Chapter 433: Escape

Hedong Pei's had the meaning of swaying.

There is no way, together with the flames of war, they are the first to smell it.

And the survival of these gate valve clans is also the same, betting on both sides of this kind of thing is not too easy to do, and the Pei family in Hedong has a big business, and it has surpassed the Jinyang Wang family to become the first gate valve in Jin.

The bets they made were not only on both sides, Li Mi, Dou Jiande, Wang Shichong, and even Xiao Miao's place all had Pei's children.

Therefore, no matter who becomes the winner, Wen Xi Pei's or Wen Xi Pei's family, just like Pei Shiqing himself said, Pei's family can be inherited for thousands of years without ending in the world, because they never live in a Jedi.

When the Jinyang Wang clan declined, compared with the Pei clan in Hedong, it was more than a step behind.

It's just that Pei's move this time is indeed a bit out of helplessness, because Li Ding'an's rise in the contemporaneous period is too short, but the momentum is extremely fierce.

No one thought that Li Yuanji could easily lose Jinyang, and no one could have imagined that Daizhou was sandwiched between the Turks and Li Tang, but he could attack the Turks in the north and Li Tang in the south.

In a hurry, the bet is a little hectic, and the carving traces are heavier, and it is inevitable that it will fall behind.

This kind of thing that the two armies are about to fight, but the history of a state assassin sends people to cooperate with the enemy, the Pei family rarely does it.

……………………

And just when Pei's energy was exhausted and he fell into a swaying from side to side, a group of ragged and unkempt guys came out of Taihang Mountain.

As soon as the narrow road of Taihang Mountain came out, a group of people gasped, looked ahead for a long time, and there was some brilliance in their eyes, some people sat down on the ground, crying bitterly, and some cheered hoarsely.

In the middle of the night, an old man with thinning hair and a withered head was helped to the front.

The old man looked down at the ground, looked up at the sky, looked back at the towering Taihang peaks, and finally burst into tears.

In the past year or so, he has endured all the hardships of his life.

He Chou, not to mention that since the Sui Dynasty, thousands of years, an engineer like him can be said to be unique, and the person who can be compared with him is just Yu Wenkai of the same era.

The great craftsmen of the ancients must live behind them, not because of how exquisite their skills are, and they can create patterns like wooden oxen and flowing horses, but because none of the ancient craftsmen can have the opportunity to participate in such engineering construction as them.

In terms of overall planning, no one can compare to the two of them.

Now that Yu Wenkai has died in Luoyang, there is only one He Chou left in the world.

From Jiangdu to Hebei, under the persecution of Yu culture and persecution, he became the secretary of the Ministry of Industry for a period of time.

When Yu Wenhua died, everyone scattered, and most of them eventually became Dou Jiande's captives, and He Chou was lucky to rush out of the chaotic army, and fled all the way into Taihang Mountain in a panic.

This is a clear proof that Dou Jiande's strength is relatively weak, many Sui ministers should have become his prisoners, but they all ran away in the net, and He Chou was one of them.

Fortunately, if someone else drills into Taihang Mountain in winter, it is likely that they will not be able to get out.

But He Chou and a few of his students were there, found a water source, commanded the guards to cut down trees and build houses by the water, and went hunting everywhere, and they survived the winter of the fourteenth year of the great cause safely.

When the weather was a little warmer, a group of people finally explored the narrow road and trekked all the way out of the Taihang mountains.

At this time, their excitement was understandable, and the experience of the fourteenth year of the great cause was like a nightmare for them.

Now, although the road ahead is vast and I don't know where to go, it can be regarded as the rest of my life.

When the emperor died, they didn't die, the army fought repeatedly, many people died, they were still alive, the city of Wei County was broken, so many people fell under the sword and gun, but they survived.

Taihang was snowing heavily and the cold was all over, and they survived the difficult winter without losing one person.

They are living miracles......

The old man He Chou was not lightly tired, wiped his old tears for a while, and ordered everyone to set up camp on the spot, let him be a master of the world, and he could not be too particular at this time.

Everyone was exhausted, so everyone had to gather in one place, light a few bonfires, and take out the jerky to gnaw hard.

The old man slept until dawn, and when he was woken up, he felt that his body was really difficult to support, so he asked people to cut wood and build a car and pull him forward.

There is no need to ask, this must be Shangdang County, and Lucheng should be not far ahead.

Some people want to stay in crowded places, and some people suggest going to the big city, at this time most of them no longer have the mind to think about who to vote for or not, they just want to sleep peacefully and eat some hot food.

Of course, most of them are Kansai Xiaoguo, and Li Yuan is the best target for them.

But the old man He Chou estimated that he was fed up with the involuntary suffering, and he didn't want to be sent to Li Yuan like a cargo, so he insisted on moving forward and didn't let everyone swagger.

