Chapter 11: Riding Together

"Who said that Uncle Ben is hiding, Uncle Ben just happened to come here, Shen Fei, you stinky boy don't give me much pride. ”

"Thanks, thanks. Shen Fei and Chu Xie were fighting, and Tuoba Lie was surprised. The battle between the two Tuoba Lie has been seen with his own eyes, and it is obvious that the battle is a posture of fighting for his life, and I don't know why the relationship has not only eased when they meet again, but also seems to be very close. He didn't understand that this was the way it should be, because outsiders would never understand the sympathy between heroes.

Nalan Ruoxue flew over on the second child, landed beside Chu Xie, and said unexpectedly: "Brother Chu Xie, why are you, are you going to leave Jinling with us?"

Without waiting for Chu Xie to answer, Shen Fei took over the conversation and said, "Chu Xie wants to go on the road with us and go to the imperial capital." ”

"That's the case......" Nalan Ruoxue was obviously unhappy, she didn't want to have a light bulb lit all the way, hindering the relationship between herself and Shen Fei. Speaking of her actual age, she is actually one year older than Chu Xie, but Chu Xie has been tall since he was a child, so he calls him his elder brother.

But he heard Chu Xie say: "Actually, I'm just waiting for the opportunity to have a fair duel with Shen Fei again, don't listen to his nonsense." "It's a dead duck with a hard mouth.

However, in this way, with the help of Chu Xie, it is equivalent to adding a strong reinforcement and adding a guarantee for the smooth journey.

At the same time, when Chu Xie appeared, Ling Hu Xuanzhou's face suddenly became ugly, he changed the posture he had been lying down and sat up, opened the curtain and looked out, and after confirming that it was really Chu Xie, he sighed: "How did the two of them come together, it's really an evil sect!" A Shen Fei is already difficult to deal with, if Chu Xie is added, I don't know if I can eat it." ”

Lan'er said angrily: "Hmph, my master is very powerful, even if no one helps, he won't ......" The latter words came to an abrupt end, because Linghu Xuanzhou suddenly turned his head, his expression was fierce, and Lan'er was so frightened that he didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.

Linghu Xuanzhou snorted heavily and retreated into the car: "I have a relationship with your master, how can there be a maid who can judge the matter, and I will tear it up if I don't care about that mouth."

The angry Linghu Hanging Boat was fierce and vicious, and his momentum was awe-inspiring, so frightened that Lan'er didn't dare to say a word.

The miserable moon was in the sky, this time, the army could finally set off smoothly, and a group of spectators watched them leave, and at the same time there was a trace of regret in their hearts, regretting that Shen Fei, who had finally brought a glimmer of light to Jinling City, walked away like this, and the road ahead was long, and there was little luck.

When he walked out of the city gate, Shen Fei took one last look behind him, looking at this flowery city still shining at night, like a bright pearl illuminating the estuary of hundreds of rivers and rivers, and his heart was lost. Jinling City brought him a lot of memories, let him get to know a lot of people and at the same time with a lot of enemies, helped him to understand more deeply the power structure of the human country, after this, leaving Jinling is an inevitable choice, but after leaving Jinling, waiting for him will be the most powerful opponent in the human country, need to face the most brutal rebellion within the royal family, obviously, it is not easy to tear through the shady curtain to create miracles.

The energy of a snake in Jinling City is so huge, not to mention the princes and nobles living in the imperial capital, there is no doubt that there will be a difficult challenge waiting for them.

Looking at the flowery Jinling City for the last time, Shen Fei turned around and shook the reins violently: "Drive! Look up to the sky and laugh out of the city, how can I be a Penghao person!"

"Drive!" Tuoba Lie drove the white horse and chased after him, "Life should be a masterpiece, death is also a ghost, drive!"

Chu Xie sat on the back of the leader of the five thousand wild horses, and chased the two from behind: "The masters in the imperial capital have wiped my ass clean and waited, Uncle Ben is here!"

The three of them rode together, full of spirit, and their ambitions were unpaid, but they didn't know how long this spirit could last......

As the most dazzling pearl in the south of the empire, Jinling City is the estuary of hundreds of rivers and rivers, and its geographical location is extremely special. From there, head north along the jagged coastline to Nantong City.

