Chapter 23 The thief's heart is hard to die
He Chen decided to rectify in Dengjia Village for the time being and let the soldiers have a good rest. At the same time, he sent Deng Zhi to take a few vigorous clans, together with Hou Zhi into more than ten teams, and went out to inquire about the news from all directions. Among them, Deng Zhi had a clan named Deng Long who aroused He Chen's interest. I don't know if he was cut down by Gan Ning later? Deng Long's powerful Kong Wu is powerful, and a fork in his hand is extraordinary. The three or five men are not his opponents. He Chen intends to take him as a subordinate. It's no problem to be a team leader or something, but this guy is very happy.
At this time, the sky is bright, the sun is shining in the sky, and the fog has long been blown away, revealing the green mountains, lush mountains and forests, and the fresh air of mixed vegetation. From time to time, the charming fragrance of flowers floats, which makes people energetic and relaxed and happy.
The small village is in full swing. After a few days of wet weather, some weapons have become rusted and passivation. Dozens of soldiers seize the time to polish at the door of the village to make it sharpen. The women in the village also came out to help mend the broken leather nails one by one.
On the hillside of the distant mountain, Dian Wei, who was idle and panicked, was carrying an iron halberd to drive away beasts all over the mountain. From time to time, there was a refreshing laughter, which was obvious that there was a great harvest.
He Chen sat under a big locust tree in the village household registration and was quietly distracted.
The trunk of the locust tree is thick and luxuriant, and it takes two people to hold it together. It is said that when Deng Zhizu moved up, he stood here. After hundreds of years of wind and frost, he was still upright and tenacious. Countless branches stretched out in the air, and countless leaves sprouted with green buds. From time to time, birds flew over the sky, singing gently, and even a cheerful bird sprinkled a piece of shit and fell on He Chen's armor. He was completely unconscious.
He Chen has a headache now. The plan can't keep up with the rapid changes. The retreat he had previously discussed with Xun You and Tian Feng is not needed at all. Where are you going? Where is the way out? For this matter, He Chen was very nerve-wracking. He didn't know how many cells had died, but he still had no clue.
At this moment, He Chen only hopes that Deng Zhi, who went out to explore the way, can bring some good news.
But unfortunately, first came a bad news about Yan Ming and Yu Shi. The two generals drove horses along the official road all the way, and then were stopped by Xu Rong's checkpoint. They fought to break out of the siege. Yan Ming's whereabouts were unknown, and Yu was seriously injured and taken captive. Hundreds of soldiers were killed or injured. Then it was rumored that Wenpin came out of the Luyuan Pass. He Mandang Tianzhen won three games in a row, and the left wing of Xu Rong, who was killed, collapsed. Because of the support of the Chinese army later, Wenpin and He Man persisted for two days, and had no endowed soldiers and could only retreat to the natural danger of the Luyuan Pass.
Just when He Chen was depressed, bad news came one after another. Dong Zhuo had sent General Guo Yan to lead the troops on the way back to Kyoto. Yang Ding, the governor of Mianchi, poured out and rushed straight to Yongning, trying to build an iron net on the road from Luoyang to Luyuanguan, all of which were blocked.
Deng Zhi didn't come back until the next afternoon and brought a big news.
Under the tiger prison, the coalition was defeated and retreated for 50 miles. Lv Bu repeatedly beheaded Fang Yue and Mu Shun, famous generals in Guandong, Hebei Province, injured Wu'an, and defeated Gongsun Zan. If it hadn't been for the three generals Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who had not defeated Lv Bu, he was afraid that the coalition would have been defeated in a battle. After that, Dong Zhuo listened to Li Ru's words, closed the door, strictly guarded to the death, consumed the enemy's grain, slacked his military heart, and prepared to fight a protracted war.
After hearing the news, He Chen was very excited. Lv Bu was defeated, and Dong Zhuo soon began to move to Chang'an. At that time, his encirclement must be removed. However, before He Chen was happy for a long time, Deng Zhi threw another blockbuster and said, "Master, on the way back, I found that many Dong Zhuo soldiers were searching along the mountain..."
"It's not good. At least thousands of Dong Zhuo soldiers have entered the mountain from the south." Before Deng Zhi finished his words, Deng Long jumped from the mountainside path and shouted from afar, with great dexterity.
Everyone's face changed greatly, and Deng Zhi jumped hurriedly and said, "Dengjia Village is located in the corner of the mountains. The location is extremely hidden. There are few people at ordinary times. It must be that the general accidentally exposed his whereabouts when he came. You should know that the Xiliang cavalry can fight well, and it is because of the contact with Zhu Rong all the year round. He knows the surname of the horse Xi very well. It can be called a master of tracking. The general should lead the troops out of here as soon as possible, and it will be dangerous at night.
At this time, He Chen calmed down and said, "How about Bo Miao's opinion now?"
Deng Zhi calmly analyzed: "This road in the southwest is exactly the direction of the enemy. Let it go. Niujiawan in the southeast is an important town of soldiers through Sanmenxia. The mountain is Kaohsiung, and there is only a sheep intestine path. During this period, the camp is high, and the Tucheng tiles are piled all over the ground to avoid it. Now only Qingping Peak still has a glimmer of vitality. The general hides in the deep mountains. When the wind dissipates, all the roads retreat from the army can he go out of the mountain.
Qingping Mountain? At the foot of the mountain? Zhang Jibing? Cang? Cang? He Chen's eyes suddenly burned with a dazzling light, and a rush to the sky went straight to the sky, and a bold and crazy idea slowly appeared in his mind.
