Empress Wu, Di Gong? Luoshui was shocked

This is also the adjustment arrangement made by the eunuch supervisor He Wei after careful calculation.

From Anrong Posthouse to Yunzhou Military Town, it is only 200 miles away. Even if the 80 miles from Yunzhou Military Town to Desheng Fort are added, it is only a little 300 miles away.

And the deadline set by Huangfu Zhengshi is to meet him in Desheng Fort before February 17th...

There are still two days and one night left, only a little 300 miles of travel. In this way, the remaining time left for his cavalry is still sufficient and ample.

...

They are all soldiers who obey orders and stand up to march. They are also tense in their minds, and the string of strict military law and no delay is allowed.

When the clepsydra just pointed to the beginning of the evening, the Qianniu Beishen Liang Zanwu, Han Jialiu Lang Han Ying and other seven officers of the Left Qianniu Guard were already waiting at the door of the posthouse canteen.

At the right hour of the evening, a group of nine people, leading their horses, walked out quickly from the side door of the posthouse. Behind each person's horse, there was another spare war horse tied as usual.

Just as everyone was about to move the saddle and mount the horse, and then jump on the horse, whip it, and gallop, they heard a burst of rapid and dense horse hoof sounds from north to south on the official road in front of the gate of Anrong Posthouse.

The eight knights who heard the horse hoof sounds were all stunned.

The nine people looked at each other in confusion and focused their eyes on the direction where the horse hoof sounds came from.

It was already dusk, and in such a cold and bitter winter night, apart from the people of Wu Luling, who had strict orders from the Royal Guards and needed to strictly follow them, where else would there be knights who needed to rush on the night road in such a hurry? !

Under the flickering torch lights, the galloping horse team was getting closer and closer.

Suddenly, a heroic, majestic, yet somewhat dry and hoarse shouting sounded in the approaching horse team.

"Brothers on duty at the gate of Anrong Posthouse! I am a red-feathered urgent messenger from Yunzhou Military Town. I have urgent military affairs that need to be reported to General Cheng of Bingzhou Grand Military Governor's Office. Go quickly with the brothers and prepare sixteen horses for replacement, as well as dry food and water for the journey!"

The seven or eight postmen, servants, and soldiers on duty at the gate of Anrong Posthouse were also looking in the direction of the horse team when the sound of horse hooves came. They heard that the horse team was coming from Yunzhou Military Town. The red-feathered urgent messenger going to Bingzhou Grand Military Governor's Office had urgent military affairs and military information, which needed to be reported to Cheng Wuting, the chief of Bingzhou Grand Military Governor's Office and the general of the left guard, at 800 miles.

They were all officials of the Bingzhou Grand Military Governor's Office, and the clerks under their jurisdiction,Postmen, runners, and palace soldiers, and the palace soldiers on duty at Anrong Posthouse, were also serving palace soldiers under the command of the Yunzhou Military Town and Zhechong Duwei Mansion. They were even more aware of the severity of the Yunzhou Military Town's red feather envoys, who traveled 800 miles to present urgent military affairs and military information.

The two runners and postmen who dared not slack off almost ran into the posthouse without touching the ground.

One runner was rushing to prepare the horses for the dozen red feather envoys who were galloping in, while the other postman ran straight to the public pavilion where the postmaster was.

The remaining postmen, runners, and soldiers also took out more than a dozen water bags and bags full of dry food from the gatehouse, and quickly rushed towards the horse team approaching with the red feather envoy.

……

The eunuch supervisor stopped, looked around, listened, and was puzzled. The nine people, including the Qianniu Beishen Liang Zanwu, Liulang Han Ying, and others, just waited to hear that the people in the galloping horse team were the 800-mile urgent report from the Yunzhou Military Town Zhechou Duwei Mansion to the Bingzhou Grand Dudu Mansion to report urgent military affairs and military information. Almost at the same time, they were all shocked.

Although their team of nine people, including the temporary commander of the cavalry, the head of the Royal Internal Security Secret Service, and the eunuch Hewei, who is a powerful eunuch, knows very little about the secret itinerary of the entire cavalry.

In the cavalry of more than 100 people, the only people who have the right to know such top-secret matters are the chief envoy Huangfu Xia Nei Jieshi and the deputy envoy Shi Jing Nei Jieshi.

But it does not prevent the eunuch Hewei from learning from the strict order of the chief envoy Huangfu that the place where the nine of them will meet with the large group of people led by the chief envoy Huangfu is located in the Desheng Fort, 80 miles north of the city in the Yunzhou military town.

Just now, the nine of them heard from that rough soldier that the red-feathered messengers from the Yunzhou Military Town had urgent military affairs and military information, which needed to be reported to Cheng Wuting, the Chief of the Bingzhou Grand Military Governor's Office and the Left Guard General, at an urgent speed of 800 miles day and night.

But if you think about it, the carriage and horse team led by Huangfu Zhengshi should have arrived in Yunzhou at this moment according to the route and itinerary.

At this time, the Yunzhou Military Town had urgent military affairs and military information, which needed to be reported at an urgent speed of 800 miles...

For the safety of their superiors, colleagues, tribesmen, subordinates, and comrades, they could not help but focus their attention on the red-feathered messenger, the rough soldier who led the way.

It happened so fast,

In just a moment, a dozen red-feathered messengers, each riding two horses, had already arrived at the gate of Anrong Inn.

The noisy neighing of horses and shouting of people, the hurriedAmid the chaotic footsteps and the sound of horse hooves, the postmen and runners of the post station came forward, some leading horses, some passing water...

Several clerks and postmen with sharp eyes and quick minds brought warm and suitable drinking water, cloth towels to wipe sweat, and dry food such as salted vegetables, dried meat, and biscuits to the dozen red-feathered messengers...

Watching the red-feathered messengers wolfing down and munching on the dry food, the gluttons It seems that the experienced eunuch supervisor He Wei has already guessed the general reason: because these red feather envoys from Yunzhou Military Town must have encountered some particularly serious emergencies, so they rushed to Taiyuan Prefecture City in a very urgent and hasty situation, even without drinking water and dry food supplies, to report the urgent military affairs and military information of Yunzhou Military Town to General Cheng Wuting, the chief historian of Bingzhou Grand Commandery.

With the help of the bright lights of lanterns and torches in front of the posthouse, the eunuch supervisor He Wei could clearly see that the red feather envoy leading the team was a sturdy man with a beard and more than 30 years old.

From the identity mark of the military officer wearing armor, this heroic and brave red feather envoy is also a Zhiguo school lieutenant of the seventh rank.

If we calculate according to the military rank corresponding to Lieutenant Zhiguo, this rough, brave and sturdy man should be a powerful general in the Yunzhou Military Town.

What kind of urgent military affairs and military information is it that requires a real general in the seventh rank and Lieutenant Zhiguo to serve as the temporary commander of the Red Feather Express, and travel 800 miles in an emergency, day and night, and ride a horse to Taiyuan City, 600 miles away? !

The confusion in his heart is getting deeper and deeper. What is the purpose of the inner audience supervisor? He frowned slightly and thought so.

At this time, the bearded general in the middle town, who was eating biscuits with salted vegetables and dried mutton, accidentally looked up and saw a familiar face with a flattering smile among the group of soldiers and armored soldiers surrounding them.
