"Who are you? Why did it come from above the snow? Among the alien cavalry, a man who looked like a general jumped out of the horse, and the amazing thing was that he was speaking a certain dialect of the Han people, although this person did not speak the Guanzhong language, but there was no doubt that he belonged to the Han language family, so Li Ling could barely understand the meaning of his words, and the more important thing was that the man who looked like a general looked different from these alien cavalry, but a typical Han appearance.

"Han Chinese?" Li Ling asked suspiciously.

The military general saw that Li Ling and the others were seriously injured one by one, and they didn't look like Qiang people, so he lowered his vigilance a little and said: "The general is Deng Song, the former general under the command of the King of Yunnan, who are you?" ”

"I am Li Ling, the commander of Hanoi County" Li Ling heard the word King of Dian, and then remembered that Huo Guang also sent people to recruit Zhuang Sitong, the king of Yunnan, and asked the king of Dian to send troops to block the road of the Qiang people from the snow to the south, in front of these cavalry, Li Ling already knew that Zhuang Sitong had returned to the Han Dynasty, and this former general Deng Song was here to intercept the Qiang people!

"Do you have a certificate?" As soon as he heard Li Ling's identity, Deng Song turned over and dismounted and asked Li Ling solemnly.

Li Ling stretched out his hand and groped in his arms for a while, then took out something wrapped in brocade, opened the brocade to reveal a copper seal inside, "This is my official seal, I see that you should also be Han, you can recognize the words on it, right?" Li Ling handed the official seal forward and said.

Deng Song saw Li Ling take out the official seal, and he already believed in it, and then respectfully went up to take the official seal, took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, and then handed it back to Li Ling with the official seal in both hands, and said: "Deng Song, the former general of the Dian Kingdom, has seen Lord Duwei. ”

Now that Dian has become a vassal state of the Han Dynasty, although Deng Song is a former general of the Dian State, the captain of the Han Dynasty is already a senior general, and as a member of the state, Deng Song must also be treated with courtesy.

"General Deng is polite, I will be ordered by the Marquis of Anyang to find the Qiang King's City, and then borrow it to return to the Dian Kingdom, and I will have to bother the general in some places." Li Ling also politely returned the salute to Deng Song.

"This is not the place to talk, Lord Lieutenant, please go to the front camp to rest." As soon as Deng Song heard that Li Ling and others were looking for the later Dian Kingdom of Qiang Wangcheng, and they were ordered by Huo Guang, he was immediately in awe, and hurriedly asked his soldiers to help these Han soldiers get on their horses, and at the same time sent someone to inform Zhuang Sitong, the king of Dian.

When Zhuang Sitong brought the best doctors and unique medicinal materials of the Dian Kingdom to treat Li Ling and others, a team of soldiers and horses sent by the Dian State began to send the news that Li Ling had broken through the Qiang Wangcheng and beheaded Cangyang Liangyuan to Chang'an and Mobei, and almost when Li Ling broke through the Qiang Wangcheng, Huo Guangsuo's troops also crossed thousands of miles of grassland and arrived at the southernmost point of the Qiang people's life.

In Chang'an City, Du Yannian finally managed to gather 20,000 people after more than a month of recruitment. However, when he planned to leave Chang'an with 20,000 people and go to Longdi to support Dongfang Shuo, a sudden accident caused these 20,000 people to stop outside Chang'an City.

"His Royal Highness the Prince ordered that Jingzhao Yin Du Yannian will recruit the people to stay, Chang'an City is now empty of garrisons, and these young and strong people need to stay and guard Chang'an." A prince guard with a hundred people in the East Palace blocked Du Yannian's way.

When Liu learned that Du Yannian was going to leave Chang'an with 20,000 young men and go to Longdi Pass, he was shocked into a cold sweat and hurriedly sent someone to intercept Du Yannian. Because in Liu's opinion, if Du Yannian left with 20,000 young men and did not block the Qiang people, then the Qiang people would come to Chang'an City again, then Chang'an City would not even have the people who could defend the city.

