The mountains, rivers, swamps, and beautiful vegetation, the wind blowing over the small hills, stir up layers of heat, making people sweat like rain.
It was originally the best time for the grass to grow and the orioles to fly, but in the forest, I saw rows of soldiers standing tall and tall, looking very majestic.
"You all listen up. Your Majesty has given an order today. In recognition of your hard work in battle and the hot weather, you are allowed to camp in the woods. Today, His Majesty is sympathetic to you. You must use all your strength to fight in the future. Remember, as long as you can report to General Guan, I have a great feud with General Zhang. You are my great contributors to the resurgence of the Han Dynasty. When the time comes, it will not be a problem to make my wife Yinzi, and even the powerful ones can be made a marquis. Remember! Tomorrow, I will chop Wu Gou hard!" The leader walked out! An officer who looks like a civilian, he has a very heroic look under his hair, but his speech is mixed with a strong Hunan accent. "Disband!"
After the announcement, everyone returned to their posts with smiles on their faces, except for one person who had a sad face.
This person is Li Xian who came through time travel. Even he himself doesn’t know how he came through time travel. It was originally a planned trip, but because I stayed up late and overslept, when I got up the next day, I found myself in the tent. The brothers in the same camp thought this guy was crazy because of the heat. Just travel through time. In fact, he was quite excited at first. After asking for a long time, he found out that it was in the Three Kingdoms era, the era he was most familiar with. He was still a soldier of Liu Bei's camp. This was so awesome. At first, he even thought about following Guan Zhang. The two generals were killing each other indiscriminately, and maybe they could earn a general to play with, relying on their own knowledge to revive the Han Dynasty. After asking, I found out that Guan and Zhang were gone last year, and the place where they marched was called Yiling...
"Who is the general who spoke just now?" Li Xian opened his mouth with difficulty and asked the sergeant next to him.
"I said you're crazy because of the heat. You don't even know General Fu Tong, right? You are all from Jingzhou." The sergeant pursed his lips.
This was so bad that Li Xian's heart basically hit rock bottom. He still wanted to kill Wu Gou tomorrow. If he remembered correctly, he had to finish it tonight. Don't think about killing the enemy. Think about how to survive.
The sergeant saw Li Xian's livid face: "What's wrong with you? Are you suffering from heatstroke again?"
"No, do you know where the nearest water source is?"
"It's just fifty steps south from here."
"What time is it now?" Li Xian asked again.
"What time is it?" The sergeant was surprised. "Can you speak human language?"
"What time is it?"
"Looking at the sun, it's probably noon, right? You shouldn't be on duty today, why are you asking about the time?"
Li Xian was helpless and looked at the sergeant who was about his own age with a look of pity: "Brother, thank you, I haven't asked you what your name is yet?"
"I'm sleeping on your right side. What's my name? I'm teasing you, right? Get out of here. You can't stay here when you're cool."
Li Xian didn't know that he shouldn't ask this question, but if there were no accidents, this would be the last time the two of them met. He knew that this was the first person who had said so many words to him, but he didn't care anyway We can't talk about the burning of Yiling. A small sergeant can't make any difference, especially in the face of a strong man like Fu Tong who would rather die than surrender to Wu Gou. He was directly charged with disturbing the morale of the army by the military law. It is very possible. Historical records record that Fu Tong died of exhaustion after his death, and his son Fu Jian later became a general under Jiang Wei.
No matter what, he had to run out, unless he had a chance to meet Fu Tong or Liu Bei alone. Obviously, this situation was almost zero. He had to think of a way to get out, obviously if there was a water source. , he would definitely be blocked by Wu people at night. He had never thought about it. He abandoned his armor and swam into the Yangtze River. With the swimming skills of later generations, the difficulty of this challenge was simply as difficult as climbing to the sky. Unless he had great luck like Zhao Gou, Here comes a mud horse to ferry you.
