Chapter forty-three(1/2)

The snowy plateau is not something you can go just by wanting to. It is said that after going up, it is impossible to breathe even after you go up, let alone marching and fighting.

What Qian Chonghou really wanted to go to was the Ferry. It was not as high as the snowy plateau, and it was not far or near to the Tubo tribe. As long as the Tubo army did not invade the west, there was no need to fight against Tubo.

There is no need to worry about being chased by the robes of the past. After all, Yele Town has only a few soldiers. It is already very difficult to defend Yele. He dare not easily use troops to the southeast, otherwise it would easily anger Tubo.

Moreover, the area of ​​Yandu is very large, and because the land is barren, there are very few people, and mainly some Qiang people, it should not be difficult to find an oasis with little people.

Not only did he let the 138 brothers who ran away with him put on armor and weapons, but he even brought pots, pans, plows, hoes and other farm tools, but he even brought dozens of bags of various seeds.

One man and three horses should have walked very quickly.

But because I brought too many things, I walked very slowly like a big move.

But it doesn't matter. General An is inspecting the prison state, General Li is far away in Baisha City, and most of the night watchmen left with Han Shimei. The brothers in the military city are loyal enough, so there is no need to worry about being chased.

Just as he was thinking about why Yando came to live with a group of brothers, Liu Sangen, who was exploring the way forward, suddenly stopped.

"Brother..."

"What's wrong?"

"Someone!"

"Where is it?" Qian Chonghou tied the reins and subconsciously looked behind him.

"There is the person ahead!"

Liu Sangen drew out the knife suddenly, his face ferociously.

Qian Chonghou's heart skipped a beat. He was about to let his subordinates extinguish the torches, but a bonfire rose up about 150 steps in front of him.

Immediately afterwards, torches were lit one by one, and the ignition light continued to spread to both sides like the legendary two-headed snake.

“There are people on the east.”

“There are also in the west!”

"Qian Shuai, I ambushed!"

The soldiers panicked, and the already chaotic team was in chaos.

Liu Sangen knew that he had to hold his position quickly. While riding his horse back, he roared with his horizontal sword: "Line up and prepare to face the enemy!"

A team leader reacted and quickly swung his knife to cut off the package tied to the horse's back, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Zhang Si, Yu San, let's guard the west!"

"We guard the east side, Ding Er, why are we panic? We threw away all the useless pieces.

"Lao Liu, come with me and prepare to fight!

It's too dark and there are too many horses.

These soldiers are usually busy farming and farming. They are not as well-trained as You Yi Team, and they cannot be compared with the battle-prone night watch team. Although several team leaders have already reacted very quickly, it is not easy to set up a formation in a hurry.

This way, an old man in his fifties was anxious and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Liu Sangen, don't shout, damn it, hurry up and protect Qian Shuai!"

"Yes, escort Qian Shuai away first!"

"Qian Shuai, leave quickly, it's too late to go. We will kill you with the help of our palace!"

Qian Chonghou looked at the torch circle slowly surrounding it, held the long knife tightly and said solemnly: "Thank you, I won't leave everyone behind to survive. Besides, where can I go now?"

"Qian Shuai..."

"I can't leave."

Liu Sangen rode his horse back, turned his head again, and gritted his teeth in the direction of the military city: "There is a fire on the top of the city, there must be someone behind it. It's a damn broken our way!"

A team leader cursed hatefully: "Damn, where are so many soldiers coming out?"

Liu Sangen wiped his sweat and said, "I'll know later."

Seeing that the people surrounding him were not walking fast, Qian Chonghou grabbed the head of the team that had just ordered to shoot the arrow: "Don't act rashly first, wait until we can see who they are."

...

From the headache to the six miles of military city, this distance is not far and not close.

When Han Ping'an accompanied An Fuyan and others to the Gobi Desert about a mile south of the military city, he found that the people who had left the city privately were surrounded. Looking around, the night sky was full of fire.

An Fuyan couldn't help but ask: "Han Shiyu, where did so many soldiers come from?"

Han Shimei was about to speak when a You Yi man rushed from the front and tied the reins and shouted: "Report to General, Cui Ming's mansion asked Bei Jue to report, General Wang, deputy envoy of Guishu Town, is waiting for the General!"

