"Qin Shimingyue Han Shiguan, the Long March has not been returned, but the dragon city will fly, do not teach Hu Ma to Yin Mountain!" Standing on the border line of the Tang Dynasty, Li Wan looked at the brothers behind him, and did not choose to enter the city, but stood on the high ground outside the city, looking at the low walls of the city over there, the tattered armor on the soldiers at the head of the city, and the weapons in his hands shining with a dazzling light in the sun.

This is the border of Datang, where hundreds of thousands of hot-blooded men of Datang are stationed, who have dedicated their youth to this land, even if this is not their hometown. But this is likely to be the place where their bones are buried. Where do you not bury your bones? The horse leather shroud was something that they had been preparing for a long time, but it was just a matter of seeing if Lord Yama would accept himself. The struggle on the battlefield was nothing else, only for the homeland behind him, for the people who leaned against the door and looked out on the land where he was born and raised. There is endless nostalgia in their hearts, and this is the biggest mystery of their perseverance all the way.

"The general is a good poet, a good one, but he will make Longcheng fly, and he will not teach Hu Ma to Yinshan! The last general has long heard that the general has a humanistic talent, and he has never seen it, and this time he can listen to such a proud poem, which is enough to comfort his life! Liu Wei heard Li Kuan's poems casually, and couldn't help but admire. He, like most of the generals of this era, is illiterate in big characters, and poetry and songs are amazing in their eyes, not everyone can pick up their faces like Cheng Yanjin, and recite a song 'Oh my mother' as a peerless poem.

"What kind of poet, it's just picking up people's teeth!" Li Kuan himself doesn't think it's cool to copy any poems, but he feels it. Ever since he copied so many poems when he was a child, he was entangled by Li Tai's fat boy and couldn't get out. He faded this thought, and this time he came back from Tuyuhun. Of the 1,300 men who followed him all the way into the grassland, only a little more than half were left. Now only about 800 people have returned, and the rest have all left their most precious lives on this vast plateau. The battlefield has been a life-devouring graveyard since ancient times, and whoever walks on this battlefield will have their head pinned to their belts.

"Let's go, let's go into town!" Li Wan rode his soldiers on their horses and headed towards the small city, this time they did not encounter any obstacles, and the Tang border troops who had erected barricades to prevent them from entering the grassland were meeting them at this time, because it was not long after they entered the grassland. There was news from above that the people they had blocked were not actually horse thieves, but secret troops sent by the imperial court. This made countless captains of the border army scold their mothers. Isn't this a trap? Those people are the heroes of Datang, how can they be chased away with such notoriety? So this time, when the soldiers who were watching from the city saw the men and horses approaching in the distance, and saw clearly that those people were the same group of people who had left the customs before, they immediately got on. So the grassroots generals of these border armies began their most direct greeting ceremony, as for how to recognize this team as the previous one, it was because of the young general of the dark horse and silver gun!

Li Kuan saw the soldiers pouring out of the city gate, as well as the sound of the earth-shattering war drums coming from the city, and said in his heart that it was impossible not to be excited and glorious, but he still rode up with a wolf warrior with a straight face.

"The last general is Zhou Chuang. Seen the general! Please also ask the general to enter the city! A big man wearing bright light armor walked out of the city gate, with a thick evil aura on his body, a thick body, and a scar that flew diagonally upwards on his face, making him look hideous. Even now he has a warm smile on his face. But the days of fighting all year round have soaked the evil qi in his body, how to resolve it?

"General Zhou, what is this doing? I just did what every Tang boy should do. How can you afford such a great gift from a general? Li Kuan hurriedly dismounted and stepped forward to return the salute with his fists.

"No matter what. General, you have done what a certain family has always wanted to do but has never been able to do, how can such a hero not be able to be a hero? It's getting late. The general and went to the city to rest with the last general, so that the last general could do his best as a landlord! How is it? Zhou Chuang said and led the way ahead. Walking all the way to the city, the rest of the soldiers of the wolf warrior rode saw that the main general had left with the general, so they had to follow. Fortunately, at this time, the sun is setting, just stay overnight in Lanzhou City, and set off tomorrow, in Tuyuhun for almost two or three months, has been chasing people and being chased by others, where there is time to rest completely, just make up for sleep.

The gate of Lanzhou City was opened, welcoming the heroes in the minds of the Tang border army who returned from afar, no matter how much the people who went out on this expedition achieved, but they dared to go to the grassland for a while, then they were the model in the hearts of the Tang Dynasty men.

