It turns out that I too have been robbed.

It wasn't the first time Pei Ruzhou went to Jiuchongtian a year ago, and he entered Fengcheng for the first time.

Pei Ruzhou, who probably knew the princes and nobles of Fengcheng, searched his memory, but still couldn't find any information about this person.

Pei Ruzhou guessed that the Marquis Guang Ce written in "Tian Chen" should not be of noble origin.He is very likely to be a soldier who has made military exploits in these wars.

But who is he?

Pei Ruzhou's thoughts suddenly became chaotic, and he always felt that the answer seemed to be right in front of him...

You Weining handed over many matters to Pei Ruzhou, just as he thought of this, a soldier ran over to talk to Pei Ruzhou.

Pei Ruzhou got busy again, and by the time the war started again, he had already forgotten what he was thinking about that day.

In the following time, the war in the Western Regions continued.

Speaking of which, the books that Pei Ruzhou was enlightened when he was a child were all kinds of military tactics and maps.He didn't think it was a big deal before, but when he stood on the battlefield now, Pei Ruzhou realized how useful what he had learned was.

The drought in the Western Regions was very serious, so although they retreated in succession, the war still could not stop.At this moment, there seemed to be only two dead ends in front of them - either return to the Western Regions and die due to drought, or fight against Dayi and die in war.

In this case, no matter what they say, they have to fight for the last chance of life for themselves.

The battle is getting bigger and bigger.

On this day, Pei Ruzhou ushered in the biggest battle outside the pass.

The sound of the collision of cold weapons lasted for a full six hours.By the time the Western Regions team started to turn back and run into the depths of the desert, the entire day had been spent on the battlefield.

And looking at the backs of those people in distress, Pei Ruzhou, who was riding on a horse, suddenly made a decision.

Prior to this, although Pei Ruzhou took advantage of the victory to pursue and even captured a small city in the Western Regions, he had no intention of continuing to go deep into the desert.

But seeing the backs of those people going away now, Pei Ruzhou finally had an extremely bold idea in his heart.

——He wants to catch up with those people and fight all the way to the royal court in the Western Regions!

This was almost Pei Ruzhou's instinctive reaction.

Before he had time to think deeply, Pei Ruzhou turned around and said to the soldiers behind him, "Go! Catch up with those remnants and defeated generals!"

Which one of the soldiers stationed at the border is not extremely passionate?

After hearing Pei Ruzhou's words, they were even more excited than Pei Ruzhou.

In an instant, cheers resounded in the desert outside the pass.The officers and soldiers of the Central Plains Dynasty, who have always been refined and gentle, unexpectedly headed towards the depths of the desert at high speed under the leadership of Pei Ruzhou.

The strong wind blew on Pei Ruzhou's cheeks, taking away all the warmth. At this time, he was only making choices based on instinct.

Pei Ruzhou never thought about what would happen after failure. At this moment, he had only one goal—to win.

He couldn't throw away this opportunity.

There are a total of fourteen countries in the Western Regions, and the one closest to the Zhoulan Pass is the Yintang Kingdom.

The battle just now lasted for a full six hours, and the time also unknowingly reached night.

It was also at this time that Pei Ruzhou was suddenly blessed when he saw the stars all over the sky - he knew how to go to the deepest part of the Western Regions!

In the past time, it was not only the strong soldiers and horses of the Western Regions that stood in the way of the Great Yi alone.

The important thing is that they don't know the mountains and rivers of the Western Regions. Although the business exchanges between the two sides have never stopped, Dayi only has a very simple map of the Western Regions.

There is a large uninhabited desert outside the day orchid pass, and they don't even know whether these sand dunes are quicksand or sand hills that have not changed for many years.

Therefore, compared with those Western Regions people who are familiar with the terrain and landforms, once they go deep into the hinterland of the desert, the Dayi soldiers probably have no chance of survival at all.

However, at the moment when he looked up at the starry sky, Pei Ruzhou finally remembered - although the Western Regions are also well-developed in commerce, their culture and technology are far from being comparable to those in the Central Plains.

For example, their understanding of the astrology in the sky and the arrangement of various planets is very shallow.

However, Dayi is different.

Dayi believes in Fengshui, and metaphysical astrology is one of them, as can be seen from the current emperor's obsession with the art of immortality.Although Pei Ruzhou grew up in the border, he is also a nobleman after all, so he has naturally learned relevant content.

If this matter is placed on alchemy and seeking longevity, it is of course meaningless, but if it is placed in another place, it will be different.

