Outside the camp, he and the guards reported their home. The guards did not dare to neglect and trotted into the camp to report.


    Soon, a group of more than ten people appeared in Jiang Fan''s sight and hurried out of the camp.


    The dress of the leader surprised Jiang Fan.


    Because different from more than a dozen other generals dressed and wearing armor, the man who walked in front was a Confucian robe.


    The body looks not great. Although there is no thin appearance that the wind wants to fall, it is still slightly thin.


    No matter how you look at it, it doesn''t look like a leading general. On the contrary, it is more in line with the image of a scholar.


    "But Jiangcheng guards face to face? What''s the official''s letter? I''m polite to Jiangcheng."


    He led a dozen people straight to the front of Jiang Fan. The general dressed as a scholar bowed with a smile on his face.


    The reason why he claims to be an official is that the official rank of Heyang city guard is higher than that of other cities.


    Although he is a general and his military rank is the same as that of the city guard of Heyang, in the Taiping era, the military officer was naturally the first rank than the civil official, so there was no problem for the junior officer to claim to be a civil servant.


    "What... General? Your appearance is really beyond my expectation."


    Jiang Fan didn''t hide his surprise and told the truth.


    "Let the city guard laugh. I''m not used to wearing armor. I''d better wear a long shirt. Go and talk in my camp? Standing at the gate of this camp, it seems that we don''t know how to treat guests."


    He said, turning sideways and making a gesture of invitation.


    Jiang Fan smiled and nodded. With tie Niu and Lin Wanqing, accompanied by he Wenshu and his party, he entered the Chinese army camp.


    It is estimated that it is almost impossible to see a girl in the military camp, not to mention a beautiful girl like Lin Wanqing, so Lin Wanqing really attracted a lot of attention along the way.


    He quickly entered the camp. After the three of Jiang Fan sat down, he asked the guard to make tea for the three. Then he said straight to the point: "Lord Chengshou, we already know where you are coming. We soldiers are not used to those winding things, so I''ll tell you the truth. If I offend you, I hope Lord Chengshou will forgive me."


    "General he, but it doesn''t matter."


    Jiang Fan nodded.


    "Lord Chengshou, the Yuwen family suddenly rebelled. This is something that everyone didn''t expect. The subsequent impact is that in recent days, there are many aristocratic families who raise troops to stand on their own and separate themselves into kings. Our army was in an awkward situation because of the siege of King Wu''s residence. Now, we don''t know what to do."


    He wen sighed and then said, "strictly speaking, we are loyal to your majesty, but Gu Yan asked us to besiege King Wu''s house with his Majesty''s secret order. Later, he found that it was only Gu Yan''s private decision. If there was no rebellion of the Yuwen family, even our generals who led the troops would follow Gu Yan and go back to Jinling for trial."


    "We are not afraid of the jokes of the river city. Although we are not afraid of death, we don''t want to die for such an inexplicable reason. In this situation, we should not only consider ourselves, but also find a way out for our brothers."


    "Then, Chengshou, do you think... What can attract us in Heyang city itself? Although no one has contacted us yet, the situation is chaotic everywhere for the time being. The first task of all aristocratic families is to stabilize themselves."


    "But once they have completed the stabilization of their own territory, the next thing to do is undoubtedly to obtain other people''s territory as much as possible. At that time, people will naturally think of our team. Compared with those aristocratic family leaders... Chengshou adult, with all due respect, you really don''t attract us."


    Listening to what he Wenshu said, Jiang Fan nodded in agreement: "General he is right. From your point of view, it seems that this is the case. Although I am the guard of Heyang city and actually control the whole Heyang, I seem to be weak. Once the troubled times open, Heyang city... Will become a piece of fat fresh meat and attract countless hungry wolves around."


    He wen frowned and said, "what? Listen to the meaning of jiangchengshou... Isn''t this the true situation?"


    "If you don''t know much about Heyang, that''s the case. But if you know more about Heyang, you will understand... The real situation is not so simple. General he doesn''t want to know. Our street patrol Yamen in Heyang has even more powerful combat power than the army, especially the 60 captors, each of whom is an expert of more than seven grades."


    Jiang Fan said with a smile.


    Seeing that he wanted to interrupt, he stretched out his hand to stop and continued: "listen to me. General he should have heard about the changes in Heyang city. Although your army has not been stationed here for a long time, general he should have visited Heyang city and know what''s special about Heyang city compared with other cities."


    "The people of Heyang have great recognition and support for me. This is the bottom line. I have a group of powerful warriors under my command. As the most powerful city in the north, Heyang City naturally has its special advantages, which is due to its geographical advantage. And during this time, general he should know that we have formed a militia team. How about the combat effectiveness of this militia team... I can guarantee that, No worse than general he''s men. "


    As soon as the voice fell, Jiang Fan saw the faces of more than a dozen generals in the camp, all showing disdain and doubt.


    Obviously, I don''t believe Jiang Fan''s statement that the combat effectiveness of the militia can be compared with them.


    "Chengshou adult, although I want to believe you, I can hardly doubt what you said. Moreover, the superiority of Heyang city is not the advantage of Chengshou adult, but the disadvantage of Chengshou adult. Unless Chengshou adult can prove that you have enough strength to defend Heyang in troubled times."


    He Wenshu said in a deep voice.


    "In fact, it''s not difficult to prove what I said. General he himself knows the situation in Heyang. As for the combat effectiveness of the militia... It''s also easy to verify. As long as general he selects a group of elite soldiers and carries out a military exercise with the same number of militia as ours, the result will be clear at a glance."


    Jiang Fan said with a smile.


    He Wenshu couldn''t help falling into meditation.


    Pondering for a moment, he nodded slowly: "It''s a way. Let''s make an appointment to perform martial arts according to the opinion of the city guard. If the militia team is really as the city guard said and more elite than my soldiers, there''s no problem for us to join Heyang city. But before that, the city guard may have another more important thing to solve."


    "What?"


    "I just got the news that Liu Wenguang, the governor of Handong County, has sent his son and led a group of people to Heyang. The purpose... Is naturally to take over the control of the whole Heyang. Therefore, if the city guard wants to prove that he has the ability to stand in this troubled world, first of all... He must solve the threat of Liu Wenguang."
