Far away on the border of Yanzhou, Liangguo, several beautifully decorated carriages slowly entered the customs.

The largest pass on the border of Yanzhou is Juyong Pass, the location is dangerous, it is in the middle, refuses to defend, and the two countries of Jin are outside, not only in the military use is very important, but also the pass that has always been passed through for trade or envoys.

Juyong Pass was built in the early days of the capture of Yanzhou in this dynasty, spent countless manpower and material resources, the whole pass does not rely on the topography, but directly fills the soil to build a city, directly rises on the vast grassland of Yanzhou, stretches for several miles, is very majestic, has also become one of the Xiongguan sung by countless literati and ink writers in the past hundred years, once it has passed through the Juyong Pass, the road after that is a horse Pingchuan, a big road leads directly to Liangzhou, where the central capital of Liangguo is located, so the importance of Juyongguan can be called the gateway of Liangguo in the northeast direction.

Yanzhou is different from the neighboring Youzhou, the entire huge Yanzhou is a vast grassland, which is easy to attack and difficult to defend, and once Yanzhou is lost, it is followed by the unlucky Liangzhou where the capital is located, so Yanzhou is not allowed to lose, which is why Yanzhou has continuous passes and Youzhou does not have the reason.

Similarly, the positions of several generals in Yanzhou have not been hereditary by the Xu family like Youzhou, and they are all sent by the royal family to serve as henchmen or control and monitor in the name of supervision.

Juyongguan is divided into three layers, the size of the ordinary small city, and the soldiers stationed in it are the most elite blood soldiers in Yanzhou, all of whom are well-trained fierce generals, which shows the importance of the imperial court.

The carriage that entered the customs was quietly entered under the supervision of the soldiers of the city tower, and the conspicuous bauhinia logo on the carriage was the emblem of the royal family of the Jin Kingdom.

Although the soldiers guarding the pass could not recognize where this badge came from, just looking at the flashy decoration on the carriage, they also knew that it should come from a prominent family, and the envoys had already handed over the greetings in advance, and the carriage had just entered the urn city, and immediately a middle-aged man wearing blood-red hideous armor walked down from the city tower with the heavy sword at his waist.

"Master Jun. ”

The groom who was driving the carriage hurriedly dismounted, took out the paper from his bosom, bent down and respectfully handed it over.

The Lixue Army is one of the nine armies of the Liang Kingdom, the most ferocious, the most prominent in battle, and the true tiger and wolf division with the highest death rate, especially for them of the Jin Dynasty, it is even more of a change of color, although this general knows that he is not the supreme commander of this place by looking at the armor, but at least he is also the general stationed in this urn city, so he naturally does not dare to slack off, and his attitude is extremely respectful.

This middle-aged man is indeed not the real guard of this place, the one who guards the Yongguan is the number one of the top generals in the blood army, where can he compare, but he was sent out to 'greet' this group of Jin people, he was born with a heroic beard, rough appearance, tiger back and bear waist, people are daunted, seeing the other party respectfully hand over the customs clearance papers, hehe smiled, and directly slapped the other party's hand to fly away.

"Lao Tzu is illiterate!"

"You!"

The attendants of the Jin Kingdom, who had just stepped down from the carriage, saw this scene, their faces were full of anger, and they pulled out their swords and wanted to do it, who could stand such a naked insult, not to mention that they were carrying a heavy responsibility on this trip, and they were promised by the court of Liangguo, but they were very formal envoys, what is the difference between the other party's behavior and hitting them in the face of the Jin Kingdom, you must know that the soldier can be killed, not humiliated, this is the truth, the husband is angry, and the blood is splashed in five steps!

He can die, but the face of the Jin Kingdom cannot be lost!

"Huh?"

The soldiers who were guarding with guns on all sides saw that the other party suddenly drew their swords, and hurriedly stepped forward with their spears, and surrounded them one by one, and the coachman next to them was so frightened that they almost knelt down.

As soon as he came, the bearded man who took the initiative to stir up trouble was about to make a big fuss as soon as he saw that the matter was about to make a big fuss, but instead of stopping, he sneered: "What, do you want to do it? Isn't it stable for a long time, you little cubs of the Jin Kingdom have forgotten the power of my Liang Kingdom?"

The founding of the Liang State Yin Shi is only a place of three states, all rely on the fierce expansion of Emperor Taizu, step by step, it is said that this Yanzhou, is born from the Wei, Jin and Jin cut out a territory, if it is not at the time of the alternation of rights, and because of the annual war caused by the emptiness of the country needs to recuperate, the current Wei, Jin and Jin countries are only afraid that they have long ceased to exist, the Jin State of the year had three continents, but now there are only two states left to survive, which can be seen, no wonder this guard can be so arrogant, who can afford to see the defeated generals in the army？

Being deliberately insulted like this, the attendant of the Jin Kingdom couldn't hold back any longer, shouted angrily, drew his sword and cut it out.

"Look for death!"

This person is also a master of the Jin Kingdom, with superb martial arts and great strength, where can ordinary soldiers stop him, and the two of them were slashed out by his sword at the moment, and when they saw that things were about to get out of control, a reprimand suddenly came from the carriage to stop the farce.

