In early summer, the northern part of the continent is not very warm, the yellow sand is mixed with dots of emerald green, from the height it looks like a huge plate of scrambled eggs with leeks, and occasionally there are one or two small black earth buns abruptly, like pasty noodles that are too hot when stir-frying. From time to time, a variety of birds flew over the plains, and people shuffled their tired steps, from north to south.

Dog, looking at the small dirt bag in front of him, to be exact, it is a grave mound, a grave without a tombstone, the only thing that can symbolize a cemetery is the pattern painted on the grave that symbolizes people, and even men and women cannot distinguish between them. Maybe after a gust of wind it's really just a mound of dirt.

The deceased was a refugee who had fled with the dogs, he couldn't tell where he came from, he was in his thirties, he spoke northern barbarian, and it was difficult to understand.

Although the dog itself is also a barbarian, the deceased is estimated to be a Feishui person south of Luoqing, very close, all of them are from the Huang Yao Empire in the Keqingfeng Plain, but the spoken language is very different, especially the speed of speech, the dog is seven years old this year, and he has never been out of the village, so it sounds naturally difficult.

The deceased was a good man, and on the way to escape met a dog, and when others saw the dog, they saw that it was a child, and they didn't bother to pay attention to it, but he walked with the dog, and together with the dog, he dug wild vegetables and roasted meat, and it was dead human flesh.

When crossing the Luo River, he met the rangers of the Blue Horse Empire, and the cavalry shot at the fleeing crowd, and the dog and the deceased were lucky to run out, and the dog came to the present day, but he lost too much blood from the arrow, and finally fell here, and the dog spent a day digging a pit on the spot and buried him in it.

There was no sadness, no tears, and he stayed quietly for a while, following the fleeing crowd to the south.

Dog's home is a very small village in Ke Qingfeng's Luocaopo, most of the people in the village are farmers, and a few are hunters.

Because the south of the village is the Red Mountain, the Red Mountain is not too big, from Feishui in the east, to Huailuo in the west, there are more than 200 miles, the grass slope is close to Feishui, the parents are Orion, when the Blue Horse Empire invaded the Huang Yao Empire, Luoqing Mansion Ya Chen Donghai abandoned the city and fled, and the Blue Horse people entered Luoqing like a tide - burning, killing and looting.

On that quiet morning, the grassy slope was surrounded by the Blue Horse Army.

Parents died in that massacre. Not many people escaped, and the dog was narrowly escaped by his mother in a hole in the ground. I can't forget the smell of the whole village being poured with fire oil, I can't forget the back of my mother who put herself in the cellar and leave, I can't forget the cry that came from time to time、、、、、、

With the sparse crowd of fleeing, the dog walked very fast, and one refugee after another was overtaken, and the dog knew that it was not how good his physical strength was, but that this group of fleeing refugees did not have their own goals at all. They're just moving mechanically, they're dazed, they're helpless, they're just moving mechanically.

The dog does not know where he is going, nor what will greet him in the future, he only knows how to move, and only movement can distance the distance between life and death.

The dog is not the same as the people here, he was born with thoughts and memories, and he traveled from a planet called Earth.

The dog was a mechanical designer in his last life, and when he was exploring an ore in a primeval forest in South America, he encountered a black hole in time and space, and a big rainstorm fell on the grassy slope, thunder and lightning flashed, and a lightning bolt crossed the grassy slope, and the dog was born.

Because the first few children died, there is a cliché custom in the village, that is, the newborn child's name is easy to give birth to, so after giving birth, his parents named him Gou'er, Yang Gou'er.

The crowd was still moving lifelessly, and from time to time there were some people who had lost hope, and could no longer bear this inexplicable unknown—to fall down and die.

"Dodge, dodge、、、、、"

"Tata Tata"

An army from the south galloped forward, the sound of neat infantry footsteps mixed with the sound of horsewhips on horseback, and the cavalry who opened the way in front of them pointed at the crowd who had no time to dodge. The fleeing crowd quickly dodged in both directions.

