Cui Jiuming held a bag of jerky and ate it, the weather in the south was hot and humid, and the beef jerky specially obtained from Qiangdi became stronger after being damp by moisture. After wasting strength for a long time, his cheeks were about to bleed, and he still couldn't chew a piece.

Cui Jiuming spit out the beef that was still a piece of beef to the ground: "What a broken thing, it's only been a few days, and it's like this, I don't eat it!" ”

Hawking ran over with a smile: "Shopkeeper Cui doesn't eat it, just give it to me, right?" ”

"Take it if you like it, and you'll have it after eating!"

Hawking happily went out with his jerky in his hand. Cui Jiuming retracted his gaze and looked at Su Ren: "Why does Xiao Jinzi ask for things from me every day these days?" It's basically food! ”

Su Ren smiled: "There is a guy in the Minfu camp, I don't know what to think, I actually brought my daughter too, do you understand?" ”

"Oh......? I see! Hahahaha......"

The two made fun of Hawking's fall in love with the daughter of the man's camp for a long time. Su Ren suddenly said: "Prepare, let's go!" ”

"Understood! Tomorrow the grain and grass will arrive, and then we will set off together, eat all the way, and when the local food is also finished, I will free up mules and horses to help me transport things! ”

"Hehe, it looks like you've planned it well!"

"Of course, we are merchants, not soldiers, who doesn't want to come back alive and spend money?"

Su Ren nodded: "But we still have to plan for the worst, we must fight all the way this time, no one can say whether I can protect you!" ”

"Don't worry about us, the people who came with me have brought the best nurses in the family, I'm afraid that those Yue people won't come, and it's good to kill two Yue people to mix up some military merits, and it's not bad for the court to give some rewards and give me a knighthood."

"Just you?" Su Ren looked Cui Jiuming up and down, focusing on his big belly: "I suggest you don't go, transport you out, how many things do you have to transport?" ”

"I didn't plan to go, do you really think I'm stupid? Tomorrow the old king will arrive, he will go with you, and I will press the battle for you. ”

"There is no friend like you in the world, this time I have to go on an adventure, but you are a turtle with a shrunken head, which is not kind!"

"Hehehe!" Cui Jiuming smiled all over his face: "Are you afraid that they will be greedy for your share, you promised everyone, if you can't get back 100,000 yuan this time, we will lose a lot." ”

"It's not annoying, every time I see you, you just say this." Su Ren stood up: "I won't talk to you anymore, I'm angry!" ”

Cui Jiuming didn't think that Su Ren was really angry, he didn't move while sitting, even if he remembered it, he couldn't get up. Su Ren laughed and walked out: "Remember, don't make a mistake!" ”

Li Danghu's front army had crossed the Nanling Ridge three days ago and entered Yuedi, Su Ren didn't put anyone around Li Danghu, this is Li Danghu's war, then we have to give him absolute freedom, and we have to see if Li Danghu has the talent of a general. Just instructed Tiangang to protect him secretly, lest the two brothers of the Li family have an accident, and he couldn't explain to the emperor and Li Guang when he went back.

The guide was found by Li Danghu himself, and it is said that this person is quite familiar with Nanling, and every road and tree is clear. Li Danghu was very cautious, and the scouts spread out five miles away, marching between the mountains, and few scouts from such a distance did this.

The guide suddenly stopped and clasped his fist at Li Danghu: "Li Sima, there is a flat place in front of you that you can camp, and it will be difficult to go inside, but I am afraid that I will not be able to find a place to camp in the middle of the night." ”

Li Danghu thought for a while: "Let's go and see first, the army will stop and rest on the spot!" ”

Li Dang immediately shouted loudly: "Sima has an order, the army stops and rests on the spot!" ”

The soldiers, who had been running around for a day, immediately staggered to the ground. I knew that there might be poisonous snakes, scorpions, and the like under the leaves under my butt, but I couldn't help it. It's really sleepy, since entering Yuedi, the road has become more and more difficult to walk, and the weather has become hotter and hotter, and it is very stuffy.

Leaving Li Dang to lead the army, Li Danghu and the guide went to the camp in front. It's a good place, flat and comfortable, and there is a clear spring next to it, which is just right to solve the water problem. The surrounding woods are far away, as long as you do a good job of vigilance and protection, it is best to be a camp.

Li Danghu was very satisfied: "Very good, here it is!" Set up camp here tonight! By the way, what's the name of this place? ”

The guide hurriedly said: "The small place is nameless, and the locals call this place Crouching Tiger Ridge." ”

In front of Su Ren is a map of Yuedi, which is provided by the Huiji Taishou Mansion, with exquisite painting and beautiful lines, which can be regarded as a pair of exquisite strokes. Su Ren looked at it for a long time, except for finding Huiji, he searched for other places for a long time, and he couldn't match the number at all.

Han Shuo hurriedly said: "This place is Huiji, we are here to fold the ridge, if everything goes well Li Sima, he should be here tonight, Crouching Tiger Ridge camp, it is inconvenient to walk in this jungle, we have a lot of soldiers, and the last general thinks that we should also set off tomorrow, otherwise if Li Sima has a mistake, we will not be able to rescue it." ”

Su Ren nodded: "Yes, it's very troublesome to travel in the jungle, even if you are a Yue person, you can be tired and half dead after running for more than ten miles, let alone us!" You go and give the order, and we'll leave tomorrow! ”

"No!" Han said that he hugged his fists and saluted, waved his cloak behind him, and walked out of the tent.

