Liu Song Hanque

Chapter 51
Following the upstream of the big river, Liu Yizhen and others walked for several days before arriving at "Xitao".

Originally, Liu Yizhen had harvested "cotton", so he wanted to do some shopping here. Unfortunately, his luck had run out, and there were no valuable crops waiting for Liu Yizhen to take away.

And the news of Helian Bobo's withdrawal has also spread to "Xitao", which made Liu Yizhen and others breathe a sigh of relief.

"The siege of Guanzhong has been lifted, it looks like we can go back!"

If Helian Bobo is still blocked in Guanzhong, Liu Yizhen and others want to go back, it is completely a dream.

Everyone was overjoyed at the thought of finally going back to Guanzhong.

They have been in Saibei for more than a month.

Even the New Year's Eve is spent outside the Great Wall, if you don't go back, I'm afraid some soldiers will really go crazy.

And because the food outside the Great Wall is basically only meat, let alone vegetables.This has caused almost everyone in the Jin army to be constipated, and it is miserable every time they go to the toilet.

"The last section of the road! Be careful!"

Next, Wang Maide gave two routes, one is to go directly from Helan Mountain to Xiaoguan, which is the fastest route.

Another one is to detour to Shangyu and enter the customs along the Qinling Mountains from the west.

Of these two routes, one is fast but dangerous, and the other is remote but safe, which requires Liu Yizhen to carefully consider.

Most soldiers definitely prefer the first way, after all, it can save a lot of effort.

But Liu Yizhen, Shen Tianzi and other generals chose the second option.

"I'm not sure what's going on with Xiaoguan now. If I investigate carefully or Helian Bobo simply seals off the pass, it will be a dead end."

"As for Shangbi, our soldiers are stationed there, and there are no checkpoints on the road. As long as you reach Shangbi, you will be safe."

In the end, Liu Yizhen made a decision and went the second way.

"Go to the market to exchange some things. We must try our best to avoid the barbarian tribe in the future, so as not to make them suspicious."

Everyone readily accepts orders, and it's time to persevere if they can persist, and persist if they can't.

Perhaps at the last moment, everyone let down their vigilance.

When a soldier of the Jin army was exchanging food and daily necessities with a Huxia herdsman, he actually took out a huge sea pearl from Helian Bobo Nekuli as payment.

And so the soldier in Haizhu still had a big bag, which made the Hu Xia herdsman's eyes straight, and then he became greedy.

So in the middle of the night, the herdsman quietly called a few people to sneak into the ranks of the Jin army to kill people and rob goods.

But the Jin army is an elite, how could it be possible for a few herdsmen to touch him?
Although the herdsmen were solved in a few strokes, the death of the herdsmen also attracted more people's attention.

Liu Yizhen, who was still sleeping in the middle of the night, was woken up. After learning about the situation, Liu Yizhen quickly ordered the army to move forward.

Don't be afraid of [-], just be afraid of what.

The life of herdsmen is also life.

Don't think that Hu Xia's regime doesn't care about the population. If a serious herdsman dies, there will be officials to investigate. Once the attention is paid to Liu Yizhen and others, it will be over!
It turned out that Liu Yi was right.

Soon after Liu Yizhen and others left, a 5000-man Huxia cavalry set out from behind.

different from before.

Since Helan Mountain could inquire about the news of Helian Bobo's withdrawal, he must also be able to find out the reason for Helianbobo's withdrawal.

In this case, Hu Xia, a team of unknown origin, will inevitably doubt whether it is the Jin army that disrupted Hu Xia's rear.

Liu Yizhen and the others wanted to rest for a while after running dozens of miles overnight, but they were forced to continue running by the pursuers behind them.

"It seems that the other party is insisting on us!"

Liu Yi, who was riding wildly on cotton, was really helpless.

It happened that an accident happened on the last section of the road, which is really annoying.

Hu Xia's soldiers in the rear yelled, and occasionally a few arrows were shot at Liu Yizhen and others, forcing the Jin army to speed up a little bit.

After chasing me like this for nearly half a day, the horses on both sides were so tired that they started to foam at the mouth.

Liu Yizhen looked at the sluggish cotton under his crotch, then looked at the same tired soldiers, and could only shout: "Everyone! Going forward is Longshang! There are all our people there! Just rush over and go home Already!"

Come back home
This belief made the soldiers of the Jin army barely regain some fighting spirit.

At this time, they didn't care about the horses. Many soldiers directly stabbed their own horses' buttocks with their sharp blades, squeezing their last strength.

After speeding up again, the Huxia cavalry behind began to curse, and finally stopped chasing and began to rest.

This also gave the Jin army time to breathe.

For the next five days, both sides chased to the limit in this way before they could breathe a sigh of relief.

The difference is that there are more and more people chasing Hu Xia, which seems to mean a wheel battle.This also led to the closer distance between the Jin army and Hu Xia's chasing troops.

"Wang Maide, how long is it until Shanggui!"

In just five days, Liu Yizhen was already haggard. His originally handsome appearance had now turned gray, with a layer of dry skin on his mouth, and his bright and translucent skin had also turned dull.

Not only Liu Yizhen, but most of the Jin army at this time looked like this.It is really because they have been tortured and exhausted physically and mentally by fleeing for the past few days.

"Hurry up! There are still forty miles left!"

Wang Maide was not feeling well either, he had lost a lot of weight, and he had two dark circles under his eyes, which was very funny.

He understands that other people still have a way to survive if they are caught by Hu Xia. If he is caught, he will basically die.So at this time, he was very focused.

Liu Yizhen didn't speak anymore, he had to bend down and gallop his horse.

Now people have reached their limits, and horses have also reached their limits.

If this kind of suicidal raid is not stopped, some not-so-good horses will be exhausted sooner or later.

Liu Yizhen and others ran forward, but the Hu Xia cavalry behind them were getting closer.

Even their bows and arrows could reach Liu Yizhen's side, if they were not careful, they would be shot and fell off the horse.

"Hold on a little longer!"

Liu Yizhen raised his head and looked not far away, he could vaguely see the outline of the city.

Closer, closer.

The hope of the Jin army's survival seems to be increasing, but this also makes the pursuers even more crazy.

At this time, an arrow suddenly flew past Liu Yizhen's cheek, and a string of blood sprayed from Liu Yizhen's face.

"Duke Guiyang!"

"Don't worry about me, just charge me!"

There was no time to take care of such minor injuries, Liu Yizhen only had eyes for the city in the distance.

"This is the territory of the Great Jin Dynasty! Who are you?"

"Stop talking nonsense! I am Shen Tianzi! Prepare to defend against the enemy!"

The defenders on the city wall were either from Wang Zhen'e or from Shen Tianzi, but no matter who they were, they must all know Shen Tianzi.

After the soldiers on the city wall found out that it was Shen Tianzi, they hurriedly set up their crossbows, and fired randomly at the Hu Xia cavalry behind them, forcing them to stop.

And Liu Yizhen and others finally rushed into the city gate, laughing loudly for the rest of their lives.

They are back in Guanzhong!
