The border city always feels like it's always slaughtering. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Even the Jiannan Pass in the southwest of the Han Dynasty is the same, if there must be any difference, that is, in addition to the ubiquitous atmosphere of Xiao Se and slaughter, there is more sadness that seems to be shrouded forever and cannot be dissolved!

The twenty-seven countries of the Western Regions have never stopped knocking on the gates, and how many soldiers have been waiting for the day, shrouded in horse leather, and sprinkled blood on the dark red city wall.

Now Jiannan is losing again!

Li Xuanxin stood on the city tower, the orange sunset stained his face, his face was a little tired and faintly sad, as if he felt powerless about the darkness and confusion ahead.

The wind is still howling, the spring cold and the bleak wind, I don't know how many children will be long?

It seems that there is another battle not long ago, Gumo, Wusun, Yueshi, and Ronglu have all 180,000 elites, 800 cultivators, and they will be in Jiannan!

Jiannan Pass will be guarded in Mingchun, leading 50,000 Han troops, fierce battle for March, reinforcements do not arrive.

In another month, there was only one battalion of less than 300 men left in the Han army, and less than 100,000 of the 180,000 elites of the four kingdoms remained.

When the city was broken, Yu Mingchun led the sky and thunder to the city, and the wind and frost swords flew in the air, punishing the eight hundred cultivators of the four countries, and it was useless to break the enemy.

The enemy was frightened and finally retreated. Yu Mingchun died in battle!

In the spring of the seventeenth year of Shenwu of the Han Dynasty, this protracted fierce battle finally came to an end, which was the largest battle experienced by the Han Dynasty in the seventeen years since Emperor Shenwu ascended the throne.

The sound of the carriage on the official road interrupted Li Xuanxin's thoughts, and looking at the carriage near the city gate, Li Xuanxin calmed his mind and covered the vicissitudes of life that did not match his age in the corners of his eyes.

He knew that from this moment on, fate would push him forward. He will not be able to resist, all he can do is keep walking, or stop, stop, which means never going again.

This is a carriage without any decoration, black top, black canopy, black horse, black wheel, and even the groom driving is an old man who looks as black as charcoal. Walking on the official road, under the background of the sunset with only a trace of afterglow left in the distance, it is like a ball of ink that cannot be dissolved, slowly flowing from the underworld to the world.

However, in the Han Dynasty, there were no high-ranking officials and magnates who had the courage to underestimate such an inconspicuous-looking carriage. Just because on the strings of the carriage, two very small words were engraved with gilt - "Privy".

This is a carriage from the Privy Council, and the Privy Council's walkers outside are called Privy Envoys, and the horror of the Privy Envoys lies not only in their incomparable strength, but also in the rights granted to them by Emperor Shenwu.

Hunting on behalf of the sky, first cut and then play!

The territory of the Han Dynasty is vast, nine provinces and nineteen states, since Emperor Shenwu ascended the throne for 17 years, twenty-four feudal marquis, by the privy envoy first beheaded a full fifteen, including three imperial marquis, and a brother of Emperor Shenwu. As for those high-ranking families, dignitaries and dignitaries have killed countless people.

Sonor! Sonor!

Crossed halberds lay in front of the carriage, and behind the two brightly armored soldiers, the repulsive horses flashed like entrenched tigers, staring at all attempted intruders.

Li Xuanxin came to the carriage, put his right hand across his chest, and bowed slightly. Full of anger, he said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Li Xuanxin, the commander of the Shanzi Battalion in Nanguan, Xiajian, please show the customs clearance document and fish talisman." ”

The old man who was driving frowned slightly, and there was a hint of unhappiness on his face, but he still took out a square jade jue from his arms and threw it at Li Xuanxin.

Li Xuanxin took the jade jue, only to see that it was written with the words 'Privy Envoy, access to Jiannanguan', and the inscription was 'Duhu Yan of the Western Regions'.

Li Xuanxin bowed again, returned the jade jue to Lao Suo, and did not slack off because of the identity of the other party, and said in a calm voice: "Please show the fish talisman." ”

The old man who was driving turned purple in an instant, stared at Li Xuanxin with cold eyes, and his voice seemed to have added nine cold ice to this gale wind, which made people feel chills from the bottom of their hearts.

"Presumptuous, in the car is the sixth privy envoy of the Privy Council, Lord Fang, who is your immediate boss, the capital of the Western Regions, and the newly promoted Jing'an Hou Yan came back to life, and he doesn't dare to ask for such a thing, what kind of goods are you? Do you think that if I can kill the prince of the Privy Council, you can't kill a little lieutenant? ”

Li Xuanxin's body trembled a little, not scared, but really felt the cold like being in an ice cellar, while Lao Suo was speaking, an extreme chill shrouded Li Xuanxin's body, so that his next words seemed to tremble a little: "Han Taizu has an order, Jiannan Pass is the southwest gateway of the Han Dynasty, and those who enter Jiannan Pass must show the customs clearance documents and fish talismans, and those who violate the order will be killed!" ”

Speaking of the word 'kill', Li Xuanxin stretched out his hand and quickly brushed away the frost that had condensed into substance on his eyebrows, and instantly pulled out his waist knife, and the flickering cold light reflected his eyes extremely cold.

Kill! Kill! Kill!

Behind him, the soldiers on the city wall shouted in unison, and hundreds of pairs of eyes filled with undisguised killing intent converged with the undissipated murderous atmosphere of Jiannan Pass, and looked straight at them. The whimpering wind, like the heroic souls of countless soldiers who died in battle, shouted in unison, resounding through the wilderness!

