The soldiers of Tiangu Castle who were secretly watching around were only incredible to see the scene in front of them.

In the Northwest Army, few people don’t know about Gan Yujiao, and many people know that Gan Yujiao has been with Gan Hou since she was in her teens, and the relationship between brothers and sisters is extremely deep.

Moreover, many people know that Gan Yujiao's kung fu is actually taught by Gan Hou.

Gan Hou's martial arts may not be the first among the tens of thousands of generals in the northwest, but he was invincible on the battlefield, and his swordsmanship was not as good as the ones. In addition to learning martial arts, he was more trained in bloody battles after another. Such swordsmanship is both practical and terrifying.

Gan Yujiao has always followed her brother in the army. Gan Hou naturally taught her sister all the money and passed on all the experience of sword skills she had tempered over the years to Gan Yujiao. Gan Yujiao does have excellent talent and high understanding in sword skills. Moreover, she never lacks any opponents to train in the army.

When an ordinary girl was still learning about the girl with an embroidery needle at home, Gan Yujiao was holding a sword and a gun, fighting with the soldiers on the sand in the military camp. It was precisely because of this that she had trained her temperament like a man.

Over the years, Gan Yujiao has also followed her brother to the battlefield, and there are definitely many enemies who died under her knife.

Although some people deliberately give in to Gan Yujiao for the sake of Gan Hou’s face, no one can deny that Gan Yujiao is definitely a good player in using swords.

This time when I saw Chu Huan and Gan Yujiao comparing swords, many soldiers who didn't know Chu Huan felt strange. Chu Huan looked like a brocade robe and jade belt, like a young man. Many people thought he would definitely suffer a great loss under Gan Yujiao's sword.

But this result made many people dumbfounded.

It was obvious that Gan Yucai had the upper hand and had a sharp attack. Chu Huan seemed to have only the ability to resist and dodge in a mess. When he fell, almost all the soldiers of Tiangu Castle thought that the outcome had been decided.

But no one expected that the result was a 180-degree turn. When Chu Huan fell to the ground and turned over to the uniform and took off the scimitar in Gan Yujiao's hand, it happened in an instant, and many people did not see clearly what was going on.

Gan Yujiao was also surprised at this time. She obviously couldn't figure out why she was so bizarrely defeated by Chu Huan.

If you are facing a head-on battle, your skills are not as good as others and you are defeated by Chu Huan, Gan Yujiao naturally has nothing to say, but his offensive obviously has the upper hand. It only changes in a moment. Not only did he fall down, but he also took away the knife by Chu Huan. This made Gan Yujiao unacceptable for a moment. He stood up from the ground and said angrily: "You... you are using fraud!"

"Make a cheat?" Chu Huan said in surprise: "Why did the girl say this?"

"You...!" Gan Yujiao's cheeks were a little red, but she didn't know how to talk about it. The battle training in the army was a battle on the battlefield, and it was not a good man from the martial arts world. Trying to defeat the other side was the ultimate goal of military training. Gan Yujiao came from the army, and this concept was naturally very deep. Although she felt that she had lost unjustly, Chu Huan seemed to be playing with her methods, but she really wanted her to tell the truth, but for a moment she didn't know how to say it.

Chu Huan returned to the knife and pinched the blade, handed the handle to Gan Yujiao, and said with a smile: "Miss Yujiao, I won by chance. We just said that you will certainly not regret it!"

Gan Yujiao took the knife, hated and annoyed, "We...we will compete again..."

"No!" Before she could finish her words, Chu Huan shook her head and said, "I have won. I may not be the girl's opponent. I won by chance. It seems that God asked me to resolve the misunderstanding between the girl and Shui Lan..."

"No, you...!"

Gan Hou finally came forward, coughed twice, and said, "Yujiao, I am willing to accept the loss of the bet, and Lord Chu has indeed won you, so of course we cannot break our promise."

"Master Chu?" Gan Yujiao was stunned and said strangely: "What is Madam Chu?"

Chang Huan knew that it was difficult to reveal Chu Huan's identity before, but now Chu Huan wins, it's okay, so he explained: "Miss Yujiao, this is Lord Chu, the governor of Xiguan Road!"

"Chu Huan..." Gan Yujiao opened her eyes wide and said in a lost voice: "You... are you Chu Huan?"

Chu Huan bowed and smiled, "It's Chu Huan!"

Gan Yujiao looked at Chu Huan blankly, and soon, her eyebrows locked up and said angrily: "You...you liar..."

"Why did the girl say this?"

"You...you lied to me and said, you are a businessman..." Gan Yu was furious, "Why did you lied to me?"

Chu Huan sighed: "Miss, I'm wrong. I'm indeed here as a businessman. I want to discuss some business with General Gan...!"

"Bastard..." Gan Yujiao's eyes were about to burst into flames, "You big liar, you...!"

"Rareless!" Gan Hou shouted in a deep voice: "Yujiao, how could you be so rude to Lord Chu... and you still don't apologize to Lord Chu!"

"You are also a liar!" Gan Yujiao said angrily: "You join forces to lie to me... Chu Huan, you are a villain!"

Chu Huan shook his head and sighed, "The girl made a big fuss in Tiangu Castle before, and then sneaked back secretly. Isn't she lying to others? You lied to everyone, so what do you say?"

