"You old man, don't you make fun of me?"

It's just that Ye Yanming hasn't been happy for long, when he was about to put the gold bars in his backpack, he found that the wooden box was full of stones, and the top was covered with gold foil as thin as cicada wings, so angry that Ye Yanming pulled the melon farmer's collar again and shouted.

"If I have so many gold bars, why bother planting melons here~"

The melon farmer seemed to be more aggrieved than Ye Yanming, perhaps he also thought it was not good to fool Ye Yanming like this, so when Ye Yanming left, he gave him 250 taels of silver.

“250？”

Ye Yanming looked at the silver handed by the melon farmer and muttered, this number is not good, so when he walked to the door, he threw a copper coin to the melon farmer.

1 tael of silver is 1000 copper coins, Ye Yanming is not a fool to give 1 tael of silver to the melon farmer, in this way, it is equivalent to the melon farmer giving him 249 taels of silver and 999 copper coins, and finally avoided the number 250.

The army stationed in the Jiangnan field is led by a loyal general on the fourth grade, and its strength is maintained at about 15,000 people all year round, not to mention that there are 15,000 elite soldiers who have experienced battlefield tempering, and in such a huge place in the Jiangnan field, they can only guarantee that there will be no monsters on the avenue during the day.

Hunters hunting, people collecting medicines, and people who often go into the mountains in search of novelty despite the danger, almost every day, on the case of this loyal general, there are records of various squads patrolling and finding mutilated corpses.

According to this military exploits of General Zhongwu on the border of the Tang Dynasty, he should have been promoted to General Yunlu from Sanpin, but he was the son of a certain important minister in the court, and his father was a supporter of Emperor Li Shimin's faction, so Li Shimin originally wanted him to make military achievements in the field of Jiangnan, and then he would be directly awarded the title of General Huaihua of Sanpin.

However, in the monthly military intelligence report, the number of people who were killed by monsters became more and more, and the monsters they killed were getting fewer and fewer.

Ye Yanming has already walked through the stone bridge at this moment, and I have to say that it is not easy to build this stone bridge, just to say that these stones, from the mining and transportation here, it is already a huge project.

According to the direction that Gua Nong said, the military camp stationed in the field of Jiangnan is stationed after crossing the bridge and then going straight for five miles, there will be another avenue on the right side of the dirt road, turn into this avenue and continue to go straight, you can see where the barracks are located.

It's just that Ye Yanming doesn't use walking, but running, because according to the time of walking, he will definitely not be able to reach the barracks before dark, and if he runs, according to the current season, he can just reach the barracks at sunset.

"Oh~ I just understand now"

Ye Yanming, who was panting and running, suddenly remembered why he smelled a familiar breath outside the fence of the melon field last night, and this breath was the same as the ghost aura emitted by the player wearing the ghost king when the ship was wrecked in the past.

Ye Yanming is racing against time, the wilderness in Jiangnan is indeed dangerous and abnormal, and I don't know how the players after level 10 arrived in Chang'an City safely, when the sun was setting in the West Mountain, Ye Yanming also heard the sound of shouting from afar.

The voice was uniform, and it was masculine and masculine, which made people seem to feel more secure when they heard it, but before Ye Yanming arrived at the gate of the barracks, he was stopped by a team of patrolling soldiers.

"Stop~ who is it? Dare to offend the barracks? ”

This is a group of ten patrol soldiers, one with a knife and nine with spears, four of them with spears, surrounded Ye Yanming in four directions, southeast, northwest and northwest, and the other five soldiers with guns were on guard, and the saber soldiers pointed at Ye Yanming and shouted.

"It's worthy of a soldier who has been on the battlefield, this murderous aura is really incomparable."

Ye Yanming looked at the cold light and said secretly, these soldiers are almost between 30 and 45 years old, and it can be seen that Li Shimin attaches great importance to the fertile Jiangnan wilderness, otherwise he would not have sent such elite soldiers to kill monsters.

Then Ye Yanming took out a rusty waist card from his backpack, most of the handwriting on the waist card was blurred, but Ye Yanming believed that as long as he showed this waist card, these soldiers would definitely bring him into the barracks, because this waist card was given to him by the lieutenant.

"This military master~ I am a loyal general who came to see you by someone, this is a waist card"

Ye Yanming smiled, and handed over the rusty waist card with both hands, the smile on Ye Yanming's face at the moment, in the eyes of ordinary people, was simply an extremely obscene smile, but the soldiers who led the team did not feel this way.

"Waist card?"

The saber soldier walked in front of Ye Yanming suspiciously, and took the waist card and looked at it carefully, but then the saber soldier's face became serious, this waist card does belong to their border army, but the handwriting is too blurry, fortunately, the waist card is cast in pure iron, although the handwriting is not clear, but there are still some traces of concave and convex.

