Yang Yi saw that the captain surnamed Meng didn't seem to have too much malice, so he stepped forward, took out a bag of broken silver from his sleeve, stuffed it into the captain's hand without a trace, and said with a smile: "General Meng, does you know why Lord Dou is summoned so late?" I can explain a few words to my family, so that they will not be worried. ”

The lieutenant paused, thought for a while, took the silver, and said, "Gongzi Jia borrowed a step to speak." ”

The lieutenant carefully thought about Dou Xu's instructions, Dou Xu only said that he urgently summoned Yang Yi and did not make too much trouble, and did not say that he would not tell Yang Yi what it was to go, and he had heard that this son surnamed A seemed to have some teacher-learning relationship with Master Sima Dou.

The two came to the side, and the captain surnamed Meng said in a low voice: "Gongzi Jia, the Assassin Mansion will send troops to recruit and suppress the bandits tonight, and Lord Dou has ordered you to go with the army." ”

Yang Yi was shocked: "Tonight? In such a hurry? ”

Captain Meng nodded and said, "Son, let's go with me quickly, and you don't need to pack up your things, the army has all the supplies." ”

Yang Yi thought for a while and said, "I wonder if I can bring a few family members with me?" ”

Seeing that Captain Meng hesitated, Yang Yi smiled helplessly: "General, you can also see it, I am a son, I can eat, drink and have fun, and it is estimated that I can take my life just by walking into the mountains to suppress bandits, if I don't bring some family guards to protect and take care of me, I'm afraid I will really die in that big mountain." ”

Captain Meng laughed, he has seen a lot of sons like Yang Yi, not to mention letting them go to the battlefield, it is a problem to take two more steps, and said with a smile at the moment: "I can't be the master of this matter, so I will call the family general to go with us, and when I get to the Assassin Mansion, I will go to help you ask Lord Dou, and then it will be said that it is your family's general to escort, and it is normal to take the family general to the battlefield." ”

Yang Yi was overjoyed when he heard this, hugged his fist at Captain Meng, turned around and hurriedly ordered Monkey Jian'er and the others to seize the time to pack up their things and go with him.

Yang Yi came to Su Fan's side with a worried face, and said: "Uncle Su doesn't need to worry, there should be no danger for me to go with the army, I won't go to say goodbye to the old man when the time is urgent, and my uncle will ask me about the guilt." In addition, after I leave, remember to close the door inside the house, don't have too many entanglements with the outside, and make a decision on everything when I come back. ”

Su Fan nodded and said worriedly: "Yi... Bao Yu's nephew should also be careful all the way, Su Mansion is waiting for you to return as soon as possible. ”

Yang Yi nodded and stopped talking, just as the monkey ten or so generals had simply packed up, Yang Yi waved his hand, and everyone followed Captain Meng and the others out of the Su Mansion and went straight to the Assassin's Mansion.

The group soon came to the outside of the Thorn Mansion, and Yang Yi was surprised to find that the Thorn Mansion was brightly lit, and there were constantly people coming in and out, and it seemed that the army would definitely set off tonight.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the Assassin's Mansion, Yang Yi happened to see Dou Xu coming out of it, only to see that the old man was actually equipped with a sword at his waist, and it seemed that he was going to lead the troops in person. Yang Yi's guess about Su Zhongzhai became more and more certain in his heart, otherwise Dou Xu, the second-in-command of the state capital, how could he do such a dangerous and fortunate thing as going into the mountains to suppress bandits.

Dou Xu didn't see Yang Yi, but after listening to Captain Meng explain Yang Yi's request, Dou Xu glanced at Yang Yi who was standing in the distance, and Yang Yi hurriedly bowed his hand.

Dou Xu nodded and didn't speak again, stepped on a short Shu horse, and went straight out of the city.

Captain Meng saw Dou Xu leave, and then he came to tell Yang Yi that Dou Xu agreed to his request and ordered him to set off immediately, the army had been assembled outside the city, and it would be launched in half an hour.

Yang Yi thanked him repeatedly, and stuffed another ingot of silver to Captain Meng, who was happy, laughed, and proudly told Yang Yi and others that if they had any difficulties in the army, they could find him at any time, and he would definitely try his best to help.

Yang Yi thanked him again and again, and then ordered everyone to follow Captain Meng to the outside of the city.

This time, the Chengzhou Mansion dispatched 7,000 troops, although Hou Jian'er and others, who had already seen the big scene, scoffed at the strength and combat power of the Chengzhou Mansion, but Yang Yi knew that the strength of 7,000 people was already the largest force that the Chengzhou Mansion could dispatch, and such a force was enough to destroy any bandit force.

What made Yang Yi more depressed was that the Zhongshan Road in Shu was really difficult, so there were basically no horses in the army, and the people who pulled the supplies and goods were some mules and strong short-legged Shu horses. Therefore, Yang Yi didn't want to have special treatment, the thought of drilling in the dense and humid forest for a long time made Yang Yi's heart extremely broken.

After arriving at the military field outside the city, the army did not have a heroic declaration of leaving the army, and after Dou Xu's order, they rushed to the north of the Shu Road.

The people in the army thought that Dou Xu was in such a hurry to paralyze the bandits on the Shu Road, maybe only Yang Yi knew that Dou Xu wanted to paralyze and conceal the various forces in the city, and he didn't want people to know what he was looking for when he entered the mountain.

