Chapter 3143 When Ambition Meets Ambition(2/2)
Niu Jin saw this very clearly.
Whoever is righteous and whoever is evil depends on who will win in the end.
Walking on a mountain road requires careful every step, and also full of confidence and courage. There are not many people on the top of the mountain. Niu Jin was born in Jingxiang, so he naturally could only be in Jingxiang. He is not like the gentry and gentry who have the remaining money to study and gild. He can only choose the nearest opportunity to climb to life.
This is a bold plan, but also a very successful plan...
Well, if it goes well.
Niu Jin thought, a little distracted, and stepped on a loose stone with one foot, and suddenly he turned a tilt!
Fortunately, the fellow villager who had been following Niu Jin pulled Niu Jin, which made Niu Jin's center of gravity regained its stability.
The stone that was trampled by Niu Jin happily jumped on the rock walls and rushed into the mountain stream.
Niu Jin bit the zip, calmed down his breath, then signaled behind him and climbed up again.
The mountain road is difficult to walk.
For those who have no family to rely on and no foundation to squander, what road is there to go to success and climb to the top of the mountain?
In fact, since the Han Dynasty, the surrounding passes were not as solid and steep as the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods due to changes in mountains, rivers and geography, as well as the climate warmth and warmth.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Hangu Pass was invincible.
In the Han Dynasty, Hangu became a younger brother...
Then in the Tang Dynasty, even the capital of China, Chang'an, was taken over and over again.
And what is very interesting is that in the Tang Dynasty, it not only reinforced Tongguan, but also strengthened Wuguan, expanded the defense scope of Wuguan, added several additional new passes, and formed a pass defense system similar to Tang Tongguan, with the original old Wuguan, and there was only one pass city.
Even so, Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty was still posed in various postures by different rebels.
Those who are obsessed with and arrogant, and think that a pass can resist foreign enemies for thousands of years are all jokes.
The Great Wall cannot prevent nomadic people from raiding around the pass. How could there be no loopholes in the eight passes like Guanzhong, which are separated from various places?
After all, time has changed and the world has changed.
To rely on the barriers and seek eternal peace, it can only be a delusion.
This is true for Hangu, the Great Wall, and the same is true for Wuguan.
Only the strength of oneself is the most powerful. No matter how strong the turtle shell is, the inside is soft.
Although Jingzhou did not have any major conflicts with Wuguan after the Battle of Jingzhou, it does not mean that Cao Ren did not do anything or made some preparations...
Especially when Wuguan was in Qin and Chu, it was already constantly fighting for it. The surrounding mountains were repeatedly fighting for it. The roads along the Danshui were transparent for both sides. The difference was some paths that only they knew, or they thought they only knew.
Niu Jin followed the path specially pointed out by Cao Ren, climbed upwards, bypassed Wuguan, and headed straight to Shang County.
The reason why these are trails that are usually unwatched is because there is a distance and it is very dangerous, just like the road Niu Jin is now on, which is called the back of the fish.
Walking this journey is like really walking on the back of a big fish. Not only are there gravel and broken rocks, but it is like a thorn on the fish's back. It may make the skin and flesh bloom at any time. The width of the walk is very narrow. There are deep ravines on both sides and one foot is slippery. Even if you are lucky enough to catch something or get stuck on the slope, you will inevitably be rubbed with blood. If you fail to get stuck, you will delete the file directly...
There are many such roads in the Qinling Mountains.
Just like there are many mountain roads from Hanzhong to Guanzhong, which are easy to walk and difficult to walk. Even monkeys shook their heads when they saw it...
If the Yinping road is called "Xie Xing", then the road Niu Jin is now on can only be called "Gambling Xing".
Bet on your life that you can die in the nine deaths, bet on your way to climb up and make a fortune, your life is your own way of gaining is your future!
Niu Jin claimed to be brave and mighty, otherwise he would not be willing to take on such a task. However, when he arrived on such a mountain road, he was secretly shocked. Fortunately, there were marks left by Cao's scouts along the road along these roads, and he also left some ropes to help in the dangerous places. Only then did he crawl and pass through the most dangerous road with all limbs.
Looking back, the mountain road was like a blade, and they were just walking past the blade...
"This... this is really going to the sword mountain..."
Niu Jin murmured.
The people of the Cao family are unwilling to do such a thing that is almost lifeless. Even if Cao Zhen argues in a fake way, Niu Jin knows that even if he really doesn't stand up, this matter will not be really given to Cao Zhen. At that time, there will definitely be some legitimate and irrefutable reasons. There are some tasks that must be Cao Zhen for Cao Zhen to do, and even if he is reluctant, he must come and take a trip.
So, why both sides are not good-looking?
Niu Jin volunteered to Ying, Cao Zhen asked for his order, and the tent was full of praise, and Cao Ren's face was shining.
Yes, this is a life-threatening battle.
But these days, it is not a big family, so what qualifications do you have to ask for this or that?
Niu Jin represents a military academy with a different surname, and Cao Zhen represents the Cao family's children. The two sides have an equal opportunity, and Cao Ren is all fighting for the first place, and everyone is over 10,000 per month... Cough cough, anyway, that's the right thing...
In the game, this average and that average, no one knows who averages who represents who.
Niu Jin couldn't help licking his lips, climbed onto Shiya, and looked at the movements around him from afar.
After a while, everything was calm.
It was not until everyone passed through the back of the fish that Niu Jin breathed a sigh of relief.
Oh, not everyone, on the way they came, they had lost thirty or forty people. If everyone hadn't been biting their necks, the screams of falling would have resounded throughout the valley, attracting the alertness of the cavalry defenders...
Now Niu Jin is waiting for the final signal from Shang County to appear.
