It is said that he is returning lightly, and the armor and equipment used by Zhen himself when he goes back are all carried by himself, "This is the foundation of the military", and he must not be sloppy at any time. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info fortunately, Tianjin Wei has money and horses, and everyone is a three-horse 'rotates to carry people and armor weapons.

Wang Tong set up many post stations in the form of inns and big car shops between Jingshi and Tianjin Wei, which also provided convenience for their travelers, and they could replenish dry food and forage at any time along the way.

But the three horses rotated 'very fast', because the cattle went out, and they calculated that they would sleep at a post station somewhere at night, and they would leave early the next morning, and they would be able to be in Tianjin at night.

Not long after passing Tongzhou, a fast horse messenger caught up with him from the Jingshi side, but the messenger was a close confidant of Li Wenyuan, and after catching up with Wang Tong's party, he handed over a fire paint envelope. letterhead.

looked at the fire paint on the sealed letterhead, and the fire paint had the word "Zou" on it, intact, and the messenger who sent the letter saw that Wang Tongjian had seen the fire paint, and left directly.

Wang Tong unfolded the letter, and the few sentences written by Du Yi on it were very simple: "Zhang Siwei will be assisted, and Jinyi Wei will command the commander of the position!" ’’

Wang Tong's face was a little heavy after reading the letterhead, "Looking around, Li Hutou and Li Tao and others are staring," he smiled and put the letter in. Bag, said: "Don't worry about the 'little things!!' ’’

"Big brother, could it be that something happened to Jingshi's side and you want us to go back?" ’

Li Hutou asked worriedly, Wang Tong shook his head with a smile, and said while driving the horses forward: "There are so many civil and military officials in the Beijing Division, General Chen and Mr. Yang, and they are still there, so we have to go back to deal with any major matters." ’’

“…… If we hadn't rushed over, I'm afraid something big would have happened in the palace that night......"

Li Hutou muttered unconvinced, but stopped asking.

On the road, anyone can see that Wang Tong's mood is not quite right, 'there is nothing to say along the way, that is, the head is bored, and the three horses take turns, after all, they have been running, and they have to stop to eat and drink, and on weekdays, Wang Tong himself knows when to control when to stop, and now he wants Sun Xin, Li Tao and others to remind him.

However, after reminding him, Wang Tong didn't say anything, just dismounted, changed the blankets and saddle bridles on the horses, and gave them food and water.

The official road from Jingshi to Tianjin Wei is constantly driven by cars and horses, and people come and go, and since Tianjin Wei is prosperous, even this official road has also prospered.

Although there is a convenient transportation between Tongzhou and Tianjin Wei, but now the ships have died of freight, and no one has to make a small amount of money for passenger transportation, not to mention that the waterway is not faster than the land route after all, and it is always beneficial to play back and forth between Beijing and Tianjin Wei.

There were many people, cars and horses, Wang Tong and others walked in the robes of Jinyiwei, and the people on the road saw it, and they thought that they were riding out of Beijing on an errand, and they were all dodging early, but it made him go smoothly.

They are conspicuous, and in the hustle and bustle of the official road, it is difficult for anyone to detect them even if there are people who follow them.

"This group of people's mounts is a good foot, and I'm afraid that the Rans can't keep up like this, and the mounts can't bear it." Behind Wang Tong and the others, there were also more than 20 men walking in groups on horseback, and a few people looked at the back of Wang Tong's team and scolded hatefully.

Zhang Quan is no longer dressed as a servant of a wealthy family, looking at the same as a foot merchant 'wearing a straw hat with a wide brim, wearing a green robe and a short placket' riding on a horse, hearing the people around him complain 'He glanced at it coldly' Zhang Quan is quite prestigious among these people ' He looked over' The gang immediately did not dare to speak.

"No matter how fast you run, 'they're going to find an inn to rest tonight', just follow up."

And all the people agreed, and hurried to follow.

It is precisely because of this person that people come and go, 'Zhang Quan's team has not appeared', there is another team of people on the official road, and it seems that they have a purpose.

…………

When it gets dark, the people on the official road are becoming scarce, and the travelers of this era can find inns or places for people to stay at night, because the distance between the inns on the road and the places where they stay is the distance that people walk for a day.

Wang Tong and the others walked for a while, "because of the post station set up by Tianjin Wei on this official road" in preparation for the high galloping of horses.

After it was completely dark, Wang Tong and the others arrived at the foothold tonight, and the name of the inn was known to be their own business at a glance, and it said "Sanjiang Inn".

The inns on this road are all raising horses, "for messengers to change horses", but hanging the inn's brand, "naturally do this business, Sanjiang Commercial Bank to these inns money and grain, pay for the cost of raising horses and the wages of the innkeeper's salary", the inn's income is owned by the principal.

Therefore, the income from running this inn is quite good, "I will make a steady profit without losing money, I can also eat and dress if I want to be idle, and I have a way to make money".

At the door of the inn, as usual, there were men there to watch, "It is one thing to attract guests and welcome guests," but also to see if there are any messengers from their own country, and if they do, they must shout and prepare in advance.

