The world is for the public GL

To the west of the frontier of the ancestors, the terrain was steep and high, and the sentries were all set up on the edge of the cliff, with five men per post.

When Zhou Zai came from Xianzhou, he arranged to set up guards along the way, one guard every five miles.

Zisang was riding on a horse, followed by the left lieutenant, with heavy snow beside him.

Along the way, she accompanied the driver to feed the wolf as a general's attendant, so everyone felt that it was understandable that the wolf was familiar with her.

In front of her is the left lieutenant general, and three or four cavalrymen, and behind her are the light armored soldiers responsible for escorting the food supplies of the sentry post.

Li Juli is in charge of pulling the horses that are heavily loaded with food. Only when they stop to rest, Li Juli has a chance to talk to Zisang: "I have been here to transport supplies for several days. I didn't expect you to come here to patrol. Riding a horse is quite majestic."

"I've been patrolling for five days, and this is the first time I've met you."

Turning over from the horse, Zisang rubbed his stiff fingers.

She guessed that although Juli has been helping to deliver supplies on the post line, he actually sometimes goes east.

Moreover, supplies are only distributed once every two days. Zisang is only responsible for patrolling the line once during the day.

Looking at the bottom of the rocky cliff, the ancestor Zhong Zisang, who was dark in the distance, looked worried. General Zhou Zai had been out of the customs for five days.

According to the plan in advance, just in case, every day, patrol soldiers will hand over new discoveries and marching progress to the cemetery outside the customs where the remains of [-] soldiers are buried, and mark them with red silk.

On the first day, he said that nothing happened and he had already entered the forest. On the second day, he said that there was nothing wrong, and that no soldiers stationed in Dongchi were found.

Since the day before yesterday, there has been no new news.

Kuang Xun was very anxious, and so were the subordinates who were ordered to train soldiers in the army.

The general said that if he didn't get the letter within ten days, something must have happened to him.

Half of the agreed days have passed.

General Zuo also looked at the dark forest in the distance and clenched his iron fist: "Dong Chi is too stubborn this time, what kind of idea is he playing, he dare not show anyone."

Although it would be frightening to know that Dong Chi may send troops several times as many as them this time, and the disparity in strength, but what is really frightening is the invisible enemy.

Dongchi didn't even write the battle letter, but everyone in the world knew that Chi Yu was determined to do this battle.

And the speculation about the enemy's movements in the past few days made them realize that Chi Yu narrowly won the first battle ten years ago, and Chi Yu ten years later is a hundred times more dangerous than Chi Zheng with 20 soldiers back then.

Zisang led the horse and walked alongside General Zuo, and beside his ears was the sound of the wind blowing from Guiyuan through the sky above the ancestors' graves to the cliff like a prisoner crying.

"I remember an ancient book saying that ordinary people dare not approach the ancestors' tomb, so why did Dongchi dare to hide in it to train soldiers in large numbers?"

"Hmph, the military is a dangerous place. In normal times, there are many beasts, poisonous insects, and mud pits in the forest of the ancestors' graves. The weather is unpredictable and the atmosphere is extremely heavy. Ordinary people dare not approach it."

After Deputy General Zuo said this, Zi Sang understood a little bit, no wonder Dongchi would stockpile troops here in winter.

To the north of the ancestor's tomb is the ice and snow Guiyuan, which is said to be an extremely cold place. The terrain of the ancestor's tomb valley is in a low-lying area, so it forms a round sky, divided into spring, summer, autumn and winter.

In the other three seasons, the humidity in the forest is very heavy, but there are few people, and the poison of wild animals is very easy to survive. Only in winter, the sky is covered with ice and snow, and the swamp is hardened. Even if there are wild animals, they are not afraid of being restricted by the thick snow, especially in the army. There are too many beasts in front of you to be afraid of.

Dongchi's army chose to hide in the forest at this time, which is equivalent to having a natural barrier.

In normal battles, the two armies fought in the wilderness, but Dongchi Monarch went in the opposite direction, Nanliang was very passive this time.

Li Juli hadn't read any ancient books, but he often heard people tell the legend about this ancestor's tomb when he passed by on the road.

