It was about the cold, and no one opened their mouths to speak along the way.

"Stop, rest in place for a moment!" Bao Qing ordered the herald to pass the order.

Bao Qing took out the simple map given by Li Qing, this map is really bad, it does not indicate all the roads and villages, even some lakes are not marked, and of course there is no topographic contour. If it weren't for Zhang Long, I was really afraid that I would get lost. It seems that if a complete map of the Song-Liao border can be drawn in the future, it may be able to sell for a good price.

Seeing that Bao Qing stopped to look at the map, Zhang Long immediately asked the soldiers to bring a few horses to block the wind around him, and took out a piece of cloth for camping from the horseback to block the wind for Bao Qing.

"We are now rushing to the direction of Yizhou, and we are probably in this position now. Here is the place where General Cao was besieged, that is, the encirclement of the Liao army. If the Liao army wanted to transport the grain and grass from Yizhou as quickly as possible, it would probably take the shortest straight-line distance. Bao Qing said, using his hand to draw a straight line between the position of Cao Xi's encirclement and Yizhou.

"Zhang Long, are there any obstacles such as hillsides and lakes in the middle of this journey?" Bao Qing looked up and asked Zhang Long.

Zhang Long looked at it carefully, pointed to the place near the encirclement on the map, thought for a while, and said: "Except for a lake near the place where General Cao was besieged, not only is there no obstruction on this line, but there are no villages. ”

Bao Qing tapped the map with his hand and said, "Let's follow this line and see what we can find." ”

……

"My lord, there are more than a dozen cavalrymen here, it should be reconnaissance cavalry."

When Zhang Long heard this, he immediately pulled out the long Mo knife from his horse's back and made a fighting appearance.

"Find a place to hide quickly, slow down, and don't raise dust." Bao Qing was a little anxious, and it was not yet time to be exposed.

"My lord, I stayed to observe, in fact, it doesn't matter how many scouts I killed, Commander Li often sent people to reconnoiter everywhere a few days ago, and he also fought with each other, and there were both dead and wounded."

"Oh?" Bao Qing thought for a while and asked, "About a dozen, have you dealt with it?" ”

Zhang Long nodded.

"Then you stay here, remember not to kill them all, but to put a few back, just like the reconnaissance commanded by Li a few years ago. But you have to pay attention to observe and find out whether this is really the Liao people's grain road, and see how many hours the convoy transporting grain passes. Bao Qing instructed.

"Yes, sir!"

Bao Qing withdrew with people, and waited for nearly half of the night, the more Bao Qing waited, the more anxious he became, Cao Yun proposed to run to see the situation by himself, but Bao Qing couldn't rest assured, and finally waited.

"My lord, Zhang Long is back!" A soldier whispered.

"What? Injured? Bao Qing asked when he saw Zhang Long, who was covered in blood.

Zhang Long was out of breath, obviously a little tired, but he still insisted: "I was shot with two arrows, and I have a bronze mirror to protect my heart." That's right, sir. The Liao grain convoy passed through about two hours, but at night, it seemed that it was not transported. ”

"Two hours? It's not lucky at night, and it's probably just four trips a day. It seems that if you carry out a raid on this grain and grass, it will not be difficult to do. Because as long as the grain convoy in front is attacked, I believe that the one behind will soon know. What about the escort of the Liao people's grain convoy? Bao Qing asked.

"There are many grooms in each grain convoy, and there are not too many fixed guards, about three or four hundred people. However, the Liao had a cavalry of about 5,000 men patrolling the grain road. Zhang Long replied.

"Oh? That is, there are as many as 5,000 mobile guards. Bao Qing has a headache, it seems that he really can't give up on the Yellow River, then Li Qing is right, it's hard to start.

It was night, Bao Qing couldn't sleep over and over, in addition to the cold weather, his heart was even more anxious.

Just when Bao Qing was tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, a black shadow sneaked into the camp tent, Bao Qing was startled, and was about to call. The black shadow had already pounced on him, and Bao Qing's mouth had already been blocked by a fragrant lip.