If Jinling City is an important commercial town, then Nantong City is an out-and-out military town, and the purpose of its existence is to defend the peace of the coastline against enemies from the sea. There are 10,000 garrisons in Nantong City, all of which are the elite forces of the Southern Army, and the thousand-strong army that was sent to Jinling City to help Tuoba Lie capture Linghu Hanging Boat came from here, so the local magistrate knew very well what happened in Jinling City.

The non-stop rapid march for a night and a day, as Shen Fei expected, did not encounter any ambush, but the soldiers were a little tired, after all, in order to pursue speed, they did not even eat a meal along the way, endured hunger and fatigue, and suffered from Nantong City.

Finally seeing the city, the soldiers finally breathed a sigh of relief, the queue was a little scattered, and they were reprimanded by Tuobalie, the reorganization was completed, and the spirit was lifted.

Tuoba Lie said: "You should know Nantong City better than me, come here, you can relax a little and rest for a day." "It's night when I set off, it's night when I come to Nantong, it's about two miles away from the city wall, and I can clearly see the sergeants guarding the city wall, Tuoba Lie is actually the same as the soldiers, and he is also relieved, although he is riding on a horse, he is not easy on this road, after all, he has to always worry about the sneak attack from where he doesn't know, and the tension in his heart is not comparable to the soldiers. When I finally saw the Imperial Army, I felt like I was home, and I was secretly relieved, but I couldn't show it, if the commander behaved freely and relaxedly, the soldiers would have the same and learn the same.

"Nantong. Shen Fei had never been here, and saw that the city wall of Nantong City was towering, heavily guarded, and there were bunkers under the city tower to prevent the enemy from attacking the door wall, and he couldn't help but admire: "What a military fortress, although the distance is very close, but the style of Jinling City is really not different at all." ”

Tuoba Lie said: "Nantong is one of the coastal military fortresses, guarded by General Wang Lin himself, and all commodity trade is strictly prohibited, and Jinling City is completely the opposite type. ”

"General Wang Lin, do you know him?"

"As a fellow soldier, it shouldn't be difficult to speak. ”

"I think let's hurry up and enter the city, the soldiers are tired, hurry up and find a place to rest, recover their strength, replenish food and grass, and go on the road tomorrow. ”

"Let's go. "Outside the city of Nantong City, a horse Pingchuan, within a radius of ten miles, all the woods are cut down, the bare ground is exposed to prevent the enemy from lurking, the city wall is as high as fifteen meters, covers an area of thirty-three square kilometers, there are twenty-five ballistae facing the sea, twenty-five ballista cars are aimed at the city, guarding the forest.

At night, when the gates of the city were closed, and there were guards patrolling the city, seeing a huge procession from far and near, the guards were on guard at the same time, and their spears rushed out, forming a phalanx, and the captain of the guard walked out of the queue, raised his right hand and shouted: "Who is there, this is the important military town of the Empire, I order you to stop advancing at once and leave this place." ”

The captain of the guard had a loud voice, and the night guard was also full of spirits, and he did not slack off, but he saw three tall horses being ridden in the dark, from far and near, completely ignoring his obstruction, showing a vigilant look at the moment, raised his right hand, and ordered the patrol army to step forward slowly, and the tips of the guns rushed out, forming a moving gun array.

"Whew, ha, ha!" The guards shouted loudly every step forward, attracting the attention of the soldiers of the city, who immediately lit barrels of fire to light up the night. The head of Nantong City puts a fire bucket every thirty steps, and puts a torch every ten steps, generally speaking, because the black oil is precious, in order to save raw materials, it is only to light the torch, not to burn the fire barrel, only when the enemy is found, the fire barrel will burn, so as to illuminate the dark night and open up the line of sight.

When lit, the fire barrel is made of stone and engraved with the pattern of a fierce beast, and when it is lit, the flames are two meters high, which immediately illuminates the night and is also a signal to the soldiers in the city that danger is coming.

