Chapter 426: Sword Sect Moves Southward
It is said that after Qing'er left, Huang Gai and Chen Long, brothers in life and death, finally had the opportunity to talk to each other. After being reunited after a long separation, Huang Gai asked worriedly: "After Wang Chang and others leave, someone will immediately report to Wang Yun. After our troops withdraw to Chang'an, Wang Yun's troops will surely come. What will happen to the Sword Sect?"
This is the most realistic problem at hand. Today's high-profile expulsion of Wang Chang does not mean that Wang Yun will not come. Huang Gai cannot always stay here. Even if he stays here permanently, he may become a target for destruction by the enemy. In short, it is not safe for Chen Long and Baoyue to continue to stay here.
Baoyue interjected: "The thieves who plotted against us in Cangzhou have been found out, and the Nanlin Sword Sect has been captured. Why don't we just go back to Jizhou? Let me tell dad, why don't we join forces to wipe out Qu Yi?"
Chen Long was greatly moved when he heard this, and thought thoughtfully: "But, the brothers and sisters of the Sword Sect support us so much, who will protect them when we leave?"
This was a headache. Baoyue couldn't help but frown and said, "How about taking them away together? Of course, they have to be willing."
Huang Gai said: "This is a good idea. Let them blend into my cavalry and evacuate without anyone noticing. The Nanlin Sword Sect was originally a big help to the imperial court. We disturbed it, which is also a big credit."
Chen Long nodded, then slowly shook his head and said: "If the Nanlin Sword Sect disappears from the world, how can we be worthy of the former sword master Wang Yi? This is her hard work for many years."
"Moreover, our sister Baoyue is the position of the sword master. If the sword sect disappears, Wang Yun can let Wang Chang and Qing'er come here again to form a new Nanlin sword sect. He became the court eagle dog again."
Baoyue grabbed her hair and murmured: "Then we can't leave or stay? Then what should we do?"
Chen Long also scratched his head and said: "Wang Chang will not be able to establish a new sword sect until the Nanlin Sword Sect's name disappears. Gongfu, do you have a marching map with you? Show it to me."
Since Chen Long formed the Qinglong Army, he has long promoted map making, and the generals he appointed have also developed the habit of carrying military maps with them. Huang Gai immediately took out a map from his arms and unfolded it on the wall. Chen Long's fingers went south along Chang'an, passing through the large Zhongnan Mountains, and stopped in the mountains between Shangluo and Xiangyang, and tapped the map heavily.
Huang Gai examined the map carefully and asked: "Guishiling Baisang Pass?" Bao Yue also leaned her head over, looked at the map, and was ready to listen to Chen Long's explanation.
Chen Long nodded and said: "Yes, Baisang Pass in Guishiling."
"The Nanlin Sword Sect will not disappear here, but will move south to Guishiling Baisang Pass. The mountains here are rolling, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is outside Chang'an's sphere of influence."
"The most important thing is that this place is not far from the mouth of the Danjiang River, and there is a waterway from Xiangyang to the mouth of the Danjiang River, so there is no need to worry about the supplies of the Sword Sect."
Huang Gai said happily: "Wen Chang is at Danjiangkou, Meng Qi is in Hanzhong, Zhang Xiu is in Wancheng, and Zilong is in Yingchuan. How can Wang Yun dare to lead his troops to the south? The Nanlin Sword Sect moved to Baisang Pass, but It’s safe! My lord is so clever, so clever!”
Bao Yue chuckled, became happy, and said with a smile: "General Huang can also flatter you! The slap is very loud!" Huang Gai had a good impression of Bao Yue and said with a smile: "Sister Zhen Yue, your eldest brother is also my eldest brother, your name is Just call me second brother!" Baoyue sweetly called out: "Second brother!"
When Chen Long saw Huang Gai and Bao Yue smiling and flirting, he felt a little jealous. He patted Huang Gai on the shoulder and said, "Second brother! I have something to ask of you."
