I've been reborn, who still wants to be a cowardly little white flower?

Jiang Yuan said nothing afterwards. He left the village and walked a little forward. What he saw were broken walls and ruins all over the ground.

In the first village, they arrested people and searched their belongings.

In the second village, they killed everyone in the two villages and searched their belongings.

The third village, perhaps after receiving some news and seeing tools such as hoes next to the charred corpses on the ground, thought that a resistance had been organized, so they killed people and burned the entire village.

Standing in the middle of the village, waiting for the soldiers to check the entire village, as expected, the entire village was burned down.

"General, this fire must have started a few days ago. It hasn't rained in the past few days, and these burn marks are already cold."

Without Li Shan's explanation, Xie Yunxiao had already touched the house and the burnt wood around him and had the answer in his mind.

"Set up camp outside the village. Tomorrow morning, search around the three villages to see if you can find any survivors."

"Yes."

These three villages should have been beautiful with mountains and rivers. They are a bit far from the town, but there is a stream every few miles on one side and a large forest on the other side.

These three quiet villages in the midst of a bustling city should have been leading a peaceful life.

The people in the first two villages did not have time to escape, but in the last village, perhaps some of the villagers who escaped hid in the woods.

A bonfire was lit outside the village, and Jiang Yuan sat on a rock. In the summer in the south, the night was not too cold, but it was cool.

He held a piece of bread in one hand, roasted it over the fire, broke it apart, put it in his mouth, and chewed it with an expressionless face.

After Xie Yunxiao finished arranging things, he turned around and saw the murderous intent in Jiang Yuan's eyes under his calm face.

The next morning, thousands of soldiers were divided into several teams and went into the woods to search for survivors.

Jiang Yuan and Xie Yunxiao were also among them, but Jiang Yuan had not said a word since yesterday.

After searching for most of the day, no trace of survivors was found.

After gathering at the assembly point, Xie Yunxiao thought for a moment and said to Li Shan, "Let's not look for it anymore. Let's set off as soon as possible after dinner.

If we don't find anyone, there may be no survivors, or they may be hiding very well. We still have two days to go to Dongshan County. The situation in the town ahead is not optimistic either. We must be vigilant behind us."

"Yes."

While searching the mountain, some soldiers picked edible fruits in the woods and caught pheasants and rabbits. They quickly cleaned them up and had a tasteless barbecue.

"A Yuan, are you okay?" Xie Yunxiao walked to Jiang Yuan worriedly.

Jiang Yuan was tidying up his things and combing the horse's hair. He nodded at Xie Yunxiao without saying anything.

After climbing onto the horse, the horse stepped on the ground from time to time. Jiang Yuan still had a blank expression on his face. He held the reins in one hand and the Buddhist beads wrapped around his wrist in the other.

After a day's journey by fast horse, they arrived at the town. It was already night, and in the darkness, the city wall not far away was dimly visible.

The city gate was closed and there were shadows swaying on the city wall.

There were thousands of them riding fast, and the people on the city wall had obviously heard the noise. Torches were lit one by one, and the top of the city wall became clearer and clearer.

However, Jiang Yuan and the others were still in the dark. They knew someone was coming, but they couldn’t see clearly.

The people on the city wall were obviously a little panicked, and the torches were moving quickly and continuously.

"General, is he one of ours or a rebel?" Li Shan asked.

Xie Yunxiao looked at the reaction on the city wall and said with certainty, "Rebels. Our soldiers have rules even when defending the city. It is impossible for them to be in this state."

"But, now is an extraordinary period, so it is only right to strengthen the defense on the city wall."

"Look at them, they are like headless flies, how can they be well-trained soldiers?"

"Then, what to do?"

Xie Yunxiao was silent for a while, "Set up camp here."

It's too dark now. It would be disadvantageous to attack rashly.

There are archers on the city wall, and it is difficult to see clearly and more likely to get hurt. The people inside dare not come out easily. Setting up camp on the spot is the safest option for them.

Li Shan talked to the soldiers around him, and everyone dismounted. They didn't dare to light torches, so they could only set up tents on the spot and rest where they changed shifts.

Jiang Yuan stood under a tree, staring at the city wall not far away.

Half an hour later, Xie Yunxiao walked to Jiang Yuan and said, "They are not moving as fast as before." Jiang Yuan spoke, sounding a little eerie.

Xie Yunxiao put his hands behind his back, holding a long sword in his hand, "Well, wait a minute."

After another hour, the torches on the city wall were basically fixed in one place and did not move.

Jiang Yuan stood up, holding his sword. Xie Yunxiao appeared beside him, and Li Shan was also there. "General, Miss, be careful."

The two men, along with a dozen soldiers also dressed in black, quietly made a large circle and cautiously approached the city wall.

Lurking under the city wall, the situation above can be seen much more clearly. This is a small town, the city wall is not high, and there are holes in many places.

The three soldiers lay in a relatively large hole and looked inside. The city was also quiet. It was late at night, and everyone, whether they should sleep or not, was probably asleep.

Xie Yunxiao took the rope off his shoulder, made a loop, and found a place without torches under the city wall. He swung the rope, and the rope flew up, and the loop just happened to catch the protruding stone bricks on the city wall.

I pulled it and it’s okay.

Jiang Yuan took the rope and pulled it. Xie Yunxiao whispered, "The wall here is not very strong, be careful."

Jiang Yuan nodded silently, put the sword on his waist, held the rope with one hand, stepped back a dozen steps, took a running start, stepped lightly on the city wall with his toes, held the rope with his hand, and was as nimble as a swallow. In a few moves, he had already flipped over the city wall.

It was so quiet in the night that not a single sound was heard.

Not only the soldiers on the side, but even Xie Yunxiao were stunned. How could he be as light as a swallow, without any sound, and climb over the city wall so easily?

The rope in front of them seemed to be an insult to them. There was every reason to believe that she could climb up even without the rope. This was just to save their face.

During the dozen seconds when the people below were controlled, Jiang Yuan, who had climbed onto the city wall, had already quietly eliminated two people.

He climbed up the city wall from the darkness, then rolled, hiding himself in the dark shadows.

About ten steps ahead, there was a torch, and in front of the torch stood a dozing rebel.

At this time, you can tell that they are traitors because of their clothes.

The man held a spear in his hand and nodded his head from time to time. Suddenly his mouth was covered, and then there was a crisp sound of broken bones.

Jiang Yuan silently covered his mouth, twisted his neck, took the spear, gently leaned the spear against the wall, and then gently placed the person on the ground. In five seconds, he completed a set of smooth movements.
