Chapter 189: A Glimmer of Heaven
There are many incredible landforms in the world, and a glimmer of heaven is undoubtedly the best of them.
It is like a huge mountain split in half by a sharp sword, the mountain does not cross, the stone does not rot, and only a gap is left in the middle.
And the first line of heaven that Qi Guoyuan said is far more spectacular than the tourist attractions of later generations.
Due to the perennial rain, the walls on both sides are smooth and smooth, and the road under your feet is very smooth.
The exterior is covered by two staggered loess mounds, and the inside is dark, and you can only see the blue sky like a thin line above.
Seeing this scene, four big words popped up in Yang Shuang's heart: Devilish workmanship!
What is thrilling is that the shadows of unknown vegetation above, not only one or two highly venomous snakes fall from time to time, but also mixed with a lot of earth and rocks.
These earth and stones rolled down the flat ground, condensed into the two mounds on the outside, maybe ten years, maybe half a year, and no one could find this magical place again.
As Qi Guoyuan said, the first line of heaven is not spacious, even if you want to hold up the battle shield, you can only place it vertically and obliquely.
"Fast pass! Run! ”
The inexplicable crisis in Yang Shuang's heart popped up again, and he couldn't help but urge the team that had entered the front line to speed up.
It's a pity that the sword and shield soldiers' war horses need to be unarmoured, and the war horses ridden by horse thieves also need to be moved down.
Time flies and the sky gets darker.
"Report!"
The sentinel sent out to investigate returned quickly, and Yang Shuang's heart beat violently.
"Report, General, fifty miles to the west, I found traces of a large number of soldiers and horses, and I suspect that it is the five thousand enemy troops that General Qi said!"
Really!
The other Tuyuhun army, which is hurrying westward, will definitely not surprise its own side, but ambush it on the spot!
But that's not the danger he had in mind!
Gadda Gada!
After a rush of horses' hoofs, another sentry returned.
"Report! General, a large number of Turkic iron horsemen appeared in the north, countless, and it seemed that they were ready to pour into the Bison Gully along the Great Black Ditch, and they were only fifty miles away from the 20,000 main forces of Tuyuhun! ”
"How is that possible?!" Yang Shuang exclaimed in disbelief, "Zhangye City is broken? ”
The sentry rider waved his hand, "No trace of our army has been found!" ”
"Are you kidding with Lao Tzu?" Yang Shuang was a little puzzled.
"General, looking at the direction they are heading, it looks like they want to intercept us!" The sentry rider's eyes were also a little confused.
"Intercept us?" Yang Shuang was even more confused, and immediately thought of something, "Have you ever seen the flag clearly?" ”
"The sky is dark, but the subordinates seem to be near, and they vaguely see a familiar wolf-headed banner, which seems to be the central Apo Khan!"
Yang Shuang's brain was a little down.
Awa?
That guy was captured alive once, is this time he impatient to live again, ready to seek death?
However, Yang Shuang didn't have time to think about this, the other party was fifty miles away from the Tuyuhun army, which meant that in half an hour, he would arrive at Bison Gou!
Although the sky is dark, it is not easy to find this place, but the traces left by thousands of people and horses, unless they are blind, or they can be traced with a torch!
"Pile up the baggage at the entrance of the passage, wait for the large army to pass, and set it on fire!"
Fire attracts enemies, but it can also stop them!
After giving the order, Yang Shuang and his husband were guarding the entrance, watching a famous soldier walk into the sky.
Thundered!
The horse's hooves galloped, like war drums, and thunderous shocks resounded on both sides of the big black ditch, and countless men dressed in woolen fabrics rushed forward with their heads.
