"I'll help you."

"Help me?" The young nun frowned in confusion at Vanna's words, and only then did she suddenly notice some details in the other woman's equipment.

It was indeed the equipment and markings of the Storm Church, but not any standard issue she was familiar with, and she had never...

"Young Master, please get up quickly, it's our turn to patrol."

"Where am I?"

Qin Hu groggily sat up, feeling a chill on his body and the wind howling outside, which immediately made him feel strange.

"Oh, Young Master, why are you so confused? We're in the military camp. It's our turn to stand guard at this hour. If we don't get up, we'll be punished by military law. Even the old Marquis can't protect you now."

"What?"

Qin Hu opened his eyes and saw that he was in a tent, and in front of him was a soldier in leather armor.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to ask something, a splitting headache suddenly struck, and a huge stream of information rushed into his mind. After a few seconds, he realized that he had transmigrated.

He had transmigrated from a modern special forces soldier to a young Marquis also named Qin Hu, the leader of the seven notorious young masters of the capital!

And this era called the Da Yu Dynasty simply did not exist in history.

Qin Hu's ancestors were one of the four dukes and twenty-eight marquises who founded the Da Yu Dynasty. Three months ago, his father died of illness, and Qin Hu inherited the title, becoming the new Champion Marquis.

Qin Hu had been spoiled by his parents since he was a child. He didn't like to study or practice martial arts, but only to play, eat, drink, and be merry, running rampant in the capital.

When he grew up, his family wanted him to settle down, so they arranged a marriage for him. The woman was the eldest daughter of the Duke of Chen, named Chen Ruoli, a famous lady, beautiful and intelligent.

This Qin Hu was extremely vicious to others, but he was particularly obedient to this beautiful fiancée, treating her like a treasure.

But the problem happened with this childhood sweetheart, Miss Chen.

According to Qin Hu's memory, that day he took his fiancée to the palace to pay respects to the current Chang'an Princess. The princess and Chen Ruoli had been close friends since childhood, so she arranged a banquet.

But later, Qin Hu drank himself into a stupor. When he woke up, he was already in the inner guard's prison. He was told that he had molested the princess while drunk, with the intention of doing something improper.

Even more bizarre was that Chen Ruoli actually submitted a memorial impeaching her fiancé Qin Hu for seventy-two illegal acts, each with evidence.

Qin Hu felt as if he had been struck by lightning and couldn't believe his ears...

The imperial decree came down quickly. Considering Qin Hu's ancestors' merits, the death penalty was waived, but he could not escape punishment. He was sent to Youzhou to serve in the military, his title was retained, and his future performance would be observed.

But after arriving in Youzhou, he was quickly assigned to the front line – to be at the disposal of the vanguard.

After these things passed through Qin Hu's mind, he basically understood that this should be a trap.

Because the Duke of Chen had long wanted to break off the engagement with him.

The Qin family and the Chen family were originally a political marriage. Both families wanted to become stronger, but the later Qin Hu, apart from being a playboy, was almost useless. It could be said that he had disgraced the Champion Marquis's mansion.

It should be known that the Champion Marquises of previous generations were all heroic figures with unparalleled influence in the military, but in this generation, there was a good-for-nothing who had never been on the battlefield. When the old Marquis was alive, the Duke of Chen still gave him face, but when the old Marquis died, the Duke of Chen turned ruthless and staged a scene of breaking off the engagement at the mourning hall.

But Qin Hu deeply loved Chen Ruoli and refused to agree, while Chen Ruoli had long been disgusted with this evil young master.

Thus, a disaster descended!

As for the Chang'an Princess, it was even simpler. She was the cousin of Qin Hu's cousin. As long as Qin Hu died, the vast property of the Champion Marquis's mansion would naturally fall into the hands of this cousin.

These forces, each taking what they needed, colluded with each other and quickly united...

As expected, entering the Marquis's mansion is like entering the deep sea. There are really many people who want him dead.

"Qin An, do you think we can find a place to get out of the wind?"

Under the bright moonlight, the rough north wind carried a piercing whistle, sweeping across the empty wilderness, blowing the torches flickering, and cutting people's skin like countless flying knives.

"It's not possible, Young Master, we'll be punished by military law."

Qin Hu and Qin An, shrinking their heads and feet, ran out of the camp against the wind, running forward through the heavy snow.

The weak Qin An was accidentally overturned by the wind.

Two sentries who were changing shifts saw them come out, smiled at each other, and scooped up two handfuls of snow to extinguish the warming bonfire, and then crawled into the tent.

Damn it, even the soldiers have been bought off, trying to freeze me to death!

This is a very small camp, with about twenty tents, surrounded by carriages, and the outer perimeter doesn't even have chevaux-de-frise arranged. The surrounding terrain is flat and there is no danger to defend. It's clear that they don't plan to be stationed here for long.

According to Qin Hu's memory from his previous life, about two hundred people are stationed here. They are the vanguard camp of Li Qin, the General Conquering the North of the Yu Dynasty.

And the target of Li Qin's 20,000 troops this time is the Yu Dynasty's long-time enemy on the border, the Liaodong Kingdom.

"Cough, cough, Young Master, do you think we can go back alive?" Qin An curled up on the snow, his lips and face were blue, and he spoke weakly, as if he would die at any moment.

Qin Hu sighed in his heart. Qin An was purely implicated by him. If things continued to develop like this, they would definitely die.

Those who wanted him dead didn't kill him in the court, so they were using underhanded methods and beating him to death in the military camp.

But Qin Hu was definitely not someone who would sit still and wait for death. This was obviously a frame-up, and he couldn't let it go.

Life is an endless struggle for survival. Just wait, I will not only survive, but also kill my way back to the capital and settle the score with you.

"Qin An, how many silver notes did we bring when we left?"

"There are no silver notes anymore. I only have twenty taels of silver on me. The imperial decree said that we were sent to the army, and our family property was confiscated."

Qin An is only 16 years old this year. He is Qin Hu's personal servant, very thin, and has already been不堪折磨 (bùkān zhémó - exhausted by suffering). He looks like he only has one breath left.

[Author's note: This is the best app for reading aloud and listening to books at present, 野果 (yě guǒ - wild fruit), install the latest version at .yeguoyuedu]

In fact, Qin Hu is not much better. These days, the vanguard camp marches 30 li every day, and the work they do is to open roads through mountains, build bridges over water, chop firewood, boil water, dig ditches, carry water, and build camps.

And what will happen when these two delicate guys stay with hundreds of rough soldiers every day?

They will definitely do the hardest work, eat the worst food, be beaten the most, and suffer the most...

Qin Hu estimates that his predecessor may have been tortured to death.

It can be considered that he deserved it.

But now he has to bear this suffering, and if he can't bear it, he will die too.

"Give it to me."

Qin Hu has made up his mind. He must first find a way to save Qin An's life, and then think of other ways.

And to save his life is not difficult. The easiest way is to bribe. As the saying goes, money can make ghosts turn the millstone. Although this method is primitive, it always works.

But in this situation, he can't bribe high officials, because no one dares to get involved with him. Besides, he has no money.

So he thought of one person in his mind, Centurion Li Xiaokun.

That is, the current leader of the vanguard camp.
