My parents are omnipotent

Chapter 314 One Step Ahead

Song Wei is a native of the northern region. He is tall, dark-skinned, and well-proportioned, and it is easy to win the favor of others.

Ye Anlan cupped his hands and saluted him, "The barbarians are rampant at the border, but Mr. Song is in a hurry to go back to Juyongguan for support?"

Song Wei looked embarrassed, said not to rush, he felt against his will, said to hurry, and he was afraid that Ye Anlan would think he was implying that they would speed up.

Seeing this honest man's expression, Ye Anlan understood everything. She smiled and motioned Song Wei to take a seat, "To tell the truth, Mr. Song, Ah Jing and I are in a hurry. If it weren't for the heavy baggage that limited our speed, In fact, we also want to hurry up and send all the military supplies to the Dingbei Army as soon as possible."

Song Wei's eyes were slightly red. This was the first time that those in high positions were so sincerely understanding and helping them.

To be honest, before the Xie family and the Ye family extended a helping hand to the Dingbei Army, Song Wei did not have any good impressions of those so-called royal family members, dignitaries, and rebel leaders living in the hinterland of the Central Plains, without exception.

It was Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Ye who made him realize that those who have not seen how bitter and cold the frontier is, and how cruel the invasion of foreign tribes are, are not all wolf-hearted and ungrateful for profit.

There was a smile on his face that couldn't hide his serious thoughts, "I know that this is already the fastest speed for you, thank you."

Ye Anlan couldn't bear to embarrass such an unyielding and death-defying frontier hero, so she simply took the initiative in this conversation.

She asked Song Wei, "Master Song, what do you think is the most lacking supplies at the border? Is it food, salt, medicinal materials, cotton clothes, or knives, bows and arrows, armor, and horses?"

Song Wei was taken aback, he didn't understand why Ye Anlan asked such a question, but because the other party sent military supplies to himself and his comrades all the way, although Song Wei was puzzled, he still answered Ye Anlan's question honestly. question.

"If you ask what is missing, then of course everything is missing." His voice was a little dry, and the smile on his face became more bitter, "But what is the most missing. I think it should be bows, armor, and medicinal materials."

Ye Anlan nodded, "Then let's send a batch of bows and arrows, armor, and medicinal materials to the border first."

Song Wei's eyes widened, "You"

"I plan to act separately from Ah Jing." Ye Anlan smiled and nodded slightly at Song Wei, affirming the idea that suddenly popped up in the other party's mind, "I need to trouble Mr. Song to send me some guides. I need to be familiar with the terrain and have good skills. , and you can pass with your face in the counties and towns along the way.”

Song Wei's hands began to tremble uncontrollably, he stood up abruptly, "I'm going to pick someone!"

In the end, Song Wei picked out one of his young generals, and came out with more than a hundred people under this young general's command.

"This is Bai Ruiwen. He is the nephew of Lord Hou. He grew up in the northern region and meets the conditions you just raised, Miss Ye."

Ye Anlan slightly cupped his hands at the young general who was only in his early twenties, "Little General Bai."

Bai Ruiwen hurriedly cupped his hands in return, "Miss Ye."

Ye Anlan motioned him to sit down, "General Song should have told you about our plan, right?"

Bai Ruiwen nodded slightly, "Yes. Thank you Miss Ye and Mr. Li for taking so much trouble in setting up the Northern Army. If there is anything that needs to be done later, I will be assigned by the two of you."

Ye Anlan glanced at Li Jing and said: "I plan to take a batch of supplies to Youzhou first. If little general Bai doesn't mind, then my personal guards and I want to trouble little general Bai for a while."

Bai Ruiwen had heard from Song Wei a long time ago why they called him here, and when he heard what Ye Anlan said, he immediately nodded and agreed, "This is my job, I don't dare to ask Miss Ye for trouble."

The corners of Ye Anlan's lips raised slightly, "Then I won't be polite to you. Lord Song and General Bai, please make a list for me as soon as possible, and list the types and approximate quantities of the most needed supplies at the border. Note Well, we only have [-] light cavalry, [-] horses, and [-] chariots, and in order not to slow down the speed of travel, the weight of the chariots and horses must be reduced to half of their maximum load."

This is only a drop in the bucket for the entire northern border, but if it is only to support the defenders along the Juyongguan, these are enough to relieve the urgent need.

According to the weight limit of carriages and horses given by her, Song Wei asked Wen Liuniang for a pen and paper, and then scribbled and wrote.

While helping him sharpen the ink, Bai Ruiwen gave advice in a low voice.

They are the people who know the needs of the Dingbei Army best. After a while, the two combined the actual situation and gave a list of supplies that was not very long.

Ye Anlan asked people to divide the corresponding number of bows, arrows and armor from the military supplies he brought according to the list they gave, and Li Jing asked someone to send a batch of military supplies sent by Xie Shi for use. Herbs to stop bleeding and heal wounds.

Bai Ruiwen was busy with them all the way. Seeing the soldiers moving the things that exceeded the load limit, he couldn't help but ask Ye Anlan, "What do you and Mr. Li plan to do with the things that have been moved?"

Ye Anlan raised his hand and pointed to the other carriages behind the team, "We people have been eating horses these days, and we have already freed up a lot of carriages. Besides, we have also seized nearly [-] war horses. Take away two thousand horses, and the remaining nearly three thousand horses can also help carry some things."

If it is not enough, then buy some carriages or mule carts from the merchants along the way, it is not a difficult problem to solve.

When Bai Ruiwen heard this, he immediately felt relieved, and he glanced enviously at the stack of bank notes that Ye Anlan had casually handed to Wen Liuniang.

Once upon a time, their Bai family was such a wealthy family, and he didn't spend less on bank notes, but now, alas... (╥﹏╥)
Early the next morning, the advance team headed by Ye Anlan rushed straight to Juyongguan with a small amount of military supplies.

With Bai Ruiwen helping to clean their faces the whole time, they hardly encountered any obstacles in the northern border.

The reason why they say "almost" is that as they advanced, they encountered two groups of Hu people who were planning to burn, kill and loot in the northern border.

It was also those Hu people who were unlucky. They tried their best to find out the patrol route and time of the Dingbei Army, and then carefully avoided the patrolling Dingbei Army soldiers, thinking that now they could finally treat the northern people living in the village. He started to kill, but unexpectedly, Ye Anlan and others who suddenly appeared bumped into him.

Looking at their attire, weapons and body shape, Ye Anlan and Bai Ruiwen's scouts knew that these guys must be barbarians.

In addition, they raised their butcher's knives against the people in the northern border. It's no wonder that the soldiers of the Ye family army and the Dingbei army let them go.
