In the valley near Yujia Mountain, a small group of light cavalry wearing raincoats were patrolling in the rain.
Ever since a mysterious person came to the captain's house, the captain's requirements for patrols inside and outside the city have become much stricter.
Therefore, even if it rained heavily today, this team of light cavalry did not dare to fool them easily. However, when they reached the junction of the two mountains, everyone could clearly hear the sound of horse hooves in front of them. In an instant, this team of light cavalry only immediately Be alert.
At this moment, only some people unconsciously picked up the crossbows in their hands, and some people took out the sabers in their hands. They just waited for the unknown intruder to arrive, and then gave him a fatal blow.
However, as the intruder approached, amid the rain and the dim lights of the patrollers, all they could clearly see was a skinny horse in front of them. At the same time, on top of the skinny horse, there was The heavy object was lifted directly from the horse's back.
Therefore, this group of people only stopped the thin horse first. As they intercepted the thin horse, they discovered that there was only a Chen flag behind the thin horse.
This flag was clearly the symbol of one of their own. The group of people did not hesitate any longer and saw one of the horses leading the way towards the place where the heavy object landed. But when the light cavalry got closer and dismounted, they saw that the person rolling in the muddy water was clearly a thin young man who was soaked all over.
Although with the weak light, no one knew who the young man was, but looking at the opponent's bare face, the light cavalryman didn't hesitate much. He just lifted the soaked young man onto his Then he led the horse to the squad leader. At the same time, he only reported loudly: "Liu Captain, this guy seems to be from our Yongdi people. Do you think this guy is from the opposite side?" Work carefully."
Liu Duizheng only said one sentence when he heard this, "It doesn't matter if he is a trickster or not, we just get the person back. If it is a trickster, the captain will deal with it."
The young man leading the horse immediately nodded. At the same time, Captain Chen also patrolled here. When the two light cavalry faced each other, Captain Chen first asked Liu Duizheng, "Where are you?" Is there anything going on?"
Captain Liu just took it for granted and shook his head when he heard this.
Unexpectedly, the young soldier behind Dui Zheng immediately shouted loudly, "Dou Zheng, we have captured an enemy spy!"
"What is the enemy's conspiracy?" Chen Duwei naturally asked on his own initiative.
The young soldiers immediately led the young man on horseback out of the queue.
At the same time, another person brought out the skinny horse with the Chen flag. As soon as Captain Chen saw the flag, he knew what was going on.
On that day, the King of Jin arranged for several Luan Yi Guards to go to the Qiang Desert to inquire about the news. At that time, the King of Jin made an agreement with Liu Lijin, the commander of the Luan Yi Guards, to ensure that the messenger who came back to deliver the message would be accidentally killed by his own people, so he had to stay about ten miles away from the city. The other party can plant this Chen-character flag.
In this way, if they encounter pursuers, their own soldiers can rescue one or two.
I just didn't expect them to come back today in such a situation. It was raining heavily and their vision was unclear. Naturally, they didn't recognize the flag immediately. Fortunately, Captain Liu always acted steadily. Therefore, the person on the horse does not seem to be injured.
He only glanced at the thin young man, and then he only asked one of the soldiers beside him to hold the young man who was obviously cold and hypothermic and left. Then he only whispered: "This boy, we I took it back with me. Thank you for your hard work today."
After saying this, Captain Chen took the lead in riding back to the city, and the personal guards behind him naturally followed closely behind.
It's night, at the captain's house.
The cold wind carried a biting chill, causing the lanterns in front of the corridor to sway in the wind. After Captain Chen and the soldiers carried the man back to the hall, he immediately ordered a maid to carry the embarrassed man first. The young man put on clean clothes.
The girl was a little embarrassed at first, but it wasn't until she saw the clothes she changed into that she realized that the other party was actually a girl. No wonder her master only asked her to change into clean clothes for her.
At the same time, as the muddy and wet clothes were peeled off, the maid soon discovered a small bamboo tube in her wet clothes. The maid did not hide her secrets. After discovering the bamboo tube After that, she only put on clean clothes for the other party, and then hurriedly
Ran into the lobby.
At this time, in the lobby, apart from Chen Duwei, the only one who had arrived late was the King of Jin, Zhao Yanzhen. After the maid greeted Chen Duwei and the King of Jin, he immediately handed over the mailbox that he had just fumbled from the young man's body. Lieutenant Chen.
Chen Duwei naturally knew that this was probably the message they had delivered today. Although he was the actual person in charge of Guanyuan Town, this information was actually entrusted to King Jin, so he only took the initiative to pass it on. The information obtained was first handed to Zhao Yanzhen: "His Royal Highness, Prince Jin, would you like to see what is written on it?"
