Situated within the southernmost protrusion of the Jingjiu Dynasty, the baohuoguan go is surrounded by the evil sea on the left and the bamboo sea on the fitting. It’s caught in the midst of the Bamboo Street, which is the one means out.
The damaging terrain is the primary impression of my huoguan.
Then there’s dominance.
The narrowest a part of the bamboo path can be referred to as daozikou. It’s lower than a mile from the left to the fitting. The baohuoguan is constructed on this daozikou.
The general go is ten toes excessive and greater than 4 toes thick. It was constructed within the former dynasty and bolstered thrice earlier than and after the outdated Jing Dynasty. Not solely is the entire physique made of big stones right into a joint of triad, however there are thunder tracks and assault grooves within the center, which may manage multi-directional assaults on the enemy within the wall. It’s even stated that there are greater than 100 arrays.
Within the earlier wars towards Nanman, the clumsy barrier was not damaged even in essentially the most important time. That is the boundary between Terrans and barbarians, and it is usually the purple line.
Forty years in the past, the barbarians have been defeated once more. Yang Yansi personally led the military to struggle three battles in Guan LianZhan, killing the primary power of the barbarians and fleeing in all instructions. Then he minimize off the wolf king thunderstorm, the chief of the black stone King’s court docket at hongshangou array outdoors the go, fully destroyed the conceitedness of the barbarians and broke up the black stone King’s court docket.
Though the conflict is much away, and the fireworks have lengthy been washed away by wind, frost, rain and snow, this highly effective fireplace remains to be closed. Even once you enter right here, you may clearly really feel an environment referred to as “Xiao Sha”.
There are few relaxed and wanton expressions. All of them have chilly expressions and sharp eyes. Even the troopers on patrol are risking the evil spirit that bizarre folks won’t ever have. Every eye seems at you want a knife. It is like shaving your pores and skin.
That is the border, and it’s a wartime space utilized by the military as a spot for coaching.
The conflict is much away, however the conflict remains to be burning. It has by no means been extinguished for 40 years.
Within the phrases of the present emperor Yang Jian: the conflict was began by Nanman, however when it ended must be as much as me! I wish to kill all of the Nanman folks for generations!
After all, that is solely the wishful pondering anger of the emperor far-off from the battle. The consequence to Nanman was a inhabitants looting that lasted for 40 years, misplaced many of the precise management of the land, and will solely shrink within the southeast.
Tan bin three persons are the primary time to return to buhuoguan, far-off by Xiongguan’s sense of oppression.
Dealing with the mountains, you’ll sigh, and you’ll tremble within the face of this man-made miracle.
“Is not it nice?” the outdated mouse nonetheless adopted Tan bin and was already aware of him as large brother. He additionally stated that when he arrived on the station later, he would take the three tan bin to see his eldest brother, that’s, a captain of the primary staff of the slave caravan who had been ready right here early. He stated that he might cowl it very properly and made some huge cash.
“Effectively, it is spectacular. Are we going to enter the customs later?” Tan bin was curious and seemed ahead to it.
“What do you suppose? First you need to go to the station to satisfy with the primary groups, after which settle for the verification of the border troops one after the other. You possibly can’t depart the customs till all of the formalities are accomplished, and you may’t keep on the customs, in any other case a feather arrow can nail you to the wall.”
Because the outdated mouse stated, Tan bin adopted the troops down the straight highway and turned to the opposite facet of Xiongguan within the distance. There was a mountain despair with many tents, however there was no stronghold. It appeared that there have been a minimum of 1000 folks stationed.
“That is the residence of the bonus chamber of Commerce. In reality, there are a number of related sized residences not far forward. They’re all slave chambers of Commerce like us. When you’re free, do not wander into different folks’s residence. When you’re not simple to be overwhelmed, it is mild. It is not cost-effective to lose your life.”
“How dare they kill?”
“Tut, what dare you? When you do not inform others, you Liu San hasn’t had blood in your arms? Do not faux. Nobody who can come to the slave chamber of commerce is an efficient man. Let’s go and I will take you to see my eldest brother.”
Quickly after coming into the station, the outdated mouse took Tan bin and went straight to report, after which turned to his eldest brother. It is not possible to not go, as a result of as quickly because the outdated mouse entered the station, it was like altering an individual. His waist was straighter and his voice was louder. Somebody all the time got here to say howdy to him behind him, and several other of them all the time adopted behind, like Tan bin surrounded within the center.
“Don’t be concerned, my eldest brother is simple to speak.”
It is very easy to speak. Quickly Tan bin noticed it. As they’d guessed earlier than, the outdated mouse was not type and compelled Tan bin to signal an IOU on the pretext of paying safety cash. The quantity on it was not small. It was principally half the earnings of the journey.
It is okay if they do not signal. If they do not signal, they are going to be detained within the station as servants. They are going to work for 2 or three years. It is good if they will get thirty or fifty liang of silver at the moment. In the event that they drown within the cesspit, they will get some pensions from the chamber of Commerce. Do you wish to?
Tan bin naturally behaves very “appropriately”. He and the opposite two are above the extent line. They’re crammed with righteous indignation, glare, dare to be offended, and so forth. they act incisively and vividly, not like fraud.
After all, everyone knows that Liu San, Qi Wu and Zhang Si are pseudonyms, so the direct bonus can be signed by the nameplate given to them by the chamber of Commerce. At the moment, so long as they arrive again alive, half of the cash can be immediately intercepted by these folks to their very own pockets.
Out of the large brother’s tent, the outdated mouse smiled and stated, “do not look bitter. The bonus chamber of commerce is like this. Which different chamber of commerce will not be like this? It is a hanging sample to return out to eat this bowl of rice. When you do not domesticate your self and are usually not monks, you may solely stay on the battle array. How are you going to enter the array with out cash? Don’t be concerned, so long as you come again alive, you may keep away from this cash subsequent time.
As well as, I stated to maintain you protected, to not speak nonsense with you, stroll round, present you round, and inform you the principles. “
Tan bin and the three are nonetheless enjoying. They’re offended and helpless. They observe the outdated mouse into their very own tent.
“It is estimated that it is possible for you to to go away the customs tomorrow. Evidently you and I’ll nonetheless be within the Tour staff. Then you definitely observe me. I do know the route, guarantee security, and I can meet a lone sheep with good luck. It is extra cash to deliver one again…”
This man is a little bit of a chatterbox. He cannot be idle when he opens his mouth.
“You might be so acquainted right here. The place have you ever been the farthest?”
“Ha ha, how might I not be aware of you? I have been right here a number of occasions. The farthest? I have been to Baitou gorge. I chased a cat’s ewe for greater than ten days. I lastly caught up. I made a thousand Liang that point!”
Tan bin checked out one another with out leaving a hint. I’ve a sense in my coronary heart. As a result of the “Baitou gorge” talked about by the outdated mouse simply now’s an important key location. As a result of Baitou gorge is the farthest distance that the slave chamber of Commerce has traveled within the file, after which to the southeast is a clean. Tan bin and others appear to wish “Acquaintances” like outdated mouse in the event that they wish to cross baitouxia and proceed to go southeast.
Tan Bin stated with a helpless expression: “then the three of us will go together with you tomorrow.”
“Sure, however we now have so as to add three outdated arms. It is safer.”
“Sure!”
