Liang Xiao watched coldly, saying no.([?

The Great Xia Armor Cavalry is his last killer move, and his last hope to turn defeat into victory. Judging from the current situation, these Armor Cavalry obviously cannot bear such a heavy responsibility. If you can't even enforce orders, who dares to hand over the task of killing them for a lifetime?

As long as one person is shaken, the entire storm-former formation may become a piece of loose sand. If you want to play the due role, you must be like repeatedly hammering iron blocks to purify them. Those unstable factors must be removed one by one in order to create a real magic weapon.

To achieve this goal, the punishment for twenty military sticks is not enough. If you don’t bleed, it will be difficult to achieve a magic weapon.

However, Liang Xiao did not say that this was Doros' subordinate, not his subordinate, so he could not propose to kill people and establish his authority. Otherwise, not only would the Arctic Cavalry have opinions about him, Doros would also have other ideas.

Seeing that Doros had finished his sentence, he was still angry. Liang Xiao pulled him aside and reported the battle situation over the past two days. Hearing that Lie Jiaomi even killed his own people in order to inspire morale, Doros was very surprised.

"So cruel?"

"Ci doesn't control the soldiers." Liang Xiao smiled. "Are you still gamble?"

Doros scratched his head. "I'll practice for two more days to see what's going on."

"Well, then you hurry up." Liang Xiao sighed: "There is no way out for this war. If you are not sure, I can only grit my teeth and hold on. Lie Jiaomi may continue to attack hard or give up. No matter how he chooses, it is not what I hope."

Doros was puzzled. "What's wrong?"

"I'm worried that the Huns will attack Dayuan, and I'm worried that the Parthians and even the Yuezhi people may go back on their word. Without the armored cavalry to help, your father will be under a lot of pressure."

Doros said nothing and nodded. Liang Xiao's three worries were related to Daxia and to their father and son, which made him feel heavy on his shoulders.

"I'm leaving. If you have anything to do, come and find me directly."

"Okay." Doros nodded vigorously.

Liang Xiao returned to the entrance of the gorge, but unexpectedly it was revealed that Li Jiaomi did not attack. The gorge was calm, and the soldiers who were preparing to fight in the formation were puzzled. Ashana, who was commanding, was also very uneasy. Seeing Liang Xiao coming back, he quickly told the situation.

"General, what do you think Lie Jiaomi is doing?"

Liang Xiao thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure out what tricks Lie Jiaomi would have. "No matter what he is doing, the soldiers come to block the generals, and the water comes to cover the soil. Since he doesn't attack, we will use this time to rest and prepare some methods."

Azhan was very curious. "What other means do the general have?"

Liang Xiao pointed to the mountain behind him. "Aren't these all means?"

Asha raised his head and still didn't understand it very much. Liang Xiao smiled. Although the Yuezhi people had a city, their awareness of offense and defense was still very weak. This is no wonder that there were no strong opponents around the Yuezhi. They could gain the advantage by just field battles of cavalry. Naturally, they didn't need to consider offense and defense in the city, and they couldn't realize the factors that could be used.

But in the eyes of the Han people, there are too many things that can be used in this valley.

The hillside is divided into several different terrains from top to bottom. The uppermost part is a cold zone covered with snow and ice. Apart from ice and snow, there is no vegetation, and there is not much to use. Below is an alpine meadow composed of bushes and dwarf wormwood, and downward is a primeval forest. The lowermost part is a valley full of miscellaneous trees, many of which are wild fruit trees, which bear many wild fruits such as apples, apricots, walnuts, etc.

For Liang Xiao, those miscellaneous trees are ready-made materials for bunkers, and they can be used after being cut down and thrown into the valley. In addition to being bunkers, those tall and straight fir and spruce trees can also be used as giant spears to supplement the shortcomings of weapons.

After several days of fighting, the consumption of weapons was amazing. The most obvious ones were arrows and spears. Arrows could also pick up arrows shot from the Wusun people to supplement, but the spears were a problem. Although the Wusun people were also equipped with stirrups, they were still not used to using spears to fight in close combat, and Liang Xiao could not get the spears to supplement.

For positional offense and defense, spears are more useful than battle knives, especially for Yuezhi people with less flexible footwork. Spears can keep them away from their opponents, have a wider attack range, and their own safety can be effectively guaranteed.

As for those wild fruits, they are naturally rare snacks and can also serve as part of the food. If you can hunt a few wild animals, you can also eat wild game, saving a few cattle and sheep.

The thousand captives who surrendered before were idle and were both idle and embarrassed, except for helping to shed sheep, Liang Xiao sent them up the mountain to cut trees. He cut off some of the branches and leaves of the cut trees, leaving only the top, which looked like the red tassel of a spear. They looked tender, but if they were stabbed on their faces, it would be enough to be affected.

