In the mountains of Brazil County, Wei Yan sat on a big rock by the stream, took off his pocket and swung in the stream twice, letting the dust, dandruff and other dead and living things in the pocket float away with the stream.
I went there, took a spoonful of the stream water and drank a lot. After drinking the cool stream water, I finally relieved a little bit of the heat and breathed out a sigh of relief.
Everyone has their own pursuit. In the process of pursuit, it may be hard, it may be sad, it may be sweating and bleeding, but as long as you still have the spirit in your heart, you can persevere and climb until one day you reach the top of the mountain.
peak.
Or die on the way.
Wei Yan doesn't think he will belong to the latter. He believes that the most useless life is to waste his life doing nothing, so he wants to become a man above others and a general who can command tens of millions of people!
Before that, Wei Yan knew that he had to untie the Brazilian mess in front of him.
There are many ways to untie the tangle. Perhaps slashing with a knife is the most direct method. However, there are not only hemp but also stones in the tangle, and the knife may not be sharp. With this knife, you may be able to cut off a few strands.
It's numb, but it's also possible that the blade of the knife has collapsed.
So Wei Yan decided to use another method. He wanted to find Banzhenman. This group of people who lived in slash-and-burn farming in central Sichuan, although their living conditions were not good and they had no culture, they were indeed related to the Han people in the Central Plains.
A group of people who are relatively closely connected.
Wei Yan drank a gulp of water, and then took some dry food and started to bite it. Most of the guards around him also found a place to sit down, eating and replenishing their energy, just like Wei Yan.
In these undeveloped mountainous areas in central Sichuan, there are no ready-made roads. At the same time, another problem is that it is easy to get lost. Fortunately, when Wei Yan set out, he found Huang Quan, who was familiar with the people, and learned a safer way.
The only way to go is to follow the stream in front of you and go upstream, and you will find a village in the mountains.
If we can pass through the first mountain fortress and let the people lead us, the next road will naturally not be a problem. When Huang Quan went to find the people, he also took this route.
Perhaps this road is the shortcut to unraveling the mess in Brazil.
Some people persuaded Wei Yan, saying that it was too risky for him to go deep alone. If someone turned against him, Wei Yan and others might not have a chance to escape from the mountain alive. However, Wei Yan knew very well that this risk was worth him to try.
People are also human beings. Since they are human beings, they have desires and needs!
As long as he can see King Jinren, Wei Yan will naturally have a way to find King Jinren's desire and find a way to break through, but before...
Wei Yan poured out the water in his pocket and put it on his head: "Send the order! Let's set off!"
Climbing silently along the stream in the mountains, the sword cuts off not the enemy's head, but more of the rattan and thatch sticking out randomly from the side, and the spear does not stab the enemy's body, but more of it.
Beating and sweeping the grass to drive away insects and snakes.
Although the sun is high in the sky, there are many shades of trees in the mountains, so it is not very hot, but it is very stuffy. Not long after Wei Yan and others left, they were covered in stinky sweat, and the new sweat re-infiltrated the previously dry skin.
Some Gebu robes had salt-stained lines showing through.
Walking and walking, suddenly a Wei Yan soldier in front shouted excitedly: "General! Look!"
Wei Yan walked forward and saw a simple cloth banner on a rock by the stream.
The cloth flag was tied up among a pile of rocks. It was obvious that someone had deliberately piled it on the rocks. The flagpole with the cloth flag attached was a tree branch that had not even had its bark removed, and among the yellow and black cloth flags
There are several lines painted on it.
Wei Yan stopped the soldiers from pulling out the cloth banners, then raised his head, looked around, and shouted loudly: "This is a general under the command of General Han Zhengxi! Wei Yan and Wei Wenzhang! Come to see the king of Jinren!"
The surrounding fields were quiet, with only Wei Yan's voice echoing in the valley.
The soldiers also turned their heads and looked around.
"General..." a soldier said, "Is there no one there?"
"A certain general of the Han Dynasty's General Conquering the West! Wei Yan, Chief Wen of Wei! Come and ask for an audience with the king!" Wei Yan ignored the soldier and shouted again. Wei Yan was full of energy and blood, and as he shouted with all his strength, he could only hear the echo in the valley.
