I played as an assistant in ancient times

Chapter 232: Good Fortune Is Hard to Give Up

At this moment, Lu Guan was riding his horse at full speed. He left Xia's guard team in the Khan's court and urged his horse forward without suppressing his joy.

Even the Ti cavalrymen who returned with him could not suppress their joy. His Majesty's army was almost reaching Barhu, not far from the Khan's court.

They now need more money and materials so that they can know the Khan's response strategy.

After galloping all night and exhausting their three horses, they returned to their camp.

As soon as Lu Guan and his companions entered the fenced wall, they lost their strength and slipped off their horses.

The people guarding here supported them while reporting the news to Shen Changsui.

Wu Er, who was always paying attention to everyone's movements, was the first to run over, "Lu Guan, what happened?"

"Big deal." Lu Guan panted and leaned on his people's legs. Several people wiped their sweat and massaged their shoulders and legs.

Shen Xiaoye followed his uncle and others and ran over, and saw Wu Er, with his hands behind his back and an angry look on his face, circling around several people on the ground.

The two Taoist priests squatted down without hesitation, took the pulse and massaged the acupoints of Lu Guan and others.

"Go, make some millet porridge for them to drink, and add some ginseng slices." Taoist Master Hengxi prescribed the medicine directly.

Wu Er frowned when he heard this. He had only ridden all night, was it necessary to take more ginseng? He was not afraid of taking too much.

"Hey." Shen Xiaoye turned around and went to prepare, and passed by Taiji Mori Chi who was walking slowly.

Millet porridge is ready, just add some ginseng slices on high heat.

When she finished cooking and sent it, the place had already been set up in Morichi's big tent.

Lu Guan recovered a little, took the porridge and continued: "At present, I only got this little information. If there is more, I will need to work harder."

"We just arrived, and the emperor has also arrived?" Wu Er was a little absent-minded, "Then how far is Barhu from here?"

Hu De was also anxious. He didn't want to go to Mobei and be suppressed by the emperor: "Yes, Lu Guan, we are not familiar with this place. Is it very close?"

“I have inquired about it. It is less than a thousand miles from here, and even closer to the Khan’s Court.

However, I heard that they were about to arrive, but they had not yet arrived, mainly because the government troops had too much baggage. "Lu Guan did not give specific numbers. The more vague he was about the rebel generals, the better.

Wu Er's face turned pale, "Three hundred miles and nine hundred miles are both less than a hundred miles.

You should know how fast your Majesty's cavalry is. We cannot just sit there and wait for death."

"It's more than 700 miles away from us, and it would take the Great Zhou cavalry at least seven days to arrive.

But everyone should be ready to move. I guess the Khan will ask all the tribes to follow him whether he fights or retreats. "Lu Guan's decision to rebel was based on grassland customs. Without the supply of the lower-level tribes, the Khanate alone would be nothing.

Wu Er's mind was particularly sharp at this moment. "No, no, no, Your Majesty is best at long-range and large-scale roundabout operations, and seven hundred miles is not a distance at all.

Let's not wait for the Khan's order, let's go now." He immediately made the request.

But Morichi said, “Which way to go? A few hundred miles to the north, there is an endless snowfield.

If you go west, you are likely to run into the Waqi. They are always keeping an eye on the Dada tribe and will take a big bite if they get a chance.

With just our small number of people, we are not even enough to fill their teeth."

"You can't just wait to die!" Wu Er roared in anger when he heard this.

But Shen Xiaoye felt that he was afraid, and didn't know why he had the courage to rebel in the first place.

Everyone looked at Wu Er quietly. He gritted his teeth and said, "Did I say something wrong? Believe it or not, Khan Ting doesn't dare to fight head-on."

"We need to explore this further." Shen Changsui was very calm. He said to Lu Guan, "You should continue to explore."

“I would like to, but the taijis of the major tribes are holding a meeting now.

To get the most accurate information, you have to pay more." Lu Guan asked everyone for money, but they looked at each other and were unwilling to pay.

Hud said: "Let's wait for the Khan's order! Also, we have to send someone to find Bart."

Whether it’s fight or run, just follow Khan Ting.

Seeing that everyone was not in a hurry, Wu Er couldn't hold back his anger and stood up and left.

"Then let's wait for news." Molichi was the poorest among the several groups. He had no money and no power, so he advised everyone to leave first.

This small meeting ended in a lonely mood, and everyone went back to their own tents one after another.

As soon as he sat down, Lu Guan asked, "Do you have any other valuables? Give them to me, quickly.

If you have any, I will write you an IOU."

The eldest sister spoke on behalf of the uncles, "There are only a hundred taels of silver."

Just as Shen Xiaoye, the accountant, was about to shake his head, Lu Guan immediately said, "I remember you also bought some expensive materials.

If that doesn't work, you can lend me the Night Pearl first."

Shen Xiaoye understood that he was referring to the brocade in the space. To be honest, she didn't want to give it to him. It was hard to part with Shancai, but her uncle patted her shoulder and said, "Go and prepare it. Brother Sun, you can come and help."

The second half of his sentence made the senior sister, who wanted to be with Shen Xiaoye, stop in her tracks.

But when Shen Xiaoye walked towards her tent not far away, Sun Mi asked in confusion: "Miss Shen, have you bought it?"

"I bought it and hid it in the secret compartment of the car earlier." Fortunately, Qi Qi Ge, who lived with her, was not there. Shen Xiaoye took a deep breath.

When they arrived at the door, Sun Mi did not wait for Meng Lang to enter, but stood guard outside the door.

This gave Shen Xiaoye room to operate. She moved out piece of embroidered satin one by one. After counting ten pieces, she stopped taking any more.

After thinking for a while, she took out the gem that Little Black Cat gave her and said, "Little Cat, can I give someone to Lu Guan?"

"It's already been given to you, you decide." The generous little black cat said again, "Will there be a reward after buying the information?

Will the reward be valuable like gems? If so, I will give him some more."

"The gems probably won't be as good as yours, and as for other rewards...it depends on whether the information you buy is worth it." Shen Xiaoye told the truth.

The little black cat immediately lost interest. Fighting depends on strength. If you can't get a better treasure than your own gem, just ignore it.

Shen Xiaoye wrapped the brocade satin in a piece of cloth and handed it to Sun Mi, but he didn't even look at what was inside.

After Lu Guan got it, he only rested for two hours before leading his men back to the Khan's Court. This time, people from other factions sent people to go with him.

Shen Xiaoye was very curious, "Uncle, which one did he find? He's so greedy."

They had brought a lot of special property with them before.

Shen Changsui said, "He wants to buy a few of the personal soldiers of the Grand Master's nephew and bring Xia to guard them."

"Can I still buy places for my personal soldiers?" Shen Xiaoye was very surprised.

The eldest sister smiled and said, "The Grand Master's nephew also loves money, but a name can sell for a lot of money, so why not do it."

"Xuan Yue, you stand guard outside the door." Taoist Qingxi spread out the picture he had drawn on Shen Changsui's bed.

After the eldest sister responded and went out, he said to the people present: “Nine times out of ten, the Khan’s court will order a move.

Dada is used to using this method to wear down his opponents.

Now they have two and only two ways to go, look, these are these two places."

"Isn't this the place you were planning to go yesterday?" Shen Xiaoye leaned in to take a closer look.

Taoist Qingxi nodded gently, "If we retreat now, this won't be the way to go."

“Well, it’s hard to unify the ideas of Benya Khan and the Grand Master to a great extent.

We just need to wait two days to find out the result." Shen Changsui agreed.

Shen Xiaoye asked: "So the Taoist priest will leave in two days?"