Su Ren carefully studied the map, and Li Danghu's way forward was discussed by them. This road is difficult to walk, but it is also hidden, and you can also reach the Minyue Royal City in the shortest time. According to their plan, when Li Danghu suddenly appeared under the royal city, the Min Yue people would definitely be in chaos, and they might have a chance to attack the city.

Hawking and Shi Bao were fully armored, and as Su Ren's personal soldiers, the two led dozens of guards to defend around Su Ren's big tent. The killing did scare the county soldiers, but no one dared to guarantee that there would be no fish that slipped through the net, so Su Ren transferred Hawking and Shi Bao out of his tent, he just felt the beauty of being a high-ranking official, and he never wanted to die so soon.

The soldiers and horses did not move the grain and grass first. This time Su Ren broke this rule, he was in front of the soldiers and horses, and the logistics troops followed, Su Ren's logistics battalion did not have many people, except for some people, the rest were all merchants, these people brought a lot of things, and they could definitely ensure that the army entered the Minyue Royal City.

Cui Jiuming raised the curtain: "You decided to leave tomorrow?" ”

Su Ren nodded: "Is there anything wrong?" ”

"No, I'm just here to ask, to be sure, I still don't believe what Han said."

Su Ren smiled: "Don't be so suspicious, this person is not bad, from the moment he took refuge in me yesterday, he was already destined not to go back to the past." ”

Cui Jiuming nodded: "Yes, the idea of killing people was actually what he said, and it has nothing to do with you." ”

"Hahaha, you've learned to deceive yourself!" Su Ren quipped: "How is it?" Ready to get started? ”

"Okay, but I don't know anything."

"Oh?"

"Do you really want to follow Li Danghu down that dangerous road?" Cui Jiuming took two steps forward: "Although I don't know how you planned, but don't deceive me I don't know the terrain of Lingnan, that road is indeed the closest, but it is also the closest to the border of Xizhu, and if you are not careful, you will be discovered by Wuzhu, as far as Li Danghu's manpower is concerned, if it is surrounded by Wuzhu, it will be a vicious battle, even if we can come with rapid reinforcements, it is just a fight with Wuzhu, and the loss of Minyue will not be too big." ”

"What are we going to do with you?"

Cui Jiuming looked for it on the map, and his finger fell on a place: "This place is called Kidnapping Ditch, it is very hidden, I also heard what the merchants said, if you want to enter Yuedi unknowingly, it is good to go here." ”

"Isn't the kidnapping ditch harder to walk?"

Cui Jiuming sneered: "Don't look at me like that, did you plan to let Li Danghu attract Wuzhu for you?" You have to be really careful to be friends. ”

"What are these words? I'm just a friend? ”

"It's not a friend, it's you who put your friend to death!"

"Hahahaha......" Su Ren laughed: "Don't worry, Li Danghu and they are fine." ”

"Really?"

"Isn't it interesting to lie to you? By the way, is Lao Wang here? Send someone to urge him, and if he doesn't come tomorrow, you'll have to follow me personally. ”

Just after the ugly hour, the Zhiling military camp was full of people shouting and neighing, the steaming gruel had been boiled, and the fragrance of rice wafted in the air. The officers called out their men from each tent and lined up to receive the day's meal. After eating this meal, no one knows if the next meal will be able to eat in your mouth. The logistics battalion is very well prepared, rice porridge and dry food are as you like, as long as there is no leftovers, no one cares how much you eat.

There is still meat in the bowl, although there is only a little bit of it, which is much better than white porridge. Hawking brought a bowl to Su Ren and replaced Huang 13 to eat. Taking advantage of Su Ren's mealtime, Hawking leaned against the big tree behind him, boredly picked up the stone and threw it at the opposite tree, making a thumping sound.

Although Su Ren is a northerner, he likes to drink porridge very much, especially this kind of porridge with minced meat and salt, with a light salty taste, which is particularly comfortable to drink in the stomach. Su Ren drank two large bowls in a row, and wiped his mouth with his sleeve: "Oh, this meal is good, so full!" ”

Hawking muttered: "What's good, it's just a belly cheat, if each person has a pound of meat, that's good." ”

"Don't complain, go and see, they'll be ready to go when they're done eating!"

Hawking shook his head: "Han said, you have to wait for a while, it will be humid, and the fog in the forest is easy to poison, and you can't enter until the sun completely rises." ”

Su Ren thought for a while: "That's right! Was it my negligence, can those medical officers brought by Lao Cui settle down? ”

"Okay, it's all in the back camp, and dozens of carts have been prepared, if there are wounded people who can be transported."

"Tell Lao Cui, don't just worry about grabbing things, the premise of taking him there is to help me win this battle first."

The army marched out, with the soldiers in front and the logistics battalion behind, closely following the pace of the army. The mood of the businessmen was high, looking forward to the Lingnan that Su Ren had depicted for them that was full of gold and full of opportunities to make a fortune. Lao Wang still couldn't catch up with the departure, and Cui Jiuming had no choice but to leave someone to contact him, dragging his fat body and climbing up the horse prepared for him.
