On the top of Langya platform, Xiaobai is wreaking havoc.
The originally orderly army of 500 guards was now in disarray. In just a few breaths, nearly a hundred soldiers were injured and staggered back, or vomited blood and fell to the ground.
This is because Xiaobai remembers Qin Tian's teaching of "no harm, no fight".
The way of heaven is beneficial but not harmful. The way of man is to fight for nothing!
The way of heaven is the principle of heaven. God encourages all things to benefit instead of harming them.
The way of man is what saints or transcendent people need to do, that is, dedicate and give, rather than robbing from the common people.
Jiao is a spiritual beast, a second-level creature in heaven.
One step further, it’s a dragon!
It is different from those who are full of peaceful aura and are born as auspicious animals such as the spirit deer and the white crane. People belonging to the dragon family are gifted with magical powers. When they move, they can move clouds and rain, and when they move, they can cause thunder!
The so-called divine grace is like the sea, and divine power is like desire!
An auspicious beast or a ferocious beast, it only depends on one thought!
Those who are auspicious beasts will naturally be protected by heaven and have merit to protect their bodies. Even if they suffer from natural calamities, they will have nothing to fear.
As for ferocious beasts, they are repulsed by heaven and detested by all beings. Although you are free for a moment, you will never recover under the thunder and calamity!
Xiaobai is still young and doesn't know such big principles.
However, once it is enlightened by Qin Tian, what Qin Tian said is like a decree for it and cannot be violated.
How does it know how to adapt when it is young?
If Qin Tian learns about this matter, he will naturally refuse to do so.
Although Tian Dao says that he will not harm or fight, he is not a holy mother, and he can kill people when he takes action.
However, even though Xiaobai had shown mercy, the five hundred Qin soldiers still suffered a devastating blow.
Wearing three layers of heavy armor, although their protection was in place, it severely hindered their mobility.
Furthermore, the triple armor's defense against ordinary weapons was astonishing, but when faced with a dragon, even if it was just a young dragon, it was still unable to withstand it.
I saw a gloomy cloud on the top of Langyata, with figures flying around. The Qin soldiers were chased by Xiaobai, running like wolves and dogs, with no way to the sky and no way to the earth.
"Ouch!" But Xiaobai let out another loud cry, and it was already excited to play.
Yes, Xiaobai was just playing at this time. It was still young, so there was no certainty yet. Although it was furious at first, its anger had almost completely dissipated after swatting away dozens of Qin soldiers with its tail.
Now chasing these Qin soldiers has become a game. At this time, it has already targeted a villain on a horse.
The villain was different from the others. Not only was he riding a horse, but he also had a red cloak behind him. He was also shouting something while running away.
The horse was obviously much faster than the Qin soldiers wearing three layers of heavy armor. Xiaobai waved one of his paws casually, but the opponent easily dodged it. He was about to swing his tail to whip the opponent away when suddenly a chill came from it. My heart swelled.
It stopped suddenly and subconsciously looked to the south, where there was a group of little people wearing strange clothes, carrying a strange thing aimed at it.
The sound of "dong" was like the sound of a war drum, which was obviously different from the previous sound when the Qin army's crossbows were fired. A ray of black light was like a black meteor, shooting towards Xiaobai at a dizzying speed!
The speed of this black light was extremely fast. In just the blink of an eye, it had reached less than ten feet in front of Xiao Bai!
Although I don’t know what it is, Xiaobai’s heart is full of warning signs!
It twisted its body suddenly, and an extremely sharp breath suddenly passed by its chest and abdomen, and the sharp wind it brought even made it feel stinging!
There was a loud "boom", and the black light suddenly hit the side of the pool. Amidst the muffled sound, a huge cloud of dust and smoke suddenly splashed up, rammed earth fragments flew everywhere, and the nearby ground shook slightly.
With a "stab", Xiaobai gave up chasing the little man on horseback, and his figure suddenly shot out.
The next moment, there was a "crash", water splashed everywhere, and it plunged into the deep pool, never to emerge again.
