Chapter 059: [The Great War is Imminent] (Part I)

It was dark at night, and we traveled more than 20 miles in the darkness of night to the vicinity of the boundary bridge. Looking at the boundary bridge across the White River not far away, it is like a domineering tiger flying on the river, and the momentum is particularly majestic.

The flow of the White River here is relatively slow, but the river surface is wide, more than four zhang. It was not easy for ancient craftsmen to erect a large wooden bridge over such a width.

I beckoned and motioned for the tiger and monkey to come and investigate. The two of them walked slowly after the order, and slowly touched forward. In an instant, it melted into the darkness.

"Captain, let's take advantage of this time to wrap the horse's hooves and plug the horse's mouth, so as not to make a noise, alarm the surrounding people, and expose their whereabouts." Meng Shouli said.

"If you don't say I'm ignoring, give the order."

"Yes!"

Meng Shouli retreated to the back to give the order. I waited for a while, and the tiger and monkey ran back.

"There aren't half rebels or outposts around." Huzi grinned.

"Do you remember how the road went?" I asked.

"I remembered it three days ago. After crossing the boundary bridge and going west, about four miles away, there is a series of small hills, and the hills are full of small trees, just enough to hide horses. "The monkey preemptively leads.

"Okay, you stay here. Huzi went to give the order and prepared to cross the bridge. ”

When Huzi saw that I ordered the monkey to stay, not him, he happily went down to give the order. I'm afraid that if I take a slow step, I'll let him change like a monkey.

"Why let the little one stay? The little one remembers the road. The monkey said hurriedly, with a thousand unwilling expressions on his face. I know, it's his excuse. He remembered the road, and it was impossible for Huzi not to remember. It's just that the monkey is only eighteen this year, but the tiger is already twenty-three. Maybe it was because of the small reason that I decided to let him stay.

"When I came out of Zhuocheng, there were 3,000 horsemen in Shangtun. When the city falls, I will take a thousand of you to fight in the rear of the rebels. Now, if you go to Guangzong, you can say that you are dead and alive, and you can't let the Shangtun army be wiped out, right? You stay here with four scouts. If you don't see us back after seven days, you can try to get back to Jixian. Report the situation here to Guan Yu to know. I said sentimentally.

"Captain, don't leave the small ones, don't leave the small ones!" The monkey cried.

"What's going on?" Meng Lishou was attracted by the cry of the monkey. "Man, what are you crying about? If you are afraid of death, stay! It seems that Meng Lishou misunderstood, thinking that the monkey was afraid that he would cross the bridge and not return, and he was afraid of death before crying.

"I asked him to stay behind and leave some roots for the Shangtun Department. He said he wouldn't do anything, and he started crying. ”

"This ...... Stay, stay. What are you crying about? Meng Shouli patted him on the shoulder embarrassedly. Captain, you're ready to cross the bridge. ”

"Good. Bridge! After I finished talking to Meng Shouli, he twisted and smiled at the monkey: "Within ten days, Lao Tzu will definitely come back." At that time, if Lao Tzu can't find you, he will be dealt with by military law. ”

After saying that, I led the war horse and walked towards the boundary bridge. My heart is full of reluctance. After more than a month of getting along, our friendship has already been deep. But in order to keep him alive, no matter how reluctant he is, he has to do it.

The moment I stepped on the boundary bridge with my left foot, it felt like I was stepping on the Nai River Bridge. Whether this goes or not, there is only one dead word. Listening to the sound of the river murmuring under the bridge, my heart was calm. When I first crossed over, I still wanted to be the king, the hegemon, and then the emperor, to destroy Xianbei, and to destroy the ancestors of small Japan. In the end, he wanted to help Emperor Han Ling calm the world, and even risked his life. It's really ridiculous.

Take a deep breath and stride onto the bridge, full of pride and ambition.

The bridge was safely crossed, and sure enough, there were no ambushes. So nearly 1,000 riders led the way by the tiger and got into the rolling hills four miles away.

