Chapter 70 Walk along the edge of the barracks sentry post
Yang Li slowly unfolded the silk silk soaked in the blood of the deceased, but until the entire silk silk was opened, he still couldn't see a word on it.
"What the hell is going on? Don't you feel at ease over there? Just sent someone to bring a piece of fabric for making clothes? If they don't believe us, why should they ask you to go again. ”
A knife on the side said indignantly.
"What are you anxious about? Haven't you finished reading it yet?" Yang Li was only in his early 20s, but he was calm in front of major events, and he refuted the words with a knife with an understatement.
Although Yidao is a lot older, in front of Yang Li, his status is indeed inferior, so as long as Yang Li speaks, Yidao is impossible to refute. This was the same power that Yang Li's father, that is, the ancestor of the blacksmith.
Yang Li vaguely remembered that the man in white had once risen, and perhaps only he could distinguish the words on it. Therefore, he simply used the Yuan Force of his body, radiated his divine sense, and concentrated it on the silk silk for investigation. It didn't matter if he looked at it, Yang Li immediately found that in the inner layer of the silk silk, there were some fine words that were not verifiable.
Yang Li shook his spirit and added Yuan Li, only then could he barely see the text strokes in the middle of this fine line of text, and saw these words in a single stroke: "Three Formations and Seven Battalions", "General Tang" and "Nine Teams", etc., which made him incomprehensible words.
What did Lan Yi want to tell him, Yang Li searched for half of the juan cloth again, but found no other words. He handed Juan Bu to a knife with some disappointment, and then sighed, it was so difficult to do things for the royal family.
Come on, I was assassinated by someone without saying a word, and I finally got a piece of silk cloth, but there was no handwriting on it, if I didn't find out my strong sense, I'm afraid I can't even see the above few mottled words.
After taking the silk silk with a knife, he hurriedly glanced at it a few times, but he really didn't find any content, and even the divine sense he poked out couldn't see the "Three Formations and Seven Battalions", "General Tang" and "Nine Teams" as clearly as Yang Li. Yang Li saw his confused appearance, so he smiled and slashed over the words he saw.
"Could it be that this is a dumb riddle they played for you?" After hearing this, Yidao frowned thoughtfully, although they forged weapons in the wind, and provided high-quality soldiers for the army and princes and marquis all year round, which also made him very familiar with some officers and soldiers in the army, but this experience did not help to solve the mystery on the silk silk with a knife.
"I don't know if you know if there is a Tang general in the army?" In the silence, Yang Li took the lead in breaking the silence, and he asked faintly, although there are three words General Tang on the silk silk, but it is also possible that His Majesty asked him to find it, the generals in the Tang Dynasty of the Tang Army, of course, this does not rule out the existence of generals surnamed Tang in the Great Wei Kingdom, so he asked!
Yidao tilted his head and thought about it for a long time, but he didn't find a general surnamed Tang in the depths of his memory, so he could only shake his head.
"Then what do you mean by the three formations and seven battalions?" Yang Li was very annoyed that the blood stains on the silk cloth had blurred some of the handwriting, otherwise he would have to guess like this.
"Well, I know that. As soon as he heard these words, the spirit came, and he said:
"The array, in the army, is a 10,000 rao formation team, and the chief officer of a formation can be a partial general, or a demoted general; and so on, the battalion is a 1,000 rao formation team in the army, and the 100 rao square team is called a team. Therefore, the three formations and seven battalions may mean that we should go over there to find it. ”
Yang Li felt that the knife was very reasonable, so he said "go", and took the knife out of the door forged by the wind.
"Where are we going this time?" Yidao didn't dare to ask more just now, but on the way he walked, he couldn't hold back his question.
"Where are you going? but to the army!"
"But it seems to be in the wrong direction, the army is on the outskirts of the West City. ”
"Let's go to the palace first, ask about the matter, and then it's not too late to go. Yang Li was not sure what the "Three Formations and Seven Battalions", "General Tang" and "Nine Teams" meant.
So he really wanted to go back to the palace and ask Lan Yi, because if you do anything in the wrong direction, you will definitely go in the opposite direction, no matter how hard you work on the road, you may only get the opposite result in the end.
Soon they were walking through the streets and alleys to the front of the Imperial City. The city gate hole here is still majestic, and the two huge door panels are brightly painted with big red paint, and the nine hundred and eighty-one nails are huge and incomparable.
Two teams of brightly armored soldiers stood neatly on both sides, each holding a weapon in their hands, the axe, the sword and the halberd were bright and dazzling, and the majestic city gate building added the flavor of Xiao Killing. I remember when I came here a few times ago, there weren't so many soldiers here.
