The night is like ink, and only the morning star in the sky is shining like a faint light.

At the foot of Helan Mountain, at this night when you can't see your fingers, there are already a group of people who have long been leading their war horses, quietly waiting for the sun to rise.

Bo Yalun wrapped himself in his armor and sighed softly, feeling a chill invade his body. But soon she used her internal force to dispel the chill in her body.

She suddenly remembered what Su Lang had said to herself, the time before dawn was always the darkest, but it couldn't stop the dawn from coming.

Maybe tomorrow, or a few days later, I can see Su Lang again, right? I hope he will listen to his advice and stay in the manor and never go anywhere. Otherwise, the army is overwhelming, and among the hundreds of thousands of people, how can I find him? What if......

Boyaron suddenly shivered, and didn't dare to think about it anymore. I prayed silently in my heart, "Su Lang, you must not have anything to do, you must wait until the arrival of the concubine." ”

She strongly asked to join the vanguard army this time, one was that she was worried about the first time the imperial brother went on the expedition; But more importantly, I don't worry about Su Ziheng. She was worried that if she didn't pay attention, Sujiazhuang would be beaten down by the generals of other tribes in Mengyuan.

Maybe others don't know, but how can she, who grew up in Mengyuan since she was a child, not know some of the conventions of Mengyuan's army, every time she hits a place, she will let the soldiers below loot on a large scale. In some big cities, they will even issue a bloody military order to slaughter the city for three days. In order to ensure that the morale of the army does not fall.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, look at the east, it is already white, and the sun is about to come out!"

Ji Xiaohan raised his arm, pointed in the direction of the east, and said to Bo Yalun in surprise.

Bo Yalun looked in the direction she was pointing, a silent smile bloomed on his face, "Dark Sixteen, this palace gave you a new name, do you still like it?" ”

Ji Xiaohan fell to the ground and kissed Bo Yalun's deerskin boots, "Thank you for the name, Your Royal Highness the Princess, Xiaohan will remember it in his heart, and he will not dare or forget it for the rest of his life." ”

She is very satisfied with her current name, you must know that the surname Ji has not only been used by the princess before, but also by her sister Dark Jiu. People from humble backgrounds like them, if they were not taken in by Her Royal Highness the Princess, they would probably become prostitutes, or grab food from stray wild dogs, it is not easy to survive, and where can they dare to have extravagant names and dislikes?

Bo Yalun stretched out his hand to help her up, and said with a smile: "As long as you are loyal in the future, this palace will naturally not treat you two sisters badly." Let's go! The sky is bright, and it's time for us to set off. ”

The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return once he is gone!

Bo Yalun seemed to vaguely see that his group of people was like Jing Ke who was stabbing Qin, about to embark on a road of no return, and no one knew how many people would fall on this road? But for the sake of the Mengyuan Empire, no matter how many people will fall on this road, they will not flinch in the slightest.

……

There is a bird road in Xidang Taibai, which can cross the top of Emei. The earth collapsed and the mountain destroyed the strong man to death, and then the ladder stone stacks were hooked together. There is a high standard of six dragons returning to the sun, and there is a return to the river with a wave and a reversal. The flight of the yellow crane is not yet passable, and the ape wants to spend his sorrow and climb. The green mud is a panpan, and a hundred steps and nine folds linger on the rocks. He sat on his back and sighed with his hands.

……

Eagle sorrow, a glimmer of sky!

This is a very dangerous road from the Moxi grassland through Helan Mountain to Liangzhou, and it is also the only road that Nuo Min has secretly explored for more than ten years.

Because the terrain is so steep that it can't even be called a road, it's just a pedestrian walk. The Liangzhou army also did not arrange for people to guard here, because no one believed that the army could pass through here, and even if a single pedestrian could pass, it would not help the battle situation.

Bo Yalun turned his head from time to time and told the soldiers behind him to walk cautiously, pay attention to the road under their feet, and lead their war horses, otherwise one accidentally fell from the cliff and fell into the mountain stream, even if the gods came, they would not be able to save themselves.

"Come on, use the ropes you carry with you to form knots one after another, and then each carefully grasp the rope, through this plank road, the road ahead will be much easier."

Boyaron cheered up the soldiers behind him and reminded them to pay attention to the road under their feet.

Eagle sorrowful stream, a line of heaven is the official name of the plank road on the map of Liangzhou about Helan Mountain, and in private, the common people call this place the ghost gate.

You don't need too many people, just a hundred soldiers guarding the other side of the plank road, no matter how many people come from the opposite side, don't think about crossing this plank road. This is really a one-man affair, and no one can open it.

It's just a pity that since thirty years ago, the guard battalion of Eagle Chou Jian has been withdrawn. Because the guards at that time did not believe that there would be an army that would be able to cross Helan Mountain from this desperate road.

Later, when Zhong Gang was in charge of the Xiliang Army, no one mentioned this matter to him, as if this desperate road had been forgotten by the world. It wasn't until one day, when Nuo Min opened a pen book that recorded Helan Mountain, that this plank road by the cliff reappeared in front of the world.

"Ah......h

A terrible voice came from the bottom of the cliff, but no one dared to look down, and no one dared to reach out to pull it.

From the moment he embarked on this desperate road, all the horses wore blindfolds and were held tightly by the sergeants, who had explained before setting off that no matter who it was, no matter what the situation was, he could only make one choice, and that was to bury his head and hurry.

Once someone falls off the boardwalk, don't even think about saving them, because the only consequence of doing so is that there is no second outcome other than putting yourself on it.

Just imagine, where is it difficult to even settle down, where is there a place where you can use your strength to save people?

……

……

With his good kung fu, Bo Yalun can barely move forward on this desperate road, not to mention the soldiers who grew up on the grassland, even if they are elite soldiers selected from the 200,000 army, they are all terrified on such a road.

To put it bluntly, everything depends on the will of God, and whoever is unlucky and falls off the cliff can only blame his own fate.

Although when Bo Yalun set off, he had already prepared in his heart, knowing that many people would be buried in this ghost gate. But walking on the road, listening to the screams of someone falling off the cliff behind her, she still felt like a knife.

These are the best and most elite soldiers of the empire, who did not die on the battlefield, but died in vain on this mountain road, how can it not make people feel painful.

In the end, all the troops passed through the Eagle Sorrow Stream, and when Boyaron counted the number of people, he almost didn't see a dark in front of him, and passed out. Eight thousand people set off with the trip, and only seven thousand two hundred people passed in the end, which means that more than 800 people were buried on the cliff plank road less than five miles away.

Sure enough, it is worthy of the title of Ghost Gate! It is no wonder that the Xiliang army will withdraw the guard camp of the Eagle Sorrowful Stream, and the mortality rate of nearly one-tenth is still the elite team of the Mengyuan army.

If this is replaced by an ordinary army, wouldn't the attrition rate reach three or four percent? I'm afraid that before they can cross the Eagle Stream, they will be frightened back.