It turned out to be a soldier who was moved from Guishu...

An Fuyan finally understood why Han Shimei dared to seize military power and asked coldly: "How many soldiers will General Wang bring?"

"Report to the general, General Wang brought five hundred elite soldiers. Envoy Lin also came, and there were two hundred personal guards on the envoy."

"Lin Zhongcheng is here, where is Lin Zhongcheng?"

"Envoy Lin stationed in the city and ordered the general and Han Shiyu to visit him again after he rebelled."

I'm so worried about anything I'm afraid of.

An Fuyan looked back at Han Shimei, and said with a gloomy face: "Lead ahead."

"promise!"

You Yiren turned his horse's head and led everyone straight to the handsome flag that was vaguely visible in the distance.

Li Chengye never expected that he would alarm the governor. He was up and down, not to mention how nervous he was.

When he arrived at Shuai's banner, he saw that it was Wang Qingxiang, the deputy envoy of Guishu Town, the General of the Central Guard of Zuo Xiaowei. Cui Han was riding on a horse and guarding Wang Qingxiang.

Now is not the time for greetings, An Fuyan came up and asked, "General Wang, how can you please help me with this betrayal?"

Wang Qingxiang bowed his hand and then looked at the rebels in front of him with a expressionless face: "The leader's surname is Qian, named Qian Chonghou. Cui Zongjun said that this person is not a serious crime and is loyal to General Li. The last general wants to ask General Li to persuade him to see if they can make them lose their way."

"The leader is Qian Chonghou... it's impossible!"

"General Li, you can see if it's Qian Chonghou."

"Okay, I'll go and have a look."

Li Chengye was anxious and didn't even bother to call An Fuyan, so he waved his whip and whipped it hard, and rode his horse out of the formation.

When I went up to see it, my heart was so cold that it was Qian Chonghou.

"General Li!"

"Why is General Li coming? Isn't General Li in Baisha City?"

The dozen or so old men who were about to shoot the arrow were stunned and couldn't help but put down their bows and arrows.

Qian Chonghou also didn't expect Li Chengye to come, so he kicked the horse off the belly and slowly met him.

When he walked up to him, he saw Li Chengye wearing thin scales and a big red cloak as usual, but he had no weapons in his hand, and he stared at him with a murderous look.

"Qian Chonghou, what do you want to do? Do you want to rebel?"

Li Chengye roared sternly, but his heart was like a knife.

Qian Chonghou looked behind him as if he hadn't heard it. He was too far away to see clearly. When he walked here, he finally saw clearly who the ambush was.

I can't rush out, and I can't hold on.

If the fight really starts, the Hu cavalry who came from Guishu will never show mercy.

Thinking of dying here tonight, Qian Chonghou couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It turned out to be a soldier brought from Guishu. What kind of virtue is Qian Chonghou, and I, who can actually alarm the governor."

"Stop talking nonsense, let me answer my words first, do you want to rebel?"

"General, if I want to rebel, I will not lead my brothers south."

"Then where are you taking my soldiers?"

“Find a way out.”

Li Chengye asked, "Can you find a way to survive? I, Li Chengye, treat you well, why do you do this?"

Qian Chonghou said with neither humility nor arrogant words: "It has come to this point, why did the general ask questions clearly?"

Li Chengye was furious and roared, "I don't know!"

"The general knows, the general knows, and Han Shiyu knows, and the thousands of brothers in the military city know! He knows it clearly, why do he pretend not to know?"

Qian Chonghou pointed at him and the generals behind him and asked, his sad voice echoing in the night sky.

Li Chengye was stopped and didn't know how to continue.

An Fuyan frowned and thoughtful.

Han Shimei looked at Qian Chonghou, who was justified in rebellion, and murmured to himself: "I know too, what do I know?"

Han Ping'an followed them all the time. Seeing that his father really didn't know, he couldn't help but sigh: "I've given less money, I feel wronged, my beliefs collapsed, and I missed home, but no matter how much I think about it, I can't go back."

Han Shimei was slightly stunned and turned around and asked, "What does it have to do with us no matter how wronged he feels, why did he collude with Cao Du and his son and his life?"

"Dad, it's you, not me."

"Bad boy, if Dad dies, can you have a good life?"

"I'm telling the truth."
