Chapter 1178

After listening carefully to Tian Yu, Guo Jia said, "in this way, the general has not yet determined the condition of the ancient road, has he?"

After hearing this, Tian Yu blushed and said, "please forgive me. Up to now, I'm not sure which road is the ancient road of the state of Qin, and I don't know whether I can really enter the Shangdang basin from here. However, the general has sent someone to continue to explore. I just want to really confirm that it's impossible to get results in a few months."

"It's not a man who doesn't know why. The ancient road hundreds of years ago can't be explored for a moment and a half. However, the general still needs to step up his exploration. Of course, this matter needs to be kept secret." Huangfu Chaobo also knew that it was impossible to do something about it, so he waved his hand and said,

"king," Guo Jia got up and said, "after receiving the pigeon letter from the king, Weichen carefully considered the feasibility of this matter, and then sent a letter to Yuanzhi in Luoyang, asking him to go to CAI Zhonglang's ancient books to look for it carefully. A few days ago, Yuanzhi just gave Weichen the news."

"Yuan said frankly that he repeatedly confirmed from a large number of ancient books collected by Cai Zhonglang that the Qin army's invasion of Changping from Hedong at that time was Baixing, one of the eight Xings in Taihang. In the Warring States period, Baixing started from the city of hedongji in the west, reached mengmengmenguan in Hanoi County in the East, and in the middle was Changping in Shangdang county

"However, after the Qin Dynasty ruled the country, the western section of Baixing was reluctant to walk for a long time because of the dangerous roads. As time went by, there was no one walking in the western section of Baixing. Later, the emperor Gaozu replaced Qin Dynasty, and the western section of Baixing was almost abandoned. Since the Han Dynasty, the western section of Baixing has been forgotten by people for 400 years. Today, people all think that Baixing has been built since ancient times He went eastward to Lingchuan, then into the Dabao mountains, and then went south from Yuntai mountain to mengmen pass. "

"So, does the ancient road of Qin really exist?" Huang Fu asked in surprise;

"king!" At this time, Pang Tong came out and said, "can you remember that when you attacked Lujiang County, you led the troops to take part in the battle of Changping?"

"Huh?"

"At that time, in the copy, although I didn't go to the rear of the Qin army to see it, I knew that there was a road to the West in gaopingguan and kongcangling, and the supplies and support troops of the Qin army came from Hedong in the West. It can be seen that the ancient road in the west, as fengxiao said, really existed."

"Well, if there is such a road in the copy, then at least this road does exist in the big map. That is to say, even if there is no such road in use now, there are traces of such a road." Huangfu Chaobo hit each other with both hands and said excitedly: "therefore, our thinking is completely correct, and since Yuanzhi has found the relevant information from old man Cai's ancient books, it also proves the existence of this road from another aspect."

"Not bad!" Guo Jia and Pang Tong responded in unison;

"good, Shia!" Huangfu Chaobo road;

"Weichen is here!" As soon as Shi a heard this, he immediately set out on yingnuo road;

"this matter will be handled by shadow, and you will be in charge of it personally. With the help of the soldiers exploring the road ahead, you can find out the ancient western road of Baixing as soon as possible, and remember, you'd rather be slow, but you must ensure that it doesn't leak out!"

"Wei Chen understands that he would rather be slow, but he must also ensure that this matter will not be disclosed!"

"Well, marshal Zhang and general Hotan must fully cooperate. Remember, we still have enough time to ensure that our intelligence will not be compromised by other countries!" Huangfu Chaobo looked at Zhang Chao and Tian Yu and stressed once more, "no!" They agreed in unison;

"good. From tomorrow, general Tian Yu and general Le Jiu will accompany Gu to inspect the troops and defense arrangements in Hedong. The rest of them will go their own way. They don't have to accompany Gu to inspect everywhere." Huangfu Chaobo told the rest of humanity;

"no! I'll leave first! "

……

Ten days later, in the east of Duanshi County, in a valley more than ten miles east of Qinshui River, Shi a and his party, who led more than ten shadow guards, finally arrived here. In the valley, the taxi driver who had already got the news had already sent someone to wait there. Seeing Shi a coming in person, several people could not help but breathe a long sigh of relief. They all had to wait They are ordinary soldiers, but they have been in the mountains for a long time. In terms of ability, maybe even the hunters who have lived in the mountains for a long time are not as good as them. Now Shi a, an expert of this level, comes here in person, which makes them feel relieved. You know, several soldiers have been attacked by beasts in the mountains these days, for example Now with Shia, they are much safer.

"General Shi!" Several people immediately saluted Li a and said,

"well, what's the situation?" Shi a asked;

among them, the first humanitarian: "these days, the brothers have explored several valleys, and basically have determined that one of them should be the ancient road mentioned by general Tian, but there are too many beasts in the high mountains. Several of our brothers have been killed these days, so it's less than 20 miles now...""Huh?" Shi a was stunned. It took him more than half a month to get rid of several wrong routes and lost several soldiers. When he was about to open his mouth, he looked up and found that almost all the soldiers who came to meet him were injured, which meant that things might not be as simple as he thought.

After pondering for a moment, Shi a said: "it's hard for you. In the next few days, Ben will be in charge of this matter. This time, all the former rangers who came with Ben will come. If you go to battle to kill the enemy, you may not be as good as you, but you should be able to catch some beasts in the mountains."

Seeing that Shi a was not angry, several people were obviously relieved: "general Xie understands! General, please follow me. We must speed up our journey, or we won't be able to get to the camp before dark. "

"Lead the way ahead!"

The group soon disappeared in the vast mountains.

Less than half an hour later, Rao Shi'a was ready, but he was still surprised by the hardships along the way. They walked less than five li in the valley half an hour later. Compared with the army, it was already very fast, but compared with the speed of these Rangers, it was too slow to describe.

Although the pathfinders in front of them have found a way to walk in the valley, they are only able to walk. This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that they must guard against the attack of various beasts that may appear on both sides at any time.

Fortunately, as Shi a said, they were all masters of Rangers. They were able to walk around the world with their swords. They had their own ways to deal with the birds and beasts that suddenly attacked them. Along the way, it took more than half of the party's time just to cope with these sudden attacks. Fortunately, it was easy to cope with them every time, and no one was injured, which made several soldiers in front of them very happy.
