My Chinese ancestors

Chapter 369 War Wind Hunting
  There is little rain in the northwest and the climate is dry. The winding fields, roads, and mountains and forests of soldiers and horses stretch for more than ten miles, stirring up the dust.

Beneath the banner that covers the sky and the sun is the Emperor's Forbidden Army composed of more than [-] Tiger Guards, Huwei, and Shenji Battalions, walking slowly in the middle of the huge marching team.

After entering May, the weather in the northwest became hot. Jia Xu couldn't stand the stuffy heat in the carriage, so he and Taoist Li walked slowly outside, muttering about cultivating their health.

Dian Wei and Xu Chu had taken off their armor as early as the morning, leaving their muscular or fat upper bodies bare, wiping the sweat on their faces, and guarding the imperial chariot, keeping their eyes on the surrounding foothills that were as brown as tombs.

The ground was rugged and bumpy, and the driving chariot was swaying forward, pulled by nine war horses. Because there was no one in the carriage, it seemed quiet. Su Chen listened to the cicadas chirping outside one after another, and as the carriage shook, Sitting on the big tiger-skin chair, he fell asleep.

The [-] Qi soldiers surrendered as the vanguard to cooperate with Ma Chao who was heading north. They were already attacking the city and plundering territory. They advanced for more than [-] miles in the southern part of Liang State, and three counties and nine counties surrendered.

Along the way, Su Chen hardly had to do anything. Even if Jia Xu did it for him, he would just sit on the chair and doze off like a useless person.

In the drowsy state, the wind howled faintly in my ears, and the dragon roared and panted.

Su Chen suddenly woke up. He heard the dragon's roar like an auditory hallucination, and thought that the First Emperor Ying Zheng had come out of the spiritual throne. He turned around and looked at the altar table in the back, where a spiritual statue of the emperor was sitting quietly on it.

"Ancestors of all emperors?"

Su Chen stood up and approached the altar table and called out to the emperors' tombs above. At this time, there was no real incense in the incense burner, and no one responded to him.

"Hearing hallucinations?"

Su Chen frowned and muttered, and was about to leave and return to the chair when a hot wind rushed in from outside, and another dragon roar sounded in his ears. This time he could really hear it clearly.

As if in a trance, he looked at the string of tokens hanging on the wall of the compartment. The original golden color of one of them was slowly fading away.

"Guan Yu?!"

Su Chen pushed aside a few tokens outside and saw the changed one with the word "Guan" engraved on it. There was some confusion and surprise on his face. He didn't expect that it was the dragon's roar that was caused by it.

With the two changes of Dian Wei and Lu Bu, Su Chen's first feeling was that Guan Yunchang must have encountered an incident that he was unwilling to accept.

"Get the map and bring the information related to the West Route Army!"

Su Chen watched as the token representing Guan Yu was fading from its golden color and turning into cyan. Like Lu Bu's token, his unique cloud and dragon patterns appeared on the edge.

Outside the carriage, upon hearing Su Chen's order, Wu Zixun hurriedly responded and led several clerks to a carriage at the back. There were several large boxes inside, and the time was marked on each box.

In the box labeled with the word "May", the clerk quickly found the letters from the Western Route Army in the recent period. Some of them were original documents, and some were re-copied and archived by the clerk.

Su Chen waited in the carriage for a while, and more than thirty pieces of information recording information about the West Route Army were presented. One piece often contained more than ten pieces of information, all from that day.

After flipping through the pages one by one, most of them contained information about Xia Houyuan leading troops to attack. Only a few of them said that Guan Yu was leading the camp to station in Jimai City to ensure logistics while taking care of the soldiers who were acclimatized.

Jimai City?
  Seeing the name of this city, Su Chen turned his head and looked at the cyan token on the wall, and he almost understood what was going on.

Maicheng...

This was the place where Guan Yu was defeated and captured, and the hero met his end, but Su Chen couldn't help but laugh, "This Liang Kingdom really gave me a pillow and a footstool to Guan Junhou, haha!"

