On the rugged mountain road, a long red dragon composed of people is slowly advancing. On both sides of the mountain road, there are undulating mountains, and you can vaguely see the snow glistening in the sunlight on the top of the distant mountain.

The ground was hard, icy frozen soil, and when you landed on it, it was like you had kicked a steel plate, without the slightest hint of the soft texture that the earth should have.

In front of this long red dragon, you can vaguely see a Chinese-style fortress, with a square city wall topped with red bricks and yellow tiles, but now, the yellow tiles are piled up with snow. It's stuck between the towering mountains on both sides of the road, and the terrain is indescribably dangerous!

On the gray-white city wall, you can see a layer of translucent white frost attached. Even without any physical contact, you can feel the chill coming from above just by looking at it.

Above the city gate hole, there is a line of relief of Dou Da Chinese characters, from right to left, written "Hangu Pass".

Han Xing had never been to the real world Xiongguan - Hangu Pass, or rather, he even doubted whether there was still a place in reality. Come to think of it, this Xiongguan, which once shined in the Qin and Han dynasties, has been annihilated in the long river of history~

But as an authentic Celestial Empire, Han Xing has also seen the Great Wall, although it is only through TV and photos, it does not prevent him from understanding the majesty and magnificence of the Great Wall.

But even the Great Wall is slightly inferior to the danger of this Hangu Pass in front of you! Judging from his battle-hardened military vision, the Hangu Pass in front of him, even if it is a million army, will not want to take it! It can be described as a serious "one husband is a pass, and ten thousand people are not open"!

A thin layer of frost is attached to the towering city walls, and the cold wind blowing down from the snowy peaks of the Kunlun Mountains on both sides keeps the temperature below zero all year round. The road leading to this Hangu Pass is only a rugged and difficult frozen mountain road in front of you.

It is hard to imagine how many lives it would cost to set up a position in the rugged mountains less than a kilometer wide after a half-month-long and arduous mountain march in the rugged mountains with a width of less than a kilometer! Not to mention that once they enter the ant-attached siege city, the defenders will only have to pour cold water on the city walls, at this temperature, the flowing water will soon freeze, or it will not be long before the entire city will become a slippery ice city, and the city gates will freeze as hard as steel plates!

Even with the artillery of the Napoleonic era, in such a valley less than a kilometer wide, it would be a fool's dream to conquer this fortress! Unless the defenders of the city are not equipped with any powerful long-range equipment such as catapults, bed crossbows, etc., or they don't fight back like fools. Otherwise, even the army of the Napoleonic era would have to walk around without food!

Not to mention, even if there were a million-strong army, if the attack was thwarted that day, they would have to spend the night in this cold, hard, barren canyon of frozen soil. What awaits them will be a cruel night when the cold wind blows mercilessly and the temperature plummets to more than ten degrees below zero! And when they can't continue, it is simply difficult to get out of this rugged valley in the Kunlun Mountains with all their beards and tails! I am afraid that their fate will only be worse than that of the French and German armies that invaded Siberia one after another!

Fortunately, for the Han soldiers, Hangu Pass symbolized not the cold, solid gray and white city walls, endless hunger and cold, but the warm fire, hot meals, and a good night's sleep.

After entering Hangu Pass, Han Xing's prisoner car was parked on an empty training ground. The wind and snow that blew down from the Kunlun Mountains fell on Han Xing's body mercilessly, and it only took a moment of effort to turn him into a "snowman". The goose feathers covered his beard and hair, making it look like a legendary rare species, the Siberian Yeti, or Santa Claus.

However, our protagonist is an evolution of the T-virus with a physique that is different from ordinary people, and he doesn't feel very cold. In fact, those who have achieved internal merit in cultivation can do so without fear of cold and heat. And Han Xing can, of course, from a scientific point of view, as an evolution of the T virus, Han Xing's subtle control of his body has reached the pinnacle. Therefore, he can choose to block out the perception of cold and heat. And because of his strong resilience, he doesn't have to worry about freezing to death~

Perhaps thinking that he was still valuable, in the spirit of humanitarianism, the Han soldiers escorted him to a cell and gave him two steamed buns that were already cold and even a little stiff. It's no wonder that they, judging from the residual heat of the steamed buns, it seems to be fresh, but it's too cold here, so it's cool fast~

However, Han Xing didn't plan to eat any cold steamed buns, he directly and quietly opened the door of space. Of course, he only opened a small hole with a radius of about 10 centimeters, washed his hands carefully, and then asked someone to bring him bread, sausages, roast chicken, and red wine, and fill it up. As for the two steamed buns, in order to avoid arousing suspicion, they were also accepted.

The next day, as soon as it was dawn, the Han army continued on its way. As soon as he came out of the letter to Guguan, Han Xing suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment, as if he had walked into the big wardrobe leading to "Narnia World":

Hangu Pass and the Kunlun Mountains, which stretch for hundreds of miles on both sides and cannot be seen at a glance, have finally come to an end at this moment, as if they are the dividing line between the two worlds! Behind him is the cruel winter of cold, harsh and frozen soil, but in front of him is the warm spring of Vientiane renewal and full of flowers.

