Chapter 17: Yulin (II)

However, Gao Wenyuan and Yulin ignored it, and it didn't matter if they were tempted or not at this time.

In fact, although it is nominally up to Yulin to decide whether Yulin will go to the Liu family or not, in fact, Yulin has no other choice. After all, he can't come up with a corresponding reason for refusal, and the excuse for no reason will obviously arouse the suspicion of the Yan Kingdom, and the origins of the two will probably be investigated.

At the beginning, because the destination of the two was in the already chaotic barracks, and unless the barracks was too attention-grabbing, no one would suspect or investigate their origins or anything, so their identities did not make too much trouble to cover up at first. Once scrutinized, the suspicions may become obvious. Because of this, Yulin did not dare to refuse the invitation of the new state government for the time being, and there was no reason to put it on the table.

Although I am afraid that the issue of origin will still be studied after I agree, the strength and efficiency will be greatly reduced. Taking advantage of this time, Gao Wenyuan can contact his own family, and with the help of the Gao family's strength, he can smooth out and improve their life experience a little. Or see if you can "rob" the two of them in order to fundamentally solve the problem of identity.

It didn't take too long for the two to understand the fact that they had to agree to Liu Feiyue. In fact, on the way back to the barracks, Gao Wenyuan and Yulin reached an agreement. may also be regarded as a kind of recklessness of young people, Gao Wenyuan is a little impatient to go to Liu's house for "investigation".

When they arrived at the veterans' barracks, they were surprised to find that the veterans who had just opened the city to attack the enemy were all depressed and disgraced. Some of them were dealing with their own burns, swearing and swearing. Seeing this, Yulin hurriedly looked at Gao Wenyuan with admiration, "Looking at the current situation, I'm afraid it's really an ambush of a barbarian, and Gongzi is really a god." ”

"It's quite smooth, who did you learn from?"

Yulin scratched his head in embarrassment, "Uh...... But Childe obviously saw it right, and there wasn't anything too wrong with the villain saying that, right? ”

"First, I didn't say it had to be an ambush, in the end, I just said it was a possibility; Second, looking at the injuries of the soldiers here, I am afraid that this fire is really not an ambush, if it is really an ambush, that group of soldiers will not be able to come back so much. If the barbarians deliberately ambushed, it would be good for them to come back. The current situation can only be that when the fire is real, and when chaos is a fact, the Yan army still loses the battle. ”

“…… Then they're a bit of a waste. ”

"No, if you take our Zhaoguo's army here, the situation will only be worse than theirs, there is no overwhelming combat superiority, how do you think the barbarians have become a huge threat to the north with such a small population?"

"But we Central Plains people at least have the art of war, and those battle formations that Gongzi used to study every day are impossible for their barbarians."

Gao Wenyuan shook his head, "The art of war, in the final analysis, is just a hint written down in the war book. Since it's a hint, there is a way to bypass the hint and go straight to the answer. Before the art of war existed, these generals were like that. Later generations of soldiers summarized these and became the necessary military books for us to use soldiers today. But the book of war is not the art of war, and there can be the art of war without the book of war.

Moreover, the scope of application of the art of war in the book of war is extremely special...... Well, forget it, you just need to know that even if you are a barbarian, you don't have paperwork, and there will be ways to use troops based on experience. ”

After that, Gao Wenyuan patted Yulin's shoulder, "'Soldiers, treacherous ways', this is the only thing in the book of soldiers that can be called the truth." Okay, Yulin, you can go back to the camp and sleep first, don't think too much, after all, we don't know what will wait for us tomorrow. ”

……

The next day the weather was good, and although the temperature was getting cooler, the sky was clean and the sun was good.

The blackened scorched earth outside the city exaggerated its presence, so much so that the barbarian tents that had moved their positions to avoid the fire seemed to be deliberately making way for the scorched earth. Of course, the Yan army would not know what caused the fire until the end, but they knew very well that they had lost the battle under the advantage of the situation, so the atmosphere in the Yan camp in the morning was not very good.

Guo Rongliang, as always, supervised the morning cooking in front of the new barracks. Of course, there are no jade plate delicacies in the army, but the Yulin couple are quite accustomed to eating. After all, they had also made a lot of preparations before coming to Yan, and many of them were improvements to the habits of the nobility.

But when Yulin was enjoying the few comfortable times in the army, a man in official uniform slowly walked in from outside the new barracks. The man looked strong, but he didn't look like a martial artist. The square steps under his feet seem to bring a lot of majesty, although there is no feeling of dragon and tiger walking, but it is by no means the feeling of unscrupulous and corrupt officials piled up with wine and meat.

Yulin must be eye-catching, it is Liu Feiyue, the capital of Xinzhou, who they had a relationship with last night. But last night, Xu was shrouded in darkness, and Yulin didn't see his majestic side last night, so he. did not match this person with Liu Feiyue for the first time.

