Dawn in Xianshan Mountain Chapter 40: To the border, loved by soldiers and civilians
In Niyang Town, the matter has been settled.
But the matter between the Su, Zhou and Tan families was not over yet. Although Su Mu intervened in the matter initially because of Tan Rusu's move, he also told Tan Rusu that he would no longer care about it.
But leaving without any beginning or end was definitely not what Su Mu wanted.
Since he was lucky enough to come to this mysterious world, and since he was lucky enough to embark on the road to immortality, Su Mu didn't want to give up halfway through the things he encountered during his practice, otherwise he wouldn't be in a smooth mood when he thought about it in the future, so how could he talk about it?
What about Shang Xiaoyao Changsheng?
then.
After completing the procedures at the City God, Su Qian and others were sent to the underworld.
In the gloomy weather the next day, Su Mu took Yunqi to Langju Pass in the north, where Tan Zheng was stationed.
One month later.
One person, one lemur and one monkey finally arrived at this border fortress.
Wolf lives in Guanzhong, with only a thousand households living there. Even though the autumn harvest season is about to begin, Guan City still seems quite deserted.
However, when Su Mu stepped onto the majestic Langju Pass, he looked towards the extreme north. Although it was a wilderness, it was vast and had a broad field of vision. Su Mu, who was a southerner both in his previous life and now.
The scene felt quite spectacular.
However, this trip to Sumu ended up being purely about admiring the scenery.
turn out to be.
Not long ago, Tan Zheng was promoted to the post of governor of Dongliao County due to his merit, and he left for the post about a month ago.
About half a month ago, Tan Zheng even sent someone to pick up his father at Langju Pass, which meant that Tan Zheng's government affairs in Dongliao City were progressing smoothly.
Su Mu was also slightly surprised after hearing this. Firstly, he was surprised that Tan Zheng's father was still alive, and secondly, he was surprised that Tan Zheng had been promoted so high.
After leaving the city gate, Yun Qi asked, "Sir, you heard that Tan Zheng went to Dongliao City earlier, and you seemed a little worried?"
Yunqi is a native of Qingqiu, so naturally he doesn't understand the border defense lines of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Su Mu then explained: "On the northern border defense line of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there are nine passes near the town. Langju Pass is one of the nine passes. It guards the middle section of the northern border defense. However, although it is called nine passes in name, it is actually nine passes.
There is a city in Guanzhong."
Yunqi had heard of the Nine Passes in the Northern Territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
But there are far more than nine passes in the Northern Territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so she doesn’t know exactly which pass it is.
However, what Su Mu said was very clear. Yunqi looked at it carefully and said, "Sir, what you mean is that Dongliao City is one of the nine passes?"
She was surprised. She didn't know why it was listed as one of the nine passes even though it was a city.
"That's right,"
Of course, these are not military secrets. Anyone who is even remotely interested will know that it has nothing to do with Su Mu telling Yun Qi.
"Not only is it an important town in the Nine Passes, but it is also the head of the Nine Passes. The imperial court transferred Tan Zheng to the post of Governor of Eastern Liao, which means that he will be in charge of all the military affairs in Eastern Liao. He can already be called a border general who truly guards the border."
Yun Qi was smart and quickly understood what Su Mu was worried about, "Sir, are you worried that the imperial court will try to protect Tan Zheng?"
"It's not impossible,"
Su Mu said: "When I was talking with the general guarding the pass at Lang Ju Pass, you must have been able to tell that the general was very optimistic about Tan Zheng. Since Tan Zheng can sit in such a high position, how can there be no one in the court?
"
"No wonder,"
Monk Hai suddenly came out, looking like an old man who has seen through the warmth and coldness of the world, "I don't care that the general was not worried at all after hearing about Tan Zheng. Maybe they already knew about it and were preparing a backup plan."
.”
Hearing this, Yun Qi also became worried, "Sir, what should we do if this is really the case?"
Su Mu was silent. It didn't seem like he had any conflict with anyone in the court.
But since he has already been involved in this matter, if he doesn't understand it, he can't leave peacefully.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "Let's check the situation when we get to Liaodong City."
...
A few days later.
Su Mu and his party, facing the autumn wind, finally set foot in the Dongliao region.
This is the far east of the Northern Territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty. To the south is the blue sea. Going further east or north are the territories belonging to foreign races.
What's more important is that the back of Dongliao City is Tianhaiguan, which guards the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
This shows how important the city of Dongliao was to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
But now, the newly appointed governor of Dongliao is actually involved in a major murder case involving more than a hundred people. The matter will definitely be reported to His Majesty the Emperor. No one knows how His Majesty the Emperor will decide.
When Su Mu approached the area less than a hundred miles away from Dongliao City, he found that there were no crops in the fields.
"Sir, it seems that the crops in all the fields have been harvested,"
Yun Qi looked at the yellowing woods in the distance, still puzzled, and said: "But even though it is already August and it is the autumn harvest season, not everything is mature, so why does it give people a feeling of desolation?"
?”
