Chapter 94 Discovery of the mountain col
No one knows what Zhou You and Wang Xiaojie talked about. They only know that not long after Zhou You entered Wang Xiaojie's residence, Wang Xiaojie's angry roar came from the house, and Zhou You immediately walked away with an ugly expression.
Immediately afterwards, a team of Qianniu Guards surrounded Wang Xiaojie's residence and prohibited anyone from contacting Wang Xiaojie. It was like a house arrest.
The next day, Zeng Tai and Li Yuanfang went to Helan Mountain and successfully met Li Kaigu and Qiu Jing, and invited them back to Chongzhou.
When Di Renjie met Li Kaigu and Qiu Jing, and after some exchanges with them, he quickly ordered Wang Xiaojie to be relieved of his military power and let him examine himself in the mansion. Li Kaigu was still in charge of the Youwei Guards' Youying troops, and Qiu Jing was immediately reinstated.
Got employed.
From Qiu Jing's narration, Di Renjie learned that he had mobilized Chongzhou to transport dozens of supplies of grain, grass and bedding for Wang Xiaojie's army, but Wang Xiaojie still kept sending people to urge them.
Qiu Jing felt very strange, so she secretly sent people to investigate, and found that General Wang Xiaojie had secretly transferred the grain, grass and clothing from Chongzhou to a col in Pingshan, west of Dongxi Shigu.
Later, the people sent by Qiu Jing found that a few days later a masked man in white came with a group of people in purple, loaded the grain and grass blankets into the car, and drove due west, which was the territory of the Khitan people.
So, the next day, accompanied by Zhou You and Ruyan, Di Renjie took some of his followers incognito and went to the Pingshan Col to investigate.
Sure enough, this was indeed the place where food, grass, bedclothes and clothing were once stored. There were also some bags containing official rations in the simple straw shed.
When Ru Yan and others were looking around, they noticed a boot wandering among the thatch on the ground. Lian picked it up, looked inside and outside, and then handed it to Di Renjie, who was walking by.
, motioning him to look at the inside of the shoes.
"Chongzhou arrest? It's not the officers and soldiers of Youwei Guards, but the boots worn by the officers of Chongzhou Governor's Office?" Di Renjie, who looked slightly moved after looking at it, looked at Zhou You and exchanged eyes, and saw Ruyan coming back.
Then he stuffed the boots into his sleeves without leaving a trace.
When Zhou You saw this, he couldn't help but was a little speechless. Master Di's sleeves are really a treasure trove. They can stuff anything, but even stuffing such a worn-out shoe won't smell bad!
Then outside the mountain col, they discovered that in addition to the ruts on one of the roads going west, there were also ruts on the other road going east. According to Qiu Jing, those people in purple should be sending food, grass, and clothes to the west.
.
To the west is the territory of the Khitan people, and to the east is a place called Qingshi Valley.
After observing the surrounding terrain, Di Renjie asked everyone to go around the back of the mountain and go up the mountain to check. Unexpectedly, after going up the mountain, they found that they could not see the bottom of the valley at all. The entire valley was steep and there was no
A place to hide people.
In such an environment, Qiu Jing actually said that the people he sent saw masked men in white and a group of people in purple carrying the grain, grass, bedding and clothing in the valley into cars and heading west. It seemed that his men might have clairvoyance.
It’s really a bit ridiculous!
As he was watching, the guide suddenly pointed down and said, "No, there are Khitan cavalry!"
"Quick, squat down!" Di Renjie, whose face changed slightly when he heard this, also shouted in a low voice, asking everyone to squat down and hide in the grass.
There was a sound of horse hooves below, and the faint sound of voices blew along the mountain wind. Di Renjie looked surprised when he heard it: "Strange, how could these Khitan people speak Turkic language just now?"
"Khitan people speak Turkic dialect? You can't? Uncle, could you have heard wrong?" Ruyan asked from the side.
"I heard it too, it's indeed Turkic," Zhou You on the side couldn't help but frowned slightly: "The Khitans who can speak Turkic...Turkic..."
