When Cheng Ji heard Uncle Clan say this, he was a little relieved.

Cheng Er took a sip of wine and handed over the wine gourd, Cheng Ji shook his hand after thinking about it, and said:

"Don't drink, don't drink, we're afraid."

"Timid."

Cheng Er put away the wine gourd and looked around the darkness, there were soldiers patrolling the city not far away, and there were torches lighting every other section, but he could only see a little range of the city wall.

"Uncle, have you fought before?"

Cheng Ji held Changge, looked at Cheng Er, who was holding his arm on the side, and the old god was there, and continued to ask:

"What was it like when the barbarian attacked the Great Wall?"

"Haven't you seen the Turkic Huns?"

"I've seen it, why haven't I seen it! How many times have our village been killed by barbarians, we hate it! The year before last, the Turks went to Guyuan, and the people in our village all entered Guyuan City, and the head of the village, Cheng Cripple, ran slowly, and the Turks were caught, and they were killed directly under the city, and we saw him when we carried the dead later. ”

"That's great, haven't you seen it."

Cheng Er shrugged his shoulders, and Cheng Ji was a little embarrassed and said:

"Let's this, we don't know how the barbarians fight the Great Wall, our Great Wall is so high, the wall is so thick, how can those barbarians come over every few years? Why doesn't the imperial court arrange more people on the wall, uncle, you see, it's such a long time, just the two of us, and there are other people so far away, can you really prevent it? ”

"Defense? How long is this Great Wall, do you know no, thousands of miles, if you put all the people in the world on the city wall, they may not be full, we are not here to defend against barbarians. ”

"Huh? Don't guard against the barbarians, what are we doing here? ”

Cheng Er grabbed Cheng Ji's arm, pointed to a beacon tower in the distance, and said:

"If you see a large number of barbarians, or a large number of cattle and sheep, coming to us, don't think about anything, just go and get the torch, and try your best to light the beacon, just throw the torch into the pit."

"So, what about after that?"

"After that, you will be able to see the continuous beacon fire, your mother-in-law and baby, you can run into Guyuan City in time to avoid the disaster, the court will send a large army to block the barbarians, the barbarians will stop in the Guyuan area, burn and kill for a while, some of the unlucky and slow runners will be caught and killed, but the barbarians will definitely withdraw."

Cheng Er's expression of remembrance said:

"There were a few times when we didn't retreat, but we followed the army for a while, fought a few times, and left."

"Uncle, we know what you said, what we said is that we lit the beacon tower, and then what are we doing, standing at the head of the city and watching the barbarians pass?"

"That's not possible, if the barbarians come to our section, most of them will have to go to the three passes, where the gate is closed, and when the gate is opened, they can ride war horses, which is the three passes three miles ahead."

Cheng Er paused, showed a serious expression and said:

"As for us, we lit a beacon fire and died generously."

"Huh? W-that's waiting to die? ”

"Why don't you die, you still want to fight back the barbarians with one person? Or are you afraid of death and barbarians? ”

"We're not afraid of barbarians!"

Seeing Cheng Ji's excited expression, Cheng Er smiled in his heart.

Of course, he knew that if the barbarians came to climb the city wall, they would light the beacon fire, and they would complete their task, and they could quickly assemble at the pass and prepare to defend against the invasion.

They are patrolling and sentry, just like scouts, how can they go and die generously?

Who in the world is not afraid of death? If you haven't fought yet, the boss will tell you, "Your post, you will be brave and righteous when the enemy comes", I am afraid that no one will want to stand guard on this Great Wall.

But he was just joking, teasing his distant nephew. Sure enough, I saw that the eldest nephew's legs began to shake a little.

People, I'm still afraid of death.

"Come, make a drink, if the barbarian comes tonight, the sun won't be seen tomorrow, don't drink in vain."

Cheng Er handed over the wine gourd again, and this time Cheng Ji took the wine gourd, took a big sip, his eyes were red, and he said to himself:

"Uncle, we still have a daughter-in-law, my daughter-in-law just gave birth to a baby, you know, you are a veteran, the barbarian is really coming, don't die, you run, you go back and tell our daughter-in-law, we didn't embarrass the Guyuan people, let's ......"

Cheng Er was a little dumbfounded, laughed and patted Cheng Ji's shoulder, interrupting Cheng Ji's self-talk, and then said:

"Look at your stupidity, uncle's ...... with you"

Before he could finish speaking, his tongue suddenly stopped.

Cheng Ji looked at Cheng Er's mouth open, and the sound of "uh-uh-uh......" came out of his mouth, as if the bellows was leaking wind and couldn't catch the air.

"Uncle?"

Cheng Ji took a step forward, and then heard the sound of "tick, tick".

"Uncle?"

