Chapter 1075 Hidden Soldiers in the Valley
Yang Yue led the army back to the camp.
Ordered the three armies to quell the panic in the barracks and rebuild the fortifications.
Strengthen patrols and guard against wolves from returning and preventing night attacks by Sassanid legions in Talas.
At the same time, send someone to prepare dinner for Adele.
During this period, he led the generals of various armies to inspect the military camp, and when he ensured that he had no worries, he went to the king's tent alone to visit Lin Miaoyin, Yue Nujiao, He Qinxin and the three princes.
Everything was arranged, and then he turned his head and walked out of the king's tent.
Beat drums and gather generals to discuss military affairs.
Ordered Yan Yuefeng to sit in the military camp and guard the Sassanid army that was eyeing the city of Talas.
He and Attila took a hundred iron horsemen with them, and accompanied Adele.
The night sky in the Western Regions is full of stars, as if heaven and earth are connected.
The silver moon shines on the ground, illuminating the Gobi.
The sand and dust were long, and the Tang army was marching quickly.
Along the way, I often encountered a lone wolf along the way, but fortunately Adele led the way, and the lone wolf didn't seem to get close.
Starting from the barracks, seven or eight miles north, the group burrowed into the rolling mountains.
Walking cautiously along the rugged mountain paths, like a farmer collecting medicine, shuttling through the valley with nine twists and turns.
In many places, the roads are narrow and long, barely enough for two horses to go hand in hand.
In this way, they still encounter the secret agent, the Guardian.
Adele signaled, but fortunately there was no attack.
Out of the valley, everyone passed through a waterhole and into a narrow cave.
Inside the cave, it was dark and gloomy, filled with the smell of rancid and blood.
Several times, Yang Yue even stepped on the scattered bones on the ground.
Luckily, through the cave, the vision suddenly opened up.
When the bright moon shines in the sky, the clear spring stone is upstream, and the stars appear again.
Leaning over to look into the distance, in the night, a faint light faintly appeared in the distance.
Call.
Yang Yue spat out and couldn't help but sigh.
Adele's department, what happened to the ground in the past, who did he meet, and he hid in the mountains.
Tonight, if it weren't for Adele leading the way, even if a hundred or a thousand scouts were dispatched, they wouldn't have been able to find this place at all.
When looking around, Adele suddenly warned in a cold voice: "Your Majesty, my clansmen have never welcomed outsiders, and I hope the emperor will tell Tang Jun to put away his sword, so as not to misunderstand his clansmen." When you arrive at the tribe in a while, you'd better not run around, or you'll be killed by your clansmen, and I'm not responsible! ”
No stranger had ever arrived in the tribe, and she led Yang Yue to come here, only asking for food.
Now that he has returned to the tribe, if the Tang army is murderous, he will do evil everywhere and hurt the clansmen.
She would not let anyone leave with her own.
Hearing this, Yang Yue motioned to Tang Jun to put away his crossbow and long knife, and everyone led the war horses forward.
Catching up with Adele asked, "This is a mysterious place, an excellent place to hide soldiers, why do your people live here in seclusion?" ”
"Outsiders don't need to know about the things in the clan." Adele said unkindly.
Although Adele did not answer the reason, Yang Yue still firmly believed that this was a good place to hide soldiers.
Hiding tens of thousands of troops in the valley would have taken Clark by surprise.
The fly in the ointment is that the entrance to the valley is too small, and the army is pouring out, which is too time-consuming.
As I walked slowly, I encountered more and more spies hidden in the forest along the way.
Everyone is hidden in a steep place, and one husband is invincible.
If it weren't for an acquaintance to guide the way, no matter how many people came in, there would still be no return.
After passing through the narrow jungle, we arrived at the place where the Adele tribe lived, where the bonfire had not yet been extinguished, and a young man patrolled with a scimitar.
"Your Majesty, this place is so strange, in the arid land of the Western Regions, there is such a large oasis hidden in the mountain stream." Attila approached, wary.
He had suffered at the hands of the mountain bandits led by Adele, so even if Adele cooperated with the emperor and prepared to eliminate the Sassanids, he still did not dare to relax along the way.
If he remembered correctly, along the way, there were more than ten places to hide spies, and Adele took them to avoid many traps and traps.
Obviously, the people here are not the ones who originally lived here, but they were forced to come here.
Yang Yue nodded slightly, he had more doubts in his heart.
Along the way, the people he met were very similar in appearance except for the difference in dress from Tang Jun.
If it weren't for shuttling through the forest, he once suspected that he had returned to Chang'an.
As he spoke, a shout came from within the tribe, breaking the silence of the night sky.
"Adele is back."
"Adele is back with the living!"
The sound rang out, and in a few breaths, a blazing bonfire suddenly lit on all sides of them, candles lit up in all the stone houses, and many people suddenly appeared beside them.
Hundreds of men, women, and children surrounded them in the center.
Everyone was holding a weapon in their hands, and the sturdy man in front of him grabbed his sword and pointed it at them, looking extremely vigilant.
At the same time, more and more people from all sides, grabbing all kinds of soldiers, came whirring, like looking at monkeys, watching them.
Attila didn't dare to be careless, and was busy protecting Yang Yue, and the accompanying Tang Jun quickly drew his war knife and raised his crossbow to be vigilant.
By the light of the candlelight, looking at the men, women and children in front of him, Yang Yue felt a little weird.
This weirdness does not come from the other party's decoration, but from their appearance.
Confused, Attila quietly approached and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the people here look similar to the Tang Army, but they are not like the people near Talas City. ”
That's right.
Yang Yue's doubts come from this.
He also felt that the person in front of him was too similar to Tang Jun.
couldn't help but signal to the Tang Army next to him, put away his sword, and shouted: "Don't be rude." ”
After the words fell, a shout came from the crowd: "Adele, have you forgotten the family rules, it is strictly forbidden to bring anyone back." ”
Yang Yue looked in the direction where the voice came from, and the men, women, and children gathered next to him got out of the way.
Behind an old woman, an old man with a white square came out, not on crutches, but instead with a spear in his hand.
"Uncle Yu, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty promised to give us food, destroy the Sassanids with his clansmen, set foot on the city of Talas, and avenge the dead ancestors!" Adele stepped forward, helped the old man miserably, and said with a little jealousy.
The old man named Uncle Yu staggered forward, with a spear and a hunchback looking back and forth at Yang Yue and the Tang Jun next to him.
Unconsciously, the face that looked like the bark of a dead tree unexpectedly rolled out drops of tears.
"Your Majesty!"
After a crying roar, Uncle Yu threw the spear and knelt on the ground with a pop.
Uncle Yu's sudden unguarded behavior made Yang Yue stunned and puzzled, it could be that he was wise and far-reaching, and even the people of the Western Regions heard that he was the emperor's grace, and he could not surrender voluntarily.
Before he could figure out what was going on, there were more than a dozen silver-haired old men in the crowd, kneeling on the ground with tears in their eyes.
The women, the young men, and the children next to them, were confused.
Together with Adele, who led Yang Yue and the others in, she was also stunned, looking at the clansmen and not knowing what was going on.
