The Yan family caravan set out on the journey again, and to Yan Qing's surprise, the luck along the way was too good, and it was that he had not encountered a horse thief once, which was completely different from the danger depicted by Uncle Zhang. In this regard, Zhang Wenyu was also speechless, but his heart was a little heavy. As the saying goes, the autumn wind does not move the cicada first, the wind rises at the end of Qingping, these horse thieves are actually the weather vane on the grassland, when the horse thieves have disappeared one after another, it means that the grassland has changed, and something big will happen. But they had no way back, so they could only continue to move forward.

However, Li Xuandu knew in his heart that in addition to the fact that there was indeed an accident within the royal court, Ning Yi's deliberate restraint of horse thieves was also one of the reasons. After all, Lao Khan's poor health is a top secret, even if it is Zhao Zheng's side, it is also through Qin Xiang's military report, as well as the news transmitted back by the secret son of the royal court, vaguely speculated, and there is no real evidence, so Li Xuandu has to personally go to the Golden Horde Palace.

Li Xuandu mobilized Shi Wuyue and Ning Yi to go to the royal court this time, not to ask the two to sneak into the royal court, but to wait outside the royal court, and if something happens, they will answer Li Xuandu. As the saying goes, if Li Xuandu is injured in the royal court, and there are two great masters of the Heavenly and Human Realm to respond, he can also leave calmly, but if there is only Li Xuandu alone, he is afraid that he will lose his life on the grassland.

Although there have been a few snowfalls in Liaodong and the grasslands since the beginning of winter, the grasslands are vast, and there is not snow everywhere, let alone white disasters everywhere. After a long snowy journey, the caravan entered a route that had never been covered in snow. It's just that after winter, the water withers and the grass is yellow, and if the fire breaks out at this time, the wildfire on the grassland is faster than the horse, so you should also pay attention.

The caravan stopped at a water source, and from here it traveled more than 300 miles north to officially enter the core of the Golden Horde. In the past few days, Li Xuandu has been walking against the wind at night, inspecting the surroundings, and actually found traces of the Liaodong cavalry hundreds of miles away, which made him greatly surprised, could it be that the Liaodong iron cavalry had turned from defense to attack and invaded the territory of the Golden Horde? Or did the condition of the King of the Steppe Khan become more and more serious, so that the Golden Horde army was disheartened and had to retreat, while Qin Xiang took this opportunity to march in a big way, and wanted to take the opportunity to inflict heavy damage on the Golden Horde army.

Thinking about it, Li Xuandu still prefers the latter.

From ancient times to the present, the overall strength of the Central Plains is stronger than that of the grassland, but just like the fighting of the rivers and lakes, if the realm is not high, it will be invincible, so sometimes, the grassland army can also attack the Central Plains, and even seize the Central Plains when the Central Plains is weakened by civil strife. However, due to various reasons, Hu Lu did not have a hundred years of national fortune, and even if he could gain momentum for a while, he could not last.

The last time the grassland went south to seize the world, it was the last year of the Great Jin Dynasty, but about ten years, and then Emperor Taizu of the Great Wei Dynasty started in the troubled times, expelled the Golden Horde army, and established the Great Wei. Later, Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong made several northern expeditions, forcing the Golden Horde to move to the royal court several times, the most dangerous one, only the Khan and dozens of other horsemen escaped, and the Great Wei captured hundreds of people. However, this is also the last big victory of the Central Plains. Later, the various guards and capitals set up by Taizu and Emperor Taizong of the Great Wei Dynasty in the grassland were abandoned one by one. At the beginning of the Great Wei Dynasty, it was slightly sealed, starting from Liaodong in the east, Kunlun in the west, Baoling in the south, and the north from the moraine, 11,750 miles from east to west, and 10,904 miles from north to south. Since Renzong abandoned Daning, migrated to the east, Xuanzong moved to Kaiping in the monolith, Shizong abandoned Hami and Hetao, then the east from Liaohai, west to Xiliang, south to Qiongya, north to Yunshuo, more than 10,000 miles from east to west, north and south 10,000 miles. By the time of Mu Zong, the Great Wei had completely turned to passive defense, and only then did the Golden Horde march from the northwest to capture Liang, and the Qin Erzhou troops approached the western capital. Even if Qin Xiang later recovered Qinzhou and Liangzhou, it was only a recovery, and he was still trapped in the situation at the time and failed to counterattack. It can be said that this time the Liaodong Iron Cavalry invaded the territory of the Golden Horde, and it has been more than 100 years since the last time.

