Bingyin hid behind the curtain to catch the carriage, still shivering from the cold wind:
"Some, some miss us..." sniffing, "our infantry vehicle."
The five people's faces turned blue and their lips turned white from the cold. They finally entered the city before being frozen to death. They quickly found an inn to warm up first. The inn was quite nice and brought them ginger soup, which the five of them drank warmly.
With a full stomach, I finally felt alive.
Hyun rubbed her cold nose and said:
"We have to buy some ginger. There is a stove in the carriage. We can make some ginger soup to drink. Otherwise, I'm afraid we won't be able to reach Yunyang Valley."
Four people unanimously agreed.
I bought supplies here and bought raincoats for the horses, and then continued on. This time, everyone was dressed like a ball. They were no longer afraid of the draft in the carriage. Not only that, but there was also ginger soup to drink. It was raining outside.
They can survive several days of snow.
In such freezing weather, the five of them finally stepped on the crunching snow and arrived at the city closest to Yunyang Valley. It was almost the end of the year. Although it was not as lively as other cities, there were still some
In the strong New Year atmosphere, people come and go in the streets, shuttling in various shops. Of course, if you are living a good life, you will buy cloth, meat, melon seeds, peanuts, sugar melon pastries. If your life is not bad, you will also squeeze in some money.
I go out to buy cloth and meat. If my life is not very good, I will also squeeze in to buy some suet or cheap water, so that my stomach, which has been widowed for a year, is also stained with oil. In short, in this small and remote city,
Here, you can still feel the approach of "New Year".
Yichou looked here and there. There were some local specialties that he wanted to buy home for his father, mother, wife and children to try. However, he had a mission this time. No one knew what would happen, let alone
Maybe he had brought these things with him. He sighed with regret, but immediately said angrily:
"When Uncle Yuwen Xiao is rescued, I will go to his house to eat dumplings!"
It made several people laugh and tease him for a while.
After finding a place to live, the five of them went out to inquire about the news. Judging from the information they found, they might not be able to end it before the end of the year.
Back at the inn, several people discussed what to do.
Jiazi said:
"Can we save it now?"
Bingyin shook his head:
"Now that the two armies are facing each other, it is the time when the military camp is most heavily guarded. It will be difficult for just the few of us to sneak in."
The other four people nodded in agreement.
laihouhou said:
"There is another point that we cannot ignore. Will Uncle Yuwen Xiao come with us?"
Several people were stunned, looking at him and waiting for the next step.
Lai Hou rubbed his hands on the brazier and continued:
"In the final analysis, Yuwen Xiaobo is still loyal to Dazhou from the bottom of his heart. The current battle is precisely to protect Dazhou. There is no way he will leave this mess and follow us."
The four people agreed very much. They only thought about how to save themselves, but they forgot to consider whether Yuwen Xiaobo would go with them. If Yuwen Xiaobo did not cooperate, it would be very troublesome along the way.
Hyun gnawed on the roasted sweet potato:
"Then, let's just wait for them to finish fighting and then take advantage of them to rob them."
Although it sounds a bit like bandits, this is what we have to do.
In the days that followed, they went shopping in and around the city, buying some small things that were easy to carry. The horse became more and more naughty as they fed it, and ate everything except grass.
After the New Year, the weather gradually became warmer. When the dragon raised his head, the good news of victory in the battle finally came from the front. The people who had been troubled by Ji Huhe for so many years cheered.
Within a few days, the army returned to the small town, and the people lined the streets to welcome them. Their joy was beyond words.
The five people also mingled among the people, looking for Yuwen Xiaobo. However, after looking around, they did not see him. Instead, they saw a square thing covered with cloth in the army.
Jiazi lowered his voice and said:
"That's not a cage, is it?"
The five people looked at each other and left quietly.
Jiazi was right, it was indeed a cage, and it was Yuwen Xiaobo who was locked inside.
Just after the battle, before the soldiers had time to rejoice, Yu Wensheng immediately announced the arrest of the traitor Yu Wen Xiaobo. Of course some soldiers were not happy. Yu Wen Xiaobo could be a rebel, what a joke, but Yu Wensheng took out
I have read Yu Wen Yun’s letter over and over again. Although this letter is not an imperial edict, it was written by Yu Wen Yun himself. If he makes trouble again, he will be contemptuous of the Holy One. If not, he will be labeled as an accomplice or rebel. That family will
, even the three tribes may be finished, and the soldiers have to surrender.
Judging from the content of Yuwen Yunxin, his family is already safe. This is enough for Yuwen Xiaobo. It doesn't matter whether he is dead or alive. Therefore, he does not want any soldiers to be implicated in it, so he will go ahead obediently.
Out of the cage.
In order to prevent someone from making trouble on the way, Yu Wensheng covered the cage with cloth. However, for the five of them, let alone covering the cage, they just hid Yu Wen Xiaobo in the baggage. As long as the person is still alive, they will
They have to dig it out, but it's better now. Such a big target saves them the effort to find it.
Several people returned to the inn, discussed how to save Yuwen Xiaobo, and then waited peacefully for the army to set off again.
The army did not stay here for too long. After winning the battle, of course they were eager to go back to receive the reward. After all, they had not been at home for years, and they were eager to return home. What's more, they were escorting Yuwen Xiaobo, and they also wanted to
Go back early, something happened on the way to the province, I sorted things out here, and then started back to Beijing.
The five men of Hyun have been following the army. There is no need to fight, so the marching speed is naturally slower. They are not like pedestrians, who have to rush from one foothold to the next within a day. The army just walks like this, no matter how long it takes.
When it gets dark, we camp there and continue walking when it gets light. Moreover, there are many mountainous areas in northern Shanxi, so it is easy to find mountain cols sheltered from the wind.
Yichou drove the carriage behind, far away from the four people. He passed by a place where supplies could be replenished, and immediately bought things. In addition to providing support, it was also regarded as logistics. The four people followed the army in hiding, looking for opportunities to strike.
Although the weather is getting warmer and warmer after the dragon rises, it is still quite cold in the mountains here in northern Shanxi. Especially at night, the wind gets into their clothes and pricks them like needles. In order to hide their whereabouts, they also
Not daring to light a fire, the four of us could only huddle together to keep each other warm.
Lai Hou looked at the army not far away and whispered:
"Tomorrow night, they will definitely sleep in the wilderness and do their thing there. It will ensure that no one will discover them for at least three or four days."
Bingyin sniffed:
"That is to say, if everything goes well, we can have three or four days to escape quietly?"
Lai Hou wrapped up his clothes and nodded.
Hyun thought about it and said:
"Three or four days is too short."
They also knew that three or four days was too short, so what could they do?
Jiazi thought for a moment:
"Let's play it by ear."