The question now is how to run and where to run. He even once complained about why he was not in Huang Quan's department but Fu Tong's department. He had to find a way to break this almost certain death situation. If the days were longer in summer, he would have 5 He can prepare in an hour. The only good news is that he is not on duty today. In addition to preparing for the battle, he has more free time.
The question is, how to escape.
...
"Prime Minister, hurry up and report!" But he saw a cavalryman running hard in the Chinese army tent, looking like he was in a hurry. Looking at the tilted sun, Li Xian was shocked again. After all, he had an escape tool in his hand. It's only half done.
"I said, Third Brother, you are not on duty today, why are you busy all afternoon?"
Li Xian knew that this third child was calling him, so he said unhurriedly: "I want to prepare something for home if I win."
"Yo yo yo, you are already a grown man, and you don't even have a wife at home. Who are you making these belts for? It's such a big pile, but it's still hollow in the middle? Looking at the waistline, I'm afraid even the fat aunt is too big. "The sergeant picked it up and gestured, then put it down immediately.
"I said, Third Brother, do you know that General Fu is very fierce? I came out that day and saw with my own eyes that he was holding the heads of seven Wu soldiers in his waist. I won't tell you. Although our General Fu usually All they do is clerical work, and they are no less capable than us soldiers when it comes to fighting."
Li Xian chatted one after another, but his eyes were always focused on the lifebuoy he had not yet prepared. It was the belt that the sergeant mentioned. It consisted of several hollowed-out pieces of wood, spliced together with a very simple engineering structure. It looked like It is indeed vulnerable to a blow, and even if it falls hard, it seems that it may fall apart.
Gradually, the sun slowly moved closer to the west mountain. Li Xian really had no choice but to live. It was better to die.
Suddenly, a man who looked like an army officer walked into the account and said, "The messenger who came just now has suffered from heat stroke. Which of you is willing to go to Chengdu to deliver the message?"
"Me!" Li Xian shouted immediately.
Everyone around looked at him in surprise.
"Is the third child crazy? We have a rest today, so why should he do the work by himself? Isn't it good to enjoy the cool air in the village?" The sergeants of the first battalion were talking about it.
"Okay!" the officer said immediately, "As expected of General Fu's officer, you are brave enough to face difficulties. If you can reach Chengdu within five days and hand the letter to the prime minister, I will promote you to the rank of corps commander when you come back."
"It's an order!" Li Xian couldn't believe it.
"Then I'll leave right now!"
"Wait a minute, you must not read the letter privately, otherwise you will be punished by military law!" the officer said again.
"I will obey the general's orders."
...
Li Xian quickly rode out of the camp gate. He looked up and saw that half the sun had already set below the Western Mountain. If he didn't leave, it would be too late. He could only rely on his courage and whip the horse. He walked out in a flash.
The Yiling Mountains are originally a linear mountain range composed of many small hills. However, the Jiangnan area is full of small ditches, which are really difficult to walk on. Otherwise, the tiger and leopard riders of the civilized world would have trampled Jiangnan. .
Suddenly, the war horse neighed and fell to the ground. It wasn't that it stepped on a ditch, but the hot weather caused the war horse to start foaming at the mouth. Even the horse couldn't bear the scorching sun.
So even now, before he could get out of the Yiling Mountains, his war horse crashed to the ground. It was not easy to get out of this so-called mountain range. The wilderness mountains without woodland also showed his real danger. He could only go, to the northwest. .
No, you can't walk, you have to run, you have to run out like flying!
He could smell the crisis more and more, and the cool night breeze mixed with the smell of earth blew over, making him really wake up and start running!
He took off his armor, even his helmet, and had no weapons. Whenever he met any Wu Jun who was ambushing him on the road, he seemed to be done with it. But today's Wu Jun was surprisingly quiet, and they didn't even seem to be interested in ambush.
