"Thank you for listening to me..."
In the beacon tower, Zhao Muyun was teaching everyone to sing.
A-choo!
Suddenly, a chill came up his back, his nose started to itch, and Zhao Muyun sneezed violently.
Which bastard is targeting me again?
Are they Bai Shouren and his son from the Shuozhou Bai family?
Now even if Zhao Muyun stood in front of Bai Shouren and admitted that he was the one who killed people and intercepted goods, the Bai family would be unable to do anything to them!
Was it the silver-armored Tartar who had luckily escaped from his arrows in Black Camel Mountain?
I'm still waiting for you to deliver your head to my door!
Zhao Muyun rubbed his nose, smiled, and then said loudly:
"Keep singing, don't stop!"
"Because of you, the frontier is warm! Thank you, thank you for having you, Dayin is more beautiful..."
The singing was loud and clear, and the morale was high.
It turned out that since returning from taking leave to visit relatives, Zhao Muyun had been patrolling, training, modifying bows and crossbows, eating and drinking well in the beacon tower, and writing down the knowledge in his mind.
On a whim these days, I changed the lyrics of a song called "Listen to Me Say Thank You" and shared it with everyone to sing.
Military life at the border is not colorful at all, it is just simple, repetitive and boring.
In the past few days, Tang Yanhai and Wang Tiezhu, who were out on patrol, reported that Tartar cavalry had appeared again in the buffer zone.
They frequently crossed the boundary markers and headed towards the Zishui Valley.
The two men also had a close encounter with one of the rangers, shot a few arrows at each other as a test, and then left.
Scouts were also frequently sent from the direction of Jingbian Military Town, traveling back and forth between the beacon towers throughout the valley.
Various signs indicate that the Tatars' intention to move southward is becoming increasingly obvious.
Beacon towers everywhere were also on high alert, ready to release signal smoke signals as soon as the Tatar army appeared, so as to complete their first mission in this war.
After the beacon smoke sounds the warning, the soldiers at the beacon tower must evacuate immediately, return to the military town to reunite with the main force, obey unified orders, and carry out new combat missions.
If we were half a beat slower, we would have become a lone boat surrounded by Tatars all over the mountains.
Therefore, the beacon tower would not only send out scout warnings from afar, but also light smoke signals to warn when the enemy appeared ten miles away.
Before, the soldiers at the Yanqingdun beacon tower would have worried that they could not run fast enough and would be caught up by the Tartar cavalry and lose their lives.
But now, after more than a month of training, they can easily handle the five-kilometer cross-country race.
His overall physical fitness and mental outlook were completely different from before Zhao Muyun took over as the squad leader.
Even though the situation was becoming increasingly tense, the Yanqingdun Beacon Tower was relaxed and cheerful under the influence of Zhao Muyun!
"Captain Zhao, Lord Zhong has urgent orders for you to go to the military garrison immediately!"
At this moment, a knight came from a cloud of dust and shouted loudly below before entering the beacon tower.
"Um?"
......
at the same time.
In Shuozhou City, in Bai Mansion Courtyard.
Bai Shoujing politely escorted Sun Jizong out the door.
"Master Bai, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You, the Bai family, must seize it! If this is accomplished, His Majesty will bestow the title upon us, and the Bai family will be on the verge of success!"
Sun Jizong, riding on his horse, reminded Bai Shoujing loudly.
It turned out that during the military meeting that day, Commander Fan planned to send people to the western border of Daqing Mountain to contact the Wuhuan people and attack King Zhelan from behind.
Sun Jizong recommended the Bai family's caravan on the spot.
Fan Nan said he would think about it, and then agreed to Sun Jizong's proposal to cross the grassland under the protection of the Bai family caravan to find the Wuhuan people.
However, Fan Nan wanted to replace all the caravan's bodyguards with people from Shuozhou Prefecture.
In this way, both aspects are taken into consideration.
Sun Jizong immediately went to find Bai Shoujing from the Bai family.
I originally thought that Dayin and Beidi were at war, and the Bai family would not be able to do business with the Tartars, but I didn't expect that such a good thing would happen.
This is clearly smuggling under the banner of the government.
Isn’t it just to cover a few military personnel going to the west of Daqing Mountain?
This is not a problem at all for the Bai family, who have been traveling between the two countries for many years.
"Thank you, Lord Sun, for your kind recommendation. The Bai family is deeply honored." Bai Shoujing bowed to Sun Jizong and said, "I should have been the one to visit you at your residence, but you have condescended to come here. I am truly ashamed."
"It's just a small token of respect!"
After saying that, he placed a package in Sun Jizong's hand.
"No problem, no problem! Thank you for your hard work, Master Bai. I'll have someone get you the clearance documents later. Once you're ready, we'll set off right away!"
When he took it, his hand felt heavy. It was obvious that the things in the package were very heavy. Sun Jizong was very satisfied.
"Sir Sun, could you tell me who is the one who will replace our escort?" Bai Shoujing asked.
"Well... I shouldn't have told you this, but you'll know it sooner or later, so I'm telling you now!"
Sun Jizong looked around and said, "The one accompanying you is a sergeant from Jingbian Military Town, named Zhao Muyun!"
Zhao Muyun?
Bai Shoujing was slightly stunned, and Sun Jizong had already turned and left.
......
In the study of the Bai Mansion, Bai Shouren, who had been urgently summoned back from Wuzhou City by Bai Shoujing via carrier pigeon, spat out a mouthful of tea and said with gritted teeth:
"Brother, there are actually such coincidences in this world!"
"Is it this kid Zhao Muyun who will replace our escort and go to the grassland together?"
"Once we've crossed the border and entered the territory of the Tartars, won't he still be at my mercy?"
"This time, I want him to die on the grassland, his body chopped into pieces and eaten clean by wild dogs, only then will I be able to relieve the hatred in my heart!"
