As the military supervisor of the Western Route Army, Wang Fan issued a military order. Xu Huai and Xu Wuji led more than a hundred elite troops to rush to Taiyuan with fast horses, so that a thousand Tangzhou soldiers could be kept forcing him.

Xu Huai was willing to do this, and he also expected that this northern expedition to Yan would suffer a severe blow, and the secret of his life experience would be leaked.

The Xiang army under the jurisdiction of the Tangzhou Military Control Commission was severely damaged twice during the Tongbai bandits' rebellion, especially the second time when the entire army was almost destroyed.

After Tangzhou, more than 2,000 soldiers were recruited from local soldiers in various counties to recruit new members of young, strong, brave and brave.

In addition to the complete armor and equipment, this Xiang army had stricter training, and also participated in the later bandit suppression operations. The combat effectiveness was much stronger than those Xiang army that were usually used as hard labor.

The battle power of these thousand Tangzhou soldiers and five hundred prisoners is more impressive, and more importantly, almost everyone in the world is greatly restricted by the region, with a sense of regional identity, or the local plot.

If there is a big defeat, Xu Huai will use a thousand Tangzhou soldiers as the basis to recruit fugitives. At the same time, the Tongbai Mountain gangs from Tangzhou will definitely play a role in twice the result with half the effort.

However, Xu Wuji, Xu Wukun, Su Laochang and others did not think so. They all firmly opposed exposing Xu Wuji's relationship with them too early, for fear that Yue Hailou and others would associate too much.

Zheng Hui, Dong Qifeng and others were all killed, but who knows how much details they reported to Cai Ying and Yue Hailou before they were killed?

Xu Wuji himself is a key figure in luring Zheng Hui and others through hard work. His true relationship with Zhufengtang is exposed, so it is hard not to understand the inside story of Xu Wuji's endurance with Xu Wufu over the years.

They also couldn't imagine what consequences would be caused by Cai Ying and Yue Hailou, once they suspected Xu Huai's life experience and regarded Zhufengtang as a thorn in their eyes that would be quickly pulled.

"I may be able to go directly to Cai Yuanyou and ask to keep these thousand soldiers and horses." Xu Wuli said with a frown.

Dong Cheng is a member of the Cai clan. Xu Wuli was sent by Dong Cheng to carry grain and grass to Hedong Road. He wanted to stay and participate in the war, so he went to Cai Ying's son Cai Yuanyou to talk about Xiang, which was reasonable.

"This is probably inappropriate. Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou gathered at least 50,000 imperial guards on the East Road, and they were all drawn from the Hexi army. They thought they were elite soldiers, and they would not look down on the combat power of the more than 1,000 troops in Tangzhou. Even if they barely kept you for the sake of Dong Cheng, they would probably use it as consumables." Xu Huai disagreed with Xu Wuli going to find Cai Yuanyou directly, which involved the organization of a thousand soldiers in Tangzhou.

He now has no idea where there will be any problems in the upcoming northern expedition battlefield. If more than a thousand Tangzhou troops were incorporated into Liu Shizhong, Cai Yuanyou's direct command of the Eastern Route Army would fight against the Khitan Shuozhou and Yingzhou, which were the Khitans, if there was a sudden change, the two sides would be too far apart, and it would be hard to imagine that they could take into account both.

Xu Huaisi looked at her for a while and asked Xu Wuli: "If you don't go back to Taiyuan, they shouldn't dare to return to Tangzhou without authorization, right?"

"Do you want to drag them to Taiyuan?" Xu Wuli asked.

"..." Xu Huai nodded.

What he is mainly considering now is how to deal with the endgame in the north of Hedong Road after the Northern Expedition was setback.

If there is a big defeat, as long as more than a thousand Tangzhou soldiers remain in Taiyuan, they will have an excuse to be openly transferred to Kelan, or directly to Ningwu or Langu and other cities further north to participate in the inside defense.

This is also easier to control directly by their own.

"Unless I will not show up again," Xu Wuli pondered, "I have had an argument with them about whether to stay in Hedong to participate in the war. Today, I left Taiyuan and greeted the two commanders. No one knew where I was. I suddenly hid and hid. They led more than a thousand troops back to Tangzhou. It was difficult to express their conspiracy to Dong Cheng! But the problem is that I will not be able to show up in public again in the future!"

Xu Wuli was sent by the governor Dong Cheng to lead his troops to escort food and grass, but suddenly disappeared. It might be because of some sudden change. If the two commanders of the wing army ignored him, they would directly lead the troops escort food and grass back to Tangzhou. How to face Dong Cheng's questioning?

How can Dong Cheng not suspect that they had an argument with Dong Cheng and then attacked him?

Therefore, it is no problem to drag more than a thousand Tangzhou soldiers and horses in Taiyuan for one or two months using a plan.

But the problem is that Xu Wuli disappeared for a month or two or even longer. If he wants to return to Tangzhou in the future, how can he explain his whereabouts during this period?

At this critical moment, you can leave your post without reason, and you are light in your slap.

"This may be aggrieved Uncle Wuli for a while!" Xu Huai said, "Zhufeng Hall needs someone to be responsible for watching the hidden stakes of Khitan in Lanzhou. I can't imagine anyone who can be more suitable than Uncle Wuli..."

Now no matter what, Xu Huai has to persuade Xu Wuqi to stay in Lanzhou and be with them.

