After Jing Ran and Li You defeated the cavalry led by the little prince of Xirong, they parted ways, and Jing Ran and his party continued to move towards the Hexi region of Dachu according to the route agreed with Daniel Zhang and others. After traveling like this for three days, they finally came to Xinglong Gorge at the junction of Qin and Chu.

Jing Ran had seen this place on his grandfather's marching map, but why was it called Xinglong Gorge? According to my grandfather's words, legend has it that the ancestors of the Son of Heaven in Zhongzhou walked out of the Fengjiang River and traveled a long way along the way.

And at this time, six immortals descended from the sky, stretched out their hands to paint, pointed out the direction of progress for this group of people who were lost in the gale, and then the Son of Heaven in Zhongzhou controlled the world, and also carried out a ceremony to worship the heavens here, thanks to the guidance of the gods in that year, and then renamed this place Xinglong Gorge, and Fengjiang together was called the Longxing place of the Son of Heaven in Zhongzhou.

And now here, in addition to the ruins of the sacrificial platform left by the Son of Heaven in Zhongzhou, it is the broken soil that the war horse has stepped on. Who can encounter the changes in this world?

Thinking of this, Jing Ran dismounted first and walked up to the ruins of the sacrificial rooftop, and the soldiers of the Xiaocai guards below were all staring wide-eyed, not knowing what their king was going to do.

Jing Ran saw that they were puzzled, so he told them the story that his grandfather had said, and the group of people were fascinated by it.

"I waited for the ninth death in the Qin State this time, although I didn't see the help of the gods sent by God, but we got out of the predicament the same, do you know why?"

The sergeants below scratched their heads and couldn't think of a reason, but as soon as Jing Ran changed his words, he said to them solemnly:

"Because we ourselves are the heavens!"

Claiming to be the sky, I am afraid that Emperor Mingguang will not dare to say this kind of thing, and the soldiers below are so frightened that they kneel, boasting of the sky, you are the king of Chu, I and other small soldiers, where do you dare. Each of them was in awe of the heavens, and did not dare to speak in the slightest.

At this time, Jing Ran said again: "There are so many injustices in this world, why can't God see this?" The people of the world are displaced because of the chaos in the world, and there is geometry! ”

Jing Ran quietly looked at the sergeants below, their eyes showed a trace of sadness, yes, when the war was not opened, they were all at home with wives and children hot kang, and their lives may not be as colorful as they are now, but at least, they will be with their families, but now how many people are buried in a foreign land.

"Poor and uncertain riverside bones, like a person in a spring boudoir dream."

These are troubled times.

Jing Ran looked at them and said: "If there is really a heaven and a god, how can this broken Zhongzhou have long been unified by Emperor Mingguang, King Zhaoxiang of Great Qin, and King Zhaowu of Great Zhao, where can it be my turn to run around here and flee?" ”

"This world is made up of people, and you are my world!"

As he spoke, he bowed deeply to the soldiers of the Horse Guards who lived and died with him.

"Today, the widow represents the Great Chu State, and here he borrows the sacrificial platform of the Son of Heaven in Zhongzhou, and sacrifices the world here!"

As he spoke, he drew the sword at his waist and pointed it at the sky:

"The husband is only the sacrifice of the world, the minister is great Chu Guoran, worship the sky! Chen recalls Zhongzhou Tianzichang, born in Fengjiang and prosperous in Longxing. And the achievement of the world's business. Today, the minister is out of the Fengjiang River, crosses the dragon xing, cherishes the ambition of the world, does not ask the heavens to pity the ministers, but wishes to think about the difficulties of the people in the world, and the ministers will thank them again. ”

"Zhongzhou millennium, strong and strong, Kecheng prosperous, Zai Ning Zhenxiang. May God promote virtue, so that the ministers will endure all dangers and be strong, and become a great cause and prosperous! ”

"Minister, Zhongzhou Da Churan, I am willing to appoint the world and establish an indestructible foundation! Minister, cut the soil into incense, hold the sword as an oath! ”

As he spoke, he knelt down, and all the cavalry guards also worshiped the heavens, praying for an early end to the war.

Jing Ran stood up after making an oath, and looked back, these soldiers who followed him burst into tears, and their lives were also tied to their hopes.

After resting for a while, they rode on their horses, and walked forward for half an hour, and they arrived at their motherland.

"Let's go, I'll take everyone home!"

"Good!"

The group hurried up and rushed towards the land west of the river in the Great Chu State.

At this time, Daniel Zhang and the others had already arrived in Hexi City, and they had already borrowed a thousand sergeants from General Jiang Yue, waiting for Jing Ran to return and move to Jinyang County.

"Have all the scouts been sent out?"

Daniel Zhang asked nervously.

"Back to the general, they have already been sent out in three waves, but there is no news yet."

Daniel Zhang is now the chief general of more than 1,000 people, and after Jiang Yue learned about Daniel Zhang and Jing Ran all the way, he felt that Daniel Zhang was loyal and brave, so he made him a general of Jinyang County, led a thousand troops, and garrisoned Hexi City. The current Daniel Zhang is no longer the reckless soldier leader at that time, and now he has more wisdom that a general should have.

