Yang Huai was a little relieved in his heart, the emperor's trust in him had surpassed that of the monarch and the minister, and he now carried two appointments in his arms. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info That is, the emperor appointed himself as the commander of the capital of Shu, and let himself be in charge of all the military horses of the Great Han Kingdom in Shu; The second was given to him by the Han National Secret Party, which was to let himself take over the appointment of the leader of the Shuzhong Secret Party.

Nowadays, among the personnel stationed in Shuzhong of the Han Kingdom, there are not only more than 5,000 soldiers and horses scattered and disguised into Shuzhong, but also individual talents who have entered Shuzhong in an open and honest manner.

Under their respective commands, these people disguised themselves as all kinds of people and lurked in Shu. Moreover, there are nearly 600 members of the secret party who have long infiltrated the Shu Kingdom, and these people are correctly guiding the generals and soldiers of the Great Han Kingdom, making all kinds of reactions and instigations at any time.

As a loyal member of the secret party, and as an active party member, Yang Huai naturally knew the role played by these six hundred secret party members, and the huge lethality that these people would exude if they acted in Shuzhong.

It is reported that since the beginning of last year, under the orders of the party organization, members of the secret party have naturally infiltrated all levels and levels of the Shu Kingdom, and in the past year or so, they have grown from dozens of people to hundreds of people today, which can be described as a huge harvest. Their intelligence can exert a power that should not be underestimated, Yang Huai has received a lot of news about the progress of the secret party in Shu along the way, and there is still something to be known urgently, the current control of the secret party in Shu, and the effect of the actions of the soldiers and horses infiltrated into Shu.

Now the more than 5,000 soldiers and horses who have entered Shuzhong, with their respective commanders and commands, are divided into more than a dozen teams, and they are not only fighting separately but also connecting with each other. The soldiers and horses under the control of Jiedu in various parts of Shuzhong, the prefectures and counties run by the assassin history, or the powerful destruction that is beneficial to the actions of the Great Han State.

Of course, the biggest gain at present is naturally the actions of the special operations forces of the Great Han State under the guidance of the secret party, who recklessly recruited soldiers and horses from various places and destroyed the combat effectiveness of the garrisons in various places. Another thing that made Yang Huai particularly interested was the co-optation of bandits and the comprehensive conquest of bandit cottages in the mountains.

These soldiers of the Green Battalion of the Great Han Kingdom are constantly transforming into the most feared special operations forces of this era. And Yang Huai decided to temporarily open up a base this time, because he could directly go to receive a cottage, which is a more famous bandit nest in Shu, Longtan Temple, and now it has been conquered and absorbed by the army of the Han Kingdom.

Yang Huai was very much looking forward to seeing the achievements of the army of the Great Han Kingdom, and looked at the ordinary-looking young man beside him, Yang Huai was very grateful. Because he was specially assigned by Emperor Liu Jixing to protect his tooth general Wang Lu, although he didn't know how good Wang Lu was, but the big and small troubles encountered along the way were basically solved by Wang Lu and others.

"General! Turning over this forest, the front should be the scope of Longtan Temple! Jin Shiqi, the guard on the side, looked at the sky, he was the descendant of the Shu people who fled to the Lingnan Han Kingdom in order to avoid disaster in the past, and he can speak fluent Shuzhong language, and he is also a talent deliberately selected by Yang Huai this time.

Although he left Shuzhong in infancy, Jin Shiqi was still very accustomed to it, and flexibly led everyone through on the second day after entering Shuzhong. He looked at the simple map that Yang Huai had drawn for him in his hand, and calmly analyzed: "But the weather is so hot, it has been raining for the past few days, it seems that there should be heavy rain soon, I don't know if we can get out of this place!" "There are mountains everywhere, and in the depths of the dense forest, it is rare for everyone to have a clear direction.

