Novoland: Eagle Flag Chapter 4: Bronze Blood Six
On the rainy grassland, a group of light cavalry marched forward with difficulty.
It has been raining continuously for so long, and everywhere you look, there is nothing but grayness, and you can't distinguish things, and you can't even tell the difference between morning and evening. The iron dace armor covered with sackcloth was washed to remove the oil, revealing a strong smell of rust. When the saber at the waist was tilted, a splash of sour rainwater with rust was poured out. Although the rain finally lightened today, the land was still muddy, and the horseshoes slipped on it. Having lost the excess luggage, the men and horses are still exhausted.
The leading samurai didn't wear a coir raincoat, but held his black cloak to cover his head. The rain fell from his thick and powerful eyebrows, seeping into the creases on his face.
The young lieutenant rode close to him: "General, let's camp and rest before we go! After walking in the rain for so many days, the brothers are exhausted. If we don't camp and rest, we may die in two days. I can't stand it anymore."
The general didn't answer, but took out a crimson kit from the side pocket of the saddle, and shook it out, it was a flag. He handed the flag to the lieutenant general: "Leiyun Menghu, hang it up, we have arrived."
"Already here?" Lei Yunmenghu stared.
Setting foot on the land of Beilu, they have been traveling like this for a full month. This astonishingly heavy rain was really not a good time to go on the road. Except for the occasional small group of shepherds along the way, they didn't even see a village. Even if it doesn't rain, you can only see the sky covered with iron clouds and the muddy grass. Trek here, and even doubt whether the legendary barbarian king city really exists.
Lei Yun Meng Hu didn't understand why the general had such confidence in the face of this confused rain.
Before he tied the flag to the pole of his spear, cheers erupted from the soldiers behind him. He looked back, and there was an almost transparent piece of iron-gray cloud over there, which was so bright that it made people happy. Soon, bright sunlight penetrated through the gap in the cloud, and the gap expanded rapidly. It seemed that a gust of wind was driving away the dark clouds in the sky. The cavalry looked at the unpredictable sky in amazement. The rain stopped at some point, and a clear blue color washed by water appeared in a corner of the sky.
"Rainbow! Rainbow!" shouted a trooper.
When Leiyun Menghu looked over, it was really a semi-arc-shaped rainbow, straight from the blue corner to the distant horizon. Such a pure color, like a dream hanging in the air, the rainbow in East Lu has never been so amazingly beautiful.
"Isn't it beautiful to see a rainbow here?" At some point, the general had already rode his horse to his side.
"Yes! I have never seen such a long rainbow before."
"Northern Lu is like this," the general smiled, "everything is simple and simple. A piece of green grass, the eyes are green, when the sky is sunny, the head is blue, a rainbow, it belongs to it for half a day Color. It’s not like East 6 where the buildings are connected, and everywhere you look, it’s full of people.”
"There are mountains! There are mountains!" Another cavalry shouted over there.
I couldn't believe my eyes. When the sun shrouded the still muddy grassland, a mountain shrouded in clouds and mist appeared behind them as if rising from the sky. The sun shone golden on the top of the mountain, and the clouds were wandering near the top of the mountain. They had trekked through the rain for so long, but they had never thought that they would pass by the side of this majestic and majestic mountain. At this moment, they suddenly saw it, which was as amazing as a miracle.
"It's Tongyun Mountain," the general said, "the sacred mountain in our barbarian hearts, the grassland under the sacred mountain is Shuofangyuan, and we have arrived."
He paused, and sang a song loudly. His voice can never be said to be clear and pleasant, and even has a tearing feeling, but his voice seems to reach the sky, piercing the clouds and cracking rocks, echoing between the sky and the earth.
Leiyun Menghu silently raised the flag embroidered with golden chrysanthemums, and the flag fluttered in the wind, and everyone fell silent for a while. The singing brings everyone's mind to the distant ancient times of this land.
Until the general finished singing, the lingering sound continued for a long time. The soldiers all rushed forward.
"General Tuoba, is it a barbarian song?" a centurion asked with emotion.
"Yes. If the song of Yinyangzhai is translated into Donglu characters, it means..." Tuoba Shanyue pondered for a moment.
"Thousands of miles of Tongyun Mountain, and across the sun and the moon.
The celestial maiden pours out the silver vase, which flows out of the Xuesong River.
The sacred mountain is used as a pillar of heaven, and the snowy river drinks a divine horse.
Where the horse's hooves are flying, green grass grows every inch.
The mountain **** roars among the clouds, and the sound of tigers and leopards is often heard.
Men are born with iron muscles and bones, and ride my horse to the distance.
The Tianhe River is like milk, and it has nurtured thousands of people.
Daughter was born with vermilion lips, shepherds my silver sheep, and guards her hometown. "
"This... is this the song of the barbarians?" A cavalryman showed a flattering smile, "The songs of the barbarians are really vast and unrestrained. It's the first time for the little people to hear it, and they feel that Donglu's poetry is really far behind. !”
Leiyun Menghu showed a mocking smile. As a barbarian, General Tuoba Shanyue was initially looked down upon by the gentry in the lower Tang Dynasty, and even the soldiers refused to accept him. Now that he is in a high position, even the poems of the barbarians are praised to the sky.
Tuoba Shanyue just smiled lightly, looking at Tongyun Mountain with ecstasy: "Actually, you guys won't understand this song after all."
"Come! Come!" The guard cavalry galloped over, waving their arms and shouting.
Tuoba Shanyue turned around suddenly: "Here you come? Line up!"
At the end of the world, nearly a thousand white banners suddenly appeared in hula la, rolling and surging on the grassland as if the clouds descended from the sky.
