After Lu Yu left Shangjing City, he headed west.

Phantom and Zichen didn't ask him where he was going.

Because we set out late, we could only travel a hundred miles before it became dark.

Accommodation is very convenient in Gyeonggi Province. The three of them found an inn to stay in a small town.

Lu Yu had just finished washing up in the room when he heard the phantom's warning voice.

"The prince is from Dongyi."

The Dongyi assassin who rushed in seemed to have no fighting spirit at all. After resisting the phantom's sword, he suddenly abandoned his sword and knelt down at Lu Yu.

"Greetings to the third prince, little Akiragi was sent by Her Majesty the Queen to protect the safety of the third prince.

We just found two Liguo people hiding outside the window and trying to blow poisonous smoke into the house. We have already killed them. "

Zichen lived in the house next door and came over after hearing the noise.

After taking one look at Akiragi, he went out the window to check.

After a while, two corpses came in from outside.

"The eunuch of the royal palace."

Lu Yu's head was covered with black lines and he was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood.

If an eunuch from the palace appears here, he must be sent by his good uncle to kill him.

What makes Lu Yu even more sad is that the person who helped him turned out to be a Dongyi person.

"I told you that I am not your third prince. Go back to Dongyi and tell Shangguan Feng that she recognized the wrong person."

Phantom kept holding his sword on the Dongyi man's neck, and Akiragi didn't resist.

Phantom looked at Lu Yu helplessly: "Your Majesty, do you want to kill him or not?"

Lu Yu's face became even more ugly.

He didn't have any psychological burden to kill the Dongyi people, but he still felt a little psychological burden to kill a Dongyi person who had just helped him and was captured without any resistance.

"Forget it, knock him out and throw him out."

Phantom knocked out Akiragi with a knife and threw him out of the window.

A black shadow appeared outside and dragged Akira wood away from the ground.

Phantom said: "There are more than one Dongyi people here."

Lu Yu sighed: "They want to kidnap me back to Dongyi, and they won't hurt me for the time being. Let's rest first, run away in the middle of the night, and find a way to get rid of these people."

Lu Yu originally wanted to go straight to Ganzhou to find Chu Tianjiao, but because of these tails, he had to make a big circle and go south.

I hope to find Chu Tianjiao after I get rid of the tracking.

Xiao Qi led [-] new soldiers from Ganzhou Camp to the border of Beihuang Grassland.

Furthermore, the five hundred cavalry sent to him by Chu Tianjiao ran out of the Gobi Desert and wandered around.

The nearby Beihu tribe was alarmed.

In the past few years, there were occasional tribes nearby who would take advantage of the shortage of food in winter to rush across the Liguo border and plunder some food and livestock.

The Beihu people generally did not dare to massacre Liguo people. They were afraid that Liguo's army would give up attacking Xirong and turn against them.

The population of Beihu was still too small, and the grassland was not fertile enough. Although the Dahe family established a royal court, they carefully restricted their subordinates to only expand westward and northward, and not to engage in direct war with Li Guo.

It has to be said that Daheshi Moji is a wise man among the Hu people. The strategy he formulated has allowed Beihu to grow insignificantly for many years in the gap between the confrontation between Xirong and Liguo, and continue to develop and strengthen its reserve strength.

Qiao Xing and Wu Guang were being detained in the royal court of Beihu at this time.

After they parted ways with Chu Tianjiao, they headed north. When they passed by large tribes, they traded and exchanged the goods they brought with them for Beihu's horses.

When the number of horses reaches a thousand, they will naturally attract the covetousness of the barbarians.

Chu Tianjiao gave the caravan a hundred cavalry to stop several small-scale robberies.

But when a powerful householder from Beihu came forward to seize the horses, Qiao Xing knew something was wrong.

According to the Hu people's organizational system, a big householder has at least [-] Hu cavalry under his name.

Even if there were fewer people in Beihu and the organization was a bit weak, at a glance, there were more than 3000 people brought by this big family to surround the caravan.

It would obviously be unwise to fight hard at this time.

Qiao Xing asked the one hundred cavalry to break out immediately and return to Ganzhou to report the news, while he waved the Chu family's military flag.

Tian Huan, the leader of a hundred cavalry, was unwilling to retreat. Qiao Xing said, "Only if you leave can we save our horses and supplies."

Qiao Xing, Wu Guang and Chu Tianjiao had deduced the situation they encountered many times when they were in Ganzhou.

Tian Huan naturally knew that Qiao Xing's order was correct, so he had no choice but to lead a hundred cavalry and break out towards the weak point of the Beihu people.

These one hundred cavalrymen were all experienced light cavalrymen, with one person and two horses, and their breakout momentum was unstoppable.

Except for three people who fell off their horses when they were blocked, the other 97 riders all broke through successfully.

The big man was quite knowledgeable and recognized the descending tiger flag that symbolized the Chu family's army from the country.

Coupled with the bravery of these one hundred Qingqi, Da Danghu hesitated and did not directly order Qiao Xing and others to be shot.

The entire caravan was captured.

Qiao Xing showed the purchase order issued by Chu Tianjiao in the name of Ganzhou Prefect, and the letter written to Dahe Shimoji, King of Northern Hu, in the name of Chu Family Army.

Beihu did not have his own written language, and this wealthy man could not understand what was written on the documents.

Qiao Xing had no choice but to dictate the reasons why the caravan entered Beihu to exchange supplies for horses, and explained that the general of the Chu family had a letter to bring to the King of Beihu.

Wu Guang, the person in charge of the Third Prince's caravan, showed the remaining tea and silk in the goods to the big man, and claimed that these goods were used by the Chu general to exchange horses with King Beihu. supplies.

This powerful householder may not be afraid of Liguo people, but he did not dare to rob King Beihu of his supplies, so he had to escort Qiao Xing and Wu Guang back to the royal court of Beihu and hand them over to Moji, the Dahe clan.

Dahe's Moji was about the same age as Marquis Liyang. He had been to Liguo in his early years and not only knew the Liguo dialect, he even knew the characters of Liguo.

Chu Tianjiao's letter was handed into his hands. After reading it, he did not express any joy or anger, nor did he agree to Chu Tianjiao's proposal to establish a mutual market at the border.

He just asked people to take Qiao Xing, Wu Guang and others down and treat them well.

All the remaining goods brought by the caravan were impounded, and the horses were naturally penned into the royal court's horse farm.

Qiao Xing and Wu Guang were entertained with good food and drink every day, but they were not allowed to leave the circle of tents where they were entertained. They could not figure out what King Beihu was thinking, and they were very anxious.

After Tian Huan and his men broke through the encirclement, they returned to Ganzhou day and night.

On the border, they met new soldiers led by Xiao Qi.

At this time, the news that Li Guo's army was at Chen Bing's border had just reached King Beihu's tent.

When he learned that the news was sent from the border five days ago, King Dahe Shimoji of Beihu was finally moved.

He called the big man who arrested Qiao Xing and others and asked: "Five days ago, you didn't arrest the Liguo caravan, right?"

Da Danghu reported: "I am one of those Liguo people arrested three days ago."

Daheshi Moji was shocked and immediately ordered to summon Qiao Xing and Wu Guang to see him.