Of course, because of the particularity of entering Shu, everyone has no normal name, and according to the practice of cultivating talents in the military academy, they are simply named generals. This is especially important when fighting and marching in a foreign land. After all, Liu Jixing's plan was to get close to the territory of Shuzhong, or to invade in the name of the bandits of Chu.

"It's okay, the rain is just right to hide our whereabouts, and with the sky, we can rush to Longtan Temple and connect with Xiao Qilang who is stationed there!" Yang Huai breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Xiao Sinan who was three fingers wide and one finger thick and round in his hand, and felt a little relieved, it was a sharp weapon personally rewarded by the emperor and used as a marching guide, and Yang Huai never made a mistake along the way.

It is said that the emperor ordered the Zhangye Department to make it, and there is no such thing in the Central Plains at present, which belongs to the national treasure of the Han Kingdom. Liu Jixing once said that he would rather not be in the hands of the enemy than if the person was not there. Yang Huai knew the importance and power of this thing, and he felt extra glory and a heavy responsibility on his shoulders because the emperor rewarded him with this thing. He raised the knife wrapped in cloth in his hand, turned back to everyone and whispered: "Pass the order, rest for a while, replenish your energy, and then set off!" ”

Although resting, some soldiers still stand guard with their own responsibilities, which is an important part of Liu Jixing's art of war, and the reference is naturally the actions of the special forces in later generations. Compared with the spies of this era, there is still a big difference.

Now in a combat unit like Yang Huai's leadership, there are a lot of standing equipment for soldiers, a set of green military uniforms specially made by the Han Kingdom, of course, the colors sent by different countries are different. And the difference between the military uniform and later generations is that everyone in it added an extra vest. This vest is characterized by steel plates on the front chest and back to protect the heart, which is the main purpose of each of Liu Jixing's special forces in order to protect.

Each person is equipped with a refined crossbow and ten short arrows with a triangular blood groove steel head, which may be the strongest short-range weapon in this era. First of all, the power of the crossbow is stronger than the normal crossbow, and the mechanism has been improved by Liu Jixing himself, Yang Jiong and Shiwu around Liu Jixing have said that if they face these crossbows at close range, they can only rely on their profound internal force to fight hard, and there is no other way to avoid and dodge.

What surprised the two even more was that the kind of steel refined by Liu Jixing could not be refined by other countries at present, making the lethality of this kind of steel arrowhead have reached the most terrifying combat effectiveness of this era. Therefore, the weapon that every soldier is equipped with is as terrifying as someone having a submachine gun in the later rifle era.

Liu Jixing does not have the ability to let every soldier have a weapon as sharp as Yang Huai's horizontal knife, but the horizontal knife of the common weapon that each soldier is equipped with is also like the Japanese samurai sword in later generations, which is different from the horizontal knife of the Tang Dynasty. This knife is a standing weapon of every warrior and is used in peacetime combat against the enemy.

But every soldier of the special operation has a one-foot short-edged Han knife like a Kurkha scimitar in later generations, this kind of scimitar is made of real stainless steel, the most mechanical principle, and it is really the favorite thing of every special forces. Owning this scimitar in this era is equivalent to owning a treasure knife, and everyone loves it like life.

As for the standing medicines, the main ones are the medicinal materials that Liu Jixing personally asked his two wives, Mrs. Yi, the peacock princess Zheng Luna, and Mrs. Hejing, and Duan Suqin, the princess of Longchuan. It has also become a good medicine for soldiers to save their lives and first aid, because of its special role, it is also listed as one of the secrets of the Great Han Kingdom.

Of course, the special forces of the Great Han Kingdom were also the first troops to wear leather combat boots. In order to make the soldiers better fight outdoors, because there was no rubber available in this era, Liu Jixing had to use a large number of leather goods to make leather boots for the soldiers.

