Chapter 21: Meeting in the Camp
Being able to see old friends and old acquaintances in the past when he just arrived in Luoyang, especially the brothers and sisters who fought side by side against the enemy's life and death and empathy, this still made Chi Tang quite happy, but the joy of this reunion was only fleeting, Lu Yang's expression was very heavy, which made Chi Tang have a bad premonition.
"Brother Lu saw that I was in the same door, why did you say that most of your lives were sacrificed?"
"When I came into the camp, I couldn't say anything. Lu Yang's eyes turned to Han Li, "The Great Sima Mansion controls the Thunder Falcon, and the Xiping controls the Thunder Falcon?"
Han Li nodded, and Chi Tang added: "Brother Han is also a demon subduer, just like me, I am a fire crow, and he is a thunder eagle. ”
Lu Yang was greatly surprised, and hugged his fist at Han Li: "Long admiration." ”
"These people are also people all the way, although they are the ...... of ghosts and spirits" Chi Tang said halfway through, only to find that Murong Yan, Zhang Yan and Na Lingfeng had all hidden their figures, in the human world, they still seemed too abrupt after all, since the misunderstanding had been cleared, there was no need for them to always use their visible appearance to stimulate the sensitivity of the human sergeant.
I heard that it was all the way with Chi Tang, Lu Yang was a little surprised and skipped not to ask, the soldiers of the ghost royal camp had not seen anything strange, and it was not surprising that there were a few ghosts and goblins who accompanied the demons.
At that moment, Lu Yang waved to the outside of the village: "Collect the troops, your own family!"
It wasn't until Chi Tang and Lu Yang stepped out of the village that they saw more than 100 rhino warriors standing together, Chi Tang couldn't help but sigh, these warriors seemed to have a broken body and maintained the strict order of the military soldiers' orders, which was indeed extraordinary, and the strange way could compete with demons.
"The Great Qin Ghost Imperial Camp was created after Chi Daxia left Chang'an, and at that time, he saw the demons in the first battle of the palace, but he couldn't be unprepared, and now there are more than 3,000 people, well, Wei Daxia, Seventh Brother They are all in the camp and are generals. ”
Thinking back to when he left Chang'an, this demon army was still only on the intention, this was only less than a year, but it was already quite large-scale, Chi Tang was relieved, after all, human beings are not completely powerless in the face of demons, and the rumors that the Dragon and Tiger Mountain Alliance will hear are true.
Han Li thought of the Tomb Captain in the South, and the original intention of founding the Tomb Commander was also to resist demons, and later heard that it was his friend Teng Xiang who became the Commander of the Tomb under the recommendation of Gan Fei, and now that he has been separated for many years, he doesn't know how the Tomb Captain has progressed.
"Chi Daxia, don't look at this lifeless outside Luoyang City, in fact, the ghost palace camp has long been full of dark sentinels, day and night, send people to monitor in turn, beware of demons coming back, this is not to notice that Chi Daxia's breath is different just now, so I brought people to surround it, fortunately, it was just a misunderstanding. ”
"What is the battle in Luoyang?" Chi Tang thought for a while, since Lu Yang avoided talking about the news of the same door, then ask about the battle situation.
Lu Yang led the way, and his face was a little unnatural: "We are still late, and when we first arrived, the demons here somehow retreated." Now Luoyang City is taken over by the Great Qin army, and after picking up the city for a whole day, I heard that at least the remains of thousands of demons have been gathered, as well as countless mortal corpses and stumps, some Hu people, some Jin people, alas, it is conceivable that this battle was fought badly. ”
Speaking of the tragedy of the battle, the atmosphere seemed dull, Chi Tang's heart was weak for a while, he was worried about which of his fellow disciples sacrificed their lives, and Han Li deduced that it was the last of the Qin State to send troops, and it happened to occupy Luoyang City, which was a few percent of the Blood Sea Hell.
Entering Luoyang City, Chi Tang and Han Li knew how big the battle of the soldiers and horses of the Qin State was, and as far as they could see, they were all soldiers in armor patrolling back and forth, and the city was brightly lit, and they were full of fully armed and tense soldiers.
The fine cold rain hit the soldiers, and most of them made a muffled sound of fluttering, which showed that the armor they wore was mostly leather, and there was no crisp sound of raindrops falling on gold and iron.
The ghost royal camp soldiers seemed to have a high status in the Qin army, and ordinary soldiers saluted respectfully when they saw them, and they also saved the formalities of checking, while those ghost royal camp soldiers were very arrogant and took it for granted.
The light of the lights also illuminated the city of Luoyang, Chi Tang noticed that the ground footprints were mixed, muddy, the snow outside the city was more than a foot thick and no longer seen, and the ruins and broken walls were countless, a bleak and sad scene, you can imagine what kind of war has been experienced here these days.
The camp of the ghost royal camp is stationed outside the granary near the south of the city, covering a wide area, and the lights here are not as bright as outside, but faint and cold with white light, reflecting the flickering brightness of the cowhide tent, which adds a bit of gloom in the middle of the night.
