Chapter Twenty-Five: The Warriors of Banchao
Yu Songyuan had a strong feeling that the team in front of him should be the old department of Ban Chao when the fierce battle in the Western Regions was in full swing. Because, before 89 AD, the war was mainly fought in the east of the Ili River valley and north and south of the Tianshan Mountains. And 91 years later, the battlefield was mainly in West Asia.
A picture flashed in Yu Songyuan's head, and the process at that time may be like this:
In the process of fighting in the Western Regions, Ban Chao's army suddenly got important information that a group of Huns were transferring a batch of treasures captured from the Dayue Clan, and there were important tokens. So, they sent a small force, deep behind enemy lines, attacked and intercepted the wealth and tokens of the Huns. But they were pursued by the Huns and had to flee into the snowy mountains of the Hindu Kush.
They lost contact with the army and were lost in the vast snowy mountains. In the cold plateau, the temperature is getting lower and lower, they are running out of ammunition and food, and they are hungry and cold. They went into the cave to escape the cold snap, and for some unknown reason, there was internal strife among them, and the leader was assassinated. They chopped the traitors into meat sauce and prepared to hold on while the army came to their rescue.
It was then that the Huns, who were tracking them, spotted them, and the attack began, and they fought fiercely. It was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they repelled the Huns. But they are from the Central Plains, and they don't understand the power of the Great Snow Mountain. The sudden avalanche completely buried them, leaving the entire team suffocated and cold, quickly frozen and solidified into history.
Avalanche!!
Yu Song came here from afar, especially when he thought of the word "avalanche", his heart suddenly paused, and he couldn't stop trembling. Just now, the little landlord had been giving warnings, and even kept losing his temper and biting the corners of his trousers in a very angry manner. At this time, aren't the ancestors using this special way to remind their descendants that there will be another deadly avalanche?
His nerves quickly tensed, and he quickly packed the bag of lapis lazuli treasures into his backpack.
With the small landlord quickly out of the cave, as soon as he stretched out his hand, the small landlord had already jumped on his shoulder and squatted steadily on the tactical backpack. At this time, Liu Guodong also shouted a warning with a panicked and hoarse scream, "Boss, run!" Come on!! ”
There was already a faint, thunderous rumble from the top of the snowy mountain! The whole world was trembling slightly, Yu Song didn't have time to look left, right and up, he held his breath, stepped on the ice and snow and ice ridges under his feet, threw off his big stride, and walked to the right side of the snow valley, and began to race against time and life.
When Yu Songyuan drilled into the cave to check, Liu Guodong had already found that there might be danger, and he quickly climbed to a small ice cliff about 200 meters high on the right side of the snow valley, and quickly lowered the rope. As soon as the rope was lowered, the rumble of the avalanche began to sound.
"Quick! Fast! Hurry up, hold on to the rope!! Liu Guodong, who has always been calm, was also so nervous that his voice changed tone.
Yu Songyuan rushed to the bottom of the snow cliff at a speed of 100 meters, grabbed the rope, stepped on the ice wall, and flew up. Just about twenty or thirty meters up, in the rumbling loud sound, the earth shook the mountains, the big snow peak was about one-third of the volume, from a height of more than a thousand meters, the snow and fog between the sky and the earth were misty, covering the sky and the sun.
Yu Songyuan continued to run up desperately, several heavy snow balls and ice cubes smashed straight on his body and poured into his neckline, he didn't care about it, he was still stubbornly climbing up. The little landlord was unlucky and was smashed and screamed several times. He was humming in his throat, obviously angry.
Finally, he climbed to a height of about 100 meters, clinging to the snow wall, and caught his breath. Looking back, the bottom of the snow valley has been completely buried by ice and snow. On the top of the snow-capped mountain, there is still a roar, endlessly. Like an hourglass, large chunks of snow and ice are still rushing down.
"Boss, you can't stop, come up quickly!" Seeing that he stopped to rest, Liu Guodong quickly called out, and the little landlord was squatting on the backpack, and his throat was also whining and growling. As far as I could tell, its lungs had been blown up.
Yu Songyuan took a breath, quickly continued to climb up, climbed to the small platform where Liu Guodong was squatting, sat down with his ass so tired, collapsed on the ice cliff, and didn't want to move anymore. Looking further up, an even bigger avalanche began again, and with a loud rumbling sound, large chunks of ice and snow rolled down from the top of the snow peak, like a galloping horse......
Liu Guodong lit two cigarettes and gave one to Yu Songyuan. The two of them looked at the foot of their feet, such a wide canyon, at this moment, the snow was piled up, to say the least, it was one hundred and fifty meters deep. This is the power of nature, just imagine, if you come out a little late and are buried in it, you will suffocate in an instant. If you rely on rescue with bare hands, you will not be able to save people if you come to an engineering corps to dig for a week.
"Boss, didn't you hear me call you? The little landlords have seen me, and I thought you would be able to hear it. Liu Guodong asked with palpitations.
"I don't blame you, it's me who forgot everything. I don't blame the little landlord, he was about to cry and bite the corner of my pants with all his might. Yu Songyuan said weakly.
