Chapter 122: Arrive at Zhangye City

The closest escort soldiers to the Hu people swung their knives and killed them, but for some reason, they were instantly put down by the Hu people in three or two strokes.

After killing several escort soldiers in a row, Hu Ren became a little crazy.

"How can the descendants of Ashina be humiliated by you lowly people?"

Then he shouted at the crowd:

"Everyone, let's go to Anxi to die, staying here is also a dead end, it's better to go against the damn, maybe we can kill a piece of land of our own......"

After a period of deathly silence, the scene finally began to respond:

"Yes, it's the other way around, it's the other way around, our ancestors sacrificed their lives for the Tang Dynasty, what did we get back in the end......?

"It's the other way around, it's ...... the other way"

Hu Ren is obviously a descendant of the Turkic aristocratic Ashina family, he is holding a horizontal knife, screaming, watching more and more people who echo Jing Cong, and the more crazy his demeanor becomes.

Quietly, a cold light went straight into Hu Ren's belly.

"Ah......h

The Hu man looked at the blade of the knife that suddenly stabbed out of his abdomen in disbelief, and the light of these words flashed whitely, and wisps of blood dripped down the blade.

"This, this can't be!"

He turned his head to look, a pair of eyes turned from confusion to anger, and then tried to attack again, but the blade in his abdomen suddenly twisted, and the strength of his whole body seemed to be instantly emptied, and the whole person softened like a puddle of rotten meat, and he couldn't survive.

The Hu man surnamed Ashina couldn't die for a while, and his eyes stared unwillingly, staring at the person who had stabbed him.

Dugu Yanjing used force in his hand, twisted the knife twice before pulling it out with a pop, the blood arrow sprayed, Hu Ren's eyes finally lost their figure, and the hands that were originally grasping in the air also fell.

"Who dares to say rebellion again, this is the end!"

Hu Ren's blood splashed Dugu Yanjing's face all over his body, coupled with his distorted expression, he looked like a god who had returned from hell. He swung the knife in his hand and slashed at the nearest convict who had once supported the rebellion.

Caught off guard, the prisoner was split in half by Dugu Yanjingsheng, and his tragic situation was terrifying, making everyone on the scene silent, except for the wind that was still whistling, as if the world was lifeless.

Dugu Yanjing's intervention improved the situation, and those who tried to rebel also shrank into the crowd. However, this was enough, and the remaining dozens of escort soldiers finally reflected from their confusion, and after dealing with a few convicts who were clamoring for rebellion, the situation was completely controlled.

However, at the same time, Dugu Yanjing only felt that his body was weak and fluttering, and after shaking it a few times, he finally couldn't help but fall backwards, and at the same time, it was dark in front of him, and he lost consciousness.

When he woke up again, Dugu Yanjing's eyes were pierced by the dazzling sunlight, and he had no choice but to close his eyes, his body was endlessly moving forward, shaking, his nose was full of the fragrance of plants, and the wind blowing on his body was no longer cold and biting, but with a faint temperature, which made people very comfortable. If it weren't for the heart-wrenching pain of the wound on his back, he would have thought he was dreaming.

It was a long time before he opened his eyes and realized that he was being carried forward by two prisoners, and that there were patches of bright yellow and turquoise as far as his eyes could see. The endless rape fields, the beauty here is not as beautiful as in the world.

Soon, someone found that Dugu Yanjing had woken up, and an escort soldier who looked like a leader came over.

"Dugu Yanjing, are you awake?"

Dugu Yanjing recognized him, he was a team leader surnamed Huang, named Huang Xuan, who treated the prisoners very ruthlessly, and those who did not obey were punched and kicked, but somehow treated himself so favorably?

"Uncle, what about uncle?"

He suddenly remembered that his cousin Dugu Lian straightened up regardless of the wounds on his body.

Huang Xuan sighed.

"Don't be sad, you have seen a lot of life and death on this westward journey, and you should thank God for your gift if you are still alive......"

Saying this, Dugu Yanjing already knew the fate of his cousin, he clenched his fists, tears came out of his eyes, he wanted to cry loudly, but he endured it alive.

Uncle Cousin is the only person in this world who can still feel warmth and affection, and now he is the only one left, and the boundless loneliness swept in, making him a little overwhelmed.

"Three hundred miles ahead is Zhangye, you can stay there to recuperate, and when the injury is completely healed, it's not too late to go to Anxi!"

Huang Xuan's words were very polite, and without waiting for Dugu Yanjing to question it, he explained:

"Don't be surprised, you have merit in stopping yesterday's rebellion, so when you arrive at the rule of the envoy of the Hexi Jiedu, you can ask the ambassador to ask the court to be gracious to you. Please rest assured, as long as you report it, you will get permission in 90%! Even if it is not allowed, it will take at least a month or two to go back and forth, which is enough to recuperate!"

Dugu Yanjing said secretly:

"This Huang Xuan is a very intelligent person, the gentleness he showed at this time is very different from the previous impression, sure enough, the person who came out of the Shenwu Army is not ordinary, even a small team is performing so well!"

"That's it, thank you to the yellow team!"

