Gao Tang said with a sad face: "Two adults, you can let me do anything, even if I only take ten people to attack the Tartars, I am willing, it is a big deal." But let me lead the army to cross the Qin Mountain, this doomsday will not be able to die! ”

Hearing this, Chen An and Wu Qing looked at each other and smiled. Wu Qing said: "Gao Tang, you don't have to worry about this, I will compensate you for two guides." ”

When Gao Tang heard that two people thought of it, he guessed that it was the two standing next to him, so he looked over.

Wu Qing continued: "These two are your guides. ”

Gao Tang looked Li Hai and Li He up and down, because the task of finding the way in Qinshan of the three Li brothers was very secretive, so even a high-level general like Gao Tang didn't know about it.

At this time, he looked at the two of them, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his eyes.

Wu Qing saw Gao Tang's doubts, so he said: "Gao Tang, a month ago, the two of them went to Qinshan on the orders of His Majesty to find a way over the mountain, and they only came back four days ago. ”

Gao Tang asked, "So, these two brothers have found their way?" ”

Wu Qing smiled and said, "That's natural, otherwise how could I call you!" ”

Hearing this, Gao Tang smiled wryly and said, "The last general doesn't know, and I ask for forgiveness." ”

"Those who don't know are not guilty, the two of them are Li Hai and Brother Li, brothers, you can get to know each other!" Wu Qing said with a smile.

The three of them immediately approached and bowed hands to each other.

Gao Tang said: "In the lower Gao Tang." ”

"Under Lehi."

"In the Lower Lee River."

After meeting, Wu Qing said again: "Your Majesty has asked Li Hai and Li He to be the vanguard envoys, who are specifically responsible for leading the way for you." ”

"The last will understand." Gao Tang said.

"Since everything has been arranged, then the three of you are ready to prepare, and go to the foot of Qin Mountain tomorrow morning to meet the large army, and now there are two teams converging at the foot of Qin Mountain!" Wu Qing said.

"The last will understand." Gao Tang arched his hand and said.

"The villain understands." The brothers said together.

"Okay, you guys go." Wu Qing said.

"Yes."

The three of them said goodbye to Chen An and Wu Qing and went together. Although the three of them went, they did not leave the Yamen. There is a special place in the yamen for the accommodation of sergeants. And the three of them went there.

At this time, it was almost dusk, and the three of them got together for a few drinks, got to know each other, and talked about the future by the way.

Gao Tang is a high-ranking general, and Li Hai and Li He are both small soldiers, and they are very respectful when they see Gao Tang at this time. However, Gao Tang said: "Two brothers, you don't need to be like this, you have made great achievements in front of Your Majesty, and your promotion in the future is certain." ”

The third Li He said: "General Gao has won the award, and he doesn't dare to do any miracles." It's just a little thing to find your way. ”

Gao Tang said: "Is this still a small matter? You must know that no one has turned over this Qinshan in a hundred years. This is not a small achievement, you have found a way into the chest of the Tarslaves. With this route, it was possible to attack the Tatars by land. This can be said to be of great significance to our Han army! All of a sudden, it changed the geographical advantages of our Huahan Dynasty and the Tatars. It is not at all worthwhile to say that you have done this merit. ”

What Gao Tang said is indeed not false at all, this road over the mountain is like a beam of light in the dark night, straight into the dark place.

After listening to Gao Tang's words, the two brothers were no longer humble, and looked at each other and smiled.

Gao Tang narrowed his eyes and smiled, and asked again, "Two brothers, tell me how you found the way over Qinshan?" ”

Li He told the story of this mountain patrol again.

Gao Tang couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, and sighed and said, "You guys are also nine deaths!" ”

The second Li Hai said: "But isn't it, the old village chief fell off the cliff." ”

"Well, listening to the two brothers, that old village chief is really worthy of admiration!" Gao Tang also said.

Afterwards, the three of them said something about the road and went to sleep.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, the three of them rode out of the west gate, and one went west. The three of them did not dare to delay on the road, and they arrived at Lijia Village at the foot of Qinshan seven days later.

The army has not yet been assembled, and tens of thousands of horses from the central part of the country have arrived, but according to the spies, they will be there in three days.

The troops who came were stationed in Lijia Village, and the villagers gave up their houses to the soldiers, knowing that they were going to climb the mountains to attack the Tarslaves. Naturally, it was received with the fullest hospitality.

The son of the old village chief inherited the position of village chief of the old village chief and personally arranged the reception of the army. Since there are many soldiers, most of them still have to hold tents.

In the evening, the son of the old village chief gave a banquet to the brothers Gao Tang and Li Hai and Li He. At the wine table, he learned that his old father had sacrificed his life for the country. Wiping tears also felt worth the old father's death.

It is said that human death is heavier than Mount Tai and lighter than a feather. The old man is also heavier than Mount Tai. He used his life to find a path for the Han army to climb the mountain.

Li He said: "Big brother, our two brothers have already told Your Majesty about the old village chief, and Your Majesty said that he would reward you, but it will not be until we win the battle." ”

The son of the old village chief said, "I do not ask for your majesty's reward, but only for your majesty to strike hard at the Tarslavs, so that I will be satisfied." ”

This Lijia Village, located at the foot of the tail of the eastern edge of Qinshan Mountain, has a very closed environment, and even then it has been trampled by the Tartars, which shows that the tentacles of the Tartars' rule are omnipresent.

At this time, Gao Tang said: "Don't worry, when I lead the army into the place of the Tarslaves, I will definitely kill them without leaving a single piece of armor." ”

The old village chief's son immediately picked up a bowl of wine and said, "General Gao, I salute you with a bowl and wish you a great victory." ”

"Okay, I'll drink." Gao Tang also picked up the wine bowl and dried it in one gulp, very arrogant.

Then the four of them gossiped a little more, and then went to rest.

Three days later, the army of 100,000 was assembled.

Gao Tang gave them another day of rest. Good enough to nourish the spirit of climbing.

The next day, before the sun was out of the mountain, an army of 100,000 men was marching out.

The second and third Li Hai led the way in front, but because there were too many people and the mountain road was steep, they could only move forward in batches. When the last army left Lijia Village, the sun rose and came to the east.

Although he still knows the way, (Li He has made a mark, just look for the mark and walk.) But because of the large number of people, the movement was still very slow.

Gao Tang was a little anxious, but he couldn't help it. The only way to get the troops to march as fast as possible was possible.

Due to the difficulty of the road, I can only rest at night.

"General Gao, this is not a matter of urgency." Li He said to Gao Tang.

Gao Tang nodded.
