Chapter 467: The Battle of Tianjing (2)

Gao Chengde hurried back to his home, and was relieved to see that his elderly mother was safe and sound. He was originally a resident of the city, and he lived by hunting on weekdays, although this was a moat pass, but in fact it was just about the same as other towns.

He hurried home from the street, still carrying the blood that had not been completely erased from the street, and rushed back, but his heart was in his throat. He saw with his own eyes that the officers and soldiers defending the city had all separated their heads and bodies in a single day, and the blood splattered the entire street red. Fortunately, there was a spring rain two days ago, and it was also thanks to that spring rain that washed away the blood stains on this street. But the spring rain washed away the bloodstains, but could not disperse the bloody breath that permeated the street, standing on the street, from time to time there would be a stream of bloody breath straight to the nostrils, disgusting.

"Chengde, you're back, hurry up and eat something, now this Tianjing Pass is full of Northern Han soldiers, he has to be careful. Don't be arrested by the Northern Han soldiers as a spy of the Great Zhou. For my mother, I have been worried about it for the past few days, and I am afraid that you will have a case. If something happens to you, how can you let your mother live? An old woman with silver hair saw that this young and strong man was quickly admitted to the hospital, and she couldn't help but command.

"Mother, it's okay, Chengde will be careful. By the way, did Xiao Lao eat it, or let him eat it together. Gao Chengde replied while holding the old woman with silver hair like snow on crutches and staggering. His gaze looked from the ruined courtyard.

"Xiao Lao has something to go out, he will come back later, let's eat first." By the way, what's going on outside. Is the city gate still sealed, alas, this day really can't be lived. The north and south gates are sealed, which makes the people in the pass how to live. Did you go to the general of the Northern Han Dynasty today to get any law, this city gate will not be opened for a day, and it is still the people in our Tianjing Pass City who will suffer. The old woman walked majestically, and said with dissatisfaction and indignation in her mouth.

"There is still no explanation, if the child does not run fast, he may be hit by a stick. This group of Northern Han thieves completely disregarded the lives and deaths of our people. The emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty actually worshiped the Khitan dog as his father, which is really despicable, those Khitan barbarians, not hiding in the deep mountains of the grassland, but came to peep at the great rivers and mountains of my Central Plains, it is really the ambition of the wolf. ”

After the mother and son were seated, the meal was already set on the shabby wooden table. The two of them picked up the worn-out bowl and were about to start eating, when the gate of the courtyard creaked open, and they saw an old man in cloth clothes walking from outside the courtyard, an ordinary old man, with wrinkles like ravines under the silver threads on his head. The old man's eyes were cloudy, and he walked slowly under his feet, and he carefully stepped over the muddy ground, and walked towards the house.

Xiao Yujing stayed in Tianjing Pass, he was not in a hurry to leave, and when he came to Tianjing Pass, this small town-sized city had not yet been captured by the Northern Han army. And he also stayed in Gao Chengde's house as an old man who was about to die. Perhaps it was Gao Chengde's mother and son who saw that the old man was pitiful and helpless, so they kept him.

Xiao Yujing did not participate in the military operations carried out by the Northern Han Dynasty against Tianjing Pass, and occasionally encountered the Khitan wolf blood guard, and there was no problem with his martial arts cultivation. What's more, he still stayed in this gate as a hobbling old man, and he didn't let those Khitan wolf blood guards recognize him.

"Old Xiao, where have you been, hurry up, you're having dinner!" Gao Chengde saw through the open wooden door in front of the house, and saw Xiao Yujing slowly entering at a glance, and he immediately greeted the other party. He didn't have any suspicions about this old man who was suddenly trapped in Tianjing Pass City on the grounds of joining relatives. In the eyes of Gao Chengde's mother and son, Xiao Yujing is just an old man who can't get relatives and has no support.

"Hehe, I've been bothering you for so many days, and there are two Laos." Xiao Yujing narrowed his cloudy eyes, with a hint of apology in his tone.

"Look at what you said, what bother, don't bother, who doesn't have a difficulty, Xiao Lao, you can live here with peace of mind, and it's not too late to leave the city when the city gate is unsealed. Anyway, it's our mother and son, although this yard is a little dilapidated, but the room is quite enough, but I'm afraid that you won't be used to living in our mountains. ”

"Where, if it weren't for the two of you, I would have died on the streets."

Xiao Yujing asked Gao Chengde about some things in the city, and he couldn't find anything, the city gate was sealed, and the news from the outside could not be transmitted into the city at all. The three of them chatted while eating, while Gao Chengde's mother and son kept scolding the Northern Han thieves, of course, including the Khitan barbarians.

There was only a pot of gruel on the wooden table, and a few side dishes, and after Gao Chengde made a bowl of porridge for Xiao Yujing, he opened his mouth to eat. When the mother and son talked about their interest, they couldn't help but scold, and the rules such as not saying anything were completely ignored.

"Cough, cough, cough." Where could Xiao Yujing listen to the words of the mother and son, and when he heard their scolding, he couldn't help but choke on the gruel. He was almost about to lose his breath, and the mother and son were drinking gruel and scolding the Khitans.