The Five Hundred Lord who was left on the Langya Platform, who had been almost chased to the point of despair and almost wanted to jump off the cliff to survive, reined in his horse and stood there in confusion, looking at the rippling water pool, as if he was reborn.
"What a pity!" he said with fear and regret.
…
"pity!"
On the mountain road, Hu Hai punched his thigh hard and looked at the puddle on the stage with hatred and regret.
At the same time, there was also a hint of horror in his eyes.
Although he could not see the entire figure of the demonic dragon raging on the Langya platform just now due to the angle and the obstruction of vegetation, he could guess it from the sounds of various armors being torn apart and the various flying figures. What probably happened above.
In particular, a guard soldier was chased in a panic and ran to the crack on the top of the platform. He accidentally lost his footing and rolled down, which shocked him even more.
The climate of Qin is dry and windy. Every time there is a strong wind, there will be a sandstorm. It is also isolated in the west, surrounded by Jie people, Qiang people, and Huns.
Therefore, the people of Qin are very bloody and extremely brave. Even if they are on the verge of death, they can still fight with all their strength. Even if you can't survive in death, you still have to drag your enemies with you to death.
The Qin army did not lose its blood. When it attacked and destroyed the Six Kingdoms, the Six Kingdoms often relied on the strongholds of the city and refused to fight with the Qin Army in the wild. However, the Qin army will tell them with facts that a strong city is not enough!
When General Qin gave an order, some prisoners exposed their flesh, ignored the rain of arrows on the city, and carried earth to fill the trenches. When the spirit arises, he will even jump directly into the ditch and use his own flesh and blood to create a smooth path for the army to attack.
The prisoners are all people who were demoted to slaves because they committed crimes. They must obtain military merits before they can save their families from dire straits. It seems reasonable to fill a horse's hooves with the flesh.
However, those soldiers are all regular soldiers, called soldiers, and they are the lowest nobles in the dynasty. They are like prisoners who regard their lives as nothing!
Rushing through the avenue filled with the bodies of the prisoners, and then climbing up the city like ants while carrying rocks, rocks, gold, hot oil and other objects, even if they were burned to the point of screaming and wailing loudly, they would not let go and run for their lives. Climb up.
This is the most terrifying nightmare for the kings and ministers of the six kingdoms in the past!
Ever since Wu'an Jun Baiqi killed all the Wei soldiers in one battle and avenged his previous humiliation, in the past hundred years, have we ever seen Qin soldiers beaten to the point of running like wolves and dogs?
However, he also knew that it was not the guards who were timid.
The Weiwei army is worthy of being the strongest army in the world. Even though they were beaten several feet away by the evil dragon and vomited blood, not a single person wailed and begged. They were even struggling to get up and fight again!
In the final analysis, it is this young demon on Langya stage who is too strong!
It can't be hurt by fighting, and it can't be penetrated by a shot within thirty feet of a crossbow!
However, it is not invincible!
Hu Hai's eyes fell on the bed crossbow in front of him.
This is what Li Chao has just transferred. It is the most powerful weapon in Da Qin. Its power is so powerful that it is frightening.
The arm of the bed crossbow is not simply made of horn or bamboo wood, but an iron tire or copper tire and an iron back!
And there is not only one crossbow arm, but three or four!
A bed crossbow requires eight people to operate. First, four people fix the bed crossbow and prevent it from moving. The four people pull the bow string, press the crossbow arms with their feet, and use their strength to wind the bed crossbow.
Then the four people who fixed the crossbow lifted the crossbow, two people loaded the crossbow arrows, and the other two took aim and fired.
The power of the bed crossbow can no longer be measured by stones, but by oxen!
This is because the smelting technology in the Qin Dynasty was backward, iron farm tools were not popular, and the traditional wooden or even bronze plowshares could not withstand the strong pull of oxen, resulting in fewer plowing oxen.
If by the Song Dynasty, it would have developed to perfection and would have a famous name: Eight Bull Crossbow!
The crossbow could only be pulled open with the strength of eight cows!
Although the bed crossbow of the Qin Dynasty was not as powerful as the crossbow of the Song Dynasty, a seven-horse chain of iron pagodas was instantly reduced to minced meat, but it was no problem to shoot an evil dragon into dregs with one blow!
