Wala Lao Camp.
Yang Jun has been here for three days.
To be honest, he never thought that one day he would appear like this in Camp Oara.
In front of him was a high fire, a dancing Mongolian beauty, fragrant kumiss and a freshly roasted whole leg of lamb on the table.
This is not like being in a military camp, but rather like being in the camp of a Mongolian noble.
"Come on, come on, General Yang, don't be polite. The grand master ordered me to entertain the general well. We won't go home until we get drunk today."
Opposite him was Bodu, who was dressed in Mongolian attire, with gold, jade and precious stones hanging all over his body. He held up the precious gold cup in his hand and said with a smile.
This is how Yang Jun has been treated in the past few days.
Except for the conflict between him and the publisher on the first day here, everything else was peaceful.
Bodu personally led him into the camp, where he not only met a number of nobles from Oara, but also Yexian.
The Yang family and Ye Xian are old rivals and have fought on the battlefield more than once.
Or maybe it's not accurate to say that, because the Yang family has been guarding the border for many years, protecting the border and the people. In addition to Ye Xian, the Yang family has basically interacted with the leaders of the other tribes.
Of course, this interaction is not a pleasant one...
In fact, some of these nobles had a blood feud with Yang Hong.
Therefore, before coming to Wala this time, Yang Jun had many assumptions about the situation he might encounter.
In the most extreme case, he was even prepared to be killed as soon as he entered the enemy camp.
But, he is still coming!
Yang Jie is his only younger brother. That day at Longmen Guard, his eldest brother made it very clear to him that the only way to save Yang Jie this time was by the Yang family themselves.
It was impossible for the imperial court to really start a war. The 20,000 soldiers of the Beijing camp led by my father were on guard against the Tatar tribes. They would never leave the Xuan Mansion, let alone rush to the rescue.
Yang Hong and Yang Xin both held official positions in the imperial court. Once they sent troops, even with a small force, they would be impeached by the central government.
At this time, the only one who can move is Yang Jun!
Although he was exiled to Longmen Guard, as long as he could rescue Yang Jie, it would be a great achievement. The merits and demerits would be balanced, and at least he would be safe.
Therefore, even though he knew that this trip was extremely dangerous, he still came.
However, he had imagined the worst possible situation, but he never imagined that Wala would treat him like a guest.
Recalling the various banquets over the past three days, Yang Jun still felt a bit unreal.
He could roughly guess that Yang Jie should have used some means to stabilize him first, but even so, the attitude of these people towards him still made Yang Jun feel very strange.
If it was just to go first, that would be fine, but in fact, almost all the Wala nobles he met these days, even the king of Saikan who wanted to surround him with cavalry that day, were all smiles when they saw each other again.
, as if the previous conflict did not exist at all.
This made Yang Jun feel very strange, but he was not good at strategy, so although he knew there was something strange in it, he couldn't figure out what the problem was.
Of course, these are secondary.
What worries Yang Jun the most is that in the past three days, whether in person or in person, he has asked about Yang Jie's whereabouts countless times, openly or secretly, and wanted to meet Yang Jie.
However, I never got any response.
Even Yang Jun had some doubts as to whether Yang Jie had been killed and others were afraid of being blamed by Ming Dynasty, so they were so enthusiastic towards him.
After this thought came to his mind, he became more and more restless, and his daily banquets were in vain.
Bodu on the opposite side raised the golden cup again, Yang Jun dealt with it hastily, and then went back to the camp directly on the grounds that he was too drunk.
In this huge Oara camp, this was the only one where he could relax a little.
After all, Yang Jun has been on the battlefield for many years, so he can't judge others. However, as someone who has been in the military since childhood, he shouldn't be too familiar with the layout of the barracks.
From the moment he entered the Wala camp, he realized that no matter how enthusiastic these Wala nobles were toward him on the surface, secretly, the entire camp had already been on guard.
Even the fifty elite cavalrymen he brought had their weapons and horses taken away, and the scope of their activities was strictly restricted.
Although he himself was not explicitly restricted from moving, every time he wanted to get a little further away, Bodu would appear inexplicably and block his way.
