Chapter 522: Nanling is now a shortcut, and Hu envoy meets King Qin
Unicorn Mountain, since the last time Xiao Maha buried tens of thousands of Eastern Qin troops, the nearby mountain people no longer dare to come to hunt on the unicorn;
Coupled with the year-round snow on Unicorn Mountain, tens of thousands of bones are buried deep under the snow, and at this moment, a group of uninvited guests are ushered here. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Huo Quzhi and Di Qing were ordered by Wu Qi to travel from Nanling such as Qinzhou for ten days, and finally chose the most difficult road.
"Brother Di, this unicorn mountain is really magical, the snow on the mountain does not melt all year round, it is white, if it weren't for the number of green in front, I thought it was winter..."
Huo Quzhi looked at the white expanse of Dujiao Mountain, revealing a look of surprise.
"Hehe, Unicorn Mountain is the third highest peak in Dongzhou, the terrain is strange, and there is snow that does not melt all year round, but after the Unicorn Mountain, you and I still have to be more careful, otherwise we will be ambushed by the Eastern Qin army, and it will be too late to regret..."
Remembering that a year ago, Xiao Maha buried tens of thousands of soldiers under Li Guangbi's command in the snow as soon as he was reckless, Di Qing's face still showed a trace of vigilance.
"Since this is the case, if the Eastern Qin thieves repeat their old tricks, we will be in trouble, so I will shoot more scouts to investigate..."
Huo Quzhi also nodded, putting away his relaxed expression.
"Two generals, I caught two mountain people who went up the mountain to chop wood in the mountains, general, do you want to..."
An adjutant general rode his horse and said that the mountain man made a motion to wipe his neck.
"No, bring it here, Ben will have something to ask him!"
No one knew the expression under Di Qing's bronze mask, but Huo Quai, on the other hand, was expressionless, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Soon, a young man and a middle-aged man were brought over, both of whom were powerful and trembling at this time.
"Ben will ask you two some questions, I am satisfied with the answer, Ben will be rewarded, if you dare to hide half a point, Ben will not be merciful!"
Di Qing's terrifying bronze mask stared at the two fathers and sons, and the two of them were so frightened that they knelt on the ground at this time.
"The general just asks, the villain will never dare to hide half a point..."
"Okay, you two are nearby mountain people, are you familiar with the terrain around Unicorn Mountain? Can there be an Eastern Qin army stationed on the north side of Dujiao Mountain? ā
Under Di Qing's empty mask, a deep voice sounded, extremely majestic, and the two of them were uneasy and lowered their heads.
"Back to the general's words, the villain has lived near the Dujiao Mountain for generations, and is very familiar with the terrain of the Dujiao Mountain, as for the north of the Dujiao Mountain, it has now been built by the Eastern Qin Army, and no one can get through..."
The middle-aged man looked at the angry cavalry of the Northern Hell Army, his heart was pounding, and he nervously said what he knew.
"A checkpoint has been built in the north? Are you serious? ā
As soon as he heard that the Eastern Qin Army had built a checkpoint on the north side of Dujiao Mountain, Huo Quzhi's face became a little ugly, and he hurriedly shouted.
"The general spares his life, the villain's words are true, he will never dare to hide the general, and please show mercy to the general, bypass the villain and my child..."
When the middle-aged man heard this, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Okay, don't be afraid, as long as you cooperate well, Ben will never harm your life, Ben will ask you, do you know if there is any other way to enter Qinzhou?"
Seeing that this middle-aged man was so timid, Di Qing immediately interrupted and began to ask about other shortcuts.
"It's... Generals, the villain really knows that there is a secret path that can cross the South Ridge, but..."
When the middle-aged man heard this, he hesitated slightly, and then spoke.
"But what? Don't ramble, tell the truth! ā
Huo Quzhi heard that there were other shortcuts to take at this time, so he showed an eager look and scolded sharply.
"It's not that the villain hesitates, it's really that the road is very dangerous, it's a crack after a mountain cracks, and from time to time boulders fall, it's very dangerous, rugged and difficult to walk..."
The middle-aged man smiled bitterly, not that he didn't say it, but that he said it, and when the time came, people were not satisfied, and they killed his father and son in a fit of anger.