It buzzed and rolled away like muffled thunder.
After a while, the forest and shrubs on one side suddenly parted, and a few people came out, looked at Wei Yan and others up and down, and then said in extremely stiff Chinese: "Follow!"
In fact, Wei Yan led two soldiers who knew the language of the Chi people, but Wei Yan did not show it at this time. He still pretended that he could only understand Chinese, and then followed the Chi people who led the way into the bushes in the woods nearby.
After passing through this forest, my eyes suddenly became bright and cheerful!
This is a rare flat land in the mountains, surrounded by mountains on three sides. It is a piece of land that is high in the north and low in the south. The Ti people have built villages, houses, and cultivated land in it. Halfway up the mountain in the north
, there are some colorfully decorated houses, which must be where the village leaders live.
"Wait...wait..." As if he suddenly forgot how to say the Chinese words, Jiren gestured and asked Wei Yan and others to wait outside the cottage, and then he entered the gate of the cottage first.
"General..." The soldier who understood the language of the Jin people came closer to Wei Yan and whispered, "On the way, the Jin people said why there are Han people coming again..."
Wei Yan's eyes suddenly widened and his heart sank.
Almost instantly, Wei Yan realized that they were now standing on the edge of danger!
Wei Yan can be very sure that there are no other people on the Zhengxi side except his own group, so the so-called "other Han people" must be enemies rather than friends!
Because Wei Yan did not want to fight with the people, and the roads in the mountains were difficult to travel, he did not bring many soldiers, only thirty or forty people. However, at a glance, there were at least
There were seven or eight hundred people. What was even worse was that Wei Yan had no idea who the "Hans" who came before him were and how many they brought with them. What would happen if a conflict really broke out?
This feeling of uneasiness arrived after I returned.
The man who led the way had a bad look on his face and said that their leader did not want to see Wei Yan, and made gestures to ask Wei Yan to go back...
"General..."
The soldiers around Wei Yan were a little confused and looked at Wei Yan at a loss.
Wei Yan relaxed instead and said with a smile: "Okay, if you don't see me, you'll see me... But it's getting dark soon, so we can't let us smear it and rush on our way, right? Otherwise, we can borrow a place to camp outside the mountain village until dawn tomorrow
How about leaving after that?”
Zhiren also raised his head and looked at the sky, and felt that what Wei Yan said was indeed reasonable, so he thought about it, went to ask their leader for instructions, and then took Wei Yan to a flat land outside the stronghold, which seemed to belong to Zhiren and the others.
He was given a drying place, or some kind of gathering place, and then he gave me two pots and some coarse grains, and ignored him.
Wei Yan seemed to be unaware that danger was around him. He happily directed his soldiers to pick up dry branches and vegetation in the surrounding area. Sometimes he would wander around and be scolded by others if he made a mistake. It seemed that he was just busy working late.
Just something.
Someone came before Wei Yan and the others, which inevitably made Wei Yan a little surprised and nervous. However, after the initial nervousness, Wei Yan gradually calmed down, because in Wei Yan's heart, there was never the word "give up"!
Since you don't give up, then think of a way. The only way is to be like Ban Chao and eliminate your competitors directly on the battlefield, and then naturally there will be no objections.
If you can put your own life and death aside first, then many problems will no longer be problems.
The three of them had dinner casually, and lit several bonfires for keeping warm at night and fumigating mosquitoes. Wei Yan took the lead in finding a place to lie down in his clothes, snoring beautifully.
After nightfall, the mountains gradually became cooler.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the trees all turned into a paradise for insects and beasts, with squeaking and squeaking sounds coming one after another.
Wei Yan sat up slowly, turned around and looked around, and then slowly woke up the surrounding soldiers...
During the day, while taking the opportunity to collect firewood, Wei Yan had basically inspected the village. The village was not big to begin with. To the north was where the commander and other high-level villagers lived, and to the south was the village.
door, then naturally only the east and west sides can be used as a place for guests to stay.
While Wei Yan was walking around, he saw several Han people with unkind expressions at the windows of the houses in the east cottage...