I just don't know what changes will happen to Guan Yu after his token is promoted and changed. Now that Su Chen knows about Lu Bu and Dian Wei, they are even more exaggerated than before, and they have completely exceeded their impression of the character's abilities.

The stronger the better, and I still have a large group of generals waiting in my hands.

I just don’t know if people like Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Xun Yu, and Wang Lang can be promoted like this, and what changes will happen.

Thinking about it makes me look forward to it.

After Su Chen figured this out, he was in a good mood. He currently had three promotion and color-changing tokens in his hand, as well as Li Xuanba and Xiang Yu, two tokens with special colors when they appeared on the scene.

I don't know if that destined person can survive ten rounds in their hands.

Thinking about it, he got up and went back to the altar table, lit the incense candles, and paid homage to the emperors and ancestors to make them happy.

In front of the offering table, where the green smoke was curling up, a statue of a saint gradually came to life, and sounds were heard rising and falling from the statue.

"It's so boring down there. It's more interesting to see the real world. By the way, where did it go?!" Zhao Kuangyin's spiritual tablet was the first to speak. "Did you take down the Emperor of Liang?"

"Who are you beating?" Zhao Kuangyi followed his brother's lead and extended his head out of the spiritual throne, then retracted it. Seeing that there was no other emperor outside, he quickly stretched out his head again and glanced at Wu Zetian's spiritual throne, "Meiniang! "

"Don't forget to beat me!" Zhu Yuanzhang's spiritual tablet spit at him!
  "...It's not your mother-in-law, why are you making any noise?!"

As soon as Zhao Kuangyi shouted, his bun was grabbed by Li Shimin who suddenly appeared, dragged out of the spiritual throne, and pressed to the ground. He raised his head and glanced at Zhao Kuangyin, who nodded. Li Shimin raised his hand and punched Zhao Kuangyi. face.

"Father, let me help you!"

Li Zhi's soul popped out, 'Ah! ’ With a loud shout, Zhao Kuangyi hit Zhao Kuangyi’s abdomen like a mountain.

"Brother...help me!"

Zhao Kuangyi looked towards the altar table. Zhao Da glanced at him over there and moved the spiritual position in one direction, pretending not to see it.

"Good fight, haha!" Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang Le's body moved back and forth, and he did not forget to ask Su Chen: "What's the matter with Changsheng waking us up? Are you going to throw dice?"

Su Chen cupped his hands and said with a smile: "That's not true. The generals in my hands haven't been properly arranged yet. We'll wait until after the Liang Kingdom is defeated. The reason why I came here to offer incense is because of Guan Yu, General Guan's token promotion changes. I know the color, and I want to tell Uncle Liu Huang about it."

Cao Cao has recovered, but Liu Bei has not made any move yet, but regardless of whether the other party can hear it now, he wants to tell Emperor Zhaolie this news.

"Guan Yunchang has also emerged from the shadow of the past?"

When Guan Yu was mentioned, Cao Cao was naturally the first to speak. He was even more excited than Su Chen. As soon as he came out of the spiritual throne, his face was full of smiles. He put his hands on his waist and walked to the curtain door of the carriage, looking at the bright sun outside. He shook his head and sighed happily.

"As expected of the general Gu has chosen!"

A wisp of green smoke floated out of the soul of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and turned into a smoke-like human figure. He also nodded: "What King Wei said was that when I was in the Golden Palace, I saw General Guan from a distance. He had a mysterious appearance and majestic appearance. I If I had this group of generals around me back then..."

"Ok?"

Cao Cao turned around and pressed the Yitian Sword. His face, which was still smiling, suddenly turned cold-eyed: "Your Majesty, do you want to rebel?"

Su Chen: "..."

Well, recently the King of Wei not only learned hot words from below, but also learned some jokes.

"Ha ha!"

Cao Pi, who floated out of his spiritual throne, saw Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty being glared at by his father, trembling with fear like a mouse seeing a cat. Then, Cao Cao turned his gaze away, and Cao Pi's smile instantly faded, and he trembled with fear.

