The Army
Her palm was white with a tinge of red, like a small white jade bowl filled with horse milk. The deer took a few bites and bleated. "It's calling mom!" the girl said.”
Ye Weiyang smiled. He felt very comfortable being with the girl.
The two of them traveled for another six days. On the seventh day, at dawn, they suddenly saw a cloud rising into the sky in the distance.
"Are you afraid of the wind?" Ye Weiyang asked.”
The girl looked carefully and said,"This is not a dark cloud, but the dust of the ground."”
"Why are there so many?" Ye Weiyang asked.”
"I don't know either," the girl replied. Let's go over and take a look!"
The two of them galloped on their horses. After running for a while, the dust in front of them rose even higher, and the faint sound of a golden drum could be heard.
Ye Weiyang was startled and hurriedly reined in her horse, saying," It's the army. Listen to this sound."
At this moment, the bugle sounded loudly and the war drums thundered.
Endless Night frowned." The two armies are at war. Let's quickly avoid them."”
The two of them reined in their horses and headed east. Not long after, a cloud of dust rose up in front of them as a group of military horses rushed over. With the clanging of iron armor, a large flag flew out from the dust, with the word "Zhao" written on it.
Endless Night didn't want to meet the army, so he gestured to the girl and turned south again. Fortunately, Cheng Qi was fast. After a while, they were far away from the Iron-armored Army.
"I wonder if our team can resist them." The young girl looked worried.”
Ye Weiyang was just about to comfort him when he heard the sound of horns in front of him. Rows of infantrymen lined up and marched forward. He also heard the drums on the left beating rapidly. The earth shook as tens of thousands of horses 'hooves pounded on the ground. Cavalrymen from all over the mountains and plains surged over.
Ye Weiyang raised his left hand and carried the girl onto his horse, letting her sit in front of him. He then wrapped his arm around her slender waist and said gently: "Don't be afraid."
The girl turned around and smiled. She nodded and said,""If you say you're not afraid, then I'm not afraid." When she spoke, her breath was like orchids. Ye Weiyang was close to her, and her fragrance was even more intoxicating.
Seeing that there were enemy soldiers on the north, south and east sides, he galloped west. The girl carried the deer, and the red horse followed behind. After running for a while, he suddenly saw Qing soldiers in front of him. The troops were coming and going, and they were setting up formations. There was no way out in all directions.
Ye Weiyang galloped up a high slope and saw that the west side was lined up with dense layers of Manchu infantry, while the flanks were lined up with cavalry. In the distance, there were Hui warriors wearing striped clothes. Their spears were like a forest, and their scimitars were like grass. Their momentum was also extremely powerful. Both sides stabilized their positions and were about to clash in the blink of an eye.
It turned out that Ye Weiyang and the girl were already trapped in the army.
He saw the generals galloping back and forth in the formation, and the thousands of soldiers were silent. At this time, the Qing army had already discovered two people, and several soldiers were ordered to come and inquire.
Ye Weiyang smiled, one hand around the girl's slender waist, the other holding the reins, shouting loudly: "Sit tight!"
He pressed his legs together, and the white horse under him immediately charged forward like an arrow.
The Qing soldier was about to ask when he felt a violent force hit him. His chest seemed to have been hit hard and he spat out blood on the spot.
Ye Weiyang rode on the white horse, and his body seemed to be wrapped in a layer of air wall. When the Qing soldiers who rushed up to him came within three meters of the white horse, they would be violently hit.
Wave after wave of Qing soldiers had their bones and tendons broken, lying on the ground and wailing. They had actually failed to stop Endless Night's cavalry.
The white horse galloped forward and caught everyone's attention. That brave and invincible figure really made people stunned on the spot.
Endless Night and the girl successfully broke out of the encirclement of the Qing soldiers. The little red pony followed closely behind and was unharmed.
Before the battle even began, his subordinates were already injured. The commander shouted,"Retreat!" After the order was given, the tens of thousands of infantry and cavalry retreated dozens of miles and set up camp beside the Black River.
After escaping danger, the girl handed the deer in her arms to Endless Night, then jumped onto the back of the red horse, smiling: "Our team is in front."
Endless Night nodded, and the two of them galloped towards the returning team.
A small group of returning cavalrymen came up to them and cheered loudly. They galloped to the front and jumped off their horses to pay their respects to the girl. The girl said a few words. The captain of the cavalry also came forward to salute Endless Night, raising his thumb and saying: "Brother, you are so brave. Thank you for your hard work. May God bless you.”
Endless Night returned the gesture of thanks. The girl raised her hand to bid farewell to him and rode her horse straight to the group. She seemed to be quite powerful among the people. The red horse was everywhere, and everyone cheered to make way.
The cavalry captain invited Ye Weiyang to the barracks to rest and eat.
During dinner, Ye Weiyang asked the captain,"Who was the woman who came with me just now? You seem to respect her.”
"Who else could be so beautiful besides her?" the captain laughed. Tonight, we will have a ceremony. Brother, you should come too. You might even meet the girl you like.”
Ye Weiyang smiled. He felt that it was better not to ask what the " Huilang Festival " was. After all, he was now dressed as a member of the Hui clan. If he didn't even know about the Hui clan's festival, he would probably be exposed.
After running in the desert for a month, Ye Weiyang didn't have time to take a good bath. Now that he had the chance, Ye Weiyang accompanied the soldiers to the stream to take a bath. Listening to the Hui men singing folk songs, he also hummed along.
In the evening, the young soldiers were busy, each of them glowing with radiance, their clothes were bright and they had deliberately dressed up.
The twilight in the desert gradually deepened, and a crescent moon rose from the horizon. Suddenly, they heard the sound of drums outside the camp. The cavalry captain walked into the tent and pulled Ye Weiyang's hand, saying: "The new moon is out, brother, let's go.”
The two of them arrived outside the camp and saw a large fire burning on the ground. The young man Zhan Tu was walking over from all directions and surrounding the fire. Some people were roasting cattle and sheep, making pilaf, and some were playing music. It was a joyous scene.
A horn sounded and a group of people walked out from the middle tent. The person in the lead was a white-haired old man, the clan leader.
The clan leader waved his hand at the crowd, and they immediately knelt down and prayed to God.
Endless Night also bowed down with the crowd. After praying, the Hui clan leader shouted,""Brothers who already have wives, you will have to work hard today. Guard outside and let your young brothers be happy for a night.”
The bugle sounded, and three groups of warriors lined up. Each of them held a horse in their left hand and a long saber in their right hand.
A warrior sitting on a warhorse shouted,""May the true gods bless you and let you have a happy reunion with your beloved girl tonight.”
The young warriors cheered and shouted,"God bless you. Thank you for your hard work in resisting the enemy."”
That warrior slashed his long blade in the air and led three teams to go out to guard.
