Two days later

March 30 of the fifteenth year of the calendar

A mountain road near the border of Xiechun and Jun counties

Disperse a few guards to send detectives, Sun Yu took the map and explained to the white eunuch in the carriage.

"Father-in-law, the front is to cross the cloud bridge, after crossing the cloud bridge, we will arrive in Jun County, we have received information before, and now Jun County Zhou Jun is shrinking his forces and confronting General Yan in the county seat.

Therefore, at this time, except for some Zhou army ranger scouts in Jun County, there was no main Zhou army blocking the way. ”

Traveling for several days made the white eunuch tired, and the word tired was written on the white fat face, and when he heard what Sun Yu said, he shook his shoulders and asked.

"In other words, don't cross the bridge in front of you, and the rest will be easy to go?"

"That's right."

Sun Yu nodded, and a gleam flashed in his eyes: "When we arrive in Jun County, even if it is our territory, even if we meet a small group of Zhou Jun rangers, we will not be afraid of it with our strength."

What's more, before we set off, Di Shuai sent someone Pegasus to send the matter of your decree to General Yan urgently, according to our estimation, it is not possible that when we enter Jun County, we will be able to meet the people sent by General Yan. ”

"That's very good."

Hearing that this frightened day was coming to an end, the white eunuch was very happy and patted his palms lightly.

"Then let's hurry up and go straight to Jun County in one go."

…………

"Uh........."

Sun Yu choked speechlessly, this matter is so easy, I still have to discuss it with you, and with a wry smile, he pulled the white eunuch and explained.

"Father-in-law, things are not as simple as you think now, the last general has just sent someone to see it, this cloud bridge is the junction of Xiechun and Jun County.

Because of the detour of General Yan, not long ago, the garrison of Xiechun County set up a new camp checkpoint here, and the number of garrisons was about nearly 2,000 people.

Now, if we want to pass, we must pass the exploration of this level, which is by no means easy, if one is not good, we will have to face the siege of two thousand Zhou troops, and even cause the transfer of the rest of the Zhou army of Xiechun. ”

Sun Yu's explanation was quite straightforward, even if the white eunuch didn't know anything about military affairs, he could faintly feel the seriousness of the matter from it, Bai Fat's brows furrowed, and asked.

"In that case, can you take a detour from here?"

Sun Yu shook his head, a little embarrassed: "This place is connected to a large tributary of the Canghe River, the largest river in Beiling Prefecture, the width of both banks is about ten zhang, and the river is turbulent, and there are many dark stones inside, and the boat cannot cross it.

In the entire western border of Xiechun, the cloud bridge is the only place nearby that can cross the river, otherwise the Zhou army would not have set up a heavy defense here.

If we make a detour at this time, we will return to the original road for dozens of miles, and then find another way, not to mention the delay time, what we are most afraid of is that we will run all the way, alarming the Zhou army in the territory, and it will be bad if there are other twists and turns. ”

When the white eunuch heard this, his face was ugly, and he reprimanded lightly: "Since this is the case, why didn't you change the road earlier, Bai Bai is now facing a dilemma." ”

Sun Yu was reprimanded speechlessly: "Father-in-law forgives the sin, it is the last general's carelessness, I didn't expect this cloud bridge to be so tricky, according to the original plan, let's pretend to be a merchant, stuff some silver for the guard, and get through the trick."

I didn't want to wait on the road, but I found that the territory of the Zhou army was inaccessible, and there were no merchants at all, plus the many things proposed by the palace gentleman in the Shun Wangfu before, and then implemented according to the original plan, the last general was really afraid that the Zhou army would see through it. ”

…………

When the white eunuch heard this, he looked at the embarrassed Sun Yu with a dissatisfied face, but he did not reprimand him again.

Speaking of which, Sun Yu is really not to blame for this, because he is in adversity, so the Zhou army is extremely well guarded in the territory, even the spies of Long Xiao School and the scouts of the Jin army cannot know all the information of Xiechun and Jun County.

Even when Yan Kui and Di Yi are usually in contact, they send elite scouts to sneak in quietly, and they also have to cooperate with flying pigeons to pass on books, spy intelligence and other means.

It is the first time that a crossing of a hundred people like Sun Yu has made mistakes, and it is inevitable.

In fact, Sun Yu waited all the way to cross the cloud bridge before encountering problems, which is already a very amazing achievement.