"Take a break, drink some hot soup to warm up, and go to the east of the city at dawn to change shifts. Lu Yang instructed the more than 100 rhino warriors who followed behind, and then led Chitang Han Li to the depths of the camp: "Come with me, the big tent is here." ”
I don't know how long I walked, Lu Yang stopped in front of an inconspicuous cowhide tent, faintly shining through the gap in the hanging tent, Lu Yang signaled to Chitang Han Li, raised his hand, and opened the tent.
Chi Tang's eyes suddenly lit up, and there was a warm breeze blowing on his face, and when he lowered his head and leaned in, he saw several people looking up at each other next to the sand table written in the center of the military tent.
Chi Tang recognized Wei Feng, a red-robed rhinoceros with a burly face, at first glance, and Wei Feng stared at him for a moment, his eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, but he immediately showed joy: "Brother Chi, why are you?"
Chi Tang smiled and clenched his fists: "Brother Wei, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Wei Feng didn't care about Chi Tang's fist, but strode over and gave Chi Tang a warm hug, before he could speak, he saw Han Li behind Chi Tang, and couldn't help but be stunned, although he didn't know Han Li, but he was very popular, and his unique skills were also known at a glance.
"Brother Han, this is the Fufeng hero I once talked about, the Fierce Halberd Wei Feng Wei Hero, the Tiger Flame Halberd is unparalleled in the world, and the Dragon Teng Palm is the best in the world. Chi Tang pointed at Han Li to Wei Feng again, "Brother Wei, this is Xiping Yuleishi, the chief swordsman of the Great Sima Mansion, and Han Li Han's great swordsman." ”
"Xiping Pilot?" Wei Feng's eyes showed a look of surprise, and he hurriedly saluted Han Li, "I have been famous for a long time, and I can see it today, and I am very relieved." ”
Han Li nodded to Wei Feng: "I'm fortunate to have met Wei Daxia." "He is not as enthusiastic as Wei Feng's appearance, first, because of his temperament, and secondly, he is still a swordsman of the Jin Dynasty's Great Sima Mansion after all, and he is considered to be working for Huan Da Sima, but Wei Feng sees the situation as the commander of the Qin State, although the two countries have not fought at present, but there are also a lot of discords, sooner or later it will be a sword and soldiers, he can't appear to be too enthusiastic with the enemy generals.
Just when the two sides met, Chi Tang heard a light sound from the side, followed the sound, and saw that it was a short-haired strong man with a straight nose and a square mouth, thick eyebrows and broad eyes, but he was not wearing the rhino armor military uniform of the Qin State, and at first glance it was still a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen this person for a while.
Wei Feng didn't care about Han Li's slightly cold politeness, even if he became a general, he was still the cool temperament of the heroes on the rivers and lakes in the past, and laughed: "Okay, although it is not allowed to drink alcohol in the camp, today the five soldiers have gathered three of them, and when it is a celebration, it will be an exception." Brother Lu, you go and call a few old brothers in Chang'an City to come, the old people will meet again, have a drink, and tell them, don't get drunk when you come. ”
Chi Tang really wanted to tell Wei Feng, in fact, today is the meeting of the four scholars, and the soul of the giant warrior Zhang Yan is hiding here, but after a little hesitation, he still gave up this idea, just reunited after a long absence, and it is better not to mention the shocking thing first. It is expected that Zhang Yan will follow his side, and he will naturally appear when he wants to appear.
Lu Yang agreed, and Wei Feng took Chi Tang and Han Li to the front of the military case, and said as he walked: "That Luo Laoqi is leading people to keep an eye on the east of the city, and he will return when he is young, and he smells the aroma of wine, he naturally comes uninvited, and several other old brothers in Chang'an City are there, oh, Pengcheng Rhino Shoujian does not want to serve in the army, so he has already returned first, and Jingluo, he is now the prime minister, he is very busy, and he may come to Luoyang in a few days, but Deng Fuji is guarding against the movement of the Yan army, and he can't get out. ”
Han Li suddenly asked, "What's the matter?"
"Yes, the Yan army banner appeared dozens of miles away in the east of the city, in fact, their vanguard has already come to Luoyang, the corpses of the Yan soldiers and horses in the east of the city are all over the ground, miserable, alas, ashamed, we missed this earth-shattering battle, but we sat back and enjoyed it, occupying the former capital of the Central Plains, thinking about it carefully, my heart was uneasy. Come, sit. Wei Feng asked Chitang Han Li to sit down, and asked several generals who were originally standing next to the writing and sand table with him to sit together, and without using their own soldiers, they poured a large bowl of hot rice soup for Chi Tang and Han Li from the clay pot on the charcoal fire.