"I'm afraid something big is going to happen in Dongliao City,"
This is obviously a way to strengthen the wall and clear the country. In addition, now that the crops are ripe, there is a high possibility that those guys from the north will go south to plunder.
"Let's go to Dongliao City quickly!"
Su Mu took Yunqi with him and stood up with his sword.
On the way, among the rural villages outside the city, the common people could no longer be seen. They must have moved into Liaodong City, which strengthened Su Mu's suspicion.
Not long after, Su Mu saw a group of sergeants escorting many people about thirty or forty miles outside the city.
So I went down to ask.
The sergeant escorting the people saw a man and a woman suddenly appear behind them. The man was obviously a weak scholar, and the woman also looked extremely weak.
I guessed that the other party was a commoner from further away, but I didn't blame the other party for missing the allotted time.
"You two, hurry up and join the team. Is there no one behind you?"
Upon hearing the sergeant's words, Su Mu and Yun Qi were stunned one after another.
However, Su Mu reacted quickly and saluted: "Master Jun misunderstood. We brother and sister came to Dongliao to find relatives, but we saw everyone running towards the city. What on earth happened?"
Hear this.
However, the sergeant did not get angry, and he had no intention of driving them out of the team. He said: "You two brothers and sisters have come at the wrong time. The group of horned devil cubs in the north are leading a large army south. There is going to be a big war soon. Hurry up.
Join the team, go to the city and slowly look for your relatives."
The foreign tribe in the north is actually called the Tiantong tribe.
The Tiantong tribe believes that they are gifted with divinity and can communicate with heaven and earth, hence the name of the tribe.
However, the vast majority of humans do not recognize their name.
Because the Tiantong tribe supported the Demon Sect against the Great Zhou Dynasty, and because they had horns on their foreheads, the humans named them the Horned Demon Clan.
Therefore, among the soldiers and civilians, they were called the Horned Demon Cub.
In fact, this is one of the reasons why the human race and the Tiantong tribe have been fighting for tens of thousands of years. The human race believes that they are the primates of all things, while the Tiantong tribe believes that they are the real primates of all things.
"Are we really going to start a fight?"
Yun Qi felt quite uneasy. She had never expected that she would see the Horned Demon Clan's army fighting with the Human Clan's army.
The north of the ancient Qingqiu Kingdom was also the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and their country was within the arms of the Great Zhou territory.
Precisely because of their geographical location, Qingqiu and Dazhou have a very good relationship. Every year, Qingqiu selects junior high school warriors to go to Dazhou to guard the surrounding areas. However, it is difficult for little foxes like Yunqi to see the Horned Demons.
The sergeant didn't know that she was sighing, but he thought she was scared. He smiled loudly and comforted: "Girl, there is no need to worry. Our new governor of Dongliao City has made great achievements in the battle outside Langju Pass, which made those horned devil cubs
The general was frightened by the news."
"This group of horned devil brats are blind this time. They must not know that General Tan has been transferred to Dongliao, so they want to come to the east to plunder. Just wait and see how our general can defeat the enemy."
You can see it and you can hear it.
The sergeant in front of him had a high degree of trust and admiration for Tan Zheng, both in his expression and in his words.
Just at this moment.
An elderly man also looked back and said: "The two little kids must have never heard of General Tan's reputation. In fact, we all moved here from Langju Pass. Following General Tan, we feel at ease."
When Su Mu heard this, he was extremely horrified.
From Langju Pass to Dongliao City, it is more than a thousand miles away. "Old man, you mean, why are you moving from Langju Pass, which is thousands of miles away, to Dongliao City?"
"You don't understand, let me tell you,"
The old man said: "When we were in Langju Pass, we were tormented by the horned devil cubs from the north every now and then. Sometimes our crops were destroyed, but since General Tan arrived at Langju Pass, we have never had any crops in the pass.
I have seen those horned devil cubs. If it were you, would you follow General Tan?"
"Yes, you two, brother and sister, can rest assured,"
Another young man spoke in a firm voice, "With General Tan here, your relatives will definitely be fine, and of course you will be fine too. Maybe you can see General Tan defeat the aliens and use their horns to build the Jingguan."
.”
God, what a trust.
In Su Mu's previous life, he had only heard of Liu Bei leading his people across the river. Now these people are not afraid of the dangers of a thousand-mile journey and follow Tan Zheng. What a scene it is?
"Hey, with General Tan here, I'm really not afraid. I just want to stay safe by following him."
"Yes, I really hope there are more people like General Tan!"
"Well, in the future I want to become a person like General Tan."
"Tch, just you?"
"What do you despise? I heard that General Tan used to be a nobody. Before he joined the army, he started sharpening his sword after nightfall. After dark, he went out to kill foreigners. This is how General Tan got the appreciation of General Lang Juguan."
Su Mu and Yun Qi walked behind the team.
But there was always someone beside them who was very interested in telling them the story of Tan Zheng's victory over the enemy.
Su Mu believed that the words of these low-level people were absolutely true.
One person, one lemur and one monkey felt increasingly complicated towards the general who had originally planned to massacre more than a hundred members of the Su family.