If the agents of the Prosecutor's Office in charge of the intelligence of the Zhou army in Beiling City learned that the Jin army had mixed in with a small force and quietly crossed most of the Zhou army's defense area, I am afraid that they would have been angry and killed their subordinates.

However, no matter what, now the two thousand Zhou troops who crossed the cloud bridge are here.

Can't get by?

How?

This was a great test for both Sun Yu and Eunuch Bai.

As the leader of the team's guards, he was very conflicted about his feelings at this time, not only did he not want to take risks for safety reasons, but he was also afraid of delaying time and causing trouble, which was really a dilemma.

Therefore, he planned to ask for the opinion of Eunuch Bai, after all, this was the real person in charge of the team, and the decision made by Sun Yu also depended on his meaning.

After listening to Sun Yu's words, the white eunuch fell into deep thought, held the general's belly, and turned back and forth around the carriage with his hands behind his back for more than thirty times, and finally gritted his teeth and stomped his feet and shouted.

"The head has a scar the size of a bowl, our family has been in the palace for so many years, I haven't seen any scenes, just two thousand thieves, how to be afraid."

After that, the white eunuch looked at Sun Yu with red eyes, gritted his teeth and said: "General Sun Bi, our family doesn't know martial arts, and we have to rely on you to cross the bridge, since the back road is suspicious, then today is to break through, and we have to kill it, and the emperor does not dare to be disdainful,"

"Father-in-law is righteous, the last general will fight for his life, and he will escort you across the other side."

The white eunuch nodded, and was in no mood to say anything, so he asked Sun Yu to arrange the battle, and he recruited two little eunuchs, and climbed into the carriage tremblingly, ready to recuperate, and when he entered the carriage, the white eunuch seemed to think of something, and looked back at Sun Yu.

"But what kind of sharp blade can be given to our family, if something really goes wrong, our family can't be a prisoner of the thief that week."

Looking at the white eunuch with an indifferent face, Sun Yu admired it, gave a deep salute to the carriage, and then took a dagger from his waist and put it into the hands of the white eunuch with both hands.

"This is passed on by my father, and the last general hopes that when he arrives in Jun County, his father-in-law can return the last general as promised."

"Haha, our family doesn't have a hobby of stealing people's love."

The white eunuch took the dagger with a smile, played with it twice, praised a good knife, and then looked at Sun Yu and arched his hand slightly.

"I'm tired."

"It's a matter of duty."

Sun Yu returned the salute, turned around and strode to the front of the team, assigning tasks to his subordinates.

He had a hunch that crossing the Cloud Bridge would probably be a tough battle...............

…………

An hour later

Cross the Cloud Bridge Zhou Army Checkpoint

Looking at the convoy slowly approaching under the banner of the business name, at the checkpoint in front of the bridge, Zhou Jun Qianhu, who was in charge of today's guards, came to the spirit.

He waved his hand lightly to the side, and the five hundred Zhou troops under the four levels straightened their waists, clenched their weapons, and entered a state of defense.

"Stop coming, the military plane is heavy, don't get close, turn around and leave quickly."

There was no need for Zhou Jun's thousands of households to speak, and a hundred households below jumped out to shout to the convoy.

The marching convoy stopped, but did not leave, on the contrary, several people dressed as leaders came out of the convoy, approaching the level with smiles on their faces.

"Stop, who told you to come?" Baihu shouted angrily.

"Master Jun, Master Jun, don't get me wrong, we are our own people, and we have something to talk to Master Jun."

The visitor stopped and said with a flattering smile.

“………”

Baihu didn't reply, turned his head to look at Qianhu behind him, saw that the boss nodded slightly, and shouted to the convoy.

"Come here."

The person who came hurriedly trotted forward and threw his hand at the hundred households: "Thank you Jun Ye, Jun Ye Wan An." ”

"Okay, stop those polite words, honestly, who are you? What are you doing when you come to Cloud Bridge? Baihu waved his hand impatiently and shouted at the people.

The person who came was not angry, and replied with a respectful smile: "If you go back to the military master, the villain is the second shopkeeper of the Xue family's business house, and his surname is Sun."

We are on the orders of the owner to go to Jun County to do business, so we have to go to the other side, and the military master raises his noble hand to help, and the little ones are grateful. ”

As he spoke, this "shopkeeper Sun" had an extra silver ingot and a silver ticket in his hand, and quietly stuffed them into the hands of hundreds of households.

