Shuntianfu West Road Hall Zhuozhou.

Zhuozhou is one hundred and forty miles away from the capital, is the first important town in the south of the capital, is also a historical city, known as the first state in the world, celebrities, during the Three Kingdoms period of Shu Emperor Liu Bei, Han Huanhou Zhang Fei, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, Eastern Han Dynasty minister Lu Zhi, six ancestors Zen master Huineng, Northern Wei Dynasty famous geographer, writer Li Daoyuan, Tang Dynasty famous poet Lu Zhaolin, Jia Island, are all from Zhuozhou.

As soon as the sky is dark, there is a dense sound of horses' hooves on the official road in the north, which leads the people who are enjoying the cool outside to watch, although Zhuozhou is the official road to rush, people come and go on weekdays, the river is endless, but the sky is dark and still riding a horse is rare, besides, listen to the sound of horses' hooves, there are still a lot of people, to see the officers and soldiers of the brigade, a group of people can't help but guess the level of the military attaché, it is impossible for the civilian officials to have so many cavalry.

Needless to say, the officers and soldiers galloping on the official road were the palace guards who fought in front of the station, Zhenwu suddenly decided to go out to patrol Jinshan, and it was a fast horse gallop, indicating that tomorrow they would stay in Dingxing County, two hundred miles away, and they only had to urgently dispatch to arrange, not only to arrange the food and beverage of the guards in advance, but also to bring out a batch of royal horses in advance, two hundred miles of road, the horses must be transferred, and Zhenwu could not be allowed to transfer to the post horses provided by the post stations along the way.

This group of guards did not enter the city, went to the Nanguan Post Station in the south of the Yaowang Temple, such a large formation has already alarmed the Nanguan Post Station Song Yingxing, although the post is not into the stream, but every day to usher in the send-off, are experienced, only heard the dense sound of horses' hooves, Song Yingxing knew that it was the officers and soldiers of the brigade, secretly guessed that it should be the chief soldier who went to the post, the commander of the first level, these hills, the post station is the most afraid, he naturally did not dare to slack off, immediately took a group of husbands and servants at the intersection, but secretly complained in his heart, so many people, Why didn't you send someone to give you an announcement in advance?

The horse team slowly stopped at the intersection, and the general who led the team jumped off his horse in front of Song Yingxing, handed the reins to the husband who met him, and ordered in a deep voice: "Two hundred horses, four hundred horses, people can be settled, the horses need fine materials, and they will add material once in the middle of the night." ”

Song Yingxing glanced at the sapphire on the top of the other party's hat, this is the top of the third-grade official, and he couldn't help but wonder slightly, even if it is the general soldier, it is also the top of the second grade, this military general has such a big formation, why is it only the top of the third grade? Is a general so big a show? Puzzled in his heart, he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask for a salute.

The leader of the team is no one else, it is the most popular first-class imperial guard in front of Zhenwu Da Chun, this kind of drudgery is not his turn, but due to the urgency of time, he is not at ease, so he personally led the team to arrange, because Zhenwu said that it was the micro service first, when he went out of Beijing, Da Chun ordered all the guards to put the flower feathers and yellow coats that marked the identity into the bag, and the two hundred people were galloping all the way, and he did not arrange anyone to play the front station at all.

Seeing Song Yingxing's invitation, Da Chun waved his hand and said, "It's a vain courtesy, hurry up and arrange it." ”

"Oh, the lower official will arrange it." Saying that, Song Yingxing got up and shouted to a group of servants to lead the way, when he saw those horses, he couldn't help but secretly complain, these horses turned out to be first-class good horses, this is not a good waiter, seeing that the horses were sweating profusely, he was heartache again, these Qiu Ba actually didn't know how to cherish horsepower.

Entering the main courtyard, Da Chun didn't have time to wash, so he ordered the second-class guards Gan Hongjun and Che Tong to summon them, went into the house to wash up for a while, poured a cup of herbal tea, Gan Hongjun and Che Tong rushed over, and saw that the two wanted a rabbit ceremony, he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Sit, there is no need to be formal outside." ”

As soon as the two of them sat down, he said in a deep voice: "In the jurisdiction of Shuntian Mansion, the problem is not big, but into the land of Jin and Shaanxi, it is difficult to say, one is a spring drought, the other is Australian immigration, resulting in a bit of chaos in the situation in the two provinces. ”…,

Hearing this, Gan Hongjun and Che Tong hurriedly bowed their hands and said, "The subordinate officer will receive the order." ”

"The situation is special, and there is no need to be rigid about the means."

Da Chun nodded a sentence to the two of them, took out a stack of silver tickets and handed them over, and said: "This is a silver ticket that is redeemed for 10,000 taels, in case of dotting along the way, in addition, for those who have real skills, you may wish to recruit them, now the court is the time to employ people, and the time you follow the master is not short, and the master's temperament is also known, so I won't twist my tongue." What else is needed, albeit opening. ”

Recruiting strange people on the rivers and lakes, exploring the situation of large and small gangs on the rivers and lakes, this is the responsibility of Gan Hongjun, Che Tong, and Luo Jing, it can be said that it is a matter of duty, when you go out, you are naturally rich and easy to do, Gan Hongjun is not polite, he took it, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, the commander, there will never be any accidents." After a slight hesitation, he continued: "I need some helpers and horses to make contact in time." ”

"Pick your own horses." Da Chun groaned and said: "The master is in a hurry all the way, try not to make extraneous branches, the contact can not be broken, must be reported twice a day, there is something urgent at any time, in addition, Henan has the custom of fleeing to Shanxi in case of famine, this point also needs to be noted, after arriving in Taiyuan, the master's whereabouts can not be hidden, everywhere you need to be careful." ”

"Your Majesty." Gan Hongjun and Che Tongtong hurriedly bowed their hands.