Hearing what they said about this, he also interjected to show off what he had heard and learned since he joined the army, and he opened his mouth and said: "It is said that the ancestors of the people in this world all come from the ancestors' graves, so isn't it right now where the ancestors live?" Do your own people beat your own people on the territory?".

Deputy General Zuo couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "Then, we are still relatives with that shit Chi Yu, Lord Dongchi."

Regarding Li Juli's statement, Zisang also couldn't laugh or cry: "In the early days, the world was chaotic. There were as many as a dozen families from different countries, big and small, and there were often wars when the power system was chaotic. At that time, several noble families were expelled. It turned out that they were all young people with aspirations, who buried their crowns and brought them here, and the blood-cutting covenant helped them regain their lost land, so that it became a momentum. in it."

"It turns out that the world is not born from one family." Li Juli suddenly realized.

"Where is the crown buried?"

Zi Sang glanced at him, and said calmly: "It is said that it was also the time of cold winter, and the king of Xiling Kingdom found a sleeping giant python from a stone and slashed its belly, and put the crown on the snake's belly, which means sawing the world."

So the auspicious beast of Xiling Kingdom is a snake.

Even Li Juli, who was born as an Orion, shuddered when he heard his belly cut: "I heard that the people of Xiling Kingdom are warlike and not good at writing, they look like bears."

The terrain of Xiling State is relatively high, and it is connected to Tieyaguan in Lingfengzhou with Nanliang.

Due to the abundant domestic supply and demand in Nanliang, and the fact that Xiling has been invading the Fengyan and Nanliang prefectures all year round, the situation between the two sides is tense, so there are few business contacts, and the mutual understanding among the people is limited to rumors.

Rumors say that there are many women in Xiling, horse herders. The most novel thing is that the women in Xiling have colorful eyes and yellow and red hair, just like the monsters in the paintings.

In the previous dynasty, Zisang often heard discussions about the war in Fengzhou. Although Xiling Kingdom claimed to be a country, it was not like Dongchi or Nanliang where one person was the king, and the whole country bowed their heads and listened to orders.

The internal power in Xiling is relatively good, and it invades the two prefectures of Fengyan from time to time, and it doesn't seem like a large army is gathering to fight.

This is exactly the headache. An army of tens of thousands of people forms a large front, only guarding against bandits of tens of thousands of people. Sometimes they don't come once in half a year, and sometimes they suddenly attack one of them. Most of the troops were consumed.

Originally, the city walls were built while the troops were stationed, but since the heir to the throne in Nanliang died six years ago, there have been various open and secret fights in the court.

The matter of building a city is a matter of time-consuming, labor-intensive, labor-intensive, and money-consuming. There are too many disputes, and now Dongchi is committing crimes again, and the shortcomings of the past are all slowly showing signs.

Zisang and the left lieutenant turned over and got the horse together, thinking of this incident: "There are more than 20 soldiers in the two places of Fengyan, so they can't move a single point?"

"Seeing that Dongchi is threatening us here, the people of Xiling will naturally not miss this opportunity."

The left deputy general was a little frustrated, drank and drank before leaving.

"Fengzhou has Tieya Pass, which is also a natural danger, but the ghosts of Xiling carved a road from the Wuzhi Mountains in Yanzhou. Going south, you can enter Yanzhou, and going north is Fengzhou. They are all vast and thousands of miles away. If you are in danger, you must defend, and if you retreat, you will abandon these two states."

What the king meant was not to lose an inch of land, so he insisted on using 20 troops to guard the two states of Fengyan, which were useless.

"But the total strength of Nanliang should be more than that."

"There are as many as 60 Chen soldiers in each family in the light and dark of Baibi City, and the garrisons in various cities, the total strength of Nanliang can reach 40." The left deputy general is also a man of more than [-], and he smiled coldly.

Seeing that the king is about to fall and the new king is growing, the two forces are growing, and the state capitals have garrisons and are unwilling to separate them.

One is to have troops at hand, in case the two families fight, they have the strength to help.

The second is that no matter how chaotic the world is, it's okay to raise the flag while the chaos is in motion.

It was the time when the crops were plentiful, and the country that was supposed to be a prosperous and powerful country was on the verge of falling because of these people fighting for power and profit.

Hateful, exasperating, sad.

