Liu Han was very satisfied with the decision of this brotherhood master, this guy seemed to be similar to the rumors of the outside world, cautious and decisive, when he stayed, he would stay, and when he abandoned, he would abandon it, he was very cautious, no wonder the imperial court had been looking for him for many years.

But he still didn't move, he still trained in the barracks, and he still went to patrol the town with the team every three or five days, and went out to "investigate" at night, which seemed to be very active.

After the widow Chu left, several more families in the town suddenly disappeared, and no one knew where they went, adding a bit of depression to the town.

Liu Han took the time to go to Yuanguan and met with Chang Chan, the general guarding the pass, and the logistics supply of Yuan Yingkou was provided by Yuanguan, and Liu Han had to go over to meet to ensure that the logistics were unimpeded.

Chang Chan is a young general in his thirties, he looks very elegant, he is one level higher than Liu Han, the official worships the school captain, according to the news that Liu Han heard, he was born in Qingzhou, his cultivation is still relatively high, there are nine grades of samurai, but no matter how you look at it, you can't see it, the whole person is as white as a Qiu Gelu.

In this era, the grain is sent from the rear, except for wartime, the grain and straw of other garrisons are rarely punctual, and some generals even take out the grain and straw to resell, of course, it will not be short of your grain.

The reason for this is very simple, according to the roster, Liu Han should have 500 people, and the boss also allocated grain and straw according to 500 people, but the generals below knew the truth, so they simply deducted the extra part and resold it, and the officers who received the grain below had no choice but to swallow their anger.

Liu Han gave a big gift, and also drank wine with Chang Chan, pushing the cup to change the lamp, Chang Chan guaranteed that the grain was distributed "truthfully", never half a point, both sides were happy, and Liu Han returned satisfied.

After staying for another half a month, seeing that the weather had entered early autumn, the palace was obviously in a hurry, and two consecutive orders fell from the sky, asking him to go south to Yangzhou as soon as possible, and not to delay in Yuanyingkou anymore, Liu Han read the instructions and understood in his heart that the palace had already placed people in his troops.

The next day, Liu Han summoned all the officers above the rank of chief to the Chinese army, that is, the vestibule of his residence, and passed the military orders he received to everyone.

"The chief ordered me and Li Yan to go to Qingzhou on business, here before I come back, Cheng Jia is in charge, and Peng Yu is still in charge of the assassination prison, do you know?"

Everyone was surprised, but when they saw the seal on it, it was indeed the order of Zhonghou Yang Hui, and the Chinese army fell silent for a while, and after half a sound, Cheng Jia frowned and asked: "My lord, what is this going to do? We have been here for less than two months, and you will be transferred? This, what is this!"

"That's it, what are you going to do from above! Damn! Yang Hui, bastard, what's in his head! Shit!" Someone scolded angrily, this training has just been on the right track, the morale of the soldiers is high, and everyone is taking the initiative to practice, which is extremely rare.

But at this time, the imperial court transferred Liu Han away, and they were naturally very dissatisfied.

Seeing that everyone was about to scold, Liu Han hurriedly spoke, hummed, and looked at everyone sternly: "Let me go on a business trip, it's not that I will transfer us away, what nonsense!"

After a pause, he glanced at everyone, and then spoke slowly: "After I leave, Cheng Jia, you must follow the training plan, strengthen training, be sure to let every soldier be familiar with the battle formation, familiar with the changes in the battle formation, to achieve the goal of drawing three or five people to form a small battle formation, everyone must be proficient in the use of strong crossbows and arrows, everyone must master long knives, spears and shields, if possible, everyone must learn to ride horses." ”

"Yes!" Cheng Jia replied helplessly.

"Whether I'm here or not, the training can't be stopped for a moment, military discipline must be strict, Peng Yu, you are an assassin, the problem of military discipline, I will leave it to you, when I come back, if you find that military discipline is lax, only you ask!"