While Li Kuan and the others were still eating and drinking in the city, the soldiers under Zhou Chuang's command had already mounted their war horses to pass on the news, and they set out for one thousand three and returned eight hundred. Such explosive news, of course, quickly appeared on the desk of Zhou Chuang's top boss, Chai Shao, the head of the Shannan Road March. Over the years, the first concubine of the Tang Dynasty, who has been unswervingly supporting Li Er at the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, has been sticking here, from the Wude period to the sixth year of Zhenguan. This has been stationed for more than ten years. Who is Chai Shao? It is the husband of Li Kuan's aunt Li Xiuning, who spent all his family wealth to fund the Li family's uprising, and then he was all the way to the dragon's work, this person is also a person who can be literate and martial, wise and brave. And he is still a very responsible person, so he took the burden of suppressing Tuyuhun here. Even except for a trip back to Chang'an City when Li Er ascended the throne and became emperor, he has been guarding here all these years, and Li Xiuning brought Chai Lingwu here for family reunions during the New Year's holidays.

Of course, the reason why Li Kuan's cheap uncle fought like this is probably more because of his wife, Princess Li Xiuning of Pingyang. Taking such a wife is also the sorrow of being a man, just because too good women will make men feel a kind of wordless pressure, men are machismo in their bones, even if they are graceful, but they have always been pressed by their own wife, how can they still be open-minded?

So Chai Shao has always wanted to make achievements and prove that he is no worse than his wife Li Xiuning. He is learning from Li Jing, because Li Jing, the wife of the Tang Dynasty military god, is also a generation of strange women, just because Li Jing is really shining, so he was not covered up by his wife, but it seems to complement each other and achieve a good story, but although Chai Shao is both civil and military, he can be called a generation of Confucian generals, and he can be called an outstanding talent. Who called him so unlucky, marrying a lady like Li Xiuning who doesn't like red clothes and loves arms, the prestige of the Women's Army shocked the entire Tang Dynasty, making him feel a little embarrassed, so he made such a decision, Yongzhen Tuguhun.

Seeing the situation reported by Zhou Chuang below, and knowing that the leading general was a teenager, Chai Shao thought about it, and thought for a long time that he didn't think who was such a young genius, and finally had to find the soldiers who came to interrogate him, and asked about it, and finally came to a news that surprised him: This young general was actually his wife's favorite nephew - Li Kuan, the king of Chu.

"Someone, send this Hongling urgent report to Chang'an for 1800 miles!" Chai Shaoxuan came to the soldiers, handed him a letter with vermilion fire paint, and then commanded.

After the soldier bowed and agreed, he quickly turned around and left, and then Chai Shao also left his mansion quickly, heading towards Lanzhou in the border area.

Just when the Tang Dynasty was particularly lively because of Li Kuan's return, the nightmare of Tuyuhun on the plateau began, and a disease that could be called a disaster began to spread wildly in this country. There were a large number of sick people here, and it was surprising that the first people who fell ill were the least sick tribal warriors, and these strong warriors began to collectively experience chills, high fever, fatigue, headache, aching limbs and lower back, and other symptoms, and even some people had convulsions and coma because of high fever.

These soldiers showed such symptoms, but they were anxious for the top of Tuyuhun, because this disease that had never been known to them was frantically contagious, not only in the army, but even in the top of the city, and their brave royal heir, King Zun, was unfortunately diagnosed with the same disease. This caused a deep panic among the people of this plateau, who believed that this was the punishment of the gods of the sacred lake of the snow-capped mountains, and they were abandoned by the gods. As a result, the Bon faith began to flourish, and people burned their food, furs, livestock, etc., to the great gods to pray for forgiveness.

But this qiē had no effect in the slightest, except that they had to face not only disease but also famine. And the kind of disease that made them feel endless fear began to spread unscrupulously to the entire territory of Tuyuhun, and the tribal warriors who first fell ill appeared with patches of red spots on their bodies, which were itchy and unbearable, so that these brave warriors couldn't stop reaching out to scratch them, scratching them all over their bloody bodies.

Death began to appear, the erythema turned into a papule, and then a rash like blisters, accompanied by all kinds of strange diseases, and Zhenge Tuyuhun became a ghost in the world, and I saw countless people with bloody blisters on their faces, they were like wanderers like walking corpses, and they no longer herded cattle and sheep, and they no longer went to work, because they all began to despair, and as more and more people died, the way of death varied, and even some people were deaf in both ears and blind in both eyes because of this disease. Someone went berserk. The whole Tugu was in chaos.

Tuyuhun's army was the first to get sick, and at the very beginning, because of the illness of his companions, many people went to visit, and the result was out of control, and the whole Tuyuhun was able to fight and became more sick, and then the whole army lost its combat effectiveness, and then the whole kingdom completely became a country of death, and the hearts of the people were in turmoil, and the whole Tuyuhun began to become a gathering point for all the ugly evils in the world, murder and arson, rape and robbery, all the crimes you can imagine can be found here.

Fu Yun sat at the head of King Zun's bed, looking at his dead son, he completely lost hope in his heart, because he knew that the entire Tuyuhun was finished. But what he didn't understand the most was why Tuyuhun was so confused and completely wiped out when he died! (To be continued......)
