In the blink of an eye, at the beginning of the month, it was time for the imperial court to send supplies to the counter-insurgency army.
As Chen Qiuming's nephew, even if Chen Taishi didn't deliberately explain to the people below, he would not dare to neglect, the grain and grass sent to Yangshaokou were always the first to arrive.
On the contrary, Luo Fengxin's side was several hundred miles closer to the capital than Yangshaokou, but the food and grass had to be delayed until nearly the middle of the month.
At this moment, Qiao Wan, Cen Qiong and the soldiers from his battalion were lying in ambush in front of a stone bridge named Zuo Floating Bridge.
It is a valley with high mountains on both sides. It is a good ambush point, and it is a little far away from the frontal battlefield. The Fuzhou army can't break through easily, but Qiao Wan and the others thought It's easy to come here.
Last night, the person Qiao Wan sent to investigate came back and reported that the team sent by the imperial court to deliver food had already passed through Yongcheng, and it was expected to arrive at the left floating bridge at noon today.
"...So your method is to rob?" Chen Xiuhe stood beside Qiao Wan and asked in surprise.
When he came out of the camp with Qiao Wan, there was only a group of less than 20 pro-armies following him. Looking at the direction, he thought he was going to Yangshaokou to talk to his second brother, but when he was taken to the place, he found that the place had already been planted. There are many ambushes.
"You kid, can you talk anymore? It's 'borrowing', how can you say 'robbing'?" Qiao Wan looked at the entrance of the valley with her binoculars. So far, there was no trace of the grain transportation team.
These days Qiao Wan called "children" or "children", and Chen Xiuhe was used to it.
"I wonder if this would be a little bad." He hesitated to speak, and now this development is farther and farther away from what he thought before, that everyone should do their own thing and work together to fight against the enemy.
It is true that his uncle was unkind first, but it is not right for His Highness to rob people of food and grass.It is said that enemies should be resolved rather than knotted. If this continues, the enmity between the two parties will only deepen...
But as far as the matter of food and grass is concerned, the Chen family has indeed done bad things. As a member of the Chen family, he seems to have no position to persuade the princess and the princess to take a step back...
From the corner of her eyes, Qiao Wan saw that Chen Xiuhe was tangled up there, so she casually broke off a branch of a short shrub nearby, and handed it to Chen Xiuhe generously, saying: "Here, take it and pull the leaves, it will help relieve stress, if not, you can also put the The bark was peeled off."
Chen Xiuhe: "...Thank you, no need."
Tsk, I don't know good people.
Qiao Wan retracted the branch, handed the binoculars to his subordinates, and picked it up by himself.I think back when I was under house arrest in Qianyang City Governor’s Mansion, I had to count the number of roots and plan to grab a piece of grass. Now the mountains and plains are full of flowers and plants and dense branches and leaves. When I’m bored, I can play whatever I want. It’s not too much. hapiness!
Chen Xiuhe watched the princess of Nankang destroy the branch with his hands, and for the first time in his life, he wanted to fight the injustice for the branch.
He wanted the princess to let go of the branches, but he was afraid that the princess would laugh at him when he said this. After hesitating for a while, he saw the princess inserted the branch with most of its leaves into the soil, and flattened the soil in a serious manner. Feelings are still counting on that branch to take root and sprout?
While he was speechless, Chen Xiuhe suddenly heard Qiao Wan say again: "It is impossible for the Chen family and His Highness to relax."
Chen Xiuhe was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously followed her words and asked, "Why?"
Qiao Wan patted the dirt on her hands, and asked the person next to her to take her water bag and pour water to wash her hands. While washing, she said to Chen Xiuhe: "The Chen family wants an obedient puppet emperor, but Your Majesty is not ..."
Luo Jinhe is not, and it will not be the case after Luo Fengxin succeeds to the throne in the future.
Luo Fengxin is not yet the heir to the throne, Qiao Wan can't tell Chen Xiuhe about her.
Fortunately, Chen Xiuhe was just a little naive, not a fool. Qiao Wan had pointed out that there were indeed different camps in the court. Although he couldn't think of the succession of the throne for the time being, since this time, His Majesty named Princess Leping as the anti-rebellion army The coach can also see Princess Leping's position.
