"Brother Lin, of course I know that you have lofty aspirations and an upright character. If it were my Dahua sister, I, Lao Gao, would never do such a thing that is inferior to a beast. But, she is a Turkic woman! The Turkic people raped us How many Dahua women? This bloody feud, when will we get revenge?! Robbing a Turkic woman, can that be called robbing?! This is the duty of every upright Dahua man, to avenge my Dahua sisters , Win glory for the great China and all the people!" Gao Chief was filled with righteous indignation, and his saliva was flying all over the sky.
"Snatching a Turkic woman isn't called snatching? That's great—oh, no, brother Gao, you heard me wrong, I said it too early!" Master Lin hurriedly changed his words, and said with a serious face: "I mean, no matter what Wait until we reach the Turkic royal court and overthrow Vija Khan’s violent rule before we start to rob it. Our ideals should be bigger—Brother Gao, where are you hiding the Turkic woman? I’m going to find her for revenge!!!”
"She should have been brought back—when we searched a private house, we had already found the carriage that the female spy was riding in when we entered the city," Gao Chief sighed and said regretfully, "But Du Xiuyuan is a fool." , It must be said that the commander-in-chief's military regulations are not allowed to rob people's property, and those who violate the military law will be dealt with. Before entering the yard, he stopped me. Don't you think you can't be angry? We are robbing women, which is completely different from robbing property! Lin Brother, you have to teach Du Xiuyuan well, if his flexibility can catch up to one ten-thousandth of yours, he will definitely win the fight against barbarians."
It turned out that "Yueyaer" hadn't been caught yet, Lin Wanrong let out a long breath, feeling a little disappointed in his heart, patted Gao Chief on the shoulder and said: "Brother Gao, what Du Xiuyuan said is also reasonable, after all, it is not good to rob civilian girls. We should all condemn this kind of atrocity. However, if the civilian girl is a spy, it should be a different matter. However, you have no evidence to prove this, so you can’t just say that she is a spy just because she is beautiful! This principle does not work, what we are pursuing is convincing people with virtue.”
Want to prove that she is a spy? The high chief said hehe: "Is there any need to prove it?! In the chaos of war, if a decent woman, who would let her show her face and haunt this dangerous situation? Only a female spy has the courage , that’s why it’s necessary—look at her pretty appearance, she’s as powerful as a thousand horses with just one look in her eyes. If she’s not a spy, is there any reason?!”
"Oh, is it?" Lin Wanrong nodded slightly: "It seems to make sense. However, our army is a disciplined force, and there is no evidence, so we can't casually plant charges."
Seeing that Brother Lin seemed unmoved, Gao Chief hurriedly pulled him back, winked and said: "Brother, wartime is extraordinary, so many accidents happened tonight, even the marshal almost had an accident, and that female spy happened to be this She appeared in the city at a certain time. If it’s a coincidence, it’s too coincidental! It’s necessary to take precautions! Even if she’s not a spy, we can’t let a pure, innocent and weak woman fall into the flames of war. Look at What a sin it is for a flower to wither, Brother Lin, you are graceful and suave, how can you bear to do such a cruel thing?! This is not your style!"
"Forget it, soft-heartedness has always been my biggest problem." General Lin sighed: "I'll go and see it with you. If she's really a spy, take her back to my tent and interrogate her! If it's the good family of the barbarians Girl, let her walk quickly, this ruthless gunfire, if her face is hurt, her parents should be so worried! In case she can't find her family in a while, I can only follow the principle of humanitarian rescue, first Temporarily taking her in—hey, Brother Gao, why are you staring at me, doubting my character?! It’s just taking her in temporarily, not taking over the house.”
The high chief winked, clasped his fists and laughed, with an indescribably wretched expression: "In that case, I would like to thank General Lin for her kindness on behalf of that Turkic woman. Alas, for an upright person like Mr. I've never seen it before, and this Turkic woman didn't know what kind of luck she had to meet you!"
