The Yan army kept its promise and retreated fifty miles. The insignificant fifty miles, it is impossible for the Han army to set up camp with hundreds of thousands of troops, at most it will expand its defenses.

Yun Zhetian disguised himself as Jiulongyun and sneaked into the barracks for three days. Yunjie specially asked the soldiers who were guarding that day, and learned that except for Jiulongyun who walked around alone in the last night, the rest of them remained obediently, and that Jiulongyun came to him. There was no abnormal behavior on the way to camp.

This certain fact made him very puzzled, and he still couldn't figure it out after thinking about it for a few days, so he decided to report this matter to Yang Zhan.

But I don't know when and where the rumors came from.

It is said that the Yan army has been lurking in the Han army for several years, all the way to the top without any danger, and is promoted to the general. It is only waiting for a day to be the commander-in-chief, leading the three armies and annexing Dingkang in one fell swoop with the Yan family. Repeated defeats.

Rumors spread like wind, and it didn't take long to spread throughout the entire military camp. It was related to the survival of the country. All the generals and soldiers agreed that they would rather believe it, and the voice of discussion was like an undercurrent surging in the deep sea.

In recent years, few generals have made outstanding military exploits and conformed to the rumors.

If Tong Huai hadn't angrily relayed the story to Yun Jie, he would have no idea that he had become a target.

Yun Jie didn't care about this, and still reported Yun Zhetian's disguise as a caravan at the end of last year.

Yang Zhan was very surprised after hearing this, and also puzzled about its purpose, but in connection with the rumors that have been circulating recently, the answer is ready to come out.

Judging from the current situation, spreading rumors to confuse the army is probably the opponent's desperate move.

The whole army was stunned, and the rumors quickly subsided.

But heaven does not reward diligence.

On this day, Yunjie was supervising the construction of the equipment warehouse, and a group of guards came to pass the message.

When he reached the commander's tent, the guards stopped him, "General Ling, please remove your sword."

Yun Jie was stunned for a moment, he had never unloaded his sword when meeting Yang Zhan, so he obeyed his orders and handed over his sword before he could think about it.

Yang Zhan sat behind Shuai's case, his face was dark and cloudy.

Yun Jie knelt down, "See you, Commander."

Yang Zhan pointed casually and fixed his gaze, "Well, General Ling, please come to ask me something, do you have any relatives in your family?"

"I have been making a living with my mother since I was a child. My mother has passed away and I have no relatives."

"Where's your father?"

Yun Jie hesitated for a while, then replied, "There is no father."

"Dead too?"

"I have never met my father, and my mother never mentioned it."

"Do you know your father's name?"

"I don't know."

"So you follow your mother's surname?"

"My mother...is surnamed Ling." Yun Jie began to feel a little uneasy.

Yang Zhan stood up and sighed heavily, "General Ling, I don't care about the righteousness of a general, come here, take them down, put them in confinement, and don't visit without my order."

Yun Jie was stunned, and hurriedly asked, "What crime did this subordinate commit?"

Two armed guards entered the tent, one on the left and one on the right stood beside him.

Yang Zhan's eyebrows were deep, "It's true that rumors only stop with wise men, but everything is pointing at you. I have to pay attention to it. When the facts are found out, it will be fair to you."

"Please tell the commander-in-chief!" Yun Jie asked.

Yang Zhan was silent for a moment, and after thinking about it, he said, "There are rumors about your life experience in the army these days."

"My background?"

"To say that you are the son of Yun Zhetian is just groundless, but it is not nonsense. Your surname is not Ling. I went to see you specially before, why did he do this? The last time the two armies faced each other, Yun Zhetian’s martial arts were obvious to all. I have fought with him for ten years. As far as I know, this man is surly, violent, aggressive, tolerant and changeable, but when you stabbed him He lost without saying a word afterwards. Maybe this is all his conspiracy, but with so many facts in front of me, I have to be cautious."

After hearing this, Yun Jie knew that he could not explain it, so he said sadly,

"The one who cleans up is himself. The other party intends to disturb the morale of the army. I hope the commander will investigate clearly."

Yang Zhan looked at him deeply and said no more.

In the eyes of others, he has confirmed the rumors - the son of Yunzhetian, lurking in Dingkang and waiting for an opportunity, the two sides should cooperate internally and externally to push him to the position of general.

