    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: Meng Yao took Li Qi and Master Qin who were under house arrest, led the army across the chasm in a mighty way, and as evening approached, a hundred thousand troops were stationed on the east bank of the Sishui River early.

    It was still bright at this time, so Meng Yao sent two thousand men and horses to Nanshan to cut down bamboo and rattan. He ordered carpenters to build more than a hundred bamboo rafts overnight and lined them up on the Sishui River.  Prepare to lead 5,000 soldiers to lure the enemy in the early morning of the next day.

    Not to mention, the war is about to break out here at Hulao Pass, but there is another natural danger one hundred and eighty miles away to the south - Dongling Pass.

    Dongling Pass is located between Xuchang and Dengfeng. It is an important transportation hub from the south to the west. It has the Songshan barrier at its back and the Ying River surrounding the city in the south. It has the potential of "one man can guard the pass and ten thousand people are invincible".

    Wang Heng, the guard general of Dongling Pass, is nearly forty years old. He has a Chinese character face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He has a strong back and a strong waist.  He was the second in the martial arts examination in the palace examination in the 15th year of Daxing. He inherited his father Wang Zhong's career and sat in Dongling Pass for more than five years.

    During the Moon Worship Festival on August 15th, Wang Heng, as the general guarding the pass, could not leave the pass to participate in the annual sacrificial ceremony. At this time, the royal family would also send a message to Dongling Pass on the next day to express his commendation.

    At this time, the sun has set halfway up the mountain, and the red afterglow reflects the colorful clouds in the sky, which also reflects the ripples on the water of the Ying River.

    Standing on the battlements, Wang Heng looked in the direction of Luoyang. Dressed in military uniform, his heart was rippling like the water on the Ying River behind him.

    Nearly a day has passed since August 16th. At this time in previous years, Huang Wen would have rushed six hundred miles away, but this year it has not been seen yet.

    As a general guarding the gate, he naturally paid attention to every move in the court. During the battle between King Long and the crown prince, he followed the advice of his father's brother, Yao Luoyun, the guard general of Hulao Gate.  Guard Dongling Pass

    Later, I heard about the battle between King Long and the Crown Prince, and even the two generals Jinwu and Longhu who were guarding the city in Liaodong were involved in it.  All these were common royal incidents in the past dynasties, but they made him feel a little uneasy.

    I always feel that something will involve me, but it will eventually happen.  Early this morning, the scouts who rushed over from Hulao Pass seemed to confirm what he was worried about.

    It was a handwritten letter sent by Yao Luoyun, the former guard general of Hulao Pass, from his righteous uncle. He said that the best general in the world had dismissed his position and appointed his trusted general, Guo Luoyun, who had made a fortune in the desert Gobi.  General Yiren took over full power

    The letter also said that he himself would come with two thousand soldiers to guard Dongling Pass in the early morning of the 16th.  Although nothing was revealed in the note, Wang Heng still saw a strong sound of iron fighting in it.

    "General," a guard holding a Mo knife ran over and interrupted Wang Heng, who was deep in thought, "The news came back from Mujiaji. In the past few days, there have suddenly been many strange woodcutters at the southern foot of Songshan Mountain."

    Wang Heng raised his head, and a strange look suddenly flashed across his resolute face. As a member of a military family, he has been exposed to various war anecdotes since he was a child, not to mention that he has personally guarded the border for nearly four to five years.

    Dressed as a woodcutter?  It's really childish. It's better to dress up as a pilgrim who comes here because of the reputation. Although there haven't been any major wars in Dongling Pass in the past few years, as an important trade hub from south to west, there are still some gangsters who come to rob it.  So Wang Heng had eyes all over the Mu family gathering, which was the only way to go, and he knew every move of those young people.

    "Have you ever found out where the grass bandits came from to escape this time?" Wang Heng asked calmly.

    ¡°It¡¯s not clear yet. The news from Mujiaji says that the woodcutter are different from the usual bandits. They live a sober life and don¡¯t worry about the people. They just enter the mountain at sunrise and leave the mountain at sunset¡ª¡ª¡±

    "Oh¡ª¡ª" Wang Heng frowned, "This is a bit strange¡ª¡ª"

    "General, my subordinates also think they are unusual. What are they looking for?" the soldier said with some cleverness.

    "Then what do you think they are looking for?" Wang Heng couldn't help but ask when he saw that the soldier in front of him was quite opinionated.

    The soldier lowered his head, pondered for a while, and then said to himself: "They are dressed as woodcutter. It seems inappropriate to go looking for things. Those woodcutter are well-trained and should be servants from rich families, but  If this is the case, then why bother dressing up? Besides, there is the famous Shaolin Temple on Songshan Mountain, and there is an endless stream of people coming and going. If you lose something, the hope of getting it back is very slim - that would be  For what?"

    Wang Heng couldn't help but show his approval after hearing his clear and logical analysis. It's rare for someone to have such a good name.It is not easy for the legendary pawn to think about these things. If he is trained a little bit, he will become a rare talent.

    "What are they looking for?" Wang Heng laughed suddenly, "You said they are well-trained, what can they look for?"