"What can make you so forgetful, there are ancient mummies at the entrance of the cave, what happened in the cave?" Liu Guodong asked nervously and curiously.
Yu Songyuan took out the largest piece from his backpack and handed it to Liu Guodong.
The avalanche on the snowy mountain was still continuing, and the glacier canyon was still covered with snow and mist, and there was a loud sound, but Liu Guodong took it and looked at it, and his hands trembled. "Lapis lazuli? God, jewels? ”
"You know?"
Liu Guodong snatched his backpack, flipped it out one by one and looked at it, and sat on the snow cliff with his buttocks, "Oh my God, do you know what you got back?" ”
"What is it?"
Liu Guodong said. "Each piece is priceless, and only this one gemstone and jade seal. I can't read the steppe script and the ancient Egyptian script, but I recognize it. This is the ancient Egyptian craftsmen carved exquisitely, for the steppe Dynasty of the Northern Xiongnu heirloom treasure seal. After the treasure seal fell into the hands of Wu Huan, the Da Yue clan followed the order of Ban Chao to capture Wu Huan and get this treasure seal. In order to seize this seal, the Xiongnu captured the Dayue clan again. In 97 A.D., the Eastern Han Dynasty general Ban Chao and the Da Yue clan attacked the Xiongnu, and the Da Yue clan regained the treasure seal......"
"Later, you don't have to say it, I can already imagine."
"But do you know what it's worth?" Liu Guodong asked again.
"......" Yu Songyuan shook his head.
"This is a national top cultural relic, a priceless treasure. Is it a coincidence? This treasure seal was buried in the snow mountain for 2,000 years, the country sent us, and the ancestors suddenly appeared and handed this treasure back into our hands, which is not just a coincidence, this is the will of God! ”
Liu Guodong said, put the treasure back in the backpack, and then solemnly reminded, "Absolute confidentiality, the stakes are high!" ”
The Chinese nation has a long history. The warriors buried the snow-capped mountains of a foreign country for 2,000 years, but they still did not forget their homeland mission! This made Yu Songyuan and Liu Guodong awe-inspiring and infinitely sighing! Being able to protect the great motherland with the loyal souls of their ancestors and fight together on this snowy plateau makes them feel extremely proud and proud!
At this time, Yu Songyuan had already relieved himself, and the avalanche had finally stopped. Looking at the soles of your feet, the glacier canyon that was 200 meters deep just now was only a few meters deep at this time. The power of nature makes people shudder. The two of them glanced at each other, and both gasped with palpitations.
The little landlord still ignored Yu Songyuan, sat far away from him, and snorted angrily. Yu Songyuan glanced at Liu Guodong, shook his head helplessly, and had to salivate, took out a piece of bear jerky, and apologized to it. The little landlord glanced at the jerky, and at first ignored him, but after turning his head for a while, he lowered his lips and walked over to eat the jerky.
Yu Songyuan touched its head and explained, "The stakes are high, and we are worth taking this risk!" "The small landlords are well-trained and do not pay attention to the unforgiving. After eating the jerky, the anger was gone.
The two jumped down into the snow valley and walked to the bottom of the snow peak. "It's the Japanese people, let the dog bury our ancestors! I just don't understand, why are they chasing us? Liu Guodong checked and asked.
"It's very likely that the attack on the Princess Maria took place." Yu Songyuan had already thought about this problem.
"Will they attack our family?"
"It's hard to say. It doesn't matter if my hometown and Xiao Yuan are for the time being, I have already told Xiao Yuchan when I left to strengthen Xiao Yuan's safety precautions. When we have our hands freed, I want to find out what kind of agency is chasing us! ”
The entrance of the ice and snow cave just now has been buried deep under the ice and snow. Yu Songyuan and Liu Guodong made a big grave out of ice, he really didn't want the cold wind of the plateau to disturb the warriors' dream of a foreign land that had been sleeping for two thousand years.
Rest in peace, warriors! Rest in peace, bless the immortal souls of the great Motherland!!
The two of them faced the grave and solemnly saluted to the location of the original cave entrance! Then take the small landlord and slowly return to the cave where he was hiding along the snow valley.
……
When Aso's gunshot rang out under the snow valley, his first thought was to be hit. He shouted, "Lie down!" "I was the first to lie down on the snow, and at this moment, above the snow valley, the gunshots also rang out.
It was the sound of two sniper rifles, and the bullets "popped" and burrowed into the snow beside Aso.
The squad has undergone rigorous and formal military training, and naturally it has also undergone sniper training. They knew what it meant to be blocked off at both ends by two SVD sniper rifles in this alley-like glacial canyon. "Enter the cave!" Aso let out a shout, took the lead and knelt on the ice beneath his feet, and quickly moved under the snowy peak on the left.
At this time, at both ends of the snow valley, two SVDs were still firing from time to time.
Aso looked at the terrain, it had just been an avalanche, and it was not advisable to stay here for too long. But the two ends are blocked, and if you don't enter the cave, there is only one way to die. Entering the cave is dangerous, but there is still a chance to live. When the opponent explores the cave, you can give him a head-on blow, and maybe a chance to turn defeat into victory.
I just can't escape, at least, I can catch a cushion when I die.