"King Wei, be kind to your son. Cao Pi is also an emperor after all..."

"Hmph, I'm already being merciful. I didn't even look at Liu Xuande, so I grabbed my son and threw him to the ground."

On the altar table, Liu Chan's body exclaimed: "King Wei, the person involved is still here, can you please stop talking."

"Did Meng De speak ill of people behind their backs again?" At this moment, a faint green smoke rose from the spiritual tablet with Liu Bei's name engraved on it. Liu Bei slowly walked out of the green smoke, his figure still a little thin.

"Uncle!"

Su Chen respects every emperor, and Liu Bei is no exception. Moreover, the emperor also came from scratch. Although he is not as good as Zhu Yuanzhang, he is not bad. What is even more admirable is that the opponent has been defeated repeatedly, starting from Hebei. Lost all the way to Jingzhou.

After more than ten years of losing, I am not discouraged. If it were anyone else, who could do it?
  In particular, there is no luxurious camp like Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, who only relies on Guan, Zhang, Zhao, Mi Zhu, Mi Fang, Sun Qian, Jian Yong and others.

The key point is that these people still insist on Liu Bei, which shows his personality charm.

At this time, Liu Bei flicked his wide sleeves and swept away the green smoke around him. He came over to greet Su Chen with a humble and gentle expression, "Congratulations on Changsheng's ascension to the throne of God."

"Thank you, Uncle Emperor, for congratulating me!"

While Su Chen returned the gift to him, he also told him about how Guan Yu got out of the haze of defeating Maicheng in Jimai City and the token turned blue.

"This...should be my second brother's...should be the destiny he deserves!"

Liu Bei pursed his lips and said this happily. The next moment, Cao Cao next to him hooked his shoulder and floated out of the car.

"Mr.

Liu Chan: "..."

……

The sun was shining brightly outside, the sky was as clear as blue, and there was not a trace of cloud in sight.

On Gudang Mountain, more than four hundred miles north of the capital of Liang Kingdom, a troop of five thousand cavalrymen were running densely. Countless tumbling horse hooves raised dust into the sky, and their thin armors rattled in the tremors. .

Soon, they began to branch out here and spread in the dense forests of the mountains.

This is the trekking cavalry of Liang State.

After Emperor Tuoba Kui of the Liang Dynasty reformed the military system, he recruited elite cavalry from various southern tribes to form the cavalry. Both men and horses had experience in traveling through mountains and ridges. The iron armor and armor leaves were woven in sections and covered with leather jackets, which was light and durable. Has a defensive effect.

Moreover, every trekking cavalryman is an excellent hunter, has a reputation in the tribe, can hunt tigers, leopards and wolves alone, and must also have skillful riding skills.

As one of the commanders of this cavalry, Goli Chuishan is extremely proud. He is one of the earliest commanders of this cavalry. To become a commander, he not only possesses extraordinary bravery, but also has superb riding skills, and is able to compete with others. The Xirong people had made meritorious deeds during the war, and more importantly, the Quli tribe was the direct descendant of the emperor.

This time we brought the trekking cavalry out, firstly to polish the trekking cavalry, and secondly to practice their mutual cooperation.

And the third one was to let them see blood on the emperor's order.

However, the order also told him not to be reluctant to fight. He made a sneak attack on horseback, stunned the Xia army once, and then withdrew immediately.

"This is not a difficult task... It's a pity that the people of Xia cannot be made aware of the reputation of the trekking cavalry!"

While he was thinking on horseback, scouts came back in front of the running horse team. These scouts were all experienced hunters in the mountains, so they were perfect candidates for scouts.

When the scout came back, he also brought some news. Scouts from the Xia Kingdom were discovered one after another in front, which meant that the Xia Kingdom had troops stationed nearby.

Judging from the message, there are still several battalions of soldiers and horses supervising the grain!
  "Pass my order to the trekking cavalry in other directions to encircle the Xia people's military camp!"

Ling Qi galloped out.

