After resting for another three days in Yanyun Pass, early in the morning of the fourth day, Xiao Chen led the army out of the pass and officially set foot on the ground of Yanyun County.

The north of Yanyun Pass is a continuous deep forest, with undulating peaks and steep terrain, and only a narrow mountain road can barely allow cars and horses to pass.

Xiao Chen's nearly 10,000 horses and horses can only line up and march slowly along the mountain road, between the end and the end, the distance is as long as seven or eight miles, this kind of long snake-like marching form is actually very dangerous, once cut off by the enemy from the middle, then it is difficult to take care of the beginning and the tail.

However, Zhuge Xiaosheng had already reconnoitred in advance, although there were many fleeing civilians in the nearby mountains, including some suspicious characters, and even a small group of more than a dozen enemy troops, but there were no formed troops.

Presumably, the Xian people were not familiar with this place, and did not dare to send troops into the mountains easily.

Qin Gang and the others were so nervous that the rumors were loud, the grass and trees were all soldiers, and even the ordinary people who had finally fled here did not dare to contain and enter the customs, which was really too sad.

The army had only marched more than ten miles, and there was a report from the vanguard team that they had encountered a large group of refugees in front, kneeling on the ground and blocking the way, and they couldn't drive away, crying and shouting to see Lord Xiao.

The big guys all felt that Xiao Chen couldn't risk his life, but he was afraid that there would be some ambush, but Xiao Chen insisted on going, especially I don't believe that Xian Xiao people have such courage to dare to blatantly ambush the master!

This is clearly the people of Yanyun County looking for me to appeal, as the parent official of Yanyun County, don't I go over to talk like that?

The big guy didn't have anything to say, just told him to be careful.

When Xiao Chen arrived at the front, he saw that on both sides of the road, there were thousands of people in ragged clothes and thin muscles on both sides of the road, and there were thousands of people with yellow faces.

Hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and approached.

"You were sent by Lord Xiao?" When a man about thirty years old saw Xiao Chen coming, he was about to kneel.

Xiao Chen grabbed him and said in a deep voice, "This big brother, I am Xiao Chen." ”

"Huh? You are Lord Xiao who descended from Wenqu Xing? "The man looked incredulous, can't he? Why are you so young?

"Hehe, big brother, I'm just an ordinary person, what kind of Wenqu Xing, you all fled from Yanyun County?" Xiao Chen spoke softly, without any arrogance at all.

"But you are looking forward to it, Lord Xiao! We've been waiting for you here for a long time, and if you don't come again, we'll all have no way to live! The man knelt down for him with a puff and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Lord Xiao, help!" As soon as the man knelt down, thousands of people behind him also knelt down, and the cry shook the sky for a while, and the wails were all over the field!

Xiao Chen never thought that the people of Yanyun County also knew his name, and they were still waiting for him here, looking forward to him, and suddenly felt a big mountain pressed on his shoulders?

The heart said that the big guy also thinks too highly of me Xiao Chen, but don't you know that I am also here to survive in death?

"Folks, get up quickly, I'll send someone to send you into the customs now......" Xiao Chen would never watch these ordinary people freeze and starve to death in this deep mountain and old forest.

Although Qin Gang did not allow the people of Yanyun County to enter the customs, if he sent someone to send it, Qin Gang would presumably give himself this face.

Of course, he would also tell Qin Gang to take some necessary measures, try not to let them stay in the city, and directly send some soldiers to send them to various towns in the south in batches, and then verify their identities, register them, and properly settle them, so that there will be no problems.

But to Xiao Chen's surprise, these Yanyun people were unwilling to enter the customs!

"Lord Xiao, let's ask you a word on behalf of the big guy, are we the subjects of the Great Zhou?" The man's face turned red with excitement, and his voice was like a roar.

"Of course it is, do you need to say that?" Xiao Chen didn't know why the man asked that.

"Since we are the subjects of the Great Zhou, why doesn't the Great Zhou want us! The big guy desperately escaped from under the iron hooves of the Xian people, trekking hundreds of miles, not to mention how much suffering he suffered, how many people died along the way...... But the big man of Yanyun Pass didn't allow the big guy to enter the customs, and said that we were the spies of the Xian people! The man said with tears in his eyes.

"It's not that General Qin is ruthless, it's just that the situation forces ......" Xiao Chen also defended Qin Gang twice.

"We ordinary people don't understand these truths, we only know that since we are the subjects of the Great Zhou, the soldiers of the Great Zhou should protect us, the Xian Xiao cavalry swept through Yanyun County, so that our people were ruined and displaced, but we didn't see a single soldier of the Great Zhou to protect us! It's just that we are allowed to be wantonly slaughtered by others. ”

"When the Emperor of the Han Dynasty sat in the country, no one dared to bully us, when those Ross devils attacked, our Li Chang and Li Hou immediately led the army to drive them all away, why is it that the dynasty is changing now, is it not as good as the generation?"

"Emperor Da Zhou doesn't want us, then we won't go back, and if we go back, we will be a host, so it's better to follow Lord Xiao and you go to work with Xian Xiao to take back our own land and property!"

"I know that Lord Xiao is a hero, if you are not a hero, you don't dare to come! But we also heard that the emperor sent you to die, just because your credit is too great, and it shook the Lord! I see Lord Xiao, don't go back this time, after defeating the Xian people, you will be the prince of our Yanyun County! ”

Therefore, the eyes of ordinary people are bright, don't think that they don't understand anything, in fact, they understand everything in their hearts......

"Oh, don't talk nonsense, this big brother is a sin of killing his head!" Xiao Chen had three black lines on his forehead, he didn't expect this man to be really bold, he really dared to poke words.

But the words are not rough, but they are quite in line with my mind.

Therefore, although it was a tone of reproach, he did not get angry, nor did he give orders to take people.

"Hehe, Lord Xiao, we all crawled out of the pile of dead people, half of our lives are already gone, we will freeze to death and starve to death if we speak, what are we afraid of killing? The ancients had clouds, and the people were not afraid of death, so why should they be afraid of death? "Unexpectedly, this rough-looking man is still a man who has read books.

"Don't dislike us for being cumbersome, you see, these are all young people, nothing else, they have a lot of strength, and they have the courage to kill! Why? Because those old, weak, sick and disabled people can't run, even on the way out, they are starving, sick and exhausted, these are our relatives...... We hate it! ”

The man's eyes were red, and what was flowing was no longer tears, but blood!

Xiao Chen looked around, and sure enough, most of the thousands of people were young adults in their twenties and thirties, and there were some girls among them, but there was not a single old man or child......

This is probably one of the reasons why Qin Gang didn't dare to let them enter the customs.

It also made Xiao Chen a little embarrassed.

Because he couldn't be sure if these people were spies sent by the Xian people?