Therefore, the troops of the Great Han Kingdom will create miracles wherever they are. Yang Huai has the confidence to conquer Shuzhong for Liu Jixing, which is a profound truth. Although it is impossible for everyone to be equipped with this kind of weapon like special forces in the thousands of Han soldiers in Shu, it has been achieved that every level and generals above the rank of captain are equipped with this kind of weapon. Coupled with the fact that there are fifty special forces for every thousand fighters to fight together, it is really a terrifying force.

This team, with 47 people from Yang Huai, originally had 50 people in Fujian, but unfortunately, when they were on a mission in Fujian, they met several masters of the rivers and lakes and lost three comrades-in-arms in Fujian. In order to commemorate these three comrades-in-arms, Yang Huai has not made up the difference.

Sure enough, less than half an hour after everyone continued walking, it began to rain heavily, and it was a violent storm. However, the heavy rain brought coolness, and everyone's fatigue for a few days seemed to be swept away by the rain, which made everyone walk faster.

Because it won't be cold in this season, Yang Huai didn't let everyone stay, but constantly let the soldiers explore and guide in front. And the two sides are also scattered with soldiers to scout at any time, which means that there are eyeliners in all directions.

"Oh no, everyone, flash it!" In the exclamation of Jin Shiqi and a few soldiers who opened the road, I saw a few soldiers who opened the road in front and two soldiers patrolling on the right were running back quickly. This is a dense forest area in the high mountains, and there are basically no people, but seeing everyone's panic makes everyone alert.

"Everybody run to the left!" Jin Shiqi exclaimed undoubtedly, everyone quickly dodged to the huge stone wall on the side, everyone chose to fully believe in their comrades, and the reaction of the special forces soldiers was still fast. Dozens of people did not appear to be too flustered, almost one after another quickly climbed to the left side of the hillside under the stone wall, everyone after hard training and fighting, this kind of sudden incident will not be a problem, almost all of them almost rushed to the stone wall next to dozens of meters.

Everyone has not yet settled down, and then everyone sees a terrifying scene. The front of the woods and the hillside on the right side of the newly walked forest seem to be moving slowly. In the lightning and thunder, everyone really saw that the hillside on the right had undergone a strange change, and it was really moving slowly, moving down with the mountains and trees.

"Let's go, let's go!" Yang Huai shuddered, he had never seen such a thing, could it be that the mountain god appeared? He suddenly remembered something Liu Jixing had said to himself, and couldn't help but say almost with Jin Shiqi: "The mountain over there will soon collapse and turn into a mudslide, everyone will run to the stone wall and the hillside!" Fast! ”

Coax! The mountains shook for a while! The surrounding mountains seemed to be shaking, and the sky was getting dark. The whole earth seemed to be shaking, not only the mountain was about to collapse, Yang Huai understood in an instant.

I saw that the mountain on the right was slowly descending, flooding the entire forest, and the towering trees and boulders on the mountain slowly fell with the mud and rocks, blending into the mud and stones, and slowly buried the road from which they came.

Yang Huai is glad that the stone wall here is a whole mountain, and it is slope-shaped, otherwise he is afraid that these people will be buried here today. It was too terrifying for this natural power, grabbing a warrior who almost fell off the stone wall, the two of them clinged to the slope of the sloping stone wall, and Yang Huai was sweating in the rain.

Oh, my God! The entire hillside on the right has become a mudslide, which is collapsing at a speed visible to the naked eye, first the dwarf trees on the dirt slope, then the trees, and gradually sinking into the mudslide, and then the collapse of the towering trees. As the torrent flows downward, first a small piece of mountain, then a patch of forest and mountains.

It turns out that the mountain on the right side of the jungle is actually made of sand and gravel, and there are not many trees and shrubs on the mountain in normal times, and it may be that the continuous rain and infiltration during this period of time have made the whole mountain like mud and sand that has not solidified in later generations.

Presumably, this place was originally a large plain, which was constantly washed by rain, and it was only then that the woods under the high mountains were formed. And the last of the bare mountains finally could not withstand the vicissitudes of the sea, and in this last moment buried the low-lying woods.

