Chapter 2 The Kouma River

"Brother Tian, I also wonder, it seems that this task shouldn't be done by us, we are the general's guard battalion, as long as we are responsible for the general's safety, when will we be in charge of catching spies?" Trouble, the two dogs are obviously on Wang Hu's side, and they don't understand this mission very well.

And not only him, but everyone didn't understand, this was the first time they had such a mission since they became guards.

"There are Wei spies in Luoyan Valley, you take someone to check it out, you should gain something." Recalling what the general said to himself, and the confused look in his eyes, Chu Tian actually didn't understand why he let himself come this time.

Wei is a big country that coexists with Great Qin and Chu, the Three Kingdoms are established, and there are some small countries around, but the strength of the small countries is only one-tenth of the Three Kingdoms, and they rely on the three major countries to survive.

These countries, large and small, make up the world, and they don't know what else lies further afield.

Because no one can hit there, no one can call there, and even whether there is anyone over there is a question.

"The general naturally has his deep meaning in doing this, we just have to do it, but everyone should be careful, this mission must not be simple." Chu Tian didn't think too much about it, because as long as he caught those spies, everything would be clear.

After listening to Chu Tian's words, everyone's faces were solemn, as a member of the guard battalion, the first lesson they learned was not to be careless.

As long as you are careless, it is a small matter if you die yourself, and if you cause the death of your companion, it will be unforgivable.

After half a pillar of incense, they were already about to leave the valley, but they didn't even see the shadow of the spies, and seeing this, Chu Tian also waved his hand, and everyone stopped when they saw this.

Chu Tian frowned slightly, he didn't know what he was thinking, and the rest of the people didn't bother, they scattered one by one to surround Chu Tian in the center, with their horses' heads facing outward, looking around vigilantly, and waiting for them.

After half a cup of tea, Chu Tian stopped thinking and said softly.

"To the Shikma River"

Hearing Chu Tian's words, no one made a sound, and all of them followed behind Chu Tian.

As soldiers, they will order the soldiers to act, just obey the order, don't look at Chu Tian usually giggling with them, but in this kind of matter, they know that Chu Tian is more serious than anyone else.

If anyone dares to neglect their duties and cause the mission to fail, then he has no mercy to tell.

。。。。。。

Xiama River is a river land located in the east of Luoyan Valley, but it was in the past, and now it is just a yellow sand land, and there is no one to live.

In the past, although the Xiama River was not a blessed land, there was also a meadow with a pool of water in the middle, which was an excellent place for passers-by to rest and feed the horses.

Ten years ago, however, as the water dried up and the meadows withered, the Yama River is now a dead place, with no life at all.

No pedestrians ever stopped there, because it was a waste of time, and all that awaited them was dryness and dead silence.

And now the reason why Chu Tian thought of Xiamachuan was a shocking event that happened four years ago, which changed the entire Great Qin and the situation between the three major powers.

Four years ago, in order to improve relations with the Chu State, Daqin decided to marry the current princess to the crown prince of the Chu State in order to maintain the harmony between the countries.

Originally, the marriage of the country was a matter that was beneficial to both the country and the people.

But in the Valley of the Wild Goose, where 200,000 bones were buried.

The princess's team was ambushed by unknown people, and the entire team was wiped out, and no one survived, and even the princess died tragically under the sword.

At this time, Daqin and Chu were shocked, they didn't expect that someone would dare to kill the princess of Heqin so openly.

And there is almost no need to investigate at all, both countries believe that Wei did it, because besides Wei, who else has the courage and strength to do so.

You must know that when the princess got married, in addition to the 3,000 Royal Forest Army, there were also dragon guards accompanying her.

The Imperial Forest Army is the emperor's personal guard, the guard of the inner courtyard of the palace, as the emperor's army, this combat effectiveness is naturally incomparable, with one as ten, it is not a problem at all, three thousand people are enough to treat as ten thousand.

And if the Imperial Forest Army is the most powerful team on the emperor's surface, then the Dragon Guard is an invincible force in the emperor's shadows.

As the most mysterious yamen of Great Qin, the Dragon Guard is also the top dark department of Great Qin.

The Dragon Guard was established at the time of the founding of the Great Qin Dynasty, when the three kingdoms were in constant dispute, not only the collision between the armies on the surface, but also the competition between each other secretly.

The spies of the two countries continued to pour into the capital to assassinate officials, which made people panic, and even the court dared to go out with a dozen or so guards.

It can be said that everyone is in danger, so the emperor ordered the establishment of a dragon guard with a wave of his hand to deal with those spies.

Although at the beginning, the ability of the dragon guards was not as good as those spies from other countries, and they were at a disadvantage in the confrontation with each other.

But with the accumulation of experience, the dragon guard has gradually grown, and now it can be said to be a top existence.

In particular, the Eight Thousand Households of the Dragon Guardian can be said to be the leader among the spies, the eight commanders under the Dragon Guard, and the core of the Dragon Guard.

The eight people are not only masters of investigation, tracking, and assassination, but also all of them are highly skilled and extraordinary.

In their hands, the dragon guards are already beyond the existence of the dark yamen of the two countries, and no spies dare to infiltrate the capital.

Because they know it's just death.

In addition to guarding against the infiltration of spies from other countries, the Dragon Guard also has the responsibility of monitoring hundreds of officials and inspecting various states and counties.

It can be said that many officials were pulled down by the dragon guards who found evidence of guilt.

There are even some prisoners who do not confess will be sent to the dragon guards, and at most half a day, no matter how tight their mouths will be pried open, so the officials are also afraid of the dragon guards.

But everything was wiped out four years ago, in order to protect the princess from marrying and promoting friendship between the two countries, the stakes were very high, and the emperor actually ordered the dragon guard eight thousand households to escort together.

This is also the first time that the eight thousand households have gone out together, which shows that the emperor attaches great importance to this harmony, but who knows that there is no return, all of them are dead, and they all died in Luoyan Valley.

Compared with the death of the princess, the news of the death of the eight thousand households may be even more shocking.

It's just that this news is naturally happy and sad for everyone, happy that there is no need to be deterred by the dragon guard, and worrying is that they are afraid that other countries will infiltrate the capital.

Fortunately, after that, the Dragon Guard was quickly reorganized and a new four commanders were established, which could be regarded as temporarily stabilizing the turmoil of the government and the opposition.

As soon as this incident came out, Great Qin and Chu immediately announced an alliance and declared war on Wei, but the declaration of war was a declaration of war, but the fight did not start.

Because the strength of Wei is not weaker than that of Great Qin, and even stronger, if it were not for the internal troubles of Wei, the War of the Three Kingdoms would never have ended here, and it is estimated that it would have to continue to be fought.

Great Qin's lack of strength naturally can't choose a dead end to start a war first, and although Chu State and Great Qin are married, but the princess has not arrived, they naturally have no intention of going to war.

Even if Great Qin were at war with Wei, it was not certain who they would do to them.