Otherwise, the evil dragon just now would never have avoided it, let alone slip back into the pool and hide!
"What a pity!" He said regretfully again.
"We should quickly go to Langyata, gather together and shoot!" He looked at Li Chao.
The front army is the vanguard. The vanguard is not responsible for attacking fortifications, but is responsible for cleaning up unstable factors around the battlefield. What is needed is mobility, so they do not carry heavy crossbows.
Only the Chinese army moved slowly because they used chariots, so they could move forward carrying their beds and crossbows.
With one military chariot equipped with one crossbow, forty military chariots would have forty crossbows!
Enough to plow the entire pond countless times!
And Li Chao had the same idea. He glanced at the pool again. Due to the angle, he could not see the situation in the pool, but he knew that the evil spirit was hiding in the pool at this time and did not emerge.
"Send the order, the front army gathers the sergeants, retreats to a distance, and monitors from a distance!" He ordered quickly.
"Order the Chinese army to move forward quickly, we..."
Before he finished his order, he suddenly paused and looked towards the pool.
Hu Hai didn't understand what he meant and followed Li Chao's gaze. The next moment, he was also stunned.
I saw a thick white mist suddenly rising from the pool!
The white mist spread extremely quickly, covering the entire pool in an instant, and was still spreading rapidly around.
"What is this? Where did the fog come from!" Hu Hai was stunned.
How could a perfectly good pool suddenly become foggy? And getting up so weird.
"General, this is not surprising." Li Chao's voice sounded faintly, and he couldn't help but glance at Hu Hai.
"It is recorded in ancient books that the dragon can move through the clouds, but when the clouds are in low places, they are fog!"
Hu Hai was stunned and a little surprised. As a young master, it is unparalleled for him to be ignorant to this level.
After all, the classics studied during the Qin Dynasty's studies were only a few books in total, which added up to less than 100,000 words, which was not as good as a Chinese language book in later generations.
"Is there something mysterious about this fog?" he said cautiously.
"I don't know."
Unlike his caution, Li Chao was full of confidence at this time, and he even sneered.
"I only know that moving clouds is Jiao's special skill!"
"At this time, it uses the travel cloud method, which shows that it has reached the end of its skills!"
"I want to cover our sight with mist, but I don't know that our powerful Qin army has fought fiercely in the mist for countless times!"
"This is an act of hiding one's ears and stealing the bell. The big thing is settled!"
At this moment, Li Chao only felt the wind blowing under his ribs, and his whole body was filled with pleasure.
The Li family was also the family of the generals of the Qin Dynasty. However, since Li Xin's attack on Chu, he was stabbed in the back by Lord Changping, causing his army to sink in the sand. The dignified Chinese army actually needed the rescue of Meng Wu, who was a partial army, and its prestige was completely lost.
The First Emperor had a cold nature. Before Li Xin's defeat, his status was still above Meng's. He became a general and was on an equal footing with the famous general Wang Jian.
He was defeated in the Chu region, and it was not a crime of war, but because Changpingjun rebelled and cut off the retreat of the army. After returning to the court, he was not even allowed to be a general of the side division, and he was actually the second-in-command of Wang Jian's son Wang Ben.
As a result, Li Xin died early and depressed, and the Li family also plummeted. By this time, the world only knew the Meng family and the Wang family, and had long forgotten the Li family.
Li Chao was determined to revitalize his family. However, although the Weiwei army was the strongest in the world, they had no chance to gain military exploits.
After all, the Weiwei Army was the First Emperor's own army. If it was not a matter of national subjugation, how could they move lightly?
This is the reason why Li Chao struggled in the Weiwei army for several years and was still just a small cavalry captain.
This time, coming to Langyatai with Hu Hai to kill the evil spirits is an excellent opportunity, and it is also the only opportunity!
Although Hu Hai must be the first to slay the dragon, and Hu Hai's reputation for slaying the evil dragon at Langyatai will be sung all over the world, but this is an opportunity for Li to return to the court!
It is also an opportunity to return to the heart of the First Emperor!
