Home.

Coming out of Hunyuan, the two of them went all the way to Yangyuan in the northeast.

Before leaving, Lu Rong thought very clearly, although the war has stopped now, but in the place where Datong Mansion borders Youzhou, in addition to the two passes of Baoma Pass and Bauhinia Pass and Yangyuan that has just been captured, there are only Junfeng that birds can't fly, and the Great Wall that blocks Beiban and the Central Plains.

If you want to return to Youzhou from these two places, you must cross the tight defense line of the Northern Barbarians.

On the contrary, Yangyuan has just changed hands, and the defense line between the two sides has definitely not been fully arranged, and it is the only way to go home.

In fact, the Dazhong Dynasty and the Northern Barbarians did not prohibit the circulation of the people, but the household registration and ultimatum inspections were extremely strict, and ordinary people couldn't get these two things at all, not to mention Lu Rong, the defeated soldier and Fan Jiang, who had lived in Hengshan for a long time.

Hunyuan is not far from Yangyuan, about less than 300 miles away, and it can be reached in about five days.

Along the way, Lu Rong's mood slowly calmed down from the excitement at the beginning, and then turned into worries and faint fears for the future.

The first question is whether he will return to the barracks. After experiencing the bloody battle in Lingqiu, Lu Rong seemed to be a human again. The originally imaginary pride was full of blood and was shattered by reality.

He didn't want to see corpses everywhere again, but the self-esteem and stubbornness he had cultivated since childhood did not allow him to become a deserter.

Strong contradictions were always clashing in his mind, draining his mind.

And then there's the pear. Every time Lu Rong thinks of pears, he will keep telling himself in his heart that he is still alive, and he must still be alive.

But as Youzhou gets closer and closer, such self-deception becomes more and more unable to convince himself.

Expectation and panic met each other in his head, like two armies with equal strength, clashing and shouting to kill, which made Lu Rong uneasy every day, and the pace under his feet gradually slowed down.

The nostalgia is even more timid.

Fan Jiang quietly enjoyed the slightly desolate scenery of northern Xinjiang along the way. It was as if everything in the world had nothing to do with her. She would occasionally jump off the horse and walk side by side with Lu Rong, staring at Lu Rong's side face with a smile with a pair of eyes that could see through people's hearts.

Seeing Lu Rong's creeps, he smiled and said nothing

Lu Rong knew that she could see the panic and fear in her heart.

In fact, he himself could not hide it at all. Even yesterday, Lu Rong used the excuse of being unwell to stop his horse early and rest for a day.

Fan Jiang didn't say anything.

Five days was just a short moment, and the two of them had already entered the vicinity of Yangyuan.

Yangyuan is located at the junction of Xuanfu and Datongfu, originally the land here is fertile and fertile, and it has been an official pasture since ancient times. It's just that since the fall of Datong Mansion, because it belongs to the military front, the horse ranch has long been destroyed in the war.

Lu Rong looked at Yangyuan Shun Shengchuan City not far in front of him, and his heartbeat gradually accelerated.

Fan Jiang stepped on the stirrups with both feet, straightened up, and looked into the distance.

Although it was late autumn and early winter, there was no snow, and the whole grassland was yellow and dry, and it became more and more desolate.

"There's a squad ahead." Fan Jiang said lightly.

Lu Rong raised his hand to support the shed, and vaguely saw a black shadow, coming towards him, it should be the defenders of Yangyuan.

Sure enough, after a while, a cavalry team of about thirty people, wearing the uniform of the Yan Army, holding a long knife, and a light crossbow on their waists, came to the two of them on horseback.

The first man raised his spear and shouted, "Who is it! Password! ”

Lu Rong hurriedly held the horse, hugged his fists and said: "Lu Rong, the sergeant who belongs to the Laoshan Battalion of the Guanwei Guard, is defeated and fled in Lingqiu some time ago, and wants to return to the camp from now on. ”

The knight said, "Who is it right now?" ”

Lu Rong replied: "It's a friend in Xia, it was this girl who saved her, and she survived in Xia." After speaking, he lowered his head, only to find that Fan Jiang was holding a sword in his hand, and hurriedly continued to explain: "Brothers, my friend is a swordsman, forgive me." As he spoke, he gave Fan Jiang a look.

Fan Jiang was also interested, and nodded with a smile: "Hello everyone." ”

The knight still did not relax, but his tone gradually softened, and said, "Then please dismount the girl and hand over the package to us for inspection." ”

After checking, there was nothing else to say, and the knight said: "I want the two of you to follow me to the barracks, and after finding out the identity, I am making a decision." ”

Lu Rong hurriedly said: "It should be like this." ”

Lu Rong saw that Fan Jiang did not get on the horse, so he led the horse and walked with the cavalry to Shunshengchuan City. The cavalry team was also divided into two teams, one team continued to patrol, and the other pair took Lu Rong back to the city.

