They knew very well that His Highness Taisun could allow Zhu Yunwen to come out alone, which to a certain extent explained a lot of problems.

Perhaps, this was His Highness Taisun's complete disarming of Zhu Yunwen.

"In the area of ​​Piantou Pass and Laoyingbao, Liu Zongsheng and others are most likely to go near Piantou Pass to find loopholes in the border and sneak out of the Great Wall."

At this time, Tian Mai had already taken out a copy of Shanxi Dao Kanyu from his arms and pointed it at the location of Piantou Pass.

In the entire northwestern Shanxi area, no Great Wall was built on the east and west sides of the Piantou Pass.

The Laoying Fort is located at the junction of Taiyuan Prefecture and Datong Prefecture. There are many border forts. You can imagine how difficult it is to cross the Great Wall from here.

Sun Cheng looked at Kan Yu, nodded and affirmed: "Only the first line of Piantou Pass. When the Yellow River thaws, you can directly cross it into the Hetao area, continue northward, cross the Yellow River again, and completely enter the grassland. At that time, Liu Zongsheng and other absconding rebels will

Thieves, it’s really as if the sky is high and the birds can fly.”

"We are half a day behind Liu Zongsheng and others. When we arrive at the Piantou Pass, will we lend troops to pursue them together?"

Tian Mai muttered in a low voice and glanced at Zhu Yunwen.

Zhu Yunwen's eyes swayed, and he couldn't help but think of the gold medal he placed close to his body and the document stamped with the seal of the great grandson of the Ming Dynasty Emperor.

It was something Brother Xiu gave to him when he was leaving from Taiyuan City. He still clearly remembered the scene at that time, and Brother Xiu's face was full of solemnity.

He believed that he did not need to worry too much about his own safety when he was operating within the Shanxi Province. However, once he left the border and entered the grassland, and Liu Zongsheng was bound to be protected by the White Lotus Sect, the risks he would face alone would double.

And with that gold medal and documents, you can mobilize border troops of less than a thousand people at any border to accompany you north to the grassland.

only.

He was unwilling to borrow Brother Xi's help to avenge himself.

Zhu Yun hummed and said, "Let's act accordingly. Since the incident happened in Taiyuan Prefecture, it should be settled in Taiyuan Prefecture."

Sun Cheng took down a package from his horse.

He took out a few pieces of dried meat and handed the kettle to Zhu Yunwen first.

"Let's drink some water first, and then eat something. Next, we have to rush to Wuzhaibao and have a hot meal, and then we have to rush all the way to Piantou Pass."

Time is tight and they cannot allow them to take too much rest.

Zhu Yunwen and Tian Mai didn't say much. They silently took the dried meat handed out by Sun Cheng, drank two bottles of water, and chewed the tasteless dried meat silently and hard.

A few moments.

In the increasingly heavy wind and snow, Zhu Yunwen and the others mounted their horses silently.

Due to the heavy wind and snow, the war horses did not move very fast, but they were able to save the physical strength of the three of them in turn.

Zhu Yunwen and the others, who were already near Wuzhaibao, were only about 150 miles away from Piantou Pass. In the past, it would only take about two days to get there if they used their speed.

It's just that in the current windy and snowy weather, the official road is blocked by snow.

The three of them walked through the rolling hills of northwest Shanxi for nearly four days before arriving at the Piantou Pass just after noon.

Along the way, what the three of them saw was just as they expected that day.

The entire northwestern Shanxi was in chaos.

The Ming army stationed in northwest Shanxi went crazy in the heavy snow to hunt down and eliminate the rebellious Japanese bandits.

Some forts were occupied by Japanese pirates, and some were recaptured by the Ming army.

You have to make a detour at the previous station, but you may also be able to get supplies at the next station.

Zhu Yunwen, who originally did not want to use the gold medal and documents in his arms, faced the current situation in northwest Shanxi and had to make it public.

"Sir, the detention center is ahead. There has been a lot of chaos these days. Everyone here is holding their breath, as if they can't finish killing the Japanese bandits.

The prison is safe, and there is food and drink. The subordinates dare not ask anything about the young master and others, but if the young master and others want to cross the river, they must be careful. The outside is better than the inside, and there is no telling when you will encounter someone hungry and green-eyed.

The wolf cub."

The patrolmen wandering outside the Piantou Pass found Zhu Yunwen and the others. After checking their identities, they led the three of them to the front of the pass, not forgetting to give a reminder before leaving.

Zhu Yunwen nodded.

The hungry wolf cubs with green eyes are not talking about the wolves wandering on the grassland, but the Tatars.

"It's time to work."

Zhu Yunwen replied.

Sun Cheng, who was beside him, rolled his eyes, took out a piece of silver from his arms as usual, and threw it to the officers and soldiers over there.

The officers and soldiers borrowed the silver with both hands, and their faces showed a hint of joy.

"Then I wish the young master that his affairs can be settled smoothly. When the young master comes back from outside, the young master will warm the wine for him at the lockup."

After that, the officer and soldier rode south and disappeared into the wind and snow.

After the officers and soldiers left, Zhu Yunwen turned back and looked at the Biantou Pass in front of him, which had the characteristics of a border pass.

The entire Piantou Pass is located on a rare mountain stream and flat land among the Zongheng Mountains in northwest Shanxi.

It is only twenty miles away from the Yellow River.

At this time, the three of them drove their horses to the front of the pass, which naturally attracted the attention of the defenders on the wall of the pass.

soon.

Then a group of border troops rode out from behind the city gate and began to spread out from a distance, surrounding Zhu Yunwen and the other three.

Sun Cheng and Tian Mai both turned to look at Zhu Yunwen, their meaning was obvious.

Zhu Yunwen sighed helplessly.

Put your hands into your arms.
