Hu Bing Leader Tsetun took a small group of Hu soldiers out to investigate and search. Along the way, there was a woman who looked like Ling Dongwu, the weather was hot this day, they found a tea shed to sit in it to rest and enjoy the coolness, and the people in the tea shed talked about what happened in Tiannan and Haibei.

I only heard a strong man say: "Although there are many soldiers in the Western Regions, they have been defeated after all, and our Nanzhao Kingdom has defeated the Western Regions soldiers with fewer victories three times in a row, which is really majestic!" ”

Another person interfaced: "The second lieutenant Mu Zicheng who leads the army, has a glaive knife in his hand and chases the wind horse under his crotch, that is called a powerful ......"

When Setun heard the words "Mu Zicheng", he immediately came to his senses, wasn't the young man who helped Ling Dongwu escape called "Mu Zicheng"? Will it be someone with the same name and surname? He hurriedly continued to listen......

"It's really a hero from ancient times, that Mu Zicheng is a young hero, not only has outstanding martial arts and strategy, but also looks like a talent......"

Cetun had seen Mu Zicheng in Green Bead City, and knew that he was a handsome young man, and now his appearance and age matched, so this Mu Zicheng must be Mu Zicheng who helped Ling Dongwu escape in Green Bead City, if you find him, you can find Ling Dongwu!

Zedun's eyes immediately lit up, and he pretended to be very interested and talked to everyone: "Master Mu is really powerful, but he doesn't know where his hometown is, and where does he come from?" ”

"I don't know where Lord Mu's hometown is, but I know that he turned out to be a disciple of General Lu Zhijian in Yanzhou City, and he was apprenticed to General Lu Zhijian's younger brother, Yang Mingyuan, a Qingfeng knight."

Tsedun carefully calculated in his heart, Yanzhou City, according to this, is not far, and if you go to the border between Nanzhao Kingdom and the Western Regions to find Mu Zicheng, the mountains are high and the road is far away, and Mu Zicheng has many soldiers around him, how can he easily get close to him. The Great Khan's reward is to find Ling Dongwu with a bounty of 10,000 taels, Ling Dongwu is a woman, and she must not follow Mu Zicheng to fight, since Mu Zicheng has stayed in Yanzhou City, Ling Dongwu is also in Yanzhou.

Tsetun hurriedly gave the tea money and led a few Hu soldiers to Yanzhou City.

Tsetun and the Hu soldiers entered the city of Yanzhou, and they searched around, only to know that Ling Dongwu went to Dezhou with the three princes, and they came to Dezhou again, and Ling Dongwu had assumed the name Ling Dong and was doing business everywhere.

After unremitting searching, Cetun finally met Ling Dongwu half a year later. At that time, Ling Dongwu was in a rather dignified team, and Cedun saw a handsome man in the middle of Cedun looking very familiar, Cedun and several Hu soldiers had seen Ling Dongwu many times before, and were very familiar with her appearance, and the handsome man on the horse was vaguely Ling Dongwu's appearance, and several Hu soldiers gathered together to discuss it, and determined that this handsome little brother was Ling Dongwu wearing men's clothes.

But they all saw that this team was well-trained and rigorous, and with just a few of them, it was impossible to forcibly take Ling Dongwu away. After quietly following for two days, they didn't find a chance for Ling Dongwu to be alone, and finally they discussed that they couldn't startle the snake, and sent two people back to Green Pearl City to report to Yi Zhikuo, and the rest of them disguised themselves and quietly followed behind this team, staring at Ling Dongwu.

***

Autumn is crisp and sunny. Such a good day is really suitable for drinking to the suburbs to ride a horse, relax, if tired, then lie down in the red leaves all over the mountains, squint for a while slightly drunk eyes.

"Childe, are you listening to us!" The energetic voice of Sun Daren, the chief butler of "Ling Ji", suddenly interrupted Ling Dongwu's daydream, and pulled her back from her beautiful yearning without a trace of guilt.

"Listen, listen! Great butler, you continue. Ling Dongwu opened his eyes without changing his face, raised his hand with a smile, and made a gesture of "Please continue, I am listening carefully" to Sun Daren, who was almost blowing his beard and glaring, and asked him to continue to tell the story...... Oh no, it's a matter.

"It's weird if you listen carefully." Through more than a year of contact, Sun Daren was completely impressed by Ling Dongwu's agile thinking and superb business talent, but he was also surprised by her childish fugue from time to time, and she was full of indifference and anger.

Ling Dongwu rested his left elbow on the desk beside him, and leaned lazily and looked up at the hand-drawn map of the area that hung on an entire wall. In the curved and dense lines on the map, there are neat small letters marking the entire territory of this era—208 roads, 72 prefectures, 321 prefectures and counties, and all the countries around the territory of the dynasty are drawn in detail.

