It took him a long time to report, but the top two generals didn't answer.

The principal waited for a long time, feeling a little impatient. When he looked up again, he saw Ji Xian waved his hand, and an attendant came up and brought out a plate of gold and silver jewelry in front of the principal.

"This is a reward for you." Ji Qi said in a deep voice: "Go back and report back at any time if you have any further news. I will definitely have more rewards."

"Yes! Yes! They say the two generals are generous... and it's true!"

The principal was so happy that he came up to grab the gold beads and put them in his arms. He accidentally dropped a few gold pearls on the ground and hurriedly knelt on the ground to touch them. The waiter carrying the plate couldn't stand the greedy look, so he simply took a cloth bag, poured the remaining gold beads into the bag, and then patted the bag into the hands of the principal.

The principal stepped back outside the Chinese army's tent with great gratitude. As he backed away, he praised Ji Qi and Ji Xian's generosity.

Halfway through, Ji Qi called him back again: "These belongings cannot be exposed in front of others for the time being. If word gets out about this, Guo Jia'er will kill someone, and I won't be able to save you!"

The primary school teacher responded with a series of thanks.

After his figure disappeared outside, Ji Qi called his attendants over: "In the past few days, I will lead people to keep a close eye on this guy."

The attendant took the order and went.

Next to him, Ji Xian chuckled: "Guo Yao'er acts like an inhumane saint all day long. It turns out that his subordinates are also greedy for money."

Ji Qi asked all the attendants to go out, and then shook his head: "Since this guy has colluded with Guo Ning, I don't know when he will sacrifice Mizhou and use your and my brother's heads as a way to enter the body! Fortunately, he The subordinates are greedy for property, so come and report! Otherwise, I’m afraid you and I will both become dead ghosts without knowing it!”

"After all, it won't be a big deal if you are a colleague?" Ji Xian hesitated: "Guo Yao'er is not the kind of ruthless person. Guo Ning also made an agreement with Marshal Yang..."

Ji Qi slapped the table hard: "What agreement? The situation at that time, hey..."

He held back half a sentence and continued: "Can you believe the agreement? Let me tell you, Guo Ning is planning to seize our Mizhou when Marshal Yang is about to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor and has no time for foreign affairs! Otherwise, how can we explain that? The people who have arranged for the navy to come early or late, but in the past few days...are they still building a lot of construction in Banqiao Town?"

"This is bitter." Ji Xian's expression changed, and he was a little panicked: "Then what should we do? Is it still too late to send someone to report to Marshal Yang?"

"It is natural to send someone to report, but... Guo Yao'er is a confidant who followed Marshal Yang to Northern Xinjiang. We only rely on the confession of this small school, which is not enough. If Marshal Yang doesn't believe us, we Wouldn’t it become a thorn in Guo Jie’er’s side and a thorn in his flesh?”

"you mean?"

"Isn't Guozhao'er waiting for Ding Haijun's food, fodder, and soldiers to be funded? We sent people to keep a close eye on Ding Hai Hai's transportation team. Once we find Ding Hai Hai's transportation team, we will send troops to rob it! We robbed property, arrested people, and returned to Zhucheng with evidence... Then arrest Guo Jiao'er! Take him first, seize his military power, and then report to Marshal Yang!"

"this……"

Ji Xian knew that Ji Qi had always indulged his soldiers. Since he came to Mizhou, he and Guo Yao'er had clashed several times over various minor matters related to military discipline, and several lives had been lost during that time. When he came up with such an idea, was he really not just avenging his personal revenge?

He also knew that neither Ji Qi nor himself were direct descendants of Yang An'er. In the early years, the two of them were subordinates of Liu You, a hero in Pizhou, and were responsible for protecting smuggling caravans. Later, Liu You was defeated and killed, and the two of them got Yang An'er's care and started to build a team on their own.

However, the size of the team is limited, and the strength is also limited, so even if Yang An'er raises an army, the two of them will not take turns to gain any benefits. When they attacked Binzhou before, many of their men died. Ji Qi attacked the city late at night, and half of his face was badly burned by torches. The final result was that his own troops were lacking, his status in front of the marshal was reduced, and he was thrown to Mizhou to eat the sea breeze.

If we can really seize the evidence of Guo Yao'er's rebellion, bring this guy down, and then annex his troops, the strength of the two of them will at least double, and they will probably rank among the top twenty under Marshal Yang, right? With such power, it should be taken seriously. Isn't it appropriate to take a Mizhou from Yang An'er as a reward?

When Ji Xian was thinking of this, Ji Qi took half a step forward:

"After the matter is completed, Mizhou will be your responsibility. We will divide the materials provided by the navy and the soldiers and horses of Guo Jiaer 50-50. After Marshal Yang ascends the throne and becomes emperor, he will definitely be promoted to an official position and generously rewarded. Here in Mizhou, With you as the leader and me as the second-in-command, we will work together to occupy Mizhou and resist Guo Ning! How about it?"

Ji Xian muttered: "I'm afraid it's hard to recruit Guo Jiao'er's troops. Without these good men, they won't be able to withstand Guo Ning."

Ji Qi laughed loudly: "Why can't Guo Jiao'er's soldiers and horses be easily integrated? Didn't we just see that? Who wouldn't be tempted by gold, silver, money, and silk?"

Until this point, neither of them mentioned whether Yang An'er would be dissatisfied with this obvious opportunity to annex people. This is all because such mergers have become the norm under Yang An'er. It would be abnormal to raise doubts about this.

