A rain of arrows shot at the moment, and more than a dozen * soldiers fell off their horses.

Immediately followed by the earth-shattering sound of rushing and killing, the two enemy forces in front of them came in a double snake formation.

Looking at the formation, the enemy army is about 1,500 people, all of whom are elite. * Suddenly in danger and struggling to cope with the war.

The two vanguards of the enemy army led dozens of guards to closely surround Zhang Kuoshan and chase and kill unremittingly.

They couldn't recognize which one was the county lord, so they had to assume that she must be hiding among the lieutenants beside Zhang Kuoshan.

The county lord of Shengping and Zhang Kuoshan are not bad, but in the face of the siege of dozens of elites, it is gradually difficult to parry.

The soldiers around him fell one after another. If this continues, I am afraid that it will not take half an hour before it will be annihilated by the enemy.

Zhang Kuoshan's heart was horizontal, and he immediately led his guards to protect the county lord and broke through in the direction of Tongguan.

Among the vanguard of the enemy army, there was a rugged figure, born with the appearance of a Turk, with thick beard and eagle eyes, brave and fierce.

He has been paying close attention to the people around Zhang Kuoshan, and when he saw the change of formation, he protected a character dressed as a lieutenant in the middle.

Immediately, he jumped up and burst into the battle circle, raising his sword and slashing down.

This sword seemed to have a thousand powers, and it was a surprise attack, and the county lord was surrounded in the middle, and it was difficult for the horses to mediate.

There is no way to avoid it.

When Zhang Kuoshan saw it, he was stunned, and instinctively jumped up, risking his life to take the knife for the county lord.

"Open-" shouted a male voice.

I saw a wooden cart thrown in the air, collapsing and rolling, and knocking the long knife out of the battle circle.

A white shadow came suddenly.

The enemy general was frustrated and could not react for a moment, and a long blade pierced the back of his head from his throat.

The person who came kicked over the enemy general, drew back his blade, snatched the enemy general's war horse, and was in a scuffle with the enemy at the moment.

Blocking knives. Killer. Grab the horse. It was almost done in an instant.

At the same time, I heard the sound of the horn behind me, and a **** elite came to cover up.

"Oh no, the fourth prince died in battle. ”

"Retreat, the fourth prince is dead. ”

The enemy was in a panic.

The lord of Shengping County looked like a person, not a * general, but he was dressed as a gentleman, with a slender blade in his hand, the knife was not like a knife, the sword was not like a sword, white as a crane feather, and there was no trace of blood.

"Guo Xuan—"

The county lord pushed away Zhang Kuoshan, who was lying on his body, and flew to Guo Yao's horse, hugged him tightly, and refused to let go.

The ensuing battle lasted less than half an hour.

The remaining enemy general, seeing that the tide was turning, led the remnants to defeat in a hurry.

More than 800 enemies were annihilated. More than 300 prisoners.

The men and horses led by Zhang Kuoshan suffered heavy losses, with more than 500 dead and wounded. The 1,000 elite horsemen who came with Guo Yu took advantage of the momentum to enter, but more than a dozen people were killed and injured.

"His Royal Highness the county lord, his subordinates are incompetent and almost killed the county lord. ”

"General Zhang doesn't have to blame himself. I think it's a leak of the news, the enemy is plotting, and the blame is not yours. By the way, what is the origin of the person Guo Gongzi killed? How can I hear someone in the chaotic army calling him the fourth prince? ”

"This, when Fang just fought, he looked familiar. Judging from the current situation, it should be An Lushan's fourth son, An Qingman. He was very arrogant and brave, and killed a lot of my soldiers. When I cleaned the battlefield, I didn't see his body, thinking that he was snatched by the enemy. He also asked the county lord to condemn him. ”

"Don't be guilty, today's incident is always thanks to Guo Gongzi leading the troops to help, and it is finally a big victory. I don't think we need to go to Luoyang either. After cleaning the battlefield, put away the bloody clothes and guns, and go back to Chang'an. ”

The news that Guo Hua killed An Qingman and escorted the county lord of Shengping back safely spread throughout Chang'an for a while.

A few days later, news came from the front that confirmed their claims.

It turned out that although An Qingman was the fourth son of An Lushan, he was always trusted and favored by An Lushan because of his courage and good fighting. The battle report details that An Lushan lost his beloved son, his temperament changed greatly, he walked wildly, and he did not dare to get close to the left and right. And the old eye disease broke out, and he was almost blind. The enemy army was trapped in Luoyang and could not be attacked.

King Guangping made many good remarks in the court, and there was a few days ago at the end of Nanshan to exterminate the crow group, and Su Zong also wanted to reward Guo Yu heavily.

However, Guo Hua has no half-job and is not in the palace.

Guo Yao also blindly pushed back when he came to the court, saying that the Guo family was favored by the emperor, his father and brother deeply felt the favor of the Tang Dynasty, and Guo Yao had a stubborn temperament and did not want to be an official in the court. In short, it is a prevarication and resignation.

So the emperor has never seen Guo Hua, and he doesn't know what to reward him.

