From eunuch to emperor

Twenty miles away from Yanmen Pass, there is a man standing on the beacon tower here, holding a long pipe in his hand and slowly smoking.

This person is Gan Xin.

After lighting the beacon last time, Long Chen gave up the outer beacon towers, and only set up observation posts twenty miles away from the pass.

Miaoyin, Gan Xin and Mo Lin are stationed at the left, right and front.

Smoking dry tobacco, Gan Xin looked at the snow in the north, full of thoughts.

He was originally a beggar who lived on the streets of Daliang, but was later picked up by a rich family and brought back to work at home.

The master treats Gan Xin very poorly, with endless work, endless beatings, and never enough to eat, but there is finally a place to stay.

When he was in his teens, the master's son raped and killed a commoner's daughter, and Gan Xin was dragged to take the blame.

The government sentenced him to be beheaded, but Gan Xin was not reconciled, so he escaped from the death row and fled to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

Later, he got acquainted with Shen Wanjin and became a member of Wanjinlou.

He was gifted and intelligent, practiced martial arts, and became a thousand gold envoy, in charge of Xixia's assassination business.

Later, he met Long Chen, and his fate changed again.

call...

Gan Xin let out a puff of smoke, feeling that this life was living in a dream, very unreal.

Human life is always unpredictable, no one knows what will happen tomorrow.

"I killed people for half my life, but I didn't expect to protect the human race in the end."

Gan Xin put away the tobacco stick and couldn't help sighing.

In the end, the assassin will have to fight against the ghost clan to protect the people of the Central Plains. It sounds ridiculous, but it actually happened.

The wind was blowing from the north, the snow had stopped, and the sky was still covered with thick dark clouds.

Although Gan Xin doesn't like the sun, at this time he still hopes that the dark clouds will dissipate and the sun will come out.

Because ghosts don't like the sun even more.

A strange smell blew along the wind. Gan Xin immediately took out the binoculars, jumped up from the beacon tower, and hung in mid-air.

In the camera, the ghost clan is walking slowly.

"coming!"

When Gan Xin landed, he immediately got into the beacon tower, took out a gourd from his waist, and sprayed a mouthful of kerosene on the pile of firewood. The fire was lit on the firewood, and black smoke rose from the beacon tower.

Gan Xin glanced back to the north, turned around and ran towards Yanmen Pass.

His duty is to find the ghost clan, the matter has been completed, there is no use for him to stay here.

Not long after Gan Xin lit the beacon, the soldiers on the beacon tower ten miles behind saw it and immediately lit the beacon.

Miao Yin on the left and Mo Lin on the right also saw it, and immediately lit the wolf smoke, and then retreated.

Yanmen Pass.

Standing on the tower, Wu Chuchu saw the smoke rising, and immediately picked up the drumsticks to beat the war drum.

The rumble of drums resounded through Yanmen Pass, and all the soldiers immediately took up their weapons and prepared to fight.

Long Chen walked out of the room, went to the gate, and the Empress also came out.

"coming."

The Empress said lightly.

After waiting for more than three days for the ghost fetus, it finally came.

Long Chen nodded slightly, the soldiers of the Beacon Tower came back with a sled, dropped the rope, and hoisted him up.

After a while, the three of Miaoyin also came back.

They fly directly over the pass without the need for a lanyard.

"All here?"

Long Chen asked.

Gan Xin said, "Yes, they are all here, I saw them."

Long Chen flew up to the tower and shouted at the entire gate with a lion's roar: "Brothers, the ghost clan is here! This is the first battle! Remember, everything is going according to plan!"

Wu Jian raised the wooden sword in his hand and shouted loudly: "Kill!"

The 20 Long family troops shouted, and the shouts penetrated far.

Tuzhi led his [-] soldiers to fight with the Long family army.

Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai stood behind the wall, looking to the north nervously.

The ghost clan came, and Li Chengdao also came, and they could finally see Emperor Liang.

