404 No City Found

In order to protect himself, Kang Tu immediately betrayed Yan Lingfei, explaining: "I don't know him, and I don't know what he does."

Yan Lingfei stared at him, hatred could be seen in his eyes and expression, and then he was slapped on the head by the inspector: "What are you looking at?"

Yan Lingfei stood up straight, ready to be beaten.

In fact, during the battle, the laws and regulations were not so strict. They were all out to fight, and those who could pass each other passed directly. Yan Lingfei was released after a few warnings. Before leaving, he pointed with two fingers Pointing to his own eyes, he turned around and pointed to Kang Tu, as if you were waiting for me to settle accounts with you after autumn.

Kang Tu wasn't too scared, and took a nap after the last wave of patrols passed.At dawn, I saw Li Xin and others standing guard in front of the general's tent, probably standing there overnight.

There might be a tough battle to be fought today, he took a breath and went to wait for the distribution of breakfast.

Liu Miao's hat almost covered her eyes, and she walked with her head slightly raised. A large pot was fixed on her shoulder, and there were a lot of dry food in it.Behind him was a man with a large bag in his hand.

"Twenty for each tent," Liu Miao knocked on the pot and said loudly, "Come and get them one by one."

"What's going on," Kang Tu heard someone muttering casually behind him, "When will this be finished?"

According to the rules, it is true that every ration is specific to every soldier, one radish and one hole, and it should be like this when it is distributed.But most of the time, they are not so strict. It is enough to leave [-] dry food in front of each account.Today, Liu Miao's sudden assignment like this is bound to delay time and make everyone a little dissatisfied.

With Liu Miao's sharp eyes and ears, he must have heard these words well. Holding an iron rod in his hand, he walked to a tent, knocked on the iron pot, and said, "Line up in line and come one by one to get it!"

It was not the first time that everyone had experienced this, and they all stood in a row silently. Liu Miao looked up at them because her hat blocked her eyes, and it was a thin man's turn. He took the dry food without looking up. Turning around to leave, Liu Miao stopped him with a stick and said, "Wait, which team are you in?"

The man turned his head inexplicably and said, "Team five."

Liu Miao asked the person next to him, "Do you know him?"

"I know." The person in the same tent took a look and said.

Liu Miao then asked, "Do you know his name?"

The soldier: "..."

Liu Miao asked the person next to him again: "Do you know him? Tell me what is his name?"

"Master Jun," a man ran over from afar, came up to hold Liu Miao, and said in a low voice, "He's my younger brother, and we temporarily changed tents yesterday."

Liu Miao glanced at the thin man again, this time he probably believed it, and didn't ask any more questions.

The man continued to flatter him: "Please do me a favor, don't tell the general, my younger brother is bullied in the seventh team and can't sleep every day, just this time, it won't happen again next time."

Liu Miao waved his hand to let him go, and then said, "Next!"

That's why I won't say it anymore, the man hurriedly said: "Thank you, thank you, just tell me what you need in the future."

Liu Miao didn't need him, it was as if he hadn't said such a thing, and he didn't take it seriously, and continued to distribute dry food.

He has keen senses, and can accurately grasp the subtle changes in people's expressions and voices, and because of his good memory, although the people here can't be called by name, there is no problem in recognizing them.

It was a perfect job for him to do.Among so many people, it would be terrible if people sent by the enemy mixed in.

They took it upon themselves to distribute dry food half an hour earlier, but they still couldn't catch up.

Sun Bin was sitting in the tent and was dressing when he heard a voice and asked, "What's going on outside?"

Because of his physical problems, he would be accompanied by someone to take care of him when he was marching or fighting. A middle-aged man with sideburns and armor went out to take a look, and came back to report: "It's delivering dry rations."

Sun Bin controlled the four-wheeled vehicle under him by himself, lifted the curtain to take a look, and suddenly asked, "Whose order is this?"

"My subordinates don't know," the middle-aged man said, "Should I ask now?"

Sun Bin looked at Liu Miao who was about to finish serving breakfast, paused for a while, and then said, "Call him over here."

"Yes."

Liu Miao bowed and saluted, and said loudly and authentically: "My subordinates will see the military advisor."

Sun Bin looked at him for a while and asked, "What's your name?"

"Liu Miao."

"I've never seen you," said Sun Bin, with a long ginger crown on his head, well-proportioned eyebrows, full atrium, looking very kind, and he was very different from other warriors.At this time, he asked, "Have you been distributing food and grass all this time?"

"No," Liu Miao said, "I am the latest batch to join the army."

Sun Bin heard the words and asked: "Then how did you get such an errand?"

People who distribute food and patrol are no different from ordinary soldiers on the surface, but not everyone can do it. Generally, they are trusted cronies of the owner, people with clean backgrounds and behaviors.There is nothing wrong with marching and fighting. Almost all team leaders, building owners, and generals start here.

Doing well in this step means that it is possible to get promoted.

Liu Miao said bluntly, "I bought it."

Sun Bin was not surprised by his answer, but smiled and said, "How much did it cost?"

"Half a year's ration." Liu Miao said.

Sun Bin didn't intend to pursue this issue. He glanced outside and finally got to the point: "Who asked you to distribute dry food like this?"

