Chapter 249 Heaven Cries (3)(1/2)
Chapter 249: The Crying of Heaven (Three)
The mountain rain did not come, but a heavy snow fell at midnight.
But I saw snowflakes as big as goose feathers falling down one after another, covering the lonely world in a layer of cold white.
This is the first snowfall since the beginning of winter in northern Xinjiang, and it is very heavy.
After several days of running around, I almost forgot the changes of the seasons. Unconsciously, according to the Qin calendar, it has been a new year. The cold wind whistled across the plain, rolling up snow dust in the sky. The hazy world became blurred, as if everything had become less real, as if illusory, making people feel an inexplicable chill. From the depths of their hearts, it quickly spread throughout their body.
Liu Kan subconsciously tightened his robe.
After walking through the valley path ahead, you will see Yangcaogou.
"Slaughter, let everyone get faster and pass the valley path quickly."
"Here!"
It seems to be back to the years when I was in Fuping.
A group of old Qin people who were not afraid of heaven and earth fought endlessly with the Huns. And their leader was also the King of Beiguang Wu.
At this moment, a soldier responsible for exploring the way forward rushed over.
"June, don't leave now."
"What happened?"
"A soldier is coming ten miles south. When we go out now, we will definitely meet those people, and we will inevitably fight."
Is it the scout of the Qin army?
These days, it is not uncommon for such a team. There are dozens of people in the number and dozens of people in the fewest. You can tell at a glance that it is a scout team. But in such a bad weather, does the scout still have to come out to patrol? Liu Kan couldn't help but frowned and fell into deep thought.
"Everyone hides his whereabouts and waits for the other party to pass by, we will take action."
Everyone immediately dismounted their horses, comforted the horses, so that they did not make a sound. Fortunately, their current location was in the dense forest on the side of the valley path. Looking inside from the outside of the forest, they could not see clearly. In addition, the sky was dark and the snow was covered with snow, so the visibility was even lower. However, if you look out from the dense forest, you could see a rough look. Liu Kan stood behind a big tree and looked out of the forest.
It took about two hundred breaths, and a group of people came creaking on the small road in the valley.
Judging from the number of people, it is about one genus, which is fifty people. There were ten people riding horses, and the leader was a young general, about twenty-two years old, with red lips and white teeth, and quite graceful. Forty soldiers were escorting three prison vans. There were people in the van, but they couldn't see clearly. It turned out that this was not a scout, but a guard who was escorting prisoners. However, it was a bit unusual to have to hurry up with such a heavy storm? Although there were not many soldiers, it could be seen that these soldiers were very talented.
Who is the escort?
Liu Kan was thinking, and only heard someone screaming in the prison car.
"Wang Bian, I'm hungry, I want to eat."
The young general in charge was furious when he heard this. He turned his horse's head and shouted sternly: "You thief prisoner, you are not safe all the way. Don't you see what your identity is now? Do you think you are the eldest son of the general? Eating... I'm so troubled all the way, and I'm still hungry. It's not difficult to eat, but when I arrive in Jiuyuan City, you will naturally have something to eat. Now shut up."
The voice of the person in the prison car sounds so familiar!
Liu Kan was stunned, but Tu Tu couldn't help but open his eyes widened, hold the bronze axe tightly, and lowered his voice: "June, you are two young masters."
ah……
It’s the Mengji and the Monk brothers!
They became prisoners? But it is normal to think about it... Wang Li couldn't understand the so-called "cutting the roots" principle. Meng Tian died, so how could Mengji Mengke and the two brothers were safe and sound? They had been busy escaping before, but they didn't expect to meet his brothers here.
After looking at each other with Tu Tu, Liu Kan made a decision.
Mengjimuk, you must save it...
He raised his hand and made a gesture in the air. The eight-story cavalrymen ran around with Liu Kandong, which was a three or four years old. After surviving the bloody battles, they had formed a tacit understanding with Liu Kan. With Liu Kan waved, they immediately understood the meaning. They took the bow and took the arrow, and quickly reached the edge of the dense forest. Then they knelt on one knee, bent their bows and arrows to wait for the order.
This Loufan Cavalry was originally a naturalized Hu people and was good at riding and shooting.
