Chapter 709: Silent Night, Sudden Situation
Great Qin Great Wall.
At this time, the night was already deep.
Han Xin could not sleep and ran onto the Great Wall to blow in the wind.
The remaining soldiers were on duty and alert on the Great Wall.
The weak bonfire flames were dancing with the wind.
This late night was precisely the time to be sleepy.
Han Xin took out some small wine and started drinking.
Shanu also came over to ask for some small wine.
Originally, Han Xin wanted to drink a little by himself.
After all, Shanu was still young and not suitable for drinking.
But he could not resist him wanting to drink a little.
Having no choice, he gave Shanu a little.
The two were talking intermittently.
Just at this moment.
The two stopped their movements at the same time.
The night was deep, and the surroundings were very quiet.
This was a silent night.
Therefore, they heard the faint sound of horses.
This also made them vigilant.
They stood up one after another and looked at the vast grassland outside.
But it was pitch black outside, and nothing could be seen.
Even if there was a trace of starlight in the sky, one could not see too far.
"Big Brother Han..."
"Shh~~"
Shanu had just opened his mouth; when there was no trouble, he would call him Big Brother Han.
But he was interrupted by Han Xin just as he opened his mouth.
Not to mention Shanu being confused.
Even he himself was confused and puzzled.
They had not heard wrong; there was indeed the sound of a horse running over.
However, listening to this sound, it seemed that there was only one horse running.
If a large number of horses were running, it would not be this sound.
This also made the two confused.
What was this situation?
Could it be Great Qin soldiers who had gotten lost?
Otherwise, how could they be galloping wildly in the middle of the night?
If one said it was the Xiongnu, it was also unlikely.
After all, in the middle of the night, for a Xiongnu to come here, wasn't that seeking death.
"Don't speak, be alert first."
"Go notify the others not to talk."
"Pay attention to concealment."
Han Xin whispered softly.
Shanu nodded, hunched over, and walked out.
At this time, there were not many people on the Great Wall, only a few dozen people.
The remaining people were all under the Great Wall.
Soon, the people on the Great Wall all heard the sound of horse hooves coming from far to near.
In an instant, the people on the Great Wall all woke up at this moment.
All sleepiness was gone.
They all secretly pointed their crossbows at the pitch-black outside.
Before long, the sound of horse hooves got closer and closer.
Borrowing the faint starlight, everyone saw a white shadow rushing towards this side.
Staring closely, they saw it was a white horse.
The person on the horse was also holding white cloth, looking even whiter.
It was just like a bright lamp in the night sky.
This was also too obvious.
If it were all black, no one would notice the shadow.
But this all-white, it was too obvious.
"Pass the order down, do not attack for now, the other party might only be one person."
"Explore the situation clearly first before talking."
"Understood."
Shanu quickly conveyed Han Xin's order and went.
Han Xin was also confused.
He could not understand why there would be a person riding a horse rushing towards the Great Wall in the middle of the night.
But now it was the middle of the night, and the surroundings were very dark; he could not see clearly whether it was friend or foe.
When that person rode the horse to the foot of the Great Wall, he stopped by himself. ===== CHAPTER 711 =====
