Chapter 191: Chasing the North (40)
More than a dozen knights walked through the snowfield.
Once winter begins, the harsh environment is better than ever. The temperature is constantly dropping, and the cold wind from the Tunguska steppe from the north is constantly sweeping. Heavy snowfall after snow, turning the entire world into a frozen world.
But in the land of the clouds, the mountains on all sides prevent the cold wind from blowing in. The climate is slightly better than that of the Seychelles. As a result, in the Sangan River Valley, the weather is more milder after being further weakened and sheltered by numerous mountain ranges.
In these places, military horses can barely move. According to historical records, there are still sporadic winter seasons when water turns into ice, and there are records of battles between the two armies.
However, on the grassland outside the mountains, there is no winter day in the cold wind and heavy snow, and the steppe knights have made a big move to invade the south.
This is all because the ancestors of the Han family occupied all the most suitable places for human survival and reproduction on the land of East Asia. They are the most valuable legacies left by our ancestors to future generations.
Since the end of the Han Dynasty, the high-ranking families have killed each other, and this plastered land in East Asia has attracted a large-scale invasion of foreign races. The Han civilization is endless, but in the end, it is difficult to defeat and assimilate one foreign regime after another, and establish the Great Sui. But in just a few decades, the Great Sui fell apart because of the internal strife of the family's high families, and no one knows how much internal friction and weakening it will have to experience in the next chaos, and whether the Han civilization can hold on to this rich land left by the ancestors!
These more than ten knights are none other than Xu Le and his party.
The Xuanjia Cavalry and the Lianghai Special Department had already converged, and Xu Le's team had already gathered in one place, temporarily getting rid of the danger. But how can these nearly 1,000 people stay in the wild for a long time? There has to be a place to stay. And Xu Le's goal is not only to survive, he must bite Wang Rengong until he finally avenges his grandfather's murder!
After arriving in the Wild Wolf Valley, Xu Le immediately selected a capable team and set off to go to Cloud City to contact Liu Wuzhou. Throwing himself to Liu Wuzhou is the only choice, but he can't be stupid enough to bring thousands of people over like this. With such strength, as well as the merits of defeating Wang Rengong, you can discuss the price of the service with Liu Wuzhou.
If it's just Xu Le, Xu Le really doesn't matter. Under Liu Wuzhou, if you cooperate, you will work, and if you don't, you will ride a dragon swallowing and pat your ass and leave. But now there are nearly a thousand subordinates, as well as the elderly, weak, women and children among them, Xu Le must protect their safety and interests to the greatest extent!
Along the way, Xu Le frowned and pondered from time to time on horseback.
That's a lot of work............
As for whether he has been playing under Liu Wuzhou, Xu Le didn't think about it. Migrating all the way to the Central Plains with nearly 1,000 people and horses is an extremely difficult thing to think about. But if you don't get to the Central Plains, how can you find out your life experience and end your grandfather's unfulfilled wish?
Following Xu Le, in addition to Han Yue, all of them were carefully selected Xuanjia cavalry and strong warriors of the Lianghai Special Division, Song Bao said that he had to follow up this time, and he was estranged from Xu Le for a while, and when he came back, he saw that Xu Le's team had swelled a lot. Song Bao naturally had a sense of crisis, and hid the different thoughts that came out of him deep in his heart, and he still looked like he was loyal to his life. Xu Le was also indispensable and took Song Bao with him.
In addition to them, there is one more small step. Xu Le didn't know why Bu Li stuck to himself again. But the little girl is willing to move around, and it's up to her. And Buli is not the person he wants to distract and protect, it is not the dangerous move of breaking into more than a thousand large camps, and it is not so easy for someone to hurt Xiao Buli.
Along the way, the Xuanjia cavalry warriors and the elite of the Lianghai Special Division, talking and laughing, were not lonely on the way, although the weather was cold and the snow was deep, but for the elite men who had no baggage to drag down and women and children to protect, they were also idle. Everyone is looking forward to coming to Cloudsdale and showing Xu Le's name.