"Cao Yun?" When Bao Qing touched the round and firm buttocks with one hand, he knew that it must be Cao Yun, besides, Zhanfang was not there, and the few female soldiers who followed Cao Yun believed that they didn't have the guts.

"Brother Bao, can't you sleep?" Sure enough, it was Cao Yun.

"Yes, no, I can't sleep, but not the kind of cranky you think." Bao Qing thought that he couldn't sleep because he was anxious, but he couldn't sleep because he was thinking about women.

"I know, I'm a little cold and can't sleep, so I went to sleep in your bed."

"Cold? You shouldn't have come, women were not allowed in this barracks, what should you do if you are like this now? ”

"Brother Bao, why are you so cowardly! I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of? No one saw it, but he didn't stop the wood outside the door. After Cao Yun finished speaking, she drilled her delicate body into Bao Qing's arms and put her bulging chest on Bao Qing's chest.

Bao Qing was a little unbearable, so he had to hug Cao Yun. This beauty is in her arms, and she is in love at night, what are you waiting for. Thinking of this, Bao Qing's hands slowly stretched out to Cao Yun's body, and a lust slowly rose.

At this time, Cao Yun didn't move, and what came into Bao Qing's ears was a slight snoring sound when she was asleep.

What! Is this Niko asleep? But what should I do? This lust is half-hung like this? Who are you going to put out the fire now?

Bao Qing had no choice but to put on his clothes. Go out and breathe, let this cold night breeze quench your desires.

Bao Qing had no choice but to walk out of the tent door, just in time to see Zhang Long guarding outside the tent. Bao Qing patted Zhang Long on the shoulder and said, "Hard work! ”

"It's okay, it's a subordinate duty! My lord, go to sleep. Zhang Long was a little moved, but he didn't expect Bao Qing to come out to see him in the middle of the night.

"It's okay, I'll accompany you!" Bao Qing was blown by the cold wind, and suddenly felt much more comfortable.

Zhang Long saw that Bao Qing seemed to be deliberately out of the camp tent to accompany him, and he couldn't help but be very grateful in his heart, and then he was a little puzzled, he saw Cao Yun enter the camp tent with his own eyes just now, what? Lord Bao, this is the daughter who doesn't look down on General Cao?

Two days later, Bao Qing finally fully figured out the grain transportation channel from Yizhou to Liaoying, as well as the time and order of grain transportation.

"Brother Bao, the dynasty sent someone to report it!" Cao Yun shouted, she was the most anxious at the moment.

"Your Excellency!" Bao Qing, the messenger who came to report, knew that it was the sixth son of the dynasty's little follower, and the six sons were covered in dust, and there were still some blood stains on their backs.

"Sixth son, come, drink some water first! What about a point of contact? Bao Qing asked.

I saw that the sixth son held the water bladder in his hand, but he was not in a hurry to drink, but said anxiously: "My lord, the Zhan guards came to report that they really discovered the second grain route of the Liao people, and the amount of grain transported is huge, and it is our Song people's guards, and they handed over in the middle." After that, the Liao people received the escort. ”

"Oh?" Bao Qing didn't have too many surprises about the result, "Did you find out where the food came from?" ”

"It's in the direction of Baozhou, but it's not sure yet! Zhan escorted them mainly to find out the place of grain handover. Liuzi said.

"Okay, now we have something to do! By the way, what about Jin Wandao? ”

"The Jin guards didn't find anything, oh yes, they went the wrong way, and they almost got into the camp of the Liao army, and half of their brothers died. Ay! The sixth son replied.

Bao Qing sighed when he heard this, and said, "Hey! There was still some accident. Is your point of contact okay then? ”

"The contact point is well hidden! Rest assured, sir! That is, when the king sent us, there were five brothers, and in the end I was the only one who found this. "What the sixth son said was a little sad.

"Don't go yet, get some rest!"