Qiao Wan saw that Chen Xiuhe already understood what she meant, so she didn't intend to continue talking with him on this topic.In her opinion, Chen Xiuhe was a good kid, and she didn't want to use a knife to scratch people's hearts repeatedly.
As for this batch of food, of course they have to be robbed.Luo Jinhe won't live for long, and there may be battles to be fought next.She and Luo Fengxin have suffered a disadvantage since they have not taken over Minzhou for a long time, and their food reserves are far inferior to that of King Pingxiang. This batch of food is not only very important to them, but at least it is an important strategic material that should be obtained.
"Princess, they are here."
Qiao Wan dried her hands and took the binoculars from her subordinates. In the distance, a long convoy appeared in her field of vision. In the middle was the grain transported by the carriage, and on both sides were officers and soldiers responsible for escorting the grain.
At the front was a man wearing silver armor and carrying a double mace on horseback. Qiao Wan recognized that man's name as Wang Shen, the adopted son of Grand Master Chen; beside him was a civil servant, in his forties, named Li Shouyi , is Chen Taishi's disciple.
"It turned out to be him!"
The convoy got closer, and Cen Qiong could see who was coming even without binoculars.
"Do you recognize them?" Qiao Wan's eyesight was not as good as those who practiced martial arts all the year round, and she still held up her binoculars to observe.The location where they are located is backlit, so there is no need to worry about the reflection of the lens being discovered by others.
"Wang Kun, I was our leader when I was on duty in Beijing, and I was very arrogant to our subordinates because of my relationship with the grand master, and often called us "trash" and "trash".
I used to give him a lot of filial piety money, but he kicked me without even asking... cough cough! "
Cen Qiong realized that he almost said something wrong, so he hurriedly glanced at Qiao Wan's face, for fear of being missed by this narrow-minded master, but fortunately, Qiao Wan's complexion was normal, and even one corner of his mouth curled up.
"That's why the enemy's road is narrow."
"That's not it!" Cen Qiong saw that he could be saved, and quickly added: "In fact, it's good to be transferred to His Highness, really! At least His Highness will not treat us as human beings. Besides, I used to just stand guard. , the sword is just holding it in your hand, and the two years with His Highness have made greater progress than the previous ten years..."
Qiao Wan put away the binoculars and patted Cen Qiong on the shoulder, she could understand Cen Qiong's previous complaints.
Back then when Luo Fengxin left Beijing, everyone was talking about her offending the Holy Wrath.Following a master who is not liked by the emperor, the future can be imagined, and the place to go is a barren land like Minzhou, so everyone would think it would be better to stay in the capital.
But at this time and at that time, who would have thought that Princess Leping could quickly subdue the bandits and hungry people in Minzhou with thunderous means, and build Minzhou with great vigor?
"Okay, needless to say, I don't eat people." Qiao Wan took a step back from the tree and carefully hid her figure, then continued in a low voice to Cen Qiong: "Now the opportunity is in front of us. , Let him see how powerful you are."
She is just the one who comes up with ideas, and Cen Qiong needs to direct the actual battle.
The food transportation team got closer and closer, Cen Qiong saw the timing, and conveyed the order to the herald beside him. The herald blew his whistle, and the people in ambush on both sides of the mountain pushed the prepared boulders down the cliff at the same time, stopping the food transportation. The team's way.
"Warning!" Wang Kun drew out his maces and shouted loudly, and the rest of the officers and soldiers of the food transportation team also drew out their weapons.
"General Wang, Mr. Li, don't come here without any harm!" Qiao Wan turned out from behind the tree, and the guards on both sides carefully guarded her with their shields up.
"Princess Nankang? What do you mean?" Li Shouyi was shocked and angry when he saw the people on the mountain clearly.
"Master Li, don't panic. Our camp has run out of food and grass, and everyone is waiting for the rice to cook. Can this batch of food be given to us first?"
Qiao Wan's tone of voice was quite polite, and it was probably this kind of politeness that gave Wang Kun the illusion that she lacked confidence.I saw Wang Kun holding the rein in one hand and pointing at Qiao Wan with a mace in the other: "Dream, grab it if you have the ability!"