The First Emperor's appointment of Li Chao as Hu Hai's deputy general had a profound meaning, because the eldest son Fusu had been guarding the north for many years, and the general in charge of the army beside him was Meng Tian!
The greatest warrior in the Qin Dynasty, a famous general with an army of 300,000 men!
The only one who can compete with Meng Tian's 300,000-strong army is the most powerful army in the world, the Weiwei Army!
However, although the Weiwei Army could fight against Meng Tian's Great Wall Army, Jie was far inferior to Meng Tian.
Jie was born as a shepherd slave, knew no books, and had never learned the art of war. How could he be a match for Meng Tian, who came from a family of famous generals and was the greatest warrior in the Qin Dynasty?
There must be a coach who can compete with Meng Tian in the art of war!
Is there anyone more suitable than Li Chao, the son of the famous general Li Xin and a member of the Weiwei Army?
This is an opportunity that Lee cannot miss!
Therefore, Li Chao made a lot of preparations before setting off. He sent scouts and consulted ancient books, and everything was clear to him.
Therefore, as soon as the evil dragon on the top of the stage hid in the pool and started to move on the clouds, Li Chao said something about it.
Moreover, this is not all the preparation he has made.
"The whole army obeys the order!"
He ignored Hu Hai, turned to his subordinates and ordered: "This is the mist caused by the evil dragon, it may be poisonous!"
"You need to be careful and careful. If you feel poisoned, take the medicinal stone immediately!"
The sound of horse hooves sounded, and several shouts came from far away. It was the soldiers who were delivering the order, telling the whole army about Li Chao's order.
"Is this fog poisonous?" Hu Hai's expression changed slightly, and it was only then that he found a chance to interject.
And Li Chao finally turned his head, with a confident smile on his face: "I don't know either. But I read ancient books, and the book once said that Jiao is slightly poisonous!"
"Although this evil dragon is very young, even if it is poisonous, it is not strong. And the ancient book does not say whether its poison can be spread along with the clouds. However, be prepared!"
Hu Hai's eyes lit up: "What a good person who doesn't know, but what a good person who is prepared!"
He suddenly changed the subject: "I heard that Wei Wei Jie does not train. The Wei Wei army conducts daily drills, but the Cavalry Commander does it with all his strength?"
"This is a false rumor." Li Chao shook his head, "Although Wei Weijie does not know the book, the Weiwei army has the method of training Wei soldiers inherited by Bai Qi of Wu'an army. We only need to follow it correctly."
"However," he continued without being arrogant or arrogant, "I have done my best in the military's battle formations, commanding methods, etc."
While answering Hu Hai, he waved to signal the army to continue moving forward.
The rumble of wheels grinding into dirt and gravel sounded again, and Hu Hai looked happy.
Although he didn't know how to fight, as the son of the First Emperor, he accompanied the First Emperor on patrols every day, and was always surrounded by soldiers, so naturally he was not too unfamiliar with military formations.
From his perspective, the guards led by Li Chao behaved in a measured manner, advanced and retreated in a well-organized manner. Even if it is just marching, there is an aura that is pleasing to the eye.
He couldn't help but look back. At this time, the fog had spread to the mountain road, everything began to become hazy, and he could only see a blurry shadow more than ten feet away.
The villages and fields at the foot of the mountain were also hidden in the mist.
It seems that only this mountain road and the Weiwei army are left in the world.
These guard sergeants, with a rigidity that made people almost admire, silently followed the military vehicles and moved forward in two columns.
Hu Hai looked carefully and found that the distance between every two soldiers was equal, three feet.
"This is a good time to relax!" He took a rare moment to hang up his book bag.
Li Chao looked back at Hu Hai in surprise: "Can the partial general also see that the Weiwei army has the style of Jin?"
"Is it the style of Zhou Dynasty and Jin Dynasty to have a good time and relax?" Hu Hai asked in surprise.
Li Chao was choked. He took a deep breath and explained patiently: "There is a saying in "Zuo Zhuan" that Zi Zhong asked about the bravery of the Jin state. The minister replied: "It's better to unite the people." He said: "So what?" ’ The minister replied: ‘It’s good to have some free time.’”