"No, I'm going out of the city to pick up the king myself!"

As he spoke, he picked up this thing and went out of the camp. It was at this time that the scout came with the news:

"Report to the general, I found the king and his party outside Longxing Gorge, and now they are coming quickly."

"Good! Prepare your horses, and I'll go and meet the king. ”

Daniel Zhang said excitedly, but at this time, the scout said:

"But general, I also found more than a thousand Chu troops outside Longxing Gorge."

"What! Where did the Chu army come from? Now the entire Hexi is our Jinyang County has a Chu army, and the rest are Qin and Zhao's army, hurry, immediately order all the soldiers and set off with me! ”

Daniel Zhang felt strange, because Jiang Yue meant to let him go to meet Jing Ran, and he himself wanted to protect Jinyang County and prevent Northern Chu from invading, but now that there were more than a thousand Chu troops, the development of things made him a little blind.

"By the way, send someone to Jinyang to figure it out."

After speaking, he took five hundred cavalry out of the camp and went straight to the direction where Jing Ran was.

This Chu army that came without telling was actually sent by Jingyu of Northern Chu, and their group did not find it after looking for most of the circle in Qin, but they unexpectedly found the place where Jingyu and Xirong fought, when they arrived, the blood stains on the ground were still clearly visible, so they chased all the way according to the traces of the battle, but unfortunately, Jingyu took the Longxing Gorge in the north, and the Northern Chu army took the road in the direction of the abandoned city in the south, although the two places were not far away, but Jing Ran was lucky to avoid the encirclement and interception of the Northern Chu army, But when Jing Ran and his party just came out of the canyon, they were discovered by the scouts of Northern Chu, so the Northern Chu army also hurried to Jing Ran.

Now Jing Ran is in the middle, Daniel Zhang and the Northern Chu army on both sides are in a hurry, whoever arrives first can take Jing Ran away, and Jing Ran's fate will be decided in such a game.

But Jing Ran was walking towards Hexi City after all, so he met Daniel Zhang soon after.

"General Zhang, how is it."

actually quipped: "During this time, I have gained a lot of weight." ”

Daniel Zhang smiled, his face turned pale: "Great king, go quickly, our scouts have already worn the news, and the Northern Chu army is coming quickly on our flank, and there are a thousand people!" ’

As soon as Daniel Zhang spoke, the sergeants with Jing Ran all smiled bitterly and shook their heads, obviously just out of the tiger's den, and now they are being chased by wolves to run, along the way, they have really seen a lot.

Daniel Zhang saw them smile bitterly and did not understand their meaning, but the matter was urgent, and there was no way to talk about the past, as long as they arrived in Hexi City, could these more than a thousand Northern Chu troops still fly in?

"King, let's go."

"Hmm."

Along the way, Jing Ran is understanding the local terrain, where there are mountains, where there is water, and after a while, he was told by Daniel Zhang, in the past few days, in order to make Hexi City better protected, Daniel Zhang has personally ridden a horse throughout the entire Hexi City area, the mountains and rivers here, he is now very familiar.

Just when Daniel Zhang introduced, Jing Ran stopped his horse and greeted Daniel Zhang: "General Zhang, give me the public opinion." ”

Daniel Zhang was puzzled, but still gave the picture to Jing Ran, who pointed to a valley thirty miles away from Hexi City and said, "What is the name of this place?" ”

Daniel Zhang looked at the public map, "Great King, this place is an ordinary valley, there are a lot of plants and trees in it, and I don't know the specific name, anyway, except for the good scenery in this place, there are basically no people going to the green." ”

"You say, if we call those people here......"

Jing Ran looked at Daniel Zhang with a smile, and Daniel Zhang suddenly realized: "The king wants to leave these thousand people." ”

"Yes, but we can't kill everyone, we need our own soldiers now."

Jing Ran said his plan, led the pursuit of a thousand Northern Chu troops into the valley here, and then, after Daniel Zhang led a hundred people to pretend to be broken, he led the rest of the people to raise more flags on the mountain, pretending to set fire to the mountain, and then forced this army to surrender, the first thing he had to do was to establish a force that he could control, now he, no one would really believe it, even if Jiang Yue took him in, although Jiang Yue said that he supported himself, but only gave Daniel Zhang a thousand people, and he led the army to garrison Jinyang, Even if there is a military emergency, this is not a reason for him not to come to see Jing Ran.

Who can say anything about this world?

Only driven by interests, it is possible that he will help you, but when he really comes, as a courtier of Chu State, will Jiang Yue really hand over the army in his hand to Jing Ran?

Therefore, it is imperative to build up your own army.

Of course, Daniel Zhang knew Jing Ran's intentions, after experiencing so many things, Jing Ran was no longer the simple young king, and now he seemed to be in his thirties, and the city government was much deeper.

"Obedience to the king."

Daniel Zhang listened to the order: "Then the king will go and prepare first, and I will bring someone to lure them over?" ”

Daniel Zhang asked.

"Don't worry, they're a pack of wolves, how could they not smell such a big piece of bloody flesh as me?"

Jing Ran smiled: "All go to the valley!" ”

After speaking, he took the lead in riding away, and then it was up to the wolf who followed him to see if he had a good nose.
