The General Is As Urgent As Law

Originally, he was in front of Wei Yuanting, so it was inconvenient for Jiang to say anything, Wei Yuanting's figure disappeared after a while, and Jiang also got on his horse and followed Xue Ziqin.He was still too sleepy to keep his eyes open before, but now he was so restless, watching Xue Ziqin walking forward with a blank expression beside him, something came to his mouth several times, but he swallowed it back.

He observed Xue Ziqin's face, except for the gloom that flashed past when he heard Hanzhou's fall, there was no unnecessary expression after that.He didn't know whether Xue Ziqin was in a hurry or not, but he was very anxious now.

After marching with the army for a while, Jiang finally couldn't hold back and asked, "General, Hanzhou..."

Xue Ziqin frowned: "I know."

"The general doesn't care about them?" For a moment, he couldn't wait to ask whether he could or should not say this.

Jiang also needed Xue Ziqin's stance now.

After being in the barracks, on the battlefield, and coming to Qinguan to support his allies, after all these things, he unconsciously had expectations for Xue Ziqin.That is their general, invincible and omnipotent.In this kind of relationship, all expectations are subconsciously placed on Xue Ziqin. Now that Wei Lin's life and death are unknown, the first answer he wants to get is whether their general will draw their swords against each other for their lives.

But Xue Ziqin didn't speak.

Surrounded by Wei Yuanting's people, Xue Ziqin's people followed behind him, in other words, he is now under Wei Yuanting's surveillance.

Jiang also didn't understand.Faced with Xue Ziqin's attitude, he became even more anxious, and simply opened his mouth and asked, "Whether it's for my brothers or not, they are all your soldiers. Do you ignore them?"

Xue Ziqin raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang Ye who was beside him. His eyes were so complicated that Jiang couldn't read them.In other words, the current Jiang Ye has lost the ability to think. He can't wait to follow Xue Ziqin back to Hanzhou and rescue Wei Lin.But even so, Xue Ziqin still needed an order.

"Shut up and go back to Xiangcheng with me first," Xue Ziqin said.

"General! You can't leave him alone!" Jiang Ye shouted at him, and there seemed to be some pleading in his voice, hoping that Xue Ziqin could lead his troops back to Hanzhou as he thought.

Xue Ziqin shook his head, sighed again, and walked a long way before slowly saying to Jiang Ye: "I can understand your feelings, but there is nothing I can do now."

After finally hearing Xue Ziqin's answer, Jiang also responded immediately: "Didn't the general take us with 500 people and beat the Wuqu people away? How could the general be powerless?!"

"Don't be so naive, do you think that whoever has a hard fist in this world will belong to him?" Xue Ziqin scolded angrily, "Jiang Ye, obeying military orders is the principle. If the emperor wants me to go back to Xiangcheng, I will definitely go back. Min Qiu After following me for so many years, Hanzhou fell, and he was among them, even if he was about to die in the hands of the enemy in the next moment, I would go back and wait for the next opportunity to avenge him."

Xue Ziqin's voice became smaller and smaller, but the words were clear, especially the word "revenge", as if the situation was as he said now, he gritted his teeth.

For a moment, various emotions were twisted in Jiang Ye's heart.He stared deeply at Xue Ziqin for a long time, as if the bumps on the horse's back had disappeared, he just looked at Xue Ziqin with surprise and disappointment in his eyes.

"I understand the truth." Jiang Ye said word by word, "But what's the use of revenge when someone is dead?"

"You're a coward!"

After saying this, Jiang Ye suddenly pulled the rein, and the horse stopped obediently.Xue Ziqin was still walking, but he looked back at Jiang Ye.I saw Jiang also saluted him in a polite manner, then turned his horse's head, waved his whip, and ran in the opposite direction to the main force: "Drive!"

Looking at Jiang Ye's back, Xue Ziqin didn't know whether to stop him or not.

But he knew that if he were himself a few years ago, he would probably be the same as him. The moment he heard the news, he would rush over with his people.But now, he can only follow the emperor's wishes and return to Xiangcheng.

The more you are in a high position, the more you will know that the life of a person is never his own.

