In the air, there was a faint heart-rending scream.

The broken neck dripping with blood swayed, the blood flowed all the way, and the dilapidated steps rushed down the inner city wall frantically, and ran into the street, the blue sky was already lit up at this time, and the black pillar of smoke was particularly conspicuous on the east gate. After crossing a street, countless panicked figures crowded the street and ran towards this direction.

The Xiliang army was originally full of animal nature, and now broke through the east gate of Chang'an, more than 100,000 people rushed to the inside like crazy, like a tide sweeping every street and alley, crashing into the shops and snatching valuable property, if the master family blocked, he would probably be stabbed to death on the ground, and the other part of the soldiers smashed open the people's house, if there was a woman who could see it, she would be insulted, and her naked body was chased or dragged into the house on the street, and the fire around became more violent with the wind.

Han Long was walking through the alleys, and when he was on the city wall, he heard that the man known as Wen Hou was withdrawing from the north gate with his soldiers and horses, presumably the city gate over there was not closed, and it was best to leave while the Xiliang army had not yet controlled the other three gates.

"Let me go...... Help me...... I beg you to spare me... Ahhhh......hh

The figure with his head ran through the nearby alley, and at a glance, he saw two Xiliang soldiers pressing a woman to the ground and tearing off her clothes.

However, he stopped, turned back, lowered his head and walked quickly, over there, a soldier was excitedly tearing his dress, and the other was helping to hold down his hands and feet, and when he noticed someone coming, he raised his face for a moment-

Here, under the cuffs, his right hand shrank and stretched, drew a dagger and slashed it on the other party's neck, and the blood line suddenly spurted out, the man screamed 'ah', covered his neck and fell, and the companion who was tearing heard the movement and turned around, facing a big foot in the face.

Han Long pounced and stabbed the man in the chest, turned his head and yelled at the woman: "Run, find a place to hide!" ”

Immediately, he got up and ran wildly with his legs frantically, and the woman who was already frightened was crying loudly with her tattered dress covering the exposed parts and asking him to escape from the city with her, and trotted closely behind, and a team of Xiliang patrol soldiers who came over on the side of the street were attracted by the shout, and when they saw Han Long holding a human head in his hand, they chased after him.

In the crowd, an arrow suddenly came, killing a soldier who rushed to the front, and the figure with the bow beckoned to Han Long, who was hurrying over: "Follow me!" ”

Casually, another arrow was shot at the thigh of the woman who was crying and screaming after them, and the Xiliang soldiers who chased after her immediately arrested her.

The two people who escaped here hurriedly followed a large number of people out of the north gate and fled towards the wilderness, and a cavalry from afar came from the side, saw the two of them, and hurriedly rushed to the front, and someone would lead two horses to them.

"Got the head?" Hua Xiong arrived with the Xiliang army, but he was wandering in the distance.

Han Long, who turned on the horseback, lifted the head, nodded there, and then rubbed his beard and laughed: "It's him, I met in Luoyang at the beginning, now let's hurry up and go to the north bank of the Wei River, where we will meet people, hahaha...... This time, we have made a great contribution, and we will hand it over to the people below to deal with, and it will be rotten if we save it. ”

"......No," the Assassin wrapped the head in a cloth and tied it around his waist, "I'll get it, I'll keep it myself." ”

"Stubborn donkey!"

As he spoke, the city behind him burst into flames, black smoke rushed into the sky, and the screams and cries gradually became smaller. Near dusk, Xu Rong, who was stationed in Zuo Fengyi, received the news that Chang'an had fallen and Wang Yun was dead.

The iron helmet was taken off by him, looking at the invisible city to the west, closing his eyes and not speaking for a long time, when Li Ru came over, he vaguely heard him sigh.

"Wen You, you say, Glory Ancestor, why is it so difficult......"

The autumn sunset turned warm yellow on the horizon, shining on the faces of the two, Li Ru looked at the warm yellow, did not speak, and at the end of the field of vision, a cavalry galloped from the direction of Chang'an.

Xu Rong also saw the team and turned his head: "...... The loyal soul can't do it, and you're homeless, and you're still calculating it in the end. ”

Li Ru's gloomy face finally had a little smile.

On the evening of the beginning of August, this team of nearly 40,000 people went all the way north, passing through Bingzhou, and then to the upper Taihang Mountains, and reaching the foothills of Zhongshan in Jizhou at the end of the month. At the same time, in Youzhou, hundreds of miles away in the north, after Liu Yu's death, Gongsun Chan began to consolidate his position and establish a defense line against Xianbei and Wuhuan, and all the power was in his hands.