This group of hills is not big or small. In short, we have fallen into the sea, and no one can even hope to find it. Huzi said that this place is only ten miles away from the home battle of Guangzong in the west, but he has to go out of the hills first and bypass the hills to the east to get there. For on the west side of the hill is a cliff that cannot be climbed.

As we dismounted, we found a flock of night birds startled in the eastern woods. Meng Shouli exclaimed with his war-hardened instincts: "There's a crowd over there!" ”

So a few of us walked over it. I squatted down behind a small tree on the top of a hill, and found a wide band of fish-belly white bent out of the hill a mile to the east, reaching in the direction of the boundary bridge to the south.

"Official! That's the official way! How can there be an official road here? Meng Shouli exclaimed. Zhang He hurriedly covered his mouth and said in a low voice: "Don't get excited. ”

There was a sound of hurried footsteps ahead, and after a while, countless black shadows appeared on the official road, and the ground trembled with neat steps.

"It must be the rebels stationed at the Boundary Bridge." Huzi roared.

Meng Shouli couldn't help but sigh in a low voice: "It's so dangerous, it's really fucking dangerous!" ”

"These bitches really went to the boundary bridge to ambush them." Huzi also scolded. I can hear from the tone that there is a kind of sigh of aftermath of the catastrophe. If we come back in three days, as we planned, we will be in a trap.

I touched my cold forehead and said, "If it weren't for Brother Zhang, we would really have no place to die, and we wouldn't even know how to lose." ”

"Now the rebels have gone to the boundary bridge to ambush. There is no way out for them. Leaving him dead and lifeless, I have never seen such a war. Zhang He's Hebei dialect sounded from behind again.

"If you're so afraid of death, don't come." Huzi said unhappily.

"If I had been afraid of death, I would have come with me." Apparently Zhang He was angry. He said very reasonably, there is no such way of fighting in the war: it is still unknown whether he can destroy the enemy, so he will put himself to death first.

"Shut up, Huzi!" I said angrily. Huzi flashed aside angrily.

"Let's go!" I whispered back.

Back at the camp, the brothers gathered around and talked and laughed in low voices. In the dark night, there was laughter from time to time. When I got closer, I realized that it was Huzi who was playing treasure, which amused everyone.

I really didn't expect that all the knights would be able to face this moment when their lives were about to be killed, not afraid of life and death, and I couldn't help but be greatly moved.

Lying alone on the weeds, looking at the moon, reminded me of her. I'm dying, just think about it.

"Captain, are you thinking about women?" Huzi didn't know what to do, and when he left them, he came to me and asked. "You don't speak, the little ones know. Zhang Sima told us about it. ”

Zhang Fei, who didn't stop him, said everything to the outside.

I got up and pretended not to know and asked, "What did the third brother say?" ”

"Don't pretend. Although you are our commander, in the face of love, everyone is equal. Huzi said with a smile.

"Tomorrow is ...... Yes. Go ahead. Say as much as you like! "The thought that he was going to die tomorrow was up to him. I lay down again and looked at the night sky.

When Huzi heard me say this, he fell silent. After a long time, a phrase came out: "I can see her tomorrow." With that, he returned to the crowd. His giggle could be heard in the distance. I guessed in my heart that the girl he liked must have died.

A moonlit night without stars is beautiful. I have never felt that the night is so beautiful, and even the chirping of summer insects is very pleasant. The night was spent in such a feeling that everything is beautiful.

The night in the east faded away, and was finally replaced by the white of the fish's belly. I stood up, and the cool breeze that is characteristic of summer hit my face, and I felt a burst of passion.

Turning to look to the west, his view was blocked by the small hill in front of him. According to Huzi, behind the hills, there is a vast and boundless plain. If the prediction is correct, the decisive battle of the Han bandits, with a total force of nearly 2 million, will open an astonishing prelude that will affect the course of history.
