Seeing that there was no one in front of the pier, let alone a boat, Gu Junci couldn't help but frowned, and looked at Xiao Yuan beside him with his hips on his hips: "What should we do? We can't swim back either."

Xiao Yuan looked back at Gu Junci for a while, squatted by the water in front of the pier, reached out to explore the water, but was pulled up by Gu Junci:

"No, you really want to swim back."

Xiao Yuan raised his lips and smiled, stood up and said, "Of course not. I just wanted to see if there were any marks left by the boat on the surface of the water. It seems that there are not, Mr. Ci, let's go upstream."

Gu Junci was puzzled: "What are you doing upstream?"

Xiao Yuan smiled without saying a word, just pulled Gu Junci's sleeve and walked upstream.

The setting sun in the evening dyed the entire sky like fire. In the scorching summer, only at this moment can there be a breeze blowing, mixed with some dusty breath.

From a distance, Gu Junci saw the boat docked upstream, he happily glanced at Xiao Yuan who was beside him, and hurriedly rushed over.

When he got off his horse and ran towards the ship, he heard the sound of horseshoes outside, and the people in the cabin also came out, standing on the deck at the moment, looking at Gu Junci.

"Brother Huo?" Gu Junci was surprised, and looked back at the calm Xiao Yuan, watching him dismount and handing the whip to the soldiers who came down, and then walked onto the deck.

Gu Junci was even more puzzled: "What's going on?"

Huo Situ hurriedly saluted before saying: "The Second Highness and the military adviser left me and brother Yang with a bag of advice, saying that the matter will be over in the middle of July, and let us stop the boat at the upper reaches of the pier to wait for orders in early July. I thought I would have to wait another two days."

Xiao Yuan said: "After the matter is over, we will rush back immediately, let's go back to the camp first."

Huo Situ saluted, and then said: "Where is the military division? Why are there only two of you?"

Gu Junci patted him on the shoulder: "The military division reunited with old friends, and they still need to be resettled, so it will take some time."

"By the way, after sending us back, bring the boat over. The military division may return to the camp in a few days." Xiao Yuan said.

"Here." Huo Situ accepted the order with cupped fists, and then passed the order down tomorrow, driving the boat to the opposite bank.

Gu Junci stood on the deck, looking at the place on the other side that was illuminated by the setting sun, feeling the breeze blowing on his face, his mood gradually relaxed.

Turning around, he saw Huo Situ reporting the situation of the camp to Xiao Yuan in a serious manner, and gradually saw Xiao Yuan's sudden change of expression.

Gu Junci walked over in a hurry: "Did something happen in the barracks?"

Xiao Yuan frowned, with a dignified expression, Huo Situ looked at Gu Jun and said:

"We have inquired about this Luzhou Song family before, and there are no capable generals, and their generals are even more mediocre. However, for some reason, last month their Song family recruited a dark-skinned, nine-foot-long man. The fierce man was the vanguard, holding a pair of iron whips, and in just two or three days, he captured our three checkpoints in Daliang and 21 camps."

Listening to Huo Situ's words, Gu Junci captured Sanguan 21 villages in three days without having to widen his eyes, which is amazing.

With such a powerful person in Luzhou, I'm afraid it will not be easy to bring Luzhou into Daliang's territory in the future.

"This subordinate was out of breath, so he led the troops to meet the enemy, but he didn't want to be his opponent and be injured by him. Brother Yang said that His Highness the Second Highness will be back soon, so he asked me to come here, and wait for you while recuperating." Huo Situ lowered his eyes and said.

Gu Junci hurriedly said: "Such a powerful person, I would like to meet him."

Xiao Yuan pondered for a while, then looked at Gu Junci and said: "What if we recruit him?"

Both Gu Junci and Huo Situ looked shocked, looking directly at Xiao Yuan: "It's good that such a strong general can be recruited, but what if he..."

Xiao Yuan sighed: "It's okay, let's go back to the camp first."

Gu Junci and the two of them agreed until the boat docked and said a brief goodbye to Huo Situ, then they drove back to the camp with Xiao Yuan in the starry night.

The scouts along the way had already sent the news of their return back to the barracks. When they stopped at the barracks, Yang Junfang and the others had been waiting for a long time. They enter the barracks.

The furnishings in the commander's tent are still the same as before leaving, except for the base map and sand table of the march.

The gang sent two bowls of noodles, but Xiao Yuan didn't move, just stood in front of the marching map with Gu Junci, looked at the captured camps, and then lowered his eyes in thought.

Yang Junfang said: "Second Highness, General Gu, you have worked hard on the journey, let's have something to eat first."

Xiao Yuan said: "Who is that black-faced general in Luzhou, can you find out?"

Yang Junfang was stunned, and then saluted: "I found out that this person is named Yu Shiyao. He was originally a blacksmith in Maoyang City. He was born with supernatural powers. Later, he was recruited by the Song family, so he went."

"Then what about him now?" Xiao Yuan asked.

Asked about this, Yang Junfang didn't know what was going on, and even laughed out loud, until he saw Xiao Yuan's serious expression, he said:

"There is a marshal under the Song family in Luzhou, named Song Heyuan, who is the younger brother of the head of the Song family in Luzhou. People captured our Chaosanguan 21 village in three days, and the march was too fast, and the marshal couldn't keep up with the large army, so he came up with an idea to let the vanguard go to the rear to escort the grain and grass."

"Pfft... It's thanks to the Marshal who figured out how to escort the food and grass." Gu Junci smiled helplessly.

Xiao Yuan frowned slightly, unable to smile: "This person is really a threat to our army, I still want to recruit him and take him under my command."

Gu Junci stared back: "I said, A Yuan, you don't know what kind of temperament this person is, so you just want to recruit him?"

Xiao Yuan nodded: "According to Song Heyuan's behavior style, this Yu Shiyao must be restricted everywhere in the Luzhou Song Clan, and it will not last long. How about it, Jun Ci, follow me tomorrow to see the Song Clan's camp ahead. , When the military division returns, we will discuss a set of countermeasures."

Gu Junci responded, seeing the face beside him that was almost lumpy, he hurriedly said: "I'm hungry."

Only then did Xiao Yuan come to his senses, looked at his face and said: "Let's make it up tonight and talk about it tomorrow."

Gu Junci smiled and ate a bowl of noodles. Thinking of the military advisers who were still near Luoyang area, he couldn't help but frown, and said in a low voice:

"I just think it's a pity, A Yuan, you have the heart to recruit the vanguard who can fight in the enemy camp, but Brother Xu and the others..."

"Don't worry, people have their own aspirations, so don't force others to make things difficult. If they come to trust me, I will be happy, but if they have their own plans, I can't put them under house arrest like Wang Jianzhang did." Xiao Yuan said.

Gu Junci looked at him hurriedly: "A Yuan, I think you are very chic."

Xiao Yuan was puzzled.

Gu Junci smiled and said: "Look, you don't have a deep friendship with them, but you are willing to help me for me. They are obviously capable generals, but you don't force them to do so because of your life-saving. En will follow you, your realm, even twenty Wang Jianzhangs can't reach it."

Xiao Yuan stared at Gu Junci for a while, then lowered his eyes and smiled: "Well, thank you Brother Gu for your compliment."

At this moment, Yang Junfang, who was still standing in the tent, touched his head in embarrassment, always feeling that he was a bit redundant in this tent.

The way those two people looked at each other and smiled, why did they look so eye-catching.