Seeing Wang Tong and the others coming, the guest suppressor at the door looked up with a smile on his face, and before he could say hello, Li Tao had already lost something.

The man hurriedly caught the 'look at it by the light of the lantern at the door', and after being stunned, he hurriedly walked forward and gave a big salute, and then turned around and shouted: "Shopkeeper, there is a distinguished guest at home." ’’

Wang Tong and the others all turned over and dismounted, and the man came up and said attentively: "A few people went first to ask for the horses, and the luggage was taken care of by the small ones." ’’

Wang Tong and the others took out their personal things, strode into the inn, and only when they entered the door did they see the shopkeeper limping up.

In the common impression, "this shopkeeper is middle-aged", and he is sophisticated, but he is in his early twenties, and Wang Tong was also stunned when he saw it, because this shopkeeper is very familiar.

After seeing Wang Tong, the shopkeeper's footsteps stopped, and then he knelt directly on the ground, kowtowed, and said: "My subordinates knock to see Lord Wang!" ’’

The self-proclaimed subordinate 'This must be someone who served in the Jinyi Guard or the Huwei Army, Wang Tong also remembered' and said, "You are the ...... of the fifth battalion."

"The small one is Liu Saburo, I didn't expect to see the adults here, 'Adults sit down quickly, and the small ones will make ...... for you,''

Wang Tong and the others were all seated, "although Liu Saburo is in his early twenties", but he is a little more sophisticated and sophisticated than the ordinary Huwei battalion soldiers, after he stood up, he shouted at the guys to make tea, and came to ask Wang Tong if he had dinner.

After a day of walking on the road, 'everyone was a little tired' where Wang Tong sat and said: "Simply get some food, that is, 'Liu Sanlang, how did you come here', after being injured, 'you can take the silver at home', why did you come here again to run errands?" ’’

Liu Saburo poured water for everyone' while saying with a smile: "The villain is not blessed" The second time he ate a light arrow when he went out of the jam with the adult, he returned to Miyun before he had time to heal the injury, and he had this problem on his leg, and there was no way to follow the adult, although the small one could get military pay until he was old and idle for a lifetime, but there was no one in the villain's family who wanted to continue to work for the adult, but it happened that the Sanjiang Commercial Bank recruited a credit person to operate the post station, and the small one signed up. ’’

Wang Tong nodded, "There is something to do, the spirit of the person has a sustenance, and the soldiers commit suicide and come down from the field" are often overwhelmed, and it is easy to get bored and have problems' This Liu Saburo thought about it himself, saying that it was not blessed, but it was blessed.

"If you need anything, just say hello to Tianjin Wei, 'The key to your post station is to ensure that the horses are strong' to change horses in time, 'do this well', is to do your duty.'" ’

Seeing that his subordinate soldiers were injured and well settled, Wang Tong was also very relieved in his heart, and after a few words of advice, he responded.

After a while, the food also came up, and the steaming cakes and salted fish and pickles could only be purchased in a hurry, and Liu Saburo said with a full mouth, "Wang Tong and the others ran around for a day, and the stomach was hungry" and the food was sweet.

After eating, Liu Saburo led Wang Tong and others to the back to rest, some of the inns in Jingshi were still two-storey, and then there were separate courtyards for rich and noble guests to rest, and there were several courtyards that relied on the official road to open up "for people to rest and sleep", and they didn't pay much attention to it.

Liu Saburo was serving diligently, and hot water was called to let Wang Tong and others wash their faces and feet, and they simply cleaned up, but before going to bed, he put a stool in the house outside the door, and then closed the door, blew out the lights, and lay down to sleep.

Before going to bed, I vaguely heard someone at the counter in front of me answering: "Shopkeeper!!" There is no room 'our brother wants to stay in the hotel. ’’

"Lao Jiu, you guys are really able to toss, you have to rush to the night road, 'broke a horse and then remembered to live in the hotel', all the money earned from this business was ruined by you!!' ’

“…… A few guest officers whispered, "There are guests inside who have already fallen asleep, don't wake up......''

In addition to the noise ahead, there was also the neighing of horses from the stables, and the inn was very quiet, and Wang Tong was also tired, and he lay down for a while, and fell asleep.

It's quiet all around, and it's getting deeper and deeper.

"Bang" ' There was a muffled sound 'The stool outside the door was touched' Hearing a low boat cry of pain 'Wang Tong woke up suddenly, this is the method that Tan General taught him, put the family in a place that is not often placed, and it may be very big if it is not for his own people to run into it at night.

'What someone!!' ’

There was a shout outside, 'Wang Tong, who had taken out the weapon, was stunned for a moment', this drink net asked if it was not his own subordinates, and it was not a person in the inn, 'What's going on?'

The sound of swords colliding also sounded, "someone hit the door of the house vigorously", the latch inside the door was very thin, and it was broken after a few clicks, "someone rushed in from outside, and it was so dark that I couldn't see anything clearly", and the person who rushed in was just about to step inward, when he heard a "click" in the darkness.
