"Drive, Bai Rong!"

The dawn light penetrated the choking loess. On horseback, Wang Ge looked back.

call!

A brown horse carrying a hurricane passed by her. The distance between the two horses was less than three feet. It was Sima Chong.

"Follow me, Sister Ge." Wang Tian also crossed over.

The two men have been competing against each other since they left Cuiyi County. The more difficult the trail, the more they chase each other and enjoy it endlessly.

The flying dust around her finally thinned out, and she saw Huan Zhen. Wang Ge knew that the other party had superb riding skills, and he was always there to take care of her. If he was like Sima Chong and Wang Tian, ​​and kept running away from her for several miles, what happened to her? The danger is too late to save.

But Wang Ge's combined years in his past and present lives were enough to be his elder, so she looked back from time to time, fearing that she had left Huan Zhen behind.

Today is the third day of midwinter and the sixth day since Wang Ge left home.

It was only after she arrived at the county office that she learned that the three craftsmen escorting her were Huan Zhen, Wang Tian and Sima Chong, all of whom had the status of Tingzuo.

The border county she wanted to go to was Xuantu County. According to Magistrate Huan’s description, she thought it should be Shenyang in her previous life. Taking the shortest route from Kuaiji County to Xuantu County would take more than half a year. Magistrate Huan made it very clear, In the nearby border county, craftsmen who had the same idea as Wang Ge gathered together, but they did not gain much benefit and wasted time.

Xuantu County is different. It is too remote and the climate is not good, especially in winter. It is very cold. The Fuyu Kingdom in the territory has wars with Tuhe Xianbei in the west, Yilou people in the northeast, and local indigenous tribes. There are also wars all year round. Goguryeo attacked Nanwoju, and the Yilou people killed and looted Northern Woju. The Yilou territory alone was thousands of miles wide, and the county's military force was limited, so it was always beyond its reach.

Although it takes a long time to go to such a far place, the county competition is easy to take, which is far better than taking the exam for six or seven years in an ordinary border county.

Wang Ge believed in Magistrate Huan and he was optimistic about Xuantu County, so she resolutely gave up the other two border counties he provided.

Before leaving Kuaiji County, the four of them went to the Duting Pavilion first as ordered by Magistrate Huan, and the chief of the Duting Pavilion arranged the route out of Yangzhou. Only then did Wang Ge know that a war had really broken out, and they should have gone all the way north to Danyang County. , but the capital pavilion chief asked the four of them to go west, bypassing Xiaoshan and walking to the south of Xuancheng County. After arriving at Luyang County, they followed the arrangements of the county-level capital pavilion chief there.

The circuitous route added hundreds of miles to the road. Wang Ge was mentally prepared, raised his whip, and shouted: "Bairong, drive!"

Under the sunset, with the dry forest frightened by birds, the four of them finally arrived at Wangshan Pavilion, their place to stay tonight, as planned.

The mountain refers to Xiaoshan, but this pavilion is actually far away from Xiaoshan.

After Tingyi checked the road, he took them to their accommodation. They were tired and tired, and no one had the intention to enjoy the beautiful setting sun. However, after dinner, Wang Tian and Sima Chong regained their energy and started fighting again in the courtyard.

Wang Ge lived alone, separated from Huan Zhen's yard by a low earthen wall. The house had no windows, so he opened the door to let in some moonlight. After a while, it felt colder inside the house than outside.

She dragged the straw mat to the courtyard, lay down on her back in the windless air, and looked at the stars. She remembered the time last year when she and her eldest mother were watching the rolling lanterns in the courtyard. On the night before leaving home, her eldest mother told her that her second uncle, Xu Yixiang, had a lady in her hometown. That family also liked the second uncle, but it was a pity that she did not have the chance to meet the second aunt. What was even more regrettable was that she did not see Hutou. She went around to Qinghe Village and gave five coins to a cowherd boy. The news she got was that the primary school was indeed Endless at the end of the month.

I wonder if she would be able to recognize Hutou at a glance if she saw him again three years later?

At this time, there was a very noisy noise outside the courtyard. Wang Ge immediately got up and there was a knock on the courtyard door.

"Who?" When she asked, Huan Zhen jumped up on the wall.