Therefore, the focus of the attack can be easily determined.
Wei Yan pointed at the wall of the village in the moonlight, and then he and several soldiers quickly disappeared under the mottled shadow of the moonlight.
Under General Zhengxi, there are many strange tools, such as the zip rope used to climb walls. There are several versions. The one Wei Yan brought is foldable. Although the strength is not better than the integrated one, it is more convenient.
and concealment.
Several flying ropes were thrown out and stuck diagonally on the wall of the Zhong people's village. Taking advantage of a group of Zhong people patrolling just past, Wei Yan and more than a dozen soldiers quickly climbed along the flying ropes.
then disappeared into the shadow of the village wall.
The silent night was quickly broken by continuous screams. The people woke up from their sleep in panic, and then discovered that the accident was actually a guest house inhabited by Han people!
In the chaotic light and shadow, Wei Yan walked out with a bloody sword. As he expected, the number of Han people in the village was also not large. There were only about twenty people in four rooms.
Under the calculated and unintentional surprise attack, Wei Yan had the upper hand. Many people were killed by Wei Yan's soldiers before they even got their swords and guns. In the later stage, the actual losses in fighting were not much.
The people seemed to have woken up and shouted angrily in the language. Some even took out knives and guns and surrounded Wei Yan and others in the corridor of the guest room.
"Where is the king of the Han people!" Wei Yan raised the head of the Han man who was obviously the consul and shouted loudly, "Can we talk now?"
The bloody head, the livid and twisted face, coupled with the stench of blood stained on Wei Yan's body, and the cold light of the sword flashing under the light of the torch, made the figure behind Wei Yan seem to be getting bigger and more ferocious.
It was so scary that even the clamoring people around them couldn't help but gradually silenced their voices and looked at each other in shock.
"Is this how General Zhengxi handles things?" A voice rang out from the crowd, and then everyone moved to the sides to make way. A man with a human head wearing a tiger skin around his waist appeared and stared at Wei Yan.
He said, "If you don't open the door, you'll come and kill me?!"
"Hahaha!" Wei Yan laughed and said with an unflinching edge, "My lord, General Zhengxi, also has a saying. It is straightforward and simple, and I am sure the King of Renren will understand... When friends come, we have food and wine, but when enemies come, we have food and wine."
There are swords and guns! I don’t know whether the king of the people wants to choose wine and meat, or swords and guns!”
The King of Jinren's eyes wandered around Wei Yan's face for a few times, and then fell on the head of the person in Wei Yan's hand. After a moment of silence, he said: "So, does Zhengxi think that we Jinren are friends or enemies?"
Wei Yan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and his smile became brighter and brighter. However, the smile stained with blood made people feel a little chilled: "This was not decided by my lord, General Zhengxi, but by King Jinren.
……Is not it?"
The Clan King pondered for a moment, and finally showed a smile.
The person who died is already dead. Since he died in the Ji Ren's village, it is natural that the Ji Ren can't escape the relationship. Putting aside the question of whether the Ji Ren's explanation will be believed, even if Wei Yan and others are captured now,
You can't resurrect the dead by twisting them away or killing them. Such a responsibility can be big or small. Just like what Wei Yan said, it just depends on how you choose.
Since the dead people have lost their value, then as the leader of the people, it is natural to consider ways to obtain more benefits, and Wei Yan's side has also shown super combat power. If it had been before
Wei Yan chose not to kill these Han people, but to reach the north...
Therefore, the King of Jin seemed to have completely forgotten the dead Han people. Since everyone in the village had already woken up, there was no need to go back to their cages to sleep, so he ordered people to light bonfires in the village, and ordered
Rentou slaughtered several chickens and two sheep, and then entertained Wei Yan and his party.
Although Wei Yan arrived at the stronghold yesterday evening, the king of Jinren did not really treat Wei Yan as a guest. But now the situation is different, so he naturally has to make up for the missing etiquette.
Wei Yan and the king of the people sat together at the top, watching the people at the campfire busy, singing and dancing. The tangled knot in his heart finally felt a lot more relaxed. Perhaps this time the deadlock in the entire Brazil County could be solved.
The situation will never get better, starting from this moment...
