The most dangerous pass in the world, easy to defend but difficult to attack.

The east and west sides are connected with cliffs, stretching for dozens of kilometers, and the cliff is more than [-] feet high, which is dangerous and unattainable.

No matter how difficult the dangerous pass is, it is only afraid of someone with a heart. For example, a king like Chi Yu spent ten years hoarding troops and food, and entered the cold place in early winter, living in danger.

In a blink of an eye, it has been the [-]th day of Xinzheng, and Dongchi's fortifications at the mouth of Huifeng Valley are still in progress.

From the perspective of the effect, the fortifications are still relatively slow, and the thickness is only reduced by a few inches per day. However, at this speed, the entire cliff wall can be pierced when it is completed before the beginning of spring.

Zisang was still lying on the edge of the cliff, leaning out half of her body, drawing a bow and shooting arrows on the fortifications. After many days of hard work, she could almost raise her hand to shoot, and her head was so good that other soldiers were tongue-tied.

Another arrow shot down a silver-armored soldier named Dongchi. Zisang felt that there were no more arrows beside him, so he stood up and took a rest.

Behind them was a group of Nanliang armored soldiers responsible for laying bricks.

As the water melted into ice, pieces of ice bricks that could only be lifted by more than a dozen people were slowly piled up on the edge of the cliff.

Almost all the soldiers in the battalion participated in the repair of the Yajing Line.

After a few days of hard work, the entire cliff boundary line suddenly became higher and higher by four Wangzhang.

At the mouth of Return Wind Valley, in addition to setting aside a certain range for archers to shoot arrows, ice bricks are also stacked behind.

If the earth and rocks below were dug through by Dongchi, these ice bricks would probably be able to smash a large group of enemies.

Everything has two sides, and the destructive power brought by ice bricks will be obvious.

At that time, the ice bricks can well destroy Dongchi's siege ladder, which is also equivalent to giving Dongchi a higher foundation.

At that time, the falling ice bricks will inevitably form a slope, and Dongchi soldiers only need to wait a few days until the falling ice bricks freeze into one piece before they can climb up.

Therefore, it is not very useful to strengthen the height of the defense line, and reinforcements are still needed.

However, Fengzhou did not send the letter of meeting soldiers for a long time, and there was no movement even after sending out multiple Cui Zhao, and there were occasional replies saying that they were preparing.

A cadre general in the army has been jumping a bit recently, constantly scolding the general Ma who is in charge of leading the army.

It is said that he used to use his troops with great speed, so why did he hesitate at this time.

Zhou Zai was also a little impatient, and asked Zisang to send another letter every day to ask questions, and then send another letter.

When I returned to the camp at night, a group of people were rubbing their hands in the military tent and rubbing their hands.

"We must find someone to respond, whether it is 15 or [-], we should call some people here first, who knows what Dongchi's plan is, in case of pre-emptive strikes."

As Kuang Xun spoke, he repeatedly slapped the table, watching the fortifications at the entrance of Huifeng Valley get higher and higher, and his beard grew higher and higher.

He has guarded the Jingxuan Pass for so many years, so naturally he can't stand it anymore. If this place collapses, it will be a big loophole. It is easy for outsiders to get in, so what is the number one pass in the world?

All the generals agree with this point, and now the whole battalion knows that Dongchi's troops outnumber mine, if there is no reinforcements, fighting at that time will be tantamount to hitting each other with pebbles.

Finally, it was agreed that a lieutenant general would order [-] troops to go to Cui Bing in Fengzhou.

Deputy General Zuo stood up and asked, "But what if the other party said that the 15 yuan was not prepared, and there was a deliberate delay?"

This is also true, they all have heavy soldiers in their hands, and officials cannot overwhelm officials.

"We have the imperial edict of the king's seal here, and then you can go and make the order with the king's sword."

At this time, Zisang remembered the two things in his hand, Wang Yin can command the world, and Wang Yijian is also a royal token. .

Qing Xigong had already nodded his head on this matter, so there was nothing wrong with having a big edict, and the other party couldn't say anything about using Wang Liejian as a token.

Zhou Zai nodded, so he drew up the relevant documents that night.