He told Wang Ge not to move, and walked to the wall near the east and west outer walls and stopped. There were thorns on the east and west outer walls, but from this position, all the people blocking the door could be clearly seen.

It's a wounded soldier!

There were two people being carried and others being supported, totaling twelve people.

Tingyi, who knocked on the door just now, raised his head and begged: "Tingzuo, there is really no room. Some wounded soldiers are coming tonight. Can you let me join you in the same hospital?"

"Yes. But this courtyard is small. Free up our courtyard and give us a moment to pack our bags." After saying that, Huan Zhen pointed to Wang Ge to her courtyard door, and then to himself. Then he jumped back and opened the courtyard.

Open the door and call the wounded soldiers to come in first.

Wang Ge hurriedly dragged the mat back into the house and waited in front of the courtyard gate.

"ah……"

"Slower, slower."

The heartbreaking screams from the partition wall startled Wang Ge. Fortunately, Huan Zhen knocked on the door: "Open, it's us."

After coming in, he bolted the courtyard door, and the four of them entered the house silently. They had few luggages and threw them in casually. With the door half open, Huan Zhen looked at the earthen wall again and said to Wang Ge: "They are wounded soldiers. They are wearing them."

Those are the military uniforms of Kuaiji County."

The four of them sat down in a small circle at the door.

Wang Tian said excitedly: "Brother Huan, do you want to find out where they are fighting, and then we can go straight to the enemy camp..."

"Tsk." Sima Chong was missing a front tooth, and his sarcastic voice had a unique whistle sound that was particularly loud.

As soon as Huan Zhen pressed his hand, the two of them stopped arguing. He said: "A Tian, ​​do you still remember Zu Huan who was killed in the valley?"

"Remember, the leader of the thief was beaten to death by me with a stick."

Sima Chong was used to the other party's ability to brag. "Huh, Zu Huan deserves to be called the leader of thieves?"

Huan Zhen pressed his hand again: "Brother Chong is right, Zu Huan is definitely not the leader of the thieves. The reason why the Pavilion Chief asked us to bypass Xiaoshan can be seen from these wounded soldiers."

Wang Tian and Sima Chong said in unison: "Xiaoshan is a battlefield?" Once they break through this line of defense, they will reach Shanyin!

Sima Chong wondered: "If a war really breaks out, who will be the leader of the rebels? Who can instruct Zu Huan, Shen, and Qian to act?"

Huan Zhen: "After entering Xuancheng County, the chief of the pavilion asked us to go through Ningguo County, Anwu, and Lincheng County, and then cross the river and enter Lujiang County. Therefore, Xuancheng County reaches Wanling, the first county in the north, and Jing County in the south.

, are not comprehensive places. Therefore, in addition to controlling Wu County and Wuxing County, the rebel leader also almost controls Xuancheng..."

Wang Ge listened in confusion. She was there when Pavilion Chief Du explained the route and did not move her away. Now that Huan Zhen explained it in more detail, she still couldn't understand.

"I understand!" Wang Tian clapped his knees: "The leader of the thieves is Zu Yue."

Sima Chong cursed: "The governor of a state is rebelling, it's abominable!"

"The rebels are right in front of you, why go to the border county to perform meritorious service? Sima Chong, do you dare to follow me to Xiaoshan at night and capture Zu Yue alive?"

The two of them held their breath and glared at each other. Huan Zhen asked Wang Tian: "First think about what you will do if someone catches you?"

"Humph." Wang Tian was bored and looked around Leng Chao's house, and found that there was an inner room. He got up and picked up the luggage he had just thrown away.

Sima Chong was afraid that the other party would step on his luggage, so he also went there.

The light over there was dark, and the two of them struggled to block the moonlight. During the fight, something flew away and landed where Wang Tian was sitting just now.

Oops! Wang Ge was stunned... She sewed the menstrual belt, five of them in total, to prevent sudden embarrassment and to have a buffer period for her to prepare protective measures. The three teenagers just saw her luggage there.

, also threw their respective luggage over.

Wang Ge coughed slightly, but Wang Tian was faster than her and picked up the embarrassing wide cloth belt. What was even more embarrassing was that he put it to his nose: "It smells of wormwood? Sister Ge, what is it for?"
