General, your son is in my hands

The spies sent back the news that Uriel ordered to summon an army of [-] troops from Uriel Chiha City to Liangcheng City, which immediately aroused Lu Qingshan's vigilance.

Although the coach of Uriel's army this time is Hasen, who has a reputation of reading millions of military books, Lu Qingshan doesn't pay attention to him at all. Lu Qingshan fully realized how difficult they were in the last few confrontations, and paid more attention to this battle than before.

It's going to be an uphill battle.

If they are victorious, they will capture Liangcheng, replenish food and grass on the spot, and go one step further, taking advantage of the trend to break into the middle of Uriel.

But if they are defeated, the food and grass are exhausted, the soldiers have no physical strength to fight back, and everyone will stay here even with their lives.

"Report-"

Lu Zongbing sat in the main seat with full armor, "Come in."

"Report to Commander-in-Chief, Shi Qianhu has returned to camp."

Zongbing Lu felt relieved, and finally had good news, "Let him in quickly."

"The humble Shi Peng has met Lu Zongbing."

Lu Qingshan stepped in front of Shi Qianhu in a big stride.

"These vain rituals will be avoided, and tell me the harvest of this trip."

"The humble job does not disgrace the mission, and a total of 23 grassland tribes have been recruited."

Lu Zongbing was overjoyed, "I'm not mistaken about you, Shi Qianhu is great!"

After being praised by the commander-in-chief, Shi Peng felt a little embarrassed, scratched his head with his hands and smirked, "This time I encountered a few stubborn tribes, and the humble officer ordered them to be killed without authorization. Please punish them."

Lu Qingshan laughed loudly, and patted the tendon on Shi Qianhu's arm with both hands, "When dealing with those who are not clear-headed, we should let them suffer a little bit, and those who make big things don't care about small things."

"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief."

"Go down and have a good rest. I will definitely report your merits and invite officials for you."

The big account of the general army.

Lu Qingshan sat on the top, pressed his hands down, and the room suddenly became quiet.

"I heard a secret report today that Uriel's [-] troops are marching from Chiha City to Liangcheng under the leadership of Marshal Hasen. I want to wait for work at leisure, destroy all of them, and seize their army. I will complete my meritorious service in one battle."

In short, the Uriel army led by Hasen has come to the door and must fight!Arrange defenses at each strategic point first, and stay behind when they come.

All the officers and soldiers applauded, and the commander-in-chief was wise.

Immediately afterwards, Zongbing Lu threw out a second plan.

"Previously, Vice General Liu offered a strategy to send [-] elite soldiers into the grassland to attack Liangcheng from behind, forming a pincer attack and taking Liangcheng in one fell swoop."

All the officers and men worked hard again, asking for credit and recommending themselves.

The scene seemed lively, but in fact, only Lieutenant General Liu Xian and Lieutenant General Su Nengsu really wanted to compare their strengths and weaknesses.Others are beating and answering a few words, and others can only watch eagerly when it comes to qualifications and knowledge.

Liu Xian and Su Neng finally came to an argument, and General Lu ordered Liu Xian to lead [-] elite soldiers deep into the enemy's rear.Although Su Neng is not reconciled, he is a man with a bright personality. It doesn't matter whether he is a forward or not, as long as there is a battle, he can fight.

The battle for the vanguard came to an end, General Lu ordered the battle plan in an orderly manner, and all the generals took orders one by one.There are still 20 days of food and grass left. The victory of this battle is very important. No matter what kind of thoughts they have in private, they must be twisted together now.

Beijing.

Qin Yun fulfilled his wish and met Zhou Daguan who had been supplying Luji grain store before.

Both sides are seated.

"Dare to ask this boss why he asked Zhou to come here?"

Qin Yun smiled and took a sip of tea, "I heard that most of the grain stores in the capital are supplied by Mr. Zhou."

"The boss calls someone Zhou, and Zhou Yong will do it, but a high-ranking official doesn't dare to be a high-ranking official." The grandfather sitting next to him bent his waist and said: "Someone Zhou is indeed supplying some grain stores, but it's just a small one. Don't dare to make a fuss."

"Boss Zhou, don't be modest. I invited you here this time to order a batch of goods from you. I don't know if it's convenient or not?"

Hearing Qin Yun's tone, Zhou Yong thought it was a big deal, so he hurriedly said, "I wonder how much this boss needs? Mr. Zhou's words first, the price of food has gone up due to the tight war."

Qin Yun's heart skipped a beat, but his face was watertight, "How much can Boss Zhou produce? What's the price of a stone of grain?"

"The price of one stone of grain has risen to [-] cash. How much grain does the boss need?"

Twelve hundred wen per stone?Previously, I planned to buy one tael of silver and one stone. Although the war factors had already been taken into consideration, the increase in grain was too exaggerated. You must know that the rice he sold in Qifu Village was only more than 600 cash per stone.

"I'll take as much as you can raise within three days. What's the price... Boss Zhou won't give me a discount if I buy so much?"

"Three days is too tight. I can raise up to [-] shi at most. At this price, you can get a discount of [-] Wen per shi."

Qin Yun smiled and shook his head, "Twenty thousand stones, one tael of silver for each stone."

