Chapter 1 Precarious
In the golden autumn season, it should be the harvest festival, the land of Yizhou, the land of the world, since the Qin Zhao King Li Bing and his son organized the construction of Dujiangyan on the basis of the predecessors of the turtle spirit, this project has been playing a great role, making this plain become the "land of abundance" of water and drought from people, fertile fields for thousands of miles.
But at this moment, the former fertile fields outside Mianzhu City are full of weeds and thorns.
Above the city, dozens of puffs of smoke rushed into the sky.
The majestic city wall has been broken in many places, under the supervision of the armor soldiers, countless people of Shu were driven miserably, ants rushed desperately to the city, the rain of arrows at the head of the city fell mercilessly towards the compatriots, every moment, there were countless people falling.
Another batch of giant trebuchets known as "thunderbolts" arrived at the front, which was Cao Wei's sharp weapon, and Cao Wei had relied on it to attack the fortified position during the battle of Guandu.
In a moment, a huge stone projectile pierced the sky.
"Boom" a series of loud noises, in the dust and rubble, a section of the city wall crumbling, suddenly, the entire battlefield, cheers landslide and tsunami erupted!
Deng Ai, Cao Wei's general of the expedition to the west, stood majestically on the high platform at this time, around him, thousands of flags were flying, three thousand tigers were waiting, and in the distance, tens of thousands of athletes lined up, endless.
Above the void, the white dragon qi that was invisible to the naked eye, with the color of red gold killing, rushed straight into the clouds, like a giant sword piercing the sky, rolling the wind and clouds.
Deng Ai stared into the distance at this time, and suddenly sighed.
"General, there are millions of kings and thousands of generals, all of whom are arrayed here, why does the general sigh? Are you worried about this battle? A Taoist priest beside him saluted and asked.
"Hey, don't worry about this battle, and now, the world is safe in all directions, at this moment this Jinzhu City, the Lord of Shu is cowardly, and the great cause is in front of him; Although there is a place where Dongwu lives in the southeast, but the people of Dongwu are unbearable, and it is even more difficult to stop the army. Why should I be worried! ”
At this moment, the flag waved in the distance, and I saw a darkness in the sky, and another rain of arrows rushed straight up, covering the sky and the sun.
As the whistling rain of arrows fell, a large number of people fell in response, and the corpses of friends and foes were piled up in a staggered manner.
The drums of war thundered, one after the other, straight into everyone's hearts.
Driven by this, more and more people were escorted to fill in the gaps, without the slightest respite for the defenders of the city.
In the distance, another section of the city wall fell with a loud "boom".
"Kill, kill!" The roaring order sounded, and Cao Wei's iron cavalry, which was eyeing him fiercely, finally started, and the sound brought by his advance was like thunder, and the sound of thunderous horses' hooves rolled away, giving the final blow.
"Watching the boulder hit the city today, I thought of Jinghou again, this thunderbolt was still created by him!"
Deng Ai looked at the fierce fight in front of him as if he were ignoring it, staring into the distance, his eyes were far away: "It's just that when Liu Ziyang didn't know the sky, he went crazy and died, it's a pity!" ”
The battle array rumbled in the distance, but it did not hide its voice, but several people around him had gloomy faces at this time, bowing their heads and saying nothing.
Liu Ye, the word Ziyang, Huainan Chengde, is the descendant of Liu Yan, the son of Liu Xiu, the son of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Ye is young and well-known, known as the talent of the world, is Cao Cao's important strategist, he has repeatedly offered wonderful plans, and the development of the situation in the world is often in a word.
Liu Ye served as Cao Peng, the chief bookkeeper, the chief soldier and the leader of the army in the Cao Cao era, but in the Cao Pi era, he served as a loose cavalry attendant, a servant in the middle of the position, although the position is not too high, but has been the confidant of the Wei lords of the past dynasties, participating in the planning and decision-making of major matters, "and conferred Ye the responsibility of a confidant; Whenever there is a doubt, he will ask Ye by letter, and dozens of ears will be heard overnight. "Always an important staff officer of Lord Wei.
It is precisely with a group of such excellent strategists that Wei Wu has the hegemony of sweeping away the heroes and having two out of three in the world.
But as a son of the Liu family of the Han Dynasty, Cao Wei could not trust Liu Ziyang after all, and finally Liu Ye died of grief.
It's just that now Cao Wei only has his name, the heart of the Sima family, everyone knows it, Deng Ai thought about all of it, but he sighed, turned around, and said: "The city is broken, Xu washes the city, so as to deter the Shu lord in the Jinguan City!" ”
The order was handed down, the generals agreed to the promise, they were very happy, Jinzhu City is the old capital of Shu Han, but it is also a little rich, the people of Shu Han are rich, they will fight this time, and there will be a lot of gains.