When the patrol arrived at the end of the post, it was already dark, and the five people took turns at the post, two of them were standing on the edge of the cliff, and the three were sitting cross-legged in the shelter behind.

Seeing an inspector approaching, all three of them stood up to meet them, and Zisang took out the last two bags of wine from Juli's horse and threw them forward.

"Thank you General."

Zisang was taken aback, "I'm not a general."

The left lieutenant laughed: "These little soldiers don't recognize anyone, and when they see someone riding a horse and wearing heavy armor, they call them generals."

There are many people in the army, and they don't stick to etiquette. Except for their own soldiers, the generals don't know each other.

Xiaobing refused to accept: "I know General Zhou, the one with the beard, his face is cold, he will stand here for a long time every time, sometimes he will lie down here and look down with his head hooked, I am really worried that he will fall .”

Zi Sang looked at the position pointed by Xiaobing. This is the mouth of the wind. The cliff is not steep outwards, but recessed inward. Only when you lie down can you see the cliff.

Zisang also got down to look at it, but the left deputy pulled the armor and said be careful.

The cliff wall is recessed a lot, and the wall surface is very irregular and inclined.

Left deputy general: "Zhou Zai said that if you have the heart, you can easily drive piles and nails, and then put up a ladder, and it is very difficult to guard against."

There is no way to shoot arrows or throw stones down, and the only way to attack is to wait for the enemy to climb up.

After thinking about it, Zisang shuddered and stood up. The forest of the ancestors' tomb could not be seen at the wind outlet, only the whistling and whistling sound of the wind.

On the return trip, Li Juli was finally able to ride a horse, and when he got on the horse, he rode the horse for a while to show Zisang.

"I didn't have the opportunity to ride a horse before. I helped people wash horses every day in the army, so I learned it."

Li Juli is an ordinary light armored soldier, and he is not qualified to be equipped with a war horse.

It is precisely to get this opportunity to ride a horse, so I am not afraid of hard work, and specifically asked for this opportunity to send supplies.

Zisang looked at his jumping back and had to admit that he rode really well.

When I went hunting in the mountains before, Li Juli would carry the prey back to him. He has gained great strength, and his body has grown stronger and stronger. He is actually a good young man for fighting.

After waiting in front for Zisang to catch up, Li Juli swiped the big knife from his body again, looking excited as if he wanted to rush to the front line immediately.

Zisang didn't have much interest in watching this fool's slashing moves, but he turned his head slightly and saw an arrow sticking out beside his scabbard.

"Don't want to be invincible with a long sword, just want to ride a horse and return to safety."

It was the cluster of arrows that she gave to Li Juli casually when she was parting. I didn't expect him to take it with me.

"Is Uncle and Aunt Li all right?"

"Okay, my mother went to Ye Zi's house to ask me about my marriage, and her parents agreed."

"What about the leaves?"

"Hey, what can Ye Zi say, she looks at the trees in the yard every day in a daze."

Everyone in the village said that Ye Zi was crazy because the scholar said too many polite words to her.

But Li Juli didn't care about these, he felt satisfied when he saw the leaves.

The younger men in the village told Li Juli that a woman like Ye Zi is not good because she has someone in her heart.

Li Juli said, when I come back as a soldier, Ye Zi will change people in his heart.

Zisang originally thought about trying to persuade Li Juli, but after thinking about it, it's rare for him to be obsessed with it.

Ye Zi has Ye Zi's obsession, Li Juli also has Li Juli's, it's good to have something to look forward to.

Every time Li Juli talked about Ye Zi, his eyes lit up, thinking about the day when he returned to the village as a hero.

When he returned to the camp, he caught up with a group of elite cavalry riding horses on the school grounds.

Relying on his horse, Li Juli rushed in at once, bent his waist slightly, and drew a big sword used for trial and entered the field.

The reason why Jingqi is called Jingqi is that it has undergone long-term training and most of them have battlefield training and bravery.

Li Juli only thought about slashing at each other. He was strong and rode a horse well, so he wanted to show his pride in front of others when he was young.

Seeing that he was only wearing light armor, the others laughed a little, and were unwilling to fight him: "I haven't even killed a kid yet."

"People have never been killed, but bears and wild boars have been killed a lot." Li Juli said truthfully, like when he met a grizzly bear in the fat hunting den, he would directly attack it with his strength.

