Reject Liang, as the name suggests, resist the Liang Kingdom. It sounds like a big name but it is actually just a checkpoint with only a few daily personnel.

Although the relationship between Jin State and Liang State is not good, and Liang State's General Zuo has clamored to destroy Jin State more than once, Jin State firmly holds the thigh of Zhou State, and even the more distant Song State also licks It's not bad, so Liang Guo can only scream fiercely, and grit his teeth behind his back.

Moreover, although Liang State has eight counties and fifty-eight counties, its strength is not much stronger than that of Jin State. Coupled with Jin State's almost oppressive mobilization policy, it will definitely be a lose-lose outcome for both sides.

As time went by, the leader of the Liang Kingdom was too lazy to bother with it and turned to business westward, which resulted in a rare peace on the Jin-Liang border.

Ke Ren, the track commander of Juliang Post, is just a descendant of a declining family. It has been almost five years since he was transferred to Juliang. It seems as if he has been abandoned here. Even the war between the Kingdom of Jin and Peng Shu did not have any impact on this place. Influence.

At this time, there was smoke rising from the Juliang post, and Ke Ren was lying on the rocking chair, with a cattail leaf fan in one hand and a teapot in the other, feeling very uncomfortable.

Humming an unknown tune, the white clouds in the blue sky drifted by without even the wind blowing.

"Trackmaster, the meal is ready."

A soldier came over and said.

Juliang Post might be more appropriately called Juliang Village. The families of the soldiers were not far away. They later moved in. Ke Ren was no exception. His seven-year-old son not far away was the king of the children here. .

"knew."

But Ke Ren's expression changed slightly as soon as he finished speaking.

"What happened to the track leader?"

Ke Ren asked with some uncertainty: "Listen carefully, is there any sound?"

"Voice?" the soldier asked in confusion.

"Yes, the sound of chariots, and more than one." Ke Ren became more and more certain when he said this.

He had also made meritorious deeds on the battlefield, and he only had three soldiers' heads in his tent in exchange for this rail length.

It's just that the long-term comfort has almost buried some things in my bones.

"Quick, notify everyone and be alert!"

Ke Ren's face was full of sorrow. He longed to make great achievements, but the Juliang post has become a village, and his wife and children are all here to make achievements like a hammer.

The soldiers were also shocked and ran back quickly.

Suddenly there was a panic in Juliang Sentence.

Ke Ren hurriedly put on his armor, stepped on his long sword, and came to the low sentry wall.

As far as the eye can see, there is a lush green landscape with no sign of it.

Everyone was holding the weapons in their hands tightly, and the cold sweat on the sides of their cheeks couldn't stop flowing down.

"Track chief, the sound seems to be coming from behind."

Ke Ren blushed when he heard it. He naturally heard it too, but he was just a little embarrassed.

"Did you remember to switch defenses?"

According to Jin Army regulations, such border checkpoints are usually replaced every three years, but Juliang was obviously forgotten.

"Follow me and line up to greet you. Hurry up and pack them up neatly."

Naturally, it was Gao Yuan and others who came to this news.

The mountain road was rugged. At this moment, Gao Yuan was relieved when he looked at the flag of the Jin Kingdom flying on the checkpoint in front. Fortunately, the mission assigned by His Highness was almost stable, but he knew that the number of Jin troops was not even a fraction of his own.

Looking back, I saw more than two hundred elite troops advancing in an orderly manner, and five chariots passed by in sequence. Although they were running all night, the morale of the sergeants was still high, which made Gao Yuan feel a little proud.

"Report~"

A soldier rushed over and shouted a long chant that turned Gao Yuan's complacency into seriousness.

"What's up?"

"Reporting to the company commander, Ke Ren, the sentry track commander of Juliang, is waiting in line at the front."

"Yeah." Gao Yuan was noncommittal. A track leader and a transparent place like Juliang Shao were naturally incomparable to him.

"Pass the order, the army will be on guard after entering Juliang, and let the people on Juliang post prepare to eat forage."

Gao Yuan was not polite and gave the order directly.

Guan Cheng naturally didn't know that on their way westward, Liu Dong's back-up staff had already begun to arrange their pockets and wait for them to dig in. At this time, Guan Cheng was holding Yu Fa with a happy face, and there was a hint of expectation in his expression.

"Your Highness, what Your Majesty said is absolutely true. Miss Ling'er and the others are less than ten miles away in the southwest."

"Very good, very good!"

"Who is Ling'er?" Xiao Tan was keenly aware that this name must be unusual.

Guan Cheng turned around and laughed and explained: "Linger is your future sister-in-law."

After saying that, Guan Cheng stopped talking and asked: "Do you know how many people, horses and food are left?"

"Back to Your Highness, there are less than four hundred men and horses, and a lot of food, grass and baggage are missing. The maps are all there, but most of the jewels are buried for future use."

Guan Cheng was even more overjoyed, "It's really my destiny to be with you. Let's go and join him quickly."

Yu Fa was also happy and quickly agreed, and the group of people moved rapidly towards the southwest.

Naturally, what Guan Cheng and others had could not be hidden from Du Tan's scouts. Although thousands of people cannot seal the mountain, there is still no problem in tracking some traces.

Soon in Du Tan's big tent, Liu Dong and Du Tan analyzed the whereabouts of Guan Cheng through the news.

"Why take the southwest route?" Liu Dong was a little confused.

"Indeed, the Jin army is not in a safe situation right now, but they chose the long way. Could it be a scam?"

