Jiameng Guanxi is a world with thousands of miles of yellow sand and dust everywhere.
Qi Qi rode on the horse and slowly headed towards Jiameng Pass.
Outside Jiameng Pass, there is almost all yellow sand, making the road difficult to travel. It is not a long journey, and it takes a day.
The accompanying general Wang Fang said impatiently:
"The boundaries here are so tight that it will be of no use to us Han if we want this place."
The soldiers nearby were clamoring and saying:
"This shabby place won't be able to grow anything, so I don't want it."
"Only oasis can grow food, this yellow sand is of no use at all."
"Only the barbarians can survive in this world. Birds are too lazy to poop here."
"Our stone rail line is better. You can enter the customs in one day and get home in two days."
Amidst the chaotic discussion, they put their hands together to build the awning and looked into the distance.
Yellow sand filled the field of vision, and the place where the sand connected with the sky looked like a golden straight line.
"Let's go quickly and reach Jiameng Pass before dark, otherwise we will have to spend the night in the desert."
Pingqi urged.
Wang Fang flicked the riding whip in his hand, and all the troops immediately fell silent and began to restrain the horses and speed up.
The march speed accelerated, and a yellow dragon immediately appeared on the desert. Yellow sand rolled all over the sky, and it instantly covered the way they came.
Wang Fang patted his horse and walked quickly for two steps. When he reached the edge of Pingqi, he asked in a hoarse voice:
"Governor Pingqi, you specially ordered my general to come here with you. Isn't it because you are interested in my bravery? What's the matter? Tell me. I'm a little bit thorn in my back when I'm always being stared at by you.
a feeling of."
Ping Qi looked at Wang Fang with a smile:
"Why, I still haven't figured out why I ordered you to be the general. To be honest, you have committed so many things. If it weren't for the fact that you are from the prince's personal guard and are highly valued by the prince, those things should be dealt with.
you."
Ping Qi's expression changed. He knew that what he had done fell into the hands of Ding Xiangwei. He couldn't help but secretly hate that these bastards were really out of people's hearts. After only a few days of benefits, they thought of betraying themselves to please them.
Got it.
Ping Qi continued:
"I know you have good intentions, and those things didn't fall into your pocket. Otherwise, I wouldn't be talking to you like this."
Wang Fang's head lowered, his expression ugly.
Along the way, Wang Fang had nothing to say. He just hurried on in a dull manner, occasionally scolding the noisy soldiers, and then headed towards Jiameng Pass.
After it got dark, everyone finally arrived at Jiameng Pass.
Wang Fang showed his badge, opened the door and let a group of people in.
Ping Qi rested all night at Jiameng Pass. Before dawn the next day, he got on the first wooden wheel cart and rushed to Wuyuan.
Sitting in the rumbling car, Qi Qi closed his eyes to rest and began to sleep.
After running around for days, Ping Qi was indeed exhausted, but the result this time was good. Joseph completely surrendered and promised to recruit more people.
Thinking like this, Ping Qi gradually fell into a deep sleep.
"This is my seat"
Ping Qi was woken up by the noisy quarrel.
When I opened my eyes, I saw that it was already dark, the lights in the car were on, the door was open, and people were coming in through the door and finding a place to sit down in the car.
Sitting on the seat next to Ping Qi, Qin followed Pingdu and smiled, pointed to the second seat on the left, and lowered his voice and said:
"The fat man was sitting there. He went out to relieve himself once. When he came back, his seat was taken. The two of them were quarreling over this matter."
He looked around the car and saw that every seat was full and there were no empty seats left.
There are more and more people who like to take the stone rail line.
With Qi Qi's sigh, the wooden wheel car started to move again, slowly moving forward along the stone track in the night, rushing to Wuyuan, which was thousands of miles away.
Ping Qi fell into a deep sleep again. Although he was not very tired while driving on the wooden wheel cart, his body was very tired.
When Pingqi opened his eyes again, it was already broad daylight.
“Arrived in Xianyang”
Pingdu explained at the side: "Commander Commander, would you like to eat something? There is some food in the car. Although the taste is average, it is better than the heat. Eating it can also relieve fatigue."
"Then go have some."
Ping Qi stretched, stood up, and followed Ping Du to the wooden wheel carriage where food was sold.
The two of them ordered two dishes, each ate a bowl of noodles, took a nap, and strolled back to their seats.
Unexpectedly, the seat was already taken, and two old farmers with dark faces and wrinkles like ravines sat in their seats.
Seeing the two people, the old farmer stood up.
"General, take a seat."
The old farmer had to give up his seat when he was holding something in his arms.
Ping Qi held the old farmer down and said with a smile: "Old man, please sit down first. I have just finished eating. I will stand for a while to eat."
"Old man, I see that your face is covered with dust. It seems that you have traveled a long way. Where did you come from and where are you going?"
The old man sat down again, with a smile on his face and said solemnly:
"I came out to do work, which is to repair this stone rail line. When the work in Qindi is finished, I will sit on this stone rail line and go back to my hometown."
Pingdu interrupted and asked:
"Old man, how many stone rail lines have you built? This thing is a good thing. You have made a great contribution to our Han country."
When the old man heard this, his face lit up with joy, and he waved his hands repeatedly:
"No, no, what contribution did my old man make? He just worked for wages. These are all the work of the prince and the Ordnance House. They have nothing to do with us. We just make a living, and we have to thank this stone rail line.
."
"That's right."
The old man next to him also agreed.
The fat middle-aged man sitting opposite asked curiously:
"Old man, you guys built this stone rail line, from south to north?"
The old man waved his hands repeatedly: "No, it's really not the case. We just built the road from Beijing to Jiamengguan. The rest of the stone rail lines were built by others. It is not my credit."
"How long have you built the stone rail line, old man?"
Pingqi sat down on the low stool Pingdu found, raised his head, and asked the old man.
The old man's face began to shine and he said happily:
"Not much, not much. What we have cultivated is only a few. According to Muramasa who led our team, it is only tens of thousands of miles away, which is far behind others."
"Ten thousand miles?"
There were exclamations all around, and discussions started in the carriage.
With tens of thousands of miles of stone rail line, this is a huge project that can scare people to death. How many pillow stones will it cost?
Ping Qi looked out the window. The wooden wheel cart was going very fast, and the pedestrians, fields, villages, and ponds beside the road were all flying backwards. In the blink of an eye, they were no longer visible.
I just slept for two nights, ate something, and then traveled thousands of miles. Only a person like the prince could create such a good thing.
In a few days, Wuyuan will be reached. At that time, he will have to take a carriage or boat to rush to Wangjiang, meet the prince, report to the prince what happened in the West, and listen to the prince's instructions on the next step of Dingxiang Guard.
Directions for walking there.
The journey from Jiameng Pass to Wangjiang in a few days was almost unimaginable in the past. When the prince attacked Qin, it took several months to reach Jiameng Pass.
On the way back to Beijing, it took a long time because of the long distance.
It took me several months to walk, but I never thought I could finish it in just a few days.
