The morning sun shines into Yanbei City, and the snow on the ground gradually melts due to the morning temperature, indicating that the spring is coming. Only outside General Shan Bin's mansion, the coldness on the cold front of the battle has not diminished, making people feel chilly. .
Shan Bin felt the slightest chill and stood at the foot of the steps in his regular clothes. He tightened his robe and squinted his eyes, looking at Gao Deng who was riding the horse. His face was uncertain, and he looked back from time to time, looking into the mansion. A figure hidden in the darkness...
There was a faint cold gaze, which made Shan Bin frown, like a gleam on his back. Looking back again, Gordon had already approached with his own soldiers, his small eyes were already full of smiles, he turned over and dismounted, ignoring the bushes beside him. The soldiers were fighting, approaching Shan Bin.
Before he could escape from the gaze of the man in the mansion, Shan Bin felt a pair of strong hands holding his arm, and remembered the familiar voice of a straw bag in his ears: "Oh, General Shan, I said goodbye that day, Gao has not been seen for many days. , I miss you very much."
Maybe he felt that Shan Bin's mind was not on him, or he saw Shan Bin looking back. Gordon smiled for a moment, followed Shan Bin's gaze and looked into the general's mansion. After a quick glance, he only saw a flash of light. A hidden blurry figure.
Shan Bin reacted quickly and waited for a moment before Gao Deng was about to continue approaching. He stretched out his hand to stop Gao Deng's plump figure. With a smile on his face, he said politely: "Master Gao has worked hard all the way and has just entered the city this time. Let's go and take a rest first. That’s what matters.”
Gao Deng's eyes flashed with alertness, and his flattering smile returned instantly. His plump body bowed slightly, he held Shan Bin's hands and said, "Gao is grateful to Shan Bin for your sympathy, but there is something even more important at the moment. "
"Oh? The day of military regulations is approaching, what else is more important?" Shan Bin answered with a smile, seemingly puzzled.
Gordon suppressed his smile, his small eyes were full of anger, and he sighed heavily: "Hey, I don't know where the blind thief dared to assassinate me. It was a matter of life and death. It was my general Xu An. He risked his life to save me, and this saved my life. The Chinese medical officer of our army once checked Lao Xu’s pulse and said frankly that we need to find some kind of magic medicine in Yanbei City to save my life. This is not..."
As Gordon spoke, his eyes were filled with tears. It was unclear whether it was for Xu An's life-saving rescue or to stabilize Shan Bin, but these tears moved the surrounding Yanbei soldiers.
Listening to the slight discussion among the soldiers beside him, Shan Bin's eyes flashed alertly. He turned his head slightly and turned to his subordinates and generals. The others immediately understood and hurriedly stepped forward to whisper a few words.
Hearing that the report from his confidant was indeed true, Shan Bin's alertness disappeared a little, he nodded slightly and shouted to the soldiers of Yanbei: "Everyone, be silent!"
The general spoke, and all the soldiers no longer dared to talk. They cheered up and were on guard with their swords in hand. Shan Bin turned his head slightly and looked at the soldiers who followed him into the city through Gao Deng's generous body in front of him.
The tent was broken into pieces, and four military horses each held a corner to serve as carriages. Lying in the middle was the bloodless and unconscious patrol general Xu An.
Shan Bin is no stranger to Xu An. After all, Xu An once served as a general in the Yanbei camp... Withdrew his gaze, his guard unabated, and glanced at Gao Deng's fleshy face. He saw tears streaming down his face. It didn't look like he was faking, and his eyes flickered a few times. After breaking up, he seemed to have made up his mind and spoke.
"General Xu is considered one of the best among our generals in Yanbei. How could he die at the foot of Yanbei City because of this? Come here, tell the medical officer of the mansion to come quickly."
The soldiers beside him heard the general's order, turned around, walked quickly to the mansion, and shouted the general's order.
Gao Deng heard Shan Bin's words and immediately guessed that he was suspicious. If nothing happened, he would let him test him at will. However, Xu An's life was only in a matter of seconds at the moment. How could he tolerate such trouble? He immediately asked: " General Shan, this matter cannot be delayed any longer, we need to find medicine immediately."
With a sneer on his lips, Shan Bin didn't seem to care about Xu An's life. Instead, he comforted Gao Deng with a faint smile and said, "Don't worry, General Gao. Since he entered Yanbei City, he will never let General Xu lose his life."