    "Oh -" the soldier suddenly understood and nodded, "General, you mean they are soldiers like us? But if that's the case, why do they do it secretly?" The soldier didn't understand again when he said this.

    "Humph - not only are they legitimate, they are our enemies." Wang Heng's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice, "If that's the case, it would make more sense. They should be looking for a shortcut to sneak into the border."

    "General, what should we do?" The soldier couldn't help but exclaimed when he heard this.

    Wang Heng didn't care about the fuss of the little soldier in front of him, but what he was thinking about at the moment was whether he should immediately get the little guy in front of him as a personal soldier.

    "What's your name? Which school counselor do you belong to?" Wang Heng asked kindly.

    "General, the young man's name is Gou Shengzi and he is working under Sun Xiaowei." The soldier responded in a low voice with his eyebrows lowered.

    "Are you willing to come to my place?"

    "Ah - really?" The leftover boy jumped up in surprise, "Little wish - willing -"

    "Then you go back and prepare to move here, and then go beat the drum to warn and inform the consolation halls of the major universities to discuss the matter."

    "Yes, I obey, little one," Gou Shengzi responded loudly and ran to beat the drum happily.

    After a while, the big drum on the tower made a dull and loud sound.  Suddenly the atmosphere on the tower became tense.

    "What happened?"

    "Why are you beating the drum? Is something big happening?"

    "I don't know, I'm taking a rest?"

    ""

    One by one, the principal and deputy principals whispered to each other and ran towards the meeting hall.

    In the meeting hall, Wang Henggao sat in the coach's seat, looking at the chief and deputy principals who came in one after another with a livid face. In the past ten years, the Central Plains has been peaceful and peaceful. Dongling Pass is also an important transportation route from south to west, and various economic and trade  The exchanges gradually diluted the importance of Dongling Pass as a military fortress.

    There are now less than 2,000 soldiers guarding Dongling Pass. Uncle Yao sent news from Hulao Pass last night, so he must be cautious.

    "Everyone who comforts the school," Wang Heng waited for them to sit down and inspected majestically. "We have refused to report that a group of gangsters will invade Dongling Pass in the next two days. Everyone knows that there are hundreds of thousands of unarmed people behind Dongling Pass."  People of the Sui Dynasty, we have received the emperor's favor in the past few years, but we have not done anything. It is really shameful to think about it. Now is the time to serve the emperor. In order to protect the wives, children and children behind you, you must do your best to protect Dongling."

    "I am willing to be humble, obey the general's orders, and serve the emperor." The major colonels stood up with a sigh of relief and shouted in unison.

    "Well then, I will stop chattering and give the order directly," Wang Heng said seriously, "Sun Xiaowei and Lin Xiaowei listen to the order."

    "The subordinates are here"

    "I order you two to lead our own troops and horses, as well as strong bows, arrows and crossbows to wait on the Nanling Ancient Road, and capture all those people in disguise. If there is any movement, arrows will burst out randomly, and they will be killed without mercy."

    "yes¡ª¡ª"

    "Iron School Comfort Listening Order"

    "Take your troops to the armory to collect five thousand arrow feathers, strengthen patrols, and guard the city gates."

    "Subordinates obey orders"

    "Okay, everyone else should go down and prepare according to their duties," Wang Heng ordered cleanly.

    £«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«£«

    The sun finally sets behind the mountain.

    The world suddenly became dark, and the people who went to the Mujiaji Market were sent back early by the soldiers guarding the gate.

    Just when the city gate was about to slowly close, a shower of horse hooves suddenly sounded outside Dongling Pass.

    ¡°Wait a minute, close the door, the border is reporting an emergency¡ª¡ª¡± A loud and long sound came from a distance.

    As soon as he finished speaking, a dozen fat and strong horses galloped over.  The dozen or so armored men on horseback were all in high spirits, and suddenly they didn't look like they were rushing back from the border.

    "In the past, these soldiers guarding the gate might have lowered the suspension bridge, checked it casually and let them pass by, but today General Wang just ordered that everyone should enter and exit according to official certificates.

    "The generals will be named, otherwise the bow and arrow will have no eyes." Tie Xiaowei on the tower stood up straight like a javelin.

    The horses finally finished one step. The moat was more than three feet wide, and no matter how good the horses were, they couldn't escape it.However, what's more, the city gate is tightly closed at this time.

    "Xi Yuyu¡ª¡ª" More than a dozen horses snorted and stopped in unison.

    "Who dares to block my military master's drive?" The leader, holding a hammer in each hand, with a high forehead and copper eyes, a body like an iron tower, and a black plush chest, shouted angrily in a loud voice.

    "You actually asked about our school's consolation." The iron school consolation saw him as a martial artist and couldn't help but joked, "Black bear, where did you come from? Do you have an official certificate?"

    "Little bastard cake, his grandmother, please stop talking nonsense. Quickly put down the suspension bridge and pissed off the military commander. The military commander will smash you into a pulp with a hammer." The black bear shouted with a voice like thunder.

    Perhaps because he was scolded by the black bear, Tie Xiaowei pulled his face down and shouted to the guards behind him: "Prepare your bows and arrows, shoot the fucking dead black bear, what kind of military master is this guy who is not a soldier?"  Damn it."