"Three days later, Baoyuehui and I will announce that the Nanlin Sword Sect will move to Baisang Pass in Guishiling. General, you will be responsible for suppressing the opposition." Huang Gai's expression became serious and he nodded in agreement.
"Also, you immediately send someone to summon the generals you just mentioned to join me at Baisang Pass. My battle in Jizhou will be indispensable without these generals." Huang Gai said with great joy: "My lord, I finally decided to go first Have you destroyed Yuan Shao and Qu Yi? Take me with you! You can't go into such a big battle without me!"
Chen Long shook his head and said: "No, it's fair to say! I can rest assured that you and Gongda are here in Chang'an! Chang'an is the place with the heaviest tasks. If you are not careful, Wang Yun will stand up. It really can't be done without you!" Huang Gai said with a bitter face: "That's such a pity! Let Zilong take over from me!"
Chen Long smiled and said: "Zilong? By the way, if Yingchuan wants to fight Yuan Shu and Cao Cao in a battle of wits and courage, it really cannot do without Zilong. This time, neither you nor Zilong can move. You have people summon Zhang? from Xiangyang. Well, let him bring Zhuge Liang by the way. The deputies of Wei Yan, Zhang Xiu, Ma Chao, and Zhang Xi will all act as commanders for the time being."
Huang Gai stood at attention, raised his hands and saluted, "Yes! Zhuge Liang is the boy who made the move, right?"
The memory of the Nanlin Sword Sect's southward migration was set, and Huang Gai went to arrange to notify the four generals. Within three days, Huang Gai narrated the situation in the world. There were many changes in the Northeast, Northwest, and Central Plains. Chen Long listened to them one by one and had new feelings in his heart. He couldn't help but lament why it was so difficult to unify the world. What's more? How many conspiracies need to be solved, how many obstacles need to be overcome, and how many contradictions need to be compromised!
Three days later, Chen Long and Baoyue followed the group and moved south, and most of the disciples chose to follow. Huang Gai resettled a small number of disciples who were unwilling to move south, and then withdrew from the Zhongnan Mountains and returned to Chang'an to take charge.
The Nanlin Sword Sect brigade, carrying a lot of luggage, slowly crossed the Shangluo mountains and headed towards the target Guishiling. There are endless scenery along the way. When you encounter the end of mountains and rivers, you will inevitably cut down trees and build bridges, which is like marching in the mountains. When I arrived at Wuguan Town that day, I saw a green river surrounding a majestic pass under the cliff. A guide pointed at it and said: "Master Zhen Jian! That's Wuguan! After passing this pass, continue to the southeast. After walking for ten days, you can reach Baisang Pass in Guishiling."
Chen Long thought that he still had ten days to go, so he asked the guide: "What is the name of this river? Where does it lead to? Is it possibly navigable?"
The guide said: "This river is called Danjiang, but I have never taken a boat to the lower reaches. I don't know where it leads." It turned out that the guide was just a native who only made a living hunting in the mountains, but had never been out there. The far gate downstream.
Chen Long was still overjoyed. The name of this river was Danjiang. Wasn't Wei Yan stationed at the mouth of Danjiang? Maybe he could go down the river by water, which would save a lot of legwork. Thinking of this, he hurriedly shouted loudly, and the disciples of Jian Sect entered Wuguan together and rested.
The mountain road went round and round, and halfway down the mountain, the river and Xiongguan disappeared. Chen Long took Bao Yue to practice Qinggong, and took the lead to go over the mountains and ridges towards Wuguan. He saw the Xiongguan in front, the door was wide open, and a general with a height of nine feet, a beard on his face, a tall and mighty man, sat down. The yellow gelding, with a machete in its hand, immediately dismounted when seeing Chen Long, inserted its weapon, pushed the golden mountain and overturned the jade pillar, knelt down and saluted: "My subordinate, Wei Yan, has been waiting here for a long time! How are you, my lord?"
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
