Chapter 298: A Plan for Response

In terms of time and route, several of us were able to dispel the suspicion that it was the spy who escaped from the camp last night. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

I think the mountain people should know this very well in their hearts.

Because he will be more familiar with the Northland Mountains than we are, including the route.

Their hunting is certainly not confined to the area around the village, but extends further afield.

For the mountain people here in the Northland, hunting in the mountains is a very important thing on weekdays.

It is also an essential task in their daily lives to make ends meet.

Unlike the area near the river that we pass along the way, people in the mountain villages have more ways to survive.

The carriage continued to move, and after a while, I turned my head to look at Chen Xiang.

I saw that he had been staring at the lying guy, frowning from time to time, and then he said, "It's okay for the time being." ā€

After a pause, I continued: "That man came back from the town just now, and he must have witnessed the scene at the entrance of the town. ā€

"His message sounded definite."

When the mountain man in the front seat heard the conversation in the carriage, he couldn't help but turn his head and said: "He is from the same village as me, he never tells lies, what he says is definitely true, and he will not lie to me." ā€

"Well," I paused for a moment, looked at Chen Xiang and continued, "I think according to what he said, the town entrance will definitely block the flow of people!" ā€

"Xiaolin, what do you want to say?"

Chen Xiang looked at me for a moment and asked.

"Brother Chen," my eyes fell on his face, and I couldn't help but remind him when I saw his expression clearly, "I was thinking that if we were going to enter the town, we would have to be at the back of the line."

So many people are waiting at the entrance of the town, in and out, it looks like it will be very busy.

I imagined the scene of the town entrance in my mind, and naturally I had a plan in mind.

It's better to plan ahead than to wait anxiously in the crowd when you get there!

"Brother Chen, when the time comes, you two will have to go over at least one and go to say hello to the soldiers stationed at the entrance of the town, so that we can go in early."

"To tell you the truth, it doesn't matter if we get to town sooner or later, not an hour or two," I continued, after a pause, "but he's in this guy's case, and it's best not to delay any longer." ā€

As I spoke, my eyes swept over the guy lying flat in the carriage.

It's really not good for him to delay longer.

He was calculated by the camp's splicing men.

Although it is not a deadly poison, the longer it remains in the body, the more it will leave damage.

Even if you can't see it for a while, there will be some sequelae.

It depends on the individual's physique, but it must be taken seriously, so I agreed to General Han

Whether it is out of his status as a healer, or out of a temporary companion, he doesn't want to suffer more.

After hearing this, Chen Xiang nodded at me in understanding.

"Xiaolin, no problem."

Chen Xiang winked at me, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and after a while he whispered, "When we get to the entrance of the town, I'll talk to the guards guarding there." ā€

"Xiaolin, you also know that I know a lot of people in the army."

Chen Xiang glanced at me and pointed in the direction of the front seat.

"He must not know as many people as me," Chen Xiang said after gesturing a few times in a voice that I could only hear, "That guy's origin is not very clear, I didn't know if it was a secret guard, but it looks a bit similar." ā€

Yes, the guy sitting next to the mountain people in the front row simply doesn't have a sense of presence!

His previous whereabouts were not even clear to people like Chen Xiang, who had been in the army for several years, and it sounded very mysterious.

I don't think it's possible that the guards guarding the entrance of the town know anyone whose whereabouts are mysterious.

However, Chen Xiang, as he himself said, used to follow General Gu, come and go to various camps, and walked through many places.

I speculate that there must be a lot of people in the army who know him, and it is only fitting for him to tell the guards!

I thought about it carefully in my heart, and I had the heart to remind him of some things, and then I said that Chen Xiang went to see all the friends he knew!

Speaking of the Sealand King, he is much more familiar than me.

I can't talk about reminding him, but I'm myself, and my future is uncertain.

The tone of his voice sounded very sure, which meant that in his cognition, it was definitely not difficult to enter the town and pass the checkpoint at the entrance of the town quickly.