"Hehe, boss, you are joking. I can't raise [-] shi of grain in three days, even a tael of silver per shi. If this boss really wants to do this business, he can add a little more."

Qin Yun picked up the tea bowl, uncovered the tea cover, and stroked the bowl lightly, "Don't be impatient, Boss Zhou. I haven't finished yet. What I mean is that [-]% of the [-] shi of grain is rice, and the remaining [-]% ​​can be replaced by barley, sorghum, corn, etc. As for the [-] shi, I think Boss Zhou will not have friends who are like him in business, I believe Boss Zhou has the ability to do [-] shi."

Zhou Yong kept silent and calculated in his heart. With his ability, [-] shi should be collected in nearby towns within three days. This price...

"Someone Zhou has the guts to ask, so many food bosses, do you want to..."

Qin Yun put down his upturned legs and raised the corners of his mouth, "I'm not going to hide it from you. It's obviously a lie that I said I'd keep so much food for myself. I'm going to send it to Liaoyuan. Boss Zhou must have heard about the food being intercepted. .”

"Is this statement true?"

"The sentences are true."

"I don't know why you want to send food to the army, boss?"

Qin Yun smiled, "The second young master of Dingyuan General's Mansion is my husband, is Boss Zhou satisfied with this answer?"

Zhou Yong got up and gave a salute, "So it's the second young master of the Lu family, the villain is rude."

Qin Yun waved his hand indifferently, "Then this food, Boss Zhou..."

"The villain will definitely go all out and guarantee to raise [-] shi of grain within three days."

"Qin Yun thanked you here."

……

Sure enough, on the third day after the negotiation was concluded that day, Zhou Yong sent someone to General Dingyuan's mansion to send a message to Qin Yun.And according to the agreement, he brought [-] shi of grain, paying with one hand and delivering with the other.

Wait for the grain to be transported to the prepared granary, and the servants will order the goods and report.

"Second Shaojun, there are a total of [-] bags of grain, [-] bags of rice, and [-] bags of wheat and corn."

Qin Yun turned his head and was a little surprised, "Are you sure there is nothing wrong?"

"Back to Er Shaojun, the villain has clicked twice, and there will be absolutely no mistakes."

"Well, it's hard work, you go down first."

Qin Yun raised the corner of his mouth. This person is quite interesting, unexpectedly patriotic.

Rongciyuan.

"Ancestor, you asked me to come..." Qin Yun thumped the old matriarch's shoulder.

The old lady half-lyed on the soft couch, squinting her eyes to enjoy, "I heard that you bought a large amount of food with your private house, is there such a thing?"

Qin Yun thumped the hand on his shoulder, "Go back to your ancestors, it's true."

"Want to send it to Zhuang Zhuang?"

"Ah."

"You don't have much money left, how are you going to deal with the transportation expenses?"

Qin Yun replied in a low voice: "I'm going to go to the Escort Bureau."

The old lady didn't even raise her eyes. "This is not a small business. There are only two companies that can take over. The asking price is definitely not low. Are you planning to sell the jewelry?"

"I seldom use this jewelry anyway, so it doesn't matter."

Hearing that the old matriarch opened his eyes and asked Qin Yun to help him up, he took out a small box from behind and stuffed it into Qin Yun's hand.

"Take these bank notes and use them for the time being. If you don't have enough money, come and find your ancestors."

Qin Yun held the small box carefully, "This...I can't accept this."

The old matriarch said with a grimace, "You can hold it if Zu told you to. Could it be that what I said was inappropriate?"

Qin Yun carefully said no with a smile on his face, and then blushed again to accept it.

The old lady just laughed.

……

===================================

A team of more than 50 people dressed as traveling merchants marched north.

In the middle of the line, a tall and thick man rode to the front of the line with his legs clamped under the horse's belly.

"Young Master Qin, Cangshan Mountain is five miles ahead. Should we change our course or pass directly through Cangshan Mountain?"

At this time, it had been seven or eight days since the imperial court's grain and grass had been cut off, and they had also set off from the capital for three days. Qin Yun turned over the map and compared it carefully.

"Escort Sun, how long will it take if we make a detour?"

The man who caught up was also Escort Sun who made the calculations in his mind, "It will take another day to make a detour."

one day!Let alone a day, even half a day late, what if something happens?No, no, no detour.What's more, when they set off, they disguised themselves as traveling merchants to avoid attracting attention. The last time Cangshan robbed the imperial court's grain and grass, they must not have dared to stay here all the time.

Thinking of this, Qin Yun told Escort Sun, Escort Sun thought about it and found it reasonable, so he reined in the horse's head and shouted to the rear: "Speed ​​up, pass Cangshan before tonight."

As the sun gradually tilted, a group of people stood nervously at the foot of Cangshan Mountain.

"Come on, keep going."

Everyone leaned on the grain truck carefully, and took out their waist knives and held them in their hands, for fear that a group of masked men would suddenly appear in the surrounding woods.

Qin Yun's little heart also touched his throat. The light in the woods was not good, but now it was dark, and the sound of the leaves rustling in the wind seemed to be intentional. This broken environment is really scary.

Looking at the people behind him, they didn't show any signs of timidity, but they all looked dignified.

Everyone drove the carriage carefully, not daring to make unnecessary noises, and accelerated through the woods.
