Wei and Jin Cooks

Yuan Li rushed to Xinping City quickly. Before he entered the city, he discovered something was wrong. There were many remnant soldiers in the wild and they were queuing up to be collected.

 He reined in his horse, looked around, and told his soldiers, "Go and ask."

There was no need to go there personally, someone soon discovered them, and immediately a group of soldiers ran over, pointed their guns at them, and asked suspiciously: "Who are you?"

Yuan Lidao said: "We are Han people, coming from Luoyang to do business."

“Doing business? Just you guys? Where are the goods?”

Yuan Li said: "We are exploring the road. The caravan is behind. It is a large caravan. I wonder what happened here. Why are there so many people?"

The soldier didn't answer him and asked him for directions.

Yuan Li showed him the backup road.

 As the leader of ANBU, he has various ways to lead.

The soldier carefully identified him and saw that he was a large merchant who traveled from various places. His face looked better. He waved his hand and the people behind him put away their guns.

"Nothing to do, we welcome those who come to do business, go to the city."

Yuan Li dismounted, took out a money bag from his arms and stuffed it into the hands of the soldiers, and whispered: "Please tell me something, sir. Our caravan is large, and the goods we carry are not very expensive, but they are heavy. I Look, this is a war, if this happens..."

“Don’t worry, the battle is over. We have won in Xinping City and there will be no more wars. If you have anything, just send it over. Our general is happy and maybe we can make things right for you.”

The rapid prosperity of Xinping City was partly due to Zhao Hanzhang's support. No matter where Wu Sheng's caravan went, he always came to Xinping City twice a year. This attracted nearby herdsmen and farmers to come to Xinping City. Pingcheng Transaction.

The soldiers did not understand economics, but they intuitively knew that the more businessmen who came, the easier life would be in Xinping City, so they welcomed every businessman who came here, especially Han businessmen.

Yuan Li entered Xinping City in this way.

As soon as I met the secret police in Xinping City, I found out that Tuoba Yilu led a large army to capture Tuoba Liuxiu, but he lost the battle as soon as possible.

Ancha said in a low voice: "We followed the army, and Tuoba Yilu was at the rear. Until the army was defeated, neither father nor son saw the enemy."

Yuan Li: "...Tuoba Yilu was defeated like this?"

 How come fighting is like child's play?

The secret observer also felt that "Tuoba Yilu did not send a vanguard to explore the road, but directly pressed the army over. He was ambushed halfway across the river. After forcibly crossing the river, he only made some repairs and continued to move forward. He did not set up camp or reorganize, nor did he deploy troops. Reinforcements, he seems very confident in defeating Tuoba Sixth Cultivator."

Yuan Li: If he didn’t have confidence, he wouldn’t send troops.

Yuan Li asked: "Where is Tuoba Yilu?"

"Escaped. Tuoba Liuxiu sent a large number of people to guard the pass and cut off the passage from Xinping City to Pingcheng. He should still be near Xinping City at this time. We have also sent people from various places to investigate. There is no news yet. .”

Yuan Li said: "Send everyone out. We must find him. We must not let him return to Pingcheng. Where is Tuoba Pu Sugen?"

“He was stationed at the border of Bingzhou. When Tuoba Yilu transferred troops to Bingzhou, he transferred him back and left him at the border.”

Yuan Li sneered, "If you want to take advantage of others' danger, it depends on whether the father and son have the ability. Your Majesty is right. Tuoba Sixth Cultivation should be established on behalf of the country, whether it is Tuoba Yilu or Tuoba Pu Sugen." suitable."

As for Tuoba Biyan, he is just a wine bag and rice bag, let alone in Zhao Hanzhang’s eyes

Yuan Li continued to ask, "Where is Wei Xiong?" He secretly observed: "After the first ambush, Wei Xiong guarded the left wing. During the second ambush, he led his men directly away from the brigade, and all the left wing troops were taken away by him. There is no news now. Tuoba Sixth Cultivator is afraid of being deceived, so he has been sending people to search and pursue him."

Yuan Li was satisfied, "Don't worry about the left wing. The top priority is to find Tuoba Yilu. If he escapes, he can come back soon with troops."

 Tuoba Yilu only brought soldiers and horses from Pingcheng during this expedition. In addition to Pingcheng, he also had troops at the border of Bingzhou, Shengle City and other places, especially along the Bingzhou line. He put 100,000 people there.

 Once he escapes, he can immediately start again with an army.

Tuoba Liuxiu obviously knew this, and ordered all the ministries to send orders to everyone. If anyone can find Tuoba Yilu, he will be rewarded with a reward of one hundred taels, one hundred cattle, and one thousand sheep.

This reward order and Tuoba Yilu's portrait were sent to the grasslands and villages under Xinping City at the speed of horses.

 Going down with them was the search party.

In a remote village, a dilapidated thatched house stood on the edge of the village. Half of the low wall collapsed, and the other half was still standing there.

There were a lot of weeds and roots drying in the yard. A peasant woman folded the portrait she had just received in half, took out a piece of clothing, stretched out the broken back, made a big hole, and tried to put the paper in it. .

She knew that this paper could not be washed or even exposed to rain, but she really had nothing to mend, and she had grabbed this paper yesterday.

She won't wash them after sewing them, and won't wear them even if it rains. This way, she can wear them for a long time. This relatively complete set of clothes can be washed once, and she can wear them less often and wear them out more slowly. It can also be worn in winter.

The peasant woman took a needle and thread and sewed it carefully. Halfway through the sewing, the door creaked. She looked up and saw a middle-aged man with disheveled hair and a beard appearing at the door.

The peasant woman shrank in fear, stood up and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

The man quickly said: "Sister-in-law, don't be afraid. I am a merchant passing by. I encountered bandits and got lost from my family, so I came to ask for a bowl of water."

Upon hearing this, the peasant woman put down the clothes in her hands and stepped forward to take a closer look at him. She saw that he had no weapons in his hands and his coat looked dirty and stained with blood. She reluctantly believed him and invited him in. She poured him water and asked Said: "Where did you meet the bandits?"

The man took the bowl and drank it up. He wanted to drink more and said casually: "There are horse thieves twenty or thirty miles away from here."

The peasant woman's hands trembled slightly and she poured him another bowl of water. After quietly sizing him up, she turned around and fetched a basin of water. "There is blood on the guest's body. Please wash your hands and face first. Are there any injuries? I'm at home." Collecting some herbs may be able to stop the bleeding."

 When the man heard this, he immediately responded.

He is indeed injured, although it is not serious, but the weather is hot at this time, and he is afraid that it will worsen. It would be best to have medicine.

 He rolled up his sleeves, washed his face and hands, and handed the veil to the woman.

After seeing his face, the woman lowered her eyes and took it. She wrung out the handkerchief and hung it on the shelf. She led him to the yard to look at the herbs. "These are the herbs I picked myself. Please take a look and see if they are useful." of?"

Tuoba Yilu naturally understood some common medicines used for trauma, so he picked them on the dustpan and asked with disgust, "Are these the only medicines?"

"It is not easy to collect these kinds of medicinal materials. The precious medicinal materials belong to the king. If we dare to collect them, we will be robbing the king. If we are to be held accountable, we can only collect such worthless medicinal materials."

Tuoba Yilu stopped talking. He selected two kinds of herbs and asked the woman to crush them and apply them to his wounds.

 Get up late, get up late
