At the end of April, the end of spring will go, the grass leaves are tender and green to deep, a fast ride from the west galloping, crossing the horse city into Shanggu County, the person who came has short blond hair, a full beard, ragged clothes, tall and sturdy, fair skin, but there are many scars, so that the business travelers, pedestrians are quite curious, some people follow each other galloping from the north gate, when the other party is stopped by the soldiers, the man and the horse have reached the point of exhaustion.

The war horse fell, and the weak figure also fell from above, rolling a few times, and several guards ran over to set each other up, and the big man with golden hair was extremely weak, and opened his lips slightly.

“…… Report...... Gongsun ...... Yes...... There is an army...... From the West...... Come ......"

The soldiers looked at each other, and they couldn't imagine that this foreign tribe who was not like the grassland and the people of the Western Regions could speak Chinese, but the other party's words were too awkward, and they couldn't understand what it meant.

"What to do? sent to the post house, or just find a place to lose it, let him fend for himself. ”

“…… It's feasible, our assassin doesn't like foreigners, and Shangguan shouldn't punish us and others. ”

Someone shook his head: "This person can speak Chinese, it looks like he has something urgent to report, I just heard him say Gongsun...... It doesn't have an old ...... with the history of thorns."

At this time, many people around the city gate stopped, the probe looked at this side, and blocked the road for a while, and at the end of the street in the city, a team of soldiers patrolled over, saw the situation here, tightened the spear, forced to break through the crowd, and since the last time he made meritorious service against the water, he was transferred to the gate to supervise the thief Cao, supervising the arrest and patrol of the city.

"Bring this person back first, and I'll report to Dongfang Juncheng."

"Yes!" The soldiers behind him took the weak foreign man away, and he suddenly rejoiced in his heart: "...... Earlier, I heard that there was a Western team of dozens of people under the command of Assassin Shi, so it must be ...... at this time."

Then, he took the person away with the sword, and not long after, Dongfang Sheng and Li Ru saw this person, and after asking the reason, their faces were furrowed.

"Brother Wen You sent someone to pick up the dozens of people into the city, and went to the mansion to inform his wife first...... Ahem...... Her student is back. Dongfang Sheng said this, and asked the people below to take the big man to rest, and then walked to the door of the mansion with Li Ru and got into the carriage separately.

……

At the same moment, dozens of miles above Upper Valley County, Stephanie and Gerald took the only fifty people under their command, stopped for a short time to rest, the rough food was like iron in the mouth and crushed hard, accompanied by clear water and swallowed hard, she sat on a white rock, stretched out two round and slender legs, and looked at the silhouette of the big city looming in front of her.

Silent and resolute.

I remembered the mood when I left the cottage with my brother a year ago and set foot in Chang'an with difficulty to find rescuers, but now I walked back and forth in this country, and came to the front of the man.

It was a wolf-like man, even though she was not afraid of killing, she trembled a little when she saw each other several times.

"That grandson is very powerful...... Gerald walked over, put the big sword at his feet, and sat down cross-legged, "Stephanie, my sister, when you pass, Gongsun will be annoyed...... We have brought calamity to the East, and we will kindle war here. ”

Next to her, the woman stood up and wiped the food scraps from the corner of her mouth, looking in the direction of Kamiya-gun, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Brother...... No matter how war-torn the East is, it is also very powerful, as long as Gongsun can drag us to this pursuer, we can return to our hometown, raise the banner of resistance, and build our own homeland like Gongsun. ”

The dry blonde hair stroked in the wind, she took a deep breath, led the war horse and turned over, looking at the big man who slowly got up over there: "What's more, his wife is my teacher, and the teacher is a very gentle woman, she shouldn't blame us." ”

A group of dozens of people set off with such thoughts, and soon saw Li Ru who greeted them, and Cai Yan, who was far away in the Gongsun Mansion in the city, did not feel happy because the so-called students had returned, and the April wind blew through the garden with a slight warmth, and the bright colors were gradually blooming.

The woman fell asleep, handed it to the nurse next to her to take her to rest, turned around and walked slowly to the pavilion, sat down, looked at the one-armed scholar opposite, frowned slightly, and stroked the strings with her fingertips and made a "zheng" sound, "In the ninth year of Yongyuan, Ban Dingyuan sent Shi Ganying to Daqin (Rome), but unfortunately he returned in the middle of the road, I didn't expect that my student was chased and killed by a Daqin army to Handi, and it seems that Stephanie's identity is not so simple." ”

"Now the 30,000 soldiers under the command of the leader are conquering Yunzhong, Dingyang and other counties, and they are worried that they will collide, and my wife also knows that these arrogant soldiers under the command of the leader are not afraid of heaven and earth, and when the time comes, it will delay the business."

Cai Yan's eyes were like a warm breeze, and then he shook his head and said softly: "...... I am worried that this Great Qin army will sacrifice butcher knives to the people of Han China, after all, they have traveled far away, they must need supplies, and they are unable to understand words, it is easy to cause killing, if this is the way to attack Yunzhong, Zhang Yang and the two will inevitably wave their troops to meet them, both of them are responsible for defending the land, especially Zhang Yang, he is from Yunzhong County......"

"There are too many variables...... Dongfang Sheng pressed his temples: "I have average qualifications, and I can't think of what will happen next." ”

Cai Yan got up and walked outside, quietly looking up at the clouds floating in the sky, if it was possible, I would like to hope that everything is safe over there, but things are thousands of miles away, and the information is not clear, so she can't predict whether there will be bad news coming back next.

"I hope my husband can come back soon."

Just behind her, far away from the courtyard gate, the vision extended along the street, and Stephanie and the others, who felt that they had returned to the world, finally appeared in the field of vision of the people in the city, and passed in the direction of the mansion from afar.

********************************************

At the end of spring and the beginning of summer, thunder sounded in the distance of the sky and clouds.

It was only after the construction of Juyong Pass that the foundation was raised in the past two months, and on the stretching wooden frame, craftsmen wielded stone hammers and sweated like rain, and stationed a single army and horses in front of Jundu Mountain for several miles, supervising the loading of rocks mined from the foot of the mountain onto carts and transportation to the pass.

The direction beyond the reach of his eyes, the scroll of the banner hunting, Yuan Shao's brother-in-law Liu Fu was planning something in full swing in the camp, he stepped on the long case with one foot, picked up the cloth and dried the handwriting, and showed a lewd smile on his emaciated mustache.

"One more sneak attack, this time I'll throw rocks from above and kill you thieves."

Subsequently, the cloth silk with embarrassing handwriting was handed over to the guards at will, and the order was passed on.

……

At the same time, Gongsun Zhi, who went south from the west of Liucheng, took the Xianbei cavalry and wolf cavalry, and nearly 10,000 cavalry crossed Yuyang and reached the eastern side of the military capital.

"Pass the news to General Shan, and kill this Liu Fu by attacking back and forth." He commanded softly.

The eagle flew into the sky.
