Chapter 363 4 Small Entering the Tiger's Den
Ten miles away, for the cavalry, it doesn't take too long.But because he had to take care of the caravan behind him, he also walked for more than an hour.
When Zhong Jinwei saw the small city that Ye Bushuo was talking about, that is, the big asphalt castle, officials and gentry at all levels, led by guard Zhao Zhiqi, went out to wait outside the city gate.
Many forts were built along the Great Wall in northern Shaanxi to garrison troops to defend against Mongolian invasion.However, since Qinglong, there has been no war for many years, so the scale of the garrison has shrunk and the number of households has increased. However, the officials in command of the Great Tartar Fort are still different from those in the mainland. They are not civil servants such as county magistrates, but guards.
Hu Hao and others led the horse and stood some distance away from them, waiting for Zhong Jinwei.The two sides are clearly separated, and they are not the same group at first glance.
After Zhong Jinwei approached the city gate, he reined in his horse and stopped in front of the welcoming crowd, and Zhao Zhiqi hurriedly took the lead in saluting.
Zhong Jinwei sat on the horse and looked at them. His first impression was that they were completely different from the peasant army he saw.
These people were all dressed in silk and satin, with ruddy complexions, and many of them were fat with big bellies.
Zhong Jinwei's impression immediately turned bad. The people nearby ate bark, but these people were raised so well. Could they be good officials and squires?
But he didn't have a seizure either, and he couldn't just arrest them as soon as they met without any evidence, and ransack their homes and lose their money.
Zhong Jinwei is an adult, so he still has some stability.He just asked coldly and condescendingly: "How far is it from here to the next town?"
Zhao Zhiqi was taken aback when he heard that, he didn't expect Hou Zhongxing to be so indifferent to them, let alone ask him this question.
However, he did not dare to be negligent, and quickly said: "Returning to the imperial envoy, there is a big castle in the southwest of this place, called Gaojiabao, about thirty miles away."
Zhong Jinwei frowned, thought for a while and said, "Arrange food and lodging for the army, and set off in the afternoon."
If ordinary generals led troops to pass by, Zhao Zhiqi might thank guests behind closed doors and would not cooperate.
But now the leader is Zhongxing Hou, who is also an imperial envoy, and he dare not give him 1 guts.
Zhao Zhiqi didn't dare to refuse, he raised his head and said hesitantly: "Returning to the imperial envoy, the fort is rudimentary, and there is no place for the army to station in the city. See if you can move the army to the sun-drying field in the south of the fort. In the end, people will send food and drink there. Dare not be negligent.”
Zhong Jinwei didn't speak immediately, looked at Zhao Zhiqi, saw a little panic on his face, and wondered if there was any place in the city for the army to station.
Thinking of this, Zhong Jinwei was ready to speak.But Zhao Zhiqi saw that Marquis Zhongxing didn't speak immediately, he thought he was angry, and hurriedly said: "The last general asked Huang Juren to clean up his other courtyard for the imperial envoy to rest, and please move the imperial envoy."
Although in the eyes of these people, Zhong Jinwei already looked up to him.You can do whatever you want, without having to be careful about your words.
But he just didn't want to get along with these people, because he said: "Forget it, Master Ben is staying in the army, and he has to go on his way in the afternoon. Where is the grain drying field? Lead the way."
Zhao Zhiqi hurriedly called a soldier and ran ahead to lead the way.
After he finished making arrangements, he turned around and was about to say something more, but Zhong Jinwei ignored him and led the army directly to the grain drying field.Leaving him and the group of squires looking at Zhong Jinwei's back, embarrassed to follow or not to follow.
Hu Hao and others would not stay here any longer, and followed Zhong Jinwei away.
Behind Zhao Zhiqi is Huang Juren. Originally, when he was defending and said that the imperial envoy should go to his house to rest, he wanted to show his face and pretend to be close. He didn't think Zhong Jinwei didn't catch a cold and didn't go to his house to rest. gone.
He was a little puzzled, why this Marquis of Zhongxing was different from other officials, he had a good place to rest, so he went to rest with those soldiers.
He thought for a while, and seeing that Zhao Zhiqi was still in a daze, he took a step forward and said, "Brother Zhao, is the envoy angry?"
Zhao Zhiqi looked at the white-rod cavalry who turned in front of them and drove towards the sun valley field in the south of the city, and complained in a low voice: "The imperial envoy came suddenly, how could I be fully prepared?"
"Brother Zhao, you see that the imperial envoy is a marquis, and he is also a guard of Jinyiwei and a guard of Dongchang. He must have great power in the capital. If he is dissatisfied with you, look...?"
Huang Juren had a good relationship with Zhao Zhiqi, so he thought about it for him.
Zhao Zhiqi nodded, and he could see it too, but Zhong Jinwei left just as he said, which caught him off guard.
