The whole battle actually ended in less than half an hour, and the Wu'an army only dispatched 250 cavalry, killing and wounding nearly 1,000 robbers, and fled one after another, leaving corpses all over the gallop and both sides. And the soldiers of the Wu'an Army chased and killed for a while, and then stopped.

However, after this battle, the sky had already darkened, and the convoy of the plateau naturally could not move forward, so the plateau immediately ordered to camp in the same place and rest here for the night. At the same time, the soldiers were ordered to clean up the battlefield, clean up the dead bodies, capture prisoners, and count the losses and results.

At this time, Lin Wenqing and the others got down from the carriage, although the robbers did not rush to the front of the convoy at all, but the master and servant and others were still a little frightened at this time, and Yun Na stayed in the Hun camp, and she was not afraid, and after getting off the car, she was still looking around.

Gao Yuan also came to Lin Wenqing and said, "Mrs. Wenqing, I didn't scare you." ”

Lin Wenqing also calmed down his feelings a little, and said, "Please rest assured, Wenqing is fine." ”

Gao Yuan nodded, also a little apologetic, and said: "This trip to Qi is really embarrassing for Mrs. Wenqing." ”

Lin Wenqing smiled slightly and said, "What the adults said, isn't this nothing?" And if it weren't for the adults, this trip would be really dangerous. ”

At this time, Ling Feng came to the side of the plateau and said, "My lord, come and take a look." ”

Lin Wenqing saw it and immediately said, "If the adult has something, Wenqing will not bother the adult." With that, he turned back to the car.

Gao Yuan then walked away with Ling Feng, and as he walked, Gao Yuan asked, "How about our casualties." ”

Ling Feng said: "A total of 327 robbers have been killed, 19 have been captured, none of our brothers have been killed, only about 20 people have been injured, and five of them have been seriously injured, and Xiao Na has already gone to treat them." ”

Gao Yuan nodded, although the scale of this battle was not large, the results were still very good.

Ling Feng said again: "But they are not ordinary robbers. ”

As he spoke, the two came to the edge of the convoy, and by the light of more than a dozen torches that had been lit, they saw seven or eight corpses lined up on the ground, and their outer clothes were cut, revealing the armor they were wearing closely. Gao Yuan said: "Do all the people have armor?" ”

Ling Feng nodded and said, "All the robbers who were killed were wearing armor. And this sword. As he spoke, he handed a bronze sword to Takahara.

Gao Yuan took a look at the sword, and saw that there was an obvious grinding mark on the hilt. Among the nations, the weapons used by the armies were all recorded, and the time when the weapons were cast, and the names of the craftsmen who cast them. And the grinding marks on this sword are obviously erased from the payment. Although this is done to cover up, it cannot be used as evidence in court. However, this evidence can conclude that the robbers were in fact disguised by the regular army.

Gao Yuan said again: "Did you try the prisoners, what did they say?" ”

Ling Feng said: "It's being interrogated." ”

As he was talking, he saw a soldier come over and say, "My lord, the director of that caravan wants to see your lordship." ”

Gao Yuan nodded and said, "Please ask him to come at this time." ”

After the soldier went, he brought two people in a short time, about thirty-five to forty years old, and they already knew from the soldier's mouth that Gao Yuan was the identity of the envoy of the county, so he gave Gao Yuan a deep salute and said, "In Xia Hongxiu, Tian Sixiang, I have seen the envoy. ”

Now the appearance of the plateau is through their own makeup, in fact, makeup and disappearance, is one of the necessary skills for every agent, although there is no easy furniture in this era, but also can make some changes to their appearance under the existing conditions. Gao Yuan dyed his face a little red, glued his beard again, added some swallow jaws to his ears, and thickened his eyebrows a little, so that it seemed that his age had increased by at least six or seven years, and if he was not familiar with the plateau, he would not recognize it at all.

Gao Yuan also returned the salute and said, "Two gentlemen, there is no need to be polite. ”

Hong Xiu said: "This time, Lord Domeng defeated this group of bandits, otherwise the caravan below would be in danger." ”

Gao Yuan said: "Mr. Hong, they are not robbers, but they are disguised by the army. ”

Hong Xiu's face changed, and he said, "It was changed by the army?" ”

Gao Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Hong, please take a look." As he spoke, he pointed to the corpses lying on the ground, and showed the bronze swords to Hongxiu. "Only the army would have such armor, and although the inscription on the sword was erased, it was apparently to hide his identity. ”

Hong Xiu's face changed several times, and he was about to say something more, when Ling Feng came to the front of Gao Yuan again and said, "My lord, they have already confessed, they are the army under Huang Jingyuan, Doctor Rao'an, and they were originally going to ambush Canghaijun's caravan, but our brothers who were exploring the path in front found their ambush, so they had to kill them." ”

Qi is one of the few countries in this era that did not have a county system, in addition to the capital Linzi, there are also Gaotang, Pinglu, Jimo, Jucheng four capitals, and set up a doctor to govern. In addition to the five capitals, in other important cities, there are also doctors to govern, and the officials are equivalent to the upper doctors in the court. In addition, all the cities with doctors are stationed in the standing post, so the doctors of each city manage the military, government, and financial power of each city, and their status and power are extremely great. Rao'an is a large city on the northwest border of Qi State, and it is also an important town to guard against Yan State. Huang Jingyuan, the doctor stationed in Rao'an, was naturally an important minister of the Qi State, and he also managed tens of thousands of troops. Could it be that these robbers are his men?