He has a very high prestige among a group of people, there is no way, a group of people can survive, all thanks to the old man.

He Chou's youngest son broke a leg in the mountains, and while lying in the car, he persuaded his father to go to Hedong Pei's family, because it was not a way to go on like this.

Now the party is also desolate, and some people turn a blind eye to them and avoid them.

Later, I inquired and found out that the war in Jindi is estimated to be no worse than Hebei, Li Yuan is competing with Li Ding'an in the north, and people are dispatched everywhere to force the people to be strong, so that the party is very unstable, and bandits are breeding everywhere.

Maybe when he will run into the official army and be dragged to be a civilian man.

Moreover, there are old ministers of the Sui family here in the party, and they are also preparing for war, as for whether to defend the territory, or if they want to stab Li Yuan, only God knows.

A group of people who had suffered a great deal trembled.

And they have been moving up the Shuoliu and marching in the northwest direction, and it is estimated that it will not take long for them to leave Shangdang at the junction of Xihe County and Linfen County, where the two Li are fighting each other.

He Chou heard the name of Hedong Pei's family coming out of his son's mouth, so he glared at his son fiercely, if it weren't for his son breaking a leg, it is estimated that the old man would be able to slap him a few times first.

This resentment is not for no reason, it is all on Pei Ju, among Yang Guang's close ministers, there are really few people who have a good impression of Pei Ju.

Especially after the chaos in the world, everyone talked about it in private, and they all said that Pei Ju was playing with power and blinding the Supreme, so that there was today's disaster, like killing the Turkic favored ministers, which was better than the Turks, like what the Three Expeditions to Goguryeo, all of them were buckled on their heads.

In He Chou's opinion, a slanderer like Pei Ju is worse than Yu Shiji.

The old man snorted a few times and ordered everyone loudly, "Let's go, let's go to Jinyang." ”

Everyone was shocked, if you don't go to Linfen County or Jiangxian County, or simply stay in Shangdang, why don't you go south but go north? Go to vote for Li Po and Li Ding'an? What's the difference between that and Dou Jiande?

The old man said conclusively, "I have an old ...... with the Jinyang Wang clan Besides, Li Yuan was originally a clan and stole the throne, and I was a close minister of the first emperor, how could I serve him? ”

Everyone was silent, well, this statement is really not convincing to talk about them who escaped death, most of them just want to go back to Kansai as soon as possible and reunite with their families.

The old man finally couldn't stand everyone's gaze and ripped off the mask of hypocrisy.

"You don't want to think about it, this soldier is fierce and dangerous, you always have to find a place to shelter, this is only the nearest Jinyang City, no matter who wins or loses, we are as stable as Mount Tai in Jinyang City......"

"Want to go back to your Kansai homeland? The road is long, and who wants to escort us all the way? Li Ding'an has won, and he is bound to sweep Jindi, where can we settle down to avoid being caught in the flames of war? ”

Well, what the old man said has some truth, but it is also very far-fetched.

In fact, in the final analysis, it was because he was unwilling to take refuge in the Pei family in Hedong, and then there was the fact that he was afraid to go all the way, if he had known that it was so hard, he would have lost Dou Jiande in Wei County, why did he have to suffer so much?

Moreover, the most important reason is that he is a master of engineering, looking at Jindi, only Jinyang City sees it in his eyes, thinking that it is a place that is difficult for manpower to attack, and it is the safest, and it is close to Shangdang.

As for whether people accept him or not, he doesn't bother to think about it at all, he is a useful person wherever he goes.

Emperor Yang Guang of Sui used him, Yu Wenhua and the traitor also treated him like a guest, Dou Jiande was so anxious about his pursuit, he chased him into Taihang Mountain, it was definitely not because he wanted his head, but because he wanted to use his talents.

It's not that he is arrogant, if Li Yuan knows that he is coming to the party, he will definitely ask someone to send a large army to escort him to Xijing Chang'an.

Yes, his skills are much more popular than those brave generals.

If he goes to Jinyang, then Li Dingan won't greet him?

But to be honest, his decision to go to Jinyang was indeed the product of his fear of the journey after a long journey, Kansai was too far away, and he was afraid of dying on the road.

And the old man was obviously not as convincing as Pei Shiqing, and that night, some of the people who accompanied him secretly ran away.

Fortunately, no matter how thick this kind of thing is, or other people are used to it, starting from Jiangdu to Hebei, the escaped Guanxi Xiaoguo is not one or two, otherwise, how could Dou Jiande easily break through Wei County?

Everyone didn't care too much, but the old man was afraid that the news would leak out, so he began to urge everyone to move forward.

The journey was not easy, because they were going to surrender to the enemy from Tang Land, so naturally they could not go unimpeded.

When their group of "beggars" left the party and met Li Po's downstream ride, it was a few days later than Pei Xu.