The light of the fire came from the sky, reflecting the silhouettes of the three sitting on horses slowly appearing, and the chief of the city patrol was the closest and could see it clearly. On the left-hand side, a person sits on a white high-legged horse, wearing a military uniform, with a cloak of more than three meters behind his back, extending from the horse's back to the horse's hips, with the breeze moving forward, the cloak flies up, crimson like a flag; the body is tight, fitted, it is the clothes that can only be worn by imperial generals, green with gray, tight-fitting shape, thick and windproof; the appearance is magnificent, the age is thirty years away, the figure is tough and tall, especially sitting on horseback, it looks heroic and imposing; the right hand holds a Fang Tian halberd, the left hand pulls the reins, leading the horse to come, the eyes are cold and arrogant。 Seeing this person's dress, bearing, and the tall horse he was sitting on, the city patrol chief immediately realized that the other party's identity was far above him, but he still did not relax his vigilance, and kept his guard and watched the other two people who came together.

Opposite the middle-aged man in military uniform was a taller young man, sitting down the horse's black mane glowing purple, thick nose spewing gray-black smoke with the rhythm of wheezing, eyes are triangular, almost like a wolf, staring at you makes you shudder; 。 The young man sitting on the horse is even more amazing, with a broad back, strong muscles, a tattoo of a galloping horse on his bare upper body, wearing Western Regions breeches, riding boots, and carrying a heavy sword, the hilt of the sword is exposed from the shoulder, looking at the length and breadth scale, only such a strong man can wield.

His eyes were lazy, listless, and his messy hair was like a chicken nest, which didn't match the strong muscles.

"Could it be a foreign swordsman? But no, how could a foreign swordsman get together with a high-ranking imperial officer?" The city patrol chief was completely confused, he knew very well that Tuoba Lie was wearing a military uniform that only generals could wear, and under his crotch was riding a tall horse that was only produced in the frontier, but he couldn't guess why such a commander would walk with a swordsman who seemed to be from a foreign country.

I couldn't think clearly, so I fixed my eyes on the person in the middle, and my eyes were even wider, and I gasped. Everyone knows that the middle is in the right position, and being able to ride a horse between two such extraordinary men shows that this person's status is even higher than the two.

The prefect of the city guard looked intently, but he saw a pair of cyan flowing clothes, the clothes were slightly wide, folded and tightened left and right, and the belt was tied in the middle, probably the Taoist clothes that only Taoist priests would wear. But although this person is wearing Taoist clothes, he is not at all as gray-haired and fairy-haired as the Taoist priest in his impression, but it is another extreme. Short hair to the sky, tiger eyes and eagle eyebrows, everywhere revealed a fierce energy, is the only one among the three who did not hold a weapon, the figure is also tall, the horse sitting is also a black mane, the fur is as smooth and shiny as satin, the legs are tall and long, not under the black horse next to him. But what made the prefect of the city guard incredible was that the young man in the middle of the cyan robe came over on horseback, as if carrying an incredible momentum, so that your eyes would not be taken away by the fierce horse under him at all, and completely fell on him, feeling that he was carrying the general trend of the world and coming over, with a sense of pleasure like a storm.

With Shen Fei's current realm, of course, it is impossible to carry the world's major events for his own use, and it will bring such a feeling to the guard chief, because he has practiced the Junzi Qi Technique, and can invisibly control the qi and luck, which naturally reveals a state that is close to being natural.

Seeing the three of them riding away, the city patrol chief couldn't help but gasp and sweat on his forehead. Although there were thousands of troops behind him, in front of these three people, the city patrol chief still had a feeling that he could not resist at all, especially the person in the middle, although he was the most gentle-looking, but he also made him feel the most afraid.

Shen Fei, Tuoba Lie, and Chu Xie were neck and neck, majestic, and the three people in the darkness who were originally deep in the depths jumped into sight with the rise of the firelight, as if the three great killing gods were approaching with their heads held high.

"Whoever comes, if they do not stop, will be treated as a war, and will be ruthlessly trampled by the hooves of our horses. "The commander of the city patrol strives to maintain the dignity of the officer, and does not retreat under the pressure of the three men. A small city patrol commander can do this, which shows that the atmosphere of the army is really not comparable to other imperial departments.

I haven't received an answer, but I feel a gust of gloomy wind, and there is a low and hoarse voice in my ears, like a wolf howl from the netherworld that hits the deepest part of people's hearts, and the wolf howls rise and fall, as if from every corner of heaven and earth, as if from the same howl of many wolves. Hearing the sound of the wolf's howl, the guard was really a little frightened, and he tightened his neck and scanned his eyes around, looking for sounds from nowhere, looking for danger that might appear at any time.
