Chapter 22

The cold wind rises, and the cold comes to the bones.

Jiang Twelve slowly picked up the black and white chess pieces on the chessboard into the box long after Ge Tianyuan left.

The facts once again proved to him that Ge Tiankite was an opponent that he could not parry. He couldn't even figure out why these villagers outside were treated like this, and he wasn't sure what the purpose of such information was when Ge Tianyuan told him.

Jiang Twelve's first reaction was that she hoped to convey this message to the imperial court through herself. But the woman in front of him was Ge Tianyuan, and Jiang Twelve didn't know if he should find a way to convey the truth of the matter.

He also had to think about it, and he would worry about whether Ge Tianyuan would take the opportunity to dig out all the forces of the embroidered messenger outside the plug. I'm also afraid that if things really go according to this situation if it is not passed on, he will have a nervous breakdown because of guilt.

"Will he pass it back?"

On the way, the old man, who had been a groom for Ge Tiankite for many years, was full of sadness. Now the Huns are not having a good time, they have a lot of internal contradictions.

War, in many cases, is also the best way to divert contradictions.

"Within three days, the news will definitely get out."

Ge Tianyuan was very confident, and on the way to chatting with Jiang Twelve, she had basically figured out this person's character. Resourceful and indecisive, such a person will only pass on what he knows and let him make decisions. He can't afford it, and he can't carry it.

"Do you want to follow the vine?"

There was a dangerous glint in the old coachman's eyes.

"Don't disturb him, and don't touch the lines. Knowing their existence, there will be more places to use in the future. Two countries compete with each other, and people are not pawns. ”

Ge Tianyuan looked at the sky leisurely, his eyes were empty.

The old coachman was silent when he heard this, yes, people are ever-changing. It's not all black, it's not all white. Who can really see through people's hearts? Even King Zuoxian, who has the title of the first wise man, can't do it, right?

Of course, she can't see through everything.

For example, Lu Zhao, who had already entered the Yumen Pass, had already been given the opportunity to go out on a mission at this time. And it was much easier to get than he thought. At the beginning, Lu Zhao was worried that Chu Nanxun would take the opportunity to hinder him and not give him a chance to make meritorious contributions. The arrangement of the team is like a mountain of military orders in the barracks, and it is impossible to disobey!

But Chu Nanxun didn't seem to have happened at all, and he arranged Lu Zhao and Yu Zhan on his first mission. Scout squads work in groups of three, but all three are not allowed to be new recruits. So there is one more team leader in this group, Chen Er.

At the beginning, Chen Er desperately resigned, how could he be qualified to be the leader of these two teams with his little ability. Although it is true that these two are recruits, the skills of the people are there. In the barracks on the edge of the battlefield, you don't have to look at seniority. If you don't have the ability, you will die quickly, what's the use of seniority?

It's just that in this environment, there are still qualifications, and their skills are often not ordinary. Either the ability to fight, or the ability to save lives. For a soldier, these two skills are equally important, regardless of whether they are strong or weak.

Meritorious service, that is also on the premise of saving life.

But Lu Zhao and Yu Zhan worked together to put Zhao Er on the shelf, saying that he had to do it, and others couldn't do it. And ensure that the two people must obey the command, so that the west will never go east. Zhao Er reluctantly accepted this errand, but he always felt strange in his heart.

Yu Zhan, who received the inspection accessories according to the rules and regulations, went into the camp tent to find Lu Zhao, and asked in a low voice: "Brother Zhao, let's go." Why don't you say hello to Miss Shi and Miss Zhao? ”

"It's not that you won't come back, and what will you say to the two girls about such a thing?" Lu Zhao shook his head.

"It's dangerous, if something happens, no one knows where we're going." Yu Zhan's voice was a little sad, and as he said, once he went to the grassland. That is, life and death are fate, and wealth is in the sky. No matter how powerful a person is, he can't guarantee that there will be no accidents in such an empty environment. Even if you have the ability, in the endless grassland, it is a matter of an arrow.

In terms of kung fu on horseback, the Han people naturally lagged behind the nomads.

"If they live, they will see it. If they die, what difference does it make if they can see it or not? It's just to increase sadness, a manly man, don't put your mind here, it's meaningless. Lu Zhao patted Yu Zhan on the shoulder, he was not against his younger brother liking a girl. It's just that at the moment, the two brothers don't have the time and soil to fall in love.

Yu Zhan nodded: "I know, this is not the type I like." I will go north with my sword and cut off her head. ”

Lu Zhao narrowed his eyes and didn't ask more.

"Hey, why are you still wearing this longbow? The one issued by the barracks is much finer than the one you made yourself. Yu Zhan suddenly discovered that the longbow prepared by Lu Zhao was not the one issued in the barracks. When they first made the longbow, because of the tools, it was really a lot worse than the ones issued in the barracks. The only place that may be better is the hundred-year-old tree used for the bow, which has a hard texture.

Lu Zhao shook his head and said with a smile: "What is fine or not, this bow is easy to use, and if you have feelings, you don't want to change it." People have feelings. ”

"Yes, anyway, Brother Zhao, your archery skills are so good, you can use any bow." Yu Zhan raised the crossbow in his hand and said with a smile: "But this thing is very useful to me, although the range is not as good as the longbow, and the power is also much worse." But it's easy to operate, and it's much easier to kill. ”

Lu Zhao smiled when he heard this, nodded and said, "The killing weapon that can be mastered in a few days is really powerful." ”

He had seen a crossbow, the time the Huns dragged his father to death. The man in the lead was holding a black odd-shaped object in his hand, and later Uncle Headhunter told him that it was called a crossbow. And told him how to use the crossbow and how to fight it.

Uncle Headhunter was dismissive of crossbows, saying that a master archer could hunt crossbowmen in a fair environment. Because crossbow bolts are very troublesome and slow, the time required is enough for an archery master to shoot them many times. He estimated that with Lu Zhao's ability and the kung fu of loading crossbow arrows, he could achieve nine arrows in a row.

"yes, I think so too." Yu Zhanmei put the crossbow arrow away, raised the long knife and beckoned: "Let's go, we will leave later." Speaking of the landform of the grassland, in fact, there are people who are more familiar with it than us. ”

Lu Zhao nodded and didn't answer. He walked out behind Yu Zhan, and when he stood outside the tent, he turned his head and glanced against the light at the hillside behind him.
