Chapter 19: The Old Man Meets
"Chapter 19βMeeting the Dead"
After Yu Xuan and his entourage left Guyue City, everyone immediately dispersed, and everyone acted separately. How many people together the goal is too big! All the caravans are led by their original leaders, and one of them has a goal of 'Jiayuguan'!
Yu Xuan took Yanyun ten horses this time, these ten people are not simple, not only are they all skilled, but also ten people can form a small killing array, the power is immeasurable, Yu Xuan is beautiful along the way, he is much more relieved to have such a master, and his confidence is also a lot!
After leaving the Iron Cage Mountain, he entered the mountains in the northwest of the people, and advanced according to the map drawn by his own people, bypassing many small villages along the way! There were more than 1,000 people in Yu Xuan's party, all of them were his henchmen, half of them were people from the original Shicheng Brigade, and after many things, all of them joined the Yan Army!
After walking for a while, Yu Xuan once dispersed the crowd, leaving only Yan Yunshi riding by his side, and the others separated and marched towards Jiayuguan on different routes, blending in as much as possible! There are some people left on standby!
There are fewer people in Yu Xuan's group? The action was also a lot faster, and soon it was Jiayuguan, and the majestic city tower could be faintly seen in front of it, and there were fierce soldiers standing on it. It is a very old castle, as you can tell from the color of the walls and the castle, and it has been the site of countless great battles!
The city gate was tightly closed, probably because they had received information that the four allied forces would attack Jiayu Pass. They have significantly tightened their guard! It is not difficult to see from the large number of soldiers in their city!
"Who are you?" The soldiers in the city shouted fiercely!
"We are swordsmen! It's getting late when you pass by here, and you want to rest for the night in Guibao Land! Yu Xuan hugged his fists at the officers in the city and said!
"Haha! You're swordsmen! Any credentials? The officer in the city was obviously a little happy, but he still asked vigilantly!
"Master Jun! Look at this knife of ours! Isn't it for swordsmen? And I have a few of us here? The military master doesn't believe you look at it! As he spoke, Yu Xuanyou took out a medal from his backpack! This is a medal issued by the Northwest Swordsman Association, which proves that their identity is a swordsman, and it is also a sign of a swordsman!
"It's so far away that I can't see clearly! So be it! I opened the gates, and you came in, and I looked? The officer in the city said with a smirk.
"Okay!" Yu Xuan happily agreed, everything is going according to plan! Hey! He smiled proudly, too!
"Little ones! Open the gates! β
Squeaky !!! A bulky and familiar gate slowly opened!
"Don't move, don't move with me first, no one is allowed to move without my order, and no one is allowed to do it without military law!"
"My subordinates understand!"
Yu Xuan quickly walked through the city gate, and then they slowly closed! Everything went well, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse!
Several horsemen came up to them! They all rode tall horses. One of them stared indifferently at Yu Xuan and the others kept watching! It seems very confused and incomprehensible!
"Just you?" Very cold tone!
"Yes!" Yu Xuanhao didn't show weakness!
"Our lordship summons! Lay down your knives! Come with me! After saying that, he rode away! Ignore Yu Xuan at all!
"Master, what should we do!"
"Cold salad"
"What? Chilled !! The person next to him wondered!
"Don't talk, just follow me," Yu Xuan said to his three subordinates, and then rode into the city himself, there were very few people walking on the street, I don't know if it was because of the cold weather or because of the big war that was about to happen!
When they came to the city, they saw a group of soldiers in front of them, dressed in a variety of costumes, and at a glance they knew that they were not regular troops.
Yu Xuan brought this henchman to the gate, only to see a general wearing bright armor, with long eyebrows and clear eyes like a Xiucai who reads, and the soldiers around him are the same, at a glance, you can know that his status is very high! Li Pei carries a delicate little sword, the color of which is basically the same color as the armor!
"You're new?" General Xiucai touched his nose and said.
"Yes!"
"Take them down!" Xiucai said lightly!
The surrounding soldiers quickly surrounded them!
"Wait! Dare to ask why the general is arresting us? β
"You spies, you look east and west as soon as you enter the city? Our general suspects that you are a spy sent by the four allied forces to investigate the military situation! A man who looked like an adjutant general said.
"Spies! You suspect us of being spies! Yu Xuan was a little surprised!
"Yes, as long as I say you're a spy, you're a spy! Hey! You know? General Xiucai smiled sinisterly!
"General! We're just passing swordsmen! How can it be a spy? The general is clear? One of Yu Xuan's subordinates pleaded.
