Chapter 168: Arrive at Jiayu Pass!
After everyone woke up, Fu Xiaotian and after they ate a little something, they packed their bags and began to prepare to set off.
After everyone got on the horse one by one, Lin Ruopu and Lin Gongzi rushed over again and shouted at Chen Qinglian: "Miss Chen, where are you going on this trip?" When will you go back to Chang'an, and after you return to Chang'an, can you give me an address? I'm coming to you. ”
This kid didn't expect to be reluctant to fall in love with Chen Qinglian, but Chen Qinglian obviously didn't want to pay attention to him, so she just turned around and left, leaving no affection at all.
At this time, Fu Xiaotian leaned on Ban Yunyun's back, looked at Lin Ruopu, and quipped: "I said Lin Gongzi, don't think about it too much, this girl is impossible for you to catch up with in your life." ”
Lin Ruopu didn't believe this, and snorted coldly: "Is that the case, then we are clever, one day, I will trample you under my feet and let me slaughter you." ”
"Heh, I'll wait for ......"
With that, their team began to walk on. Along the way, I also saw a lot of scenery along the official road.
It turns out that this northwest region is not only the Loess Plateau in the image, but also small rivers, trees and flowers. It can be said that there are landforms in the north and south of the river.
But when you get to the border, the feeling of desert solitude will slowly hit, and a heavy atmosphere will also arise spontaneously.
Along the way, they also went back and forth, passing through more than a dozen post stations of different sizes.
These post stations, the further west you go, the more desolate they become, probably because of the lack of resources.
Finally, on this day, they came to the border pass, Jiayu Pass, which is the westernmost point of the Great Wall to defend the Han border, and the best place to defend against the Tubo and Yanliao kingdoms.
Of course, the Tibetans can also start directly from the Yumen Pass. But Yanliao is different, because they go directly to Jiayuguan, which is the closest and the most effortless.
Jiayuguan, although it is a border pass, but there is a city, and in the city, there are some local residents living. They live with the officers and soldiers all day long, and the people will help the officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers will help the people.
This is the combination of soldiers and civilians, and their respective matches, which is also excellent.
At this time, they came to the foot of the city gate, and they could see that the city gate was heavily guarded at this time, and several soldiers were standing at the city gate, and on top of it, there were also rows of soldiers.
Walking forward, a soldier at the gate of the city stopped everyone and asked with a very serious face: "Who are you, this is the border fortress, if there is nothing to do, it is better to go back quickly!" ”
At this time, Chen Guoguo took out his token from his arms and said to him: "Captain Shangcai, Chen Guoguo, I don't know if you still remember me?" ”
The soldier shook his head: "I don't remember, Lord Captain, did you once garrison here?" ”
Chen Guoguo was also helpless, and said with some embarrassment: "You are a rookie, you have to know me." I think back then, I made great achievements here, resisted foreign enemies at this pass many times, and made great contributions. ”
It is also true that for an officer like Chen Guoguo, he started from the lowest level of soldiers, and he will only be promoted after making military achievements. This is a great honor for these soldiers.
"Captain Chen, you're right, I'm a recruit, and I hope to forgive my sins!" Although this little soldier is a newcomer, the momentum of his speech is not inferior to others. When this sentence is spoken, it is called a sonorous force.
At this time, Yang Sili on the side also stepped off the horse and laughed: "Oh, Lao Chen, what's the matter with you, you are still a captain, no one knows you!" ”
Chen Guoguo rolled his eyes, "Be serious, what are you laughing at, I'm going to take you to see the general later!" ”
As soon as the words fell, another soldier next to him also shouted: "Welcome to the return of Captain Chen!" ”
Chen Guoguo waved his hand, signaling that they didn't have to do this, and then led everyone into the city.
Along the way, it was really hard, especially Fu Xiaotian, who felt that his waist was about to break, and it was indeed very bad for a person like him who didn't ride a horse to keep being on this horseback.
Walking into the city, Fu Xiaotian smiled bitterly: "Hey, I finally don't have to ride a horse, but I am tired, and the whole person is prostration." ”
Chen Qinglian looked at Fu Xiaotian coldly on the side, and said with some mockery: "Just you, your wife is riding a horse, you are holding in someone's body, isn't her waist tired?" Look at the bull-eyed strong man with a pair of sledgehammers behind him. ”
"Not to mention these two, Zhuge Iron and Steel and Yang Sili, isn't there no problem?"
As soon as Chen Qinglian said this example, Fu Xiaotian was also a little helpless, his body and bones were already weak, and besides, this horse was still so strong, it had been tossing and turning, and his ass had actually blossomed a long time ago.
However, he still quibbled: "As far as you say, am I not also a showman?" Am I not a scholar? You ice girl, why are you talking about me here, mind yourself! ”
"Too lazy to talk to a weak chicken like you!"
"You make it clear to me, you say, who is the weak chicken? You're the weak chicken! You're a chicken..." Fu Xiaotian's mouth, he just doesn't have a long memory, and he accidentally said this sentence.
At this time, Chen Qinglian directly pulled out her sword and stabbed Fu Xiaotian, but it didn't hurt him, but passed directly by his cheek. This sword, impartial, directly cut off a strand of his hair.
"Fu Xiaotian, you give me attention, I have warned you many times, if you are so open-mouthed, I will really be ruthless!" Chen Qinglian frowned, and at the same time quickly withdrew her sword.
This action was like flowing water, all in one go, and Yang Sili on the side was stunned, applauding and praising him: "Sister Chen, you are so powerful, can you teach me well?" Sister Yunyun has never taught me, I'm so sad, you can definitely teach me, right? ”
Isn't this guy a little prince? Why is it that at this time, the identity has changed so quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it has become a dog's leg.
As for Chen Qinglian, she glanced at Xiao Yang with ignorance, and then led the horse to walk in front, and said plainly: "You Sister Yunyun is right, now you have too weak foundation, and it is impossible to make a sword." Again, when you go to the battlefield, you still have to use a broadsword, the sword is not suitable for the battlefield at all, it is too light to kill the enemy! ”
