Four days later, Yu Wenhao and Xu Yi disguised themselves as small officials delivering food and wages and set off in the team.
This batch, on the surface, is forage, but in fact they are all weapons.
The Royal Palace of Chu is still strict, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. Outsiders who want to spy on the wind can't detect it.
In Jiangbei Mansion, after King An set out on the expedition, Princess An took the princess on the road back to Beijing.
This was ordered by King An, because once the fight started and the front moved back, it would affect Jiangbei Mansion. The princess and the child were here. He was really worried, so he arranged for their mother and daughter to return to Beijing.
After the second batch of military rations were sent out of the capital, Wang Huai also left Beijing. He wanted to go to the nearby prefecture to prepare food and grass, and bid farewell to Rong Yue.
The husband-in-law went out for the first time, and Rong Yue felt even more unwilling to give up. He sent a cold-wolfman brother to follow him. Perhaps it was because of the obvious emotional fluctuations in pregnancy. When Wang Huai went out, she could not help but let go. Tears.
She was actually happy in her heart. Although she always said that she could protect King Huai, as long as he was in Beijing safely, she was very happy when he really wanted to stretch his ambition and realize his value.
After Wang Huai left, she moved to the Palace of the Chu Kingdom and stayed with Yuan Qing Ling A. She said that they were all pregnant women, living together with a caregiver, and the husbands and sons of the three had gone out and lived together. You won’t think about it, if one person thinks badly, the other two will immediately comfort him.
I thought that among the three people, the strongest would be Rong Yue, and the weakest would be Ah Si.
But after I stayed down, I discovered that Rong Yue was the one who was worried and worried. She always said that his health is not very good. This time he traveled a long distance and had to transport the food to the border in person, which means he would appear at the border. It's dangerous on the battlefield.
Ah Si comforted him. He is a money and food officer. There are so many capable people in the army. He doesn't need to go to the front line, and there is someone to protect him from the cold wolf door. There is absolutely no accident.
Although Ah Si comforted her so much, she couldn't rest assured, and another group of people followed.
Yuan Qingling has been studying Jinghu and things on the battlefield recently. She didn't worry too much. She didn't know why, but she always felt that the plan of praying for fire would succeed.
Besides, after Qi Huo left Beijing, he carried his head and headed straight to Beimo Camp.
The Northern Desert Army had been pressing forward for thirty miles. They had already learned that the Northern Tang Army was about to press on the border. It was said that Prince Anfeng had taken the command of the Supreme Emperor himself, and General Qin was at a time of impatience.
The Supreme Emperor’s imperial conquest was a great encouragement to the Northern Tang Army, and their battle was a defense battle. Soldiers had the heart to defend their homes and the country with death. Once this kind of momentum is on the battlefield, it will be Wanfumo. The courage of the enemy.
When he was anxious, someone yelled from the front, saying that he had taken the head of the Prince of North Tang and came to fetch the gold.
General Qin was shocked, and he immediately rode out his horse and led his people out. He saw that there was a horse riding in front of the battle. On the horse's back, an old man in coarse cloth was sitting. He was holding something in his hand, wrapped in white cloth, and looking at the shape. Like a human head.
General Qin galloped on his horse, looked at him condescendingly, and asked, "Are you a sword demon?"
Qi Huo threw the head of the person in his hand and said, "Don't care who I am. Since Bei Mo has issued a reward order, please give Jin Jin as promised."
The guard took the head and opened it first. When he saw that it was a head inside, it was presented in front of General Qin. General Qin stared at the head. He had been to Beitang twice, the last time. It was when the prince was set up in the Northern Tang Dynasty, he went with the Hongye of Xianbei, and he had a relationship with the prince several times, and he recognized this face.
The weather in the northern desert was cold and the sand was extremely windy. As soon as the head of this person showed up, the color of decay appeared. The residual moisture on his face was taken away by the wind. The fracture of the neck, the black solidified blood gave off a foul and rotten smell. .
General Qin looked at it for a long time before turning his eyes slowly, and said with pity: "It is really a pity that the prince died young."
"It's not a pity at all, it's worth a million gold at least!" Qi Huo looked at him, "General, where is the gold?"
General Qin's wish was fulfilled and he smiled slightly. His face that has been blown by wind and sand all the year round has very obvious wrinkles and deep trenches. He said: "A million taels of gold, and only one person will come, I am afraid that I will not bring it. It’s better to find someone first, who would have ordered someone to take you to get the gold!"
Qi Huo said indifferently: "No, I'm here prepared, and look behind me!"
He rode his horse back away, and General Qin looked at it with great eyes, and he saw that there was a team of bullock carts far away, and at a glance, there were dozens of bullock carts.
General Qin smiled and said, "Since it is prepared, that's good, it's just ten thousand taels of gold, and it really doesn't need so many people to come."
Qi Huo was furious, "What ten thousand taels of gold? You said it is a million taels of gold!"
General Qin laughed loudly, "Really? I'm afraid that the driver has heard it wrong. I would have said that it is ten thousand taels of gold. Come on, bring the gold up and send the sword demon out of the camp!"
Qi Huo narrowed his eyes, "Are you fooling me? The surname is Qin. Since I can get Yu Wenhao's head in the well-guarded Mansion of the King of Chu, I can also take your head from your thousands of troops. , Do you believe it or not?"
"Believe!" General Qin was not afraid at all, and even continued to plan to come forward immediately. "It's just this way, and you won't be able to get a couple of gold, isn't it a waste of this trip?"
Qi Huo stared at him with a dangerous tone in his tone, "It won't be in vain, kill the prince, and then kill the famous general of North Desert, my sword demon is also considered to be famous forever!"
General Qin was not afraid, "It is easy to take my head among the thousands of troops and horses, but it is not easy to escape among the thousands of horses. The respected driver is a person who knows the current affairs. There is enough gold, no matter how much it is, the respected driver can't carry it on his back, so let's do it!"
He raised his hand and screamed, and he saw a group of archers suddenly appeared in all directions. There were more and more archers, densely packed, and there were no less than 30,000 or 40,000 people. He quickly surrounded the fire-praying regiments. The speed and swiftness are especially evident.
Qi Huo's eyes jumped with anger, and said coldly: "Do you think I'll be scared in this way?"
General Qin suppressed his hand and said: "Don't get me wrong, this is not against you. The war is about to come. They are just being ordered to protect the general. The commander killed the Prince of North Tang, my benefactor to the North Desert. They will not treat him. Please don't worry about it."
Qi Huo gritted his teeth, "No matter, one hundred thousand taels of gold, one or two less, I will fight you this life!"
After he finished speaking, he took the wind out, and immediately swept away seven or eight people around him. When this palm was urged, General Qin also felt a fierce aura, he squinted his eyes and looked at Qi. Huo, sighed: "It's better to stay in the army. When the war is over, millions of gold will be offered with both hands."
Qi Huo sneered, "I'm going to kill the enemy for you. In the end, I am afraid I will be treated in this way. One hundred thousand taels of gold, please send it to my bullock cart as soon as possible. Otherwise, today will be a dead fish. Telling you to ruin my fame."
It was a million taels of gold, but in the end only got 10%. The sound of praying for fire was full of resentment and unwillingness, but it seemed that he was forced by the situation and had to compromise.
General Qin stared at him for a long time before he slowly said: "Come here, deliver one hundred thousand taels of gold!"
