Chapter Fifty-Six: Joining the Army in the North

If you chase farther away, can you come back before nightfall? You won't go around too far and won't come back, will you? The servants wanted to know this. They are particularly concerned about the overnight stay and the meal.

Yu Hexian felt that it was good to stay in the mountains. Why do you have to rush back? Pitch a tent or something, it's so much fun.

"But those things are too big and heavy, and they're not lucky." Cao Mujian said to him.

They were hunting, and they weren't really armies, they had a baggage squad or something. The place where the antelope haunts will not be too flat, and it is indeed difficult to transport large things. But you can carry some lighter basic supplies, just in case. It can only be just in case. When you go out for the first time, you can step on the plate first, and then consider sleeping in the open after you are familiar with it.

Yu Heyan accepted this condition.

I was about to go out hunting for the antelope, when news came back from the front. Yu Heyan thought that he could fight, and his spirits were lifted. Who knew that it was Yun Jian who caught the spy, so he asked the rear to check the spy. It is better to be more careful than to take it lightly.

So Weicheng also opened an investigation here. Yu Heyan doesn't know much about this, it's all the civilian staff assigned to him by Mrs. Yu who works diligently, he stamps his seal, goes out for a walk when necessary, scares and scares people, or something. He felt depressed.

"It's very important. A spy is like a grain of rat, which can spoil a pot of porridge. You have to pay more attention. Cao Mujian spoke bitterly.

Yu He instantly deserves to have a mouth but no heart.

"You can also familiarize yourself with the information of Weicheng." Cao Mujian gave him the local chronicles.

Yu He looked at the calligraphy and painting in a daze, his eyes blank.

Cao Mujian was also helpless, so he called a local who was articulate and easy: "Try to be as interesting as possible." Listen to the son. ”

The locals should come down, and they want to interpret it on the basis of ready-made stories and legends for Yu He to listen to.

"When we're sure there are no more spies, we'll go hunting." Cao Mujian comforted Yu Hexian.

"Medium! If there are no more rats, go sheep hunting! Yu Hexian finally got the momentum.

North No. 2 Station.

It is the station where Cloud Sword is located.

There are two people who rushed from the south to the north through the wind and rain, which is also hard, but it is still smooth, close to the station, and it is difficult to be cross-examined. Finally brought into the camp. The one who brought them was Zhang Shenxian, who had just entered the military world and had a low rank, but he was trusted by Yunjian. Therefore, it can be independent. When you come to greet guests and inspect your belongings. Very polite attitude. Polite but also with authority, on the way to meet the patrol soldiers, the soldiers solemnly behaved. He took the two into the guest tent. said: "Brother Chi, Brother Fox, the tokens of the two have been confirmed, but General Zhang can't come back for a while." You wait, the training is over, and the general will come back. ”

The creep served two glasses of water for the guests.

Alcohol is prohibited in the barracks. Even if you entertain guests, it's just a glass of water.

The fox lady saw the soldiers outside the camp solemnly patrolling the camp and walked over, and heard the camp being strangely quiet, only the sound of the camp flag hunting and flying in the wind. She had a strong feeling that the barracks were really different from their bandits' barracks.

She thought that joining the army might indeed be a good choice. Xiao Chi has always been unreliable, and this time, things are done upside down on the big folds.

Why is she on the north side? In fact, the fox lady herself is also at a loss.

The business affairs in the southwest are doing well, but you can't go to the fairy jump and eat big households, and the fox lady is a little stuffy. Father Chi suddenly disappeared again, and when he heard that his brother was sick, he rushed to visit. I never came back. Chi Tao cried and returned to the business to report the news, and the fox lady knew that it was the uncle of the Chi family who was wiped out by the Hu people at the border, and Father Chi was so angry that he was bedridden. Chi Tao asked the firm for leave to take care of his father and got leave. The fox lady was not at ease and wanted to come to see him, Chi Tao also happened to come to her and invited her: "Let's go north to join the army together, right?" ”

"Just know that you don't have to take care of your father." The fox lady pouted at him.

Chi Tao rarely had no smile and a straight face. The fox lady was stunned by him, and unconsciously sat upright, asking, "What's the matter?" ”

Chi Tao talked about what happened to his relatives in the frontier, then talked about what happened to other Han people, and finally contacted the country and the nation, and the conclusion was that he wanted to join the army.

He joined the army, which is great filial piety and great loyalty.

And he graciously invited the fox lady to go with him.

The fox lady's reaction was: No, thank you.

Also: What do I do make you think I'm interested in the Great Filial Piety Society?

Chi Tao had to make a big killer move: Sister! You see how well Miss Lin opened the trade route in the north. Everyone praised her. The salt bar also relied on her......

The fox lady instantly became bad: what's so great about her? I can't do it if she does it?

Chi Tao patted the horse and fanned the wind: That's! Sister, you can too! As long as you can go to the north too!

The fox lady has a brain - no, a hot brain: Of course I can too.

So the two of them went to the barracks together. The fox lady's children dress up as men in order to move.

Along the way, the fox lady didn't hear that the northern business was suddenly transferred underground by even the pot end and the southwest business.

This matter was said in Chi Tao's letter.

