Chapter 54: Yan Yunxiong Pass
In the middle of the night, the Changle Palace under the moonlight was silent, and the forbidden soldiers, eunuchs, and palace maids who used to guard the night were still nowhere to be found, leaving only the old eunuch Zhou Baokang to meditate and practice at the palace gate.
The bright moonlight shines through the paper window, flooding the palatial palace bed, Zhong Lixiong is naked, leaning on the head of the bed carved in gold and jade, the Queen Mother Zhongda's face is flushed, leaning on a layer of red chest hair on his chest, and her white fingers are caressing her shoulders.
"The Northern Affair side will act tonight?"
Seeing that Zhong Lixiong was talking about current affairs again, although Zhong Da's face was a little displeased, she still comforted softly: "Don't worry, everything is under control." ”
"That's good, that's good. Zhong Lixiong just responded casually, his eyes were still staring blankly at the open space in the palace, he thought for a long time in his head, and sighed, "As long as the Lin family army is destroyed, and then Lin Dong is removed, this southern world will be your aunt." ”
"Mine, not yours. ”
"Wait. Zhong Lixiong's eyes were suddenly startled.
"What's the matter?" Zhongda looked lost.
"It's not. Saying that, Zhong Lixiong said worriedly, "What if the Imperial Southern Sect goes down the mountain?"
"I have arrangements over there, don't worry. ”
"Hmph~" Zhong Lixiong smiled with satisfaction, "It's still aunt, you are far-sighted, this trick to drive the tiger and devour the wolf not only cut Beiqi, but also wiped out the Lin family's army, killing two birds with one stone, seamless." ”
Zhongda looked ashamed when she heard this, and sighed coquettishly: "I kill two birds with one stone, how can you use one bird and two stones." ”
"When the time comes, my Dongyin throne will all depend on you, aunt. ”
"Don't worry. As she spoke, Zhongda looked charming, hugging and kissing each other.
——————
Under the moonlight, at the border between the North and the South, the Yanyun Mountains run east-west, and the Yanshan and Yunshan Mountains stretch for thousands of miles to the edge of the sky, and the intersection of the two mountains is the only Yanyun Pass that passes from north to south.
Yanyun Pass is left and right on the dangerous cliffs, but there is only a flat river in the middle. The pass is 10,000 feet high, 1,000 feet wide, the wall of the boulder casting base is 100 feet thick, nearly 100 giant arrow ballistas are installed at the battlements of each wall at the top of the pass, and four stainless steel boulder doors are closed, and even the warriors need to push the iron ladder to pass up and down. This Yanyun Pass only needs to be guarded by thousands of people, and it can reach the Beiqi Ten Thousand Army to press the border, defend it with danger, and attack it with defense, and the first Xiongguan in the world is unsurpassed.
Outside Yanyun Pass, the endless Beiqi ancient wood forest, towering like clouds, even in winter, the thick and hard needles are still lush, dark in the moonlight, if you don't look closely, you can't find a pair of hidden human eyes at all.
Wait, another pair.
Two pairs, three pairs, ten pairs.
Hundreds, thousands, thousands.
In Yanyun Pass, on the vast flat land, thousands of blue cloth marching camps stretch for more than ten miles.
In the camp tent of hundreds of low-level warrior soldiers in a circle on the periphery, you can see dozens of soldiers drinking crookedly, and there are empty wine jars scattered on the ground, some wine jars are half drunk and broken on the ground, and the wine jugs flow to the ground, and no one cares, bone dice, mahjong, pai gow, the gambling equipment that these soldiers usually play idle and play is scattered on the table, no one cleans up, and the camp tent goes inside, a scene of unbearable scenery.
In addition to a dozen or so drunken soldiers sleeping soundly around the fire, there were also a dozen or so soldiers naked, in groups of three or four, hugging military prostitutes and laughing for fun, growing up wantonly.
Most of these military prostitutes were grass valley women who came from Beiqi in the early years, their hair was disheveled, naked, and their faces were burned with a soldering iron with the word "grass", although they were tortured by the humiliation of the soldiers, they gritted their teeth and endured it, neither angry nor tearful, as if they were used to it, but from time to time their eyes briefly met each other, as if they were planning something.
In the open space in front of the large camp in the army, hundreds of carts of wine jars and silver boxes were piled up, leaving only a dozen or so soldiers drunk and leaning on the side of the truck, and beside them there was an open wine jar, lying around drunkenly.
In the large camp in the army, Tai Chongshan was drunk and asleep, tall and strong like a tiger, with angry eyebrows and big eyes, a black face and a long beard that could not see his mouth, and he hugged left and right in his arms, all of which were the women of the flower building invited by Yanyang City, a small city between Yanyun Pass and Yangping Pass.
On the side of the large camp in the army, there were several middle-aged widows and thin men sleeping soundly, looking at the dress, they should be eunuchs in the palace, and there was a holy decree and a military order that had just arrived today on the table.
The official words of the holy decree probably mean that the emperor sympathized with the hard work of the soldiers and rewarded hundreds of carts of fine wine and silver money to Yanyun Pass.
On the military order, it was Lin Dong's pen, saying that it was the alliance between the south and the north, and he was hereby given a three-day holiday, so there was no need to scruple.
As for whether this holy decree is the intention of Emperor Zhao Meng, and whether this military decree is written by Lin Dong himself, it does not matter to the nearly 10,000 pairs of eyes under the ancient wood forest outside the gate at this moment.
In the continuous marching camp of the Lin family's army, 50,000 border guards fell asleep drunk and indulged in pleasure until the second half of the night, and the entire military camp fell silent.
On the city wall at the pass of Yanyun Pass, hundreds of soldiers slept in the temporary military tent between the battlements, drunk and hazy, around the military tent, more than two hundred soldiers with longbows stood between the entrances of the city wall and looked out, and a jar of fine wine was placed beside them.
At this time, Lian Fenghuo came out of the temporary military tent, under the moonlight, with red hair, a black armor, and his facial features were not handsome, but his complexion was bronze, his body was strong, and he had a masculine beauty and ruthlessness when he looked closely.
As Lian Fenghuo patrolled all the way on the city wall, he saw a long bow man holding an altar and drinking for a long time, and patted him on the shoulder after walking quietly.
The archer was startled at first, hurriedly put the wine beside him, stood honestly, and shouted, "General." ”
Looking at his trembling appearance, Lian Fenghuo looked majestic, and changed his words when the words came to his mouth, just shouted an order: "Brothers, don't drink too much at night, just warm up your body a little, and it's not too late to let go of the drink tomorrow." ”
"No!" More than two hundred longbowmen responded in unison, and the momentum shook the sky, causing hundreds of black crows to flutter their wings and fly in unison between the mountains and forests on both sides, flying over the towering Yan and Yuner Mountains, until they reached the thousands of military tents in the pass, scattered in all directions, and hissing in a low voice.
The crow colony rose lightly, and the military prostitutes who closed their eyes and rested in the military tent opened their eyes together, looked at each other, did not speak, comprehended, and quietly pulled out a short dagger from the drunken soldier beside him, and looked around at dozens of drunken and sleeping soldiers, as if looking at a faint pig sleeping to death, one by one took turns wiping their necks, and without making a sound, they divided their heads and bodies, sprayed blood, and flowed all over the ground.
Waiting for the second low cry of this black crow, under the moonlight, nearly a thousand military prostitutes had already left the military tent together, walking on the barracks avenue in a dignified manner, naked, covered with blood, angry eyebrows, under the cover of night, quietly walking towards the four stainless steel giant rock gates under the gate.