After the autumn in the north, it rained heavily, one by one the horse's hooves stepped over, the puddles of water accumulated on the muddy road kept splashing, and there were four or five thousand cavalry galloping in the rain curtain, from the barren Youzhou all the way south, he did not have much interest in Youzhou affairs, even if he was the son of Gongsun Zhan, he could not lead a state, not to mention that there was a father with the title of General Fenwu. After killing Liu Yu, at that time, Gongsun Chan did not agree with him to stand in front for the time being for safety reasons, after all, Liu Yu was a member of the royal family and was quite famous, killing him was equivalent to tearing the face of the Han Dynasty head-on, and there would naturally be people who wanted to reward him with his head, and there would even be many.

Standing in front of you is tantamount to being exposed under the noses of these people.

After entering the territory of Zhongshan, Gongsun Zhi rode to the hillside, the leaves under the drizzle shook lightly layer by layer, and the water droplets fell on people's faces, Cao Chun rode over: "Chief, it is right for you to temporarily withdraw from Youzhou on this trip, first, for personal considerations, and secondly, General Gongsun and the generals under his command have a good time." After all, they fought to the death, but Liu Yu died at our hands, and the credit is the greatest, and they will still owe this love if they quit so cleanly. ”

Gongsun Zhi frowned: "Do you think I'm sorry for this?" ”

"Uh...... Isn't it? ”

He reined in the horse's head, shook off the rain, and laughed: "...... One state and one place, if you want to get it back at that time, I can't kill Liu Yu but I have the hatred in my heart, and now I think of this mountain....... "The whip was raised, pointing to the winding mountains in the mist," ...... The hundreds of thousands of people in Montenegro are our foundation, and when I come back, I have already taken Shanggu County from my father, and then I will move these Montenegrin people who are struggling in the mountains to move over, squeeze the Kirbineng tribe, and drive them out of the border of Youzhou, this is what we need to do at a critical juncture. ”

"I just don't know how Zhang Yan and Yuan Shao fought...... After returning to the mountains, Dongfang Sheng should have information there, I hope this guy is not dragged down by Yuan Benchu, if it is a military decadence, we have to help him, and we can't let Zhang Yan lose too quickly. ”

Gongsun Zhi probably said some thoughts in his heart, and then looked at the rain curtain that hung down: "...... But that is also a matter for the future, for the time being, it is better to bring the brothers back to the mountains to reunite with their families, to rest for some time, and those who have died, who have been seriously injured and disabled, and to properly settle their families. ”

"Then do you want to send someone back to the mountain to inform Madame and Sour Ru that they ......," Gao Sheng said.

"Naturally." Gongsun Zhi turned his head, and there were still thousands of horses walking behind, "...... The thousand horsemen who are to be taken from my father shall make room for them to sit down. On this trip, although some brothers died, they got a city to live in, an elite cavalry, and two ......" eyes swept over the two figures behind several people: "...... Good brothers! ”

Seeing everyone's eyes, he was a little embarrassed. Gao Sheng grinned crookedly and pointed at the big man with the axe: "There is also a general-"

"What will be ...... I'm a horse thief now......" Pan Feng first hung his head and muttered, and then seemed to have figured out something, "Horse thief... No..... don't you have a city...... Where there is a city, there are officials...... Grass...... I'm going to be a general again? ”

Hearing him talk to himself, everyone burst out laughing. After laughing like this for a while, the team set off again, all the way to the mountain, crossed the surrounding county towns, and the soldiers and horses in the city in the distance looked at them, then shrank back, and then turned back to the mountain, which was already close to home.

The vast water vapor fills the mountains, the big village located in the mountains seems quiet and mysterious, here the perennial thieves gather, on the mountainside, the mountain road can often see the figure of fast shuttle, most of the people outside do not dare to come here, occasionally only the small traders who are related to the bandits in the mountains bring some women's use, or the commonly used utensils at home to peddle, but they are not too valuable things.

There is a small attic in the position of the mountain behind the cottage, standing there alone, the women in the village can get close to the past, as for the men, they can't go over, even if they are in the past, they will be bombarded away by a large group of fierce women outside, most of these women are the women who played with Cao Shi that day, most of them are homeless, they are raised here, their life experience is quite desolate, the thieves in the village have also been warned, not allowed to bully them, if they see, bring the bride price to marry the door. The good ones have been picked out, and the rest are rather ugly and have weird and pungent temperaments.

In the attic, a plain white hand poked out of the window lattice, the raindrops under the eaves fell on the palm, and the woman in the house was plain white, with white flowers tied with paper in her hair bun, and her cheeks were much lighter. When cheers erupted from the cottage in the distance, her eyes flashed with surprise, and the corners of her mouth curled, and she laughed softly.

The horsemen who came in raised their heads, and under their wet hair, they also smiled.

The two looked at each other.

The surroundings seemed to freeze, and there were many different things in the eyes of the two of them.
