The sound of noisy footsteps stepping on the ground is no different from urging, Zhou Wenyu licked his chapped lips, whether it is life or death is now the most critical moment, if the other party rushes up regardless of it, then they can only fight to the death, and everything can only be left to fate.

However, the chaotic footsteps in the darkness became smaller and smaller, and Zhou Wenyu breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the bluff just now had worked.

In this way, they are safe at least for the time being before dawn, and not having to work hard right away is the best Zhou Wenyu can do.

Just when everyone was nervous, someone in front of them suddenly whispered tentatively:

"Is it General Guo Er's team? Is it General Guo Er's team?"

Zhou Wenyu was stunned for a moment, this Second General Guo was obviously referring to Guo Youming.

There were people in the army who were familiar with Guo Youming, and they immediately whispered to Zhou Wenyu:

"In the army, in order to distinguish between the soldiers and the soldiers, they all call General Guo the second general, this, this doesn't seem to be a horse bandit!"

Zhou Wenyu nodded to show that he was clear, he groaned for a while, and then asked:

"General Guo is Guo Ziyi?"

"That's right, exactly!"

"So, it's General Guo who came to find his brother?"

"Roughly so!"

"Send someone over to contact us, if that's the case, we've really escaped!"

To tell the truth, Zhou Wenyu's mood at this time is complicated, he doesn't know if Guo Ziyi will accept himself because of Guo Youming, if the other party is an enemy of the Shenwu Army and hates anyone who was born in the Shenwu Army, then today's so-called escape, who knows if it is out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's mouth?

At the critical moment, Guo Youming came back, and at the same time, he brought back bad news, all the grain stored in the cellar was transferred, and not even half of it was left.

He was shocked by the rapid change in the situation, and he didn't expect that someone would really chase him before dawn.

Guo Youming didn't say this in front of everyone, but only whispered a few words in a concise and concise voice that both of them heard, clarifying the situation, and then asked worriedly:

"This is, is this a horse bandit chasing after him again?"

"No, they're looking for General Guo Er!"

"Guo, Second General Guo?"

This answer was much beyond Guo Youming's expectations, Zhou Wenyu pointed to the darkness in the void, and said with some teasing:

"Listen!"

Sure enough, General Guo Er's voice was intermittent, and it was obvious that the people on the opposite side were all Han people in the dark, not the local horse bandits.

"I have already sent someone to connect, if the other party is really the person sent by Brother Ling, I will also be considered a successful retirement!"

"What's the matter, Brother Zhou, is this leaving?"

The two have fought side by side, and Guo Youming has unconsciously regarded it as his own robe, although this seems contradictory, but it is not strange in a complex mood. Besides, he felt that Zhou Wenyu was a general, and if he could accept this person, it would be worth the trip to be a prisoner.

The thought of the word "prisoner" is like a sharp dagger pierced into the chest, and after such a humiliating experience, I am afraid that I will only become the object of ridicule of opponents in the army, and become a drag on my brother.

On the road before, he had imagined countless times how his brother would treat his captured brother, maybe he would scold the blame, maybe he would rebuke with disdain, but he didn't expect that he would be able to return to find himself after the team withdrew.

Obviously, after they left the barracks of the Shenwu Army, Guo Ziyi got the news and reacted in time.

After a period of sour nose and hot eyes, Guo Youming quickly returned to normal, and said to the silent Zhou Wenyu:

"What else is Brother Zhou considering? In the Shenwu Army, it's just that you have made a mere team, if you get to the Prince Army, I can guarantee that at least, at least it will be no problem to lead at least one battalion of soldiers!"

The one who can lead a battalion of soldiers is the captain, which is a luxury for ordinary Qiu Ba to even think about it.

However, Zhou Wenyu was obviously unmoved and did not respond as expected.

Guo Wenyu was a little anxious, he really couldn't guess the deepest thoughts in this guy's heart, why was he willing to be a team leader with such ability?

The team is only a little stronger than ordinary soldiers, if you go into battle and work hard, even if you die, you will not get the grace of the court, you will only have to pay a few dollars like all Qiu Ba, and you will be exempted from a few years of rent, that's all.

But as a school captain, it is different, when you are alive, the court will have a reward, and when you die, you will have an additional pension for the officials.

No matter how you think about it, anyone who has a little bit of fame will make a suitable choice, but he didn't think about it, can the court behind the Shenwu Army and the small court behind the so-called "prince" be the same day?

Under his repeated questioning, Zhou Wenyu had to sternly refuse.

Guo Youming was disappointed,

"It's back, it's back......"

The soldiers shouted excitedly, and it was a good sign that the people who had been sent out to join the joints had returned safely.

Not only that, but he also brought back a person, who was Guo Ziyi's guard captain.

After meeting Guo Youming, the other party was obviously very excited, he didn't expect that General Guo Er would be able to escape from the Shenwu Army safely, and finally lived up to General Guo's risk to send troops to respond.

"The general is thinking about the second general, it's really Amitabha Buddha to be able to get out of danger!"

Guo Youming was also very excited, it was one thing to guess before, but now it is another thing to see it in earnest.

"But General Chen?"

This person is Guo Ziyi's guard captain, Cheng Xiaojie.

"I'm ashamed of my brother and the prince! When I sent out the army, I led tens of thousands of troops, and when I came back, I only had these hundreds of people left......

Cheng Xiaojie caught up in a few steps, and although he was wearing bulky armor, he still hugged him and comforted:

"Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, as long as people live, there will be a day when they will turn over in shame! The prince and the general are waiting for the second general to go back!"

Only then did Guo Youming remember to greet him:

"Are the prince and his brother well?"

What he fears most now is that someone will take advantage of his defeat to attack his brother, and if the prince can't withstand the pressure, his brother may eventually lose power. When that happens, it's all very slim.

"Don't worry, the prince and the general are fine, everyone's morale is very strong, and they have taken the initiative to ask for battle, to avenge the second general, now it's okay, the second general will return safely......"

Speaking of this, Cheng Xiaojie paused, and his eyes fell on Zhou Wenyu beside Guo Youming.

This man has a very unique temperament that makes him pay great attention.

When Guo Youming saw this, he introduced him to Cheng Xiaojie.

"This is Brother Zhou, the talent I found on the way back from escaping back is worthy of leading an army!"