In a moment, the sound of killing was everywhere in the city, and the sound of cries and cries could be heard for miles, almost like hell.
There are Taoists standing on a high platform, using the law to watch, the white gold killing qi straight into the sky, spiraling upward, the white dragon faintly, there is the appearance of a king.
With the slaughter order, the blood light was filled and rushed straight to the dragon pillar.
"Good, this side is in great difficulty, and it is all due to the number of qi!" Under the high platform, several Taoist priests saluted again, although their eyes showed pity, but no one dared to stand up and admonish, otherwise they might be among the slaughtered.
They are five buckets of rice, swaying from side to side in troubled times, and they are also attached to the strong; Since the failure of the Yellow Turban Rebellion in Taiping Dao, it is no longer possible for the Daomen to have a chance to establish any laws in the world, and can only rely on the ruler to survive.
As these Taoist priests cast spells, the auspicious light went straight to the sky, the clear qi hung down, sprinkled with joy, and the Dao qi depended on the dragon pillar, only to see the Dao qi to come, and the continuous brilliance hit the blood light where they lived, and the blood light splashed and shattered, and in the haze, the slaughter below continued.
"This land of ours, this land of ours, kill thieves!"
"The old father was killed, the wife was humiliated, and the young son died!"
"Revenge, revenge!"
The trombone of countless unwilling souls shook the spiritual world.
"God is merciful, bringing down rain, telling all ghosts, and resolving grievances." The jade-like voice shook the void and dissipated the resentment of the ghosts.
At this moment, the people present suddenly showed a shocked face, looking at the sky, the vast sky, the sun was shining, although there were thousands of stars, it was still dim, suddenly, at this time in the sky, a strong white gas rose up, across the sky.
"It's the meaning of blue blood and green danqing."
"Chang Hong was released to Shu, hated and loyal, and died, and the Shu people felt it, and they used their blood to turn into jasper in three years, could it be that they were the sages of Shu?"
"It's not good, it's meant to interfere with our mana!"
I saw the white rainbow running through the heaven and the earth, its qi was so big and strong, stuffed between the heaven and the earth, almost irrepressible, the heavenly emperor nectar that opened in the sky, was rushed by this qi, and suddenly shook violently.
And the resentful spirits that were originally thin in blood and light suddenly let out a long voice, and millions of resentful spirits roared in unison, and the dark clouds in the sky suddenly gathered, rolling and rushing, like the sea before a hurricane came.
Only the white gas penetrated, still pouring in, and the trombone of the unwilling souls rushed to the white light one after another.
The people present, all who observed this vision, couldn't help but shudder at this time, were shocked, and immediately stepped forward and advised Deng Ai: "General, it's not good, stop washing the city!" ”
It was too late, too fast to come, and a million resentful spirits rushed into the white light, and suddenly, the white light rolled up with millions of resentful spirits, forming a large ball of light that was white on the outside and red on the inside, rushing upward.
At this moment, between the sky, a big white star suddenly flashed, the brilliance was scorching, swaying, and there was a great opportunity to immediately shake the world, and then make the heaven and earth overturn.
The starlight fell straight down, rushing with the ball of light, only to hear the sound of "boom", the sky darkened, and a mysterious vortex appeared.
"Oh no, it's chaotic." The faces of those present were colorless at this time.
A gust of wind blew, only to hear the sound of "click", representing the Chinese army's Weizi banner, folded in response.
……
Jianmen Pass, the first prime minister Zhuge to Hande County has "the big sword to the small sword pass bundle road thirty miles, even the mountain is extremely dangerous", in this place, "chisel the stone overhead for the Feiliang Pavilion Road, to pass the brigade", and in the cliff of the big sword mountain to interrupt the two cliffs to confront each other, lean on the cliff stone for the door, place the pavilion captain, set up a garrison, called the Sword Pavilion, has become a vital military pass.
A deserted village near the left, at this time a group of people were stranded here because of the heavy rain, although the sky has cleared now, the air is still faintly filled with moisture.
Guan Yi took a big step and walked out of the depths of the forest, he was wearing an armored jacket and a sword at his waist, obviously not a commoner.
At this time, in his hands were several pheasants and hares.
Because it had just rained, the dampness on his body was already in early autumn, and it was cold to the bone, but Guan Yi had no time to take care of these at this time, he only thought about the situation in the camp.
"I don't know if His Highness has woken up or not" Thinking of the current situation, Guan Yi's face showed a trace ......of anxiety.