"The army is simple, and when there is little wine and meat, drink some hot soup to warm up. Wei Feng greeted, and picked up the previous topic, "Later, I learned from the mouth of the Jin officials who stayed behind that the cavalry of the Yan State was personally led by the famous King of Wu Murong Chui, and fought a vicious battle with the demons of Luoyang City, Wei admired his courage, and when he really saw him in the city, he would be respectfully welcomed, he was good, Xu was worried about the entanglement between the two countries, but he retreated first." In fact, after seeing the mess in Luoyang City, whether it is the Di people, the Xianbei people, or the Jin people, then these concerns are still needed, in front of the demons, we have the same hatred. ”
Han Li heard Wei Feng's voice, and secretly said that this fierce halberd had a rough appearance, but his mind was really meticulous, and he knew his worries but he didn't break them, just by saying that King Wu Murong was coming to knock on the side.
Clearly, Han Li still didn't talk, but diverted the topic: "There are still Jin officials left behind here?"
"Ah, a Luoyang Ling surnamed Cheng, a lieutenant surnamed Zhang, and less than ten old and weak soldiers, more than 500 strong men trapped in the lonely city for seven days, and the opponent is still a vicious demon and monster, amazing!" Wei Feng praised from the bottom of his heart, and continued, "It's just that they were anxious to return to the court to report, but they left early the morning before yesterday." ”
Chi Tang followed: "What about the chief general of the Jin army here? I know his name is Shen Jin." ”
Wei Feng's expression darkened: "His body has been found in the east of the city, his head is difficult to distinguish, his body is scarred, and he has been buried in the coffin. ”
After confirming the news of Shen Jin's sacrifice, Chi Tang and Han Zheng were both heavy, and Chi Tang was even more unspeakably anxious, and he tried to make his next words not fluctuate on the surface: "I heard that there are still my fellow disciples and brothers in the city?"
Wei Feng frowned slightly, but he didn't speak, at this moment, the military tent was lifted, and the soldiers walked in with the food plate, and put it down one by one on the military case, the food was simple, more than a dozen braised red stick bones, a large stack of burnt yellow cakes, but the wine was a large urn, and the wine in the opened urn was spicy, and it was an extremely strong spirit.
Wei Feng found an opportunity to change the topic, got up and poured wine: "Come on, come on, the winter night is bitter and cold, the strong wine warms up, drink it first." ”
Chi Tang was still about to speak, but Wei Feng preemptively put the wine bowl at the end: "Come, Brother Chi, Brother Han, I'll do it first as respect." The words poured into his mouth, and the wine was dripping and sprinkled on the rhinoceros on his chest.
Helplessly, Chi Tang had to accompany a bowl, the liquor entered his throat, and the strength of the wine surged, which caused Chi Tang to cough for a while.
"Brother Chi, look at this, do you know each other?" Wei Feng didn't wait for Chi Tang to speak, but pulled the short-haired strong man in front of Chi Tang, the short-haired strong man smiled and arched his hand to Chi Tang: "Chi Daxia, it's been a long time." ”
was repeatedly interrupted by Wei Feng, Chi Tang was no longer good at asking for a while, and when he saw what Wei Feng said solemnly, he returned the salute while carefully looking at the short-haired strong man, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar he felt.
"On the fifteenth day of July last year, I was in the left side of the forest, but Chi Daxia was in the position of the forest, why, Chi Daxia has forgotten?"
Chi Tang's eyes flashed, and Huo Ran stood up: "You...... You are the brother of Leling Feiyun Palm Palace!"
......
Gong Hao met Chi Tang during the Assassination of the Emperor in Chang'an, and after that erroneous revenge, he joined Wei Feng's ghost royal camp, he actually believed what Wei Feng said in his heart, but he still had to verify it himself before he could be sure.
This stay is to be reborn, with the experience of the moonlit night demons, his courage has been sharpened, and his martial arts are strong, and he has a deep hatred for demons, and it didn't take long for Wei Feng to unravel the body of the broken emperor under Wei Feng's intentional inducement, coupled with the knowledge and experience of people in the martial arts, he quickly disappeared from the gap with Wei Feng and became his right-hand man.
Before Chi Tang entered the account, he was discussing with Wei Feng the security measures of the Ghost Imperial Camp in Luoyang, and he was also extremely surprised to see Chi Tang.
The long-ago faint memory came back to his mind, and the past of the assassin who once thought that he had been sealed in the coffin was brought up again, and with the appearance of Gong Hao, Chi Tang's doubts arose again:
"Brother Gong was also spared, but how did he get out?"
Gong Hao had to tell again how he jumped off that day, but was suddenly attacked by the banshee in the accompanying car, and how he was lucky enough to fall into the tunnel. Fortunately, the palace brother got rid of this difficulty, and the palace brother learned that Chen Song and the owner of Chen Zhai were not killed, he was captured by the demons, and he only came out of the demon's lair a few months ago, yes and yes, I have long heard that there was a person who escaped that day, and Brother Chen and I have never deduced it, but it was counted on Xiahou Tong, but I didn't expect it to be the palace brother......"
Chi Tang's words attracted Han Li's attention, and he muttered slowly, "Are you talking about that Baimo eldest son Xiahou Tong?"
