Chapter five hundred and seventy-six out of the mountains
On August 6, 1985, the Nanchuan Army and Zhenxi Army, which crossed the Taikong Mountains for several weeks, finally walked out of the dangerous mountains of poisonous insects and beasts, and the vanguard of troops led by Gangyu arrived at the eastern edge of Xuehe Province.&1t;/p>
"General! Someone is smoking! Someone is smoking!" The young scout climbed at the top of the thick trees, looked at the blue smoke rising from afar, and hurriedly shouted down excitedly.&1t;/p>
In the jungle, more than three thousand ragged and thin Nanchuan soldiers were resting. After hearing the scouts' shouts, they stood up together.&1t;/p>
"Did you see clearly?" Gangyu was even more excited and asked loudly.&1t;/p>
The young scout excitedly replied: "General, I'm wrong, blue smoke rises in the northwest direction."&1t;/p>
Hearing that the scout was sure that after traveling through the jungle for several weeks, the Nanchuan soldiers who had reached the verge of collapse burst into huge cheers.&1t;/p>
"Out, northwest direction!" Gangyu no longer cared about rest and hurriedly shouted to continue moving forward. There must be people living in places where fireworks were rising. The army that had been wandering in the mountains for several weeks now urgently needed supplies and urgently needed to get out of this disgusting mountain, which devoured too many of their companions.&1t;/p>
Although they saw the rising smoke in the northwest direction, there were thorns everywhere in the jungle, and the turbulent streams blocked the way from time to time. They had appeared in the blue smoke at noon and arrived at the edge of the forest in the evening.&1t;/p>
This is a quiet village, located on the western foot of the Taichung Mountains. Facing the sudden burst of thousands of soldiers like savages, the men in the village were all nervous, holding wooden bows and sticks to defend the village.&1t;/p>
Seeing the other party's misunderstanding, Gangyu hurriedly brought a few Nanchuan soldiers who had no weapons to contact and inquire about the situation.&1t;/p>
"You really cross the ancient mountains?" The elder of the village looked at the ragged steel feathers in military uniforms with suspicion.&1t;/p>
Gangyu laughed and hurriedly explained: "Old man, what am I lying to you? We are the Nanchuan Army, under the command of Marshal Lin. He was defeated in the Far East and was chased by the Hanhai people. He had to escape into the mountains. He had only been gone for a few weeks, and we thought we would never get out."&1t;/p>
Hearing that this savage-like army really came out of the mountains, the young people in the village all showed admiration. Even if the most powerful hunters in their village dared not go deep into the mountains fifty miles, fearing that they would be eaten by wolves, insects, tigers and leopards, although this army looked in a mess, they crossed the ancient mountains, which was never seen in history.&1t;/p>
The misunderstanding between the two sides was resolved. People in the village admired the Nanchuan Army very much, and Gangyu also successfully learned about the situation here.&1t;/p>
This village belongs to the eastern part of Xuehe Province, which is more than 800 miles away from their Nanchuan Province. Although it is long to go home, Gangyu and the others are already extremely excited to be able to walk out of the mountains.&1t;/p>
"Go and tell General Mingyang that we have walked out of the mountains!" Gangyu was excited and did not forget the main force behind him, and told the rear force this good news.&1t;/p>
The army walked in the mountains for several weeks, always advancing in the vast forest. The food had already been eaten up. The army completely relied on eating wild animals and wild vegetables and fruits. Compared with the lack of food, the soldiers were most sad that they could not see the hope of getting out of the mountains. Many people were mentally broken and even went crazy.&1t;/p>
Faced with sluggish morale and the vast mountains, the generals were under tremendous pressure. They did not want to destroy these soldiers in the mountains. They could only organize propaganda teams to constantly encourage the soldiers on the verge of collapse and encourage them to continue moving forward.&1t;/p>
"We have walked out of the mountains! The snow river province is ahead!" The hoarse voice of the messenger's death echoed in the mountains. After hearing the news, the exhausted and desperate soldiers burst into cheers. The mountains and forests were shaking. Thinking of the soldiers who died on the road, many people cried with joy.&1t;/p>
