The eldest brother of the Lin family in the Red Chamber

"How many people are there?" Lin Mo felt his face was hot and painful. Then he remembered that his face seemed to be cut. He touched the blood on his hand. He licked it nonchalantly. Fortunately, it was not poisonous, so he didn't care. Don't worry, I'm in a hurry to count the number of people.He brought 340 grain soldiers, and Qi San followed him with [-] soldiers carefully selected by the Jingyuan Hou Mansion. But now after counting and counting, there are only a little over three hundred left. He couldn't help cursing, "Yun Leisheng, you bastard." Registered.

Shui Rong took a few steps back, staggered up a chair and sat on it, unexpectedly, the chair was probably hit by a drop just now, and it was very wobbly.He clutched his chest, feeling a dull pain, as if there was blood in the mouth, unable to spit it out or swallow it. Seeing that Lin Mo didn't turn his head when he went down, he couldn't help but laughed and scolded: "It's really heartless."

There are more than ten thousand guards in Crane City, but the separation of officials and generals was carried out many years ago. Now the guard is Yuchi Chenglong, whose ancestral home is Hebei, and grew up outside the customs since he was a child. Are you in awe.The soldiers experienced a sudden fight, although the opponents were much fewer than them, but because of the suddenness, they still paid an excessive price.

Lin Mo recorded the list of those killed in battle one by one.Then he closed the roster: "In the future, whoever of us is still alive will take this book back to Beijing and give it to Liu Dacai, and ask him to write tributes to so many heroes." The possibility of death made many people tremble.

If this master is gone, even if they are ordered to go back, they may not end well.

They were originally the garrison of the capital, and it was the first time they had faced such a close death.

Shui Rong sat for a while, and finally spit out the mouthful of blood. Unfortunately, except for a few hidden guards who were inseparable, no one comforted him.He wiped it nonchalantly—in fact, he smelled blood all over his body, and he couldn't tell whether it was his own or someone else's.It would be great if one day he could cultivate Lin Mo's distressing ability to vomit blood when there are many people.He thought bitterly.

"Go down." He said to his hidden guard, "Liu Chen, you can arrange it, mat torches."

You can't tell people to die without a place to bury them.

"Right now, it's like this anyway. There are three hundred of us, and the city gate is closed. If Yuchi is rebellious, let's say otherwise, he will die here anyway. If he can help us, then there is no rush " Shui Rong said, "Wrap it in a mat and burn it for the brothers, take the ashes with you."

It's freezing cold, and I don't know what I can dig up when I go down with a hoe.I don't know how Feng Shui is, let alone such a big show.People in the Central Plains pay attention to going to the soil for peace, but they also want their souls to return to their hometown.These brothers must have an explanation.Wrapped in a straw mat, spread dry firewood, poured strong wine and thick oil, threw a torch down, and the fire immediately climbed to the sky.

Lin Mo stood very close, hearing the sound of crackling firewood and smelling the smell of tar cooking meat, suddenly felt powerless: "I'm really useless at all. When I came here, I thought I could do a lot—"

Again such remarks.

Shui Rong pursed his lips: "If it wasn't for you and me today, there wouldn't be such a scuffle." He paused, "Others will walk over unimpeded—but most of the military pay will be deducted."

"Yun Leisheng wouldn't risk the world's dissatisfaction for such a sum of military salary. Although he is brave, he has to weigh the consequences." Lin Mo thought clearly, and his mind became clear, "The matter of withholding disaster money In the first place, no one needs to say it clearly. If you hint at it, people will know it well. Now you meet me who knows their rules and doesn't want to depend on them. Turn a blind eye and let me go. In the past, everyone had a better life. Anyway, the current situation in Mohe is like that, and I don’t have the energy to take care of the pile of broken accounts of Chen Zhima and rotten millet in Hecheng, but he came to kill me—no, he came to kill you life."

Shui Rong said: "It's as if it has nothing to do with you."

"Then tell me, what is the relationship between this matter."

Water soluble does not speak.

There are a lot of people talking here, but Lin Mo suddenly remembered that Shui Rong told the emperor before he set off that he knew that there was Beidi's internal response outside the pass.Unconsciously, his eyes tightened: "You mean—"

Shui Rong frowned: "You're thinking too much. If his hands are really that long, is he really an old man?"

But why?

When Yuchi Chenglong searched for the flames in the sky and arrived, he could only see two tall and tall young men with blood-stained faces standing in front of them, wrapped in heavy clothes like two balls.He took a deep breath and stepped forward to salute: "Your Majesty has seen Wang Ye and Hou Ye."

Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

Yuchi Chenglong is not confused about his age, Saibei wind is strong, his whole face is dry and wrinkled, he doesn't look like a man who is only forty, his big beard covers most of his face, and there are still a lot of ice scum hanging on it, Lin Mo walked away When he got close, he could almost see the white breath he exhaled quickly forming ice slag on the fur hat.He sighed, the current situation of himself and Shui Rong is no different.

In a place like this, it's not about dressing up.

"Our place is dry and cold. It's windy, but not humid, and it's not too hard to bear. If you burn the kang, you'll be fine, but it's hard to work at night." Yuchi considerately didn't mention the melee that night.The winter night comes too early, not to mention that it is located in the extreme north.They saw that the sky was already dark enough to make one's heart tremble, but it was not the usual bedtime—Lin Mo always slept late.

But he didn't want to use his brain tonight.

He didn't think about whether Yuchi was an enemy or a friend, and he didn't think about how his uncle was doing, just wanted to sleep well.

However, the reason why Lin Mo is Lin Mo is naturally following the four words of what one wants, which has nothing to do with it.He is extremely strict with himself, and he dares to relax only after finishing what should be done.Yuchi faltered and refused to say anything, and he didn't ask any further questions, he just asked someone to fetch Shangfang's sword.