Gao Yuan nodded and looked at Hongxiu and Tian Simong.

And the faces of the two were also very embarrassed, Hongxiu saluted Gao Yuan again, and said: "Lord Envoy, I really don't hide it, I am the disciple of Canghai Jun below." He pointed behind him and said, "What you are bringing with you is Canghai Jun's caravan." ”

In fact, Gao Yuan had already guessed that it was not himself who this gang of robbers wanted to rob, but this caravan, but by mistake, and he actually blocked the gun instead of this caravan. Therefore, Gao Yuan said: "Do Canghai Jun and Dr. Rao An have any personal enmity?" Send an army disguised as a robber against you. ”

Hongxiu smiled bitterly, looked at Tian Simong, and said: "The caravan led by Xia is going to Linzi, and the things brought are a batch of seaside specialties sold by Canghaijun to An Pingjun. ”

Gao Yuan said with a smile: "Although I am lonely and unheard of in Dai County, I have also heard of An Pingjun and Canghai Jun, is it difficult that An Pingjun and Dr. Rao An have a personal vendetta?" ”

Tian Simung shook his head and said: "My lord has heard of An Pingjun and Canghai Jun, so it's easy to say, it's not that An Pingjun and Dr. Rao An have a personal vendetta, and Dr. Rao An is still the henchman of the Prime Minister Hou Sheng, Hou Sheng and An Pingjun have always been at odds, so this time it must be instructed by Hou Sheng to let Dr. Rao An send an army to disguise himself as a robber and attack this caravan, if it is not for the envoy, this time it will be really dangerous." ”

Gao Yuan nodded, this is a little clear, it turns out that there is such a complicated relationship here.

At this time, Tian Simon said again: "But this time, although they were repelled by the adults, they will attack the caravan under at any time, and please ask the envoy to help the caravan under and arrive in Linzi safely." After a pause, he said: "The envoy has helped us this time, and An Pingjun and Canghaijun will definitely be grateful to your lordship." ”

After listening to Tian Simong's words, Gao Yuan's mind immediately began to turn rapidly, and it was nothing to help them, because Anping Jun Tian Kezang and Canghai Jun both advocated participating in the joint struggle against Qin, and the prime minister of the country was to make friends with the Qin State for the Lord, so from the perspective of his own interests, of course, he should help Tian Sichang, so that he could also sell Tian Kezhang and Canghai Jun a favor, but although Tian Sixiang explained to himself the complicated relationship here, there were still some ominous words. The batch of goods he brought would never be any seafood, if it was just seafood, then there was no need for Hou Sheng to send someone to disguise himself as a robber to rob them, because robbing this batch of seafood would at most disgust Tian Kezang and Canghaijun, and then it would have no effect. And Tian Kezang and Canghaijun are both first-class families in Qi State, and they are not bad for this batch of seafood. On the contrary, it is really not cost-effective to face the full revenge of Tian Kezhang and Canghai Jun. Therefore, there must be something in this batch of goods that interests Hou Sheng or Huang Jingyuan.

Seeing that Gao Yuan didn't reply, Tian Simung couldn't help but get nervous, and said: "Lord Envoy, although I am in Qi State, I also know a little about the general trend of the world, and now Daijun and Qin State are hostile to each other." ”

Gao Yuan nodded, it was not a secret that Daijun and Qin were enemies, so there was no need to hide it.

Tian Simung took a step closer and said in a low voice: "I don't hide it from the envoys, this time the envoys of all countries gathered in Qi, in addition to congratulating my king on his birthday, they also want to form a joint alliance to resist Qin again, and my masters An Ping Juncang and Haijun have always advocated joining forces to resist Qin, and they also plan to take this opportunity to unite the envoys of various countries to persuade our king to join forces with other countries to resist Qin." Is it so difficult that Daijun doesn't want to participate in this merger? ”

Gao Yuan said: "If you can really form a joint column, of course it is a good thing, I don't hide it from Mr., when I left Daijun, Wu Anjun told me that if we can form a joint column, of course we Daijun will participate." ”

Tian Simung said: "That's great, if the envoy hopes that this time the alliance can be achieved, then he should help to transport this batch of seafood to Linzi safely." This batch of seafood is important to An Pingjun, if the adults help this help, then An Pingjun will be grateful to the adults and to the Daijun. ”