Guo Rongliang, who was on the side, was just about to step forward to salute, when he saw Liu Feiyue waving his hand at him, signaling that there was no need to be polite, and then he walked straight towards Gao Yu and the others. When he got closer, he arched his hand at Yulin:

"Rong Benguan is bothered. After a night, I wonder if my brother has any reply to the official's proposal last night? ”

Probably he didn't sit down because he wanted to prevent his official uniform from being dusty, and because of this, Yulin Gao Wenyuan didn't care about being lazy and hurriedly got up.

"The adult is so invited, and the small naturally has no reason to refuse." Yulin replied.

"It's best to be so natural, then please hurry up and pack up and go with me, the carriage is already outside the camp." After that, Liu Feiyue was about to turn around and leave.

"My lord, stay here, I'll go with the Yulin brothers, probably no problem." Gao Wenyuan stopped Liu Feiyue.

Although these words make a recruit to the state capital, it is really a little big or small, but now is not the time to think about this. At present, Gao Wenyuan's idea is that once Yulin leaves Xinzhou, he will first lose one care, his security will be greatly reduced, and he will lose his original intention of increasing his experience in the first place. Moreover, regarding the matter related to the Liu family in Yulin, Gao Wenyuan must find ways to inform the Gao family in a timely manner, and "timely" is not something that can be done by staying in the army.

Liu Feiyue was slightly puzzled when she heard this, but finally nodded, "Yes, it doesn't matter." ”

"Master Xie."

……

After cleaning up, Yulin and Gao Wenyuan came to the carriage waiting outside the camp, and Liu Feiyue was already waiting in the car. Yu Lin and Gao Wenyuan hurriedly carried their burdens and got into the carriage. The carriage was quite ordinary, not comfortable, and in some places even shabby, not like the state capital's own carriage, probably hired.

There was no one in the carriage who spoke, and each had his own thoughts. It wasn't until the carriage left the city and the road began to bump a little that Gao Wenyuan remembered a question, "Is it okay for the state capital to leave his jurisdiction like this?" ”

This question pulled Liu Feiyue back from her thoughts, "Actually, it doesn't matter, most of the things in Xinzhou are managed by the military, after all, it is a legacy of the original customs system, and I am afraid it will not be changed in a short time." As for financial matters, nominally they must go through the hands of the state, but NSW is tax-free, and there are not many occasional levies, and the state government rarely intervenes. ”

"Tax-free? Wouldn't that be the case that a considerable number of people would move into NSW? ”

"How can there be such a good thing, tax exemption is just exempt from paying to the imperial court, don't forget that Xinzhou is the world of the military, and their army also has to levy money and grain, even so, it is not too much, after all, it is not stable here, no matter how you say that it takes a little courage to live here, and if you collect too much, you are afraid that they will move away."

"So independent? Isn't that the danger of rebellion in the Northern Army is quite large? The imperial court didn't think about curbing it? ”

These words made Liu Feiyue a little alert. With a suspicious look, he glanced at Gao Wenyuan. Gao Wenyuan realized that he was a little speechless, after all, what he said just now didn't seem like a little soldier could say.

"Ah, probably." Liu Feiyue fooled the past. Gao Wenyuan didn't ask again.

After a while, Liu Feiyue suddenly began to ask Yulin, "Where has the ninth brother lived in the past few years?" ”

"Ah, Lord Hui—" Yu Lin just wanted to tell the state government what he had made up last night, but was suddenly interrupted.

"I said don't call me an adult, call me second brother." Liu Feiyue looked tired of Yulin's tone.

"Uh, second brother...... That's small...... Uh, no, I grew up in Yulin, my brother's house, and his parents picked me up and raised me to such an age, but last year the two elders passed away, and it was difficult for our brothers and sons to make a living, so they came to the north to join the army. ”

Liu Feiyue listened and nodded. "That's it, since the ninth brother will be the Liu family in the future, it's better to have the surname Liu, of course I don't force you, if you really miss the two old men, I won't force you, but I don't know how the family will react."

"Yulin, I'm just a flat-headed commoner, how dare I be a ......"

"Why is the ninth brother still so arrogant, let's do it, since you were called Yulin before, and you are the ninth brother of the same generation as me, why don't you call it Liu Feiyu.

It is not impossible to carve elm, so it is a good name. Ninth brother, what do you think? ”

"Xie Da...... Second brother. Yulin bowed respectfully, though it was a bit difficult in a low, bumpy carriage.

Gao Wenyuan on the side leaned back, squinted his eyes and carefully looked at the state capital in front of him. This is a sign of his suspicion, and it is obvious that Liu Feiyue, who has chosen his peers so casually, is enough to arouse his suspicions.

However, Yulin, or Liu Feiyu, didn't get too entangled in this matter.
