After the man carried the bundle of firewood and left, Guo Dudu said to the officers and soldiers who were guarding the capture, "Have you felt any neck pain in the past two days?" ”

Everyone was puzzled, Guo Dudu said, even I, the governor, have a sore neck, and someone put a high hat on me when I fell asleep. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info The emperor added a Luntai County to me, and the Chief Pastoral Supervisor Gao added another Qinghai County to me, you have become a heavenly soldier at this time, and you must have the responsibility of a heavenly soldier.

Everyone said yes in unison. Guo Dudu suddenly heard Gao Jun's news, and of course he was in a good mood. At that time, he brought people to carefully inspect and arrange the cliffs on both sides of the river valley around the guard.

He arranged for people to place more rolling logs and boulders on both sides of the river valley, so that in case the villagers were in a hurry to hide here, the people above did not have to go down, and the entrance could be blocked at the top of the mountain.

He also told the guards to prepare two soft ladders from now on that could lead from the top of the hill to the valley. In case the outside is pressed, while sealing the mouth of the valley, the soft ladder can be used to transfer those Qinghai county residents to the top.

Gao Min listened to Guo Dudu's "Qinghai County" chief and "Qinghai County" short, and seemed to approve of Gao Jun's resettlement, could it be that this county of 100 people that emerged from the river valley was really included in the territory of Xizhou?

After settling all this, Lord Guo left the guard and returned non-stop, and wanted to go to Alashankou to see it in person, and if there was nothing uneasy there, the governor would rush back to Yanqi.

The time had passed since the time had passed when he had been captured from the Qisi River, and the governor was anxious, and this time he did not set up camp on the way, and the people on their horses gnawed on dry food and hurried all night, and at dawn, they arrived at the foot of the Alashan Pass.

The envoy who guarded the west side of the mountain pass was the brigade commander Duan Zhenghai, the last time the Duan brothers cooperated with Gao Jun to come to Yanqi to rescue, because they sent troops without an order, although the credit was there, but the official did not see any praise.

This time, the Baiyang River was established, and Gao Jun recommended it to Guo Dudu, so he demolished the two brothers in two places. Each person's position has not changed, but the grade has been upgraded by two levels, and Duan Zhenghai has come to Baiyang River.

Guo Dudu knew Duan Zhenghai and asked him about the situation in the mountain pass. Duan Zhenghai replied, "If General Zhao doesn't let us go to the mountain pass, let us stay here, and he will lead people to guard it." ”

Guo Xiaoke decided to go up to see it in person, Feng Zheng said, "Lord Guo, the cold wind is biting on the mountain pass, and I can't breathe, waiting for General Zhao and our personnel to be on top, don't worry." ”

Guo Dudu said, if others can go up, I can go up, so I can rest assured that I can take a look. So despite people's dissuasion, Guo Dudu and his subordinates fought on horseback.

Gao Min became Feng Zheng, the deputy supervisor of Poplar Mu, although he was a little frightened about climbing this mountain pass that was half hidden in the clouds, but he couldn't show it at all, so he followed behind the governor.

At first, the trail was quite open, except for the discomfort of leaning over a little and lying tightly on the saddle bridge. However, after half an hour of walking up, the road is extremely difficult. In some places, he had to get off the horse and lead him, and Gao Min gritted his teeth and stiffened.

Halfway up the mountain, the trees are verdant, the flowers are fragrant, and there are butterflies flying in the flowers. When you go up, these things suddenly disappear together, and you suddenly enter late autumn from spring and summer, and then you go like early winter.

And Gao Min's chest seemed to be congested with a mess, and his head was a little painful. Just when he was miserable, he suddenly heard someone cheering overhead, and it was the guards on the pass who saw the banner of the governor of Xizhou and greeted the governor with shouts.

When Guo waited for the edict to hear the news, he personally ran down to greet his father. Like many people, he was on duty on the mountain pass for days, and his face was flushed with a layer of purple, but fortunately, everyone was in good spirits. While answering his father's inquiry, he led everyone to climb up to the pass.

