The World of Yellow Sky

The more he thought about it, the more nervous Xu An became. The hands holding the reins even turned white from the knuckles due to the force, and there was dense sweat on his forehead.

The bow did not turn back, and now hundreds of yellow turbans, Liu Pi and Gong were watching Xu An, and if they succeeded in capturing the level, Xu An could logically become the leader of this army.

Today, the large and small bandits in the Taihang Mountains are as dense as the hair of a cow, but they are like scattered sand. Zhang Yan, the leader of the Montenegrin Army in history, is now only a small bandit leader.

He subdued these hundreds of soldiers on the battlefield, as well as Liu Pi and Gong Du, two yellow turban generals. Judging from the news of the Taihang Mountains obtained from Zhang Liang at that time, not to mention the vertical and horizontal Taihang Mountains, at least self-protection is more than enough. .

In addition, there are several Yellow Turbans in the Taihang Mountains, many of which are devout Taiping Taoists. Xu An is now the commander of the Yellow Turban Canal, and he has a book called Taiping Jing by his side.

Liu Pi and Gong both are also commanders of Qu, and they are also well-known in Taiping Road. With more than [-] Yellow Angels, it is not impossible to unite the Yellow Turbans in the Taihang Mountains.

Near Jingxing Pass, the lights on Jingxing Pass were a little dim. An old soldier on the wall was dozing off against the city wall with a long spear in his arms. Half-sleeping and half-awake, the sound of horses’ hooves on the galloping road was particularly loud outside Jingxing Pass. clear.

The old soldier woke up suddenly, his spear almost dropped, and he almost fell to the ground.

Xu An, who was standing outside the gate on a stage horse, also noticed the movement on the city wall. The nervousness made his palms sweat a little, and Xu Anqiang shouted, "The station official document."

The old soldier was awakened in his sleep, and he was also agitated for a while. He raised his eyes and looked outside the pass. A man dressed as a postman was waiting at the pass.

"The genius has just dawned, why is the official document so urgent?" The old soldier responded with dissatisfaction, and kicked the other Guan soldier to wake up.

Another Guan soldier yawned, rubbed his eyes and muttered: Then a basket was hung from the wall.

After turning over and dismounting, Xu An wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, put the station token in his hand, etc. into the basket, and said in his mouth: "The Shangguan ordered me to be a post soldier and to obey orders."

The hanging basket was put up, and the city wall was silent again. The mountain wind was blowing. At this time, Xu An only felt dry and his mouth was dry. Come.

"squeak--"

There was a sour sound, and then the heavy door was slowly opened, and two old guards in leather armor walked over sleepily, one person still holding the post station token that Xu An put in the basket. .

Xu An led the horse and walked over. After the old soldier put the things in his hand into Xu An's arms, he waved to Xu An to leave.

After taking the token, Xu An didn't rush to pass the customs. He stepped forward and approached the old soldier, squeezed out a smile and said, "Can you use the excuse of drinking water? You were in a hurry when you came."

The old man tilted his head and glanced at Xu An, Xu An was standing in place with a stiff smile on his face.

His clothes were dusty and dusty, and the horsehair on the horse next to him was also covered with a lot of dust. The more the old guard looked at it, the more he felt that the eyebrows of this postman were a bit similar to his own son, and he couldn't help but think of his military service abroad. son.

Laozu's son has followed General Huangfu to quell the rebellion since the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

The old soldier's heart softened, and he didn't assume the impatient posture before, and said slowly: "It's not easy to go out, see you all the way, come with me."

Xu An was relieved when he saw that the old soldier's tone was a little slower. After the old soldier spoke to another Han army on duty, he led Xu An into Jingxing Pass.

Xu An followed behind the old soldier and looked around at the surrounding buildings. Not far from the closing door was the stairs to the upper gate. The small building on the gate was still bright. There must be a sergeant on duty. It was the soldier who opened the door before.

The old soldier took Xu An around a corner and looked around for a while, but after not finding anyone else in sight, Xu An first took out the cloth strip from his arms and put it over the mouth of the stage horse behind him. The movement was slight, and the old pawn in front of him didn't notice it at all.

Xu An slowly put his hand on the hilt of the dagger at his waist, then gently lowered the reins that held the stage horse, slowly pulled out the dagger, and stared at the old pawn who was leading the way in front of him.

The old pawn walked in front of him without warning, and said to himself, "I also have a son about the same age as you..."

The old pawn opened his mouth suddenly, but Xu An was startled. Before he had time to think, Xu An stepped forward, and the short knife in his hand pierced through the back of the old pawn's neck, and the sharp point of the knife came out from his throat.

