    Some people's nature is like a vine. How high they can climb does not depend on how powerful they are, but on which big tree they are attached to. Liu Guizhe is obviously this kind of person. When outside the west wall of Chang'an City, he suddenly found himself  Maybe after the towering tree exuding vitality in Anxi Army, Papua New Guinea, the whole person was immediately reborn.

    The survival routines that he had rehearsed countless times in his mind were all nullified at that moment. The flattering words that he had memorized by heart were also forcibly forgotten by him in an instant. He forced himself to straighten up and forced himself to raise his head to speak.  He forced himself not to avoid the sharp and cold gazes from the city wall, and then he discovered that it was not that difficult to do so. In fact, it felt very relaxing. In fact, his bones were not soft at all. It was just that he had been hunched over for so long that he almost  Just turned into a hunchback

    This arrogant attitude made Lu Yu, the general on duty at the west gate of Chang'an City, very angry. However, he did not dare to make the decision for Sun Xiaozhe without authorization and hacked the envoy to death. He had to suppress the anger in his heart and lead Sun Xiaozhe into the city while looking at his relatives.  The soldiers signaled him to go forward and deliver a message to Marshal Sun, so that he could give the Anxi Army's messenger a warning.

    Liu Guizhe's attainments in evil ways were no less than anyone among the military generals of the time. He noticed that the guard had deliberately slowed down his horse's pace, and he himself smiled, relaxed the reins, and looked around at the scenery in Chang'an City.

    Although it had only been half a year since he left here, the scene in front of him made him feel as if he had been frozen for centuries. This was not the Chang'an in his memory. Although the Chang'an in his memory was filled with the smell of decaying wood, it was not completely dead. The Chang'an in front of him was not completely dead.  But can't see any life

    The eaves that were darkened by fireworks, numerous holes in the windows, and the garbage and horse excrement that could be seen everywhere formed the main scene of the city. No matter how hard you imagine, you can¡¯t compare it with Chang¡¯an City, which was the most prosperous and extravagant city in the world in the past.  connect

    The wind blowing in front of you is cold, and the water under the bridge has long since frozen. On the lumpy ice surface are running a dozen wild dogs of unknown species. Their fur is the only healthy color in this city, shiny and smooth red.  In the dark, they heard the footsteps of people and horses crossing the bridge. They immediately raised their heads and stared at the people with red eyes, expecting that new corpses would be thrown down or that someone could not bear the cold wind of winter and became a starving corpse.  Falling from the bridge

    It¡¯s not just the wild dogs under the bridge that look expectantly. On the other side of the bridge, the formerly prosperous Xishikou is now crowded with beggars, old and young, men and women, ready to sell their last strength and sex.  ¡õHowever, what they gained most of the time was disappointment. Although the Anxi Army did not have enough troops to surround Chang'an City on all sides and did not prohibit ordinary people from entering and exiting the city, the trade routes were already on the verge of being cut off.

    Few merchants are willing to take risks with large quantities of goods in a city that may fall at any time, and few wealthy families are willing to tie the fate of the entire clan to a broken ship that may sink at any time. Both of them are usually the main followers who hire idlers.  Their numbers are decreasing day by day, and there are fewer and fewer opportunities in Chang'an City to rely on physical strength to fill their stomachs. At the same time, public security is getting worse and worse, and there are more and more vicious incidents such as robbery and theft, and the city is becoming more and more dilapidated and desolate.  stand up

    Seeing Liu Guizhe and others walking past, the hungry people showed unconcealable hostility in their eyes. Some of them immediately turned around and lifted up their tattered burqas, revealing their skinny thigh bones and dirty buttocks. Some raised their chickens.  Claw-like black hands were raised high above their heads, praying to some kind-hearted soldier to drop one or two copper coins so that they could buy a bowl of hot noodle soup. Others clenched their fists and stood on both sides of the road, cursing in a low voice, hoping to ride.  The people on the war horse can be chopped into pieces by the Anxi army as soon as possible. To achieve this goal, he would rather use his own life to sacrifice in front of the gods. That is the only thing they can have and offer to the gods at the moment. Death is not terrible to them.  It may not be a relief to die with the people who destroyed your home.

    Whether it was insults, prayers or curses, the defenders were already numb to it and could pretend to be deaf to it. Liu Guizhe, who was "swarmed" in the middle of the team, couldn't do it. He endured it again and again, and finally couldn't help but take out a bean from his pocket.  The broken silver the size of the silver was thrown towards the oldest face among the hungry people.

    "Don't" Guard Lu Yu couldn't stop him and was shocked. Liu Guizhe's move immediately lit up the entire road like a spark splashing into hot oil. Countless men and women rushed towards the target of charity and knocked him to the ground.  The strongest guy opened the old man's fingers one by one and took away the pieces of silver. Before he could stand upright, he was immediately knocked over by several other people, punched and kicked, and took away the life-saving thing. In the blink of an eye, the pieces of silver changed several times in his hands.  A life comes to an end in an instant, and then more people pounce on them like jackals, baring their sharp teeth at their companions.