Presumably, the main reason for the collapse of the mountain peak is not only the composition of the mountain. This place is also an area that often causes earthquakes in later generations, and the weather that has lasted for the past few days, and it has actually been earthquakes again, which directly led to the final collapse.

At the best time of day, it turns into an evening scene, and the sky is dark and feels like the end of the world. Seeing that the stone wall on this side was integrated, and the whole mountain was like a stone, Yang Huai felt a lot more at ease. But there was a loud rumbling noise, and the people lying on the stone wall felt terrified. It seems that this large rock mountain has also been greatly affected, and stones and debris are constantly falling.

For the first time, Yang Huai actually felt a feeling of helplessness, looking at the gloom around him, although these warriors were not as flustered as ordinary people, they were also desperately looking for a place to dodge. Countless mud and stones rolled down from above, and there were also large woods on the rocky mountain, which looked like a hat from a distance.

Because the stone mountain is the most stable place around, the soldiers desperately dodge to run and climb the stone mountain, fortunately the stone mountain is not erected vertically, but with a slope of sixty or seventy degrees, otherwise there is almost no possibility of survival today. At this time, the strength of the individual seems to be insignificant here, although everyone is a comrade-in-arms who lives and dies together, but there is only a place to seek peace.

Yang Huai was miserable in his heart, so he could only pray that everyone would be fine, and he also ran quickly up the mountain by taking advantage of the gap. I heard a few exclamations, and turned my head to see two warriors suddenly rolling down the stone slope. Yang Huai was too far away, even if he was afraid in front of him, he couldn't do anything, so he could only watch the two of them roll down.

Suddenly, I saw a person leaping like a rabbit and an eagle, and between several ups and downs, two people had been carried one after another, standing firmly on the stone slope, as if they had taken root under their feet. Everyone looked at it with a happy face, and it was indeed Yang Huai's shadow king road.

"Don't stop, everyone, run to the woods in the upper left!" Wang Lu said in a deep voice, he could see it very clearly, not to mention that his skills were much stronger than these people, how could these people dare to question it. And Wang Lu grabbed two somewhat embarrassed warriors, like an eagle in a storm, and his feet were scattered on the sloping stone wall, and the people kept rising into the air, and they were speeding up all the way up like a flat road. After a few breaths, he disappeared in front of him, leaning towards the woods on the rocky slope, Yang Huai was a little shocked and relieved.

This is the master of the rivers and lakes, Yang Huai was a little envious in his heart, although he entered the military academy and learned a lot of fighting and fighting skills. Even Yang Huai was born with divine power, and many masters on the rivers and lakes felt inferior to him, and later Liu Jixing personally taught him the cultivation of the inner family, and he was already much stronger than ordinary generals. But at this moment, seeing Wang Lu's unpredictable skills, he can only sigh.

The torrential rain continued, and the sky was dark, and it was a quarter of an hour before the shaking of the earth and the feeling of lightning and thunder slowly ceased. Slowly, the sky also opened, but it still looked a little gray, and the dark clouds in the sky did not seem to have dispersed.

At this moment, the woods on the right that everyone crossed when they came are gone, and they are completely covered by mudslides. The mud and trees were still moving slowly, and the flowing water gathered in all directions made it look as if it was still shaking.

The deep forest that everyone had to cross before was gone, and they were all submerged in the mud and stone mountains, and even the two mountains that were originally in front of them were suddenly gone. The mountain on the right, deformed under the influence of the collapse of the mountain on the right, and the impact of the earthquake just now, actually collapsed entirely, and most of it fell on the mountain on the left, as if it merged with the peak on the right. It makes people shudder, if they had just been walking, these people would have been buried under the mountain.

The rain was already light, but it was still falling. Yang Huai finally gathered the people, but fortunately, the whole team was still there. It's just that two fighters were hit in the head by flying stones, one injured his leg, and several others were injured to varying degrees. Everyone shouted "Lucky", looking at the damage of the mountain on the right, they were all a little afraid.