"This is the origin of having a good time and taking leisure time. In the past, the Jin Kingdom was the uncle of the princes, the overlord of the world, and the basis for the Jin army to sweep the world. It was a good way to take time off!"
"And I like to be a majestic teacher, so when I am in the army, I like to be in charge of the Jin Dynasty."
Hu Hai nodded as if he understood something. He still knew what it meant to take time off, which meant that no matter what the situation was, he should be calm and unhurried. Fortunately, he had no idea that he had anything to do with the Jin army.
He curiously said: "The method of guarding the Wei soldiers was derived from Bai Qi, Lord Wu'an. I know this. However, the people of Jin are so good at leisure. I wonder where the captain of the cavalry learned it from?"
Knowledge is scarce these days and communication channels are extremely limited.
Although the Jin people's "good time and leisure" is just a four-character idiom, in practice it is a combination of a complete set of military orders, drills, and even on-the-spot arrangements.
Just like an ordinary queue, all soldiers in the world in later generations know that the queue must be orderly. However, if you want to be orderly and majestic, you also need to go to China to seek advice.
There are images and data from later generations, but it is impossible to learn by yourself without a teacher. It is a fantasy in the Qin Dynasty to train the soldiers of the overlord as magnificent as the Jin Dynasty just by using the four words "good training and leisure".
"My great ancestor Jing is a senior official in the Jin Kingdom and later a general in the Zhao Kingdom!" Li Chao said meaningfully.
Hu Hai was stunned, and he raised his hands in awe: "The Cavalry Captain is a famous general from generation to generation!"
The marriage between Zhou Dynasty, Jin Dynasty and Qin Dynasty was said to be "the good of Qin and Jin". At that time, the Jin State was the overlord of the world, but the Qin State was poor, so Qin State imitated Jin everywhere.
Among them, no knighthood is allowed except for military merit. If you don't have military merit, you will never be promoted to the title of Zhongdafu.
The Zhao State was the product of the division of the Jin Dynasty by three families. The fact that Li Chao's great ancestor Li Jing was able to become the general of the Zhao State also shows that he was also a general in charge of the army in the Jin State.
In this way, it is normal for the Li family to inherit the Jin people's method of "taking care of themselves and taking time off".
Hu Hai's heart was already burning with joy at this time.
Although he was uneducated and incompetent, he also knew that if he wanted to ascend the throne as the Second Emperor of Qin, the attitude of the First Emperor was important, and the strength in his hands was even more important!
With a strong army, we also need famous generals!
Although Zhao Gao once told him that Wang Jian's son Wang Ping was also available. However, Zhao Gao also said clearly that if Wang Ping is more than successful, but not aggressive enough, he will definitely not be as good as Meng Tian.
I didn’t expect that this time when I went to Langyata to kill the dragon, not only would I be helped by the strongest army in the world, but I would also meet a famous general like Li Chao!
Not only did he know how to train the Wei soldiers, he also knew how to train the Jin people in his spare time, and he also commanded the strongest army in the world...
In this way, we will definitely be able to compete with Meng Tian!
God loves me, Hu Hai!
He couldn't help but speak again: "Captain Qi, you are willing to be my Lord Wu'an..."
Before he could finish his sentence, the chariot suddenly shook. Hu Hai was caught off guard and almost fell off the chariot.
He looked at Li Chao in surprise, only to see Li Chao holding the reins tightly with both hands and looking around with suspicion.
"What happened?" Hu Hai asked in surprise.
Li Chao seemed to be startled by these words. He turned his head subconsciously and saw Hu Hai had just come back to his senses, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
"General, we..." At this time, the aura of a famous general on his body has completely disappeared, and the previous confidence has been thrown out of the sky. There is a touch of disbelief and surprise in his voice.
"I'm afraid," he said slowly, "I'm lost!"
"Huh?" Hu Hai suspected that he had been poisoned by dragon poison and had problems with his ears.
He looked at Li Chao in disbelief, waiting for Li Chao's confirmation.