This clearly shows that they are spying on him!
However, what Yang Jun couldn't understand was why they did this?
After returning to the camp, someone had already prepared sobering soup. The first thing Yang Jun did was to pour half of the pot into his stomach.
He was indeed a drinker, but he also didn't forget that he was in an enemy camp.
Being drunk in the enemy camp is definitely courting death!
After drinking half a pot of sobering soup and washing my face with cold water, the vague dizziness in my head finally disappeared.
Only then did he open his eyes and look at the inconspicuous sergeant beside him.
"How's the check going?"
This person was naturally brought here by Yang Xin to ask Yang Jun to listen to his actions. It was said that his name was Liu San. His name was quite ordinary, and his appearance was no different from that of an ordinary sergeant.
At least, Yang Jun didn't see anything outstanding about him. The only thing that could be praised was probably that the calluses on his tiger's mouth were very thick, and one could tell at a glance that he was someone who had been wielding a knife all year round.
If nothing else, he should be a battle-hardened veteran.
"General, our horses are kept separately in the stables five hundred steps to the southwest, but the weapons are stored separately in the camp seven hundred steps to the southeast."
"These days, my brothers have secretly investigated. There are four squads of Wala soldiers patrolling around. Basically, they patrol once every other incense stick. Moreover, there are only one person guarding the horses and weapons. In such a short time, if we want to get them back at the same time,
With horses and weapons, it’s almost impossible.”
"In addition, when we chatted with these Oala soldiers, we found that almost none of them knew where the young master was. In fact, they had never heard of the young master. It was as if the young master did not appear here at all.
It’s the same in the camp.”
Since he knew that this trip was dangerous, the people Yang Xin brought to Yang Jun this time were naturally carefully selected. Most of these fifty riders were generals who had followed Yang Xin for many years.
Not only are they proficient in riding and archery, and have excellent martial arts skills, but more importantly, they are loyal to the Yang family. In addition, many of them are from Ye Busu, and are also very proficient in snooping for information and spying on intelligence.
For the past three days, Yang Jun has been going to banquets every day to show off his humiliation. Naturally, he has not been idle in private. The soldiers under him are also exploring the surrounding environment through various methods. Of course, the most important thing is
Try to find a way to find Yang Jie's whereabouts.
"So, they want to trap us here?"
Yang Jun frowned, his face a little ugly.
Liu San said nothing, as usual.
However, his appearance made Yang Jun even more angry and said.
"Brother asked me to obey you in everything, but what have you done now?"
"Three days have passed. We are in the enemy camp, surrounded by wolves, but we know nothing and can't do anything. We don't even know whether Xiaojie is still alive."
"Are you saying that you just have to wait day by day?"
Faced with Yang Jun's sudden temper, Liu San remained silent.
This is not the first time that a scene like this has happened, but every time it ends in vain.
But this time, when Yang Jun looked at Liu San who refused to say anything, he suddenly felt an unknown fire in his heart. He stood up suddenly, stepped in front of Liu San, glared and growled.
"say!"
Yang Jun is not a good-tempered person to begin with.
Among the younger generations of the Yang family, he has the most violent personality. Otherwise, he would not have whipped the imperial general to death after being drunk.
This time he went deep into the enemy camp. He knew that he was trying to save people, so he had repeatedly suppressed his temper.
However, the situation is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change. This feeling of being calm on the surface, but actually clearly foreseeing the approaching danger, but being unable to do anything, makes Yang Jun very crazy. He feels
I'm almost going crazy.
Looking at Yang Jun who was on the verge of going berserk across from him, Liu San's face remained calm, his lips moved slightly, and he uttered one word.
"wait!"
At this time, Yang Jun's face became even more ugly. He grabbed the soft whip on the side, unfolded it, and was about to hit the ignorant bastard in front of him.
However, what he didn't expect was that Liu San stood motionless like a clay and wood sculpture.
Yang Jun paced back and forth angrily, but he finally put the whip back in his hand.
Although he is reckless, he is not completely ignorant of propriety.
Now that he is in the enemy camp, not in the Ming Dynasty, he must not be impulsive. More importantly, Yang Jun knows very well that he is not the real key to coming here this time.
