Late at night, the caravan's camp was no longer noisy, most of them had gone to sleep, and only the men on duty were still resisting the invasion of sleep.

An arrow rang out, and the screams that followed tore apart the silence of the night.

Inside the camp, more than 10 veterans jumped into the carriage and looked into the darkness.

There was no movement around except for the fire cordon laid by the caravan. It seemed that the scream was just a hallucination of the group.

Looking at the carriage under their feet, the veterans all showed satisfied looks.

It's nice to have these four-wheelers.

When camping, just a simple row, unload the horses, and the carriage hooks up to form a stable line of defense. Moreover, the defense line formed by a stable four-wheeled vehicle is far greater than that of a two-wheeled vehicle that was unstable in the past.

After looking around for a long time, I only heard some faint movement in the distance, but the surroundings of the camp were unusually quiet. The veterans couldn't see anything unusual, and slowly disappeared into the darkness.

The day dawned, and the night passed peacefully.

After the caravan restarted on the road, some people found that there seemed to be a lot fewer spies surrounding the caravan.

Thinking about the faint movement last night, it seems that there seemed to be a skirmish between the robbers last night, maybe it was to fight for the right to rob, right?

It seems that the caravan has really become a piece of Tang monk meat, but I don't know what kind of big monsters it will attract.

Looking at the spies running around the caravan unscrupulously, Li Zhao was a little irritable. He leaned over to Zhang Yunyi and asked in a low voice, "Head, are we going to arrest them and ask for information." ”

Zhang Yunyi looked at him a little speechlessly, "Dude, we are a caravan!" Do you think we're here to fight? In broad daylight, you just want to arrest people? Why are you? ”

was counted down by Zhang Yunyi, and Li Zhao was left with only touching his head and smirking.

Looking left and right, Zhang Yunyi lowered his voice and said, "If you want to catch them, you won't catch them at night." Have you been working for so many years without collecting at night? ”

That's right!

Hearing Zhang Yunyi say this, Li Zhao's eyes lit up, and he sneakily beckoned a few veterans to carefully discuss the plan.

The capital, the palace of the king

"What did you say?" Zhu Youzhen didn't believe his ears a little.

As far as the pair of Dong'an Feng brothers are obsessed, can they be Houjin's spies?

It's so different!

This really can't be blamed on Zhu Youzhen for judging people by their appearance, it's really that the obese appearance of the Feng family brothers is too deceptive.

"What the hell is going on? How could Dongchang check on them? Zhu Youzhen asked curiously.

Seeing that His Royal Highness was very interested, Wang Chengen told the matter from the beginning.

It's also very simple, Dongchang didn't go to the Feng family brothers in the first place, they simply suffered an unwarranted disaster.

The East Factory went to the gang that hijacked the ship.

The guys who hijacked the ship were really mysterious. The East Factory only came out of the mouths of the pirates who had caught, and their heads were from the south, and there were no other clues.

And by the Haihe River, the hideout dug out of the pirates' mouths has long been empty. Even if Dongchang leveled the village, he didn't get any clues.

The investigation of the East Plant has reached an impasse.

The investigation is deadlocked, and Dongchang Fanzi can't stand it.

You must know that Gonggong Wei is still staring at them behind his back!

In desperation, the investigators of the East Factory could only expand the scope of the search. Investigate everything that has nothing to do with it.

It can also be regarded as the bad luck of the Feng brothers. Because they ran into Zhu Youzhen, they also had a little bit of a relationship with the ship robbery incident and turned 17 or 8 turns. Dongchang also investigated them by the way.

After a check, it was found that the Feng brothers were secretly transporting grain to Liaodong, and the transport was still sweet potatoes.

If you don't say that the Feng brothers are unlucky, it's just ordinary grain to be smuggled. Sweet potatoes are a rare novelty. The Dongchang fan of the investigation fell on the heart.

Dongchang Fanzi checked in detail, and this time it was terrible. Sweet potatoes have such a large output, and the target of the Feng family brothers' smuggling is still a merchant in Houjin.

Yes, this time, the Feng family brothers will not be able to run away from the charge of fornication.

Dongchang arrested the Feng brothers for the first trial, and the Feng brothers were recruited. They are also collecting money to do things, and for them, as long as they have money, they dare to sell anything.

Hearing this, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but sigh. He remembered the Jinshang Group in his memory in his previous life.

Isn't there such a saying in the previous life, if it weren't for the secret support of the Jin Shang Group, how could Houjin survive the economic blockade of the Ming Dynasty.

Geographically, the Jin merchants should have smuggled through the grasslands and Houjin, right?

Are they hooked up now?

Couldn't help it, Zhu Youzhen looked in the direction of the grassland.

His plan should have begun, and I wonder what happened to the junior team?

grassland

In the caravan's new camp, Zheng Ming, Zhang Yunyi, Zheng Ping, Niu Jinxing, and Zhang Junhao no longer had relaxed expressions on their faces. They all stared at Li Zhao with heavy faces.

"Isn't that wrong?" The old shopkeeper Zheng Ming couldn't help but ask again.

"You shouldn't be wrong." Li Zhao's mood was also extremely heavy.

When he heard the news for the first time, Li Zhao's performance was also not believing his ears.

How could such a large force have its eyes on the caravan. The Mongols are still shameless, are they not going to trade with the Ming Dynasty again?

The old shopkeeper Zheng Ming was in a particularly heavy mood. He was originally opposed to this plan, but he reluctantly agreed for the sake of His Royal Highness King Xin's face.

But he also underestimated the need for supplies in the grassland.

Zheng Ming felt very self-blaming, he felt that what he should have wanted.

The grasslands have been in chaos in recent years, and the lives of various tribes are obviously not easy. Even the middle tribes have a precedent for extinction, which shows the hardships of the grasslands now.

And these tribes close to Liaodong are more affected by the war, but I am afraid that the life of those big tribes is not very easy, and it is very possible to take risks to grab a hand.

Life is going to be unbearable, who will think about the future.

Thinking of this, the old man couldn't hold back any longer. He said in a deep voice: "We can't move forward, we may still have time to turn back." ”

The other people glanced at each other a few times, and Zhang Yunyi said, "It's too late." According to the news that Li Zhao got in front of us, it was the Zalut tribe that was waiting for us. They belong to the Khalkha Ministry, right? ”

The old shopkeeper nodded silently.

"Since they belong to the Khalkha Ministry, they probably won't wait for us to cross the river.

As you said, after the river is their land. They're probably going to want that face.

What's more, by tomorrow morning at the latest, they will find out that a spy is missing. Speaking of which, they will definitely attack us tomorrow. Zhang Yunyi made a conclusion with a helpless face.

This is a big problem. O Zarut tribe, one of the five Khalkha tribes, an absolute big tribe! I really didn't expect that fishing would catch a shark, what can I do?
