217 Waiting for a long time
But the city defense army in front of them was only more than ten steps away from them, and the general of the city defense army suffered setbacks tonight, and he was already angry, shouting loudly: "Stop them, don't let them go." ”
The soldiers in the front row were red-eyed and rushed at them with guns in hand.
As soon as he took two steps, suddenly there was a burst of noise on the ground in front of him, and fierce flames roared like evil beasts from hell.
The ground seemed to have been smashed by the heavy fists of ancient giants, sinking into several deep pits, and the stones flew up more than ten meters into the sky, and fell like rain, smashing people and ghosts crying wolves.
Ruan Yanluo's gaze swept over the city guards separated by the wall of fire, listened to their shouting together, looked sideways at Wei Liu, and said with a smile: "Ah Liu, let's go." ”
Wei Liu looked at Ruan Yanluo with deep eyes and nodded slightly.
"Close the gates!" Qin Chuan shouted loudly to the top.
The squeaky sound of squeaking makes people feel sore again, even if there is so much noise around, it still makes people hear it clearly.
Ruan Yanluo and Wei Liu turned their horses' heads, let the horses trot, and galloped out of the tall, impregnable gates of Tianyao City side by side.
The fire distorted the air.
But in this distorted air, Wei Liu's white clothes and Ruan Yanluo's blue skirt are still so dazzling, flying a bright banner in the flames of war.
There was no escape, no wolf bèi, one night in the year when Emperor Sheng An was fifty years old, Nanchu Proton Wei Liu and Shen Hongyan's daughter Ruan Yanluo, like a wandering rein, galloped out of the gate of Tianyao Capital side by side.
In the later records of Nan Chuzhi, this night was written by the historian, and Wei Liu's benevolence and determination became an immortal reputation.
The Southern Chu man who followed Wei Liu to leave Tianyao, after returning to Southern Chu, was named the Liuyan Army as Wei Liu's pro-army, and made great contributions on the road to becoming an emperor after Wei Liu.
This army is a legend in the history of Southern Chu, because their loyalty to Weiliu is like engraved in the bone marrow, and no one can buy and tempt them.
And the woman who walked out of this door with Wei Liu was ignored by the historian intentionally or unintentionally, without mentioning a word.
It's just that although the history books don't mention it, none of the people who experienced this night with Wei Liu will forget it.
The pale blue skirts, the passionate arms in the long night of the beacon fire, the tenacious figure that rode on the galloping horse and brought them all to the only way to live.
That was the only woman who could walk side by side with Emperor Chu Weiliu, and in his later life, there would be no one who could walk by his side like this.
After Wei Liu walked out of the city gate, the city gate closed with an ancient and dull sound.
The fire oil on the city wall burned out, and the bluestone could not be burned, so the fire naturally decreased
The soldiers of the city defense army seized the opportunity and poured up the city walls like a tidal wave.
There were only thirty or forty men on the wall, all leaning on their winch, calmly watching the soldiers who were slashing at them.
They have long known that they can't escape death today, so when death comes, they are very calm.
The Nanchu City Gate official, who had been in Tianyao for thirty years, watched his men fall in front of him one by one, smiled, poured all the fire oil placed next to him into the winch, and ignited it with a fire.
The winch was destroyed, and the gates were ruined, and no one could open them until the winch was repaired.
When the city defenders saw the fire burning, they were all furious, and slashed at him with their swords.
When the steel knife fell on him, this Southern Chu man who had been in Tianyao for thirty years was in a trance for a moment.
He knew a few of these city guards, and they had drunk together.
But now, he was their enemy.
In his life, he has only carried out one mission.
This task is enough to make him famous in the history of Southern Chu.
However, he still has some regrets.
He stayed in Tianyao for too long, so long that he almost didn't remember that he was a Southern Chu person, he was used to Tianyao's qiē, but he had to destroy this qiē with his own hands.
What a contradiction.
If there is an afterlife, it is better to stay in one place and only be a subject of one country.
At the moment of death, he thought a little sadly.
The turmoil in the capital of Tianyao came to an end with the melancholy sigh of an old city gate official, but those who left the city had to continue their escape.
There is a valley thirty miles west of the capital of Tianyao, which is nearly 100 zhang wide, with deep mountains and high cliffs on both sides, and only a cableway that can only accommodate two people to cross it.
If you want to cross the valley, you can only take it by the ropeway, otherwise you will have to detour for at least three more days.
After the valley, there is a dense forest that stretches for dozens of miles, which is enough to hide soldiers, and it will be difficult to find them again after entering the dense forest.
This is a good route to escape, Wei Liu knows it, and Tianyao also knows it, but the people of Tianyao don't take this direction into account.
Because from the city gate to the valley, if Tianyao out of the cavalry pursuit, they must be able to intercept the guards before they reach the valley, even if they can't intercept it, the distance of the ropeway is not short, not a moment and a half can run over, Tianyao sergeants can take advantage of them to run on the ropeway.
This valley is extremely deep, and the rapids below it are turbulent, and if you fall, you will definitely die.
So even though he knew that there was a dense forest in this direction, Tianyao didn't focus on prevention here.
But how could they have imagined that Nan Chu had laid a nail in Tianyao decades ago, and could block the west gate at such a time.
By the time the defenders chased after them from the other gates, Wei Liu and the others had already run across the valley and cut the rope bridge.
This life-threatening run did not end just because he left the city, but it was even more thrilling.
They had to rush to the funicular and lead to the valley of Guò, otherwise they would be doomed.
This time, Wei Liu's people did not cushion the back again, but ran ahead, leading the way for the others.
After running for about an hour, the people in front of him cheered loudly, because the ropeway was in front of them, and they were far away.
Wei Liu grabbed the horse's belly and sped up to meet it, followed by Ruan Yanluo.
Suddenly, Wei Liu stiffened the rope and forcibly stopped the horse.
At the cableway in front, thousands of Tianyao soldiers are stubborn and stubborn, and the soldiers are standing with their loads.
At the front of everyone, a man and horse lined up alone, and the person on the horse was not wearing armor, and a grass-colored robe flew at will, reflecting Ruan Yanluo's blue skirt.
The moonlight shone on the man's face, revealing a delicate and perfect face, and at this time, there was a faint smile on that face, and he said lightly: "This king has been waiting for Prince Weiliu for a long time. ”
Green Willow Camp, Nangong Ling.
These two words, hesitating like a nightmare, enveloped the people of Nanchu.
The ropeway was in front of them, less than 100 meters, but it was cut off by life and could not be stepped into.
"King Tianyao Ling, worthy of his name." Wei Liu said quietly.
