Chapter Twenty-Four: The Secret of the Three Guards

Wang Ben and Bai Yulu glanced at each other, and said in a deep voice outside the tent: "Let the scouts come in!" ”

"Yes!"

After only a few moments, a Sima in soft armor walked in with a scout dressed as a hunter.

"I've seen the General!"

"Get up and talk back!"

After Wang Ben gave the order, after the two stood up, they stood respectfully aside, waiting for Wang Ben's inquiry.

"When did the army of the Wind Chu Kingdom arrive at the Flame Stone Pass? Who leads the troops? Wang Ben asked bluntly.

The scout dressed as Orion stood in front of Wang Benshuai's case, knelt down on one knee and said: "General Hui, the 100,000 army of the Fengchu State, led by Zhao Boping, the former general of the Zhao clan of the Fengchu State, drove out from the Songling camp five days ago, and outside the Chen Bingyanshi Pass two days ago. ”

"Have the enemy ever attacked the Flame Stone Pass?"

"No, the enemy army resisted the Flame Stone Pass ten miles away, so they camped down and did not attack the Flame Stone Pass." The scout replied.

Wang Ben was silent for a while, then waved his hand and said, "You guys go down first, and keep an eye on the enemy's movements at any time!" ”

"Yes!"

After Sima and the scouts left, Wang Ben turned his head to Bai Yulu and Wei'er and said, "Feng Chu State suddenly dispatched an army of 100,000 troops, and it is very likely that it is to respond to Hu Liao. Otherwise, it wouldn't be such a coincidence, and the Feng Chu Kingdom would attack the empire at this time. ”

Bai Yulu also thought of such a situation, nodded and said in agreement: "What the general said is right, it is too much of a coincidence that the army of the Feng Chu Kingdom appeared at this time. If, from this point of view, what Hu Liao wants to do may not only be to replace the crown prince! I've heard that since this guy appeared in the Lei Qin Kingdom, he has used the trick of sideways and gained the trust of the king. Moreover, wasn't he named prime minister only after he presented the bearded banshee to the king? ”

Wang Ben nodded with a gloomy face, this matter has always been an indescribable indignation for the ministers of Lei Qin State. Hu Liao was able to ascend to the position of prime minister, and it was because of a Hu girl, which made the court situation of Lei Qin State fundamentally change, sweeping away the honest and honest situation left by the previous kings. However, at this time, because Wei'er was present, Wang Ben couldn't say anything to the king, but he still thought in his heart that the current king was falling into the trap set for him by Hu Liao step by step.

Wei'er didn't speak, and the sudden appearance of the army of Feng Chu Kingdom made her a little unexpected. If this is the case, it seems that the army of the Lantian battalion cannot be easily mobilized, and it must be ready to reinforce the Flame Stone Pass at any time. If this is really the case, it will be dangerous in Naxu Langshan, once the Black Wolf Legion comes, without the support of the army, the people of the Bai clan alone will not be able to support it at all.

Hearing the conversation between Bai Yulu and Wang Ben, she also realized that this was probably Hu Liao's conspiracy. Unconsciously anxious, he said: "Uncle Wang, if this is the case, why can't the army here be able to support Xu Lang Mountain?" ”

Before Wang Ben could speak, Bai Yulu also frowned, looked at Wei'er and said sadly: "Needless to say, you can't let the Chu Kingdom take advantage of it, right?" Your father is too, for the sake of a beauty, he actually listens to everything from Hu Liao! ”

"Ugh!"

After Wang Ben heard Bai Yulu's words, he stared at him and Wei'er in astonishment and didn't dare to interject, but he thought in his heart that this kid was really bold, and in front of Princess Wei'er, he actually bluntly said that the king was not.

However, to Wang Ben's surprise, Wei'er did not refute, but looked helpless and sad, as if she was also very indignant about her father's behavior.

Seeing that both of them looked worried, Wang Ben laughed and said, "Who told you that the 100,000 people of his Fengchu country will be able to drag the army of my Lantian battalion." Ha ha! Even if he comes another 300,000, the old man will still be able to deal with it! ”

Hearing this, Bai Yulu and Wei'er both showed a hint of surprise, and turned their heads to look at Wang Ben expectantly. I only heard Wang Ben continue: "The army of this Lantian battalion is only the main force of the imperial standing army, and there are garrisons in all passes and major border cities, and they are all under the control of the old man. If all of them are counted, even if the main force of the Lantian camp is excluded, the old man can still gather an army of 300,000 to deal with the Black Wolf Legion and several tribes, which is more than enough! ”

Wei Er was surprised when she heard this, but she found that Bai Yulu's brows were still furrowed, and she didn't know what she was thinking, so she asked: "Brother Yulu, since Uncle Wang said so, he will definitely be able to gather the army, what else do you have to worry about." ”

Bai Yulu glanced at Wei'er, then turned his gaze to Wang Ben and said, "General, if you gather a large army from various passes and cities, I'm afraid it's too late!" Since the army of Feng Chu State has appeared, it will not be too late for Hu Liao's action. ”

Hearing Bai Yulu raise such a question, Wang Ben showed a comforting smile on his face, nodded and said to him: "You are right, if you really want to gather a large army from everywhere, I am afraid that the Bai clan will be finished by then." I have a secret talisman here, you can take it. ”

