Chapter 366: The Hour Has Come

At the foot of the Tien Shan Mountains!

This is still in the Changbai Mountain boundary, located in the extreme north, although the climate of Liaodong has also begun to change towards spring, but here is still a cold storm and snow howling, the ice between the heaven and earth can almost freeze people, and in that vast snow white, there are countless wooden boxes piled up into mountains, standing impressively. ¤八¤八¤Read¤Book,☆←o

These wooden boxes are neatly stacked together, and at a glance, there are thousands of them, and you can't even see the edge at a glance, and the first wooden boxes that have been transported have been covered with snow, which is particularly magnificent.

In these wooden boxes are the 12 million taels of gold!

At this moment, around these wooden boxes, guarding the two thousand Dongchang soldiers brought over by Lin Song, they had already changed into Dongchang's iconic flying fish suits, and their bodies were also covered with blood-red daze, the embroidered spring knife was straddling the waist, and everyone stood against the wind and snow, with an indescribable sense of hideousness.

At the front of these countless wooden boxes, a part of the soldiers, under the command of Lin Song, were busy loading the boxes into the carriage transported from Tuzhou City, and they were in full swing.

Even, Lin Song personally went up to help.

Originally, Dongchang prepared a hundred carriages here, but now it is two hundred taels or three hundred carriages brought from Tuzhou to transport these gold, and it also takes two trips, and the time is limited, so they dare not have any slack!

"Everyone work hard, this time I go back to Chang'an, and the overseer will definitely reward everyone!"

"My Dongchang has also made an immortal contribution to the Great Wei Dynasty!"

"Come on!"

Lin Song shouted loudly while carrying the heavy wooden box and putting it on the carriage that pulled the goods.

"Yes!"

The faces of many servants were full of heat, and even sweat was oozing from their foreheads, and they were even more busy despite the pain caused by the frostbite on their hands and faces!

Since the establishment of Dongchang, they are all called eagle dogs and traitors by the people of the world, and now, after the overthrow of the original Emperor Liang and the support of the new emperor, Dongchang controls the government of the world, and their identity is shameless by the people of the world!

Although they are treated with respect everywhere, they have never been truly respected!

This time, if they can transport the Great Zhou Guozang back to Chang'an, they will definitely be able to bring a new page to the Great Wei Dynasty and bring a richer life to the people of the whole world!

They believe that from now on, Dongchang will no longer be the former Dongchang, and they will truly and dignified stand at the peak of the Great Wei Dynasty!

Disrespect is reverence, and there is reverence!

So, people do almost anything!

......

Outside Shanhaiguan, three miles away!

The sun is shining, the sky is cold, and the elite cavalry of the 100,000 Guanlong garrison is neatly arranged on the endless vast land.

And at the forefront, Hu Lingyu was wearing black armor, sitting on horseback, and his eyes were also staring at the Shanhaiguan Pass that was faintly visible in the distance, as well as the Liaodong farther away, and the blue sky!

He lived up to the expectations of the overseer and arrived at Shanhaiguan as promised, and now, he only needs to wait for Su Shan's final order, once he enters the customs, and goes to Tuzhou Port to sit in support!

His gaze was extraordinarily hot, there was a kind of anticipation, and something called hot blood was rising!

"Report to the General!"

In this deep and depressed area, a black war horse galloped in the distance, and a spy who had been sent out before galloped over, he quickly came to Hu Lingyu, turned over and dismounted, knelt on the ground, and said in a deep voice,

"A mile ahead, I found the scouts of the defenders of Shanhaiguan, they seem to have noticed something abnormal, and they are probing in our direction, and I ask the general to decide!"

"The defenders of Shanhaiguan have noticed us?"

When Hu Lingyu heard this, his face showed a thick solemnity, and there was a trace of worry. ∈ eight, ∈ eight, ∈ reading, ∈ book, 2∞3↓o

Along the way, they have been as careful as possible to prevent people along the way from discovering the clues, but these 100,000 cavalry are too powerful, no matter what, it is impossible for all of them to breathe!

Now that they are near Shanhaiguan, they are aware that they have done a good job!

Among them, thanks to the fact that they are all cavalry, they are extremely fast!

But now, I can't hide it for much longer!

"Send someone over to stop us, try to delay the time for them to find us, and if necessary, you can kill someone!"

Hu Lingyu took a deep breath and said coldly.

The Guanlong garrison and the Liaodong garrison both belong to the Great Wei soldiers and horses, and it stands to reason that they should not kill each other, but at such a critical time, Hu Lingyu can't take too much care of it!

At this time, he will follow Su Shan's set!

For the sake of the big picture, you can do whatever it takes!