Guo Linchong kept watching from the side, not daring to speak, until Jiang Ye drove away, then he stepped forward slightly: "General, do you need to chase him back?"

Xue Ziqin shook his head: "It's up to him. He alone can't make any waves. I hope he knows what it means to retreat in spite of difficulties."

"Isn't the general worried about Min Qiu?"

"He is a lieutenant general after all. Sui Guo won't take advantage of it? He won't kill him."

Jia Da was seriously injured, Jia Er had to take care of him, and he was the only one he could rely on. Jiang Ye didn't have any plans in his mind, and the only thought in his mind was to save Wei Lin.

Jiang also ran all the way towards the city gate, and after leaving the city gate, he reached the border.

"Brother, where is Yan Hangu going?" He hurriedly asked the gate guard.

Seeing that he was wearing military uniform, the guard didn't speak, and raised his hand to point him in the direction.Jiang didn't have time to say thanks, so he drove his horse in the direction the man pointed.

Walking along the road to Yanhan Valley along the border is much closer than when they went around to the hinterland of Shangzhou to avoid the enemy's eyes and ears.Along the way, except for eating and sleeping, he was almost on his way. There was not much dry food left with him. Fortunately, Xue Ziqin asked someone to go to Yuzhou to get some dry food and distribute it to them, and Jiang also ate it again. If there is less gain, otherwise it will definitely not be able to hold on at this time.

Running like this, Jiang also arrived at Yanhan Valley six days later.

Yan Hangu's garrison, that is, Xue Ziqin's team is no longer here, so the gate of Yanzhou is still under the jurisdiction of the prefect of Yanzhou.There was no one in Yanhan Valley, and Jiang also slept there.Fortunately, the battlefield was cleaned up thoroughly after the war, and those corpses had already been dragged together and burned. Otherwise, Jiang would have slept with a pile of dead bodies at this time, and he might not have slept well.

Yue Mo was too tired from the journey a few days ago, so he slept through the night as soon as he fell asleep.Jiang also tied the horse, and based on his memory, he found the place where he and Xue Ziqin swam to the south of Hanzhou City.He was also anxious, but Jiang didn't care whether he knew how to swim or not. Just like last time, he found a slightly thick log, hugged it and went into the river.

He still remembered that Wei Lin had explained to him that from Yanhan Valley to Hanzhou, it was downstream, and even if he didn't move, he would be washed to Hanzhou by the current.It may take a little more effort to rush to Hanzhou just by the current. Jiang also started to swing his legs non-stop after entering the water. According to the way Wei Lin taught him before, it took a lot of time to successfully swim to the place where he once was. A place to go ashore.

The night was misty, and the impressions in his memory were blurred. Jiang also recalled it over and over again, and finally found the place where Xue Ziqin was on the wall on the south side of Hanzhou City.

Jiang also looked hard under the moonlight and saw the depression on the wall.

But the depression is so tiny that it may be difficult to get a foothold.Seeing that he was within walking distance, but was blocked by the thick city wall, Jiang was impatient and helpless. He couldn't think of other ideas for a while, but the matter was imminent and there was no need to delay.

In the end, Jiang also simply smashed the jar, and grabbed the hollow with his hands.The first place is so high that you have to jump up to barely reach it. Jiang tried several times, but he was only able to grasp it with his fingers. However, his fingers were not strong enough.

At this time, Jiang Ye's stubborn temper came up, and he would never give up until he did it.He jumped up again, his fingers clinging tightly to the depression, supporting the weight of his whole body, his fingers were so hard that they hurt, but he didn't let go, he insisted on hanging on the wall.

The good start gave Jiang Ye some confidence.In the past two months in the military camp, he has not grown without growth. He has experienced so many things and been tortured by Xue Ziqin for so long. Among other things, he must have resilience.Seeing that it could be hung on the wall, Jiang also reached out to reach the depression on it.Fortunately, the scout was not a pervert like Xue Ziqin back then, and the depressions were not far apart, barely within reach.His feet were pressed against the gap between the bricks of the city wall, very reluctantly, as long as he was not paying attention, he would fall off immediately.At this moment, he stretched out his hand to reach the depression, and then drew his legs up, trying to step on the place where his hand was grabbing earlier.This process is very painful, let go of one hand and one foot, and the whole person hangs with only the strength of one hand.But he absolutely didn't want to fall off. For things like climbing a wall, he had to do it all over again. As his physical strength declined, the difficulty would only increase.