Pei Ruzhou chose to lie down at night, relying on the alignment of the stars to find his way, and at night, the climate in the desert is more suitable for people to move.

This time, just like what Pei Ruzhou thought just now, they went directly to the imperial court of Yin Tong, and then took down Yin Tong, one of the fourteen countries in the Western Regions, in just three days.

The news went to the palace as quickly as possible.

At the same time, Qi Baili was also heading towards Zhoulan Pass with his troops.

Many of the princes and grandchildren who were born in the capital of Dayi may never leave the capital for the rest of their lives.

Qi Baili, who used to be a proton, has been to Weiguo, but Zhoulan Pass and the Western Regions are still far away words for him.

At that time when Pei Ruzhou told him what there was in Zhoulan Pass and what the desert looked like, Qi Baili had also sketched the picture in his mind.

But before that, he never thought that he would really come here one day.

He wanted to see Pei Ruzhou so much, it usually took several weeks to travel from Fengcheng to Zhoulan Pass, and it might even be delayed for several months if extreme weather was encountered on the way.

If it wasn't for Qi Baili who was accompanied by many people from the capital, he would have gone towards the Zhoulan Pass at a faster speed than the envoy.

Although the journey was much slower, as the destination approached, Qi Baili's nervous mood did not seem to ease up at all.

Leaving Fengcheng, crossing the big river, passing through countless mountains and forests.Before I knew it, the scenery in front of me was completely different.

Although the capital is also a scene of fertile fields and thousands of miles of affluence, such plains are different from the vast grasslands and deserts in the frontier where you can see the end of the sky at a glance.

Qi Baili saw a dark blue lake in the distance, he had never seen such a beautiful lake before, the lake was connected to the sky, as if the Tianhe River had leaked down.

And not far from the lakeside, there are towering snow-capped mountains.

In front of Qi Baili was the scenery that Pei Ruzhou had introduced to him.

And just like Pei Ruzhou's wish at the time, after seeing such a scene, Qi Baili suddenly felt that falling in love with Pei Ruzhou's favorite world, falling in love with his favorite Zhoulan Pass is a very beautiful thing...

Continuing to the west, the surrounding vegetation is getting lower and lower.

The moment he saw the first piece of yellow sand, Qi Baili knew that he was about to meet Pei Ruzhou.

On the way, Qi Baili also encountered many messengers who set off from Zhoulan Pass to the capital.

Qi Baili knew that Pei Ruzhou was now going deep into the Western Regions, and he was accomplishing a feat that no one had ever succeeded before.

I don't know what kind of emotion it was, he was obviously rushing forward all the way, but after arriving here, Qi Baili actually slowed down his pace.

……

Three days later, Qi Baili arrived at the outskirts of Zhoulan Pass.

He only stayed here for half a day, and then he led five or six people towards the city where Pei Ruzhou is now.

Everyone knows that going deep into the battlefield is a very dangerous thing, let alone that he is still a prince.If there is an accident, I am afraid there will be big trouble.However, Qi Baili at this time has no one who can stop him.

It happened to be evening when Qi Baili saw Pei Ruzhou.

Not long after a battle ended, Qi Baili saw Pei Ruzhou sitting alone on a hill made of yellow sand from a distance.

Behind him is the red sun setting in the west, this round of sun is bigger than any day Qi Baili has seen before.

And that light appeared right behind Pei Ruzhou, Qi Baili could only see a circle of silhouettes.

At this time, Pei Ruzhou didn't look like a real person, he looked like he walked out of an ink painting.

Qi Baili suddenly didn't dare to breathe, for fear of alarming the people in front.

But at this moment, I heard the sound of a pipa coming from nowhere.

Seeing that silhouette, Qi Baili realized that it was Pei Ruzhou playing the piano.

My thoughts suddenly returned to the first day they met.

The sound of the pipa fills the entire desert in an instant.

Pei Ruzhou smiled, and the wind blew up his sleeves and the long ribbon on top of his head.The dark red sun continued to sink, and the sky had already been dyed a rich purple.

Qi Baili never knew that the sky could be so beautiful.

The sound of the pipa is frighteningly fast, like a drum on a battlefield.

At this time, another soldier who didn't know where came from sang softly.

"Don't you see that walking along the Machuan River and the snowy seaside, the flat sand is wild and yellow into the sky..."[1]

The voice was hoarse, as if it had been ground by gravel.

The wind blew, and the golden sand rushed into the sky.

In Qi Baili's eyes, there was only that one person.
