Chapter 41 Heaven and earth turn, time is pressing
When I opened the tent door, I was greeted by the scorching heat outside.
As far as the eye could see, there were flames all over the mountains, like stars falling from the sky, falling on the peaks of mountains, flat ground, rivers and treetops.
The valley is like a marigold full of mercury, shining brightly, making people's eyes tingle, and they can't help but want to cry.
I don't know when, maybe a second before the peso opened the door of the tent, the torches that gathered from all sides finally closed in the middle of the valley, and in an instant the rushing flames rose into the sky, as if they were about to lick the dark dome of the sky.
There was a loud bang, perhaps a powder magazine somewhere had exploded, and even the mountains shook.
But the crowd in the valley became more and more excited, singing and dancing with torches.
The icy stream next to it reflected the firelight, like a flowing river of magma.
"Look, turtledove!" Peso stood on a cliff and pointed into the valley.
When he looked back, he saw that the turtledove had come behind him.
"We won!" The turtledove whispered.
"yes, we won!" Peso replied excitedly, and then raised his hands to his lips and shouted towards the valley: "We have won!"
"Victorious...... Profit...... Profit...... ......", the valley responded to his shout, and in a burst of singing and dancing and noisy BGM, the sound seemed to fall from the sky, reverberating back and forth between the mountains.
A few points of sparks in the valley drifted away with the wind, and they soared up to the turtledove.
When he stretched out his hand, he saw that the spark had sunk into his hand like a firefly, and when he looked closely, he didn't catch anything.
In Peso's eyes, the blazing flames reflected the figure of the turtledove, and his whole body seemed to glow like a fire.
The blue dome above the head is like the deep sea hanging upside down, if there is a torch in the world, the sky is grounded!
The turtledove shouted to the valley, "Indian!"
The valley rumbled: "Indian...... ...... Ann ......"
The turtledove stretched out his hand to hug the blazing stars in front of him, and finally he yelled at the sky, "Huya!"
And the valley replied with a rumbling voice, "Huja...... Huya...... Ya ......"
Just as the response was about to fade away, a chorus of shouts came from the valley.
"Huya!"
The sound shook the hearts and shook the heavens and the earth.
For a moment, even the turtledove felt that there seemed to be a whirlwind in the dark. My legs were a little weak, and I had to hold on to the peso to stand firmly.
It's been six years since I came here, and now it's a new world!
……
But he saw Fifteen Dollar staggering up from the bottom of the mountain with a group of people.
When they arrived more than ten meters away from the turtledove, they stopped again, lined up one by one, held their hands in front of their chests, and slowly walked in front of the turtledove step by step.
The faces were extremely serious, but the excited looks couldn't be concealed.
The turtledove only looked at them with a smile and a groan—
"Turtledove!" Fifteen's voice trembled slightly, "Turtledove!
」
The turtledove smiled and nodded gently at him—
"The new army of White Rock City, who has been in charge for three years, annihilated 1,500 American troops in the Lamar Valley today, and won a great victory!" Fifteen gritted his teeth and finished the last two words, but he couldn't hold it anymore, so he took a step forward and knelt down in front of the turtledove, crying: "Great victory! What a victory! Great victory, ......."
The people behind him couldn't hold it anymore, and they shouted, and they couldn't tell whether they were crying or laughing for a while.
The turtledove grabbed the fifteen-dollar hand, and his own hands were grabbed by more than a dozen hands, and finally dozens of people on the ridge hugged each other tightly, crying silently.
In this big battle, the turtledove has been watching on the ridge. When the war was anxious, he simply went into the tent, wanting to pass the time with other things.
It's just that where in the bottom of my heart will I be so calm as I am on my face?
No one knows the significance of this big win better than him...... This road to purgatory is coming to an end after all!
Fifteen dollars and the others may not be as far-reaching as him, but this tens of thousands of people up and down White Rock City, with all their might, can only win and not lose. As soldiers on the battlefield, how could these people not feel the awe-inspiring killing machine under the blazing fire?
Fortunately, it was finally won!
After this victory, the burden of Qianjun was halved.
After all, there are many ways to go, and the dark night can't compete with this starry sky......
The dawn of the Indians is finally coming!
……
The giant hard brought seven or eight cups, and a few bowls.
There was no wine in the tent, so they filled the brook beside them with water, and invited one another to drink.
The cold water of the stream still poured out the blazing fire in his heart, and finally he threw the bowl and cup into the sky, roaring and screaming.
At this time, meat and food were brought from the bottom of the mountain, but in the White Rock City in the rear, there were still people coming in an endless stream.
Looking south from the top of the mountain, I saw a series of torches wrapped around the mountain like a thin snake. Some of them carried it on their shoulders, some with sticks, and sent flour and bacon that they were reluctant to eat on weekdays, as if they didn't need money.
"The battle can be won, the soldiers are brave and the generals are well commanded, but there is the most important point," Turtledove said, pointing to the long fiery snake at the bottom of the mountain, "The support from everyone in White Rock City is indispensable!"
"Yes, turtledoves!" Fifteen dollars goes on to say, "They are not soldiers, but they are more heroic than soldiers. When the battle reached a stalemate in the middle of the battle, it was they who desperately climbed to the top of the hill and tore over a boulder from it, which rumbled down and smashed the American position!"
"Isn't it?" Another general said, "The U.S. military firepower was so fierce that we couldn't lift our heads in a frontal battle. But when the soldiers looked back, there were so many ordinary people behind them, and even their parents and wives might have arrived, where would they retreat, and they rushed up as soon as they threw their hats!"
"I've fought battles all my life, and I've won and lost, but I've never seen a battle like this like this, it's just magnificent, and it feels a bit groundbreaking!" Another said.
"If I, the Indians, could have such strength every time, what battle could not be won?" Another laughed and said, "Three years at most, and all the white people will be driven into the sea!"
"Hahaha!" Everyone laughed.
Three-year ...... Naturally, it is impossible to count.
But the confidence that this victory brought was unprecedented.
After a while, Ju Gang came up with a roasted sheep with the guards, and by the way brought a question:
"Turtledove, the big guys are asking, when will you go north? If it's too late, maybe the blood wolves have captured Fremont?"
