Go, only go hard.

When Lu Shi got the Heavenly Star Zhao Dahai and others rushed back to report the ambush situation, he didn't expect that the border army would suddenly increase so much, and the uneasiness in his heart became more and more serious, but now that he is ready to fly, it is impossible to turn back, and only going forward is the way out.

This time, the third uncle and other leaders no longer insisted on the original opinion, completely agreed with Lu Shi's suggestion, discarded all the heavy baggage, and the whole army took all the important things that could be carried on the body, and all the others were abandoned, leaving the current Wuding River Valley, crossing the mountains in the west, and then crossing the Qingjian River Valley again, without making any stops, directly entering the reckless mountains, trying to get rid of the pursuers, and turning to Weinan.

The people of the old camp also felt the nervousness above, and involuntarily accelerated the speed of the march.

The rooster crowed all over the place, and the people and horses of Woniu Mountain stepped on the vast moonlight and quietly continued to set off to the south.

Guotianxing Cao Meng led his own soldiers and spearmen to open the way in front, Zhao Dahai and Geng Kui pressed the formation behind, Lu Shi Chen Ce took heavy soldiers, and the new attached army protected the old camp in the center.

Lu Shi specially ordered his children's group and students to wear rattan armor tailored for them, strict inspections, and constant instructions, for fear of missing even the slightest flaw. This made those children very excited, no one in this world, including parents, cared so much about them, some friends gathered together and kept whispering, and swore to use their weak bodies and lives to protect the safety of teachers.

Lu Shi deliberately rushed to his sister-in-law, and repeatedly told him that no matter what happened, don't panic, be sure to follow the brigade closely, and then take a set of captured officers and soldiers' cotton armor in the hands of Chunlan, who followed closely, squatted down and put it on Xiaoya carefully, carefully tied each knot, and tirelessly said to Xiaoya: "Xiaoya, uncle can't be around you, you must take care of yourself, you can't be separated from the team, you must take good care of your mother, you must." ”

Xiaoya was annoyed by Lu Shi's fiddling, and waved her little fist and said loudly: "Uncle, don't worry, I will go with you to kill the enemy in a while, and I will protect you." ”

Lu Shi's eyes were hot, and he kissed Xiaoya's already ruddy face lovingly, then stood up, glanced at his sister-in-law who was full of care, and whispered: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will not let them hurt half a cent." ”

The sister-in-law immediately said: "Uncle take care is serious, I don't worry about the three children." But in a blink of an eye, he wiped his eyes with his sleeve and whispered: "The Zhang family has three seedlings, and one or two are still alive after they die, but brother, you can't miss the slightest, I want to take care of the incense of the Lu family, or if I go, I see the uncle and aunt I haven't met yet, what should I say?" ”

Lu Shi only had a stream of warmth tumbling between his chest and abdomen, and at this moment he really found the feeling of home again, there was no loneliness and loneliness in this world, and his uncle and sister-in-law were speechless for a while.

"Okay, uncle has important things to arrange, I have to chase the team." After speaking, he picked up the little girl who had become bloated and chased after the team, and in the endless firelight, the little girl's smiling face and waving little hands were clearly visible in the firelight.

The outpost crossed a mountain pass and entered a deep canyon, and when they walked out of this canyon, they crossed the Wuding River valley and entered the Qingjian River valley, which was considered to have entered Yanchuan.

The land of northern Shaanxi is full of valley beams and ravines washed out by rain, and the army that can move is the valley that is impacted by several big rivers and rivers in northern Shaanxi, but fortunately, now the army has discarded the cart and baggage, and can travel through the valley and ridge, and the marching speed is significantly accelerated.

Look at the peaks and dense forests on both sides, the moonlight does not shine, it is very dark. There is a cottage on the hill on the left, and the gate tower is higher than the forest, showing in the cold moonlight. The whole stockade was foggy, as if watching the people and horses in the canyon pass by. But it seems that it was all agreed in advance, and everyone was safe, and the sound of the guards came from the cottage, mixed with the intermittent rooster crow.

Lu Shi was very nervous, once this fortress broke the agreement and rushed out, it would definitely be able to disrupt the speed of the march, at this time, a cold little hand reached over and held Lu Shi's hand tightly, and there was a damp and cold feeling in the palm of the hand.

"Don't worry, there should be no problem." Lu Shi comforted Chunlan, but obviously in the slightly bright sky, he saw Chunlan's biting lips.

