Ye Bu accepted that it was him, and his expression changed instantly, "Didn't you just pass us by today? Why did you catch up with our team again at night?"
The leader's face changed when he saw Ye Bushou, and he said with a flattering smile: "Brother, to be honest, we found a landslide as soon as we entered the mountain today. The big rocks rolling down the mountain may not be able to be pulled by ten horses.
There is no other way for everyone's safety, so we can only return it first. We are really sorry for causing trouble to you!"
"Landslide?" Upon hearing this, Ye Bushou felt that he was making things up. It had indeed rained a few days ago, but the amount of rain was not enough to cause a landslide.
But facing this hypocritical face, Ye Bushou did not expose him immediately, but nodded: "Then you are quite unlucky!"
"Who says it's not the case!" The leader of the caravan looked much better after seeing the night, and he felt relieved, "I know that when you are marching and fighting, it is most taboo to have close contact with unrelated people next to you. Don't worry, we are only here.
Take a rest for the night, we will try not to make any noise here tonight to disturb you!"
Ye Bushou nodded: "This is the best, and it will save me from embarrassment!"
If people here don't know what's going on here, he doesn't mind being a villain and driving their caravan farther away.
After Ye Buqiu left, the members of the caravan looked at the retreating figures and said: "Be careful enough! Rumors say that King Qian is just a fool. Why do I think the strength of the soldiers and horses he brings should not be underestimated?"
"You are quite vigilant! We must be extra careful this time so as not to let them notice." The leader snorted coldly and did not forget to warn his team members.
He returned to the camp at night and reported the situation to King Qian.
King Qian was slightly surprised after hearing what he said. He looked at Rongrang and asked, "Is the mountain road we are passing prone to landslides?"
Xiang Rongrang glanced at Ye Bushou, and said to King Qian who was sitting at the top: "In mountainous areas, rainfall is usually heavy or rapid, and mountains are prone to landslides. The rainfall in the past few days was not heavy, so the possibility of landslides is very small.
.For the sake of safety, we will have people take turns monitoring the caravan tonight, and if anything goes wrong, we will warn you directly!"
Ye Busu took the order and left, sending a small team to station near the caravan.
When the leader of the caravan saw this, he just smiled and told the team members that it was time to eat and drink, not to have any burdens at night, and to sleep.
"Boss, they are really suspicious of us!"
"If you get suspicious, get suspicious. Let's have an early dinner and rest early tonight. After traveling for so many days, everyone is almost exhausted."
Everyone is indeed very tired. In ancient times, the road conditions were not good, and the public security was even worse. When you go out, your nerves are always tense, and people get tired easily.
The soldiers who were watching did not dare to look at each other all night long. As a result, the caravan was very quiet all night. Apart from the snoring, the only sound was the rustling of leaves in the mountain wind.
King Qian came to bed the next day and learned that the caravan had done nothing unusual last night. He yawned and got up and went to wash up outside the tent.
When Xiang Rongrang heard the report from his men, he looked in the direction of the caravan and frowned.
"Sir, what's wrong with the caravan?" Guard Xiao Song asked doubtfully.
Xiang Rongrang shook his head, "I don't know what's wrong, I just feel like something is wrong, but I can't put it in words."
Xiao Song looked at the location of the caravan, frowned and thought for a while, then said: "I heard that they slept until dawn last night, so there should be no problem. If they don't find the problem place, I think the only problem is where their caravan is stationed.
The terrain is higher than ours."
"The terrain is high?" King Qian came over after washing up. He happened to hear Xiaosong's words and said with a smile: "This flat land is occupied by us. They can only station on it. Otherwise, where can they station?"
Xiaosong scratched his head. He didn't know whether what King Qian said was right, but he still insisted on telling his point of view, "But they were the first to arrive in this area yesterday. Did they know that we would come to station here, so they deliberately
Is this open space left for us?”
"This" King Qian looked at Rongrang.
Xiang Rongrang had a look of horror on his face now.