"Please rest assured, my lordship will definitely not live up to the trust of my lord!" Peng Yu replied loudly in a loud voice.

"Okay, let's go out, big guys, Li Yan stays. Liu Han commanded.

When Li Yan saw the order, he was very surprised at first, but when he calmed down, doubts slowly rose in his heart, because the order was very vague, saying that he was going to Qingzhou on business, but he didn't stipulate when he would go to Qingzhou......

In an instant, a series of questions flashed through his heart, so during the entire meeting, he didn't say a word, just frowned.

Liu Han walked up to him, looked at him and asked, "What's the matter?"

"My lord, this military order....?" asked Li Yan tentatively.

Liu Han smiled and tore up the order, Li Yan was stunned: "My lord!"

"This order is for them to see. Liu Han said and took out another order and put it in front of Li Yan, Li Yan picked it up and looked at it, the order above was to let Liu Han and Li Yan go to Yangzhou to investigate.

"This ....." Li Yan was also puzzled, and he had more doubts in his heart.

Liu Han tore the order again, Li Yan didn't stop it now, and the suspicion of looking at him became even thicker.

"This task was sent by the palace, and the palace asked me to go by name, but I couldn't complete this task alone, so I recommended you to the above. Liu Han explained.

"My lord, what kind of task is this?" Li Yan asked very curiously and suspiciously.

"The order is also very vague, mainly because it is confidential. Liu Han sat down next to him: "Let's go to Yangzhou this time, and the task is to secretly investigate the hundred workshops." ”

"Hundred Workshops?" Li Yan was still puzzled: "We are a forbidden army, how can we go to check the Hundred Workshops? , why don't you let the internal guard check it?"

Liu Han smiled bitterly and sighed: "I'm tired of being famous, but I also thought about it, and it is estimated that there was something wrong with the internal guard, so we were allowed to go." ”

Li Yan was still suspicious, and Liu Han patted him on the shoulder: "In the eyes of the nobles in the palace, we are nothing, nothing." ”

"What's wrong with this Hundred Workshops?" asked Li Yan in confusion, the Hundred Workshops were very mysterious in the rivers and lakes, but he had heard of them, but he had never participated in their auctions.

"Who knows," Liu Han said bitterly: "Just let me check their bottom, hehe, I guess the palace has already checked, but I haven't found out, so let our brothers make a move, hey, have you participated in their auction?"

Li Yan shook his head: "No, I've heard that the Gongzi family also has some business in the imperial capital, but they have never been invited." ”

"I participated, and I also opened a salt number with them in Yangzhou, alas, perhaps, this is the reason why the palace took a fancy to me, brother, let's go to Yangzhou for a trip," Liu Han got up and said: "I heard that this Yangzhou is ten miles of fireworks, and the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River is wireless, so we should go to the autumn tour." ”

"Salt!" Li Yan was a little surprised, and looked up at him: "Since that's the case, what else is there to investigate?"

Liu Han shook his head: "There is a certain reason for the palace to suspect them, do you know, I have seen the shopkeeper of the Hundred Workshops, this shopkeeper's surname is Zhang, and he wears a mask on his face all the year round, I once asked him to take off the mask, but I still can't be sure that the face I saw is his true face." ”

Li Yan was a little stupid, he was confused and understood, and couldn't help but be surprised, Liu Han took out another piece of paper and put it in front of him: "This is the body guide prepared for you, you take a look first, and then go back and prepare, tomorrow, we will set off." ”

Li Yan picked it up and looked at it, and it was written on it that it was a person from Anyi, Hedong, called Mengshan.

"Monsan. Li Yan smiled: "My lord, if we go to Yangzhou, my accent can be mixed, your accent is not Hedong accent." ”

Liu Han smiled and took out his body and handed it to him, it was written on it about Liu Mo, a Guzang person, but the time was half a year ago.

