When Fan Yang heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little vigilant, and shook his head and said:
"This is an important military area, and war may break out at any time. You are here to reward the troops, but if something happens, how can we afford it?! It would be inappropriate to stay here overnight."
Fan Yang spoke with an unquestionable tone. If it had been anyone else, he would have been shocked by it.
However, how could this Duanmuci be an ordinary person? After listening to Fan Yang's words, he actually started acting like a businessman:
"It's just... Mr. Zhongjun, it's difficult to travel at night, and I'm afraid something unexpected may happen. Please ask Mr. Zhongjun to be accommodating. It's only for one night. I don't think I'll miss this one night, right?!"
When Fan Yang heard what Duanmu Ci said, he became even more suspicious.
"Nonsense! Staying in my camp is not the same as camping outside?"
Duanmuci grinned and said:
"Of course it's different. Being stationed abroad is always scary! If we can borrow a night here, we can sleep more peacefully."
Fan Yang felt a little annoyed, but he didn't want to get angry. He pondered for a moment and then said:
"That's all! I'll let you stay here for one night, and then go back and resume your life tomorrow morning!"
Hearing this, Duanmu Ci was deeply afraid that he would regret it, so he immediately bowed and complimented with a playful smile:
"No! Fan Zhongjun is indeed reasonable, I would like to thank you in advance!"
At this time, Fan Yang also stretched out a hand and said quickly:
"Come here, take this person to the inner camp to rest!"
Duanmu Ci didn't hesitate, bowed, and exited the tent.
At this time, in the big tent, Shu Niu came to Fan Yang from behind the scenes and said:
"It might be inappropriate to keep him for one day!"
Fan Yang was also stunned, but then he smiled contemptuously and said:
"This person is just a kid with a yellow mouth. He doesn't have a city, so he shouldn't be able to do anything."
Shuniu said:
"But after all, it's better to be careful! This person...maybe he is from Li Ran's side. No one knows what the purpose of his trip is!"
Fan Yang held his chin with one hand and thought for a while.
"Since he asked to stay for one day, that's it. It's just a brief moment, so how much power can he have? And station a guard outside his tent, and just wait until early tomorrow morning to drive him out of the camp!"
Shu Niu nodded, then went out of the tent and told the patrolling men about the matter.
…
Speaking of Duanmu Ci, he was not in a hurry to go to his camp, but went to contact the army for supplies.
However, there was someone else following him along the way.
Therefore, Duanmu Ci has been observing the surrounding situation, especially the direction of Zhao Camp, and memorized it in his heart.
It was obvious that the reason why he asked to stay one more day was precisely for tonight's action.
Zhao Yang was the main force in attacking Weiguo this time, so Zhao's camp had to be further forward.
But it's not far from Fan Yang's camp. Duanmu Ci thought in his heart that this time should be enough time.
The key is how can he escape?
After Duanmu Ci found out the situation, he returned to his tent.
Duanmu Ci lay down directly to sleep, and soon began to snore.
After confirming that Duanmu Ci was asleep, the people sent by Fan Yang hurried back to recover.
After Fan Yang heard this, he smiled slightly again and said to the standing cow next to him:
"This kid seems to have no second thoughts, so there is nothing to worry about!"
Shuniu smiled and said:
"Haha, even though this kid is just a youngster, you still have to keep an eye on him, just in case!"
Fan Yang disagreed and said:
"In my territory, what kind of trouble can he cause?"
Therefore, Fan Yang no longer took him seriously and just let people continue to guard him outside his tent.
As for Duanmu Ci, he was indeed sleeping at this time, and he slept until dark. This made the people guarding him naturally not take him seriously anymore.
After all, he came to reward the army on behalf of the Lu State, and he was not a prisoner, so he simply stopped looking into the camp afterwards.
Duanmu gave this message, "It seems like sleep but not sleeping", and the success was to let everyone down their guard.
Immediately afterwards, he extinguished the lights in the tent, and instantly the tent became pitch black.
And he quickly took out his night clothes and put them on, and pretended to be cool for a while.
After waiting until there were two soldiers in front of the tent, both of whom began to doze off, Duanmu Ci got out directly from the ventilation area that had been reserved in the corner of the tent.
Because this was during wartime, there were still many people patrolling. Fortunately, Duanmu Ci was still quite strong. Taking advantage of the cover of night, he slowly reached Zhao Yang's camp, only to see that it was still brightly lit.
Because Zhao Yang didn't trust Fan Yang, he didn't place soldiers on guard around the Chinese army's tent to prevent anyone from hearing anything.
Duanmu dodged and entered Zhao Yang's tent directly.
There were two young men in the tent and they were talking when they discovered that someone had barged in directly. But when one of them pulled out the sword from his waist with a "clop" sound, he jumped up to grab Duanmu Ci.
Duanmuci saw it and said hurriedly:
"May I ask whether your venerable person is Zhao Zhongjun?!"
These two young men were indeed Zhao Yang and Dong Anyu. When Zhao Yang heard this, he stopped suspiciously and looked up and down at the boy in front of him.
"Who are you? Why did you break into my camp in the middle of the night?"
Duanmu Ci introduced himself and said:
"Duanmu Ci, whose name is Zigong, is from the state of Lu. He comes to reward the army today!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yang took back his sword and put it into its sheath.
"Since you're here to reward the troops, what are you doing here?"
After Duanmu Ci confirmed Zhao Yang's identity, he said:
"I came here this time because I was entrusted by Mr. Ziming!"
As soon as Duanmu Ci said these words, Dong An also stood up.
"Oh? Are you serious about this?"
Duanmu gave a serious look and said:
"How can it be false?"
Zhao Yang grabbed Duanmu Ci's hand, the two sat down together, and said enthusiastically:
"It turns out he is someone close to Mr. Ziming. It's really rare! I wonder how Mr. Ziming is doing?"
Duanmuci replied:
"Mr. Ziming was depressed for a long time because of his wife's death. Now he is feeling a little better."
When Zhao Yang heard this, he couldn't help but said with regret:
"Hey, sir, it's really sad to be widowed in middle age..."
After a while of emotion, Duanmu Ci immediately raised his hands and said seriously:
"Zhongjun Zhao, the State of Lu is facing a catastrophe now, please ask Zhongjun Zhao to help!"
Zhao Yang glanced at Dong Anyu, who said:
"Actually, we were still discussing this matter just now. It was my lord's intention to help Lu State against Qi State. However, Fan Yang deliberately sent me, the Zhao family, here to fight against Wei State. This is On the one hand, they want to prevent us from aiding Lu, but on the other hand, they are undoubtedly trying to make our Zhao family have grudges with the people of the world!"
"We are also trapped in this situation now, but there is nothing we can do about it! Therefore, although we intend to help the State of Lu, we are powerless!"
"Furthermore... I, the Zhao family, are not on good terms with the Fan family. I am afraid that Fan Yang's move was also intended to target our Zhao family. However, he is now the chief minister of our Jin country, and we, the Zhao family, cannot openly disobey him!"
"So...this matter is indeed quite difficult!"