When Zhang Shenxian inspected the tokens, he also accepted the letter, and entertained the fox lady and Chi Tao to stay well, waiting for Xie Yunjian to come back. The fox lady glanced at Chi Tao. Chi Tao said: "Oh, we want to help the military quartermasters, I don't know if your army is willing to buy things from civilian merchants?" ”

Zhang Shenxian said: "Oh, at present, the imperial court has sufficient supply, so there is no need to purchase anything for the time being." The people in the neighborhood may want to buy something, but they are afraid that they will be poor and will not be able to buy much. ”

Chi Tao said: "Can we take a walk?" Soldiers buy things directly from us, is the military order allowed? ”

Zhang Shenxian said: "At present, the general is not here, we are closed to the camp, and we are not allowed to do anything." The two brothers can calm down for a while and wait for the general to return. ”

The two of them finished talking about the ghost fox Zen in a serious way, and Zhang Shenxian left. The fox lady noticed that there was no one outside the tent, so she said to Chi Tao: "Your relatives are really capable, how did you get this letter of introduction?" People are so polite to us. ”

She didn't know that what Chi Tao brought over was the letter that Xie Xiaohengrang brought to Xie Yunjian. Zhang Shenxian was of course polite.

Chi Tao said nonsense in his mouth: "In fact, there are small wars in the north every year. They live here, they all know! Everyone has to live, how can they be separated from businessmen? So there's a routine. I took the bail of a few of their old local gentlemen, and of course the military could trust it. ”

The fox lady nodded and said, "Just listen to them, there is no big deal to do." ”

Chi Tao encouraged: "I'm a newcomer, of course I don't know much. It's good to be familiar with it. I think we used to sell snow and sand......" Although he used incision and black words, he couldn't help but lower his voice. The fox lady also looked out hurriedly. After making sure it was okay, Chi Tao continued: "Just talking about catties and taels, it is not a valuable thing, it can't be compared with gold, silver, pearls and jade, it has opened up the market, but it is not a good profit?" Miss Lin didn't dare to come to the front line, so she was in the middle of the gangsters, and she was already full of oil. What's more, we have entered the tiger's den? Of course, there will be tigers. ”

The fox lady listened to it and made sense. I only hate the current martial law and camp, and I really can't do anything. She and Chi Tao had no choice but to face each other day and night in the guest tent, looking for some games to entertain. Fortunately, Chi Tao is proficient in all arts and can speak well. It's a small day, but it's also comfortable.

On that day, I heard a commotion outside.

It's not the kind of noise that is full of people at the entrance of the vegetable market, it's 10,000 wolves stepping on the ground, 10,000 heavy clouds and thunder, the kind of powerful and oppressive sound, not noisy, but too powerful, so it touches people's hearts.

How many days can the fox lady be in the idle tent? I was used to being quiet, and when I heard the spring thunder at first glance, I was bluffing the color, and I almost wanted to cover my ears.

Zhang Shenxian was happy to move the color: the general returned to the camp victoriously!

Belch! Officer, you said he didn't take the troops out for drills? How did you return to camp in victory? Could it be that during the exercise, I ran into Hu Bing and had an encounter by the way?

It's not impossible. Like there was a general in the previous dynasty, also at the border, but also led the troops to refuse the Hu people, the days have not been fought for a long time, and the people are also a little negligent, one day with a few personal soldiers, they went out to practice archery, and by the way they hunted. I thought it was my own territory, but who knew that I would encounter Hu Jun!

This is also to blame on the territory of the north, which is too desolate, and the wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep, which is also good, sometimes it is the infinitely stretched ground, with rolling hills, but no peaks; There are weeds close to the ground, but there are no big trees. As far as the eye can see, there is not even a single cow or sheep! Because there are not so many cattle and sheep outside the Guan, the herdsmen have to choose the most abundant places for water and grass to graze them, so many places are idle in vain.

Geographical indications, cities and villages, etc., are even less respected. Where can it be like the territory of the Han people in Guannei, with fixed roads and city wall buildings, which have not changed for decades or hundreds of years, and can be used as a reference for passers-by?

The boundaries are not clear, and there is no satellite map longitude and latitude to accurately locate, no wonder everyone is rushing around, and sometimes it is chaotic.

The hapless general also ran into a bit of morning fog. When the fog cleared, he found himself trapped in the enemy's army.

Don't say that he is confused, even the enemy is confused: what about dreaming? Fat sheep! Or is it the leader of the fat sheep, which is in the mouth? Traps? Is it toxic? I can't believe it!

It was still the unlucky general who reacted first and quickly got on his horse and rushed to kill. Before the enemy could bite him, he was stabbed through the throat first. The general took two or three kittens and rushed out of the bloody battle all the way and ran back to the barracks. The enemy failed to capture him. This encounter became a legend.

Cloud Sword is already a legend, he already disdains another legend, what he needs is a great achievement. A real big victory to break the border deadlock. Because winter here is coming.

Winter comes early, and the temperature drops rapidly just after summer. The grass is busy withering and yellow, and grazing is not easy. The difficult season for the nomads has arrived.

Their dominant season is in spring and summer, when the water melts and the grass grows, the horses and sheep grow fat, and their strength increases, which is a suitable season for invasion. They failed to invade and were already deeply afraid of the Han army. The enemy was afraid, and the Han army just started fighting.

General Sky Wolf is not a person who is afraid of fighting. (To be continued......)
