Chapter 1208: Old Guests in the Capital

Guo Kun was very moved in his heart, he knew Lin Jue's intentions. Lin Jue can entrust the affairs to Ma Bin and others, and there is no need to hand over the big things to himself. But his purpose in doing this is actually obvious, one is out of trust in himself, so that he understands that he is not selfish, and he cares about himself. The second is to establish his prestige in the army and integrate into the decision-making level of the Luoyan Army. Otherwise, he will always be a symbol and a dispensable role in the eyes of the soldiers of the Luoyan Army. Lin Jue conveyed an important message to the soldiers in this way, that is, King Feng Bianliang was the master, and that was not lip service. In fact, all power belongs to Guo Kun, and this must be made clear.

"In this case, the king will take his responsibility for the time being, but I still want all my brothers to help me, and I will not make any claims. Fortunately, there was nothing important during this time, and it didn't have much impact. In the event of a battle or other important decision, it is up to you to decide. So, you must come back early. You can't do without it here. Guo Kun said.

Lin Jue smiled: "That's natural, I'll be back in two months at most, whether it is successful or not, I can't stay outside for a long time." After all, Brother Liang is right, I have no place outside now. ”

Liang Qi blushed and said, "Strategist, I just said that, but I don't mean anything else." ”

Lin Jue laughed and said, "I know, it's just a joke." This is the matter of calling you here today, as you please, and I will leave in a moment. ”

Everyone was stunned and said, "Let's go?" ”

Lin Jue nodded and said: "Sooner rather than later, this snow is not small, if the mountain road is closed, it will be difficult to walk." You have to get out of the mountain before the snow accumulates. Brothers, let's leave it at that, and go about our own business, and don't send me off. I didn't want this matter to be publicized, in case there was a detailed work to know about it and pass on the news, but I would be unable to move outside the mountain. ”

Everyone nodded one after another, and it was true that the news of the military division's departure from the mountain could not be known to outsiders. There must still be a fine work in the mountains, and if the news is passed out, the officers and soldiers intercept them halfway, or go to the destination to wait for the rabbit, the military division will encounter danger.

Guo Kun said in a deep voice: "What Lin Jue said is very true, brothers don't publicize this matter." Since Lin Jue will leave immediately, our brothers will replace wine with tea, so we will say goodbye. Come on, come on, raise the teacup, and wish Lin Jue a smooth journey, smooth behavior, and an early return. ”

Everyone raised the teacup one after another, wishing the military advisor to cherish it all the way, Lin Jue laughed, tilted his neck and drank the tea in the cup.

An hour later, in the heavy snow like swan feathers, everyone in the Lin family bid farewell to Lin Jue on the slope of Dongshan Mountain. Although Lin Jue's decision was sudden, although the wives and concubines were reluctant, they could not stop it. They know that their husband's burden is not light, and he can't stay at home and enjoy family fun like ordinary people. As his family, they can only silently give their blessings, hoping that he can return safely.

Lin Jue went down the mountain with more than a dozen guards in the earnest instructions of his wives and concubines and in the faint tears. On the hillside, Fang Huanqiu, the lord of the Green Dance County, and the others refused to leave for a long time, until the figures of Lin Jue and his party disappeared in the diffuse wind and snow, and then they turned home in a depressed mood.

Lin Jue only brought ten guards with him on this trip, and they were accompanied by Sun Dayong and nine carefully selected good hands. In addition, Bai Bing and Gao Muqing also followed Lin Jue. Of course, this is not because Lin Jue is worried about the loneliness of the journey, but this time he must be accompanied by capable people, how can the two people with strong martial arts around Lin Jue not accompany him to protect. Of course, it was Lin Jue's selfishness to bring Gao Muqing out, Gao Muqing had almost no chance to go out of the mountains to see the outside world in the past few years, and this time Lin Jue naturally wanted to take her out. Although it is not a trip to the mountains and rivers, it can be regarded as allowing Gao Muqing to jump out of the cage and see the scenery outside.

The group set off at noon, and after noon, they had already left the Dongshan Canyon and were on the avenue outside Funiu Mountain. Lin Jue reined in his horses and turned to look at the valley where he came, but found that there was a vast white snow behind him, and he could no longer see the undulating mountains in Funiu Mountain. The heavens and the earth were confused, as if there were only a dozen people left on the earth. It's a strange feeling.

After simply eating dry food, everyone began to move forward with strength, all the way to the east. I don't know if it's because of the jealousy of the Wild Goose Army, or because of some other reason. The distance of Funiu Mountain within a radius of fifty miles did not encounter any officers and soldiers. It seems that the officers and soldiers of the state capital on the left have all cowered in the county and county seats, and have given up the blockade of the roads near Funiu Mountain.

But Lin Jue will not be deceived by such an illusion, he will not rashly enter the distance controlled by the surrounding county and state capitals. Because Lin Jue knew that in order to block the supply of materials to Funiu Mountain, all the surrounding state capitals had implemented a policy similar to that of clearing the wilderness. Most of the people were included in the city, and the city's defenses were strengthened. It was impossible for the Wild Goose Army to complete some trade exchanges with the common people, let alone allow any useful supplies to flow out of the city. Abandoning the checkpoints in the area around Funiu Mountain is precisely to concentrate forces to defend the surrounding cities. It may seem like a sign of weakness, but it is the smartest and most reasonable way to do it.