Soon, everyone found a problem, looking at the mudslide that was still surging in front of them, that is, there was no road for the time being. At this time, everyone's safety is still in a relatively unstable guarantee, Yang Huai had to let everyone find a place first, and avoid the limelight for the time being.

Under an open stone wall, Yang Huai opened another map that he had copied, and looked at the distance on the map, his brows furrowed. This map between regions is a detailed calculation sent by the Han State Secret Party according to the predetermined route to be taken, and it is available in every mountain village. It seems that the front is no more than fifty miles, it should be Longtan Temple, if you follow the speed of everyone's normal rapid march, that is, less than two hours.

For today's rendezvous and plan, Yang Huai has led people to rush for four or five days, but now he unexpectedly wants to intercept here, which really makes Yang Huai very anxious. Looking at the rain flowers floating in the sky and the mudslide that was still moving slowly, Yang Huai's face was even more difficult to look at.

Longtan Temple!

Nowadays, there is neither a temple nor a dragon pond, but only a slowly flowing river.

It now refers to a place name, a stockade inhabited by barbarians in the past, a cottage built entirely of stones. In front is the Qingxi River, and behind is the Golden Buddha Mountain, which is really close to the mountains and rivers. The entire cottage is built on top of each other, but the surrounding area is a building with stone walls, which can be said to be a solid natural city.

The cottage was originally inhabited by barbarians, but later it was constantly oppressed by the government, coupled with the appearance of bandits, so that the barbarians disappeared. In the past few decades, this place can be said to be a cottage when there are bandits, and an empty city without bandits. In the past ten years, a litter of people has suddenly poured in, and there are usually four or five hundred people living there, which is really a big place to go.

It originally belonged to the rule of Yuzhou, very close to Yuzhou, and is a tributary of the Yangtze River, and this location is also relatively special. Jinfo Mountain is also the boundary between Shuzhong and Qiqi, so there is usually nothing to do here, and there is also a team of dozens of people to live. Later, because the Golden Buddha Mountain was a wild place, fierce beasts often appeared here, and the local government did not allow the existence of bandits, and gradually the team disappeared.

Especially in the hands of the current emperor Meng Chang, there were still people living in Taiping in the early stage, and later the government was corrupt and oppressed, and no one around came to this ravine, unless it was a ship passing on the road of Qingxi, or some caravans could not pass through.

I don't know when, there are hundreds of bandits and bandits gathered here, led by three self-proclaimed righteous brothers, known as Longtan Sanjiao, who have a few tricks under them, and repelled several groups of government suppression. Later, the fame grew, and the government also suffered a few secret losses, and when they saw that they did not toss the big storms, they also turned a blind eye. It's also a shame that they are only called Sanjiao, and they are not so proud that they are called dragons, otherwise they would have been swept away by the heavy troops sent by the Shu government.

However, these three people also have some means and knowledge, and they usually occasionally use the passing merchant ships, but if they pay the toll, they will be allowed to pass. The most important solo action is sometimes to shoot at the surrounding rich people.

Often the characters within a hundred miles know about the existence of this group of characters, and by the time the government wants to do something to them, there are already more than a thousand people. And the surrounding two states and counties, usually when there are few people in Longtan Temple, they can also be more powerful, but now there are more people in Longtan Temple, and their little strength does not dare to do anything to Longtan Temple alone, but it makes more and more people under the three people, and the power is getting bigger and bigger.

Today, the flags are flying around the Longtan Temple, and in the cottage Juyi Hall, which is called the Longtan Temple by the Longtan Sanjiao, the leaders at all levels are full of people.