Zisang still opened the box that he brought out when he left Baibi City for the first time, and he still remembered that it weighed nine catties and nine taels.

One side of the white jade ring is engraved with four beasts, which is heavy in the hand, and the seal is turned over, and it is engraved with an order from the sky, and the society has no boundaries.

It is rumored that there is only this one big jade seal in the whole world. When the kingdoms were conquered from the east, west, north, south, and four directions, the east, west, and north sides recognized the Lord of Nanliang as the emperor according to the agreement when the ancestors raised their troops. Therefore, this great seal replaces the world's borders with "Boundless". A family is ordered by heaven.

Forgetting things from generation to generation, the countries and even some small princes gradually closed their borders and did not communicate with each other, and then fought with each other later, and gradually became feuds.

It was used to stamp the written imperial edict, and handed over to the deputy general in charge together with Wang Yujian on the morning of the [-]nd.

I'm afraid it will take a month to travel to Fengzhou, but I hope everything will go smoothly.

The wind and snow have slowed down recently, and based on past experience, it is speculated that there should be no big snowstorms. A group of military horses were assigned to escort these to the nearest city of Yu'a behind Tai'ehou, and then sent to various places.

Bai Yunmo, who was in charge of taking care of the wounded soldiers, was much more relaxed. Every day when Zisang was young, he would visit A ​​Piao or chat with Shi Zhu.

"Its stomach has already started to swell." Shi Zhu cooked the meat assigned to A Piao in a pot, then crushed it for him, put it in a basin and pushed it in front of him.

Daxue also turned his head to come to eat, and pushed Shi Zhu away: "As a male wolf, how can he compete with his wife for food."

Bai Yunmo also smiled at Daxue apologetically, rubbed its neck and said, "This is extra for Ah Piao, you have eaten raw meat just now."

Daxue put his head on the ground wearily.

"Amo, I have a letter for you."

Li Juli was out of breath, and handed the letter to Bai Yunmo. He had just finished stationing on the cliff boundary line and came down from the wall to eat in rotation. He happened to be distributing letters from home, so he continued to run with the letter signed by Doctor Amo. come over.

Before Bai Yunmo could thank Li Juli, she flew away. Seeing him like this, Bai Yunmo could only sigh: "As long as there is work in the army, he is always the first to take the lead."

"That's not very good, many people like to be friends with him." When Shi Zhu said this, her tone was sullen, and she didn't mean to be happy at all.

Since the beginning of the new year, Li Juli has many friends around him. After all, he is the one who has the New Year's Eve banquet at the same table as the general.

Especially when Zhou Zai and Kuang Xun went out to toast that day, Li Juli helped General Kuang Xun, and many people saw him, so no matter where he went, someone would point to him and say: Isn’t it the one who came to toast with General Zhou Zai that day? him.

After becoming famous, Li Juli worked even harder. From morning to night, he was lazy when others were working, and he even ate twice as fast as others.

In this way, Shizhu basically couldn't see his shadow, and Li Juli didn't wear those Tana shoes much.

Bai Yunmo saw that Shizhu looked a bit frustrated, and patted him on the head with the letter in his hand: "You, if you have nothing to do, you should go to the school yard to practice pile splitting, and stop thinking about weird things."

Just when Shi Zhu wanted to complain that his hands were soaked, he saw the master chef in the kitchen bring in a large spoon, and he was so scared that he hugged his head and ran away.

Shaking his head, Bai Yunmo smiled and opened the letter box. It was a lacquered copper tube with the unique logo of the Bai family engraved on it, but the soldiers were so vulgar that they didn't know it.

The letter was unfolding, and there was darkness in front of my eyes.

With a pair of cold hands and slightly raised red lips, the man leaned forward, turned his head and kissed the side face of the person behind him accurately.

Those hands still didn't let go, two soft lips lingered on her lips for a while, and then asked: "Aren't you afraid of admitting the wrong person?"

"How come, I know it's you."

"How did you meet?"

"Hmm..." After thinking about it, Bai Yunmo couldn't come up with an answer: "Anyway, I know, as soon as I touch you, my body will be limp, and I will immediately lie in your arms like now."