"Great Khan, is this information true? Let's desperately break through the Sui army's defense line, if we can't capture that bald head alive, I'm afraid that 50,000 warriors will die here! ”
Central Apo Khan gritted his teeth, "No matter what the cost, we must capture that damn guy alive and save the princess!" Amazing !! ”
Thinking of this, Ah Po almost burst into tears, and sent countless dead soldiers, loyal slaves, and scouts to visit Dunhuang, Yangguan, Yumen, and even any corner of the abandoned ancient city of Hecang, but he didn't find the shadow of Princess Qianjin.
was originally released by the Sui Emperor, but he was also grateful to Dai De, and was ready to lead the whole clan to the Central Plains, herding horses in the north of Dunhuang.
But the old boy of the Great Khan of the East, Sha Boluo, came to the door in person with an army of 300,000 people, and opened his mouth to ask: Where is my daughter-in-law?
Nest grass!
He almost said it no less than a thousand times, Princess Qianjin was captured by the Sui army, but Sha Bo didn't believe it!
not only imprisoned his entire clan, but also demanded the return of the woman who had not seen anyone alive and dead within three months.
In search of the bald head, Apo was almost so tired that he vomited blood.
Looking around Dunhuang, how can anyone shave his head? (When entering the Central Plains, Yang Shuang had grown long hair and beard in order to disguise.) )
Although I heard that the big brother in the west was defeated by the bald head, Apo did not dare to enter the Western Regions at all.
He didn't believe that the bald head who defeated the 300,000-strong army of the Western Turks was the bald head who captured himself and the princess alive!
Fortunately, the letter was sent to the details buried in the Guanlong area, and a bald figure was found!
And also pass the portrait and identity information of the bald head to the savannah.
Yang Shuang, Yumen Guan Cheng, General Fubo, fought a decisive battle against King Shanshan with 2,000 soldiers and horses, defeated first and then won, and then fought a decisive battle against Datou Khan in the west with 10,000 people, slaughtered 10,000 people, and defeated an army of 300,000!
Looking at the familiar face, Apo was almost scared.
Really a person?
How did the princess get it back?
When he was still worried, there was an urgent report that Yang Shuang led five hundred soldiers and horses to go first, go to Longmen Canyon, and prepare to return to Yumen Pass!
What a godsend!
Ah Po almost cried excitedly, looked up to the sky and wailed, and hurriedly contacted Tuyuhun, preparing to intercept and kill a bald head who robbed someone else's daughter-in-law.
"Speed up, it is estimated that Murong Yong has already intercepted that beast in the bison ditch!"
Tuyuhun had already rewarded the map, and as a return gift, Apo paid 10,000 cattle and sheep.
Soon.
When the Turkic front army arrived at the place where it was intercepted by the boulder, the people dragged the horses, cut the axes, and opened the bison ditch in less than half an hour.
And Murong Yong also rushed to meet him.
The two sides are not without intersection, the Western Turks had close contacts with Tuyuhun when they controlled the Western Regions, and the Tuyuhun royal family also came from the Hu tribe, otherwise how could they be called Khan?
"I've seen Apo Khan!" Murong Yong and his brother Murong Bin stepped forward to salute, the latter was wrapped in a bandage around his waist and abdomen, faintly revealing a trace of blood, but his breath was calm, not at all like a seriously injured person.
Apo was concerned about the princess, but he greeted him in a hurry, and asked urgently, "Where is the bald head?" ”
"There was a bloody battle in the afternoon, and I have already rushed to the west, but with my third brother here, I think he should be intercepted at the other end of the canyon!"
"Oh? Murong Fu Yunxian's nephew is also here? God help me! Apo was about to wave his troops forward, but he was stunned to find that the canyon was only thirty meters, and it was not a matter of time or means to pass through.
And at this moment, the west suddenly burst into flames, reflecting half of the canyon red.
"Kill !!"
The shouts that followed made the three people who were gathered together slightly stunned.
"It's a fight!"
"Hurry!"
Apo is a little impatient, there is no way, the whole family is slightly held in the hands of the sand bowl, if you can't get back the princess, it is estimated that all the heads will fall to the ground!
