C3548 beacon smoke

"It's not that the time is not right yet! When the time comes, you won't be able to run! F * ck, it's finally time to collect our debts! "

The old herdsman rode his horse back to his home. Together with the dazed Meng people and his wife, a son and a daughter, the family began to move the firewood and cow dung that had passed the winter.

To the herdsmen, winter firewood and cow dung were the fate of their family. Their wife, who did not even know how to speak much Mandarin, immediately became anxious when she saw that the man wanted to pull away all the winter fuel.

However, he never would have thought that a man who had never shed tears or been red in his entire life would go crazy today. It was the first time the Whip of the Teary Whip had landed on a woman's body.

"Move!" All of you, move to Long Guard! Whoever dares to waste words, get the hell out of this house! "

The head of the family was really angry, and his wife and children did not dare to make a fuss. They rushed their horses and piled all the fuel in the house into the ruins.

The old man knelt at the edge of the ruins, kowtowed three times towards the east, and lit up the beacons. The Hami's Long Stream Guards who had been silent for a hundred years once again played a military role.

The chess pieces that the Old Ancestor laid down in the Western Regions would be able to turn the tables around even if they were turned into ruins a hundred years later!

"Child... Son, you remember... The Central Plains on the east side of Stellar Gorge is your homeland, that's a ancestral land! "Ancestral record …"

A woman from Northern Mongolia, who had never been to the Central Plains in her life, was kneeling beside a fire beacon with a man. "You are the daughter-in-law of the Central Plains …" "Remember, you're the Han Family's daughter-in-law!"

The Long Streams Guard suddenly lit up the beacons, the abutment and the grid smoke tower also suddenly lit up the beacons, the three early warning beacons finally alerted the rebel army in Hami City.

There were at least four thousand soldiers gathered in Hami City. The sentries on the city wall were the first to notice the roiling smoke coming from the south and east. The alarmed soldiers immediately sounded the alarm and the scouts on the fast horses rushed out of the city to scout the enemy territory.

The entire Hami was in a mess. In a small city with a population of fifty to sixty thousand, any movement would immediately spread throughout the entire city. No one knew what happened.

"What's wrong? Just what had happened …? There's smoke coming from outside the city! "

"Smoke? Wasn't that built by the Han people? "Could it be …"

The sound of horses galloping could be heard on the street as dirt and dirt flew all over the sky. Those who were chatting did not dare to speak as they fled towards their homes!

"Curfew time …" The entire city is under martial law... No one is allowed to leave the city. Everyone, go home … "

Hami's rebel army was not stupid, just by looking at the flames, they knew that something big had happened to the east. The four thousand rebel soldiers had not even returned from their scouts, and the main force had already started their journey.

Just as they were 10 li away from the city, they met two cavalrymen covered in blood who had escaped. Thousands of Purging Demons... We've already killed our way to the grid! "

"Our team of sixteen scouts managed to escape the two of us …"

"What?" Over a thousand Purging Demons have killed their way to the smoke screen? " The leader of the Hami rebel soldiers exclaimed in shock, "How did they get here? Did they fly over here? "

"Could it be that Stellar Gorge did not defend? "How is this possible …"

Regardless of whether you believe it or not, Lang Yan will not lie. The furious rebel leader pulled out his waist blade and roared, "We four thousand warriors, can't we eat these thousand Purging Demons? Kill your way through... snatch back the Stellar Gorge... "

"Kill …" The four thousand Yaqub's rebel soldiers rushed towards the southeast along the relay road, blotting out the sky and covering the earth.

The rebel soldiers never thought that Xu Zhanbiao's Shu Army would be so cunning, the three paths' goal was not to fight to the death but to attract the enemy's attention.

The troops fighting their way up to the plaid block saw that the enemy's main force did not want to fight. They relied on Spencer's superior performance and immediately retreated after firing a round of bullets. Stopping and running meant that they did not have to fight with the enemy.

