882 Chapter 882 You want to rebel, I want to march
I walked along the road into the valley. Along the way, I only watched the surrounding green grass growing wildly, and it was thick and soft on the endless ground. I could hardly hear the sound when the horse's hooves trampled on.
There was an indescribable, sweet, and fishy smell filled the air, which made people disgusting.
After walking for a while, the smell became stronger and stronger. I vaguely saw that there were many corpses by the roadside, hidden in the dense grass, and the smell of blood and rotten smell filled the entire valley.
It was a tragic phenomenon after the war.
Along the river, the abundant water plants cover up the unbearable, but cannot cover up the blood flowing out along the river, presenting the war that once lived like purgatory here before us.
I just looked that, and my face turned pale. When I turned around, I saw Liu Qinghan holding Li'er in his arms, holding the reins in one hand, subconsciously blocking Li'er's face, blocking her vision. His action reminded me of the time in Shengjing, and I was also protecting Prince Yangchu like this, and I couldn't help but be grateful to him.
But, it's not time to relax now.
Bypassing the hill ahead, you will see a tent.
Nian Baoyu's terrain here is very dangerous. The surrounding mountains and ridges surrounded a huge valley in the middle. A river crossed the east and west, gathering a mirror-like lake inside. Pei Yuanfeng had been stationed by the lake before, but there were also many people and horses stationed in the surrounding mountain roads. But now it seems that his men have been completely cleaned up, and the people of the Dongchaga tribe are shrinking the encirclement bit by bit. Now, they should have surrounded the valley inside.
The more I left, the tighter my brows frowned.
The mountain roads here are winding and rugged. Even if you are here, you may not be able to figure out the terrain. Pei Yuanfeng's deployment of troops here is also attracted by this, but why is it cleaned up so clean?
This is obviously an advantage, but now it seems to be a disadvantage?
With such doubts and extremely heavy mood, we walked all the way forward and arrived at the entrance of their camp in a short while.
This is a huge camp with sharp fences erected on both sides, like the fangs of beasts, ready to fight the enemy at any time; the gate is four or five feet high, with watchtowers on both sides, with fully armed soldiers standing on it. As soon as we got off the horse, the gate slowly opened from the inside, making a long and dull sound. I saw a wide and deep avenue inside, leading to the largest tent. The soldiers lined up on both sides were all stern, without looking at each other, but their hands were all held on the hilt of the long sword, exuding a strong murderous aura.
As soon as we stood still, a team of soldiers immediately came over and led us in.
After entering the camp, a group of people came first, and placed the Eighteen Anyang Cavalry to the other side, and then asked us to meet their general. I thought about it and asked Liu Qinghan to stay with Li'er. He didn't say anything, but just hugged Li'er and followed those people quietly.
Seeing his back disappearing in front of me, I turned around and walked into the largest tent with Yuan Xiu.
As soon as you lift the door curtain, you can see the wind blowing dust and flying in the sunshine. The tent in front of you is wide and thick, but the light seems a little dark. Only this beam of light at the door is sprinkled on the ground and stretches to the deepest part of the tent.
Following the light, I slowly looked over and saw a burly man with a burly figure and beard sitting upright on the main seat in front of me.
The weather was very hot, and the man only put a piece of animal skin and fabric on his body. He didn't know what kind of jacket it was, revealing his strong muscles, his beards were thick and slightly curled. He could hardly see his facial features. He felt that this man was not young, at least at least fifty years old, but his age did not weaken his courage and might at all, especially his eyes, which were like hunting beasts, shining with brilliance and fierceness, and was particularly bright and energetic.
He stared at me like a black bear staring at his prey.
"Miss Yan's family?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, it seemed as if Qingkong suddenly made a thunderous thunder, which made people's ears buzz. I was shocked, but I calmed down quickly and stared at him for a while: "General Humuhan?"
He looked me up and down a few more times, cracked his mouth and smiled, revealing his white teeth: "I have heard of you for a long time."
"oh?"
I was a little surprised.
The name of the eldest lady of the Yan family is not a big deal except for its effectiveness in Shu, but it is actually not a big deal after Xichuan. I didn't expect that even the generals of the Eastern Chaga Division knew me.
I don't know if this is an honor.
Hu Muhan looked at me again, and his eyes were smiling, with a little exploration, and it seemed to be recalling something, which seemed a bit complicated.
I was not used to being seen like this, so I couldn't help but frown.
He smiled and said, "I heard that you married a rebel."
My heart moved and I looked back at Pei Yuanxiu.
Since he entered the tent, he had been very calm and looked around silently. When he heard this, he moved his eyes from the side, looked at Humuhan, and laughed: "I don't understand what the general said."