"Hmph, don't say that the road is dangerous, it's difficult, how can it be difficult to stop my Northern Underworld Army? You just have to lead the way, and the benefits are indispensable to you..."
Huo Quzhi saw that there was no shortcut to break through Nanling, and when he said that there was a shortcut, where could he care about the road danger...
Half a day later, under the leadership of the mountain people, Di Qing and Huo Qubing led their troops to an extremely narrow valley.
This valley is surrounded by steep rocks on both sides, no more than two or three meters wide, which can be said to be a crack in the mountain, and it is difficult to say whether there is a road on the opposite side.
"You two, ride in and check to see if it's blocked!"
Di Qing was obviously quite cautious, for fear that this crack would be blocked, and when tens of thousands of cavalry were trapped, it would be too late to regret it.
While the others stayed at Taniguchi, waiting for news from the people who had been sent out...
Three hours later, the footsteps of war horses were heard from the rift, and everyone looked fixedly.
"General, this rift valley can pass through the South Ridge, but there are many boulders blocking the road on the way, the narrowest part, only about seven feet, and there are falling rocks from time to time, which is quite dangerous..."
After listening to the scout's report, Di Qing was silent, this rift was too dangerous, and if the enemy army was heavily guarded, the tens of thousands of soldiers would definitely end up dead or alive...
Di Qing and Huo Qubing glanced at each other, Huo Qubing understood, and ordered someone to bring the father and son over.
"Ben will ask you, is there anyone else in this place who knows about it but you?"
For the sake of the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers, Huo Qubing didn't dare to be careless, so he stared at the mountain man viciously.
"Back to the general's words, when the villain was chasing a hare at a time in this place, he accidentally found it, and as for whether the others knew, the villain didn't dare to pack the ticket."
The mountain man showed fear in his eyes, and then he said stiffly.
"Okay, as long as Ben Jiang can pass Nanling smoothly this time, Ben will never treat you badly!"
Di Qing was silent for a moment, and then opened his mouth to promise.
"Villain, thank you, General!"
"However, this time you and your son will have to enter the rift valley with Ben, and if you play any tricks, Ben will make you regret coming to this world..."
Di Qing's voice changed, and his tone was extremely cold from his mouth, as if it was a voice from Jiuyou, which made people's backs cold.
"The villain doesn't dare!"
"It better be!"
Soon, Huo Quzhi and Di Qing led 20,000 cavalry into the rift valley one after another, and as for the father and son of the mountain people, they naturally entered the rift valley with the army.
At this time, the Eastern Qin army stationed in the Nanling fortress was completely undecided, and it seemed confident because there was no disturbance from the enemy army.
Outside Beiling Pass, Wu Qi sent Chang Yuchun and Cheng Biting Jin to call for battle every day to cover for Huo Qubing and Di Qing.
In Xuanwu City, Qinzhou, Li Shimin ushered in a special guest, who traveled thousands of miles, trekked through mountains and rivers, and came from the north of Mengzhou.
"Your Excellency, is your father okay? Can my Hera tribe be considered Ansheng? You're here, but the temple has a new mission? ā
Li Shimin's words were very respectful, and listening to his tone, it seemed that his father was still alive.
"Hehe, Hera Clan Yuanhong is still fine, with the protection of the temple, the Hera clan is thriving, this time this envoy went south to inform you of one thing..."
The bearded guy with a stubly beard in his hand was holding a leg of mutton and talking as he ate.
"Oh, I don't know what?"
"Let you be prepared, if you can't do anything, immediately withdraw to the northern grasslands, this is also your father's intention, but before leaving, you can do it cheaply!"
When the envoy said this, his tone became very cold and murderous.
When Li Shimin heard this, he was silent, and even the tribe and the temple had no confidence in him, which undoubtedly showed that he had failed to do so...
Thinking of this, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Your Excellency, please rest assured, the people of the Hera clan know what to do, the envoy has worked hard from afar, so I will order someone to take you down to rest..."
After the envoy left, Li Shimin's face became extremely gloomy, even with a hint of hideousness and horror... (To be continued!) ļ¼