"I have to ask you for this matter, Brother Chen."

"What words!" Chen Xiang was slightly stunned and said, "It's what I should have done, otherwise why would General Han need me to rush to escort it!" ā€

I remembered the previous argument between the two of us, and I couldn't help but glance out the window.

The silent guy in the front seat has indeed better driving skills than Chen Xiang, and the person sitting in the car has the best experience.

Even on the rugged mountain roads, he drove quite steadily, and with mountain people on the side, it seemed that it would not be difficult to get around the dangerous sections of the area.

The sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded at the mouth of the alley, and the guards of Yuwen's family, who had gone out early in the morning, went back and returned to the town's house.

A companion who stayed behind in the house saw his companion dismount and enter through the door leading to the alley in the cold wind, and his face suddenly showed a stunned look.

As early as dawn, their group of people had been assigned tasks by their own young master.

As planned, the little master went out into the mountains on his own.

The rest of the people in the house, except for the two who stayed here, went to various camps near the town of Northland.

They dispersed and moved out of the town one by one.

Their mission was clear: to find the boy in the camp or gather information about his whereabouts.

This matter, the young master thought about it, and said that he would find the person after he came back from the mountain.

How could the guards return to the mansion at this time?

His companion was suspicious and couldn't help but stare at him firmly.

"Why are you back?" He said strangely to the guard.

The two of them went to act in a group, and there was only one person who came back, which was also a confusing thing.

"Naturally, there is a new situation!"

The guards met his gaze with a helpless look.

After thinking about it, the guard looked at his companion and said, "There was an accident in the camp last night, about Wang Shi's side, we all heard the news this morning, and you were also there." ā€

"The inventory at the entrance of the town has been tried to find a way, and it has gone well, but"

The courtyard of Yuwen's house is planted with a lot of flowers and trees suitable for the climate of the Northland, and many of them are still evergreen all year round.

Although it is not as pleasant as the Yuwen family's house in Suzhou, it is also very eye-catching to look at in the bitter cold place of the north.

The two walked from the door to the inner courtyard to the north, talking along the way.

The smell of plants and trees wafts from the cold wind.

His companion stared at him and asked, "Is there another of our brothers who went to camp with you?" Didn't you both leave together in the morning? ā€

The escort TV line turned to his companion, turned his head sideways and said with a depressed expression: "The place we are going to was originally in the mountain camp in the south of the town, but we received news on the way. ā€

"What's the news?"

"It's something you and I can't even think of, the camp over there has been evacuated!"

The companion was taken aback, immediately stopped, looked at him and asked, "Evacuate?" Are you saying the camps over there are empty? ā€

"Are your sources reliable?"

A look of confusion flashed in his companion's eyes and he asked.

"Of course it's reliable, we also went to the nearby mountains to inspect and see the evacuees from a distance."

"The news is absolutely correct, the personnel have been transferred to the front-line battlefield," the guard emphasized, "It may be that the empress thinks that the front-line manpower of the Northland is more sufficient." ā€

"By the way, I ordered the camp to strengthen the guards to prevent another sneak attack."

This reason is plausible.

After a brief silence for a few seconds, the guard said again: "Those people who were raised in the mountains for training could actually go to the battlefield a long time ago. ā€

"The reason why it has been delayed until now is only because the war in the Northland has been repeatedly put on hold!"

After pondering, the companion continued: "I understand what you mean, but the news is sudden, and our young master may not know." ā€

"They're going east."

The companion roughly estimated the other party's itinerary, looked at the guard, and said, "At this hour, the young master has also arrived in the mountains." ā€

The guard hurriedly said: "So come back and discuss with you, the brothers who went with me will follow the transferred personnel in the camp for a ride now, and adapt to the situation when the time comes." ā€

"I went back to the town first, and if I want to deliver the news, it's also convenient here!"

The guards had already thought carefully about it when they came back along the way, and the tone of their speech sounded very smooth at this time.