"What? What's wrong?" King Qian was startled by Xiang Rongrang's expression.
Xiang Rongrang suddenly turned his head to look at Xiaosong and asked eagerly: "Is the breakfast camp ready for today?"
Although Xiaosong didn't know what he meant by asking this, he thought there must be something wrong with the breakfast, so he didn't dare to neglect and replied: "It's ready. The captain of the first ten teams has already taken them to eat first!"
Xiang Rongrang became anxious, raised his legs and hurried towards Huotou Camp, and told Xiao Song: "Go and invite all the general doctors!"
"yes!"
Xiaosong ran away to the military medical camp.
King Qian had lived in the royal family since he was a child. When he heard what Xiang Rongrang said, he knew what he meant. He was afraid that there was something wrong with the food!
"Dang Dang Dang"
The police gong in the military camp rang quickly in the early morning, and the soldiers came out of their tents when they heard the noise.
"What's going on?"
"There is no enemy situation around."
"Stop thinking about it, quickly bring your weapons and assemble!"
The caravan stationed upstream must have heard the commotion in the military camp downstream.
They had been paying attention to the movements below, and now they saw the soldiers in the military camp gathering in an orderly manner.
They suddenly felt that something was not good, but if they wanted to escape, they would definitely not be able to escape the royal soldiers and horses below.
"Boss, what should I do? I see that not many soldiers and horses in the military camp below are affected?"
The leader of the team looked at the well-trained soldiers lined up neatly below and gritted his teeth: "Leave all the carriages and supplies behind. Let our people lead the horses and slowly exit the tent camp. Be careful not to cause any accidents."
There's a big movement, let's retreat before they can react!"
Even if you can't escape, if something happens, you have to escape if you don't want to!
In the military camp downstream, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses gathered, and the commotion was quite loud.
Xiang Rongrang didn't wait for the entire team to assemble, so he arranged for several thousand households to take their soldiers and horses to surround and annihilate the caravan stationed upriver.
King Qian arrived at Huotou Camp one step slower than Xiang Rongrang. When he arrived at Huotou Camp and saw the soldiers lying on the ground, he was so angry that he almost couldn't breathe.
Thousands of soldiers fell to the ground, and the leftover steamed buns they had eaten in the morning were scattered around them. Looking at their painful looks, it was clear that they were collectively poisoned.
You don’t even need to check to know that the caravan upstream did it!
"Capture that caravan to me, especially the leader. If you want to survive, I will kill him with a thousand cuts to vent my hatred!"
He was so angry that he dared to poison his soldiers and horses. He would have to bear the consequences. Even a quick death would be a luxury!
Anu took the order to find Xiang Rongrang and convey the prince's order to him.
By the time Anu found Xiang Rongrang, thousands of vanguards had already attacked upstream.
"You go back and reassure the prince. I will keep the leader of the thief alive and let the prince do whatever he wants!"
Anu was quite satisfied with his words, "Very good! If you dare to put our Prince Qian's troops to death, please don't be soft-hearted, Mr. Xiang. Kill those who can kill. Your Majesty only wants the life of the leader of the thieves. You can do whatever you want with the rest."
Dispose of it!"
Before all the members of the caravan could evacuate and escape, thousands of soldiers and horses under Xiang Rongrang had already attacked.
The leader of the caravan panicked and asked his team members to turn around and fight back. However, at this critical moment of life and death, few people listened to the leader's order.
The leader was trying to scold his mother as he burrowed desperately into the forest, "These are really the soldiers and horses of the Yu Dynasty, how can they react so quickly?"
The matter was less than half over, but before she could come up with a countermeasure, troops several times her number were already approaching the city!
Is this lightning-like speed really the speed that Yu's army should have?
"I've long seen you as a sly person. I just didn't expose you before. Now that the incident has happened, please come down quickly and come with us to the camp to discuss how you should apologize to our poisoned soldiers next?"