The army passed by the dog, stretching northward, like a long cyan snake.

A man who looked like an officer, wearing a full helmet, couldn't see his face clearly, and was newly saved in a blue battle robe, and gave his hand.

"Fathers and fellow villagers, brothers and sisters, everyone is fortunate"

The fleeing people stopped and looked at the military master in confusion.

"Ahem, I'm Luoshui Garrison Liu Qingshan"

"Ahem, Chen Donghai left Luo Qing, you guys, the north gate of the empire, and ran back to Luoshui with his tail between his legs."

Liu Qingshan rode around on his horse, scanning the crowd on both sides of the road.

"But the Empire has not forgotten you, so we are here."

"We want to get back what belongs to us, food, land, livestock, property and, of course, dignity."

The voice was not hurried or slow, it was very powerful, and a trace of hope flashed in the eyes of the fleeing people, and the eyes of the military master were no longer so confused.

"Ahem, do you know where the Blue Horse Dog Outpost is hitting now, and if you know, come out and talk about it."

"Anyone who knows, come out and say, do you know? Do you have? 、、、、、、、”

Su Ping took Liu Qingshan's words and asked

The crowd began to stir, as if Liu Qingshan and Su Ping were the sun, looking at each other, their eyes became confused, and their eyes began to be confused again, looking at the partner next to them, time passed like this, helplessly, some refugees began to move, to the south, towards Luoshui, towards the place where I didn't know what the future would look like.

Su Ping was still asking questions from time to time, to the refugees who walked by.

"The last time I saw the Blue Horse people was the afternoon before yesterday, they were on the north bank of the Luo River, they were all light cavalry, there were not many people, there were more than 50 of them. It's not too 、、、、、、 right now."

The dog looked at Su Ping in front of him and scratched his head and said.

"Did they cross the river?"

"When we ran, we didn't 、、、、、? yet."

Next to a refugee less certain addition.

Hungry! Particularly hungry, Yang Gou'er felt that his stomach was empty and his heart was about to be close to his back, he wanted a bite to eat, he wanted a bite to eat, and this idea could not be erased once it was formed in his mind. So-

"Officer, can you give a stutter?"

Su Ping and Liu Qingshan looked at this child who was not as tall as his legs,

Silence, only the sound of the infantry running neatly was left around, and the surrounding refugees looked at the dogs and then stared at Liu Qingshan and Su Ping, silent、、、、

Liu Qingshan looked at the child in front of him, his face was covered with dust, he was dressed in a single coat with an open mouth, a wolf skin apron, cotton and linen pants, his hands were dirty like blue snakeskin, there was stubbornness in his big eyes, hope, timidity、、、、、, and the sound of swallowing saliva, and a burst of hunger surged up for no reason. Sad, there is no war perhaps、、、、、、

Nodding to adjutant Su Ping, Su Ping gestured backwards

An orderly ran over.

"Give him a steamed bun"

The orderly ran back, and after a while, he took a bowl of steamed buns and handed it to Yang Gou'er.

"Search"

When Yang Gou'er was about to catch the steamed buns, the refugees next to him snatched the steamed buns in the hands of the orderlies, and the refugees began to rush to the steamed buns frantically, and the refugees who grabbed the steamed buns crawled to the ground and ate frantically, ignoring the beatings of the orderlies and the looting of the refugees.

The dog was squeezed away by the crazy crowd, and after a while, the refugees who grabbed the steamed buns were surrounded by water, people pressed on his back, and some of them buckled the food from their mouths that they had not had time to chew, and the people who couldn't grab the steamed buns kicked a few feet on the back of the robbing crowd to vent, and those who grabbed quickly left or put the steamed buns in their mouths, and the scene was chaotic.

The crowd gradually dispersed, some were standing, crawling, walking, and the person who had just grabbed the steamed bun did not move, lying quietly on the ground into a big character.

