The guard nodded in agreement, then rode from front to back and passed the message.

None of the coachmen, guards, and servants complained in private.

At the beginning, when they knew that the team leader was a half-grown man, they were naturally a little unconvinced. But before he had gone 200 miles and encountered the first wave of thieves, the young leader not only hid behind without fear, but calmly dealt with it.

First of all, he was tempted, and when he saw that the bandits on the other side were unwilling to compromise, he directly led people to fight back. Xue Liang's dart was thrown out, stabbing three or five to death, and finally raising the knife to go into battle in person, and the cold posture impressed everyone.

According to the last count, there were a dozen bandits left, and one-third of them were killed by their young stewards......

At this point, no one dares to look down on it anymore, or disobey the yang and the yin.

All the way to the present, whether it is accommodation on the road, or dealing with various bandits, road rages, or even exploiting officials, there is no way to stop the progress of the team!

Later, someone familiar with the inside story said that everyone knew that the team leader was young, but he was an old qualified person who had gone down to the south of the Yangtze River and entered the grassland, that is, the grassland royal court was a character who played sideways!

In this way, it was another night of hurried travel, and at dawn everyone was tired, and the horses were a little weak-legged and angry.

Yonglu finally sent a message to find a sheltered place and rest for the morning.

As a result, as soon as the camp was set up, a group of people came in the distance, two or three hundred people.

"Alert!"

Everyone didn't care about getting tired, drew their swords and bows and arrows, and used the camp carriage as a cover to closely monitor the movement of the team.

Slowly, the group of men and horses approached, and the guards lying next to Yonglu suddenly shouted happily, "Steward, they have a flag with 'Tai' written on it!" ”

Yonglu also saw it, he rubbed his eyes, and to make sure that he was not mistaken, he called out to the two guards, "Go, follow me to see!" Maybe it's my third uncle or eldest brother! ”

The two guards are Chen Zhao's subordinates, and they are the most trustworthy and close to the Tai family.

At this moment, they grabbed Yonglu's arm left and right, and jumped out of the carriage.

In just a moment, the three of them came to the seven or eight feet away from the horse team. Tai Yonglu recognized at a glance that the first person riding on the horse was his grandfather, dressed in a sheepskin jacket, a big hat, pulling the reins with one arm, and a cigarette bag and pot in his belt.

"Grandpa, grandpa!" Tai Yonglu couldn't bear it anymore and rushed forward!

Old Man Tai didn't recognize his grandson, but his voice was familiar.

He jumped off the horse, picked up his grandson, and laughed, "Boy, you really suffered, grandpa didn't even recognize you!" It feels like you're out on a trip and you're getting bigger! ”

Yonglu's nose is pantothenic, no matter how calm and thoughtful he is in front of outsiders, he will always be a child in front of his grandfather, a child who is protected and pampered!

But he looked up at his grandfather's face that was blown red by the wind and frost, and swallowed the sour back.

Grandpa is old, and he is grown!

The old man was still asking, "Who did you come back with?" Your Uncle Chen? Are your mother and Zhuzhu safe? ”

Yonglu shook his head and responded, "Grandpa, this time I led the team to transport grain to the border pass. Uncle Chen and Brother Ruiyang, as well as my mother and sister are all in the south. Uncle Chen bought food one after another and shipped it back one after another, and it is estimated that Yongyue is also behind me, seven or eight days away! ”

The old man was a little surprised, after all, such a big matter of transporting grain, Chen Zhao was actually relieved to hand it over to the two and a half children to lead the team.

But he looked at his grandson, who was obviously much more mature, and felt that Chen Zhao was doing this very well.

"Let's go, let's go to your camp first, and it won't be bad for a while if you have something to say."

The two guards ran back in advance to report the news, and Yonglu took the old man and the others to walk slowly. Behind the old man were the rest of the Tai family, as well as the villagers around him, and those who were familiar with Tai Yonglu all spoke one after another.

Some praised Yonglu's prowess, some asked about the situation in the south of Yonglu, some mentioned that they had killed the Quartet to catch the Rakshasa devils before, and some talked about the situation of the border pass.

Tai Yonglu's heart was hot and warm when he heard it, even if he was still on the road now, but when his family came, it was equivalent to going home.

His unconscious back was loosened by three points, and he was not as stubborn as Fang Cai.

The old man patted his grandson on the shoulder, a little distressed, but still didn't say anything.

The small camp suddenly had two or three hundred more people, which was really lively.

The scope of the conversation also spread from a few people to the entire camp, and for a while it was really like thousands of ducks making noise, and even the north wind that liked to listen to the corner of the wall covered their ears and ran!

Old Man Tai called out to the team leaders in several teams, including Tai Jizu, Tai Jisheng, Zhang Tieniu, etc., and the things that need to be studied are not complicated.

Their task in rushing over was to help transport grain, and now that they have received Yonglu, they are considered to have completed part of it, and they will continue to pick up Yongyue and even the rest of the Chen family's grain transportation team.

In the end, Tai Jisheng took a hundred people to help the grain transportation team continue to the border pass. There are still about 300 miles, and if everything goes well on the road, it will be there in five days.

And at this time, Old Man Tai led people to continue south, and he should also be able to receive Tai Yongyue.

Everyone agreed, and immediately after eating, they set out.

Because of the new helpers joining, everyone in the original team nested in the carriage and took a nap, so that they could have a good rest without delaying the journey.

After walking around, it took five days for the grain transport team to arrive at the border town.

The news was sent to the border army, and the personal guards around He Xiong rushed to take over.

Yonglu often went in and out of the barracks, and he was familiar with them, greeting them with a smile.

Several of the guards were happy, and one of them said to Tai Yonglu, "Little brother, General He is discussing official business with the general, and has asked us to come over and take over the grain. General He said that the handover is over, please ask the little brother to come over, the general has something to say. ”

Another guard couldn't help but praise, "In the past few days, your eldest brother Yong'an has been simply crazy, and his combat exploits are almost catching up with the Sixth Highness." Your old man also led people to kill all the Rakshasa devils who fled to the Guannei, and now you have led the team to transport military rations back. General He has always said that your family was born to be a member of our border army, and the military merits together are enough to seal a general! ”

"Yes," the rest of the guards also nodded, "It's a time when the army is short of food, and it's so timely that you're back." ”

Tai Yonglu was young in the end, and he listened to it flutteringly, but he still remembered a few words of modesty.

"My grandfather is old, my eldest brother is in danger, and they have more credit, I just took the convoy and killed a few mountain bandits."

Several guards came from this time, how could they not understand the contradictions and smugness of the young man, they all laughed, and soon they were busy handing over the food.

After He Xiong finished discussing military affairs with the general, he couldn't wait to come out to visit, and just happened to greet Yonglu, he smiled and patted Yonglu's shoulder, jokingly, "Oh, our little steward who sent food in time for rain is here!" ”

Everyone laughed, and Yonglu blushed and scratched the back of his head.

"Let's go, go in and sit, the general is waiting for you to speak."
