"Who is this? Who is this person? This is the first time I've heard of this person's name!"
"How could Lord Fan name and address a beacon tower sergeant?"
"What's his relationship with Master Fan?"
"Lord Fan previously visited Jingbian Military Town in disguise. Could it be that he got to know this person?"
"What ability does he have that he is so favored by Master Fan?"
“…”
For a moment, there was a lot of discussion in the big tent.
Yang Jian was even more stunned.
Teacher, teacher, you don’t have to take care of this person in this way!
Zhao Muyun is just a small sergeant. How can you bring this up in front of so many commanders of the Zhechoufu?
Although Zhao Muyun performed well in Black Camel Mountain, it does not mean that he has the ability to complete such a task!
Yang Jian didn't understand Fan Nan's behavior at all.
Pei Lun frowned. Why would Fan Nan care so much about such an unknown soldier?
Seeing the excitement among the crowd, Fan Nan was not moved at all, and looked at everyone with a half-smile:
"Does everyone have any objections to the person I've chosen? Who among you is willing to go on this trip?"
As soon as the words fell, everyone fell silent and no one responded.
They were not fools, and of course they were not going to enjoy the scenery. Instead, they had to cross the grassland occupied by the Northern Di Tartars to reach the western end of the Daqing Mountains.
You have to be careful all the way. If you encounter the Tartars and your identity is discovered, there will be no way to survive.
Pei Lun was very disappointed with his subordinates.
No wonder Fan Nan directly asked a beacon tower captain who had never been heard of to contact the Wuhuan people, and was unwilling to select personnel from other Zhechoufu to go.
This squad leader of Zhao Muyun is probably the talent that Fan Nan discovered during his time as a secret agent!
Yang Jian is his man in Shuozhou Zhechoufu, and now he wants to support another leader, right?
Pei Lun also heard some rumors from the capital that the Ministry of War was going to reform the army.
Could it be that Fan Nan has other purposes in doing this?
He nodded at Sun Jizong!
Sun Jizong was feeling extremely aggrieved at this moment.
He was the second-in-command of the military and political power of Shuozhou Zhechoufu, but he was kept in the dark about many things.
First, there was Fan Nan's incognito visit, then there was the encounter at Black Camel Mountain, and then there was Zhao Muyun's sergeant.
One thing after another made him, the brave and resolute captain, look like a decoration.
When he saw Pei Lun hinting at him, he naturally understood that he wanted him to volunteer.
But he only had a few close confidants in Shuozhou Prefecture, and all of them were good-for-nothings.
If we want them to go out and contact the Wuhuan people, I guess no one would dare to go.
well!
Just as he was about to shake his head helplessly, his eyes suddenly lit up. Why must he use the soldiers from Shuozhou Prefecture? Wouldn't other people be better?
"General Fan! I have something to say!" Sun Jizong hurriedly stood up.
Fan Nan was slightly stunned.
He had already learned from Yang Jian that Sun Jizong was Pei Lun's confidant, so he instructed Yang Jian to keep the news about Sun Jizong secret until now, in order to catch Pei Lun off guard.
To win this victory, he must take control of the army and make it obey his orders completely.
Although Pei Lun expressed his cooperation generously and agreed to give up command and take charge of the logistics division, Fan Nan could see that the generals in Hedong Road were all acting according to Pei Lun's mood.
But now Fan Nan definitely cannot touch Pei Lun.
Pei Lun did nothing wrong. If he was moved for no reason, the generals in the various prefectures in Hedong Road would be in panic and their morale would inevitably drop greatly.
It may be understandable to deploy a pocket formation and let the troops of Shuozhou Prefecture serve as the main force to block the attack of the Northern Di.
After all, Yang Jian was the only lieutenant he could trust.
But the proposal to send Zhao Muyun to contact the Wuhuan people surprised everyone!
This is the effect Fan Nan wanted, to make Pei Lun and his group of close confidants confused and unable to see what Fan Nan was up to.
However, now that Sun Jizong has jumped out, he probably doesn’t want to be ignored anymore!
Let's hear what he has to say: "Captain Sun, do you really want to make this trip?"
"Master Fan, I am a more suitable person to recommend!"
"Hmm? Tell me!" Fan Nan said lightly.
"The Bai family, merchants from Shuozhou City, frequently travel to the border and are familiar with the routes. Having them use the excuse of traveling for trade would be safer and more convenient, allowing them to quickly cross the Tartar grasslands and reach the western end of Daqing Mountain."
"If they can help us contact the Karasuma people, that would be great!"
Although Sun Jizong was very excited inside, he tried to speak calmly.
"Oh, Lord Fan, Captain Sun's proposal is brilliant! The fact that the Bai family's caravan can still leave Shuozhou at this time sends a signal to the Tartars that our defenses are lax. This creates favorable conditions for us to lure the Tartars into our pocket!"
Pei Lun immediately cheered for Sun Jizong.
It was quite difficult for Fan Nan to send a sergeant through the Tatar territory; but it would be a different story if a caravan went through.
Once they contact the Wuhuan people and launch an attack on King Zhelan from behind, Sun Jizong will also be able to share the credit.
Pei Lun didn't want Fan Nan to take advantage of everything.
"Sir, although the Bai family has connections between Dayin and Beidi, can they be trusted? If they tell the Beidi people about our intentions, wouldn't our plan be exposed?"
Yang Jian stood up and expressed his objection, "It is absolutely unacceptable to hand over our important secrets to a businessman."
He had been serving as a commander in Shuozhou for a year, so he knew that the Bai family and Sun Jizong had a close personal relationship.
The Bai family offered him bribes many times, but he refused them flatly.