"Someone reminded my subordinates," Liu Miao said calmly and respectfully with his attitude still neither humble nor overbearing. "He asked me to do this after departure. Within three days, I can make great achievements and be appreciated by the general and military adviser."

"who is it?"

"Subordinates don't know."

"You do not know?"

"I really don't know."

At this time, the curtain of the big tent was suddenly lifted, and a clean-looking but burly young man walked in, who looked a little out of place. He was wearing a general's armor, and he had to bend over to enter the tent.

Liu Miao bowed, raised her hands in front of her chest, bowed her head and said, "See General."

Tian Ji raised his hand slightly, glanced over him, and said to Sun Bin, "What are you doing so early in the morning?"

Sun Bin smiled and said, "The general came just in time."

Liu Miao said to the two of them according to the words discussed yesterday: "Before I set off, my wife found a fortune-teller in the village who was very accurate to ask for my safety. Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses can be relaxed temporarily, but the elite soldiers in the front must carefully distribute food according to the number of heads."

Tian Ji frowned, as if he thought this rhetoric was extremely absurd.

Sun Bin, however, was very interesting, and stretched out his hand to signal to continue.

"He calculated that the military adviser would definitely summon me and the internal account, and said that if that day came, let me tell you what I said."

Liu Miao raised her head slightly, her gaze was steady, and she continued, "Be careful of spies."

"Pang Juan has been recruiting a lot of staff since his defeat in the Battle of Guiling. Before the start of the battle, all of these people stayed behind closed doors. They hadn't shown up for ten days on the day we set off. Where did the military adviser think they would go? Woolen cloth?

"Moreover, this battle is extraordinary. The prince of the Wei State, Shen ①, has personally conquered. His military advisers have always played tricks and are good at manipulating people's hearts. The first step of the Wei State is to go straight to Daliang. It seems that we already know where we are going. It's a normal way."

Tian Ji interrupted: "How do you know this?"

Did Pang Juan's staff disappear? Wei Guo's army was rushing to Daliang. They still didn't know the news. How could a fortune teller come here casually?

Liu Miao didn't show any guilt at all, and said, "The gentleman didn't say much at that time, and his subordinates didn't dare to ask too much."

During the Warring States period, people were still in awe of heaven and gods. These ghosts and gods are the most suitable things to deceive people.

Tian Ji was already extremely impatient, seeing how annoying Liu Miao's expression was, he just thought he was a bastard who wanted to be promoted and wanted to go crazy.Sun Bin, however, seemed a little interested and kept smiling.

Liu Miao bowed and said, "I don't ask for anything, I just want to lead people to distribute food and grass in the past few days. If there is no accident, it is the best. If there is any accident, it will not be too late to trust the general."

In fact, nothing will be lost in this process, but Sun Bin looked at him and said, "It will lose a lot of time."

"I only travel thirty miles a day," Liu Miao replied eloquently, "You are not short of time."

Tian Ji opened his mouth to scold, but was stopped by Sun Bin, but he didn't say anything after stopping him, still looking at Liu Miao.

Liu Miao took a step back with great insight and said, "This time is worth paying for. I just want to be safe."

"Besides, listening to what I have to say now, can you still feel at ease to distribute food and grass as usual?"

"Come on," said Sun Bin, "send a few people with you."

His face was calm all the time, but his words and deeds, pauses and panting, made people more nervous than Tian Ji who spoke with joy and anger. Liu Miao finally breathed a sigh of relief and sweated out his palms.

Before leaving, he was suddenly stopped, and Sun Bin asked behind his back, "Where is your hometown? There is such a fortune teller in this world. When I go back, I will definitely recommend it to Duke Qi."

Liu Miao turned around again and said: "My subordinate is from Yeyi, and that gentleman is not from Qi. He visited here all the way and didn't live there for a long time. I think we can catch up when we go after the victory."

He speaks clearly, and he is not afraid of revealing his truth after returning home, because he will leave immediately after the war is over, and no matter how the rest of the matter develops, it has nothing to do with him, and it doesn't matter how outrageous the lies he tells now, Who can verify it during the march?It's not what he said.

When he was leaving the big tent, he passed by Ouyang Gen and gave him a slight wink.Ouyang Gen brushed past him.

From the beginning to the end, they never thought of making Sun Bin really believe it. They just wanted to make him alert, and felt that this war would be different from the ones he had won before. Winning traps are waiting for him.Even if it makes him suspicious, it is better than knowing nothing.

Soldiers can be ignorant, and to a certain extent, they must be ignorant even for a greater chance of winning.But generals can't, and military divisions can't.They must at least have a sense of crisis.

Now that this is happening, even if Sun Bin still does nothing, he has won an opportunity to count the number of people every day, which will greatly avoid the possibility of being mixed into the enemy's undercover agent.

After all the rest and luggage were packed, Tian Ying sat on the horse in front of him, waved the halberd in his hand, and shouted: "Let's go!"

"Today! Cross the Pu River!"

Tens of thousands of strong men shouted in unison: "Yes!"

Kang Tu followed the crowd and shouted loudly, pulling his neck. No matter how uncertain he was, his voice blended into such a masculine roar, and he felt as ambitious as his whole body.At this moment, he finally knew why he had to shout slogans. It really boosted morale and even gave him a sense of belonging to this strange group.
