The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

The people in Xiao'an Village finally climbed over the mountains and arrived at the place Yan Yu marked on the map, the place where she and Qi Si went back into the mountain last time.

Yan Huaiwen returned to Huju City with the yamen servants, and blocked Mr. Tian who was ready to go.

"Where do you want to go?" Yan Huaiwen asked.

Mr. Tian said calmly: "Huaiwen is back, thank you everyone, will this trip go well? The grain bought from Linhai is at the back?"

He had some guesses in his heart, the location of Xiao'an Village was too coincidental, it happened to be stuck in the key place from Huju to the cities.

It was still a bit of a fluke, he counted the time, his students Yan Huai'an and Xiao'an Villagers should have entered the mountain yesterday, and Yan Hushu came back at this time, maybe...

Maybe not?

Maybe he didn't go back to the village?

Maybe the grain bought from Linhai lagged behind and arrived later, and Yan Hushu and the others were just one step ahead?

But... No matter how he counted the yamen servants around Yan Huaiwen, they were all the same ones when he went there, and there was no decrease.

Then there are only two possibilities. One is that Yan Hushu failed to buy food during this trip. How is this possible? But how much is the problem? Then, the second possibility is greatly increased. Yan Hushu temporarily stores the grain somewhere, and it is likely to be Xiao'an Village!

"The boat stopped at the ferry of Xiao'an Village the night before, and I wanted to use the power of the villagers in my village to transport the grain back to Huju, but I didn't want to hear that the villagers would leave the village the next day...to do something big.

It was snowing at night, and it started to fall. In a hurry, I had to let Gufeng and the boat go back first. I had to rest in the village for a day and settle the food before I came. Fortunately, there are still a few horses captured from Beirong in my village. The war horse, galloping fast, finally did not miss the hour..."

Yan Huaiwen's eyes swept over the chariots and horses prepared by the government, and he thought that it was not bad, Mr. Tian was really restless in the room.

"Your Excellency, you can just send it here. After the subordinates return, they will definitely work side by side with the volunteers of the frontier army. This trip should be worry-free."

Grandpa Tian secretly gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Huaiwen just came back, don't work too hard, rest for a few days and then..."

"Your Excellency has just taken care of himself, and it is windy and snowy today, so you should go back early. God is worried about your lord, and has repeatedly told my elder brother to take good care of you." Yan Huaiwen glanced at Mr. Tian's carriage, and said earnestly: "My lord Don't worry, just wait in Yazhong, and wait for me to return..."

"I will send you out of customs." Mr. Tian was still making the last effort.

"It's too eye-catching for the carriage to reach the pass. In my subordinates' opinion, we can divide our troops into two groups. Those who were originally assigned can go out with the frontier army. We will enter the mountains from the north of the city and follow the route that the Beirong fled that day. "Yan Huaiwen pointed to the mountain in the north.

Grandpa Tian frowned and said: "The mountain road is difficult, Huaiwen has never walked before..."

"It's okay, the yamen steward knows the map and the way." Yan Huaiwen found the map and handed it over.

"My lord, please look, I will enter the mountain from here, and after a short walk, I will be able to walk on this line, which is the path that Xiao Er walked that day."

Master Tian took the fine view, and had to admit that the picture was clear and clear, and every key position was marked.

"This picture was drawn by Xiaoer?" Mr. Tian was somewhat surprised.

That kid, can draw a road map after walking once?

Yan Huaiwen's expression was flat, as if this move was very common.

"Fix the eight directions, measure them with steps, have a high visual distance, and mark prominent objects... Xiaoer is indeed good at identifying directions."

He glanced at the yamen stewards nearby, and praised without hesitation: "The yamen stewards are also good at recognizing pictures and identifying positions."

This trip to the sea has benefited a lot from the stewards.

Yan Huaiwen doesn't mind helping him say something nice in front of the old man.

Everyone looked at this unremarkable young man.

The officer in charge of the yamen blushed.

He is not very old, and he entered the government office on his father's errand.

The old yamen servant is a good mapper and surveyor, so this housekeeping skill will naturally be passed on to his son.

The small yamen servant is a person who escaped from famine and settled down in Huju and then gradually emerged in the official yamen. Measuring land is not considered a hard job, but there is no room for error.

There were no paperwork in the house before, and no one cared if the ropes of the yamen servants were loose or tight, but since the two new house clerks took charge of the house, they checked all the paperwork in the house and pointed out a few places to measure the land. No mistake, this job fell to the head of the little yamen servant.

Although he was slow due to his lack of proficiency, his temper was very serious. The key was that he had an excellent sense of direction, and Yan Huaiwen used it very smoothly.

I haven't stayed in the big dye vat of the government office for too long, and I'm still a little shy.

The yamen servants present winked with envy.

"My lord, it's almost time, I'll go ahead."

