Korean barracks.

In a remote main tent, the two sat and stood with frozen expressions.

After a long time, Yun Jie finally spoke out, let out a long breath, and looked at Fan Sheng.

What was amazing was that Fan Sheng, who had always been stern-faced, was actually moved when he met his gaze, and pulled out a very helpless wry smile.

"General Ling, at least you should reply, otherwise the master will most likely disregard state affairs and come to the barracks."

Yun Jie looked at the letter on the table.

Since he fled back to the military camp, Fan Sheng came here every ten days, and this is already the seventh letter.

The black and white words were written from the bottom of his heart, and he felt chills and shouted from all the pores of his body. If Fei Fei was present, his calm face would have collapsed long ago.

However, he had doubts, he did not hesitate to pretend to cater to and resorted to extraordinary measures, not only tied up people, but also knocked them out, Han Ji really let him go like this?Han Ji wasted all his time trying to trap him in the capital, and this desire for monopoly made him panic.

In the past, I only thought that Han Ji's strategy of war was handy on the battlefield, but I never thought that this man plans everything, and the reason sounds very reasonable.

Han Tang once asked him, what would he do if he knew and still waited?

Yun Jie thought about it, he did have concerns for Han Ji, but if he knew that he was still waiting, he would have to respond.Comparing the two, he can atone in any way, but he must not break his promise.

Han Ji did this because he knew him.

But life and death are unpredictable on the battlefield, and the personal relationship between children becomes insignificant.

In other words, peace in the world is far away, and Zhang Zhixiao may not be able to wait for long, and he cannot be selfish enough to keep him waiting.

There is not only one choice for many things.

Han Ji shouldn't have plotted against him.

"General Ling." Fan Sheng spoke again.

"Wait a moment." Yun Jie took out a pen and paper, dipped it in ink, and wrote neatly.

After a while, he folded the papers, stuffed them into an envelope and handed them to Fan Sheng.

Fan Sheng immediately bid farewell with fists clasped, he frequently went back and forth between the military camp and the palace, and finally got a reply, it was time to return to the capital in a hurry, even the old master rode away without saying goodbye.

Yun Jie returned to the barracks from the capital without any order for enfeoffment, and Fan Sheng came many times, and it was nothing important, Yang Zhan was suspicious but didn't ask carefully.

As an uncle, Han Ji's thoughts became more and more unpredictable.

So Yun Jie asked for orders to move out of the main camp, and asked to train the newly recruited soldiers, and he agreed.

In this way, if there is no major issue, the ordinary military order will be passed on by the superior general of Yun Tier. He seldom goes to the command post and devotes himself to training the army. It is almost to the point of madness. Is he torturing the recruits or is he torturing himself.

"Reporting to the commander, there is a suspicious situation ten miles to the west. The sentinel reported that a six-member caravan is heading towards the camp."

Yang Zhan was taken aback, stopped writing and thought for a while, and said, "Order General Ling to go and investigate carefully, he is the closest to there."

The wind was bitterly cold, and the sky was clouded with dark clouds.

Yun Jie stood on the high platform of the military academy field, focusing on the thousands of recruits below.

Although the cold wind blows like a knife, no one makes mistakes and slackens.

On the battlefield, life or death depends on a single shot in your hand.

At this time, Tong Huai hurried up to the high platform,

"General, there is a situation ten miles to the west. The commander-in-chief ordered that the general please go and investigate."

Yun Jie said to Wu Chang, "Continue."

That made the corporal continue to shout the password like a bell.

A group of cavalry quickly surrounded the caravan.

The six people were frightened, turned around and ran away in a hurry, and immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

One of them tore off the coarse cloth wrapped around his face, trembling, "Master, please forgive me, we are passing merchants...forgive me..."

Six people and three carriages, the clothes are quite messy, there are a pile of half-full sacks on the cart, it seems that it has been robbed, the sacks are damaged everywhere, and some unknown things leaked out.

Yun Jie signaled all the soldiers to dismount.

After the soldiers searched, no hidden weapons were found.

So the questioning begins.