Song Yingxing was busy, and it was not easy to straighten out the matter at hand, but there was a dense sound of horses' hooves on the official road he heard, and he couldn't help but secretly complain, what kind of evil is this today? Here comes and goes! How is this placed underneath?

Listening to the sound of horses' hooves, Da Chun also walked out, listened intently for a moment, and his thick eyebrows wrinkled, there were actually three or four horses, could it be that those ministers of the guard sent a large group of men and horses to come? This is a good thing, two hundred people hit the front station, this force is indeed a little thin, thinking of this, he quickly walked out of the station.

It was not the palace guards who came, but the new army of the Praetorian Guards led by Yue Zhongqi, seeing the bright lights in the post station, Yue Zhongqi knew that the palace was playing the guards in front of the station, and when he passed through Liangxiang, he already knew that these guards were in front of them, stopped the horse, and Song Yingxing, the post man, carried the lantern to greet him, and said embarrassedly: "This general, Nanguan Post has been inhabited by two hundred people, MT." ”

Yue Zhongqi lived in Nanguanyi when he entered Beijing, and knew that Nanguanyi was a big station, so he immediately smiled and said: "Two hundred people will fill Nanguanyi?" ”

"General Hui, there are still four hundred horses." Song Yingxing said with a sad face: "The general has brought so many horses again, and the forage bean cake is not available for a certain purpose." ”

"It's not a bother." Yue Zhongqi jumped off the horse and said, "The forage bean cakes will be loaded immediately, just arrange people to take care of them, and in addition, arrange food and accommodation for another hundred people, this should be no problem, right?" ”

When did these Qiu Ba be so easy to talk to? Song Yingxing put his mind at ease, bowed down and said, "No problem, the next official will arrange it immediately." ”

Da Chun only walked over at this time, and glanced at Yue Zhongqi up and down, he had only seen this young general who Zhenwu admired a lot, he had only met a few times, he was not familiar with it, and he didn't recognize it at a glance.

Yue Zhongqi didn't know him either, but he guessed that it should be the imperial guard, and immediately arched his hand and said: "Yue Zhongqi in the Xiashunyi camp, I don't know the adult" ......"

As soon as he heard this, Da Chun couldn't help but smile and said: "It's dark, I didn't recognize it, I'm Da Chun, go, talk in the house." ”

Da Chun is the most respected first-class imperial guard in front of Zhenwu, Yue Zhongqi has naturally heard of it, and after the two of them entered the house and sat down again, Yue Zhongqi said: "The new guard army is ordered to go to Shanxi, and intercept the fast horses from the capital to Shanxi, our war horses are a little slower, and most of them will stay in Liangxiang County tonight." ”

Hearing this, Da Chun couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, it turned out that Zhenwu also arranged for the Praetorian Guard New Army to enter Shanxi, so there was no need to worry too much, even if his whereabouts were exposed, there was no problem, as for the purpose of the Praetorian New Army entering Shanxi, it was not something he should care about, and he didn't bother to ask. …,

After a slight sigh, he said: "The Praetorian New Army dispatched Gu Shao's people? ”

Yue Zhongqi was not wary of Da Chun, so he bluntly said: "This line is five hundred horses, all of which are one horse and two horses. ”

Only five hundred? Da Chun couldn't help frowning slightly, this manpower is a little short, it stands to reason, the front and rear stations, a range of more than 100 miles, must be firmly controlled, what is the problem with this idea of troops? This master is good at everything, but he is a little willful, how can he go out on patrol so urgently? I don't know what the number of people who will leave Beijing from him tomorrow will be, but with his temperament, I don't think there will be much.

Da Chun is good, Zhenwu did not bring many people, only brought two hundred guards, the sky was just dawn, from Guang'anmen out of the capital, the sky is still early, the official road can not see any pedestrians, cars and horses, Zhenwu did not care, all the way galloping.

This official road is one of the five main post roads of the Qing Dynasty, the road is wide and smooth, there are people to maintain it all the year round, all the way to the horse galloping, Zhenwu is very happy, but an hour to arrive at the good township seventy miles away, until this time, he noticed that this road even a carriage, mule cart has not been encountered, I think it is the guard who hit the front station has sealed this official road section by section, it seems that the emperor went out on patrol, if you want not to disturb the people, it is tantamount to a fool's dream.

At this time, Yin Yu patted the horse and followed, and said with a smile: "The emperor hasn't been so happy for a long time, has he already arrived in a good country, do you want to take a break, use some gluttony, change a horse and then hurry?" ”

Zhenwu lifted the reins of the horse, slowed down, and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I've been so happy, it's good to rest, and if you run again, the horse really can't bear it." ”

Yin Yu pointed to the front with a horsewhip and said: "There is a tea shed in front, you might as well rest there for a while, there are many of us, and we can't get out of the city for half a day." ”

This official road is sealed, can you still tolerate someone in the tea shed to operate? Without thinking about it, he knew that this was deliberately arranged, Zhenwu glanced at it, nodded slightly, and said, "Okay, it's good to take advantage of the sun not to be poisonous." ”

The group hastily ate some of the dumplings they carried with them, rested a little, and then continued on the road, rushing to the Nanguan Post Station in Zhuozhou.