Yan Huaiwen saw Elder Tian nodded and got on his horse. He was very agile and heroic.

Grandpa Tian looked at his carriage and couldn't help sighing.

Yan Huaiwen was not wrong about one thing, it was indeed inappropriate to go out of customs in a horse-drawn carriage.

He also knows how to ride a horse. He originally planned to ride on the horse, but it snowed heavily and continued for days. He knew his own body and bones. He ran into Yan Huaiwen, and the two brothers met in the village to exchange information, so he couldn't hide his thoughts.

Yan Huaiwen is capable of writing and martial arts. Although he is a household secretary for the time being, all the officials are impressed by him after the battle of Hu Jucheng. Well, Yan Hu's book is based on people's reading...

"Alas..." Mr. Tian sighed, with a complicated expression on his face.

Because he was still injured and stayed in the government office, the yamen servant who was acting as the coachman this time said ignorantly: "My lord, Yan Hushu came back just in time. With him here, he will definitely come back victorious."

Elder Tian looked at him, did not speak, got into the carriage and sat down.

Feel the carriage start to move.

Grandpa Tian's half-closed eyes suddenly opened.

What Tianyou said is right, the firewood and Zaoli must be matched by four people, and the groom must also make up for it. Five people, one hundred and twenty taels of silver a year, is really a lot...

Write another letter to Fucheng, remind me!

...

The frontier army, the government office, and the righteous men of Xiao'an Village finally met on the grassland.

When Xue Zongqi saw that Yan Hushu was the leader of the government office, his momentum immediately dropped by three points.

He laid out his plans.

To put it bluntly is very simple.

Knowing where the Beirong's gathering place is, it's time to surround and kill them at night.

After Yan Huaiwen heard it, he immediately said: "It's not possible at night. Of the three of us, only the frontier army is capable of night raids. The wind and snow are disturbing, blocking the line of sight, and it is difficult for archers to lock the target. If you fight close to the body, the number of frontier soldiers is not dominant. The officials and the village are brave. It is easy to confuse the enemy and the enemy, and mistakes will be made in chaos, and in war, mistakes will result in death or injury."

"We are already catching rabbits in an urn, and there is no hindrance day or night. Xue Zongqi led the frontier army to attack from the rear; the official government divided the troops on both sides, and the left and right armies responded from the side; Xiao'an Village Yong, formed a small team and scattered in the main area. Ahead, just in case any fish slip through the net..."

"What does President Xue think?" Yan Huaiwen asked.

Mr. Xue said in his heart that you have already laid out the route of marching and fighting, so there is nothing else to say.

"Just follow what Yan Hushu said."

Yan Huaiwen nodded, and said loudly: "Check the bow and arrow sabers!"

The servants were stunned for a moment, but subconsciously drew their knives.

The frontier soldier's body was faster than his brain, and he realized that the person who gave the order only after checking halfway seemed to be wrong.

General Xue: ...

To be honest, he didn't realize it at that moment, and almost went to check his knife.

Fortunately, the hand stopped on the handle of the knife, otherwise it would be so embarrassing.

The so-called village braves in Xiao'an Village were naturally the slowest to react.

But it doesn't matter, they have Yan Er.

Yan Lao Er said loudly: "No matter what you bring, take it out and have a look, let go of your head, you can take it out at any time, don't let Bei Rong run to you, where are you still feeling the stick knife all over your body? Don't put the crossbow and arrows too far away, lest you shoot an arrow and miss it..."

The men in Xiao'an Village got busy and put their weapons where they could easily get them. Several of them were entangled in whether to use a bamboo crossbow or a bow, so they ran to Yan Laoer to ask, and Yan Laoer kicked him twice angrily. .

The feet were not heavy, and the men smiled and hid, but they were not angry, and discussed with each other whether to hold a bow or a crossbow...

So, why do you have to suffer these two feet?

Xue Zongqi's jaw was about to drop in surprise.

He only knew that Xiao'an Village had a brilliant record, but he didn't know what they were like on the eve of the battle.

That Yan Er looked like the backbone of the village.

That's not true, they listened more to Yan Hushu's words.

But after Yan Hushu ordered, they all looked at Yan Er...

Xue Zongqi felt that his mind was muddled.

After watching it for a while, I felt like I understood it again.

Yan Hushu is the one who has the final say. Not only Xiao'an Village, the government office, but also his frontier army are all affected. He really has no way to reason about this, because he is the most official here.

Yan Laoer is... adjutant, adjutant, oops, that’s what it means. I expand on Yan Hushu’s words and talk about them in detail. I use a very special way to communicate with the villagers. See, the effect is not good. Generally good.

Originally, these village braves were still a little nervous, but he suddenly said a lot of "nonsense", and the atmosphere seemed to be different.

After Yan Huaiwen saw that the villagers had also finished, he said to his younger brother: "God bless, team up, fan out."

Yan Yu's eyes lit up.