There is no light on the wall, only a few cold stars hang in the corner of the hanging tower, everyone is walking forward, while looking at the mountain, suddenly heard a guard shouting in a hoarse voice: five more dawn, beware of robbing the village, guard well! This last word dragged on for a long time, echoing on the mountainsides on all sides, giving a sense of sorrow in the frosty and cold wind, and then the voice asked, "Guys, are you well guarded?" Another voice replied, "Well guarded!" "Is it well guarded?" "Hold it firm!" These questions and answers, with echoes, sank into the canyon like a challenge, and many of the people in the team began to whisper insults at the cottage, some spitting hatefully, some mocking contemptuously. The passing star who was moving forward ordered sternly in a whisper: "Pass backwards, don't make a sound!" "Pass, don't make a sound!" These words, forward, backward, in a low and serious voice, came out one after another. When it came to Lu Shi, he was also like an ordinary warrior, and he was very accustomed to repeating it. So this order was passed through the mouths of the generals and soldiers and the dependents behind his back, through the mouths of the generals and soldiers, through the mouths of the dependents, through the Chinese army and the old battalion, and quickly to the rear team. Suddenly, there was not a single sound of speech in the canyon, not even the sound of a gentle cough, only the sound of horses' hooves, footsteps, the clashing of guns, swords, and halberds, all of which were mixed into the boundless sound of pine waves on both sides of the canyon. It took more than ten miles to get out of the canyon, and then there were endless hills. At this time, the men and horses had already walked more than thirty miles, and the sky was gradually clear. Further south, you will go out of the valley and enter the open valley of the Qingjian River.

Lu Shi stopped, waited for the army to pass, let a herald come to his side, and whispered to him: "Hurry up and rush to the front, and tell the commander to be cautious and beware of ambushes." The well pointed to a hill seven or eight miles away and said, "Stop at the hill, let the front party rest, and if there is water, drink the horses." After speaking, he and Chunlan who followed closely behind him ascended to a high ground and waited for Zhao Dahai, who was in the army after the break.

After a while, Zhao Dahai rolled over with the rear team, and saw his brother from a distance, Zhao Dahai hit the horse and went uphill, and said with a sigh of relief: "This is too depressing, but fortunately, there is no danger to come." ”

He looked at the terrain near the left again, and suggested to Lu Shi: "The front is about to enter the Qingjian River Valley, which is a horse Pingchuan, and the old camp of the army is moving smoothly, but the chasing soldiers behind are still ghostly, and the pursuit is speeding up, where the chasing soldiers will also be well deployed, I see that the terrain is very good, guarding the throat, I want you to take the army forward, I will take a part of the men and horses here to find a dangerous place to hold, and then block the pursuers for a period of time, so as to ensure the safety of the brothers." ”

Lu Shi waited for Zhao Dahai to say this question, as soon as Zhao Dahai raised it himself, Lu Shi was overjoyed at that time, Zhao Dahai slowly exercised himself in this blood fire, and became a far-sighted, independent thinking and independent general, which was the most gratifying for Lu Shi.

So he praised: "My brother has a long sight, but he can be alone, brother, I have this idea, but I have worked hard for my brother." ”

"Where do you come from? You and I are brothers, but we are not comparable to others. After a pause, he looked at the old camp that entered the valley like a long dragon, and said meaningfully: "I Zhao Dahai has been adrift for most of my life, and I have only seen a person with great ambitions and a great future like my brother. ”

Lu Shi was very moved in his heart, since this crossing, it has been really a lot of hardships and hardships, thanks to Zhao Dahai's righteous help, he is alive today, and even more so today, Zhao Dahai has been shaving his heart and lungs, where is he not moved inexplicably?

After a long time, he calmed down and said in a low voice: "How many people does my brother need?" "There are more than 20,000 chasing soldiers behind, and it is really difficult for this brother to have fewer people.

Zhao Dahai thought for a moment and said firmly: "Don't want anything else, just my cavalry battalion brothers." Later, seeing that Lu Shi was not at ease, he said again: "If my brother is not at ease, I will be allocated another 500 new annexed troops, these 800 brothers I don't expect to charge into battle, there is no problem in choosing a risk to defend to the death." ”

Although Lu Shi knew that it was very dangerous for these horses to deal with the 20,000 border army pursuers, but the road ahead was confused, and the military horses in his hands were limited, so he could only do so, so he said apologetically: "Brother Lao, as long as you hold on for two days, no, one day, then we will pass through the Qingjian River Valley and turn into the vast mountains, at that time, the officers and soldiers will be helpless against us." ”

Then he took Zhao Dahai's hand again and said, "Brother, when things can't be done, we must let go, we still have a chance." ”

Zhao Dahai also took Lu Shi's hand, stared at Lu Shi's eyes for a long time, and then shook it violently and said, "I will." ”
