Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 761 Lin Feng’s former guard

Bas Mu shook his head. "I can't come back for the time being. The clan has been split into two parts, and the imperial court is trying to reclaim the lost territory. They can't take care of Zhenxi for the time being."

Lin Feng frowned and asked, "Isn't the Zhenxi Prefecture Army responsible for suppressing bandits?"

"Haha, Zhenxi Prefecture is vast, and the troops there are not enough, brother. If you want to go on the trade route, you have to organize your own forces. Hehe, brother, I hired a master who used to be Lin Feng's bodyguard."

Lin Feng thought about it for a long time but couldn't remember who it was.

He remembered all the people who served as his guards, from leaders to soldiers. This was also Lin Feng's requirement for his generals.

The soldiers who had served as his bodyguards in the past would generally be promoted after a long time, and it was impossible for them to retire and become bodyguards for others.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng gave a thumbs up.

"Brother is really amazing. He can even invite such a master. Lin is lucky to have met a noble man."

"You're welcome. I've walked this route from Dingyuan to Zhenxi countless times. Most bandits don't require physical effort. Just give them some money and they'll be fined. Very few of them would risk their lives. Life is hard, so there's no need to risk your life."

Bass Mu is very familiar with the situation here.

Gui Juan had a smile on his face.

"Brother Ba, can you let me see your guards?"

"Oh, you mean the expert who served as Lin Feng's bodyguard?"

"Exactly. I have also admired Lin Feng for a long time and really want to meet him."

Bass Mu asked curiously.

"If you want to see Lin Feng, you have to go to Jingdu City. Why are you coming to Zhenxi?"

"I've been there. I heard that Lin Feng came to Zhenxi."

"When? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Bass Mu frowned and pondered.

Lin Feng inadvertently exchanged glances with Hong Xiao.

They all felt that there was something wrong with Gui Juan and that he was definitely targeting them.

Gui Juan laughed heartily: "It's just hearsay. We brothers have nothing else to do anyway, so we followed him to Zhenxi to take a look."

Bass Mu nodded and shouted to a follower.

"Go and invite Chief Gan over for a drink."

Lin Feng also wanted to see who this master who had worked with him was.

Not long after, a tall and strong man strode over.

With the help of the firelight, Lin Feng looked at the other party carefully, thinking about his guards in his mind.

I have indeed never seen this person.

The tall man walked up to Bass Mu.

"Is there something wrong with the master?"

Bass Mu waved his hand: "A few friends want to meet you and buy you a drink."

The tall man glanced at everyone and bowed.

"Gan Shisan, I have been walking this path for many years, please give me some guidance."

Several people also nodded and greeted with a smile.

Gui Juan saw Gan Shisan sitting on the ground and asked hurriedly.

"I heard that Brother Gan once served as a bodyguard for Lin Feng. Is that true?"

Gan Shisan nodded solemnly and said proudly.

"I followed the General Zhenxi to fight against the Tartars, but was later injured and retired home."

"Then you are naturally very familiar with Lin Feng?"

Gan Shisan glanced at Gui Juan.

"I wonder what you want to ask, brother?"

"Haha, no, no, I just admire Lin Feng's name and want to get to know him."

Gan Shisan said disdainfully.

"General Lin Feng of Zhenxi is now the Duke of Jingguo and the commander of the imperial guards. How can we know him? Brothers, you should have a drink."

Gui Juan laughed dryly twice: "Haha, that's right, that's right."

Lin Feng remained silent. He felt that Gan Shisan might have been a member of the Zhenxi Army, so it was reasonable for him to retire due to injury.

I just don’t know whether he knows himself or not.

Just at this moment, Basmu raised his hand and pointed at Lin Feng.

"Brother Lin wants to do timber business, so I'm afraid he'll have to go this way often. Chief Gan, please take good care of him."

Gan Shisan quickly bowed to Lin Feng.

"This is my job, so please, Brother Lin, take care of my business."

Lin Feng also bowed and smiled, "Of course, of course I'll have to trouble Brother Gan when the time comes."

When the two met, Gan Shisan's expression was natural, without any abnormality.

Obviously, Gan Shisan either didn't know Lin Feng or didn't recognize Lin Feng.

Unless someone is very familiar with him, no one would have thought that Lin Feng would appear in such a place in this way.

The few of them drank and ate meat, having a great time.

Gui Juan still didn't give up and continued asking in between eating and drinking.

"I heard that Lin Feng's hometown is Zhenxi, but is it true?"

Gan Shisan nodded and replied, "That's right. General Lin's hometown is in Lingdouzi Castle, which is also where the master is going this time."

Bass Mu smiled and said, "We are just small traders, so we have nothing to do with them. We just need to do our business honestly."

At this time, the porcelain doll Wu Mei, who was full and satisfied, suddenly spoke.

"Is Lin Feng very...powerful?"

This time, the number of words spoken was large, and Lin Feng could understand that this accent was not a mainstream accent and did not belong to any major local accent.

Gui Juan patted Wu Mei's shoulder.

"Go back to sleep when you're full. Don't interrupt me if there's nothing to do."

Wu Mei glared at Gui Juan angrily, stood up, dragged her wide robe, and walked towards the carriage.

Hong Xiao watched the little girl out of the corner of her eye.

Gui Juan explained, "I've never been very good with words since I was a child. I'm sorry to bother you all."

Lin Feng felt that it was not a problem of speech, but a problem of not being familiar with the common language.

This must be his opponent, a strange person who came from nowhere.

If you want to deal with me, you will do anything you can.

This little girl is no ordinary person. From her aura, one can tell that she is definitely not weak.

Gui Juan was deliberately covering up, while Wu Mei was very relaxed and didn't care about them at all.

Now that he was sure that these two people were coming to deal with him, Lin Feng was thinking about how to strike first.

There are more than just these two people in this caravan. There must be other experts hiding in it. We have to find out who they are and get rid of them all at once.

Lin Feng was somewhat proud of himself. This move of his allowed him to hide in the dark, exposing the guys who came to hunt him in the open, making them easier to deal with.

Through conversation, Lin Feng discovered that Basmu's business was very big.

He bought his horses from the Kuro tribe's horse farm and his own ranch in the city of Dadur, which was located within the borders of Tiezhen.

We have cooperation with two large ranches.

The timber is purchased from the border town, where the timber is all rare species brought from Yinzhou in Western Xia.

This was also the foundation laid by Lin Feng when he led his army.

The three of them drank until midnight before they went their separate ways.

Hongxiao and Xiaodong had already gone to sleep in the carriage. Lin Feng found a place near the carriage, wrapped himself in a blanket, and fell asleep.

It turns out that the conditions during marching and fighting were much worse than this. Camping and sleeping like this was no big deal for him.

Having drunk some wine, Lin Feng fell asleep quickly.

He didn't know how long he slept, but suddenly, he felt someone poking his waist.

Just as he was about to turn over, someone held him down.

Then, a familiar voice sounded beside my ear.

"General, don't move, something's happening."