"What's in the bag? Since you are merchants, where did you come from and why did you come here? You don't know the war at the border, and you are not allowed to trespass in places where the army is strong?"

Xu Shi, who just tore off the wrapping cloth just now, has a rough face with a full mouth and beard, but his voice is trembling,

"Master Huijun... We...we are merchants from Zhejiang and Jiangsu. We took a deal and shipped a batch of medicinal materials...to...Xishu...who knows that the seller is missing. After inquiring, we found out that they moved their family to take refuge, so we had to go to... Going back, three days ago, we were robbed by robbers... who took us captive to this strange place. Both our money and maps... were robbed, so we lost our way... These medicines are all rare things, and those robbers didn't know them. We panicked and fooled around..."

It does make sense, as far as the border of Western Shu, there are often robbers in and out, most of them are in a group of a dozen people, and there is no fixed hiding place, and the imperial court has sent troops several times but they have not been able to eradicate them all.

At this moment, Tong Huai said,

"Escort masters walk darts, merchants buy and sell, how can they not know the way when they leave the map? Don't lie!"

As he said that, the long knife was unsheathed, and it was placed on the back of the head's neck, exerting force, as if it was about to raise the head and drop it in the next moment.

The cold wind was howling, and the head was sweating wildly, crying, "Forgive me, I dare not tell lies, the military master can tell just by looking at the medicinal materials." He pointed to the carriage with trembling fingers, "The bags below are full of Rare medicinal materials, Ganoderma lucidum, Ambergris, Polygonum multiflorum... Snow lotus... Even if the military master has never seen these, there are always military doctors in the army..."

The voice came suddenly with a slap, and he closed his eyes and softened his hands, and fell headfirst into the mud.

Immediately afterwards, several people who were kneeling together crawled to support the leader.

"Master, master!"

"Master, please let us go. The master was injured by the robbers and insisted on leading us out of the desert. We have...haven't entered 1.1 meters of water for three days...please let us go..."

His face was snow-white and his eyes were blurred, and the group of people were in a state of fainting from starvation.

Blood gradually seeped out from under the shirt, Yun Jie squatted down and raised a corner, the wound was randomly wrapped with a coarse cloth, the whole cloth was already soaked in blood.

"Take me back to the barracks first." He ordered, walked to the carriage, stretched out his hand and squeezed into the pile of sacks, and found a shriveled brown thing from the bottom. He sniffed it once, and it seemed to be Ganoderma lucidum. .

The medicinal materials are real, but the authenticity of the identity is impossible to check.Sending people to Zhejiang and Jiangsu would be a big deal. In order to prevent Yan's secret work from being mixed up, Yang Zhan ordered the group to live in the outermost part of the camp, and sent troops to guard day and night. They were not allowed to move around privately.

Three days later.

In the middle of the night, Yun Jie was about to fall asleep when Tong Huai's voice came from outside the tent.

"General."

"Come in."

Tong Huai was dressed in iron armor, with a sad expression on his face.

This kid has been full of worries since the group of merchants came to the barracks.

"What's the matter?" Yun Jie put on his coat and sat behind the table.

Tong Huai said nothing.

"Still thinking about those merchants?"

Tong Huai curled his lips and said, "I still don't think it's possible for them to get lost. Just like my father, who has been traveling north and south for decades, he calculates the route before taking the darts. He knows all the forks and inns along the way. And the rare things they transport The things are worth thousands of gold, and the military doctor said that those are medicinal materials that can bring the dead back to life, so they must be cautious and careful."

Yun Jie nodded, "What you said is not unreasonable. You have been in charge of supervision for these three days, but did you find any changes?"

Tong Huai drooped the corners of his mouth and snorted dissatisfied, "No..."

"That's it," Yun Jie thought for a while, "I will see the commander tomorrow, and send them back. After three days, they will take a carriage on their way back. There should be no serious problems."

Tong Huai's eyes flashed immediately, "Okay, okay! Let them go as soon as possible."

Yun Jie shook his head and laughed, got up and got ready to go to bed, "If the group of people are not spies, they are the people of our country, your attitude is... um... let's go back, it's getting late."