Seeing that Lu Rong was normal, the knight immediately hugged his fists and said: "The old mountain camp will not retreat from the enemy's death, brother admires!" ”

Lu Rong hurriedly said politely: "Defeated soldiers, ashamed." ”

The knight leaned over slightly and teased: "Brother's life is really good, not to mention the catastrophe, you can still meet such a beautiful lady." Hey. ”

Lu Rong was half frightened to death after hearing this, and quickly winked at the knight. The knight understood, laughed twice, and said no more. Fan Jiang didn't seem to care.

After a while, they walked into the city. Shunshengchuan City is not big, slightly smaller than the Fallen Horse Pass, it was originally the residence of the horse wrangler, and now it is changed into a military camp. I saw that there were soldiers patrolling everywhere, and a group of soldiers was practicing on the playground in the middle.

Lu Rong Fan Jiang was ushered into a barracks, and an officer was sitting at a table reading the papers.

The knight hugged his fists and said: "My lord, these two people came from the big companion, saying that they were defeated soldiers in the battle of Fallen Horse Pass, and they came to distinguish with the adults." ”

The officer raised his head, glanced at Lu Rong and the others, and then lowered his head and said leisurely: "Women are not allowed to enter and leave the army at will. ”

Lu Rong hurriedly said: "Don't blame my lord, in Xia Lu Rong, it is the sergeant of the old mountain camp in Maguan, this girl is the life-saving benefactor below, if it weren't for the girl, I wouldn't know where I died." ”

The officer looked up and muttered, "Lu Rong? Then I saw Fan Jiang's relaxed and casual expression, looking around, and saw her holding a sword, and unconsciously became angry, and drank: "The military camp is heavy, how dare you bring a sword into the account?" Left and right, down her weapon! ”

Lu Rong was stunned for a moment, and said that he was also negligent, forgetting to ask Fan Jiang to untie the sword, and hurriedly said: "My lord, forgive me, ......" Before he finished speaking, he heard two muffled snorts behind him, and the two pro-soldiers fell to the ground.

Originally from a rare woman in the ancient army, she licked blood with a knife every day, and was terrified. Although the Yan army has strict military discipline, it is inevitable that some dirty hearts are hidden deep in it. The woman named Yingzi smiled at the beginning of the Falling Horse Pass, and Lao Huang couldn't find the north, not to mention Fan Jiang's beautiful appearance. Therefore, the two pro-soldiers were in the barracks, and they had to be ordered, and their movements were inevitably a little ...... when they put down their swords Big.

Although Fan Jiang is kind, but after all, he has just entered the world, and he doesn't understand the law and discipline in the army, seeing that the hands of the two are a little unclean, one wants to drag his hand and press his back, and the other wants to grab the sword and touch his waist, and he is also a little angry, and he is not too hard, one of them rewarded a palm, plus the stumbling under his feet, and gave the two of them a strong fall.

Lu Rong looked back and saw that his head was big, and he hurriedly went over to drag Fan Jiang, who knew that the officer had already thrown out the Chinese book, stood up and shouted: "Presumptuous!" Is the army a place where you are rampant! Come! ”

Outside the account, five or six soldiers came in, all armed with spears, aimed at two of them.

Lu Rong held down Fan Jiang's sword-holding hand, but Fan Jiang waved his sleeves away, and he had no choice but to block Fan Jiang in front of him with his body, and hurriedly explained to the officer: "My lord is angry, forgive me, my friend is a Jianghu person, and I don't like others to use her weapon the most." ”

Fan Jiang also interjected on the side, and said with a sneer: "The hands and feet are not clean, you should be beaten." ”

The officer had the backbone of a soldier, not to mention whether his personal soldiers were reckless, but said that Fan Jiang beat his personal soldiers all over the ground in public. As the chief officer, he naturally has to protect the calf first and take down the two of them. Drink: "Take the two of them down for me!" ”

The soldiers on the left and right did not hesitate, and the military order was like a mountain, and they were about to come up. Fan Jiang struck first, panning one step in front of the three soldiers in the left rear, holding the sword in his right hand, and only using the scabbard to cut the spear body in the hands of the three people, the three people snorted and the weapon broke and fell over.

The soldier on the right was rushing over, one hit Lu Rong's calf with a spear, and the other wanted to hold Lu Rong's arm with a horizontal spear, who knew that Fan Jiang was faster, and after shocking the three of them, he half-spun his body, stepped back, stepped out with his right foot, and stepped on the ground with the spear that hit Lu Rong's calf, while grabbing the other spear with his left hand. The soldier felt a sharp tremor of the spear in his hand, and couldn't help but let go.

With a crisp sound, the spear under his feet was actually broken by Fan Jiang!

At this time, Lu Rong said in his mouth: "Miss Fan Jiang, don't do it!" Only then did he shout out completely.

Just now, the two officers' personal soldiers had already climbed up, protected in front of the officers, and pressed the waist knife in their forehand to guard it, but who knew that Fan Jiang was moving too fast, and before the two of them had their knives unsheathed, several soldiers were unloaded.

Lu Rong felt that his eyes were dark, and his heart was broken.

Fan Jiang contemptuously threw the spear he had snatched from his hand to the ground. He chuckled at the stunned Lu Rong again, and said, "Why don't I go out and wait?" ”