The worse consequences are that the three armies will be wiped out or captured as captives and turn against each other.

Regardless of whether it is because of the clouds covering the sky, so that one plan fails and another plan is used, and regardless of whether his background is true or false, in short, the most important point is that the morale of one's own army is in chaos. In order to stabilize the morale of the army, it is imperative for Yang Zhan to take him into custody. .

Thinking of this level, Yun Jie finally had nothing to say, and left the camp with his left and right.

The place of detention is a narrow dark room, separated by a wooden fence, like a separate cell, with small skylights on all sides, and the light is meager.

The cloud steps are inside the fence, and the space is only enough for the size of the body.

This place is much nicer than his shabby house.

In the first few days, he stayed quite comfortably, with three meals provided, and passed the time by observing the light and shade.

A few days later, he heard thunderous drums, and knew that the two armies were at war. He cared about the battle situation and asked the soldiers who delivered the food, but the other party kept silent, left the plate and left, really indifferent.He doesn't care about this, who told him that he is not good at communicating with each other on weekdays.

Another few days.He smelled a strange smell from his body, and Lazar had an outlet, which was the reason why he hadn't showered for a long time.He doesn't care either.

But he began to think about the repeated rumors pointing at him, who was instigating behind this, and what was the purpose. He thought he was not good at dealing with people, but he never had any grudges with others.

When his hair was greasy and clumped, Tong Huai led three or four soldiers and brought a large bucket of clean water.

After dismissing a group of people, Tong Huai, with tears in his eyes, rushed to the fence and called him softly.

"Why are you here?" Fortunately, Tong Huai did not implicate him.

"I begged the commander again and again, and the commander agreed. General, these are clean clothes." Tong Huai handed him the clothes.

Yun Jie washed his hair and wiped his body through the fence, naturally he couldn't finish asking acquaintances.

"Have you started a war with the Yan army? How is the battle going?"

"The Yan army keeps provoking and has fought four or five battles. The chariots made by the general are very powerful."

"That's good, are there still rumors going on outside?"

"I can still hear it from time to time. I checked secretly, but I couldn't find the source of the rumor. Did the general offend someone but he didn't know?"

"You have been with me for a long time, but have you ever seen anyone offended by me? When I was the captain of the envoy, I only had that team of soldiers under my command. Every time there was a war, the number of soldiers was reduced. There were not many old faces left. How could I go? Offend them."

Tong Huai held a ladle of water in his hand, glanced around, handed it to Yun Jie, put his face close to the fence, and said in a soft voice, "A few days ago, General Wei Wei proposed to the Marshal, to use you, General, to threaten the Yan army. Withdrew from the national border, but was rejected by the Marshal."

Yun Jie thought of this person, but he was not in a hurry to perform meritorious service and atone for his crime just because he witnessed him being punished.Don't say that he is not Yun Zhetian's son, even if he is, Yun Zhetian is probably his only son. There is an old saying that a tiger's poison does not eat its offspring, but there will be exceptions for an ambitious tiger.If you really use the tactic of intimidation, you can't help but make Yan Jun a joke.

Yun Jie scattered a handful of watery hair and undressed, "I know who I am, Tong Huai, don't bother to help me, just do your job well, if the commander finds out, I'm afraid it will only cause trouble and anger Upper body, and remember not to be reckless on the battlefield."

"Yes." Tong Huai responded in dismay, turning his head to scoop up water.

After a while, his eyes lit up, but he hesitated.

Seeing that the cloud steps were about to be cleaned up, he finally gritted his teeth and said,

"General, actually... there is another way to try."

Yun Jie glanced at it, knowing what Tong Huai meant, he took a dry cloth and sat against the wall, "No need to try, you go back, take care of yourself."

Tong Huai did not follow up, followed a few steps, and asked urgently, "Why? Han Ji is also joining the army. He must have returned to the capital if he is not in the barracks. The commander is busy with the war and has no time. Write him a letter and let him find out. What's wrong with the truth, besides, he didn't treat you..."

Yun Jie didn't reply, and lowered his head to wipe his hair,

"I believe that the commander-in-chief will make a clear decision."

Half a month after the incident, Han Ji knew it long ago.

(...Tong Huai is a good boy, he didn't do it.)