If nothing else, Zhao Zheng will report to the imperial court to ask for credit for Qin Xiang, and the imperial court said that Qin Xiang should not be reinstated, and in order to check and balance Zhao Zheng, he will either summon Qin Xiang to Beijing, or allow high-ranking officials to create confrontation within Liaodong. However, if Qin Xiang couldn't think of other ideas, these methods would be useless after all.

Li Xuandu looked to the north, and above this line, there were several guards abandoned by the Great Wei Dynasty, and further north, there was the former site of the Golden Horde. The reason why it is said to be the old site is because it was here that the general of the Great Wei Dynasty broke the Golden Horde and captured the Khan King, but the Khan King could only flee in a hurry under the escort of the cowardly Xue elite. For the Golden Horde, it was a place of shame.

Today's old Khan is the great-great-grandson of the Khan King, who has come to the old site of the royal court several times to worship his ancestors, and in his prime, he is determined to be ashamed, and he has the Golden Horde army to the south several times. Finally, in his twilight years, he attacked the Xijing City and forced the Central Plains Imperial Court to sue for peace. This is the most proud thing in the life of the Golden Horde Khan, and it is also regarded as a shame of his ancestors.

At this moment, Li Xuandu suddenly felt a violent fluctuation of heaven and earth vitality.

In the rivers and lakes of the Central Plains, the real Great Masters of the Heavenly and Human Realms are not at a critical juncture, and they rarely make a big battle that moves mountains and seas, so it is like a candle flame at night in the eyes of other Great Masters of the Heavenly and Human Realm, which is very dazzling, and it is easy to reveal their whereabouts and provoke right and wrong. Therefore, there is an unwritten rule among the great masters of the Heavenly and Human Realm, the more you don't see the fireworks when you shoot, and the more you understate it, the more clever it is.

However, in the Golden Horde, there seems to be no such rule.

Li Xuandu's heart moved, and he looked left and right that no one was paying attention to him, and his figure disappeared in a flash.

Hundreds of miles away from the caravan, there was a group of dozens of wandering cavalry, in addition to the usual cavalry equipment, these people also carried three-eyed guns. The Three-Eyed Gun is a short firearm made of fine iron. It is shaped as a combination of three bamboo-shaped single guns, and each tube has a small hole on the outside. When using, add gunpowder to the gunpowder tube, and finally fill the steel ball or cast iron block, crushed iron sand, etc., add the firewire at the small hole, ignite the firewire when using, detonate the loaded gunpowder to shoot the projectile, and the three gunpowder can be fired in turns. There is a handle base at the tail of the three-eyed gun, and wooden poles of different lengths are installed to hold it to ensure the safety of the shooter.

The Three-Eyed Gun was very common in the Great Wei army, but its disadvantage was that it had a short range, it was not comparable to a bow and crossbow, and the reloading speed was too slow. However, it has been improved over the years, adding flint to the three-eyed gun, as long as the flint is knocked with a firing pin, there is no need to burn the fire rope, plus the three-eyed gun itself is not light, and it is made of fine iron, which can be used as a hammer in close combat. It's just that because of the high cost of construction, the slightest carelessness is the danger of exploding, and it cannot be as shoddy as a sword, so it cannot be equipped with the army on a large scale, and it is only used by elite cavalry.

At this time, these cavalry were covered with dust and blood, and almost all of them were wounded, as if they had just experienced a big battle.

Not far behind him, it was not the Golden Horde cavalry, who were also on horseback, but a group of Golden Horde masters walking on foot.

There are not many of them, they are dressed in different ways, both men and women, but all of them are masters of superior martial arts, and they actually make this elite team suffer heavy losses at night.

The so-called night is not collected, which is not only a sentry in the army, but also because he is active outside all night, so it is called not collected at night.

Logically speaking, scouts should disperse their actions, but at this time, because the Liaodong army was in the stage of pursuing and counterattacking, Qin Xiang organized these elite scouts into several elite rangers of more than 100 people, and tailed behind the Golden Horde army, like appendages. Let the Golden Horde army be miserable, and have the intention to exterminate these elite cavalry, but they will be delayed and caught up by the Liaodong cavalry.

It wasn't until this noble guard appeared that these nights were not retracted.

If ordinary family members are the elite of the army, then the night is the elite of the elite. More than 100 elite horsemen do not collect at night, everyone has the cultivation of entering the divine realm, and some people have the cultivation of the Dan realm, and because of the long-term battle formation, their real combat power is often higher than their own original realm, coupled with the good military array attack, with tacit understanding, even if they meet the master of the true realm, they can also try to besiege and kill, but they never expected that there was a great master of the heavenly and human realm hidden in this team, which made them suffer heavy losses. This Great Grandmaster of the Heavenly and Human Realm was not in a hurry to kill the killer, like a cat playing with a mouse, following behind, letting his subordinates slowly chase and kill.
