Soon after Guan Yueyue left the palace, a black-robed young general hurriedly ran to the hall, saw that there was dried meat on Zhu Chong's table, picked it up and ate it.

"Eat, eat, eat, you know to eat, have the soldiers and horses been tidied up?" Zhu Chong glared at the black-robed young general fiercely, and said angrily.

The black-robed general is Zhu Chong's son, Zhu Chi, the son of the king of Pingnan.

"Dad, don't worry, the entire Yunzhou army has been assembled and is on standby outside the city, ready to set off at any time." Zhu Chi said, glancing at the jerky in his hand in surprise, "Where did this jerky come from, it's quite delicious!" ”

Zhu Chong nodded and said, "The order goes down, the grain transport team will set off immediately, and the army will rest for a day and rush to Shahe Pass tomorrow." ”

"Got it." Zhu Chi said as he stuffed jerky into his mouth, not meaning to give an order at all.

Seeing that a box of dried meat was eaten by Zhu Chi by a third, Zhu Chong suddenly became anxious, kicked Zhu Chi's buttocks, and said angrily: "Don't hurry up yet!" ”

Zhu Chi glanced at Zhu Chong aggrievedly, and while Zhu Chong was not paying attention, he suddenly picked up the dried meat on the table and ran out.

When Zhu Chong reacted, Zhu Chi had already run away.

"This little rabbit cub, wait for him to come back and see how this king cleans him up!" Zhu Chong gritted his teeth in anger, pointed in the direction Zhu Chi left and scolded angrily.

"Okay, lord, aren't there still several boxes? When you go to Shaheguan this time, you must be careful! Princess Pingnan said.

Hearing the princess mention Shahe Pass, Zhu Chong's expression suddenly became serious, and said: "Madame, don't worry, this king knows in her heart, and Madame will guard this Yunzhou City for this king with peace of mind, and wait for this king to come back." ”

"By the way, if there is a real fight, the soldiers are in chaos, you must watch Jing'er, this girl, don't let her run around."

……

Soon, Guan Yueyue returned to the inn, and at this time Wangcai had already settled down with the caravan's people.

"Miss Yueyue, have you seen King Pingnan? I just heard from the guy at the inn that there is going to be a war soon, what's going on? Wangcai hurriedly asked.

Guan Yueyue did not hide it either, and told the news she got from King Pingnan.

When they heard that the barbarians might invade Daqian, many people showed frightened expressions on their faces, especially those shopping guides who came with Guan Yueyue.

They are all people living around Wudu City, and they are at most harassed by bandits on weekdays, and they have never experienced war, and when they hear that there is going to be a war, they are all scared.

The dart masters are okay, after all, they are basically retired veterans, and fighting is all too familiar to them.

"So what do we do? Want to retreat? If there is a real war, the remaining brothers may not be enough to protect so many goods. Wangcai said with a frown.

There were only more than 250 people left in the 300 dart divisions that set out from Haoyue Manor at this time, and if the barbarians entered Yunzhou City, this number of people would not be enough to protect the goods, and even the lives of the caravan personnel could not be guaranteed.

Guan Yueyue shook her head and said, "If we retreat when we encounter such a little difficulty, what will the lord think of us?" Not only will we not retreat, but we will also close the store and open for business as soon as possible! ”

"Wealth is in danger, once the war starts, many chambers of commerce may withdraw from Yunzhou, this is a good time for our Haoyue Manor to gain a firm foothold in Yunzhou, we can take advantage of the gap between other chambers of commerce to withdraw from Yunzhou and quickly occupy the market."

"Besides, the soldiers of Yunzhou are strong and strong, I believe that King Pingnan will not let the barbarians invade Yunzhou."

Listening to Guan Yueyue's words, Wangcai nodded thoughtfully and said: "This is also true, although I have never fought with the barbarians, but I heard from my comrades in the south that the barbarians are not at the same level in combat effectiveness compared to the Huns, and presumably the barbarians will not be the opponents of the Yunzhou soldiers." ”

"I'll send someone to report the situation here to the lord, and ask the lord to send us a reinforcement force, so that even if Yunzhou City is broken, we will have the ability to protect ourselves."

The task of the dart master is to protect the goods and Guan Yueyue and others, and Guan Yueyue, the shopkeeper, is in charge of major matters, since Guan Yueyue has decided to stay, Wangcai naturally has no opinion.

Guan Yueyue looked at the worried shopping guides on the side, and said with a smile: "Sisters, I won't tell you anything, I'm also scared, but the lord gave us this opportunity, and we must muster up the courage to complete the task assigned to us by the lord." ”

"If it weren't for the lord, would we be able to eat and clothe us? Now is the time for us to repay the lord, who wants to stay with me? ”

"I'll stay!"

"I'll stay too!"

"And me."

As soon as Guan Yueyue's words came out, the eyes of the shopping guides showed a determined look.

Yes, they were afraid of death, but they were also afraid of starvation, because it was so unpleasant.

To be grateful, it was Yu Hao who let them eat their stomachs and live a good life, Guan Yueyue was right, this is a great time for them to repay Yu Hao!

In their hearts, the moment Yu Hao brought them into Haoyue Manor, their lives were Yu Hao's.

As long as they can repay Yu Hao's great kindness, even if they die, they will not complain!

Seeing that her words worked, Guan Yueyue laughed happily.

After all, if she wants to open a store, it is not enough for her to be alone, and she is really afraid that these shopping guides will run away in fear.

Fortunately, these shopping guides are loyal to Hao, and when Guan Yueyue mentioned Yu Hao, their eyes became different.

"In that case, let's rest for a day, and tomorrow I will find a suitable storefront, and strive to open our Haoyue store before the war!"

……

A hundred miles south of Shahe Pass, the barbarian camp, in the king's account.

Hundreds of barbarian generals gathered here, some of them ten feet tall and as strong as oxen; Some have fleshy faces and sharp eyes; There are also violent and wanton, hiding knives in their smiles.

The people present were all extremely vicious and blood-drinking, but such a group of people were looking at the young woman wearing the crown in front of them with adoration on their faces.

The woman was only in her early twenties, her wheat-colored skin was delicate and smooth, her hot body made her blood run high, her bright eyes were full of fanaticism and murder, and her long brown-red hair was tied up in a high ponytail.

Only the key parts of the body are covered with animal skins, the sexy vest line is very charming, a pair of straight long legs dangling in front of everyone's eyes, and the whole body is covered with decorations made of bones, wild and uninhibited and beautiful at the same time.

No one would have thought that such an exotic young woman would be Alina, the barbarian queen who had just unified the barbarians!

At this moment, a person slowly walked into the king's tent, it was Zhuo Erlin, who had just escaped from Wudu City a few days ago.

When Zhuo Erlin saw Alina, the lustful color in his eyes flashed, and he showed a kind smile, and said, "Great Queen Alina, your most loyal subordinate has returned, and this time, I have brought you a unique gift from Daqian. ”

Zhuo Erlin said, reaching into his arms and slowly taking out a box, in which lay a crystal clear water jade.