Qiao Wan chuckled lightly, and winked at Cen Qiong. Cen Qiong nodded, and the herald took off the horn from his waist and blew it.
Different from the whistle just now, the crisp whistle sounded like an ordinary bandit robbery, but the deep and deep sound of the horn really gave people a sense of killing on the battlefield.
With the sound of the horn, countless soldiers immediately stood up on the mountainsides on both sides. They moved in unison and aimed at the food transport team in the valley with guns in their hands.
"You, you are going to rebel!" Li Shouyi had never seen such a battle before, and he was so frightened that he could hardly speak.
"What is Mr. Li talking about? Isn't this in a hurry to use food?"
Qiao Wan has been a civil servant for a few years, and she has a perfect level of official accent. She still looks good at business and said to Li Shouyi: "Don't worry, we are not the kind of people who borrow and don't pay back. Let's count the days to get fixed." The grain transportation team from Sichuan should also be on the way, you can still meet them when you go back now, let them send the batch of grain directly to Yangshaokou, won’t the grain be returned?”
"How can that be done?!" Li Shouyi blurted out, "This batch of food and grass is for General Chen, and that batch is for Her Royal Highness. You have to follow the rules in everything. If you want to come here anyway, won't it be messed up?"
"It's a matter of urgency, and there are many people on His Highness's side, and the court allocated more food and grass to His Highness. Let's exchange more for less. General Chen has obviously made a profit. I don't think he will do such a good deal. Refuse. Or—”
Qiao Wan paused for a long time; "Is there any difference between these two batches of grain?"
Li Shouyi was speechless for a moment.
These two batches of grain are of course different.He knew it, Wang Kun knew it, and Princess Nankang knew it too.
However, everyone can only know this matter well, but they cannot bring it to the table.Admitting that the two batches of grain and grass are different is tantamount to admitting that Grand Master Chen, who is in charge of supervising the armaments, has failed in his duty. Li Shouyi absolutely dare not say this.
"The princess is joking. The food and grass supplied to General Chen and His Highness the Princess are all transferred from the Yonglu warehouse. How can there be any difference..."
"Since it's all the same, why not?"
Facing Qiao Wan's pressing questions, Li Shouyi couldn't answer.Seeing this, Wang Kun looked at Li Shouyi with displeasure and said, "What are you talking about with them?"
After finishing speaking, he raised his head and shouted at Qiao Wan: "I was ordered to go to Yangshaokou with grain escort. If you really dare to grab the grain, it will be treason. Leave as soon as you can, and I will return to Beijing Bingming foster father You can also let it go lightly..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp arrow flew down from the mountain and hit the ground in front of the horse's hoof.The horse was frightened, and its front hooves were raised high. If it weren't for Wang Kun's real skills, he would have been thrown off the horse suddenly.
Even so, he was still a little embarrassed.
When he saw the archer, Wang Kun cursed angrily, "Cen Qiong, how dare you!"
Cen Qiong didn't answer, and aimed at Wang Kun with his gun, firing three arrows in succession.
Wang Kun is considered to be highly skilled in martial arts among the Forbidden Army in the capital, and he can also be ranked among many other local armies.However, whether it is the forbidden army or most of the local troops in the Yu Dynasty, they only have daily drills, unlike the Minzhou area, which has really fought for more than a year.
In order not to die on the battlefield, the Minzhou Army participated in the training more seriously than anyone else, coupled with the tempering of actual combat, as Cen Qiong himself said, his growth in the past two years is more than the sum of the past, and he is no longer what he used to be. .
These three arrows were specially obtained by him from Her Highness the Princess, and he practiced them in private for a long time.The first arrow shot at his neck, the second arrow judged his hiding position and shot at his left eye, but the second arrow shot first, and ordinary people basically couldn't dodge it.
But Cen Qiong knew Wang Kun's strength, so he immediately shot the third arrow.
He knew Wang Kun, but Wang Kun didn't know him now, so he couldn't avoid the third arrow no matter what.
Sure enough, Wang Kun didn't regard Cen Qiong as a threat at all at first, and was about to use his mace to wave away the first arrow when he was surprised by the second arrow.
