The Red Chamber: Daiyu's eldest sister is not easy to be

Chapter 232: Stopped in front of the camp
Because of this delay, Jiusi and her companions were able to distance themselves from the messengers in front, and there were no more misunderstandings afterwards, but many obstacles did arise.

The war between countries is not just a showdown on the battlefield. Reconnaissance, assassination and creating chaos in the rear, as well as business dealings between the various parties, are also part of the war.

Even though Jiusi and her companions acted low-key and did not show up, the disappearance of food and supplies in many places would definitely attract the attention of spies. As they followed the clues, Jiusi, who was supposed to stay in the capital, was now being targeted!

Fortunately, they didn't know that Jiusi had a space. Even if they knew that her appearance was unusual, they didn't think that the food and grass were with her. They just thought she was a diversion. After sending some people to deal with her, they went to track down the whereabouts of the food and grass.

It was probably them who did not expect that the emperor would not only dare to entrust the matter of food and fodder to Jiusi, but also did not expect that she would be sent to the border to fight.

Because in their minds, no matter how powerful Jiusi was, she was still a woman after all, and representing Da'an in the competition was already a favor from the emperor. They never thought that the emperor would make Jiusi an official in order to win the battle!

It was because of this inherent concept that they did not take Jiusi too seriously and missed the best opportunity to intercept. They also sent out many wrong messages, which led to their defeat on the battlefield.

On the way, Jiusi also sent a letter to Yiyue and received her reply.

It was also a coincidence that when Jiusi's letter was delivered, Yiyue had just left the border not long ago. As soon as he received her letter, he immediately turned his horse back to the border. While waiting for them to reunite, he also found out a lot of information.

In fact, according to Jiusi's opinion, January should have returned to Beijing earlier. After all, she only needed to escort Xue Baochai and the others to the border, but the border was in chaos!
Before they even left their own country, they encountered many robbery bandits. When they left their own country and reached the uninhabited area at the border, there were even more horse bandits and robbers.

There were even soldiers from other countries who wanted to make money and pretended to be bandits to rob them. There was no other way. Just in case, January could only escort them for a while longer, which is why they have been delayed until now.

This also shows how chaotic and dangerous the border is today, and those officers and soldiers who want to make money may not just want to make money, but more of a temptation.

Rather than saying that no one is in charge of that no-man's land at the border between countries, it is better to say that it is a tacit understanding among the monarchs of various countries not to cross the border.

No matter how chaotic the place was in the past, no soldiers or bandits would come out to rob. But now they are doing this, which is just to test Da'an's attitude.

If the soldiers at the border take care of it, then they will have reasons to find fault and take the opportunity to find an excuse to start a war. If they don't, then they will move closer step by step and find ways to expand their territory.

As soon as Jiusi received January's reply, she knew that the war was not far away, so she hurried on her way. When she met people who came to kill her, she dealt with them quickly and ruthlessly, no longer as casually as before.

According to her and the emperor's estimates, it would take at least a month to reach the border, including the time required to transport food and fodder. However, she arrived in less than half a month.

Being fast has its advantages, but it also has its troubles. The good thing is that she can strike first before the enemy can react, but the trouble is that without anyone to lead the way, she can't even enter the military camp.

Before she and Eryue even got close to the military camp, they were stopped by a team of patrolling armored soldiers.

The leading general looked them up and down, frowned and asked, "Who are you and why are you here? Don't you know that the military camp is an important place and no one is allowed to approach?" Jiusi heard this and was about to take the imperial edict with her sleeves, but the soldiers pointed their weapons at her and stared at her with unfriendly expressions, "Don't move, what do you want to do?"

Seeing this, Er Yue's face immediately turned cold: "Are you going too far? Not to mention that my master came here on orders, even if it was someone else, they wouldn't act like this. I advise you to quickly put your weapons away, otherwise don't blame me for being rude to you."

When those people heard what they said, their faces became even uglier. Not only did they not retract their weapons, they even moved forward a little.

Seeing this, Er Yue glanced at Jiusi, and when Jiusi nodded, he kicked off with both feet and flew up. Then, with his hands on the horse's back, he gave a spinning kick and kicked the man away.

Because her speed was so fast, those people were still unable to react until they fell to the ground!

The leading young player was not kicked away because he did not gather around, but he still could not escape being beaten by Eryue.

As soon as he raised his spear to attack Eryue, Eryue took advantage of the situation to snatch the spear away and knocked him down.

Seeing that he couldn't get up because of Er Yue's spear, Jiu Si got off his horse, slowly took out the imperial edict, and spread it out in front of him: "Look carefully at what is written on it, don't try to fight with others at every turn. If I really want to do something, you guys will be dealt with by me before you even get close to me, understand?"

The young general was already feeling ashamed and angry for being knocked down by a woman, and now after seeing the imperial edict and learning that she was the woman sent by the emperor, he became even more dissatisfied.

Ever since the imperial edict was issued, word had spread throughout the army that this woman, who said she was here to help, was actually sent by the emperor to seize power and cause trouble because the emperor didn't trust the generals. Even though the general told everyone how powerful this woman was, no one believed it. Therefore, they were all very dissatisfied with the upcoming female general.

Those who were skilled in martial arts even planned to intimidate the other party, but they did not expect that she would come so quickly, and even the maidservant who accompanied her was so skilled.

But even though he knew the other party was powerful, he was still full of indignation, and his tone of voice was even more unfriendly: "So you are the woman sent by the emperor, humph, don't think that you can run rampant in the army just because you have some skills and the emperor's support. There are many capable people in the army, and we won't fall for your tricks.

You want to seize our general's power and make us obey you? Dream on!"

When Jiusi heard his words, he subconsciously frowned and said unhappily: "Who told you that I came here to seize power? I was just ordered to help. I am not interested in your general's exhausting work.

I don't want to do this job in the first place, and now with you idiots who just follow the crowd, I have even less interest in it."

The young general was quite happy to hear her say that she was not here to seize power, and even wanted to apologize to her. However, before he could smile, she called him an idiot and he got angry.

He was not as skilled as her maid, but he was no ordinary man either. He had climbed to this position at such a young age, and he had fought for it. How could he tolerate being humiliated by her like this?
