After a long time, news came out in the camp, saying, "My shopkeeper invites you in."
Seeing this, Zhu Qianhu was overjoyed. At this time, the camp gate opened and Zhu Qianhu led a team of scouts in.
Sure enough, although it was at night, there were indeed many guards on the caravan. When Zhu Qianhu entered the camp gate, he saw that it was orderly inside, and teams of guards were still patrolling back and forth with their spirits. Perhaps because
Zhu Qianhu and the scouts behind him were from Xuanfu, so everyone was not wary of him. Zhu Qianhu couldn't help but be amazed. If he really rushed over, the other party would have been prepared to deal with the night attack.
I am afraid that this sneak attack will fall into a fierce battle, and by that time, things will be a bit tricky.
Zhu Qianhu rolled over and dismounted quietly. Someone took him into a tent. The owner of the tent seemed to have just been woken up and seemed a little impatient. However, this 'shopkeeper' was very young and had a handsome face.
With a little sleepy look, he glanced at Zhu Qianhu, but showed no enthusiasm, but said, "Are you here to patrol the border?"
Zhu Qianhu knew that this person was the shopkeeper Chen Feng, and this person had beaten Eunuch Zhao, but not many people knew about this, and it was only circulated in the upper class of Xuanfu. If a person like this is too enthusiastic about him.
, he would have doubts, but the more condescending tone, Zhu Qianhu thought that the other party had no idea. He said without hesitation: "Every time this time, the Tartars will go south and invade border towns.
The population was plundered, so my general took three thousand people out to patrol the border. It was not that he really wanted to go to war with the Wassai and the Tatars, but just gave them a deterrence. This is a common example in Xuanfu, and now the general is already
Ten miles away, when I saw the caravan's camp, I asked me to negotiate. The soldiers were trapped and wanted to join the camp to take a break, but I didn't know if Manager Chen would agree?"
The owner of the tent was Liu Chengfeng. Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but smile, looked at Zhu Qianhu and said, "Do you know me?"
Zhu Qianhu said in his heart, who in the Xuan Mansion would not recognize you? How many people can even offend Eunuch Zhao? But he laughed awkwardly and said, "I heard of his name for a long time."
Liu Chengfeng looked lazy and said, "It would be fine if he just came in to avoid the wind and get warm. Besides, even if you want to camp now, there are many inconveniences in this dark sky. This is outside the pass, everyone is
It is also hard for the Han people to patrol the border. How can we, the common people, not agree? It’s just that our caravan’s grain supplies are calculated. If you lose one point, you will have to be hungry. So you have to go back and tell me that it’s expensive.
General, you can enter the camp, but you have to bear the food yourself."
When Zhu Qianhu saw Liu Chengfeng agreeing, he was overjoyed and couldn't help but complain. This shopkeeper Chen was really brave. When other merchants met the officers and soldiers, who were not afraid to serve him carefully? But he asked them to speak without hesitation.
I am responsible for eating and drinking.
However, the Jubao Caravan does have the capital to be on par with the General. Their scale is large and there are officials such as the Ministry of Rites, Jinyiwei and other officials. This shows the importance attached to the palace. Otherwise, how dare Manager Chen attack Eunuch Zhao?
As long as the other party agreed to let the general bring his troops into the camp, Zhu Qianhu smiled at Liu Chengfeng and said, "That's right, then I'll report back to the general."
"Let's wait!" Liu Chengfeng suddenly called Zhu Qianhu.
Zhu Qianhu felt a thump in his heart and said with a tense face: "What else does Shopkeeper Chen have to give?"
Liu Chengfeng smiled slightly and said, "Although our food and grass are not enough to reward the soldiers, if the general enters the camp, Chen will not be able to welcome him. At that time, the general and all the adults will come to this tent together.
I am just a welcome to everyone.”
Zhu Qianhu couldn't help but relax his heart, and he smiled dryly, "This is natural, natural." Then he didn't dare to stay for too long, for fear of revealing any flaws, so he said goodbye and left.
As soon as Zhu Qianhu left, Liu Chengfeng's face suddenly became gloomy. He sat down, knocked on the desk in front of him, and then slowly said: "Go, invite Mr. Li and Qian Fang."
The two of them woke up when they heard a scout from Xuanfu outside. They were waiting for Liu Chengfeng's summons. After a moment, they arrived at the tent. Li Dongdong seemed a little nervous and his throat kept rolling, although Liu Chengfeng had gone to
He mentioned that there might be a disaster for Xiao Yun, but he still didn't believe it in his heart. It was not that he didn't believe Liu Chengfeng's guess, but that he really didn't want to believe that the Ming army and horse would attack the Ming caravan. He had been in the capital for a long time.
After all, they rarely understand the sinister nature of people, and they will not know that hundreds of miles away from the capital and at the pass of the Ming Dynasty, there will be such a group of people who completely give up any morality and righteousness for their own interests.