The real key is the Liu San in front of me!
If we say, Yang Jun did not have this concept at the beginning.
So, when he was outside the Wala camp, he took out the secret letter to Bodu, which actually proved a lot of things.
To this day, Yang Jun doesn't know what was written in that secret letter. He once asked, but this Liu San, just like before, refused to say anything.
Thinking back to when he was at Longmen Guard, his eldest brother solemnly told him that when he arrived on the grassland, he had to listen to what this person said and act. Yang Jun could actually guess that this person's identity must not be simple, and there must be something hidden about him.
Lots of secrets.
To put it bluntly, if something happens to him this time, nothing can happen to this person!
However, this guy looks like he really deserves a beating!
Yang Jun turned back and forth several times like a wild bull, panting heavily, turned back, glared at Liu San again, tried to sound calmer, and said.
"I know you must have some secrets. It doesn't matter if you don't want to tell me, but you always want me to know what you are going to do next. If you keep waiting like this, when will you wait?"
When he said this, even though Yang Jun tried his best to suppress it, he could not hide his impatience.
When Liu San saw this, he also knew that Yang Jun's condition was not stable at the moment, so he did not remain silent and thought for a while.
"wait until……"
"General, be careful!"
Just after saying two words, Liu San's expression suddenly changed, and he rushed towards Yang Jun. Yang Jun was unprepared for him, and they both fell to the ground at the same time and rolled to the side.
At the same time, under the silent night sky, there was a sound of piercing the air, and a flying arrow pierced the tent, and it was stuck on the wooden pillar supporting the tent, its tail feathers were still trembling.
The movement in the camp naturally attracted the guards outside.
"General, what happened?"
"It's okay, you can go out!"
After Yang Jun reacted, he waved his hand to repel the guards who rushed in.
Fortunately, although the weapons were taken away, their manpower was not separated, so the surroundings of the camp were still their own.
These people were all confidants of the Yang family, so naturally they obeyed Yang Jun's orders and immediately withdrew.
Yang Jun stretched out his hand and pulled Liu San up from the ground. The two of them came to the front of the wooden pillar, and their eyes fell on the tightly wrapped cloth strip in the middle of the arrow.
However, they were not in a hurry to take it down. Liu San first looked at the depth of the arrow hitting the wooden pillar, then turned around and looked at the hole left in the tent, turned back and said.
"Coming from the southeast, if nothing unexpected happens, the archer should be only about three hundred steps away from here. This distance is within the range of sight. Our people did not react, which means that the archer was not in an open place, nor in an open space.
That is to say, there is a high probability that it was shot from a certain tent."
"Judging from the location, there are four camps that can shoot this arrow. Which one it is cannot be determined for the time being. However, the purpose should not be to assassinate, and..."
Liu San turned around and looked around and said.
"This is the time to change defenses. According to the previous rules, the people guarding the southeast at this moment should be in the gap period of changing defenses. Therefore, the soldiers guarding the surrounding areas were not alerted."
"However, this time is very short. It can be seen that the archers are very familiar with the defense of the Wala Camp."
"However, it is not ruled out that someone is deliberately raising suspicions."
Yang Jun nodded, did not speak, but reached out to pull out the arrow, and then untied the cloth strip wrapped around it.
Sure enough, there was writing on the strip of cloth.
This arrow is someone secretly delivering a message!
Taking a deep breath, Yang Jun unfolded the cloth. There were only a few words written on it, but Yang Jun's expression changed instantly.
It says...
We are twenty miles southeast of the camp. At the beginning of the ugly hour tonight, you have a moment!
Two simple sentences, but the information revealed in them is extremely important.
Naturally, the person refers to Yang Jie. As for the following time, if nothing unexpected happens, it refers to the time when the patrol soldiers can be mobilized.
In a moment, if the patrolling soldiers can really be mobilized, then the soldiers should be divided into two groups, which should be enough for them to retrieve their horses and weapons and escape from the camp.
So, the question now is, can this news be believed?
Or to put it another way...
Could this sudden help be a trap?
