At night, the marching chief Helan lay wide on the couch, his back was covered in blood and blood. The effect of a hundred staff was really hit. If everyone hadn't pleaded with him, he would have had forty whips again, and then his back would have been even more "desolate".

The military doctor was treating the wound and applying medicine, while Helan Kuan was lying motionless. This kind of skin injury was no big deal for him. The key was that he was beaten in public and his face was lost.

There are rules for military camps, such as soldiers are not allowed to enter and exit the military camp at will, but such camp bans are actually difficult to implement, and this has been the case for many years.

Just like the courts of all dynasties have explicitly prohibited large households from hiding populations and concealing land, saying so, but no one does it as a result. The barracks that "soldiers are strictly prohibited from entering and leaving at will" are basically no one takes it seriously.

The army was stationed in one place, with a camp stretching for several miles, with more than a dozen camp gates. Every day, there were countless soldiers who went out to chop firewood, carry water, hunt and walk horses. How could they control all the soldiers tightly?

As long as soldiers enter and exit the military camp, the coach turns a blind eye. This is the default thing. No one will take the initiative to provoke it. If they are really angry because the camp is not strictly prohibited, such a coach will either be stupid or really want to "provoke trouble".

Helankuan ate a hundred sticks because his subordinates were not strict today. If the evidence was conclusive, he arranged for his subordinates to go out for a walk, but others came back from the camp to get some wild game. The people who went out did not come back with the horse, so they were caught.

These unlucky ghosts were tied up with grass marks on their necks, and were then escorted to Youying. As the chief general, Helankuan was beaten with a hundred sticks.

Several more generals were whipped forty whips in addition to one hundred staffs because they indulged soldiers to go out to "maids".

In contrast, Helankuan is relatively lucky. It is nothing for him to have a mere physical injury, but because the coach pulled him out to "clear military law to serve as a warning to others", it makes people feel very unworthy.

The military doctor put on medicine for Helankuan and left. The servant brought warm food. Helankuan put on a robe and sat up to eat. While eating, he thought about the current situation. When the king of Shu Yuchi Dun died, the situation in Henan was critical, and he couldn't help but feel worried.

The situation in the Yecheng court now looks a little bad, and Chang'an has survived the most difficult time, so the current situation in Henan is related to the victory and defeat between the east and west sides. There are two key points, Zhengzhou and Caozhou.

Yuchi Shun was in charge of Zhengzhou and confronted Yu Wenming, while Helankuan's army was stationed in Caozhou and confronted Yu Wen, Bozhou.

Which side will decide the winner first?

Helankuan thinks it should be Caozhou's side, because Yuwen Wen, who is good at fighting in front of him, is good at both offense and defense, and is very likely to be responsible for breaking the deadlock, so sooner or later the opponent will take the initiative to attack.

Thinking of this, Helankuan felt a little emotional, feeling that Yuwen's family had another warlike vassal king after Yuwen Xian of Qi.

If Yuwen Xian had not died back then, how could the country be overthrown?

Helankuan remembered his old friend Yu Wen Xian, his old friend Yu Wen Liang, and many past events, only saying that the world has changed and life is impermanent.

Helan Kuan's father, Helanxiang, was the nephew of Yuwen Taizu of Zhou Taizu, like the king of Shu, and later Zhou. He was called "the pro-dean party" in the Western Wei and later Zhou. Helan, like the Yuwen family, was the left arm and right arm of Yuwen family.

But after Yuwen Tai's death, the situation changed. Yuwen Tai's sons were very young and could not stand the scene at all. So when Yuwen Tai died, he instructed his nephew Yuwen Hu to protect his family and his cousin.

Yuchi Jiong, He Lanxiang and others were the cousins ​​of Yuwen Tai and his nephews. In order to protect the foundation of his uncle's family, they surrounded Yuwen Hu and fought against those eager heroes.

