The boat was sailing against the current, and the boat was very slow. It was about to walk down in one day, but it was not possible to walk many miles. If it encountered a dangerous shoal, it would take even more than a boatman to drag it to get through. It was time-consuming and labor-intensive. It was really not easy. Xiao Wei and his team were more than ten.
It took nearly a month to start from Jingzhou, cross Wu Gorge, pass Xiling, and go up Qutang. Finally, it was early March of the 18th year of Hongxuan.
Seven arrived at the Baidi City, which belongs to Yuzhou.
It was about to go down, and there were countless hardships on the way. Fortunately, everything was still smooth and there were no big twists and turns. For Xiao Wei, being able to see the beautiful scenery of the Three Gorges was a good journey, but the boat arrived.
After Baidi City, a navy general who came to welcome him told the navy that the navy was unfavorable to fight with the enemy and failed to defeat the tenacious resistance of the Jiannan Navy. He could only station in Yuzhou. The navy currently moved from the Yangtze River to the Jinjiang River.
As for the land route, it was still smooth. King Xiang's army conquered more than a dozen military camps in succession and had already entered the Chengdu Plain. However, the vanguard army encountered a slight setback. The entire army had to station in Dongyang County outside Chengdu, with Dali and Jiannan Joint Army.
When confrontation occurs, although small-scale wars occur from time to time, they have never fought head-on.
Since the waterway has arrived in Chengdu, Xiao Weizi can do anything, so he refused the invitation of the navy general and sent his deputy minister of the Ministry of Rites Lu Minzhou to escort half of the military supplies to the Yuzhou Navy Camp, and he led a group of royal guards.
They and another deputy, Deputy Director of Liangyi Hall, Sun Zecheng, left the ship to land. The local officials of Baidi City came forward to collect hundreds of people and escort a lot of supplies along the Chengdu-Chongqing ancient road to head towards the front camp.
How ancient is the Chengdu-Chongqing ancient road is no longer verified. I only know that during the Warring States Period, it had already taken shape when Chu destroyed Bashu. Since Qin ruled the world, it has spent a lot of manpower and material resources to improve the Chengdu-Chongqing ancient road, and its full length
There are more than ten post stations in one thousand,080 miles. Later, due to the chaos of the Qin and Han Dynasties, this ancient road was abandoned for a while. After Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty destroyed Gongsun Shu, he issued an edict to repair the road and expand it.
, and then established. Although there were many additions in later generations, most of them were maintained on the basis of Emperor Wu of Han’s road construction. When the Dayin Dynasty emerged, the road was extremely prosperous, with traffic and constant business trips, becoming the most important ancient road in Sichuan.
When the chaos arose, Jiannan Town took advantage of the situation to rule Chengdu. The Chengdu-Chongqing Ancient Road sinks into a semi-barren state again. To this day, the stations on the ancient road no longer exist, only military camps stand
Between the mountains and ridges, after the beginning of spring, Xiang Wang's army followed this path and entered the Chengdu Plain. The remains of more than a dozen military camps on the way were still clearly visible.[
The ancient road is half-waste and it is rainy and rainy. It is a lot harder to walk along the way than to get on the water. In addition, there are grain transport teams traveling back and forth on this road from time to time. Xiao Wei and his party have to give in. That's it.
After walking and stopping, half a month passed, and only took more than half of the journey, we arrived at the midpoint of the Chengdu-Chongqing Ancient Road - Shuangfengyi.
Shuangfeng Post is an ancient post station, which has existed since the Eastern Han Dynasty. The reason why it is named Shuangfeng is that there are many sycamore trees in the mountains. Therefore, according to the old saying that Shuangfeng once rested here, hence the name Shuangfeng Mountain.
The post station at the foot of the mountain is also called Shuangfeng Post. Since the "Ruan" of Shunping, the ancient road has become increasingly popular and almost half of it was abandoned. However, Shuangfeng Post miraculously survived and became the only ancient road.
The station in operation was originally under the jurisdiction of Jiannan. After the Xiang Wang army conquered this place this spring, it did not abolish the station. It only replaced the original station with the old and weak soldiers in the army, which was still used as a way to receive passers-by officials.
It was a war, and there were quite a few horses and logistics supplies coming and going on the ancient road. However, because Shuangfeng Post was dilapidated, there were not many people who really chose to stay at the post station. Most of them lived in Shuangfeng Post next to the ancient road.
Feng Town has gone up. As for Xiao Wei, I don’t dislike it. I chose a pretty neat cross-yard and moved in. However, because the inn is limited, all the civil and military guards can only look for them next to the avenue.
A piece of open space was built up to build a camp, but fortunately it was not too far away, but it was still convenient to take care of it.
Since leaving Beijing in early November last year, it has been more than four months since I left Beijing. After the bumpy journey, Xiao Wei was still very tired even though he was strong and moved into the inn. He hurriedly washed up.
, So the cat took out the latest imperial palace newspaper on the couch, and studied it carefully - Xiao Wei left some people in Baidi City, and was responsible for receiving the latest imperial palace newspaper from the county government, and then delivered it with a quick horse.