"I...!" Gan Yujiao was speechless for a moment, looking at Chu Huan hatefully, then looked at Gan Hou again, and finally looked at Shui Lan, gritting her teeth, and finally stomped her feet, "Chu Huan, you... remember it for me, I...!" She stomped her feet again, turned around and left without looking back, "House Gan, I will no longer care about your affairs, I see how you explain to your sister-in-law!"

She was angry and annoyed, twisted her waist and ran out of Xu Yuan for a moment.

Gan Hou ordered: "Chang Huan, take people to follow you, and protect her secretly in the middle of the night."

Chang Huan bowed and took a few people to chase after him.

"Mr. Chu, I don't know what to say about today's affairs." Mr. Gan bowed to Chu Huan and said, "As soon as you, Mr. Chu, you will solve all the problems. You are really the savior of Mr. Gan and the savior of the entire Northwest Army."

Chu Huan also bowed and smiled and said, "General Gan is so serious." Then, "General Gan, it's too late. You go and comfort Miss Shuilan first. You should make a clear explanation to the general about what you should say."

Gan Hou said: "Mr. Chu was exhausted all the way, and it was time to rest early." He sent someone to lead Chu Huan to rest.

Chu Huan returned to his house, Qi Hong had already come over, and when he saw Chu Huan safe and sound, he was relieved that he was the personal guard beside Chu Huan, so Chu Huan did not hide some things. He also knew that Chu Huan was here, in addition to sending salt, he was also to persuade Mr. Gan to send troops out to protect the trade ground.

"Horse Gan knew the key to this matter." Chu Huan chuckled: "I have promised him that he would provide the Northwest Army with enough salt for them to eat. In addition, the reopened tariffs will be handed over to the Northwest Army within three years."

"Three years of tariffs?" Qi Hong was a little surprised: "Sir, if trade develops, it will not be a small amount."

"Will the Northwest Army be at ease?" Chu Huan said softly: "Salt and tariffs are the two biggest benefits provided by Xiguan to Ganhou. If the Northwest Army wants to obtain these two benefits, it must first ensure that Xiguan Road itself is safe and sound. If there is any accident in Xiguan, salt will naturally not be provided. The most important thing is that merchants will never be in the mood to go out for trade. Whether it is salt or tariffs, if the Northwest Army wants to obtain it, they must be in peace and stability in Xiguan Road itself."

Qi Hong understood and smiled and said, "Sir, these two gifts were actually tied together the Northwest Army and Xiguan Road?"

"It's not impossible to say this." Chu Huan smiled and said, "At least, Gan Hou is very clear about the benefits and interests. We have also seen that although there are tens of thousands of troops, they are in a difficult situation and lack food and clothing. In this case, the Thirty-Six Fortresses are still in order. This governor really admires General Gan. But I also thought that if the situation continues to develop like this, Gan Hou will be able to be able to do so sooner or later. So providing support to them is to ensure the safety of our Xiguan itself."

"What the Lord said is." Qi Hong nodded and said, "If a mutiny occurs, it will inevitably spread rapidly, and then Gan Hou will be unable to control it. These Northwest Army soldiers are all good at fighting. Once chaos starts, the first thing to be affected is our Xiguan Road...!"

"That's true, so I'll give salt and tariffs, just waiting for Gan Hou to give two powerful weapons." Chu Huan touched his chin and said, "With these two powerful weapons in hand, the Northwest Army will not rebel. Gan Hou is very clear about this. He knows more clearly that to maintain these two powerful weapons, we must first maintain the stability of Xiguan, so...!" A smiled slightly, "The future tariffs may be really a considerable amount, but it is worth it to ensure the stability of the Northwest Army and tie them to Xiguan together."

Qi Hong nodded slightly, looked around, and lowered his voice: "Sir, we have suspected that Zhu Lingyue might have had contact with Gan Hou before. If the price given by Zhu Lingyue is higher, then...!"

"I was prepared for this." Chu Huan nodded and said, "Zhu Lingyue was eyeing me. If he could win over the Northwest Army, the front and back attacks would pose a great threat to me. Of course, he would not let me go. Even if the Northwest Army would not help him, as long as the Northwest Army did not walk with us, Zhu Lingyue would be willing to pay the price." Then he smiled coldly, "It's a pity that Tianshan Mountains must pass through my Xiguan territory from Yanmen. I have ordered to add checkpoints along the way and carefully checked. As long as it is a convoy of Tianshan, it is not allowed to come to the north. At least in terms of material supply, Zhu Lingyue's road to win over Ganhou has been blocked by me..."

Qi Hong laughed and said, "In this way, the Northwest Army can only get our support. If Zhu Lingyue wants to win over, it won't be possible. Gan Hou is a smart man. Even if Zhu Lingyue sends people to lobby, we will give real benefits. Which one is more important, Gan Hou will definitely be able to tell the difference." Suddenly, he thought of something and frowned slightly: "Sir, what if... Zhu Lingyue provides silver? Can we block the goods and block the silver notes?"

"If the silver notes are in your hands, they cannot be exchanged for silver and become goods, then they are a pile of waste paper." Chu Huan said calmly: "If Gan Hou really accepts Zhu Lingyue's silver, he needs to use these silver to enter the pass to purchase goods. The goods are transported from the pass to Yanmen. Our Xiguan is the only way to go..." He stared at Qi Hong, "My Minmen is pinned to Xiguan's hands. Can't Gan Hou think of this because he is so smart? As long as he thinks of this, he should know who is a truly reliable friend."
