This time Yang Jie and others’ destination is Yanghekou.

This is the pass closest to the old camp of Wala. At the beginning, we divided our troops into three groups to attack Ming Dynasty. The reason why Yanghekou was chosen as the first pass to attack was precisely for this reason. After all, the distance was short, which meant that it was more difficult to attack Ming Dynasty.

Easy to replenish.

However, even so, it still takes three to four hundred miles. If the cavalry is galloping, it will of course be much faster. But Yang Jie is riding a carriage, and it is already winter on the grassland, and the sky is full of wind and snow, so on the first day

, they didn’t go far before they had to stop and set up camp.

At night, Yang Jun insisted on living in the same camp as Yang Jie to prevent accidents.

In the bright light, Yang Jie was leaning on the couch, holding a book in his hand. He looked up at Yang Jun, who always held the long knife in his arms, shook his head and said.

"Second brother, there's no need to be so nervous. Since you let us go first, you won't go back on your word. Besides, there are still five hundred watts of cavalry outside. If they really want to attack us, it's useless to be so nervous. Why not take a good rest tomorrow?

I still have to get up early and rush on my way.”

In contrast, Yang Jun looked helpless at Yang Jie who looked relaxed.

He still hasn't figured out how his younger brother can be so confident.

After taking a look at Yang Jie's general who was still on duty outside, he felt a little relieved. After a moment of hesitation, he put the long knife beside him, turned to Yang Jie, and asked.

"Xiaojie, what exactly happened today?"

Yang Jun felt it was inappropriate to ask this question, because to be more precise, he could not understand the development of things since Bodu sent them to see Yang Jie yesterday.

According to the information previously obtained, Yang Jie went to the Torgut tribe in order to provoke Bedu and let him attack and kill Ye first, so as to achieve the purpose of causing civil strife in Oara.

However, Bodu was cunning and did not listen to Yang Jie's words and directly handed Yang Jie over to Ye Xian. Yang Jie himself was imprisoned for this.

Judging from this news, Yang Jie's plan should have failed.

At first, Yang Jun thought so too. This can be seen from the fact that Bedu can still hold a high position in the Wala Camp without any damage.

After arriving at Wala Lao Camp, Bodu and others had a warm banquet first, and then later planned their escape. Although there was something strange in this, Yang Jundu could probably understand it.

After all, they have something they want.

However, since meeting Yang Jie, Yang Jun couldn't understand everything that had happened.

The first is Bodu's attitude. Outside the Wala camp, he brought so many cavalry with him, and he had a tough attitude that he would shoot them all on the spot if they could not find out the imperial decree. However, when he came to Yang Jie, he did not show any reaction at all.

Not even mentioned.

Well, even Bo felt that they were all under Wala's control and were not in a hurry, but what happened the next day...

Yang Jun knew that he was not a smart-minded person, but he believed that even if his eldest brother came over, his brain would probably turn into a ball of mush after seeing everything that happened today.

There were so many questions that Yang Jun didn't know where to start, so he could only ask vaguely.

Looking at Yang Jun's expression, Yang Jie put down the book in his hand. Liu Hong had already told him clearly all the details after Yang Jun arrived at Wala Camp. Therefore, as to what Yang Jun was wondering about, Yang Jie

Naturally it is clear.

However, he did not challenge it, but pondered for a moment and asked.

"Second brother wants to ask why I believe he will let us go first, but not Bodu, right?"

Yang Jun blinked, hesitated for a moment, and nodded slightly.

He does have many doubts, but the most critical thing at the moment is obviously this.

After all, they are still within Wala's sphere of influence. If he changes his mind first, then he doesn't even need to send a large army. He only needs to send a light cavalry to convey his orders to the five hundred cavalry outside, which will be enough for them all.

People are buried in the grassland.

So, Yang Jie raised his head, paused for a moment, as if thinking about where to start, and then he spoke.

"Before answering this question, second brother, you can think about it first. The place where I am under house arrest is dozens of miles away from Wala Lao Camp. Why can I contact him overnight?"

Yang Jun was stunned and frowned.

He saw so many strange things today that he didn't notice it at all.

In other words, he subconsciously felt that this was not something that needed to be considered at all.