In front of you is a gentle loess mountain road in the shape of a slope, which is wide and smooth, and seems to be constantly maintained. On the slopes on both sides of the road, white and yellow mountain flowers bloom. You can vaguely hear the sound of the rushing water of the waterfall in your ears, and follow the sound, but you can see a wide waterfall on the left hand, falling from the snow-covered white snow of the Kunlun Mountains, turning into a Baizhang waterfall, rushing down. Its momentum is huge, like thousands of horses galloping, thousands of thunderbolts. The water turned into a belt of jade and meandered down the hillside to the distant sky.

Wherever the river meanders, you can vaguely see patches of verdant and vibrant fields, and farmers wearing hats are busy shuttling through them. More than a dozen thatched huts are dotted in this world, and smoke rises one after another.

In an instant, Han Xing's eyes were a little moist, the Eastern Dynasty of the infinite world may not be Han Xing's hometown, but the taste of hometown is everywhere, this is where the heart of every Chinese son and daughter belongs, and where the soul belongs!

The winding river, the verdant fields, and the curling smoke all evoke Han Xing's beautiful yearning for pastoral life. Sunrise, sunset, strange traffic, chickens and dogs smell each other, may be unpretentious, but there is no dispute with the world, this is the nostalgia hidden in the blood of every Chinese child. Just like the description of "My Motherland", which can be called the "second national anthem": a big river has wide waves, and the wind blows the rice and flowers on both sides. My family lives on the shore, and I am used to hearing the trumpet of the captain and seeing the white sails on the river········

The mighty Han army marched along this long river for several days, a quaint square city came into view, although it is not as dangerous as the terrain of Hangu Pass, but the city wall built of standard square bricks adds a bit of solemnity and heaviness, and the rich cultural atmosphere comes to the face, just like a famous city style!

When I walked into the city gate, I saw that the city gate hole said [Chang'an City]!

"Chang'an City?" Han Xing's heart was excited, although the modern Xi'an City has inherited the mantle of Chang'an and has antique, majestic and magnificent ancient buildings, but it has been nearly a thousand years since the heyday of the Han and Tang Dynasties!

Just as Li Bai sighed in the poem "Ascending Jinling Phoenix Terrace", "The flowers and plants of the Wu Palace are buried in the secluded path, and the Jin Dynasty is dressed as an ancient mound."

The vicissitudes of life in this world, a thousand years of time, is enough to bury the prosperity of the past. Today's Xi'an, you may still be able to find a trace of thick and solemn historical heritage, but it lacks the grandeur of being a great king when the Tang Dynasty was strong!

Being able to see the magnificent Chang'an City during the Tang Dynasty is the dream of every historical hobby! And Han Xing is no exception, the neat and spacious brick and stone streets, the busy, crowded streets, the towering palaces with red and black as the main color in the distance, as well as the antique shops along the streets, and the pedestrians with high crowns and broad belts, all make Han Xing feel that he is in the prosperous era of the Han and Tang dynasties that he dreamed of. So much so that he ignored the indifferent gazes of the people along the street looking at him, as well as the merciless scolding~

The expected stop did not appear, and after spending the night in Chang'an, the mighty Han army continued to advance, turning north.

This can confuse Han Xing, it stands to reason that the capital of the Han Dynasty is not Chang'an City? Besides, he had just vaguely seen the pavilions and cloisters in the inner city. Could it be that the emperor Lao'er actually doesn't live here?

So, he whispered to the two soldiers next to the car: "Two brothers, where are we going?" Isn't this Chang'an City the capital of the Han Dynasty? ”

The young soldier didn't mince words at Han Xing, and said sarcastically: "Who is your brother!" Oops~ I didn't expect that you, a beast who has forgotten the classics, can still talk to people~ Strange, strange! "It's boring for Han Xing.

On the contrary, it was the old veteran, who may have returned to the land of the Central Plains, and seemed to be in a good mood, along the way, he heard him humming some mountain songs, and he gave the answer to Han Xing's doubts:

"You don't know, sir, do you? Our Han Dynasty has a total of five capitals, namely Kaifeng in the east, Jinling in the south, Chang'an in the west, Tianjing in the north, and Luoyang in the middle! The veteran waved the five fingers of his right hand with some pride.

"We are now, we are in the territory of Yongzhou under the jurisdiction of Chang'an, and the next thing is to go to the northern capital Tianjing, which is also the current Beijing division of our Han Dynasty!"

Speaking of this, the veteran hammered his leg, revealing a bitter, but sweet smile and said: "After this trip, I can go back to my hometown in Henan, and my wife and children will be on the kang!" ”。

"Tianjin? When did Tianjin become the capital of the Celestial Empire? Han Xing subconsciously thought of the Tianjin municipality in reality.

But soon, the doubts in Han Xing's heart were quickly answered.
