Chapter 123: Soldiers of the Same State

At nightfall, the dart team came to a stream and river, and the dart head checked the surrounding environment, and there was no too dense mountain forest for the thieves to ambush, so it was decided that the dart team would stay here for the night.

The dart team began to build a pot to cook rice, and their movements were extremely skillful. As the only private logistics industry in ancient times, the dart masters knew more than just escorting goods. Because of the inconvenience of transportation, everyone must have basic survival skills, such as cooking a pot of fragrant cooked food with only simple tools, such as the dart master will not wash his face before arriving home, not that he does not like to be clean, but the dirt and dust on his face can effectively block the wind, frost and dust, and prevent the delicate skin from cracking.

After most of the day's rest, Yang Yi basically had no major physical problems, and he could even help the old dart head build an earthen stove to live and cook.

Although Yang Yi only had the experience of picnics a few times in his previous life, he was enough to build an earthen stove with a thriving fire and good smoke exhaust.

"Look at Little Brother Sven, don't you want to have such a hand?"

"I used to study in my spare time, but I used to do it for fun, and now I want to survive."

The old dart head saw that Yang Yi seemed to have a lot of troubles, and comforted: "Look at us people, we go out for as little as three months, and more than half a year, sleeping in the open all day, and we are scared, aren't we all for the ugly mother-in-law and little cubs in the family to live a better life?" ”

Yang Yi smiled: "It seems that your old family is very prosperous!" ”

"It's true that a mother-in-law, two sons and a daughter are waiting to uncover the pot."

"It's not easy to read anyone's scriptures, but if you read them well, you will be very comfortable."

"What scripture is the little brother reading?"

"I'm an atheist, I don't believe in gods and Buddhas."

The old dart head sighed: "No one expects any Buddha master to really manifest his spirit, just a lot of hopes." ”

People are like this, they want to have a reason for everything, but if they can't find it, they just say that it is the will of God. Ordinary people are like this, those high-ranking officials and generals are like this, and even the high-ranking emperors like this.

In fact, Yang Yi envied them very much, and sometimes self-anesthesia was also a relief.

In the middle of the night, Yang Yi couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning on the straw mat. There are many reasons why he can't sleep, how is his mother, what is going on with his subordinates, what is happening to the thousands of mountain bandits in Cangyun Village, have the fierce Di people in Fanhua Valley retreated, and is the Yuntang Fairy being washed by the Pingchuan River like himself and not knowing where he is?

It seems that everything can create enough trouble for a person, but these messy things are now all pressed on Yang Yi, and he can't push it away.

Just after the time, Yang Yi, who was still extremely conscious, suddenly felt something strange, quickly got up, and listened carefully on the ground.

"There's cavalry coming!"

Yang Yi wanted to remind the people of the dart team, but when he raised his head, he found that the old dart head had already climbed up, and shouted: "Get up!" Someone's coming! ”

Yang Yi didn't know if the old dart head was the same as himself, and heard the movement of the horses running. I saw that everyone in the entire dart team quickly got up, pulled out their short knives, divided into groups of six or seven people, and stared around vigilantly around a dart cart.

The sound of horses galloping grew louder and louder, and soon at the end of the official road a large group of cavalry galloped towards the dart team.

The old dart head frowned, and there were only three kinds of cavalry: fierce people, horse thieves, and Daguang cavalry. It's better to meet a horse thief, and you will not be embarrassed to report your name, at most you will pay some tolls, and the most afraid is to meet the fierce people, those barbarians are not reasonable at all, because they can't understand the Central Plains dialect at all, and basically kill people when they see them.

Although this is already the same state close to Jingzhao Mansion, the fierce cavalry has always had an inscrutable mobility, interspersed in the rear of the enemy army, disrupting the opponent's deployment and logistics is the usual measure of the fierce Di people.

Under everyone's tense nerves, the cavalry gradually rushed in front of the dart team.

The old dart head saw the armor worn by the group of cavalry, and condensed: "Is it the Daguang cavalry?" Although his tone was obviously relieved, he remained vigilant.

Yang Yi looked through the moonlight, and there were about 200 cavalry in that team, and when a centurion came out on horseback, he shouted, "Who are you?" ”

Hearing this, the old dart head walked quickly to the front of the dart team, hugged his fists and said: "Back to the military master, we are the dart master of the North and South Dart Bureau of Diqing City, and the escort of the goods is passing through here to see that it is getting late, so I will rest here for a night." ”

The centurion ignored the old dart head, but tilted his head to look at the entire dart team, and saw that almost all of the dart team had swords in their hands, and the centurion's eyes were full of defense.

"There have been a lot of fierce spies invading the territory of Daguang recently, we need to check!"

After speaking, regardless of whether the old dart head agreed or not, the centurion waved his hand, and the more than 200 soldiers behind him quickly surrounded the dart team.

The old dart head saw that the centurion was staring at him without speaking, and then looked at the more than 200 cavalry around him with fierce eyes, so he had no choice but to compromise, turned around and said: "Put down your weapons and let the military masters check them!" ”

The dart masters hesitated, and could only put down the blades in their hands.

Now that Daguang and Didi are at war, it is normal for people to have a tight rear check, not to mention that the dart team and the caravan are the best and most common camouflage.

The old dart head put down the blade in his hand, walked to the centurion horse with a smile and said: "This military master, I don't know where you are the male soldiers, you are so lucky, and you are still patrolling at night." ”

The centurion glanced at the old dart head and said coldly: "We are from the same state guard camp." ”

The old dart head laughed when he heard it: "It turned out to be the army of the same state capital, and the head of our dart bureau is an old friend of Lord Lin, the governor of the same state." Saying that, the old dart head took out a bag of silver from his arms, held it in both hands and said with a smile: "A little heart on behalf of our host to honor the military masters, and please also ask the military masters to search a little lighter, there are a lot of porcelain goods in this goods, if you break the small ones back, it is not easy to explain..."

The centurion's face was cold, and he picked up the money bag held by the old dart head with a long knife, weighed it twice, and then put it into his arms, and said: "I know that it is not easy for you, but we are also impartial, if we let the fierce people pass, my brothers will have to lose their heads." ”

"Yes, yes, what the military master said is that you are also here to protect your family and defend the country."

The centurion nodded, stepped forward and asked in a loud voice, "Everyone get on their horses and keep on their way!" ”

"Yes!"

The Tongzhou soldiers quickly retreated, jumped on their horses and walked back behind the centurion in turn.

"Roar~~" Suddenly, a soldier accidentally threw a torch in his hand when he got on his horse, and the torch just landed next to the head of a mule and horse, and the mule and horse were frightened and spun in place.

The boxes on the mule cart behind the mule and horse were originally tightly tied, but they were all untied when the soldiers of the same state were ready to inspect them. At this time, the mules and horses fluttered wildly, and the boxes on the mule carts collapsed one by one.

When the bottom two boxes landed, everyone's eyes shook for a while, and everyone's eyes suddenly widened and fell silent.

But when the two ordinary wooden boxes fell to the ground and smashed open, they were all full of glittering gold!