As he ran, he woke up. There was no need to go to Chengdu. Now he was going to Jiangzhou, or to Baidi City. In other words, as long as he ran fast enough, the flames would not be able to catch up with my footsteps.
Thinking of this, he adjusted his breathing rate. From sprinting at the beginning, he slowly changed to running at a constant speed. After running for about a quarter of an hour, there seemed to be no movement behind him and it was surprisingly quiet. Li Xian was surprised and confused, not to mention that he suddenly saw what seemed to be a trance in front of him. There is a camp, and there seems to be Wu troops inside.
"I won't run to Shimen Mountain, right?" Li Xian was even more frightened. Shimen Mountain is indeed the only way to go to Baidi City for Fengjie today. It seems that we are not going the wrong way.
However, in history, Sun Huan had been ambushing here for many days, and even almost captured Liu Bei alive. If he encountered him, his life would be in danger, and his run would have been in vain.
After looking around, this place was indeed insurmountable. When he was about to give up, the words "Liu Bei overcame the mountains and overcame dangers with only his own body" appeared in his mind.
He didn't even have time to continue thinking. Thick smoke began to fill the south of the Yiling Mountains, and the atmosphere in the camp in front of the door seemed to become more tense.
Then go over the mountain. Li Xian had no choice but to follow the mountain crossing line recorded in the history books. It just so happened that Shimen Mountain was indeed a narrow mouth with a high middle and low sides. If the observation deck was easily blocked by the rolling hills, the view would be blocked. , let alone, this is really useful, as long as the noise is smaller, it is basically invisible, and the shouting of killing from the south is filling the sky.
In just a quarter of an hour, they successfully reached the back of the tent. Behind them was an unobstructed view of the road down the mountain, and the watchtower behind them was even more difficult to pass.
While thinking about it, I heard someone shouting in unison in the camp: "Don't leave Liu Bei!"
The archer at the lookout also looked back. Li Xian realized that the opportunity was good, so he threw a stone out. The astute archer immediately looked back, only to find that there was nothing. Occasionally, there were a few mice moving around, so he stopped looking. This way.
Li Xian immediately turned sideways and rolled down with the help of the power of the landslide, so that he could pass with the smallest sound.
Slowly rolling out of sight, he heard a whooshing sound as arrows kept coming. Li Xian screamed in his heart, but he heard a "dong" sound and shot straight into the tree next to him, causing a bunch of cicadas to chirp.
Li Xian looked again but could no longer see the lookout, so he relaxed and continued running forward.
Li Xian ran three or four miles again, but felt that his legs and feet were weak and he seemed unable to lift them up. It looked like he had cramps, and then he felt unbearable pain.
"Escape is really hard work, and this time travel node is awesome." He cursed in his heart.
Then the sound of horse hooves gradually came closer, and Li Xian stopped struggling, thinking that he must be cold. He had secretly thought about whether he could die and go back. Obviously this was impossible.
A group of soldiers with white helmets and white armor suddenly appeared behind Shimen Mountain. They were all holding long spears and had strong builds and excellent armor. They were obviously a well-trained unit. The leader was even more heroic, with a white horse and a silver spear. , like the white-robed young general coming out of the storyteller's mouth.
"Is this General Zhao Yun here?" Li Xian stopped thinking and shouted loudly.
"Are you looking for death? Listen up, I am Uncle Chen from Yuzhou!"
"General Chen, I wanted to go to Chengdu with a letter from His Majesty, but my horse collapsed on the way. I had no choice but to walk here. I hope the general can save me!"
Chen Dao looked at the sergeant with disgust. It was already annoying enough to admit that he was wrong, and he was even more hesitant in his heart as to whether this person was a deserter.
"Since you are a fast messenger, who do you belong to?"
"I'm with General Fu Tong!"
"Hurry up and take it into the tent to rest!"
Li Xian was surprised that the name General Fu Tong was so useful, so he said nothing and continued walking northwest with the help of two guards from the rear army...
