Chapter 18: Coming from the East

At the border of the two states of Beidi and Jianji, the Kongsang Mountains that protrude into the eastern part of the state from north to south are now low, and although they try their best to cast a cool shadow in the hot summer, some of the remaining veins will inevitably gradually flatten after all, revealing a vast field scorched by the sun.

This place with mountains and wilderness is still some distance away from the hinterland of Jianzhou, except for the army and business travel, there have always been few people, but at this moment, there is a cavalry team parked in the last cool mountain shadow and looks east.

The cavalry numbered about 500 men, all of them carrying swords and swords, and they were fierce and fierce, but they were not caravans of self-protection and were loosely arrayed, neither a caravan of self-protection nor a disciplined army.

"Chief of the guard, after this place is the boundary of Jianzhou, and it is completely out of the territory of my Northwest Fourth Military State, and the barbarians in the north are no longer Bai Rong, but Hei Di. ”

The cavalry team is obviously led by the eleven horsemen in white armor who are at the head, of different ages, young and prime, but the aura they exude is extremely eye-catching, and they all have the cultivation of the Qi Cultivation Realm.

The person who spoke was one of them, he was nearly middle-aged, faintly practicing the peak of qi, and under his crotch was the Xihe Dragon Horse who was famous in the north, and a white brocade robe was woven from the precious cloud brocade produced in Yunzhou, and a light armor made of white wolf skin was put on the outside.

Such extravagant and eye-catching outfits are only available in the Northland, and only the dead white wolf riders raised by the Gongxi clan can be called the only one without a semicolon.

"There is still a garrison on this empty Sang Mountain, but Jianzhou has not placed a single soldier, so you are really not afraid that someone will cross the border and sneak attack?"

The one who answered was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, also dressed as a white wolf, and carrying a long iron knife that was too large compared to his size.

The young man stood in the middle, as the "chief of the guard" in the mouth of the middle-aged white wolf, and it was obvious that he was the leader of the five hundred horsemen.

His face is dignified, his posture is vigorous, and he sits straight on horseback, like a stiff bow with a tight string, and like a deeply rooted and vigorous overbearing green pine, not only can not see a little childishness, but shows the atmosphere and calmness that adults may not have, if combined with the breath of the initial realm of qi cultivation on his body, the pleasing eyes and respect in the eyes of the rest of the white wolves are no longer too puzzling.

The middle-aged white wolf heard the words and explained: "No garrison does not mean that the news is closed, the green forest of Jianzhou has always been powerful, the countryside is full of strong and strong, and the fortress is dense, although most of the time they are fighting separately, but they are not afraid of sneak attacks, but they are afraid that as soon as Hei Di enters, the nearby fort has already taken the first step to clear the wall, and the village is waiting for reinforcements from the state and county, otherwise it is necessary to hold the Jianzhou, which is the most narrow relative to the other three states but has fertile land and rich in gold and iron, and it may not be enough to double the border army of the imperial court." ”

His tone was extremely firm, it could be seen that it was no fluke that the Gongxi clan could become the uncrowned king of Ganzhou today, and his power was faintly spread all over the north, even if he was far away, he still knew a lot about the inside of Jianzhou.

The young man nodded, frowned again and said: "When you get to Jizhou, you are not allowed to call me the chief of the guard again, Xiaobai Gongzi asked you to follow me Liu Quai, especially with a rare master like you, it is too much to say that it is a reward, but I still agreed without hesitation, Gongxi Nineteen, do you know why?"

The middle-aged white wolf named Gongxi Nineteen bowed his head slightly, was silent, and did not say a word.

He knew that since he had finally left the Northwest Four Military Prefectures, this young guard chief who had destroyed countless doors in Ganzhou and personally led people to build several bloody Jingguan would no longer have any scruples, and would definitely show his sharp fangs.

Thinking of this, Gongxi Nineteen couldn't help but glance back behind him.

This cavalry team, the core of the ten white wolf arch guard Liu Quai, the periphery is a hundred horses and a hundred battles for the rest of the Gongxi iron cavalry, most of these people are unruly, violated the military law and should be beheaded but because of the guard chief's words and lived, the Gongxi camp naturally can't stay, and by this great grace, the lonely soul and wild ghost come out to sell their lives, which is more desperate.

On the periphery, it is the Tianshui knife guest recruited by Liu Qubing from his hometown, which is the private army of the chief of the guard, and it is still a messy ranger outfit to this day, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the good and the bad are uneven, and the fish and dragons are mixed, and there are even many half-old children, who are like mud monkeys when they first came, and they don't even have a decent knife in their hands, but they are all murderous. Fearless of death, after several heavy casualties, most of the lucky survivors were reborn, even if the realm was still low, it was still a sight to be seen by veterans of a hundred battles such as Gongxi Nineteen.

Liu Quzhi was unimpressed by Gongxi Nineteen's silence, and said lightly: "That's because, even if you are as talented as Xiaobai Gongzi, you are willing to have a life-and-death relationship with my second master. ”

Gongxi XIX bowed his head again, and pressed his head a little lower than before.

The news of the second master in the mouth of the chief of the guard has been continuously sent to the Gongxi camp, and as a henchman of the young master, he naturally knows a thing or two, although he is a little dissatisfied with the black crow captain who was kicked to Jizhou by General Shuofang, and he is skeptical about this person's seemingly bluffing achievements, but at this moment, he has no heart to refute the chief of the guard who will definitely not listen to any objections.

A young man who was originally so calm and even cold-blooded, his qualifications are also extraordinary, and he has already shown a bit of a heroic posture, if he stays with the young master, he will definitely have a great future in the future, but when he mentions that person, he will become so blind and fanatical, it is simply irrational.

Seeing the appearance of Gongxi Nineteen, Liu Qu's eyes were slightly cold, and he was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a loud chirp above his head.

He looked up and saw a falcon rushing vertically from the clear sky.

Gongxi Nineteen naturally saw it, and he raised his left arm without hesitation and took the falcon that Gongxi used to communicate steadily.

The letter was respectfully passed to Liu Quai's hand, and he took it and looked at it, his eyes widened, as if a bright light flashed in his eyes, and a heartfelt smile was added to his face at the same time.

He handed the spread letter back to Gongxi Nineteen, and said with a smile: "Take a look for yourself!"

Gongxi Nineteen answered, looked down, and saw that the small note was densely written with fly's heads.

"A month ago, the battle under Jincheng Pass, the casualties were very serious, Liu Tugou rushed into battle, pressed Xiao Dao Temple with a knife, cut off the banner of the Golden Wolf Army, and Helan Khan was seriously injured and fled north. ”

"The edict of the prison marquis, the black crow guard entered the Beijing division of the edict prison, and the subordinates found out that if there is no accident, it will be in the Hengshan camp to reorganize the army, and it is suspected that there are other people and horses who have been recruited together, and they are coming one after another, and the inside story is unknown. ”

After reading it carefully, Gongxi's face was a little ugly.

"What's the matter? Do you ten continue to follow Gongzi's order to Shuofang or Jincheng, or follow me to Beiding Mansion to Jingshi, or even ...... Edict?"

Gongxi Nineteen raised his head when he heard the sound, gritted his teeth, his face was bruised, and he was silent for a long time before he said with difficulty: "You must ask the young master to show me, and I naturally obeyed the orders of the chief of the guard before!"

Liu Qu got sick with this answer, sneered, waved his hand carelessly, and then said categorically: "Pass my order, before arriving in Beiding Mansion, everyone must dye all the skins on their bodies black for me, otherwise what kind of black crow is it?"