It was too late to block it, Wang Kun instinctively leaned back to avoid it.The arrow grazed his helmet, caught the tassel on his helmet and shot into the tree trunk behind, bringing his helmet down with him.
"Yes, General Cen." Qiao Wan praised softly with a smile.
Chen Xiuhe opened his mouth wide. He only knew that Princess Leping was brave and unparalleled, but he didn't know that such a gentle young general under her command also had such abilities.
Cen Qiong let go, wiped the sweat off his forehead while the eyes of the food transport team were on Wang Kun and the helmet, and said modestly, "It's a fluke, a fluke."
To be honest, he was not fully sure about the three arrows just now.
Qiao Wan's order to him was not to really hurt anyone.If he misjudged Wang Kun's strength, he would be in serious trouble if he was hit by any of the first two arrows; if Wang Kun dodged all three arrows, he would increase the enemy's morale and destroy his prestige.
It wasn't until he saw the result that he felt that his inner shirt under the armor was soaked, and seeing Wang Kun's frightened expression, he belatedly felt a bit of pride and pleasure in his heart.
Let you always call us "trash" and "trash" in the past, today I will teach you to take a good look at who is the trash!
"I don't know if General Wang doesn't come here often. The mountain I'm on is called Luoxia Mountain. There used to be a bandit village on this mountain. There was a war recently, and people don't know where they went. But I heard that there is such a large batch of food. After crossing the border, maybe they came back again, don't you think so?" Qiao Wan said slowly.
Wang Kun's helmet was taken away by an arrow he despised before, which made him feel more humiliated than being shot by an arrow.
At this moment, he completely lost his mind and didn't even think about thinking about Qiao Wan's words. He shouted and directed his soldiers to go up the mountain to kill the enemy.
Qiao Wan had already ordered people to set a trap on the mountain, and the soldiers who went up the mountain either fell into the pit or stepped on the trap.
Cen Qiong's previous three arrows had left them with lingering fears, but now seeing his companions losing one after another, they all hesitated and dared not go forward, and only rescued their companions who had fallen into the trap.
"Master Li, are you really unwilling to lend us this batch of grain and grass?" Qiao Wan spoke again, and Cen Qiong, who was beside him, pointed an arrow at Li Shouyi again.
"I was lucky enough to take General Wang's helmet just now. I don't know if I have such good luck this time. If the shot goes wrong, please don't take offense, Mr. Li." Cen Qiong said and moved the arrow down a little, aiming at the position From Li Shouyi's official hat to Li Shouyi's eyebrows.
Li Shouyi's face turned pale with fright.
The three arrows just now were so dangerous, who knows if it will work again, if you shoot them wrong, you will be killed!
He hastily stretched out his hand to pull Wang Kun, and said in a trembling voice: "General Wang, forget it, let's leave the food and grass."
"What are you going to do, they are plotting against you!" Wang Kun broke away from Li Shouyi and said angrily.
"Oh, my General Wang, didn't you listen to what she said just now!" Li Shouyi said anxiously, "She was so anxious that she wanted to kill us and pass it on to the Bandits. One, it’s not worth throwing it here!”
After listening to Li Shouyi's words, Wang Kun finally calmed down a little. He looked sullenly at his chaotic and busy subordinates and the neat and orderly soldiers on the mountain, then raised his head and looked at Cen Qiong and Qiao Wan angrily for a while, and finally Finally he opened his mouth and said loudly: "Retreat!"
The soldiers who escorted the food and grass were afraid when they attacked, but they moved very quickly when they heard that they were retreating, and they retreated completely in a short while.
"Let's go! Move all the food and grass back!" Qiao Wan waited for Wang Kun and his party to go far away, and then began to make people move, "By the way, you send some people to follow Wang Kun and the others, I'm afraid he will kill the food transporter on the way." The people who planted it on us again. Just follow to Yongcheng, and it’s none of our business to go any further.”
Cen Qiong called a few of his subordinates and asked them to lead someone to investigate.
"And this, find someone to take to Yangshaokou, tell General Chen that we borrowed his grain, and ask the grain transport team to give them our batch of grain."