The old pawn's voice stopped abruptly.

Xu An quickly stepped forward and supported the old soldier's corpse, which was about to fall to the ground, and slowly placed it on the ground. Blood flowed from the old soldier's throat along the tip of the short knife.

Although fighting on the battlefield is far more dangerous than this, Xu An's heart is still beating wildly at this time. He leads the stage horse and ties it to a lamp post. Xu An pulls out the knife around his waist and goes around again. .

There was silence all over the place, the sky in the distance was getting brighter and brighter, Xu An was holding the ring head knife close to the city wall, stepping up the steps step by step, just a few dozen steps, Xu An seemed to have walked for a century, obviously thick The blue bricks are like walking on thin ice.

And just as Xu An was holding the cold ring-head knife and silently standing outside the gate of the city tower, the two Han army sergeants who had just opened the city gate were in a state of half-dreamer and half-awake.

Outside the pass, Gong Du and Liu Pi were also nervously looking at Jingxing Pass, whose outline was gradually clear in the distance.

Chapter 22 Jingxing Pass

The sergeant of Jingxing Pass is really unguarded, and even the door is just hidden.

Through the crack of the door, Xu An saw two sergeants who were sitting on the ground and were sleeping soundly, with their weapons aside.With a ruthless heart, Xu An kicked open the wooden door, and rushed into the house with three steps and two steps.

The movement of the wooden door being kicked open was particularly harsh in the silent Jingxing Pass. The two Han army sergeants sitting on the ground were shaken and woken up in an instant, but before the two Han army sergeants could figure out the situation, A sharp ring-head knife had already cut through a sergeant's throat.

Blood spurted out like arrows, and a long strip of scarlet color appeared throughout the house.

Another Han army sergeant looked at the sudden scene in front of him, and couldn't help being scared and pale, trying to stand up and escape this hellish scene.

But his legs didn't obey him, and he fell to the ground. He opened his mouth to speak and beg for mercy, but he didn't make any sound. He was scared by this sudden scene.

But immediately he didn't need to be afraid anymore, because the sharp ring-shaped knife almost cut off half of his neck, and the blood gushed out one after another along the gap, flowing down the shoulders and waist and belly on the ground. Blood pool.

"Third brother, why is it so noisy?" But the sergeant who stayed downstairs heard the sound and shouted loudly, and Shan Feng came over with his voice fluttering.

It's a pity that his third brother has already stepped into Huangquan with another sergeant, and it is impossible to respond again.Xu An took out the yellow cloth in his arms, quickly tied it to a long spear in the house, and made a simple small flag.

This was the signal that he had agreed with Liu Pi and Gong. As long as he saw the yellow flag waving on the city wall, the plan was a success.

"Success!"

After Liu Pi looked at the yellow flag dancing on the wall, he pulled out the knife around his waist and jumped out of the bushes. All the yellow angels who were hiding behind all kinds of cover also pulled out their hands. Blades.

Not only the twenty or so Yellow Angels brought by Liu Pi and Gong Du, but the remaining two hundred Yellow Angels hidden in the woods near the river beach also jumped out. Fifteen cavalrymen took the lead and rushed towards Jingxing Pass.

Suddenly, the sound of messy footsteps came, and it seemed that two or three people were coming towards the tower. Xu An's expression changed. Could it be that there is a sergeant on duty on the wall?

But at this time, Liu Pi, Gong Du, and the others were still some distance away from the gate. If they were to close the gate, they would be all in vain.

A well-dressed Han army with a sword and shield and two sergeants rushed over from the side of the wall. The bloody smell in the air made the sergeants feel the danger.

"Go beat the drums, and follow me to the tower." The commander of the Han army gave an order to the two sergeants behind him, and then slowly stepped up to the steps of the tower with a sword and shield.

The Han army commander and a sergeant looked at the tower in front of him intently, but he did not watch out for Xu An who was hiding under the wall.

When the body of Han Jun Shi Chang entered Xu An's field of vision, Xu An rushed towards Han Jun Shi Chang like a tiger descending the mountain. The huge impact force knocked Han Jun Shi Chang down, and then he only felt a wave in his waist. Severe pain came, and the strength in the body seemed to be suddenly evacuated.

Xu An rolled and stood up, but the Han army was still standing there, as if stunned, and Xu An would not give him a chance.

Xu An stepped forward quickly, and the short knife in his hand was directly inserted into the sergeant's chest.