Longtan Sanjiao was sitting on the right hand of the head of the Juyi Hall at this time, and in his left hand at this time there was actually a young man with a calm attitude, he looked majestic and extraordinary, and he looked only thirty years old. An ordinary linen suit can't hide the leanness and majesty of the whole body. There was also a young man standing beside him, but this young man seemed to have his eyes closed, and he stood beside him with his hands in his hands, ignoring everyone, but just standing like that, it gave people the impression that no one should approach.

It is really strange that the owner of Longtan Temple sat in the guest seat, while a stranger sat in the main seat instead. Longtan Sanjiao didn't feel uncomfortable at all, but looked at the young man sitting on the left hand in the hall with a smile, and there was a large group of leaders in the hall under Ren Tang.

"Brother Xiao, when will our reinforcements arrive, look at the brothers who have reported now, they have entered Longtan Temple in three ways, and they want to finish our Longtan Temple at one time!" Jiao Shijia, the old man of Longtan Sanjiao, couldn't wait to open his mouth and salute the young man in his left hand.

The young man on the left hand had a calm face, looked at the leader of the lower hall, then looked at the three brothers, and then said in a deep voice: "It must arrive today, otherwise a certain family will not let Mr. Sun go to take the head of the commander!" Brothers, don't be impatient, and arrange them one by one, and the brothers will strictly guard all dangers. Even if there is a vicious war, it must be inevitable, everyone is ready, as long as the reinforcements arrive, the time has come for us to unify the place! ”

"Brothers, they will definitely not be afraid, but the one who led the army this time is said to be the subordinate of Zhao Lang, the defense envoy of Yuzhou, this person's name is Wang Xun, and he is Zhao Lang's direct commander." Li Yuan, the boss of Longtan Sanjiao, said cautiously: "When a certain family served in the Shu army in the past, I heard the name of this person, and he is really a rare wise general in the Shu army!" ”

The young man on the left glanced at the young man standing beside him, and the young man standing with his hands in his hands glanced at Sanjiao, and said lightly: "The Ma Bujun of a certain family hunted this time commanded Zhou Qi, and he is indeed the first general under Zhao Lang, but a certain family has its own appearance." On the contrary, it is Wang Xun who may really be a talent in the Yuzhou army! ”

The young man who was standing didn't wait for others to speak, and then said: "And a certain family has been an arrow away from him, and then a certain family lurked back, only to know that this person is actually the first gate in Shuzhong, the disciple of the Hell Gate!" He saw that the young man sitting frowned, as if he knew what he was thinking, and said: "Although the Hell Gate will send disciples into the world every three years, but this person has been in the army for many years, and most of them are the disciples of the elders of the Hell Gate Outer Gate, even if it is a core disciple, there is a certain family and the backer behind him to help Qilang, Qilang does not need to worry!" ”

This sitting young man is Xiao Qilang, who Yang Huai is going to rush to connect, he listened to the young man next to him, quickly stood up, and said to the leaders of the hall: "Brothers, listen to a certain family for the time being!" Everyone quieted down, and they all looked over here and waited for Xiao Qilang's arrangement.

"Rush! Come on! He waved the flagpole in his hand vigorously and roared with excitement on his face. The man rushed ahead first. The flagpole was the thickness of the upper arm of a child's hand, and the head of the gun also had a spear head. The head of this spear is diamond-shaped, and it is also five feet long, although it is not the kind of sharp spear head with a sharp blade, but at this moment it is like a sharp weapon in his hands.

Wherever the gun was pointed, the body burst and split, and blood splattered everywhere. How can the oncoming crowd dodge for a while, and the one who touches it will die immediately. The crowd that was hiding separately was even more overwhelming and pushed away many companions and comrades-in-arms, and everyone watched the flagpole in the hands of this killing god being harvested.

The blood flag is fierce, and the bloody wind is blowing. The thick arm shook, and the blood-stained flag was rolled up on the flagpole by him, like a blood-red thick stick with an adult arm. Fighting, picking, stabbing, splitting, sweeping, for a while, it was like a ghost crying wolf, facing either death or serious injury.