Yuwen Hu, who became the King of Jin, would inevitably centralize power in order to deal with political enemies, which means that the emperor was undermined, and sooner or later, the emperor would have to retain power. Yuwen Hu, who had countless enemies, would not let go, so the confrontation between the King of Jin and the Emperor became a tragedy.

After the King of Jin killed two cousins ​​one after another, he was killed by his third cousin Yuwen Yong.

So, will the nephew of King Yuwen Hu of Jin, now Qi, Yuwen Liang, have the same end?

When the King of Jin was in great power, several young people from the Helan family had close contacts with the sons and nephews of the King of Jin, including Yuwen Liang.

He Lankuan was still young at that time, and Chengri followed several brothers and the sons and nephews of the King of Jin to hunt. He was quite familiar with Yu Wen Liang, who was older than him, and was often the other party's "little tail".

Since Yuwen Tai's death, more than thirty years of storm, the King of Jin Yuwen who guarded the Yuwen family has died, and the King of Shu Yuchi Jiong who guarded the Yuwen family has died. The King of Shu Yuchi Dun who chose another route has also died. The rest is King of Qi Yuwen Liang who is also supporting the Yuwen family.

King Qi and the Emperor are just repeating the stories of King Jin and King Shu, King Shu and the Emperor. Will Yuwen Liang end up like his uncle or replace him?

This problem is why Helankuan did not turn to his old friend Yuwen Liang.

The struggle between the King of Jin and the Emperor Party at that time hurt many Yuan Cong's old friends. Just as the Duke of Sui Guo Yang Zhong said, "It is difficult for two aunts to be married." The internal strife in Yuwen made many people at a loss, so Helankuan did not want to participate in this kind of destruction anymore.

Yuwen Hu chose to deceive himself and ended up with the death of his whole family. Later, Yuchi Jiong was the same. However, he died before the conflict broke out. The successor Shu King Yuchi Dun was very straightforward and chose to break up.

Helankuan felt that Yuwen Liang would either follow the old path of his uncle and end up with the same fate, or choose to replace him like Yuchi Dun. Anyway, he would replace him. So he was already in the Yuchi camp, so why did he want to join Yuwen Liang?

After joining the Chang'an court, the conflict between Yuwen Liang and the emperor will break out sooner or later. At that time, he will have to choose sides in the camps of both sides like his father did back then. Once he chooses the wrong side, the consequences will be very serious.

Therefore, it is better to be in the Yuchi camp, but now that Yuchi Dun is dead, things have changed.

Both Yuwen Liang's sons are excellent, especially the successor Erlang Yuwen Wen, who is very good at fighting. It is precisely because of this Yuwen Erlang that the game of chess carefully planned by Yuchi Dun was upside down.

Even Yuchi Dun himself was seriously injured when he led his troops to besiege Yuwen Wen.

Yuchi Dun was gone, and the situation in the Yecheng court was a little bad. At this critical moment, it was not Yuchi Shun who succeeded the throne of Shu, but a little guy. Helankuan felt that the concubine of Shu was too biased and had reached the point of not prioritizing the matter.

As a result, the situation really changed.

Before he knew it, Helankuan finished the meal. Shortly after the servant removed the food case, he came in to report that someone had sent a letter.

"Letter? Who sent the sender?"

"The Lord Hui, that man said he was an 'old friend'."

He Lankuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Hmm? Where is the person?"

"Master Huilang, this person is in a corner outside the tent and will not be seen by others."

At this time, "old friends" send someone to deliver letters, and the timing is very delicate. Helankuan pondered for a moment and said, "Take him in."

After a while, the attendant brought a young man in. The man took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Helankuan through the attendant.

He Lankuan opened the envelope and pulled out the letter paper, and found that it was a piece of white paper. He looked at the visitor suspiciously. The visitor took the paper and shook it beside the flames of the oil lamp. Many faint words appeared on the white paper.

Good means.

Helankuan sighed in his heart, took the letter again, looked at it in the light, and his eyes narrowed.

The first sentence in the letter was raised: "The master is above, my younger brother Wind...'