All this happened in a short period of time. The Han army sergeant who was instructed to play the drums hadn't gone far. Hearing the movement behind him and looking back, he was so scared that he almost lost his mind.

In front of him, a man covered in blood was coming straight at him with a cold dagger, and behind him were two robes lying in a pool of blood.

The sergeant screamed, unable to resist the slightest spirit, just wanted to quickly escape from the wall, but it was too late.

After running a few steps, a sharp dagger pierced through his abdomen. He fluttered his hands in the air a few times, and then touched his abdomen, trying to grab the dagger that pierced his abdomen.

Xu An turned his wrist, and the sharp short knife smashed the internal organs of the Han army sergeant's abdominal cavity to a pulp. perished.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The drums of war still sounded, but Liu Pi and Gong Du had already led the Yellow Angels into Jingxing Pass. The wolf-like Yellow Angels had already rushed to the tower, and several Han Chinese came from the other side. All the soldiers and sergeants fell under the swords of the yellow angels.

The guard of Jingxing Pass, Ji He, was awakened from his dream by the rapid sound of drums. Before he had time to put on his armor, he came into the courtyard wearing a robe, and several guards around the night vigil also ran over.

"What's going on? The thieves in the mountains want to break through?!" Ji He pulled a soldier and asked loudly.

The soldier replied tremblingly, "It seems to be the sound of drums from the east..."

"East?"

Ji He was stunned for a moment, when the drums from the east suddenly stopped abruptly, and then there was a sudden scream of killing outside the house, the sound of weapons colliding with Jin Ge, and the tragic screams of people dying before they died from time to time.

"follow me!"

Ji He said something vicious, lifted the halberd beside him, opened the door and walked out.

At this time, Jingxing Pass was already in chaos, and there were cries and wailing sounds all around, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

Ji He saw the knights holding torches and wrapped in yellow scarves walking through the station and throwing torches into the house. After the Han soldiers who were forced out of the house ran out of the gate in a hurry, they were beheaded by the yellow angels who had been waiting for a long time. kill.

"die!"

The two yellow angels jumped out one left and one right, and the two ring-head knives stabbed Ji He's chest and abdomen from two tricky angles respectively.

At the juncture of life and death, Ji He turned the iron halberd in his hand and swept to the right, pulling a soldier beside him to block the ring-headed sword from the left.

The iron halberd slashed away with great strength, almost severing half of the waist and abdomen of the yellow angel on the right.

On the other side, the yellow angel's ring-headed knife passed through the body and armor of the Han soldiers.

The ring head knife in the hand of the yellow angel had been castrated, but it still scratched Ji He's left arm.

Ji He, whose left arm was scratched, was fierce and violent, and he used the force of his hand to knock the wailing Han soldier to the ground. on the ground.

The iron halberd smashed directly into the face of the Yellow Angel, and the Yellow Angel's head exploded like a watermelon, and the red and white things flowed all over the ground.

Just, look up again.

The yellow angels wearing yellow scarves and sackcloth had already surrounded him. Leng Sensen's ring-head knife flashed a cold light, and the screams of killing suddenly started, and dozens of yellow angels had already rushed forward.

Chapter 23 Xu An

The ring-head sword has been retracted from its scabbard. Xu An stood beside the crenel of the city wall of Jingxing Pass, feeling the gentle mountain wind blowing across his face. In front of him was the vast river beach and the surrounding quiet valleys, as if he was a peerless person. Famous paintings are generally intoxicating.

I can't remember how long I haven't seen such a scenery comfortably.

The noise behind him was slowly dissipating, Xu An took a last look at the scenery in front of him, and turned around resolutely, it was the Jingxing Pass that had become a sea of ​​fire.

When Xu An was about to walk down the wall, all the yellow angels were already waiting for him under the wall. When they saw Xu An appear, all the yellow angels cheered at Xu An with their swords high. Even Gong Du and Liu Pi were among the crowd cheering loudly.

After half a year of living in ups and downs, he finally has an army that belongs to Xu An completely. Although the number of this army is still small, and although the generals of this army are not some peerless generals, it is enough, at least for now. enough.

The corpses of the Han army at Jingxing Pass were piled up in a mess by the Yellow Angels, and several surviving Han soldiers were still beside the feet of everyone who was tied up with five flowers.

Xu An walked to the front of the hill, looked at the Han army in various forms of death, and glanced at the yellow turban crowd who seemed to be walking out of the pool of blood. He raised his right hand high and clenched his fist to stop the cheers of the yellow turban crowd. ll.

