out.
Qi Sha was indeed not given in vain. Although he was caught off guard and suffered heavy losses for a while, he was able to organize and escort the cavalry as quickly as possible to launch defense.
"He Kuotai!" Qi Sha saw the incoming enemy clearly, his eyes flashed with green light, and he roared angrily: "You are so bold!"
He Kuotai sneered: "Thief, do you think my father can't see your ambition? I deliberately suppressed me just to lower your defense. Now is the time to kill you!"
"Fart!" Of course Qi Sha didn't believe it. He swung his sword and swept away more than twenty people.
Hekuotai laughed loudly and raised the golden scimitar in his hand: "Thief, do you recognize it?"
Qi Sha was stunned: "Golden knife?"
Hekuotai was slashing and laughing wildly: "It's my father's golden sword, why don't you give up!"
King Hemur's token immediately affected many barbarians in Qi Sha's team, and the morale of the army was in chaos for a while.
"I don't believe it! When I capture you and meet the king, I will definitely expose your thief's conspiracy!"
Qi Sha's eyes flashed fiercely, and he brazenly ordered his subordinates to launch a fierce attack on Hekuotai.
But at this moment, he suddenly noticed a huge chaos behind him. He turned his head and looked in shock, only to see a cavalry attack behind him.
Under the attack from the front and back, in just a few dozen breaths, most of Qi Sha's men and horses were lost.
"Follow me to break through!"
Seeing the situation was not good, Qi Sha was quite decisive. Green light flashed in his pupils. With a roar, he actually took the Horse-Faced King and the four giant wolves out of the team, resolutely abandoned these treasures, and fled to the king's tent.
It was impossible not to give up. They lost a lot of people in a hurry. In addition, the golden sword affected the morale of the army. They were attacked from all sides. If they continued to fight, it would only waste some time for the other side. The defeat was already very obvious.
However, Qi Sha absolutely did not believe that Hemur would do this. Others did not know, but he knew best what was going on between him and Hemur.
Although he could not change the situation, it was extremely difficult to stop a strong man like him from escaping alone.
Under the full protection of his subordinates, he and the Horse-Faced King forced a group of masters to soar into the sky, and disappeared into the darkness in the distance after a few rises and falls.
Hekuotai actually didn't care and continued to command the charge.
Sure enough, before the two ran far, a long whistle was heard. Under the full moon, a skinny man holding a bone staff crossed the sky and landed in front of the two with two powerful saints with terrifying auras: "Where do you want to go?"
Qi Sha's pupils shrank sharply: "Is it you?"
The man's eyes were deep: "My Hekuotai is the legitimate son of the king and the future master of the king's tent. Qi Sha... you think too much..."
Qi Sha sneered: "Half-step earth immortal, the strength is indeed good, but you can't stop the two of us!"
The man held the bone staff horizontally: "How do you know if you don't try."
Qi Sha, who knew very well that the other party was planning to move, didn't want to waste his breath at all. He roared directly and swung his sword to cut out a ten-foot sword aura: "Go to hell!"
Just when Hekuotai whispered to kill, the Hunxie King's Court also suddenly changed.
Another Hekuotai had woken up at some point and led his 8,000 cavalry to the king's tent ten miles away. Although he was shorter, he didn't see much difference when riding on a horse.