Cheng Ji shouted again, and Cheng Er in front of him just trembled, and then the clothes on his chest suddenly tightened and bulged, and with a "snort", the clothes behind the armor were torn.

The bright red knife, cutting the tether of the armor, came out of the middle of the body, and the blood flowed out along the open blood trough, and along the armor, it was bright red in an instant.

"Run...... Run ......"

Cheng Er's voice was like a leaky ball.

Behind Cheng Er, a man in a leather jacket slowly poked his head out, grinning with yellow teeth and smiling hideously.

There was no hair on the top of the forehead, and it looked like it had been shaved off, and the hair on both sides was tied up into braids and fell one by one on the rough face.

It looks like a child's hairstyle when I was a child.

"Barbarian, barbarian ......"

Cheng Ji took a step back, and then heard someone shouting:

"The barbarian knocked! Light the Beacon! Beacon ——! ”

And much more, the wailing and groaning of people when they die.

Cheng Ji turned his head to look at the beacon tower behind him, there was still someone guarding him across the section, and the man rushed straight to the beacon, but halfway through, a barbarian crashed out, and stabbed the man in the stomach, and the knife stirred, and the soldier fell.

"Beacon...... Beacon ......"

Cheng Ji pulled his legs and ran, and he also glanced back at the barbarian behind him, but the barbarian didn't catch up, and pushed Cheng Er's body to the side with a knife.

Cheng Ji continued to run, and when he turned around, he saw a barbarian appearing in front of him, who had just climbed up from the city, Cheng Ji didn't dare to stop, and continued to rush forward.

The barbarian who had killed one person earlier shouted something he didn't understand, and rushed towards Cheng Ji.

"Ah——!h

Cheng Ji raised Changge in his hand and stabbed Changge forward like he had trained.

The barbarian obviously didn't expect that this soldier would dare to resist, and his body could be dodged to the side, but Cheng Ji was young after all, with great strength and speed, and that Changge stabbed through the barbarian's side waist at once.

The barbarian screamed again, Cheng Ji wanted to pull Changge out, but found that the barbarian actually grabbed Changge tightly, and he couldn't pull it out!

Someone was already chasing after him, Cheng Ji shouted again, pushed Chang Ge to the side with the brute, let go and threw Chang Ge away, and then pulled his legs and continued to rush towards the beacon tower.

There were only two torches left from the beacon, and Cheng Ji didn't know how far it was, so he stared at the torch and ran as if he was dead.

There was a pain in his back, as if something was on his shoulder, and he raised his shoulder to continue running, but found that his right hand could not be raised.

But he didn't stop, and rushed past the corpses of his comrades towards the beacon tower that was close at hand, but his calf hurt again, and he fell to the ground hard.

Bang!

His forehead hit the steps heavily, and his ears made a tinnitus like ringing gold, Cheng Ji felt dizzy, and the scenes in front of him seemed to overlap together.

He looked down at his leg, and a rough arrow stuck in his calf, piercing his entire calf.

"Beacon ...... Beacon ......"

Cheng Ji gritted his teeth, climbed up the steps with his hands and feet, and in front of the beacon tower, two huge torches lit were right in front of him.

But one foot stepped on Cheng Ji's back.

"Want to do something?"

The voice of someone behind him talking was broken Chinese.

Cheng Ji lay on the ground, and then felt that someone turned him over, and saw a barbarian who was dressed differently from other barbarians, with a strong body like a cow, and various bones, gold, silver, ironware and other pendants on his body.

He had a torch in his hand, and the red flame was imprinted on his face.

"Do you want this?"

The brute held the torch and handed it over and said it again.

Cheng Ji looked at the torch, he stretched out his hand to snatch the torch and light the beacon tower that was close at hand, but it was still a little short, and he didn't reach it.

The barbarians gathered more and more, and let out a laughing sound.

But in the dark night, a beacon tower not far away, the flames rose up, and I vaguely saw a soldier guarding the Great Wall, with four arrows stuck in his back, and fell into the flames head-on.

The leader looked up at the lighted beacon, and then the second, and then the third, and the fourth......

Stretch for miles!

The leader held the scimitar and looked at Cheng Ji in front of him, but Cheng Ji looked at the beacon fire that was burning in turn, and then turned his head and looked at the leader.

His lips trembled, twitched a few times, and suddenly he cried out aloud:

"Lao Tzu killed your mother——!"

The scimitar swung down, and the shouting stopped abruptly.

Under the night sky, the beacon fire burned one after another.

…………

The hard farriers stepped into the dirt and picked up the mud mixed with the grass roots.

The sound of horses' hooves resounded in the night.

A knight galloping under the moonlit night, with four blood-red feathers tied behind him.

Eight hundred miles expedited!
