454 In the dead of night

Before it was completely dark, Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Denglai, led the army to set off.

A hundred miles a night is only less than half an hour for later generations to drive a car. However, for this cavalry, it is a relatively severe task. If you don’t get more roads as soon as possible, you may not be able to arrive in Liaoyang before dawn.

All the Han people in the village went out to the village to see off. Until they could no longer see the backs of the cavalry, they returned to the village under the shouts of the leader. They dealt with the remaining Jurchen Tartars in the village, and then divided the things in the village and rushed to the beach. There was still a dangerous future waiting for them.

In the chat group, Emperor Chongzhen once again brought a temporary group and brought Ruhua and Gao Yingyuan into the group. In this way, Gao Yingyuan and Ruhua could have a convenient and direct conversation. All things in Liaoyang were decided by Lu Xiangsheng. Emperor Chongzhen himself should eat, drink, and sleep.

However, he was still a little worried that Ruhua, a key figure. Without her, if you cannot contact the inside and outside immediately, it would add a lot of difficulties to the city. Therefore, he asked Ruhua: "How is your body? Can you persist?"

"Thank you for your concern. I have been resting in the village for two days and have recovered a long time ago." Wei Mulan was grateful and added, "After resting, all the soldiers of the army were in good health. Now the whole army is very motivated. Don't worry, your Majesty will have good news tomorrow morning."

The benefits of resting in the village for two days was indeed very good. Previously, the eight hundred cavalrymen hid in the morning and entered the hinterland of Liaodong at night. Whether it was people or war horses, they all accumulated a certain amount of fatigue. Now it is just like they just set out, and their physical strength and morale are naturally different.

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he felt much more relieved. After motivating them, he hugged Concubine Tian and went to bed by himself.

The night was getting darker and darker. Gao Yingyuan looked at the sky, asked Wei Mulan where he was, and then turned around and walked into the barracks.

There were hundreds of people sitting on the kang in this barrack, and most of them were drowsy and dozing. When Gao Yingyuan pushed open the door, the cold wind came in and suddenly woke up the people near the door.

"Fifth Brother, the time is almost over!" Gao Yingyuan said directly to Han Wu, who was sitting in meditating, and woke up some people.

Others didn't know what was going on, so Han Wu naturally understood. He stood up and shouted loudly: "Everyone is up, all the armed ones are with me to go to the streets to patrol!"

There was no war in the curfew inspection, so the Jurchen Tatars naturally could not do these things. Such work fell on Han Wu.

As soon as he said this, a subordinate said flatteringly: "Han Qianhu, why do you have to go there personally for such a thing? The villain will just lead them there!"

"Yes, Han Qianhu, just sleep, there will be no accidents." The other subordinates also spoke and expressed their opinions.

“…”

Under the reflection of the fire, Han Wu's face looked a little serious and shouted coldly: "Where does so much nonsense come from? Do whatever my brother says, don't be too long-winded! Otherwise, you will be replaced tomorrow!"

These are his little leaders, so they are naturally treated better than ordinary soldiers. I originally thought that I could hold Han Wu and Gao Yingyuan's thighs better. After all, these two thousand households are now appreciated by the Jurchens, and they are not against each other. Unexpectedly, what I got was scolding, and everyone shut up and didn't dare to have any other thoughts.

So, after leaving the camp gate, Gao Yingyuan and Han Wu led about fifty people to patrol separately. The routes they took were mostly important places in the barracks and government offices. After the inspection, they returned to the camp, it was almost dawn in less than an hour.

As soon as the two met, they asked their subordinates to wait in place, while the two of them came to the side to talk.

"Fifth Brother, you have arrived outside the west gate." Gao Yingyuan said a little excited and nervously.

When Han Wuyi heard this, he patted his shoulder and asked in a deep voice: "Ying Yuan, are you okay?"

"Okay, don't worry, Brother Fifth!" Gao Yingyuan patted his chest and replied in a low voice.

Han Wu looked at him for a while, and a little worried, he whispered: "Remember, be decisive! Although these people are the most obedient people selected by our brothers, they still should not be careless and do not give them the opportunity to think about it."

"I understand!" Gao Yingyuan nodded seriously, "Fifth brother, you must be careful!"

Han Wu nodded without saying anything. After patting Gao Yingyuan on the shoulder again, he pushed him slightly.

Gao Yingyuan looked at the fifth brother again, then hesitated no longer, turned around and walked towards the team, and after standing still, he said seriously: "My brother is going to complete what Lord Babuhai has assigned. If my brother is done well, I will be rewarded, and you will also be beneficial. If you make a mistake, you will not follow us brothers in the future."

When he heard this, the sleepy people suddenly stopped falling asleep. It was related to the future of Han Qianhu and Gao Qianhu, and also to their own future. If something goes wrong, this matter will be serious!

"Just follow the orders and perform well, and the position of the general flag will be determined." After Gao Yingyuan finished speaking, he ordered to set off.

Han Wu kept watching silently until Gao Yingyuan led the team out of the camp and disappeared from sight. He turned around and walked towards the barracks one by one and kicked in.

Not long after, Gao Yingyuan led the team to patrol the west gate. They were armed and about a hundred people walked over like this. Even if no one spoke, the movement was still a bit big in the dead of night. Even if the gatekeepers were dozing off, they were awakened and quickly heard the sound and looked at them.

Gao Yingyuan and the others were holding torches, and they didn't need to ask, and they could see who they were under the light of the fire at a glance.

The soldiers guarding the city gate saw them walking towards the west gate, and they were a little angry. What are you doing? It disturbs people’s dreams!

Even if he didn't want to, some soldiers came forward and stopped Gao Yingyuan under the city gate. He shouted unhappily: "Where are you patrolling? Go back!"

Gao Yingyuan looked at him expressionlessly and said coldly: "I am ordered to leave the city and open the door!"

When he heard this, the guard guard was a little stunned and went out before dawn. He immediately stretched out his hand and said, "Where is the handwritten?"

With a "bang", Gao Yingyuan slapped him in the face and stunned the man: "You are worthy of it? Ask Jun Tugu to come here in person, it is related to Lord Babuhai's secret order."

His slap made the soldiers behind Gao Yingyuan startled. Seeing him angry and remembering what he said, several soldiers immediately shouted: "I haven't heard what our Qianhu said, why don't you go quickly!"

The guards of the gate were also Han people, otherwise they would not have been on the gate. After hearing this, they saw them being aggressive and did not dare to neglect them, so they hurriedly reported.
