Chapter 382: Moving forward

With Wei Li'an, a familiar guide, there is no problem passing through Zongwang Village. In order to pave the way for Wei Li'an and leave a deeper impression in the minds of Qiangwang and Xi Yu, Ye Tao still ordered to leave goods slightly less than Qiangwang required. It can be said that he left face and steps for both sides. Although there were a little twists and turns, it can be regarded as a happy situation for everyone. The place of Xianju Village is even more unfair. Xianju Village is still very willing to adopt the policy of passing caravans.

As long as the travel fee is paid, what do you like? They warmly welcome the caravans that take refuge, and naturally, they will occasionally exaggerate the dangerous situation in Yinan, allowing those merchants to sell the goods in their hands to them at a low price, and Xianju Village will benefit a lot from it. However, for those caravans who want to venture through the war zone, Xianju Village will advise them, but will never obstruct them. These days, there are still some more brave caravans who are willing to take risks at this time, in order to pursue higher profits. Including combat effectiveness and luck, in fact, a few caravans have succeeded.

However, after Ye Tao and his party arrived at Xianju Village, they still attracted everyone's attention. This caravan, which seemed unusual at first glance, sold the goods and even most of the carriages to Xianju Village. However, Ye Tao and his team also purchased a small building and a yard in Xianju Village, leaving behind five or six people, plus the few institutions introduced by Wei Li'an, although they were not under any organization in Dongping, they were very reliable to guard some inconvenient documents and materials, and there was also a considerable amount of cash. According to the style of Ye Tao and Tan Weixin, the cash bank will naturally be handed over to the local intelligence bureau in Yinan and the staff of Qihai Trading Company in Yinan to provide them with convenience. Other things will be transported back to Yunzhou after the war has subsided.

Then, Ye Tao temporarily booked a forging and woodworking workshop, and modified a total of five carriages. Although they were limited by technology and did not have any good materials, the modified carriages greatly improved their performance in all aspects. Ye Tao actually used simple materials and structures to create a four-wheel independent suspension carriage. The extended shock absorber wheelbase and solid chassis greatly increased the passing of the carriage in rugged terrain, and the carriage walls used iron bars to cast out the frame.

, the inner frame of the entire car body is embedded with handmade barbed wire and double-layer silk. There are two layers of thin wood boards inside and outside. Although this kind of carriage can only accommodate four people comfortably, or six people in a crowded manner, it is basically impossible to penetrate the straits or even close-range crossbows. Unless it encounters heavy equipment such as the divine arm bow, crossbow cannon, or encounters a strong archer and direct shooting at close range, it can basically ensure the safety of the occupants in the car.

The five carriages took a total of six days, and in these six days, the entire caravan completed the transformation from a seemingly harmless caravan to a murderous military. This change surprised everyone in Xianju Village at this moment. The soldiers of the special camp did not carry the military uniforms specially designed for them in Yunzhou, but the weapons and some small equipment were not left for a moment. A large number of cheesecloths and other things were purchased locally in Yinan. They prepared those simple and durable clothing devices in just a few days, and the weapons and small equipment could be hung in their most familiar positions. When the emergency moment, this familiarity and casualness might come in handy. The special camp, martial arts people and guards also based on their respective

The characteristics were mixed, with a total of 300 people coming. Six teams were organized into 50 teams, and those fractions were Liu Yong, Jin Ze, Guan Huan, Zhou Rui and others to protect the safety of Ye Tao, Tan Weixin and maid Sisi one-on-one. In fact, Sisi felt that she might be more burdensome, and she was hesitant to stay in Xianju Village and talk about it when the war was settled. However, in order to strengthen the core strength, Zhang Wei, who specially organized a core team to protect important people, vowed to guarantee that Sisi would protect Sisi. Seeing Zhang Wei was obviously a little moved by Sisi, and Sisi seemed to be a little moved, so everyone was happy to see it. In fact, Sisi should be with Tan Weixin and would hide in the carriage for more time, which should not be inconvenient.

After staying in Xianju Village for a while, they set off. Wei Li'an spent a lot of time collecting intelligence in the past few days and finally determined their way to Yanan Port. Each company has different relationships, and the transportation methods are also divided into water and land. The transportation cost, the transportation transfer time of the goods, etc. There are quite a few routes from Xianju Village to Yanan Port. However, this time, in order to ensure the speed, Wei Li'an suggested taking one route mainly by land and only two ferry crossings. Although it was a little longer, it was more suitable for Ye Tao and his party who had many horses.