It can hold a strong bow and ride a fierce horse. The bow and arrow are all black zhe bows, with six stone power, and can penetrate copper armor within a hundred steps; the arrow is a wolf tongue arrow, and it is also a standard sharp arrow of the Qin army. It is a powerful weapon for the Qin Arrow Array to deal with the Huns, and it is extremely powerful.
The wind is strong and the snow is filled with dust.
Liu Kan calculated that after rushing out of the dense forest, he would start to fight hand-to-hand after three rounds of arrows. With such a big wind and snow, it would be difficult to judge how many people could be injured by Lizhi. In other words, after three rounds of arrows, he and the slaughtered ten people would have to fight with the other party.
Several ways of fighting quickly emerged in my mind and chose the best solution.
Liu Kan inserted the red flag upside down in front of him, took out the big yellow bow, and put a red-stemmed white feather arrow on it. He heard a slight sound, and the bow opened like a full moon.
The red stem and white feathered arrows as thick as thumbs roared away from the string.
The young man on the horse's back turned around and walked directly in front of the team. The red-stemmed white-feathered arrow was coming in front of him. The wind was indeed very strong, but the red-stemmed white-feathered arrow was shot out with a strong bow of twelve stones. It can be said that it can penetrate the metal and stone in a distance of 150 steps.
The cold wind did not have much effect on the red-stemmed white-feathered arrow, but it concealed the sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air.
The young general was caught off guard and turned his head to see that the sharp arrow had arrived. The red-stemmed white-feathered arrow was in front of the young general's eyebrows with a strong force. The huge force pushed the young general's body down from the horse and fell on the snow, leaving no sound.
Just as Liu Kan shot the first arrow, he shook off the big yellow bow, picked up the red flag, dragged the flag, rushed over like a wind. Tu Tu and others followed him, running and shooting arrows. After shooting three arrows in a row at a distance of 100 steps, he shook off the bow and arrow and pulled out his weapons.
The lethality caused by three consecutive shots in the wind and snow is actually very small.
Only eight or nine people were shot. However, the impact of these three consecutive shots and Liu Kan's shocking arrow was immeasurable. The Qin army did not expect to be ambushed here. In addition, the young general was suddenly shot and killed, so many people did not react.
Liu Kan rolled like a wind, and the red flag was raised, carrying a cold light, which was printed in the snow dust.
He was tall and long, and his steps were flexible and fast. In front of him, a cavalry had just stepped on a sharp arrow, and Liu Kan's red flag arrived. The cold light swept across the cavalry's body silently, and Liu Kan continued to run wildly. Seeing that he was still six or seven steps away from the second cavalry, he suddenly stepped into the air and hit the sky gate with a move, knocking the horse and the cavalry to the ground.
He landed on the ground with his feet, grabbed the reins of the horse, and turned over the horse.
At this time, the first cavalry's mount was suddenly different from his head. A bunch of blood spurted out of the war horse's cavity, and the war horse fell to the ground. The cavalry on the horse was cut off from his waist and hips. He fell on the snow and his cavalry couldn't help but scream, and then he lost his breath. At this time, Liu Kan had already jumped on the war horse, dancing with both hands, and dripping with the snow dust.
In addition to the young general he shot and killed before, four cavalrymen fell in a pool of blood in the blink of an eye.
The Mausou led his men to rush over. Wherever the big shield and copper axe passed, the Qin army's bones and tendons broke, and screamed endlessly.
Fifty Qin troops were killed in an instant and frightened. Two cavalrymen fled first, but Liu Kan did not chase them. They rode their horses to the prison cart, raised the flag and fell, and heard the red flag slashing the prison cart, and Meng Ji jumped out first.
A lazy donkey rolled on the ground and took advantage of the situation to pick up a long scepter.
"June, save my brother and brother Li Cheng quickly!"
This guy was a powerful general with a very good martial arts skills. He was caught by the envoy sent by Wang Li in the military camp unexpectedly, and he felt a sense of anger in his stomach. In addition, hearing the bad news from his father made Meng Ji feel sad and angry. He was noisy along the way, but the murderous intent in his heart became stronger and stronger. Now that he was out of the cage, if he couldn't kill him hard, he would be afraid that he would explode. The long slash and slash were changing in a variety of ways. Tu Tu automatically approached Meng Ji, and the two of them killed the Qin army who were escorted to flee in a panic.
A sudden battle soon came to an end.