Only then did Zisang move his hand away, while pinching her face, put one arm around her waist, stared at the letter in front of him and asked, "What did you write?"

"Mother wrote it, I haven't read it yet."

Bai's letter said that she recently heard that Bianguan was going to Acheng to repatriate wounded soldiers. She happened to be in Tongzhou and could reach Acheng in two or three days.

"Mother said she wanted to see me."

Let her be with the escort team who rescued the wounded soldiers, and then it's okay to go back to the palace camp or go back to Baibi City with her.

Since the incident with A Zhu, she has not been happy in her heart these days, and it is the time of Xinzheng again, and Zisang is away for days, she really misses her relatives very much.

"Then go and see."

Zisang thought for a while and said, "Maybe I can accompany you."

"Don't you go out to shoot arrows every day?"

When Bai Yunmo said that, she was a little aggrieved.

On the sixth day of Xinzheng, Zisang got up early every day and walked away with his bow on his back. When he came back at night, he fell asleep and fell asleep. The two of them basically talked much less.

Zisang also took advantage of Xiegang to run back. Seeing Bai Yunmo's dissatisfied look, he bit her earlobe and said, "I don't trust you."

But when it came to Zhou Zai, Zhou Zai also said, "I'm not at ease."

The matter of Bo Yu is still lingering fear. If it weren't for that Ah Zhu, Shijun who he promised the king to protect would have been killed when he was drunk.

Zisang meant that Ah Cheng was originally located in a secluded place, and they would not be noticed among a group of wounded soldiers.

"No matter what, the repatriation of wounded soldiers is handled by a dedicated person. It is already a violation of military regulations for you to leave the camp as an attendant."

Bai Yunmo also came in: "If the Bai family can buy and donate supplies, and let the general accompany him to receive them, wouldn't it be too much?"

Zhou Zai was somewhat tempted. The medicines Bai's original gift had been put to good use. Although there was no major shortage in the army, there were never too many details.

In the end, he shook his head and said to Zisang, "I don't understand why you insist on going to Yu Acheng."

Zisang held Bai Yunmo's hand in his palm and said, "No one else, just care about her."

Then the two looked at each other shamelessly and laughed.

Zhou Zai looked at both of them, and didn't know what to say, so he just shook his hands and said, "Hurry back with the guards within seven days."

So on the second day, they quickly cleaned up and helped the guards deal with the wounded soldiers.

Those who can ride horses can ride horses, and those who can't can only be stuffed on a large cart, with horses in the front and people behind them pushing.

Zisang recruited Daxue to accompany him, and A Piao also followed behind, but nothing could stop him.

Fortunately, my stomach was not too bulging, and I thought that I would not be able to walk fast, so I packed the two of them's meat and set off on the road together.

It's just that on the road, I can't help but feel a little nervous, and I come to see A Piao from time to time, and the two wolves always rub their necks and roll around, so happy.

"I want my mother to bring Ah Piao back to Baibi City."

Bai Yunmo sighed slightly: "It's easy to take care of in Baibi City, but I feel a little wronged in the army."

Unlike Daxue, Ah Piao was like a precious pet since he was a child, he ate finely, slept softly, and girls smoothed his hair every day.

From Bai Yunmo's point of view, why did she feel that A Piao had lost weight after arriving in the army, and now that she had a wolf cub in her stomach, she was even more worried.

At the end of the day, the captain in charge of the guard ordered a fire to be built on the spot for the night.

Everyone scattered around to collect some dry firewood. There were not many guards, and the wounded soldiers were not very capable of doing things.

These things can only be done by the people in the guards, and Bai Yunmo and Zisang are not idle.

Therefore, there are many wild beasts infesting the place, and the commander ordered not to spread too far.

Bai Yunmo shined a torch on the two of them, and Zisang handed out the dead branches quickly.

Daxue suddenly sniffed it on the ground and growled uncomfortably around a slightly concave place on the ground.

"Zi Sang?"

Zisang turned around and pulled out the snow to part the snow on the ground, and when he looked down, he was startled.

Several other people were called to help to dig up the snow layer.

Under the snow layer was Azhu lying flat, beside Ayu hugging her sideways, because she was frozen, except for her pale complexion, she was not far from her usual appearance. .