Liu Dong nodded and said: "It is indeed suspicious, but how many more people can Guan Cheng'er have in his hands? No matter where he goes, as long as he goes west, he must pass Juliang, otherwise he will have to walk hundreds of miles, which will make it even more difficult. It's dangerous. My young master has already asked Gao Yuan to go to Juliang, and he must have arrived by now. This means that the last opening has been blocked by us. Guan Cheng didn't say that Gao Yuan had just arrived and broke through, but instead took a detour. This is because he is afraid of us. Not prepared enough?"

Both of them were deep in thought, and it was obvious that Guan Cheng's behavior puzzled them.

After a while, Du Tan responded: "Our troops are a hundred times stronger than the enemy. Why are we guessing here? If we catch up, I don't believe that with his few men and horses, it is possible to make a huge difference."

Liu Dong agreed: "What the general said is true, but we were too cautious."

"Sir, in a moment, I will order the army to speed up the pursuit."

A big net is gradually tightening, and every line on the net is like a sharp sword cutting through all obstacles.

When the sky was getting dark, Guan Cheng finally saw the beauty he had been thinking about day and night. The temporary camp of the Jin army was full of laughter and laughter. Everyone was celebrating the reunion. The soldiers sitting by the fire told each other about the day's battle. Miss the late Pao Ze and then brag about it.

There is still no shortage of meat among the Jin army, and the aroma spreads among the crowd, stimulating the taste buds and making the lively atmosphere more complete.

Cao Ling'er and others gathered in Guan Cheng's tent. After listening to Guan Cheng's account, everyone looked at Guan Tan aside and sighed for a moment.

Who would have thought that the little girl from more than ten years ago would survive, and her appearance would be touching.

"In this way, the queen's soul can rest in peace in heaven."

Echoes rang out from the crowd, with many emotions.

"Your Highness might as well set up a memorial platform after returning to Shu to warn the world, but now you should send people back to Beijing to ask for a title from His Majesty the Human Emperor."

Guan Cheng naturally agreed, and it was natural to have a title. His biological sister was Jinzhiyuye. How could she continue to be anonymous after having been alone for more than ten years.

"Everyone, we have fought hard for many days since entering the Kingdom of Jin, traveling hundreds of miles. The soldiers have worked hard, and the princes have worked hard. How about congratulating Her Highness the Princess today to relieve the fatigue of many days?" Guan Chengduan sat in the middle and said with a smile.

But Bu Wang stood up and said: "Your Highness is inappropriate."

"Oh? What's wrong?"

"It is naturally a happy event for Your Highness to meet the princess, and celebrations are appropriate. However, the Jin Army is currently pursuing them urgently. Doesn't this mean that Ming told the Jin Army that I will wait here."

Guan Cheng smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I understand what you mean. Even if we hide our traces, how can we not be discovered at all with so many people and luggage?"

"In that case, why not boost morale."

Seeing Bu Wang and others, he wanted to persuade Guan Cheng to wave his hand and said: "I have decided that there is no need to say more. Besides, there is a bonfire outside the tent. It is no longer possible to hide. All we need to do is to strengthen our vigilance."

After hearing this, everyone had no choice but to agree.

Du Tan stood on the top of the mountain and looked out, his face a little ugly.

"General, what's the problem?"

Du Tan nodded and said in a deep voice: "Master, look over there."

Liu Dong looked over and heard Du Tan say: "Although I have divided many roads, there are not so many people in the southwest."

"Looking at the number of people on the fire, there may not be five or six hundred people."

Du Tan nodded and said: "In this case, the troops there are probably Jin troops."

"Jin Army?" Liu Dong was slightly shocked and said angrily: "Guan Cheng is so bold. Doesn't he look down on us?"

"The scouts must be back soon. If it is really the Jin army, then I will have to ask for advice and find out where our King Datong Jin's confidence comes from."

The breeze in the mountains gradually picked up and suddenly changed dramatically. The torches in the camp were blown violently, and the flames scattered in the air and then extinguished.

It was unusually quiet in the barracks, and a large number of golden soldiers were groping toward the southwest under the cover of night.

The ones at the front were Liu Dong and Du Tan.

Although the wind was strong, the moon was shining brightly in the sky, so the sight was barely enough. Everyone was connected with ropes, which made the speed much slower but also ensured that the soldiers would not fall behind and get lost.

The murderous aura spread out invisibly, but the Jin army seemed not to notice it.

In the big tent, Guan Cheng took out a jar of Ren Huang Zui and added several loads of water, but it still couldn't conceal its fragrance.

Even the soldiers on night watch had a bowl of light wine to ward off the cold and relieve fatigue.

Cao Ling'er and Guan Tan were whispering to the side, covering their mouths and snickering from time to time.

It seems as if the tragic war in recent days has nothing to do with everyone.

A soldier sneaked in quietly, whispered a few words in Guan Cheng's ear, and then slipped out again when no one was paying attention, but Guan Tan happened to see it.

"Everyone, drink up this cup!" Guan Cheng stood up and said loudly, holding up the wine glass in his hand with a smile on his face.

"Congratulations to the King of Jin and congratulations to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

There are only a dozen people in the tent, but these ten people are all people whom Guan Cheng can absolutely trust.

"I want to stay with you all until you get drunk and get rid of this bad luck. But before I finish my thoughts, the wine is gone. After you finish drinking this cup, you can only use water instead of wine!"

Naturally, no one would offend their boss, and no one would make any disrespectful remarks at this time.

What hilarity requires is an atmosphere.

Guan Tan approached Guan Cheng and asked with concern: "Brother, have you made arrangements?"

She knew very well that Guan Cheng was not out of wine.

Guan Cheng smiled and said: "You are still a lonely sister and you are attentive, but you can rest assured here for the time being. Get to know your future sister-in-law more and more, and wait and see what happens to the rest."

Not far from the Jin army camp, Du Tan wiped the sweat from his head and looked up at the still bright night in the sky and said solemnly: "We are finally here!"