During the conversation, the soldiers had already led a medical officer with white hair and beard out quickly. The medical officer's face was calm, and he could tell that he had been practicing medicine for many years. As soon as he left the house, he first looked deeply at Shan Bin, and after getting the single After Bin signaled, he approached Xu An.
With a stroke of his gray beard, the medical officer calmly pointed out his fingers, trying to find Xu An's wrist veins.
He tried to fight, but before he could get closer, he was knocked away by a high-ranking soldier on horseback.
The palms of the two people were separated as soon as they touched, and the old medical officer staggered a few steps and was knocked to the ground. Although the soldier on the horse was not as embarrassed as the old medical officer, but his face was covered by a scarf, only the The shocked look in his eyes showed that Shan Bin, the medical officer, was not a simple person.
Seeing this scene, Shan Bin snorted coldly and spoke to Gao Deng in a deep voice: "It seems that there are many capable people under General Gao's command, and the dignified patrol general under his command would actually take action against a small medical officer in my mansion."
Shan Bin was not in a hurry, but Gao Deng was anxious. Xu An's life could not tolerate such a delay. He looked back at the soldier, then turned to Shan Bin and smiled: "General Shan is serious. Gao Deng is entering Yanbei City this time." , didn’t you just come here in compliance with the general’s instructions for entering the city? How dare you argue with the people in the general’s residence...”
As he spoke, his eyes kept glancing at Shan Bin's face, seeing that he was still resentful. When he was hesitating about how to persuade Shan Bin to save people, he heard a muffled shout from behind him, and he hurriedly looked back.
I saw that the private soldier who had just fought with the medical officer had already pulled out the short knife from his waist and stabbed his shoulder blade. The private soldier's attack was so cruel that all the Yanbei soldiers were shocked. The short knife penetrated deep into the body until the handle of the knife was high. When Gao and Shan's eyes turned around, the soldier pulled out the short sword with all his strength and threw it in front of the medical officer. Then his eyes slightly moved and turned to Generals Gao and Shan.
Perhaps he was frightened by the cold look in the soldier's eyes. Shan Bin couldn't help but take half a step back. But then he thought about the soldiers under his command, so he had to save his face and didn't bother to speak: "It's just a knife on the shoulder. If it's military law, , it’s not an exaggeration to give you three swords and six holes.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the coldness in the soldier's eyes had turned into a strong murderous intent. After thinking for a moment, he said again: "I regret thinking about you. I will write this down for the time being. I hope you will make meritorious service in the future..." .I see that General Xu’s injury is indeed serious. Don’t check for a pulse. Go to the city’s Chinese medicine shop quickly and seek life-sustaining ginseng.”
After finishing speaking, he turned to Gao Deng and continued to speak: "General Gao, I have decided to conduct a military order at the Yunlai Inn in Yanbei City. I don't know what you think..."
At this moment, Gao Deng only had the matter of rescuing people in his mind, so he had no time to worry about anything else. He immediately responded: "Gao Deng is willing to obey General Shan's military orders. I hope General Shan will allow Gao to take people with him. First, go to the medicine shop and find some people." The medicine saved Xu An's life, and then he went to Yunlai Inn to make military regulations."
Xu Shi Gao Deng had given himself enough face in front of his soldiers. Shan Bin was very proud and said bluntly: "It's easy to say... The generals of the Yanbei camp and the brothers from the Fuji family have not yet entered the city. General Gao will leave, but he must not be mistaken." It’s time.”
Hearing this, Gao Deng was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed and bowed. He did not look like the leader of an army at all, which made the Yanbei soldiers sneer at him. However, Gao Deng didn't care. He quickly turned around, mounted his horse and headed towards the city with his soldiers. ..
Looking at the backs of Gao Deng's five cavalry leaving, Shan Bin's eyes remained alert. He looked at the medical officer who had slowly stood up, stared at him, turned slightly sideways, looked at the soldiers beside him, whispered a few words, and then raised his head. Come, he said to himself: "I don't know what's going on. I've been feeling unwell recently. Lao Wang... follow me into the house for diagnosis and treatment."
The medical officer who had just stood up hurriedly dusted off the snow and mud on his body, quickly followed Shan Bin's pace, and entered the mansion...
