After the army rested for three days, they began to prepare to enter the mountain one after another. Mu Wu and the Wang brothers were at the forefront. The three of them were hunters who had walked this road and were already familiar with how to enter the mountain. However, the army might not be able to walk the road they knew, or the road they could walk.

Because these roads are usually small paths and can only be passed by one by one, if the army comes one by one like them, then don’t think about passing this road for a year or two.

Therefore, Li Xin ordered Ye Mao to lead a thousand invaders, holding a long sword in his hand, and when he encountered thorns and obstacles along the way, he would split it directly with a long sword, thus opening up a path for hundreds of people to pass through, and then the army slowly passed through.

Because Li Xin's troops have enough troops, more than a thousand people who have opened the road in front can come in rotation, so the progress in the first few days is quite fast, and you can basically walk more than ten miles a day. However, the southwest from Yinping, the harder the road is to walk. Sometimes you will encounter rivers and have to stop building bridges and pave roads, or even dig a road out.

Fortunately, Li Xin's troops were not like the kind of mob. These people were elite imperial guards who received daily training and could also be prohibited. They encountered mountains and built bridges along the way, and when they encountered places that could not be passed, they would open up a road.

That's what Deng Ai did back then.

If it were ordinary soldiers, such high-intensity marching would have been full of complaints in the army, but because Li Xin was the elite imperial guards, Li Xin himself was the general of the imperial guards and was a genuine and authentic leader. Although these imperial guards worked hard, they could only work hard with Li Xin.

Until they arrived at Motianling.

This is a hillside.

The northwest of this mountain is relatively slow and can be climbed slowly. He was led by Mu Wu and the Wang brothers, Li Xin and several imperial guards, Zhechong Commander, etc., all of them successfully climbed to the Motianling.

But when Li Xin and others saw the southwest of the hillside, he fell into silence.

Too steep.

At this time, Li Xin finally understood why the elite troops of Deng Ai's troops were stagnant here and even asked Deng Ai himself to go down first before they dared to follow.

Even if the mountain people walk here, they must be careful. Many people will inevitably die when the army passes here on a large scale.

Zhao Jia, the dog-headed military advisor standing next to Li Xin, looked a little pale at this moment.

After a month of march, neither Li Xin nor Zhao Jia had the same clean appearance as before. Because they had to walk in the mountains, they had fewer chances to take a bath, and they were even less likely to have the opportunity to trim their beards. At this time, everyone was unshaven and very sloppy.

Zhao Youan turned his head to look at Li Xin and swallowed.

"Marty, can you go down here...?"

Before Li Xin could speak, Mu Wu, who was standing beside him, said with a smile: "Of course, it can go on."

He greeted Wang Hu next to him and said, "Brother Hu, you go down and see the Marquis and the others first."

The Wang Hu nodded neatly, then tightened a strip of cloth on his arm, used his hands and feet together, and like a gibbon, he quickly climbed down from the southwest from the top of the Motianling Mountains.

Li Xin looked at Wang Hu's back and felt a little panicked.

To be honest, he is a little afraid of heights now.

However, at this time, Li Xin himself must not panic. He is the main general of this army and the backbone. In any case, at least he must be calm and composed.

Mr. Li took a few deep breaths and said in a deep voice to Mu Wu on the side: "Brothers of Mu, you lead the way ahead, let's go down together."

Mu Wu hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Marquis, why don't you let your brothers pull the rope for you?"

"Need not."

Li Xin swallowed and said, "Just go on like that."

At this time, it is naturally safe to tie a rope, but it is impossible for everyone to have this "safety rope". Since Li Xin wants to take the lead, he cannot "specialize it".

Li Xin looked back at Zhao Jia and ordered: "Brother You'an, after I succeed, you will command on this hillside, and let the brothers behind throw the rope down first, and then climb down one by one along the rope."

Zhao Jia was also a little scared, and he whispered: "Marty, if you continue like this, there are so many of us..."

Li Xin spoke in a deep voice: "Even if you stay here for ten or eight days, you must ensure that you try to die as little as possible."

In fact, the most difficult thing to get through with this kind of terrain is not people, and there are even more difficult things like food, supplies, etc., but as long as people go down, they can be transported slowly with patience.

Zhao Jia nodded slowly, and then said to Li Xin: "Marty, if you haven't gone..."

"Then I'll tell my brothers that I've gone down."

Mr. Li gritted his teeth.

"We have already walked here. If we can't walk through the Yinping Ancient Road, no one can go back to the capital. When we get here, there will be no way back!"

As he said that, Li Xin tied his sleeves and trousers tightly and said to Mu Wu: "Brothers of Mu, let's go."

Mu Wu took a deep breath and nodded, "Mr. Marquis, follow me."

The two of them followed the road that Wang Hu had explored before and touched the foot of the mountain bit by bit. Mu Wu was a hunter. He was not as good as walking on the flat ground on the mountain, but at least it was very relaxed. But Li Xin was different. He had never climbed such a steep mountain with his bare hands in his two lives. He could only slowly follow Mu Wu and groped downward little by little. : :

Mu Wu would stop from time to time, turn back and wait for Li Xin, and then reach out to support Li Xin.

Although the two of them were not fast, they were indeed groping down little by little. Li Xin tried not to look down the slope, but just looked at his feet little by little to relieve the fear in his heart.

I have to thank you here for the boxing stakes that Wang Zhong gave to Li Xin in the past two years. If it were Li Xin from Chengde for 17 years, he would have probably fallen down at this time, but after more than two years of boxing stakes, Li Xin has made great progress in both physical strength and physical coordination ability. In addition, with Mu Wu leading the way, although they were not happy, they were quite steady.

When he was halfway up the mountain, Li Xin sighed secretly.

According to records, when Deng Ai walked this road, the army was in trouble several times because of the lack of food and grass supply. Even so, they still crossed the Motianling and reached Jiangyou Pass. It can be seen how far Deng Ai's army was at that time.

As for Li Xin, because Emperor Chengde left a wealthy family for the Xin Dynasty, no matter whether it was Ye Ming's subordinate or Li Xin's subordinate, he had never lacked even a meal of food.

Thinking of this in his mind, Li Xin climbed down from the Motian Ridge step by step. It took about an hour before Li Xin successfully reached the foot of the mountain.

Mr. Li squatted on the ground, gasping for breath.

For a person who is a little afraid of heights, the journey just now is tantamount to a huge test.

After a while, Li Xin slowly stood up, reached out and waved to the top of the mountain, indicating that the people on the mountain could slowly get down.

He waved his left hand, and his right hand was hidden behind him.

At this time, when Marquis Jing'an's right hand came down, he encountered a sharp stone piece, and a hole was cut, and blood was flowing.

But at this time, nothing can be expressed.

Zhao Jia on the top of the mountain saw Li Xin waving his arms, turned around and spoke to several Zhe Chong Commanders.