When the cheers dissipated, only the crackling sound of the flames licking the wood was left in Jingxing Pass. The mountain wind blew past, carrying the fallen leaves from the mountains and flying in the sky in Jingxing Pass.

The sun has jumped out from the surrounding mountains, and the warm sun in the early morning caresses the Jingxing Pass.

Everyone was looking at Xu An, Xu An raised his eyes to look around at everyone, and then slowly pulled out the ring-shou knife around his waist, stroking the cold ring-shou knife in his hand, Xu An felt a sense of peace of mind again.

He couldn't remember when he felt that the coldness of the weapon was the warmth, perhaps when he was just about to be cut through his chest by the long sword of the Han army.

Taking another look at the mountain of corpses formed by the Han army, Xu An's eyes revealed heart-pounding murderous intent. .

Xu An raised the severed head high with his hands, and his voice was as cold as it came from Jiuyou, and he shouted sharply: "Cut off the heads of all the Han soldiers at Jingxing Pass, and build a Jingguan at the pass!"

The Yellow Turbans swarmed up like a pack of hungry wolves, dragging out the Han army piled up into a mountain of corpses one by one, and then chopped off their heads, and the headless corpses were thrown around like garbage.

A low "Jing Guan" was stacked up in a short time, and the gatekeeper of Jingxing placed Ji He's grim head on top of the "Jing Guan".

……

Jingxing Pass temporarily became the camp of the Yellow Turbans. The warehouse of Jingxing Pass was opened by these moth thieves, and the flames in the pass had been extinguished.

At this time, the school grounds of the Han army became the canteen of the Yellow Turbans. The bowls of the Yellow Turbans were filled with sweet corn porridge and bright red meat, and everyone was gobbling down their mouths full of oil.

From the defeat in Xia Quyang all the way to Jingxing Pass, the team finally had the sound of laughter, no longer lifeless and lifeless.

On the side of the school grounds, Xu An, Liu Pi, and Gong Du were sitting around a bonfire to keep warm. A piece of dried meat was being roasted on the bonfire. beside .

Xu An used the short knife on the side to cut off a piece of dried meat, and the fat slipped from the blade and dripped into the bonfire, causing a surge of excitement.

Beside him were three Han army sergeants kneeling beside them with loose hair and tied with five flowers. They could not help swallowing when they smelled the aroma of barbecue lingering around them.

"Want to eat?" Xu An turned his head, looked at the three Han soldiers on one side, and handed the meat with a short knife.The Han army was frightened and trembled, and fell to the side.

He knew that it was this smiling person who piled up the heads of hundreds of Han troops at Jingxing Pass to form the sensational "Jingguan".

Even his most feared general, Ji He, became a member of the "Jing Guan", and now Xu An in his eyes is no different from the evil ghost in the ghost legend.

Xu An took off the meat from the short knife and stuffed it into the mouth. He looked down at the three Han army sergeants at his feet and said lightly, "If you don't want to be piled into the 'Jingguan', please tell me about the bandits in the Taihang Mountains."

In addition to the person who was frightened, there were also two sergeants of the Han army, one of whom was younger.

The surrounding Yellow Turbans saw that the Han army was crying so hard, and they all gathered to look at it, pointing to the Han army on the ground and discussing it, and from time to time burst into laughter.

The other Han soldier had flushed cheeks, smelled of alcohol, and looked drunk, but he did not shy away from Xu An's fierce gaze. Hearing Xu An's question, he first snorted in disdain, and then scolded him. : "Shuzi, you are barking wildly, don't dirty your eldest father's ears, but please die quickly."

The red-faced sergeant scolded, then looked at the crying sergeant and scolded: "Without half the air of my Han family man, how can a slave-faced servant knee have the face to meet your ancestors!"

Xu An's smile slowly narrowed, and he slowly pulled out the ring-sheaded knife from his waist, which was still glowing with a cold light, without waiting for the red-faced sergeant to speak.

The ring-head knife slashed down, and the sharp ring-head knife easily cut off the arm of the red-faced sergeant. The red-faced sergeant who lost his arm fell to the ground in severe pain and rolled desperately.

Looking at the red-faced sergeant lying on the ground and howling, Xu An actually felt a bit of relief in his heart.

The gushing blood splattered the Han army who was beside him with tears and tears all over his body. The Han army cried even louder. Tears were mixed with blood and flowed out from the cheeks. There was a louder roar of laughter.

The ice-cold ring-head knife was placed on his neck, and Xu An stared at the Han army sergeant in front of him and continued to ask, "He won't say it, why don't you say it?"