They didn't expect to meet here. They already thought about Bo Yu that day, but they still felt sad after seeing this scene with their own eyes.

"Dig a deeper hole and put the two of them in the ground, or they will be exposed when the snow melts in spring."

Zisang ordered someone to dig half a zhang down on the spot, and let him down when he saw the soil.

Bai Yunmo put the jade bone fan that fell out of Yu Boyu's arms from the side and put it between the two of them.

After returning to the camp and lighting the fire, Bai Yunmo and Zisang stood shoulder to shoulder, covered with the tiger fur with a corner cut off, she asked Zisang, "Do you think there is an afterlife?"

If there is an afterlife, will A Zhu and Bo Yu meet again, where will it be, and how will it start.

"Yes." I always heard that there is reincarnation before, but in this life, Bo Yu killed A Zhu, because A Zhu owed Po Yu in the previous life, or because Bo Yu owed A Zhu in the next life?

Only the host will know about such things.

The host was to answer questions on behalf of the Lord Buddha. Zisang shook his head, not thinking about the past.

There was no wind and snow along the way, and I arrived in Yu'a City in two days. Because many soldiers were sent to the city continuously, the local government had nowhere to take them in. Many of them pitched tents near the city gate.

Some wounded soldiers were unwilling to go home, some were still waiting for their family members to find them, and some were already homeless, so they made up their minds to let it go.

When their team first entered the city, they saw gorgeous chariots waiting by the side of the road, and the servants on both sides were dressed in bright clothes.

Just a glance at the past, the canopy is light, the servants are full of sleeves, rich and luxurious, and next to them are some soldiers with thin clothes and incomplete limbs. Compared with the two, the heart of the world is full of sadness.

The steward in charge of welcoming the young master has sharp eyes, recognized his own young master at a glance, and came to invite him.

"No need, where is mother, I will go on horseback, drive by car, you wait to go back first."

The person in charge was obviously in a dilemma, until the young master waved his hand away, he waved the car back.

After Zisang discussed with the soldier commander about the follow-up meeting, he rode his horse and followed Bai Yunmo.

At this time, Yu'a City was covered with a thin layer of snow, and there were very few people walking on the street.

If you see someone walking around, it must be a disabled soldier who has no home to live in, and some money that was sent back when he was repatriated is wrapped around his waist, looking for wine to relieve his sorrow.

Since Acheng is small, there is only one long street to the end, and Bai Yunmo only went to the biggest guest house.

I remember that it was also the same room I lived in when I came here, and when I met Bo Yu there, A Zhu held her horse tightly and refused to let her go, he said: "Young Master, if you leave again, something will happen."

But I don't know that this stop is also a matter and a feeling.

Far away from the thin snow on the street, I saw a person in silver fox fur standing in front of the guest house, looking forward to the first look.

Reining in the horse, Bai Yunmo jumped off and jumped on it, almost throwing the head of Bai Shi, who was guarding the door of the guest house, to the ground. Fortunately, there was someone to support him, and he did not forget to joke: "Even if you see the emperor's face, It’s never been this difficult.”

"Aunt Yan." Bai Yunmo always cried a lot, but when she saw Mrs. Bai and her aunt who was always close, her eyes became wet again.

On the other hand, Zisang got off the horse in a bit of a mood, and Bai Yunmo seemed to have forgotten her when he entered the city, and followed her all the way, but she didn't turn her head to greet her.

"Zi Sang has met Madam." This was probably the first time he met her after six years.

Bai Yunmo was still pillowing in her mother's arms at this moment, only then turned her head and wiped away the tears on her face with the back of her hand

About this time I realized that my mother probably didn't know that Zisang would come, so she said, "By the way, Zisang came with me."

"Don't be rigid, let's go in first." Bai Fu said warmly, and greeted him into the room.

When he sat down to look at Bai Ruo again, Zisang couldn't help laughing, and then said: "My lady is still the same as before, she is still astonishingly beautiful."

The person sitting next to Bai Ruo was surprised, and said with a smile: "I remember hearing Bai Yunmo talk about you when she was young, she always said you were stupid, I didn't expect your mouth to be so cute."

