People really don't want to work overtime in Daxia

Chapter 39

Yu Qing led people to a small building near the north gate, and there was a "dong dong dong" knock on the door.

"The King of Heaven and Earth Tiger."

"Chicken stew with mushrooms."

After a while, there was a "creak" sound as the door opened a small gap, Yu Qing and the others walked in sideways, and then the door was tightly closed again.

"General!"

"The general is here!"

Seeing Yu Qing come in, the soldiers sitting on the ground stood up one after another, and Li Shu and Shen Guan arrived early.

"Have all the brothers come back?" Yu Qing could only ask as the room was dark without lights.

Shen Guan said without hesitation, "After the agreed time, those who didn't come back probably only have about a hundred or so people gathered now."

Upon hearing this number, Yu Qing felt like the world was spinning. If his estimate was correct, there were probably more than a thousand people when they fled in all directions during the day, but now there were only more than a hundred people left.

"Brother, what should we do?" Li Shu asked directly.

"Now is the darkest time of night, and people will doze off at this time." Yu Qing said with a gleam in his eyes, "Let's take advantage of this time to break out from the north gate!"

"North Gate?" Everyone was shocked when the words came out.

Shen Guan also couldn't figure it out, and asked suspiciously, "Brother, don't we break out from the south gate and run to the imperial capital?"

Yu Qing shook his head and said, "If you want to go to the imperial capital, you have to go through the south gate, there must be heavy guards, even if we go back and lose the north gate of the capital, we won't end well, but we do the opposite and run through the north gate to gain a chance of survival. "

"Then where are we going?" Shen Guan asked everyone's doubts. You must know that there are enemies in the north, and you will be surrounded if you go there.

"Take one step at a time!" Yu Qing looked at the map with the help of a weak oil lamp and said, "As long as you leave Dubeiguan, there are small villages, woods and mountains. There are many places for us to hide."

It's getting late, people are not waking up, roosters are not crowing, and dogs are not noisy.Yu Qing led a group of people to the north gate in the dark.

A few steps away from the wall of the north gate is a burning torch, and there are several large fires crackling and burning at the gate.

Goryeo soldiers curled up and slept all along the city wall, and a few soldiers on guard were leaning against the wall with their spears, and their eyes were bleary.

"Great opportunity!" Yu Qing said overjoyed upon seeing this, "It will depend on the situation later, as long as the door is closed and opened, everyone will run to my death and fall behind is courting death."

Yu Qing handed the Modao in his hand to Li Shu, and bent forward with a sharp dagger in his hand. When he approached a night watch soldier, he covered his mouth and wiped his neck with a knife. The Korean soldier struggled a few times and remained silent.

Yu Qing put him on the ground slowly, and saw that no one around him woke up, and they were all still asleep.

After waving his hand to signal Li Shu and others to follow, Yu Qing went directly to the door to close the door. There was no new latch, but some sundries were used to block it. In fact, it was almost the same as nothing.

After clearing a road, Yu Qing led everyone out of Dubei Pass quickly, passing through the sleeping Goryeo soldiers one by one, and ran out of Dubei Pass.

At this time, a soldier accidentally tripped over a weapon and fell directly to the ground. His hand still slapped a sleeping Goryeo soldier.

The Goryeo soldier was awakened suddenly, and he met the Daxia soldier's eyes, both of them were stunned.

The Daxia soldiers hurriedly continued to run out, only then did the Goryeo soldiers realize that the enemy was about to run away.

"It's not good, the Daxia people are going to run away!"

"Wake up, ah!" Before he could finish shouting, he was cut to the ground with a knife.

But at this moment, most of the Goryeo soldiers were awakened, and they all saw the Daxia soldiers shuttling through the city gate.

Hearing the movement behind, Yu Qing knew that he and others had been discovered, but he never expected to be discovered so early.

"Run!" Yu Qing yelled and ran as fast as he could, and everyone followed behind.

The Korean soldiers could not catch up with these fleeing people, and gradually disappeared.

Helian Zhonglin was awakened by the sound of the gong, and hurriedly led the cavalry from the south gate to the north gate, only to see several corpses of his own soldiers beside the blazing fire.

"Who can explain to me what's going on?" Helian Zhonglin asked, suppressing his anger.

At this time, a man with the appearance of an officer came out, "Report to the general, there is an enemy who wants to sneak out through the north gate, and we discovered it."

"What about people?"

"Run away!" the man said tremblingly, "there are not many, about a hundred people, but each of them is a strong soldier, and we can't stop them and catch up."

Helian Zhonglin took a deep breath and said, "Take him down and punish him according to military regulations!"

Looking at the darkness in the distance, Helian Zhonglin was in a bad mood. He deliberately chose elite soldiers to guard the south gate and wait for Yu Qing to come to the door. Unexpectedly, the other party went the other way and ran directly from the north gate. He just didn't know Is there Yu Qing among the runners?

At this time, a group of Goryeo soldiers dragged in the bodies of several Daxia soldiers from outside the pass, "General, two Daxia soldiers were chopped down by us!"

Helian Zhonglin waved his hand indifferently and didn't say anything.

A few Goryeo soldiers began to grope around the Daxia soldiers directly under the eyes of everyone. This is their habit. After the battle, they will see if the enemy has any spoils worth searching for.

"Ah!" A cry of exclamation attracted everyone's attention, and Helian Zhonglin also frowned and looked over, when did he have such panicked soldiers under him.

Unexpectedly, the Korean soldier found a small package directly from the corpse, and when he opened it, there were gold and silver ingots.

Everyone was stunned. Didn't expect ordinary Daxia soldiers to have so many trophies?
Helian Zhonglin stared at Yuan Bao and walked over.

"General!" The soldier cried in his heart. His own general came, and he might not be able to keep the spoils.

The soldier gritted his teeth cruelly and handed the package to Helian Zhonglin. He was not polite, so he took it over and looked at it, yes, it was true!
Then Helian Zhonglin used his weapon to pull the corpse in front of him back and forth. Yes, it was an ordinary soldier. When did soldiers have so much money?

"Is there any silver in the corpses that were restrained during the day?" Helian Zhonglin looked around and asked, unexpectedly shaking his head.

At this time, small packages were found from the other corpses, and they were placed in front of Helian Zhonglin without the slightest hesitation. The pile of money like a hill made everyone dizzy.

Helian Zhonglin thought for a moment and exclaimed in his heart that it was bad, Yu Qing must have led someone away just now. He was afraid that the money would be taken away from one person, so he divided it into portions and everyone took some.

Throwing the package in his hand on the ground, Helian Zhonglin said blankly, "Whoever it is, come and get it yourself!"

Helian Zhonglin still didn't give up, so he asked people to guard the gate and took a team of cavalry out to look for Yu Qing.

At this time, Yu Qing and others were in a small forest not far from Dubeiguan. Everyone's legs felt like lead and they could not walk.

"Okay, let's rest here."