The army marched all night, and before dawn they left the official road and went into the dense mountains.

Yang Yi and the others walked a little further behind the Chinese army, and it is said that Dou Xu specially ordered them. Yang Yi drilled through the forest when he was in the north, and it was not so difficult to walk at this time, and it was also thanks to the lack of rain in Shu during this time, the mountain road was not muddy, and it was easier to walk, and everyone was caught in the army and was not afraid of any beast attack, so he lowered his head and drilled in the forest for three days and three nights.

Yang Yi and the others have been living a very comfortable life these days, silver is a good thing, it can make ghosts grind, and naturally they can also get some privileges. With Captain Meng's care, Yang Yi and others were able to open a small stove in the army, what to eat? There are Hu Shou and a few hunters who grew up in the mountains, are you still afraid that you won't have anything to eat?

When others gnawed dry food and drank raw water, Yang Yi set up a smokeless stove on the side, stewed a pot of game soup, and ate happily.

Even Captain Meng regarded this place as his own canteen, and those who had nothing to do came to eat and rub the cards. Because Yang Yi and the others were not in the army, as long as they didn't act too much, he would turn a blind eye.

The days of the march were boring, and I did not encounter any large-scale bandits in the past few days, but I met several small bandits of dozens of people, and they were taken away by the army without any pressure.

It is worth mentioning that every time the bandits were cleared, the army would try their best to capture the leader of the other party alive, and take him to see Dou Xu, and then it didn't take long for him to be dragged out and cut down, and it was obvious that Dou Xu didn't ask for any valuable news.

Dou Xu and Yang Yi actually understood that the mysterious bandits dared to commit such a big case, and they were all masked, it must be difficult to catch.

In this way, the army stopped and stopped until noon on the fifth day, when a group of several hundred bandits suddenly appeared on the mountain road ahead, blocking the middle of the road where the army was advancing, and it seemed that they had been waiting there for a long time.

Yang Yizheng wondered to himself, did this bandit eat the guts of a bear's heart and a leopard, and dared to take the initiative to intercept such a huge army, so suddenly Captain Meng rushed to the Chinese army and told Yang Yi Douxu to let him go to the front.

Yang Yi was stunned, this was the first time Dou Xu had summoned him since entering the mountain, and immediately signaled that Monkey Jian'er and the others who wanted to follow him don't worry, so he quickly followed Captain Meng to the front army.

When he came to the front army, Yang Yi saw that Dou Xu was riding a horse at the front of the team at this time, and a hundred steps away in front of him stood a group of bandits of several hundred people, confronting the official army from afar.

"My lord, Gongzi Jia is here." Captain Meng took Yang Yi to Dou Xu's back.

Dou Xu glanced sideways at Yang Yi, and Yang Yi hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "Student to meet Master Dou." ”

Dou Xu nodded in response, and said to Yang Yining: "You stand beside me." ”

Yang Yi looked at the bandit in front of him, only hesitated, and walked up.

Dou Xu, who was sitting on the horse, bowed down slightly and whispered to Yang Yi: "Later, you can see more clearly, whether that person is the murderous bandit in the post station." ”

Yang Yi paused, nodded and said, "Remember, students." But I wondered in my heart, how could I observe it from such a distance?

At this time, a few people suddenly appeared among the bandits on the opposite side, and slowly walked towards the army, but the army did not make any changes, Yang Yiyu glanced at Dou Xu, and found that he was not panicked.

Soon, the bandits walked in front of Dou Xu, and the first one was thick eyebrows and big eyes, burly and majestic, with a blue scar on his eyebrows, which looked a little terrifying, as if he had an extra eye.

I saw that the man came to Dou Xu's approach, and bowed down very respectfully: "Five Immortal Zhai Qingmu Eagle, I have seen Lord Dou Sima!" ”

Dou Xu's head did not move, he only glanced down at the strong man called the blue-eyed eagle, and said, "I haven't seen the big boss for a long time." ”

Qingmu Ying smiled: "The last time I saw the adult in Xiaxia, it was on the occasion of the adult's fiftieth birthday, and I went down to send a congratulatory gift to the adult. ”

Dou Xu nodded, as if he didn't want to talk more about this with Qingmu Ying, and said coldly: "How about the matter I asked you to help the old man investigate?" ”

Qingmu Ying paused for a moment, and was a little embarrassed: "My lord, forgive my sins, I have inquired many times, but no one knows which mountain those ignorant thieves are." ”

Qingmu Ying glanced at Dou Xu's face when he spoke, and hurriedly said: "That group of people acted extremely secretly, and there were almost no useful traces left after slaughtering sheep, but on this Shu Road, there is no one that I Qingmu Eagle can't find, as long as the adults give me some time, I will ......"

"How long will it take you?" Before Qingmu Ying finished speaking, Dou Xu asked.

"This..."Qingmu Ying was a little stunned, as if he didn't expect Dou Xu to be so direct, he thought about it and gritted his teeth and said, "One month!" ”

Dou Xu didn't even look at him, and said coldly: "Ten days, if you can't find the murderer within ten days, don't blame the official for eliminating harm for the people, the first one is your Five Immortal Village!" ”

Qingmu Ying's face was in a cold sweat, of course he knew what Dou Xu meant by eliminating harm for the people, if he couldn't find the murderer in ten days, Dou Xu would kill in this Shu Dao Mountain.