The orderly walked over and felt his pulse, looked at Liu Qingshan and Su Ping and shook his head and walked away.

The crowd dodged away in a panic, and after a while, only the dog and Liu Qingshan and Su Ping on the horse were left, as well as the quiet 'big character' on the ground in the distance. "Little one, come here, come here, come here、、、、 come here"

Liu Qingshan beckoned to the dog, and the dog moved over timidly.

"Three stews, get some"

Liu Qingshan beckoned to the orderly, touched the dog's head and sent the dog to the orderly.

The dog ate a steamed bun and a piece of sauced beef, and wanted to eat the orderly, but the orderly refused to give it, saying that he was hungry and afraid of dying if he ate too much. The team was still trotting forward, with no tail in sight in front of or behind.

A fast horse galloped from the south, and the soldiers on the horse stopped the horse from a long distance and jumped down, and his body was still a little unable to hold his feet under the action of inertia.

"Newspaper"

"Speak"

"The Blue Horse Man has appeared in the rear army, and now the Fire General has connected with his outpost."

"What? There is a blue horse dog in the rear army? ”

"Yes! The Blue Horse Army appears in the rear army! ”

"Hum" Liu Qingshan only felt that one head and two were big, this morning they set off from Luoshui City, during which they passed through the horse pass to the current Shacao Beach, and the rapid march was only 50 miles, and the scene of the military and people in Luoshui City still seemed to be in front of them. It was only a moment before the blue dog appeared behind the army, and there was no outpost or horse、、、、、

"Luoshui! How is Luoshui City now? ”

The herald looked at Liu Qingshan on the horse and shook his head.

"I don't know! The rear army and the Blue Horse people took over the battle at the dismount pass, and the Blue Horse people dismounted and sealed the camp entrance, so that not even a bird could fly over. ”

"Do you know how many?"

"I don't know, it's not too much, it's 2 meters lined up on the stack, there are camp flags, and there are grass crossbows."

"Kill the Lord back!" Su Ping asked Liu Qingshan with an inquiring tone.

Liu Qingshan bowed his hand and subconsciously shook his head. "I want to think, I want to think about 、、、、、、、、"

The Blue Horse people did not scout the horses, did not have an outpost, and without warning, suddenly appeared behind the army.

Luoshui is not an empty city now, after Luo Qing broke the city seven days ago, Huang Shuai of the empire has transferred Huang Biao's army from Huainan to Luoshui.

The day before he left the city, Huang Biao's army had already taken over the defense, although it was the front team, there were more than 20,000 people, and the forward commander was Ren Tang, a famous general of the Huang Yao Empire, who had guarded the western front of the empire for decades, and the Western Longxiang Empire could stop the army by listening to its name.

The Blue Horse people had already broken through Luoqing City seven days ago, and it stands to reason that Luoqing was less than 200 miles from Luoshui, and the rapid march was only about two days, and there was no danger to defend in the middle. Although there are also arrow battlements on the city wall, Xiama Pass can face the iron crossbows and gas carts of the Blue Horse people、、、、、

The three-meter-high garrison wall, according to the garrison force that dismounts now, it is a miracle to insist on not breaking it for the next hour.

But the Blue Horse people didn't move after capturing Luoqing, why?

As the saying goes, the soldiers are fast, but what are the Blue Horse people waiting for? Liu Qingshan vaguely felt that he was trapped in a huge trap! If you are not careful, this trap will be a catastrophe, think about it, think again、、、、、

The 1,000 rear army of his company is 8,000 people, and almost all of the garrison of Luoshui has come out, and they are now the outpost of the empire to Luoqingcheng, and the goal is to build a defensive line on the south bank of the Luohe River and wait for Huang Biao's army to counterattack.

The top brass of the empire were not fully prepared for this war, and they preferred to be like before, where the Blue Horse people fought for a while, then there were peace talks, and then they gave some money and horses, and the Blue Horse people left behind the looted land and the refugees who were mourning.