Even if it's a comrade!

"Yes!"

The scout got the order, and his face also showed a thick solemnity, as well as sharpness, and he had already turned over on his horse after the words fell, and then galloped away in the wind and snow in the distance!

The figure of the scout gradually became smaller in the field of vision, shrinking into black spots, Hu Lingyu looked up in the direction of Tuzhou Port, and the look on his face became more solemn.

He said to himself,

"Overseer, you have to hurry up, Hu won't be hiding here for long!"

"If we are discovered by the defenders of Shanhaiguan before you are ready, when the time comes, this Yuan Tianzhi may strike first!"

......

The sun is gradually going down, the night is deep, the cold wind between the heaven and the earth is getting colder and colder, Tuzhou Port, a lot of Tuzhou soldiers are guarding around, the torches are burning, and the entire Tuzhou Port is shining like day!

There is still a bloody smell of fighting in the air during the day, many soldiers are solemn, and the evil atmosphere between heaven and earth is also extraordinarily dignified, and the sad meaning is even more depressing.

At the same time, the carriages full of wooden boxes also drove from the direction of the Tianshan Mountains, and countless Dongchang guards were around them, their eyes were very sharp, and they slowly converged along the bluestone road of the port, towards the loading and unloading place!

In the place of loading and unloading, there are also a lot of people in the East Factory, who are working hard to carry all the wooden boxes down and neatly place them in the port, although they are tired, but still carry carefully!

These defenders around are all Tuzhou troops, not from Dongchang, and now this box is loaded with gold, and it is also hidden, no one wants to be exposed because of a mistake that causes the box to fall to the ground and break!

At this time, Su Shan, Xiao Yu'er and the others also left the guard tower, and stared at all this near the port, the two of them, as well as those Dongchang servants behind them, were also solemn and Lingran!

Gold has entered Tuzhou Port one after another, and next, it is the most critical moment!

Drive!

Everyone stared nervously here for a long time, and there was a low and rapid sound of horses' hooves outside the port, and after a while, the man rushed to the vicinity of Su Shan, turned over and dismounted, knelt on the ground, and said in a low voice,

"Overseer, there is also news from the North Sea outside the Shanhai Pass!"

"Say!"

Su Shan turned around slightly, his eyes looked unusually shining in the night, and his gaze staring at the servant was also extremely solemn.

"The Guanlong garrison, 100,000 elite cavalry, has been stationed outside Shanhaiguan, just waiting for the order of the governor, you can knock into Liaodong, from Shanhaiguan all the way to Tuzhou Port, it only takes two hours!"

"Hu Lingyu said it himself, waiting for the order of the overseer!"

"The flying pigeon in the North Sea passed the book, and ten grain ships will officially enter the waters of Liaodong tomorrow, and they will be able to arrive at Tuzhou Port at the same time, and they can load goods on board the ship!"

After speaking, the officer lowered his head and waited for Su Shan's further orders!

"A moment?"

Su Shan's brows furrowed slightly, turned his head to look at Xiao Yu'er, and asked in a low voice,

"In a moment, can all the gold be delivered?"

"Don't worry, if there are no accidents, it's no problem at all, the second convoy has started one after another, and it should be completely over before the hour!"

Xiao Yu'er nodded slightly, and the solemnity on her face was also unusually rich.

"That's good. ”

Su Shan turned to look at the kneeling messenger and said,

"The flying pigeon passed the book to Beihai, ten grain ships, as planned to enter Liaodong normally, at the end of the hour, our family is waiting for them in this Tuzhou port, and the goods will be shipped on time!"

"Yes!"

The officer bowed his hand slightly, and suddenly rose, and a moment later, the sound of horses' hooves hurried away, and his figure disappeared into the endless night.

"Little Yu'er!"

After being silent for a moment, Su Shan turned around again and looked at Xiao Yu'er, he said in a low voice,

"After the grain ship enters the sea area of Liaodong, such a big movement will definitely alarm the towns along the way, you estimate for our family, how long will it take for this news to spread from the coast to the camp in Liaodong at the earliest!"

"The slave has already calculated, it will take three hours at the earliest, that is to say, when the time comes, Yuan Tianzhi will definitely get the news!"

Xiao Yu'er had already been prepared, and said in a deep voice,

"When the time comes, he will also find out that the one he sent over to join the army, the news that he was detained by us, he will definitely be suspicious, and the slave guesses that he will send someone to inquire about the news first, and then bring the troops over!"

"From Liaodong Daying to Tuzhou Port, if you estimate it according to the fastest speed of the army, and then count the back and forth of his inquiry news, it will take about an hour, that is to say, he will come to Tuzhou Port in the middle of the hour!"