"Hahahaha," Humuhan burst out with a thunderous laugh, which made the whole tent tremble. He laughed and stood up and walked towards us. The man was already very strong when he sat down, and he stood up even more burly, as if he was standing in front of him. The fierce murderous aura on his body was particularly compelling. I couldn't help but frown slightly, and then I felt Pei Yuanxiu next to me pinch my wrist and pull me behind him.
Then, he went forward and met Humuhan.
Pei Yuanxiu is quite tall, but when he gets into him, he looks much shorter.
Hu Muhan said: "I don't like to beat around the bush when speaking. If you want to rebel, I want to march. If we are united, we will be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort!"
My breathing was suffocated.
What did he say?!
Rebellion? Advance?
My heart was stinged hard by these two words, and the haze that had been suppressing in my heart before suddenly rose.
Pei Yuanxiu stood in front of me, and I couldn't see the expression on his face. I just felt like he was smiling, and there was a little smile in his voice: "Where are you going to march?"
"Of course it's Central Plains!"
"Then, why did the general fight against the Shu soldiers at Nian Baoyuze?"
Hu Muhan smiled: "If the Shu soldiers are connected with us, we won't have to fight."
As he said that, Hu Muhan took a step to the side and looked at me standing behind Pei Yuanxiu. He was already pale: "Miss Yan, do you think so?"
The hand I was grabbed by Pei Yuanxiu was already covered in cold sweat, but I still barely made a "unfathomable" smile: "The general means--"
Humuhan looked at us and was about to speak, suddenly, a voice sounded from behind us-
"Our army entered the Central Plains, but was blocked in Hehuang, and there was a Luo Shi in the north. If the Shu army could cooperate with us, our two families would jointly send troops and advance from the southwest, they would be able to catch the Central Plains court off guard, and wait until that time-"
Pei Yuanxiu and I were both stunned for a moment, and hurriedly turned around and saw a man walking in from outside the tent.
The sun was shining on that person, outlining the same sturdy and tall outline. When he approached, we could see clearly that he was also a middle-aged man in his thirties, with a high nose and deep eyes, and his pupils were very light in color. He had a nearly transparent texture like amber in the sun. Compared to Humuhan, this person had a bit of sinister aura, especially those eyes, which made people feel uncomfortable when staring at people.
He walked to us and looked at Pei Yuanxiu again: "You are the lord of Jiangnan. If you march north again, is there any reason why you can't take it?"
Pei Yuanxiu frowned slightly: "You are—"
The man hooked his chin: "Be down, take the truth."
Take the truth!
When leaving Nian Baoyuze, Pei Yuanfeng mentioned this person that he was not a very outstanding general in the army of the Eastern Chaga Division, but this person is good at siegeing the city and fighting the stake. Pei Yuanfeng had said before that if Humuhan came, the situation might not be so bad. If the occupation really appeared, it means that the ambition of the Eastern Chaga Division was not only to fight in the northwest, but his third brother would be unable to sit steadily!
But what I didn't expect was-
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but hold Pei Yuanxiu's hand tightly.
As if he felt my horror and helplessness, Yuan Xiu glanced at me, said nothing, and still turned toward Yu Zhen: "Look for a long time."
"We have also heard of you for a long time."
"Hope is not infamous."
"Haha, what reputation depends on how people spread it. If you achieve great things, can someone spread your infamous reputation?"
Pei Yuanxiu's eyes sank, and after a while, he smiled: "It makes sense."
I grabbed his hand and almost spasm.
But he still didn't move.
At this time, both Dazhen and Humuhan turned to look at me: "Miss Yan, what do you think?"
My face was a little pale: "What... what do you think?"
Jason seemed to sneer, and when he looked at me, his eyes became deeper, and he said, "Miss Yan is so smart, he shouldn't not understand what we mean. Now our army has surrounded the Shu soldiers for three days. The reason why we haven't started a general attack is that we don't want to be completely enemy of Xichuan and don't want to consume too much power here. We still hope to jointly send troops with Xichuan."
“…”
"But, the general you are now really ungrateful."
“…”
"If you continue to fight like this, you will lose your troops in Xichuan and protect the Central Plains emperors. Why bother?"
Yuanfeng...
My heart was pounding heavily in my chest.
Just when my heart was full of chaos, Hu Muhan suddenly said, "Miss Yan, you Xichuan have been fighting against the court in the Central Plains for so many years. Now that you have the opportunity, you should seize it. There is an old saying here, don't make wedding dresses for others. Isn't that what you said?"
I couldn't listen to a word of his words.
I only looked at Yuan Xiu in front of me, and my heart trembled.
This is of course an opportunity.
It is an opportunity for anyone who opposes the court.
But what about him?
What would he think?
Just as I grabbed his fingers and was so cramped that I almost pinched his nails into his skin, Hu Muhan suddenly said, "You Xichuan had done wedding dresses back then. This time, are you going to repeat the mistakes of your parents?"
My head buzzed.
After a while, I slowly turned my head and looked at him, almost unable to believe my ears-
Chapter completed!