"Let's not be a land. ”

"When we go out, let's go together, and before we get to Gucheng, we will go separately and meet at Yangzhou Defu Building. Liu Han said, Li Yan's heart became more and more solemn, he knew that these hundred workshops were mysterious and mysterious, but his strength was really not bad, which was much more risky than training at home.

"Brother Li, let's go to Jiangnan this time, the risk is not small, the strength of the hundred workshops is not bad, check them," Liu Han sighed: "No matter how strong the internal guards are, they haven't found out, let us go, alas." ”

"I'm afraid it's not just that I haven't found out, I'm afraid that a lot of people have died. Li Yan also calmed down and smiled easily.

"Well, your judgment makes sense," Liu Han nodded yes, and Li Yan asked in wonder, "Is there any information provided above?"

Liu Han shook his head, and Li Yan smiled bitterly: "Then how do we check?"

Liu Han sighed: "Let's take one step at a time, I guess there is probably no information in the palace, this hundred workshops seem to be smart, but in fact, alas, I'm afraid it is also a little smart, if you want to change me, I will ** send the news to the palace to eliminate the suspicion in the palace." ”

Li Yan nodded thoughtfully: "That's right, if you cover it too tightly, it will inevitably become a flaw." ”

"Okay, go back early, you still have a lot of things, you have to explain what you should explain, let's go, the troops can't be messed up." ”

Li Yan agreed to leave, Liu Han looked at his back and couldn't help flashing a sneer, Lao Huang's idea was really wonderful, if he didn't misjudge, Li Yan was that person's subordinate, and the Hundred Workshops were also that guy's money-making tools, as for whether Li Yan knew the Hundred Workshops, it didn't matter, even if he wouldn't let Li Yan know.

The Hundred Workshops were too important to that person, more important than Hanhai Trading Company to him.

The palace's requirements are the same as his purpose, and with the support of the palace, he is confident that he will bring out the old bottom of the hundred workshops.

Peng Yu came in and saw him standing in front of the window, without disturbing him, quietly standing on the side.

"This time I went out for a longer time, and it is very dangerous to go out this time, you stay, watch the troops, you have to remember, no matter how much you are wronged, you must persevere, you must use your brains more, in addition, the cultivation must be strengthened, I hope that when you come back, you have entered the samurai realm. ”

"Your Excellency. Peng Yu was in a very complicated mood, both shocked, moved, and a little confused, and didn't know how to express it.

"Remember, don't clash openly with Cheng Jia, holding is victory. ”

"My lord, let me go with you. Peng Yu asked a little excitedly, Liu Han shook his head lightly: "Your cultivation is too low, it is not suitable to go to the rivers and lakes, besides, this operation is very dangerous, even if I can protect myself, it is good, I really can't be distracted to take care of you, besides, in the army, I trust you the most, you stay, watch the army for me." ”

Peng Yu nodded heavily: "Don't worry, my lord, when you come back, I will definitely hand over the troops to you completely." ”

Liu Han nodded, Peng Yu didn't ask again, his mood was still excited, Liu Han took out two bottles of pills and handed them to him, the last bottle can last for about three months, plus these two bottles can last for half a year, this pill is not a jelly bean, you can eat it if you want, you can only take it once every fifteen days.

The next day, Liu Han and Li Yan rode out of the camp under the watchful eyes of the soldiers of the whole battalion, and the two drove through the town towards Gucheng.

In front of Gucheng, the two broke up, before they broke up, Liu Han told Li Yan again, don't make trouble on the road, after arriving in Yangzhou, the two of them should act separately, he is in the light, Li Yan is in the dark, and it is absolutely forbidden to expose his identity until he has to.

Li Yan nodded in agreement, and the two of them entered Gucheng one after the other.

Gucheng is not big, the whole county is just one street, Li Yan pretended to be a man who walked the rivers and lakes, and found an inn to live in at random, while Liu Han pretended to be an officer, bought some dry food in the city at will and hurried out of the city, running south along the post road. 2k reading web
