Leaves fall back to the roots4 verse 33
On the second day of the 33rd section, Wu Ming got up early in the morning. Last night, Tao Yu's words made him upset, and he never fell asleep. After practicing boxing bare-chested for a while, my heart became more upset. So much so that when everyone packed up their tents and prepared to go on the road, he was still a little dizzy and didn't know why.
After walking for a while, a soldier of the Guards Battalion rode up, saluted him, and said, "My lord, Niangniang said that I was looking for you for something." Wu Ming was suddenly puzzled, she had only seen Tao Yu yesterday, and she came to find her early this morning, not knowing what was going on.
The three luxury carriages were evenly distributed in the middle of the ranks, and the remaining more than 100 soldiers of the Guards Battalion rode around the carriages for protection, and Li Yuan's black-armored sergeants were in front and behind. Tao Yu's car was at the forefront of the convoy, and there were more than a dozen carts in between, and these carriages were all the palace maids brought by Pabri. However, the last time Li Yuan broke into the cart and surprised a Youluli, Wu Ming naturally didn't believe that all the palace maids who stayed inside were delicate. With the current relationship between the two sides, Pabri naturally will not explain this matter.
Wu Ming naturally wouldn't ask any more questions.
Pabri's cart was in the middle of the convoy, and then the carriage of the Guards battalion. Wu Ming wanted to rush to Tao Yu from behind, he must have passed through these convoys, and when he passed by Paburi's cart, he saw that the curtain was closed, and there was a faint snoring sound coming from inside. It seems that the other party was ridiculous last night, and he is still catching up on sleep. He couldn't help but want to laugh a little, this time he was originally kidnapping the other party, but now it has become the king of the South Barbarian to escort him out of the country. There are some things in this world that can really only be said to be "unpredictable".
After a while, Tao Yu's cart arrived in front of him, and the driver who drove the car gently pulled the horse's bit, and the car suddenly stopped, and he reported loudly: "Lord Wu has arrived." ”
The curtain opened, revealing the heads of two people, one was Tao Yu, and the other turned out to be He Yi's. It's just that Tao Yu's face is cold, and there are two dark circles under his eyes, which can't be covered even by a thick foundation. He Yi's face was much better, and there was still a faint flush on his face, and when he saw Wu Ming, the flush on his face seemed to be a little thicker, and he hurriedly shrank into the carriage. Tao Yu glanced at Wu Ming, his face was still wooden, and he didn't see the slightest expression: "Lord Wu, I had something to tell you yesterday, but you left in a hurry, so I only bothered you to come over early in the morning." ”
After she finished speaking, she waved her hand at the coachman and said, "Walk, don't stop, and go back to your hometown early." The coachman replied respectfully, and threw a whip on the horse's hips. The horse neighed in pain, and the carriage shook and began to move forward slowly.
Wu Ming patted his horse to catch up, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "I don't know what is going on with Niangniang, please give me orders." Tao Yu looked at him and didn't speak, Wu Ming was furious by him, and after a while, she said: "Lord Wu, you said that you should do your best to practice the battle formation." Are you going to ask Yang Xiong to teach? This matter is promising, the battle formation of the Yang family is a must for me, but I didn't expect it to reappear in the world now, Lord Wu, you want all the soldiers to practice hard and enhance the combat power of our army. ”
Wu Ming's heart couldn't help but froze, this Tao Yu even knew that he invited Yang Xiong? Although this is not a big secret, he did not order the guard battalion to keep it secret, but when he heard Tao Yu tell the story, he was still unhappy for a while. According to Tao Yu's meaning, the Guards Battalion learned the battle formation, and it will be promoted in the army in the future. It's just that in this way, Yang Xiong's approval is definitely needed. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel upset, and he doubted whether it was right or wrong to bring up this matter of training the battle formation. At this time, he also somewhat understood Yang Xiong's distress.
Tao Yu's hand is extremely clever, not only to achieve the purpose of the emperors of the Eastern Han Dynasty, but also to minimize the impact of the guard battalion training battle formation and the soaring combat power. Once the battle formations are popularized in the army, the Guards Battalion naturally has no and no advantages. This hand kills two birds with one stone, which is very lamentable.
Wu Ming's heart was cold, he screamed, stayed in place for a while, and didn't know how to answer, Tao Yu's eyebrows raised, and said, "What, does Lord Wu have any opinions?" ”
"No, no, Niangniang is wise, it's just a matter of promotion in the army, I think it's better to go through Yang Xiong's approval, so it's the right way."
Tao Yu thought for a while and said, "It's okay, you should try your best to learn more first, this matter will be discussed later, and time is running out." Wu Ming responded: "Yes." Then he was taken aback and said, "Could it be that Prince Pa is about to leave recently?" ”
Tao Yu's face only had a hint of a smile on his face at this time, but it was like a breeze blowing willows, almost invisible, and he immediately regained a faint expression: "'Send you a thousand miles, you must say goodbye in the end', the prince can be regarded as doing his part, and the rest needs us to come by ourselves." Ahead is Wangxiang Valley, after this valley, we will reach the Qingting Grassland, we must stay where we are for two days, wait for the arrival of the Pegasus Legion, and then leave. ”
Wu Ming looked behind him, and the entire army was walking on the mountain road, dragging it for a long time. Now the road is getting narrower and narrower, and he is riding a horse to follow Tao Yu, which is also a little reluctant. I had to hold the horse and let the carriage go first, and then I followed the horse.
