Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty-fifth Returning Hearts Like Arrows, Killing Intentions

Chapter 535: Returning is like an arrow, killing intention

When he went there, he checked the military preparations of various forts along the border wall, or stayed or conducted in depth. Even if he was just a quick look, he still took a lot of time along the way. Xu Xun didn't have that much trouble when he returned. He still passed the city without entering, wandered day and night, and no longer walked along the border post road, but the official road in the hinterland of the border town. Therefore, he only selected thirty guards to travel to the post, traveling about 300 miles a day, sleeping for only three hours a day, and other moments were on the road. Although this speed was not as fast as four hundred miles a day, these particularly urgent military documents were already quite amazing. When he spent seven or eight days and finally entered the southern entrance of Juyongguan on that afternoon, he was exhausted and breathed a sigh of relief.

Although there are many explanations for entering the pass, for now, if you enter Juyong Pass, you will be really going home soon. With less than 300 miles from Xuanfu to the capital, he set out from the post station outside Xuanfu City before the hour of Mao today. It depends on the situation. Of course, even if the city gate is closed, he must enter the city even if he sits in a hanging basket!

Guangou in Juyongguan is the famous Jundu Xing among the eight passes of Taihang. Although the eight scenic spots of Yanjing are added by Li Dongyang's wonderful poems, the autumn wind in the south and the rain in the eastern suburbs have been added to the ten scenic spots of Yanjing, Juyong Diecui is still among the ten scenic spots and is well-known. After passing the North Pass, walking in the green Guangou on both sides. Even when it was noon and the temperature inevitably gradually rose, Xu Xun still felt a little relaxed and happy, and couldn't help but slow down.

When he was slow, others naturally followed him and refused to mention it. Cao Mi was still in Ningxia this time. At this moment, Cao Qian came with him. Seeing Xu Xun looking up at the mountains and trees on both sides thoughtfully, he said, "Sir, this place has been a place that military strategists have fought for since ancient times. When the Mongols destroyed Jin, they entered this pass. Later, the founding of the Ming Dynasty was the Juyong Pass, which was rebuilt by the King of Zhongshan and Kaiping. Before, we checked the military equipment when we passed here, but it was much better than the fortresses on each side."

"It's in the Kinki. If you don't even do the superficial skills that fool us, it's unreasonable. What's more,..." Xu Xun remembered that after the Battle of Yutailing two years ago, Wang Shouren had gone to Juyongguan to rectify his military equipment, and remembered that he had been sent to Longchangyi, Guizhou, and his father Wang Hua also moved to Nanjing. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Just as he was slightly dazed, Jiang Bin suddenly rode his horse and galloped over.

"Sir, this road seems to be something wrong." Jiang Bin saw Cao Qian frowning at him, but he didn't care, and said in a heavy tone, "This road is the main road from the northwest of the capital. On weekdays, cars and horses should be coming and going in a constant stream. But after we came out of Juyong Pass, the road exceeded many cars and horses that left for the capital early in the morning, but almost all the cars and horses that came were invisible. However, when we entered the pass, no one mentioned what happened before."

When Jiang Bin said that, Xu Xun, who had just thought of entering Juyongguan, was the capital, immediately woke up this point, and Cao Qian was even more solemn. He didn't even wait for Xu Xun to speak and immediately suggested: "Sir, since Jiang Guerrilla said that, there are two ways now, one is to send people to explore the way forward, and the other is to immediately return to Juyongguan and ask for more troops to escort us back to Beijing. I suggest that you use the latter method. After all, there are only more than 30 people in this trip, and it is unwise to divide the troops rashly."

Whether it is Jiang Bin or Cao Qian, even though one has been with him for several months and the other has been with him for a year, Xu Xun naturally trusts their judgment. He is always in love with his own heart, but because of his impatience, he is not worth the loss. In addition, he had intentionally exposed a loophole and let the country fly for a while before, and the taste was already shocking. Now he really doesn't want to try it for a second time, so he hesitated for a moment and said immediately: "Okay, turn around and return to Juyongguan!"

The sides of the valley are steep and steep, and now the weather is a lush season, so it is extremely easy to hide a person. (--net.) Therefore, when a man who was ambushing the mountain and looking at the wind found that the group turned their horses and galloped back and forth, he couldn't help but be stunned and hurriedly used a bronze mirror to report the message. But when the group was so stupid that he knew that he would not be able to catch up with it this time. For a moment, the forest was filled with lightning, and after sending the message, Bai Ying on the temporary inspection checkpoint at the entrance of the valley saw the reflection in the forest, even when he faced the many intercepted chariots and horses and officials before, his heart suddenly became sank.

How could Xu Xun and his group suddenly turn back? Where did they reveal their flaws? If they move forward a little further, they can blow up the rocks and close the back road and catch turtles in a jar. It seems difficult now!

"Dear fellow villagers, the fallen trees and rocks on the official road can be cleaned up in a while. Please wait patiently for a while!"

