Being an emperor is not something he can do, so he can only rely on his connections.

The water bridge was less than five miles away from the gate of the water defense camp, and Han Ye arrived there in just a few minutes on horseback.

Seeing Han Ye getting closer and closer, Gao Fei was ready to draw his sword at any time. Zhang Jingwei patted his shoulder and he calmed down.

Seeing Han Ye coming, the soldiers at the checkpoint saluted one after another. Yi Feiyu stepped forward and led the horse towards Zhang Jingwei's carriage.

Zhang Jingwei looked at Han Ye. He was tall and strong, stronger than a log, with a resolute face, but the heavy bags under his eyes clearly showed the traces of being eroded by alcohol and sex.

"Are you Han Ye?" Zhang Jingwei asked tentatively with a haughty look.

"I am Han Ye! May I ask if you are the eldest master Sima?" Han Ye handed the talisman paper to Zhang Jingwei respectfully.

Since the other party did not reveal his identity and certainly did not want to be exposed, Han Ye naturally would not call him by his name.

After Zhang Jingwei came to this world, he didn't know what the royal surname was.

Could it be... the King of Jin? Jin? Sima?

Suddenly, Zhang Jingwei became even more arrogant.

"Since you have a token, why question it?"

Han Ye knelt down and kowtowed, muttering, "This token of yours is not enough to prove your true identity. Do you have a handwritten letter or something..."

Before he could finish his words, Mu Tou pointed at Han Ye's nose and shouted, "You are so arrogant! My young master is of noble status. How can I allow a mere lieutenant like you to examine his body?"

What a strong and powerful warrior! Han Ye looked Mu Tou up and down. Although he was dressed poorly, only a noble family could raise a warrior of such a size.

Moreover, the coachman had a sword on his waist. Even though the horse was swaying, he remained as steady as a rock. To have such a stable lower body, he must have had great waist strength. But he looked familiar.

Look at this convoy again. There are so many cavalry guards, and they are arranged in an orderly manner. They are real war horses.

Zhang Jingwei showed his impatience and asked, "How long are you going to make me wait?"

Han Ye was momentarily distracted as he surveyed the convoy, and quickly apologized, "Damn it! It's getting late tonight. If you don't mind, you can stay at my water defense camp!"

Zhang Jingwei said disdainfully: "It's a remote and poor place, I understand!"

A sweet voice came from the carriage: "Sir, I am very sleepy. Haven't you found a place to stay yet?"

"Oh~ My little lady, there is a place to stay~" After dealing with the beauty in the car, Zhang Jingwei turned to Han Ye and said, "Prepare some food first and bring my fine wine in. This young master is not used to your wine."

"Understand your orders..." Han Ye gestured to the people behind him, and they opened the barricade.

Zhang Jingwei and his group swaggered into the water defense camp.

Watching Zhang Jingwei's convoy go in, Han Ye roughly estimated the number of people. As expected of a royal family member, he was always accompanied by two hundred guards when traveling.

After Han Ye got on his horse, he asked Yi Feiyu, "Did you bring the person here?"

Yi Feiyu replied, "Yes."

Han Ye nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well done. You can come along to the banquet tonight."

Yi Feiyu bowed and thanked him: "Thank you, Captain!"

After entering the water defense camp, Zhang Jingwei looked at the dilapidated barracks and the pale and skinny soldiers in the camp.

Gao Fei, who was driving, was checking the layout and guarding of the water defense camp.

There is only one gate for entering and exiting the entire camp. There is no wall built outside the camp, only a circle of fence.

The central camp had already built a high wall, and inside the wall were some neatly arranged tiled houses. It was said that this was originally a pirate stronghold, and this was the residential area of ​​the pirate stronghold. Later, Han Ye mobilized labor to build it into housing for the officers.

When he arrived at the gate of the inner camp, he was shocked.

This inner camp not only has high walls, but also a large curved city wall built outside the city gate. The gate of the city wall faces a protruding horse wall watchtower.

After entering this curved urn city, there is another urn city. This fortification is simply exquisite to the extreme, not even Yunzhou has such a configuration.

Gao Fei seemed very calm.

As Zhang Jingwei marveled at the thought, Gao Fei took out his notebook and wrote, "My masterpiece!"

After receiving praise from Zhang Jingwei, he put the notebook back into his arms, a hint of pride flashing across his face.

This was the only time Zhang Jingwei and Gao Fei had a strange expression in their two days together.

While praising him, Zhang Jingwei thought to himself: How could Gao Fei have such great ability?

After Han Ye settled Zhang Jingwei's men in the outer camp, he rode his horse towards the gate of the inner city.

"Open the door!" Han Ye gave an order, and the two guards on the gate tower began to turn the capstan. This was a fixed pulley, so it was not labor-saving to turn the capstan. It took a minute of hard work to open the door halfway.

However, the half-open city gate was enough for them to enter the inner camp.

Inside the inner camp, there were flames everywhere, and in the center was a three-story attic, which was brightly lit from top to bottom.

Gao Fei quickly covered his mouth and nose with a cloth. The inner camp was too bright and he was afraid of being recognized by Han Ye.

Han Ye said to the carriage, "Sir, the banquet will be ready soon. Please wait in the inner hall. I will go feed your horse some good fodder."

Zhang Jingwei nodded and said, "Well, that's quite thoughtful."

He then got off the carriage. Captain Lai was kneeling on the ground acting as a seat, and Zhang Jingwei stepped on it without noticing.

He was limp, startled, and fell to the ground.

"You useless thing, you actually hurt the young master!"

Han Ye was furious when he saw this and drew his knife to chop at Captain Lai.

"Please spare my life, Lord Han~" Captain Lai knelt on the ground and kowtowed desperately for mercy.

Gao Fei also quickly drew his sword and turned around to block Han Ye's attack.

The collision of the two knives caused Han Ye's hand to hurt a little.

Zhang Jingwei smiled as he got up from the ground and cleared off the dust on his body. "It's nothing, it's too dark around here, I didn't notice it. My beauty can't stand the sight of blood, Captain, let it go."

"I am guilty!" Han Ye apologized first, then shouted to several soldiers: "Come here! Add more lights!"

Zhang Jingwei led Xiao Cui down from the car, and Captain Lai held on to the ground tightly, not moving, as if he were really a bench.

Xiao Cui breathed a sigh of relief only after she got out of the car safely.

After a while, several soldiers brought candlesticks and lit candles, and the inner camp, which was already very bright, became even brighter.

Gao Fei lowered his head again.

All the soldiers were arranged in the outer camp. The only ones left in the inner camp were Gao Fei, Yi Feiyu and Mu Tou, the three who could fight.

……

Beta in the outer camp was assigned to a separate tent, and the whereabouts of the rest of the troops are still unknown.

He looked outside the tent.

There was no one on night patrol.

So he tiptoed to find his brothers in Yunzhou.

Sure enough, they were all separated and placed.

Although the troops in this outer camp are not numerous, they are still very difficult to find.

Later, he found a few people and appointed them as temporary flag officers, and asked them to pass on Master Zhang's order, "Stand by the troops and wait for dawn!"

Biao Heizi and others took the armored guards to relieve the guards in the central camp. The captured yamen runners and police officers were taken away in two prison vans.

The entire army is ready to go.
