Word soon spread that Jose was leaving for Modo County. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The first to question it was Fat Gould, who obviously didn't agree with Joseph rushing to the Northwest Army, after all, there were now troops from the Northwest Army in the four counties of the River Valley Corridor. As the base camp of the Northwest Army, Moduo County has more than 30,000 soldiers, all of whom are descendants of Longkeduo's legions, and it also includes more than 10,000 cavalry corps.

As an official on the central side of the empire, Jose's identity was always a little sensitive, and the Northwest Army did not show up when he came to the county town of Sadland, and Gould did not agree to contact the Northwest Army. According to the fat man's idea, if the Northwest Army doesn't care about the affairs of the county town of Sadland, then it is best not to provoke them, and there is nothing wrong with everyone's well water not being in the river water.

But José was thinking about more than that, this Gray and the two banner regiments under his command were obviously the forces that the Northwest Army had planted in Sadrand. If he is now able to gain a foothold in Sadland, he must at least inquire about the attitude of the Northwest Army.

It had been almost ten days since he had been in Sadland, and since the Sistine had already visited, he was not short of the general Ronkdo. Moreover, the Northwest Army has extended its hands to its own territory, and even if it has nothing, it cannot always be so indifferent. This time I went to Moduocheng, not only can I test the attitude of the Northwest Army, but I may also be able to learn about some of the reality of the Northwest Army.

"But Boss Jose, aren't you afraid that the Northwest Army will detain you? Now their relationship with the Empire is a little delicate, after all, you are not from the Northwest Army, but in their territory, will it be a little dangerous to come to the door so rashly?" the fat man frowned and asked his own question.

However, Jose didn't care about this, just smiled strangely and said: "I've been in Sadland for more than ten days, except for this Gray who made me a few times in trouble at the beginning, has the Northwest Army reacted in any way?"

Hmph, to put it bluntly, I, the official position of a county guard in Sadland, say that it is not a big novel, so that the generals of the Northwest Army will not mind too much. And they deliberately didn't see me, I'm afraid they also have your thoughts, but in my opinion, sooner or later, I'm afraid that sooner or later we will have a war with those Northwest Army, since this is the case, why didn't Lao Tzu take the initiative to attack and find out the reality of the Northwest Army?"

Looking at Gould's puzzled look, Joseph couldn't help but shake his head and explained: "My official is just a county prefect in the county town of Sadland, and the title is no more than the status of the Imperial Viscount, and the Northwest Army will not do anything to me." And since they acquiesced to me, the county governor, it means that they don't want to rebel at least now, at least they are still obedient to the empire for now, so that they won't rashly attack me. If I do have any accidents on their turf, I'm afraid it may not be what they want to see, right?

Since they don't want to tear their faces with the empire now, then I have a good degree of confidence that the Northwest Army will not act rashly for the time being. And I'm going to go sooner or later on this trip, and it's better to go early than late. Speaking of which, in the last war in the northwest, I also had a few encounters with this general Ronkedo! Hehe, I just don't know if he knows me with his current powerful position?"

"That being said, who can guarantee that those guys in the Northwest Army will not play any tricks and do something behind their backs? My lord, how many people do you plan to take with you when you go to Moduo City this time, why don't you let me take a team of men and horses to follow you?"

Joseph smiled slightly, stretched out two fingers at random, and Gould was stunned: "Two thousand?"

"Twenty men are enough! You pick out twenty cavalrymen from the garrison of the county guard, and you want to choose the kind of veterans from the northwest, and give me all the armor of the security army, but remember, the kind of armor that is slightly worn out. As for you, your task has not been completed, so stay in the county town and train the army for Lao Tzu!"

"What, there are only twenty people, and those veterans are still selected, how can this work?" The fat man was anxious when he heard this, and couldn't help but persuade in a low voice: "Boss, where can this person get any security work?"

"Hearing you say this, twenty people are indeed a little less, so that's it, you find another fifty infantry for Lao Tzu and form a convoy, the requirements are still the same, the old and weak soldiers plus shabby armor, understand?"

Jose smiled strangely, with a sinister smile on his face: "Besides, who said that these people are going to protect me? Hmph, you also know that there are tens of thousands of Northwest Army troops in Moduo City, even if I bring 2,000 people, what is the use? I took these people with me, not to protect me, but to show Longke, with tens of thousands of Northwest Army in Moduo City......"

Three days later, at the gate of the city of Sadland, the county keeper led a convoy of dozens of people, a group of more than ten carriages and horses, swaggering towards the direction of Moduo City.

In the carriage, Joseph closed his eyes without saying a word, while Xiao Maoton was on the side. These days, this half-grown child has grown a lot taller, and has begun to learn martial arts under Gould's teaching, but his body is still a little thin, but his eyes have a little more tenacity.

"Teacher, I heard that we are going to the base camp of the Northwest Army this time, right?" Xiao Maoton sat opposite Joseph, with some hesitation in his eyes.

"Yes, the teacher is going to Moduo City this time to deal with some important matters, oh, by the way, I will pass through the Geerqin grassland back and forth! Jose glanced at Xiao Mao Tong seemingly calmly and smiled faintly.

"Teacher, in fact, my identity ......" Xiao Maoton hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to look at Jose and said: "Actually, Uncle Alam concealed my background at that time, and I am not Uncle Almu's nephew. Actually, I am, I am ......"

"I know, you are one of the Seven Tents of the Prairie, a descendant of the former leader of the Duoyan tribe, is that so?" Jose smiled faintly, as if he had already guessed what Xiao Maodun was going to say.

"Teacher, are you ...... How will you know who I am?!"

Jose looked at Xiao Maoton's surprised look, and couldn't help but smile and shake his head, sure enough, it was a child, thinking that he was hiding his identity, but in fact, he didn't know that he had already guessed his identity.

"I've actually been aware of it for a long time, whether it's from the words of this little guy of yours or the look on that Almator when he was lonely, I feel that he seems to be deliberately hiding your identity.

It's just that the teacher doesn't care about what you hide from the teacher, after all, you're just a child, and you're in a barren place like the grassland, many times, I'm afraid you can only survive by learning to lie......"