The cold wind blew, the door gradually became quiet, and everyone looked to the north nervously.

Long Chen stood at the highest point of the tower, staring at the north.

Finally, Guitai, Gao Qinhu, and Li Chengdao appeared in sight, behind them were five thousand ghost warriors, and behind them were barbarian puppets.

The three of them walked forward slowly, and the ghost warrior followed on horseback.

The soldiers who closed the gate finally saw the army of ghosts.

"Only so few people?"

Seeing only a few thousand ghost warriors, Han Ziping couldn't help but say.

Wu Jian frowned, shook his head and said, "You see clearly!"

Han Ziping observed carefully and found that although the number of ghost warriors was small, they felt very strong.

"them?"

Wu Jian nodded slightly and said: "The young general said that most of these ghost warriors have the cultivation of Emperor Wu, at least kings!"

Han Ziping and Gan Zhen beside him were frightened.

How terrifying is an army composed of powerful warriors!

The empress looked solemn, her attention fell on Gao Qinhu, after watching for a while, she turned to the ghost warriors behind.

About this army, Long Chen has already said that the empress knows that these ghost warriors have a high level of cultivation.

When seeing it with her own eyes, the Empress felt even more shocked.

Back then, Emperor Wu's cultivation base was the existence of worshiping generals and marquises in the Central Plains, and the emperor himself was known as the number one in the world.

But today, Emperor Wu's cultivation is actually just a warrior.

If Wu Sheng and Gui Nu recover, they must have stronger fighters, how will they fight this battle then?

Tuzhi saw the legendary holy son of the ghost tribe, and also saw the veteran 400 years ago. The ghost warrior made him feel very uncomfortable.

What made him even more indignant was the barbarian puppets behind him.

These people looked like walking dead, marching for a long time, barbarian puppets with snow-covered hair, dead gray bodies, pale eyes, standing behind them blankly.

"Our people..."

Basi looked at the barbarian puppet and didn't know what to say for a while.

The barbarian generals next to him were also shocked. They finally saw their clansmen, who were really turned into puppets by the ghost clan.

"Tell them to move south, but they just refuse."

"Ugwu, these idiots, how many people have they killed?"

"My brother went back too, and he's probably dead too."

At this time, the generals completely believed what Long Chen said, believed in the existence of the ghost clan, felt sad for the death of the clan members, regretted and doubted Long Chen.

However, these are of no help, the person is dead, and it is useless to say anything.

On the tower, Long Chen jumped, flew out of the pass, landed on the snow, quietly watching the three of them approaching.

Seeing Long Chen, Gao Qinhu was furious, stepped on the snow, strode towards Long Chen, and cursed angrily: "How dare the little thief plot against you!"

Seeing Gao Qinhu rushing towards him, the Empress nervously clenched her phoenix wings, while Dugu Jiali picked up her bow and arrow and aimed at Gao Qinhu.

Yue Sisi and Hu Qiaotong picked up a long musket and squinted their eyes at Gao Qinhu.

This is a musket specially made by Long Chen for the two of them. It is very accurate and used for sniping.

After the musket forging technology matured, Long Chen specially trained a hundred snipers. They didn't fight in front of the formation, but specialized in sniping behind the formation.

When Yue Sisi and Hu Qiaotong took aim, the snipers ambushing in Guanshang had already aimed at Guitai and Li Chengdao.

Long Chen was wearing a thick cloak, and Gao Qinhu rushed towards him with great strides. When he was more than ten meters away, Long Chen suddenly roared at Gao Qinhu.

The lion's roar blasted the snow on the ground, blocking his sight.

Gao Qinhu said angrily: "Handle the ax!"

The lion's roar is the unique skill of Xixia Taizu Shi Potian, but compared with the tiger's roar, it is really inferior.

Gao Qinhu marched forward despite the lion's roar, without any fear.

Guitu fought Long Chen many times, he felt something was wrong, and shouted: "General Gao is back!"