"Don't be rude. ”

The attendant known as Zhu Zhu suddenly stopped, but he refused to put away his sword, and turned back with some hatred: "My lord, do you just let them bully us and others?"

The old but neutral voice in the car sounded again, but there was already a trace of anger at this moment: "Why, you don't even listen to me?"

The Jin State guard Yu Zhu's body froze, and he could only silently tuck the sword back into the scabbard at his waist, and waited beside the carriage with his head down.

The bearded guard smiled, and without looking too deep, waved his hand to make the other soldiers put away their weapons, and waited with the two wounded soldiers on the side.

He just wanted to give these little cubs of the Jin Kingdom a little bit of power, after all, the other party was a legitimate envoy, he couldn't do too much, thought about it, and asked.

"On the carriage, but the envoys of the Jin Kingdom?"

Before the words fell, the heavy curtain of the carriage with exquisite patterns was gently opened by a pair of hands full of wrinkled skin and age spots, and the guard next to him was startled and hurried to help.

I saw an old man wearing the official uniform of the Jin Kingdom, opened the curtain of the car, and walked slowly down from the car, the old man was over the age of old, but his body was still tough, he gently pushed away the hand of the guard next to him, and stood on the land of Yanzhou, tied with a high crown, full of silver hair, still in good spirits.

Shake your sleeves, bow your hand, and bow deeply.

"Old man Shangguan Qian, I've seen the general!"

The bearded man who was full of disdain just now was suddenly startled, because of the great name of Shangguan Qian, when the Jin and Liang countries were at war, this was the envoy who mediated in the middle, relying on a three-inch tongue, it can be regarded as indirectly prompting the Liang State to withdraw from the army, preserving the remaining land of the Jin State, not to mention, but also from the hands of the tiger and wolf division of the Liang State to deduct a part of it back, since then it has become famous, was given the surname Shangguan, and then did not take credit for himself, but lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, abdicated to make way for Xian, it is said that he often lamented that he had not sought more benefits for the Jin State and blamed himself, such a scribe style, famous throughout the south。

Such a character, even if he is from Liangguo, he does not dare to slack off, and when he changes his arrogant style just now, he said politely.

"I didn't expect that it was you who personally went on to envoy this time, and the farce just now made Mr. laugh. ”

The old man held his left hand behind him, clenched his fist tightly, touched his beard with his right hand, looked at the south, his eyes surged with a strong sense of family and country, and his voice was low, with a melancholy that could not be dissolved.

"Yes, after 50 years, I can't imagine that I can set foot on my homeland again, it's really 。。。。。。 ”

The old man thought about it, and all his sorrows and words turned into a long sigh, which drifted away with the wind.

"Alas。。。。。。 ”

The old man was originally from Yanzhou, Jin State.

"Hey, hey. The bearded man could only laugh helplessly twice, not knowing how to pick it up.

Silently feeling the breath of the mountains and rivers of his homeland, Shangguan Qian finally retracted his gaze, lowered his body and picked up the dirty document from the ground on the side, and asked calmly, "Do you want to see it again?"

This sentence made the bearded man even more embarrassed, confessed, and then waved his hand directly, asking the soldiers in the distance to open the gate of the urn city and let them go.

"Since you are personally on the mission, naturally there is nothing to check, I am a small border general, and I don't have that qualification, you can go, and the next few checkpoints can be passed directly, out of the customs, there is a team of people outside who will escort you all the way to ensure your safety, which is also the meaning of the top." ”

After all, it is a person from another country, and you can't run around when you come to Liangguo, you have to rely on a special person to escort you all the way, and you will continue to hand over and replace people at the post houses along the way until you arrive in the capital.

When Shangguan Qian heard this, he bowed deeply again.

"So, thank you, General. ”

The guard on the side, Yu Zhu, glared at the bearded man, snorted coldly, carefully helped Shangguan Qian back to the carriage, and then pushed away the coachman who was originally frightened, and ran to the front to do the driving business, with a proud look on his face, drove the carriage towards the city gate.

Seeing that the three carriages were gradually moving away, a veteran of the Bloody Army was escorted away with more than ten horsemen, and the bearded man snorted disdainfully in the direction of the carriage's departure.

"Phew, what's the magic? The general of the defeated army dares to speak bravely?"

Although he greatly respected Shangguan Qian, a national soldier who fought for the sake of the country, and even risked his life, he looked down on the attendant with a proud look on his face.

After all, Yanzhou is adjacent to the two countries, and the border line is much shorter than that of Youzhou, and there are more people, and the defense is naturally more stringent, and there is no horse bandit or anything to make trouble, and it is naturally safer, coupled with the prestige that the Yanzhou border army has accumulated over the years, there is no one who is not long-sighted, and dares to provoke the convoy under the banner of the bloody army.

The group went all the way to the capital of Liangguo smoothly, but they didn't want to come to the door to greet only the Shaoqing of Daliang Honglu Temple, and even Dahonglu did not come, such a low-standard reception, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is humiliating.

The old man stood at the gate of the city, turned around and looked out into the north, his face was ancient and waveless, and the light flashed in his eyes.

This trip is not destined to be easier than it was 50 years ago.
