Huangsha Pass is far less famous than Pingyang Pass, Qianli Pass, Baisheng Pass and Xiongge Pass, but it is the northernmost Guancheng at Dazheng. Guancheng, built with loess based on local materials, stands on the waist of Company Mountain, like a powerful fist blocking the road to the south of the nomadic peoples.

Hu Jianzheng, the Huangsha Pass, stood on the checkpoint in military uniform and looked north. The yellow sand was long and there was no sight at all. The caravans far away were like winding thin lines, heading north and south, stepping out a business road in the Yellow Sha Gobi.

Lord Chen, who was on a mission to Beimo yesterday, came back and brought back the good news that the second prince of Beimo came to pass through the pass in July to propose marriage. Hu Jian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this big battle could not be fought. Although he was not afraid of war when he was a soldier, it was always a good thing to not die.

Hu Jianzheng's hand was stroking his hands from his ribs. Six years ago, the ribs there were cut off by the sharp blade of the Beimo Wolf Rider. In his dream, he would still remember the battle. The arrows flew like locusts and flesh and blood. The flashing sword shadow of the cold light would still wake him up from the dream, sweating in cold sweat, and his wounds were aching.

The general died in hundreds of battles, and the soldiers relied on bloodshed for merit. Many of the robes that fought together had turned into white bones in the yellow sand outside the city. The cold wind slid through the empty white bones, making strange roars, like weeping and complaining, and the most broken heart.

Hu Jianzheng slapped his hand hard on the loess in the merceration. The rough feeling showed heavyness, making Hu Jianzheng's heart feel as friendly as when he was cultivating in the farmland, his parents looked at him with a smile.

The city wall had just been added at the beginning of the year, and the stents were also raised. A foot of blue brick was laid on the top of the city wall. The loess poured with glutinous soup would be cut with a knife and left a shallow mark. It was very solid. Hu Jian's eyes were looking at the north became cold. If the Hu cavalry dared to come, they would definitely make them suffer.

"General, drink water", a young soldier handed over the water bag. The thin hair on his lips was tender, and he was not as young as 20 years old and became a soldier to eat food. In a blink of an eye, he had been around for almost twenty years.

"Yi Zi, where are you from?" Hu Jianzheng took a sip of water and handed the water bag back to the soldier.

"General, you and I are from Huazhou. You should call me Ahu." Xiaobing replied with a smile, his agile eyebrows and eyes were clever.

Ah Hu and Hu Jian were just thinking of his son at home. His wife wrote to him that this kid was good at studying and had passed the county examination. Xu Xunshun of the county school praised him for his intelligence and was a seed of study.

Joy flashed in Hu Jianzheng's eyes, and a contradictory thought flashed in his heart. Perhaps he could fight a war with the north and make some military achievements. He, the deputy lieutenant of the sixth rank, could be promoted to a regular, or even promoted to a guerrilla general. After two years of joining the army for twenty years, he could be transferred to the local area to become a state Sima and spend a few days with his family.

The wind blew the flags and the flags were roaring violently. Hu Jianzheng's eyes swept across the soldiers, all of which were good men. He had 2,000 soldiers under his command, and in February, Anbei Protectorate sent another thousand new recruits, and Ahu was this group of new recruits.

At Huangsha Pass under the guarding of three thousand horses, Hu Jian recalled the letter written by his son in his mind. There were four words in it that were very solid. What those who have read books said were good.

"General, look at it."

A roar broke Hu Jianzheng's reverie. Hu Jianzheng looked north with his eyes closed, and the smoke and dust soared into the sky from afar, condensing but not dissipating. Hu Qi came.

"Call the roar, close the door, ignite the beacon fire." Hu Jianzheng ordered loudly, and a grin flashed from the corner of his mouth. It's time for me, Old Hu, to be promoted.

Ah Hu was shocked and pushed aside. Hu Jian strode towards the arrow tower and ordered a veteran beside him: "Shi Dabang, look at this kid and don't let others be injured by arrows."

The sad horn sounded at the yellow sand junction. The Hongsong City Gate, about a foot thick, closed heavily. Thousand pounds fell down. The dust rinsed on the soldiers at the city gate. No one was in the mood to slap them.

Panic spread inside the pass. After a while, the official road heading south was filled with various vehicles, and people carrying various baggages continued to merge into the torrent of the south. The war was coming.

The initial panic passed on above the city wall, and the sound of soldiers running and shouting became tense and orderly. Bows, arrows, rolling wood, rocks and other cities were pushed to the top of the city. The beacon had been lit, and straight wolf smoke was conveyed all the way, sending messages to the Anbei Protectorate 200 miles away, where 60,000 elite soldiers were stationed.

As long as you persist until tomorrow afternoon, reinforcements will arrive.

The smoke and dust gradually approached, and the brown leather armor on Hu Qi's body deepened the color of the yellow sand. Hu Jian was squinting his eyes and trying to distinguish the pattern on the flag. It was a bear. He felt a little lighter in his heart, not a wolf head, which means that it was not the Beimo Royal Court, but the tribe under the Royal Court. In comparison, the wolf head army that was not as powerful as the Wangting.

The deputy of the town, Lu Guangzong, was obviously relieved, spitted at the city, and smiled and said, "Is the bear head, is it the Ashi division or the bull head of the Hun branch? General Hun, this is giving us military achievements. Take out the 100,000 new arrows in the warehouse to use it. The court has invested a lot this time, so we have to make the men of the Ministry of War."

The relaxed attitude of the guards infected the soldiers around them. The veteran boasted about his military achievements to Xinding. Shi Dadao said to Ah Hu: "Let me learn from me later, stick to the merceration, and don't let the Hu people's arrows shoot. Do whatever I ask you to do."

Ahu's face was a little pale and he smiled forcefully, "Brother, look at me, why are my legs trembling a little and not obedient?"

The gravel on the ground trembled with the sound of horse hooves. A lizard fled in panic, but still could not escape the fate of being stepped into meat paste. Tens of thousands of iron hooves were not only smoke and dust, but also shocking people's hearts.
