Chapter 432: The Eastern Army
Changzhi County has set up a guard tower on the top of a mountain not far from the border, the guard tower is very high, and with the height of the mountain, you can see it far away. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
From Changzhi County to Tongtian Lake is a continuous green mountain, which forms a natural protective circle for Changzhi County, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
If you want to enter Changzhi County from the direction of Tongtian Lake, there is only one road to enter.
On the high watchtower, there are three soldiers, squinting and constantly searching around. Here, they have an important mission, which is to warn the Eastern Army before it enters the checkpoint.
"Look! What is that! A soldier's eyes suddenly lit up, and he pointed to a black shadow in the distance.
The weather was not cloudless, and the constant rain in the sky and the constant stirring up of mist in the valley made it very difficult for the sentinels to spot the shadow of the enemy in the fog.
"Where?"
"Move the clairvoyant to the nearest position!"
"I saw it! It's the army of the East! They're coming! There are a lot of people! ”
They found a continuous black procession in the mist, and watched from afar, the procession was as small as ants, slowly wriggling on the ground.
"Quick! Send the news back! ”
"However, if we blow the trumpet, those people will surely hear it too, and our army will no longer be fit to ambush at the checkpoint."
"Whether they know that we have found them or not, they will never take it lightly, because they know that no matter what, we will definitely ambush them!"
……
Woo ~ woo ~ woo ~ woo ~
The sentinels blew their trumpets, and the sound echoed back and forth through the mountains, carrying far away.
"It's the sound of a warning trumpet! The sentries found the enemy's traces, there were many of them, the speed of action was not slow, and they were less than ten miles away from the checkpoint. ”
The person in charge of receiving the news was always vigilant, always keeping his ears to the sound of the horn on the mountain, and as soon as he heard the sound of the horn, he judged the information, quickly wrote it down, and asked his companions next to him to send it to the main tent.
He himself has to stick to his post, paying attention to everything around him.
When the trumpet sounded on the mountain, the advancing army seemed to hear the trumpet as well, and slowly stopped its wriggling pace.
"They found us."
In the middle of the procession, there is a luxurious carriage, and the person sitting in the carriage is the second prince of the current Eastern Kingdom.
Dong Li's slender white fingers pinched an orange petal, leaning lazily against the wall of the car, "It's strange if you don't find it?" ”
"His Royal Highness the Second Prince seems to be very confident." It was a veiled man dressed in black, and the man's eyebrows had a peculiar mark of flame.
"Confidence? What is that? His Highness has never been. He threw the orange petal into his mouth, and the pale yellow transparent orange juice flowed out, and on his lips, it was like a rose petal stained with dewdrops.
"Oh? I don't believe it. If His Royal Highness the Second Prince did not have confidence, how could he go out in person? ”
Dong Li Chong pinched another orange petal and put it in his mouth, enjoying it very much, "It's a little boring in the palace, so I came out to play and take a look at the exotic scenery by the way." ”
"His Royal Highness the Second Prince laughed."
"Jokes? I'm not kidding, don't you think the palace is too boring? Not free at all. It's still comfortable outside, and you can do whatever you want. Dong Li Chong sighed.
The black-clad masked man sitting next to him didn't believe his words in his heart. If the second prince is not free in the palace, then there will be no freedom in the world.
His Royal Highness the Emperor has reached a state of obsession with him, even if the second prince wants his favorite concubine in the harem, he will give it to the second prince, and if he wants to go out for a walk, he goes out at will. When other princes are in the palace, let alone going out, even if they are wandering around the palace and are discovered by His Royal Highness the Emperor, they will be severely reprimanded.
Thinking about it, the masked man in black didn't say it, just laughed.
Dong Li Chong glanced at him lazily, lifted the curtains, and said to the attendants outside: "Send the order down, stay on the spot, and wait for the next order." ”
"Yes!"
The black-clothed masked man was a little puzzled, "Why did the second prince stay here?" Now that our army's momentum is full, and it has just repelled the legendary invincible Northwest Army, are you still afraid of the guards of Changzhi County? ”
"Don't you use your brains to speak?" Dong Li Chong said, "The people of Yunguo are not fools, how can they not send troops to garrison the checkpoint?" Although we are not afraid of those people, we can only do it by fools if we drill directly into other people's ambush circles. ”
The face of the black-clothed masked man twitched, what did the second prince mean when he spoke, saying that he was a fool? If the emperor hadn't asked him to personally protect the second prince, he would definitely not have come thanklessly.
He pursed his lips tightly, his thick eyebrows furrowed tightly, and the internal qi in his body surged.
Dong Li Chong felt that his breath was unstable, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a mocking arc.
For this kind of person, my dear father has praised him many times, and I don't know what else is worthy of praise except brute strength. The one who hides his head and covers his face, and his whole body is pitch black, which is probably very unsightly.
Thinking mockingly in his heart, he threw the orange shell in his hand out of the window, and pulled up the curtains, feeling bored in his heart.
Sitting next to him is not a beauty, forget it, it is still a black dress and black face, it is really a bad scenery!
"The general has an order, stay in place." One by one, the soldiers took the things from the wagons and set up their tents in groups, and soon the trees around the camp were cut down, leaving some large stakes for seats or tables, and the rest were dragged away and piled aside.
"Jiajia, where are we going?" Yun Yumin touched his waist and frowned.
For a few days, he has been on the road, his back hurts and his legs cramp, his inner thighs have long been cocooned, and he has not taken a bath on his body, basically washed by the rain, and he feels that his body has begun to sour.
Yuan Shanjia straightened his cloak and looked around, and there was an empty space all around, as far as the eye could see. Around the official road is a neat field, and there are only some dead grass left in the field, and the green shoots that have grown in the field after harvesting grain.
"Jiajia ......" Yun Yumin said coquettishly, he knew that Yuan Shanjia couldn't stand him coquettishly.
Yuan Shanjia's eyes moved, and he said, "Leave Changzhi County." ”
"And where are we going?" Yun Yumin looked into the distance curiously.
They had been walking on a plain for two days and two nights. From afar, you can see the mountains surrounding the Changzhi Plain, and in the rain, the mountains covered with clouds and mist, like the fairyland of Penglai, make people fascinated.
"Jiangcheng." Yuan Shanjia replied succinctly.
It is said that it is Jiangcheng, but in fact, there is something wrong, it should be the location between Jiangcheng and Cailin Pass and Tongtian Lake, that is, Red Leaf Villa.
"Are you going to the imperial court to attack the army of the Eastern Kingdom?" Yun Yumin's eyes sparkled, and the look of excitement was displayed on his face.