Yang Li glanced at the vigilance situation on this side of the city gate cave from a distance, and felt that the situation had become more solemn, although he didn't know what was the reason for the unforgiveness, Yang Li still added a little more attention in his heart.
He poked out his strong divine sense, his heart was winged, and he broke into the imperial city strongly, and soon he glanced around inside, but he didn't find any emperor's breath, could it be that the man in white he sent, after the incident with the gale forging, this guy transferred the point, and even the imperial city didn't dare to stay?
Yang Li felt that the royal people were cautious, and the former man in white did not succeed in a move, so he sent follow-up people to kill him.
Yang Li also did not find any comparable masters in the imperial city, so he silently withdrew his divine sense detection, depending on the situation, he could not find the necessary answer in the imperial city, so he could only go to the place where the army was stationed in the western suburbs, maybe there was really a chubby general Tang waiting for him?
Yidao had already learned the result in Yang Li's expression, so he didn't ask, but silently followed behind the master. Although his current status is not low, and he is much older than his pupils, he already recognizes Yang Li as the master in Yidao's heart, just like many strategist generals beside the male lord, he is the confidant general next to Yang Li with Yidao.
At Yang Li's suggestion, Yidao also shrouded his face with an aura mask in order to cover his face.
It doesn't take long to get from the palace to the barracks in the western suburbs, because it is about to "protect" the safety of His Majesty Lan Yi, this army stationed in the west is very close to the palace, but there are not a few people who know the Shaodong family along the way, so it is necessary to be cautious.
Of course, Yang Li also shrouded his face with a layer of aura, which made his face blurred.
And he used Yuan Li to hide his own aura. In the Gale Forge, they encountered assassins one after another, although each of them was not enough in Yang Li's eyes, but what they were provoked was the powerful minister of a kingdom, the person who kidnapped His Majesty Lan Yi, and behaved more cautiously and vigilantly, so Yang Li dared to slack off!
Especially with a knife around them, if they act a little wrong", I'm afraid that waiting for them is the fate of being wanted by the whole country of Great Wei, even if Yang Li is not afraid, anyway, one person is "full", and the whole family is not hungry. However, his followers have to bear the wrath of the prince, which is a great sin to destroy the nine clans.
Twisting and turning, they bypassed several pine posts, avoided the sentry posts on the drying road, and quietly came to a dense mountain forest. The more Yang Lihe walked towards the western barracks, the fewer pedestrians he encountered.
The people I met by chance were either here to collect medicine or woodcutters who came to fetch firewood, so they dared to walk along the edge of the barracks sentry.
There is also an uncle told Yang Li that there has been a lot of movement in the military camp in the western suburbs recently, and the scope of the army's restricted area has also expanded a lot, if you don't accidentally touch the military master, the stronger ones will be immediately caught by the coolies or soldiers in the army, and the weaker ones will be beheaded directly.
Yang Li grew up in a village in the mountains and forests, and he knows better than anyone the hard work of mountain people relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, so after the old man finished worrying about the words and the bitter water of the panic, Yang Li took out a big ingot of silver from his arms and asked him to go back to improve his life.
It's not that Yang Li feels sorry for a few dollars, he is afraid that the old man will "be innocent and guilty!" If you give him valuable gold, it will be great! The gold here is still more expensive than the outside world, I don't know why, Yang Li found that gold can still be used as medicine here, and Yang Li exchanged gold for the expensive Huoyun gold coins in the outer layer.
In front of it is the military camp in the western suburbs. Yang Li and the others could feel the solemn aura wafting from there, except for the sound of the shocking shout, the other sounds were almost not as good as under Yang Li's careful investigation, and they could also feel the faint murderous aura emanating from it, although it was not much, but it was straight through the soul!
Here, Yang Li, can they find General Tang?! Yang Li and Yidao circled around the mountain col, but whether it was the divine sense detection of the Divine Concentration Cultivator with a single sword, or Yang Li's own detection, they could not discover General Tang's existence in time. In Yang Li's mind, General Tang must be a commander of the army with a certain degree of cultivation, and he should be a fierce general who has been galloping on the battlefield for many years, but no matter how their divine sense detects it, they can't find the slightest trace of the other party.
Could it be that General Tang deliberately hid his line of hiding?! Just like they are doing now? If it weren't for the fact that the man in white fell too quickly, if he hadn't searched for His Majesty's breath outside the palace, I'm afraid that this question would have been answered, but now, no matter how hard they tried, everything would be in vain!