Listening to the tall and thin patrolman loudly yelling to appease the chariots and horsemen from the capital, Bai Ying thought about it and finally made up his mind. After the successful alliance in Baiyangdian, he was certainly regarded as the leader, but it was still far from the goal of gathering the men who made a living on the knife into a rope. What is even more incredible is that Feng, the big sword in Matou Village, suddenly rose sharply. He thought it was just a mob, but these people actually successively annexed many loud horse thieves from several neighboring prefectures and counties, and then directly issued a letter of war to Yang Hu. If Yang Hu's proposal was followed, he should have solved the bandits who were in the way. But now Xu Xun is about to arrive in the capital. If he goes back safely, he will not have such an opportunity in the future.

Throughout history, there have been countless civil uprisings initiated by the White Lotus Sect, but the only thing that really shakes the world is the end of the Yuan Dynasty. After all, it is the general trend. Now Liu Jin is nepotism and changes the old system, and the world is full of complaints. Whether it is provoking two tigers to fight, or the people who are truly unable to control Liu Jin in the court will inevitably be even more corrupt, and it is not impossible to sweep the world at that time!

Therefore, he slowly walked to the sweaty inspector and whispered: "Inspector Chai, there may be people blocked on the road here and cannot move. Why don't I take people to inform me and tell them not to be anxious. I also asked Inspector Chai and I to write with me, so I could go to Juyongguan on the way and make it clear to the guards that they would send troops and pack up quickly."

"Okay, okay, thank you for your righteousness!"

The tall and thin inspector was originally entangled in his territory that such a bad thing happened. He was complained about the whole morning and his scalp was numb. At this moment, he was glad that such a walking Taoist priest You Fang discovered it early, and now he was able to clear it up quickly. At the same time, he was worried about how to report this matter back. He naturally nodded to the proposal of this enthusiastic Taoist priest You Fang. After Bai Ying wrote the handwritten letter and handed it over, he opened his voice and began to comfort the carriage and horses that he had stopped.

He leaped through dozens of trees and the rocks rolling on the official road, and walked forward not far. Bai Yingshun successfully met with the people who had previously been installed in the dense forests on both sides. This time Bai Ying did not intend to do it himself, but at this time, he was asking the whole story and judging whether Xu Xun and others found anything or something else. In short, they turned back to Juyongguan. After a long time, he ordered the others to retreat together. He actually took his legs and walked towards Juyongguan with big strides.

Bai Ying has been practicing qi and martial arts since childhood. Although he is fifty years old, he looks like a fairy-like and a sensation. At this moment, there are already many cars and horses on the way east from Juyongguan. Whenever someone sees him taking this step, he will be as good as others' two or three steps, and his face is not blushing or breathing, most people think that this is a land god. When people stop, they bow their heads and bow their heads, and then they hurriedly thank them.

I don’t know how long I walked, Bai Ying suddenly stopped and then knelt down on one knee and pressed his ear against the road for a while. Then he stood up and stood calmly in the middle of the road. Soon, the sound of horse hooves came from far and near, and in a moment, bursts of smoke and dust rose from the distance of the official road.

Xu Xun and his group suddenly returned to Juyongguan, which scared Wu Shou, the general of Juyongguan. After hearing what Jiang Bin and Cao Qian said, he did not dare to be negligent at all. He immediately sent out three hundred soldiers to Xu Xun's escort and sent a team to lead the team. Along the way, Jiang Bin and Cao Qian both increased their vigilance. Even Xu Xun looked at the mountain roads on both sides thoughtfully from time to time. This speed was naturally incomparable to the speed of lightning that had been galloping 300 miles a day. Therefore, after the current team reported that someone was blocking the road in the center of the road, as the team stopped changing, Xu Xun felt that a group of guards had firmly blocked him.

"Who dares to block the way for the imperial envoy Ping Beibo to return to Beijing?"

"I, on the order of the inspector Chai, the former inspector, specially went to Juyongguan to report the letter. For some reason, the rocks and trees fell on the official road, cutting off the access, so that even the carriages and horses from the capital in the east could not pass. The inspection department was cleaning up urgently, but the project was progressing quite slowly, so I asked me to come and tell him. This was the handwritten letter of inspector Chai."

Juyongguan mainly guarded against the enemy in the northwest. Although there were some garrisons in the Guangou area, there were not many people, mainly in the Nankou and Beiguan area. At this moment, when a personal soldier took over the letter taken out by the old Taoist and immediately delivered it to Xu Xun, he took out the letter and saw that the signature was indeed for the Juyongguan general Wu Shou, so he thoughtfully handed it to the commander-in-chief who was escorting him next to him. After asking a few questions, he went to the front with a group of guards.

After looking at the Taoist priest with fairy spirit, Xu Xun asked in a deep voice: "It has not rained in the capital area these days, so how could there be trees falling down and rocks falling down?"
