The West Kansai barrier is wide open!

The wall drums above the city lord's mansion thundered, and the clouds were swept away in a trance, and the three long lines were divided into upper, middle and lower, and the iron horse stepped on the ground like a torrent.

Qingjia Ru will sit on horseback, and the thin swordsman beside him does not ride a horse, but has a long breath, one hand is gently supported on the side of the head of Jiang Qingyi's horse, his feet are constantly stepping on the ground, and his long hair on his temples is constantly flowing and undulating.

Ren Pingsheng was promoted to the realm of grandmasters not long ago.

He has always had the habit of raising swords, and he has a sword intent that needs to be tempered. The so-called thousands of tempers, day after day, even if he is in a hurry, he still half-closes his eyes, seems to be asleep and wakes up, and the sword box of nine hatreds behind him rises and falls with his sideburns.

The speed at which the three-way army marched towards the Western Regions was not very fast.

At least Jiang Qingyi's middle route is not fast, the three armies are not separated by a few miles, and if anyone is the first to encounter an ambush, he can retreat with his whole body.

Dong Yun and Guo Youzhi are both literary generals.

The three generals hand-picked by Jiang Qingyi went to the three-way long line, while Dong Yun and Guo Youzhi each carefully rode on their war horses and followed Jiang Qingyi on both sides.

"This is the war horse of Xiguan, which is different from the inner soil of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and has a very strong temperament, so it needs to be carefully controlled, otherwise it is easy to fall off the horse. The young Confucian general in Qingjia, who was neither fast nor slow, glanced at the two people who were about the same age as him: "The two of you...... Don't seem to want to come with me?"

Dong Yun remained silent.

Guo Youzhi said in a low voice: "It's not that I don't want to, but I can't." ”

"When a country is so big, the generals charge into battle, kill the enemy and drink blood, and the scribes sit behind the scenes, giving instructions and making plans. Guo Youzhi narrowed his eyes and said seriously: "Master Jiang is a figure who is both civil and military, Guo thinks he is inferior, but Guo has no power to restrain the chicken, if he goes to the battlefield and really encounters a demon beast, he can only be buried here." ”

He paused and said word by word: "Guo is not afraid of death, but if Guo dies on the front line of the battlefield, it will inevitably waste a good head of the Northern Wei Dynasty." ”

Jiang Qingyi smiled.

If he had said this two years ago, he really didn't know how to respond.

At this moment, he smiled, but only smiled.

Dong Yun suddenly spoke: "After three miles, I will go out of the border of Xiguan and arrive at the Western Regions covered by the mountains and seas today. ”

Outside the western rampart, like the beacon, there is a buffer zone.

It is similar to the "terracotta" outside the Great Wall of Fengsui.

Not long ago, the children of the scout camp who escaped from the tiger's mouth in the Western Regions escaped from this long line.

Jiang Qingyi's voice was not loud, but it was clearly audible: "The scout battalion brother who fled back at that time left that information after he came back, and then was quickly sent to the Misty Slope for treatment of his injuries. ”

"And after that. ”

Jiang Qingyi's tone was wooden: "In just twelve hours, he died of anger." ”

Guo Youzhi suddenly contracted his pupils.

He looked at the Governor of the Western Barrier beside him in amazement.

"It's a little strange, isn't it?" Jiang Qingyi's lips raised slightly, and he said thoughtfully: "He returned to Xiguan just to pass on this news, just like someone sent him back, just to send this letter back." ”

So he did it, and he was able to escape from the snowfields for hundreds of miles. ”

"Even the Demon Clan's "Classic of Mountains and Seas" failed to leave his life. ”

Jiang Qingyi narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "It is said that he is blessed with a great life, but after returning to Xiguan, he died on the ethereal slope, but the world is ...... Where is such a coincidence?"

Guo Youzhi pursed his lips.

He heard the Confucian general, who had obviously washed away his immature temperament in the flames of war, speak calmly and call out his name.

"Guo Youzhi—"

Trance.

"Do you think that the owner of this name should be above the temple of the Northern Wei Dynasty, preferably in the imperial capital of Luoyang, admired by 10,000 people, and at least be able to tattoo peacocks on the clothes, preferably cranes. Jiang Qingyi said slowly: "And then like this, even if you have done your duty, you will go to share your worries for Your Majesty, govern the Northern Wei Dynasty, do your best, and die." In this way, this head can be regarded as able to die in peace...... Right?"

Guo Youzhi opened his mouth slightly.

He didn't know what to say.

He doesn't deny it, and it is.

Who wouldn't want that?

He is not a hypocritical person.

So he didn't shake his head, but said in a low voice, "Yes." ”

Jiang Qingyi smiled: "I think so too." ”

Guo Youzhi was slightly stunned.

"The Northern Wei Dynasty has 100,000 miles of floating soil and four major gorges. ”

"Yes...... Millions of soldiers!"

Jiang Qingyi asked indifferently: "Then after reading the book, should you go to Luoyang?

Guo Youzhi shook his head.

That's not the case.

"Listen up...... Guo Youzhi, Dong Yun!"

Jiang Qingyi slowly raised her voice.

"I know you guys...... Not like everyone else. ”

"You've got one more thing called a brain. ”

"But you think of war too well. ”

"When a city is surrounded, not only the soldiers, but also the old people and women inside have to raise their weapons, let alone the scholars?"

"You think I'm unreasonable?"

"I'm just unreasonable. ”

"Where does the truth come from in this world?!"

"When you come to Xiguan, you have to accept the truth of Xiguan——"

This sentence rolls like thunder.