In Xiao Wei's hands, even though that's the case, this newspaper came from nearly a month ago. The things on it were all old news. They were all big street goods. There was nothing particularly worth noting about, which was better than
For nothing, but for Xiao Wei, it is the only way to obtain information. Although the newspapers on hand have been studied many times, every time I look closely, I can have some new insights.
The battle for the throne in the capital is becoming more and more fierce, which can be seen from the appointment and removal of officials in the palace newspaper - officials who were originally affiliated with the prince's line are now almost gone, and they are Lian Tai.
The hard-core prince figure Chen Mingyuan, the Minister of the Pusi, was not spared. He was sent to the idle position of Sima, Dangzhou, Gunzhou. However, Fang Minwu, the leader of the princely party, still sat steadily on the throne of the Minister of Personnel. Here
There may be a big article in my head. Xiao Wei has been thinking about the mystery in his spare time these days, and there are quite a few ideas. Unfortunately, there is too little information, so it is really difficult to make an accurate judgment.
Xiao Wei hoped that Fang Minwu could go to his side. Before leaving the capital, he arranged a secret move to test. He also reminded Lin Chongming, who was staying in Beijing to pay attention to Fang Minwu's movements and did a lot of hard work. However, Xiao Wei himself also
I know that the hope is not too great. After all, it is like Fang Minwu, who is slim and unrestrained. As for Xiao Wei's forces, it is difficult to tempt him to take the bait. However, the two and six princes are more likely.
It's hard to say who can succeed.
"It's time to go, it's time to go!"
Just as Xiao Wei was so impressed with the newspaper, he suddenly heard a loud noise outside, and then a burnt smell floated in from the half-opening scent with the wind. Xiao Wei was shocked,
He jumped up on the couch, and didn't bother to put on the outside, so he picked up the soft sword placed on the head of the bed, and then jumped to the door. He just opened the door and saw that Yan Yunxiang had led several guards to rush.
Come.
"What's going on?" Xiao Wei glanced at everyone and asked calmly.
"Report to your Highness, a fire suddenly broke out in the front yard. My subordinates have sent people to inspect and have gone to the camp to send people to protect the enemy." Yan Yunxiang heard Xiao Wei's question, and hurriedly bowed and responded.
"Suddenly fire?" Xiao Wei looked at the fire in the front yard suspiciously, then looked up at the gloomy night sky with raindrops, and his mind suddenly became shaking - this rainy day, it was so wet everywhere, how could it be
If such a big fire is raised, someone must have set it on purpose, and most of the purpose of it is coming to it is for them!
"Retreat, evacuate immediately!" Xiao Wei has always been a decisive person. When he noticed the situation was strange, he did not dare to be negligent and immediately ordered to retreat.
"Your Highness..." Yan Yunxiang was stunned for a moment when he heard Xiao Wei's tone was wrong. He just opened his mouth to ask for a clear answer, but saw Xiao Wei suddenly waved his hand, and stopped and stared blankly.
Xiao Wei, who was listening in a slanted manner.
"It's too late, Yun Xiang, I immediately led all my brothers to leave the inn and rush back to the camp. You are not allowed to go back to the inn before dawn. Let's go!" Xiao Wei listened quietly for a while, took a deep breath and said slowly.
.
"Ah, your highness, you go first, and you will be cut off the rear for you!" As Xiao Wei said this, Yan Yunxiang naturally reacted, knowing that there must be a master coming to attack and kill him. As the commander of the guards, Yan
Yun Xiang was not willing to abandon his master and flee. He pulled out the horizontal knife from his waist and said firmly.
"Let's go! I can handle it. If you can't wait, it will become a burden. Let's go!"
Xiao Wei knew Yan Yunxiang's loyalty, but Xiao Wei knew more clearly that the person coming was a high-ranking person in the world, and it was not something that Yan Yunxiang and others who were good at fighting formations could handle.
It would be better to force them to leave the post station by saying harsh words. I think the enemy's target does not include Yan Yunxiang and others. At this time, they may still have a chance to escape.
As for Xiao Wei himself, he has to rely on the sword in his hand to speak.
"I will obey the order!"
Yan Yunxiang knew that his ability was not in the world's methods, and he was extremely angry, but he was able to do it again. His face twitched and gritted his teeth, put his knife into the sheath, responded, stomped his feet, and led Yan Iron Tower.
When the guard rushed out of the yard and ran out.[
"Since you are here, why bother hiding and coming out?"
Xiao Wei stood in the courtyard with a sword in one hand, watching Yan Yunxiang and others rush out of the yard. When he saw someone coming out to kill, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He raised his head and spoke aloud to invite him.
"Hahaha……"
A burst of laughter suddenly sounded in the dark, and then, seven or eight figures appeared on the courtyard wall and roof like ghosts, trapping Xiao Wei in the core from all sides.
Damn, this time it's a big trouble! Xiao Wei just saw the body movements of these people, and he knew that the people who came were all masters, and the worst one was at the peak of the second-grade level, and there were four or five first-grade level experts.
There are so many people, no wonder these people didn't stop Yan Yunxiang and others from evacuating. It was obvious that they could resolve the battle before Yan Yunxiang moved back to the rescue.
Facing so many masters alone, even though Xiao Wei was full of courage, at this moment, his palms couldn't help but sweat...