The Huang Yao Empire also inadvertently came to a population reduction, and then added taxes to other towns, and the officials still ate delicacies from the mountains and seas, held a feast of dragons and tigers, and built a car and a boat palace. In a few years, the land in Luoshui will be more fertile, and it will be difficult for the land watered by human blood and war cannon fodder not to be fertile.

People who were submerged by taxes in other cities began to pour into Luoshui, Luoshui is still Luoshui, fertile, busy, poor, and the wealth of the officials 、、、、、 easier than before. In the past hundred years, this cycle has been repeated more than once, and the pain of civilians has become more and more painful, and the pain has become numb. The official is getting richer and richer, and he is so rich that he is oily.

As early as two days ago, Liu Qingshan had already received a notice from the Imperial Command that it was the first coach of the Blue Horse who attacked Huang Yao this time, Nusi. The pioneer officer is Qin Kemu, a very cautious general.

The Blue Horse people closed the city gate immediately after the rear army passed the dismount pass, and did not see the dismount town broken when they and the rear army passed the dismount, the town of the lower horse is the lower horse pass, there is a guard wall, more than 30,000 residents, the usual garrison team of the lower horse town is a battalion, 300 people,

The rear army dismounted, and the town gate was closed, which means that the dismount pass was already in the hands of the Blue Horse people, and the garrison team had surrendered to the Blue Horse, and the Blue Horse people also knew that Huang Biao's army had arrived in Luoshui, with their own 8,000 foot soldiers in front, and Huang Biao's army in Luoshui in the back, and the Blue Horse people were crazy? Not afraid of front and back strikes? Why? Why?

Liu Qingshan touched his chin with his hand, one by one the possibilities went back and forth in his mind like a movie, he had an intuition that now he was standing at the door of hell and death, and a flash of himself and these 8,000 foot soldiers would once again become the fertilizer of the sand under his feet.

The Blue Horse people will not be so stupid, they must have something to rely on before they dare to be wrapped inside, as soon as the rear army passes the dismount pass, the Blue Horse people will close the door, what does this mean?

It's also possible that there was intentional exposure, why? Blue Horse Nusi's subordinates are like clouds, and it is not common to be able to intersperse them unconsciously with dismounts.

A deserted scene on the street? And that bad smell? Phantom Shaw! Yes, it must be Phantom Xiao, an extremely volatile ore that emits a pungent damp smell when ignited.

It can shield the divine consciousness of high-level monks, and the army generally uses illusory Xiao to deal with the divine consciousness and mask aura of high-level monks! It can't be that the dismounters have been slaughtered! Then mask the breath with phantom Xiao.

Then the main force of the Blue Horse Dog will not be dismounted now! Then the north bank of the Luo River may be the weakest defense line of the Blue Horse, death, Liu Qingshan instantly smelled a breath of death coming towards him, maybe break through the defense line of the Blue Horse people on the north bank of the Luo River, and then turn around into the Red Mountain, this is the only way for himself and these 8,000 people to survive.

Dismounting has now become a blue horse man across the Luoshui and the sand grass beach to see the iron wall, the blue horse people can't wait to bump into themselves, and then hit the head to break the blood, in order to give the Blue Horse Army in Luohe more time to make the Blue Horse support thicker, and then he is the Iron Army will be crushed into blood and cannon fodder by these two forces、、、

Liu Qingshan restrained his flying thoughts and pointed the whip in the direction of Luohe.

"Target Luohe, speed up!"

Then he galloped towards Luohe, Su Ping followed behind, repeating Liu Qingshan's order loudly, and all the foot soldiers also shouted at the same time!

"Target Luohe, speed up!"

"Target Luohe, speed up!"

The refugees who grabbed the steamed buns never got up again, and the big character lying in the footsteps of the team "Tata", the side of the team was gradually covered by the yellow sand, like covered with a layer of yellow silk curtain, as the army passed through, the silk curtain became thicker and thicker, until it was completely covered by yellow sand, and became a huge big character made of sand.
