It is common for the guards to run 300 miles a day and night, but when the army sets out, 100 miles a day is the limit.

Hou Junji and Wei Chigong are both veterans, and they dare not be sloppy in this regard. Even if the two thousand soldiers were all cavalry with one man and two horses, they didn't dare to strain their physical strength too much.

Due to the influence of the routed soldiers and nomads along the way, they had to camp and rest after marching at most sixty or seventy miles a day. It is also necessary to send troops from time to time to help restore people's livelihood and clean up order in the local area. After all, Luo Yi's baby looks not far away, who dares to take the people's affairs to heart, you think about the baby's appearance before speaking.

Fortunately, two days later, they received a report from Cheng Yanjin and Niu Jinda, saying that His Royal Highness the King of Chu had arrived in the left guard army of Longyou, joined them, and was now resting in their camp.

Only then did the second general put his mind at ease, and he was also in the mood to take the opportunity to collect the defeated troops along the way, and by the way, he practiced a military training. It is necessary to take this opportunity to completely control this Jingzhou army in the hands of the imperial court.

Six days later, the second general met with Cheng and Niu in the military camp outside Yuanzhou, and after a few words of greeting, he did not find the king of Chu.

When I asked, I found out that just earlier, there was a report from Tanmalay, saying that Jieli might be in Shuozhou. Ignoring the dissuasion of Cheng and Niu Erjun, the master rode the tiger and went to Shuozhou.

"Wait!" Wei Chigong was a little confused: "What to ride?" ”

Cheng Yanjin looked proud: "You heard it right, the tiger you ride!" With a whistle, the soldiers took out a pair of fluffy tiger cubs and were carefully held into his arms.

"See? His Royal Highness came here a few days ago, and heard that there was a tiger infested on this mountain, so he personally went up the mountain and caught the big tiger and rode it himself, and let me help raise the two small ones. His Royal Highness confessed that he could only feed dog milk and mare's milk, but if he couldn't do it, he would cook white porridge and try not to feed milk and goat's milk. Haha, call Big Mi, Little Mi, look at this coat color, look at this tooth mouth, it is designated as a pair of good cats! ”

Cheng Yanjin's face was full of brainless expressions: "A tiger, a foot long, in front of His Highness, is better than a cat." His Royal Highness named it Xiao Liang, and rode a tigress to go shopping, which had to be Dora style. Do you know what the wind is? His Highness said, hehe...... By the way, you got the chasing wind from Yuanji, Your Highness asked me to return it to you, you go back and take it away, you eat too much, you can't afford to raise ......"

Wei Chigong's face is dark, isn't it just a little light, you are arrogant! I also dislike chasing the wind and eating too much, and I don't know who wanted to duel with me in the street for chasing the wind...... What the hell did I ask you? If you don't pull the air pipe, no one cares about it! Is that the fucking point? The point is that I ate hundreds of miles of ash, and I didn't even catch a fart! You're sitting here and you're not doing anything, and you've picked up so many benefits!

This young master is too good at tossing, he didn't count the horse that robbed me, and now he is riding a tiger! He had returned the horse, but why wasn't I happy at all?

At this time, Hou Junji suddenly said: "Old cow! It's over, it's over! It's too bad to sprinkle so much salt and so much spice. ”

Yu Chigong heard the words and took a look, and sure enough, Niu Jinda was sprinkling fine salt on the barbecue, and his lavish style was simply distressing. Suddenly, his heart moved, and he suddenly got up, staring at Niu Jinda with round eyes.

"Old cow! Honestly, isn't there any way to get salt from Your Highness? This thing can't be hidden, it's a military matter. There is a shortage of salt in our army, and it is a shortage of all the Tang Dynasty......"

Niu Jinda smiled and said nothing, but Cheng Yanjin looked proud: "This is not to blame Lao Niu, it is His Highness who found a salt mine on the mountainside." It was originally bitter salt, except for wild beasts that could lick it, and people who ate it would be poisoned. But who is our Highness? That's a man among the immortals, and there are immortals! He asked people to dig out a big pit of the mineral salt, and made immortal methods in it, and now it has become edible white salt! ”

Niu Jinda added: "It's a pity, His Highness said that his immortal power is limited, and he can only purify twenty zhang ......."

Twenty...... Gentleman?!

Wei Chigong already had a big lump of salt mountains in his mind, and he couldn't stop scolding in a low voice: "Mother!" Mother! Why didn't I listen to Lao Hou's words, I have to practice what kind of fart soldiers! The benefits have all been made to Lao Cheng, I'm so angry! ”

Hou Junji ignored this, and muttered to Niu Jinda in a low voice. From time to time, there are bursts of exclamation, and I can't even feel the aroma of the barbecue in my mouth.