Li Chao's face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. He reluctantly glanced around again, then carefully looked at a crooked-necked tree not far away, and finally spoke in shame.
"We may have gone the wrong way!"
Hu Hai's face turned pale instantly, and then turned red again.
He only felt a surge of blood in his heart, and it rushed into his mind in an instant.
Looking dumbfounded at Li Chao who was busy swallowing the realgar powder, Hu Hai's lips trembled.
This time he finally heard Li Chao's words clearly, but he found that he couldn't understand them.
Earlier, I was still praising him as a famous general, and wanted to ask him if he was willing to serve as my Lord Wu'an.
Based on the demeanor that Li Chao showed previously, although this title is a bit flattering, it is still worthy of it.
The number of guardsmen was small, only one hundred thousand.
However, one hundred thousand soldiers are all in iron armor, which is enough to equal the other three armies' three hundred thousand soldiers!
However, Wei Weijie didn't know how to read or how to train troops. Daily training was done by Li Chao.
How can a general who can train an army of 100,000 guards in an orderly manner not be called a famous general?
Unexpectedly, the next moment, he actually said that he was lost!
It's okay to get lost. It's common to get lost when marching in heavy fog.
The problem is, there is only one way to go to Langyatai!
Can you get lost on a road?
Seeing Li Chao's confused look, Hu Hai really wanted to ask him.
"Is your brain disease better than mine?"
Hu Hai felt the urge to cry for the first time in his life.
Today he led five thousand of the strongest troops in the world, sitting in a military chariot, chatting, and behind him there were soldiers carrying crossbows on their backs. It is said that a mere young evil dragon is a real god here, and he can shoot it right through.
In particular, the cavalry captain in front of him, who personally served as his driver, acted in a very orderly manner, and his words "Be prepared for any danger" won Hu Hai's heart. Speaking of military background, it is clear and simple, easy to understand, and full of fun.
In short, he is very capable and speaks well.
Especially after this cavalry captain became a famous general in the Jin Dynasty, he could train Wei soldiers but it was nothing more than a return. He was so good at Jin that he showed his majestic power, even Hu Hai had to stand in awe.
What he never expected was that as soon as he started talking about it, he got lost.
Lord Wu'an roamed the world and killed many people in the six kingdoms. Did he ever get lost?
Who is a famous general if he gets lost?
how?
Bai Qi is known as the God of Killing, the slaughterer of people. As soon as he speaks the word Wu Anjun, there is an evil aura. Can it enchant the mind?
Of course, Hu Hai didn't know that Li Chao had a descendant named Li Guang, who was also a famous general and was called the Flying General.
However, in addition to his great military achievements, there is another thing that makes people sigh.
That is the good way to go astray.
He participated in a total of five wars in his life and got lost three times. His partner was Wei Qing and Huo Qubing. Li Guang didn't show up, and the two of them didn't say anything about waiting. They just drove him to Mobei, sealed the wolf in Xu, and achieved great military success.
However, Li Guang held an armed parade every year, and traveled thousands of miles away for his life, even breaking his legs, but he could only act as a cheerleader, traveling thousands of miles to welcome the victorious king's army back to Guanzhong, leaving behind the regret that "Li Guang could not be sealed."
Of course, Li Chao did not know that he would have such a descendant, nor did he think that being lost was the origin of his family education.
Because this is the first time he has lost his way since he can remember!
At this time, he was looking at a crooked-necked tree by the mountain road suspiciously, full of absurdity.
At this time, the fog has become thicker and thicker. As far as the eye can see, it is only less than two feet, and it has the tendency to continue to become thicker.
However, this tree was right next to the mountain road, no more than a foot away from Li Chao, and he could see it clearly.
Li Chao remembered clearly that this crooked-necked tree was beside the mountain path just before reaching the second-floor platform. Why did it suddenly come here?
After observing the tree carefully, Li Chao shook his head.
There is no mistake, this must be that tree. Because when Li Chao went up to the second floor platform, he saw this tree that was crooked and artistic. At that time, Li Chao was still sighing in his heart, this tree is very suitable for hanging one's neck.
