Chapter 304: Heading West

The grievances of the rivers and lakes are disturbed,

When to terminate and when to rest.

The world is surging,

It's not like it's life.

Some people may think that after the demise of the former Shu, there will inevitably be a turmoil in Shu.

Some people may think that it must be those Jianghu sects who are making waves in Shu.

But no one expected that this Jianghu sect would eventually perish because of a small sect that did not enter the stream.

After burying Ji Haokong, Tao Beisheng walked all over Shu with one person and one sword, turning the Holy Dragon Pavilion upside down.

During this period, someone saw Tao Beisheng, and some people said that he was a person.

It was also said that he was accompanied by a woman.

The two grandfathers and grandsons of the storyteller, the granddaughter played the leather drum, and the grandfather spoke eloquently on the side, and everyone in the tavern listened to it fascinated.

When the rivers and lakes come, they are all stories that they are willing to hear.

Because the rivers and lakes are not somewhere, but in people's hearts.

How big a person's heart is, how big the rivers and lakes are.

After saying that, the old man picked up the bookcase, glanced at the little granddaughter, and said, "Good grandson, we should go, we have to go to the next place to tell the story." ”

The little girl was curious and asked, "Grandpa, where are we going next?"

"Grandpa wants to go to the desert to see. ”

The old man looked up and smiled, and said, "I heard that there are many stories happening in the desert, let's go over there to listen to them more, see more, and when we come back, we will tell you a story." ”

After speaking, the pair of grandchildren left the tavern and traveled west.

No one knows where the pair came from.

No one knows where the pair of grandchildren are going.

But many people have seen them, and whenever something big happens, someone will see them telling stories in a tavern.

The story may be a matter of rivers and lakes, or a temple matter.

No one knows where they heard these stories, or what they told them for.

At the same time that they walked out of the tavern, there were also three horsemen in the territory of Ye who rode out of Huma Pass and went straight to the depths of the desert.

One person was wearing a white brocade robe with two long swords hanging from his waist, while the other two were wearing cloth clothes with a hundred-fold horizontal knife with the characteristics of the Northwest Army hanging from his waist.

Wearing a white brocade robe is naturally the commander of the Northwest Army, the Dingxi Marquis of Ye State, Chu Yujia.

And the other two servants were once upon a time with Chu Yujia in a big battle with the melting gold and sunset.

These two were originally slaves in the Imperial General's Mansion, and although their skills were good, they were still slaves.

Fortunately, he met Chu Yujia, and Chu Yujia was also willing to give these two people a chance to get ahead, so he directly brought the two back to Ye Guo, and even let the two be his own escorts.

The name Molten Gold and Sunset was given to them by their masters when they were slaves.

Rongjin's original name was Sheng Guang, from Western Chu, and he was originally a dart master who relied on his craft to eat, but he became a slave because he offended the local nobles.

Sunset's original name was Yan Ju, from Wu Yue, a fisherman, when he was a child with his father fishing at sea, he was captured by pirates, the whole family was killed and only he survived, followed the pirate's side to endure humiliation and burden for 25 years, and when he grew up, he killed all the pirates on the ship, and was captured by the government after getting off the ship, and became a slave.

Either way, these two are also pathetic.

After following Chu Yujia, Chu Yujia also gave them the opportunity to return to their original names.

In this world, there is no longer slave molten gold and sunset, only the Marquis of Chu will be Sheng Guang and Yan Ju.

Originally, Chu Yujia did not have a guard, and Qi Zhong and Zuo Jinkai have always played these two positions.

But whether it is Qi Zhong or Zuo Jinkai, they all have their own positions in the army.

Zuo Jinkai led the Modao heavy armored cavalry, and Qi Zhong was the black guard battalion.

If the two of them had been by Chu Yujia's side, they would naturally have no time to take care of the army.

The appearance of Sheng Guang and Yan Ju also solved this problem.

Now, Chu Yujia also had the intention of testing the two of them, and took the two of them away from the Western Desert and went straight to Gumo Country.

For a long time, in Chu Yujia's cognition, if you want to fight, you must first know yourself and your opponent, if you don't even know what the other party is thinking, then what kind of battle is there?

I don't even know what the other party is, how can I win the battle?

If you go with the army, you can only look for death.

Now, if Ye wants to build a city on the grassland, it is necessary to plan the grassland into the territory of Ye State, so that Ye State and Gumo will completely border.

If Gu Moguo can still be silent about this, then even if he talks to the ghost, the ghost will not believe it.

But now they just haven't moved at all, which really makes people wonder what they want to do.

Chu Yujia has never been a conservative who advocates defense, and in such a situation, instead of waiting for the other party to take the initiative to attack, it is better to attack the opponent himself before he attacks.

After leaving Huma Pass, we went all the way north to the Tianshan Mountains, and walked west along the Tianshan Mountains.

The further west you go, the more desolate it becomes, and there are a few jungles and grasslands along the way, but when you reach the depths of the desert, it really becomes an endless desert.

The desolate desert stretched for hundreds of miles, and when he came here, Chu Yujia really understood why Chu Qianming had already led the Northwest Army to occupy the city of Gumo Kingdom, but he did not send troops to garrison it at all, but gave up the occupied land and withdrew to Shuiyun County after the peace talks.

The reason is the same, that is, because Shuiyun County is too far away from Gumo Country, and the middle is nearly thousands of miles apart, and the strategic supply cannot keep up at all.

Not to mention that there are hundreds of miles of desert, water and other things, all of which have to be transported from Shuiyun County, once the transportation goes wrong, the soldiers in front will fall into a passive situation of no water to drink and no food to eat.

But because of this, Chu Yujia became more determined to build a city on the grassland.

Because only when cities are established on the steppe and strong and secure logistics supply lines are set up for the army, they will turn from passive to active.

Once the city is completed and the Northwest Army has a foothold on the grassland, the threat of the Gumo Kingdom to the Ye State will be greatly halved, and even in the Northwest Army's safari tradition, they will become a mountain of gold and silver to be plundered by the Northwest Army, so that the Northwest Army will not be short of money, and there will be a better training object in addition to the grassland herdsmen.

Therefore, in any way, it is very necessary to build a city on the grassland.

After Chu Yujia returned from Shu, he began to send 100,000 labor slaves captured in Shu to the grassland, and under the organization and plan of Meng Feihang, he established a city like Humaguan in each of the two grasslands in the north and south.

But it is not so simple to build a city on the grassland, first of all, the stone on the grassland is not easy to find, so you can only go to the Tianshan Mountains to mine, and then transfer to the construction site, which takes a lot of time.

However, fortunately, the Northwest Army has Meng Feihang, a god man, and on the day Chu Yujia gave the order, he made a military order, and within two years, the two cities were completed.

With his words, Chu Yujia was relieved, so he handed over all the power to him, and he took Sheng Guang and Yan Ju to Gumo to find out the form of Gumo Kingdom......
