Chapter 181 The Young Man Selling Firewood

"Move to Wangyuan County?" Li Ming looked at Zhu Jun and pointed to the map, but he didn't quite understand.

Wangyuan County is in Hanyang County, while Beigong Boyu raised troops in Jincheng County and has now entered Wuwei.Although it is possible to enter Sili through Hanyang, but this road is mountainous and not suitable for horsemen to walk; as long as Beigong Boyu is not stupid, he must go to Anding County to enter Sili. Anyone with a little common sense knows this matter.

"I'll talk about it later! Sun Jian, your mission is to be stationed in Qian County (later Qianyang County)!" Zhu Jun looked at Sun Jian.

"Here!" Sun Jian replied without hesitation.

"Wang Yu, you and I go north to Anding, then enter Wuwei, and face the Beigong Boyu tribe head-on! Remember, you can only lose but not win, and you must attract them to Hanyang County! As long as the Beigong Boyu tribe enters the mountains , Li Ming took his tail and seized his grain road! Sun Jian's troops came from Qian County, and we will surround and wipe them out here!" Zhu Jun said, pointing to the mountain range leading to Sidi in Hanyang County.

Then he raised his head and added: "There are many changes on the battlefield, and the situation is difficult to explain clearly. You must be prepared for sudden changes in the situation at any time. Once you receive an order, you must be ready to go out at any time!"

The meaning of the last sentence is actually what he said to Sun Jian and Li Ming. The meaning can be summed up as follows: I send you out to garrison places, but it does not mean that you can enjoy yourself. Once the military situation is delayed, hehe...

"Here!" At this point, who else would not know the meaning, so they all clapped their hands in response.

Sun Jian was the easiest. Starting from the Western Han Dynasty all the way westward, he arrived at Qian County in less than three hundred miles. There were no mountains during the period, and the journey was smooth; Zhu Jun and Wang Yu had to make a big bend, at least more than 700 miles; Li Ming's side The main thing is to pass through the mountains connecting Hanyang County and Sili, which is actually the Maiji Mountain Scenic Area in later generations.

"These days, there are scenic spots everywhere, but what I yearn for more is the forest of steel!" Li Ming looked at this original official road built entirely by manpower, and looked at the lush vegetation on both sides, but he felt a little bit of a feeling in his heart. other ideas.

In these years, the natural scenery has been preserved to the greatest extent. In this era, tourist attractions such as oxygen bars abound, but no one will deliberately go to the forest.

The two sides of the mountains are not really cliffs, but they are still stretches of mountains, and the vegetation is very lush, giving people the feeling that a tiger or a wild boar will suddenly pop out of it.Dian Jie and Xiao Yao were on both sides of the investigation. In fact, according to the instructions, they could also buy some game appropriately for extra meals tonight. After all, fresh meat cannot be used as military supplies.

Xu Huang took the horse army, which had expanded to 800 people, and spread out far away to investigate.A lot of horses were captured during the campaign against the Huns, but only [-] of them could be used. The hooves of the other horses had been damaged, or for other reasons. Mating and reproduction.

From Xi'an to Wangyuan County, it is about 700 miles, Li Ming is no easier than Zhu Jun.Trying to walk eighty miles every day, it took almost ten days to get here.Fortunately, the consumption of food is not large, and there is a lot of game in the mountains. Don't kill cubs or pregnant females, and just keep some males properly, so that hunting will not stop.

"It's really dusty!" Li Ming couldn't help but sigh when he officially arrived in Wangyuan County.After leaving Sili, although it is not considered to be billowing yellow sand, there is much more dust than Sili, and the whole body is covered with dust along the way.

"Accordingly, in this era, there is no over-cultivation. How come the wind and sand are so big!" Li Ming shook his head. There are rivers along the road, so washing and so on is not a problem.

"It is said that in the bitterly cold Northwest, there is much less rain than in Sili, and many people are forced to go without bathing for three days. It's okay here, but if you go deeper in the northwest, it will be really rolling yellow sand! "Xu Huang said with a smile, he is from Hedong, and he has been to the Northwest when he was young, so he still understands the situation here.At least, everything is much better than Li Ming and others.

"According to the time, the general should have arrived at Wuwei, and I don't know what's going on!" Li Ming looked to the northeast. If the time is correct, Zhu Jun should have already fought with Beigong Boyu's troops.

"The chariot general is just luring the enemy, not fighting directly, so it should be fine!" Xi Zhicai said.

"Okay!" Li Ming shrugged, "Since it's not our turn to worry, why bother? Leave the manpower to set up the camp, Zhicai and Zhang Mo, do you want to follow me into the county? Call on the county magistrate!"

"The subordinate is willing to go!" Of course, the two of them would not refuse. Li Ming's so-called look, I am afraid that he wants to buy some ingredients in the county town. If he chooses well, he will be lucky tonight.

Li Ming didn't talk nonsense, and directly led the two of them into the county.Fortunately, before coming, Xu Huang had already reported to the magistrate of Wangyuan County, explained their purpose of coming, and showed Zhu Jun's military order documents.The county magistrate did not need to provide military supplies, so the army was stationed outside the city.

It is said that the Qiang people are in chaos, but in fact the county magistrate is even more eager to have the imperial army come to sit in the town.

Perhaps it was because of the war, the county town was actually not lively, everyone looked hurried, and left in a hurry after completing the transaction.Fortunately, Beigong Boyu usually does not go south, so there are still many merchants coming and going.

"Selling firewood!" Li Ming heard a thick voice calling out as he passed the market.It's not surprising to say that there are loud voices, more or less there are always a few with loud voices, but this voice is not born with a loud voice, but the effect of internal energy circulation and the sound radiating out.

"A qi practitioner is actually selling firewood?" Li Ming thought it was interesting, so he walked over.

I saw a firewood pile from a distance, and I didn't know how much firewood there was. Li Ming went up to lift it up. Each bundle was at least [-] kilograms, which meant that there were at least ten tons of firewood here.In addition to the firewood for the fire, there are also a lot of wood, the two ends of which are sawn off and the best material.

There are more than a dozen young people around the firewood, but they are basically looking at the firewood, and only one young man is calling there.Some people came to buy firewood one after another, obviously attracted by the loud voice of the young people.

"How much is the firewood?" Li Ming stepped forward and looked at the young man. The boy looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, but he looked like a young man with a height of 1.8 meters, but his nutrition was a bit weak, his complexion was sallow and emaciated.

"Thirty cents a bundle, the same price! If it's the firewood over there, it's more expensive, eighty cents each!" The young man pointed to the firewood, and then to the wood.Firewood can only be burned, but wood can be used to make furniture or other things, and the price is of course more expensive.

"This price is considered affordable!" Li Ming nodded, "It's just that I'm more curious about you. Dare I ask your name?"

"Are you here to buy firewood, or to make trouble?" Before the young man could speak, the other young people stood up directly.

"My name is Pound. If you don't want to buy firewood, please don't bother us! Please!" Pound cupped his hands and signaled Li Ming to leave.It could be seen that he was somewhat wary of Li Ming.