Wei Chigong felt strange and said loudly: "It's all my own family, why can't I see anyone?" Is this to anger me? ”

After Cheng Biting Jin finished feeding the little tiger, he ordered his soldiers to take out a box and open it by fire.

I saw that inside the box, there were several small wooden boxes one foot square.

Cheng Yanjin opened one of them, took out a booklet inside, and said: "This is the method of making salt, as long as you follow it, you will refine this bitter salt into refined salt!" ”

Wei Chigong hurriedly rubbed his hand on the placket a few times, raised it to look, and found that there was a little stain, so he licked it directly from his mouth, and rubbed his saliva off his clothes, so he carefully took the booklet, and looked at it by the firelight, the more he looked at it, the more happy he was in his heart, with this thing, the Tang soldiers will no longer lack salt, and their combat power will at least double!

At this time, Cheng Yanjin took out another wooden box: "This is the technique of cooked skin, the cooked leather can catch up with silk if it is soft, and it is much stronger than the craftsmanship of those beards." Look at this piece of skin, it's completely cloth! ”

Hou Junji took the booklet, didn't dare to be sloppy, flipped through a few pages, and hurriedly closed it, these are all secret recipes that are enough to support the prosperity of a family, and they belong to the level of passing on men and not women. People can let you know, but if you want to steal a teacher, it's a bit unkind.

Niu Jinda waved his hand: "It's okay!" If you want to see it, this is what His Highness has done with his own hands and asked people to transcribe it. There are also a few charcoal-burning methods and steel-making methods, and Lao Niu and I are just having a hand, and in the end they have to be handed over to His Majesty to dispose of. These things, when taken out, are treasures that can destroy the country, and we don't dare to be greedy for this cheapness. ”

As soon as he heard this, Wei Chigong's heart was balanced, this is right, it doesn't matter if you get some passing money, let you make a heirloom fortune, it will really cause trouble.

But think about it, if His Royal Highness the King of Chu can take it out to you, he will naturally be able to take it out to his emperor Laozi. If you dare to make a fortune with this, people will dare to block you directly.

Moreover, these things are indeed important weapons of the military state, and with these technologies, the improvement of Datang's national strength is predictable! Compared to the ability to kill, these techniques are more like fairy means!

"But!" Cheng Biting Jin smiled very proudly, turned his hand and showed a short knife with a cold light: "Your Highness and the two of us get along very happily, and gave each of us a knife. ”

As he spoke, Cheng Yanjin used the short knife in his hand to knock each other with a broken knife found out of nowhere, and the broken knife was cut in two without a sound.

"How?!" Cheng bit Jin Xi and saw his teeth and eyes: "I'm not bragging, right?" ”

Yu Chigong took the short knife, played with it, and blurted out again: "Enter the mother!" Mother! Such a good knife, to Lao Cheng, it's a waste! ”

Cheng Bingjin laughed, not minding being said to be dusty. How about the waste, I have you or not, so that you have to chase the wind and go to my door to show off! Retribution!

"Wait!" Wei Chigong also has no appetite to eat: "Tomorrow, put the Jingzhou soldiers here and let Lao Niu help train for a few days, and let's chase them to Shuozhou to find His Highness!" ”

Niu Jinda rolled his eyes: "It's not a problem to help you train the soldiers, just forget it when you two go to Shuozhou!" Your Majesty has come to the decree that Your Highness and you both go back separately. Your Highness, we can't stop it, so it's better for you two to take the order as soon as possible. Where His Highness wants to go, I'm afraid no one can care. If you two step into the Shuozhou territory, I'm afraid it will be a national war! ”

Cheng Yanjin added: "Luo Yi has been stripped of his military position by His Majesty in the name of supporting the army and self-respect, and he has also been removed from the clan name, and he can only be a rich man in the future." It's his luck, if he really changes to another one, whether he can save his life is two words. Lao Hei, you transfer some troops from Zuo Wuwei as soon as possible, and get the Jingzhou soldiers in your hands first, this matter is the most important thing at the moment. ”

Wei Chigong was deflated for a moment, and then he thought that Shuozhou and Dingxiang, the northern state cities, are not under the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty now. Datang does not have the strength and plan to destroy the country at the moment, and as a general, it is indeed inappropriate to offend the borders of other countries. Moreover, taking advantage of Luo Yi's being taken, it is the best time to completely control and build a series of soldiers and horses. If it is used by people with intentions to cause a rebellion, it is really a bit of a merit that the King of Chu has pursued and killed along the way.

Nibbling on the barbecue, Yu Chigong couldn't help but look forward to the little prince, there is such a strong strength, where in the world can it be! At this time, His Royal Highness is afraid that he has already arrived at Shuozhou City, I don't know, what is the reaction of Emperor Yonglong in Shuozhou City when he sees the prince?