Ji Xian thought about it for a while and finally nodded.

Ji Qi gritted his teeth and said: "Then I will prepare troops and horses, and then assign fine manpower to explore the movements of Banqiao Town!"

Thinking of the benefits he was about to get, his face flushed, and the scar on his face that was burned by the fire turned even redder and purple.

The supplies from Ding Haijun arrived very quickly. Only six days later, the junior colonel who came to inform them sent news that tomorrow was the day when Ding Haijun and Guo Yaoer agreed to hand over the supplies.

In the direction of Banqiao Town, the surveillance people arranged by Ji Qi also received news that a convoy was coming from the direction of Mizhou, along the Dagu River south, and had already arrived in the town. The convoy was large in size, all heavily loaded, and accompanied by two to three hundred guards.

Ji Qi and Ji Xian were overjoyed. Ji Qi immediately ordered more than a thousand soldiers and horses to leave the camp, saying they were going out for training. After leaving the city, we went straight to Banqiao Town. But Ji Xian only assigned his subordinates, one to strictly guard his own military camp, and the other to firmly guard the north gate of Zhucheng.

Guo Yao'er was completely unprepared for this move.

It wasn't until the next morning that he noticed that the primary school student who had been waiting around him suddenly disappeared and could not be found anywhere. One or two deserters in the army is a trivial matter, just grab a few strong men to fill them, but this small colonel knows the secrets of the army. His identity is really unusual!

Guo Yao'er quickly sent people to investigate. After this investigation, he discovered the mysterious whereabouts of the two.

Only then did he realize that there was something wrong in his army. This is troublesome...

Ji Qi and Ji Xian, these two bastards, I originally thought that after taking the benefits, I would divide the profits between their families, but I never thought that their families would fall out first!

In such a situation, special means must be used! Guo Yao'er was a veteran of the battlefield, not a pedantic scholar. He did not hesitate at all and immediately led his troops to attack Ji Qi and Ji Xian's camp.

Zhucheng County suddenly fell into chaos. The two soldiers and horses were originally in the same robe and had the same flag. Now they suddenly started fighting among themselves and were fighting to the point where there was no way out. In an instant, fires broke out everywhere in the city, and black smoke rose. The two armies shouted and cursed at each other and killed each other.

Some soldiers were newly recruited. Although they were divided into two armies, they were from the same hometown and were even related to each other. But at this time, the officer forced him with a knife and had to fight.

Some of the more skilled ones raised their spears, pointed them at the enemy's chest and abdomen, and plunged them into the enemy's chest and abdomen, penetrating the body and emerging from the lower back.

The man who was shot hung on the barrel of the gun and twitched repeatedly, cursing to himself: "You bitch, we are relatives! We are relatives!"

After a fierce battle for more than half an hour, corpses were lying on several streets. The blood of the soldiers was flowing gurglingly, and the corpses were all wearing similar red jackets. The combat effectiveness and military strength of Guo Yao'er's troops were much stronger than that of Jixian's troops. The city gate controlled by Jixian's troops first changed hands, and then they were forced to approach the camp. They were about to win, but Jixian's troops still resisted.

This guy is just waiting for Ji Qi to lead his troops to come back for reinforcements!

Guo Jiaoer's face was livid and he held the knife himself, waiting to command the general attack.

At this time, someone rushed over and reported breathlessly: "Capital, a caravan has arrived at the city gate!"

Guo Yao'er was surprised: "Caravan? Dinghai, oh no, the caravan of the Southern Song Dynasty? They were not intercepted by Ji Qi? Did the two sides go astray? Okay, great!"

This caravan is the first batch of materials obtained from the cooperation between Guo Yaoer and Ding Haijun, which is of great significance. Guo Yao'er was a little happy and did not bother to besiege Ji Xian's military camp again. He hurried to the city gate to greet him.

When they arrived at the city gate, they saw a long queue of carts, and on the cart at the front sat a handsome young man in brocade robes. However, his face was covered in blood, and his brocade robe was torn in several places, exposing the iron armor underneath. Looking at the guards on both sides of the cart at the back, there were also many injured. Some guards had human heads hanging on their waists, and all of them had a murderous look in their eyes.

In front of the brocade-robed young master, there are short spears on one side and one on the right. There is also a head hanging on the short gun on the left.

Guozhao'er glanced at it and quickly stepped forward to take another look. On the face of the head, a huge burn scar was very conspicuous.

"Is this Ji Qi? Is he dead?" Guo Yao'er murmured.

"My head has been chopped off, how can I still be alive?" Young Master Jinpao smiled and said, "Du Tong, we are old friends. I can help you get rid of your enemy with just a little effort. You don't need to thank me."

Guo Yao'er looked at the young master in brocade robes. He was actually a local hero and an acquaintance of Guo Yao'er.

"You are Gao Xin and Gao Langjun from Jiuxian Mountain! No wonder I haven't seen you these days. Turns out you chose a good boss and became a subordinate of Ding Haijun?"

Gao Xin said seriously: "Du Tong, don't talk nonsense, we... ahem, we are the caravan of the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties!"

Guo Yao'er stood at the city gate, listening to the sounds of fighting that continued in the city, and was silent for a long time.

It wasn't until his own soldiers became a little restless that he nodded: "Yes, you are the caravan of the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties."