Going to Lichui Mountain, he led his two thousand cavalry out of the difficult mountain forest, picked up the bushes at the foot of the mountain, and relied on experienced scouts to sing the songs of birds and trek with the other two groups of one thousand five hundred people. Cavalry Liaison.

Gradually they moved towards the camp and surrounded them.

But it was a pity that the Xia Kingdom military camp opposite seemed to be extremely alert and quickly sensed his intention to encircle and attack in a sneak attack.

The soldiers of the Xia Kingdom in the camp quickly deployed their defenses, closed the camp gate, and blocked the horses in front of and behind the camp gate. There were even a few more sentry towers than ordinary military camps.

From a distance, toward Richuishan, one saw the opponent's general. A general with a long beard, wearing iron armor and half a black robe, holding a big gun and standing behind the gate. The single eye on his face was staring outside. of trekking cavalry.

The opponent seemed to have noticed him, and led his troops directly towards Richui Mountain. The other two trekking cavalry also followed and attacked from two directions.

The two sides met across the fence of the military camp.

They drew their bows at each other and launched a shower of arrows, but neither of them took any advantage. After all, the Xia soldiers in the camp were in formation and relied on the fence to withstand most of the arrows.

As for Liang Guo's trekking cavalry who were shooting arrows in the field, they were constantly maneuvering and were not easy to be shot, unless they were extremely lucky and were taken care of by Liu Ya.

"A bunch of barbarians really think I am Xiahou Dun back then!"

The single-eyed Xiahou stood in the formation behind the gate with a spear. He had a bad temper, but that was many years ago. Since he was transferred to the rear by his clan brother Cao Cao to control grain and grass, or to cultivate farmland, his old temper gradually disappeared.

However, he still felt unwilling in his heart. He wanted to prove that he could be as successful as his brother Xia Houyuan in commanding the army.

Just when Xiahou Dun was thinking about whether to lead five hundred light cavalry out of the camp, the Liang cavalry outside roared away.

He immediately asked the horse to be sent to Gudang Mountain about the fact that he was almost attacked today, and Xiahou Dun noted the differences of this Liang cavalry in the letter.

It was half a day before the news reached Gudang Mountain.

When Xia Houyuan, Qin Qiong and others here received the news, there was also a letter delivered from the rear. When they saw that three Liang tribe soldiers and horses had detoured from both sides of them to Jimai City, they were so frightened that they almost withdrew their troops. aid.

Fortunately, the following content made them feel at ease.

"My second brother, with [-] cavalry, defeated [-] beggar soldiers from the Liang Kingdom?" Zhang Fei came back from the front line. When he heard Xia Houyuan talking about the content of the letter, his eyes widened in shock. After a while, he suddenly said Holding the fist in the palm of his hand, he laughed heartily: "My second brother is really up to date, haha!"

"Guan Yu presided over Jingzhou and unified the whole country. It's not surprising that he has such ability!" Li Tong's soldiers and horses held him back, but now that he is strong and has elite cavalry, how can he repeat the mistakes of Maicheng!"

Xu Huang in the tent imitated Guan Yu, stroking his chin and smiling silently, while Le Jin snorted, picked up the iron mask and put it on his face, picked up the big gun and walked away.

"Look, Wen Qian is very motivated!"

Xia Houyuan stood up and clenched his fists. "Everyone, Guan Yu has given us a good start, and we can't let the generals of the Tang Army underestimate us, right? Take Gudangkou and kill most of the Liang Kingdom!"

"Hey, hey, we're not looking down on you!" Cheng Yaojin waved his hand quickly.

The heroes of the late Han Dynasty in the tent stood up one after another and accepted the promise. Zhang Fei was the loudest among them. Everyone was so shocked that they covered their ears and cursed at him.

However, the account is still filled with murderous intent!
  At the same time, when the five thousand trekking cavalry returned to the capital of Liang State and reported their training results to Emperor Tuoba Kui, the battle reports from Jimai City were being sent to the imperial city at a speed of hundreds of miles.

Tuoba Kui, who was eating, pursed his lips and turned the bowl in his hand upside down on the table!

"A bunch of trash!"

He cursed.