"You take this silver, and you are tired to help pass the word to the adults above, and this silver ticket invites the adults and brothers to drink tea."

"Ahem."

Baihu quietly weighed the silver ingot in his hand, there were about twenty taels, and glanced at the amount of the silver ticket again, his face was flushed, and he gasped.

A full five hundred taels of snowflake silver.

Good guys, what a big deal!

Baihu was shocked by the number of silver tickets, and it took a long time to come to his senses, and after that, he glanced at the "Shopkeeper Sun", the expression on his face softened a lot, and said slowly.

"You wait here, I'll go and ask us Qianhu."

"You're busy, you're busy."

"Shopkeeper Sun" is very sensible, understands that this is a hundred households to give a quote to the boss, and shows patience.

…………

At the back of the level

Baihu hurriedly came to Zhou Junqianhu's side, and his face couldn't suppress the joy.

"Big brother, I've made a fortune, and a big fat sheep has come."

"Oh."

Qianhu became interested and asked, "What do you say?" ”

"It's five hundred taels as soon as I make a shot, and I'm very arrogant."

Baihu snorted excitedly, and then hurriedly presented the silver ticket, but he didn't mention the twenty taels of "errand fees".

Qianhu didn't know Baihu's small abacus, and he looked at the five hundred taels of silver tickets in front of him at this time, and his eyes were red.

Five hundred taels!

Even if he gave some points to his subordinates, the rest would be enough for him to buy dozens of acres of land in the countryside............

"What do these people want to do?"

Qianhu was slightly obsessed and touched the silver ticket for a while, then put away the silver ticket, regained some calm, and asked.

"Crossing the bridge, I said I was going to Jun County to do business."

Baihu looked at the silver ticket that was put away, his eyes were a little reluctant, but he also knew that this thing had nothing to do with him, so he secretly bit his tongue and replied.

"Merchant?"

Qianhu read a sentence, and a sneer appeared on his face: "What kind of business can make so much money, and it will be five hundred taels when you make a move?" ”

"You mean .........," Baihu hesitated.

"Eighty percent of these people are smugglers."

Qianhu looked confident: "I heard that because the Jin army in Junxian County is divided with the main force, some military supplies are insufficient, especially traumatic medicinal materials, war horse concentrate feed, etc., Xiaoguan and Yuhutan have no reserves, and the Jin army is in urgent need, so they issued a heavy request. Purchase.

So, we have a group of caravans who took the initiative to help and made a lot of profits, and now under our rule, only these smugglers have the confidence to spend a lot of money. ”

"I see, this convoy wants to resell and smuggle the enemy from us, no wonder it is so generous, what should I do with the eldest brother, do you want to take them and deal with them by military law." Baihu suddenly realized, and then said indignantly.

"Take what to take"

Qianhu pursed his lips and said with a look of disdain: "Do you think that a group of businessmen would dare to smuggle with the Jin army?" These people all have backstage, and I heard that many of these smuggling caravans have big names in the army behind them, and if you take them, believe it or not, tomorrow you and I will not be able to save my life.

Forget it, we little minions can't control these pickled things, and besides, people have also given a lot of filial piety, so let's make a good fate and let them go. ”

"Understood, I'll let them pass." Baihu answered, and stepped forward to negotiate with the waiting "shopkeeper Sun".

…………

After a while, in the gratitude of the "shopkeeper Sun", the hundred households let people lift the barricades.

"Shopkeeper Sun" hurriedly led the convoy out of the checkpoint and crossed the bridge, but just as the back of the convoy had just stepped into the cross-cloud bridge, a group of cavalry suddenly rushed out of the camp next to the checkpoint.

Led by cavalry, a young man dressed as a thousand households of the Zhou army saw the convoy crossing the bridge, and hurriedly shouted angrily.

"These people are behaving differently, and they can't be let go."

However, it was too late, the convoy had all been on the bridge at this time, and the carriage in front was already almost on the opposite bank, hearing the knight's shouting, the face of the "shopkeeper Sun" behind the convoy hall changed, not only did not stop, but loudly urged the convoy to move quickly.

"Oh no, I've been tricked."

Seeing this scene, Qianhu, who was still stroking the five hundred taels of silver tickets, didn't know what was wrong, took the spear next to him, and called his subordinates to Sergeant Zhou, and chased after the convoy............