Yesterday, when they were attacked, their army was defeated, the main envoy Huang Chong was killed on the spot, the army was defeated, and the deputy envoy Guan Yi escorted Her Royal Highness the princess to withdraw in time, but the situation at this time was also precarious, but at this time, His Royal Highness fell from his horse because of the heavy rain and slippery roads, unconscious.
The chaos is just around the corner, Her Royal Highness the princess is unconscious, and the vassals in the camp are a little noisy at this time, how can this happen?
As a result, Guan Yi became more and more anxious.
At this time, the autumn rain fell again, and after walking for a while, a path had already appeared in front of it, and after crossing the dirt road, and then entering a small valley, which was the temporary hiding place of this team, I don't know......
Guan Yi was about to walk out from behind the tree, when suddenly, he suddenly fell down, hid in a jungle, took out his longbow, and listened with his ears, his eyes showing a vigilant light.
Holding his breath for a while, a sound of horses' hooves came from a distance, Guan Yi's eyes were cold, he pulled out an arrow, put it on, and waited.
After a while, several cavalrymen galloped from the side of the road, observing the clothes, Guan Yi couldn't help but gasp at this time, this rushing cavalry is all wearing armor, and there are short crossbows hanging on their arms, this is undoubtedly the enemy, and they are all elite.
After many years of scuffle in the world, the people's livelihood in Shu was maintained by Prime Minister Zhuge in the past, and they have withered to the extreme, and the Central Plains has suffered a lot.
Therefore, this elite soldier is the most important thing, don't underestimate the number of horses, just look at the horses, armor and weapons, you know that this is the elite of the blood, in Shudi, it is the number of times, such elites, I am afraid that there are only more than 1,000 horses, and they are all used together.
The horses galloped away, and when the cavalry was far away, Guan Yi walked out from behind the tree, looking at their distant shadows, and his angular faces were not only vigilant, but also a little afraid.
"It's a tiger and leopard ride, and it's actually here!" Guan Yi's heart was pounding violently, he didn't expect that so soon, the enemy had already noticed the loss of an important target, and chased him to this area.
"No, I'm going back immediately!" Carrying the wild object, Guan Yi ran to the opposite side.
While Guan Yi was collecting herbs, about 100 people were gathering in the deserted village, and most of them were sitting down and resting at this time.
These people were dressed in a messy manner, faintly divided into several camps, there were more than twenty people, all wearing thin leather armor, around a man about thirty years old, this man had a resolute face, touched the knife and said nothing, as if in thought.
There were also nearly ten people in one place, all dressed in gorgeous costumes, but everyone here had a panicked and decadent look on their faces.
There are dozens of people, who look very tough when they look at their figures, but their clothes are very simple, all dressed as mountain people.
In another place, it was a woman, but they were all carrying swords and wearing military uniforms, but most of them looked at the people around them vigilantly.
None of these people spoke, most of them were resting, and they were now in this village, a vacated house, and there was a tent in the courtyard, and the female guards were guarding the tent.
The autumn rain that had stopped suddenly began to fall again, and after a while, the rain fell a little heavier, and dense raindrops fell from the sky, and the west wind raged on the empty fields, sometimes dense and sometimes sparse.
Suddenly, the originally quiet place suddenly made noises, complaints, reprimands, and footsteps, all of which were mixed together, adding a bit of terror and uneasiness to this military camp out of thin air on a rainy night.
In the tent, on a makeshift wooden bed, a young girl lay down.
This girl is about sixteen or seventeen years old, delicate in appearance, white and greasy, not to mention that it is rare in the north, even in the water town of Jiangnan, it is very rare, she is wearing a green brocade dress, the color is very bright, but under the reflection of her countenance, no matter how brilliant the brocade has been overshadowed, but the girl's eyes are now closed, as if she is unconscious, around her, there are four beautiful female guards.
"Your Highness's situation, it should be said that it is okay!" A slightly delicate female guard took her hand away from the girl's wrist at this time and spoke.
"What do you mean...... Is Your Highness alright? As soon as they heard this, the other three female guards all looked at the girl who was still asleep, and they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that the girl always didn't wake up, one of the female guards couldn't help but say, "Then why hasn't His Highness been awake?" Zhang Ning, aren't you a family heirloom? Any idea what's going on? ”
"Although I have a family tradition, I am not a miracle doctor, and I will only have this ability to read the pulse!" The girl named Zhang Ning retorted at this time.
"That's just as well." The three of them didn't say much, just nodded, said helplessly, and then fell silent.
Seeing this, Zhang Ning thought for a moment before saying: "I don't know what happened to His Highness now, but now the Han is still there, His Royal Highness is a noble man, protected by a hundred spirits, and he will be auspicious." ”