The Qin army escorted was killed by more than twenty people, and Yuzhe had no intention of fighting again, and they scattered. Mengke and Li Cheng also gained freedom at this time. They had no time to thank him, so they rushed up and grabbed Liu Kan, who had just dismounted. Mengke said tremblingly: "Mr., my father..."
"The general died and his place, the second son was mourning!"
Monk opened his mouth as if he wanted to speak. But before this was said, blood gushed out and almost collapsed to the ground.
Since learning about his father's death, Monk has been very depressed. He is not like his brother, and he can vent his sorrow through noise.
In my heart, I was reluctant to believe it.
Now that Liu Kan has confirmed in person, the breath in his heart can no longer be suppressed, and the mouth of blood spurts out makes me feel much more relaxed.
"If you don't take revenge, you will not be a human being!"
Monk picked up a sharp arrow and broke it hard.
Meng Ji held a long sword in one hand and an iron sword in the other hand, walking around the snow, and used an iron sword to chop dead bodies from time to time. It seemed to be checking whether there were people who pretended to die, but in fact, he was using another method to vent his grief and anger in his heart and determination to take revenge.
Li Cheng said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Lord, the eldest son..."
Liu Kan briefly told what happened in Jiuyuan and finally said softly: "The eldest son was seriously injured by Wang Li, and it is very dangerous now.
I was going to go to Yangcaogou to catch a doctor, but I didn’t expect to meet you.”
Liu Kan did not ask about the process of the Meng brothers being arrested. In fact, there was no need to ask about the process. Liu Kan could guess a rough idea.
"Yangcaogou?"
Monk tilted his head and thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I have passed by that place, and there are indeed almost people. But I don't remember that there is a doctor there. I remember that my elder brother and I stayed there for a night, and the locals said that we would have to walk dozens of miles to find a doctor."
"ah?"
Liu Kan couldn't help but take a breath.
No doctor...
Li Cheng said: "I have also visited Yangcaogou, and there are indeed no doctors. If you want to find a doctor, you will be afraid that you will go to Xiao Huaixiang.
However, there is a barracks there, with about two people stationed there. It is probably unlikely that they would rob people in Xiao Huaiyuan.
Walk west from here, and it takes two days to walk normally. There is a place called Wuhe Town. I vaguely remember that there is a doctor there, who is very skilled in medical skills. It is said that he was a prisoner who was moved from Jibei County... To the south of Wuhe Town, there is Daqing Mountain, and the river can be seen in one day to the west. Moreover, there are no barracks nearby. If we could get faster, we might have arrived at Wuhe early."
After all, people who often follow Fusu to inspect northern Xinjiang, and their familiarity with northern Xinjiang is far beyond that of the Meng brothers.
Liu Kan thought about it and seemed that Li Cheng’s idea was more appropriate, so he nodded in agreement.
This time, two more Loufan cavalrymen died... but fortunately, they saved Mengjimengk and Li Cheng, which was a small gain. Liu Kan and others hurriedly dug two pits in the dense forest and buried the bodies of the Loufan cavalrymen. Another slaughtered and collected several war horses. Everyone got on the horses and whipped them away. The snow became heavier and heavier, and quickly covered up the mess on the small road...
The happiest thing about the arrival of the Meng brothers and Li Cheng is Yingguo.
Ha Wuliang is a sharp man, and Liu Xin is also dull and stupid, so it is difficult to share his worries about Yingguo. The Meng brothers are different from Li Cheng.
Relatively speaking, Ying Guo’s trust in the Meng brothers and Li Cheng far exceeds that in Liu Kan.
Even though Liu Kan had protected her all the bumpy road, in Yingguo's heart, the Meng brothers were the most acquainted.
The reason is very simple. The origin of the Meng brothers is easier to be accepted by Yingguo. At this point, Liu Kan, who lives in the Sihong area, is absolutely incomparable. Therefore, the group of people has changed again. Li Cheng drove and Mengjimuk was guarding the car. Tu Tu led Fusu's guards to open the way in front, while Liu Xin followed Liu Kan and led the six Loufan cavalry troops to march in the back.
Maybe it's conscious, maybe it's unconscious.
Ying Guo gradually faded Liu Kan out, no longer obeying Liu Kan's advice like he did at the beginning, and following Liu Kan's horse's leadership.
To be continued...