Qiao Wan took out a letter from her bosom, looking at the envelope with complicated emotions.In order to write this letter, Luo Fengxin even bullied her. To some extent, this is the letter she got by "selling herself"!
"Is this okay? I'm worried that my second brother won't admit it."
On the way back, Chen Xiuhe was still very entangled. He had been very upright since he was a child, and Qiao Wan's slanted approach was really not in line with what he had learned.
"We won't put the food delivery team in Guchuan this time. If we don't contact them, your second brother can't blame us for stealing food. Since it has nothing to do with us, it can only be the person who sent the food. question.
And he can't publicize this matter, if he doesn't expose this, we will still be at a disadvantage by exchanging more for less, so what reason does he have to make trouble with us? "
Qiao Wan rode on a horse and watched Cen Qiong's soldiers deliver cartloads of food to the battalions of the Minzhou Army.
"But this method only works this time. This is not the first time that the problem of two different batches of grain and grass has appeared. We didn't respond in the first few months. Your second brother didn't expect that we would suddenly come up with the idea of grain and grass. This time it was bullying The food transportation team is not as large as ours, next time your second brother sends someone to pick up the food in advance, we will have nothing to do with him. It’s just—”
Chen Xiuhe was still waiting for Qiao Wan to continue, but after listening for a long time, he fell silent. He turned to look at her and asked curiously, "Just what?"
It's just that the war will end this month, there will be no next time.
When it came to military secrets, Qiao Wan would not tell Chen Xiuhe, just when she saw Luo Fengxin waiting for her in front of the camp gate, she rode forward, leaving the bewildered Chen Xiuhe behind.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Qiao Wan: It's too difficult for me. To raise food for Ah Feng, even if she wants to write a letter, she has to sell herself.
Xiaobai: "Selling yourself" because of the letter or because you owed you no points in your heart?
Qiao Wan: Just a little bit~
Googoo feels good for a while, and keeps googoo... I feel very sorry for everyone! ! !
After I came back and updated QAQ, I will work hard to resume the daily update, and I will definitely not stop updating for so long, and try to finish writing it before the year.I don’t know how many cuties are willing to love me, I, I, I still love you very much (nervous
As Chen Qiuming's nephew, even if Chen Taishi didn't deliberately explain to the people below, he would not dare to neglect, the grain and grass sent to Yangshaokou were always the first to arrive.
On the contrary, Luo Fengxin's side was several hundred miles closer to the capital than Yangshaokou, but the food and grass had to be delayed until nearly the middle of the month.

It is a valley with high mountains on both sides. It is a good ambush point, and it is a little far away from the frontal battlefield. The Fuzhou army can't break through easily, but Qiao Wan and the others thought It's easy to come here.
Last night, the person Qiao Wan sent to investigate came back and reported that the team sent by the imperial court to deliver food had already passed through Yongcheng, and it was expected to arrive at the left floating bridge at noon today.
"...So your method is to rob?" Chen Xiuhe stood beside Qiao Wan and asked in surprise.
When he came out of the camp with Qiao Wan, there was only a group of less than 20 pro-armies following him. Looking at the direction, he thought he was going to Yangshaokou to talk to his second brother, but when he was taken to the place, he found that the place had already been planted. There are many ambushes.
"You kid, can you talk anymore? It's 'borrowing', how can you say 'robbing'?" Qiao Wan looked at the entrance of the valley with her binoculars. So far, there was no trace of the grain transportation team.
These days Qiao Wan called "children" or "children", and Chen Xiuhe was used to it.
"I wonder if this would be a little bad." He hesitated to speak, and now this development is farther and farther away from what he thought before, that everyone should do their own thing and work together to fight against the enemy.
It is true that his uncle was unkind first, but it is not right for His Highness to rob people of food and grass.It is said that enemies should be resolved rather than knotted. If this continues, the enmity between the two parties will only deepen...
But as far as the matter of food and grass is concerned, the Chen family has indeed done bad things. As a member of the Chen family, he seems to have no position to persuade the princess and the princess to take a step back...

Chen Xiuhe: "...Thank you, no need."
Tsk, I don't know good people.
