Chapter 266: Arrival (Fifth Shift)

At this time, it was not the time to rest, most of the people who were still alive were injured, and the doctors brought by Yue Kepeng hurriedly treated the injured, and the few people who were less injured also hurriedly helped.

At this time, there were corpses all over the ground, including Turkic horse thieves, Han Chao'an's men, and Yue Kepeng's men.

In this battle, Yue Kepeng's men sacrificed sixty-eight people, while Han Chao'an's men lost forty-five people, compared to the number of Turkic horse thieves killed, but I don't know how much.

After tidying up a little, everyone found a place to camp, and then cremated the bodies of their own people and brought the ashes back for burial.

In the evening, piles of bonfires are lit on the field, but they are not as lively as the previous days.

Although they had expected that the trip would not be too smooth, and they were even ready to die, when the friends who had been with each other day and night died in front of their eyes, no one could ignore that feeling, and an atmosphere of sorrow engulfed the entire camp, and no one could be happy.

Yue Kepeng pulled up a smile and said: "Lin Zhenren, if it weren't for you today, I'm afraid we would all be killed, Yue Kepeng thanks Zhenren for his great kindness." ”

Lin Chen sighed: "I'm just doing my part, alas, it's just that I didn't expect these Turkic horse thieves to attack separately, otherwise there wouldn't be so many brothers killed." ”

Yue Kepeng smiled bitterly: "It's no wonder that Lin Zhenren is in this matter, the horse thief is huge, we have already thought of such an ending, and even if it weren't for the real person here, we wouldn't have survived at all." ”

Lin Chen sighed lightly, and the face of Fu Junyan, who was beside him, was a little pale. Asked softly, "Miss Fu." Are you okay? ”

Fu Junchang was also injured. There was still a bandage around his arm, but it was only a minor injury, and it was not a major injury.

Fu Junyan shook her head and said in a low voice: "I'm fine, I just think of so many people dying today, and I feel a little uncomfortable."

It is said that although Fu Junyan is Fu Cailin's high apprentice, she has always been cultivating by Fu Cailin's side. Although she has also killed people, this is the first time she has encountered this kind of scene, and the most important thing is that she is only a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, and she naturally will not feel good in her heart.

Yue Kepeng said: "Miss Fu, no matter who encounters this kind of scene, it is not comfortable, you might as well drink wine to suppress the shock." ”

As he spoke, Yue Kepeng handed a wine bag full of wine to Fu Junchang, but the wine bag was still full, and obviously no one had drunk it. Yue Kepeng will not hand the wine bag that someone has drunk to Fu Junchang, so Fu Junchang will not accept it.

Looking at the wine bag handed by Yue Kepeng. Fu Junyan hesitated for a moment, then reached out to take it.

Opening the wine bag, Fu Junyan poured it hard. Lin Chen was about to speak, but it was too late.

"Ahem."

Because she drank too quickly, Fu Junchang was suddenly choked.

No one present laughed at Fu Junyan's embarrassment, Lin Chen smiled: "Drink slowly, this is not water."

Fu Junyan nodded, took two more sips, and slowly calmed down.

Fu Junyan handed the wine bag to Lin Chen beside him, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Lin Chen laughed, stretched out his hand to take it, and drank bitterly.

Lin Chen's laughter seemed to be contagious, because the silent atmosphere brought about by the battle just now suddenly disappeared with a smile, and the scene became lively.

Lin Chen was defeated and injured in a battle with Bi Xuan, and then single-handedly defeated the enemy and killed countless Turkic horse thieves, and these two things quickly spread in the grassland.

Although Lin Chen was famous in the Central Plains before, it was much weaker when it came here, and some people didn't even think that Lin Chen was very powerful, because some rumors were too outrageous.

But after these two major events spread, all the grassland people were shocked, who is Bi Xuan, Bi Xuan can be said to be the god in the hearts of the grassland people, his reputation in the grassland is far better than Ning Daoqi in the Central Plains, Lin Chen can be inseparable from Bi Xuan, after the first battle, it can be said that Lin Chen now has a prestige no less than Bi Xuan.

I was both shocked and frightened in my heart, this was what the grassland people thought of Lin Chen now, anyway, no one in the grassland people dared to come to Lin Chen's trouble now.

You must know that the siege cannot kill Lin Chen, and the Turkic horse thieves have already explained it with their own failures.

Lin Chen and his party arrived at Longquan smoothly all the way, and no one dared to stop their journey.

Longquan Shangjing is the largest city in the northeast of the prairie, south of Jingpo Lake City, surrounded by Changbai Mountain, one side of the water, built on an open alluvial plain, the land is fertile, with agriculture as the main animal husbandry as the subordinate, the rice produced is famous in the prairie, and is regarded as the best in the rice.

Another characteristic is that the city is full of hot spring water, so it is full of stone canals, the water is clear, no matter washing and irrigating the water, it is warm and pleasant, full of interest.

Longquan is only a quarter of the size of Chang'an, and it is also divided into three outer cities, inner cities and palace cities, ten gates are opened on all sides, three are in the north and south, two are in the east and west, and the central street divides the city into two halves, of course, it is also called Suzaku Street, which leads directly to the south gate of the inner and outer cities.

In addition, there are still four main streets criss-crossed, with other secondary roads, like Chang'an, the houses in the city are divided into large and small squares.

The inner city is located in the middle of the north, surrounded by the Jiuli Palace City, and the east of the heavy city is where the forbidden garden is located, with ponds, small bridges, rockeries, and the scenery of the pavilion is extremely beautiful.

Although the city defense of Longquan City is far from the city defense of Chang'an, it is also as high as five zhang, built of basalt, very strong, and has been strong to defend with the magnificent arrow tower to deal with the enemies of various ethnic groups dominated by cavalry.

There are five halls and pavilions in the palace city, and the main palace is also called Taiji, and there are verandahs between the halls to communicate, and they face the worship of the purple pavilion to govern the place.

There is a stone lighthouse outside the south gate, which is built with 12 sections of carved basalt, which is simple and heavy.

Every night, someone lights the torch at the top of the tower, and the glory becomes the symbol and symbol of Longquan.

The civilians of Longquan City are similar to Chang'an in terms of clothing, customs, writing, culture, and systems, and they are suspected to be returning to Chang'an in the middle of the earth.

Lin Chen and others walked on the road for a total of six days, and after nine days it was the time to hold the founding ceremony, and the envoys from all parties came to congratulate, and the Han Scorpion clan supported the worship of the Purple Pavilion, and it was even more crowded on the way, so the Vermilion Bird Street with unprecedented pomp was more lively than that of Chang'an.

The city's defenses were greatly strengthened, and groups of Bohai navy in armor and helmets patrolled everywhere to prevent anyone from disturbing the peace.

As soon as Lin Chen and the others arrived in Longquan, they were greeted by Bai Ziting's subordinates, and they were respectfully taken to the hotel.

Lin Chen, who had been to Chang'an in Longquan, couldn't help but sigh, "Longquan is so prosperous, and the facilities in it make people almost suspect that they are in Chang'an, which is worthy of the name of Little Chang'an."

Han Chaoan said with a smile on the side: "It is said that Bai Ziting stayed in Chang'an for a long time a few years before Yang Jian's death, when he was still young, so he was deeply affected by the meteorology of the heyday of the Great Sui." (To be continued.) )