Di Renjie also quickly made the decision to head east to the Bluestone Valley. After more than a hundred miles, they didn't arrive at the Bluestone Valley until night.
A group of people climbed up a hill to investigate, and saw a series of military tents in the valley ahead, with a Khitan army stationed there.
"Why is there a Khitan main force here?" Zhang Huan, who was following next to him, was the first to ask in surprise and confusion.
"What's wrong? We are originally on the territory of the Khitan. Isn't it normal to have their main force?" Di Ruyan continued.
Zhang Huan shook his head and said: "Right now, the main force of the Khitan is concentrated in the north of Chongzhou, and they are preparing to attack Chongzhou after repairs. How can there be such a large army hiding in the mountains?"
"Is it possible that the Khitans also want to imitate Zhao Wenhui's troops and attack in a roundabout way?" Zhou You said as he glanced at Di Renjie on the side: "If this is the case, then we have to send someone back to Chongzhou to report the news as soon as possible."
Di Renjie shook his head: "Detour? No matter how they detour, they can't get behind Chongzhou. Even if they can get behind Chongzhou, if they want to attack Chongzhou, they still have to attack the city. What's the point? So they will definitely not be Khitans.
people!"
"Uncle, they are all wearing Khitan military uniforms!" Ru Yan couldn't help but said, while Di Renjie continued: "There must be something fishy here. I want to go down and take a look."
Under Ru Yan's worries and dissuasion, Di Renjie insisted on going down to check: "Don't worry! Zhou You is here, it's okay! Zhang Huan, Li Lang, you and Zhou You will go down with me to have a look."
With that said, after several people came down the mountain, Zhou You, Zhang Huan, and Li Lang, the two leaders of the Qianniu Guards, and Di Renjie rode towards the military camp in the valley. At the gate of the military camp, the sergeant guarding the gate
As soon as he opened his mouth, both Zhou You and Di Renjie recognized that he was speaking in Turkic dialect.
After also testing the situation in Turkic dialect, Di Renjie directly took out the Ring of the Great Khan, and the sergeant also shouted in Turkic dialect, "The Khan's envoy is here" and ran straight into the military camp.
Soon, the general in the camp came out on horseback. At first, when he saw Zhou You and the others wearing Han costumes, the general was a little confused, but after seeing the Ring of Khan in Di Renjie's hand, he immediately got off his horse and knelt down on one knee.
Authentic: "The last general, Wu Qi Shi, respectfully welcomes the envoy!"
"Are you a Leopard Master or an Eagle Master?" Di Renjie asked, and he pointed out preemptively that without His Majesty the Khan's order, going out without permission was a capital crime. Wu Qishi was so frightened that he panicked and quickly revealed that their commander's name was Hari.
Yes, it’s just that Harile returned to Turks yesterday.
After entering the commander's tent in the military camp, Di Renjie, who made some probing inquiries and even blackmails, soon got the better information from Wu Qishi's mouth, and learned that Harile was following the order of Prince Mo Chuu before he left the army.
Came to Khitan territory.
After leaving the commander's tent, he saw a closely guarded military tent not far away. Di Renjie made some inquiries and learned that a Han general was imprisoned inside. When he went in and took a look, the man actually said that he was
Zhao Wenhui.
Di Renjie was so shocked that he subconsciously looked at Zhou You on the side. After leaving the military tent, he used the excuse of explaining his good words to Ji Li Khan for Wu Qishi, but he was in vain, so he proposed to take Zhao Wenhui to see Ji Li Khan.
Khan, and asked Wu Qishi to take two people to personally escort Zhao Wenhui to go with him.
Wu Qishi did not have any doubts for a moment, so he led his people to follow Zhou You and the others and left the camp. When they arrived at the place where Ruyan and the others were waiting, under Di Renjie's eyes, Zhou You's shadowy figure did not wait for Wu Qishi and his two men.
A follower reacted and knocked them off his horse.
At the same time, Ru Yan and others who had been ambushing nearby also swarmed up and tied them up. The group quickly got on their horses and left the place. If you like the movie and TV sign-in, please save it: (https://www.bajiewx.com) the movie and TV world.