The old man who drove the car suddenly turned from purple to pale, with a dazed and a little frightened in his eyes, as if he couldn't believe that hundreds of border troops could be so powerful!

"Please show me the fish charm!"

Li Xuanxin said for the third time, his voice was low and a little hoarse, the tip of the knife pointed directly at the center of Lao Suo's eyebrows, there were a few bloodshots in his eyes, his body was like a fish out of the water constantly swinging, although the pressure was greater, the hand holding the knife did not tremble in the slightest.

After a short silence, the swing of Li Xuanxin's body became more obvious, obviously it was the cold season of spring, and the sweat all over his body still soaked his clothes and armor, and shallow puddles accumulated on the ground.

The bloodshot in his eyes gradually covered the eyeballs, and Li Xuanxin at this time was reflected with an indescribable ferocity, his wrist moved slightly, and a ray of moonlight that just rose flickered from the tip of the knife to the thick back of the knife, and the fierce light in Li Xuanxin's eyes was so fierce that people had no doubt that he would be desperate for everything in the next moment!

"Kang Boxiu wants to be presumptuous, they are all soldiers who have made great achievements for my Han Dynasty, especially Li Duwei killed more than 100 enemies in the previous city defense battle, and even organized a counterattack at the last moment to kill the prince of the Yue Clan in one fell swoop. According to the laws of the imperial court, Li Duwei is now qualified to participate in the assessment of the Privy Council and Dali Temple, and we will be colleagues in the future. ”

A gentle voice sounded from the carriage, moisturizing things silently, quietly dissolving the tense atmosphere.

At the same time, the curtain of the carriage slowly opened a corner, and a jade talisman painted with strange patterns was suspended in the air, revealing a faint fluorescence.

The jade talisman shook slowly, and a strange image appeared in the air, in the vast blue sea, a strange herring with wings on its back showed its sharp teeth, roared and rushed to the sky, rolling up a monstrous wave.

The image came to an abrupt end, the jade talisman vanished, and the black curtain hung down again.

Li Xuanxin withdrew his waist knife, bowed down and retreated to the side of the road, and signaled to let go and refuse the passage of horses.

The city gate slowly opened, and the black carriage was still walking unhurriedly, and before it entered the city gate, the gentle voice sounded in the carriage again: "Please Li Duwei go all the way with this seat, this seat is ordered by the saint to be the general of Jiannanguan, and temporarily lead the military affairs of Jiannanguan." There are many unknowns about the arrangement of bereavement and rewards, and I want to consult the captain. ”

Li Xuanxin agreed, paced to the carriage and followed.

"Killing hundreds of thousands of enemies with 50,000 heroes is the biggest battle since Your Majesty ascended the throne, and it is also the strongest result. Who does Captain Li think should be the greatest for this battle? ”

"I thought that if the reinforcements arrived early, there might be more results, and 50,000 comrades would be spared." Li Xuanxin's voice was a little sad, and the sadness on his face couldn't be concealed.

"I'm asking you who has the most credit in this battle, not what you think about this battle." The voice from the carriage was quite flat, but in that blandness, Li Xuanxin felt a little cold again.

Without waiting for Li Xuanxin to answer, a voice came from the carriage again: "You don't stand high enough, so you don't see enough things, but just from the clues you know, you should know that Yu Mingchun should die." My Great Han has never forcibly intervened in the fate of his subordinates, and if he had the ability, he would have obtained the secret treasure of 'Yu Jiling' alone, and no one would say a word, but he should not bring trouble to my Han people. ”

"As for the 50,000 soldiers, I just want to say two words, the first is that Yu Mingchun has affected them; The second is that they died well and achieved the greatest results at the lowest cost. Do you understand when I say that? ”

The voice in the carriage was still flat, but Li Xuanxin heard the indifference hidden in the blandness.

"I understand that in this battle, my Han is bound to use troops against the countries of the Western Regions, and the battle to defend the city can naturally achieve more results than the positional war, but..."

It's just that these 50,000 soldiers are innocent? 50,000 died in battle, in the eyes of those big people, it is just a number, how many joys and sorrows can be said with a sentence of 'men should die in the border field, and the horse leather shroud is still buried'?

"No, it's just fate. If one day you and I die in battle, it will be your fate and mine. You're a smart person, and if you shouldn't say something, don't say it again. ”

The road in Jiannan City is horizontal and vertical, simple and rough, since that battle, the guard general Ming Chun led the thunder to destroy the enemy, Jiannan City has blown an endless wind, continuous for several months, without a moment's stop. It seems that he is constantly pouring out the tragedy of that battle, and Jiannan City is also becoming more and more solemn and sad in this wind!

"You're a smart man..."

The carriage paused, and said again: "I think you should be able to understand what I mean next, the battle of Jiannanguan, the capital of the Western Regions, Hu Yan Huisheng commanded effectively, and he should be the first merit, and he should be crowned as the Marquis of Jing; Jiannan Guanshou will be posthumously awarded the "no blame marquis" in Mingchun, Li Xuanxin, the captain of the Shanzi battalion of the Jiannan Army, fought bloodily, beheaded more than 100 enemies, beheaded the prince of the Yue Clan, beheaded the national teacher of the Moguo country, and beheaded the great supervisor of the Gumo country. ”

"The front is all the meaning of the saint, and the back is the greatest sincerity that this seat can give you, Li Duwei, I think you should understand what I want?"

Li Xuanxin froze in place, his face was a little pale, although he had expected it, he still felt deeply powerless at the moment.