As he spoke, Wang Ben took out a secret talisman from a black wooden box in the Shuai case and handed it to Bai Yulu and said: "Among the generals of the front army and the rear army, there are children of the Meng clan and the Xiqi clan, and they cannot transfer troops from these two places. The 30,000 elite cavalry of the old man's Chinese army is led by Wang Shinan of our clan, and the deputy commander is Ying Bin, a disciple of the Gong clan. You take this secret talisman to find them, and in the second half of the night tonight, you secretly drive out from the West Mountain Pass and go straight to Xulang Mountain. Subsequently, the old man would secretly transfer the garrisons of several passes and cities, and let them rush to Xulang Mountain for reinforcements within 15 days late. ”

Bai Yulu looked at the small black arrow in his hand, and after listening to Wang Ben's words, he felt a little heavy. He took the secret talisman into his bosom and bowed his hand to Wang Ben: "In this case, let's go to them now and get ready as soon as possible." ”

Wang Ben raised his hand to intercept the two who wanted to leave, and said to them: "Now is not the time, if you go out now, it is very likely that you will be targeted by the people of the Meng clan and the Xiqi clan." Don't worry, the old man will arrange for someone to go and inform them, and you can change your clothes and go again when it gets dark. ”

Only then did Bai Yulu realize that he was still too immature, and Jiang was still old and spicy.

Wang Ben watched Bai Yuhui sit down again, and after hesitating for a moment, he spoke: "Yulu, this incident is aimed at the crown prince Yinghui, so you must protect his safety." The old man expected that Hu Liao would not only send the Black Wolf Legion, but also send a strong man to assassinate the prince. In this way, the safety of the prince is the most important issue. ”

Bai Yulu nodded and said: "At this point, the great general can rest assured, with our patriarch and the five great elders here, even if Hu Liao sends a strong person, he can also guarantee the safety of the prince." ”

Wang Ben shook his head lightly and said, "I'm afraid it's not going to work." If I'm not mistaken, there should be a light flying soldier among your three guards, right? ”

Hearing the word Light Flying Soldier, Bai Yulu was stunned. He immediately thought that in the council hall of the Bai Manor at that time, the old tun chief had said that there were still eight hundred surviving light flying soldiers among the three tun guards, but he didn't understand what this meant. Over the years, Bai Yulu has always felt that their three guards are full of weirdness.

From Wang Ben's mouth, the word light flying soldier shows that he seems to be clear about Santunwei. Thinking of this, Bai Yulu first shook his head and said, "I don't know much about this. ”

After hesitating for a while, he couldn't help but ask: "General, since you know about the light flying soldiers, then the matter of our Santun Guard should also be very clear." Over the years, there has always been a question in my mind, I wonder if the general can help me solve it? ”

Seeing Wang Ben nodded, Bai Yulu continued: "What is the difference between our Santun Guard, and what is the difference between us and the old Bai clan?" ”

As soon as Bai Yulu's words came out, Wang Ben looked at him in surprise. Then he pondered for a while, raised his head and asked, "You don't know, what happened to your three guards?" ”

"I don't know, I asked my mother, but she didn't tell me anything."

A hint of surprise appeared in Wang Ben's eyes, and he asked cautiously, "Who is your father?" ”

"Bai Wuxu"

Hearing this name, Wang Ben glared in surprise, and looked at Bai Yulu with his mouth open. Then he pursed his lips vigorously and nodded: "I see, it's no wonder!" ”

Seeing Wang Ben's expression, Bai Yulu was even more surprised in his heart, and couldn't help asking, "General, what do you mean by this?" ”

Wang Ben smiled helplessly and said to Bai Yulu: "Since the people in your clan didn't tell you, the old man can't say anything." But there's one thing you can remember. Make yourself strong as soon as possible, this is what you must do, and it is also what everyone in your Santunwei hopes and looks forward to. ”

Seeing Bai Yulu stand up and ask questions, Wang Ben raised his hand to stop him and said, "You don't have to ask anymore, even if you know, I can't tell you." It's not that it can't, it's that it's not the time yet. ”

Bai Yulu sat back helplessly, but he was even more curious about the secret of Santun Wei in his heart. At the same time, there is a sense of mystery about his life experience, and he also feels very puzzled.

Looking at Bai Yulu's sad face, Wei'er felt a heartache, and stretched out her jade hand to gently cover the back of Bai Yulu's hand.

Feeling a delicate and smooth little hand, Bai Yulu trembled slightly, and turned his head to look over. Looking at the blush on Wei'er's face and the comfort in her eyes, a warm feeling rose in her heart. From this moment on, Bai Yulu suddenly had an indescribable feeling for Wei'er, and there was an urge to hug the beautiful girl beside her fiercely.

Wang Ben glanced at the little man and woman from time to time in embarrassment, and unconsciously said to Bai Yulu in his heart, this kid is really capable.

After the sky gradually darkened, Bai Yulu and Wei'er changed into Wang Ben's guard armor, and under the guidance of Wang Ben's military commander Sima, they went straight to the cavalry camp of the Chinese army.

After Wang Shinan and Ying Bin saw the secret talisman that Bai Yulu took out, they did not have any doubts, and immediately led their 30,000 elite cavalry, under the cover of night, secretly drove out from the West Mountain Pass, and the large group of soldiers and horses went straight to Xu Lang Mountain frantically.