If I come in person.

Yuchi sighed and knelt down: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

In the borderlands, the folk customs have always been tough, and they don't have much awe of the imperial power of the capital. How many people only know the county magistrate but don't know that there is an emperor.Lin Mo took a gamble and finally saw Yuchi's thoughts.

"Has Song Yan ever been to Crane City?" he asked.

Yuchi didn't dare to lie: "Brother Song really didn't come to Hecheng, he went directly to the west city gate of Mohe around Jiatong." Song Yan is familiar with the art of war and has won many battles, but he has never been able to be a knight Well, it was really because this person had a somewhat tepid personality, no matter how urgent the matter was, he hoped to follow the path he had originally set, and had violated several military orders for this.

Although the general is out, the emperor's order is not acceptable, but with his temperament, the emperor is considered magnanimous if he doesn't punish him, and he is expected to be knighted?He himself seems to care and seems not to care.Next time, the old god will still be there.But the historians love him, thinking that he has the same unlucky luck as the parachutist Li Guang, but he has many more military exploits than Li Guang-Song Yan has never tasted a defeat in the past 20 years.Therefore, this man is still alive, but the historians have written many biographies for him, calling him General Ever Victory, and he is not afraid of being slapped in the face in the future.

Now, Song Yan took another risky move.Detour Jiatong, this is to form a siege to Beidi together with the Mohe army.But what if General Xi can't survive in Mohe?What if Bai Shiyue didn't escape by himself, but continued to be trapped in Beidi's army?If some other officials who came to deliver food today, the army's salary will be only half when it arrives in Mohe?

The Great General Song didn't even think about it.

Lin Mo won the bet.

Unlike the Taishanghuang, today some people value civility over martial arts—although he didn't say it himself.But this does not mean that the emperor, who is in his prime, has relaxed his control over the generals. On the contrary, the generals on the border have been rotated every five years, and two rounds have already been implemented.It has only been three years since Yuchi Chenglong took over the Crane City garrison, and there are still two years before he should go elsewhere. He doesn't have the guts to gamble on this. His soldiers, listen to him and rebel with him?

What are you kidding? !

The farther away people are from the capital, the more they feel that the imperial city is far away and mysterious, and the secrets that people in the imperial capital keep secret are discussed as a pastime after dinner.Lin Mo is a man of three yuan, a young talent, some people say that he is a Wenqu star who came down to earth, escaped from the tiger's mouth, saved Shui Rong's life, and was able to be "both civil and military", so everyone must envy the Lin family's good luck, raising a Such a good son came and sheltered future generations.I don't know who said, what do you know, people like exiled immortals can be raised by the Lin family?Don't you know, he looks exactly like a prince!

Could it be that he is ``````

Hush, shut up!This was witnessed by the nephew of my boy's teacher, and I will tell you only one person——

……

Of course Yuchi had heard a lot of gossip like this, and he also knew that the soldiers under his command had probably heard a lot of it, and they might have personally participated in the spread of the news.Originally, he was only doubtful, but this time he took a look in person. The majestic King of Beijing Jing was suppressed by a lord. He waited for Lin Mo to finish speaking before opening his mouth. He didn't have the air of a prince.This made him also have a lot of doubts.With Yun Leisheng's offer, he hesitated for a few days, but finally failed to agree.

In fact, he was also a little apprehensive. He did a lot to collect money back then...

Fortunately, this young master is not the one who cares about every detail, or rather, the current situation makes it impossible for him to care about every detail.

"General Yuchi knows how to deal with Yunleisheng?" He asked with a smile.

Yuchi was in trouble.

Shui Rong interjected: "Don't be so impatient, you have to catch it and ask carefully, don't you want to know how much he has been greedy these years? Who helped him to be greedy, and who gave him the courage? He is quite smart, pretending to be Dongpu ninja, pretending to be quite similar-I thought, it would not be for no reason, he must have seen the real Dongpu ninjutsu in his daily life."

Yuchi broke out in a cold sweat.

"It's too much trouble, I'm going to Mohe." The old god Lin Mo was there.

Yuchi hurriedly said: "If it's inconvenient, my lord, I'm willing to do it for you."

"Don't be under pressure." Lin Mo said lightly, "The one surnamed Yun is looking for death."

After Yuchi Chenglong left, Shui Rong said slowly: "It can't be the sound of clouds and thunder, Crane City is too far away. And I always feel that this traitor is a member of the army, and it is even very possible that he is a general who has left the seat." Someone close."

Lin Mo smiled and said, "I thought you were talking about General Xi."

"Why didn't I mention him?" Shui Rong asked back.

Lin Mo was stunned.

"Actually, to be honest, I even doubted your uncle."

Lin Mo chuckled and said, "I thought you had already figured it out before asking the emperor. However, if Yun Leisheng's actions today are thoroughly investigated in the future, it will not be enough for him to destroy the three clans?"

"Then why not investigate thoroughly in the future?"

Lin Mo's eyes darkened: "It's too dirty, don't move them for now."

He has been waiting for this opportunity for more than ten years, and he never minds waiting for a few more days.

Now - not a good time.He paused and asked, "When will the bank note be cashed?"

"They are going on a mountain road, and they will meet us at noon tomorrow." Shui Rong said, "You can't figure out why Yun Leisheng dared to attack us?"

Lin Mo let out a "huh".

"I seem to have discovered his good stuff." Shui Rong said proudly, "This man contacts the local gentry for a profit! It's just that my hands and feet are slow, did he notice it?"

Lin Mo said: "He just didn't see it, and he couldn't find it when he looked back. He should know that you took it. Even if it wasn't you, at this point, the one who stole his account must have shown us."
