The official road from Taiyuan to Weizhou, through Xiurong, Yanmen to Weizhou, it was more than 900 miles. When Du Shiyi and his group arrived at Anbian County, the current Weizhou capital, it had been two nights and a day. There was an experience of rushing horses and whipping between Chang'an and Luoyang. This time, Du Shiyi, who was protected by everyone, was exhausted, but the journey was smooth. The scorching pain between the two strands was also stepping into the Weizhou Prefecture Office, facing the solemn atmosphere of ups and downs, was completely thrown behind him.

Weizhou was located at the forefront of the Turks. In the early Tang Dynasty, although it was established, it was still governing other places. It was not until the Zhenguan period that it defeated the Turks and was still under the control of Lingqiu. With the death of Mochu Khan, who had been preparing for war during the Kaiyuan period, the Turks were divided into various parts, such as the Tiele tribes including the Bayigu tribe and the Luo tribe, requesting surrender to the inner support. Li Longji, following the advice of Zhang Jiazhen, placed the five surrendered households in the north of Weizhou, and even organized the five surrendered households into the Hengye Army. The troops were 30,000, and they were moved to the north of the mountain. If there was military information, they would join forces to fight. If there was no military force, they would grazing each other. Now they are envoys who had not yet moved their troops. The Hengye Army only had the camps of the Tongluo tribe. The Weizhou capital was moved from Lingqiu to Anbian County where the Hengye Army was originally located.

It was a coincidence that the letter was written by Du Mingze, the governor of Weizhou, who came from Du Shiyi. Although his blood relationship with Du Shiyi had already been in the five qualities, Du Shiyi was famous after he passed the exam. Even the governor of such a border area had learned from his letters that Du Shiyi, a top scholar whom the emperor praised. Therefore, seeing that Bingzhou did not send troops to the heavenly army, but sent Du Shiyi and Wang Han to appease the subjugated households of the Hengye Army. He was stunned at first, but then he became furious.

"Absurd, absurd. At this time, even if you want to calm down and pacify the people, you should send the officials of the Grand Governor's Office to come to Shijiulang. You have not been appointed as an official at this time. Even if you get the saint to give a look, you should not accept this matter."

"Thank you for your concern. Since Zhang Jun is also taking risks with his own life, why should I cherish this?"

He spoke with a righteous voice, but Du Shiyi smiled bitterly in his heart. Thinking about Zhang's ruthless nature of cursing people, but he really refused. God knows what this person would do behind his back. At this point, he can't offend all the high-ranking officials and officials. Seeing that Du Mingze still had a stiff face and did not speak, he could not wink at Wang Han.

The latter immediately stood up and said something sincerely to Du Mingze. It has to be said that if Wang Han did not drink, his words and deeds were elegant, and he would be like a prince of a noble family. As the direct lineage of the Wang family in Taiyuan, he was also a famous talent in Bingzhou. Under his persuasion, Du Mingze, who had been determined to let the two pass from now on, finally let go.

"You can let you go to the Hengye Army, but you must not just bring such a few people."

"Uncle, no matter how many people I bring, once a chaotic relationship with the Luo tribe, thousands of people swept over. Not to mention that I bring more people, it will be useless. Even Weizhou will not be spared." Du Shiyi bowed deeply to Du Mingze again, and then said word by word, "Actually, I know my uncle's concerns, but I am afraid that I will show off my power in a blink of an eye. However, Zhang Envoy sent me here, and the name of observing the wind was only used. What was really useful is those who were familiar with the people and calligraphy history of the Luo tribe. What's more, Wang Langjun, who is proficient in Turkic language, can't afford to waste time now. Otherwise, if there is something wrong, my uncle may be blamed."

Seeing that Du Shiyi had said this, although Du Mingze regretted that he had a rare talent in the clan who had passed the imperial examination, he had to compromise because Zhang said that he was so chaotic. He took a deep breath and then said with a loud voice: "Since that's the case, you and Wang Ziyu will take people there. However, you might as well make it clear to those surrendered households at both ends of the head and rats. Not to mention that the Bingzhou Tianjian Army still has soldiers, even Dingzhou Weizhou and other places, there are also soldiers stationed in a wide range. If they stop at the cliff in time, the saints will definitely be favored and the court will definitely be kind. But if they dare to make trouble, then wait and see."

Du Mingze finally agreed to let go, but the group did not just rush to Hengye Army in such a tired manner. That night, he rested in the state office for a night and set off the road early the next morning. Du Shiyi was still worried that Yue Wuniang might be weak as a woman, but when he saw Yue Wuniang, whose face became darker in the morning, he had to smile bitterly that he had time to worry about her, and it would be better to worry about whether he could stand it. When everyone set out from the west gate of Anbian County, Du Shiyi went far and suddenly looked back at the city wall, and couldn't help but have a thought in his heart.

Although the walls of Anbian County, which is the capital of Uizhou Prefecture, are quite high, but in addition to the cities in Uizhou, there are many people scattered. If you really want to be caught off guard, these people will be the first to be affected.

On the way from Anbian of Weizhou to Hengye Army, the previous flat post road was gone. Although Wang Han was a child of a Taiyuan family, he would not be able to recognize the way here. If it weren't for the guide sent by Zhang Shuo, the twin guards of the Wang family would have obviously known the way. This journey would have to pass through the wilderness hills and rivers, and they were all small paths, which were extremely easy to lose their direction.

