Chapter 11: The Strangeness of Yuzhou City
Hearing this, Ye Yan was stunned, he really didn't know much about the system of the ancient military camp, thinking of the children who were still training, he couldn't help but ask.
"Is there any other way to make food?"
The old soldiers looked at each other, they knew that the soldiers in their camp were still training, and they couldn't bear it, so they gave a compromise solution.
"The strategist can be seconded, as long as he guarantees that the corresponding food will be returned when the grain is ordered tomorrow, such as the prey hunted by his own soldiers, although this law violates military regulations, but the grain officer will turn a blind eye to the situation he understands."
Ye Yan nodded clearly, looking at the bright moonlight outside the barracks, thinking that this group of stinky boys should be very happy to drink a bowl of steaming broth when they come back.
"Let's make soup, cook a hundred catties of broth, and tomorrow I will ask the soldiers to send the corresponding meat."
Several old people received the order and began to make a fire to cook.
In the room on the second floor of an inn in Yuzhou City, Zhao Haoyi and several henchmen were discussing.
Zhao Haoyi held the teacup and looked at the bright moon in the sky through the window.
In the past two days of secretly exploring and investigating, he has always been a little restless, and his sensitivity to the battlefield and the city he always feel give him a strange calm.
Although there are a large number of soldiers patrolling the streets, and the city gates are heavily guarded, the people here feel too weird.
These people did not have the slightest hint of panic and uneasiness about the Qi army outside the city. On the contrary, there is a kind of indifference that looks at death as home.
Zhao Haoyi had learned about the battle three years ago, tens of thousands of people in Yuzhou City fought to the death, and at that time he was still learning the law of soldiers in the Qin State, and he sighed for a long time when he heard about this battle.
"Tell me, what did you find today?"
The four people sitting around looked at each other, and immediately the young guard spoke first: "There is no clue yet, we have knocked on the side of the city and knocked on the people in the city, and these people all said that they have not seen those three people." ”
After the young guard finished speaking, the middle-aged man sitting on Zhao Haoyi's left side said.
"General, could it be that we guessed wrong, these three people did not enter the city but went directly north to other cities?"
Zhao Haoyi frowned, thinking: "Impossible, the strange short-haired young man was hit by an arrow in his left shoulder at that time, and he must enter the city to recuperate, besides, except for those people in northern Xinjiang who fled with dry food,
These three people don't have any food at all, and the closest city in Yuzhou to Northern Xinjiang is more than a thousand miles, and these people will definitely enter Yuzhou. ”
The four soldiers nodded in contemplation, and suddenly another middle-aged man with a beard among the four hesitated: "Although the subordinates did not inquire about the traces of those three people, they still found a suspicious thing in the city. ”
Zhao Haoyi heard the teacup in his hand and said, "What's the matter?"
"The subordinates have never seen old people, children and women in the city, so the subordinates feel a little suspicious."
When Zhao Haoyi heard this, the teacup slammed down, stood up and stared at him: "This is true?"
The bearded man was taken aback, and quickly got up and knelt down on one knee: "What the subordinates said is true." ”
Zhao Haoyi understood in his heart, what was that weird, that feeling of restlessness.
This is a military city, where are the people, all the soldiers of the northern frontier.
Knowing this, Zhao Haoyi knew that his people had been monitored from the moment they entered Yuzhou, maybe the moment they ran into the patrol army, his group had already been recognized, and he was probably going to see what they were going to do when they led them into the city.
"Let the soldiers stop their actions and find a way to escape from Yuzhou overnight."
The four of them looked at Zhao Haoyi's solemn expression and seemed to understand something, and they didn't dare to hesitate to take their fists out of the room.
Zhao Haoyi slowly walked to the window of the room, leaning over to look at the brightly lit streets, and some dilapidated houses murmuring.
"The whole city is full of soldiers, the female monarch of Northern Xinjiang is so bold, just a woman has such courage, I am afraid that Northern Xinjiang will not perish easily."
At the same time, in Liu Xiong's small courtyard, the old man was holding a military book in his hand, listening to Shen Qing's report in a big coat.
"General, that group of soldiers seems to be aware of it, and they heard a report from the soldiers who are monitoring them, and this group of people is preparing to leave the city overnight?"
The old man put down the book, and the candlelight shone on his unfazed old face.
"Close the Internet café and ask them about the purpose of finding the little monk."
When Shen Qing heard this, he suddenly heard the voice of the old man when he turned to leave: "Remember that the leader is disabled, but you must stay alive." ”
Shen Qing seemed to understand what the old man meant, nodded and left quickly.
When Shen Qing left, the old man was smiling, as if he had thought of something happy.
At this time, Ye Yan and the others, who did not know what was happening in the city, were sitting around the bonfire waiting for the soldiers who were training.
Ye Yan sat between Zhang Jiu and Shikong, listening to the mutual ridicule of the two.
"Bald donkey, I made a mistake in that move just now, why did you win? If you hadn't disturbed someone's thinking, somebody would have been in that place?,"
A sneer appeared on Shikong's handsome and bewitching face, "Amitabha, soldiers are not tired of cheating, doesn't Master Zhang even understand this truth as a captain of the first battalion?"
"Uncle Nine, master, the soldiers are about to return to the camp, you two don't say a word, let the soldiers see what majesty you have like this."
Zhang Jiu snorted coldly: "Majestic? Whoever dares to gossip about so-and-so, go up and give him a meal to ensure that he is obedient. ”
As a soldier, Zhang Jiu has always believed that fists are the last word.
Shi Kong secretly cursed the reckless man in his heart, and then stopped paying attention to him.
Seeing that there was no one to fight, Zhang Jiu was no longer angry, and turned around and drank a bowl of broth in the pot.
After a short time, the tired and scattered teenagers helped each other back to the camp.
Seeing them return to the camp, Ye Yan stood up and came to the side of Ge Dongtian, who was the leader, and Zhang Jiu Shikong also got up and walked over.
Looking at this group of boys whose legs were trembling a little, Ye Yan asked with a satisfied face, "Stinky boys, how do you feel?"
The teenagers gritted their teeth and said in a trembling voice: "Hui Counselor, we are fine!" ”
Ye Yan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Very good?" Do you seem to be in good spirits?"
When Ge Dongtian heard Ye Yan's words, his heart jumped violently: "No, it's so late, won't the strategist let us dance again, right?"
Ye Yan seemed to know what the teenagers were thinking, and said with a smile: "Okay, I won't practice tonight, I will prepare a broth for you to replenish your strength, go back to the barracks to sleep after eating, and continue tomorrow morning." ”
When the soldiers heard that there was food, they all looked incredulous, they understood the rules of the army, and after the bend meal, the stove room would not be fired, and they thought that they would sleep hungry tonight, but they didn't expect the strategists to prepare food for them.
The hearts of the young people warmed slightly, and they said in unison: "The strategist is wise! ”
Ye Yan waved his hand: "Okay, stinky boys, let's eat, have a good rest, after training tomorrow morning, I will take you to fish and strive to return the food to the stove room before the sunset." ”