At this time, a black-armored scout came over from a distance, turned over and dismounted about five meters behind them, half-knelt on the ground, and said: "Niangniang, Lord Wu, the mountains ahead are steep, and our spies can't search all the mountains on both sides for a while. ”
Wu Ming nodded, and the scout stood up, saluted again, and then beat his horse away, as if flying away, and said loudly as he went, "Everyone take out their swords and guns, it's always good to be careful." He walked around the group, and everyone took out their weapons.
Tao Yu stared, and when the scout had already run away, he said softly: "This Li Yuan really has a hand in leading the troops, thick and fine. I hope I don't have to be an enemy of him in the future. ”
The mountain road is getting more and more difficult to walk, Wu Ming also got off the horse, confessed to Tao Yu, and then led the horse and stood on a mountain rock next to the road to facilitate the passage of the carriage, so as to wait for the guard battalion behind to catch up. The carriage was bumpy and frighteningly slow on the mountain road, and when Pabri's cart passed by, the curtain suddenly opened, startling Wu Ming.
Pabri poked his head out, sleepy-eyed, probably the car was shaking so badly that he couldn't sleep well. Seeing Wu Ming standing in front of him, he was also taken aback, and said, "Lord Wu, is something wrong?" ”
"The front is Wangxiang Valley, the more difficult the mountain road is, the more difficult it is to walk, the prince had better prepare too, in case someone ambushes him, he will not mess up."
Pabri smiled, stretched his waist and yawned, and said, "In this way, I thought it was a big deal, so to speak, this road is almost over, I don't know, last time Lord Wu tasted our Nanban durian, how did he feel?" ”
Wu Ming saw that he didn't care, and he also felt that he was a little fussed, this Wangxiang Valley is located at the junction of the Southern Barbarians, the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Persia, but Persia is separated by a Daya Snow Mountain, and every time you want to come over, you have to make a lot of preparations, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is an expedition of laborers. As for Nanban, he will definitely not attack this team. There is no need for the Green Wolf Army to do this, there is no benefit in the slightest.
However, Pabli's last sentence was a heart-wrenching word, remembering Tao Yu's faint expression, his heart was agitated, and he looked up at the front, only to see Tao Yu put down the curtain and retract into the car. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Lord Wang, this matter is impossible, so don't mention it in the future." ”
Pabri shook her head, didn't say anything more, yawned, and closed the curtains.
I don't know how this Wangxiang Valley was formed, both sides are full of steep cliffs, towering like clouds, looking up from the canyon, and in some places you can only see a glimmer of blue sky. It's like being slashed by a mountain and being slashed by life. Probably this is also a key road, usually horses and cars, the road is quite smooth, otherwise it is really impossible to pass guò.
On both sides of the mountain, there are towering giant trees, the height is even more than ten zhang, it is late autumn now, the leaves on the trees are not too much, and the fallen leaves have spread a thick layer in the whole canyon, as if laying a layer of velvet carpet. The sun shines through the sparse branches, and the wind blows, and the leaves dance with the wind on the branches, adding to the gloom.
Before Wu Ming entered the valley, he still looked like he didn't care, but at this time he was already vigilant, this place was indeed a good place for ambushes, just ambush a small group of people on the top of the mountain, stop the waist and break it, you can make people unable to advance or retreat. No wonder Li Yuan's scouts came to the police early, it does make some sense.
He pulled out the red night, handed the horse to Zhang Hao, hurried a few steps, and stood by Tao Yu's cart.
Now the entire team has penetrated deep into the Wangxiang Valley, and the scouts in front have even left the mouth of the canyon. Wu Ming suddenly let out a long breath, it seemed that he was also thinking too much and was suspicious.
At this moment, a whistle suddenly sounded on the hills on both sides, and then, many straw men appeared on the hills on both sides. These people were covered in a thick layer of yellow grass, and even wore weed-made hats on their heads. As soon as they came out, they raised a stone the size of a face plate and smashed it. There was a sudden exclamation from below. A stone was impartial, and it was smashing into one of the horses, and the horse suddenly neighed in pain, and was about to go crazy, Wu Ming jumped up from the ground and grabbed the reins. The horse was in pain, but he was suppressed to death, but fortunately, the coachman's horse control skills were very skillful. After a while, it was calmed down. Wu Ming breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Li Yuan's extremely loud voice shouted: "All disperse, prepare for battle." There seemed to be a strange magic in this voice, and the commotion of the crowd suddenly subsided. All the warriors calmed their dwarf mules and horses, and then watched warily at the enemy above.
