Chapter 788

Through the white mist that has just risen in the forest in the early morning, the autumn night dew soaks the branches, revealing strange patterns of purple and brown.

Cheng Dalei carried a sword and walked forward on rotten leaves and dead branches. He has experienced a night of fierce fighting, and now he is also physically and mentally exhausted, if there is a bed now, Cheng Dalei is afraid that he will fall down immediately and sleep all day long. But Cheng Dalei can't fall, Xu Shenji and his group don't know where they have fallen, and they must find them.

When passing through the white fog, Cheng Dalei covered his mouth and nose, and the miasma in the mountains and forests was dense. Many people walked in the woods before they fell to the ground and never got up again. Such wet weather is the most draining of a person's qi and blood, and hunters who have been hunting in the forest for many years can rarely have a long life.

I don't know where they have been......

"Big Boss ......"

A tentative voice suddenly sounded, and Cheng Da thundered and saw Xu Shenji come out of a bush of weeds on the side of the road. Behind him is Cui Baiyu, who is leading the black bull. Cui Baiyu looked timid, and quietly looked at Cheng Dalei.

Last night, I really walked in front of the ghost gate, and anyone could be killed. Cui Baiyu has been able to live until now, which is really a fluke. Even if Cui Baiyu prides himself on being a bold person, but he has not experienced it himself, how can he be qualified to say that he is not afraid.

And those who have experienced it first-hand often don't say that they are not afraid.

"Are you all right?" asked Cheng Dalei.

"It's okay, it's all alive. Xu Shenji wiped the dew off his face and asked, "Big boss, didn't you see that old nun?"

"Dead. ”

Xu Shenji was stunned, then rubbed his face and sighed softly: "Oh, it turned out to be dead." ”

"What about the others?" asked Cheng Dalei.

"I don't know, they're all separated. Xu Shenji said: "Big boss, are we going to find them?"

Cheng Dalei shook his head, Shan Xiongxin and Liu Facai took Qiao Rongyun a weak woman, and it should be no problem for the three of them to protect themselves. Even if you find a random place to nest, you have the ability to wait for this turmoil to pass before returning to Liangzhou. And Cheng Dalei really didn't have time to delay here, a fire from the Rong clan had already burned the pot of the empire, but Cheng Dalei was still tripped here.

"Let's go, go back to Liangzhou. ”

Cheng Dalei stepped forward, and suddenly stumbled under his feet. Thanks to Xu Shenji's slow reaction, he supported him in time. Feeling that Cheng Dalei's wrist was frighteningly cold, Xu Shenji was startled:

"Big boss, are you sick?"

"It's nothing, it's still holding up. ”

Cheng Dalei waved his hand, only then did he realize that he didn't even seem to have the strength to lift his arm, his body was cold and hot for a while, and his temples kept drumming.

Xu Shenji sighed, put Cheng Dalei on the back of the black cow, led the cow himself, and the three of them went on the road together.

Now Cheng Dalei was lying on the back of the black bull, Xu Shenji walked in front with his hands, and a serious look rarely appeared on his face.

What is the big boss, he is obviously too sick to walk, but he still has to be reluctant. The big boss is sick, Cui Baiyu is a weak woman, and there are many dangers ahead, and there are not many people waiting to kill their group.

The burden of the daughter is all on Xu Shenji alone, and Xu Shenji gritted his teeth firmly: At present, he is completely on his own, and it depends on how the military division strategizes and plays everyone like a child.

He turned his head and patted Cheng Dalei on the shoulder, and said, "Big boss, don't worry, I will definitely take you back to Liangzhou." ”

Cheng Dalei was originally in a daze, but when he heard this, he was immediately excited. Relying on Xu Shenji, he didn't bring himself into the ghost gate, and with the last bit of consciousness, Cheng Dalei entered the system interface and ignited the beacon fire of the system point.

......

The Sunset Pass was breached overnight, and the Rong tribe viciously bit a gap in the iron wall of the empire, and the 200,000 army drove straight into the territory of the empire.

Breaking through the Xizhao Pass, it will be close to Chang'an, and the imperial flowers and rivers are close at hand.

When the news reached Chang'an, Li Letian was so frightened that he fell directly from the dragon bed. He leaned on the edge of the bed for a long time and remained motionless, and the eunuchs and palace maids around him did not dare to come over to help.

Li Letian looked up to the sky and sighed: "Father, father, what kind of mess are you leaving to your children?"

Trapped in Chang'an, and fought a bloody battle in the state, he finally succeeded to the throne, but was hollowed out into a puppet by Cui Xiang. The high-ranking Son of Heaven took a risk and made a puppet, and finally got rid of Cui Xiang, and convened a meeting of vassal kings to temporarily stabilize the situation in the empire. Li Letian thought in his heart, give himself some more time, and slowly clean up the old mountains and rivers.

At this time, the Rong clan called.

This time was very different from the past, they bit through the northwest barrier and rushed straight to Chang'an. The Rong clan has 200,000 iron horses, and if they want to step on the splendid Chang'an, how should Jingzhou resist.

Although there are 300,000 Praetorian Guards in Jingzhou, they are all scattered all over the country, not to mention that most of them are in the hands of wealthy families in various places. Li Letian didn't really have much force in his hands.

After a long time, Li Letian stood up from the ground and spit out a breath of turbidity in his chest: "Change clothes." ”

The palace maids and eunuchs who were waiting surrounded him, put on a purple and gold crown for him, and put on a nine-dragon robe.

The morning came a little early, and when Li Letian arrived, the crowd was already noisy. The Rong people broke through the Xizhao Pass, and the troops would come to the city in a few days.

The civilian, military and military generals quarreled together, and in the final analysis, it was one thing: how to deal with the Rong army?

Most people want peace talks, only a few people want to fight with the Rong people, when Li Letian appeared, they have already skipped the stage of fighting and fighting, and now they are discussing how to make peace?

How much land to cede, how much property to give, and which princess to send to make peace, so that the Rong people can collect troops and return to the grassland.

Li Letian is no stranger to peace talks, and he once personally led a negotiation with the Rong people. At the same time, he also knew very well that peace talks would not lead to any good results.

Nation to country is the same as the relationship between people, if you don't have enough strength and only rely on groveling, then you will never be respected by others.

"This battle ......" Li Letian finally spoke, the voice in the hall quieted down, and everyone waited for the answer in his mouth: "Fight to the death." ”

There was silence, and everyone wondered if this son of heaven was hysterical, and why was he full of nonsense.

An old minister staggered to his knees: "Your Majesty, think twice, the tiger and wolf rider of the Rong clan, the people of the empire are in need of rest and recuperation at the dawn of the empire, and it is still a hundred years to endure the humiliation for a while." ”

More people fell to their knees and asked Li Letian for peace talks with the Rong people. What they say in their mouths is the righteousness of the country, but in their hearts they are the people of Limin, and it seems that Li Letian does not care about them, that is, he does not care about the righteousness of the country and the people of Limin.

Looking at the chaotic crowd at the bottom of the steps, Li Letian sighed softly, and slowly said four words in his heart.

"There is no way back. ”
