Du Wenlin jumped off the house and shouted:

"Go back quickly."

The three of them went back very quickly, but unfortunately it was still too late.

At a street corner less than a mile away from the barracks, the plainclothes captain fell to the ground with an arrow cluster stuck in his back.

The opponent is determined not to leave anyone alive.

The three of them went directly to the supervisor's office, and Du Wenlin handed the scroll to Supervisor Mei.

After reading the scroll, Inspector Mei thought for a moment and said:

"Please keep this matter quiet for the time being. The three of you are responsible for monitoring Wang Qianhu's every move. If there is anything unusual, report it to me immediately."

Wang Ling said anxiously:

"Since that junior officer is Wang Qianhu's subordinate, he can't escape his involvement. Why not just arrest him?"

"The witness is dead. Is there any evidence to prove that the person was sent by Wang Qianhu?"

Wang Ling was speechless.

Several days passed without Wang Qianhu taking any action.

This is a hidden source of trouble, and I don’t know when it will strike.

Supervisor Mei Guozhen sent a special memorandum to the emperor for this purpose, reminding the court to pay attention to the "Red Fengjiao" disciples and beware of them taking advantage of Ningxia's rebellion and domestic military strength and financial shortage to start an uprising.

Magui, the commander-in-chief of Ningxia, led his troops and stationed them outside the city of Yan'an Prefecture.

Now we just have to wait for the arrival of Shanxi Commander-in-Chief Li Rusong's army. When the time comes, several armies will unite and prepare to wipe out the rebels in one fell swoop.

Du Wenlin has now become Mei Guozhen's most trusted person.

Among the generals who led troops to fight abroad, almost no one liked the supervisors sent by the imperial court. In their eyes, the supervisors were cumbersome and uninformed about military affairs. Therefore, the treatment Mei Guozhen received here was no exception.

.

Not only did Governor Wei Xuezeng treat him coldly, but even the commander-in-chief Ma Gui ignored him.

Although Mei Guozhen felt uncomfortable, there was nothing he could do about it.

During peacetime, civilian officials could still control foreign military attachés, but once the war broke out, the generals who charged on the front lines became popular figures in the court.

This is the truth.

As a court supervisor, if you don't have some military knowledge and don't have some reasonable suggestions after arriving at the front line, it will be inevitable to be rejected by the generals.

Mei Guozhen desperately wanted to break this embarrassing situation. After thinking hard for a few days, he called Du Wenlin to the Military Supervisory Office, and the two chatted secretly throughout the morning.

"The flowers and birds in the Qin Dynasty have already returned to their hometown, but the wind and sand outside the Great Wall are still cold."

In early summer, the land of the Central Plains is already green and summer insects are chirping.

The yellow sand here often blocks out the sun during the day, and the nights are cold and desolate. Occasionally there is movement, it is the hungry wolves in the desert howling at the moon, which makes it even more desolate.

On such a desolate night, a horseman galloped out of the military camp on the outskirts of Yan'an City and headed straight for the distant desert depths.

The man on the horse is none other than Du Wenlin.

The rebellion in Ningxia has been going on for three months, and the imperial court has continuously mobilized large armies to carry out encirclement and suppression campaigns. However, not only has the rebels not been wiped out, but they have lost troops and generals and consumed countless money, which makes the emperor very angry.

When Mei Guozhen and Du Wenlin were leaving the capital, the emperor summoned them again. First, he asked Du Wenlin to protect Mei Guozhen, and second, he orally told Mei Guozhen to act according to the situation and to replace generals with mediocre command skills or stagnant generals on the spot.

It's easy to say it, but it's difficult to actually implement it.

Although a military supervisor holds the Emperor's Sword of Shangfang, if he does not have some special talents, who will obey these generals who spend their days licking blood with their swords and killing people like hemp? If one of them is not good, it is very likely that there will be another mutiny.

Mei Guozhen thought for a long time, planned with Du Wenlin for a long time, and decided to implement a bold plan: a divorce plan.

If this plan succeeds, it will not only greatly reduce the difficulty of counterinsurgency, but also allow you to gain a foothold in this murderous place.

This plan must be kept strictly confidential. If you are not careful, it will be like drawing water from a bamboo basket.

In the evening, Du Wenlin declared to Wang Qianhu and the two girls that the Supervisory Army Mansion had important matters that he needed his assistance in handling in the past few days, and they had to rush there overnight. He also told them that there was no need to look for him.

Although Wang Qianhu had doubts, he couldn't ask too many questions.

The two girls hesitated for a long time and wanted to go with them. Du Wenlin scolded them coldly and finally gave up.

Already deep into the desert, Du Wenlin looked up from time to time to look at the dim stars, fearing he would lose his way.

In the endless desert, there are occasionally sparse Populus euphratica forests, which can be considered a very beautiful scenery.

It was already midnight, and Du Wenlin felt his eyelids were heavy. He was looking for a sheltered place to rest for a while, when he suddenly noticed a faint flickering light in front of him.

Slow down, try not to make the sound of the horse's hooves, and slowly approach forward.

In front of it is a tent, where a small army should be stationed.

This is a place controlled by the enemy, and this army should also belong to the enemy.

I wanted to go far away, but I also wanted to inquire about the enemy's situation.

After getting off the horse, he bent down and touched the enemy camp.

Dozens of tents were pitched in the desert. Except for a few soldiers patrolling, there were no fences around them. At first glance, they were temporarily stationed.

Du Wenlin entered the barracks easily.

It was pitch dark in the barracks, and there were loud snores coming from the tent.

I walked around inside but found nothing. Just when I was about to exit, a figure suddenly emerged from a tent in the middle.

It should be that the sleeper is anxious to get up at night.