Defeated Wang Rengong's Le Langjun to vote, up and down Yunzhong City, and had to set up a team to greet each other, Liu Wuzhou personally came to pick it up, and treated everyone as guests? This kind of scene has been imagined countless times by these knights along the way. This road is also more and more energetic, from the Wild Wolf Valley to the normal six or seven days of travel in Cloud City, a day in advance, it has already come to the left side of Cloud City!
Xu Le and his entourage came to a high place, looking at the past, it was rare to see the sunny day and good weather. The low walls of Cloudsdale are already in sight.
Outside the city walls, the defense line of the dwarf mountain military fortress is still the same. Between the defense line of the military fortress and the city wall, there is a camp composed of rows of fish-scale nests, which is the camp where a large number of people in the clouds live in winter. I have faintly seen many figures moving, and it is a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere.
Xu Le carefully glanced at the scene of Cloud City, and sighed slightly. The last time I came here, I was just a fledgling, and I didn't know that the sky was high and the earth was thick, and there was such a home as Xu Jialu behind me.
This time again, things are no longer human. He is still responsible for the fate of nearly a thousand people. And what awaits you in the future is even more unknown.
There is only one step at a time, no matter what kind of difficulties and obstacles, just hit it head-on!
Xu Le looked back and greeted his subordinates: "Let's go, go and say hello to Liu Wuzhou's subordinates first!" ”
Han Yue rode up and guarded Xu Le's side tightly, and on the other side, Buli naturally stood in place. Xu Le shook the reins, swallowed the dragon and hissed, and had already spread the horse's hooves and galloped towards the military village on the low mountain!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The people outside the city came out of the nest and started a new day.
In winter, you can live in a silhouette, although it is stable, you can also mix half full. But the days are long, and it's a bit boring.
Groups of people gathered in the camp, chatting with their hands in their hands, and some people were looking for food. The topic has been chewed over and over again these days, and everyone is a little lazy. Thinking that this kind of life will last for two or three months, I can't help but feel even more depressed.
There are also people who go out of the nest for a while, yawning and going back to sleep, although Cloud Everdale ensures that everyone has food supplies for the winter, but it is only half full, and it takes a lot of energy to talk and wander, and they are hungry and panicked when they can't eat, so it is better to sleep for a while.
Only the children were still laughing and playing, and they were full of energy early in the morning.
Amid the children's laughter and laughter, a common man suddenly wiped his snot from the frozen snot on his face and pointed to the south: "Look, there's movement there!" ”
When they looked to the south, they saw a military fortress on a low hill that controlled the passage, and the banner was flying, and it was transmitting a message to the city wall.
On the city wall, the recognition flag was also flipped up. There are also a few horsemen, who came out of the dwarf mountain military village and galloped straight over.
These horses all raised the speed of the horses to the highest, and they did not care about the serious loss of fat on the horses in winter, so they should cherish the horsepower, and they would go straight to the city in a short time. The gates of the city also opened with a bang, and several horsemen were brought in, and then the horn of the troop was sounded!
The people were now in good spirits, and they all knew the sound of the trumpet, which was not a warning signal for the whole city to be on alert, but a trumpet to move people out of the city. I don't know what happened, there was such a big commotion!
More people poured out of the nests and approached the walls to see what was going on. And the Hengan Eagle soldiers who maintained order in each camp also came out of their respective card gate shacks and began to maintain order. The crowd was full of chatter, speculating about what was going on.
The camp outside the city, which used to be quiet, suddenly became noisy.
After a while, the city gate was opened, and it was actually a large team of Heng'an armor cavalry who greeted it. The fat loss of horses in winter is really powerful, and it is difficult for Hengan Jia to ride and wait for leisure. But now, such a battle has been pulled.
What's more, these Heng'an armor riders are surrounded by Liu Wuzhou's banner!
It's actually Liu Wuzhou himself!
The people inquired about each other, asked each other, and asked each other, and they had the same meaning.
What's going on here?