Qiao Wan retracted the branch, handed the binoculars to his subordinates, and picked it up by himself.I think back when I was under house arrest in Qianyang City Governor’s Mansion, I had to count the number of roots and plan to grab a piece of grass.

Luo Jinhe is not, and it will not be the case after Luo Fengxin succeeds to the throne in the future.
Luo Fengxin is not yet the heir to the throne, Qiao Wan can't tell Chen Xiuhe about her.
Fortunately, Chen Xiuhe was just a little naive, not a fool. Qiao Wan had pointed out that there were indeed different camps in the court.

As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp arrow flew down from the mountain and hit the ground in front of the horse's hoof.The horse was frightened, and its front hooves were raised high. If it weren't for Wang Kun's real skills, he would have been thrown off the horse suddenly.
Even so, he was still a little embarrassed.
When he saw the archer, Wang Kun cursed angrily, "Cen Qiong, how dare you!"
Cen Qiong didn't answer, and aimed at Wang Kun with his gun, firing three arrows in succession.
Wang Kun is considered to be highly skilled in martial arts among the Forbidden Army in the capital, and he can also be ranked among many other local armies.However, whether it is the forbidden army or most of the local troops in the Yu Dynasty, they only have daily drills, unlike the Minzhou area, which has really fought for more than a year.
In order not to die on the battlefield, the Minzhou Army participated in the training more seriously than anyone else, coupled with the tempering of actual combat, as Cen Qiong himself said, his growth in the past two years is more than the sum of the past, and he is no longer what he used to be. .
These three arrows were specially obtained by him from Her Highness the Princess, and he practiced them in private for a long time.The first arrow shot at his neck, the second arrow judged his hiding position and shot at his left eye, but the second arrow shot first, and ordinary people basically couldn't dodge it.
But Cen Qiong knew Wang Kun's strength, so he immediately shot the third arrow.
He knew Wang Kun, but Wang Kun didn't know him now, so he couldn't avoid the third arrow no matter what.
Sure enough, Wang Kun didn't regard Cen Qiong as a threat at all at first, and was about to use his mace to wave away the first arrow when he was surprised by the second arrow.
It was too late to block it, Wang Kun instinctively leaned back to avoid it.The arrow grazed his helmet, caught the tassel on his helmet and shot into the tree trunk behind, bringing his helmet down with him.
"Yes, General Cen." Qiao Wan praised softly with a smile.
Chen Xiuhe opened his mouth wide. He only knew that Princess Leping was brave and unparalleled, but he didn't know that such a gentle young general under her command also had such abilities.
Cen Qiong let go, wiped the sweat off his forehead while the eyes of the food transport team were on Wang Kun and the helmet, and said modestly, "It's a fluke, a fluke."
To be honest, he was not fully sure about the three arrows just now.
Qiao Wan's order to him was not to really hurt anyone.If he misjudged Wang Kun's strength, he would be in serious trouble if he was hit by any of the first two arrows; if Wang Kun dodged all three arrows, he would increase the enemy's morale and destroy his prestige.
It wasn't until he saw the result that he felt that his inner shirt under the armor was soaked, and seeing Wang Kun's frightened expression, he belatedly felt a bit of pride and pleasure in his heart.
Let you always call us "trash" and "trash" in the past, today I will teach you to take a good look at who is the trash!
"I don't know if General Wang doesn't come here often. The mountain I'm on is called Luoxia Mountain. There used to be a bandit village on this mountain. There was a war recently, and people don't know where they went. But I heard that there is such a large batch of food. After crossing the border, maybe they came back again, don't you think so?" Qiao Wan said slowly.
Wang Kun's helmet was taken away by an arrow he despised before, which made him feel more humiliated than being shot by an arrow.
At this moment, he completely lost his mind and didn't even think about thinking about Qiao Wan's words. He shouted and directed his soldiers to go up the mountain to kill the enemy.
Qiao Wan had already ordered people to set a trap on the mountain, and the soldiers who went up the mountain either fell into the pit or stepped on the trap.
Cen Qiong's previous three arrows had left them with lingering fears, but now seeing his companions losing one after another, they all hesitated and dared not go forward, and only rescued their companions who had fallen into the trap.