The two laughed nastyly at the same time, and immediately the high chief led the way, and Lin Wanrong led his own soldiers, and together they captured the female spy and went away.
The Xingqing Mansion was full of wars, and the city was sparsely populated. Tonight, a barbarian assassinated Li Tai. The army was searching everywhere, and the city was no longer as peaceful as it used to be.
The high chief fumbled around, stopped at a small alley near the north gate of the city, looked around a few times, and said carefully in a low voice: "Brother Lin, we are here. The Turkic female spy is hiding in the front of the private house." inside."
Lin Wanrong raised his eyes and looked forward, the alley was dark in midwinter, the road could not be seen clearly, the walls on both sides were either collapsed or broken, and they were already in ruins. Fifty or sixty feet away from him, in a courtyard made of earthen walls, lights flickered slightly. The yard occupies a wide area, with several carriages parked in the middle, and goods piled up beside it, and the sound of horse sneezing can be heard from time to time. It is the caravan I saw when I entered the city today, and "Crescent Moon" seems to be here.
Du Xiuyuan brought his men and horses and was waiting in the dark. When he saw Lin Wanrong coming, he hurried over and said, "General Lin, you are here."
Lin Wanrong nodded with a solemn expression: "Brother Du has worked hard. Just now I was dealing with military affairs in the camp. Brother Gao came back and reported that the situation here is strange, and there may be important Hu spies hiding, which greatly threatens the safety of the marshal. I Don't worry, let's take a look. How's the situation inside? How many barbarians are there? Are there any strong bows and crossbows? Don't worry. There are three thousand battalions, and we will come to assist you together, all the armies are already on the way, and they will arrive in a short while."
It is a master archer and a cannon. Master Lin described the situation in such a serious way. Du Xiuyuan secretly clicked his tongue when he heard it, and hurriedly gave the high chief who "lied about the military situation" a look. Lao Gao was detained for shit, but he couldn't argue, he could only laugh dryly twice to express his apology.
"General, the people living in this yard are the caravans we saw when we entered the city. There are ten camels and five carriages. Since we dare not startle the snake, the total number of people inside is still unknown, but it will be estimated at the end of the day." , There will never be more than 30 people. Most of these people are Dahua people, and they have not been equipped with weapons, nor have they shown obvious characteristics of spies. Whether they are spies sent by the Hu people remains to be verified."
Du Xiuyuan roughly described the situation inside, Lin Wanrong nodded, and praised: "Brother Du, it's well done! If there are really only more than 30 people, then the Shenji Camp seems to be useless—"
With such a large courtyard, how many people can be hidden? Du Xiuyuan clasped his fists and said firmly, "Even if the courtyard is full of spies, the general has enough confidence to deal with it. There is no need to send troops to help. General, please rest assured."
"Well, the Shenji Camp and the Bu Battalion will not be adjusted," Lin Wanrong said, "just follow the original plan. The assassination of the Marshal tonight will have a great impact on our army. Therefore, to every barbarian in the city, Especially the beautiful barbarians, we must never let them go, we must check carefully."
Du Xiuyuan responded, and led the soldiers to surround the house. The chieftain rushed to the front and slammed the gate of the house, shouting angrily: "Open the door, open the door, the officers and soldiers are conducting house inspections!"
The soldiers' swords and guns clattered, which made the mules and horses in the courtyard howl in fright, and seethe all around.
After waiting for a while, a trembling voice came from the crack of the door: "My lord, we are a caravan from Longxi, doing business outside the Great Wall—"
"Stop talking nonsense!" Gao Chief waited impatiently, and before he finished speaking, he kicked open the gate, hundreds of soldiers rushed in like a flood, and the blazing fire reflected the shining steel knife, scaring the merchants who opened the gate. Sitting down on the ground.