Now... what Liu Chengfeng guessed finally happened.
Qian Fang was familiar with the situation on the border and did not find any strange about the reactions made by the military generals here. This is not the capital, and there is no principle of staying on the front line to meet each other in the future. Some of them are the cruelty of killing people to silence them.
The two sat down separately, Liu Chengfeng sneered and said to Qian Fang: "Instructor Qian, are you all ready?"
Qian Fang said: "Mr. Marquis, you are all ready."
Liu Chengfeng nodded and sat down and said, "Then you go and let the soldiers prepare for the war."
Qian Fang didn't say anything else, just nodded calmly, pressed the knife at her waist and walked out quickly.
Li Dongdong sighed and said, "Unfortunately, this... is not a blessing for the country."
He meant that the generals at the border were so unprofessional, righteous, and shameless. The so-called loyalty and trustworthiness were vulnerable to the naked interests, which made him a little discouraged. At least it was not like this in the book. Military officers were always fierce.
Fear of death, civil servants always have the world in mind, but today, he realized that the benevolence, righteousness, courtesy and trust in books is really ridiculous in the face of reality.
Liu Chengfeng's eyes calmed down and said lightly: "Now isn't the time to sigh. Is Mr. Li afraid? If you are afraid, I will ask someone to arrange for you to go to the back camp. If you are not afraid, I will ask someone to bring a pair of armor to put on it.
With this marquis out to suppress the rebels!”
……………………………………………………………………………………………………
The camp was quiet, but in the dark, there were shadows, and messy footsteps came from all sides. The night gave them cover, and it seemed to be silent from the outside.
Zhu Qianhu, who had Liu Chengfeng's approval, immediately took his people out of the camp and ran quickly towards the horizon. There, the three thousand men were already a little impatient to wait. The night on the grassland was particularly
Although the coldness was worn with cotton armor, the wind penetrated into the human body along any gap, making people stiff all over their body and their hands and feet lost consciousness.
Wang Fen comforted the restless war horse under his seat, but his mood was the same as the war horse? Seeing the sound of horse hooves in the darkness ahead, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked a scout to confirm the person coming, and then saw it.
Zhu Qianhu rode alone.
"Sir General, the caravan has promised to let us go into the camp, but..."
"But what?" Wang Fen felt a thump in his heart.
"But then Manager Chen said that he would not arrange food for us."
Wang Fen couldn't help but smile, his mood suddenly relaxed, murderous intent flashed through his eyes, and he slowly said: "Whether to arrange or not is not his final say. It depends on whether the general's knife agrees. Everyone follows my order.
I slowly approached the caravan's camp, and when I approached the opponent's gate, I rushed in together. Everyone in this camp was determined to kill and not leave a living. Zhu Qianhu, you come and lead the way. Everyone should go in order, don't let him go.
What did the other party notice in advance?"
Zhu Qianhu responded and took the lead. The three thousand officers and soldiers were already impatient. They followed Zhu Qianhu and slowly approached the caravan camp. Wang Fen was driving forward while observing the movement of the other camp.
At this time, many bonfires were clearly set up in the caravan camp. It must have been to meet them so that they could welcome them to enter the camp for warmth. The camp gate of the camp was also creakingly opened, revealing the deep door hole, Wang Fen's
My mood was even more relaxed, and I walked slowly with the moonlight.
The caravan's camp was getting closer and closer, and you could even see the swaying figures in the camp, but Wang Fen did not order a rush. It was not the time, so I'll talk about it when I really got close to the camp gate.
When it was fifty feet, a sound came from a sentry tower behind the fence: "Is the General of Xuanfu Wang Fen, the General of Xuanfu? My shopkeeper said, "I asked General Wang to quickly enter the camp with his soldiers. The shopkeeper was already there.
The big tent prepared wine and invited the adults to enter the tent to talk."
Wang Fen did not answer, but his eyes became extremely sharp in the darkness. The veins on his arm holding the knife burst out, and then shouted: "Everyone follows the order, everyone in this camp is a thief,
You and others rushed in with the general, wiped out them, and did not leave any living mouths. Then they would reward and kill them according to their merits!"
Generally, the officers and soldiers brought were Wang Fen and the guerrillas, the generals and the confidants of the thousand households. After leaving the customs, they already knew what they were doing, so they were prepared to charge. Wang Fen's order was
Afterwards, almost everyone could not help but pull out their weapons, urged the horses under their seats, and shouted and responded: "Kill!"
Three thousand strong horses gradually accelerated their speed, quickly crossed the fence, and rushed into the camp quickly.
Wang Fen didn't care about anything at this moment. At this time, his only purpose was to kill people and kill all the living mouths. His long sword finger made a hoarse roar from his throat...