Du Yannian looked at the waiter in the East Palace, his brows furrowed slightly, he didn't expect the prince to come out to stop him. At that moment, he took a slight breath, and then immediately stepped forward and said to the chamberlain of the East Palace: "This official is also acting on the orders of the Marquis of Anyang, and I also ask the chamberlain to tell His Royal Highness the Prince, don't embarrass the minister!" ”

Du Yannian moved out of Huo Guang, speaking of which, the current crown prince is still promoted by Huo Guang, plus the relationship between Wei Huo's relatives, I think the prince will not be too embarrassed by himself.

Speaking of Huo Guang, the waiter also showed a look of embarrassment on his face. However, he was only acting on orders, so he could only say helplessly: "Don't dare to disobey the prince's order, Jing Zhaoyin, please go back." ”

"But I also have to go," Du Yannian said helplessly, regardless of the chamberlain and the prince's guard in front of him, he continued to move forward with a group of Jing Zhaoyin's soldiers, and the 20,000 young men behind him did not know why they also continued to move forward.

"Bold, are you blatantly disobeying the will of the prison state?" The prince's chamberlain was also shocked, he never expected Du Yannian to be so arrogant, this is a blatant disobedience to the prince's order, the prince is now a prisoner, what is the difference between this and resisting the decree?

"Master Hou's order must not be violated!" Du Yannian didn't mean to stop at all, the two sides were already tense, and some of the soldiers had even come out of their sheaths.

"Du Yannian, are there any loneliness in your eyes?" Suddenly, an angry shout came from the direction of Chang'an, and Du Yannian turned around to see that it was the prince's guard of honor, and the crown prince Liu Juzheng was standing on the carriage and glaring at him.

"The minister greets His Royal Highness the Prince," Du Yannian did not hesitate to dismount and pay respects.

Liu Ju's face was not good-looking, mainly because he had been anxious recently, as soon as he heard that Du Yannian had taken away 20,000 young men, he hurriedly sent someone to intercept Du Yannian, and then Liu Ju decided to come in person without worry, and he saw the tense scene just now.

"Now that Chang'an is on the occasion of employing people, Jing Zhaoyin will take people to stay, if the Qiang people enter Chang'an, they will need to rely on Jing Zhaoyin." Liu Yi suppressed the anger in his heart and persuaded Du Yannian with kind words. Now that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has taken away most of the ministers and nobles, Du Yannian, Jing Zhaoyin, is already a real important minister in Chang'an City.

Du Yannian got up slightly, looked up at the crown prince, and then said with an anxious face: "Your Highness, now that Dongfang Shuo has more than 10,000 people in his hands, how to block the 100,000 army of the Qiang people, and once the Longdi Pass is broken, the Qiang people will be able to drive straight in, whether they will attack Chang'an or not." At that time, the entire land of Guanzhong will be exposed to the iron hooves of the Qiang people, and the millions of Li people will become fish and meat under the knife of the Qiang people. If we can rush to the aid of Longdi Pass, we may be able to hold on for a while with the benefit of the pass, and then the Marquis of Anyang will return and make the Qiang people retreat! Du Yannian spoke earnestly and elaborated on the pros and cons.

"Hmph, if you take these people away, if Chang'an loses at that time, who of you and I can afford this responsibility? Now I order you, in your capacity as a prisoner, to bring the people back to Chang'an at once. "Liu Ju directly sacrificed his identity as a prisoner to oppress people.

Du Yannian looked at the prince Liu Yi with a tight expression, he didn't expect the prince to be so direct, but after only a short period of distraction, Du Yannian suddenly said with a solemn expression: "The minister acted on the orders of the Marquis of Anyang, and now that the Marquis of Anyang Huang Yue has joined him, his order is His Majesty's order, and the minister has to obey it!" ”

"Du Yannian, are you going to disobey Lone's will? Come and take down Du Yannian. Liu regarded himself as standing in the name of righteousness, and he actually wanted to take down Du Yannian directly.

