Wu Yuan quickly entered the role, and after thinking for a while, he looked up and asked Wu Nian, "How many of you are there?" ”

He knew that Wu Nian was very popular, but killing the general flag was a capital crime after all. The people under Wu Nian's command may not be able to risk all their lives to do it.

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Tie Niu and Zhang Sheng, thinking. "These two must count."

"Plus I have five people."

Wu Nian shook his head as he spoke, and said, "We don't have any chance in the front, unless we have fifty people, we can storm Chengfu and kill Chenggao." ”

"We've got to find a chance."

"In another month, it's the end of the year." Wu Yuan sneered, moved his body to make his stomach more comfortable, and then raised his head and said, "Every year on the third day of the new year." Cheng Gao would take his wife to Nianshan Fort in the north to visit his parents-in-law. ”

Nianshan Fort is not far from here, only thirty miles of mountain road. It belongs to the same thousand households as Beishan Fort.

Military families rarely marry women from civilian families. Cheng Gao's wife is from Nianshan Fort, who is also a military household.

Wu Nian's eyes lit up, this is a good piece of information. He asked a little impatiently, "How many people will he take?" ”

"The private soldiers will all go with them, plus some house slaves and coachmen, and there will be no more than twenty people." Wu Yuan sold Cheng Gao in one go, and his tone contained excitement.

The pleasure of revenge made him feel the ultimate happiness. Even the wound on his back doesn't seem to hurt so much.

Tie Niu and Zhang Sheng both frowned, even if they were tall, there were only twenty people.

There are only six of them plus Wu Yuan.

It's hard to say whether you can succeed or not.

"Lord Xiaoqi. Let's take all the recruits with us. Only when you bring enough people can you be foolproof. Zhang Sheng raised his head and said.

Wu Nian shook his head and said decisively: "The time they have followed me is too short, and they are not very reliable. This is a capital offense. We can't take any chances. ”

"That's right. It is better to have fewer people than to find unreliable people. Wu Yuan also nodded and said.

"That's just the six of us!!" Zhang Sheng hesitated.

Wu Nian also felt that six people were too few, so he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Wu Yuan and said, "Weren't you the leader of the family soldiers before?" Can you bring in a few moles? ”

"No way. These soldiers were all born to the family of slaves and maids, and they were very loyal to the master's family. They don't have my guts. ”

Wu Yuan shook his head categorically.

"Then it's just the six of us. If we are surprised by an ambush, we have a good chance of winning. Wu Nian was a little regretful, and after thinking about it for a while, he decided to do it.

There are many dreams at night.

Cheng Gao, this guy is not dead, like a man on his back, and he can't sleep at night.

"Okay." Wu Yuan nodded without hesitation.

Now that the agreement has been made, there is no need to stay here longer. Wu Nian did not forget his original intention of visiting the patient, and left live chickens and wine. took Tie Niu and Zhang Sheng back to Beishan Fort and entered the bedroom of the Wu family's small courtyard to rest.

His small bedroom, which used to house five people, is now only the three of them, and it is much more spacious.

Next.

"Brother, Tie Niu, Zhang Sheng, it's time to eat."

The three big men slept very deeply, until Liu Xiang shouted outside the house to eat. The three of them got up together, washed up, and went to the kitchen to eat.

"Ma'am." Tie Niu and Zhang Sheng are very well-behaved, and they first hugged their fists and saluted Liu Xiang.

Liu Xiang hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I've said it many times, you can just call me Liu Xiang." It's embarrassing to call me Madame. ”

In fact, she has a sweet heart in her heart.

Mrs. Xiaoqi.

There are only thirteen officials in this Beishan Fort, and there are only thirteen official wives. She's one of them.

This is all a status earned by my brother.

Eating at a square table, there is a plate of pickles on the table, a big bowl of rice and an egg for each person.

The four of them were on their own side, and Liu Xiang sat next to Wu Nian. She peeled the eggs and put them on Wu Nian's bowl.

Wu Nian has already said that she has said many times that she doesn't need to take care of me so carefully. But Liu Xiang just didn't listen, she liked her brother, and she liked it to the core.

The four of them had breakfast, and the big men walked away with their legs up, leaving Liu Xiang to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.

Today is not a day to practice, but if Wu Nian has nothing to do, he will run. He took Tie Niu and Zhang Sheng out of Beishan Fort, first walked and digested breakfast, and then ran around Beishan Fort five times before returning to his small courtyard sweating.

It's already three days old at this point.

"Hey. Off. As soon as Wu Nian crossed the threshold, he heard someone calling him. When I looked back, it turned out to be Li Kun, the general banner.

I saw that he was happy and brought a lot of guys.

A horse, some house slaves with gongs and drums.

Wu Nian is also an old military household, and he immediately realized it. His eyes lit up, and he hurriedly greeted Tie Niu and Zhang Sheng, and said happily: "Lord Zongqi." Is my appointment paperwork down? ”

Although he was appointed to the small flag, the accuracy is nine out of nine.

However, if the appointment document of the imperial court has not been handed down, this matter may change. But when the court documents come down, it is a real hammer.

"It's down, it's down. This is an official document, a sealed letter, and Li Ding's armor has been changed, and it's yours too. ”

Li Kun looked happy, and turned his head to give the house slave a look. Immediately several house slaves came up with armor, knives, and a plate with seals and papers.

"It's really a big deal." Wu Nian hurriedly bent down and saluted.

This thing was supposed to be a high thing. He is a small banner under Cheng Gao, not a subordinate of Li Kun.

Tie Niu and Zhang Sheng stepped forward with great discernment, took the armor, knives, and plates, and sent them into the small courtyard.

"Lord Xiaoqi. Go put on your armor and hang up your saber. Roll over your horse and take a walk. Li Kun pointed to the horse he brought and said with a smile.

According to unwritten rules.

Once the people in Beishan Fort become officials, or are promoted, they have to cross the streets and let all the military families come to see.

This symbolizes that Wu Nian has officially stepped into the ruling class.

Wu Nian is not a hypocritical person, let's follow the customs.

"Thank you, Lord Banner." Wu Nian thanked him, and then went back to his small courtyard, and with the help of Tie Niu and Zhang Sheng, he put on the armor that weighed dozens of catties.

Wu Nian, who was wearing armor, felt that his whole body was sinking, and he moved his body very uncomfortably. This is a general, and it also needs to have a strong capital.

Otherwise, wearing such heavy armor, let alone cutting people, it would be very difficult to even move.

Fortunately, Wu Nian has been strong after this period of exercise. After he got used to it, he took a step, moved to the side of the war horse very easily, stepped on the stirrup, and turned over the horse vigorously.

It was a black horse, looking very sturdy, but it was actually a colt pulling a cart.

This horse should have been raised by a hundred households, temporarily borrowed for use, and was not issued to him by the imperial court.

Immediately, Tie Niu came up to lead the horse, and Zhang Sheng and the soldiers under Wu Nian's command who heard the news followed behind the horse. Li Kun's house slaves followed further behind with gongs and preachers, forming a small team, and marched across the streets in this Beishan Fort.

The lively sound attracted the military households in the hundreds of households, who came out of their homes one after another to watch.

There was a lot of discussion, and there was a lot of noise.