Hearing the sound in the courtyard, the Dahua merchants who were resting in the house had already put on their clothes and got up. Seeing the high chieftain and Du Xiuyuan leading troops and horses, murderously barging in, the steel knife was placed in front of everyone, and the merchants immediately turned pale. Pale, trembling like chaff all over. There are a few Turkic people among these big Chinese businessmen, although their clothes are also messy, their expressions are much calmer. Seeing the panic-stricken and trembling appearance of the Dahua merchants, a look of contempt suddenly flashed in their eyes.
The high chief pulled out his saber with a clatter, and howled angrily: "Officers and soldiers round the house, those who have clothes wear clothes, and those who don't wear sacks! Listen to my password now: men are on the left, women are on the right, and the mules stand in the middle—"
His face was dark, bull's eyes were like bells, and he looked fierce. Not to mention the big Chinese merchants, even the few Turkic merchants dared not look at him. "Brother Gao is so imposing!" Even Du Xiuyuan couldn't help but praise him.
Gao Chief let out a few hey heys triumphantly, then turned his head away but was a little silly. The left side of the mule and horse was full of people, but there was not even a female cockroach on the right side.
"Huh," Gao Chief was annoyed immediately, waved his steel knife, and said angrily, "Are there only so few people? Women, ah no, where are the spies, where are the pretty spies?"
The businessman who opened the door looked about forty years old, and he seemed to be the leader of the caravan. Seeing this official wielding a steel knife to kill someone, he endured the fear in his heart, cupped his fists and said cautiously: "My lord, what are you spies?! Oh my god!" Wrong! We are all serious businessmen from Longxi Mansion. Look, I still have the approval document from Longxi Mansion on me."
Du Xiuyuan glanced at the approval document, nodded and said: "You said you were in business in Longxi Prefecture, so what about them—"
He glanced at those Turkic people and snorted a few times. The leading businessman hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, you misunderstood. These are friendly businessmen from the grasslands, and they are also anti-war insiders in the Turks. Look, Longxi Prefecture also has approval documents!"
He took out the letterhead with the official seal from his body and wanted to hand it over. Gao Chief glared, snatched the approval, threw it on the ground and stomped on it a few times, angrily said: "Approval? I can’t see it. Let me ask you, are there only a few Turkic businessmen and anti-war activists you are talking about?!”
The leader nodded: "There are only a few of them now."
"No women?!"
The leader hesitated for a moment before saying: "No."
Lin Wanrong followed Gao Chief and Du Xiuyuan and watched with cold eyes. When Gao Chief was questioning, those Turkic people's eyes flickered, and they kept looking into the curtain of the inner room. The curtain swayed slightly, as if hiding something.
"No?!" Gao Chief swung his steel knife and was about to go mad, Lin Wanrong stopped him with a smile: "Brother Gao, have you forgotten, we said, conquer people with virtue!!"
At this time, do you want to convince people with virtue? The high chief is dripping with cold sweat. Lin Wanrong pointed to the curtain, and shouted with a smile: "Hey, is there anyone inside?!"
The expressions on the faces of several Turkic businessmen gradually became dignified, and they clenched their fists tightly.
Looking at the swaying curtain, the high chief also came to his senses. With a smile, he went to Lin Wanrong's side and said, "Brother, he is a Turkic. He doesn't understand our Dahua dialect. He should use Turkic language. Hey, that old man, Is there anyone inside? How do you say this in Turkic?"
The old man he was talking about refers to the leader of the businessman. The businessman chattered and translated for a while, and the high chief shook his head and stared at Lin Wanrong with expectant eyes: "Brother Lin, you are so smart, this Turkic word must not be used That's it."
"Isn't it the Turkic language? It's simple!" Mr. Lin laughed, without blinking his eyelids, and shouted into the curtain, "There are people in there? Come out, work!"
Gao Chief was stunned, and suddenly rejoiced: "Brother Lin, you are so smart. This Turkic dialect is really easy to understand, I can understand half of it."
The word "Turk" was also shouted, but the curtain was so silent that even the sound of a needle falling could be heard. Lin Wanrong snorted and said coldly in Mandarin: "I'll count to five, and if you don't come out, I will They sent people to kill them directly. Brother Gao, prepare to—”
Do you still need to count to five? Brother Lin is too merciful, Gao Chief was sighing, and Lin Wanrong said loudly: "Five!!! Brothers, go!"