"Old Xiao, what's the matter, our family has all this food now, and I don't know when the city gate will be unsealed, so I can only drink porridge now. Don't you mind, just blame those Northern Han thieves, who have nothing to do when they are full, and actually invade the border of my Great Zhou, do they think that if they take this Tianjing Pass, they can take down the entire Great Zhou in one fell swoop. Seeing this, Gao Mu showed a slight look of resentment in the old Longzhong, and said to Xiao Yujing.

"It's okay, it's okay, I just choked. Now it's good to have porridge to drink, and the old decay is already very satisfied. Xiao Yujing slapped his chest fiercely and quickly explained. The grievance in his heart was simply nowhere to go, and the mother and son kept scolding the Khitans, which made him very embarrassed. While hiding his aggrieved expression, he gulped down the light gruel.

The faint smell of blood on the street has not completely dissipated, and the smell of blood that is thick and faint from time to time rises and falls, making pedestrians walking on this street can't help but have the urge to gag. Fortunately, the spring rain washed away the blood stains on the street, otherwise, the blood stains on the street would have made this Tianjing Guancheng a Senluo hell.

Ma Chenghui's steps were very light, he looked at the dim sky, and couldn't help but feel anxious. He had lost contact with the Flying Sparrow Camp brothers who had entered the Tianjingguan City, and he did not know how many more Flying Sparrow Camp brothers had entered the Tianjingguan Castle now. He only knew that the Northern Han army had captured many people from the Flying Bird Battalion, and some of them had sacrificed their lives for the country.

Thinking of that overwhelming pursuit, he still had lingering palpitations at the moment, it was the elite of the Flying Sparrow Camp, and he was killed by a group of people dressed in Khitan costumes. He will never forget the thick bloody aura that permeated the bodies of those Khitans, as well as their extremely fierce expressions. If it weren't for the help of this group of Khitans, how could the Northern Han army, which succeeded in the sneak attack on Tianjing Pass, be able to hunt them down so badly.

The officers and soldiers of the Great Zhou who defended the city were completely defeated, and it could almost be said that it was an overwhelming massacre, except for the civilian people in the city who were not greatly implicated, all the officers and soldiers of the Great Zhou in the city were completely killed. As for whether there were any fish that slipped through the net, he did not know.

During that massacre, he fled around the city like a lost dog. What he didn't expect was that after the Northern Han army captured Tianjing Pass, they sealed the city gate, allowing him to wander around the city. Perhaps God favored him, and when he fled into the widow's house, the crisis was lifted. And he could only settle down in the widow's house for a while, and the wind was not tight for a few days, so he came out of the widow's house to find out the situation.

Widow Zhang was in her thirties, and her ex-husband fell into a trap he hunted during a hunting trip and died. Dead is dead, widow Zhang thinks she is a strong woman, so she does not spend all day like other people, she herself made bacon from the beasts hunted by her ex-husband, and she can also sell them for some money to live. This small pass town is not big, and the neighbors will also help to take care of it, buy the beasts that others hunt back, process them by themselves, and then sell them, so her life is very peaceful, just like the water in the pond, without any waves.

Until a few days ago, she herself didn't know what had happened, and in that night, many people had died on the streets, most of them the officers and soldiers guarding the city in this patio pass. She had just gotten up that day, and because spring had come, she had collected a lot of meat, and she wanted to take it out early in the morning and put it in front of her house, and then sell it for a good price.

However, what she didn't expect was that when he opened the courtyard door, he saw bloodstained corpses on the long blood-stained street. What she didn't expect was that the officers and soldiers guarding the city at this Tianjing Pass had been replaced, and it was said to be the Northern Han Army in the north. That morning, she was almost unfinished, not because of how sad she was or how much she loved Da Zhou. Because, anyone who sees the streets full of corpses and rivers of blood will not be able to eat a grain of rice.

She is not a person with a strong concept of the state, she is just an ordinary woman, she is still a widow, and her first task is how to support herself. Whether it is for the Great Zhou or the Northern Han Dynasty, no matter which country manages this Tianjing Pass, as long as she can survive, she doesn't care.

She thought that this was just an ordinary war between the two countries, she thought that it would all pass, anyway, it was those officers and soldiers who died, and few ordinary people like them suffered. This war did not affect the people of Tianjing Pass too much, it was just a successful sneak attack, and there were no civilians involved.

However, she still did not expect that her life was like a big stone thrown into a calm pond, although it did not produce a huge wave, but it also stirred up a ripple wave that was not too high. That day, she finally calmed down the panic in her heart and prepared to cook and eat. She heard a fierce tearing sound coming from the street, and then a rush of footsteps came from the whole strip after a tearing sound.

Not long after, a man covered in blood broke into her compound, and she was overwhelmed by the horror. The man went straight into her house and hid. Not long after, there was a quick knock on the door of her courtyard, I don't know why, but she didn't have the original fear in her heart, and actually went to open the door. Standing in front of his door was a group of strangely dressed people, simply a group of unreasonable barbarians.

Widow Zhang herself didn't know what happened that day, and she didn't know why she was so calm that day. The group of people spat out indistinct Chinese, which made her incomprehensible, and then she herself tricked the group of people by magic. All this made her feel extremely weird, maybe it wasn't providence, God asked her to help this man covered in blood.