The whole army could hear it.

"I'm a Xiguan man...... No matter how martial arts, you have to wear a sword!

"Life is life, death is death!"

Jiang Qingyi's voice was cold, and then he suddenly lowered it to the point that only a few people could hear it.

"The two...... Xiguan is the time when there is a shortage of people, and now that it is here, don't think about going back. ”

Guo Youzhi and Dong Yun looked at the young Qingjia Confucian general who quickly changed his face in a daze.

These few roars have stopped the two of them, and they are confused.

Jiang Qingyi regained a gentle smile on her face.

"In the days of Luoyang, how can there be a good Xiguan?" he said with a smile: "There are endless battles in Xiguan, and there are endless meritorious deeds, so it is decided, and after a while, the two will separate, each leading a battalion, which can be regarded as practice." ”

Jiang Qingyi continued to speak at a reduced pace, and continued to lower his voice, which was regarded as telling a little secret.

"In Xiguan, if you want to convince the public, you can only do this. ”

He narrowed his eyes, and his narrow eyes flowed, "One battalion of one thousand, a total of three thousand, this battle is too little pursuit, and the death is almost the same, since I dare to go out of battle, I will not let Xiguan lose the camp." ”

Guo Youzhi suddenly realized.

The Qingjia Confucian general in front of him is really leaky.

"Luoyang is waiting for my news, and the same is true for Xiguan. Jiang Qingyi said softly: "Xiguan can do anything, but you can't stare dryly." ”

"This trip, if we encounter a beast tide, we will retreat. ”

"If you can't meet the beast tide...... Jiang Qingyi raised her eyebrows, "I have to figure out one thing." ”

Ren Pingsheng, who was gently holding on to the side of the horse's head with one hand, suddenly stopped on the soles of his feet.

The yellow sand of the permafrost sneered and splattered.

Jiang Qingyi suddenly raised an arm.

"Stop—"

The entire army slowly stopped advancing with Ren Pingsheng's step, as well as Jiang Qingyi's gesture of raising his arms.

Jiang Qingyi looked into the distance.

A long line separates them.

In the distance is a snowy field.

Western regions. Demon Clan.

Qingjia Ru will turn over and dismount.

"That's where that scout started to escape from the Western Regions, and was then discovered by the guards of Xiguan. Jiang Qingyi raised his eyebrows: "The Classic of Mountains and Seas in the Western Regions can isolate the breath of the demon clan. ”

"I can't figure out something, and now I have to figure it out......"

Jiang Qingyi's voice did not fall.

Dong Yun, who had been silent, said softly, "How far is Eight-Foot Mountain from here?"

Jiang Qingyi didn't look up, lowered his body, twisted up a handful of broken soil, and kneaded it carefully.

"Far away. Very far. ”

Jiang Qingyi's gaze wandered on the broken earth.

"If Xiguan wants to hit the eight-foot mountain, it will take dozens of days to advance just by advancing a large army. ”

Dong Yun hesitated for a moment and spoke: "That...... How far can the Mountains and Seas envelop?"

The young Qingjia general frowned.

He shook his head, a little confused: "I...... I don't know. ”

Ren Pingsheng explained: "It stands to reason that it should not be able to cover the border of Xiguan from Bachi Mountain. ”

Dong Yun lowered his eyebrows, and like a light coat, he picked up some broken soil, rested it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it gently.

He frowned, not noticing the difference.

"Master Jiang, what are you suspecting?" Guo Youzhi also squatted down, pinched up the broken soil, and kneaded it carefully, and found that there was no difference.

Jiang Qingyi glanced at Guo Youzhi: "You don't cultivate, you can't smell the demonic energy." ”

Ren Pingsheng took Jiang Qingyi's words, and said quietly: "Qingyi suspects that there is a big demon outside the terracotta who has planted Gu in the scout's body. The scout didn't leave a word, just a long letter streaked with blood. The content of the letter is only a few sentences: '200,000 beasts tide south'. ”

Guo Youzhi's face was solemn.

Ren Pingsheng continued: "But here...... There is no trace of demonic overflow. ”

He looked into the distance and frowned, "If you go further, there are mountains and seas that are isolated, and you shouldn't be able to detect the demonic energy." ”

Jiang Qingyi snorted.

He looked into the distance.

frowned.

"I suspect that the letter is misleading. ”

"Yes, I am sure that the information on the letter is true. ”

"The 200,000 beast tides in the Western Regions have all gone south to fight the beacons. ”

Jiang Qingyi took a deep breath and tried to clear his mind.

He couldn't figure it out.

Is all this really just a coincidence?

"Dong Yun. ”

"Guo Youzhi. ”

He whispered, "You have one battalion for each of you." We...... Go home and discuss it again. ”

Three battalion commanders.

Jiang Qingyi watched the three battalion commanders move like a fish and began to move slowly.

There was a string in his head that he couldn't match.

Why is there no trace of demonic energy on the border line?

Wait a minute...... It's normal to have a faint demonic aura, how can it be that there is nothing left?

At this moment, there was a flash of inspiration.

Boom in my head!

Jiang Qingyi suddenly opened his eyes.

Jiang Qingyi, who figured everything out, realized that he woke up too late.

Ren Pingsheng beside him had a solemn face and snorted.

"Someone is coming. ”

Vast snowy fields in the distance.

There is a fiery red figure, dragging the snow, trampling the earth barefoot, rumbling and dragging the snow.

From afar.

Thousands of troops rushed to the outside of the western barrier.

She's only one person.
