Vol 2 Chapter 1037: Send Slave Yirong to Yanmen

Binzhou, Yanmen.
A majestic mountain range, spanning hundreds of miles, guards the northern part of this state and becomes the natural boundary between the two civilized areas of farming and nomadism. There is a grand canyon in the mountains, which stretches for dozens of miles. Between the canyons, crossing the north and south, it is the Yanmen, known as the Xiongguan of the north, the general of the Han Dynasty, Zhidu, and the general of the Warring States period, Li Mu, guarding here, and Liu Laozhi ’s ancestor Liu Xi, before the Western Jin At that time, he also served as the Yanmen Taishou. Over the millennia, generations of famous Han family have left their names here, and this majestic city gate is also the best proof of this period of history.
Outside the city gate to the south, tens of thousands of people focused on the open space outside the city. Temporary residences surrounded by tents and carts were everywhere. Even many cattle and sheep brought by Hu merchants were in the city. There are captives on the pastures a few miles away, and the wind blows the grass is low. What you see are the white flowers and cattle and sheep. People will have the illusion of whether they are in the grassland or the Central Plains?
In addition to these merchants, more people are pushing unicycles, carrying packages, dragging their homes, helping the elderly and young children, all covered with dust and weather.
Just above a large open space outside the South Gate, surrounded by railings, dozens of merchant-like Hu people, with hundreds of sturdy guards, sat in more than twenty sheds, with long lines in front of them. From time to time, some people enter the shed, often a family of three or four people come in, with children, and when they come out, only the couple is weeping.
Liu Yu is a sheepskin jacket, carrying a hunting bow, wearing a human skin mask on her face, dressed as a black-faced man in his thirties, and Murong Lan Jingchai skirt as a yellow-skinned skinny The ordinary woman, who followed Liu Yu, even deliberately concealed her figure, but among the ordinary people, Liu Yu only looked at that height of more than eight feet, and it seemed to be extraordinary and majestic. .
It has been more than a month since I came out of the secret base in Yecheng. After Liu Yu and Murong Lan changed their appearance, in order to avoid the bandits of horsemen, thieves, and chaos between Hebei and Binzhou, they went out day and night. Taking a small path, thanks to Muronglan ’s previous trips between Kanto and Guanzhong, he knew the mountain road of 800 kilometers of Taihang, but even so, he was in distress several times on the road, in order not to reveal his whereabouts, touch To the robbers who hijacked the road, neither of them kept their mouth alive, so they traveled all the way to this Yanmen Pass. Once they passed this city pass, it was the boundary of the southern part of the desert.
Liu Yu looked at the high city gate and sighed: "It is said that Yanmen is the place where the husband is guarded, and the place where Wanfu is not opened. When I saw it today, it was indeed consistent with the rumors. It is no wonder that this threshold can block Hu from the millennium. Riding countless times. Just how could this place be like a big rally, with so many people? "
Murong Lan smiled slightly and whispered: "Because there is a war here, a large number of people want to escape to the grassland."
Liu Yu froze for a moment: "What new information do you get again?"
A few beggar-like people around looked at Liu Yu. Murong Lan's brows were slightly frowned, and he took Liu Yu to a secluded place, looked around, and confirmed that there was no one before saying: "Yesterday In the evening, I got a secret report. The Xiyan Army of Guanzhong had all crossed the Yellow River to the area of ​​Chaibi in Hexi, and Fu Pi of Jinyang also became an emperor after Fu Jian ’s death. Xiyan will fight forever. "
Liu Yu surprised: "Xi Yan crossed the Yellow River so quickly? Isn't Qin defeated just after the attack?"
Murong Lan sighed: "Yeah, Gao Gai's whole army was annihilated, and the soldiers surrendered, and then Yang Ding fled to Qiu Chi and returned to his country. It is supposed that Xi Yanjun should not cross the river at this time, but they just passed Is n’t it Yao Yao Qiang who feared the post-Qin? "
Liu Yu shook his head thoughtfully: "No, Xiyan Army is much stronger than Qiang Army, and Murongyong's general will never be under Yao Chang. They will not be intimidated, nor will they cross the river in advance due to lack of food. Because Binzhou is not a wealthy and food-rich place, it is likely that Gao Gai ’s defeat was a conspiracy by Murong Yong himself to be the Xiyan Lord. If Fu Pi is clever, he should stay in the wild and defend several big cities to avoid fighting against the backwaters. The fierce Xiyan decisive battle is what we are doing now, I am afraid that we will lose the last point of the former Qin. "
Murong Lan nodded and looked at the crowded people in the south of the city. From the south and the southwest of the official road, there was an endless stream of people coming. She sighed: "The battle in this world is the people who suffer. There was originally a chaos in the north, Hebei and Guanzhong were adult hells, and only Binzhou was still a peaceful land, but this tranquility and calm were about to be broken. People everywhere, regardless of Hanhu, wanted to escape from Guan, even if It is a state of tigers and wolves outside Nassai, and it is also safer than here. "
Liu Yu frowned: "Just let Pi Pi let the people out of the customs?"
Muronglan said in a straight voice: "Because Fu Pi needs the help of the Dugu Department, he also knows that there is no strong prairie cavalry to help, and it is very difficult to deal with the Xiyan army led by the famous Murong Yong, and the condition of the Liu Gu Department That is, let the northern pass of Yanmen and Mayi be released, and people in Bingzhou will not be prevented from coming. "
Liu Yu shook his head: "This Liu Xian has some eyes ~ EbookFREE.me ~ In times of trouble, he does not go south to rob, but to take in the population of the original investment, and in time, the artisans of the Central Plains can improve their skills on the grassland. , And the population has also grown, it can be said that the soldiers do not have the blood to take advantage of it, and they have not been hated like the previous Nanxia Huqi. "
Muronglan smiled and said: "It's just the old way to learn from our Murong ancestors. When we Murong was in chaos in the Central Plains, we were recruiting Han Chinese scholars to flee, so we could build our own empire. Liu Xian stayed in Monan after all. And know this too. Do n’t take advantage of it at this time and do n’t know how long it will take.

Liu Yu hooked the corner of his mouth and looked at the big fence in the distance, frowning because he saw many children aged six or seven, who were trapped together and wept more than a few hundred steps apart. Locally, some Han women faced these children, weeping and washing their faces with tears. He wondered: "What is going on?"
A trace of anger flashed on Murong Lan's face, and said bitterly: "It's about those caravans who only accept children and women, don't be adults."
Liu Yu's face changed and he was about to speak, but he heard a gong ringing at Nanguan Chengtou, and a big voice rang out: "All back, Shang Shuling, the Prime Minister Wang, has something to say to Er!"
