I broke my sleeves with the son

The next morning, before dawn, Jiang Luoqing packed up and got out of bed, put on the inner and middle clothes, then put on the white coarse clothes, put on the iron armor, and went out.

Qi Du went out earlier than him, and is already making arrangements at this moment.

When Jiang Luoqing arrived at the place, the lights were brightly lit. After standing up spontaneously, someone came up with a notebook and matched people one by one. He seemed more reliable, and the [-] households in the statistics named him the captain of the ten-person team and asked him to take care of the nine people.

After finishing it in such a noisy manner, without much fanfare, these people left the capital before dawn.

And as far as Jiang Luoqing knew, there was another group of elite soldiers who were led by Qi Du to stay in the capital. After the current Holy Majesty finished speaking and sent off the people, they left the capital in the morning light under the watchful eyes of the people of the capital. .

Kyoto is in the east, looking out from Kyoto as the center, there are natural dangers and poisonous barriers in the west, and there is a human wall spontaneously built by those people from the Jianghu, which is the boundary of Jinzhou City.

There are many waters and insects in the south, easy to defend but difficult to attack, and there are city walls and many mountains, those people can't get through.

Now Jiang Luoqing and the others are going to the true north.

The north has been infested by sandstorms and neighboring barbarians all year round, and the folk customs have become more and more fierce. People from other places do not want to stay in the northern frontier, and the people on the frontier are fighting the enemy with blood. Dagger.

This place is called Ruoshui.It is said that a poet came here a hundred years ago and saw the people and girls here. The poet happened to be very famous, so he named the city Ruoshui.The highest kindness is like water, treat people with kind thoughts, beauty is like water, and gentleness is like water.

It's a pity that now, a hundred years later, there are not many good people left in Ruoshui, and there are no gentle girls left.

A hundred years ago, the charming green hills turned into wastelands, and the city walls with pink makeup were dilapidated.The descendants of the wealthy and heroic people of the past have become desperadoes, and there is no tomorrow.

There is no hope, and no outsider wants to come and live in this city.

They can only work hard to survive and hold on to this, the land of their ancestors.

Jiang Luoqing's first stop was here.

Someone was talking about Ruoshui City on the road, and he listened to it for a long time, and what he heard was that the flowers were beautiful.

After more than half a month, they finally arrived at Ruoshui City. The city covers an area of ​​hundreds of miles, which is enough to show how prosperous the city was back then, but now, it has been eroded by yellow sand, and only the plaque on the city looks like It has been wiped carefully all the time, so it looks extraordinarily clean, and the writing on it is extraordinarily clear.

Du Jun and Qi Jun split into two groups for the time being, because Qi Du received an urgent report on the way, and after meeting Jiang Luoqing in private, Qi Du hurriedly left.

Jiang Luoqing had his arms across his shoulders. A young man was in poor health. He passed out once on the way today. He managed to wake him up, but the man turned pale and told him that he was really going to go. not moving.

In the end, he had no choice but to shoulder the duties of the captain, half-supporting and half-back leading people all the way.

The [-] recruits just stood outside the city under the sun, without even opening the city gate.

The thousand households who led the people went up and called for the gate of the city, but no one came to answer the gate.

They couldn't force their way in, so everyone just waited outside. The sun was really big, and it was scorching hot.

Jiang Luoqing's face was peeled from the sun, but because of Tao Xin, her body recovered faster.

He had been marching all the way for so long, and his feet had blisters and burst, and the pain was unbearable. Fortunately, in their team, he relied on him, a half-dead man who could barely understand medicine, and was thinking about Jiang Luoqing, who was protecting them. , so I specially found herbs for him.

Jiang Luoqing's feet were worn out and blistered yesterday, and the pain was unbearable, but now it's hot and painful.

He saw a large group of people sitting down clattering around him, so he helped the people on his back to sit on the ground, sat down himself, and taught the person to lean on him.

His feet really hurt, and changing the dressing every night was like tearing off a layer of flesh. Under the scorching sun, his eyes turned black from the pain.

"Does it hurt?" A very soft voice sounded, with a touch of softness, which was the person's natural accent.

Jiang Luoqing blinked. There was sweat running down from the corner of his forehead and accumulating on his chin. It was a little itchy. He stretched out his hand and scratched it gently. He shook his head and said, "It's not very painful. I can bear it. How are you doing?"

The face of the person leaning on him was still pale and ugly, but he seemed to have recovered a little and said softly: "It's better, but I have to trouble Captain Jiang to let me lean on it. I don't have any strength right now."

Jiang Luoqing did not doubt that he was there, "It's okay, you can rely on it."

The man let out a "hmm", his face and voice were very obedient, and he only occasionally looked at Jiang Luoqing's eyes, which was so dark that it was shocking.

Jiang Luoqing didn't realize it. It was quite a sight for 2 people to sit on the ground together. Some even lay down and basked in the sun, as if they were dead, like corpses.

The person who opened the city gate was also a little bit guilty when he saw this posture. Could it be that the people from Kyoto are too delicate and just died or fainted like this?

Thinking in his heart, but didn't show it on his face, the city gate opened, and several people greeted him with smiling faces.

Seeing that the gate of Ruoshui City was finally opened, Jiang Luoqing stood up and helped the person leaning on him up, and said in a low voice, "Get up, it's time to enter the city."

Sure enough, without saying a few words, the leaders of the two parties led the crowd towards the city, and when they entered the city, the door behind them was closed with a bang.

Jiang Luoqing glanced back, the gate of the city wall was very thick, and there were usually dozens of people who could not close it, but there were less than ten people who closed the gate.

Jiang Luoqing frowned, and looked around her eyes, but what she saw was a high wall with decaying blue bricks, and yellow sand and dry grass flying all over the sky.

The weight on his body disappeared, Jiang Luoqing looked over and saw that the man had stood firm by himself, and smiled at him.Jiang Luoqing nodded to him. The weight on his body was gone, which did lighten his burden. He controlled his steps and tried not to look so staggering.
