Chapter 395 Betrayal
After Su Zhizhi said this, the other villagers reacted.
When they were in Chang'an before, they attacked the Tiele Khan's camp at night, and Su Zhizhi took away 10,000 horses.
At that time, Su Zhizhi was riding the horse King.
However, Su Zhizhi did not tie up Ma Wang. The next day, she gave Ma Wang a bath and applied medicine to him, and then Ma Wang left by himself.
Su Zhizhi said that the Horse King might have gone back to the grasslands in the north.
Unexpectedly, the Horse King appeared at this time today and helped them at the critical moment.
The group rushed back to the Da Qi military camp without stopping.
In the Da Qi military camp, Xue Yucheng took Xue Che and several other generals to meet Hulong and took away a group of troops, but there were still many soldiers in the camp.
When they returned to the military camp, the Da Qi soldiers were surprised to see Kong Wu coming back and burst into cheers.
Because Kong Wu's physique and performance on the battlefield were too conspicuous, many Da Qi soldiers had an impression of Kong Wu.
Seeing Kong Wu was rescued, the soldiers were very happy and gathered around to look at him:
"Hercules is back!"
“Look!”
"It was the surprise attack team that rescued Hercules."
Kong Wu scratched his head, a shy smile on his face.
Doctor Yu also came out, looking ready to examine their injuries.
Fortunately, they were only covered in blood and dust and had some minor skin injuries, and were not seriously injured.
However, they were really exhausted after all this ordeal, which was equivalent to fighting a battle in the enemy camp.
From the time we set out at midnight last night until now, we haven't had a moment's rest.
They each returned to their tents, washed their faces, changed their clothes, and rested.
Even Po found a place to fold his wings properly.
Su Zhizhi got off the horse but didn't rest yet. She touched the mane on the horse king's neck.
The Horse King still looked very arrogant. He ran to the entrance of the military camp and stopped, refusing to go in, as if to show that he was unwilling to submit to anyone.
"I'll treat you to some fodder." Su Zhizhi brought out a pile of fodder from the military camp.
The horse king gave him some face and bent his neck to eat the grass.
"You've helped us a lot. We have plenty of fodder here. If you come again next time, I'll treat you to some."
Su Zhizhi spoke very generously.
Su Zhizhi's sincere expression was reflected in the horse king's calm and huge eyes.
A few low cries came out of its throat, and the horse's head rubbed against Su Zhizhi's arm.
Then, like last time, after it finished eating the grass, it turned around and walked away across the field that had not yet turned green.
Su Zhizhi watched it leave.
Wu Yingniang came over and said, "Zhizhi, why don't you go and rest?"
Su Zhizhi looked in the direction where the Horse King left: "I'm seeing him off."
Wu Yingniang: "If you really like it, Doctor Yu and Hua Erniang will find a way to help you keep it."
Su Zhizhi: "But it told me that it doesn't like being here. No matter how nice we are to it, it won't want to be here."
Wu Yingniang laughed: "How did it tell you?"
Su Zhizhi and Wu Yingniang walked back to the tent together, and she also laughed:
"Its eyes told me."
Golden light danced on Su Zhizhi's eyelashes:
"Its eyes can speak, just like Kong Wu's eyes, very beautiful."
…
"ah--"
“My eyes—!”
In the smoke-filled Hu army camp, the Hu people were wailing.
Helian Wuqin clenched his fists and howled even louder than anyone else.
His eyes were first red and swollen from the poisonous smoke, and then irritated by the bird droppings. At this time, his eyes were already ulcerated and somewhat scary.
The doctors in the army were brought out to treat Helian Wuqin.
When the doctor was cleaning the wound on Helian Wuqin's eye, Helian Wuqin cried out in pain, sweating profusely.
By the time the swelling-reducing medicine was applied, Helian Wuqin's clothes were soaked with sweat.
The Tiele Khan soldiers who went to chase Kong Wu came back and reported:
"General... they ran too fast, we..."
Helian Wuqin just felt that this group of people were all idiots who couldn't even catch up with the people they were chasing.
But no matter how unwilling he was, there was nothing he could do; he couldn't stay any longer.
He couldn't kill Hulong's son, but at least he killed many of Hulong's men and burned the food and supplies.
"Pass my order, retreat!"
Helian Wuqin evacuated with the remaining food and supplies.
The other side.
Hulong was already approaching the agreed place for peace talks with a large group of people.
The sun is particularly scorching today.
It's so vicious that it doesn't seem like this season.
Fine beads of sweat oozed from everyone's head.
Hu Long was thinking about the peace talks that would take place later, weighing what demands he could agree to temporarily and what was the maximum price they could pay.
He had something on his mind and his brows were furrowed.
Several soldiers chasing behind shouted "Khan" loudly, but he only heard it after several shouts.
The army stopped.
Tumsolma scolded:
"Aren't you guys guarding the barracks? What happened?"
One of the Hunxie soldiers said in panic:
"Khan! The Tiele Khan people suddenly betrayed us. Helian Wuqin didn't leave this morning. He led his men to kill our people and burn our food supplies..."
A layer of sharp frost instantly covered Hu Long's face:
"Helian Wuqin?!"
Tumso was already riding a horse and wielding a scimitar, chopping open the chariot driven by the Tiele Khan.
Bang! The side of the carriage was chopped off by Tumuso.
A servant wearing Helian Wuqin's clothes rolled out, but Helian Wuqin, who was supposed to be there, was nowhere to be seen.
Hu Long thought that Helian Wuqin would desert the battlefield, but he did not expect that Helian Wuqin would stab him in the back.
Because he couldn't think of any benefit from Helian Wuqin's doing this. Not only would it be unhelpful to the peace talks, but it would also make them enemies with Hunxie.
But Helian Wuqin did just that.
When the Tiele Khans saw that their plan was exposed, they drew their swords and started fighting with the Hunxie soldiers around them.
The originally orderly army fell into chaos in the blink of an eye.
The veins on Hu Long's forehead bulged, like a few earthworms lurking under the skin, jumping slightly as his teeth clenched tightly.
He ordered Tumuso to lead part of his troops to wipe out Tiele Khan's soldiers here, while he led the rest of the troops to fight back immediately.
The sound of angry horse hooves spread to the north.
By the time Hulong returned to the military camp, Helian Wuqin had already fled with his men.
The soldiers in the camp were busy putting out the fire.
The wind was strong and the sun was bright today, pushing the flames to spread and many tents were burned.
Hu Long saw that the tent where Kong Wu had been imprisoned had been burned down, leaving only the tent skeleton, with corpses lying on the skeleton.
He grabbed a soldier and asked sternly:
"Where's Bagta?!"