"When we get to the front line, our people may not be able to insert it, so we can only find a chance to take a look."

"If the young master is looking for the son, he really followed Master Wang to the front line, we don't want the young master to look for it directly."

"You must not blend in with the army, it is too dangerous."

His companion looked at him with twinkle in his eyes, hesitated and asked, "What are you going to do?" ā€

The companion was not sure what he was thinking for a moment, and looked at him and waited for a reply.

"I plan to take advantage of the time when the young master is going to the mountains, and hurry back to send a message to the Fu Steward in Suzhou, we can't afford this responsibility."

The guard's face stiffened and said, "If something really happens to the young master, I'm afraid we won't even be able to save our lives." ā€

"You have a point, without further ado, hurry up."

On the long street in Northland, the carriage stopped under a big tree on the corner.

One of the two people who got out of the car walked up to the driver and lowered his voice and said a few words carefully.

The coachman looked at him and listened intently.

Companions waited patiently.

When they had finished speaking, they walked towards a shop on the street.

The companion stood still outside the store, glanced at the signboard, frowned and muttered, "I didn't expect that the place you wanted to come to was actually here?" ā€

The companion looked at the person on the side, and said with a little surprise in his eyes: "I really didn't expect it!" ā€

"Hey! I haven't had a chance to be here in years! ā€

The man gritted his teeth vigorously and whispered to his companion: "This time I have to come to see the empress at least once!" ā€

"It's also my wish."

The place where the two of them are now is a time-honored restaurant in Northland Town.

In the middle of winter, when you walk into a shop on the street, you will have an illusion when you see customers sitting around the table!

It seems that there is no war in the Northland at all!

The two of them had come as messengers to deliver the news.

The clothes they were wearing at this time were actually not much different from the other customers sitting in the store.

If I had to find a difference, it would be that most of the customers who eat at the restaurant are ordinary people.

Their eyes will look different from those who have been in the army.

After looking at the guests in the lobby on the ground floor, they finally decided to go up to the second floor facing the street.

The entire row of shops along the street is two-storey.

Walking up the stairs, there are fewer customers above than downstairs.

One of them whispered to his companion, "After all, it still affected!"

His companion met his gaze and heard him say, "I remember that there were always a lot of guests here, and the last time I came, I had to stand at the door and wait." ā€

"Really? Can business be like that? ā€

The companion was a little stunned and asked in disbelief.

"Of course, what I saw with my own eyes can still be fake, and the war in the Northland will definitely affect the business."

It was freezing outside, but there was a fire in the store, and it was very warm.

When I got upstairs, I felt the same way, and when I looked closely, there were braziers in the nearby corners.

The two of them swept their eyes over the tables on the second floor, watching them talk in whispers or concentrate on the dishes, and few people had time to pay attention to the new guests who had just arrived.

The two glanced at each other, this situation was more ideal, and when they arrived at the empress's territory, they were afraid that they would attract the attention of people who shouldn't notice.

After taking his seat, he came out of another room

He stood still, his eyes quickly glanced at the two new guests sitting by the window, and then walked over to greet him with a habitual smile.

The ordering was done by the guest who had been there.

Rantang warmly recommended a few dishes, but unfortunately two of them were rejected because they took a long time.

Ran Tang said in his heart, these two guests should have to leave after eating in a hurry.

Sure enough, the customer who ordered the food also made a special request to ask him to help talk to the cook and try to be as fast as possible.

I ordered the wine, the most famous home-brewed brewery in the store, but I only ordered a small pot.

The wine and cold dishes that came first were lukewarm.

The one sitting opposite looked at the wine jug and shook his head disapprovingly and said, "We still have business, you actually ordered wine." ā€

"Don't you know, this wine is famous in the town, you can take a sip and go to the cold."

"On the one hand, it also helps us both to strengthen our courage, and we will have to see you later"

The person sitting in the seat sighed, reached out and picked up the flask placed on the table, and then poured a small glass of wine for himself. (怂 )
