Chapter 228: Chunwei, a request for help from outside the territory
At the end of April, the spring tail was about to go, the grass leaves turned green and deep, and a quick ride ran from the west to pass through Horse City and into Shanggu County. The man came with short golden hair, a bearded face, ragged clothes, tall and strong body, fair skin, but there were scars everywhere, which made the travelers and travelers quite curious. Someone followed the other party to run from the north gate. When the other party was stopped by the soldiers, the man and the horse were exhausted.
The war horse fell, and the weak figure fell from above. After a few rolls, several guards ran over and raised the other party. The golden-haired man was extremely weak and opened his lips slightly.
"…report…gongsun…there are…the army…coming from the west…coming…”
那几名士卒面面相觑,想不到这个不像草原外族,更不像西域人的外族竟会一口汉话,只是对方的言语太过别扭,他们也听不出到底是何意思.
"What should I do? I sent it to the inn, but I just found a place to throw it away, so that he could die for himself."
"...It's feasible. Our governor doesn't like foreign tribes, so the Shangguan will not punish us."
Someone shook his head: "This person can speak Chinese, and looks like there is an urgent matter to report. I just heard him say that Gongsun...will he have an old relationship with the governor..."
At this time, many people around the city gate stopped and looked here, blocking the road for a while. At the end of the streets in the city, a team of soldiers patrolled over. Seeing the situation here, they tightened their spears and forced them to break through the crowd. Since the last time they rebelled, they have been transferred to the sect to supervise the thief, supervising the arrests and inspections of the city.
"Take this person back first, and I will report to the Dongfang County Magistrate."
"Yes!" The soldiers behind him took away the weak foreign man, and Guan Gu suddenly felt happy: "...I heard earlier that there was a Western team of dozens of people under the command of the governor, and I guess it was it at this time..."
Then, he took the man away with his sword and warrior. Not long after, Dongfang Sheng and Li Ru saw this person. After asking about the reason, his face frowned.
"Brother Wenyou sent someone to pick up dozens of people into the city, and I went to the mansion to tell my wife... Cough cough... her student is back." Dongfang Sheng said this, asking the people below to take the man to rest, and then walked to the government office with Li Ru and got on the carriage separately.
...
At the same moment, dozens of miles above Shanggu County, Stephanie and Gerald, with the only fifty remaining people, stayed for a short time, and the rough food was bitten like iron in their mouths, and swallowed hard with clear water. She sat on a white rock, stretched out her two round and slender legs, and looked at the outline of the city that was faintly appearing in front of her from afar.
Silent and firm.
I remembered the feeling of leaving the village with my brother and struggling to go to Chang'an to find reinforcements a year ago. Now I have walked back and forth in this country and arrived in front of the man again. On the hills of the White Wolf Plain, I saw the man riding a horse and roaring with a scimitar, and it seemed like he had frozen in his sight.
It was a wolf-like man. Even though she was not afraid of killing, she felt a little trembling when she saw the other person several times.
"That Gongsun is amazing..." Gerald walked over, put the sword at his feet, and sat cross-legged. "Stephanie, my sister, after the passage, Gongsun will be angry... We have brought disaster to the East and will ignite the war here."
Next to him, the woman stood up and wiped the food residue from the corner of her mouth, looked in the direction of Shanggujun, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Brother...there is no matter how war is in the East, it is very powerful. As long as Gongsun can hold us back to our hometown, raise the banner of resistance, and build our own home like Gongsun."
The dry blonde hair was caressing in the wind. She took a deep breath, led the war horse and flipped it up, looking at the big guy who slowly got up: "What's more, his wife is my teacher, and the teacher is a very gentle woman, she shouldn't blame us."
A group of dozens of people set off with such thoughts. Soon after, they met Li Ru who was greeting them. Cai Yan, who was far away in Gongsun's mansion in the city, did not feel happy because of the so-called return of the students. The April wind blew across the garden with a slight warmth, and the bright colors were gradually opening up.
The woman coaxed her to sleep and gave it to the wet nurse beside her to hold it down to rest. She turned around and walked slowly to the pavilion, sat down, looked at the one-armed scholar opposite, frowned slightly, and stroked the strings of her fingertips, "In the ninth year of Yongyuan, Ban Dingyuan sent Shi Ganying to the Great Qin (Rome), but unfortunately he returned from the middle way. Unexpectedly, my student was chased by a Great Qin army to the Han area. It seems that Stephanie's identity is not that simple."
"Now the leader's 30,000 soldiers are conquering Yunzhong, Dingrang and other counties, and they are worried that they will run into each other. The wife also knows that these arrogant soldiers and generals under the leader's leadership are not afraid of heaven or earth. If the fight starts, the main business will be delayed."
Cai Yan's eyes frown like a warm wind, then shook his head and said lightly: "...No reason would be possible. What I am worried about is that this Qin army has used butcher knives to the Han people. After all, they must need supplies when they are traveling far away. They are speechless and easy to cause killing. If this is the way to attack Yunzhong, Zhang and Yang will definitely rush their troops to meet them. Both of them are responsible for guarding the territory, especially Zhang Yang, who is from Yunzhong County..."
"There are too many variables..." Dongfang Sheng pressed his temple: "I am just qualified and I can't imagine what's next."
Cai Yan stood up and walked outside, quietly looked up at the clouds floating in the sky. If it were possible, it would be better if there was no other place to be safe, but things were far away and there was no information. She could not predict whether there would be bad news coming back next.
"I hope my husband can come back soon."
Just behind her, she went to the yard gate, and her vision extended along the street. She felt that Stephanie and others who had returned to the world finally appeared in the sight of the people in the city and headed far away towards the mansion.
***************************************************
Spring is at the beginning of summer, and thunder sounds in the sky and clouds.
The construction of Juyong Pass was only after two months when the foundation was raised. On the stretched wooden frame, craftsmen waved stone hammers and sweated heavily. Dan Jing led a army to stand in front of Jundu Mountain for several miles, supervising the rocks mined from the foot of the mountain to carry on the shaft and transported to the pass.
In the direction beyond his sight, the flags were sweeping, Yuan Shao's wife Liu Fu was planning something in a busy manner in the camp. He stepped on the long desk with one foot, picked up the cloth and blew the handwriting, and a wretched smile appeared on his thin mustache face.
"Another sneak attack, this time I will throw stones from above and kill you thieves."
Then, the cloth and silk that recorded the embarrassing handwriting was casually handed over to the personal guards, which was to convey the order.
...
At the same time, Gongsun Zhi, who was heading south from the west of Liucheng, led the Xianbei cavalry, wolf cavalry, and nearly 10,000 cavalry crossed Yuyang and went straight to the east of the military capital Shandong.
"Transfer the news to General Shan and kill Liu Fu from front to back." He whispered.
