Chapter 1023 (Page 1/1)

When Shi Yuan and Qin Hongmian came back, Qiao Cannon had already formed the team. It's just that the fatigue on everyone's faces is still obvious, standing crooked, hanging their heads, and looking a little lifeless in the scorching weather.

"Alas~" Seeing this situation, Shi Yuan didn't make a sound, just sighed softly. The hot weather coupled with the harassment of ants and insects in the forest made him a little irritable, let alone these people?

"Brother Qiao, Brother Qiao!" Shi Yuan, who didn't make a sound, walked to Qiao Cannon, who was napping against the trunk of the tree, and then shouted twice.

Qiao Cannon didn't know what he was dreaming, and the corners of his mouth still had a hara, and after being shaken twice by Shi Yuan, he suddenly opened his eyes, "Shi, Brother Shi?" You ......"

Qiao Cannon, who was a little confused, was halfway through his words, and then he suddenly reacted, and a spirit sat up, "Shi, General Shi, that ......" Qiao Cannon wanted to find a reason for his napping behavior, but after pursing his mouth for a long time, he just didn't find a suitable excuse.

"How much do you have in stock?" However, Shi Yuan directly asked about these things.

Qiao Cannon was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then hurriedly replied: "The dry food can last for seven or eight days, but because the weather is too hot, there is not much water left." ”

Shi Yuan nodded after hearing this, "I just found a hiding place on the mountain with the Cotton Tree Girl, don't worry about the water source, you let the brothers rest again, and we will go up the mountain later." After speaking, he paused, and then asked, "Is there any news between the Eagle Squad and Liuli?" ”

Hearing Shi Yuan ask about the matter, Qiao Cannon also had a straight face, "The Eagle Squad has already returned, and I asked them to patrol the mountain pass." As for Miss Liuli, there is no news yet. ”

"How's it going?"

"I didn't see the Beiqing army." Qiao Cannon opened his mouth and replied: "According to the investigation of the Eagle Squad, there is no trace of the Beiqing army on the riverside. ”

"Oh? This second prince can really calm down! Shi Yuan listened, frowned slightly, and muttered to himself. Then he turned his head to look at Qin Hongmian again, "What do you think of this matter, Girl Cotton Tree?" ”

After hearing Qiao Cannon's words, the shock in Qin Hongmian's heart was actually no less than Shi Yuan's. Now that he heard Shi Yuan ask himself, he frowned and replied: "It stands to reason that Beiqing can't just send 10,000 people, could it be that they went ashore overnight last night?" General Shi, the people you sent didn't find out? ”

"It's a possibility!" Shi Yuan nodded after hearing this, but then changed his words again: "But Beiqing has the initiative, there is no need to rush at all, there is no reason to cross the river overnight, it is completely harmful and unprofitable for them to do so." ”

"Then according to what General Shi said, Beiqing has another purpose?"

"I don't dare say anything else, but at least in the light of the current situation...... Beiqing must have gone wrong. Cotton Girl, do you think, is there any movement in the Shuzhong Army? ”

"General Shi, do you mean...... The Shu army may have chosen to march over the mountains? Qin Hongmian quickly understood the meaning of Shi Yuan's words.

"Cotton Girl, you also said before, you brought people from the mountain road, right?"

"That's true. Because there are often businessmen walking, the mountain road from Jiangnan to Shudi is now quite smooth. But even so, there are nearly 70,000 people in the Shuzhong army, and if they want to take the mountain road, they are afraid that it will take more than a month...... This is of no use to the whole situation at all. ”

"What the Cotton Girl said is very true. But is there such a possibility - the Shu army has already hidden in the mountains, just like us? Shi Yuan put forward an extremely bold hypothesis.

Qin Hongmian was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "Impossible!" I also brought people from the mountain road, but I didn't find their whereabouts at all. That's more than 60,000 people! ”

Qin Hongmian said very surely, because Shi Yuan's conjecture was a little too bold, so bold that people couldn't believe it at all. Besides, she is from Shudi, and judging from what she has seen, this is complete nonsense.

However, Shi Yuan obviously had a basis, and after Qin Hongmian said it, he asked: "Girl Hongmian, let me ask you, there is only one trade route in this mountain?" ”

"This ...... There are two big mountains in Dawu and Taihang, and the road conditions in the mountains are complicated. Since ancient times, there have been merchants from Shu and Jiangnan, and there is not only one road in the mountains. After Qin Hongmian finished speaking, he added: "But even if it is a coincidence, there are more than 60,000 people, and there is always movement, right?" ”

"Really? That cotton girl, you haven't seen Shu Zhongjun, have you seen anyone else? Shi Yuan then asked.

Let Shi Yuan mention this, Qin Hongmian seemed to remember something. After thinking for a long time, he shook his head at Shi Yuan, "Shi Gongzi said this, I also remembered: we really didn't see a single figure when we came. But now it's a war, and there are no merchants to pass, which should be normal, right? ”

"Don't say that! As a businessman, the more dangerous it is, the greater the business opportunity. It is precisely because it is wartime that there are many people who take risks! In Yangzhou City, I did not restrict traffic before, and people went out of the city every day...... Cotton Girl, where do you think these people might go? ”

When it came to this, Qin Hongmian, who originally felt that Shi Yuan was completely nonsense, finally began to waver, "There is no boat to cross the river, then there is only a mountain road to go." General Shi, do you mean...... All these people went to Shudi? ”

Shi Yuan's expression was straight, and he shook his head at Qin Hongmian, "They really want to go to Shudi, but I'm afraid that they will disappear into the mountains before they reach Shudi!" Otherwise, why didn't you see a single figure? ”

"Yes...... Why didn't anything happen when we came? Qin Hongmian's heart was shaken, but she still felt a little incredible.

"It's just a conjecture, you don't have to embarrass me, Cotton Girl, right?" Shi Yuan obviously didn't know the reason, and after finishing speaking, he continued: "What's more, Cotton Girl you said before, this Shuzhong army was suppressed by the emperors of Daqing, and there were no more than 10,000 people. That Ji Wuyan followed the split of Daqing, and then replenished the military power in his hands. If you support Beiqing this time...... Cotton Girl Girl, how many people do you think this second prince of Beiqing will let him bring? ”

Qin Hongmian didn't answer, and Shi Yuan continued: "It depends on the situation of the Beiqing army!" If it really comes to a critical juncture, the second prince of Beiqing must also ignore the forces in Ji Wuyan's hands, right? So this Ji Wuyan is only afraid that he wants to hide the soldiers, come to the praying mantis to pounce on Zen, and the yellow finch is behind! ”