At this moment, he wished he could hang himself on this tree!
As a cavalry captain, although he was nominally the deputy general on this trip, in fact Hu Hai completely ignored military affairs and acted as the chief general.
This trip is of great importance, and it is also related to whether Li can return to the court, so Li Chao is very careful.
As he said before, be prepared!
He had been paying attention to his surroundings before, especially after the evil dragon walked in the clouds, he paid even more attention to everything.
How could you be lost?
Moreover, there is only one way to the top of Langya Stage, how could I go wrong?
What's the point of this?
wrong!
He patted his head, making the iron helmet clatter.
There is not only one way to go to Langyatai, but two!
In fact, earth platforms like this actually have an avenue in the middle that leads straight from the bottom to the top of the platform.
It's just that this path is the so-called "Royal Path".
The First Emperor unified the six kingdoms and achieved unparalleled achievements. Since then, he has changed the title of "I" that could be used by everyone to the exclusive use of the First Emperor.
And because all the authority of the world belongs to the First Emperor, who alone controls the world, all the utensils used by the First Emperor are "for imperial use."
For example, the First Emperor ordered the world to build a straight road, also called Chi Dao. The straight path is twenty feet wide, and the middle three feet is the so-called royal path. Except for the royal chariot of the First Emperor, anyone who dares to take a step on the royal road will be beheaded and the whole family will sit down!
The same is true for the road to the stage. This straight road from the bottom of the stage to the top of the earth platform is the Imperial Road. Only the First Emperor can get on the stage from now on, and everyone else can only take the "side road".
The bypass is on both sides of the royal road. Therefore, when the guards went to Langyatai, in addition to killing the dragons, they also needed to clean up and drive away the wild beasts in the mountains, so as not to scare the emperor.
And because the imperial road is not accessible, Li Chao marched from this point on, entering from the mountain road on the right side of the platform, turning to the left side of the imperial road, then taking the left side road to the second floor, and then turning left onto the mountain road surrounding the mountain. , then go to the right side of the Royal Road and go to the stage along the right side channel.
Of course, the Weiwei Army was the personal army of the First Emperor. If they were on the straight road to Qin, they could still avoid the imperial road. But when they came to the stage, for the sake of the safety of the First Emperor, they also needed to go on the imperial road.
Moreover, when the army was marching and fighting, even if he stepped on the royal road, the First Emperor would not be guilty.
However, Li Chao wanted to use this opportunity to regain the attention of the First Emperor, so he naturally had to pay attention to such details.
After all, it was just to go on stage to kill an evil spirit. There was really no reason to set foot on the imperial path dedicated to the First Emperor.
In this way, he can also show his respect to the First Emperor.
However, at this moment, Li Chao no longer cared about being respectful.
Because he discovered that it was very likely that he had already stepped on the royal road!
Since I saw this crooked-necked tree when I just climbed to the second floor, when I saw this tree again, I had naturally circled around the second floor and returned to the starting point!
However, I didn’t see Yu Dao at all along the way!
Of course, the Royal Road is the road to the stage built when King Goujian of Yue moved his capital to Langya. If we count from King Goujian of Yue, more than five hundred years have passed.
Over five hundred years of wind and rain, Langyatai is located near the sea, and the sea water is eroding underground day by day. Even the top of the platform has collapsed, and the royal road has also collapsed, which is normal.
However, the key point is that Langyatai is divided into three levels, and each level becomes smaller as it goes up.
The first level of the mountain road is more than ten miles long, and the second level is nearly seven miles long.
How had he ever traveled so far?
He glanced at Hu Hai carefully.
Could it be that I didn't pay attention to it while talking to the young son Hu Hai, and walked seven miles without realizing it?
"Has the Qi Du Lieutenant ever found the right path?" Hu Hai suddenly spoke sadly. The word "correct path" was specially accented, which obviously meant something.
He didn't know what Li Chao was thinking about when he hesitated for so long, let alone the difference between an imperial path and a side path.
In fact, he didn't know what the march route was at all. Anyway, he came here just to kill the dragon. After killing the beast, it was all the matter of the Weiwei Army, and he did not need to do it himself.