Fortunately, there are not many opportunities encountered, and luck is good every time. The not very fierce giant bear makes him proud.

Seeing that he was very angry, Zisang didn't stop him. Anyway, she has been training with the elite cavalry every day recently, and she was often beaten, and the ice piles were almost split by more than a hundred.

The instructor was also passing in front of her, showing a flattering smile.

After all, she was the general's attendant. At first, she saw that she was incompetent, and she was fierce and reasonable. Later, she was really afraid of her lifeless practice day and night, and slowly respected the little girl next to the general from the bottom of her heart. elder brother.

Li Juli was a little embarrassed after pointing at several people with a big knife and disdain to practice against him.

He all pointed at some tall and strong soldiers, and they ignored him when they saw that he was small.

So I had to point the direction to one of the men of similar stature.

The man had a mustache on his cheeks, probably not seeing Li Juli wandering around on the field for a long time, he grabbed the gun and yelled before rushing forward.

With a bang, as Zisang expected, Li Juli fell to the ground, his feet on his back.

The opponent went looking for another opponent without looking back.

Li Juli was wearing light armor, so it was not easy to be shot heavily in the chest, and it took him a long time to recover and get up from the ground.

Zisang knew that this hurt Li Juli could bear it, but Li Juli couldn't bear it.

Before Li Juli got on the horse again, Zisang grabbed him and said, "Okay, it's useless to have strength without eyesight. Let's practice more. Let's practice against each other in the evening."

"with you?"

Li Juli was taken care of by someone, and he felt a little embarrassed: "With your body, your strength is not half as strong as mine."

Growing up together since childhood, Li Juli has always been sticky with rough work at home in the mountains, and Zisang just pulls his bow. No matter how good the head is, in Li Juli's eyes, he is just a woman, and if he is practicing against her, he will not be able to do it. hand.

"Don't underestimate me, the one who knocked you off the horse just now is my defeated general."

Among them, he finally won once two days ago, the last of a dozen games.

"Really?" Li Juli couldn't hold back anymore.

"If you don't believe me, ask Shizhu."

Seeing that Li Juli's face was flushed, Zisang quickly comforted him: "Actually, don't look at his physical weakness, he is very good at shooting with a gun. It's normal that you can't beat him."

Juli's expression was still not very good, and the two of them tied the horse back to the shed, then he covered his still aching chest and said, "Don't tell Shizhu about my loss today."

"Hey, it's too full of bragging in front of others." Zisang shook his head and sighed repeatedly. .

Shi Zhu had always felt that people in the army who were not easy to talk to would pester Zisang every day.

Later, when Juli came, one loved to brag, and the other liked to listen to others' bragging.

Ju Li refused to admit it: "What I said is all the truth. I'm not telling the truth. There's no bragging. Didn't I hack the grizzly bear and the long-toothed wild boar to death?"

"Yeah, Juli is a young man who can catch tigers with his bare hands." Zisang responded and waved him goodbye.

A light armored soldier and a general accompanying him, their positions and residences in the army are naturally far apart.

Daxue shook his tail at Juli, then turned around and followed Zisang away.

After walking a few steps, Ju Li said again across a long distance, "Don't tell Shi Zhu."

No one turned back, Zisang smiled, and patted Daxue on the neck: "People who are several years older than me are still young."

He still wanted to go home and marry a daughter-in-law to be his father. When he went up to the city wall and looked at the cemetery where thirty thousand loyal bones were buried in the distance, Zisang felt a little disappointed.

She had watched Juli go to join the army at the beginning, but when she came to Jingxuan Pass, she never expected to meet Li Juli again.

When a man enters the battlefield, it is common to bury his bones.

Knowing that this is a big battle, knowing that Li Juli also wants to be an iron-blooded man, but she still can respond to Li Juli with those words.

I just want to step on my horse and return to safety.

Li Juli is also one of her few friends, he is like a family member, although he has never called him a big brother, but after a few years, he is better than a big brother.

It's not just Li Juli, a veteran of the sentry at the top of the city, and tens of thousands of recruits behind the city. Even a small soldier like Shi Zhu who has been blamed for his troubles also wants to be a man who sweats for the country.

What is it for? It is for the safety and prosperity of the fertile Nanliang land within the pass.