It is said to be a mountain pass, but it is not very open, and it is a gap between two peaks on the summit of the peak. It is such a place, and it is also the only place where the Silk Road must pass through to enter the Western Regions. There is no way to go anywhere else.

The governor saw that the pass had already been reinforced with boulders, leaving only a narrow pass leading to the outside of the mountain. Guo Xiaoke let the edict lead, climbed to the highest place and looked west of the mountain pass, which was condescending, and could see the extreme distance.

He saw that on the halfway slope more than ten miles to the west, there were many tents set up in dense layers, and he could not count the number of them, and the figures entering and exiting from them were as small as a swarm of ants.

"In the early hours of this morning, we heard a commotion coming from the direction of the camp at the foot of the mountain, which we would not have heard during the day. We saw the Hu people scurrying about, many of the tents were on fire, and a caravan of horses was rushing into the desert to the west at daybreak. ”

Guo Xiaoke looked closely, and could still see that the tents on the periphery were in disarray, and it seemed that someone was repairing them.

The edict guessed that the small team of sneak horses was Gao Jun's shepherd team, because it looked like there were only three hundred people. Guo Xiaoke nodded secretly, agreeing with the opinion of the edict, in the territory of the Yibi Lu Division, only Gao Jun could attack them.

It took six or seven hours for Guo Dudu to arrive here non-stop from the Qisi River, and after such a long journey, Gao Jun's herding team rushed over from Qinghai County, and he would definitely not have any interference like himself.

They were on someone's territory, and they couldn't move during the day, so it was fast enough to get here in two days and give the enemy a fruitful surprise attack.

Gao Minben was a little dazed, and when he heard Guo Zhizhao's words, he instantly sobered up, and he asked Guo Zhizhao, "Do you see that they still have three hundred people?" ”

Guo waited, "Or I'm not sure, because it's too far away." But those of us who have nothing to do when we have nothing to do like to run to the top of this place and stare at those tents to practice our eyesight. According to the entry and exit of the people, each person counts the number of people in the other. Everyone counted them, but they didn't say it right away, and in the end, they were compared together, and the approximate number of enemy troops came out. ”

The governor asked, "How many?" ”

Guo said, "Seventy and a half out of ten people think that the other party is about 4,000 people. Based on this comparison, he said, we judged that the raiding horse team was about 300 men.

The governor said, "Why do I think those men are less than four thousand?" ”

Guo said, "At the moment, it is insufficient, it is estimated that one of the people lost in the early morning attack, and thousands of people chased them to the desert to the west." ”

Guo Xiaoke listened to the affirmation of the edict, and decided that Gao Jun's three hundred people had not lost anything in these days, and he was relieved.

However, the governor of a state and the head of the military and political affairs were a little laughable and laughable when he had no eyes on the situation of the Tianshan Mu under his rule, but he had to rely on this way of hearsay and speculation to obtain information.

However, the mood of the governor has never been so good. Guo Zhizhao was established from Luntai County, and he had not yet gone down the mountain pass, so when he heard the news, he asked why he wanted to take the name Luntai.

Guo Dudu said that this has a lot to do. In ancient times, this place was called "Luntou", the country of Benluntou. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was destroyed by Li Guangli, the general of the second division, and set up an envoy to Tuntian here. In his later years, Emperor Wu issued the Luntai in the "Luntai Guilty Edict" here.

Guo Dudu said that we set up Luntai County to follow in the footsteps of our predecessors.

After inspecting the Alashankou, Guo Xiaoke was anxious to return to Yanqi, Guo Zhizhao was not there, and there could not be no one there for a long time. Gao Min followed the governor down the mountain.

In the evening of that day, Gao Min broke up with Guo Xiaoke in Ranch Village. In the past two days, Gao Min's bones were about to disperse, and when he passed by Gao Jun's door, he saw that the fifth uncle and other drivers were already at home, so he stepped in. (To be continued.) )
