Chapter 157 Spy
Ji Yunzhang had already put on his armor. Jin Shaoyi came out of the tent and saw the soldiers lined up in rows, ready to go.

The guerrilla battalion, waiting for an opportunity, had already set up an ambush two hours ago.

Pei Lan came out with a small flag, stood between the two of them, and raised the small flag in his hand, "Who will go?"

They both reached out and grabbed the flag at the same time.

Jin Shaoyi sighed softly, "Ji Saner, don't argue with me today. Get your little body back first, and then we can talk."

Ji Yunzhang said nothing.

Pei Lan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, "Although it's just a small battle, it's related to morale. General Jin has cooperated with the soldiers many times, so let General Jin go."

This time Ji Yunzhang let go.

Yin Gang, who used to get up at Chen time every day, got up just before Mao time today.

Yin Gang looked at the command flag in Jin Shaoyi's hand and frowned slightly. Didn't Lao Ma lead the guerrilla camp out at Chou time?

Could it be that the military advisor had some private arrangements that he, the deputy commander, had not yet made aware of?

Thinking of this, Yin Gang's face suddenly turned bad.

He took a few steps forward and asked, "General Jin, what are you going to do?"

Jin Shaoyi turned around, looking surprised, "General Yin is up so early today."

He looked at the flag in his hand again and said, "I think what General Ma said yesterday makes sense. We still need to keep up with the number of people. I will go to support General Ma later."

Support Lao Ma? Yin Gang frowned. He felt something was wrong.

Before he could think, the second guerrilla battalion's guards came running up to him, "General, everything is ready!"

Jin Shaoyi put on the helmet, and his expression instantly became solemn.

"Infantry brothers, proceed as planned. Have you put on your armor?"

"All dressed!"

"set off!"

"Yes!"

Pei Lan turned her head slightly and saw Yin Gang looking at Jin Shaoyi riding away on his horse with burning eyes.

Ji Yunzhang noticed his gaze and followed his line of sight, which happened to meet Yin Gang's.

The two just nodded to each other.

After Yin Gang left, he took two steps closer to Pei Lan, "But what did you find?"

Pei Lan shook his head, "No."

As he said this, he turned his gaze to the soldier following Yin Gang.

He turned his head thoughtfully, "In the camp, are the followers assigned to the commander-in-chief and deputy commander-in-chief soldiers from the army, or do they bring their own followers?"

Ji Yunzhang, "It depends on where. My father used to be stationed in Yanhui, and the attendants around him can be brought from home."

"This is a battlefield now. To prevent mixing of personnel, no one is allowed to bring anything. The people in the barracks are all named in the military register."

He understood something and turned around, only to see the door curtain of Yin Gang's tent flutter twice and someone had already gone in.

He looked back at him again, "Do you think there's something wrong with Yin Gang? Or is there something wrong with his attendants?"

Pei Lan pursed his lips and thought for a while, "General Yin is fine, but that attendant is problematic."

Ji Yunzhang thought about it and realized that they arrived at the same time yesterday.

We haven't had time to understand this camp yet.

He only noticed Yin Gang's hostility and had not discovered anything else unusual.

How did she know?
Pei Lan, "Go ask General Yin about the location of the food and grass storage later, and the attendants should make some unusual movements."

He raised his head and looked at Ji Yunzhang. "That attendant is from the Western Jin Dynasty. Although he speaks Daqi language very well, when he entered the room last night, he made a secret gesture with his hand."

"The index finger and middle finger overlap, this is the gesture when the people of the Western Jin Dynasty worship the Bull God. When I was a child in Chidu, I saw the people of the Western Jin Dynasty kneeling on the ground to worship when they saw a slaughtered bull." "And in the big tent yesterday, there was an ox horn bow."

"Just now, when the attendant followed General Yin into his tent, he also made a silent gesture."

"You can check later to see if there are any beef products in General Yin's tent."

Ji Yunzhang nodded, changed his hand to hold the helmet, and walked towards Yin Gang's tent.

Pei Lan saw him leave and returned to the tent.

His tent was not big, and there was a screen separating the inside and the outside. This should have been Jin Shaoyi's order.

There was a simple camp bed and a desk inside.

On the desk is a chess manual that is half-finished.

There was a piece of paper stuck in the middle of the chess record. He walked forward, picked up the record, and held it horizontally in front of his eyes. A strand of his hair that was stuck with the paper last night was gone.

Pei Lan pulled out the note, which had six words written on it.

Something that is near appears far away.

This was something he wrote casually last night.

These six words are the first military strategy her father taught her. If you want to go somewhere nearby, you have to pretend to go far away.

Because of this strategy, she lost five games in a row at chess before she realized her father's intention.

After being led far away by the nose, she found that her city had been swallowed up.

Later this became her habit of playing chess.

When Rong Lingkuan was learning to play chess, she used the same method to beat him in more than a dozen games, and almost made Kuan depressed.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, the little soldier who intercepted Pei Lan at the city gate yesterday lifted the door curtain and came in, but was startled by the screen in the middle.

When did something like this appear in the military camp?

"Master Pei, General Ji has captured a spy and is calling you over."

In the meeting tent yesterday, Yin Gang's attendants were tied up.

Yin Gang's face turned pale. Since they arrived in Tongchang yesterday, Pei Lan stayed halfway through the meeting, Jin Shaoyiqing went out with the command flag and refused to tell the truth, and Ji Yunzhang came up and arrested his attendants.

The attendant was still relatively young, and his face was filled with horror. “I’m not a spy!”

Ji Yunzhang sat on the main seat in the tent. "It's a pity that this general sneaked into your Western Jin Dynasty five months ago and conducted an investigation for more than a month. He even sneaked into Fengqing where your Khan was hiding."

"Do you think I know whether you are a spy or not?"

The servant's eyes flashed, and in the next moment he saw Yin Gang's eyes almost showing anger when he looked at Ji Yunzhang.

He immediately understood what was going on. Yin Gang and Ji Yunzhang were not on good terms. As long as Yin Gang recognized him, he would not be a spy!

The attendant immediately knelt and took a few steps towards Yin Gang, "General! You have been in the Southwest Camp for almost two months, and I have been following you for two months."

"You know exactly where I am from."

Yin Gang was filled with anger, "Prince, Xiao Zhang has been with me for so long, and you call him a spy as soon as he comes."

"Do you think our Southwest Camp is made of paper and anyone can come here, or do you think I, Yin Gang, am blind and can't recognize people from the Western Jin Dynasty and the Daqi people?"

He almost squeezed the last sentence out through his teeth.

"Or, you are targeting me because you think there are too many deputy commanders in this camp."

After saying the last sentence, the fire in Yin Gang's eyes almost sprayed towards Ji Yunzhang.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the tent was tense.

"Generals, I found some good stuff, let's try it out."

A hoarse voice came in as the curtain was lifted, followed by the smell of meat.