"Haha! Passing swordsmen! Is it? β
"Yes! Checkmate! β
"As long as you listen to me to prove that you are not a spy?" General Xiucai said a little proudly! These people are not as difficult to deal with as they thought, the battle of Jiayuguan is imminent, and a large number of people are needed! And how difficult it is to recruit soldiers in this vast and small land! So they came up with a brilliant idea! It is to gather all the swordsmen in the past, this is a force to be reckoned with! A ready-made army, so to speak!
However, it seemed a bit impossible to get these swordsmen to serve them, so I thought of a way! Convict them first, and then make meritorious deeds! In this way, they successfully recruited many ignorant swordsmen to buy their lives!
They were escorted to a concentration camp, where more than 800 people had been concentrated, Yu Xuan looked at the people here, everyone looked sullen! A few of them kept walking around, looking at the officers and soldiers outside! I want to take the opportunity to escape!
There are a few people sitting in front of him, and his back is a little familiar! So he walked over to see who it was?
"Gan Shijie !!" Yu Xuan called out his name in surprise! I thought to myself, how could he be here?
"Yu Xuan! Ah! How are you? Why are you here? Gan Shijie also looked surprised! He knew that his recent friend had joined the army and had gone to the Northwest! I was surprised that it popped up all of a sudden!
"Me! The swordsman was caught by them? Yu Xuan looked around and said.
"I thought you?? Is it okay? Gan Shijie stood up and hugged Yu Xuan!
"Haha! It's okay! It's okay! Tell me about my home? How is my mother doing now? After seeing the ancients, he wanted to know very much about the current situation at home!
"It's hard to put into words! We were supposed to dart here? I didn't think I couldn't go back now? Alas! Gan Shijie's father, Gan Long, sighed!
"Now that there are wars going on everywhere, the situation at home is not very good? Many of us moved south when we came? As if your father is also going to go? Can't stay in the north? Gan Shijie said after letting go of Yu Xuan.
"What? Do we also have wars there? β
"You don't know? After the emperor is dead, the imperial capital Dragon City was broken by the army of the Four Clans Alliance, the strong people from all over the country set themselves up as kings, in order to strengthen the recent strength, they continued to catch strong men, and some even bandits, they fought with each other! The scourge of war continues! A lot of people have already died? A dart master next to him said.
"What? Cannibalism yourself? Yu Xuan clenched his nearest fist and said angrily! Unexpectedly, he never thought of it, I don't know how my mother is now? He was silent and didn't speak!
"Yu Xuan! The Northwest Ironclad Army was defeated! What are you doing now? Gan Shijie asked with concern.
Yu Xuan turned his head and smiled slightly, and said, "Just like you, being a swordsman, but I'm just a bodyguard!" "He doesn't want him to know who he is, so there will be a lot of unnecessary trouble?
"Oh! Now we're in trouble at the same time! β
After a while, a few people were arrested, Yu Xuan took a look, and didn't say anything? He knew someone had recently crept in.
"Alas! We've been caught? Pathetic! An old swordsman sighed!
"Big brother! We've got to find a way to get out! The young swordsman reminded.
"Yes! Eldest brother! We can't wait to die here! A few people chimed in! But their eldest brother was holding a big knife in his arms, and he didn't say anything with his eyes closed, which seemed unfathomable! Give a sense of pressure! The few little brothers next to him looked very anxious, * they are still young people, and they are always so impetuous!
Early the next morning, a large group of officers and soldiers, holding bright steel knives in their hands, escorted some people here to the square in the city, because the weather was relatively cold, some were early in the morning, there were not many people here at all, the square was full of armored soldiers, all with bright eyes, strong blood, although young but very majestic!
Everyone was puzzled, what was this for? They have no weapons in their hands, so they can only be slaughtered! That's a picture of everyone!
Walking on the high platform of the square came an old general, wearing not flashy armor, but what kind of majesty can still shock many young people! He walked to the top of the high platform and scanned everyone on the scene with his majestic eyes! Behind him stood several middle-aged generals and young generals! Calvary is mighty and unyielding.
"Hello everyone! I am the master of this city, and welcome all heroes to our little Jiayuguan! Gather you here today, I have something to discuss with you! Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you! The old general spoke, but everyone was still not at ease, just look at the formation here?
"Everyone knows that the four rebels are about to attack Jiayu Pass! And we've got reliable information that their spies have infiltrated the city in the guise of swordsmen! Therefore, in order to catch the enemy's spies, we must not detain you, please forgive me! A middle-aged general walked up and said!
It's a mess down here! All the chatter! There are those who are angry, and there are those who are confused! All this was expected by Xuan, and he was not much surprised!
Keep it updated!