The cut branches and leaves are not wasted. In order to preserve moisture, these cold-resistant trees mostly contain wax or fat on their leaves, which are easy to burn. They are not only ready-made materials for cooking, but also a necessary killer for setting fire to the enemy.

Liang Xiao not only used his brains, but also used all the soldiers to give advice and use the materials in front of him. Most of his divisions have been exposed to city offensive and defensive training. Even if he is not as smart as Deng Guobin, it is still okay to make a few offensive and defensive equipment. As for the Dayuan people and the Yuezhi people, they have no idea, but they have the strength. Everyone works together and is busy.

In two days, Liang Xiao built more than fifty shooting platforms, distributed behind the stone formation, and prepared nearly a thousand giant spears. Liang Xiao inserted three hundred of them into the formation, pointing to the outside of the valley, waiting for the Wusun people to attack, and the rest were placed on the hillsides on both sides for later use.

In addition, Liang Xiao also built more than a dozen stone throwers. These stone throwers were very simple and did not even peel off the bark. It was a bit dangerous to throw stones, but there was no problem throwing lit branches.

Everything was ready to stop, Liang Xiao was relieved and just waited for the hunting Jiaomi to attack.

Liejiaomi has never come.

Lie Jiaomi was originally planning to wait for the forced expedition to attack the ground again as soon as the corpse arrived, and filled Liang Xiao's position with the corpse. However, three thousand cavalry sent out for a few days, but failed to bring back the corpse. Instead, news of the attack came.

The Sairen didn't know how Liejiaomi treated their warriors as cannon fodder. When they saw the Wusun people coming, they either turned around and ran away or fought desperately, and would rather die in battle than tie them up. The Wusun people were unprepared at first, injured many people, and they were immediately furious and chased them relentlessly, chasing them for two or three hundred miles at once.

Then, they found a problem: there were not many shepherds within more than two hundred miles, and the shepherds who were supposed to spend the winter in the winter field were gone.

The Wusun people realized that the situation was not right and immediately returned the news to Liejiaomi.

Lie Jiaomi was also shocked. How could the scatter know about the matter on the battlefield? Is his subordinates not speaking up, or the scattered people escaped? The scattered people in the camp have been killed. If anyone escaped, it is likely that the scattered people who surrendered to Liang Xiao.

Will Liang Xiao escape too?

Lie Jiaomi thought a lot for a moment. When he thought that Liang Xiao might be no longer in the canyon, he felt that Liang Liang was cold and immediately thought of Liang Xiao's rushing to Hexi for thousands of miles.

Will he go to Chigu City? Although the mountain road is difficult to walk and it is almost snowing in the mountains, Liang Xiao has the ability to march in the snow, so he took over the Cheshi.

The more Lie Jiaomi thought about it, the more uneasy he became. Although he had fought against Liang Xiao for several days, he could not see Liang Xiao. In fact, he didn't know Liang Xiao, he could only see Liang Xiao's battle flag. Who knows if the person under Zhan Qi was Liang Xiao himself.

Liejiaomi was confused for a while and had no intention of attacking. He sent a large number of scouts to inquire about the news and sent envoys to Chigu City to remind Aruikan and other generals to be careful not to be attacked by Liang Xiao.

Liang Xiao didn't know what Lie Jiaomi was doing, and he was a little nervous, but he knew how to overcome this tension. The military strategy was full of things, so he would be invincible first and wait for the enemy to be able to win. Since he couldn't figure out what Lie Jiaomi was thinking, he would spend more time, tighten the fence, polish the steel knife, and wait for the wolf to come and fall into the trap.

Liang Xiao summoned the generals to discuss matters, explained the situation in front of him, and arranged tasks.

Needless to say, Doros only has one task, training the armored cavalry, when to train the flag and go through fire and water, and when to calculate it. In front of Ashana and Jianmi, Liang Xiao said to Doros, if you want to make achievements with the armored cavalry and conquer the world, you must pass this level. If even the Wusun people who were severely injured by us cannot defeat, after returning to Daxia, you should remove your armor and return to the field and avoid your position and give way to the wise.

Doros was blushed when he said it, and patted his chest to promise that he would give him another half month to be able to obey orders, otherwise he would come to see him.

Liang Xiao handed over the task of guarding the gorge to Ashana. So far, the Yuezhi people have lost more than 1,000 cavalry, nearly 30% of the total force. Ashana is very painful, but he also saw the improvement of his subordinates in infantry warfare. Without the Wusun people launching a large-scale attack, the Yuezhi people can fully undertake normal alert tasks, and can also use this time to strengthen training and summarize the lessons learned from their blood before digesting.

As for Jian Mi, Liang Xiao asked him to patrol the surrounding terrain and build a fortress where the enemy might break through. Jian Mi guarded the mountain pass for many years and had some experience in defense. With Liang Xiao assisting from the side, building a defense line from scratch is also a rare opportunity for him.