Being able to recuperate in Zhangye without having to rush with his injuries is naturally something Dugu Yanjing can't ask for, and he has no reason to refuse at all.

After crossing the mouth of Biandu, the prisoners began to rush to Zhangye in the north, along the way it is no longer the barren image west of Qilian Mountain, the official road is planted on both sides of a large area of corn fields and flax, which is very different from the impression of Hexi with yellow sand, the Hexi in front of you is tranquil, fertile, compared to the Guanzhong that has been through several wars, it is simply a paradise in general.

Looking at the fields and the blue sky along the way, Dugu Yanjing said with a fantasy: If you can settle down here and live your life, it may be a very pleasant thing.

However, as soon as this thought came to mind, a voice immediately jumped out of my head.

"Dugu Yanjing, did Uncle Cousin die in vain? Have you forgotten the great wishes and oaths you once made......?

The questions were like a hammer of a golden stone, smashing on Dugu Yanjing's chest again and again.

"No, no, never!"

He also wants to kill the enemy in the Western Regions and make meritorious contributions, return to Chang'an with the credit and glory he earned back with his own hands, and revive the lintel of Dugu's house. The loss of consciousness and trance were only momentary, and Dugu Yanjing quickly recovered his former state of mind, and his desire to go to Anxi also recovered.

Hexi Jiedu made Wang Sili return to Chang'an by edict, and at this time, Zhou Yu, the deputy envoy of Jiedu, took charge of the power of Jiedu. Wang Sili was the general of Shangshu's left servant to shoot Ge Shuhan, and once guarded Tongguan with him, and later Ge Shuhan was killed for his crimes, and Wang Sili was recalled to Chang'an to be imprisoned. It was not until Li Heng succeeded to the throne as the Son of Heaven that Wang Sili was released from prison and was appointed as the envoy of Hexi Jiedu to control Longyou and Shuofang.

At the beginning of the fourth year of Zhide, the imperial court began to adjust the rotation system on a large scale, and Wang Sili was naturally among them. According to Wang Sili himself, he will go to Jiannan Xichuan this time to serve as the envoy of the Jiedu, and the successor to his position is the envoy of the Jiedu of Huainan Xidao.

After all, Zhangye is far away from the Central Plains, and many winds can't blow, but Zhou Yu, as the deputy envoy of Jiedu, still heard a lot of wind.

For example, at this time, the focus of the imperial court was no longer on Shi Siming in Hebei Province, but on vigorously rectifying the Jiedu envoys in various places, as if the Jiedu envoys in various places were a more threatening source than the Hebei Provincial Rebellion.

What's more, there are rumors that the reason why the imperial court rectified the real power figures of the local border army was to pave the way for Qin Jin, because Qin Jin was going to ascend the throne and become emperor at the head worthy of five years, and accept the Zen concession of Li Heng, the crippled son of heaven.

Zhou Mi has also heard of more evil rumors, but they can only be laughed at, even if they are rumors, they must at least be a little more reliable, otherwise it can only be a joke.

However, many of the measures taken by the imperial court were indeed incomprehensible to him, and if in the past, such a large-scale rotation system made it almost impossible to kill in chaos, not to mention whether it would cause chaos in which the soldiers and generals in various places did not know each other, and the slightest carelessness would provoke a rebellion. What's more, now that the world is in turmoil at the beginning of the year, the power in the hands of various places is unprecedentedly great, and if there are people with ill intentions who take the opportunity to rebel, they definitely have the corresponding strength.

When the rebels in Hebei Province were not completely wiped out, they were busy cleaning up the internal instability, and the biggest possibility was just to add chaos to chaos. But nearly three months have passed, and I have never heard of a Jiedu envoy launching a rebellion, and even Jiangnan, which was the most unstable a year ago, has been silent, without any signs of rebellion, this situation is simply too strange.

On this day, a military official came to report that a group of prisoners with a scale of 3,000 people from Chang'an had arrived in Zhangye. After learning the identities of the prisoners, he couldn't help but secretly say that among these 3,000 people, they were all people he couldn't look up to in the past, and now they are actually serving as prisoners in groups.

For the three thousand prisoners with special status, Zhou Mi's explanation was simple and affirmative.

"Good student hospitality, send away safely!"

People in the officialdom know the truth of Hedong for 30 years and Hexi for 30 years, don't look at these big families who are extremely unlucky today, but who can guarantee that none of these people will make a comeback? Even if there is no reason and position to slap them up now, at least they can't offend people plainly and make enemies for the future.

The escort team from the Shenwu Army was asking to see him, and in his capacity as the deputy envoy of Jiedu, most of the officials did not disdain to refuse to see him. But Zhou Mi is a careful and cautious person, even if he is a little ghost of the Shenwu Army, there is no need to offend.

However, after seeing Huang Xuan, Zhou Mi was even more strange, it turned out that this person was actually interceding for a prisoner of the Dugu family.

"Is it Dugu Yanjing? Why does the Yellow Team treat this person so favorably?"

Zhou Mi is not a person who breaks the casserole and asks to the end, but if he wants to take care of these prisoners with special status, he must have a reasonable reason, otherwise he would rather pretend not to know.