When they left Xianju Village and set out towards Yanan in a mighty manner, they did not hide it. They have attracted too much attention in the past few days, and it is really impossible to leave secretly. Since this is the case, it is better to be open-minded.

"Sir, a caravan followed us. He was not from the Beiyi Chamber of Commerce. He looked like an independent caravan. What should I do?" After an hour of departure, a scout came to report on the observation situation and asked.

"If they can keep up, let them follow. Our marching speed is just beginning to be effective now." Ye Tao said lightly. Ye Tao did not rush in the carriage, but rode his horse with everyone. After all, he was the commander who dominated the side. Although his riding skills are not as good as those grassland tribes that grew up on horseback, it is quite good.

Their marching speed is indeed gradually accelerating. Due to the complex situation of the war zone, they cannot send scouts from afar, but send observers at several commanding heights near the marching route. Generally speaking, there are one in front, two wings and one in the rear, with a total of six observation points, each of which is four people in a group. The group behind the back is slightly longer and will return to the team immediately, and there will be a team to take over the observation task at another distance. The two wings and the front also rotate in this way. This marching method and observation method are very different from the special battalion's very tone and advocating method of lurking spying. Everyone gradually became familiar with it and became smoother. The handover of several observation posts gradually did not require a large group of people to fine-tune the marching speed to cooperate. The precise operation of the Yunzhou army and Ye Tao's army is unparalleled in the world.

After more than two hours, when their team increased their speed, the caravan behind could no longer keep up, but the caravan behind actually sent a group of people to take shortcuts and walk around them, asking to see the person in charge of their business. This time, he was in the wild anyway, so Ye Tao simply came forward in person to avoid negotiating with Liu Yong and the others. They are really fighting every second now.

"Get out of the way, don't block our passage, or kill them all." Ye Tao threw a word over with a hard time, and the other party quickly flicked on the side of the road. Then, a strong middle-aged man jumped out and asked, "Can you meet your manager? We want to join you to go to Yanan, and we... are willing to pay the expenses according to the fee of asking for the escort agency."

Ye Tao said impatiently: "Your money is not as important as our life. Letting you follow us. If you don't expel you, you will be very proud of your face. What else can you do? If you can keep up, follow us, but if you can't keep up... Then just be casual. Speaking of which, even if you keep up, it has nothing to do with us if you encounter any problems."

The middle-aged man was obviously used to being domineering and was impatient by Ye Tao's robbery, but he still suppressed his anger and said, "Is there anything you can discuss? We ship these things, all of which are of high value, but not much. It can't delay your speed. Not only money, but even other aspects, as long as you can propose it, it is not difficult to discuss. Our boss is quite powerful in the entire south of Xiling, and he should be able to do whatever you need."

"We can do it ourselves. Please come back." Ye Tao raised his hand.

"Don't toast or not eat and punish the wine. No matter who you are behind you, in the south of Xiling, we have to give our boss a little bit of shame. You...you..." said the middle-aged man angrily.

"It's a pity that this is not Xiling now..." Ye Tao shrugged, with an incomprehensible expression, and the horse left.

At this time, the observation post sent a situation back. "There are two armies fighting in front of us, and the total number should be around 700 or 800 people. What should I do?" Zhang Wei, who interpreted the signal, ran over and reported carelessly. Now the clothes on Zhang Wei and Ye Tao are basically the same. Ye Tao has already instilled in everyone that during the marching, especially when it may be exposed to the range of enemy crossbows, try not to emphasize the difference between superiors and subordinates, so as not to be identified and sniped. After conducting rich sniping training, special camps and guards with many archers, this one can be recognized by everyone. In addition to Ye Tao's always easy-going style, everyone is very careless, not only neglecting etiquette, but also many titles. Now that there are outsiders, it is not convenient to call titles such as "adult", "general", and "Ye Zhengluo".

Ye Tao just frowned and said, "Retract the scouts from both wings and the rear, concentrate the team, and pass directly from the battlefield. No matter who you encounter first attacks on us, you will fight back to the end. After passing through the battlefield as fast as possible, you will unfold the observation post."