After entering the mansion, he moved to the back house and screened out his servants. Shan Bin just turned around and spoke to the medical officer of his mansion. He completely lost the aura of the general who was waiting for Yanbei to command outside the mansion.
"Your Majesty, look at Gordon..."
The medical officer who was following Shan Bin cautiously now seemed to be a different person. He straightened his waist, stroked his beard and hair with his palms, and with a gentle touch, the gray beard and hair instantly turned black, and his whole body also changed. Then the aura of a superior person came out, it was the former envoy of Jin.
After hearing Shan Bin's words, the Jin envoy stroked his beard and smiled: "Gao Deng... it's not something to worry about. There are laws to punish the son who rebels, but the soldier just now..."
Shan Bin recalled that outside the mansion just now, the Jin envoy pretending to be a medical officer wanted to test, but was knocked over by the soldier. He thought it was the Jin envoy disguising, but when he heard the Jin envoy's words, he did not mean to pretend, and he was immediately shocked. Said: "Personal soldiers? Your Majesty Shicai... Could it be..."
"General Shan is scared?" Envoy Jin glanced coldly and said with a sneer.
"I...I would be afraid of that little one...
Little soldier. "Shan Bin pretended to be calm.
There was a rare hint of worry in the eyes of the Jin envoy. He looked outside the palace and slowly said: "Young soldier? Hum, I didn't expect that after so many years, I can still meet my old friends in Yanbei City."
The Jin envoy was muttering to himself, but when Shan Bin heard it clearly, he immediately lost his composure. During the fight outside the mansion, if the Jin envoy recognized the identity of the soldier, the soldier would naturally also recognize the Jin envoy. ..
"What? General Shan, don't you want to know the identity of that soldier?" Shan Bin's look was noticed by the Jin envoy, and he immediately spoke calmly.
"He...who is he?" Shan Bin had sweat on his forehead and was trembling when he spoke.
"Your Emperor Qi Yun, didn't you have a Yunying Division? Back then, the Yunying Division had a famous deputy commander?" The Jin envoy spoke softly as if he was remembering that time. There was no worry in his eyes anymore, but a faint look of excitement.
"Chen...Chen Mo? Didn't he already die in...how could..." Shan Bin heard the name of Yun Yingsi, and his body began to tremble gradually. smell.
A bright look appeared in the eyes of the Jin envoy, as if he had remembered something. He laughed up to the sky and shouted loudly inside and outside the palace, waking up Shan Bin who had been immersed in Chen Mo's reputation for a long time.
"Then... if it is really him... what should we... do? Did... he... His Majesty found out..." Shan Bin, who only thought about his future, had already said this Unable to say anything.
The Jin envoy glanced at Shan Bin, who was shaking like chaff beside him, and said to himself: "It's getting more and more interesting. No wonder Gao Deng switched sides... It seems that he is really good at planning. The Lord once said "The joy of the chess game lies in meeting my opponent in Yanbei. It really surprises me again and again."
Shan Bin did not dare to take the Jin envoy's words anymore, and only followed the Jin envoy's gaze to look at the light of the morning sun.
It was also under the morning sun. Gordon ordered everyone to rush to the medicine shop first, while he accompanied Lao Chen, who was pretending to be his own soldier, to walk slowly behind. Looking at the injury on Lao Chen's shoulder, Gordon blamed himself and spoke.
"Old Chen, the reason why you were injured is all my fault...it's..."
Before he finished speaking, Lao Chen raised his hand to stop him. His right arm was injured. Lao Chen raised his left hand and pulled off his scarf. He opened his mouth and breathed: "I'm suffocated. I can finally breathe."
Gordon looked over and saw that there was no sign of pain on Lao Chen's face. Instead, there was a hint of excitement in his eyes. He couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Could it be that... that knife just now was fake?"
As he said this, he was about to check Lao Chen's wound. This move touched Lao Chen's wound. He immediately bared his teeth and said, "Why are you moving around? Do you want to hurt me to death?"
"You...you look like you've been hit by a knife." Seeing that Old Chen looked unfazed, Gordon felt relieved and teased.
"General Gao, it's not that Old Chen's knife doesn't hurt, but it just avoids the vital point... Moreover, we have greater gains during this trip to Yanbei." Old Chen raised his eyebrows slightly and met Gao Deng's gaze. .
"Oh? What's the harvest?"
"An old friend."