The soldiers chased and shouted, scaring the caravan members into running faster.
"Leader, what should we do? Where should we escape? If you are unfamiliar with this place, wandering around in this mountain, you really won't be able to find a way out!"
The leader of the caravan was panting from exhaustion, and his heart was beating so fast in his chest that it felt like it was about to jump out.
"If you don't know where to escape, just go straight into the mountains. The most important thing is to temporarily escape the pursuit of the palace soldiers and horses!"
How could their caravan of more than a hundred people resist the pursuit of thousands of soldiers and horses?
The final result was that everyone in this caravan was sent to King Qian's own mine, and once settled, they would create wealth for King Qian.
Of course this is a later story.
In the end, King Qian did not expect that the enemies hiding in the dark would take advantage of him and cunningly poison the soldiers.
As a result, the management in the military camp has become a lot lax now. The soldiers all think that they can take a vacation if they want and ask for leave if they want. It is not a big deal.
There were even soldiers who actively asked to return to Lingnan.
Thousands of soldiers who were poisoned were diagnosed by military doctors and found that their conditions were basically the same. They were all poisoned through eating.
The palace's soldiers and horses were once again delayed in their progress. By the time the poisoned soldiers recovered, it would be almost the next month.
"If you let me know who is behind this, I will definitely capture him, chop him into pieces, and feed him to the dogs!" King Qian gritted his teeth with hatred for the person who was behind this, and vowed to find him.
In order to prevent him from rushing to Jiankang's aid, he actually came up with such a dirty trick!
You really don’t take the lives of soldiers seriously and ignore the preciousness of life!

The spring rain is lingering. There have been several spring rains in Lingnan, and the weather is gradually getting warmer.
No matter how cold it is in the north, Lingnan has already ushered in a busy farming season.
The seedlings raised in advance by Wangfu and Xiaji Grange have grown to half a finger's height.
There is no need to consider that the paddy fields in the farm will definitely be planted with rice. In the other dry land, Xia Jing plans to plant some crops from later generations in the space.
As soon as she thought of it, Xia Jing took out many varieties of vegetables and grain seeds in the space.
The dry land in Xia Ji Farm was planted with the seeds she took out. Presumably, after a year of planting in the farm, other surrounding villages would also rush to plant them.
This is how new crops must be promoted slowly.
In addition to the out-of-season vegetables grown last winter, many tenants in the farm came to her to ask for vegetable seedlings.
Zuo Jiuchuan looked at the endless fields of the farm. The plowed land had turned an earthy yellow color, and it was so bare that it affected the vision.
"I think back when the four major families in Lingnan got these wastelands and kept them vacant, they never thought that if these fields were not planted, they would have wasted a year's worth of land."
Looking at the rice produced, those who don’t know the truth would think it’s a scam.
How can the yield of one acre of land be so high?
But that's the truth.
Of course, Xia Jing would not break this layer of window paper. She took the rice seeds from space. They are hybrid rice from later generations. Compared with the production level at this time in ancient times, the yield must be very excellent.
"Plant the cultivated rice seedlings on dry land. If there are any leftover seedlings, don't destroy them just because you want to do exclusive business. If your neighbors want the remaining seedlings, let them take some back."
From the beginning of promoting these new crops, she never thought about hiding them.
"Young lady, I've written it down. I'll do as the princess said." Zuo Jiuchuan responded.
Xia Jing walked to the edge of the paddy field where the seedlings were being raised, squatted down and measured the height of the seedlings.
"In about seven days, these rice seedlings will be ready for transplanting. Let us take advantage of these few days to sort out the paddy fields in the farm."
Zuo Jiuchuan was afraid of forgetting what he told Xia Jing, so he wrote it down in a small notebook for easy reference!
Hongmei followed and paid attention to her surroundings. When she saw "" riding a bicycle,

I got home late today, and the four thousand words before twelve o'clock were still a little short of. It's a bit repetitive, so I'll update it first and correct it immediately.