"There are not many words that Yunmo said when she was a child that can be heard."

When Bai Ruo was talking, he handed a piece of pebble warm jade the size of a palm to Yunmo's hand, always looking at his daughter: "My mother is afraid every day."

Bai Yunmo immediately turned around and handed it to Zisang: "Hurry up and cover it, this is not only warm, cover it for a long time, and the frostbite on your hands will soon be relieved."

Only now did Bai Ruo sit up straight, sighed and shook her head: "The girl is not allowed to stay."

Zisang put the pebble back in Bai Yunmo's hand, and covered it with his hand.

Bai Yunmo then laughed and said: "My husband is still good, isn't he, Aunt Yan, better than my mother."

Yan Lan nodded immediately: "But I can't compare with your mother. There are too many women in this world who are better than your mother."

"Then why do you still follow mother?" Bai Yunmo actually didn't understand the women around mother.

Bai's brothels are spread all over the world, among them several women who are in charge of affairs in Dazhou Prefecture are all close to their mothers, knowing that their mothers are so fickle, but they are also friendly with each other, they always say that their mothers are not good, but they are willing to do it .

Yan Lan didn't take it seriously, she just lowered her head and took a sip of her mouth: "There's no reason, I can't resist your mother's way, so I can only follow her."

Bai Yunmo wanted to say more, so she gave Bai Ruo a look: "I'm always making fun of my aunts, are you looking good?"

Only then did he stick out his tongue, and skipped mentioning it. .

"Why don't you sit in a carriage and have to ride a horse?"

It's better if you don't mention it, but when you mention it, Bai Yunmo will feel discouraged: "Mother, sometimes you are too rich, and I am afraid when I look at it.

Now I know a lot of wounded soldiers in Acheng. I treat their illnesses, listen to their family affairs, and know that people like them will never be able to sit in such a carriage in their entire lives.

When I was in the army, I persuaded them every day that wealth is up to them, and they can live a good life if they want to, and they still listen.

What would they think if they saw me sitting in such a chariot and knew that I was born with a hundred times better life than them? "

She didn't dare to sit down and was always very guilty.

"Mother, if I wasn't your daughter, I certainly wouldn't be like this, and I certainly wouldn't be able to learn any kind of magic doctor. I don't have any of these in front of me."

Born in a rich and powerful family, it is unbelievable to see a little poverty, and it is easy to feel sad.

Sometimes I feel fortunate that I am my mother's daughter, and my mother is from the Bai family, and sometimes I feel a lot of shame in the face of those thousands of people who shed blood and sweat for a full mouthful.

Bai Ruo shook his head straight: "You, just mess around with these things, you are born to be the young master of the Bai family, so you can be your young master with peace of mind. There are not many rich and honored people in the world, and there are so many poor people like these in front of you." The wounded soldiers you have healed."

"That's right, to be a human being in the world, it is necessary to keep one's own position. Otherwise, if everyone thinks that wealth is wrong like you, then it doesn't mean that everyone doesn't want to do business well and enjoy the world. How could there be, and how could there be luxury houses and mansions, wouldn’t the world become desolate from this.”

When he said this, Zisang's thoughts also moved: "So the desire for power is also like this."

"I've been used to business for a long time, but I have a rough idea of ​​fame and fortune."

There is a little meaning in the words here, but let's listen to Madam.

"Sometimes, people in the world say that we should let go of fame and fortune, let go of greed, but if it is true that everyone is of one heart and one mind, that is the real troubled world. For example, if everyone is not greedy, not competitive, then everything will be Enough is enough, if everyone can get enough to eat three meals a day, then who will start a business, all of them will only cultivate the three acres of land in front of them, where will the food come from, where will the clothes come from? Talk about whether desire can be restrained, but without desire, you will not know what is bliss. People in the world have the same heart and mind, and do the same thing. They are neither rash nor impetuous and do not live for glory. It is really worth living a small life Is it worth it?"

After listening to this conversation, Zisang probably understood why Yan Lan said that he couldn't resist Bai's way.

There may be some paradox in this statement, but it can also be seen that Bai Ruo is very concerned about the goodness of the world's greed.