"How much do you know about the military?" Yang Li had no choice but to sit down on a hillside and asked Yidao lightly.
"It depends on what you want to know?" replied without thinking.
"How many troops are there in the military camp in the western suburbs, and where are the three formations and seven battalions stationed?"
"I have no way of knowing the exact data on military aircraft. But once I listened to the quartermaster, and they had to buy a lot of food and other supplies. ”
"Doesn't the imperial court allocate military supplies according to the number of people?
"Well, I'm also hearsay, maybe it's because the main grain-producing areas have been occupied by Datang, forcing them to buy it on the market, at least to buy some military rations to supplement their daily expenses. ”
Yidao cautiously replied: "I am afraid that their number is at least tens of thousands, that is, there are a number of troops." As for where the specific troops are stationed, I also know. ”
Yes, it is a matter of where the specific troops are stationed in the military areas? Where can a blacksmith know such military information?
Yang Li compared the number of tents that he used his divine sense to detect just now, and it was estimated that it could only be more, not less. However, it is difficult to estimate the number of people in the barracks, and I am afraid that even the soldiers who have just been stationed in the cluster and live in the tents will be less than 20,000 or 30,000. The data is a bit different from that of Yidao, but it is certainly closer to the real data.
But if they were to find a General Tang among the tens of thousands of vacancies, it would be easier said than done to find someone they had never met. It's just looking for a needle in the depths of the ocean, and that's it. Yang Li finally said lightly:
"Either we go and catch a live mouth, we must first know where the three formations and seven battalions are. "That's a good idea, but what if we get close and they find out?"
A knife raised his own doubts. "It's not easy to do, as long as we are here to join the army, I'm afraid the other party won't be able to ask for it!"
Because the Great Wei Dynasty has been at war with the Tang Dynasty for many years, it has lost nearly 500,000 young people in the war, and the war has not ended, and the army is in urgent need of personnel replenishment, so the matter of catching strong men and joining the army has occurred frequently in various places.
The military camp in the western suburbs is no exception, listening to the old man just now, they will also arrest the young man to join the army, as long as he is bumped into him, his face does not change, and it is very likely that he will also become the target of arrest.
As for whether it is a spy sent by a foreign enemy, I am afraid that no one cares, as long as the army can be full, the most important thing is to do so.
Grasping the matter of inquiring about the situation, Yang Li handed it over to a knife, presumably with the cultivation of a cultivator with a knife, it was still easy to do this thing.
After saying goodbye to Yang Li, he turned the hill and came to a secluded place, just in time to find a lone soldier with his back to him, watering fertilizer on a big tree. The discharged urine hits the grass and makes a "poof" sound.
A knife slapped on the soldier's neck, causing the latter to suddenly faint, and this unlucky guy didn't even snort, he was caught under the armpit by a knife, and rushed towards Yang Li's side.
Yang Li could hear a sparse sound in front of him, and through the investigation of his divine sense, he knew that it was a knife that had returned, so he opened his mouth to ask:
"Who the hell did you arrest here? Why does it smell of urine?"
A knife and a flick of leaves revealed his true face, and after hearing the words, he smiled embarrassedly, :
"I caught it in a hurry, and forgot that this guy was still there...... So there's something smell on him. ”
Yang Li waved his hand, and with the wave of his big sleeves, he woke up Huokou with a cool breeze. The unlucky guy who woke up was still frightened, the first thing he saw was Yang Li, and he felt that the other party was a handsome student, and it was impossible to calm down what he did. The unlucky man asked weakly:
"This lord, we have no grievances in the long past, and no enemies in the near future, you may have caught the wrong person. ”
Yang Li ignored him and asked to himself, "Are you from the three formations and seven battalions?"
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the unlucky guy took two steps back in horror, and hit the body of a knife behind him, and he was terrified: "Uncle, how do you know?"
How did Yang Li know which military camp the unlucky guy came from? Just asked casually, he didn't expect to hit the right one, he looked at him with a knife, stood up unwillingly, and continued to ask:
"Do you have General Tang there?!" The unlucky guy was obviously a little flustered, and he said timidly: "I am from the third formation, and I only know that our chief officer is General Li." ”
A knife stood up next to his eyes, and with a fierce expression, the unlucky man took two steps back, and his voice lowered a lot:
"It's really nothing, General Tang, how dare you lie in front of the two masters. ”
Then the unlucky guy was so frightened that he sprinkled all the urine that had just been urinated on his crotch, and the breeze blew, causing him to shiver, and he felt the cold from his crotch upwards.