But those bastards, under the protection of such iron and blood, defended themselves for their own benefit and stayed in high positions.

The prosperity of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.

These people who only think about their own high-ranking officials are deceiving people who don't know what Wentao and Wuzhi are, but only know the loyalty and heroism of the predecessors.

With one foot stomping on the snow, Zisang turned back and went down the tower to the big tent. Just in time, he opened his mouth and asked, "Is there a voice on today's tour?"

Shaking his head.

In addition to anxiety, Kuang Xun's face also showed grief.

Ten years ago, he was in the prime of his life, and he thought that after the war, he would return home and take care of his children and grandchildren.

But after all, he couldn't part with the [-] bones outside Jingxuan Pass.

This stay lasted for ten years, and my son was two years old, and Lu Yao could not see him.

This stay lasted for ten years, and his wife entered Huang Tong's coffin before Qi Mei returned.

Zhou Zai is a good boy in war, without him, Kuang Xun, I would be nothing more than a common man, with nothing but a crown of anger, and blood licking the knife.

How easy it is to have a hot-blooded head, and we are not afraid of men, but we can no longer do the thing of going to death with ten thousand bravery.

Kuang Xun drank the last half of the bowl of wine for the day, and when he wanted to open his mouth to order another drink, he realized that his quantity had been exhausted.

According to Zhou Zai's rules, unless there is a special reason, no one in the army should drink more than three bowls a day.

The status in the military has always been random, and the status is not obvious. Anyway, everyone lives and dies together.

But in Zhou Zai's army, there are not many military regulations, but they must be kept in mind to stick to them.

So Kuang Xun got rid of his alcohol addiction for many years under Zhou Zaili's rules.

After much deliberation, Kuang Xun went to the cemetery to read the letter in person by pressing the waist knife and making people open the small gate and stepping on the frozen snow outside the city gate.

Zisang didn't go because she knew that a sergeant had gone there only a quarter of an hour ago.

The veterans who know the inside story have become more and more dull recently, and everyone feels the same in their hearts.

There can be no Zhou Zai in this army, at least in this battle, there cannot be no Zhou Zai.

He is the hero in the Nanliang Goulan play, he is the undead warrior who cut off the head of the King of Dongchi with a long knife.

Nanliang fought Dongchi with only [-] soldiers this time, only legend can solve it, otherwise——

must lose.

At this time, Zhou Zai's voice seemed to be resounding in the empty school grounds five days before the 51 people left the customs.

"I hope that everyone will be of one heart and one mind, not seeking revenge, but only seeking to find out and return safely."

With the cold wind piercing through his armor, Zisang galloped his horse and bowed around the school field, shooting arrow after arrow into the bull's-eye.

One arrow hits the heart, two arrows hits, three arrows hits, four arrows...

I can hit a hundred shots, and I can sit still on the horse, so what's the use?

At this time, it is deep winter, and it is only a hundred days away from spring.

Every spring, Nanliang is full of water, and there must be many internal worries. When the spring blooms, according to Luo Zhong, Grandpa Wang will not be able to survive the spring no matter how much he can hold on.

These useless courtiers, useless state capitals, useless

——His Royal Highness Shijun.

The resentment in her heart made her just want to shoot arrow after arrow. She clearly always wanted to avoid something drunk and dreamy, but now she was holding on to her heart tightly.

She couldn't fully explain what it was, but it felt like it was slowly grabbing her, causing her heart, which should have been light, to sink. She didn't dare to face it, fearing it would be too heavy.

When he stretched out his hand to grab the arrows again, he realized that all the arrows in the arrow basket had been shot, and Zisang felt that the bones of his hands were sore.

Daxue watched her with pale green eyes, and slightly exhaled white mist from his mouth.

Zisang reached out and stroked its neck: "It would be great if Bai Yunmo was here."

If Bai Yunmo was here, she would hug my head, and she would always say it's okay.

Bai Yunmo is the kind of person who wants to straighten me up in a dream and say, that is a dream, Zisang, see clearly.

All of a sudden, he rolled off his horse and lay down on the frozen snow.

In the flawless blue night sky hangs a round of cold jade plates far away.

I should have received the letter I sent you last time. It's just a few words, and it's about you under the red makeup.