Soon, it was time to make an appointment with the White Crane Daoist.

Balmy autumn day. Autumn mornings are even more invigorating.

Early in the morning, King Guangping vacated the school ground where he was training. Bloody clothes, pigs, cattle, scarecrows, etc., have also been prepared.

The lord of Shengping immediately burned the yellow talisman. In less than a quarter of an hour's effort, I saw a sword light flying from the southwest.

The sword light converged, and the White Crane Daoist descended.

In the end, he is a monk, and he is not polite with the prince. After calling Guo Yu and the county lord, he ordered them to act according to the plan.

First of all, a wooden door was erected on the school grounds, and three or four pieces of wood were erected, which was very simple, just the appearance of a door, but it was surrounded by thick and thin wood, so this door was very tall.

A hundred steps in front of the wooden door, a Dharma altar more than one zhang high was erected.

1,000 pigs. Circled on both sides of the wooden door, each pig's ears were cut with a knife, revealing the smell of blood.

Bloody clothes were worn on the scarecrow, knives and guns were distributed, and they were tied to the scarecrow's hands. In the body of each scarecrow, a spell drawn by the White Crane Taoist was stuffed.

Scalper. Donkey. An iron nail with more than three inches of rune paper rolled into the center of the eyebrow. The cows and donkeys were immediately bloodshot and motionless. But he didn't fall to the ground, which shocked everyone present.

I was busy for almost an hour. Prepare the required steps one by one.

The White Crane Daoist slowly walked onto the altar. Guo Yu and Shengping County Lords supported them on both sides.

The White Crane Daoist took Gao Xianzhi's picture scroll, recited the mantra in his mouth, and threw the painting into the air.

The originally small picture scroll unfolded in the wind and stood firmly behind the wooden door.

The Zitong gate in the painting overlaps with the wooden door.

The mountains and rivers in the painting are like a dream, and they are gradually revealed on the school field.

The soldiers guarding the four sides had never seen such a scene, and one by one they looked at the wood carvings and clay sculptures, and their mouths were wide open, unable to speak.

The White Crane Daoist wrapped ten bamboo sticks around yellow paper charms and punched them into the ten prepared scarecrows.

The ten scarecrows walked slowly and opened the fence around the pigs. Driving the pigs, the fish rushed in and walked into the wooden door.

Passing through the tall wooden door, the scarecrow and the pigs slowly stepped into the painting, which had already become huge. Crossing the Zitong Gate, I walked on the mountain road in the painting.

The tigers, leopards, snakes and wolves in the painting smelled the smell of pig blood, and they went crazy one by one, catching the passing pigs one after another, and constantly biting and devouring them. The beasts roared, the pigs wailed, and the scene was very tragic.

Some timid soldiers, fearing that the monsters in the painting would break out, would immediately drown incontinent.

Scarecrows and pigs are not afraid, and a thousand pigs are quickly eaten by the monster in the painting.

Seeing that the monster in the painting was full, the White Crane Daoist threw all the buckets of cinnabar, and each scarecrow was stained with a lot.

The Taoist recited the incantation, and the scarecrows came out in an array as if they were alive, and rode on the donkeys and oxen that had been prepared.

And drove the remaining 100 or so cattle in the middle of the team. The mighty and mighty drove into the Zitong painting realm.

The team marched mightily, but the monsters seemed to be invisible, lying quietly on the side of the road.

After about an hour, the army of scarecrows finally reached the place where the horse team was in the painting.

I saw that they carried all the goods on the horseback in the painting to the ox. After moving, I slowly came back again.

Nothing went wrong. All the treasures in the painting were taken out.

The White Crane Daoist hurriedly ordered everyone to burn the scarecrow along with the bloody clothes. The oxen and the donkey, take out the nails, and throw them into the fire. The rest of the cattle carcasses and donkey carcasses can eat meat with confidence.

After cleaning up the mess, the White Crane Daoist quietly returned.

King Guangping thanked the passer, and immediately organized people to open Gao Xianzhi's treasure.

Sure enough, it is the Xuanjia baggage, together with the human armor, vest, knife * machine, there are 2,500 sets.

There were also eight large chests, equipped with gold and silver.

Guangping Wang Le didn't close his mouth all day. Hurriedly counted the warehousing and strictly blocked the news.

At this time, the king of Guangping stood proudly on the platform of the general in the center of the school field, and he had the pride of subduing the four seas and accepting the eight wildernesses.

End

After getting the Xuanjia baggage left by the Crow Group and Gao Xianzhi, the King of Guangping ordered the Ordnance Supervisor to gather skilled craftsmen, day and night, to create more than 300 sets of Xuanjia blades, enough to make up the number of 5,000 Xuanjia troops of Taizong.

On this day, the sky is like a wash, and the eagle strikes thousands of miles.

On the gate of Tongguan, Guo Hua, the lord of Shengping, and some civil and military officials in the court had just participated in the Xuanjia Army Oath Conference.

Overlooking the Yellow River, the wind is agitating, the flag is hundreds of miles, and the Xuanjia is bursting.

