Originally, Fang Xiaowu originally got the news that the imperial court would send five thousand elite soldiers to escort the princess out of the customs this time, but when he set off, the situation changed slightly, and the number of people increased by three thousand, that is, eight thousand, which shows that the court is careful and does not dare to be careless at all.
Everyone was dressed in military uniforms, and Fang Xiaowu not only got a set of high-grade armor himself, but also helped Shirley get a pair of armor worn by a middle-grade woman.
After Shirley put on her armor, Fang Xiaowu's eyes kept shining, and he couldn't wait to let Shirley wear it all the time and not take it off.
It's no wonder that Shirley is already beautiful, and after putting on the armor, she has an extra heroic spirit, and any man will be amazed when he sees it.
Time flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye, three days have passed in a flash.
In the past three days, the road has been peaceful, and nothing unusual has happened.
At noon on the fourth day, the "Grand Commander", who was in charge of the escort mission, that is, the emperor's sixth prince, named Zhu Shan, gathered the four commanders and more than half of the deputy commanders together and planned to hold a meeting.
Fang Xiaowu is also among them.
Zhu Shan, forty-one years old, spent eight years in the army when he was a teenager, and is quite good at commanding troops, and his strength can be described as unfathomable.
Zhu Shan's escort of the imperial sister out of the customs this time knew that the stakes were very important and could not tolerate the slightest sloppiness, so he planned to reiterate the importance of this task again at the meeting, so as not to let some people know the importance.
"Everyone. Zhu Shan's eyes swept away, his eyes were sharp, his expression was serious, and he said: "This prince called you this time to reiterate some things that must be explained, I hope you will listen carefully, and don't take this prince's words as a deaf ear." ”
Everyone said, "How dare you, Your Highness Six, please speak." ”
Zhu Shandao: "The royal sister married in a foreign country this time, this prince, as the commander of the escort team, feels a great responsibility, and must not slack off, fortunately, the time of this escort mission is only about half a month, and after the Oolong Pass, the task will be completed." However, half a month is not long, but it is not short, and once there is a slight mistake, it is also a very serious matter......"
Speaking of this, Zhu Shan's voice paused, his eyes swept again, and his voice became quite cold: "This prince has just received information that there are rebels who want to rob and kill the imperial sister during this time!"
A deputy commander sneered: "Hmph, these anti-thieves really don't know whether they live or die, and they dare to be so bold." Sixth Highness, don't worry, as long as they dare to come, we will kill him without leaving a piece of armor. ”
Zhu Shan said: "Killing people is not the only solution, if you can catch one or two live mouths, and you are also the leader of the anti-thieves, then you can learn some things about the anti-thieves from their mouths, so as to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and leave no trouble." ”
The deputy commander hurriedly said: "Yes, yes." ”
"Therefore, during this period, I hope that you will be ready to respond at any time. If the thief does not appear, it is enough, once it appears, it is necessary to eliminate the future troubles with lightning speed, and if you can catch it, you must kill it on the spot, and you must not let the royal sister be frightened. ”
"Yes. ”
Everyone said in unison.
Next, Zhu Shan slightly explained some precautions, which allowed everyone to withdraw.
Fang Xiaowu was about to withdraw from the camp, but Zhu Shan called him down.
After the others left, they only heard Zhu Shan smile and said: "Fang Xiaowu, you are one of the thirty-three monks recruited by the imperial court this time, although you have not become a commander, you are also in an important position, and you cannot be ignored." I have a plan that needs someone to carry out, I wonder if you will accept it?"
Fang Xiaowu had already been advised by Li Datong, saying that all matters in the army must be under the orders of the commander, no matter what kind of task he has, he must do his best to carry it out, and in this case, Li Datong will help him get the dragon wood afterwards.
Therefore, Fang Xiaowu didn't dare to be careless, and said, "Your Highness Six, please command." ”
Zhu Shandao: "I want you to be a pioneer, lead a team of thirty people to explore the road first, if you encounter the thief to obstruct, first ask the details, if the thief refuses to answer, then go all out to take it, it is best to catch the mouth." Understood?"
Fang Xiaowu nodded and said, "My subordinates understand." ”
"It's good to understand, I've already selected thirty elite soldiers for you, and you'll see it when you go out, and set off after a stick of incense. ”
"Yes. ”
After Fang Xiaowu received the order, he withdrew from the camp.
Sure enough, just outside, there were already thirty people standing.
Fang Xiaowu's eyes swept away, but he was quite surprised.
These thirty people don't look very old, and their cultivation is not very high, but Fang Xiaowu felt that the aura emanating from these guys was even more terrifying than that of the dead.
He even had some suspicions that these thirty people were not people at all, but thirty guys who looked like people, but were monsters.
He didn't know why Zhu Shan gave himself such a major task, and he also wanted to let himself lead these thirty people not like people, ghosts like ghosts.
I wonder if I'll be able to stop them?
Unexpectedly, after he asked the names of these people, he was relieved to see that they were all respectful to him.
This is a team that is absolutely obedient to him, no matter how strong his skills are.
And at the thought that he could lead these people, Fang Xiaowu secretly laughed.
After a stick of incense, Fang Xiaowu took Shirley and set off with thirty of his subordinates.
Two days passed, and everything was uneventful.
The so-called anti-thieves did not appear at all, maybe there were, but because they saw that the escort team was too strong, they chose to retreat.
On the eighth day, the team of thirty people led by Fang Xiaowu had already come to the outskirts of Beijing, and after the suburbs of Beijing, it was the boundary of Yongzhou.
Among the nine major states of the Dawu Dynasty, Yongzhou ranked sixth, twice as big as Dengzhou, which ranked seventh.
There is a pass in Yongzhou, called Wulong Pass.
Before the founding of the Dawu Dynasty, Wulong Pass used to be an important town called Wulong Kingdom.
And the Oolong Kingdom, long before the establishment of the Dawu Dynasty, had already perished in the war.
To be honest, with Fang Xiaowu's cultivation and speed, after entering Yongzhou, if he wants to rush to Wulong Pass, it will only take one day.
But this time the situation is different.
First of all, no matter how fast the speed of the brigade is, no matter how fast it is, it is impossible to compare with him, and at most it can only move forward at a speed of four thousand miles a day.
Secondly, if you rush with all your might, it will inevitably consume a lot of physical strength, which no one can bear, and if you encounter a thief on the way, it will be worth the loss.
Finally, and most importantly.
This is a royal team equivalent to sending relatives, if it is because of the fear of the thieves making trouble halfway, they rush day and night, wouldn't it damage the majesty of the Dawu Dynasty?
In other words, if this method is feasible, the emperor can directly send the strongest master of Ouchi to secretly escort the princess out of the customs, and it can also ensure that the princess is sent abroad within three days, safe and secret, so why bother so much?
Therefore, this is a "game" in which the court knows that there will be anti-thieves on the road, but it also wants to take this opportunity to kill the arrogance of anti-thieves.
For this "game", the imperial court has long been fully prepared!
On the surface, there were only more than 8,000 escorts, but there were 90,000 people who could secretly accompany them, participate in various tasks, and stay in the place at any time to obey orders.
There are many cultivators in it, and they are as strong as a cloud.
Of course, this was only a unilateral preparation by the imperial court.
In case the thief is fierce, not one share, but multiple shares, and it is also strong, and who wins and who loses in the end, it is difficult to say.