It turned out to be such a way of shouting, Gao Chief was sweating profusely, he was a little stunned, and Du Xiuyuan had already rushed in front of him. Dozens of soldiers rushed into the room. There was no piercing sound of swords and guns clashing, let alone the expected exclamation. The room was so quiet that even the sound of a needle being dropped could be heard.
"What's going on?!" Seeing Du Xiuyuan walking out dejectedly, Lin Wanrong was a little surprised.
Du Xiuyuan lowered his head and whispered: "General, there is no one!"
No one?! Lin Wanrong lifted the curtain and walked slowly into the room. This is an inner room surrounded by soil, the furnishings in the room are simple, the yellow mud is plated into an earth kang, and there is a small coffee table on the kang, it is neatly tidied up, and there is no trace of dust. Sure enough, there was no one there! But this is obviously the caravan where "Yueyaer" was, how could this Turkic girl be missing? Lin Wanrong frowned, unable to figure it out.
There is a faint fragrance floating in the air, like the mist in the spring morning, without a trace. He sniffed vigorously, and a look of astonishment suddenly appeared on his face. The smell was all too familiar, and it was the famous Lin's perfume from Dahua. How could this jasmine-scented perfume appear in the desert beyond the Great Wall? Could it be brought over by "Crescent Moon"? From this point of view, the Turkic girl must have stopped in this room. Unexpectedly, Lin's perfume had already spread to Turks, Lin Wanrong shook his head, not knowing whether it was sadness or joy.
"General, look, what is that?" Du Xiuyuan led people to search carefully, and suddenly found something beside the pillow of the kang. The thing is tightly glued together by seven finger-thick bamboo joints, the lengths and heights are different, and holes are dug in the middle of each joint, but the positions of the holes are different.
Lin Wanrong picked up this thing, stroked it a few times, then slowly brought it to his mouth, and blew lightly, the bamboo joints made a crisp beeping sound, which was very pleasant to the ear.
Du Xiuyuan wondered: "So it's a musical instrument. I've never seen this thing before, and I don't know what it's called."
Lin Wanrong smiled, crossed his hands, and pressed a few holes, and then a few long green flutes jumped out, cadenced and tuned, which was really pleasant to hear.
"Hey, brother, you still know how to play the flute?!" Gao Chief came in and wondered.
Lord Lin gritted his teeth and snorted: "Blow the flute. This thing is called Yujia, and it is a musical instrument on the grassland. When you play this Yujia, its scientific name is Pinyu. It is a difficult job like blowing a flute. I won't!"
There seemed to be a faint fragrance drifting from the corner of his mouth, and there was still a faint delicate feeling. He looked down, but saw that there was some rouge and light red faintly left on the mouth of the bamboo tube of the jade casket, forming a shallow crescent on the bamboo raft. Son.
This jade cage was actually used by "Yueyaer"! Lin Wanrong said hey, she blew on me, which is equivalent to kissing goodbye! I just don't know if it was the girl's first kiss
Not catching the beautiful spy, the high chief was dejected, pulled the leading merchant in, and said angrily, "Where did the Turkic woman who went to the city with you today go?"
The businessman suddenly realized: "My lord, so you are talking about her."
Lin Wanrong said leisurely: "What's her name?"
Judging from Du Xiuyuan and Gao Chief's attitude towards Lin Wanrong, we know that this is a big shot. The merchant didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly said: "I don't even know her name. This girl was introduced by a Hu merchant on the way, and there were a few people with her. She seldom spoke except for smiling. They Today I rested here until the evening, and then parted ways with us. Judging from the tone, it seems that this girl is homesick and wants to go back to the grassland overnight."
So, Yue Ya'er left before the city was closed?! Lin Wanrong groaned, looking at the lip print on the jade casket, he was a little dazed for a while.