Deng Zhi was shocked by He Chen's ferocious and horrible expression and took several steps back.
He Chen withdrew his look and said in a low voice, "Zhang Liao, Xu Huang obeys the order."
"Oh." The two generals responded loudly.
"Reorganize the army immediately and leave for Qingping Peak in half an hour." He Chen's face was cold.
"It's order." The two generals did not hesitate to withdraw their orders.
Watching the two people strode away, He Chen turned around and said worriedly, "If our army leaves, what about your people?"
Deng Zhi smiled proudly, and his face was a little mysterious: "Now the soldiers are in a panic, and there must be a way to defend themselves. The village has already dug up a secret cellar. After Dong Zhuojun searched, he will disperse by himself. At that time, the subordinates will move to Nanyang and return to their hometown.
He Chen then smiled and said, "It's so good."
At this time, Deng Long trotted all the way here, with a little sweat on his face.
He Chen asked, "Zhiang Fei, do you still remember to enter Qingpingfeng Mountain Road?"
Deng Long was obviously stunned and gasped. He was extremely surprised and said, "Do you want to go to Qingpingfeng?" This mountain road is hard to find, the birds are extinct, and there is a poisonous pool of miasma. If you are not careful, the corpses will be destroyed and people will be killed. Has the lord figured it out?
He Chen didn't think about it, and said resolutely, "Don't ask more questions. Just lead the way."
Deng Long looked at He Chen's resolute and unquestionable expression. Suo's surname also turned his heart and secretly thought that he had succeeded in taking it in detail. He sought wealth and noble in danger. The lord and noble were not afraid of the state and herdsmen at all. What were he afraid of?
"The lord, wait for a moment, and my subordinates need to prepare something." Deng Long said.
He Chen nodded and said, "Fer up."
Qingping Peak, which is the remnants of Xiong'er Mountain, is surrounded by mountains. It is thousands of meters above sea level, and there is an Yi water flowing over on one side. Qingping Peak is completely different from the surrounding mountains. Zhong Xiu's aura is full of red mountain soil in the ash, which is full of black vegetation, showing the twilight and a dead gas.
Under the leadership of Deng Long, on a sheep intestine path that is almost not a mountain road, one side is a knife-like cliff, the other side is the Wanda abyss, and the feet are wet soil. The weeds and dead leaves are piled up a foot high. Every time they step on the feeling of deep depression, He Chen and the soldiers are cautious and afraid of poisonous python snakes. Or a swamp. There was a strong smell of corpse rot around, which made everyone dizzy and nauseous and vomiting.
Fortunately, Deng Long prepared some medicine, wine and insect medicine, or smelled or sprinkled, before asking the soldiers to reply.
He Chen has a strange feeling. This smell is very much like sulfur. Is this mountain a mine?
A huge bushing bush appeared in front of him, without exception, full of black vegetation, which made He Chen very strange.
This is Deng Long who stopped, with a solemn face and a lingering lingering heart. He turned around and said to He Chen carefully, "Your lord, this is a poisonous forest. The snakes, insects and centipedes are huge inside, and the poisonous surnames are extremely strong. When I was young, the three of my subordinates crossed this peak, and one of them lost his life."
He Chen nodded seriously and said, "Can you get around here?"
Deng Long said with a wry smile, "The right side is a deep ditch, and if you fall down, you will be crushed. The left side of the mountain wall is straight and steep. Unless there is a hanging rope on the top of the mountain, there is no other way to do it.
He Chen looked up at the smooth stone wall on the side, turned back to Zhang Liao and said, "Go down the order, be more careful."
I don't know whether He Chen's pig horn halo is invincible or lucky. He was safe all the way. Just as He Chen doubted whether he was a lucky star, Deng Long wiped a cold sweat and said, "Fortunately, this is the day of thirty years. The snakes and insects have not come out of the hole, otherwise it will be troublesome."
He Chen Muran, it turned out to be in vain.
Just as everyone was relieved, there was a sudden sound of sadness and arrogance in front of them, like crying blood, ringing through the roar of wolves in the mountains and forests.
Almost at the same time, the endless wolves roared one after another, echoing each other.
Deng Long's face turned pale in an instant. He retreated two steps in a row and almost bumped into He Chen. Then he screamed, "No, this is a group of silver wolves."
He Chen said curiously, "Is there anything special about this wolf? Otherwise, even if the wolves are in groups, they will not be the opponents of my brave soldiers.
"The lord doesn't know that silver wolves are usually rare, and the number is not huge, but the terrible thing is that the wolf group has a very high IQ. Three or four ordinary silver wolves can surround an adult tiger to death, which is what the old man in the village saw with his own eyes. It is said that in each silver wolf, there is a wolf, leading the whole wolf, for the roaring moon silver wolf. This wolf is tall, as strong as a calf, its claws are like a blade, its whole body is silver and white, its pearls are as red as blood, and it steps like the wind. It travels thousands of miles. It is as powerful as a tiger and a lion, and it dominates the mountains and forests.
A strange feeling suddenly appeared in He Chen's mind. At this time, he felt like a series of heroes exploring the secret holy land and harvesting beast mounts. Silver wolf = scale armor war wolf? He Chen drew a big equal sign + question mark in his mind.
If the system really has such a setting in this world...
He Chen's eyes suddenly burst into hot and greedy eyes, which could almost melt the whole mountain peak.
PS: Thank you, Serb little fish. Under the moon, there is no wind and no seal. Brother, don't urge me to update the ticket, 5 tickets? I poke, and the toad can't vomit blood.