How can there be a knife to catch the mouth like this, Yang Li is so spiritual, he has long smelled the bursts of urine floating from the cool mildew egg, at this moment, the unlucky egg spilled some more, a fresh smell of urine, covering up the old taste. Yang Li couldn't help laughing.
"I'm afraid he really doesn't know, or if you take me to the place where he was arrested, then you should be where the three formations and seven battalions are. ”
"Okay, what about this guy?" asked Ichito, with a grim face.
"Knock him out as he would, and throw him farther this time! When we come back from our errands, I'm afraid he hasn't found a place yet, right?"
Yang Li did not have the habit of killing innocents indiscriminately, although he knew the meaning of a knife, he still instructed a knife to do so.
After the two of them whispered and transmitted, they stunned the unlucky guy again with a knife, and did as Yang Li ordered.
The two of them then came to the place where they had just caught the outcrop, and sure enough, they saw the barracks in a mountain depression.
Some soldiers in the barracks were practicing, and some were sitting on the ground resting, and the whole army was in good order.
I'm afraid it's almost time for dinner, and more than a wisp of smoke rises here. Yang Li raised his nose and smelled it, there was the smell of rice here, and there was also the aroma of fried wood, and it was estimated that the smell of meat came from the place where General Li opened the stove.
But the huge barracks were crowded, and if they were looking for a Rao Yan named General Tang, how could they be searched for a while and a half?
"Let's go!" Yang Li took the lead with a knife, snorted, and went straight inside, only to sneak around and probe the line. Yidao was taken aback by Yang Li's behavior, but they are in the military camp, can we go in with such a big stab?
However, although Yidao thought so, his actions were consistent with Yang Li, and even a sultry smile appeared on his face, he wanted to follow the strong man, and enter the Wanrao military camp, as if entering a no-man's land, this kind of spirit, this kind of heroism, which one can match?!
"Hidden!" Suddenly, he heard that Shan Tongtong shouted again, and Yang Li, who was walking in his head, suddenly disappeared into the void and disappeared.
How did he know that Yang Li could hide his whereabouts by using the Six Absolute Divine Skills, even if he hid his entire body in the rock layer, it was also a breeze, let alone hiding in the void.
This time it was the turn of a knife to be unlucky, he had already followed Yang Li to the front of the Yuanmen, he was not a tall figure, he had been seen by a few sharp-eyed sentinels, and the soldiers on the Yuanmen Tower had already taken a bow and aimed at a knife.
"Where did you come from? I don't know if this is a military place, and you are not allowed to trespass without an invitation?" asked a man who looked like a junior officer, with a saber at his waist, and walked towards Yidao step by step with an expressionless face.
Of course, Yang Li saw this scene at this time, he was used to walking independently before, and he didn't expect a knife to follow him, but now it's a good thing, and he directly hit someone's door.
"You're here to join the army, I'll come when I go!" Yang Li said in a knife's ear.
"Okay!" A knife readily agreed, "You are very distracted!" "I know!" After all, it is in other people's territory, and it is stared at by tens of thousands of pairs of eyes, even if you are cultivated, it is impossible to wipe them all out at once. Yidao knows this truth, how can Yang Li not know!
Although Yang Li has stealth exercises, he is not afraid of being seen by others, but he is afraid that cultivators with high cultivation will find out his aura, in which case his hidden will be exposed.
However, he is not aimless here, although a high-level cultivator can hide his aura, but the weapon he uses should probably be a high-level soldier, especially in the military camp
Therefore, through the divine sense to detect the breath of the soldiers, it is estimated that General Tang can also be found, so just now, before entering the gate, he has already sensed the information of a peerless soldier through the divine sense.
This peerless soldier is hanging at the back of the barracks, and the murderous aura transmitted from it is far better than other weapons, and it is estimated that it is also a soldier who has been fighting with the general for many years, if he can really follow the map like this, I am afraid that Yang Li will definitely find General Tang in the cluster.
However, the hiding place of this peerless warrior was actually filled with bursts of aroma of rice and the smell of fried wood in the sky above it. Could it be that the peerless soldier is hanging in the kitchen?! The location of the soldiers was in the back camp, and Yang Li almost found it here by smelling the smell of the food, but when he came to the so-called soldier's hideout, he suddenly noticed that the soldier's breath was suddenly gone. But I only saw a cook chopping vegetables, and the sound of ping-pong was very noisy.
Yang Li looked around, grinning silently, because he found that this cook was not simple, although he hid his breath, but the fact that his cultivation had reached the initial level of concentrating could not be completely covered up in front of Yang Li's eyes, after all, there was a big realm difference between the two, and there was still a few realms behind.