Seeing the cheering soldiers and their excited faces, the commander of Nanchuan Army Mingyang and the commander of Zhenxi Army Zhan Ge looked at each other, and saw the joy and relaxation in each other's eyes. They had taken too much pressure along the way. Now the stone hanging in their hearts finally fell to the ground, and they finally brought the army out of the mountains.&1t;/p>
The Xuehe Province is ahead. The exhausted soldiers rekindled hope in their hearts. Although they were exhausted and supported each other, they also arrived at the village where Gangyu and the others arrived first.&1t;/p>
A hundred thousand troops crossed the ancient mountains, facing the harsh natural environment and the encirclement and blocking of Hanhai's army, there were many corpses along the way, and in the end, less than 30,000 people were able to get out of the mountains, and 70,000 were buried in the mountains for various reasons.&1t;/p>
All the soldiers were able to walk out of the mountains alive, and they felt that they had walked through the gates of hell. They were excited and excited.&1t;/p>
All the food stored in the small village was purchased by the Nanchuan army. When the soldiers were late for hot food again, many of them burst into tears. It was not easy to be able to walk out of the mountains alive.&1t;/p>
The army did not stay on the edge of the forest for long. After all, the mountain people here also rely on the mountains to make a living. Faced with the 30,000 hungry army, there was a serious shortage of supplies. In just one day, the food from more than a dozen villages around were purchased by the Nanchuan Army.&1t;/p>
After a little rest, the army bid farewell to these enthusiastic mountain people and began to advance to the main city of Snow River Province, Giant Rock City. They have not had news about the hinterland of the dynasty for two months. They urgently need to arrive in a city to learn about the latest news.&1t;/p>
After such a long journey, the Nanchuan Army and the Zhenxi Army have experienced the sharing of life and death. The relationship between the two sides has reached the point of being brothers, so now the two sides have become one and move forward together.&1t;/p>
More than 30,000 troops suddenly appeared in the Xuehe Province and marched towards the Giant Rock City in a mighty manner. The towns along the way were frightened and thought that the rebels had attacked. For a moment, the Xuehe Province was in chaos.&1t;/p>
Feng Ziguo, the governor of Xuehe Province, who received the emergency report, hurriedly mobilized the garrison troops from the entire province to Jushi City, preparing to kill the sudden rebel army in the cradle.&1t;/p>
The army led by Mingyang took three days to arrive at the Giant Rock City in the Xuehe Province, but what we greeted them was not the fine wine and food, but the swords, bows and crossbows.&1t;/p>
Looking at the crossbow arrows with cold light on the heavy city wall, Mingyang frowned. He didn't know what happened, but he brought the pioneer general Steel Feather.&1t;/p>
"Brother Gangyu, what's going on? Have you not explained our identity?" Mingyang asked with a frown.&1t;/p>
Gangyu replied with grievance: "I said it, but they just won't let us enter the city."&1t;/p>
Mingyang was puzzled. Logically speaking, they showed their identity. They were also dynasty troops. The defenders of Giant Rock City should not be hostile, but the current situation is that they are facing a great enemy.&1t;/p>
Mingyang was about to come forward to ask for the reason in person, the scout rushed to report.&1t;/p>
"General, there are at least tens of thousands of garrison troops appearing on our left and right wings, surrounding us, and seemingly wanting to surround us."&1t;/p>
"It's really interesting," Mingyang murmured after hearing the scout's report. As a dynasty army, the people from Xuehe Province not only did not receive friendly receptions, but instead faced each other, which confused the soldiers of Nanchuan.&1t;/p>
Now that we have just walked out of the mountains, the troops are weak. Facing the surrounding tens of thousands of garrison troops, Mingyang does not want them to be in a dangerous situation no matter what their purpose is.&1t;/p>
Jushi City is a city in the Xuehe Province. Although Mingyang and others need to go to the city for rest and rest, they cannot attack even if others do not open the city gate. After all, they belong to the dynasty army. If siege is no different from rebellion, Mingyang does not want to cause trouble before things are clarified.&1t;/p>
"Send the order and we continue to move forward." Mingyang immediately led the army to continue to move forward, hoping to get rid of the garrison troops surrounded by both wings.&1t;/p>
"The garrison troops surrounding the two wings?" asked the Sith.&1t;/p>
"As long as they don't cause trouble, they don't care about them. If they are really hostile to us, our Nanchuan Army is not a vegetarian."&1t;/p>
