Chapter Twenty-Three: Jiayu Moonlight (I)
The golden-clothed armor warriors of the Western Kingdom of Yunhai pursued Ashina all the way, passing through the barren sand of the West Sea and the ancient city of Dunhuang in the Western Regions to reach the Jiayu Pass of the Ming Pass. After the Ming Taizu www.biquge.info first set the world, he sent heavy troops to build a pass to resist the Mengyuan, and Jiayuguan crossed the desert and the Gobi was built by the mountains, connecting Jiuquan in the east, Yumen in the west, Montenegro in the back, and Qilian in the south.
In order to prevent Mengyuan from spying, it was built from Jiayuguan. The person who clears the customs must have the Great Ming Rune, otherwise any caravan and travel will not be able to pass. Jiayuguan city is swallowed heavy troops, directly ordered Jinling, if there is a war, there is Chang'an garrison at any time to help.
"Master, we will go to Jiayu Pass in front," a burly man in black beside Ashina said worriedly, "but we don't have a token, so we can't clear the customs." ”
"It's okay, let's find a place outside the city to relax first, take advantage of the night to climb over the city wall and enter the customs, and then hurry up and get to Chang'an in a few days. The corners of Ashina's mouth trembled slightly, and she held back the pain and said to the four disciples behind her.
"Yes," the four replied in a low voice.
The crowd followed behind the caravan and slowly marched towards Jiayuguan City.
......
A team of gold-clothed armor soldiers galloped past from Ashina and the others, and rushed straight to the city of Jiayuguan.
"Who's here?" the Da Ming armor soldiers under the city surrounded the gold-clothed armor soldiers, and a sturdy general stood at the head of the city and shouted loudly, "You dare to break through." ”
"Below is the Yunhai Western Kingdom Tuoba Hao" The golden-clothed armor soldier who took the lead was dressed in a gorgeous costume, his legs tightly clamped the horse's body, and shouted loudly to the city, "This is the customs clearance token." He took out a red gold token from his bosom with his left hand and glanced at the Ming military officers and soldiers under the city.
"Bring it up," the general at the head of the city motioned to the soldiers at the gate to bring the token of the golden-clad warrior to the city. A soldier took the token from Tuoba Hao's hand and hurried up to the city to hand it to the sturdy general.
"General Feng, this token is the token of the Zhenfu Division" An adjutant general beside the strong general looked at the token and said in a low voice.
"Whatever! Something happened, and I had to carry my own surname. The sturdy general threw the token under the city and said coldly, "You can clear the customs and enter the city." ”
"Wait," the red-clothed all hurriedly stopped, "General Feng, even if they have the token of the Suppression Division, we should still check their belongings." ”
"Zheng Jin, it's not your turn to point fingers here, I, Feng Gaoyi, have my own measure. The sturdy general snapped at the lieutenant beside him.
Since the completion of Jiayu Pass, Feng Guosheng, the Duke of the Song Dynasty, in order to monopolize the power of the frontier, strongly recommended his nephew Feng Gaoyi as the general army to sit in the northwest, and the king of Qin was the horn of each other. And Feng Gaoyi inherited Yinde, and was deeply loved by Taizu, and commanded the seven guards in the northwest at Jiayuguan, and everything in the guard was empty.
"But..."Zheng Jin motioned for the soldiers in the city to let him go for the time being, and whispered to Feng Gaoyi, "You know the emperor's temper. If we let the Mongol spies into the city, we will be beheaded. ”
However, Feng Gaoyi on the side didn't seem to listen. Just because a few days ago, he received a message from Jinling Mansion that if a team of Xihai armor soldiers entered the customs with a Jinyi guard token, they would be allowed to go directly without hindrance.
Therefore, he didn't care about Zheng Jin's loyalty, he stretched his waist against the city wall and smiled at Zheng Jin on the side, "Brother Zheng, if you don't feel at ease, you can go down and check yourself." If you offend the Jinyi Guard, you won't have good fruit to eat even in this land. He looked at Zheng Jin on the side expressionlessly, and his tone was very strange.
"This..."Zheng Jin hesitated for a moment, then shouted to the golden-clothed armor soldiers under the city, "Release!"
Feng Gaoyi patted Zheng Jin on the shoulder and smiled, "That's right, even if something happens, we can push it on Ning Wuji's old man." ”
"But... I'm still a little worried," Zheng Jin worried.
"What's there to worry about, even if the emperor blames it, our duty is to guard the land of the Seven Guards, and other places have nothing to do with us. Feng Gaoyi pulled Zheng Jin and walked in the direction of Beicheng. "Let's go... Our two brothers went to inspect the North City again, and I heard that there have been some changes at the North Gate recently. ”
"Really, then hurry up and take a look," the two walked side by side towards the north of Jiayuguan City.
The officers and soldiers under the city pushed open the city gate, and the golden-clothed armor soldiers and a group of more than ten people galloped through the Jiayu Pass and galloped towards the pass.
.......
The Jiayuguan under the cold moon was particularly cold, and the armor soldiers in the city gathered around the bonfire in groups to keep warm. Ashina jumped over the Jiayuguan city wall more than ten zhang high in the night, and several people behind him walked up to the city in turn.
"Master, you have been seriously injured and have been suffering for so long. Why don't we rest for the night in an inn in the city..."A man in black was very worried when he saw Ashina's pale face.
Ashina glanced at him, hoarse, panting, shaking his head and whispering, "Zejun!"
"Master" Ashina, the other three men in black beside him looked at him with concern. The four of them knew that if Ashina had any accidents on the way to the Central Plains, the West Palace would completely become a world of Tuoba and a lineage.
The black-clothed man who was called Zejun by Ashina, under the city wall, glanced around, and lowered his voice and said, "Master, you just listen to the advice of your disciples." Even if we rush to Chang'an, you have to take care of your body. Otherwise, before we arrived in Jinling, we would have met the gold-clothed armor again. ”
"Yes..."Several other men in black beside Ashina replied in unison.
Ashina was silent for a moment, endured the pain in his chest, and said in a low voice, "Okay, let's relax for the night and leave early tomorrow morning." Everyone hurriedly helped Ashina to take advantage of the night to go to the city, and quietly sneaked into the market in Jiayuguan in the night light.