Yang Jie was imprisoned in Oara. Whether it was his identity as the son of the Marquis of Changping, his strategy of provoking civil strife in Oara, or his courage to take risks alone, it was destined that he would be taken seriously by Ye Xian.

So, is it difficult to contact Ye Xian?

Originally, Yang Jun thought this was not a question that needed to be thought about, but when Yang Jie asked it, he thought about it carefully and found that the answer was exactly the opposite.

The reason is actually very simple. Yang Jie actually said it just now.

distance!

If Yang Jie was imprisoned in the Wala Lao Camp, then it would certainly not be difficult for him to see him first.

However, Yang Jie was imprisoned twenty miles away from Wala Lao Camp. At this distance, unless someone specially sent a message for Yang Jie, it would be impossible for Yang Jie to contact him so quickly.

But the problem is that, judging from the various signs after he arrived at Wala Lao Camp, the affairs regarding Yang Jie should have been handed over to Bodu first.

From the time they entered the camp, to the multi-day banquet, to the subsequent hunt, and then to taking them to see Yang Jie, it was all arranged by Bodu. He only appeared on the first day, and then never again.

appeared before them.

Therefore, logically speaking, if Yang Jie finds someone to deliver a message for him, it should be delivered to Bodu first.

However, looking at Bodu's expression today, he obviously had no idea about Ye Xian's sudden arrival.

So, where is the problem?

Yang Jun recalled the experiences of these days, and two scenes suddenly flashed in his mind...

"Personal Guard!"

"In the camp, the people responsible for guarding you are not the people from Bedu, but Ye Xian's personal guards!"

He clearly remembered that when he first arrived at the camp where Yang Jie was imprisoned, Bodu mentioned that there were 800 guards in the camp, and most of them were personally recruited from among his own personal guards.

Moreover, he also remembered that when he entered the camp at that time, he was able to enter the camp smoothly only by relying on the token in his hand.

This also means that, in fact, at least the camp where Yang Jie is imprisoned is not completely controlled by Bodu.

On the contrary, from the fact that he still needs a token to enter the camp, it can be seen that the eight hundred guards in the camp have their own independence. In other words, only Ye Xian can command them.

In this case, it is not surprising that they were able to cross Batu and contact Yexian directly.

And, more importantly...

"It seems that the second brother has also thought of it."

Looking at Yang Jun's expression, Yang Jie smiled and said.

"The relationship between Bodu and Yexian is not as good as it seems!"

Yang Jun nodded slightly.

On this point, in fact, Yang Jun also had a vague guess about the attitude towards Bodu starting from today.

However, Ye Xian had always been cruel, so Yang Jun was not sure at the time whether his flogging of Bodu had other motives or simply because Bodu had offended his majesty.

After all, judging from Batu's status in Wala these days, he is still one of the most powerful people in Wala.

So, Yang Jie suppressed his smile and said.

"What I wanted to do when I came to Wala this time was to sow discord within Wala. Bodu handed me over to Ye Xian to show his loyalty, but he forgot that Ye Xian was the one with the most cunning suspicion.

people."

"When he hands me over, he will definitely rely on me more on the surface, but secretly, he will definitely be more vigilant."

"This is my chance!"

As he spoke, Yang Jie sighed, his eyes flashed, and he asked.

"Second brother, do you know why I chose Bodu among the many Wala nobles to lobby?"

"this……"

Yang Jun rubbed his hands, feeling a little embarrassed.

He really hadn't thought about this problem.

You should know that Totuo Buhua only has one brother, Aga Dorji, but Ye Xian has many brothers, not just Bodu.

So, even if you have to choose one to betray first, why Bodu?

Yang Jie naturally understood his second brother, and he had no intention of embarrassing Yang Jun, so he naturally continued and spoke.

"Actually, I made a lot of preparations before leaving the capital this time. With His Majesty's orders, I not only read all the official documents from the Ministry of War regarding Oara, but also saw a lot of confidential information hidden among the Jinyi Guards."

"Later, after I left the capital, I went to Datong for some reasons and personally visited Lord Guo Dengguo, who had faced off against Bodu many times. The combination of information from various sources allowed me to finally come to a conclusion."

"What conclusion?"

Yang Jun asked.

Yang Jie's expression also became serious and he said.

"Among the entire Oara, Bodu is the most likely to succeed if he wants to usurp the throne!"

"From various sources, this person has several characteristics."