When everyone rode their horses slowly along a small forest path, and a guard who was exploring the road at the front was about to step out of the forest, he seemed to hear something, suddenly stopped the horse, listened for a moment, and then gestured to the people behind him to stop. After a look at Du Shiyi, he jumped off the horse and sneaked out of the forest quietly. After a while, he turned around, his face turned out to be solemn.

"There should have been a fight just by the river outside, and there were a few dead horses neighing."

When Du Shiyi and his group carefully emerged from the woods, everyone saw more than a dozen corpses falling by the river. Some of the corpses were inserted with arrows, while others were wounded by swords and swords, and many of them died with their eyes closed. Their still intact mounts were obviously led away. The seriously wounded war horses on the ground made a series of heart-wrenching whine, as if they were asking for help, or as if they were calling before death. Several guards stepped forward to check the corpses, and the leader quickly turned around and said cautiously: "The one who died should be Tieler. One of them had a gorgeous costume and was cut off his head, and the others should be followers."

Qian Lin, who had been silent all the way, finally changed his face at this moment. He got off the horse without saying a word and said sternly to the guard: "Take me to see the person who has no heads."

The guards all passed Zhang Shuo's order in advance, saying that he must listen to Qian Lin's orders at critical moments, so he will naturally not disobey. Du Shiyi and Wang Han looked at each other, and almost all of them dismounted without hesitation and followed. When they arrived in front of the corpse without heads, although the body emitted a disgusting and nauseating breath under the sun, Du Shiyi closed his breath almost immediately and simply breathed with his mouth. The impact was much better. The tragic feeling that came to his face made him unconsciously remember the robbery outside Chang'an City on the night before the Jingzhao Mansion Examination. But the next moment, he saw Qian Lin in front of him find a domino from the corpse, and then exclaimed in surprise.

"It turned out to be a misfire... Damn, how could it be a misfire?"

Wang Han frowned when he heard this and immediately shouted, "Who is Thunderan?"

When Zhang Shuo was struggling in Yuezhou, Qian Lin was always following him. After that, Zhang Shuo gradually promoted and never left his side. When he took office from Youzhou to Bingzhou, he followed Zhang Shuo to change his way to Weizhou and pass by Hengye Army. At that time, the corpse on the ground was still the same as the younger brother of the leader of the patriarch Bijiamochu, who was attached to the Luo tribe. He treated them warmly and scolded Mochu Khan for being cruel and unruly. The successor Vijay Khan still attacked Tiel's tribes. Before leaving, Zhang Shuo was excited to write an inscription and sent him a horse as a return gift. It was because of this connection that Zhang Shuo was confident that he would bring him with two books and history who were proficient in the situation of the Hengye Army and a few guards who came with Du Shiyi.

But how can you say this now

Seeing Qian Lin's eyes flashing, but his extremely frustrated expression was unable to hide because of the corpse on the ground. Du Shiyi could probably guess some clues even if he guessed. However, Wang Han was more anxious than him. Seeing that Qian Lin didn't say anything, he wanted to turn his back on his horse. He suddenly stretched out his hand to block the person, and then said sternly: "Since Zhang Jun asked you to accompany him, what's wrong with your hesitation? If you have something to say, you must know that the journey of the Hengye Army is not a minor matter. If you make a big mistake due to lack of information, can you bear the responsibility?"

"Now, when he went to Hengye Army rashly, he was just to die." Qian Lin finally turned around, his face full of annoyance, "Shu Tugan is the younger brother of the leader of the Tongluo tribe. When Zhang Envoy passed by Hengye Army, he had treated him diligently. Now that he is dead, the Tongluo tribe has undergone a huge change. At this time, he should immediately return to Weizhou to report the change, and then report Zhang Envoy to deal with it..."

Before Qian Lin finished speaking, Wang Han's expression changed. Du Shiyi wanted to speak, but only a guard suddenly shouted a loud attack on the enemy. Seeing that the guards suddenly took a warning posture, he immediately looked towards their lineup, and saw more than a dozen riders galloping towards this side in the distance. When he could barely see the alien uniforms on those people, the other party suddenly stopped his horse and then made a loud whistle. Hearing the sound, the blood on the face of the guard who first brought the person to check the body faded away.

"It's a detective, this is the whistle of the Tiel people's warning. Come on, retreat into the forest, otherwise it will be too late."

Although hesitated about Qian Lin's decision to rush back to Weizhou without saying a word, the Tieler soldiers and horses that whistled were obviously not good. Wang Han, Du Shiyi, could clearly detect this. For a moment, everyone immediately jumped onto the horse and stepped back to the way they had just come from the forest. Sure enough, when the last guard who had broken the horse also entered the forest, he heard a sudden sound of arrows, and a few feather arrows chased in sharply, and plunged deeply into a tree trunk. When everyone went deep into the forest, jumped off the horse and hurriedly selected trees to cover their bodies, Du Shiyi suddenly felt a faint fragrance beside him. When he turned his head and looked, he found that there were three people around him. In addition to Chibi, there were Yue Wuniang and the little monk Luo Ying.

"They... won't chase them in, right?"