He just couldn't understand why Li Chao could get lost when there was only one way to get to the stage?
Where can this get lost?
Li Chaozhou knew the absurdity in Hu Hai's heart, because it was also extremely absurd in his heart at this time.
He pretended that he had never heard Hu Hai's cold question, calmed down, discarded distracting thoughts, and his heart became clear again.
It was not a big deal to step on the imperial road, because the First Emperor did not prohibit the guards from stepping on the imperial road, but they could not express respect to the First Emperor.
If it is delayed too much, it will be a real big deal!
Now that he has passed the royal road, although the side road to the third floor must be not far from the royal road at this time, the Chinese army has military chariots and it is not easy to turn around on the mountain road.
It's better to make an emergency trip and go around the mountain road again. According to the plan, we can go to the stage from the left side road of the Royal Road!
After making up his mind, a calm look appeared on Li Chao's face.
He suddenly let out a loud roar: "The whole army listens to the order and steps up to hide, don't let the evil dragon escape!"
"The Captain of Cavalry has an order, hurry up and hide, don't let the evil dragon escape!" The soldier who sent the order repeated his order. At this time, the fog had become thicker and thicker, and it had become hazy two feet away. Only his voice is heard but his person is not seen.
The sound of wheels rumbled again. The wheels of the chariot had copper spokes, that is, bronze edging, and the chariot was already extremely heavy. The bronze spokes rolled over the sand and gravel on the mountain road, as if accompanied by wind and thunder.
At this time, Li Chao had no time to distract himself from talking to Hu Haiyan. As he drove forward, he carefully observed the scenery on one side of the mountain road, and at the same time silently judged the distance ahead in his mind.
He clearly remembered that the location of the Crooked Neck Tree was the beginning of the second level of the mountain road.
A hundred feet ahead, there is a crack where the top of the Langya platform collapsed due to wind and rain.
The crack is quite large, like a valley, and there are traces of erosion on the mountain road, so the former army used stones to pad the road!
Not long after, Baizhang had arrived. Li Chao slowed down and looked carefully to the left side of the mountain road.
The next moment, he was stunned again.
According to previous calculations, we must have reached the crack at this time. Even if there is an error due to the fog being shrouded and the reference object being lost, it will not be too big.
After all, it's just a hundred feet away.
However, at this time, the left side of the mountain road was still an earth wall with crooked trees, and there was no shadow of the wide crack at all!
Li Chao didn't believe in evil, so he lowered his head and looked at the ground. The former army used a lot of stone slabs to repair the mountain road, which stretched for about ten feet.
If the distance is a hundred feet, Li Chao can calculate the error of more than ten feet. Li Chao is willing to die!
However, what surprised Li Chao was that there was not a single stone slab on the mountain path, only sand and gravel!
Moreover, he had clearly walked through this place just now, but there were no traces of ruts left on the mountain road. On the contrary, the horse hoof prints left by the former army were faintly visible.
He subconsciously looked to the right, which was the outside of the mountain road. The next moment, he was stunned as if he had been struck by lightning.
I saw a tree standing upright on the outside of the mountain road!
To say it is upright is actually not correct. Because this tree is crooked.
It’s that crooked-necked tree that’s perfect for hanging!
At this moment, Li Chao really had the urge to take off the silk ribbons that bound his armor and hang himself up.
Why does this tree appear here again?
"Captain Qi, have you lost your way again?" Hu Hai's gloomy voice sounded again, and Li Chaoru was struck by lightning, and a bright light flashed in his heart.
He suddenly reached into his arms, and because the three layers of heavy armor were tightly bound, his move looked like catching lice.
With great difficulty, he took out a bamboo tube from his arms, pulled out the stopper, and poured the powder inside into his mouth.
"General, I may have been poisoned!" He said to Hu Hai seriously.
Hu Hai watched with cold eyes as he sprayed out a cloud of yellow mist, and a spicy and strange aura began to fill the air. He couldn't help but snorted coldly.
At this moment, he just wanted to curse.
Are you poisoned?
I'm the one who fell into your trap, okay?