When he heard Hu Hao's report that the nearby peasant army had bumped into the army led by the imperial envoy and was completely annihilated, he was always very happy, and he didn't need to waste too much money and food, but now this joyful mood disappeared, and he was single-minded. Thinking about how to please the imperial envoy.
Zhao Zhiqi thought for a while, and said to the squire behind him, "Go, go back and get ready."
Besides, Li Dingguo and the other four children may have been wandering with Zhang Xianzhong a lot, and their physique is stronger than that of ordinary children. After more than ten miles, they followed closely behind the caravan without any fatigue.
After arriving at the grain drying field in the south of the city, he wandered back and forth in front of the army camp, always thinking of finding an opportunity to rescue Zhang Xianzhong.
But the officers and soldiers had settled down, and they became anxious before they even knew where Zhang Xianzhong and others were being held.
Four children sat in a circle under a tree on the edge of the drying field.
Ai Nengqi, who was the youngest, really couldn't think of a way, so he asked Sun Kewang, "Brother, will the foster father be killed by the officers and soldiers?"
"Wu Ya Zui, those leaders have not been killed, how could they kill the adoptive father first." Sun Kewang angrily reprimanded upon hearing this.
"Then think of a way, how to rescue the adoptive father!" Ai Nengqi was already familiar with Sun Kewang's admonishment, he didn't care at all, and continued to ask Sun Kewang.
"I'm thinking, don't interrupt." Sun Kewang said something, and then began to think hard with his cheeks on his hands.
Seeing that Sun Kewang had no choice, Ai Nengqi turned his head to Li Dingguo and asked, "Second brother, do you have any ideas?"
If Li Dingguo wants a solution, he has already said it.Seeing that Ainengqi came to ask him again, he was about to shake his head in denial when he suddenly saw a lot of people coming out of the city.
He quickly stood up and looked over there.When the other children saw it, they also stood up and looked over there.
I saw a lot of cars rolled out in the city, including unicycles, two-wheelers and so on. What these cars have in common is that they are full of food.
The four children were all people who had served in the army, and they knew at a glance that these things were given to the officers and soldiers for meals.
Li Dingguo looked at the coachmen and the local soldiers on the other side walking towards the car camp in a hurry, and suddenly his brows that were locked were relaxed, and he said happily: "There is a way."
Sun Kewang looked at him incredulously, and asked, "What can I do?"
"It is certain that the foster father is locked up in the barracks. Now these people are sending food to the barracks, and the people on both sides must not know each other. We can get in and find it in the barracks by ourselves." Li Dingguo pointed to the barracks. Said the team.
After all, they are still young, because the white pole army is stationed as casually as their peasant army, or slightly better, and there are gaps to exploit.
"Then what if we are discovered?" Liu Wenxiu asked.
"What are you afraid of? Can those officers and soldiers still kill us?" Li Dingguo said indifferently.
"We're thieves!" Sun Kewang reminded, frowning.
"Do those officers and soldiers know our four brothers? At most, they thought it was the children from the convoy who got in to play." Li Dingguo looked at Sun Kewang and explained.
"Okay, let's go." Ai Nengqi first agreed, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and being young also has this advantage.
Although what Li Dingguo said made sense, Sun Kewang still shook his head and said, "It's not very appropriate, let me think about it again."
In fact, he had already agreed in his heart, but for the sake of his elder brother, he felt that he hadn't come up with an idea, but the second brother had an idea, and it was not good for him to listen to him.
Now that the eldest brother said so, the three children surrounded him and waited for him to find a way, without moving and starting to act.
But Sun Kewang still had no choice, he kept thinking, time was slowly running out, the tail of the convoy also left the gate, and if he didn't act, there would be no chance.
Li Dingguo was in a hurry, stomped his feet and said: "Brother, if you still have no idea, then I will go first, and you stay here to catch the wind."
Everyone has entered the barracks, and there are no officers and soldiers outside, so what kind of wind do we need?Li Dingguo actually said this to give Sun Kewang face, he thought that Sun Kewang was afraid of going in and being arrested.
Liu Wenxiu and Ai Nengqi also became anxious, now there is only the method Li Dingguo said, there is no room for choice, judging by the appearance of the eldest brother, they must not be able to think of it, so they urged Sun Kewang: "Big brother!"
Sun Ke saw that part of the convoy had already entered the barracks, and the tail of the team was also moving away from the gate of the fort.Knowing that if he didn't move, there would be no chance, so he didn't care about face at this moment, he stomped his foot and said, "Let's go."
So, the four children ran to the convoy.The people in the team didn't care when they saw that it was four children.The four of them did three drills and two drills, and they disappeared when they got into the convoy.
When Zhong Jinwei saw the small city that Ye Bushuo was talking about, that is, the big asphalt castle, officials and gentry at all levels, led by guard Zhao Zhiqi, went out to wait outside the city gate.