Relying on the city, controlling the situation, and blocking the entry and exit of materials is a disguised siege. And this is exactly what Bai Qi suggested to Guo Xu when he retired from the army. Moreover, when the army retreated, 30,000 soldiers stayed behind and were stationed in the city of Ruzhou. This was originally a box soldier from elsewhere, but at the moment he stayed near the left side of Funiu Mountain, as part of the blockade of the garrison and horses. Bai Qi still has some talent for leading the army, and this move is precisely a countermeasure left to prevent the Luoyan army from marching outside the mountains to attack the county seat after the retreat of the army.

This way Xiaoxing stayed overnight, in a place full of wind and snow, in the severe cold and frost, and still entered the land of Gyeonggi a few days later. Hundreds of miles away from Funiu Mountain, the snow in Gyeonggi does not seem to be large, only a slight snow covers the mountains, and the weather is also sunny, making the journey much easier.

A few days later, they arrived in a small market town in Zhujia Town, southeast of Gyeonggi, and everyone stayed in the market town for one night, because more than a dozen people traveled with each other and all rode horses, so it attracted many side-eyed eyes. That night, Lin Jue made a decision.

"Brother Sun, we will arrive in the capital tomorrow night, although we are dressed as businessmen, but the capital is strictly investigated, and we are afraid of getting into trouble on the same road, I want to ask Brother Sun to take the brothers to take the first step and detour the capital to the east. Ten days later, how about we gather in Yingtianfu? Lin Jue said to Sun Dayong in the guest room.

Sun Dayong hurriedly said: "How can that be?" I'm here to protect Lord Lin, how can I leave with my brothers? If so, what is the matter? If the adults feel a little swaggering, tomorrow we will divide into several groups to walk. Anyway, if we don't enter the capital, nothing should happen. ”

Lin Jue waved his hand and said, "No, I want to go to the capital, and it is because of this that I let you go first." With so many people entering the capital, it is inevitable that there will be mistakes, which is inappropriate. ”

Sun Dayong was stunned and said, "Didn't you say that you wouldn't go to the capital?" Why are you going to enter the capital again? It's not a good place to go, Lord Lin thought twice. ”

Lin Jue said: "I said that I won't enter the capital, but I have a private matter to deal with, and since I came, I always have to deal with it." You know, my second uncle didn't follow my Lin family into the mountain, and everyone in the family was worried about his safety. I guess I should have been arrested by the imperial court, and I don't know whether I live or die. So I want to go into the capital to find out what is missing, and when I go back, I can explain the situation to the Lin family. Live or die, there's always a piece of news, isn't it? So I can only go to Beijing to investigate. ”

Sun Dayong frowned and was speechless, and was about to speak to stop Lin Jue, but saw Lin Jue take out a thin mask from his arms and put it on his face, and instantly changed from a handsome young man to a middle-aged man's face.

"Brother Sun, do you still recognize me? This is the mask given to me by Commander Shen, I only need to disguise myself, and I can swagger into the capital, and no one will recognize me. Bai Bing and Mu Qing also have masks, and they can also protect me when they go with me. Now you can rest assured. Lin Jue changed his face and spoke in a different voice.

Sun Dayong had nothing to say, so he had to nod and agree, although he was not at ease in his heart. But with such disguise and transformation methods, and Bai Bing and Gao Muqing accompanying them for protection, there should be no problem. Lord Lin only said that he was going to listen to the news, so he wouldn't do anything.

Early the next morning, when Lin Jue walked out of the inn with Bai Bing and Gao Muqing, he had already turned into a middle-aged wealthy businessman with a bloated figure, with two concubines dressed as flowers. hired a big car in the town, and the three of them changed into the rich landlords of the place where they took their concubines to the capital to play, and went straight to the capital along the official road.

In the evening of that day, under the bloody sunset, Lin Jue saw the outline of the majestic and continuous huge city in front of him from the car window. The capital has arrived.

In fact, the time to leave the capital is not long, and it is only more than three months. When he saw the tall walls and gates of the capital towering there, Lin Jue felt a sense of strangeness. Once upon a time, he was also a figure in this city, but at this moment, he had to change his face to come here. Life is so wonderful at this time and at that time, and many things are difficult for you to predict.

"Sir! I'm in the capital. Bai Bingjiao, who was sitting beside him, said.

Bai Bing wears a mask like a bewitching and delicate woman. His face is snow-white, his red lips are like fire, and his eyebrows are still lit with flowers. The positioning is a concubine next to Lin Jue, who is known as Master Fang. Therefore, he called Lin Jue as the master.

"Yes, sir, I've arrived in the capital, and the capital is like this. That's amazing. Gao Muqing also incarnated into the appearance of a delicate woman, wearing a big red flower on her bun, and her whole temperament was very different.

Lin Jue was pulled back by the words of the two, nodded and smiled: "Ah Shui, Ah Qing, follow the master to the capital." Master, what I have is silver, let's eat all over the capital, play all over the capital, and have a good time. Tube pack you happy. ”

The driver hired on the wheel showed disdain, and said in his heart: "Three dirt buns, how much silver can you have, and dare to say that you can play all over the capital and eat all over the capital?" I'm afraid you don't know that the capital is a gold cave, and Fan Lou has a meal of hundreds of taels of silver, can you afford to eat? ”