"Who dare?" Du Yannian suddenly burst into a loud shout, and at the same time drew the sword at his waist, glaring angrily at several princely guards who stepped forward.

"Du Yannian, do you want to rebel?" Liu Ju is now furious, in his opinion, Du Yannian is a little ignorant, and he provokes the majesty of him, the prince of the prison country.

"Hmph, His Royal Highness the Prince, you are still only a prisoner of the country, not the Emperor of the Han Dynasty!" Du Yannian looked at Liu Ju and directly said his heartfelt words.

Now this situation is indeed very embarrassing, the crown prince has great natural rights, but Huo Guang has Huang Yue, and his words and deeds can legally represent the emperor. At this time, there is nothing wrong with obeying the prince of the prison country or Huo Guang.

Du Yannian's words directly made Liu Ju even more angry, and he also became annoyed and angry, and directly ordered: "Du Yannian openly resisted the decree and corrected him on the spot." ”

At this time, the gap between the identities is reflected, even if Du Yannian can use Huo Guang's matter of Huang Yue to improve the legal basis for his actions, but he is only a courtier after all, and Liu Ju is the king.

"The prince is slow" Just when he saw that the situation could not end well, the voice of the general Wei Qing finally came from the rear.

Now Wei Qing is dressed in armor, and several horses are behind him. Although there are only a few people, the momentum on Wei Qing's body seems to have thousands of troops behind him, which makes people look awe-inspiring at a glance!

"Uncle"

"I've Seen the General"

The crown prince Liu Ju and Du Yannian both saluted Wei Qing, and now the Qiang people may come to Chang'an City at any time, and Chang'an has not been chaotic, and even maintains normal business and trade activities, a big reason is because Wei Qing, the pillar of the empire, is still in Chang'an City, and sometimes the role of a person is so incredible.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Chang'an has a population of one million, and the food is enough to support it for several years, even if the Qiang soldiers are in the city, they can hold on. Now Longdi is in danger, but it is a great threat to the entire Guanzhong Plain. Why don't you let Du Yannian bring people to reinforcements? If it is kept, it will also be the welfare of the people, and it will also be a great contribution of His Highness. Wei Qing's voice was calm, and he naturally had a convincing feeling when he said it.

"This will be according to the general's wishes, go back to the palace" Liu Ju glared at Du Yannian, and then ordered to return to the palace with some anger.

"Let's go!" Wei Qing ignored the prince's departure, but looked at Du Yannian and waved his hand.

"Thank you, General." Du Yannian bowed to Wei Qing, then turned over and continued to run to Longdi Pass with 20,000 young men.

Just when Du Yannian and the crown prince were fighting outside Chang'an City, in the Mutual Aid Medical Center, Huo Tang looked at the map on the desk in front of him, kept measuring in the southwest direction with his fingers, and whispered to himself: "If it is according to the second brother's plan, then they should start from here, and finally arrive here, then they will finally go to Qianwei From the perspective of time, it should be here for another ten days, and they should withdraw from the Qiang grassland." ”

The route inferred by Huo Tang is almost exactly the same as the route traveled by Huo Guang, and the time is roughly the same. Then Huo Tang quickly picked up the brush and quickly wrote a letter on another desk.

"Someone." Huo Tang shouted outside the house, and when a guard from the Hou Mansion of Anyang walked in, Huo Tang had already sealed the envelope.

"Send this letter to the commander of Qianwei immediately, he will know what to do when he sees the letter, and bring more people to deliver it as quickly as possible." Huo Tang handed the envelope to the guard and commanded.

"No." The guard bowed down and put the envelope close to him, then turned and left.

During the Southern Expedition, Huo Tang had been in charge of the nine southeastern counties and Qianwei County for a long time, and this Qianwei Commander was also used by Huo Guang in the Southern Expedition, so Huo Tang could directly use Huo Guang's seal to mobilize this person to act.