"It's time for the hour!"

Su Shan nodded slightly, his brows furrowed more and more solemnly, and said,

"Then let Hu Lingyu's 100,000 cavalry go to Tuzhou Port at the same time as him to deter him, you fly the pigeon to pass the book to Hu Lingyu, let him leave at the end of the hour, at the beginning of the time, to Tuzhou Port three miles away!"

"Obey our orders!"

"Yes!"

Xiao Yu'er suddenly gave up her hand and quickly went down to arrange.

The night is getting thicker and thicker, and the cold wind between heaven and earth is becoming more urgent than in the daytime, Su Shan stood in front of the port, his eyes were cold and worried, looking at the busy people, his heart felt a little heavy.

He was more of an impassioned excited, though!

Tomorrow, starting from the time of the morning to the time of the twilight, a total of six hours, he will really face the defenders of Liaodong, face the veteran who has been stationed in Liaodong for decades, Yuan Tianzhi, and give Dongchang time to load gold and transport grain!

He didn't know if all his planning was useful, but he knew that he had done his best!

The result of everything depends on these six hours!

Let's see if Yuan Tianzhi dares to really do it!

"Now that it's over, there's only one way to go!"

After a long time, Su Shan let out a long breath, and a thick determination flashed in his pupils, he put his hands behind his back, looked up at the stars gradually rising in the sky, and said with a smile to himself,

"Yuan Tianzhi, if you don't move, everything is fine with you and me, Liaodong is still your Yuan Tianzhi's Liaodong!"

"If you don't measure yourself, our family will let Liaodong go out and make a big mess, and we will also take your head to ensure that the 12 million taels of gold will leave the port smoothly!"

The voice of self-talk fell, and a cold wind howled, and Su Shan's white hair looked particularly flamboyant in the night!

The figure stood between the harbors, reflected with thousands of torches, and it was also full of pride!

He's ready for tomorrow!

......

Whoa!

Whoa!

Time passed slowly, the stars and the bright and cold moon moved above the night sky, the wind became more and more rapid, and the roar between heaven and earth was transmitted like the roar of a wild beast, and the cold meaning was stronger.

The servants of the East Factory are still busy transporting gold, and with the passage of time, the second fleet has returned one after another, and the wooden boxes stacked at the port have become a mountain!

Su Shan never left the place, he stood quietly in this port, quietly blending with the night, quietly watching all this, and proceeding peacefully!

And after Xiao Yu'er arranged the message with the Guanlong garrison, she had already returned to his side, and she also stood with her head down, but her face was a little calm.

She has always had an almost blind admiration for Su Shan, and she believes that Su Shan has been planning for so long and calculating so much, and she will definitely be safe and sound tomorrow!

What if something happens?

She is ready to do her best, she will follow Su Shan, and at all costs, take Yuan Tianzhi's head!

At that time, the Liaodong army will be leaderless, and the Guanlong cavalry, under the command of Hu Lingyu, can still stop their pace, and the gold can still be transported away!

It's just that the price is a complete chaos in Liaodong!

Chaos or not, Xiao Yuer never took it to heart, all she cared about was the person in front of her, this person who could be calm and safe no matter what she faced!

As long as the person is okay, she is not worried!

Sand, sand, sand!

Beside the two of them, there was a precise hourglass, at some point, it had been flipped over, and the fine sand inside slowly slid down, representing the passage of time.

Under this waiting, time passed quietly.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly, there was a crisp clicking sound at the bottom of the hourglass, and all the sand and gravel had fallen into the void, and at this time, in the sky, above the vast sea, a fiery red light was gradually revealed!

The dazzling light gradually rose from the vast and traceless sea level, the white of the fish belly between the sky was gradually dispelled, and a round of red sun, also slowly, revealed the edge.

At this moment, it was as if the entire sea surface was on fire.

"Overseer, the time has come!"

The soldier who was in charge of staring at the hourglass on the side came to Su Shan's side and reported in a low voice.

"The hour has come!"

Su Shan took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked at the vast and traceless sea.

Woo!

The melodious and low sound of the horn, with endless desolation and grandeur, slowly came from above the sea level, and then, there were several huge shadows covering the sky and the sun, which were gradually revealed, and the huge sails were waving and rotating on the deck, and those ship shadows were slowly approaching Tuzhou Port!

"Ready to load!"

Su Shan took a deep breath, his voice cold and flat.

"Load!"

One of the hundred households behind him received the order, took two steps forward quickly, and roared loudly.

At this moment, the four thousand Dongchang soldiers waiting above the port all raised their heads at the same time, and their eyes looked at the sea level with burning eyes!

Everything will begin eventually!11