The three generals, from three countries, have different personalities, but were arranged properly by Liang Xiao. Everyone was very satisfied and happily accepted the task.

After agreeing to contact Ashana, Liang Xiao and Jianmi retreated to the depths of the valley. Soon, based on the topographic map drawn by Ma Rong, under the guidance of Liang Xiao, Jianmi began to build a defensive formation for the entire canyon.

After a period of time, the people of Sai have accepted Liang Xiao's leadership. They have also participated and worked very hard. Every day, they go up the mountain to log wood during the day, and at night they gather with the Han people and Dayuan people, bragging and singing, and some even learn Chinese dialect from the young men of Sai.

If there were no Wusun people outside the canyon, this life was like a god, and Liang Xiao was even reluctant to leave.

Aruikan hurriedly walked into the stone chamber. Dongfang Shuo, who was reading the Buddhist scriptures, was stunned. He put down the Buddhist scriptures and stood up. "What's wrong?"

Aruikan's face was a little pale and his chest was fluctuating. After thinking about it, she still conveyed the news she received to Dongfang Shuo, but she didn't say it all, just that Liejiaomi was confronting Liang Xiao, and the war was stalemate. Liejiaomi asked her to strengthen the defense of Chigu City.

Dongfang Shuo frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "Liang Xiao is not in the canyon, right?"

Aruikan stared at Dongfang Shuo and didn't say anything, wondering if he should tell him these things. If he knew that Liang Xiao might be rushing to Chigu City, what would he do?

"Okay, don't look at me like this." Dongfang Shuo snorted: "It is easy to defend the difficult situation in Chigu City, and it is also a new heavy snowfall in the mountains. It is impossible for ordinary people to choose to march in the mountains at this time. Who else can make Lie Jiaomi worry besides Liang Xiao?"

"Then... Will Liang Xiao really come to Akagu City?"

"No." Dongfang Shuo shook his head without thinking. "But, this is a good opportunity for you."

“What good opportunity?”

"The opportunity to take military power in your hands. I think Lie Jiaomi's order is probably not for you alone. There must be other noble officials and generals who are in charge of the troops with you. However, there are only 10,000 or 20,000 people left in Akagu City. If you order many people to restrain each other, it may be unfavorable to command."

Aruikan's eyebrows moved slightly, but he didn't say anything.

"Liang Xiao won't come, but you can take this opportunity to master the strength. When Lie Jiaomi dies, you won't have to spend so much effort."

"Will Kunmo die?"

"He was unable to kill Liang Xiao, so he would naturally be killed by Liang Xiao." Dongfang Shuo smiled confidently. "The only person who can make Lie Jiaomi so nervous, and the only person who can make Liang Xiao uneasy is Lie Jiaomi. One of them must die, so that the Western Regions can be peaceful. Of course, if Lie Jiaomi dies, what the Western Regions gets is long-term peace. When Liang Xiao dies, what the Western Regions gets is only temporary peace."

"Why do you say that?"

"Although Liang Xiao is outstanding, there are still a few people who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him. If Liang Xiao dies and the emperor is furious, he will send more people to the Western Regions. In short, if the Western Regions are not pacified, the emperor will not give up."

Aruikan was skeptical. "Are you guys who are as capable as Liang Xiao?"

"Haha, the woman's opinion." Dongfang Shuo shook his head. "Do you know how many people we are in the great man? 30 million. Hundreds of thousands of people in the Hunxie tribe can produce a Tianlang, and 300,000 Wusun can produce a Jiaomi. What's so strange about my great man's 30 million people in the few Liang Xiao?"

Aruikan's eyes were involuntarily jumping around. Thirty million people, the size of a hundred Wusuns, was unimaginable.

"Have you heard of Wei Qing?"

"I have heard of it. I seem to have a good relationship with Liang Xiao."

"Well, although Wei Qing is a slave, he is talented and is just cautious, not as arrogant as Liang Xiao. Liang Xiao went on a few battles and had Wei Qing accompanied him. However, what I want to say is not Wei Qing, but Wei Qing's nephew Huo Qubing."

"Huo Qubing?" Aruikan thought for a while. "Is it Liang Xiao's junior brother?"

"That's right, Huo Qubing is Liang Xiao's junior brother, and he is only in his early 10 years old this year. However, he has outstanding talent, and even Liang Xiao sighs as bad as he does. If Liang Xiao is defeated by Lie Jiaomi this time, the news will reach Chang'an, I guess Wei Qing may be the commander of the army next time he goes to the battle, and Huo Qubing will accompany him."

Dongfang Shuo shook his head and smiled, "Maybe, like Liang Xiao, he is going to become famous in the Western Regions."

Ari was terrified and his face was ashes-