    "Hurry up!" The guard slapped Liu Guizhe, who was stunned, and led his men to quickly escape from the scene, surrounded by his horses.But they suddenly regained their senses and no longer killed each other for a small piece of silver. Instead, they targeted Liu Guizhe and the defenders. "Kill him, they have money!" I don't know who took the lead in shouting and then triggered the  The response was like a landslide and tsunami. Countless hands picked up stones, ice, wood, and tiles from the ground and threw them at them like hail.

    The soldiers at the end of the team turned their heads and raised their weapons to block left and right. The soldiers in front and on both sides of the team stepped directly on the heads of those who dared to block the road. Some soldiers were hit by stones and their mounts were torn into pieces by hungry people. Even more hungry people.  Being trampled by horse hoofs and cut into two pieces by a horizontal knife, the bloody light bloomed in the cold wind for an instant, and was condensed into ice by the cold wind for an instant. It stiffly condensed on the back of the person's hands, robe, face, and behind the nose, and was pierced into the memory through the pupils.  The memory is also dyed bright red

    Unknowingly, tears streamed down Liu Guizhe's face. This was his hometown, Chang'an, where he grew up. He enjoyed all the glory in this city and then abandoned it with his colleagues and colleagues. Abandoned, it doesn't count.  After a few days, he turned around and pushed it into despair with his own hands. This account was too big, too messy, and involved too many people, so there would never be a yamen to ask him to settle it. But Liu Guizhe knew that he would never be able to forgive him in this life.  Own

    He suddenly understood Wang Xun's mood that night when he wanted to kill all the prisoners. He also suddenly understood why Anxi's subordinates all became excited when they mentioned the words "rebuilding the Tang Dynasty". He raised his palm and wiped the blood and tears from his face.  Everything was wiped into the memory, gritting the teeth, seizing the time and rushing, forcing myself not to look at everything around me, and not to listen to any sounds around me. The war horse sprinted faster and faster, and finally left the chaos and blood behind a towering tower.  The building suddenly appeared in front of us. The left-behind camp on Xijing Road has arrived.

    The people in the camp obviously did not expect that the Anxi Army's messenger would move so fast. Many preparations were not made. When Liu Guizhe threw his stirrup and dismounted, he immediately set up his paint gun and tried to form a long corridor with cold light. Unexpectedly, several of them were improvised.  The wooden handle of the lacquer gun found in the palace was already rotten, and the tendons would be broken immediately after a slight collision with the surrounding objects.

    "Crack!" The hurriedly cleaned gun tip fell to the ground and splashed with a few clouds of brown smoke. The force turned into a big joke. The gunman stared with embarrassed eyes and was at a loss. The originally threatened target, Anxi Army messenger Liu Guizhe, laughed.  Before walking away, he leaned down to pick up the broken gun heads from the ground and handed them back to the soldiers one by one. Then he slowly stepped back and exited the covered area of ??the lacquered gun corridor and smiled at the general Lu Yugong who was escorting him.  The author suggested: "The usual rules for dealing with enemy envoys are to first let him announce his home address and then walk under the gun array to reduce his arrogance. Apparently General Sun has reversed the order. Please go in and remind him!"

    "You" The guard on duty stomped his feet in shame and anger and walked in. "Are you waiting here for my commander to talk to you if he has time to see you?"

    "No hurry, no hurry!" Liu Guizhe shook his head with a smile, as if he was facing a group of scoundrels and naughty boys. This calm attitude made the guard on duty even more embarrassed.  He quickly came out with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

    "My commander-in-chief ordered you to go in!" Several civil and military officials were greeted together. One of them looked very familiar, but he was Zhang Zhongzhi, who had joined the army in Mingfa, the former Longwu Army. He didn't know when he surrendered, and Sun Xiaozhe was already regarded as his confidant.

    "Won't you let me announce the door or walk under the gun array?" Liu Guizhe has a character that will hold on to an advantage and ask questions knowingly.

    "No, no, no!" Several Yan generals who were out to greet the messengers responded with embarrassment, "General Liu, don't take offense because the subordinates were fooling around just now. Sun Shuai already punished them when he found out!"

    "Liu also believes that General Sun Xiaozhe will never do such boring things!" Liu Guizhe smiled, straightened his clothes and walked slowly inside. He walked in front of his old acquaintance Zhang Zhongzhi and slowed down a little.  He glanced at the other person's face from the corner of his eye and shook his head slightly.

    "What does he mean?!" Zhang Zhongzhi had already recognized Liu Guizhe, but he didn't want to say hello. Suddenly he found that his old acquaintance seemed to be winking at him and was startled. His back instantly tensed up and a cold sweat ran down his face.  It drips down the spine @ya