"Master Li, are you really unwilling to lend us this batch of grain and grass?" Qiao Wan spoke again, and Cen Qiong, who was beside him, pointed an arrow at Li Shouyi again.
"I was lucky enough to take General Wang's helmet just now. I don't know if I have such good luck this time. If the shot goes wrong, please don't take offense, Mr. Li." Cen Qiong said and moved the arrow down a little, aiming at the position From Li Shouyi's official hat to Li Shouyi's eyebrows.
Li Shouyi's face turned pale with fright.
The three arrows just now were so dangerous, who knows if it will work again, if you shoot them wrong, you will be killed!
He hastily stretched out his hand to pull Wang Kun, and said in a trembling voice: "General Wang, forget it, let's leave the food and grass."
"What are you going to do, they are plotting against you!" Wang Kun broke away from Li Shouyi and said angrily.
"Oh, my General Wang, didn't you listen to what she said just now!" Li Shouyi said anxiously, "She was so anxious that she wanted to kill us and pass it on to the Bandits. One, it’s not worth throwing it here!”
After listening to Li Shouyi's words, Wang Kun finally calmed down a little. He looked sullenly at his chaotic and busy subordinates and the neat and orderly soldiers on the mountain, then raised his head and looked at Cen Qiong and Qiao Wan angrily for a while, and finally Finally he opened his mouth and said loudly: "Retreat!"
The soldiers who escorted the food and grass were afraid when they attacked, but they moved very quickly when they heard that they were retreating, and they retreated completely in a short while.
"Let's go! Move all the food and grass back!" Qiao Wan waited for Wang Kun and his party to go far away, and then began to make people move, "By the way, you send some people to follow Wang Kun and the others, I'm afraid he will kill the food transporter on the way." The people who planted it on us again. Just follow to Yongcheng, and it’s none of our business to go any further.”
Cen Qiong called a few of his subordinates and asked them to lead someone to investigate.
"And this, find someone to take to Yangshaokou, tell General Chen that we borrowed his grain, and ask the grain transport team to give them our batch of grain."
Qiao Wan took out a letter from her bosom, looking at the envelope with complicated emotions.In order to write this letter, Luo Fengxin even bullied her. To some extent, this is the letter she got by "selling herself"!
"Is this okay? I'm worried that my second brother won't admit it."
On the way back, Chen Xiuhe was still very entangled. He had been very upright since he was a child, and Qiao Wan's slanted approach was really not in line with what he had learned.
"We won't put the food delivery team in Guchuan this time. If we don't contact them, your second brother can't blame us for stealing food. Since it has nothing to do with us, it can only be the person who sent the food. question.
And he can't publicize this matter, if he doesn't expose this, we will still be at a disadvantage by exchanging more for less, so what reason does he have to make trouble with us? "
Qiao Wan rode on a horse and watched Cen Qiong's soldiers deliver cartloads of food to the battalions of the Minzhou Army.
"But this method only works this time. This is not the first time that the problem of two different batches of grain and grass has appeared. We didn't respond in the first few months. Your second brother didn't expect that we would suddenly come up with the idea of grain and grass. This time it was bullying The food transportation team is not as large as ours, next time your second brother sends someone to pick up the food in advance, we will have nothing to do with him. It’s just—”
Chen Xiuhe was still waiting for Qiao Wan to continue, but after listening for a long time, he fell silent. He turned to look at her and asked curiously, "Just what?"
It's just that the war will end this month, there will be no next time.
When it came to military secrets, Qiao Wan would not tell Chen Xiuhe, just when she saw Luo Fengxin waiting for her in front of the camp gate, she rode forward, leaving the bewildered Chen Xiuhe behind.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Qiao Wan: It's too difficult for me. To raise food for Ah Feng, even if she wants to write a letter, she has to sell herself.
Xiaobai: "Selling yourself" because of the letter or because you owed you no points in your heart?
Qiao Wan: Just a little bit~
Googoo feels good for a while, and keeps googoo... I feel very sorry for everyone! ! !
After I came back and updated QAQ, I will work hard to resume the daily update, and I will definitely not stop updating for so long, and try to finish writing it before the year.I don’t know how many cuties are willing to love me, I, I, I still love you very much (nervous