The Xuanjia Army, led by Li Siye, finally went to the front line of counterinsurgency after more than a month of training by King Guangping.

"Why don't you see His Royal Highness King Guangping, if it weren't for his old man's hard work, I'm afraid that the divine might of the Xuanjia Army would never be reproduced in the world. ”

The ceremony is over. After seeing the Xuanjia army go away, Guo Hua and the county lord of Shengping both walked down the city tower.

"It was the emperor who didn't let him come. Ask no more questions, and do not mention them before my father. ”

"Is something wrong?"

"It's not clear. Don't ask. Where are I going now? I'll go with you. ”

"Not far ahead, is the barren mound of General Gao Xianzhi, that day I heard that Du Gongzi brought news, saying that they were going to rebuild the mausoleum for General Gao, this matter also got the permission of the imperial court, and also allocated money, at this time everyone should be busy there. ”

"Oh. Let's go with us. I have secretly been to General Gao's tomb before, and now the court still has no explanation for General Gao, that Bian Lingcheng was robbed again, and I don't know when I can really rehabilitate the general. ”

The two of them descended from the castle tower and rode quickly to a wasteland.

From afar, I saw many craftsmen busy there, and a thatched pavilion was built on the side. Cen Shen and Du Huan were drinking tea there.

As soon as he saw Guo Yu and the county lord coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"Guo Gongzi, this time I can get the permission of the imperial court to rebuild the general's mausoleum, and I need more strong support from Gongzi and Brother Ling. Du surrounded his fists and saluted.

"Where, where, my father often taught my generation, General Gao has the courage of Han Xin and Zhang Liang's strategy, he is really a model for my generation, and Xiaosheng has admired the general for a long time, and his modest strength is not enough to worry about it. ”

"Guo Gongzi is so open-minded, he has been a hero since ancient times. The day before yesterday, I heard that Guo Gongzi killed An Qingman, the fourth son of An Lushan, which was really happy. ”

When Cen Shen said this, a touch of shyness appeared on the face of the county lord of Shengping.

"What a hero from ancient times. At present, Taizong's 5,000 Xuanjia army has reappeared, and the Nine Road Jiedu envoys have besieged Luoyang. It's a great opportunity for you young people to make a big difference. ”

Guo Yu looked for prestige, but saw an old man with white hair in the pavilion, elegant and elegant, with a transcendent demeanor. It was Mr. Izumi who met him at Ximing Temple that day.

"I didn't expect to be lucky enough to meet the old gentleman here. It's a pity that the younger generation is prodigal, and they are only shallow in learning, and they are really unable to serve the country. ”

"Oh, Guo Gongzi is also familiar with Mr. Quan?"

"Don't dare to be. I once had a relationship, and I really admired the old gentleman's style and knowledge. ”

"Hahahaha, yes, yes, Mr. Quan is very knowledgeable, has an outstanding demeanor, and is very admired. The old gentleman is right, Guo Gongzi, although the current chaos and thieves are declining, the former army is also the time to employ people, why doesn't Guo Gongzi join the army and make a name for himself?"

Guo Hua shirked again.

"It would not be good if Guo Gongzi was humble. Guo Lao Linggong and many of your brothers all served in the front army and fought bravely to kill the enemy, why didn't Guo Gongzi plan for his father and brother? I think that Zhou Gongjin was heroic and heroic, and Xiao Qiao was married for the first time, sharing worries for the monarch and winning the hearts of beauties. is the real hero in the world, the real hero. ”

"That's right, that's right, it's worthy of Mr. Quan. Talk has its own pattern. ”

The county lord of Shengping was even more ashamed at the moment, and took Guo Yu's hand and shook it around.

Du Huan and Cen Shen saw it in their eyes and were very happy for him. Waving his hand, signaling everyone not to continue.

Guo Yu looked at the mausoleum under construction not far away, and couldn't help but sigh, "What a few gentlemen said is very true. Life is like a passing cloud, a seven-foot seat before death, a handful of loess after death, a dignified man should be self-reliant, just like a hero like General Gao, it is not a waste of this life. ”

"Yes. Be. The crowd echoed casually.

The lord of Shengping County looked at Guo Xuan, turning from shame to joy, with a happy face.

"I just don't know when General Gao's bones will be released and sealed into the new tomb?"

"It will take about ten days to build, and when the new tomb is completed, the master of Ximing Temple will be invited to do it, and then the coffin will be opened and the bones will be moved, and buried in the new tomb. ”

"Oh, that's very good, you two are very well organized. When the time comes, Xiaosheng will definitely come to pay his respects again. ”

Hero. Arazuka. How much pride is in people's laughter.

Whether it is fame or fame, in many cases, it is impossible to tell in detail.

It's just that at this moment, a flame slowly ignited in the young man's heart.

A voice cried out from the bottom of his heart, and a beast roared in the primordial darkness.

He gently reached out and took the beauty into his arms.

In his eyes, he was full of spirit.

In the darkness under the barren mound not far away, whether it is a false name or a hero buried has long been forgotten in the sassy autumn wind.