The other steward who was standing immediately bowed down and said: "My son, the affairs in the south have also been done, including the four major prefectures of Guangzhou, Mingzhou, Hangzhou, and Quanzhou. ”

"It seems that the third prince is really powerful! If it weren't for his secret help, how could we get through these levels so easily, Steward Sun, from now on, whether it is to transport porcelain, wax tea and silk of various colors, or to bring in medicinal herbs, spices and silk, I will control all the merchant goods and merchant ships, and resell all the forbidden goods. ”

"The little one understands." Sun Daren has always been a resolute supporter of Ling Dongwu's wise decision, "The number of transactions we have with Ru Kiln this time is huge, as many as 100,000 pieces of porcelain. Ru kiln has been a tribute since ancient times, after our tea trade with Persian merchants, this group of powerful Persian merchants placed an order, asking for the purchase of a batch of Ru kiln by sea to be exported to Persia, food and other places. But it's the first time we've ordered such a huge amount with Ruyao, Childe, why don't you go and see it for yourself tomorrow! ”

"Okay, no problem." Ling Dong Wushuang agreed, she didn't want to make Sun Daren angry!

In Ruyao, Ling Dongwu was amazed to experience such exquisite porcelain for the first time, and the two sides reached an agreement and signed the order.

Ling Dongwu had just finalized the Ru kiln porcelain deal, and news came from Dezhou, saying that Mu Zicheng had led his troops to Dezhou, and Ling Dongwu had no intention of staying here, Sun Daren had already visited some of the larger merchants here and arranged everything, so Ling Dongwu decided to leave for Texas immediately tomorrow.

After Ling Dongwu returned to Texas, he first went to meet the third prince Xia Wenxuan, the handsome and noble Xia Wenxuan, when he saw Ling Dongwu, the pride and loftiness that the prince should have in his expression were swept away, and was replaced by a heart full of joy and love, Ling Dongwu was wearing men's clothes, tight clothes, black boots, white skin was as clear as jade, black long hair was tied to the top of his head with a hosta, Jiaoyan with the heroic spirit of Tsinghua University, look at her a few more times, and he felt like a shortness of breath and heartbeat. "Dongwu, hard work!" I don't know when Xia Wenxuan always called Ling Dongwu so affectionately.

"The prince is polite, this is the money earned in the past two months, please take a look." Saying that, Ling Dongwu handed over a stack of thick silver tickets to Xia Wenxuan, and then got a cup of tea very freely, raised his neck, and dried up, took a piece of osmanthus cake on the plate, sat on the stool without any image, and began to eat.

And Xia Wenxuan has long been accustomed to Ling Dongwu's grinning appearance, not only used to it, but also appreciated her unpretentious appearance, without a little twist on a woman's body, and said with a smile: "Slow down, look choked!" ”

"Well, I can't choke, Lord Wang, this is an osmanthus cake made with this year's new osmanthus flowers, really order!"

Xia Wenxuan was also accustomed to the special language that came out of her mouth from time to time, and looked at her dotingly, "Just your mouth, such a mouth, in the future, this king can let people serve more snacks!" He lowered his head and looked at the heavy silver ticket in his hand, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "What kind of virtue and how can this king meet such a lovely person as Dongwu!" ”

Ling Dongwu was not in the mood to listen to his emotion now, "Lord Wang, is my brother back!" ”

"Yes, Mu Gongzi is back, this king recently used the money you earned back to recruit troops again, and now Mu Gongzi is training them in the school field!"

"Okay, then I'll go see my brother now!" While speaking, the person had already run out of the door, leaving the third prince Xia Wenxuan facing her back, stunned.

Mu Zicheng has fought many times in the past two years with the soldiers of the Western Regions, the Northern Desert soldiers and the wandering Hu soldiers, he has a lot of ideas about the arrangement of troops, he is not the kind of nerd who talks about soldiers on paper, and often has unexpected new moves, which is deeply appreciated by Yang Mingyuan. On weekdays, he continued to study the art of war, combined with the "phantom sword technique" he gradually comprehended the mystery of the new group operation and individual effective defense, he told his idea to the master Yang Mingyuan, and won Yang Mingyuan's praise, the two together, set out to write a new practical art of war of the Southern Zhao soldiers - "The Southern Zhao Army Strategy", the previous part has been completed, it happened that Xia Wenxuan asked him to train the Southern Zhao soldiers, and he began to popularize the drill in some of the Southern Zhao troops to observe the effect.

Mu Zicheng first explained the first chapter of "The Military Strategy of Nanzhao" basically an overview of the deployment of troops, and spent half a day explaining the main points with the generals. At this time, he was leading the 30,000 Southern Zhao Soldiers Group to encircle and exercise. Although the training time is still short, and the cooperation of the various branches is not very tacit, because this army has been following his subordinates for the past two years, intensive training and actual combat for two years, it is very easy to get started.

Before Ling Dongwu arrived at the martial arts training ground, he had already heard the earth-shattering sound of drills coming from the school field in the distance, and when he saw Master Yang Mingyuan coming over, he was overjoyed, and immediately trotted up to meet him, holding Yang Mingyuan's arm affectionately: "Master, you are back." ”

Yang Mingyuan looked at the slim little apprentice standing in front of him, and smiled lovingly: "Dong'er, my good boy, you took the initiative to ask Ying to go out to do business, and I know all about helping the three princes to buy horses with the huge amount of money you earned, you are so clever and well-behaved, the master is really happy!" ”

Ling Dongwu listened to the master's praise for himself, and smiled beautifully, "Master, I am so capable, this time you don't regret accepting me as an apprentice!" ”