Back in the era when afterloading weapons were still not widespread, cavalry combat still relied heavily on archery and machete spears. This was because loading ammunition on the back of a fast moving horse was a technical job, and it was impossible without years of training.

For cavalry rifles to be widely used, it was necessary to wait until the clamping rifles were in place before reloading them. Only then would they be able to quickly reload during high-speed movements.

The weapons in Yaqub's hands were even more backward than the weapons in Sha Russia.

This group of cavalry soldiers were unlucky to meet the famous American guns Spenser. They couldn't catch up to him or hit him, and other than the small casualties from his arrows, they could only passively take a beating.

In the Gobi Desert, these Shu Army were like walking dogs as they toyed with the rebel army!

From the fight between the two sides at noon until 5 PM, in the evening, the harassing Shu Army on the southern side of the road suddenly used her left hand to circle from the pool of bitter water to the side of the battlefield.

More than seven hundred of the four thousand rebel soldiers were killed on this day.

It was only until six o'clock when the two thousand riders reinforcements from the Hami met with the main force that the rebel army could be considered to have the absolute advantage. However, he never expected that these Shu Army soldiers did not have any sense of honor at all.

He turned and fled, directly returning back to the Stellar Gorge's defense line!

Only after the rebel army saw the Stellar Gorge's defensive line did they understand that the situation was no longer good!

More than thirty fortresses had all flown up with the flags of the Qing Jun, many of them actually had the sound of cannons, the flowering bomb's explosion inside the Cavalry could easily exchange for dozens of lives!

"We can't move forward anymore … The Purging Demons had set up a new blooming run! "Dammit, dammit …"

"Pass my order, gather all the defending troops of the Western Prefecture, the Barrier Lake, and the old temple around here!" We must protect Hami City! "

"How could this be …" How could this be … Why did the Purging Demons attack in winter? Aren't they afraid of dying from the cold …? "

Who wouldn't be afraid, Xu Zhanbiao didn't feel sorry for his brother? After a day and night of bloody battles, over a thousand brothers were wounded by the cold. Their hands and feet were all swollen red from the cold, and in a few days, pus and water would flow.

The amount of manpower lost was too much. The winters in the Western Regions were unimaginably cold, yesterday's night assault was only around -10 degrees Celsius, in another half a month, the Hami area's night temperature would reach -20 -30 degrees Celsius, or even lower.

"This is simply not the season for decisive battles! We have come this time to give those brothers of the Western Regions who are unwilling to surrender a chance of survival! "

Hope is in the smoke! After a day's worth of beacon fire, they had already arrived at the Hexi Corridor!

The flames of war had also been ignited in the Stellar Gorge. Next was the Great Spring, Red Willow and White Dun … These beacons that hadn't been lit for the past hundred years had actually been ignited.

The entire Western Regions, including the Hexi Corridor area, were stunned. This was a fire warning system passed down from the mouths of their ancestors. Who had ever seen it? They had only heard of legends and had never seen a lineup.

The smoke from the beacons on the ground formed a line and got closer and closer to the Central Plains!

The fires of Guazhou were ignited, and the capital of Anzu was filled with cheers! The next moment, the smoke from the beacon continued to the west. Until the Jade Gate closes!

The spring wind did not stop at the Yumen Gate. The garrison troops of this thousand-year-old pass saw the smoke in the west at a glance. "Ancestor, ancestor, mother!" If he lived all her life, she would be able to see the smoke and warn him! This is so f * cking spectacular! "

"Let's order too!" Send a message to the marshal! "

The fires of the Jade Gate Pass lit up. The Red Gold Gorge, the Grass Lake, the White Yang River, and the Green Head Mountain Pass … After they passed the mountain pass, they would reach the Jiayuguan!

In the middle of the night, Zuo Zongtang woke up abruptly. Before he could put on his shoes, Liu Jintang rushed in from the outside with a wail.

"Marshal..." The flames of war are starting in the Western Regions! "