Zhao Yanzhen stretched out his hand to block the way, "You don't have to read it. You should read it first and then tell me the details."
After hearing this, Captain Chen naturally just followed his words. He quickly opened the envelope.
Unexpectedly, in addition to explaining the detailed battle plan of the Qiangmo people and explaining their specific number of people this time, it also gave a detailed introduction to the escape routes nearby.
With such information, they can almost lure the enemy down if they retreat, and can meet the enemy upward if they advance.
Seeing such a piece of information, Captain Chen's face was naturally filled with joy.
After reading all the plans, Captain Chen looked up at Zhao Yanzhen excitedly and said, "Your Highness, the commander of the Luanyi Guards is really a good spy. If she is willing in the future, if she is allowed to do it this time, It’s quite appropriate to come to my camp to do business.”
After hearing Captain Chen's words, Zhao Yanzhen just said lightly, "Let's talk about this after asking her what she means."
Then he only spoke and looked at Chen Duwei and said, "So what information did she give you?"
After hearing what Zhao Yanzhen said, Lieutenant Chen immediately talked to Zhao Yanzhen about the contents of the letter.
It was rainy and windy at night, and when He Rong and his party returned to the camp, he immediately ordered his men to drive almost all the Yongdi people in the camp, both men and women, out of their shelter. In the big tent of rain.
When these people were waiting outside the big tent in the night rain, He Rong had already changed into clean clothes. He only raised the token in his hand, and then sternly ordered to the people below, "This token is Whose things belong to you and this longevity lock, you ask them to come up one by one and identify it."
After listening to He Rong's words, the people below naturally walked out of the tent quickly. Then he only said to a female slave from Yongdi who could understand the Qiangmo language, "Tell them to come up one by one and identify the things in the master's hands. If anyone is If you have seen this longevity lock, come here and tell me honestly. If you don’t know him, then you can all be buried with him.”
Hearing the man's words, the female slaves below naturally trembled.
And when this person conveyed He Rong's words, this matter naturally attracted the attention of He Lian and the prince of the Voodoo tribe.
After the prince of the Voodoo tribe hurried over, he felt heartbroken when he saw his female slaves were just thrown outside the tent to soak in the rain. After all, these female slaves in Yongdi were very fragile, and a cold wind might easily kill them. Take their lives. And these female slaves were bought by him with real money.
However, due to the face of the Koso royal family, he could not speak directly about the matter. He only looked at Prince Helian with a distressed expression and said, "Your Highness Helian, look at these girls. Even if something happens to Your Highness, we will Shouldn’t they also be allowed to go to the tent to take shelter from the rain?”
When Helian heard this, he just said quietly, "I know, I'll ask my elder brother."
Seeing that He Lian agreed to his request, the Voodoo Prince immediately beamed and said, "Then I'll leave this matter."
He was unwilling to deal directly with He Rong. When the two Princes of Corso arrived, he only tried his best to entertain them and held a large welcome banquet for them. And for this banquet, He only specially asked his favorite female slaves from Yongdi to come and accompany him.
However, these two people were not interested in his arrangements. He only heard that the eldest prince He Rong seemed to have killed several of his female slaves that night. He had to say what kind of craftsmen those women were, but now Yong It was the Spring Festival, and he heard a report from spies from the west city of Guanyuan Town. They only said that Guanyuan Town was busy preparing for the Spring Festival inside and outside, and they didn't seem to have any sense of the approaching crisis.
Therefore, the prince of the Voodoo tribe had some resentment towards He Rong just because of this incident.
In addition, He Rong seems to be too arbitrary and ruthless in dealing with things. Therefore, compared to He Rong, the eldest prince of the Voodoo tribe is obviously more inclined to talk to He Lian. .
After all, this Helian looks more like a normal person than his elder brother.
Then He Lian quickly opened the curtain of the tent. At this time, He Rong was asking one of the female slaves to come forward to identify the token and the longevity lock he placed on the table.
It's just that He Rong's killing name was out of the question, so the slave girl was undoubtedly afraid of He Rong. As soon as she got close to He Rong, she was so frightened that she trembled all over. Just when He Rong was about to ask the slave girl why she was trembling.
But He Lian called He Rong, "Brother."
Hearing He Lian's call, He Rong only nodded lightly, but He Lian saw the long scar on He Rong's face with just one glance.
So at that moment, he didn't have time to ask He Rong any other questions. He only asked with concern, "Brother, what's the matter with the injury on your face?"
When He Rong heard He Lian's questioning, he subconsciously touched his forehead. He looked at He Lian calmly and said, "It's nothing serious, but I did it accidentally."
But the injury looked like a stab wound, and his words undoubtedly could not convince Helian.