These are the words she wrote on the map.

Yan Huaiwen feels that the comparison with a fan is very vivid, and he also agrees with the latter sentence "concealed advancement".

His eyes fell on Xiao Er.

Yan Yu straightened her body, with a crossbow in her left hand and a cudgel in her right. She was not tall, but she was the most energetic. She had a mask on her face, only showing a pair of eyes, and she looked at him without blinking, shining brightly.

Yan Huaiwen hooked the corners of his lips and nodded slightly at her.

The child smiled and rolled his eyes, patted the quiver on his back, and waved the stick in his hand.

People in Xiao'an Village are no strangers to the orders of the squad.

But after Yan Huaiwen ordered, he went to see Yan's second son.

Yan Laoer stopped talking nonsense with them.

Stretching out his hand and shaking it casually twice, the men in the village immediately started to move, looking for their little friends.

...

"You can't go forward later, you have a father." Yan Lao Er said to Yan Yu in a low voice.

Yan Yu solemnly assured: "Father, don't worry, I won't charge, I will shoot arrows from behind."

Seeing the wind and snow, Yan Laoer was even more worried: "The wind is so strong, don't use arrows, if you shoot again, you will miss it."

Yan Yu's eyelashes trembled, and he said to himself, father, you'd better remember this, your archery skills are the most unreliable.

"Qi Si, help me look after Xiao Er." Yan Lao Er said to Qi Si who was lying next to her daughter.

Qi Siweng agreed: "Second Brother Yan, don't worry."

"Father! It's started!" Yan Yu saw the frontier troops in the distance.

Through the wind and snow, she couldn't really see it, but she just felt that the one who shot the first arrow was her, Uncle Hu!

It was as if a warm current had been injected into the blood, and it burned hot after a short time.

Yan Yu raised her head, wanting to see more clearly, but was pressed down mercilessly by her father, her face was almost touching the snow.

But soon, her father didn't care about her anymore.

The yamen servants on the left and right rushed out at the same time, and they ran hard on the snow-covered grassland, leaving footprints like a comb.

Yes, there is no horse riding, and the riding skills of the yamen servants are limited to walking instead of fighting on horseback. Like the people of Xiao'an Village, they all came on their legs.

Yan Laoer stared at one of them, and crawled forward uncontrollably, wanting to get closer.

His brother shot several arrows while running, and several Bei Rong fell down. I don't know whether it was shot by the frontier army or his brother.

Yan Laoer is more inclined to the latter.

With his brother's bow in hand, the world was overshadowed.

It seems that only one person and one bow is the highlight of this, seductive and soul-stirring!

Yan Yu took the opportunity to crawl forward, and kept scanning the audience with a pair of eyes, paying attention to every move of Bei Rong as far as he could see.

She kicked Fourth Uncle Qi.

Qi Si felt it, but didn't take it seriously, thinking it was accidentally touched.

Yan Yu had no choice but to kick him twice more.

Qi Si looked over suspiciously.

He knew Xiao Er's strength, if it was unintentional, it wouldn't be this strength, it would hurt if it was someone else, but their brother is fine.

Yan Yu tried hard to wink with her big eyes, regardless of whether Fourth Uncle Qi understood or not, she propped herself up with both hands and feet, and was moving slowly horizontally...

Qi Si... naturally followed.

He had been waiting in the snow all the time, had been buried firmly in the snow, and broke through the snowdrift that was pressing on him. The snow on his body had no time to shake, so he ran with his tail between his legs.

Bei Rong's reaction was quick.

They yelled something, and more and more people rushed out of the tent.

Frontier Army and Bei Rong collided head-on.

There are only about forty people in the frontier army, but they are like fierce tigers.

When the enemy met, they were extremely jealous.

plan?

All plans stop here.

All that's left is a bloody fight.

After Hu Da entered the barracks, he practiced equestrian skills hard. Now he is able to shoot arrows on horseback. He is still not able to shoot arrows while galloping. But the horses of the frontier army are all domesticated good horses. There is no one he can't shoot, even the wind and snow can't stop his arrow path.

When the arrow arrives, the person dies.

Xue Zongqi got Hu Da, and he could wake himself up with a smile in his dreams in the middle of the night.

He didn't let Hu Da learn any knives, guns and sticks. Apart from the most basic training, Hu Da only practiced two things, equestrianism and archery.

The frontier army is also very difficult now, but Xue Zongqi will give Hu Da extra meals from time to time, and he can eat meat every now and then. The whole barracks knows that this new Hu Xiaoqi is very valued by the leader.

Hu Da lived up to his expectations, he was good at crossbows and bows, in a short period of time, he was recognized as the number one shooter in the field.

I'm too lazy to name it and I'm posting two in one~

I still haven't adjusted to sleep, but the good thing is that the update is earlier today, and I hope it will be earlier tomorrow~( # ^.^ # )~