When Jiang also climbed halfway up, his fingers were congested with blood and showed a terrible red color due to excessive force. Although he couldn't see clearly at night, he could feel that his fingers were swollen and weak, as if they were not his own. .The knuckles rubbed against the city wall, and they were already broken, bleeding continuously.

Because of the pain, Jiang Ye's subconscious kept calling to let go of his hand, and suddenly he couldn't grasp it.Jiang also came back to his senses immediately, let go of one hand, pulled out the knife he was carrying with him from his waist, and slammed it into the crack of the brick.The city walls of Hanzhou City hadn't been repaired for a long time, and the knife was inserted into the crack of the brick immediately. Jiang also held the handle of the knife, and finally heaved a sigh of relief. If he could use a knife, he might be able to go up quickly.

He didn't know how long this job took. Anyway, when he got to the tower, Jiang Ye's hands were covered in blood, which looked like serious injuries.But he knows that it's just that the flesh at the joints has been ground, it's not a big deal, but it's definitely not going to work for a while.

Coincidentally, Jiang also didn't know when there would be patrols on the top and when there would be no patrols. He came up with the idea of ​​killing anyone, but there was no one on the tower.

This was convenient for Jiang Ye. Jiang Ye turned around and wanted to go down the tower from the other side, but when he got to the side, he felt that something was wrong.

Although he had already taken off his armor before entering the water, he was still wearing Xuan Guo's attire, so if he went in like this, anyone who met him would know that he was a foreigner, which might not be good.Jiang Ye thought about it for a while, then hid in the nearby observation tower, waiting for someone to come over.

After waiting for a while, Jiang Ye heard footsteps.

He knew that it would take one kill to ensure that they could not notify others.Jiang also listened carefully to the sound of footsteps, and he could vaguely distinguish two people. He held his breath and was very nervous, holding a knife tightly in his hand, just waiting for someone to come over.

He clings to the wall of the watchtower, and the two come from the other direction, just waiting for them to pass.

After the previous enemy attack, the soldiers of Sui State became a lot more nervous, and they were silent at the moment, just walking, holding torches in their hands.

The opportunity is only for a moment, and if he misses it, he will die.

Jiang thought so too, and the knife in his hand had been raised to his neck.The footsteps were getting closer and closer, he stuck to the wall tightly, and then saw the two people passing by.The torch was in the hands of someone who was farther away from the river, but they didn't even shine it on him, and the two of them just walked straight forward.

good chance!Jiang Ye thought to himself, and then stepped forward with a stride, stabbing one of the men in the neck with his knife, and slashing fiercely at the neck of the man next to him with the other hand like a hand knife.

Successful.

The two Sui soldiers instantly collapsed to the ground.

Jiang Ye moved quickly. He took off the clothes of the surviving soldier and put them on himself.Then he put a knife against his throat, and with the other hand he pinched the other man hard, choking him awake.

"Don't scream, or you will die too." He said coldly.

The man naturally felt the cold tip of the knife on his neck, and knew that if the man in front of him moved a little, he would wipe his neck. He looked at Jiang Ye in horror, not daring to nod or speak.

"Where are the prisoners of Xuanguo kept? Huh?"

"I, I don't know..."

"Say it?" Jiang Ye exerted a little force on his hand, and the tip of the knife cut the man's neck, bleeding out.

The pain from the neck made the man tremble with fright: "I said, I said, I will be locked in the prison..."

After getting the information he wanted, Jiang also thrust the knife deep into his throat without even thinking about it. The man wanted to say something, but when he opened his mouth, blood gushed out.

Jiang also drew out his knife, wiped the blood from the blade on the corpse, then quickly turned around and climbed down the city wall, successfully entering Hanzhou City.