"If I really need me here, even if I have been hiding my identity from now on, I will have nothing to be wronged." Xu Wuqi said.

He kept his true strength by Xu Wufu for years to hide his true life experience, and Su Laochang even stayed in Tongbai Mountain in anonymous and worked as a manure-carrying farmer for more than ten years.

Now that Zhufengtang has something to do, he will always hide his identity from now on and no longer show his true face, Xu Wuli will not hesitate at all.

Of course, although Zhufengtang is not very strong at present, it cannot be ignored. In the future, Wang Bing and Wang Fan and his son will still live in the two big trees. If they want to seek justice for the old things back then, it is of course more likely to achieve them.

For Xu Wuqi, it is not much difference whether to return to Dong Cheng and continue to lurk in order to approach Cai Ying, or to stay in Zhufengtang with anonymity and be responsible for some shameless things.

"It's good." Xu Wukun didn't want Xu Wuki to risk returning to Dong Cheng again, and Xu Wuki suddenly disappeared for no reason in Taiyuan. His wife and children who were left in Biyang City could also be arranged to go back to Yuhuangling directly - Xu Wuki's wife and children were also in Yuhuangling. Even if Xu Wuki had a deep hatred with them and died unexpectedly, Xu Wuki's wife and children wanted to return to Yuhuangling, Zhufengtang should not stop him and should not be in trouble with women and children.

"The place here is smaller and is too close to Sujin Tower - strangers appear frequently from here, which will inevitably arouse alertness!" Xu Wuli's mind changed quickly, and he immediately thought about how to lead people to stare at the secret stakes of the Khitans in Lanzhou.

Xu Wukun nodded and said, "Lao Wu must not go to Nanyu Lane. Zhufeng Villa has been exposed, and he has to find another place to act. However, most of the people we can definitely trust have entered the barracks. It is a problem to not draw a few people to call Lao Wu!"

They still don’t know how many eyeliners the Khitans had infiltrated into Lanzhou. Xu Wuli wanted to keep an eye on the Khitans’ stakes, but it would definitely not work if they had fewer people.

"Uncle Wu Ji disguised himself and went back to Nanyu Lane with us. Usually you pretend to be Zhou Jing's subordinates. In this way, you can arrange staff through Zhou Jing in many things!" Xu Huai said.

"If you meet Wang Bing Gong, Lu Xiong and the others, how can you disguise yourself from their eyes?" Xu Wukun asked.

Although the Nanyu Lane Pao Courtyard is large, Wang Bing and Lu Xiong will inevitably pay attention to the progress of the training of 500 prisoners at any time. Xu Wukun could not imagine how Xu Wuli and Wang Bing and Lu Xiong would not be recognized when they encountered each other.

You can't be in Nanyu Lane and still have your face covered all day long, right?

"This is easy to deal with!" Xu Huai drew his sword and cut off a table corner, then took a sharp sac knife, and quickly carved a brace.

"What is this for?" Xu Wuqi took it and asked in confusion.

"You put your mouth under your teeth." Xu Huai said.

Xu Wuqi then understood, stuffed the wooden braces into his mouth, looked at Xu Wukun and asked, "Is my face changing a lot?"

"Hey, this is such a coincidence. If I walk by in person, I won't recognize it." Xu Wukun cried.

The wooden braces are not carved finely enough, but they support the middle part between the nose and lips, directly changing the outline of Xu Wuji's face. Even the accent changes a little because of the existence of braces. If the braces are carved more finely and fit, it will not even affect daily speaking and diet.

Xu Wuqi didn't expect that there was such a simple and easy way.

When he stuffed it into his mouth, Xu Wuqi knew the best of his comfort. He also took out a sharp sac knife and picked the wooden braces thinner and fit more so that there were no flaws in daily life.

Xu Wuli originally pretended to be a merchant and rushed to Lanzhou with Zhou Jing. After the preparation was made, the three of them left the secret whistle house and returned to Nanyu Lane Shop in the dark.

To facilitate the consultation and discussing matters, Su Laochang, Liu Qiong'er, Zheng Tu and Xu Wukun all lived with Xu Huai in the yard.

Seeing Xu Huai and Xu Wukun come back, Su Laochang and Liu Qiong'er saw Xu Wuji following them, and it took a long time to recognize him.

Xu Huai asked Liu Qiong'er to call Zhou Jing over in person and ordered: "Uncle Wu Ji will follow you in the future. If you want to call any manpower, you must cooperate with him with all your strength!"

Not to mention his career as a bandit before and his career in the Jingsheng Army, he had to rely on Xu Wufu when he returned to Yuhuangling. Zhou Jing also cooperated with Xu Wuji to work. Now he is arranged to secretly cooperate with Xu Wuji, who is hiding his identity. How could he not want to?

"You are back now. Chen Zixiao's true identity is probably Han Lun, the general under Xiao Linshi, the former governor of Xijingdao of Khitan..."

Today, I had the opportunity to take over some military intelligence about the Khitans from the Hedong General Office in the name of the Military Supervisor's Inspectorate. Liu Qiong'er did not dare to slacken. He took Tian Yanyan and Song Yu'er all day long to read these boxes of files, and finally found some useful things from it.

If she hadn't known that Xu Huai had gone to the sentry room to meet Xu Wuli, she would have brought the file to the barracks to find him overnight...
