The man also looked back at me.Sure enough, he was a Han, with a square face, clear eyebrows, tall and handsome, he must be the best among the Han.Seeing me standing up, he had a confused expression on his face at first, but soon turned to a trace of excitement.He also subconsciously clenched the handle of the knife around his waist, and at the same time pushed back with his left arm, covering the beautiful woman behind him.It seems that he knows how to pity and cherish jade. No woman can resist such a beautiful man who knows how to please women.No wonder this beautiful woman from Kang Juguo has a deep affection for him.

"Who are you?" he shouted, the knife half unsheathed. He speaks Chinese, and I can understand some Chinese. This sentence is very simple, and there is no difficulty in understanding it. I looked far and wide, but I couldn't see that there were followers behind them, and I was very courageous.I smiled: "The one who draws the blade will die. You are dead." "Whoever draws the ruler dies" is the decree of our Huns. I quote it here just to play him. There was a trace of surprise on his face, but then he didn't care: "Are you a Hun? The Hun's decrees are not suitable for our Han envoys."

It seems that he knows a lot about the Huns. The beauty exclaimed: "Huns!" The horror on her face made me feel comforted. It seems that Kangju people are still very afraid of us Huns. My courage grew stronger, and I said to the man: "Is your name Chen Tang? What are you doing here? This is the land of our Huns. How can you come in without our Huns' permission? Seeing that the emperor of the Han Dynasty was very interested." , I can forgive you for giving me a sum of money recently, but I have to keep this beautiful woman who was kidnapped by you. " Chen Tang twitched his mouth and said with a smile: "Your Hu Hanxie Shanyu kowtowed a few years ago to express his surrender to our big man. Who are you, and you dare to be so rude in front of the big man's envoy?"

"Messenger," I laughed loudly, "Kangju has always been a subject of our Huns. What does it have to do with your Han Dynasty? Hey, that beauty, you are from Kangju. Is this yellow-faced Qin person trying to kidnap you?" You? With us here, you don’t have to be afraid.” Seeing me talking to her, the Kangju beauty turned her head to look at Chen Tang with a bewildered look on her face.Chen Tang also seemed to have changed his face, smiling and explaining something softly to her. He was speaking Kangju dialect, which I couldn't understand, so I turned around and asked my followers to translate for me.

The entourage said: "Obey, Shan Yu. He said, the Huns said that I kidnapped you, a beautiful woman, it's really funny." The Kangju beauty immediately shook her head desperately at me, and said something hastily in her mouth.It looked very pitiful like that, but it added an indescribable beauty, I really wanted to go up to her and hug her in my arms. The entourage hurriedly explained: "She said they were lovers, she was not cheated, thank you for your kindness." At this time, Chen Tang showed a very surprised look on his face, and asked in Xiongnu dialect: "Are you Zhizhi Shanyu?" It seems that this Zhuzi often hangs around in the Western Regions, at least he is proficient in Xiongnu and Kangju dialect.

"How do you know?" I blurted out, but immediately realized that it was the respectful address my entourage gave me just now that exposed my identity. But that's okay. "Yes. Now that you know, don't give up the beauty to Ben Shanyu." I laughed. "That's unless you can kill me. I have the Han soldiers and horses I brought nearby, and there are also many Kangju cavalry. The Emperor Han ordered me to go to Kangju. King Kangju knew that the Huns were in decline. The single Yudu has already served me as a big man. You can't boss me around here." He said casually.

There are their soldiers and horses nearby. I was a little hesitant immediately, if what he said was true, then it seemed that I couldn't take this beauty away.But I, a dignified Shanyu, was rejected by an envoy from the Han Dynasty. This humiliation is unbearable.I have to find a way for myself: "Chen Tang, since you are the envoy of the Han Dynasty, and you hooked up this beauty first, I won't grab it by force. How about we have a one-on-one match, if you If I win, I will give up on this beauty. Otherwise, I can only grab it hard. You have soldiers stationed nearby, and there are also a large number of my cavalry stationed on the other side of the blue lake. I am afraid you are not my opponent. Besides, I am one of your Han Dynasty Shan Yu of Youguo, you are a courtier of the Han Dynasty, and compared to me, you are an accompanying minister, do you have the nerve to rob me of a woman? If your emperor knew, I am afraid he would not support you."

Chen Tangmin pursed his lips, as if he was a little annoyed: "A woman who is willing to lose her face and robs a courtier of the suzerain state she serves is not very honorable... Well, Shan Yu, what do you compare, I will accompany you one by one." "We compete on horseback and archery." I said. "What kind of comparison?" he said. "It's very simple." I said, "We ride horses and shoot each other, each shoots three arrows, and lives and dies in peace." I have always been extremely confident in my archery skills. Back then, I was able to survive in Juyanze Forest because of my extraordinary archery skills. After surviving, he returned to the Xiongnu and was named King Zuoguli. He fought many times, often took the lead, and shot and killed the enemy generals with a strong bow in his hand. Defeat King Youxian and become the current Zhizhi Shanyu.It can be said that my current status is all earned by my real skills.

"Okay." He didn't seem to hesitate at all. The Kangju beauty looked uneasy, holding his sleeve and muttering something. The entourage persuaded: "Shanyu, with a body of ten thousand gold, how can you compete with this little rascal in your shooting skills, just in case..." I interrupted him: "Could it be that I can't compare to him?" "No." He said in a low voice, "I know that Shan Yu's shooting skills are excellent, but as Shan Yu, he doesn't need to fight this Qin scoundrel himself." Several of my other guards also persuaded me, but I couldn't listen at all.Besides my confidence in my shooting skills, I actually want to show off in front of beauties.I know that women in all countries in the Western Regions admire men who are strong, brave and good at shooting. This is an excellent opportunity for me to express myself.

I said: "Don't talk too much, what are they discussing, you can just translate it for me." "The woman was persuading him not to take any risks, but the little rogue was not afraid. Don't worry about what I say, I will definitely defeat Shan Yu," he said. I sneered a few times: "Look at me shooting an arrow through the neck of this ignorant little rascal." Thinking of winning the beauty right away, I felt itchy in my heart. "Are you ready?" I sat on the horse, holding my bow and arrow in my hand, and shouted to the other party. Chen Tang said hesitantly: "There is nothing to prepare, but I forgot to bring my bow."

I despised people more and more. A person who is really good at archery can never leave his bow. Obviously he is not a person who is used to archery.Moreover, the Han people are weak and have never been able to draw strong bows, so they manufactured a large number of strong crossbows. The shooting skills of bows and arrows alone have always been far inferior to our Huns.At this point, I will not lose confidence when I fall asleep. "Lend him your bow," I said to a guard beside me. He had a troubled look on his face. I said, "Hurry up." Reluctantly, he took the bow off his back and handed it to Chen Tang. Chen Tang said: "I also borrowed your quiver." The guard looked back at me.I said, "Give it to him."