Yun Jie took off his coat, and when he turned around, he saw Tong Huai standing where he was, with burning eyes and a shy smile on his face.

I didn't know what to say for a while,

He frowned, breathed out, turned cold, and waved his hand at Tong Huai, motioning him to back down.

But that Tong Huai would have misunderstood it or something, suddenly strode up to him, and plunged into his arms, the cold iron armor was painful.

Before he could speak, Tong Huai began to tear at his pitifully thin underwear, murmuring incoherently as if he lost his mind,

"Yunjie...General Ling...take me, please...take me..."

Yun Jie hastened to catch Tong Huai's restless hands, tossing back and forth and finally managed to get a good grip, but his clothes were shapeless, his chest was half open, and his neck and shoulders were exposed.

"Tong Huai!"

With a yell, Tong Huai finally stopped, and lowered his head and eyes, not daring to look at Yun Jie.

At the same time, a soldier outside the tent said, "General Ling, the merchant surnamed Jiu is here to see you, he said he has something important to do."

Yun Jie glanced at Tong Huai and grabbed his arm with both hands.

In the next moment, Tong Huai turned around and ran away, passing by the Long merchant who had entered the account.

Xu Shi, the nine merchants, was fascinated by Tong Huai, only to hear an ouch, he stumbled on his left foot and fell to the ground on his face, with two nosebleeds winding out of the hole.

Seeing this, Yun Jie reacted immediately to help, his clothes were not neatly prepared, and the jade pendant was dangling in the air.

The nine merchants raised their faces and were attracted by the jade pendant. Without wiping their nosebleeds, they grabbed the jade pendant and glanced at it greedily.

Yun Jie straightened up, hid the jade pendant in his clothes, turned around and gave him a clean towel.

"Thank you, thank you..." The nine merchants wiped away the nosebleeds that stained their thick black beards.

Because of his sloppy beard, he could only see the upper half of his face clearly, with a few fine lines around his eyes and cheeks, his eyes were sharp, and he was about to middle-aged.

"Uncle, why are you looking for me in the middle of the night?" Yun Jie put on his coat, and if he continued like this, he probably would catch a cold.

"Heh... the young one's name is Jiulongyun. Just now I saw the general's close-fitting jade pendant, which is very valuable. The young one has been around for many years and has never seen such a valuable treasure. May I ask the general where it came from?"

"My mother's relic," Yun Jie said casually. The behavior of this person before and after made him curious. "Your surname is Jiu? I'm ignorant. There are still people with the surname Jiu in this world? Which Jiu?"

"Nine nine 81 nine." Nine merchants replied.

Yun Jie pointed to the seat, "Please. Why are you looking for me?"

The nine merchants sat down in a proper manner, "Small considerations, considerations, decisions, and farewells. I will leave tomorrow morning. The border soldiers regard death as if they are returning to fight for the country. It is really... admirable! We ordinary people, born in the blessings, do not know the blessings, feel ashamed Ah! So I don’t dare to stay longer, and I’m really sorry to bother the soldiers, ah, by the way, all those medicinal materials are donated to the barracks, which is also my contribution to the country, please accept it!” The words can be described as emotional And flourishing.

Going down the cloud steps by the candlelight, he unconsciously hooked his lips, his thoughts suddenly turned, his eyes were lingering,

"Uncle spends money like water, he is a model for the world. I don't know why you are injured, but you don't use medicine? You don't know that those medicinal materials are rare in the world. If you chew them casually, your wounds will not fester. It almost hurt your life."

Nine Merchant's face was obviously blank for a moment, and he laughed twice stiffly, "Heh, heh, that's because the little one regards money as his life, and now he has experienced a lot. Compared with the soldiers, he really has no place to be ashamed, no place to be ashamed..."

The nine merchants bowed their backs, looking ashamed.

Yun Jie stared straight at him, thoughtful.

Then he got up and walked out of the table, "Thank you so much, I will report to the commander in the morning and send someone to send you out of the camp."

The nine merchants hurriedly stood up, nodded and bowed again and again, "Thank you, thank you!"