So the saber soldier kept touching the traces in his right hand, and after distinguishing the words on the waist card, his face changed greatly, and he exclaimed: "Deputy Lieutenant Situ Nan~"

The nine soldiers beside Ye Yanming also changed their faces when they heard this, Situ Nan was a lieutenant of the border army a few years ago, but according to Captain Zhaowu who came back, this person and his 150 soldiers had already been devoured by the monsters, how could this lieutenant's token appear here.

"Who are you? Why is there a waist card of Deputy Lieutenant Situ Nan? ”

The saber soldier held the handle of the sword in his left hand, and held the waist card in his right hand and asked solemnly, One hundred and fifty elite soldiers and one lieutenant were slaughtered by monsters, which is almost unheard of in the entire Tang Dynasty.

This matter was also reported to the Imperial Military Department a few years ago, but the matter was too serious, so the Imperial Court completely suppressed this matter, and no one else knew about it except for the border troops stationed here, the emperor and several important ministers.

"This waist card was given to me by the lieutenant himself, but I can't say more about the specific details, I can only say it if I see your general."

Ye Yanming put away his smile and replied, now that he thinks about it, this matter is indeed full of suspicions, even if the former Zhaowu Captain did not look for the lieutenant, it stands to reason that the people in the military camp will send someone to search for it, but how can the bones of more than a hundred soldiers rot flesh and blood in the invasion of the years.

"It's a big deal, go back to camp right away"

The saber soldier nodded, and then gave the order, because this matter almost affected the Zhongwu general back then, which is why after so many years, no other border troops have come to change the guard.

The border troops stationed here are not going to leave in a few months, so the military camp here is not a military tent, but a three-zhang high city wall built of blue bricks, and inside the city wall, there are tiled houses one after another.

This military camp is quite close to the lake, because the military supplies are transported by the sailors, when Ye Yanming walked to the gate of the military camp with the soldiers on patrol, he found that there were many heavy bow carts densely placed on the city wall, and the woods were hundreds of meters away from the city wall.

"Hey~ Aren't you in charge of patrolling the perimeter today? Why are you back now? If you find it, you will have good fruit to eat."

On both sides of the city gate, there are sharp wooden horses, and the saber soldier just wanted to enter the city gate, but was stopped by a saber soldier on duty at the city gate.

"Get out of your uncle, I have my own way of doing things"

After the saber soldier hurriedly threw down this sentence, he immediately walked into the city with Ye Yanming, making the saber soldier on duty at the city gate momentarily confused, and then came back to his senses and said to himself: "This guy seems to be in a hurry."

"A few of you will immediately go back to the infantry battalion, inform the lieutenant of the incident, and ask him to arrange another person to patrol, and I will take this person to the general immediately."

Immediately after entering the city gate, the saber soldiers said to the nine spear-wielding soldiers that the barracks of the general Chungmu was located in the center of the barracks, and the entrance was guarded by four saber soldiers.

"There is an urgent military situation under his subordinates to report to General Zhongwu"

The saber soldier clasped his fists into fists at the door and said, and the soldier replied coldly: "General Zhongwu is discussing the military situation with several Zhuangwu generals and Xuanwei generals, and you are waiting on the side."

"The situation is urgent, please let me know first"

The saber soldier handed the waist card to the saber soldier as he spoke, the soldier frowned, since he had already said that several generals were discussing the military situation, he still said that he would report it first, it seemed that there should really be a major emergency, so he asked the saber soldier and Ye Yanming to wait at the door, and he hurriedly ran into the courtyard and pushed open the door of a room.

"General Qiyu Zhongwu, there is a chief outside who asked to see him, saying that he had something very important, and asked his subordinates to show this waist card to the general," said the saber soldier on one knee and clasped his hands into fists.

In the room, there were seven men in military uniform, each sitting on a stool, and sitting in the center of the Taishi chair was a man who looked like he was forty and five, and this person was the general of the field garrison stationed in Jiangnan.

In fact, the Taishi chair has not yet appeared in the Tang Dynasty, but this is just a game, and the game official will not care about these details, so in ordinary people's homes, the Taishi chair is almost common.

In the border army, the identity of the soldier of the saber is a chief, managing ten soldiers, and the army rank is extremely strict, from the weapon of the sabre, the armor on the body, etc., the identity of this person can be seen.

Hearing this, the Zhongwu general only frowned, and then waved his hand, signaling the soldier to take the belt, and after the sword soldier handed the waist card to the Zhongwu general with both hands, the Zhongwu general stroked the palm of his right hand, and he already knew what the waist card was originally engraved.

"Let him in right away"

General Zhongwu's face suddenly changed greatly, and he shouted at the saber soldier, and after a while, the saber soldier and Ye Yanming, led by several saber soldiers, came to General Zhongwu's office room.