Du Wenlin hurriedly hid in the shadow of the tent.

The man was about thirty years old and had a beard. He looked around and went straight to a nearby tent.

"You even have to move the bed when you sleep." Du Wenlin laughed in his heart.

After the man entered the tent and was about to leave, he suddenly heard the faint sound of fighting coming from the tent.

"Is it possible that this guy got up in the middle of the night to seek revenge?" Du Wenlin was curious and quietly went to the back of the tent, lifted a corner and looked inside.

Although there was no lamp in the tent, with Du Wenlin's eyesight, he could vaguely see what was going on inside.

In the middle of the tent was a bunk on which a man and a woman were struggling.

The person who came in just now was riding on a woman wearing white underwear, covering the woman's mouth with one hand, grabbing the woman's hands and pressing them on her chest with the other, trying to subdue the woman.

The woman struggled desperately below, but the man was larger and stronger. No matter how hard the woman resisted, the man still had the upper hand.

Tears of shame and anger flowed from the woman's eyes, her resistance became weaker and weaker, and the man showed a sinister smile.

Seeing that the prey is about to lose its ability to resist, it is ready to feast.

Although both sides were enemies, Du Wenlin couldn't stand it when a big man used such violent means to bully a weak woman.

With a fever in his head, he opened the tent, ducked in, and came behind the man in one step. He stretched out his right palm and chopped off the back of his head.

The man was lowering his head and preparing to kiss the woman's lips. The Ruolan breath exhaled from the woman's mouth had already made him drunk before the kiss.

It's a pity that those beautiful lips so close to me can no longer be kissed tonight. I tilted my head and fainted next to her.

Du Wenlin turned around and was about to leave, when the woman suddenly whispered:

"Wait a moment!"

Although the woman's accent has a strong northern flavor, it makes people feel comfortable.

Du Wenlin couldn't help but stop, turned around, and looked at the woman.

The woman took out the fire break, lit the candle, and looked up at Du Wenlin.

After seeing Du Wenlin's decoration clearly, he looked surprised.

"You are not our soldier!" she said with certainty.

Du Wenlin nodded, cupped his hand, turned around and left again.

A white shadow flashed before his eyes, and the woman had already blocked the way.

"You are Han, why are you here tonight?" the woman asked, but her tone was not harsh.

Du Wenlin couldn't answer this question. No matter what excuse he used, he couldn't explain the reason for his sudden appearance at this time and place.

At this moment, he began to regret his impulsiveness, which got himself into trouble for no reason.

He bit his lip, hesitated for a moment, and said:

"Miss, please get out of the way. I passed by here occasionally and happened to see this man bullying you, so I reached out to help him."

This explanation is full of holes, and even I feel that it is too forced.

Of course, the woman had no intention of letting him leave just like that. A pair of big eyes as bright as stars above her straight nose stared straight at Du Wenlin:

"Warrior, are you sure you're not mistaken? This is a military camp, and there are many soldiers patrolling outside. You just 'pass by here occasionally'. Do you think this reason is credible?"

Du Wenlin felt that he was short of words and was a little annoyed:

"Girl, I can't explain anything to you anymore, please get out of the way!"

The title has changed from Miss to Girl.

He didn't want to know the identity of the young lady in front of him, nor did he want to know who the man he chopped down was.

After all, this is in the enemy's military camp. If we delay for a long time and attract the attention of the patrolling soldiers, we will be in trouble.

You must leave immediately.

Seeing Du Wenlin's resolute attitude in leaving, the woman reached out and took out a jade plaque from her arms, and said softly:

"No matter where you are from or why you are here, you saved me after all! This is my portable jade token. If you go to the north and encounter any trouble, take this jade token and go to the local

The yamen or the garrison are my friends. Almost all of them know this jade sign and will do their best to help you."

Du Wenlin heard something in his heart, reached out to take the sign, put it in his arms without looking at it, held his hand again and said:

"Thank you for your care, Miss!"

The woman moved away, and Du Wenlin was able to get out of the tent without looking back.

The soldiers patrolling the perimeter did not notice the changes here, and the camp remained the same as before.

It's just that the night wind was much stronger than before, blowing through the roof of the shed and making a sharp whistling sound.

Du Wenlin rode a military BMW with a faster pace and entered Ningxia City on the evening of the third day.

According to his plan with Mei Guozhen, he should first find Liu Dongyang, the Han leader of the rebel bandits.

Aibai was originally a minor chief of the Mongolian Tatar tribe. He surrendered to the Ming army because of disagreements with the Tatar tribe leaders.

Worshiping the Ming Dynasty is just an expedient measure, not a voluntary act.

Later, he was promoted to deputy commander-in-chief of Ningxia because of his military exploits in the Ming Dynasty's war with the Tatars.

It is a pity that his ambitions did not change, and the former governor of Ningxia, Dang Xin, was corrupt and deducted military pay, which created opportunities for the Kuaibai rebellion.

So Kuai Bai instigated the Ming Dynasty's junior officers Liu Dongyang, Xu Chao and others to mutiny, and killed the governor Dang Xin and other Ming Dynasty officials, openly raising the flag of rebellion.

Kuaibai promised Liu Dongyang that after defeating the Ming army, he could make Liu Dongyang the "King of Ningxia".

The two of them worked together to conquer the city and destroyed the lives of their people.

Mei Guozhen and Du Wenlin planned to first attack Liu Dongyang, a Han Chinese, and instigate rebellion against him. Then they would find ways to alienate the relationship between Kuaibai and Liu Dongyang, turn them against each other, and break their alliance from within.

This is a plan that kills two birds with one stone. If this plan succeeds, it is very likely to end the war that has raged for several months.
